At night, Jinkou is never short of lights, shadows, and sounds. Hongwan Pingan Bridge is the oldest Japanese overseas street among them. Although the surrounding shops are not large, they are rare to have a complete variety of tastes and elegance.In the four months since the East Japanese military occupied Jinkou, the curfew has not been completely lifted, but the areas where these expatriates gather enjoy additional privileges.If it is said that the modern world of the concession wakes up from the first lights, then here, the style of the East has just begun to flourish.

A few rickshaws passed through the street with plain paper lanterns hanging on the corners of the eaves, like a breeze blowing through wind chimes with uneven heights. The back door of the teahouse.Two well-dressed women in Wu suits reveal their figures from under the fine tarpaulin, followed by three men carrying piano cases and so on.Wuzi had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when she saw this, she greeted her and said, "Sister Liangzi, just now a guest froze in the front room and insisted on seeing you tonight."

When Yun is invited to a banquet, according to the rules, he has to go through the tea house, and the itinerary has been arranged for each night, so there are some mistakes.What's more, Doujia Tea House is also one of the most elegant places in Tianjin, and it is famous for rejecting visitors without an introducer, which has never been heard of.Dou Liangzi couldn't help but be amazed to see Wuzi's expression on the opposite side, he recalled the guests he knew, and couldn't remember who among those high-ranking officials could make such a fuss, so he asked, "What did the master say?"

"I just appease the man and say that my sister didn't come back from the banquet, so I invite him to sit in the 'Ji Chun' room." Wuzi turned her head to look at the brightly lit room, and the flower spikes in her hair sparked a stream of light, which flickered inadvertently. "Looking at the meaning of the master, it seems that he wants to wait for my sister to come back and see if she has been introduced by someone, so as not to be rude to the distinguished guest..."

The Doujia tea house has been in China for quite a long time, and there are not many people who belong to it, but it is the authentic Jingluo style, and it is not affordable for ordinary people, usually only at the invitation of the rich in the city.Now that the Eastern Japanese army is stationed in Jinkou, and the chief of the army is far away from his hometown, he was introduced to come here for fun, and he should not be too upright, so gradually new faces appeared who changed clothes and changed.The tea house also hopes to use the power of the military to increase its status and provide shelter. It is reasonable to be so cautious because it is unwilling to offend strangers rashly in this season.

Dou Liangzi knew that the stage name of Wuzi who came to pass the news was changed to Songzi. She had always been pure in heart and was quite close to herself.Listening to his few words, my heart seems to be connected organically, suddenly I hit a sudden, but in a flash, I just casually replied: "What did that person say?"

"I was not in front of me, and I didn't recognize it. I heard a few words, and it seemed that I had some friendship with Beijing Zhongzuo. But when I was leading the way, I smelled a lot of alcohol on him, maybe—" Maiko dragged his voice deliberately, Xintao Under the bun-like hair, the finely drawn eyebrows and eyes are curved like a moon, and the half-painted cherry lips are curved, with a look of innocence, "I really miss my sister Fangzi. I don't know who drank too much in the tavern, so I got so excited. Fortunately, he was not directly beaten out!"

Dou Liangzi knew she was playing around and was about to hit her, so she had expected her reaction, Yingying smiled and ran away from the house.There was a vague commotion coming from the adjacent shop, but only candlelight was left nearby, illuminating the bluestone slabs under the wooden clogs, like a flowing spring.Dou Liangzi looked down, and he had roughly guessed the person in his heart.Mask-like delicate makeup concealed a moment of astonishment, and Wu Fumei still had an elegant demeanor. She nodded slightly to a group of luthiers and men, and then walked towards the rest room of the owner of the tea house.

The lights of the Ping An Bridge are almost dimmed, but fortunately, the busy work of the Yuners has not yet ended, and no one will pay attention to whether there are more unknown secrets hidden in the many shallow singing and dancing rooms.When Dou Liangzi appeared in Ji Chunya's room, she was still dressed in the exquisite and gorgeous Ji Kongmu style Wufu in color of millet and plum. A relatively safe space was separated by a sliding door painted with local folk paintings. The two stared at each other, almost silent. asphyxia.

