In fact, He Guangzong was still a little worried in his heart, he was afraid that if Deputy Director Ye refused Li Yixin's request to go to Chongqing to meet, Li Yixin would be angry with him, arrest himself and hand him over to the Japanese, or directly kill himself, so as to hide his smuggling.
This is something that He Guangzong thinks is entirely possible.
Because he might be worried about his own life, He Guangzong felt that he should write this interest into a telegram to Deputy Director Ye asking for instructions, and at the same time explained that Li Yixin was willing to sell three boxes of stockings to Xinglong Firm at the original price, so as to prompt Deputy Director Ye to agree to Li Yixin's request to meet.
In the evening, He Guangzong came to the residence of the 'bodyguard'.
The 'bodyguard' happened to finish work relatively early that day, and when he saw He Guangzong suddenly come to the door, he couldn't help but be surprised to let He Guangzong enter the house, and then asked, "Why did you come to me again?"
Is there anything urgent?
” He Guangzong didn't answer directly, but asked the 'bodyguard': "Did you get the radio back last night?"
” The 'bodyguard' smiled and said: "I got it back, you flew so hard to transport the radio station from Chongqing, and it was transported into Stone Town, if I can't get it, then I'm either a fool or a rice bucket." ” He Guangzong nodded, took out a piece of paper from his body, and then replied, "I have a very urgent matter that needs to be reported to Deputy Director Ye, so I drafted a telegram to ask him for instructions.
You're the only one in Stone Town who has a radio, so I'm here for you.
That's the telegram I'm going to send. ” He Guangzong compiled his telegram of request into a cipher number before he came to the 'bodyguard', so the paper in his hand was full of passwords, and the 'bodyguard' couldn't understand it at all.
Because He Guangzong's password is not the same as the password of the 'bodyguard'.
He Guangzong was very cautious, he didn't want the 'bodyguards' to know that he was burdened with the heavy responsibility of Deputy Director Ye's smuggling, because this kind of thing was Deputy Director Ye's private means to accumulate money, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
The 'bodyguard' took it and looked at it, it was all coded numbers, and he knew in his heart that He Guangzong didn't want to know the specific content of the telegram.
However, he didn't care, because he knew that it was best not to inquire about the content of the message that He Guangzong reported to Deputy Director Ye.
Without delay, the 'bodyguard' immediately took out the radio station, and after turning it on, he quickly found the frequency and call sign and sent the telegram.
To be on the safe side, he sent it three times in a row, and only turned it off after making sure that the radio station at the Central Command Headquarters had received the message he had sent.
Then the 'bodyguard' said to He Guangzong: "You go back, Deputy Director Ye's call back will not be so fast, at least until tomorrow after he goes to work during the day, he will not reply to the message."
So you can't wait for a call back tonight, even if you wait here, by the way, where do you live now?
” He Guangzong replied, "I stayed in room 313 of the Kelai Hotel. ” The 'bodyguard' thought for a while and said, "That's it, I won't go out to pull the car during the day tomorrow, and when Deputy Director Ye's call back comes, I will copy it down and find a way to bring it to you." ” He Guangzong frowned and said, "You sent the call back directly to the room?"
That's not good, you're a rickshaw driver now, so it's a bit unreasonable to come to my room so rashly, and you have to find another way to hand me over. ” The 'bodyguard' thought about it and felt that He Guangzong's reason was valid, so he suggested to He Guangzong: "Then set a time, I will bring the message of the return call, pull the rickshaw to the door of the guest hostel, pretend to solicit business and wait for you."
Remember, starting tomorrow at 12 noon, you'll be coming outside the hostel every hour to see if I'm there.
Now I can't give you a specific joint time, after all, no one dares to guarantee when Deputy Director Ye will be able to reply to your request.
Once you see me outside the hostel, you should understand that Deputy Director Ye has called back.
When the time comes, you will go out on my rickshaw, and when you get off the bus, pay me the money we have agreed to pay, and I will fold the reply message into a note and clip it in the change to you. ” He Guangzong thought about it, and also felt that the joint arrangement of the 'bodyguard' was good, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go first."
Remember, this reply telegram from Deputy Director Ye is very important, so as soon as Deputy Director Ye has a return call, you will immediately wait for me at the door of the guest hotel. ” There was nothing to say all night, and at noon the next day, He Guangzong didn't even go out to eat lunch, so hungry and waiting for the 'bodyguard' to bring Deputy Director Ye's call back to him.
According to the prior agreement, He Guangzong only went downstairs after seeing that it was almost 12 o'clock to see if the 'bodyguard' had already brought Deputy Director Ye's call back.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the guest hotel, he saw the 'bodyguard' pulling an empty manpower tricycle out from a distance.
So He Guangzong immediately stretched out his hand to recruit a manpower tricycle.
The 'bodyguard' saw He Guangzong's movements from a distance, and immediately quickened his pace and began to trot.
It's like the normal behavior of an ordinary rickshaw driver after seeing a business.
The reason is very simple, today he and He Guangzong have to hand over the call back from the Central Command Headquarters, and to achieve this goal, He Guangzong must take his car.
In the eyes of the 'bodyguard', when He Guangzong beckoned for a manpower tricycle, he secretly said in his heart: "This idiot He Guangzong is still a little too anxious. ” Because the 'bodyguards' know very well that the business of the rickshaw drivers in Stone Town is not very good, and most of the people in Stone Town are reluctant to pay for human-powered tricycles and would rather walk.
If other rickshaw drivers happen to pass by here at this time, they will inevitably compete with him in order to grab business, and when the time comes, will He Guangzong sit or not?
Fortunately, it was 12 noon at this time, there were very few pedestrians on the street, and the business of rickshaws was very poor, and many rickshaw drivers would use this time to go to lunch, so there were also very few rickshaws on the street.
The 'bodyguard' pulled the rickshaw in front of He Guangzong and asked very respectfully, "Sir, do you want a car?"
” He Guangzong nodded, got into the car directly, and deliberately said the name of a street, and the 'bodyguard' pulled him away.
He turned around, and soon got into a small alley, and when he saw that there was no one around, he whispered to He Guangzong: "Okay, you can get off here." ” After He Guangzong got out of the car, the 'bodyguard' looked around again, and after making sure that there was no one, he did not put the folded paper in the change, but directly handed a piece of paper full of numbers in his pocket to He Guangzong.
Then the 'bodyguard' whispered: "You can only walk back to what you received this morning."
I'll go first. ”
