My years of espionage

Chapter 1142 The Orchid Heart
No. 22 Xue Huali Road, the central patrol room and medical room of the French Concession.

The medical officer Lao Huang lit a cigarette and used a firewood stick to get the fire from the coal stove.

The sparks of the cigarette flickered with his every breath.

The incandescent lamp overhead was glowing.

He knew Cheng Qianfan well.

Comrade 'Huo Miao' left in a hurry. If there was anything to say to him, it would be during the contact between the two of them.

After thinking about it carefully, Lao Huang had to accept a result:
Among the two simple sentences between the two of them, one sentence caught his attention.

"Don't let me come back from Tianjin, you'll drink to death", the key point of this sentence is "come back from Tianjin".

Comrade 'Huo Miao' is implying that he will come back, or 'can come back'.

Not to mention the reason why comrade 'Huomiao' went out on business suddenly this time, and whether there were any enemy's secrets in it, just say this sentence, Comrade 'Huomiao' is 'reporting safety'.

Or to put it more precisely, Comrade Huo Miao's words meant that he was not discovered by the enemy. As long as it was not such an extreme situation, apart from other things, he was safe as a lurker.

Thinking of this, Lao Huang felt a little relieved.

In addition, the doctor-looking man next to Cheng Qianfan was obviously weird. He was more like someone monitoring Comrade Huo Miao.

Then, Comrade Huo Miao hinted that he was safe for the time being and could come back. On this basis, he was accompanied and monitored closely.

What does this mean?
Explain that Comrade Huo Miao was assigned to carry out some kind of extremely secret mission. This kind of monitoring is not because of any suspicion, but more out of the need for confidentiality in principle.

Old Huang was smoking a cigarette, and based on the only words and expressions he had, and his understanding of his revolutionary comrades, he drew his own analysis and conclusions.

However, my intuition told Lao Huang that Comrade Huo Miao should have something to say to him.

Or, to take it a step further, something had been said to him, he just hadn't 'found' it yet.

So, where is what Comrade Huo Miao wants to say hidden?
……

Lao Huang stared at the wine bottle on the table.

This is what he 'snatched back' from Comrade 'Huo Miao' before he left.

The more he pondered, the more he felt that the key to solving the problem lay in this wine bottle.

Comrade 'Huo Miao' will not come to grab his bottle 'for no reason'.

Although on the surface, it's normal for 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' to scold him for drinking with a smile, and snatch his bottle as if about to throw it.

However, Lao Huang knew that in that situation, in the only situation where he could not attract attention, any words and actions of Comrade Huo Miao needed to be pondered and interpreted repeatedly.

Lao Huang set himself up against the fire again and lit a cigarette.

While the sparks of the cigarette were flickering, his dim eyes stared at the wine bottle, and he thought about it repeatedly in his mind.

"I'm on official business, I can't help myself."

Comrade 'Huo Miao' said so, and then grabbed the wine bottle in his hand.

Then Comrade Huo Miao glanced at the wine bottle, and cursed again, "You old bastard, let's not talk about you drinking again during work, just talk about this wine, you drink less, don't let me come back from Tianjin, you And drink to death."

It's still the same sentence!
Lao Huang rubbed his chin, frowning in thought.

After Comrade Huo Miao snatched the wine bottle, he glanced at it.

Very natural movement.

There seems to be no abnormality.

but--

Lao Huang's eyes lit up, and Comrade Huomiao's next sentence was "You old bastard, let's not talk about you drinking again during work, just talk about this wine, drink less, don't let me come back from Tianjin, and you Drunk to death. '

At this time, he noticed the "just talk about this wine" in Comrade 'Huo Miao''s sentence!
Just say this wine!

This wine—

What happened to the wine?
This wine is the Fenjiu that Lao Huang has been drinking all this time. He did a favor to a friend, and the friend gave him a gift in return.

This wine—

The taste is mellow!

The wine itself is naturally no problem.

So, just the wine bottle?

What's wrong with the wine bottle.

Lao Huang picked up the wine bottle and looked left and right under the incandescent lamp.

Suddenly, he noticed something strange on the label on the wine bottle:
There are nail marks!

To be precise, the fingernail scratched and buckled somewhere on the label.

There was no trace of this before.

Old Huang confirmed this very much.

……

As an ace agent of the Teko red team and an excellent intelligence agent, he pays special attention to the affairs around him. Let’s talk about this wine bottle. He drinks from the bottle and rubs his palms. There is such a pick-up mark on his body, it is impossible for him not to have an impression.

Then, the only explanation is that this trace was made by Comrade Huo Miao.

