Spy war in the Republic of China, peak undercover

Lu Yang looked up.

An abandoned chimney stands by the river.

It was left behind by the old Harbin Match Factory.

It is about three stories high.

The old man pulled the boat to the shore:

“There’s a platform up there.”

“You can see directly into the hotel’s backyard.”

Lu Yang jumped ashore.

Look closely at the chimney.

Moss grew in the cracks between the bricks.

It looks like it has been abandoned for many years.

“When I was young.”

The old man handed him a bundle.

“Just standing guard here.”

“There are ropes and telescopes inside.”

“And some dry food.”

Lu Yang took the bag.

Just about to say thank you.

The old man has rowed away.

Disappear into the night.

The chimney is very tall.

It's not easy to climb up.

Lu Yang touched the rough brick surface.

Start climbing up.

under the moonlight.

His figure merged with the chimney.

Like a clever night cat.

Move upwards silently.

suddenly.

The bricks under my feet gave way.

Lu Yang quickly adjusted his center of gravity.

Dig your fingers into the cracks between the bricks.

That’s why he didn’t fall.

He took a deep breath.

Continue up.

Finally climbed to the platform.

A hot spring hotel in the distance.

Bright lights.

Several figures were walking in the yard.

Lu Yang set up the telescope.

Those people were wearing military uniforms.

It seems to be Ishita's guard.

They were in groups of three.

Patrol along fixed routes.

Every fifteen minutes.

Change your post.

Very regular.

Lu Yang noted the time.

These are all flaws.

Just about to put away the telescope.

A familiar figure.

Appear in sight.

He is Noda's adjutant.

He was talking to the guard.

It seems that Noda has also set his sights on Ishida.

The situation is becoming increasingly complicated.

Lu Yang sat down against the chimney.

Unpack.

There's nothing inside except tools.

There are also a few sesame cakes.

He picked one up at random.

took a bite.

It turned out to be freshly baked.

It seems organized.

Always watching over me in secret.

The night is getting darker.

A cold wind blew from the river.

Lu Yang wrapped his military uniform tightly.

Such a night.

It is easiest to make people fall into memories.

He recalled the days he spent in the Soviet area with Secretary Zhao in the northwest.

At that time, I was a spy running back and forth between the two sides.

Dai Yunong once said to him:

“You have to remember that.”

"Drive a wedge into the enemy's heart."

“It’s not a dinner.”

now.

He has been on this road for almost three years.

Like a grain of sand.

Sneak into the enemy camp silently.

Day and night.

A big drama is being performed.

Sometimes even himself.

Get lost in the role.

The light in the telescope.

It flickers on and off.

It reflects the hotel courtyard.

The cherry trees sway in the wind.

Snow under the trees.

Glowing with a bluish-white light.

Lu Yang suddenly understood.

Why did Ishida choose this place?

This scenery.

It must have reminded him of his late wife.

People have feelings.

Even enemies.

You can't escape the joys and sorrows of this world.

He sighed softly.

A mission is a mission.

Acting on emotion.

It will only make all the efforts go to waste.

The sky turned white.

Lu Yang put away the telescope.

He had timed the changing of the guard.

I remember it clearly.

Now to find a place.

Have a good sleep.

Recharge your batteries.

Wait for Ishita to show up.

About to go down the chimney.

Suddenly I saw it on the river.

A fishing boat drifted by.

There was a red light hanging on the bow.

That's a code.

The organization sent someone to pick him up.

Lu Yang looked around carefully.

Make sure there is no eyeliner.

Then he slid down the chimney nimbly.

The fishing boat docked silently.

There was a young girl on the boat.

Wearing coarse clothes.

Wearing a bamboo hat.

“I’m Xiaolan.”

she said softly.

"Lao Guan asked me to take you somewhere."

Lu Yang jumped onto the boat.

The girl was holding a bamboo pole.

The boat sailed through the morning mist.

Like a fallen leaf.

Drifting in an unknown direction.

The city is waking up.

A train whistle sounded in the distance.

