My girlfriend is from 1949

Chapter 113 First Test: No Secrets Left? (First Update, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

When Director Zheng heard the question, a look of reminiscence appeared on his face.

I glanced at the distance the drone had traveled back to base, but there was nothing else to do while I waited.

He smiled and said, "I also know that this 'Fate Brings Us Together' Inn is located in the former French Concession and is an old building constructed during the Qing Dynasty."

It was built as an inn for lodging from the very beginning.

The building is over a hundred years old.

However, twelve years ago, a sudden fire burned down the inn.

The innkeeper has been in business for several generations and has made a lot of money over the past century.

Therefore, it was decided to rebuild on the original site.

Just then, the Battle of Shanghai broke out, and the Chinese-controlled area was occupied by the Japanese.

The concessions became havens from the ravages of war.

Not only people from the Chinese-speaking areas, but people from other places also fled to Shanghai.

In a short time, a large number of refugees poured into the concession.

As a result, there were too many people and not enough houses to live in.

Even a tiny pavilion room was crammed with seven people.

Dozens of people live in a small building!

This is what was later referred to as the seventy-two tenants.

The owner of the "Youyuanlai" inn saw this trend and immediately recognized the business opportunity.

They quickly rebuilt a three-story hotel on the original site.

The first and second floors originally had ten rooms in a row, so each floor had twenty rooms.

As a result, in order to accommodate more people, the boss insisted on dividing the space into twenty rooms horizontally, turning one floor into forty rooms.

The third floor, as originally designed, was converted into suites.

Those who fled from other places and had a little wealth would rent the suites on the third floor for a long period of time.

The rooms on the first and second floors are rented to ordinary travelers.

There are also ten-person rooms available for rent to those who have fled here, have little money, and can't even find cheap accommodation.

Although the inn is not as large as those big hotels, it only has three floors.

However, during the years of the War of Resistance against Japan, they made a fortune.

It was only after Japan surrendered that many people returned to their hometowns, and the inn's business declined.

A hint of reminiscence flashed in Director Zheng's eyes: "Back when the Shanghai intelligence station was being rebuilt, I lived here for a month!"

The Shanghai intelligence station was destroyed by the Special Higher Police, resulting in the sacrifice of many comrades.

However, Shanghai's value is extremely important and it cannot be left as a vacuum.

Therefore, he was given a critical mission and came to Shanghai to rebuild the intelligence station.

In order to conceal his identity and find out the situation in Shanghai.

The frequent comings and goings of people at the inn make it a good place to conceal one's whereabouts.

He rented a room at the inn as a businessman and stayed there for a month.

As an experienced intelligence officer, it is natural to understand the living environment.

In the future, when their whereabouts are exposed and the Special Higher Police come to arrest them, they will know where to escape to.

"So when hiding, for safety reasons, people usually choose the innermost room."

Few people pass by, so any disturbance can be detected in time.

When the drone approached, it captured the entire inn in its footage.

Didn't you notice that the two rooms at the very back on the left are vacant?

Therefore, the curtains are open.

However, the windows of the two innermost rooms on the right were locked.

Moreover, the curtains were drawn tightly shut.

It was to prevent anyone on the other side from seeing it, or even being sniped by a gunman.

Therefore, it can be basically concluded that the traitor is hiding there!

Wang Hai frowned and said with frustration, "It's a pity I couldn't get a picture of which room it was in. I turned on the thermal imaging, but it was blocked by the walls and glass."

Now, he can skillfully operate every function of the drone.

After confirming the third floor, thermal imaging scanning was immediately initiated.

They wanted to find out which floor the traitor was hiding on.

Unfortunately, it was blocked by glass, curtains, and walls, so it could not be detected.

"The second to last one!"

Director Zheng's lips curled up, revealing a confident smile.

Without waiting to be asked, he took the initiative to explain.

"Although the curtains in the last two rooms were tightly closed."

However, since Liu San'er was alone, he could only enter through one door.

I estimated the approximate time Liu San'er entered the room.

When the door is opened, the wind from outside blows in, and the curtains sway gently.

Although the difference is small, it can be seen with careful observation.

Therefore, I'm 90% certain that the traitor is on the third floor, in the second-to-last room.

His voice was firm, almost as if he was absolutely certain.

Fortunately, the hotel used cheap fabric for the curtains in order to save money.

The material is very light, and the airflow generated when the door is opened and closed can make it sway slightly.

If it were a wealthy person's curtains, you wouldn't even notice the slight fluctuation in airflow when the door is opened.

At the same time, Director Zheng gained a deeper understanding of the power of drones.

Under such tight security, it would have been impossible to track them successfully.

However, drones hover at an altitude of 200 meters, making them difficult to detect with the naked eye.

Even if it were discovered, who would have thought it was an aircraft?

Moreover, at a height of over 200 meters, when looking down at the ground, it's impossible to see a person's appearance clearly.

Even with excellent eyesight, at distances exceeding thirty meters, one can only make out the outline of a person.

Therefore, at a height of 200 meters, it is impossible to spot a person in a crowd with the naked eye.

However, with the help of modern technology, the impossible has become possible!

With a high-resolution camera, facial features can be clearly captured even at a distance of 500 meters.

There's no need to get close at all; simply hovering high in the air is enough to see Liu San'er deliberately circling around.

Xiong Baitao's meticulously planned and foolproof anti-tracking schemes.

It looks so ridiculous under the surveillance of drones.

While Liu San'er was still gloating, thinking that no one could follow him.

I never would have guessed that I had been under someone else's surveillance all along.

Ugh~.

With a deep, rumbling sound of propellers, the drone descended vertically from overhead.

Director Zheng looked at the small and exquisite drone and couldn't help but sigh with admiration.

"This is still the civilian version. How powerful would the military version be?"

Is it really as Comrade Qingzhu said, that it can fly two thousand kilometers?

Are there really man-made satellites that can be launched into space?

Is it possible to photograph military bases from outside the atmosphere?

In the future, will there still be any secrets?

Director Zheng experienced the terror of future technology firsthand when he used a drone for the first time.

I became even more curious about the satellites that were mentioned during casual conversation.

According to Lin Wan, not only can they film military bases, but they can also track down the locations of warships and troops.

It would be very difficult to set up a trap and wait for the enemy to walk into it.

They might be detected by satellites while the main force is moving.

Just like foreign spy satellites, every August and September, they capture images of unidentified armed groups of tens of millions of people suddenly appearing in our country.

Half a month later, they all mysteriously disappeared again, becoming a mystery that baffled foreigners!

Ugh~.

The drone landed steadily, and Wang Hai skillfully packed it up.

"Sir, the drone has been safely recovered; nothing was missing!"

Director Zheng nodded and ordered into the walkie-talkie, "Retreat!"
