Time flies by, and soon the new year will come, but this year is not an easy one for everyone.

Since the big incident happened at the end of last year, Caishan was very furious and ordered Li Moqun to clean up the operations department. He was shot without explaining the trivial matter clearly.

This cleansing lasted for nearly a month. During that time, everyone in the operation department was in danger, afraid that if they were not careful, they would be caught in prison, and then they would never be able to get out again.

Biantou also suffered a lot of torture. Fortunately, although Biantou and Chen Shen are usually close, Chen Shen was afraid of getting Biantou involved, so he never let Biantou get involved, so there was nothing wrong with Biantou. The suspect was soon released.After this incident, Biantou deeply felt that it was not easy to work in the operation department, so he quit his job in the operation department, and opened a small shop with Zhu Zhu to sell some groceries for a living.

After this major cleansing, the remaining people in the Operations Department were assigned to various offices or security teams, and then the Operations Department was banned, and the original office building of the Operations Department was also used for other purposes.In just over a month, the No. 76 Subsidiary Operation Office, which used to be full of visitors, has become deserted and deserted. No one wants to have anything to do with the word "Operation Department".

After all, even the former Director Bi Zhongliang was an undercover agent sent by Chongqing. This spy not only made waves in the operation department, stole a lot of confidential information, kept No. 76 and the Mei Agency in the dark, and even played tricks on them. It's a shame and a shame that I almost lost the top-secret document 'Project Zero'!Although the "Return to Zero Project" was found in the end, Bi Zhongliang and others were burned to ashes, and most of the enemies were wiped out, but who didn't have the slightest doubt in their hearts?

It's just that everyone chose to be silent by coincidence. They dare not speak, and they don't want to think deeply. Sometimes admitting that they are incompetent is harder than death for these people!

Time passed really fast, and soon, the incident at the operation was forgotten by people.

No matter what happens, life must go on, no matter how difficult it is!

In mid-January, the Shanghai Branch of the Pseudo Rural Clearing Committee issued the "Implementation Rules for the First Phase of Shanghai Clearing Rural Areas", which stipulated the establishment of a household registration implementation committee, and until February 1, the household registration will be checked door-to-door in stages. Men under the age of 2 who have no family members will be returned to their hometowns or arrested.

Immediately afterwards, the Supreme Commander of the Japanese Army and Navy in Shanghai announced measures to restrict grain transportation, stipulating that all rice, wheat, beans, millet, and other grains and their products in the urban area of ​​Shanghai were not allowed to be transported by the Japanese army without the permission of the Japanese army. It is not allowed to be transported out of the Qingxiang area, nor into the blockade of Shanghai.

In February, the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry of the Public Settlement successively closed four large silver buildings on Nanjing Road, Xinfengxiang, Laofengxiang, Fang Jiuxia, and Qiu Tianbao.

Afterwards, the Japanese occupation authorities concentratedly detained the nationals of Britain, the United States, the Netherlands and other countries, and limited the German and Austrian refugee settlements in Shanghai to an area less than one square mile around Tilan Bridge.As a result, a series of questions have been raised which will not be mentioned here.

On March 3th, the Wang Puppet National Commercial Control Association was established in Shanghai, which is in charge of the acquisition and distribution of military supplies and controlled materials...

Over the past few months, the promulgation of many rules and regulations has made Shanghai Bund, which was originally full of traffic, gradually become depressed and deserted.

The Awakening of Insects has passed, the weather is getting warmer, spring has come quietly, everything is recovering, and everything is very beautiful, but the life of Shanghai people has entered a severe winter.

……

But these have nothing to do with Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng.

After the Chinese New Year, Tang Shanhai took Xu Bicheng and went to Suzhou as scheduled to serve as the chairman of the recruiting and reorganization committee and the director of the military affairs department of the Puppet Qingxiang Committee, and Amin was also with him.

After the operation department was banned, Xu Bicheng lost his job, so he simply stayed at home and became her Mrs. Tang with peace of mind. At the same time, it was also for the convenience of taking care of Tang Shanhai who was busy with work.

Ever since Tang Shanhai became the chairman of the committee and the director of the military affairs department, it has become normal for him to go out early and return late every day. He often returns home and still has things to do, and he works until midnight.

When training the puppet army, on the one hand Tang Shanhai looked for various opportunities to insert the general's spies into the puppet army. On the other hand, he also secretly searched for information and passed it back to Chongqing.

From March to May, in three months, Tang Shanhai found no less than 3 pieces of information, large and small, for Chongqing. Several battles have greatly frustrated the prestige of the Japanese.

