Chapter 245
"That's all for today, rest early."

Lao Deng smiled and said to Xiao Bi that Xiao Bi did not have a high degree of education and had only studied for a few years, but he had great sympathy for the majority of workers and peasants, and he was diligent and studious, so he was a good seed.

He has been studying with him recently, and Xiao Bi has made it clear that after studying with Lao Deng, he will go to a more difficult base area to teach more people what he has learned, especially the soldiers in the base area.

Lao Deng believes that Xiao Bi will become a very important teacher in the base area in the future.

In the monitoring point, several people watched them turn off the lights, and then went to eat.

The electric fan was whistling, and a team member smiled and said to Yan He: "Captain, we are much more comfortable with this guy."

In the hot summer, the cool wind blowing is not to mention so refreshing.

"This is because the team leader loves us and specially helped us apply."

Yan He is also very satisfied with the electric fan, the house was unbearably hot without it before, and what everyone likes to do most is to go out and take a shower.

Otherwise, sticky and smelly sweat will be very uncomfortable.

"Arrange the people on duty, and rest the rest."

After eating supper, Yan He ordered that the team leader will naturally not stay here at night, and he, the team leader, is in charge here.

In response to the surveillance of the Red Party, they must not leave people for 24 hours, so that as long as there is any movement of the Red Party, they will not be able to hide it from them.

In the dead of night, Yan He went back to sleep in a separate room, where there was an electric fan, blowing a comfortable wind, and he slept soundly and sweetly.

This is exactly the fan that Bao Shengqun manipulated. The rapidly rotating blades slowly increase the heat inside.

Yan He, who was sleeping with the wind blowing on Zhengxiang, didn't know that the fan's heat was about to reach its limit.

The heat intensified at the base, and a little spark came out.

The fan was still turning, Yan He turned over and continued to dream.

The small flame grew bigger and bigger, igniting the sundries on the table after a while, and soon a large pillar of fire sprang up, and the covering curtains next to it were ignited, and the whole room instantly turned into a big fire.

"Where did the smoke come from?"

The people on duty outside smelled a strange smell just now, but they couldn't find the reason. Now that smoke kept coming into their room, the people on duty and monitoring immediately found out that something was wrong.

When he opened the door of the captain's bedroom, he was instantly stunned there.

"Let's go into the water."

It took several seconds for the team members to howl at the top of their voices. Yan He was awakened from his sleep. He only felt the heat, but he didn't realize that his room was on fire while he was asleep.

The fan stopped spinning at some point, and the whole body was on fire.

Yan He was stunned, and the yelling of the team members woke up the other people. Seeing the fire, many people immediately went to the water source to put out the fire.

Yan He didn't care about putting on his clothes, and ran out wearing only his shorts. He was still in shock and looked at the fire in the room. He didn't know how it started. If the team members were not clever, they opened the door of his bedroom in time and woke him up. If you kill him, maybe he will be burned to death inside.

Thinking of this, he shuddered.

The flames had already burst out from the roof, not to mention the team members shouted just now, many neighbors were woken up, and found that the flames here were all in motion, and came to help put out the fire.

These houses are all connected. If the fire cannot be controlled, it is very likely that their houses will be burned down as well.

Lao Deng and Xiao Bi were also awakened. They quickly put on their clothes and came out. They noticed that there was a fire diagonally opposite, and without thinking too much, they hurriedly picked up a bucket to help put out the fire.

"not good."

Yan He's face changed, they were still monitoring the Red Party on the opposite side, and a fire on their side might alarm the people on the opposite side.

"Quick, follow me to catch someone."

Yan He snatched the clothes from his subordinates and put them on quickly. Fortunately, they had been monitoring for several days, and the subordinates had extra clothes, and all his clothes were in the room.

His gun was also in the room, so who dared to take it, it was probably all burned.

"boom."

Lao Deng took Xiao Bi just after receiving the water, when there was a sudden explosion sound in the burning room, which sounded like a gunshot.

This voice made Lao Deng instantly alert.

"Xiao Bi, come here."

Lao Deng greeted Xiao Bi, dragged him to hide in a dark place, surrounded by people fighting the fire, chaotic, no one noticed them at all.

Soon he saw that at least a dozen people rushed into their house.

They have been exposed, and some spies will arrest them again.

Looking at the house on fire, Lao Deng felt lingering fear, and ran out without thinking about dragging Xiao Bi.

There is nothing valuable and important at home, only their false identities. The secret agents have already rushed in. They have no chance to go back to get these things and must flee as soon as possible.

