Chapter 751 Cooperation Sincerity
When Li Zhengxun was brought to the No. 76 Family Compound, Lin Hao finally let go of Lao Yang's possession.
"Hello Mr. Li, please sit down!" Lin Hao gestured to the stool opposite him.
As an old underground party member, I will not admit my identity casually regardless of whether the other party knows my identity or not.
So Li Zhengxun pretended to be puzzled and asked:
"I don't know who you are? You went to so much trouble to invite me here, but I don't know why!"
Lin Hao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you are a member of the Red Party!"
"Who are you?" Li Zhengxun was secretly alert in his heart, and then asked doubtfully: "Central Bureau or Military Bureau?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Hao said with a melancholy look on his face:
"We are nobody. We are neither the Central Bureau nor the Military Bureau. We are just a group of poor people who have a deep hatred for the Japanese but have no way to serve our country!"
Although Li Zhengxun was still alert, he became more and more curious about the identities of Lin Hao and others!
Thinking about this group of people who actually rescued him from No. 76 so brazenly, one can imagine how powerful these people are.
If what Lin Hao said is true, then their Red Party may be able to absorb them!
Even if we cannot absorb it, if we cooperate with them, it will become a rare help.
So Li Zhengxun smiled and said, "I don't know what your name is, sir."
Lin Hao did not say his name, but shook his head and said: "I won't tell you my name, but you can call me by my code name 'Yanwang'!"
Li Zhengxun frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Hao's true attitude, but he did not show it on the surface.
The main reason is that everyone is not very familiar with each other, or they simply don’t understand the meaning of “King of Hell”.
So Li Zhengxun asked again:
"Then what is your purpose in looking for me, and why did you go to so much trouble to rescue me?"
"We have no intention of joining your party!" Lin Hao shook his head in denial, then said frankly:
"But we know that you are the ones who really want to live a good life, and you are also the ones who have the ability to save this suffering country!"
"We came to Mr. Li to say hello to you, so as to avoid unnecessary conflicts between us in the future. Saving Mr. Li is just to express our sincerity!"
Li Zhengxun was very happy about the praise from the "King of Hell". It was obvious that the King of Hell had good intentions towards them.
But they didn’t understand, if the King of Hell had such high confidence in them, why would he refuse to join them?
Then Li Zhengxun raised this question, and Lin Hao smiled bitterly:
"I am also a well-read person, and I have had the honor of reading your great works of thought, and I have read them thoroughly. I also know your history, from the Paris Commune to the October Revolution, from the Autumn Harvest to the Protracted War!"
"So, I may know your party better than you, yourselves, and that's why we admire people like you!"
"But it is precisely because of this understanding that we know we are destined not to become noble people like you, so it is better for us to keep our distance from the beginning and cooperate with you to a limited extent!"
“For example, in the matter of fighting a small life, we are still very happy to cooperate with your party!”
Upon hearing this, Li Zhengxun immediately looked at "King of Hell" in a different light and was surprised at this man's knowledge.
But as for the King of Hell's words, if he was happy at the beginning, then the words that came later made him extremely conflicted, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
People have already expressed their attitudes: they admire them but will not join them. But overall, they are still very happy.
After all, they were isolated and helpless in Shanghai. They had to guard against Xiao Zi in the front, as well as the Military Control Commission and the Central Control Commission behind them, for fear that they would stab them in the back.
If what this "King of Hell" said is true, he would be a rare help to their Shanghai. Of course, the premise is that what he said is true.
So Li Zhengxun said:
"In that case, we do have room for cooperation. As long as they are willing to crack down on Xiao Ri, we are happy to cooperate!"
Afterwards, Lin Hao had a long talk with him and reached an agreement on cooperation in certain areas.
However, Li Zhengxun also stated that he would report the matter to his superiors, but at the same time he also said that he had been arrested and would definitely be investigated when he returned, and there might be twists and turns, and he did not know what his superiors' attitude would be.
Lin Hao did not force anything, but just asked him to convey his attitude to the relevant people.
Finally, Lin Hao took out a box and said:
"This is the box you hid at Nanxiang Railway Station. All the stuff is inside. Maybe you can use it!"
Li Zhengxun looked at the box in front of him, looked at Lin Hao in amazement, and his heart was shocked like a storm.
However, it was not over yet. Lin Hao felt that the matter was not serious enough and continued:
"To be honest, among the people on this line, only you and Du Juan are reliable. I really don't know how to describe the others."
