The next day
Chinese-controlled area, Jing'an Park
On a park bench in a corner, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties sat neatly dressed, silently flipping through the newspaper in his hand.
Before long, a slightly hunched old man slowly walked over and sat down on the other side of the bench!
"Sir, where did you buy your newspaper?"
"The newsstand at the intersection of Haian Road!"
Once the secret code was matched, the old ghost, sitting on the bench, couldn't help but glance at the old man beside him!
The latter's attire surprised him somewhat!
The true appearance of the mountain rabbit!
He had seen it twice before!
But I didn’t expect it!
This time, the other party actually came disguised and made up!
"Are you crazy? Coming to the Chinese territory at this time!"
Before Lao Gui could even speak, Su Mu, sitting opposite him, blurted it out without any hesitation!
The Japanese are now arresting anti-Japanese elements on a large scale in Chinese-speaking areas!
What if your upline gets caught!
His life is definitely in danger!
"There's no other way, we have a mission from above!" Old Ghost ignored the other party's words and attitude. If it were him, he would also be unhappy to be asked to make contact in this situation!
Under the cover of the newspaper, Lao Gui also handed over the note with the mission details!
Su Mu took the note but didn't even look at it, only glancing at Old Ghost with impatience!
"Is there anything else?"
While speaking in hushed tones, Su Mu was also eavesdropping on the other person's thoughts!
He had been eavesdropping on people's thoughts to make sure there were no problems before he came to meet them!
My inner thoughts: It's only been a little over two months since I last saw this mountain rabbit, but it seems like it's become a completely different person!
Listening to the other person's mutterings, Su Mu inwardly complained helplessly!
He's not that hothead anymore!
This connector is dangerous!
How could he possibly come without makeup!
What if we get exposed!
I don’t even know how I died!
After confirming that the other party was alright, Su Mu didn't waste any more words and simply disappeared into the park with the note!
Even after Su Mu left, the old ghost who came to make contact with him always had a solemn expression!
but!
In the end, he still attributed Su Mu's changes to his infiltration of the Chinese territory!
After all, they were lurking in Chinese territory!
It's normal to be cautious!
..........
"Uh, you want me to cooperate in an assassination mission?!"
After taking several detours and destroying his disguise along the way, Su Mu finally returned to his residence with peace of mind!
only!
Su Mu was stunned for a moment when he saw the task details on the note!
The task written on the note is simple!
He was tasked with gathering information about a businessman in Shanghai named Zhang Hebing.
This person defected to the Japanese!
Not only did he become a traitor, but he also actively helped the Japanese prepare military rations!
Yamashiro has issued an assassination order for this person!
The Shanghai station, responsible for carrying out the mission, needs him to provide information on the other party's whereabouts!
"It seems we have no choice but to take action!"
Su Mu had no reason to refuse the task sent by the Shanghai station!
and!
Su Mu felt an intense hatred for such traitors!
This traitor who was procuring military rations for the Japanese!
But he is even more despicable than someone like Lu Xiong!
Since the outbreak of the Battle of Shanghai!
Although the Japanese occupied Shanghai!
However, the expenses of a large military force are an extremely serious problem!
Relying on Japan itself is simply impossible!
and so!
Only the Japanese would coerce a large number of wealthy merchants into providing them with military rations!
A wealthy merchant who sided with the Japanese could support thousands of Japanese soldiers!
"That guy works at the city hall now, looks like I'll just have to wait and see!"
The only information provided by the Shanghai station regarding Zhang Hebing is that he works at the Municipal Hall!
Detailed intelligence!
He needs to collect them little by little!
Good thing!
Now we have the ability to eavesdrop on thoughts!
Just give Su Mu time!
We should have no problem gathering information about Zhang Hebing!
The only troublesome point!
He now needs to go to the police station to work during the day!
The available time is limited!
"How about taking a sick leave?"
Muttering to himself, Su Mu hesitated for a moment!
The next morning, the police station
"Good morning, Uncle Zhang!"
"Brother Su, you're here really early!"
After greeting Grandpa Zhang, who was guarding the door, Su Mu headed towards the office.
After hesitating all night, Su Mu finally decided not to ask for leave!
At times like these, to inexplicably take leave and disappear for several days!
It's too dangerous!
When it comes to gathering intelligence, Su Mu's principle remains: prudence comes first!
Only by holding on can we have a chance to survive!
Su Mu spent the entire morning slacking off in the office, waiting for the end of the workday!
The Shanghai Police Station isn't far from the City Hall!
If you go to stake out the place after get off work, you might just run into that unlucky guy Zhang Hebing!
only!
Su Mu's idea is excellent!
In practice, for five consecutive days, there were still no clues!
...........
"This won't do. If this continues, we won't be able to get any information at all!"
As time ticked by and he made no progress whatsoever, Su Mu couldn't help but mutter to himself!
The specific timeframe for the anti-traitor operation at Shanghai Station was not mentioned.
But I know I won't have much time left!
If we continue wasting time, the mission will likely fail!
"Are we willing to take the risk?"
While pondering the situation, Su Mu also had a backup plan!
only!
The backup plan is a bit risky; it requires infiltrating the city hall!
"Zhang Hebing must die; we have no choice but to take the risk!"
After hesitating for a moment, Su Mu decided to take the risk. He was only gathering intelligence and only needed to go in and wander around a few times. The danger was not too great!
"Su Mu, the bureau chief is looking for you!"
Just as Su Mu was deciding to ask for leave, a shout came from the doorway!
With a frown, Su Mu straightened his clothes and hurriedly headed towards Lu Xiong's office!
only!
As soon as I stepped out, I saw Lu Xiong walking towards me with a serious expression on his face in the corridor!
"Su Mu, come with me to the city hall!" Lu Xiong, who had come in a hurry, only said this once before heading towards the car outside!
Su Mu, who was stunned for a moment, suddenly came to his senses when he heard his secretary calling him!
Let's go to the city hall!
This is just like a pillow delivered to a sleepyhead!