"Walk."

Taking advantage of the chaos, Lao Deng took Xiao Bi to leave quickly, and after making sure that no one was following him, he quickly took Xiao Bi to another safe house.

On the other side, Yan He entered the room and found that the people inside were no longer there, so he fired several shots angrily.

The gunshots scared the firefighters away, and when Yan He realized that the Red Party living here might be involved in the firefighting, he hurried out again.

But there was no sign of them outside.

The person they were closely monitoring escaped because of a fire.

"Old Deng, what's going on."

It wasn't until the safe house that Xiao Bi dared to ask in a low voice. Old Deng patted him and said in a deep voice, "We've been exposed. A spy entered our house just now."

Everyone is fighting the fire, and there is no well in their house, so the neighbors who are fighting the fire will not run to their house.

At this late hour, even if there were thieves who took advantage of the fire to steal things, there would not be so many people. Lao Deng did not have any luck. So many people must be spies.

In addition to the suspected gunshots before, he also heard several consecutive gunshots when he fled, further confirming this guess.

Fortunately, this sudden fire, otherwise they would not have discovered the existence of the spies, let alone have the chance to escape.

It doesn't matter to him, after working for so many years, he has already put life and death aside, but it would be a pity if Xiao Bi sacrificed with him.

"spy."

Xiao Bi was taken aback. How could they have spies here, and when did the spies target them.

"Old Deng, there are not many people who know we are here." Xiao Bi was very smart, and immediately thought that they might have been betrayed.

"Lao Shi hasn't come for a few days?"

Old Deng suddenly asked, Shi Haiyang is his downline, and usually comes to him to report some work to him.

Except for Shi Haiyang, only his upline Lao Hu knew he was here.

"Seven or eight days." Xiao Bi thought for a while and replied in a low voice.

Lao Deng's face was gloomy. If Lao Hu had rebelled, the spies would probably have done it long ago. The situation just now was obviously that the spies were watching him secretly. If it wasn't for the sudden fire, the spies would not have come to arrest him.

From this point of view, Shi Haiyang is very likely to be arrested and rebellious.

And the day before yesterday was the day when he and Shi Haiyang made an appointment to meet, but Shi Haiyang didn't show up.

It's normal for them to be unable to show up on time for their kind of work. Lao Deng didn't doubt it at the time, but now that he found out about the spy and suspected Shi Haiyang, he immediately understood that it wasn't that he didn't come because of something, but that he couldn't come at all.

There were obvious signs of torture on Shi Haiyang's face, how could he come to see him.

Fortunately, Shi Haiyang didn't know his safe house, otherwise he would run away right now, but he only has this safe house, and if he runs again, he will have nowhere to go.

As for going to Lao Hu's house, he didn't even think about it.

Now that he was in danger, he didn't know if someone was watching him in the dark, so it was absolutely impossible for him to go to Lao Hu at this time.

"Old Deng, did Lao Shi betray us?"

Xiao Bi asked cautiously, he is not stupid, there are not many people who know them, and now they are suddenly exposed, if it is not his own carelessness, then someone must have betrayed them.

There are not many people who can betray them, Lao Deng suddenly asked Shi Haiyang, naturally he suspected him.

"Without evidence, none of our comrades can be suspected now."

Old Deng shook his head, he didn't want to believe that Shi Haiyang had betrayed them, but right now Shi Haiyang was indeed the most suspicious person.

Whether it is him or not, Lao Deng will verify it in the daytime.

"What about people?"

Tan Wenbo, the leader of the second team of the Intelligence Division of the Party Affairs Investigation Department, rushed over after receiving a call late at night.

The fire has been extinguished. Fortunately, there is a pond next to it, and the monitoring point they rented is not a purely wooden structure, otherwise it is likely to cause a bigger fire.

Yan He and the others all lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.

"Yan He."

Tan Wenbo yelled angrily, and Yan He raised his head immediately: "Team leader, we don't know where the people went. The fire was so sudden. By the time we reacted and wanted to arrest people, they had already run away."

The fire has been extinguished, and the person hasn't come back yet, so what else could he be if he ran away.

"asshole."

Tan Wenbo slapped Yan He on the face, Yan He didn't dare to move, despite the burning pain on his face.

The team leader used a lot of strength, and Yan He deeply felt his anger.

The people ran away, and it was useless for them to stare at them for so long. Shi Haiyang only knew his upline, and didn't know the whereabouts of the other Red Party members.

