Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

Jiang Yue paused for a moment before standing up. She looked at the man opposite her with a hint of surprise in her eyes. "I like Li Jun. He went from being a boatman to a king. I admire him more for my maritime business. What about you?"

"I prefer Yan Qing because he is not only good-looking, but also loyal and righteous."

After saying this, the contact code was matched. The two chatted for a while and learned that he came here to order a large batch of goods. Jiang Yue said he was the boss, and Chen Xin laughed: "Then we are quite predestined. How about I treat you to a cup of tea?"

Jiang Yue readily agreed, and the two walked away together. Jiang Yue took Chen Xin to the rented hotel. As soon as the door was closed, Jiang Yue hugged Chen Xin tightly, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "I thought you were dead."

After saying this, Jiang Yue started laughing. She told Chen Xin what had happened in the past few days, and Chen Xin also told her about what was happening on her side.

That day, Chen Xin had just returned to the office after inspecting the warehouse and was about to start work when he suddenly received a phone call saying, "The driver has rebelled, Qiu Chan has died, evacuate immediately."

After saying that, he hung up the phone. Although Chen Xin didn't know who called, he knew that the person who knew Qiu Chan's code name must be his comrade. Chen Xin hung up the phone without hesitation and thought of Jiang Yue in a flash. He knew that if he exposed himself, Jiang Yue, who was close to him, would definitely not be able to escape. With time running out, he could only say, "Let's go," and evacuated.

But the enemy was too cunning. The business was surrounded before Chen Xin could evacuate. Chen Xin took out a pistol from the secret compartment, chose a direction with fewer people and started to break out. However, he was hit by several bullets and fainted in the alley soon after he ran out.

When Chen Xin woke up again, she was already in a ward. She thought she was caught by someone chasing her. When she was about to escape, a man came into the ward and said that he saw her being chased by the Japanese and rescued her. He didn't say who he was and just told her to stay there in peace.

Chen Xin certainly wouldn't believe the inexplicable words said by the inexplicable person, but he had lost too much blood and had no strength. In addition, his wound had just been sutured and he couldn't run far. There was someone guarding the door, so he had no choice but to stay here and see if there was a better opportunity.

It just so happened that the few days in the ward were also the time when Jiang Yue first sent out the news of the meeting. Chen Xin was in the ward and no one outside gave her the newspaper to read, so Chen Xin didn't know about the news, let alone come to meet. After two or three days, when Chen Xin was closing her eyes to rest and think about something, the door of the ward opened, and a man came in and started talking about Chen Xin's life.

Chen Xin waited quietly for her to finish. The person opposite saw Chen Xin's calm look and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes: "Aren't you afraid? What if I'm Japanese?"

Chen Xin smiled and said, "The Japanese were kind enough to save me. They didn't let me stay in a cell but in a ward. Someone even brought me food every day. This treatment is too good!"

After Chen Xin finished speaking, the man on the other side laughed: "My name is Shi Feng, the chief of the Military Control Commission Shanghai Station. My people happened to see you being hunted and rescued you. I checked your life these days and found that you are a patriotic businessman who has provided supplies and medicines to the National Army many times. I can't bear to see such a talent being buried. Do you want to join our Military Control Commission and fight against the invaders together!"

Chen Xin shook her head and said, "I am just a woman and a businessman. I cannot bear such praise from Stationmaster Shi. As for joining the Military Control Commission, forget it."

Shi Feng didn't find it strange to see Chen Xin refuse. After all, he felt that it was a problem for him to join immediately after the first invitation. Then they chatted about all sorts of things. When he saw that Chen Xin looked tired, he said goodbye and left. After Chen Xin left, he felt that this was a good opportunity to infiltrate the Military Control Commission, but he couldn't agree easily to avoid arousing suspicion.

In the next two days, Shi Feng came over every day to chat with Chen Xin about all sorts of things. He subtly instilled in Chen Xin the greatness of the Military Control Commission through his words. Chen Xin pretended not to notice and his attitude became better and better day by day. Shi Feng also thought that he had done a perfect job and was just waiting for the right opportunity to invite Chen Xin again. Next time, Chen Xin would not be able to escape from his control.

On the fifth day after Chen Xin came here, which was also the day after Jiang Yue sent the second meeting message, Shi Feng invited Chen Xin again. Chen Xin was a little hesitant this time: "Stationmaster Shi, you keep inviting me but I don't know anything except business. What can I do in the Military Control Commission?"

"No, no, no, being able to do business is also great. You have to know that the Military Control Commission also needs money. Does it cost money to buy guns and ammunition? The pensions for the fallen comrades also need money! There are many places that need money, so don't underestimate yourself!"

"Won't they pay for this? Besides, my Chen family business is finished now. I don't know how long it will take before I can make money again from scratch."

Shi Feng looked very angry when he said this: "What the higher-ups gave us is enough, but there are always some corrupt officials who embezzle from it. We should be thankful if we can have half of it left in our hands."

After hearing what he said, Chen Xin didn't know what to say and didn't say anything. Shi Feng also felt that he had said too much: "Then do you want to join the Military Control Commission?"

Chen Xin nodded without refusing this time. Shi Feng laughed and said, "Welcome to join the Military Control Commission." Chen Xin also said, "I am honored." Before leaving, Shi Feng said, "Someone will handle the formalities for you tomorrow and will ask you some questions. Just tell the truth."

The next morning, two people came to question her. At first, she had some basic information such as her name and family, until another person said, "We in the Japanese puppet spy department said that you are wanted for collaborating with the Communist Party. Do you have any connection with the Communist Party? Why do you say you are collaborating with the Communist Party?"

Chen Xin was a little confused and surprised: "I don't know the reason either. I just received a call that day saying that the Japanese came to arrest me. I don't know who called. I was half-believing and half-doubting, but I still chose to leave first. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall!"

"Then I was rescued by your people. To be honest, I don't know why I was arrested. As for the charge of collaborating with the Communist Party, that's even more ridiculous. I don't even know that I am collaborating with the Communist Party, so I don't know how they know."

"If you have no connection with the Communist Party, then why did you run away?"

Chen Xin rolled her eyes and said, "The Japanese came to arrest you and you didn't run? How could a woman like me be safe after being arrested? Besides, when I ran, I didn't even know why I was arrested."

The two were silent for a while, and one of them said, "The intelligence we got was that the Communist Party betrayed you. You have no connection with the Communist Party, so why would they betray you?"
