Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 209 Comrade Lao Sun, Goodbye

There is a medium-sized grocery store on Chongwenmen Street.

The door panels of the two storefronts have been worn for who knows how many years and have been polished to a shine.

In the early years, this grocery store was run by the old shopkeeper Sun. Later, the old shopkeeper Sun died of illness. Not long after, a man came from his hometown and claimed to be the nephew of the old shopkeeper Sun. He held the funeral for the old shopkeeper Sun and stayed to run the grocery store from then on.

When others asked him his name, he always said that he was the second child and that you could just call him Sun Er.

Sun Er was an honest man, even a little cowardly. He took in a little beggar as his waiter and led a very regular life. He got up early and opened the shop on weekdays. When there was no business at noon, he would go out for a walk or find a small teahouse to have a cup of tea.

Early this morning, Master Sun directed the waiter to take down the door and open for business.

The young man said with a bitter face, "Boss, if these southern goods can't be brought in anymore, we can only sell needles and thread!"

Then he looked around and whispered, "Boss, I heard that the owner of the silk shop on the street has some connections and can get a lot of good things from the black market. Why don't we..."

Mr. Sun still had no expression. "Needles and thread are just needles and thread. You, you have to study. Zeng Wenzheng said that business is not for the sake of money. I have this business, and I just don't starve to death in this day and age."

The young man didn't know who Zeng Wenzhengong or Zeng Wuzhengong was. He only knew that the best-selling items in the shop used to be various southern products. Now that the war had broken out, southern products couldn't be brought in. If this continued, he might not even be able to eat, let alone make a fortune.

However, Master Sun was his savior, and he respected him as he did his father, so naturally he would not talk back to him.

I could only take down the door panel with a worried look on my face, and sweep the door clean with a broom.

I'm lucky today. As soon as I opened the door, customers came.

A tall man entered the shop and asked, "Do you have any embroidery needles?"

The young man was puzzled. Why did this big and strong man buy embroidery needles?

But when you open a business, you have to give people whatever they want as long as the store has it.

"Yes, yes!"

Just as the clerk was about to take it, the man said in surprise, "Hey, isn't this Mr. Sun? Were you the one who drank tea with me that day?"

Mr. Sun tried to force a smile, "It's you. Don't rush to buy things. Come and have a cup of tea later."

The man was not polite, "Sorry to bother you then."

The young man saw that his boss had changed his personality. He used to be a loner, but now he started to make friends.

But he still felt happy. His previous boss had a gloomy temper, so it was a good thing to make more friends. He picked up the kettle swiftly and wanted to make some Biluochun tea, but when he saw that there was not much left in the jar, he felt reluctant and quietly picked up the jar of large-leaf tea next to him, brewed two bowls and passed them over.

Jiao Zhenguo took a look at the tea leaves in the covered bowl and smiled at Mr. Sun Erye, "Old Sun, you have found a good partner."

Old Sun just drank tea and didn't say anything.

"Old Sun, I promise you that I will surrender to the Japanese and be your secret agent."

Master Sun raised his eyebrows, "What happened?"

Jiao Zhenguo stared at him for a long time, but could not read anything from his expression. He then lost his temper. "I am under suspicion. With Dai's methods, I am afraid that I will be transferred to Shancheng next. Then I will be investigated for many years. Finally, I will be thrown into some government office with nothing to do all day long."

Jiao Zhenguo knew very well that he had absolutely no connection with the Japanese before.

But he has contact with the Red Zone!

This is what he is really afraid of. In the eyes of Boss Dai, having anything to do with the Red Zone is more unforgivable than cooperating with the Japanese.

The higher-ups suspected that I had defected to the Japanese, but if they found out that I had unclear ties with the Red Zone, that wouldn't be a simple investigation.

Master Sun Er knew the twists and turns here, so he didn't explain it in detail. He just nodded and said, "Then you can go directly to the Military Police Headquarters, raise your hand, and tell them who you are and that you want to see the commander-in-chief. They will probably welcome an important person like you to join them. Once you have established a firm foothold there, my people will naturally find a way to contact you."

Jiao Zhenguo sighed, nodded, said nothing more, and left the shop.

The young man asked anxiously, "Hey, boss, doesn't he want an embroidery needle?"

Master Sun Erye still looked calm, "Oh, maybe he forgot. Just leave it there for now. He will come back later."

After returning to his house, Jiao Zhenguo wrote a telegram and handed it to the old servant.

The old servant was shocked when he saw it. "What are you doing?"

Jiao Zhenguo smiled and said, "After this telegram is sent, you must leave the city immediately and return to the concession in Tianjin. You cannot tell anyone about my affairs."

"That's a dangerous place!"

"Isn't a mountain city a den of dragons and tigers?"

The old servant stopped talking.

The telegram clearly stated: Jiao Zhenguo has betrayed, the action team is in danger.

At noon that day, Jiao Zhenguo walked into the gendarmerie headquarters without carrying any weapons.

...............

An inconspicuous little teahouse.

Peng Jingyue met with Sun Erye here.

Sun Erye whispered, "You must evacuate immediately. Jiao Zhenguo has already planned to go to the Military Police Headquarters. Once the Japanese have him in their trap, the first person they will kill will be you."

Come to think of it, the Japanese used a trick to force Jiao Zhenguo to do something unreliable, and he will be of great use in the future. If Peng Jingyue is still alive, and Jiao Zhenguo finds out that he was framed, then this man will be unreliable.

So once Jiao Zhenguo took the bait, the Japanese would definitely kill Peng Jingyue.

Peng Jingyue laughed bitterly when he heard this, "If I leave, won't the Japanese get suspicious?"

Sun Erye shook his head. "Even if the devils become suspicious, they still have to use Jiao Zhenguo. After all, he is too familiar with Beiping Station."

"There are smart people among the Japanese. If they start to suspect this, then after using Jiao Zhenguo to attack the Beiping Station, they will most likely put him under house arrest and never let him get involved in important matters of the Military Police Headquarters. Then what's the point of all our efforts?"

At this point, Peng Jingyue closed his eyes in pain. "Besides, my woman and child are still in their hands. Old Sun, to be honest, I don't know whether they are still alive or not... It's all my fault. I violated the discipline..."

Master Sun sighed in his heart.

Agents are also human beings, with emotions and desires.

But this job means that feelings are dangerous to them.

"Comrade Lao Sun, goodbye. I don't know where the devils will bury me, or burn me. When the day comes when they are driven away, please open a jar of wine for me. Even in the underworld, I will drink to my heart's content!"
