This sentence suddenly came from the corner, which made Chen Le's heart suddenly jump. He was so familiar with the sound that he knew who the visitor was after just one sound!

A figure walked out of the corner and appeared under the light. His face was clearly visible. The person who came was Chen Le's old subordinate, Wen Hao, now the controller of No. 21, Nanjing!

Seeing Wen Hao appear, Chen Le sighed softly, and his nervous and stiff body slowly relaxed. He looked left and right.

Wen Hao knew what he was looking for, shrugged slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm the only one, I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"

Chen Le relaxed his expression when he heard this, and then stepped forward, walked to the table, picked up the thermos and poured a glass of water for himself, took it in his hand and took a sip, turned around and sat down without raising his head, and asked, "How did you find me?"

Wen Hao, like Shen Le, came to the table and sat on a chair opposite him. He replied disrespectfully: "The methods of the Central Government have not improved for so many years. I know that Lao Yan is a person who is quite rigorous in his actions, but he just can't bear the hardships and cannot stand up. I'm sweeping around the east of the city, and they dare not stay and cannot go. It's a matter of time."

When Chen Le heard this, he couldn't help but curse himself. It was indeed an old problem. The reason why the agents of the Central Government suffered consecutive setbacks behind enemy lines and suffered heavy losses was largely because they did not have strict discipline before the war. The members relied on their privileges, lived a relatively superior life and could not endure hardship.

As a result, at the beginning of the war, the Central Commission for Transport, lurking in the enemy-occupied areas, could not adapt to the cruel struggle and harsh environment. Many people simply took the initiative to surrender to the enemy for benefits, and even those who persisted had some bad habits in this regard.

The east area of ​​Nanjing is relatively the most prosperous area in Nanjing. It is also densely populated and has many shops. In addition to regular merchants, there are also many dance halls, gambling workshops, cinemas, even brothels and tobacco shops. All kinds of religions and all kinds of people gather here. Needless to say, the members of the action team were targeted by Chen Le here.

Chen Le continued: "I have caught four people in the east of the city this month. The operation team has already asked the details of the details. Actually, I found this place yesterday, but there are so many people and I touched it myself when I looked for an opportunity today."

Chen Le turned to look at Wen Hao, and after a long time, he asked coldly: "Why, I really came here by myself. Don't you want to catch me, go and ask your Japanese master for me?"

Wen Hao couldn't help but spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "Director, you are joking!"

Chen Le said angrily: "What are you here to do? Come and chat with me, the old man? Don't call me the director in the future. I can't afford it. But you, the chief director of the agent headquarters, is majestic and glorious!"

Before the war, Chen Le served as the director of the Nanjing Investigation Office of the Central Party Investigation Office for a long time. He was in the center and held the power, so his subordinates all called him the director. Even today, Wen Hao still did not change his name.

Wen Hao's face turned red when he heard this. He had been following Shen Le for so many years, calling the director Chen Le for many years, and never called him another title. Chen Le stabbed him and didn't know how to answer for a while.

Chen Le looked at Wen Hao with a little embarrassed, so he stopped irritating him and asked directly: "What are you planning? Since you are not here to arrest me, are you here to re-submit the party and the country?"

In fact, Chen Le did not have any illusions about the latter situation. Wen Hao's current status in the pseudo-government is incomparable to his previous status in the Central Government.

In the Central Government, Wen Hao was just the leader of his intelligence team and at most a middle-level backbone. However, in the pseudo-government, Wen Hao is the intelligence leader who holds great power and directly controls the intelligence department of "No. 21". As the same thing, it is already a love affair if he doesn't tie him up and send him to the Japanese.

Wen Hao heard Chen Le’s question and quickly replied: “This time I came here, of course I have to talk to you well. I heard the news before that you were the one who replaced Lu Yuannan and became the mayor of Suzhou and Shanghai. I have been looking for opportunities to meet you, but in the past six months, you have been the dragon who has seen the head but not the end, and I have never had a chance.”

"Talk about it? You don't think I will be willing to serve the Japanese like you, right? You are delusional!

I used to refer to you as a confidant and as a brother. I promoted you from an investigator from another province to the intelligence team leader of the Nanjing Central Committee. It was also considered to be a kindness to you, but how did you repay me?

Do you know? Because you were greedy for life and surrendered to the enemy, I was framed by Sheng Xianghuai and almost imprisoned in prison. In the end, my position was gone. My brothers around me were gone, scattered, and my situation plummeted!

