Lin Ze entered the house and saw that the man had shaved his head and changed his clothes. After this makeover, he looked quite handsome and it was easy for people to feel trust in him.

There was nothing in the shed. The man sat on the ground, holding a roast chicken and eating it desperately.

"There is a meat shop with its door closed on the south side. I went there to buy some food," said the worker.

Lin Ze didn't mind the dirtiness and sat on the ground. "What's your name? What did you do before fighting the Japanese in Northeast China?"

"My name is Huang Guofu. I'm a teacher in Fengtian." Old Huang said while eating roast chicken.

Lin Ze stopped asking.

But Old Huang kept chattering on.

"I went to a private school and read foreign books for a few days. I could recognize a few words. Later, I taught at Fengtian National Primary School No. 2. I got married and had two daughters."

"Later, the Japanese invaded Fengtian City, and the school started teaching Japanese. I couldn't stand it, so I resigned."

"In order to feed the children, my wife and I had to go out to work. I carried heavy bags and my wife went to the laundry. But one night she got off work late and ran into two Japanese soldiers. Because she didn't bow, she was dragged into the alley, raped and stabbed to death with a bayonet."

"Later, just like in Beijing now, there was food control. My two children starved to death. I was still alive, so I ran away and joined the Anti-Japanese United Army. I first fought guerrilla warfare everywhere. Later, the leaders saw that I could read and write, so they assigned me some easy work. Later, I was selected to come to Beijing."

Then Huang Guofu said, "Benefactor, which part are you from?"

Lin Ze shook his head and said, "I am not one of them."

Huang Guofu nodded, "I understand, I understand. We have to keep secrets in this business. I am not suitable for this job, but my superiors sent me here, so I have to come."

Lin Ze asked, "What are you going to do? Are you going to hide here for a while, or should I find a way to get you out of the city?"

Huang Guofu stopped eating the roast chicken when he heard this. "It would be best if I could get out of the city. I can't contact my superiors now, but I can go to Tianjin. There are..."

Lin Ze interrupted him with a headache: "Old Huang! I warn you again, if you keep talking nonsense like this, you may not be able to leave Beiping, let alone Tianjin."

Old Huang felt a little aggrieved. "You saved my life, otherwise I would have been arrested by the detective team. And you are obviously one of ours. I..."

"How do you know who I belong to? Besides, even if I want to save you now, what if the Japanese offer a reward and I change my mind because of the money? What will you do? You just wanted to say that there is a screening contact station in Tianjin, right? What if I use the information you told me to destroy that contact station as well?"

Setting up identification liaison stations was an innovation of the secret workers in the Red Zones, but it was also a helpless move because, for various reasons, secret workers in the Red Zones were often arrested in large numbers, and often a concentrated action by the enemy could wipe out most of the underground forces in a region.

Even if many people manage to escape, it is difficult to contact the organization. At this time, a universal screening and contact station is needed, which is like an enlarged version of a dead letter box. After those people send out a signal seeking to return to the team here, they can only passively wait for contact and accept further screening, but cannot take the initiative to meet any secret staff in the red zone.

It can be said that this setting has preserved the flames of fire in many places and has made great contributions.

"Old Huang, you haven't received any training?"

Old Huang thought for a moment, "Yes and no. Before I was sent to Peking, I was just doing writing work. Before I left, a leader talked to me for a long time and asked me to come to Peking to help with propaganda and agitation for the strike. I worked under the instructions of my superiors until the Japanese carried out a city-wide registration, and then I lost contact with them."

Well, Lao Huang was a secret worker, but not a spy. He just happened to kill two Japanese devils.

Lin Ze explained to him in detail the various precautions and some basic anti-tracking methods, and Lao Huang listened very carefully.

After he finished talking, Lin Ze stuffed a few dollars into his pocket and left.

After changing his clothes again and returning to his original appearance, he returned to the Dongbianmen Station Patrol Post, and Wang Xiaoshou hurried to report on the search.

"Master, our area is mainly composed of shops, and there are not many residents. We can check everything in an afternoon. We didn't find any suspicious persons. Don't worry, the brothers were very disciplined during the inspection, and didn't say anything harsh."

Lin Ze nodded, "Okay, we will do our best and leave the rest to fate. We just need to follow the instructions of our superiors."

Wang Xiaoshou whispered, "Master, your family doesn't have enough food? I have a friend on the street who does this. I will send you food every ten days or so."

Lin Ze thought for a moment and said, "Someone will deliver the food. You can just get me some side dishes every now and then, such as meat and eggs. I will pay you for them when the time comes."

Wang Xiaoshou was overjoyed. He had another chance to show himself!

Wang Xiaoshou wanted to talk more: "You said that paying the bill is a slap in my face..."

Lin Ze kicked him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Riding a bicycle is too tiring. Go get me a rickshaw. I'm going to Xiyanhe to find Qian Dana for something."

Wang Xiaoshou instantly felt that he was still Captain Lin’s confidant. Have you ever seen Captain Lin kick Xie Quan?

Lin Ze happily hailed a rickshaw and headed straight for the Xiyanhe Patrol Post.

Qian Dana had been looking forward to it for a long time. When he saw Lin Ze, he hurriedly pulled him upstairs.

A wooden box was placed on Qian Dana's desk.