Lao Huang can already imagine in his mind the actual situation of Comrade Huo Miao doing these things:
Comrade 'Fire' snatched the bottle from him.

Glanced at the bottle.

This glance is very important, Comrade Huo Miao is confirming whether this bottle of wine is the brand he has.

verified.

Then holding the wine bottle in his hand, when he said those words in his mouth, his fingernails left a mark somewhere on the bottle.

The whole movement was done in one go, very natural, and at the same time, he quickly took back the wine bottle, not to mention the suspicious doctor next to Comrade Huo Miao, didn't even Lao Huang not realize that there was something strange at the time?

wrong!

Lao Huang realized that he hadn't considered thoroughly enough. To be exact, when Comrade Huo Miao looked at the bottle, he was not only confirming the bottle, but also confirming the location of the label on the bottle.

Lao Huang's expression was serious. He stared at the label on the bottle that Comrade Huo Miao had dug out with his fingernails:
Factory address: No. 3 Jiulong Bridge outside Tongji Gate!
This is Fenjiu produced by Huafengyu Distillery, and this address is exactly the address of Huafengyu Distillery.

No. 3 Kowloon Bridge outside Tongji Gate!
Is there something wrong with this address?

Lao Huang thought hard.

Finally, his heart moved.

Where is No. 3 Kowloon Bridge outside Tongji Gate?

In Nanjing!
Huafengyu Fen Liquor is Fen Liquor produced in Nanjing!

Comrade 'Flame' is implying—

Nanjing?

Why hint at Nanjing?

It suddenly occurred to him that in the letter notice from the police station, Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng was on a business trip to the French Concession in Tianjin.

Before that, he was still thinking about what happened in Tianjin that he needed to send someone from Shanghai, and he left in such a hurry?
It's weird.

And considering that Comrade 'Huomiao' was most likely sent by the enemy to perform a certain secret mission, the question now arises, did Comrade 'Huomiao' really go to Tianjin?
Intelligence work has always paid attention to confidentiality, and at the same time it is also false and real.

Well, now this 'Nanjing'...

Are you implying that you are actually going to Nanjing, not Tianjin?
Old Huang fell into deep thought.

……

"Ma'am, Brother Hao is back."

Seeing Li Hao driving back, Datou shouted happily.

"Sister-in-law looking for me?" Li Hao got out of the car and immediately asked after hearing this.

"My wife asked Brother Hao why you didn't come back for dinner before dinner," Datou said.

He looked around and said in a low voice, "Brother Hao, I told you that you might work overtime in the patrol room. My wife doesn't seem too happy about it."

"I know."

Li Hao patted the big head on the shoulder, he tidied up his clothes, and entered the living room, "Sister-in-law, I'm back."

"Xiao Bao, take Xiao Zhi Zhi to play." Bai Ruolan handed the Xiao Zhi Zhi in her arms to Xiao Bao.

Xiaobao took the little nephew steadily, made a face at Brother Haozi, and walked away holding Xiao Zhizhi.

"Lizi, go make a pot of tea."

"Yes, ma'am."

Li Hao noticed that his sister-in-law had already dismissed all the "miscellaneous people and others".

"Before Brother Fan left, did you have anything to say?" Bai Ruolan straightened her face and asked crisply.

"Yes, sister-in-law." Li Hao said quickly.

"Since you have something to bring, why don't you go home quickly, where did you go to drink cat urine?" Bai Ruolan frowned, and scolded her uncle, "Or brother Hao, do you think drinking is bigger than the sky?"

"It's Haozi's fault." Li Hao's complexion changed, and he quickly apologized sincerely, "Sister-in-law, please calm down, because I have to discuss with my colleagues on some official business, I missed my return home."

"I think before Qian Fan leaves, he will definitely entrust his entire family to you." Bai Ruolan sighed slightly, "Sister-in-law, I am a woman, so there are some things I shouldn't have said, but there is nothing my brother can't say."

She looked at Li Hao and reprimanded, "Stop pissing on those horses in the future. Brother Fan is not at home for the time being, so I will take care of you."

"Yes, my sister-in-law taught me the lesson." Li Hao said quickly.

He suddenly realized that he had committed a seemingly insignificant thing, but actually did a poor job after thinking about it:

He shouldn't be in a hurry to discuss things with Haozai and Taozi after get off work, but should go home directly.

Normal logic, at this time, what is more important than returning to Cheng Mansion to report Brother Fan's situation to sister-in-law, and arranging the security work of Cheng Mansion?

