Chapter 113
The investigation report received by Cheng Zheng mentioned that when Qian Hongzhuo was on the green train returning to the north to visit his relatives, a Capital Broadcasting Station announcer named Li Hongyuan talked to him and the two had a very pleasant conversation.
After investigation, it was found that the two later met in the capital.
However, Li Hongyuan did not seem to be abnormal. His family members were all workers at the Capital Cotton Mill, and they were of good family background. He was also a regular employee at the radio station, and his wife worked at the supply and marketing cooperative. The whole family lived in a large compound, and only Li Hongyuan had a staff dormitory at the company, and he often lived in both places. According to the neighbors, there were no conflicts in the family, and the people in the families got along well. The family lived a decent and affluent life, and there was really no condition for them to be spies.
After several contacts with Li Hongyuan himself, there was no suspicion at all. This man was honest and simple, and he said what he thought, and he could not hide anything in his heart. After reading the report, Cheng Zheng also felt that there was nothing suspicious about him.
However, the letter sent by Jian Lu woke him up.
If Qian Hongzhuo was really turned against the radio station, the person who turned him against the radio station might not be Li Hongyuan, who had contact with him on the train.
After all, Qian Hongzhuo stayed in the capital for a few days at that time, and Li Hongyuan and his roommate, Liu Songlin, also known as Liu Ge, went to see Qian Hongzhuo together.
"Lao Liang." Cheng Zheng suddenly understood. They had been confined to a fixed way of thinking. Their eyes were always wandering around the people who had appeared on the train, ignoring the others. "Check this person again, Liu Songlin!"
Liang Haisheng was the only one who was completely confused. "Why investigate him? Aren't you suspecting Li Hongyuan? But there's really nothing suspicious about Li Hongyuan. Now I'm even suspecting myself. Maybe Qian Hongzhuo is really fine?"
"No, Li Hongyuan is indeed fine. The one with the problem might be his roommate, Liu Songlin!"
"Is there a problem with his roommate?"
"That's right. This person is a radio station editor. It's easy for him to tamper with the news releases and pass on the news to Qian Hongzhuo who is listening to the radio. From what I know, this person is very interested in soldiers, college students, and some technical talents. He often makes friends and talks with them, as if he is collecting intelligence and looking for suitable targets for subversion."
Liang Haisheng also became suspicious when he heard this. "Then check this person again!"
Just a few steps out of Cheng Zheng's office, Liang Haisheng turned back and asked, "No, that's not right. How do you know about Liu Songlin's situation?"
No one checked, and the distance was so far. Could it be that Cheng Zheng has become clairvoyant?
Cheng Zheng, who was sitting on a bamboo chair, curled his lips and said, "Someone is secretly sending intelligence."
"Who is it?" Liang Haisheng was curious, "Bring him out to meet me."
"No." Cheng Zheng refused flatly.
——
Jian Lu, whose identity was exaggerated by Cheng Zheng, knew nothing about these things. She was still busy at school and just hoped that the information she provided would be useful.
Ever since the computer department exchange activity ended, Jian Lu began to look forward to the day when she could use a mobile phone and a computer as soon as possible.
The most urgent task is to sponsor them!
Today's students need to go through layers of approval for funding to conduct research. In many cases, an application submitted several months ago may take several months to be approved, and by then the funding has been wasted.
Many research projects have not been approved or their funding has been cut in half.
Jian Lu, who is now wealthy from the pearl farm, is very generous in her spending.
After listening to their research plan and their preparations to work towards a lightweight computer, I directly sponsored them with 5,000 yuan.
Five thousand yuan was a huge sum of money at that time, but Jian Lu knew that investing in these big guys would only be worth it.
Gu Yangming originally had some vague ideas about the development of computers, but after his last communication with Jian Lu, the ideas in his mind gradually became clearer.
However, R&D technology is difficult and this road is not easy to take.
Fu Zongbo also devoted himself to it. He planned to go to the capital after graduation. His home was in the capital. When the job was assigned, he would see if he could help make connections and get a job in the capital.
