Lost and Spy

When Dai Li asked this sentence, Meng Shaoyuan did not answer immediately, he first offered Dai Li a cup:
"Director Dai, I respect you for cultivating me for so many years with this cup."

Meng Shaoyuan drank it all in one gulp, put down his teacup and said, "Are you saying I'm afraid of death? I am afraid of death, but I'm not afraid of death. When I need to die, I won't even frown.

But I am afraid of death, I am afraid of meaningless death.I am even more afraid that if I die at the hands of those people, I will be smashed to pieces and even ruined. "

"With me here, who dares to touch you?"

As soon as Dai Li said it, Meng Shaoyuan smiled bitterly: "Director Dai, can you keep me? You can't. I know you will do your best, but you really can't.

If you are determined to protect me, you will openly turn against those people, and you will bet on your future, and even the future of the entire military command.You wouldn't do it for me alone. "

"Yeah, I won't sacrifice the entire organization for one person." Dai Li also admitted frankly: "You said just now, once you enter this door, you will be in the army for life. You are our military leader, the model of the army, and the soul of the army.

Think about it for yourself, if you just leave like this, what kind of impact will the entire organization have?Besides, I don't want you to go. "

"Director Dai?" Meng Shaoyuan was taken aback.

"Listen to me." Dai Li waved his hand: "I really miss you. If I were a painter, you would be the most perfect painting in my life. Who would watch losing himself The most proud work of his life?

These years, I have been doting on you, no matter what you do, I can tolerate you.Even, you Tonggong, I let Wu Jingyi know in advance, and got rid of that traitor of the Labor Party.

But these all have prerequisites. You are born as a member of the military commander, and when you die, you are the soul of the military commander.You can't go, and you're not allowed to go.It's good for the organization, or it's good for me. "

Dai Li rarely revealed his heart, and said these words to Meng Shaoyuan with all his heart.

Meng Shaoyuan was really moved at this moment. He was a very calm person when handling the case, but he was impulsive in other occasions:
"Director Dai, if I say that I will leave the organization after the victory of the War of Resistance, will you agree?"

As soon as he asked this question, Meng Shaoyuan regretted it himself.

If Dai Li agreed immediately, he would be in real trouble.

Not to mention that the whole plan was ruined, how to get through the rest of the time and how to save his life is enough.

Why is my mouth so cheap?
People treat you a little better, why are you so excited?

Dai Li was silent there for a long time, then slowly shook his head and said: "No. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, there are too many things to do. Especially for our military command, just receiving it is the top priority.

Especially Shanghai, which is the economic and financial center of the Far East, must be guarded by a capable general who is familiar with the local area.You have worked in Shanghai for a long time, and you are very familiar with it. I am considering re-arranging you to Shanghai. "

These words have clearly told Meng Shaoyuan that as long as you can stay, the position of King Shanghai is still yours!
However, Meng Shaoyuan knew that Dai Li would never agree to his leaving no matter what.

He smiled immediately: "Director Dai, don't listen to those people talking nonsense. When did I say I was going to run away? No, no. I'll toast you again."

Dai Li didn't raise his glass, he stared at Meng Shaoyuan: "Irreversible?"

"What is irreparable?" Meng Shaoyuan said innocently, "Director Dai, I really don't understand what you mean."

Dai Li changed his tone: "Restrain the horse from the precipice and let the past go. If you resist to the end, you will die."

This was Dai Li's last warning to him.

"I'm on a cliff, but I don't need to rein in my horse." Meng Shaoyuan murmured.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on Dai Li's wrist: "Director Dai, are you still wearing the watch I gave you?"

Dai Li was startled, looked at the watch on his wrist, took it off, looked at it, his eyes were also filled with memories:

"Yeah, I'm still wearing it. I don't know much about these things. I found out later that this watch is very valuable. That time, you suffered a big loss."

……

That was, in 1937, before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.

Nanjing.

Meng Shaoyuan had just returned from a mission in the Northeast.

Dai Li wanted to reward him personally, but he didn't know what to reward him.

He fumbled on his body for a long time, and found ten yuan of legal currency: "I treat you, you go to Ma Xiangxing to have a good meal."

"Ah?" Meng Shaoyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mr. Dai, can you give Ma Xiangxing something to eat? What do you get for ten yuan?"

"That's it." Dai Li looked a little embarrassed: "I went to Ma Xiangxing, but I didn't pay the money. I know how to use the big money, but the small money..."

He opened the drawer, looked inside for a while, and took out a watch: "This, mine, is for you too. If it's not enough, I'll go to the bank to withdraw money for you."

"Enough, enough." Meng Shaoyuan took the watch and ten yuan, thought for a while, and took off the watch on his hand: "Mr. Dai, it's inconvenient for you not to have a watch. I'll let you use this one."

"Ah, thank you then."

"Mr. Dai, Longines, this is a Longines watch."

"Oh, Longines, I know, I heard it's quite famous." Dai Li said casually.

Cheng, Mr. Dai, you are the one who really knows how to do business.

……

Dai Li has been wearing this Longines watch until today.

That was the best time between Meng Shaoyuan and Dai Li.

"Director Dai, the watch is still the same watch." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly, "But man, he is no longer the person he used to be. Some things, once lost, will never come back.

I am responsible for the military commander.I have a clear conscience for my country.I am loyal to you.But I have my own ideas, no one can force them.

In my heart, I will always respect you.Without you, there would be no me.If you have something to do, I am willing to trade my life for it.But my fate, I want to control it in my own hands! "

"boom"!
Dai Li slapped his watch on the table vigorously: "Meng Shaoyuan, you are really determined."

He exerted so much force that a crack appeared on the surface.

"Director Dai, I really don't know where you heard that I want to run."

Meng Shaoyuan regained his hippie smile: "I run? Where can I go? I can't go anywhere. Don't worry, I will stay in Chongqing with peace of mind."

Then, he glanced at the watch again: "The surface is broken, there are cracks. Director Dai, don't change the surface, if you don't change it, even if there are cracks, it's still the same watch. If you change it, it won't be the same table."

"Come on!"

Following Dai Li's call, two guards walked in.

Dai Li was about to say something, but suddenly thought of something, and waved his hand:
"It's okay, you guys, go out!"
