The chief player of the film and television world

Chapter 274 Contacting Liang Zhongchun

On the way back, Ming Lou in the back seat of the car asked, "Ah Cheng, did you find anything?"

Mingcheng replied while driving: "Nothing was found, and there was nothing suspicious. Although Mingtai's operation was exposed this time, the process was quite clean."

"That's fine, as long as there is no evidence left, it's fine. By the way, who do you think will be the one who helped Mingtai get out of trouble?"

"Didn't you say it was the Japanese Communist Party?"

"It's hard to say, my gut tells me it's not that simple."

"You mean this is probably a hoax directed and acted by Yoko Nantian. Isn't Mingtai in danger?"

"That's not enough. I don't think Yoko Nantian is so bold. He dared to take the risk of the Japanese consul's daughter. If something goes wrong, it won't be as simple as retiring from his seat."

Mingcheng shook his head helplessly and said: "This Mingtai is too worrying, why don't I go to the photo studio to see the situation tonight?"

"No, it's a blessing, not a curse. It's a disaster that can't be avoided. The more important the juncture, the less you can act rashly. Before you see the situation clearly, the more you do, the easier it is to make mistakes."

Minglou raised the curtains, looked through the car window at the Japanese soldiers running along the street, and sighed.

"I'm afraid many people won't be able to sleep tonight!"

French Concession, East China Studio.

After Yu Manli and Guo Qiyun picked up Mingtai and Zhang Jin in Suzhou Creek, the four of them returned to the base together.

After closing the door, Yu Manli couldn't wait to ask: "What happened, why are you dressed like this?"

"It's a long story, Guo Qiyun, this is the information I secretly took. Now take the film and develop the photo." Mingtai took out the camera from his pocket and handed it to the other party.

Zhang Jin took off the devil's skin and picked out a suit from the hanger: "Lend me this set to wear first."

"What happened? You guys are talking!" Yu Manli urged while watching the two.

"Let Mingtai tell you, I'm going back. Oh, by the way, Mingtai, this is your watch, remember not to miss anything next time."

Mingtai took the damaged watch from Zhang Jin and frowned slightly: "I was negligent."

Zhang Jin patted him on the shoulder, turned and walked towards the door.

"Zhang Jin." Mingtai stopped him, "Thank you this time, if it weren't for you, I really wouldn't be able to come back."

"You're welcome, don't act alone next time, you're not me."

"I know you're good." Mingtai laughed and cursed, raised his hand to press Zhang Jin's shoulder and pushed him out of the door, "Go, go quickly, so I won't be upset!"

Looking at the Huadong Studio with the door closed, Zhang Jin put away the smile on his face, lowered the brim of his hat, wrapped his windbreaker tightly, and turned around to sink into the dark end of the street.

Late at night, at Wusongkou Wharf, everything is quiet.

In the cabin of a cargo ship that has just sailed out of the pier, several guards are sitting around playing dice. The chandelier above their heads casts a circle of dim light, separating them from the surrounding dark environment, as if in two worlds .

"Fourth Huang, what the hell are you going to do? Can't afford to lose!"

"Fart your mother, I can't go out and pee, do I want to pee in your mouth?"

"Fuck you! Look at how unlucky you are, what can't you do, pee No.1!"

"I'm the one who is strong below, can you control me!" Huang Laosi spit, cursed and walked out of the cabin to the deck, stood on the side of the ship and pulled down his belt belt, just about to shake himself up for a while, the corner of his eyes But suddenly found a figure standing on the bow.

"Damn it, why is there a figure on the bow of the boat in the middle of the night, maybe it's a mistake."

Huang Laosi blinked, and there was a look of surprise on his face, because every time he blinked, the figure would grow bigger, as if it was getting closer and closer to him.

"Are you Huang Lao Si?" The figure suddenly asked when he came close.

"Who are you?" Huang Laosi's voice trembled.

Inexplicably, his mind recalled the rumors that the dead ghosts deposited under the mouth of the sea asked someone to replace them for reincarnation.

"Your uncle."

"Grandpa, please spare me! I'll give you whatever you want!" Huang Laosi suddenly knelt down with a plop.

Eh?Zhang Jin looked at the cowardly Huang Lao Si in front of him speechlessly. He thought he would have to work hard, but he didn't expect the other party to surrender so soon.

"I ask, you answer, if the answer is not good, I will send you down."

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will know everything and say everything!" Huang Laosi hurriedly kowtowed.

"Put on your pants first."

"Eh."

"This way, even if you die, you can be decent."

"..." Huang Laosi stopped suddenly when he mentioned half of his pants.

"Let's start with the simple ones. What kind of cargo do you think is in this ship?" Zhang Jin asked.

