The rent of shops facing the street is relatively expensive, so some shops are opened upstairs, and it is enough to hang a sign outside the window.

This can leave a bad rent.

The "Sheng Ji" tailor shop is located on the second floor of a five-story building, with shops on the ground floor and residents on the second floor and above, for both commercial and residential use.

In fact, the buildings above the second floor are not residential buildings, they are rented out to shops or companies. It can be seen that there are dozens of signboards hanging on the outer walls except for the windows.

Generally, this kind of family workshop-style tailor shop is operated by a master with one or two apprentices. After two years, you can stay with the master and work with a normal salary, or you can open your own shop independently.

This is the norm.

The plaque on the door with "Sheng Ji" written on it must have been a few years old, and the paint on it has almost faded.

This kind of master's shop is not worried about business, neighbors, even come here admiringly.

There is an iron fence door, and an old craftsman can be seen making samples inside, and a young man is stepping on the sewing machine with his head down. He looks very skilled, and he should not be a beginner.

Luo Yao stretched out his hand and knocked them.

The little apprentice hurriedly put down his work, ran over to open the door, and invited the two of them in.

"What are you two planning to do?"

"We are here to pick up the goods." Luo Yao said.

"Pick up the goods..."

"Xiaohao, I'm here to greet these two guests, you go and do your work." The master who made the sample heard this, and hurriedly raised his head and gave instructions.

"Are you two from Jinghai?" The old master came over and asked in a low voice.

Luo Yao nodded.

"Come with me." The old master nodded, led Luo Yao and Gong Hui to go inside, pushed open a door, closed the door and said, "The goods are inside, only this gentleman can go in."

Luo Yao frowned, and said to Gong Hui: "You wait for me outside, I will come out after picking up the goods."

Gong Hui nodded and gave Luo Yao a "be careful" look.

"Miss, you can wait here for a while." The old master led Luo Yao to continue walking inside, and after passing through two more doors, he came to a room with poor light.

The thick green velvet curtains were drawn, and a person stood with his back to himself.

Luo Yao felt a little familiar, but for a moment he couldn't figure out who it was, the door behind him had already been closed.

"Luo Yao, long time no see."

"Director Dai, why is it you?" When Luo Yao saw the person turn around, he was startled by that familiar yet unfamiliar face.

"Didn't expect that?" Dai Yunong smiled complacently, "Sit down."

"Director Dai, what are you..." Luo Yao had too many questions, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know how to ask them.

"You must want to ask, why am I here?" Dai Yunong laughed.

"Yes, this is really unexpected!"

Chapter 0178 The Real Mission

"You know everything about Mr. Wang?"

"Ah."

Luo Yao nodded. It's been a month or so, and it has already been spread all over the world. As long as the news is not blocked, everyone who should know knows it.

A surnamed Wang, who is still an important figure in the government, actually publicly said that he wanted to surrender to the invaders. He pretended that he was doing it for the peace of the two countries, in order not to increase the casualties of the soldiers and civilians of the two countries, and to save China.

It's okay to fool some ignorant, cowardly and fearful people. Who would fall for this kind of backbone Chinese.

"What do you think about this?" Dai Yunong asked.

"I think Mr. Wang's approach is extremely wrong. He has completely abandoned the legacy of the former Prime Minister and forgot that he should stand upright as a Chinese!" Luo Yao said solemnly.

"Well said, to the point!" Dai Yunong nodded, what he wanted was Luo Yao's clear attitude.

"Director, don't you want me to go to Hanoi first?"

"Then do you want to go?" Dai Yunong smiled playfully.

Luo Yao hesitated for a moment, there was a memory in his mind that told him that stabbing the bark was not an easy task, and he did not succeed in the end.

If he goes, can he avoid the fate of failure? Not necessarily.

The people who lead the assassination are the top group of people in the military system, including their own teacher, is it the teacher's request?

No, the teacher will not drag him into this muddy water, no matter whether the assassination is successful or not, it will not leave a good reputation in the history books.

Since ancient times, assassination has been a shady method.

Of course, for the sake of faith and ideals, many people don't care about this reputation, and Luo Yao doesn't care about it either. Since he is a lurker, he can't consider these things.

"The director told the students to go, and the students will go!" Luo Yao quickly realized.

"Did you hesitate just now?" Dai Yunong's eyes were so keen, he caught a trace of hesitation, or reluctance, in Luo Yao's eyes at that moment.

"Director, the students are not hesitant to go to Hanoi, but are worried about the affairs of Jiangcheng. Although the 'River God' team has successfully lurked and is weaving a net, but this net has just begun to take shape, and I may be needed more there." Luo Yao explained.

