This man is so shrewd and somewhat clever.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sit in this seat.

Now it is certain that Hantou rarely goes to the dock on the Jialing River.

Most of them are along the Yangtze River.

So let’s start with the laborers working at the docks along the Yangtze River.

Let's see if anyone has seen the fool go to places that don't suit his temperament.

But the workers working at the docks along the Jialing River cannot be ignored, because it can be judged from Xia Tuo's words that Hantou still has a certain reputation.

You can't say that the fool is not good at lurking.

On the contrary, it should be said that he lurks very well.

I can only hope that such a reputation will allow people to see what he has done.

This will break the current investigative deadlock.

Make a hole.

Therefore, asking Xia Tuo only allowed them to investigate the docks on the Yangtze River first, and they could not give up investigating the docks on the Jialing River. It seemed to have no effect.

But Song Shutang was very happy.

Because the more people who know Hantou, the greater the chance that he will be seen.

This is good news.

After getting the answers they wanted, Song Shutang and Long Hao were ready to start investigating.

This investigation work is not as good as that of our neighbors.

It can be over in a short time.

It may take a few days, but both of them are looking forward to it.

Before parting, Song Shutang asked Xia Tuo: "Have you ever seen Han Tou go to any strange places, units, institutions, etc.? It just doesn't match his living habits."

Xia Tuo, who was in front of him, was naturally among those who asked.

Now that we have met, of course I have to ask directly.

Faced with this problem, Xia Tuo frowned and thought hard: "This doesn't exist."

"You can contact us if you think of it later." Long Hao said in a routine manner.

"Don't worry, I'll think about it carefully when I get back. If I think of anything, I'll let you know as soon as possible."

"Then that's it for today."

"Do you still need me to follow you to the pier?" Xia Tuo asked proactively.

"No need." Long Hao said.

Since you are a worker on the dock, you have to ask.

It doesn't matter whether Xia Tuo follows or not.

If he followed, he wouldn't be able to help. Instead, he would attract some attention.

Secondly, this person is smart.

I'm afraid that if we follow the investigation together, we will be deceptive in the future. After all, there are more people who don't know the truth.

It's not good to let Xia Tuo climb along the pole.

After being rejected, Xia Tuo was indeed a little disappointed, but he left simply.

If his goal cannot be achieved, then he cannot leave a bad impression on the other party.

After a short period of contact, this Xia Tuo behaved very appropriately.

"No wonder this man can be a foreman. Now that he is older, he may have less drive, so he will be content with the status quo. Otherwise, with his character, he would go further." Long Hao said as he looked at Xia Tuo's leaving figure.

Song Shutang also turned away and said: "It's not that I'm too old to be content with the status quo, but that the world is in trouble. It's better to stay high than to hold on."

As for the current situation in the mountain city.

It was common to be attacked by Japanese air raids.

Many respectable and powerful people will die here.

Not everyone had time to hide in a bomb shelter.

In terms of age, Xia Tuo was in the prime of life.

Just look at the current situation.

There's no need to go to camp.

It may be that in the end, it is all in vain, so it is better to guard one-third of an acre of land.

Song Shutang and Long Hao came to the dock, took Hantou's photo and started asking.

Most people do know Hantou.

At least I've heard of it.

But the results of asking are not very good. After all, everyone is busy every day and doesn't go shopping much.

Don't tell me whether the fool will go somewhere.

Even if they go there, they won't be able to see it.

But this is just the first pier. There are many more piers behind, so Song Shutang and the two of them are not in a hurry.

I asked like this for a whole day.

We only visited three piers.

After all, there are many workers on the dock, and you have to ask.

Maybe the one person you missed is the key.

Since it's a troubleshooting, don't be afraid of trouble.

Naturally, I went back to rest in the evening. After all, there were very few ships arriving at the pier at night, and the workers all went home to rest.

If you go to each home and ask.

Then it would be a waste of time.

Just the time spent on the road is too much.

Moreover, Song Shutang and Long Hao also need to rest, so we will naturally talk about it tomorrow.

The two left from the pier and returned to Xialuojiawan.

They don't need to report to the Intelligence Section these days. If they don't go in the morning, they don't have to go in the evening.

Xia Tuo was also busy at the dock today.

It is more about commanding and improving relationships with cargo owners and ship owners of cargo ships.

But Xia Tuo did not leave immediately after work.

Instead, wait for a while at the pier.

Soon I saw someone coming.

This person is also dressed as a laborer, and he is also working at the dock today.

"Talking as we walk," Xia Tuo said.

They all know each other, and no one would think it strange to talk to them together.

The person who met Xia Tuo was about the same age as him.

"What's wrong?" the man asked Xia Tuo who was standing beside him.

Xia Tuo came here today to inspect his work. When they came, their eyes met, and he knew that something was wrong with Xia Tuo.

So we met after work.

"Do you still remember that the fool I told you before was actually a spy?" After Xia Tuo asked, he also greeted the workers who were leaving work. He was not stingy and strict, but more friendly to everyone.

Get together.

"Remember, I have taken the time to report to my superiors before. The organization recognizes your kind actions, but you never noticed that the other party was a Japanese spy. It was your work mistake."

"I understand." Xia Tuo also had nothing to say when he mentioned this matter.

He and Hantou are quite familiar.

The two interacted a lot.

But did he ever doubt Han Tou's identity?

No!

Never.
