Chapter 95
Kong Liqiang surveyed No. 1 Wenkangli in the dark. Seeing that the front and back doors were closed and the lights were on in the house, he naturally did not dare to go in rashly, nor did he dare to stay for a long time. He could only go home for a while and prepare to come again tomorrow.
At this moment, it was late at night. He called a rickshaw and wanted to go home directly, but his heart was unconscious. He seemed to remember something, so he asked the coachman to go around the business and go back. When he passed by the business, he saw that the business and the door was closed and the light inside was on. He quietly breathed a sigh of relief, just as he wished!
That's right, Kong Liqiang guessed on the way back that Zhuo Linan might have waited for him to come back in the business, so he deliberately came around. He guessed right, Zhuo Linan did not go home after get off work, but found an excuse and stayed in the business and waited for him.
When Zhuo Linan saw Kong Liqiang, he immediately rushed over, pulled his arm and blamed him: "You are finally back! Why are you so late? Is it okay?"
Kong Liqiang nodded with a smile and said lightly: "Do I seem to have something to do? But you, it's so late, why do you have to wait for me to come back!"
"I'm worried about you! Who can I wait for you if I don't wait?"
"Don't wait in the future. If I go home directly, wouldn't you wait in vain?"
"I know you'll come."
When Zhuo Linan said these words, his eyes did not leave Kong Liqiang. Her face was filled with joy, but because of concern, her eyes were wet and her eyebrows were affectionate. Kong Liqiang subconsciously avoided her eyes and said, "I didn't go well today, and I almost showed my sleep, but I was still very rewarding." While saying that, he turned around tiredly and sat on the chair.
Zhuo Linan followed him closely and asked nervously: "What's going on?"
So Kong Liqiang said the passage without reservation. Zhuo Linan did not interrupt and simply sat next to listen intently. Finally, Kong Liqiang said: "I suspect that Qiao Yingzi's mother is also a member of the Military Control Commission. I can't go to Wenkang Building anymore, otherwise I will easily be seen through my identity. What makes me unable to understand is that the strong man doesn't seem to know Qiao Yingzi's mother's identity."
Zhuo Linan said: "This is understandable. The Military Control Commission is similar to us. It is entirely possible not to know each other. What you said makes me doubt is why she rejects you? Why are you worried that you will abduct Qiao Yingzi to Japan? There is too much problem with this."
"You're talking about it, this is a mystery to be solved!"
"Liqiang, I have a little different idea from you."
"oh?"
"I might as well think about it the other way around. Qiao Yingzi's mother has experience working in Japan. Will she be instigated to become a Japanese spy?"
"Well! Your idea is very bold! I have thought so!"
Zhuo Linan lowered her head and pondered for a while, and said, "Although I have never seen Qiao Yingzi, from your description, I feel that Qiao Yingzi is not simple either. She kept saying that she had no shame to meet people and even wanted to commit suicide. So, what is the secret of her being hidden? Qiao Yingzi lives with her mother and should be safe at home. Could it be that she was bullied by a teacher with a human face and a beast in her heart at school?"
"It's possible! I thought so before."
"Me, I, too! You won't say a little different opinion and convince you. But! I think it's not that simple. As Qiao Yingzi's mother, no matter whether she is a member of the Military Control Commission or a Japanese spy, how could she know that her daughter was bullied but not fight back? She just wants to change schools? This is a question worthy of alertness. Also, I assume that Qiao Yingzi was bullied for love, so she has the idea of suicide, which means that she cares about this relationship very much. How could she accept you easily?"
"What does it mean to accept me?"
"You clearly said just now that it is unreasonable for her to invite you to visit his house! Have you ever thought that girls usually value feelings very much. Even if you save your life, they will never accept you easily. Could it be their trap? Step by step? What do they want to do? Has they discovered our identity long ago? Or have they had some intentions for you?"
As soon as Zhuo Linan said this, Kong Liqiang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He had to admit that Zhuo Linan was meticulous and had a comprehensive and profound vision of considering the problem. He immediately said: "You have made sense in your analysis!"
Zhuo Linan looked at him, paused for a while, comforted him, "No hurry, these are just my guesses. Liqiang, my opinion is like this. Since there is a lot of articles in it, then we might as well respond to changes in the same way, and suspend all activities to see what their subsequent reactions will be. At most, water can be covered by the soil and act according to the opportunity."
Kong Liqiang nodded and said, "You have already said everything in my heart."
"Oh? How do you say it?"
"After checking Wenkangli No. 1, I can be sure that it is the military commander's home. From the perspective of location and layout, it is a very important place for them. It is very suitable for receiving important people and convening meetings. In the current situation, our goal of the military commander to deal with the Japanese is the same. We cannot ruin others because of our intervention."
"You are very right! We will not make any mistakes because of us, otherwise we will be sorry for our brothers who fought against Japan. In fact, I was embarrassed to say just now that it is not necessarily a good thing for you to make friends with that Chen Laisheng, and it is easy to alarm the enemy. If it attracts suspicion from the Special High School, it will be troublesome."
"To be honest, I didn't think too much at that time. Fortunately, the Japanese's hands were not that long in the British Concession there. So I decided that I would not ask about the Military Control Commission again. You are right, we will not interfere with them."
"Have I said this?"
"Not important anymore! What is important at the moment is how to find out Huang Guiren, confirm the place where this traitor is in Shanghai, and understand Huang Guiren's purpose of coming to Shanghai as soon as possible."
"Well! Unfortunately, the letter I wrote to the newspaper anonymously has not responded to. It seems that our idea of using newspapers to create momentum will not be successful."
"I have thought about this. If the news of a traitor coming to Shanghai is not reported for more than three days, this matter should be considered a shame. I have analyzed the reason. Huang Guiren is a damn traitor in our eyes, but in the eyes of news media people, he is just an insignificant role."
"Not bad! Moreover, the truth has been covered up by our troops due to grievances. Even if those who make newspapers are full of justice and are bewitched by the Kuomintang, they will think that our troops are in internal strife, and they may have preconceived their beliefs and believe that Huang Guiren is abandoning the darkness and turning to the light!"
"Your analysis makes sense! Those media people and those knowledgeable people were deceived by Chiang Kai-shek, it is hard to say that they are ashamed to mention this matter! We are isolated and helpless. If we want the organization to know about Huang Guiren's coming to Shanghai, we can only use newspapers to go."
"What did you think of?"
"Publicate a missing person notice!"
