Chapter 108: Fighting wits and courage

Political Commissar Yang knocked on the door of the section chief’s office, and before he could speak inside, he pushed open the door and walked in. Naturally, I followed the political commissar into the office.

The head of the training section looked about 37 or 38 years old. He was thin and small, with bright eyes. He looked like a very smart person at first sight. When he saw Political Commissar Yang coming in, he stood up and saluted:

"Political Commissar, are you here?"

Political Commissar Yang nodded and said:

"Well, let's sit down! Today I will take Deputy Section Chief Lu to report!"

After saying that, Political Commissar Yang turned to me and said:

"Xiao Lu, this is the Chief of Tibet, the Chief of Tibet. Our teacher is training. After you come here to work, you should ask the Chief of Tibet more questions!"

I said, "Yes!"

Then I said to Zang Changlu:

"Hello, Chief of the Tibet! I am Lu Changfeng!"

Zang Changlu glanced at me with a squinted eyes and said with a smile:

"Hello! I have heard of Xiao Lu's name for a long time! Haha!"

Political Commissar Yang smiled and said, "Chiang Section Chief, I'll leave you with the person. Xiao Lu has little work experience. You can take him more in the future! I'll leave first!"

Zangchanglu and I both stood up and said, "Political Commissar go slowly!"

After Political Commissar Yang left, Zang Changlu glanced at me and said lightly:

"Deputy Section Chief Lu, your office is next to me. You can go there by yourself. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time."

After saying that, he lowered his head and started looking at the document that he didn't know what it was. This sudden change in attitude made me stunned. I smiled bitterly and said:

"Okay, I won't bother with Section Chief Zang!"

Zangchang Road did not raise his head, but just nodded slightly. I got up and left the office. When I went to the door, I saw that there was a sign "Deputy Section Chief" hanging on the door of an office next door. I looked at the office on Zangchang Road, shook my head with a smile, and walked into my office.

This small office is about twenty or thirty square meters in size. There is an office desk in the middle. Some documents are piled up on the table, and even paper scraps are left on the floor. The table has a thin layer of dust. Opposite the desk is a sofa, and there is a computer, printer, and a large bookshelves in the corner of the wall. The books on it are crooked. In short, it is a mess here.

It seems that the previous deputy section chief was in a bad mood when he left! I smiled bitterly, patted the ashes on the chair, sat down and lit a cigarette, and didn't want to care about the messy house for the time being, because my top priority now is Wei Jinyan's matter. It can be said that I was successful in the early temptation. At least I can confirm that Wei Jinyan is indeed reselling military intelligence. So as long as I dig deep, I will definitely gain something.

I am not worried at all that the unhappiness that happened with Wei Jinyan in the past would affect this matter, because the motivation that drove him to risk losing his head to sell intelligence was only profit, and it would inevitably be a high return. And my deputy section chief's attraction to him is obvious, and so far, I am not worried that Wei Jinyan would doubt me. There is a saying that goes: "Optimistic people see the sun, while pessimistic people see the sunspots." Similarly, in Wei Jinyan's own words, I was just a "pretty hypocrite" before, because he was such a person. So, as long as I don't show my strength, I will almost win this battle, and maybe I can become a breakthrough in this incident...

While I was thinking, a figure suddenly flashed in front of the door. Although the person quickly disappeared from my sight, I could see clearly with a sharp look. It was one of Xu Qiang and Ye Xiaoyan's flower protection messengers. I had a "one-time relationship" with me in front of the dormitory building. I smiled knowingly and shouted loudly:

"Staff Officer Xu!"

After a while, Xu Qiang appeared at the door of my office again with a bitter face. When he saw me, his whole body trembled, and he said in a low voice:

"Secretary Lu, you are here!"

I nodded and said with a smile:

"Staff Officer Xu, I just came to work, please take care of me!"

Xu Qiang hurriedly said:

"I dare not be, I dare not be, Section Chief Lu, that day I didn't know Mount Tai, so you have a lot of them, don't bother with me..."