Huang Laosi replied honestly: "It's all smuggled goods, such as tobacco, liquor, etc., and... and..."

"What else? Say!" Zhang Jin snapped.

"There is still a batch of guns and ammunition!" Huang Laosi said quickly.

"Where is the delivery destination?"

"Sanlipu warehouse on the outskirts of the city."

Zhang Jin silently wrote down the name of the place, and then asked, "Do you know who the owner of this batch of goods is?"

"I don't know, but it must be a big shot. Ordinary businessmen would dare to smuggle, and it's not the first time."

Having clarified everything he wanted to know, Zhang Jin said to Huang Laosi: "You can go."

"Thank you, master! Thank you, master!" Huang Laosi was overjoyed.

The next day, No. 76, Operations Office.

Liang Zhongchun, who was discussing with his team members about the task of investigating the concession today, was suddenly interrupted by the ringing of the phone.

He walked to the table impatiently and picked up the phone: "Hello, who is it?"

A voice he was very familiar with came from the phone: "Director Liang, something happened!"

"What's the matter? Tell me slowly, did the suspect run away, or did the informant go back on his word?" Liang Zhongchun signaled the other party to calm down.

"The suspect got away."

"How many ran away?"

"They all ran away! Director Liang, they all ran away!" The tone on the other end of the phone was very anxious.

"What!? They all ran away?" Liang Zhongchun was taken aback and cursed angrily, "What are you doing to eat? How can you let them run away if you tie them up so well! Do you know how much I have to bear if these suspects run away? The responsibility! If something happens to me, you will have to walk around too much!"

"Director Liang, the opponent's method is clean and neat, which is obviously not something ordinary people can do. Would you like to come and see for yourself?"

"I'm very busy today. I'll try my best to take a look at it tonight. Don't be idle. Hurry up and send someone to catch all the escaped suspects!" Liang Zhongchun put it down with a bang. microphone.

When he turned around, he saw his brother-in-law Tong Hu approaching him and asked, "Brother-in-law, what suspect has escaped?"

"It's none of your business! How many times have I told you to call me Director Liang in the unit!" Liang Zhongchun glared at the incompetent brother-in-law, stretched out his hand to push him away, and said to the other team members, "Let's go now , go to the concession to perform the task!"

"Yes!"

The members of the action team filed out.

Liang Zhongchun turned his head to look at Tong Hu at the side, raised his crutches and scolded: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and prepare the car! Even if I remind you of this, are you trying to piss me off?" !"

"Yes, brother-in-law, don't be angry, I'll go right away!" Tong Hu hurriedly ran away with his head in his arms.

In the evening, the Liang family.

After Liang Zhongchun returned home after a busy day, he heard his wife's gentle greeting: "You're back! Why is it so late today?"

Liang Zhongchun hung up his coat and hat, walked into the living room with a cane, and his face was full of sorrow: "Don't mention it, the Japanese consulate was bombed by criminals last night, and it is said that the consul's daughter was also involved. The Japanese were furious. These days I I'm afraid it won't stop!"

Mrs. Liang's expression was a little unnatural when she heard this, and she winked at her husband.

"Why are you blinking all the time, your eyes are itchy?" Liang Zhongchun suddenly stopped while talking, looking at Zhang Jin who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, "Who are you? Ma'am, who is he?"

"Don't you know your friend?" Mrs. Liang looked worried.

Liang Zhongchun looked Zhang Jin up and down, his small eyes were full of suspicion and vigilance, his hand was already holding the handle of the gun, and he asked, "Friend, do I know you?"

"You should know this, right?" Zhang Jin threw a small piece of something in front of him.

Liang Zhongchun was afraid that he would deceive him, so he asked his wife to pick up the things on the ground, put them in front of him, looked at them carefully, and smelled them: "Smoke soil? What do you mean by throwing a piece of smoke soil to me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind!
Throw smoke?Throw the smoke!
Could this be the batch of soot that I just threw away last night! ?
Liang Zhongchun was suspicious, took out his gun and pointed it at Zhang Jin, and said in a bad tone: "Dare to come to my Liang Zhongchun's house, your Excellency is really brave, do you really think I am No. 76, so easy to provoke!"

"Director Liang, don't be angry, I'm here to discuss a business with you."

"About business? What do we have to talk about! Use my things to talk about business with me, you are quite good at doing business!" Liang Zhongchun sneered, "Unfortunately, I, Liang Zhongchun, am not an idiot!"

"Do some things have to be said in front of your wife? Why don't we talk in another place?" Zhang Jin said.

"There's nothing I can't say in front of my wife, you..."

"For example, Captain Tong..."