Brother Fan's business trip to Tianjin was so sudden that he caught them all by surprise. At that time, he only wanted to discuss things with Haozai, Taozi and others, but he didn't notice such a mistake.

He looked at his sister-in-law, and suddenly had a glimmer of understanding in his heart.

And then more of a shock!

Sister-in-law reprimanded him, is that okay?
Of course, sister-in-law is like a real sister, let alone reprimanding, even beating him, he is willing to be punished.

However, at this moment, Haozi had a feeling that his sister-in-law scolded him, it seemed that she was not only reprimanding him because of his 'greedy drink', but to remind him of what he did wrong!

Yes, it was wrong for him not to go home in time to report Brother Fan's situation to his sister-in-law.

This is wrong, not that is wrong!

The meaning is different.

Li Hao glanced at his sister-in-law, and instinctively told him that she was hinting and reminding him, but he had no proof.

……

"What did Qian Fan say?" Seeing Hao Zi's sincere apology, Bai Ruolan nodded in satisfaction, turned to the matter, and asked casually.

"Brother Fan said that during the time he is not at home, sister-in-law is in charge of everything at home." Li Hao's heart moved, and he said, "If there is something that I can't make up my mind about, let me ask my sister-in-law for advice."

"Is there anything you can't make up your mind about?" Bai Ruolan took a look at Li Hao and examined her eyes. Suddenly, she chuckled, "Haozi, tell my sister-in-law honestly, do you have a sweetheart?"

"Sister-in-law—" Li Hao was shocked, and then embarrassed. He didn't know why sister-in-law mentioned this suddenly, but she just hit what was on his mind, and couldn't help but blush.

"Oh, it seems that something really happened. Tell me, which girl is it? I'll be your matchmaker." Bai Ruolan said in surprise, as if she didn't expect to hit Zaozi with a random shot, her brows and eyes were full of joy, and she asked .

"Sister-in-law, it's nothing to do with shadowing." Li Hao blushed.

"Still shy." Bai Ruolan pursed her lips and smiled when she saw Li Zi coming over with a teapot, she couldn't help nodding, "It turns out that someone else was there, so I'm sorry to say so."

Saying that, Bai Ruolan got up with a smile, "Lizi, bring the tea to the study, I have something big to discuss with you, Brother Haozi, he is embarrassed to be here."

"Yes, ma'am." Li Zi couldn't hold back, and smiled.

……

Upstairs, the study.

"Okay, Lizi, you can go out." Bai Ruolan waved her hand, then signaled Li Hao to sit down and drink tea, "Don't be restrained, tell your sister-in-law, which girl do you like?"

Chestnut covered her mouth with a smile and left.

Li Hao scratched his head in embarrassment, he glanced at his sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, stop making fun of me."

It was also at this moment that he suddenly realized that he and his sister-in-law were alone in a room:
At this moment, Li Hao was very sure that his sister-in-law was definitely implying that he had done something wrong before!
What a beautiful sister-in-law.

He often heard Brother Fan use "Hui Zhi Lan Xin" to describe his sister-in-law, and now he finally understands.

As far as the present is concerned, the sister-in-law just deliberately teased him, and brought him to the study for questioning under the pretext of interrogating him about his marriage.

In fact, a private space is created to discuss confidential matters.

Sure enough, then he heard his sister-in-law ask.

"Tell me, what else did Qian Fan say?" Bai Ruolan looked at Li Hao, "Is there something wrong with him? I think you're very preoccupied."

"Brother Fan didn't say anything more." Li Hao said thoughtfully, "Brother Fan is fine, don't worry, sister-in-law."

Now that he knew that his sister-in-law was a very intelligent person, he thought about how to speak, how to deal with smart people without telling the truth, knowing it is a science.

"You don't need to be coaxed." Bai Ruolan sighed, and said, "I know that Qian Fan has done a great business outside, and the dangers involved can be imagined. He didn't tell me anything because he was afraid that I would worry."

Bai Ruolan wiped her lips with a handkerchief, "Even if you don't say anything, you should still be worried."

She looked at Li Hao, "Qian Fan suddenly went out on business, which is really suspicious. As the saying goes, it's a demon. There is no warning about this kind of business trip, so it can be seen as strange."

Bai Ruolan showed a nervous expression, and asked, "Is there someone trying to harm him?"

Li Hao looked at his sister-in-law, and nodded immediately, "We don't know the details, so we are more worried."

He had to admit that his sister-in-law was too smart and completely dominated the direction of the topic. All he had to do was follow the topic and adapt to the situation.

Sister-in-law is worried about Brother Fan's safety, which in itself is the most suitable topic that can be discussed!