I smiled and said:

"Look at where you have gone. I can't even thank you for being too late. You said I'm not familiar with the place and finally someone took care of me. How could I care about anything!"

Xu Qiang and I smiled, and didn't know what to say. I pointed to the messy office and said:

"Staff Officer Xu, I have something to do and I want to go out. Look at my office in chaos! Then... I'll ask you here?"

Xu Qiang hurriedly said:

"No problem. When you come back, make sure the windows are bright and clean. By the way, Chief Lu, where are you going?"

I turned around, stared at Xu Qiang and said:

"I am a deputy section chief. Where do I have to report to you, the training staff officer?"

Xu Qiang waved his hands repeatedly and said with a smile:

"I dare not, don't dare! Section Chief Lu, it's working hours now, I'm afraid that if the pediatrics chief asks me later, I'm not easy to answer..."

A cold smile appeared on the corner of my mouth and said:

"Is that so? Then you just say I'm going to the grassroots for research. If you are interested, you can go with me!"

Xu Qiang hurriedly said, "No need, I'll clean the room for you. Section Chief, please walk slowly!"

I didn't say anything anymore, picked up my briefcase and walked out of the office. As I expected, when I walked away, I heard Xu Qiang "pa" and then said:

"What's the matter! I'll help him clean the doghouse!"

I smiled and shook my head, "Who told me to have such good listening skills! I have seen too many villains in person and I am too lazy to care about him. Anyway, I am in the training department for a day, and his life will not be easy. I won't be able to use my power to mess with people, but I believe that as long as I exist, his heart will be bleed...

I walked around the camp for a few lame things, got familiar with the environment of the division headquarters, and then went back to the dormitory to watch the workers decorate. After two or three hours, I returned to the office leisurely. Xu Qiang had indeed helped me clean the office, and the messy documents on the table were also sorted out in an orderly manner.

In the next few days, I took care of some daily affairs in the training department in the office during working hours. After work, I went straight to the zero-degree bar, and I was actually "corruption" a few times. Sometimes I could meet Wang Rongjian. Every time he saw me, he was very enthusiastic, but never mentioned anything else. I couldn't help but feel anxious. Could it be that my "performance" was not enough?

Just when I was suspicious of my strategy, the turn of opportunity appeared. That day, as usual, I came to the zero-degree bar to drink. Wang Rongjian happened to be there. When he saw me in, he immediately said enthusiastically:

"Secretary Lu is here! Please sit down!"

Then he turned around and asked the waiter to serve my favorite "Black Russia". These days, as long as Wang Rongjian is present, he treats him, so I was not polite, so I sat down and picked up the wine glass and took a sip. After Wang Rongjian exchanged a few greetings with me, he suddenly said casually:

"Secretary Chief Lu, I have a friend who prefers military things. He often tells me that he likes to read the People's Liberation Army Daily when he was in the army. He also said that he is now discharged from the army and cannot buy such newspapers in the local area. I just wonder if you are in the army? If it is convenient, can you..."

I was secretly happy. It was indeed this kind of trick. These spies didn't know that they could get some fresh things. Countless people have already won these tricks, and they still enjoyed it. I put down my wine glass and stared at Wang Rongjian and said:

"Mr. Wang, the newspapers of the army cannot be exported casually. We have rules!"

Wang Rongjian smiled and said:

"I know this, but this "People's Liberation Army Daily" is not a confidential document, and I'm just showing it to my friends, there won't be anything wrong..."

I pretended to be difficult and didn't say anything for a long time. Wang Rongjian seemed to know what I was thinking. He smiled and said:

"Secretary Chief Lu, although this matter is just a small task for you, you know that it is still difficult for local people to get military newspapers. My friend wants military newspapers so much, so he won't get them in vain. At that time, I agreed with him that if anyone can get military newspapers, he will pay them."

My eyes lit up immediately, but my normal expression quickly returned to my normal expression. However, I believe that the cunning Wang Rongjian had already seen it, and I pretended to be nothing:

"Okay, then I'll bring a few copies next time, but the reward will be waived. Brothers, this matter is a small task. How can I ask for your money?"

