"Tell me, how much does it cost?" After Chu Jiao teased her brother, she looked rich and generous, raised her chest and looked at her proudly.

Chu Tian blinked his eyes, not expecting the girl to be so generous, nor expecting the girl to be so rich, but then he felt relieved and stretched out two fingers with a smile.

"Two hundred dollars?" Chu Jiao deliberately showed a look of surprise and waved her hand generously, "Then why are you worried about? The money will be in place today."

Daini smiled happily and touched Chu Tian with her arm.

Chu Tian was so amused that he reached out and pointed Chu Jiao, "Giao, don't make a fuss. It's 20,000 US dollars!"

Wow! Chu Jiao opened her mouth wide, then leaned against the chair, and turned her hair habitually.

"This--" Chu Tian felt that he should not make his sister too embarrassed, so he calmed down and said, "Diani and I can find a way to make up ten thousand, look--"

Chu Jiao's fingers stopped, looked at her brother cunningly, suddenly laughed, and said, "I'm just teasing you! Isn't it just $20,000, I'll get it for you within three to five days. At worst, I'll sell the car dealer."

Chu Tian shook his head quickly and said, "The car dealer cannot sell it, so my dad will definitely not agree."

"I'll find a way to find a way. If you want to sell it or not, you don't have to worry about it." Chu Jiao was confident, picked up the drink and took two big sips, and said, "Then I'll make up for it now."

"Then--" Chu Tian raised his hand, stopped in the air and took it back, feeling that it was unnecessary to instruct his sister again. He was richer than him. It seemed that 20,000 US dollars was nothing.

"bye_bye!" Chu Jiao stood up, hugged Dai Ni gently, then picked up a bag in one hand and casually waved to the brother, which was considered a farewell.

As Chu Jiao left, Dazhong Cangming didn't withdraw his gaze until he watched Chu Jiao get in the car and drive away. His expression was complicated.

"It looks very rich." Heko came back from the bathroom and happened to hear Chu Jiao and others' last words. She sat next to Kurakura and said, "She went to raise money and wanted to lend his brother 20,000 US dollars to do business."

Mutoma Kurako looked up at Hiroko, frowned slightly, and said, "It's 20,000 US dollars, this is not a small amount."

"But she looked full of confidence and said she wanted to sell some car dealer." Heko curled her lips gently, "It turns out she is still a small boss!"

Masaki Kurako stared at Heko and lowered her head for a long time, silently.

…………………

Before the outbreak of the Pacific War, there was not a complete sign, and it could even be said that the war clouds were densely covered.

However, no one expected that war would suddenly come in such a form, and that the Japanese plaster flag would be inserted into East Asia in a very short time.

In other words, the British and American governments, as well as the expatriates, have expectations for war. Otherwise, the United States will not withdraw all Marines in Shanghai, and the United Kingdom will not withdraw the troops stationed in China.

Historically, in the second half of 1941, British and American expatriates began to gradually evacuate, and women, children, and irrelevant personnel all took steamers to Hong Kong, Singapore and Manila.

Compared with the British and American expatriates, the Chinese evacuated Shanghai without interruption.

Some were angry at the Japanese devils' occupation of the country, or were worried about the security situation in Shanghai, or lack of confidence in the business development in Shanghai. Celebrities and wealthy people chose to move one after another, and Hong Kong was undoubtedly the first choice.

Chu Xiongfei was also prepared for this, and his deposits were transferred to Citibank, and some shops were also looking for opportunities to take action.

However, Chu Xiongfei's favorable residence is Hong Kong, not the United States that is thousands of miles away.

Therefore, Chu Xiongfei was cautious about Chu Tian's investment and operation in the United States and did not agree happily. This is also the reason why Chu Tian wanted to borrow money from his sister.

Even she doesn’t know how much Chu Jiao’s net worth is. She may have a lot of cash, but it’s hard to estimate gold, silver, fine and soft, diamonds and jewelry.

Besides, Chen Chen has been secretly taking advantage of these things. For example, Manager Chen’s cousin and Mr. Du through Wan Molin, he also sold a lot of stolen goods in Hong Kong.

No matter what, 20,000 US dollars is not too difficult for Chu Jiao to raise.

He told me that it was three to five days, and Chu Jiao didn't want to be too conspicuous, so she deliberately delayed the time.

