Chapter 22 Intelligence

  Liu Shijiang stopped the car and looked at them. His heart was surging with emotion, as if he had seen the great power of the masses.

  The procession passed by the entrance of the Military Bureau and continued on its way forward.

  In the office of the head of the Military-Intelligence Bureau, Chen Xiru and Mei Wenjie were standing by the window watching the marching students, with different expressions on their faces.

  Chen Xiru looked calm and composed, while Mei Wenjie looked extremely indignant, her high chest heaving violently with agitation.

  "This group of college students is getting more and more outrageous, they actually dared to go to the city government's gate to protest." Mei Wenjie said with great indignation.

  "Hey, a group of college students, as long as someone takes the lead, a large crowd will follow. After walking for a day, their throats are hoarse, and not many people know what this is all about." Chen Xiru said with a smile, sitting down in the chair by his office desk, smiling at Mei Wenjie.

  Mei Wenjie quietly listened while turning her charming and talkative eyes to think about Chen Xiru's words, thinking so, she came from the window to one side of the office desk, standing there continuing to listen to Chen Xiru speak.

  "But this time it's a good opportunity. This time, we must make the most of it." Chen Xiru said with a smile as he looked at Mei Wenjie.

  "It depends on how we make use of it." Chen Xiru said with a smile, putting his hand on the armrest of the sofa and adjusting his lower body slightly to get more comfortable.

  "What do you mean?" Mei Wenjie didn't know what Chen Xiru was going to do, so he looked at him with confusion and asked.

  "You said, we've been fighting the Communist Party for over a decade, and every student movement has had them pulling the strings from behind. This time, we made good use of it." Chen Xiru looked at Mei Wenjie with a smile: "If this time yields results," he said, making a certain gesture with his hand: "then that hidden traitor within our ranks can be caught easily."

  Mei Wenjie listened to Chen Xiru's words while rapidly rotating her eyes, it was clear that she was thinking quickly.

  "Director, I know, I'll go and arrange it now," said Mei Wenjie as he walked out.

  "Director, what do you mean?" Mei Wenjie asked.

  "My intention is for us to make good use of this opportunity and investigate the Communist Party in secret."

  "Hey, Wenjie, why are you always so impatient? I haven't even finished speaking yet." Chen Xiru looked over and hastily said with a smile.

  Mei Wenjie stood firm after hearing Chen Xiru's words.

  "This time you go to the activity, don't tell others, contact me directly, and I also want Xiaoqiang to participate. You investigate in secret, let Xiaoqiang investigate openly, and you two cooperate with each other." Chen Xiru said with a smile as he looked at Mei Wenjie.

  "He's idle all day long, let him work with me, or I'll just do it myself." Mei Wenjie said.

  "What's going on? Haven't your conflicts eased up already? At least you're not fighting as soon as you meet, Xiaomei. This internal strife isn't true bravery. You two should work together and put your energy in the right place." Chen Xiru looked at Mei Wenjie and said: "Besides, don't look down on him like he's nothing. I know him, he may seem idle on the surface, but he has skills. Moreover, you're a hidden card, which is what I value most. He's an open card, let him do whatever he wants."

  Mei Wenjie looked at Chen Xiru, his face slightly flushed, but he didn't say a word.

  "Alright, I'll call him over." Chen Xiru said as she picked up the phone on the table.

  "He's not here," said Me Wenjie.

  "How did you know?" Chen Xiru asked Mei Wenjie with a puzzled and curious expression.

  "If he were in, his office door would definitely be open." Mei Wenjie said with a hint of disdain, holding her arms.

  "Oh. It seems that your heart is still very delicate, and you care about Xiaoqiang a lot." Chen Xiru said as she went to pour tea, while Mei Wenjie had already quietly walked out.

  Just as Chen Xiru was pouring tea, she lifted her head and was about to speak when Mei Wenjie's figure had already disappeared from the office.

  Chen Xiru looked at the door, shook her head, sighed, and pouted.

  In Mei Wenjie's office, several of her subordinates stood there with respect, and Mei Wenjie sat in her own position.

  Liu Shijiang sat on a large sofa, with one hand on the back of the sofa and reclining at an angle, drinking tea.

  "Is that all? Captain Mei, let me add a word. This tea is really terrible." Liu Shi Qiang sipped his tea and spat out the tea leaves into the cup, saying to Mei Wen Jie: "Aren't they just a few students? Notify the police station to have them set up police at major intersections and roads, plus patrols. When they cause trouble, can't we just catch the main ones?"

