Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 1014 Heroic Souls

Time flies like an arrow; three days pass in the blink of an eye.

That day, after finishing his work, Ye Shaohong went to Zheng Yaoxian's office.

Chat with him casually.

Incidentally, he subtly mentioned to Zheng Yaoxian that his past whereabouts had been discovered and noticed.

There were also arrangements and actions taken by Ye Shaohong in response to this.

Isn't that amazing?

Why did it take so long?

Because Zheng Yaoxian had been on a mission for the past few days, he had not returned to the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters.

He had just returned last night, and this morning, Ye Shaohong rushed over as soon as he heard the news.

Fortunately, there was still time.

With Ye Shaohong personally overseeing the matter, and the interrogator already transferred to the Northwest, a few days' delay wouldn't matter since they were in a different place.

Zheng Yaoxian is a smart man, or rather, he is a rare wise man.

Ye Shaohong only mentioned it briefly and subtly, but Zheng Yaoxian already knew Ye Shaohong's purpose.

They also understood Ye Shaohong's arrangements and measures.

Zheng Yaoxian was very grateful for this.

Because Ye Shaohong had unknowingly eliminated a potential safety hazard for him.

That's equivalent to doing him a huge favor.

However, Zheng Yaoxian neither expressed his gratitude nor showed any emotion on his face. It was as if this matter was an ordinary, unremarkable thing from the past.

Zheng Yaoxian casually revealed his response.

This can be considered as giving Ye Shaohong an explanation.

If the matter is exposed in the future, Ye Shaohong and Zheng Yaoxian can reach a consensus on their statements.

I'm not worried about being investigated or questioned.

This is the unspoken understanding between the two of them.

Ye Shaohong knew Zheng Yaoxian's hidden identity, but never revealed it to him.

Zheng Yaoxian was also aware that Ye Shaohong was aware of his actions and would provide assistance, both openly and secretly.

This was of great benefit to Zheng Yaoxian's undercover work.

This will prevent Zheng Yaoxian from being so tense.

During a casual chat, Zheng Yaoxian mentioned that the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) had been making frequent moves recently.

It seems like they're up to something.

He was asking Ye Shaohong if he knew anything about this.

Have you heard any rumors?

Ye Shaohong thought about it and realized he had never heard of such a thing, but he casually agreed that he would have his men pay more attention to it.

If the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics really wants to cause trouble, he will notify Zheng Yaoxian.

Zheng Yaoxian is not capable of doing this.

Because he had not yet won Dai Yunong's complete trust, and the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics was an internal intelligence agency, if Zheng Yaoxian were to intervene in the investigation, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

But Ye Shaohong was different.

His family background and his connections within the Nationalist government meant that he could not possibly switch allegiance to someone else.

No one would believe it if I told them. Besides...

Ye Shaohong has a grudge against the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS). The CBIS had taken action against him before, and Ye Shaohong had also killed several CBIS members, both openly and secretly.

He paid attention to the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics' actions, and no one could find fault with them.

The tone of the matter was set in just a few words between them.

It was another perfect intelligence handover.

Just at this time.

There was a knock on the door of Zheng Yaoxian's office from the outside.

The woman who walked in was a junior clerk from the telecommunications department, a beautiful young woman with the rank of second lieutenant.

Upon entering, the junior employee's gaze immediately fell upon Ye Shaohong.

"Seventh Brother!" "Section Chief Chi's urgent telegram, it's in plain text!"

The information that the junior employee emphasized specifically piqued Ye Shaohong's curiosity.

He raised his hand, and the female lieutenant handed him the folder she was holding.

Ye Shaohong immediately understood the deeper meaning behind it.

Because the telegram contained only one sentence.

Already returned, arrived in port at 6 PM.

Upon seeing the telegram, Ye Shaohong nodded in satisfaction, picked up the pen clipped to the folder, and signed his name.

They then returned it to the second lieutenant female officer.

The female officer simply turned and left.

Only then did Zheng Yaoxian cast an inquiring glance at Ye Shaohong.

He didn't ask. Because there were some things that, even with their relationship, he shouldn't know.

I asked. Ye Shaohong replied that it was alright.

Not answering would definitely put Ye Shaohong in a difficult position.

Instead, it would be better to signal with a look. If Ye Shaohong was willing to tell him, and it didn't involve the core secrets of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he would naturally tell him directly.

If he didn't want to, Ye Shaohong could simply pretend he hadn't seen it and let it pass easily.

This is the measure of how well two people can interact.

Ye Shaohong naturally understood this as well.

He simply chuckled and then began to recount the whole story in a straightforward and simple manner.

The text mentions the cook who disregarded his own life and bravely fought the enemy.

There was also his behavior at the Wang family banquet, and Ye Shaohong's order for the Jellyfish Assassination Team to personally escort the cook's family back.

Zheng Yaoxian also greatly admires such a national hero.

Hearing that the cook's family would be taking the ferry back to the mountain town at 6 p.m. that afternoon, he thought about it and realized that he didn't have any important official business to attend to at the moment.

Zheng Yaoxian then suggested that he also wanted to go to the dock to greet them.

Meet the family of this national hero.

To express his respect.

Ye Shaohong certainly wouldn't refuse, and he even asked Zheng Yaoxian to tell his fourth brother, Xu Baichuan, about it.

See if he has time this afternoon, and whether we should go together.

After the conversation, Ye Shaohong went straight to Dai Yunong's office.

Welcoming the families of meritorious officials home is not a big deal, but Ye Shaohong still had to report it.

Let's see what arrangements Dai Yunong has.

Incidentally, he also mentioned to Dai Yunong that he, Zheng Yaoxian, and Xu Baichuan were planning to go and greet them together.

Dai Yunong said it was acceptable, and that such a solemn arrangement was not excessive in treating the heroes who died for their country.

He thought about it and decided not to participate.

Instead, he picked up the telephone on the table and called Mao Renfeng in.

Let him go in my place.

At the same time, he signed an approval slip with a flourish, instructing Mao Renfeng to go to the logistics department and collect a generous bonus.

To be used by the cook's family for future expenses.

This can also be considered as his sentiment.

This is a chance to gain exposure, so Mao Renfeng certainly wouldn't refuse.

He smiled and agreed. Five o'clock in the evening.

A convoy of vehicles, consisting of twenty or thirty people, drove out of the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters in Luojiawan in an orderly fashion.

After a brisk journey, we finally arrived at Chaotianmen Wharf before six o'clock, before the Yangtze River ferry had arrived.

Once the Military Intelligence Bureau personnel arrived, their subordinates naturally went to contact the dock workers.

There was also a ferry captain.

The work of clearing out idle personnel at the dock also went smoothly.

Soon, the Kuomintang agents, dressed in military uniforms and standing in neat rows, formed two lines on the dock pier and set up their formation.

When the ferry arrived and the deck was lowered, Chi Tiecheng and the Jellyfish Assassination Team members, who had already received the news, personally escorted the cook's family off the ferry.

The families of the heroes were given the highest level of treatment.

The hero's family couldn't help but burst into tears. The onlookers at the dock were also quite surprised and puzzled.

However, this matter was of great importance, and no information was leaked out from beginning to end.

And so it gradually became an unsolved mystery of the mountain city...