When he returned to the car shop, Chu Jiao called Chen Chen. Because Chen Chen opened an account for her and kept depositing the money for selling the stolen money.

At night, Chen Chen used the excuse to repair the car, met Chu Jiao at the car shop, and gave her the account.

"It's almost 50,000?" Chu Jiao looked at the certificate of deposit, showed a silly smile like a money-loving person, and her mouth didn't close for a long time.

Chen Chen reached out and knocked on the table. This look was so that he couldn't stand it.

Chu Jiao came to her senses, coughed embarrassedly, sat up straight, and said, "I will withdraw 20,000 yuan, and the certificate of deposit will be placed in your place."

"What do you want money?" Chen Chen asked casually.

Chu Jiao talked about her brother’s plan and said, “It’s not good. If my brother goes to the United States, my father’s mind may change.”

Chen Chen nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "Why do you think that Chen Baihe?"

Chu Jiao was stunned for a moment and said, "What's going on? Which aspect are you referring to?"

"You said she has a strong ability to comprehend and learn quickly. Did she know how to do it before? She has a foundation?" Chen Chen looked at Chu Jiao and said, "Do you think that it is not normal for her in normal contact?"

Chu Jiao blinked, frowned slightly, and said, "Do you doubt her? I don't think there is any problem with her. Learning quickly means that she is smart, it's not suspicious, right?"

Chen Chen shook his head and said, "I don't just doubt her, but a few more. It mainly analyzes from the timeline. Do you think it should be within two years from the arrangement plan to the school's lurking success?"

Chu Jiao thought for a while and said, "To be precise, it's about one and a half years. Judging from the time we got the information, it's a year before and a half years later. Those who entered the school during this period are questionable. But what if the original student in the school was arrested secretly and rebelled?"

Chen Chen did not say that the five or six people locked in his sixth sense was not convincing.

"I have also investigated this aspect, and there are a few suspects." Chen Chen paused for a moment and continued: "You should not contact the school more recently. Even if you meet students, don't show any strange things. I will do the rest."

Chu Jiao nodded hesitantly and said, "There are more than three months left before the end of the year. You must find the spies during this period. Otherwise, they may be caught and killed by the Japanese on their way to the rear. Rather than that, it is safe to stay in the concession, although it is also temporary."

Chen Chen gently said, "It should be enough time. I have figured out a solution. I will test it one by one and you should be able to see the flaws."

Chu Jiao lowered her eyelids, thought for a while, and reminded: "If you need cooperation, Zhao Youcai and Zhang Chengfu can help me."

"I won't be polite if you need it." Chen Chen stood up and walked out.

…………

Chen Chen originally wanted to give the dog a quick scolding and sent him to the Nanshi to smuggle some weapons and ammunition in order to carry out a more important operation.

Ke Ma Mingyu and others assassinated Lu Ying, the Japanese and puppet police in Nan City. The spies not only increased their vigilance, but also arrested the murderer in a mess.

In this limelight, Chen Chen didn't want to take risks, so he kept the dog, which was just enough to train for a few more days.

After these days of contact, Gouzi has regarded Chen Chen as the most trustworthy elder brother and the most respected master.

So, Chen Chen also knew about Xiaoping.

It happened that my sister's family had moved out, so Chen Chen asked Gouzi to have time to go to Nanshi City, persuaded Xiaoping's family to move in, and took Gouzi to see the house in Shikumen.

After giving Gouzi two days off, Chen Chen began to work on his big move. He did not call Chu Jiao, worried that she had been targeted, but took Cao Yixin with him.

When the pseudo-regime was established, the emergence of secret staff of the secret service of the Nanshi Guards clearly demonstrated the close relationship between various Japanese intelligence agencies and the pseudo-regime.

"Shanghai Island" immediately became a safe haven for spies, intelligence personnel and spies like Casablanca or Lisbon during the war.

In Shanghai, Japan's secret service agencies are roughly divided into seven courses: economy, politics, intelligence, propaganda, finance, construction, and general affairs.

But this is only one of several Japanese intelligence agencies in Shanghai. When leaders of intelligence agencies such as the Japanese Consulate, China News Agency, Japanese military, and military police gather in the Japanese clubs on Wenjian Shi Road to coordinate operations, more than 20 leaders usually attend.

As far as high-level political intelligence work is concerned, the most dynamic of these secret institutions is the famous Mei agency, namely the Japanese secret service organization in East China.