Under the lantern paper embellished with Hanlan patterns, the candles were burning quietly, against which the face covered with white was as delicate as porcelain.Dou Liangzi stood in front of the door, looked at the handsome young man opposite, and suddenly smiled: "Why, Jiu Chuan-san insisted on seeing me, but he stopped talking when he came?"

There was still a vague smell of alcohol in the room, Shigeyoshi Hisakawa just sat at the table, pressing a roll of white newspaper under his hands, it didn't look like a published layout, but a sample that had just been finalized and not yet printed.His eyes were locked with anger, as deep as a chasm under the hazy yellow light and shadow, but surprisingly bright: "Where is the boss, I want to see him."

Dome Ryoko stood there calmly, her skirt straight, like an unconscious puppet.Before the boss left, she had mentioned something about today's situation, but she really didn't expect Shigeyoshi Hisakawa to find him in this way: he also knew that being smelled of alcohol was the least suspicious excuse, But who can guarantee that the exchange will not attract real discerning people? This is a real adventure.

"The boss has already left. As you know, the rumors are too tight. In his capacity, it is an exception to be able to come." The words are well-rounded, but inexplicably solemn and awe-inspiring, just like his impeccable tolerance.She looked at Jiu Chuan Shigeyoshi, and said to the worried young brother at home: "You have the radio in your hand, you have the frequency and password directly to the main station, and you know where this is and what the rules are - you shouldn't come here so rashly. It is even more impossible for me, the boss, to come to see you."

Shigeyoshi Hisakawa stood up abruptly, smashed half a roll of newspaper on the table, and slammed it loudly: "You can see clearly, the Japanese army blew up the Shangyang Railway Station, causing 260 nine casualties of teachers and students - a total of 410 people in the Civil Court! You clearly told him that the Japanese army was going to bomb Shangyang, but you just use them as cannon fodder!" The suppressed voice rolled in your throat, as if shackled by the cumulus of stratus clouds, "This is your Sanmin faction, where you can't keep half of the land and people. !"

On the carved low table, the newspaper was slowly rolled along the edge, occasionally revealing three or two thick black printed blocks.Dou Liangzi looked down at the unrolled paper, her mask-like indifferent expression finally began to loosen.She approached, without reaching out her hand, just sitting in front of him across the table: "I'm sorry, Zhiyuan. We did try our best, but, I think you can understand, from Jinkou to Shanglong, any link Even the slightest mistake can cause irreparable damage, which is what intelligence is about. We will all be disappointed because this is never a one-man battle, take it or die."

Her voice is very low, not fighting or grabbing, like the curling smoke of incense, but it is heard clearly enough: "We have four children in our family, and the three elder brothers are all in the sky. My eldest brother is the first batch Air Force, Zhonghua in 21 years, he was hit on the flank when he was fighting Dongri over Yu'an, so he crashed into the enemy and died together; my second brother Zhonghua entered the aviation school of the Ministry of Military Affairs in 22 years, the engine failed in the air during the night flight, and he made an emergency landing Crashed into a high tower; my third brother participated in the air battle to defend Pingjing, and I watched the fighter plane with his number written on it fall from that sky..."

Shigeyoshi Hisakawa's expression became solemn, facing the woman in front of him with extremely sophisticated makeup and behavior, he suddenly couldn't say a word of indignation.Dou Liangzi's eyes rested on the jumping flames, and her tone was still too peaceful to refuse: "Later, the boss found me and said that I was very similar to a lady who used to be a geisha in Jinkou. I told him that day that everything I owned , he can take it.” The slender figure is wrapped in the complicated and beautiful Wu clothes, but it is as tall and straight as a cold orchid, “Even today, people can still blame the Chinese sky for having thousands of miles of land but allowing others to bully them. They don’t have their own air supremacy, but I know that at least they have tried their best. Not all sacrifices are worthwhile, but if you don’t sacrifice, there will be even less hope.”