Li Zhengxun's heart tightened, but he relaxed when he thought that they were the ones who saved him. However, he still neither admitted nor denied his identity.
Instead, he asked curiously, "What do you mean?"
Lin Hao shook his head and said speechlessly:
"When you failed to make the connection and were arrested, your Lao Zhao still asked his lover to come to Shanghai to get married, and brought two ignorant children with him, fearing that they would be exposed."
"More importantly, just an hour ago, when he discovered that he was being eavesdropped, his first reaction was not to evacuate, but to hunt down that person."
"He ended up getting shot, that's fine, but he actually asked his lover to go find Du Juan, was he afraid that you guys wouldn't be caught in the same trap?"
Li Zhengxun felt a headache when he heard this. It turned out that the "King of Hell" knew their every move. He was also angry at Lao Zhao's lack of calmness.
However, the blow to him was not over yet. At this time, Lin Hao said with some emotion:
"By the way, now that old Zhao's lover, who I heard is Du Juan's child bride, is all over the street asking for the location of No. 76!"
"What is going on?" Li Zhengxun felt hot in the head when he heard this, his blood boiling, and he even had an urge to kill!
Fortunately, he was a staunch member of the Red Party and did not put it into action. At the same time, he did not know whether the information was true or not. To be more precise, he did not know whether the information provided by Lin Hao was true or not.
But he actually believed it a little in his heart. After all, he could accurately name Lao Zhao and even knew about his marriage.
The most important thing now is not to argue with the King of Hell, but to quickly notify the superiors and stop Lao Zhao’s lover from looking for Du Juan.
But he couldn't go out in his current condition, so it seemed he could only use the radio.
Wait, as an old underground worker, Li Zhengxun has enough vigilance. After all, "Yan Wang" first took out the radio transmitter, and now told him that there was something wrong with this line. This made him doubt whether Lin Hao had impure intentions and whether he deliberately lured him to send a radio message. The key point is that he can't verify the authenticity of Lin Hao's information now.
Suddenly, Li Zhengxun had an idea in his mind, and then he said seriously:
"Mr. Yan Wang, you see, it is indeed inconvenient for me to go out now. Moreover, I am still under arrest by my superiors. If I send out the message, I will not gain their trust."
"So what?" Lin Hao saw clearly Li Zhengxun's tentative intention, but he was not angry. If Li Zhengxun was that kind of brainless person, he would not be alive today.
"So, please do me a favor and stop Lao Zhao's wife from going to No. 76!" Li Zhengxun said to Lin Hao.
He was quite helpless at this time. He knew nothing about the situation in the outside world. It was difficult to tell whether the information from the King of Hell was true or false. Sending a message was extremely dangerous and might leak some important information.
Since everything is unknown, it is better to follow the information provided by Lin Hao and let him help deal with this matter. Regardless of whether Lin Hao's information is true or false, it will not affect other people in the Red Party.
This was quite what Lin Hao wanted. If it weren't for those four talented people, Fang Jiashu's safety would have been much more dangerous.
The whole drama is about Tao Yuling and her two children taking turns getting into trouble, repeatedly implicating Lao Zhao and Fang Jiashu.
Helping Li Zhengxun can prevent Lao Zhao from being implicated by his daughter Le Yan and being killed, and then self-righteously blaming Fang Jiashu, and Xiao Shitou will not almost expose Fang Jiashu's identity because he said he often robbed people.
This is equivalent to changing the fate of several people, it is simply killing two birds with one stone.
So Lin Hao said without hesitation:
"Okay, I know you don't trust us. It's okay. I don't think I can gain your trust with just one piece of information."
"But I will definitely help you with this. It's not just a simple favor!"
Li Zhengxun heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then thanked him: "Thank you!"
Lin Hao nodded, then took out a note and handed it to Li Zhengxun and said:
"Okay, here's my contact information. If you need anything, you can contact the people above. Then we'll be leaving!"
"By the way, the back door of the house here leads to another alley. Now that you have recovered, find a chance to leave!"
After saying that, Lin Hao turned around and left with Dr. Yang. However, when he reached the door, Lin Hao couldn't help but say:
"I have another piece of information. There is a secret room in Li Lixing's box at the Red Tent Nightclub. Your traitor is hiding there!"
Li Zhengxun saw Lin Hao off with a calm expression, but he was far from calm as he appeared to be.