The most important implementer of counter-espionage and secret activities in Shanghai is the secret service of the Japanese military police, whose headquarters is located in the Xinya Hotel on North Sichuan Road, Hongkou District.

Like other parts of China, the Japanese still use Chinese gang organizations and always demand long-term cooperation with the underworld forces.

They believe that this is also the best way to ensure control of the foreigner area in Shanghai.

Because, once they can mobilize these gang forces, they can create unrest, harass the police, arrest anti-Japanese elements and representatives of the government, attack the government's banks, courts and anti-Japanese newspapers, and destroy the stability of China's currency.

This means that they can control the concession area in Shanghai by only gangsters rather than force. The weapons that the Japanese guarantee gang members cooperate with are the opium and gambling industries.

The rapid expansion of the fugitive population in Shanghai has led to a successful business of cooperation between Japanese secret agencies and gang figures, and a steady stream of wealth.

Therefore, Hongji Shantang decided to hold a two-year anniversary celebration dance party in Lido Ballroom. At that time, more than a thousand guests would attend.

Since it is not easy to act in Nanshi for the time being, Chen Chen set his sights on Lidu Dance Hall and wanted to give these shameless traitors a heavy blow.

But after Cao Yixin finished the work, she was not in a hurry and wandered around the concession with Chen Chen, who had disguised himself, experiencing the romantic feeling.

Before he knew it, the rickshaw turned from under an arch into a boulevard.

Chen Chen saw the road name - Moli Ai Road. He looked around and the shops were marked with French shop names. A French sailor wore a hat with a red machine gun pattern and swayed across the market.

The rickshaw stopped in front of a shop. The coachman gasped slightly, spit out a stream of white mist, and said to Cao Yixin: "Madam, this is a perfume shop, which is very famous. All the noble lady comes here to buy it."

Cao Yixin nodded and got out of the car.

Chen Chen shook his head gently, handed his wallet to Cao Yixin, and said, "I'm smoking a cigarette outside, probably not allowed inside."

"Okay, I'll be out soon." Cao Yixin smiled slightly, turned around and entered the store with Xiao Taozi.

She wanted to buy a gift for a friend so that she could be invited to visit with Shen Chen.

Chen Chen lit a cigarette and walked slowly back and forth.

Not far from the shop is a narrow house with green walls. The door of the house is open, and several women are standing or sitting on the porch, staring at him with strange eyes.

A Belarusian man walked out of the porch, with a censorship in his eyes, and asked in a calm and dull voice: "Portuguese, Philippines, Chinese, and Japanese girls are all very clean, which one do you want?"

Chen Chen frowned, and a feeling of disgust rose to his heart. He shook his head, accelerated his pace and walked back quickly.

The rickshaw driver who was also waiting looked at Chen Chen with a strange expression and introduced with a slightest expression: "There is also very famous. If you want to go, just tell the coachman about the green house in the concession."

Chen Chen rolled his eyes and was too lazy to even say "no".

The coachman shrugged his shoulders and shook his head with an incredible expression.

Soon, Cao Yixin walked out and raised an antique bottle in her hand at Chen Chen.

The so-called celebration dance will not arrive in a few days, and the Lidu Dance Hall is open normally, which gives Chen Chen and Cao Yixin the opportunity to steal weapons in.

Bringing it in is not the purpose, hiding it in the dance hall is part of the action plan.

In later movies, I often see a certain agent walking into a place with high security in a high position, and then taking out his weapons in the bathroom water tank or other hidden places.

Chen Chen's approach was the same, pistols, magazines, and bombs were all hidden in for a few days. By the day of the celebration party, he could go in with his hands empty-handed.

As for the invitation, this is not a problem for him, even if it is too late to grab it that day.

Cao Yixin did whatever she asked her to do, never asked Chen Chen's origin, whether Chen Chen had a relationship with the "Blood Flag Sect", or whether he did the previous assassination.

Although she knew that these guesses were almost true, Chen Chen would not say it and not hide it from her before taking action, why would she not be tactful?

However, Chen Chen did not agree to take her with him on the day of the action.

The reason is very simple. Cao Yixin is not an action-oriented agent. Although she has received training, she is not good at it. The two of them have never cooperated, so it is inevitable that they will make mistakes.

Cao Yixin understood this. She was indeed not good at acting. She might become a burden at that time, but instead pulled Chen Chen's back.