"You're right, let's talk in another place!" Liang Zhongchun quickly changed his words, and hastily brought Zhang Jin into his study.

Liang Zhongchun's study is actually a space separated from the living room, it is not closed at all, but it is better to see if anyone is eavesdropping at a glance.

"Who the hell are you?" Liang Zhongchun raised his pistol and pointed at Zhang Jin, asking angrily.

"Director Liang, you don't look like you are going to discuss business, why don't you put the gun away?"

"What if I don't accept it?"

"Then I can only help you personally." Zhang Jin stretched out his hand suddenly while speaking, grabbed the body of the gun and turned it vigorously.

"Ah!" Liang Zhongchun was so painful that he quickly let go of the grip of the gun, so as not to sprain his hand.

After Zhang Jin took the Browning, he dismantled it into a pile of parts.

He took out the bullets one by one with his thumb, and said with a smile: "Director Liang, there is no need to make things so embarrassing. Speak well and make money with kindness."

Liang Zhongchun rubbed his wrist, and his tone was a little soft: "What do you want to do?"

"As I said before, I just want to discuss business with you."

"What business are you talking about?"

Zhang Jin approached and said, "I have an important intelligence clue about the underground party, and I want to sell it to Director Liang."

"Oh? Let's hear it." Liang Zhongchun said calmly.

"Did Director Liang lose a smuggling boat recently? In addition to smoke and soil, there are also a lot of in-demand goods such as grain and cotton, and there are even hundreds of rifles and tens of thousands of bullets."

"Sure enough, it's the goods you robbed."

Zhang Jin smiled, shook his head and said, "Director Liang, you have misunderstood this. I did not rob the thing, but the guerrillas of the underground party. I only discovered it by chance. If Director Liang moves fast enough , Maybe the goods can be recovered before tomorrow, otherwise once the martial law sweeping by the Japanese army is over, I’m afraid there will be nothing left.”

"What's your price tag?"

"Five small yellow croakers, isn't that too much?"

Liang Zhongchun's eyes widened: "Five little yellow croakers, why don't you grab them? This is almost all the profits I can get from this job!"

"It's a waste of money to eliminate disasters. If there is a problem with this batch of goods, Director Liang may be responsible, right? At that time, let alone these five little yellow croakers, even your position as the director of the Operations Department..." Zhang Jin stretched out his hand Pressing on his shoulder, "Think carefully, Director Liang. If you are willing to give up, you will gain something!"

Liang Zhongchun stared at him for a while, then gritted his teeth painfully and said, "Okay, I promise you!"

"One small yellow croaker is the deposit, and I'll tell you the location. I'll come and get the other four small yellow croakers after it's done," Zhang Jin said.

"It's a deal!" Liang Zhongchun said as he walked to the desk, opened the safe below, took out a small yellow croaker and handed it to Zhang Jin.

Without hesitation, Zhang Jin picked up a pen and paper and wrote down an address for Liang Zhongchun.

"Are you sure it's here? How do I remember that this is a field of reeds?" Liang Zhongchun picked up the paper and looked at it.

"The reeds are good Tibetans. Director Liang, hasn't he heard of guerrilla warfare in the North China Plain? How many Japanese troops have suffered from the reeds!"

"Okay, I'll send someone to check it out right now, you better not have lied to me." Liang Zhongchun said while picking up the phone and shaking the number.

"I will come to see Director Liang again in two days, and I hope Director Liang can get back what belongs to him."

Liang Zhongchun watched Zhang Jin leave with the microphone, and said at the same time: "Hey, quickly go to this address and search all the reeds! Yes, I received the news that the thing was intercepted by the guerrillas of the underground party! You have to act fast, and the underground party must not let all the goods be removed!"

"February, did that person leave just now?" Mrs. Liang asked cautiously as she heard the door closing.

"Let's go." Liang Zhongchun put down the phone.

"Thank God, who the hell is he? He sneaked into our house, and the guards outside didn't even notice it! Fortunately, he didn't kill him, otherwise my son and I would be finished! You know how to make enemies outside all day, now it's all right, It's causing trouble at home!" Mrs. Liang couldn't help complaining after she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shut up! You know what a fart! Do you think I want to make enemies? What else can I do sitting in this position?"

"You can't work in another place? You can go to the new government office!"

"You think No. 76 is a latrine, so you can go as soon as you want! Let me tell you, if I leave No. 76, a bunch of people will jump out and kill me! At least I can protect myself if I stay at No. 76." , to leave is to die!" Liang Zhongchun roared loudly.

After speaking, he felt bored again and waved his hand impatiently.

"Go eat, I'm starving to death after a busy day!"