"Why, the earth can't turn without you?" Dai Yunong snorted coldly, and few of his subordinates wanted to disobey him. If Luo Yao wasn't his favorite student, he might have been put into the freezer long ago.

"Director, let the students discuss the matter."

"You boy, can't you say something nice?" Dai Yunong knew very well that Luo Yao was indeed inseparable from Jiangcheng, but it was not necessary. He mobilized the top experts in the military system on Hanoi. Luo Yao used to be able to How much does it work?

He couldn't tell.

"Students don't flatter, they just tell the truth."

"Well, forget it, if you don't want to, I won't force you to avoid it." Dai Yunong continued, "I tried my best to ask you to come, the first is to let you report the situation in Jiangcheng face to face, and the second is that there are really A very important task is entrusted to you."

"Then director, should the students report to work first, or complete the task first?"

"I'll talk about the task in a while. Let's report to work first. I can only give you an hour to do it." Dai Yunong looked at his watch and said.

"Yes, director, let the students make a long story short. Before the students leave..." Luo Yao began to introduce the Japanese and puppet situation in Jiangcheng to Dai Yunong, including the stationing of Japanese troops, defense, the formation of the puppet government, and the situation of the two forces in Jiangcheng. etc.

"What's your cousin's situation now?" Dai Yunong rarely interrupted him, but when he was talking about Jiangcheng Xiakou Police Headquarters, he asked about Han Liangze.

"From the current indications, it seems that he has not completely betrayed the Central Committee."

"how to say?"

"This time, the "Han Dynasty" of the central government was hit hard by the Special Investigation Section. It has nothing to do with Han Liangze. The chief of the Special Investigation Section, Sugita Kotaro, has already grasped the situation of their activities in the Yangtze River Hotel. It's just that this person has never Move, until this time, he made a sudden move." Luo Yao said.

"Is it because you poisoned the Japanese army at the anti-smuggling checkpoint at Pier No. [-] on Hebin Road?" Of course Dai Yunong knew.

"This is just an inducement. Maybe they think this incident is related to the previous incident at No. 17 in Changleli, so..."

"Isn't that because of you?" Dai Yunong snorted coldly. He admired Luo Yao as a student, but a student with ability and ability is easy to be stubborn and easy to break. He needs to keep beating him.

"The student was wrong, but the student didn't think that Fan Jingyin was actually a member of the Central Committee. According to the student's speculation afterwards, this Fan Jingyin should have leaned in to pimp Yang Zan's son, but he wanted to work under this condition, no problem , but it would be too much to implicate innocent people at will like this!" Luo Yao said, "If we all act like this and do whatever we can, then what is the difference with those Japanese soldiers who killed the people?"

"Okay, what the Central Committee did in this matter is too bottomless, and the death of that Fan is his own fault, but you have to consider the consequences of this matter!" Dai Yunong solemnly taught.

"Yes, the students know they are wrong."

Dai Yunong nodded. It is normal for young people to impulsively make some mistakes. Whoever did not make mistakes when they were young depends on what kind of mistakes they made.

Under Luo Yao's environment, he could think of this method and deal with it decisively. It was just a small accident, but fortunately it didn't affect the overall situation.

"On Fan Jingyi's matter, if you take it easy and don't be so impulsive, you may have a better solution." Dai Yunong said.

"Director, this is not the first time that Fan Jingyin has tried to trick me. If I don't fall for it once or twice, it would be too suspicious. I made the decision impulsively, but I didn't expect that Changleli 17 The account is actually a secret stronghold of the Intelligence Section of the Japanese Secret Service in Jiangcheng."

"Anyway, you did meritorious service by poisoning Miyagi Yuping, an old Japanese spy who had been hiding in Jiangcheng for many years. These years, Jiangcheng Station has worked hard to dig him out and kill him. I didn't expect him to die in the end. In his hands, it can be said to be God's will!" Dai Yunong nodded.

"Generally speaking, what you did in Jiangcheng is very good. You have set a good example among the students who graduated from the temporary training class. This is very good." Dai Yunong still expressed his opinion about Luo Yao's actions in Jiangcheng. affim.

"Thank you, Director."

"After talking about Jiangcheng, let's talk about your mission." Dai Yunong took out a document bag from a black briefcase and handed it to Luo Yao, "Take a look at the contents first."

Luo Yao saw this briefcase when he came in.

Without any hesitation, Luo Yao opened the file bag and took out the materials inside.

