Chapter 98 PARTY, Ma Mingyu's concern
More and more people are attracted by the attention, and many people are not very familiar with the dance of waltz.
The inner melody is indeed more important than the skillful dance skills. Unfamiliar dance partners must also be tested and run in order to be harmonious and smooth and natural.
At the end of the song, Daini had not yet woken up completely from her obsession. When she spoke, she still had a delicate tone in her English and kept laughing horriblely.
She felt so excited that she couldn't breathe, and felt thirsty. She walked to the sofa with Chen Chen, took her cup, and drank it all in one go.
"Drink less and don't get drunk." Chen Chen reminded kindly.
Daini smiled, shook her hand randomly, and sat on the sofa, looking at Chen Chen with bright eyes shining due to pleasure.
The dance music has changed. In the musical sound, there are always dancers shuttle, rotate, advance and retreat, and the happy atmosphere increases again.
The living room is not too big, it is a small dance floor. Fortunately, not all of them ended up, so it is barely enough.
Everett and Shen Chen sat aside, drinking and chatting. Jennifer listened, interjecting a sentence or two from time to time.
"Although there is pressure, I will not retire for the time being." Everett seemed not very happy and said with a frown: "I was just transferred to the spy unit, although I am not very willing."
The Police Office of the Ministry of Industry and the Political Security Department of the Police Office and the French Concession Police Office are mainly responsible for political subversion in name, but in fact they should be considered intelligence agencies of Britain and France.
When the Sino-Japanese War broke out, don’t think it’s just a matter of two countries.
In fact, major powers have been involved in this battle to control the Asian continent in various ways from the beginning.
Although it has established its own intelligence agencies in several countries with crucial economic and strategic interests in China.
And Shanghai has become a large metropolis of Far Eastern intelligence due to its special relationship.
Here, full of sin, barbaric crime and sinister politics, there is probably no place on the earth that is more suitable for secret war than here.
Some agents are often unexpected. For example, the senior team of Jardine Massachusetts, Kai Ziwei, was not only a director of the Ministry of Industry, but later was elected chairman of the board of directors. However, his identity was also a senior official of the British Secret Service Department, and later served as director of the Wartime Intelligence Department of the British Army in China.
Everett seemed dissatisfied with the job of the Special Agents, but the officials of the Special Agents were all British, and only those who were trustworthy could go in and work.
"Sitting in the office every day, flipping through endless documents-" Everett grinned, as if in great pain.
"Isn't that good?" Jennifer said with a smile: "Work is easier and there is no danger. If you look at it like this, you won't feel a torment."
Chen Chen nodded with a smile and said, "The officer will be serious, responsible and conscientious in any position. I think if you work in the spy department, you will definitely have a good news. Some insider information, such as the Japanese, will be very useful to our police officers who work below."
Everett did not give a positive answer, but when he mentioned the Japanese, he immediately showed resentment and cursed: "If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been transferred to the spy unit. Damn, damn Japanese. They have been seeking the position of senior police officer in the police room, and they are so greedy."
"Didn't the Industrial Department withstand the pressure?" Chen Chen also knew some news and asked in confusion.
The frequent actions and protests against Japan in mid-1938 led the Japanese to reiterate their opinions on expanding their participation in the public concession, especially seeking the position of senior police officers.
In this regard, the British and Americans drew a line, that is, "Our view is that we have enough strength and we will not fire anyone and leave the position to the Japanese."
Everett sighed softly and said, "On the surface, this seems to be the case, but the Japanese do not give up. The work department faces increasing pressure, and I guess they will make some concessions sooner or later."
Chen Chen pondered, but did not answer for a moment.
Jennifer smiled and said, "Concessions are limited. Senior positions should not be given, and it may be just an increase in daily recruitment."
Even so, it will have an adverse impact on future actions. But Chen Chen is not so arrogant to kill all the arrests.
Everett seemed to think that speaking too much at the party affected the atmosphere, so he changed the subject, "Shen, your English is really progressing rapidly, surprising."
Chen Chen smiled and said modestly: "I'm just a little fluent, but I can't get rid of the smell of pidgin."
"It's really good!" Jennifer nodded and praised, "Among Chinese people, it's already very good. By the way, why didn't Mr. Chen bring a female companion? Isn't there?"
"This—" Chen Chen was stunned for a moment and said casually: "She is still relatively conservative. I didn't bring her here on such occasions."
At this time, Mason came over to ask Jennifer to dance, which interrupted Jennifer's continued questioning.
And just when the upstairs was lively and joyful, two people were meeting on the first floor.
