Chapter 1 Joint Variation


In the summer of 1941, at noon one day, Stone Town, a provincial capital city in the eastern part of the land of China.

The streets were bustling with people, and although they were under Japanese occupation at this time, ordinary people were still running around for their livelihoods.

The sun is sparing no effort to radiate light and heat, as if trying to dry everything on the ground.

On a street in Stone Town, which is not a main road, a young man in his early thirties in a white suit is walking forward.

He kept wiping his sweat with his handkerchief and looked at the house numbers of the buildings around him from time to time, as if looking for an address.

There are not too many pedestrians on this street, and the houses on the street are basically some shops, such as Chinese medicine shops, shaving shops, and restaurants.

Everything looks no different from normal days, and it seems very normal.

Li Yixin is very cautious, this is the occupied area, he is the first time to come to this city, he must be cautious to prevent accidents.

As an underground worker, an accident often means the end of life.

Today is the day when he went to Stone Town to connect with the underground party organization for the first time, according to the instructions given to him by the leaders of the Central Social Affairs Department in the capital Yucheng before departure, the Chinese medicine shop at No. 29 Chengxian Street is the first place where he and the underground party organization in Stone Town are connected.

In fact, he had already seen the Chinese medicine shop from a distance through the house number, but he did not rush to the joint, but slowly paced and pretended to be unfamiliar to observe the surrounding environment to see if there was anything abnormal.

The joint time was twelve o'clock at noon, and Li Yixin arrived half an hour early.

This is his usual style, and he is very careful to interface with party comrades with whom he is completely unfamiliar.

This is the discipline that must be observed in doing underground work, and it is also an important reason why he was able to not be found out and have been lurking when the Kuomintang raised its butcher's knife to clear the party.

The Chinese Medicine Shop at 29 Shing Yin Street is a two-storey old-fashioned building, and the ground floor is a place for Chinese medicine practitioners to sit and take medicine.

On the second floor, there is a banner hanging, with four big characters hanging on the book, and some windows are also opened next to it, which is the living room of the owner of the pharmacy.

On the edge of the windowsill in the middle of the three windows, there is a small pot of pink moon flowers.

This is a code that everything is fine, indicating that there are no safety issues at this joint location.

Li Yixin saw this pot of flowers from a distance, and his vigilance in his heart was slightly reduced.

He knew this code when he was instructed by his superiors in Yucheng, and it seems that everything is normal here and can be connected.

Li Yixin took out the pocket watch on his body and looked at the time, it was 11:45, and there were still 15 minutes before the joint time.

He began to quicken his pace, adjusted to his normal walking speed, and walked towards the Chinese medicine shop.

Suddenly, the situation suddenly changed!

With a 'bang', the pot of moon flowers was pushed down the street and smashed to pieces, and then a person jumped from the window where the flower pot was originally placed, and limped in the other direction of Chengxian Street.

The windows on the second floor weren't too high, but they were still easy to get hurt if they jumped from above, and the person who jumped from the building looked like he had broken his foot.

At this time, more than a dozen people in civilian clothes poured out of the shop opposite the Chinese medicine shop and the Chinese medicine shop, chasing the person who jumped off the building with pistols, shouting while chasing: "Stop!

” Two of them were chasing after him so fast that they were about to catch up with the man who had fled.

The running speed of the fleeing man was not fast due to the foot injury, and he looked back at the pursuers behind him, knowing that he probably couldn't escape because of the foot injury.

So he grabbed a pair of scissors that were being sold from a street stall and waved them with his backhand, just as he pricked the scissors into the arm of a chaser with a box cannon who was reaching out to grab the back collar of his clothes.

The pursuer let out a scream, and he was stabbed in the right hand by the scissors, and the box cannon fell to the ground for a moment.

Just as the fleeing man went to pick up the pistol that had been dropped on the ground, another pursuer arrived, and without hesitation, kicked at the man who was picking up the gun.

The man who escaped was very fast, and as soon as he picked up the gun, he immediately rolled to the side, raising his hand to shoot at the pursuer who had just kicked him.

With a bang, the other party's figure paused, and then fell down with a bang.

The shot was accurate and hit the heart directly.

The more than a dozen people chasing after hearing the gunshots immediately dispersed as if they had heard an order and began to look for a hiding place.

The man in front of him with a foot wound fired two more shots, first killing the person who was stabbed with scissors not far away, and then dragged the injured leg and shot in the back while continuing to run forward.

As soon as the shots rang out, all the pedestrians on the street began to scream and took refuge in the shops on both sides of the street to avoid being hit by stray bullets.

Li Yixin was no exception, since the pot of moon flowers fell from the window to the ground, he stopped and prepared to walk into the nearest shop.

He understood that there was something wrong with this joint, and that he had to make his actions look like they had nothing to do with it, and that this was a way to protect himself.

At this time, if you immediately reflexively walk away, it will be too conspicuous, and it will easily attract the attention and suspicion of people with intentions.

Walking into a shop on the street should be a normal behavior that can be explained, and he must disguise his identity.

When he heard the continuous gunshots in the street, he squatted on the ground with a frightened face like everyone else in the shop.

This is the reaction of ordinary people when they encounter a sudden shootout, and he must do so if he wants to hide his identity.

Although he was anxious and wanted to know how his comrades were doing, he couldn't go out to check on himself in order to protect himself.

At this time, there was no one else on the street except for the two sides of the firefight, and the gunfight was fierce, and the gunshots rang out one after another.

Less than ten minutes later, the gunfire suddenly stopped.

The people who had taken refuge in the shops on both sides of the street still did not dare to come out, and no one dared to go out to inquire about the situation at this time.

It is clear that the location of the joint has been mastered by the enemy, and even the Chinese medicine shop has been taken control of and a trap has been set up to capture the people who come to the joint.

And in the current situation, he can certainly be the last choice made by his comrades at the most critical moment in order to protect themselves who came to the joint.

Although the comrade in charge of the joint of the underground party organization did not know Li Yixin, at this critical moment, this strange comrade resolutely used his life to send a signal of insecurity to Li Yixin in order to keep the party's secrets.

Li Yixin was both sad and puzzled, it was a very confidential matter for him to come to Stone Town to carry out a mission, why would the enemy know the news so accurately?

What's going on here?

Could it be that the underground party organization in Stone Town has been cracked by the enemy?

Or are there traitors and traitors in the underground party organization?

Li Yixin's heart was in a mess at this time, and he had no clue at all.

He could only temporarily let go of the doubts in his heart and began to think about how to get out.

By this time, the gunfire on the street had stopped for a while, but there was a sound of motorcycle engines and truck brakes.