Under the light, a black-and-white photo of a middle-aged bald white man in his 50s with a big belly and a rosacea.

The background of the photo is a train station. It seems that it is not domestic, because all the signs on it are in English.

In addition to photos, there is also a resume in English.

Herbert Yardley!

When Luo Yao saw this name for the first time, he was shocked. He remembered what he had mentioned to his teacher, Yu Jie, that if he wanted to change the problem of the lack of technical ability to decipher the national secret code, he could ask for foreign aid, especially those who are familiar with the Japanese military code. professionals.

He had found a lame excuse to recommend this Herbert Yardley to Yu Jie, and the purpose at that time was to cut off Wei Daming's beard.

"Director, is this Herbert Yardley coming to China?"

Dai Yunong nodded: "To be precise, we have already arrived in Hong Kong."

"It's a good thing. This person is an expert in code deciphering, especially in Japan, so he is very familiar with it." Luo Yao said.

"I know, but his price tag is not low, a salary of one thousand dollars a month, and various other benefits, I dare not even think about it." Dai Yunong said.

"This person is worth the price!" Luo Yao said firmly.

"Oh, why are you so sure?" Dai Yunong asked in surprise. Although he had spent money to invite the man back, he didn't really believe in this man.

What's more, this Yardley has been away from code deciphering for several years. In a few years, the code encryption and deciphering may have been updated long ago.

Is it worth the price for an out-of-date character, so he instructed the Military Command America Station to only sign a one-year contract with this Yardley.

No matter what, just treat it as a thousand pieces of gold buying a horse bone.

He was already mentally prepared to lose a sum of money.

"Director, I have read his autobiographical novel "American Black Room". The things he told are basically facts and verifiable. Moreover, deciphering the Japanese secret code is what we urgently need now. The Japanese secret code Code encryption technology is half a generation or even more than a generation behind the technology in Europe and the United States, and our gap is even bigger. Therefore, to make up for this generation gap, we need a person to guide and help us. Now the world's code deciphering talents Only the Americans are not so urgent, otherwise we would not be able to find anyone." Luo Yao explained.

Dai Yunong listened and nodded again and again: "Your analysis is very reasonable, no matter what, now that he has arrived in Hong Kong, your task is to connect with this Yardley and escort him back to the mountain city safely."

"what?"

"What's the matter, do you think this task is too childish?" Dai Yunong raised his eyebrows and asked.

"No, for such a mission, you directly assign the brothers from the Hong Kong station to escort it, why send us all the way here?"

"Why, are you still not happy?"

"It's not that I'm not happy, it's that you're obviously looking for distance at a distance." Luo Yao said.

"Why should I look far away, do you know?"

Luo Yao shook his head.

"I want to set up a secret code deciphering organization in the military, but there is no suitable person to preside over it. This Yardley exists as our consultant and cannot be announced to the outside world. His identity must not only be kept secret from the Japanese, but also from the United States. People also need to keep it secret." Dai Yunong explained.

"Co-author, are we poaching people here?"

"He is a free citizen, he can go wherever he likes, and the US government can't control it, but after all, his identity is sensitive, so it will inevitably cause unnecessary diplomatic disputes, so he didn't formally mention it to the US side, and the whole thing was done in private Completed."

"Then as long as one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, the U.S. government can't restrict its own people from earning legal income." Luo Yao chuckled.

"I want you to be Yardley's assistant!" Dai Yunong revealed his real purpose.

"Then what should I do in Jiangcheng?"

"You recommend someone to take your place." Dai Yunong said domineeringly.

"Director, can you allow me to think about this matter? If I can't get along with this Yardley, wouldn't it be a waste of your arrangement?"

"Your teacher is right. Your kid has a seven-aperture exquisite heart. It is really difficult to think about problems one step more than ordinary people." Dai Yunong said, "Actually, it is not necessary to be an assistant to Yardley. There are no conditions. First, you must be young, speak English, and be able to communicate with him. Second, you must understand codes. We want to learn their skills. This idiot can’t do it. Third, you must have the ability to organize and coordinate , The incomparable loyalty to the party state and the leader, this position is too critical, you understand."

"Thanks to the director for trusting me, but I have only joined the military for a year, do I have the ability to take up this position, and we have a lot of talents in the military, so I should be able to find a more suitable candidate than me..."

"Are you worried that you won't be able to convince the public?"

"Yes, Director."

"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements for this." Dai Yunong said firmly.

Luo Yao was stunned for a moment, and could only say: "Then I will listen to the director, but I have a request."

"Say."

"I have to have a few capable people under my command."