I originally thought it would be fine, at least I would hide behind Chongqing and live a safe life for a few days, but you ran to Nanjing to form this so-called "No. 21", which was a big controversy. As a result, I was taken out of the corner again, and a transfer order was thrown here, asking me to do your rebellion work. My old bone is thankful to you, and I was not hurt enough? In the end, do you have to sell yourself to the enemy? Then you might as well break me up with one shot, and you will be able to finish it all!"

Chen Le became more and more angry as he spoke. He pointed at Wen Hao and scolded him, completely forgetting his current situation.

Wen Hao's face turned blue and white when he heard Chen Le's words, and he felt ashamed. What Chen Le said was the truth. Chen Le had a sense of teaching and kindness to meet him, but in the end he was implicated by himself and fell in the current situation. Wen Hao could use others to ruthlessly, but he could not do anything to Chen Le, otherwise he would not have been able to talk to Shen Le.

He waited for Chen Le to finish speaking and quickly explained: "Director, you are so serious. In fact, I was helpless back then. When I evacuated Nanjing, my team of people were dispersed by riots. I was not lucky and fell into the hands of the Japanese. But my identity was recognized again, and finally got to this point. I didn't expect to implicate you.

But the situation is different now. Mr. Wang came out to form a new National Government. Now it is still in Nanjing. This dynasty is about to change, and we are not without the chance to achieve success. Isn’t this also a way out? Are you sure that the Chongqing government can restore Nanjing and revive the mountains and rivers?”

The current situation is indeed as Wen Hao said, and it is not optimistic for the Chongqing government. The Japanese have a military advantage, and most of China has fallen, and the Japanese occupied areas are getting bigger and bigger. The pseudo Nanjing government it supports has a great opportunity to replace the Chongqing government. Many people think this is a good opportunity for speculation.

But when Chen Le heard this, he ignored it at all. He looked at Wen Hao with a expressionless face, his eyes were cold, and Wen Hao's words suddenly stopped. He quickly changed his mind and said, "Of course, this war will continue. I don't know when it will end. No one of us can predict the final outcome. To be honest, we are just a piece in the chessboard. It doesn't matter whether it is black or white. What is important is that we can stand on the side of the winner, otherwise we will be kicked out. So I want to talk about where our future will be!"

Chen Le seemed a little surprised. He heard that Wen Hao seemed to have another idea, so he asked, "Oh, just say, what's the way out?"

Seeing Chen Le's expression relaxed a little, Wen Hao was also excited, organized the language a little, and then said, "Have you heard of the story of the Zhuge brothers during the Three Kingdoms period?"

"Tell me!"

"When the three kingdoms were in harmony, the Zhuge brothers in Nanyang wanted to take the opportunity to do a great career, but I don't know who would finally settle the world? So for the future and to protect the family, they came up with the plan to turn the three brothers to the Three Kingdoms respectively.

The eldest brother Zhuge Jin served in the Eastern Wu, and was trusted and valued by Sun Quan. He became the general of the Eastern Wu. His second brother Zhuge Liang joined Shu Kingdom and was valued by Liu Bei. He became the prime minister of Shu Han. His third brother Zhuge Dan defected to Cao Wei and finally became the general. In other words, no matter who unified the world in the Three Kingdoms, the Zhuge family could stand firm and be preserved.

Why can’t we imitate them now?”

Hearing Wen Hao's words, Chen Le was shocked. He stared at Wen Hao tightly, and couldn't help but feel a little moved. After a long time, he continued, "What are you planning?"

"It's very simple. We secretly join our alliance and endorse each other. If the Nanjing government wins in the future, then I can testify for you. You have been persuaded by me to always work for the Nanjing government. Your life will be safe in the future and your family can be safe.

On the contrary, if the Chongqing government wins in the end, you will prove it to me, saying that you instigated me and secretly served the Chongqing government, I can also lose my merits and sinisterly, which is a way out.

In this way, no matter what the final outcome is, we brothers can be safe and have a good ending. What do you think?"

Wen Hao's words made Chen Le's eyes lit up, and he felt that it suddenly became clear. This proposal was naturally the best for Chen Le. The reason was very simple. It was to form an alliance with each other, but Chen Le was at a disadvantage.

He is now behind enemy lines, surrounded by Japanese and pseudo-government forces. He can be said to be walking on thin ice. If he is not careful, he will be doomed. If he can get Wen Hao's protection, at least he will be safe and worry-free.

Suddenly his eyes tightened and he spoke, "What do you want to know from me?"

Wen Hao hurriedly explained: "You have thought too much. I will never ask you to sell your brothers or intelligence. Of course, if it is beneficial to each other, we can exchange some information with each other, but when you are willing, you and I do not interfere with each other and each other's own affairs."