There were already figures on the dock.

They all come to the morning market.

Xiaolan rowed the boat into a small river.

There are old houses on both sides.

The base of the wall is covered with vines.

Stop at a remote pier.

"arrive."

She pointed to a small building on the shore.

“This is a stronghold of Laoguan.”

“You can rest here.”

"Someone will come to see you in the evening."

Done.

She rowed away again.

Disappeared in the morning mist.

Lu Yang pushed open the door of the small building.

The house is very clean.

There was hot tea on the table.

He walked to the window.

This is right across the road to the temple.

It's a great observation point.

It seems that the organization has already made arrangements.

He is lying on the bed.

Listening to the footsteps outside.

Gradually there were more and more.

the city.

A new day has begun.

And his mission.

Will also be today.

A turning point comes.

Lu Yang finally met Lao Guan's correspondent Xiao Liu in a rental house. Xiao Liu's face was cracked by the cold.

Roasting by the fire.

"Commander, this is a letter from Commander Guan."

Lu Yang patted him and said, "Take a rest first."

He quickly opened the letter.

I thought to myself that the leader had safely passed the blockade and reached the Soviet Union across the way.

Lao Guan has already lived a comfortable life and has hidden himself in the mountains, and has been entrusted with another task.

The Harbin Police Department has captured one of my important agents, Taishan, and the organization requests you to try to rescue him.

Lu Yang, look, just throw it into the stove.

Grab a baked potato.

Thinking while eating.

I worked as a police officer in the Harbin Police Department three years ago, but although we were old friends at that time and we are now, my identity could not be revealed.

For now, I can only rely on my identity as a Japanese soldier.

How to do?

He stood up and said goodbye to the traffic officer.

Along the way, I was still thinking about how to start this rescue plan.

You must first infiltrate the Military Police Headquarters and obtain authority.

Lu Yang is now a special commissioner of the Kwantung Army General Staff, a major in the British agency, and a field officer of the Special High Section.

With such an identity, there would be no problem getting in, but you need a suitable excuse.

Walked a while.

"Got it," the only way to track down the traitor was to enter the Harbin Military Police Headquarters.

The next morning, Lu Yang changed into his neat military uniform.

Wear a brand new military cap.

He stroked his fingers over the cherry blossoms on the collar badge.

This is another new role.

He was going to the Military Police Headquarters.

With the most arrogant attitude.

With the coldest expression.

To rescue a dying man.

What a ridiculous script.

Snow was falling on the street.

Snowflakes fell on his shoulders.

Like countless cold hands.

Slapping his conscience.

Lu Yang quickened his pace.

Leather boots squeaked in the snow.

It's like stepping on countless people's bones.

His shadow swayed under the streetlight.

Sometimes tall.

Sometimes short.

Sometimes clear.

Sometimes blurry.

Just like who he is now.

Just like his inner struggle.

The Military Police Headquarters is just ahead.

That gray building.

Like a dormant beast.

Waiting for the prey to fall into the trap.

Lu Yang took a deep breath.

Pushed open the door.

The military police on duty stood at attention and saluted.

He nodded.

There was a sneer on his face.

The show begins.

The office of the Military Police Commander.

Like a giant spider web.

Hum Stone Wilderness is that spider.

Lie in the middle.

Waiting for the prey to fall into the trap.

"Major Yamazo."

He grinned.

Revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.

“You are so welcome.”

"I'm sorry for not welcoming you."

Lu Yang stood straight.

Like a steel nail.

"I've been ordered to investigate the traitor."

"We need your cooperation."

The eyes of the humming stone wilderness.

Squinted into two slits.

Like a snake sizing up its prey.

"A traitor?"

He said slowly.

“We’re here.”

"But they are all loyal to the emperor and patriotic."

Lu Yang sneered:

“Then we must investigate even more.”

"To prevent any black sheep from forming."

"It has tarnished your reputation."

The office was quiet.

Even the clock on the wall.

It was like they had stopped breathing.

Hum Shi Huanglang touched his chin.

