Qingmu specifically told Feng Zixiong to be vigilant, and that "Shadow" would have a single line of contact with him in the future. Feng Zixiong planned to use the postal route from Nanjing to Shanghai to contact "Shadow". To be on the safe side, the recipient would be Manna, who was engaged to "Shadow". Even if the mail was inspected, no one would suspect the two young people in love.

Feng Zixiong and his wife told Manna the situation and said, "We had an arranged marriage for you when you were a child. Now that you're older, you two can chat and exchange letters. This is his photo." After that, they handed Feng Manna a photo of Zhou Hanguang (Shadow, the Japanese spy who was lurking as a major staff officer of the Nanjing Military Commission).

Manna took the photo, a little reluctantly, and said, "Dad, what era is this? You still want to have a baby marriage? I don't agree. These photos are all from childhood."

Father Feng said, "Just let the two of you talk about it. After all, this childhood engagement happened a long time ago. If you feel attracted to each other, you can continue the relationship. If you feel it's not suitable, forget it."

Manna said, "That's fine, let's talk about it first, then what should I call him."

"He is the third child in his family, so you can just call him Third Brother." Father Feng said after thinking for a while.

Lin Youyou brought Lin Wu to Nanjing. System 103 asked curiously, "Host, why are you here in Nanjing?"

"Something happened." Lin Youyou answered concisely.

"Okay." said System 103.

After confirming that the surrounding situation was safe, Zhou Hanguang put the letter to Manna into the mailbox, and Lin Youyou happened to see this scene.

Zhou Hanguang was very alert. He used his sunglasses to detect that there seemed to be movement in the alley behind him, so he drew his gun and went into the alley to investigate. In the alley, he stepped on a button of a Kuomintang military uniform, picked it up and put it in his pocket.

In the quiet alley, there seemed to be nothing special except an old craftsman who was forging iron and an old woman who was doing needlework. Zhou Hanguang finally relaxed his vigilance, put the gun back into his waist and left.

Zhou Yuhao then spoke, looking at the woman next to him, holding her hostage with a knife, and said, "Who are you?"

When Lin Wu saw this scene, he immediately shouted, "Let my master go." After saying that, he was ready to take action.

Zhou Yuhao said, "Who do you think is faster, me or you? If you wait a little longer, you will have to wait to collect your master's body."

Lin Wu was furious and said, "You...you..."

Lin Youyou said slowly, "Lin Wu, step back."

"But, master, you..." Lin Wu was a little reluctant.

"obedient."

"Yes."

Zhou Yuhao pushed the knife forward again and said, "Who are you?"

"The person who helped you, as for me, you will get to know me in the future." Lin Youyou reached out to take the knife away, touched her neck which was slightly stained with blood, and said, "I don't like blood very much. Please don't play with knives so easily next time, Mr. Zhou." Then she took the handkerchief handed to her by Lin Wu, wiped the blood off her hands, and threw the handkerchief away.

"Mr. Zhou, we'll see you later." Then he left with Lin Wu.

Zhou Yuhao looked at the receding figure, picked up the handkerchief on the ground, looked at the purple flowers embroidered on it, and there were some bloodstains scattered on it. He smelled it and there was a faint fragrance of gardenia.

Afterwards, Zhou Yuhao carefully folded the handkerchief into a small square, put it in his pocket, and left immediately.

Zhou Hanguang's letter soon reached the hands of Li Jie, the liaison officer of the Shanghai underground party. He became suspicious when he saw the two airmail stamps on the envelope. He took out the letter inconspicuously, took a photo for preservation, and then restored the letter to its original state.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Li Jie quickly put away his things and went to open the door. It was Zhou Yuhao, an underground member of the Communist Party of China, outside the door. Li Jie pulled Zhou Yuhao in, looked at the surrounding environment, and closed the door.

After entering the house, Li Jie printed out the photos he had just taken and showed them to Zhou Yuhao, saying, "There is nothing wrong with this letter. It is about the love affairs between a man and a woman. I think the real secret should be on those two airmail stamps, but if the stamps are moved, there will be traces."

Zhou Yuhao looked at the photo but couldn't figure out anything. He said, "There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the letter. By the way, I was almost discovered when I was following Zhou Hanguang this time, but was later rescued by someone."

Li Jie was a little scared when he heard this and said, "Spies like this are usually very vigilant and have a strong awareness of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance. You are lucky this time. By the way, do you know who saved you?"

Zhou Yuhao said, "I don't know her. I only know she's a woman, with a female subordinate by her side. She looks like a lady from a wealthy family, but not really. She's quite skilled, so I may not be able to beat her."

"You can't beat him, so I'm a little curious about who it is?" Li Jie asked curiously.

"By the way, I have a handkerchief that someone lost. There are purple flowers embroidered on it. Take a look." After saying that, he took out the handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Li Jie carefully.

Li Jie looked at Zhou Yuhao's actions and said with a smile, "You wouldn't do this." Then he opened the handkerchief, saw the purple flowers clearly, and immediately became a little serious, saying, "You saw her."

Zhou Yuhao was a little curious about why Li Jie's expression suddenly changed, and said, "I saw him. What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly become serious while talking?"

"Her identity is not simple and is confidential. You just need to know that she is one of ours. Nothing else matters."

Zhou Yuhao knew that he couldn't ask about this matter. He looked at the handkerchief in front of him and was very curious about what kind of person her owner was and whether they would meet again in the future. (At this time, Zhou Yuhao didn't know that his feelings for Lin Youyou would turn into unforgettable love in the future)