I thought that by catching Shi Haiyang, I would capture more Red Party members along the way, make a good contribution, and show my face, but now it's all right, nothing is left.

The key is that the section chief of this case knows it, and the director knows it too, and has high expectations of them.

What does this make him explain to the section chief and division chief?
Early the next morning, the Party Affairs Investigation Office was filled with a strange atmosphere. Bao Shengqun didn't inquire about anything, but noticed that all the people from the second intelligence team had returned.

"What did you eat, and how did it cause such a big fire?"

In Old Ghost Xu's office, he was swearing at people. He was swearing at Lin Peilun and Tan Wenbo, the chiefs of the intelligence department. He had lost a lot of points with the old man in the previous rape case. The Intelligence Section screwed up.

"Virgin, people from the technical department have already gone to investigate, and the preliminary judgment is that the fire was caused by improper use of electrical appliances."

Lin Peilun, chief of the intelligence department, explained bravely.

"Electrical appliances, what electrical appliances?"

Lin Peilun looked at Tan Wenbo. He had never been to the monitoring point, and Tan Wenbo was directing the monitoring point.

"It seems to be an electric fan, Virgo, you know it's too hot now, and the brothers at the monitoring point are working very hard. The electric fan we just received from the General Affairs Department yesterday, could it be that the General Affairs side deliberately used it as a shoddy product? What started the fire?"

In order to clear the blame, Tan Wenbo could only pour dirty water on the General Affairs Division.

"asshole."

Old Xu threw the water cup in his hand angrily, and the water cup hit Tan Wenbo directly. Despite the hot tea flowing on his body, Tan Wenbo did not move at all.

Tan Wenbo is shirking responsibility, Old Ghost Xu knows this very well.

But his words made Old Ghost Xu wonder, did the General Affairs Division really tamper with the equipment in order to make money?
He didn't expect to do it intentionally, shoddy it as a good one, and traded the old for the new. This is the general affairs department's means of making money, and he knows this very well.

"Go ask someone from the technical department to check if there is any problem with the equipment in the general affairs department."

Old Ghost Xu instructed the secretary, and the secretary left quickly, while Tan Wenbo breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Virgo suspects it to the General Affairs Department, the purpose of diverting troubles to the east will be achieved.

In fact, he also suspected that the real cause of the fire was the problem with the equipment provided by the general affairs.

As for someone deliberately doing things, neither he nor Old Ghost Xu thought about it, let alone had any doubts about Bao Shengqun.

It didn't take long for the technical department's investigation results to come out.

It was an electric fan that caused the fire at the monitoring point, but the rest of the electric fans in the General Affairs Department were fine. It was not a problem with the equipment itself, but because they were used improperly.

This result made Old Xu slap the table angrily.

Soon, rumors spread throughout the division that the intelligence department was severely scolded by the division.

In the office, Bao Shengqun was drinking tea leisurely. The action of the intelligence department had obviously failed, and he felt a sense of joy in his heart. No one knew that he did it, let alone think of him.

Even if they find out that the electric fan is on fire, it's okay. Electric appliances are easy to catch fire. Who can blame them for not paying attention?

During the day, Lao Deng walked slowly on the road alone.

He walked through several intersections with no one in a row, and even stopped and waited on purpose to make sure that there was no follower behind him, before carefully coming to the front of the houses.

"Old Deng, why are you here?"

It was Lao Hu who opened the door. Today is not the day they agreed to meet. Lao Deng came suddenly, there must be other reasons.

"Go in and talk." Lao Deng looked back again, and quickly entered Lao Hu's house.

"I was exposed, there were spies in my previous residence."

Lao Deng's first words startled Lao Hu, he quickly walked to the door and looked out, checked the window, finally came to Lao Deng's side, and asked hurriedly: "Tell me more, what happened?"

Lao Hu is a main member of the Nanjing Red Party. His status is the same as that of Director Yang, and he is very important, but he does not have the same line with Director Yang.

Director Yang is in charge of business, while Lao Hu is in charge of digging and transporting talents for the base.

He has a lot more downlines than Director Yang. If something happens to him, it will deal a big blow to the organization.

"last night……"

Lao Deng explained the situation in detail, and then expressed his doubts. Lao Hu is fine. Basically, it can be concluded that Shi Haiyang betrayed them.

Shi Haiyang, a traitor, not only knew of his existence, but also met Lao Hu.

Fortunately, the organization is tight now. Although they have met each other, Shi Haiyang doesn't know the identity of Lao Hu, otherwise Lao Hu will be in danger with him this time.