This Yamasa Shichiro.

It’s not easy to deal with.

Someone from the Special High Police.

They are all troublemakers.

“Okay.”

His tone suddenly changed.

Like a slippery loach.

“I’ll send someone.”

“Assisting you with your case.”

"Lieutenant Hirata Ichiro."

"He will accompany you."

Then he rang the bell.

When Hirata came in.

Humshi Wilderness laughed even deeper.

Like a cat that stole some fish.

“Cooperate well.”

"Major Yamazo is investigating the case."

“Don’t let anyone tell you.”

“Our gendarmerie is not doing its job.”

Lu Yang understood.

This is to get rid of him.

Hirata is just a cover.

It's clearly a perfunctory approach.

But that suits him just fine.

No one better than the other.

Incompetent watchers are better.

When leaving.

The sound of humming stone wilderness.

Like a block of ice:

"Major Yamazo."

“Investigating the case is important.”

“Don’t take it too seriously.”

"lest......"

He smiled meaningfully:

"It's like alerting the enemy."

Lu Yang didn't look back.

Opened the door and walked out.

Coming from behind.

The laughter of the stone wilderness.

Like rotten fruit.

It exudes a sweet smell.

Disgusting.

After Lu Yang left, he rented a long-term room at the Six Nations Hotel across the street.

The next morning, we left the hotel.

Back to the gendarmerie headquarters.

The lights in the duty room.

Like a yellow eye.

Staring at everyone who comes in and out.

Lu Yang took out his ID.

Photo above.

It was a stranger's face.

But it was him.

"Major Yamazo."

The military police on duty lowered their heads.

Looking through the record book.

“Your time…”

"how?"

Lu Yang said coldly.

"The Special High Section is handling the case."

“Do you still need to check the time?”

The military police quickly shook their heads.

Like a frightened quail.

The corridor was quiet.

There was only the sound of leather boots.

Echoing on the concrete floor.

It was like a death knell.

Lu Yang counted his steps.

Every seven steps there is a turn.

There is a checkpoint every ten steps.

He remembered all this.

The archives room of the Special High Section.

It's at the corner of the third floor.

There was what he needed.

There was a person standing at the stairs.

He is a young officer.

Smoking.

See Lu Yang.

Stand at attention and salute immediately.

"Major Yamazo."

"Why are you here?"

Lu Yang recognized him.

He is a lieutenant in the military police.

Ichiro Hirata.

“There’s a case.”

Lu Yang deliberately lowered his voice.

“About the traitor.”

Hirata's eyes lit up.

Like a wolf smelling blood.

“Which department are you from?”

Lu Yang shook his head:

"confidential."

"I want to check the archives."

"Please wait a moment."

Hirata took out his keys.

Hand it over like offering a treasure.

“Can I help you?”

Lu Yang took the key:

"Need not."

"Go and do your thing."

“Don’t let anyone disturb me.”

The door of the archive room.

Make a harsh sound.

Like an old woman's sigh.

Lu Yang locked the door.

Turn on the desk lamp.

Yellow light.

It illuminates the rows of filing cabinets.

He found it quickly.

About the police station files.

There's something he wants in there.

The location of the interrogation room.

Deployment of police force.

Time to change shifts.

Everything is recorded clearly.

suddenly.

He saw a report.

It's about Tarzan.

It says:

"The prisoner refused to speak."

"It is recommended to transfer it to the Special High Police."

“Execution tomorrow.”

Lu Yang's hand trembled.

Time is tighter than imagined.

He had to do it tonight.

About to leave.

There were footsteps outside the door.

More than one person.

Lu Yang held his breath.

Put your ear to the door.

"What is Major Yamazo investigating?"

It was an unfamiliar voice.

"have no idea."

It was Hirata who answered.

"He said it was a case of traitor."

"A traitor?"

The man sneered.

“There haven’t been any such cases recently.”

“Are you sure it was him?”

The footsteps are getting closer.

Lu Yang held the Browning tightly.

This is a game.

They had suspected him long ago.