In the small space, the two were relatively silent, and there were subtle crackling sounds from all around.Hisakawa Shigeyoshi slowly adjusted his clothes and sat down, the candlelight halo fell in his eyes, like a phantom reflected in a deep pool.He looked at Dou Liangzi silently, as if he wanted to see her spine through the heavy painting: "Please tell the boss, I want him to explain. If these people can't be protected by the Supervisory Bureau, then I don't have to trust him anymore The so-called salvation, I will choose my own method."

"I will convey this for you." Dou Liangzi nodded peacefully, and looked away from where his eyes met.The light in the room was already dim, she stood up and turned on the candle wick without haste, Fang sat back upright, and said in a soft voice: "Now it is imperative for Dongri to march upstream of the Changhe River. It is bound to join the war, and it is not known whether you will return to Tianjinkou to be stationed at that time. Therefore, the main station has already made plans to help you as a military reporter through the relationship between Xiangri News Agency and Shigeru Kitai."

Hisakawa Shigeyoshi sat upright, watching the candlelight flashing across her temples with delicate flower decorations, forming a shallow bay on the table, he couldn't help but slowly frowned: "You mean, I can't hold on anymore?" After wandering among all kinds of characters for a long time, he also vaguely heard a few words about the battle situation. The battle of Tainan in the north is still fiercely stalemate, while in the south, China and Dongri will surely have a big battle in Xiakou.The Chinese soldiers and civilians have never really had an advantage in front of the enemy, which is a hundred times better in terms of equipment and training. Hisakawa Shigeyoshi also thought that the Sanmin faction could not stop the enemy's pace, but it was only at this moment that they suddenly realized that they might give up directly.珧.

"Whether you can hold it or not, you have to be prepared with both hands when doing intelligence. Do you think that's the truth?" Dou Liangzi didn't answer, but just resumed the elegant posture at the beginning, so that no one could see the slightest flaw. "In the past few days, I have been thinking about how to contact you. Unfortunately, this status is really inconvenient. It's a good thing that you came today--Tanaka Rukichi's child can't stay. It's best that you find a way to let him Take a red rock pine to the street, and the comrades in the action team will see it and help you solve it.”

Shigeyoshi Hisakawa's face changed slightly: "He is still a child!" "But he is also an enemy. He will always become a soldier of the East Japan, and he will stick a bayonet into the chest of our compatriots - being kind to the enemy is cruel to our own side." Dou Liangzi The voice was calm and firm, without any hesitation, "As far as I know, Okamura Kennosuke has a relationship with the child's father and wants to develop him to be a love worker. I guess he must have some kind of imminent threat to you , otherwise the boss will not ask me to pay special attention when he is leaving."

There is nothing to refute. Hisakawa Shigeyoshi understands that every word of Dou Liangzi is the truth, so he can only respond bluntly: "I understand." The sound of taiko drums came from the corridor outside the tea room, which was the reminder from the tea room. It was already dark for guests everywhere, and the geisha had to clean up their daily life and prepare for the next day's homework.Dou Liangzi leaned forward to fill two cups of tea, drank a cup first, then Shi Shiran stood still with his clothes on, silently seeing off the guests.Hisakawa Shigeyoshi didn't wait any longer, he knew very well how much trouble today's meeting would cause for the two of them, and there should indeed be a limit.

Dome Liangzi sent him out with an impeccable manner, just like entertaining all guests.At that moment, Jiu Chuan Shigeyoshi was in a trance and heard her whispering in a very soft voice: "I have met Xingjun, and when I saw you, I knew why the boss insisted on picking you. You are very smart, but don't guess it." Who is the old student, unless you want to be the first to be eliminated." Shigeyoshi Jiuchuan has always understood that in this industry, some things can be seen through, but they must not be shown, let alone stated.So he thought, that was probably his hallucination.
