Living in the Republic of China era, from undercover agent to immortality

"Get up. Since Boss Dai wants to act, then you should act well."

"Otherwise, none of us will survive."

"Even if you kill me, do you think Fourth Brother and the others will let you go?"

Zheng Yaoxian put away his gun, then sat down in the cabin and squinted as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Gong Shu immediately abandoned the idea of ​​carrying out Boss Dai's orders.

"Sixth Brother, Gong Shu will only be loyal to you in this life."

"Through fire and water, no matter what!"

As he spoke, Gong Shu kowtowed three times to Zheng Yaoxian.

As soon as he finished speaking, the plane roared and began to taxi for takeoff.

........

Several hours later, the Zero frigate had already entered the deep sea.

Li Changfeng brought Gu Xiaomeng, whom he had just met, into the room.

"Miss Gu, do you believe what I just said?"

Li Changfeng, holding a wine glass, looked at Gu Xiaomeng, who was in shock, and asked her a question.

Just now, Li Changfeng revealed the telegram they had deciphered.

They also revealed the secret hidden in Gu Xiaomeng's box.

"Who...who exactly are you?"

"How could you know my secret?"

Gu Xiaomeng said with great vigilance.

He embroidered Sherlock Holmes's code on his sweater so that he could pass on the deciphered information.

Unexpectedly, the Japanese translator in front of him saw through his plan.

The absurd thing is that instead of having someone arrest him, this guy took him to his room.

Could this guy be interested in me?

Gu Xiaomeng thought of this, and then unconsciously tightened her collar with both hands.

"Don't worry, I have no ulterior motives towards you."

"I brought you in because I want to show you something."

Li Changfeng smiled slightly, and a National Glory Medal appeared in his hand.

This medal was given to him by Viper last time, but he put it into the system space.

I'm bringing it out now to prove my identity.

"The Order of National Glory?"

Upon seeing the medal, Gu Xiaomeng almost lost her mind.

This medal is the highest honor of the Nationalist government.

Only those who complete special missions and win glory for the country can receive it.

Unexpectedly, the Japanese translator in front of me actually had one.

He was absolutely certain he wouldn't mistake it; she had only ever seen the patterns and symbols on it in textbooks.

"You don't need to know my identity, just know that I'm one of our own."

"Fujita Yoshimasa's next plan is to have you decipher the König II cipher machine."

"Once the mission is complete, he will personally kill all the cryptographers on this frigate, including you."

"If you trust me, do as I say."

"I can let you... live."

Li Changfeng put away his medal and glanced at Gu Xiaomeng in front of him.

Based on his assessment, only Gu Xiaomeng and two other cryptography experts from the Special Higher Police had the opportunity to crack the second-generation cipher machine on this ship.

If those two Japanese from the Special Higher Police crack the cipher machine, Li Changfeng will kill them immediately.

However, if it were Gu Xiaomeng, he would want this woman to live.

Because he already knew Gu Xiaomeng's identity, and only she could reassemble the cracked cipher machine.

It provided crucial assistance to the Shanghai intelligence station in deciphering Japanese intelligence.

"Okay, I believe you."

"Tell me, what do you want me to do...?"

Hearing Li Changfeng's words, Gu Xiaomeng took a deep breath.

Then, after thinking for a moment, he said...

Regardless of how the Japanese translator in front of him obtained the medal, his words were clearly quite reasonable.

The Japanese will not allow any cryptography expert to leave this ship alive.

The second-generation cipher machine was crucial to the course of the subsequent war.

The consequences of a leak would be unimaginable.

"Okay, when you're cracking the cipher machine later, try to slow down."

"I'll take out your competitors before you can crack it."

"I guarantee Fujita won't kill you right away."

"After the crack is complete, I would like you to re-encrypt the cipher machine."

"To ensure that other couriers cannot obtain the cipher machine in a short period of time."

"I will persuade the people in the Mei Agency to let you join the Bai Mansion."

Li Changfeng looked at Gu Xiaomeng and said, word by word.

Gu Xiaomeng nodded slightly, now completely trusting Li Changfeng.

If he were an enemy, there would be no need to do this.

"Okay, I will do as you say."

Li Changfeng stepped forward and lifted her chin.

"Remember, you have never seen me."

“If you leak information, I don’t mind making you disappear along with them.”

"This is my advice to you."

As Li Changfeng spoke, a red light flashed in his eyes.

The spirit directly invaded Gu Xiaomeng's brain and cast a spell on her.

I spent so much time with Gu Xiaomeng just to get her hair and blood.

The incantation took effect instantly, and Gu Xiaomeng felt a slight tremor in her heart.

Then a smile appeared on his face.

"Understood, Takeuchi-kun."

........

The following day, in the ship's cabin conference room.

Japanese advisor Fujita Yoshimasa walked in carrying a wooden box.

With the help of several guards, the box was opened and placed in front of everyone.

This is something similar to a modern typewriter, except that it has more than three hundred keys.

Furthermore, the typewriter contained diodes and wireless communication equipment.

"Gentlemen, this is the König II cipher machine."

"It works on a similar principle to the first-generation cipher machine, but with a stronger signal."

"Triple encryption was used."

"The methods of receiving and sending messages are extremely complex, and the difficulty of deciphering them is comparable to the most difficult math problems."

"Whoever cracks it will receive the highest honors from the Imperial Army."

"Those who fail to crack the code will all meet the same fate: they will die here."

"Limited time: 168 hours..."

The Japanese advisor, Fujita Yoshimasa, glanced at his watch and said with a smile.

The seven cryptography experts, including Gu Xiaomeng, all looked grim.

"This...this is impossible."

"No one could crack the second-generation cipher machine in such a short time."

"168 hours, just seven short days."

Even if I didn't eat or sleep, I couldn't do it...

Upon hearing Fujita Yoshimasa's words, one of the code experts from number 76 stood up.

He said this in a huff.

He was Yang Zexian from the intelligence department.

In his view, this was simply an impossible task.

If cracking the cipher machine before was possible and one could get away with it, cracking the second-generation cipher machine is a dead end.

"is it?"

"Since you can't complete the mission, there's no point in you living."

As Fujita Yoshimasa spoke, he raised his hand and pointed his gun.

"Bang bang bang!"

"boom--"

Three shots hit the code expert Yang Zexian in the chest.

The last shot hit him in the forehead.

Yang Zexian, who was complaining, didn't even have time to dodge before he was riddled with bullets.

His whole body went limp and he collapsed to the ground, turning into a corpse.

Inukai Ken, the captain of the Mei Agency's operations team, waved his hand, and two Japanese spies dragged the body out.

The bloodstains left on the corpse stained a section of the conference room floor.

Fujita Yoshimasa smiled slightly and glanced at everyone.

"Does any expert have any further comments?"

"Step forward!"

"I have three bullets left in my gun, but I brought three magazines with me."

"Enough to kill all those who don't cooperate."

“Those who lack ability do not deserve the Imperial Army’s rewards.”

"........."

Li Changfeng repeated Fujita Yoshimasa's words, translated into Chinese.

The remaining cryptography experts exchanged glances and obediently sat down around the table.