  "Secretary Liu, using your method will only intensify the conflict. Now we need to adopt a strategy of being tight inside but loose outside. Not only will I not set up checkpoints, but I'll also call back all the police officers. This is the way to lull them into a false sense of security. Moreover, we must secretly monitor those ringleaders and lay a trap for them." Mei Wenjie said to Liu Shiqiang.

  "Yes, Captain Mei's move is brilliant." A male agent on one side said.

  "You're just a bootlicker!" Liu Shijiang pointed at the agent and said loudly, while standing up from the sofa.

  He was extremely surprised in his heart, the move of these secret agents was indeed vicious, what should he do now? He looked at them while thinking.

  "Secretary Liu, I don't know what you think?" Mei Wenjie looked at Liu Shiqiang and asked.

  "You all understand it this way, why ask me? Don't let me come to your office again to talk about such nonsense."

  As he spoke, he walked out of the outside.

  On the street, a black sedan was speeding forward quickly.

  "Captain, I've got it figured out."

  "Are you all seated and settled?" asked Mei Wenjie.

  "Yes, those students are inside room 108." said one of the female agents.

  "Listen, get me those student representatives, okay? Wait until they're seated and then make your move, be swift." Mei Wenjie said.

  "Yes. Not one of them can escape." The female agent said.

  On the upper floor of a house, more than ten student representatives were sitting around a table, discussing the situation of the student movement.

  A student who was standing had just turned around. The plainclothesmen had arrived at their side, and the student representative immediately got into a fight with them.

  An agent grabbed a student representative and flung him to the ground with great force, producing a loud "thud" sound.

  Another plainclothesman pinned a student's foot against a pillar with his own foot.

  The whole student representative understood that he kicked under a table, and the table also followed him to fall to the ground. The agent grabbed his hand and pulled him out from under the table and beat him hard.

  A student representative was thrown away by a plainclothesman and fell onto a vegetable stall, instantly knocking over the stall...

  On this side, Cai Mengyao and Liang Rujie also arrived on the street by car. She stopped the car not far from the students and looked at the fighting scene between the students and the Kuomintang military police outside the window. Her chest was heaving violently, and her facial expression seemed somewhat gloomy.

  "Who is responsible for this operation?" Cai Mengyao asked, looking at the scene outside the car window.

  "It seems like Captain Mei and Secretary Liu." said Liang Jiru.

  "Can they be a couple?" Cai Mengyao asked with a gloomy face.

  "It's hard to say." Liang Rujie said, he turned his face and looked at Cai Mengyao, feeling that she seemed to care about Liu Shijiang very much, so he asked in doubt: "How, you seem to care about him a lot?"

  "I'm just asking." Cai Mengyao said on the surface, but she had already made up her mind.

  "Geez, I'm scared to death." At this time, outside the car window, students were still fiercely fighting with plainclothes police.

  "Meng Yao, what do you think of this tie?" Liang Rujie asked Cai Mengyao, stroking his new tie.

  "Not so good, let's change it tomorrow." Cai Mengyao replied perfunctorily.

  After hearing Cai Mengyao's words, Liang Jiru's face showed a sense of embarrassment. He gently stroked the steering wheel with his hand.

  Liu Shijiang's office, Liu Shijiang was putting his own feet on the office desk, throwing one by one paper balls on the table into a wastebasket on the ground.

  A ball of paper fell into a wastebasket, hit the bottom with a thud, and then bounced out to one side onto the floor, where several other balls of paper were already lying.

  At this time, Mei Wenjie pushed open the door and walked in from outside.

  "Hey, Captain Mei, you're exhausted from catching people and came here to rest?" Liu Shijiang asked with a smile.

  "The director's request is for us to work together to deal with this student movement, but I didn't expect you to be idle in your own office, not participating in anything. If the director asks later, don't blame me for telling the truth." Mei Wenjie said to Liu Shiqiang.

  "Don't worry, I'm a sensible person. You be the red flower and I'll be the green leaf, I'll cooperate with you to the death." Liu Shi Qiang said to Mei Wen Jie.

  "What do you mean by that? Don't turn things around, we're all working for the party and country, what's there to argue about?" Mei Wenjie said as he was about to walk outside.

  "Wait," Liu Shijiang said, looking at her back.

  When he heard this, Mei Wenjie stopped in his tracks, turned around and looked at Liu Shijiang with a puzzled expression, not knowing what was going on.

  "This." Liu Shijiang picked one from several paper balls on the table and handed it to Mei Wenjie.

  Mei Wenjie approached Liu Shiqiang and took the note from his hand, saying: "This is the intelligence you gave me."

  As he spoke, he smiled at Liu Shijiang.