Wang Rongjian was overjoyed and said repeatedly:

"The reward should be given, hehe, then I'll thank Section Chief Lu first!"

I smiled and nodded. I knew that the People's Liberation Army Daily was indeed not a confidential document. Even some newspapers at the military level were more confidential than this. Moreover, the People's Liberation Army Daily never involved specific troops numbers and equipment specific parameters, models, etc. It was useless for spy organizations to come to this newspaper. They just used this trick to win over people and slowly drag their targets into the water without realizing it. Now it seems that they have taken "rebellion" against me.

If I was not mistaken, Wei Jinyan should have been on the move. Although he and I have never been in line with each other, I believe that if they can successfully drag me into the water, the benefits Wei Jinyan can get will be huge. This benefit is enough to make him "abandon prejudice". Moreover, if I was dragged into the water, then the "handle" I had in the past will no longer have the effect of threatening him, and he can even use this matter to threaten me, so I believe that he will make a "wise" choice - although I don't know what tricks he is going to take.

Sure enough, the day after Wang Rongjian asked for the People's Liberation Army Daily, Wei Jinyan called me. At that time, my phone rang just as I packed up and was about to leave.

Wei Jinyan said:

"Secretary Lu is off work! Today I'm going to have a friend to play. I wonder if you are interested?"

I was overjoyed and said repeatedly:

"Okay! I'm bored these days! Instructor Guard, you're waiting for me at the door of the company. I borrowed a friend's car and come and pick you up immediately!"

I quickly took out the casual clothes I had prepared from the office cabinet and replaced them. Then I drove to the door of the old company. Wei Jinyan, who was wearing famous brands, was waiting for me at the door. I stopped the car next to him, honked the horn, and slowly lowered the window glass. Wei Jinyan saw that it was me, and his face showed joy. As soon as he got in the car, he said:

"Secretary Lu, this car is pretty good!"

I said with a smile:

"I borrowed it from a friend. I am a small deputy section chief. Where did I get the money to buy a car!"

Wei Jinyan suddenly showed a look of suspicion and said:

"You are too modest! As far as I know, your family conditions are very good!"

I was shocked and secretly scolded myself for being too careless. They are not ordinary people. At least that Wang Rongjian is a trained intelligence officer. Our people can investigate him, and he can still investigate me. Especially when they are about to "incite" me, they will never believe it so easily.

I thought for a moment and said without changing my expression:

"Tell me my dad! Don't mention it! I became independent after I was admitted to the military academy. All expenses were my own. Now I graduated and became a deputy section chief, so I didn't want to get a penny from him! I gave me a house - he couldn't let me sleep on the streets! But I couldn't sell the house! Alas, it's really a misfortune to have such a stingy dad!"

While I said, I said in my heart: "Dad, I'm sorry, the situation is urgent, so I have to use you as a shield!"

Wei Jinyan went all suspiciously and said with a smile:

"Secretary Lu is young and promising, and he doesn't need the support from his family anymore! Haha!"

I know they will definitely check it. It seems that I must explain the arguments just now to my dad and let him "promote" more among relatives and friends. After all, such a maverick father is still rare in China at present. If rumors are spread, then lies will become truth.

I asked while starting the car:

"Defense instructor, where are we going?"

Wei Jinyan said with a smile:

"Secretary Lu, please drive towards Taijiang. As for what you are going to do, I'll forgive you for keeping me in the first place. You'll know then. I believe you will like it!"

I nodded with a smile, but cursed in my heart:

"Pretending to be mysterious! Where else can you take me? It's nothing more than porn, gambling, and poison!"

I think the first two are more likely to be, and they have reached this point. Now I can only stop the soldiers and generals. After passing this level, I think I can notify No. 3 to close the network. I don’t know what they are busy with, and there is no movement at all. But my progress is very smooth. Is the shadow team so low now?

While I was thinking randomly, I drove the car toward Taijiang...
