Courtyard House: Reborn in the 1940s, Starting with Killing Japanese Devils

Minister Ke Gong pondered for a moment and quickly issued an instruction: "Immediately select a capable and shrewd liaison officer to take a radio from the base area to the mountain city to make contact with Comrade Guying."

In addition, a telegram was sent to the underground party organization in the mountain city, informing them that the Holy Land had appointed Comrade Guying to directly lead the work of the underground party in the mountain city, and that all members must unconditionally obey Comrade Guying's command, and no one was allowed to disobey.

Furthermore, conduct a thorough investigation into Zheng Yaoxian… to confirm whether he is a comrade of our Party who has infiltrated the Kuomintang under the codename "Kite."

The secretary quickly jotted down the instructions and nodded in response, "Understood, sir!"

……

After careful screening by Minister Kegong, the final selected liaison officer was Gu Yufei—she was not only outstanding in ability, but also possessed the special skill of "danger prediction".

The reason for choosing her was that the best candidate had to be a comrade who had already infiltrated the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Gu Yufei joined our party during her time at military academy and is currently the section chief of the Telecommunications Department of the Military Intelligence Bureau. Her apparent identity is that of a wealthy young lady from a well-off family, and her code name is "Nine of Hearts".

Shortly afterward, the confidential secretary solemnly handed a top-secret document to Minister Ke Gong: "Reporting to the leader, according to the investigation results, in 1932, the Soviet Area Political Department did indeed send a group of outstanding comrades to infiltrate the Kuomintang."

Most of these comrades have already sacrificed their lives, and the only token that can prove their identity is a sapphire ring.

The code name "Kite" did exist, and it corresponded to a comrade who had infiltrated the core department of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

But the only person who knew 'Kite's' true identity was his personal liaison, Lu Hanqing.

Minister Ke Gong took the document, his brows furrowed, and said in a deep voice, "Immediately send a radio message to Comrade Lu Hanqing to verify the true identity of 'Kite' and confirm whether he is Zheng Yaoxian."

If the verification is correct, we will send someone to Shancheng to assist Zheng Yaoxian in his work; if not…”

He narrowed his eyes, a hint of coldness flashing across them, and then ordered Comrade Guying to eliminate Zheng Yaoxian.

"Understood, sir!" The confidential secretary nodded in response, then turned and hurriedly left.

Minister Ke stared at the pitch-black night outside the window, silently praying: hoping that Zheng Yaoxian was "Kite". The night wind blew into the room through the window, bringing a chill.

……

The basement of Huichuntang in Chongqing, a mountain city.

Lu Hanqing carefully turned on the radio and meticulously adjusted the frequency, his fingers trembling slightly.

A moment later, an encrypted telegram arrived, entirely in Morse code. Lu Hanqing frowned and quickly began decoding it.

The telegram read: "Reply immediately to confirm the true identity of 'Kite.' — Sacred Land of Northern Shaanxi"

Lu Hanqing took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes, then took out a matchbox, lit a match, and completely burned the decoded message.

After careful consideration, he finally sent a confirmation telegram back to the sacred site in northern Shaanxi.

L!

Lu Hanqing put on his headphones and rhythmically tapped the telegraph key with his right hand, sending out a string of Morse code: "Confirmed that 'Kite's' true identity is Zheng Yaoxian, 'Sixth Brother' of the Military Intelligence Bureau."

At the same time, inside the Military Intelligence Bureau's communications department, Gu Yufei was wearing headphones, intently monitoring radio signals on various frequency bands.

She was strikingly beautiful, with bright red lips and sharp, focused eyes that could detect even the slightest unusual signals.

Suddenly, a very faint Morse code sound quietly entered her ears. Gu Yufei's eyes sharpened instantly, and her fingers quickly wrote down the mysterious Morse code on the paper.

Then, she took out a dictionary and a codebook and carefully translated it word by word.

The translated telegram reads as follows: [Comrade Hongtao Jiu and Comrade Guying have arrived in Shancheng. The Holy Land has dispatched Comrade Guying to directly lead the underground Party organization in Shancheng. You will serve as their liaison, responsible for all matters related to the rendezvous. The rendezvous location is set at Kuanren Hospital, and the code word is "Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger, Pagoda suppresses the tortoise." This message originates from the Holy Land in Northern Shaanxi.]

After reading the telegram, Gu Yufei's heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

She immediately opened her desk drawer, took out a lighter, and lit the telegram, watching the paper gradually turn to ash in the flames. Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to calm down and pondered: Who exactly is this mysterious, solitary comrade?

Images of the suspects and related past events flashed through her mind. Suddenly, she remembered that Zheng Yaoxian, the sixth Japanese soldier, had escaped death in Beiping and was saved by a man named Zhao Heng.

This matter had already spread within the Military Intelligence Bureau, and Gu Yufei, as the head of the Telecommunications Section of the Military Intelligence Bureau's First Division, had naturally heard about it.

Zhao Heng's identity has always been ambiguous. Could he be Comrade Guying? It must be said that a woman's intuition is sometimes quite accurate, and Gu Yufei's guess is not without basis.

At two o'clock in the morning, at Zheng Yaoxian's home, Zhao Heng was receiving a telegram from the sacred land of northern Shaanxi on the radio. He frowned, focused on decoding, and then took out a dictionary to translate it word by word.

The telegram reads: "[The Nine of Hearts will act as your contact. The meeting place is Kuan Jen Hospital. The code word is 'Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger, Pagoda suppresses the turtle.'"

After reading the telegram, Zhao Heng took a deep breath, immediately turned off the radio, borrowed a lighter from Zheng Yaoxian, and lit the telegram, watching it quickly turn to ashes. "Who is the Nine of Hearts?" Zhao Heng asked Zheng Yaoxian.

Zheng Yaoxian pondered for a moment, a complex look flashing in his eyes, and said seriously, "Comrade Zhao Heng, you need to think of a reasonable reason to go to Kuanren Hospital."

"Just say you're sick," Zhao Heng said slowly, looking firmly at Zheng Yaoxian.

"What exactly is the illness?"

Zheng Yaoxian pressed further, "After all, it's a disguise, so it has to be made to look convincing and leave no loopholes."

"Based on my understanding of Dai Yunong, he will definitely suspect you. That man is always cunning and doesn't easily trust anyone." Zheng Yaoxian's analysis was very pertinent.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Heng said, "Then let's talk about stomach problems. Tomorrow I'll go to Kuanren Hospital to see a doctor in the gastroenterology department. When I get back, I'll take the prescription to the telecommunications office and chat with Gu Yufei, the most beautiful girl in the military unit."

In this way, within a day, the entire Military Intelligence Bureau will know about my stomach problems.

Clearly, he had already come up with a plan.

Moreover, based on his memories from his previous life, he already knew that Gu Yufei was a comrade of the underground party.

"Comrade Zheng Yaoxian, you must be careful of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS). As far as I know, your girlfriend, Cheng Zhen'er, has likely already been exposed."

Zhao Heng suddenly spoke, bringing this shocking news: "Gao Zhanlong, the head of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, has always been wary of you."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Yaoxian's expression immediately turned serious, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"Zhao Heng, I want Cheng Zhen'er to leave as soon as possible and get away from this troublesome place in the mountain city."

He said, "But Cheng Zhen'er is currently a communications officer in the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS). If I contact her directly, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the CBIS."

Zhao Heng nodded slowly, replying in a heavy tone, "I understand your concerns. After I take over the work of the underground party in Shancheng, I will find a suitable opportunity to arrange for Cheng Zhen'er's safe evacuation from Shancheng."