Even Chen Chen didn't know that Ma Mingyu went directly to the car repair shop to find Chu Jiao and returned here in her car.
Zhao Youcai was responsible for watching the wind and warding down. Ma Mingyu entered the room and asked, "Did you do the things about the ten brothers?"
Chu Jiao shook her head, looking innocent, "What ten brothers, I haven't heard of them."
Ma Mingyu's face relaxed a little, but he did not believe in Chu Jiao. From the case information obtained from the judicial arrest room, he was almost certain that it was Chu Jiao who did it.
"Okay, then tell me, who else has a pistol silencer?" Ma Mingyu leaned on the sofa and looked at Chu Jiao with a smile.
Chu Jiao spread her hands and said, "If my brother can bring it back from the United States, others can't? Why do you think we can only have this thing?"
Ma Mingyu was helpless at the quibbling, smiled bitterly, and said, "You are just too murderous. Kill seven of them in one go, and the bullets are shot. I guess it's you and Zhang Chengfu, and Zhao Youcai's shooting skills should be a little worse."
"Pussy." Chu Jiao felt that she had no momentum in sitting posture, so she imitated Ma Mingyu and even crossed her legs, "Who do you care? Japanese lackeys, damn traitors, isn't this helping you?"
"I'm worried about you--you." Ma Mingyu looked at Chu Jiao, and was helpless and angry. "I don't know where you got the information, but the operation was so bold. Don't think that it would be safe if it was in the concession. The pressure exerted by the Japanese makes it difficult for the police station to be perfunctory. Once extraditioned, the Japanese torture--"
"That's necessary to be caught!" Chu Jiao just refused to admit it, although she could be judged in her words, "You are well-informed, do you know what clues are there in the Dharma Catching Room?"
Ma Mingyu laughed dryly and said, "It is undeniable that it is indeed clean and neat, and no clue is left behind."
Chu Jiao smiled proudly, undoubtedly admitting Ma Mingyu's guess.
This girl is just stubborn.
But Ma Mingyu thought Chu Jiao was more cute and proud, after all, he taught her. But he didn't know that Chu Jiao had a top master behind her.
"What does the 'Blood Flag Sect' mean?" Ma Mingyu was still a little confused about Chu Jiao's thoughts, so he asked, "The tree is so big that it attracts wind. It not only kills people, but also sends letters to the newspaper office and sets bid codes for the target. Are you short of money?"
Chu Jiao shook her head and said, "I am not short of money, but it doesn't hurt if I have too much money. Think about it, make the reputation of the "Blood Flag Sect" so that those bad guys can be shocked and scared, and can still squeeze out money. I want to use this money to do good things. Have you forgotten the beggars surrounding me in the temple?"
So that's the case. I think it's good, but it's hard to make up for this girl's kindness.
"Be careful, the Japanese and traitors are infiltrating the concession more and more." Ma Mingyu persuaded with concern: "In the future, I will try to meet you as little as possible. Who knows when I will be stared at!"
"In your public identity, the Japanese have no evidence, and the police station will not arrest and extradition." Chu Jiao also heard Ma Mingyu's care and said reciprocatingly: "The biggest possibility of revealing his identity is that there are traitors around you. Therefore, you must be particularly careful, don't trust others easily, and run away when you see something is not good."
Ma Mingyu nodded, was silent for a while, and said, "Renting the house to the police is a good cover. They are having a party on it, and they are very furious, and they can cover it even more."
"Maybe I will get his help in the future!" Chu Jiao said obscurely, but she was not worried that Ma Mingyu could guess it.
"I have investigated this policeman named Shen. It's not a simple guy. Of course, if he doesn't deal with the Japanese, there is indeed a possibility of help." Ma Mingyu said: "But people's hearts are changing, so don't believe it easily, don't let him notice your abnormality."
Believe it? Chu Jiao smiled in her heart, but still nodded seriously.
"I got a few pistols for you, Ruger p08." Ma Mingyu continued: "In the future, after killing some big targets, if you don't claim responsibility in the newspaper, I can report to the above, saying that we did it and you can get a lot of bonuses."
Chu Jiao smiled and said, "You can still be promoted, right? Okay, I can consider this, and use the bonus to buy weapons. In fact, you can completely recommend to your boss to hire the "Blood Flag Sect" to complete some difficult tasks."
Hiring?! Ma Mingyu thought about it and said slyly to Chu Jiao: "Then you will accept other people's employment, as long as the price is right?"
Chu Jiao smiled and nodded vigorously, "How is this method? I think it's good."
