Editor Chen's words were indeed not without purpose. The war in Shanghai was over for the time being, and the Japanese naturally began to settle accounts. As for the writers who dared to write articles in the newspapers to criticize the Japanese for their fearlessness and pride, the Japanese naturally wanted to silence them.

There have been quite a few such incidents recently, and Editor Chen was afraid that Shen Wenjiao might get into trouble if she wasn't paying attention.

Shen Wenjiao put down the pen in her hand and looked at the editor who had come to urge her to submit the manuscript with a bit of helplessness. How could she continue writing when the editor was nagging like that?

"I'm writing a martial arts story with a female protagonist this time, so what's the problem? At most, I'll add some common scams to expose. The Japanese can't even forbid that!"

Shen Wenjiao said this just to appease editor Chen. In fact, she had no intention of writing a simple martial arts crime story. Why? Of course, Shen Wenjiao remembered the many traitors and spies in later movies and TV series.

To be honest, even if Shen Wenjiao traveled from the future, she would be familiar with some major historical events. But in fact, there were many traitors and spies during this period. Unless she specialized in studying this period of history, Shen Wenjiao, an ordinary high school student, would not know the specific people.

Even if the traitors and spies of this period did something famous and were adapted into TV dramas, they would be well known to everyone. However, Shen Wenjiao only watched the stories of changing their names and surnames through artistic processing, and she really didn't consider the real situation behind them.

Just like many people have watched the TV series "The Pretender", how many people know that the historical prototype of the three brothers of the Ming family is Yuan Shu! Yuan Shu was first a news personnel, and then engaged in intelligence work. After returning from studying abroad, Yuan Shu was active in the literary and political circles of Shanghai. He had five identities, including the Communist Party of China, the Central Bureau of Investigation, the Military Bureau of Investigation, the Japanese puppet, and the Green and Red Gang. Under the cover of many identities, Yuan Shu provided the Japanese army with wrong intelligence information, which led to the Japanese army's defeat on the battlefield.

This is a real big shot who can be verified in history and is known as the "Oriental Sorge".

Of course, Shen Wenjiao was not a fool, ready to betray her own undercover agents. In fact, Shen Wenjiao knew better than most people today that the Japanese had sent many spies long before to invade China.

For example, there are female spies like Kawashima Yoshiko, who is famous for being related to the Qing imperial family, and some secret spies who grew up in China and completely replaced the original Chinese identity. They can be the sons of high-ranking officials, doctors, businessmen, and almost any other unexpected identity.

To be honest, the scale and pervasiveness of the Japanese espionage activities to invade China were beyond everyone's imagination at the time.

Shen Wenjiao wanted to use metaphors to write some imaginary ancient martial arts detective stories like "The Four Doors", and slowly write about the various espionage activities and methods she knew about the Japanese.

If anyone sees anything, it has nothing to do with her. She just wrote some fictional stories. Any similarities are purely coincidental.

No one was mentioned by name, so could the Japanese dare to take it for granted and specifically cause trouble for her?

Shen Wenjiao was hoping that after this book was published, her family would read it and understand some of the Japanese methods and be on guard. It would be best if everyone in the country knew that three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. Maybe the smart people in the country could learn more about the Japanese methods and go undercover!

Editor Chen had no idea that Shen Wenjiao, this seemingly cute girl, was so bold that she was prepared to plant so many landmines in a story that was obviously unrelated.

Editor Chen, who had read the simple outline written by Shen Wenjiao, nodded involuntarily after hearing what Shen Wenjiao said, "That's good. Shanghai has been really in a state of panic lately, with people being arrested everywhere. If you're not careful, you might get into some trouble."

Editor Chen works at a newspaper and can be considered a writer, so it's obvious. To be honest, I felt someone following him home a while ago. Fortunately, he is timid and cautious and has been in charge of various novel stories, so he is considered safe.

Looking at Editor Chen who was obviously relaxed, Shen Wenjiao, who had already made plans and had something to hide, clenched the pen in her hand, and a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes.

But Shen Wenjiao looked at the background and overall direction of the story outline in her hand, and her back straightened up unconsciously. She didn't write it by name. There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers. Some people can react to a novel and realize that catching a spy has nothing to do with a small author like her.

"However, Miss Feng, you still like career-oriented women as always! Look at the four famous detectives you wrote about, there are actually two women." Editor Chen felt sympathetic. Ever since his daughter-in-law read "The Monkey King 3: Kingdom of Women", she has become much more assertive at home.

However, if you think about it carefully, Ms. Feng is not wrong. Housewives also work! If his wife had not been at home taking care of the elderly and children, he would not be able to work so peacefully. Speaking of which, after reading Ms. Feng's detailed description of what a woman has to do at home, Editor Chen, even though he is a man, as a vested interest, is embarrassed to say that his wife is not making money and enjoying life at home.

"Haha, I always believe that women should have their own persistence. Men and women are equal. I can stay at home for the sake of my family or because I like it, but when I want to go out and spread my wings, no one can stop me."

Shen Wenjiao said proudly that family, social opinion, etc. were not excuses to restrain women. Just like she was writing novels at home now, it was just because Shen Wenjiao liked it.

"Haha, you are ambitious. Miss Feng, you still have the ability. By the way, a bookseller has taken a fancy to the book "The Kingdom of Women" and wants to publish it. Do you want to consider it? It is said that this time it is from the Xiao family, and the price offered is very good."

Logically speaking, when Shen Wenjiao's "The Kingdom of Women" was popular in Shanghai, a bookseller should have come to discuss publishing it. But in reality, due to the series of events that followed and the low price, Editor Chen also thought it was not worth it, so it was delayed until now.

"It's a good opportunity to take advantage of the publication of your new book. Our newspaper can also promote your new book." Good wine needs no bush! How many big things have happened in Shanghai since the last fire.

Editor Chen is worried that if he doesn't promote the new book, it may affect the publication of the book.

Leave professional matters to professionals. In this regard, Shen Wenjiao trusts Editor Chen more. Even if it is just to get more bonuses for himself, he will do his best.

Life is like this. No matter how big the storm is, ordinary people will still live their lives. Suffering will not be forgotten, but it will be temporarily remembered in each other's hearts.