······
On the other side, Fang Jiashu and Ye Xingcheng came to the Red Tent Nightclub. As soon as they entered Li Lixing's private room, they found that the director had a gloomy face.
The three of them were silent for a moment. Li Lixing was testing the two of them, trying to find Du Juan, but Fang Jiashu and the other man messed up, and he couldn't tell who Du Juan was.
Before they could say anything, Mr. Qian, the owner of the Red Tent Nightclub, suddenly rushed in drunk.
Boss Qian defected to Ding the Butcher of the Wang Puppet regime. When he learned that Li Lixing's men had executed the Red Party members, he mocked them unscrupulously.
As a result, he was taught a lesson by Fang Jiashu and Ye Xingcheng, and finally he came to his senses and behaved himself.
Seeing that his two subordinates were so capable, Li Lixing's previous unpleasantness disappeared.
Afterwards, he comforted the two and finally had a drink together. Fang Jiashu also reported on the interrogation of Li Zhengxun.
After finishing the serious business, the few people found a few girls to drink with them.
While drinking, Fang Jiashu would occasionally look at the structure of the room, trying to find clues of a secret room.
However, the indoor lighting is a bit dim, and it would be difficult to find it in a short time, and I might even expose myself.
What Fang Jiashu didn't know was that Zhu Yu, the college student waitress in the box who looked harmless and weak, had been paying attention to their conversation.
After the three-person party ended, Li Lixing said that they would spend the night in the red tent, and asked Ye Xingcheng and Fang Jiashu to go back and find some pretty girls to relieve their fatigue.
Ye Xingcheng said that he wanted to get a massage to relieve his fatigue, so he prepared to go to a massage parlor to relax, and even asked Fang Jiashu to go with him.
Originally, Fang Jiashu was a little hesitant, wondering whether to investigate the problem in Li Lixing's secret room in the box, or go to Nanxiang Station to get his radio back.
Now that Ye Xingcheng had taken him away, he might as well go to Nanxiang Station tonight and get his radio back.
However, after going to a massage parlor with Ye Xingcheng, I took some time to go to Nanxiang Station, but in the end I found nothing.
What Fang Jiashu didn't know was that the radio had already been taken back by people sent by Lin Hao, so naturally he came back empty-handed.
Helplessly, in order to cover up the fact that he left the massage parlor halfway, he could only go to the home of his Military Control Commission partner Su Yalu.
That’s right, as a triple agent, Fang Jiashu, in addition to helping No. 76 openly and being a member of the Red Party secretly, also has the identity of a member of the Military Control Commission.
The person lurking in No. 76 with him was his old classmate and partner Su Yalu. Their common code name was "Silver Fox", who was Zhu Yu, a college student waiter in the Red Tent Nightclub.
In order to facilitate the execution of tasks and the exchange of intelligence, Fang Jiashu and Su Yalu's external identity is "couple", and the Military Intelligence Bureau Silver Fox even plans to let the two get married and become "Mr. and Mrs. Smith".
Su Yalu wanted to turn the fake into reality. She liked Fang Jiashu and had never concealed it. Fang Jiashu also had a good impression of her, but due to their respective identities, he refused again and again.
As he expected, Ye Xingcheng came running over as soon as he arrived at Su Yalu's house.
Seeing Fang Jiashu's car parked here, he was immediately furious. Su Yalu was the woman he had his eyes on, but Su Yalu didn't stand a chance for him at all, and instead Fang Jiashu got there first.
Now he could only watch Fang Jiashu enter Su Yalu's room, while he could only sit alone in the car feeling sad!
And Wan upstairs, no, it should be Su Yalu, saw that it was Fang Jiashu knocking on the door, and immediately said unhappily:
"You still found it!"
"Can you come in?" Fang Jiashu asked with a tired face, "I'm almost dying of exhaustion!"
Seeing that Fang Jiashu was tired from the journey, Su Yalu still let him into the room.
"Is it any valuable information?" Su Yalu poured Ye Xingcheng a cup of coffee.
"Ah~!" Fang Jiashu said helplessly: "No!"
"Ye Xingcheng is nagging as soon as he sees me, but you, on the other hand, are too lazy to say a single word to me!" Su Yalu said dissatisfiedly.
After taking a sip of coffee, Fang Jiashu said helplessly:
"I have endured three days and three nights. Doesn't it count as rushing to report to you as soon as I was released?"
