Bai Zhu was correcting homework when he heard a familiar voice downstairs. It was the voice of a rickshaw driver soliciting customers. He came downstairs and got into Xie Wuwei's rickshaw.

The two of them came to a remote park, and Xie Wuwei whispered:

"Sekino is going to hold a birthday party for Fujiwara's daughter, and many high-ranking Japanese officials will be in attendance."

"We need to find the poison gas bomb expert now. If we delay any further, he will most likely be asked to leave Shanghai. As for the banquet, you don't need to worry about it."

Hearing this, Xie Wuwei hesitated for a moment.

"Maybe he's gone? I've searched all over Shanghai and can't find him."

"Have you really found everything? Think carefully, is there anything you missed?"

Hearing Bai Zhu's words, Xie Wuwei's eyes moved slightly. There was one place he hadn't found, and that was the brothel.

He had previously thought that Zhou Qin would not hide anyone there, but it seemed that he was too self-righteous.

"Okay, I have something more important to tell you. The organization believes that you are in the Secret Service. The situation is ever-changing and the situation is very dangerous. You can make your own decision."

Xie Wuwei also agreed. After all, there are always emergencies in the Secret Service Bureau. If you contact your superiors before taking action, you may miss many opportunities.

"In order to protect you and Lin Ruotang, I will not meet you again."

After he finished speaking, he looked around cautiously.

"I'll drop off newspapers at your house and tell you about the mission. If there's anything special, you can just call my school. The code word is, 'Relatives from back home are here.' Let's get together sometime. I'll be waiting for you at home then."

This is also to protect Xie Wuwei and Lin Ruotang. As time goes by, they will definitely go higher, and they must clear those people's suspicions about them.

"Not only must you stay undercover at No. 76, but you must also prevent the Military Control Commission from discovering that you are members of an underground organization. This will create a double crisis for you."

Bai Zhu was very worried about Lin Ruotang. Not only was he a newcomer, he was also quite young.

"Magpie recently..."

"When 'Magpie' saw the captured operatives hiding in the Military Control Commission, he felt a little emotional, but he managed to get through it."

When Xie Wuwei said this, there was a hint of worry in his eyes, and he didn't know whether Lin Ruotang could do it.

Seeing Xie Wuwei like this, Bai Zhu thought of the order from the organization and continued:

"The organization hopes that you and Magpie will become husband and wife so that you can protect each other."

"Okay, I'll use this as an excuse to raise the betrothal gift Jin Dayong requested, and we'll talk about it when she's older."

Xie Wuwei finished speaking, looking a little uncomfortable, with a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.

"If she doesn't like it..."

"This is a mission. It doesn't matter whether she's happy or not. She has to do it. Besides, this is also to ensure the safety of both of you. She will agree."

Bai Zhu patted Shanying's shoulder and said kindly:

"Don't 'Mountain Eagle' and 'Magpie' go well together?"

This made Xie Wuwei feel a little uncomfortable. His eyes flickered, and he felt inexplicably excited and worried. He was worried that Lin Ruotang might not agree...

He felt that Lin Ruotang did not seem very eager to get married when she mentioned it, and even seemed a little repulsive.

But it’s too early to think about these things now.

He exchanged a glance with Bai Zhu and left the park in his rickshaw.

The next morning, Lin Ruotang came to the Secret Service Bureau.

Zhou Qin still hadn't decided who would be the secretary, but the three of them almost knew that they were competitors and were extremely vigilant.

Liu Yan knew that Zhou Qin didn't like her, so she asked her brother for help yesterday. He was just a secretary, so she was very confident.

Seeing Lin Ruotang walking into the office with a pale face, Liu Yan sneered with a look of confidence.

"What a loser! He just went to the interrogation room and ran back home before he could torture Wang Shumei."

Hearing this, Lin Ruotang's mind was not here. She wanted to find an excuse to go to the interrogation room.

"Assistant Sun, don't be so honest in the future and do all the work yourself. When the time comes, I will arrange some easier work for you, and give these tasks to the person who pretends to be weak all day long."

Sun Lan's face looked grim. The higher-ups hadn't decided on who would be the secretary yet, but Liu Yan was already confident of winning. She felt aggrieved because it was her own fault.

In this world, it is really difficult to get ahead without connections and background.

Lin Ruotang didn't want to pay attention to Liu Yan. When this person was born, their family raised him with the placenta. He lost his brain and always did stupid things.

Zhou Qin didn't even say anything, but she already decided that she was the secretary's successor. It was really funny. Whoever dared to be Zhou Qin's boss? Even if Liu Feng came, he would have to be polite.

"Jingle Bell!"

The phone rang and Liu Yan ran out in a flash.

"Look at her!"

"I think Director Zhou is more satisfied with Assistant Lin."

Sun Lan said in a low voice, Lin Ruotang looked up at her and also spoke,

"I think Assistant Sun is the right person for you. After all, you've been working here the longest. Liu Yan and I are new here and don't know anything."

These words touched Sun Lan's heart. She looked very proud and said:

"This matter still depends on Director Zhou."

The two were talking when Liu Yan came in. She had just received a phone call and wanted to go out, but when she thought of Lin Ruotang being there, she wanted to play a trick on Lin Ruotang and make fun of her.

She walked in and went straight to Lin Ruotang's seat, smiling maliciously.

"Assistant Lin, Director Wang from the interrogation room wants you to get the report."

Lin Ruotang's heart moved. This was really what she wanted, but she still had to pretend that she was unhappy.

"Oh my god, are you kidding me? It was clearly you who answered the phone."

"Yes, that's the call I received. Director Wang specifically asked you to go get the report."

Seeing Liu Yan's confident face, Lin Ruotang sneered in his heart and spoke out. Director Wang is not a fool. He felt so uncomfortable yesterday, and today he specifically asked him to go. He is not worried about offending Jin Dayong.

Lin Ruotang had a look of doubt on his face. He slowly stood up and walked towards the interrogation room, but his speed was so slow that it seemed as if he could step on an ant to death.

She walked into the interrogation room again. The smell was stronger than mustard, and her face became even paler. Instead of going to the office first, she went to the interrogation room.

The person at the door saw Lin Ruotang and asked first,

"Why is Assistant Lin here?"

Lin Ruotang was almost scared to death yesterday. They all said that among Director Zhou's subordinates, Liu Yan was the most ruthless, and she could pull out Wang Shumei's nails at will.

Assistant Lin is a much more gentle person. Men tend to be gentle and considerate of women. Compared to women who are as cruel as poisonous snakes, they prefer women who are like little white rabbits.

"Liu Yan asked me to come. She said Director Wang asked me to come."

They were at the gate and didn't know whether it was true or not, but seeing Lin Ruotang's unhappy face, they guessed it was true.

Lin Ruotang opened the door and walked in. He looked around and found no one around.

Before she came, she passed by Director Wang's office and found him in the office. Only then did she guess that there was no one in the interrogation room.

Wang Shumei was indeed still here, but from a distance she looked like a corpse. Lin Ruotang hesitated for a moment, and could only suppress his fear as he moved closer and put his finger in front of Wang Shumei's nose.

And breath.

Lin Ruotang didn't know whether to be happy or sad. She put her hand into her coat pocket and touched the cold pen.

After she took out the pen, she seemed to realize something and looked up suddenly.

Wang Shumei's eyes were bloodshot, her entire eyeballs were exposed, and she stared at Lin Ruotang.