However, undercover work has always been accompanied by danger. Even though Tang Shanhai was extremely careful, he never left any clues, but the others are not hopelessly stupid after all.Some people found that every time the information was stolen or leaked, it seemed that it had nothing to do with Tang Shanhai on the surface, but after looking deeper, many of them had some indirect connection with Tang Shanhai.

Although this connection is almost non-existent, it still attracted some people's attention.Once or twice can be said to be a coincidence, but three, four or even five times cannot be explained by coincidence. Therefore, it is normal for Tang Shanhai to be suspected, but it is useless to just suspect, and there must be evidence.

So, this afternoon, on his way home from get off work, Tang Shanhai found himself being followed.Tang Shanhai didn't pay attention to the follower, got out of the car generously, and walked to a small vendor.

"Boss, how do you sell this?"

After arriving in Suzhou, Tang Shanhai worked almost every day and rarely had time to rest, let alone accompany Xu Bicheng.Until today, the work of clearing the countryside in the northern Jiangsu area has finally come to an end, and Tang Shanhai was free to go home early to have a good meal with Xu Bicheng.

As the Dragon Boat Festival approaches, all kinds of zongzi, realgar wine, mugwort branches, calamus, exquisite sachets, flower wisps woven with five-color silk threads and other seasonal items are sold everywhere on the street.

"Hey, sir, these things are not expensive. They are all made by themselves. If they get too much, they will be sold by the way."

Seeing the very solid big zongzi wrapped in the baskets of the small vendor, Tang Shanhai felt a little bit for a while. Although these zongzi are good, they must not taste as good as the two boxes of zongzi that Tao Dachun gave him in the past.

Tang Shanhai thought about it, but in the end he didn't buy zongzi. He only bought some mugwort branches, calamus, sachets and flower wisps, and then drove home.The follower followed Tang Shanhai all the time, even after Tang Shanhai entered the house, he did not leave, and stayed outside Tang Shanhai's house to watch.

"Bicheng, I'm back."

Xu Bicheng was cooking in the kitchen, when he heard the sound, he put down the kitchen knife in his hand, wiped his hands with a towel, walked out, took the briefcase from Tang Shanhai's hand, and put it aside, "Why did you come back so early today?"

"There are relatively few things today." Tang Shanhai poured himself a glass of water.

"What did you buy?"

"It's almost the Dragon Boat Festival. I saw rice dumplings sold on the street... I bought some of these to add a festive atmosphere to my home."

Xu Bicheng knew what Tang Shanhai's unfinished words were, and she also thought of the person who gave her zongzi, but she would never receive zongzi from that person again.

Yes, Tao Dachun died, died in that cold winter night.

On that day, all the plans of Tang Shanhai and the others went very smoothly. After Okamura and the others went to pursue the "Return to Zero Project", Tao Dachun drove towards the place they had arranged in advance.

Everything went so smoothly, the car drove into the alley, right under the crumbling low wall.

"Okay, let's hurry up while Okamura is not here."

Tang Shanhai and Chen Shen stopped fighting a long time ago and helped each other out of the car.

"Dachun, what's wrong with you? Why don't you get out of the car?"

"Shanhai, I... I'm afraid I can't do it anymore, you don't need to worry about me, just follow the plan."

It wasn't until this moment that Tang Shanhai and the others realized that Tao Dachun had been shot in the abdomen, and half of his body was stained red with blood. The difference was Tao Dachun's pale face.

"I'm... nice to meet you, I..."

Tao Dachun swallowed his breath before he finished speaking.

"Big spring!"

The four of them were very sad, but they didn't have time to be sad, and they didn't even have time to collect Tao Dachun's body.The four of them worked together to push the low wall down, and loaded the corpses prepared in advance into the car, and waited for them to be "buried in the sea of ​​fire" for them.

"Brother, take care!"

"You have to take care too!"

Facing parting, they don't know if they will see each other again in the future, but Tang Shanhai and the others can't even say goodbye.

Looking at the back of Chen Shen and the three of them going away, Tang Shanhai lit the lighter and threw it on the car behind him. In an instant, the 'oil leaking' car caught fire.

The raging fire reflected half of the sky in Shanghai Bund red.

……

"This sachet is quite beautifully made, um, it's still very fragrant!" Xu Bicheng put the sachet under his nose and took a deep breath.

"How do you like it?"

"like!"

"nice! You love it."

Tang Shanhai smiled and brought Xu Bicheng a sachet and five-color flower wisps, neither of them deliberately mentioned that sensitive word.

The dead are dead, and the living are like this. Only by inheriting the will of the dead and continuing to fight until the day of victory can we comfort those dead spirits!