"Classmate Jian Lu, do you want to visit the capital during the winter vacation?" Since Fu Zongbo knew that Jian Lu was married and her husband was particularly outstanding, he put away his thoughts and only wanted to let this wealthy classmate see the success of their team's research. "We also set up an office, which is pretty impressive."
Going to the capital? Jian Lu was a little tempted.
"Sun Shangmei is going too, so you will have a companion." Fu Zongbo continued to persuade them.
Jian Lu remembered that this was the case. Sun Shangmei was going to meet Xu Jun's parents, and the two of them were ready to leave during the winter vacation.
"Okay, I'll go get Zhang's introduction letter!" Action speaks louder than words. Jian Lu really wanted to visit the capital of this era. It must be different.
First, she could watch the entrepreneurial process of several computer science bosses and invest in them. Second, she wanted to see if there was a chance to find the problem of the spy who turned Qian Hongzhuo against the government. If she could recall the plot in the book, it would be best to kill him directly.
However, you can’t just go out and about now, you need a letter of introduction. Usually, there will be a train attendant to check it. It’s either a letter of introduction issued by your work unit for work in a certain place, or a letter of introduction issued by the street office or commune brigade, such as a letter of introduction to visit relatives in a certain place.
You can only buy train tickets with a letter of introduction, and you can only buy tickets to the destination written on the letter of introduction.
It is quite convenient for Jian Lu to get a letter of introduction now. Cai Xiujuan can issue it, and she can directly write a letter of introduction for her to discuss a job at Capital Medical Store and send it to her.
After spending money at the post office to call Cai Xiujuan and tell her about this, Jian Lu also called Cheng Zheng.
She had decided to go to the capital during the winter vacation without consulting him first. Jian Lu could already imagine the words he was saying to try to convince her.
As a result, when Jian Lu told the story, Cheng Zheng on the other end of the phone responded in an uncharacteristic way, "Okay, be careful on the road, what time do you plan to go and what time do you plan to come back?"
Jian Lu: “…?”
This is not the Captain Cheng I know!
Shouldn't he have refused plaintively and said that his family was waiting for him to come back?
"Captain Cheng, do you have any opinions?" Jian Lu said with a smile on her face on the other end of the phone.
"No, you can go out and play, and the main thing is that you can go with some classmates, so I can rest assured. When are you going?"
"Go on the 11th and be back on the 18th."
"Okay, be careful on the road." Cheng Zheng paused and told her about his plans for December, "I will also be on a mission by then."
"Oh~" No wonder! Jian Lu suddenly realized that maybe she had just gone to the capital and back, and this person hadn't finished his mission yet. No wonder he suddenly became so generous! "Are you going out to sea again?"
"We won't be going out to sea this time. We'll be on another mission."
Huh? "Where are you going?"
Cheng Zheng was silent for a moment, "It's a secret mission, and cannot be disclosed."
"Okay." Jian Lu is used to it, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. "Then I guess I'll go back first, I'll wait for you at home then."
"OK."
Cheng Zheng hung up the phone and stared blankly, holding the train ticket to the capital on December 13th in his hand.
He is on a secret mission to work with the intelligence officers of the Capital Military Region to investigate the spies at the radio station.
——
The second semester of my junior year ended with the weather getting colder.
Winter vacation arrived as scheduled, and the students were most excited. Facing the cold winter wind, Jian Lu, Fu Zongbo, Xu Jun, and Sun Shangmei boarded the train to the capital.
The four of us bought hard seats and had to take a three-day and two-night train ride to the capital. The speed of trains nowadays has increased a lot compared to ten years ago, and the journey has also been shortened.
However, the hard seats were unbearable, so they talked all the way and finally arrived in the capital wrapped in thick cotton jackets.
As soon as I got off the train and stepped onto the territory of the Capital Railway Station, a cold wind whistled past. Snowflakes were already floating in the sky, and the snow petals fell to the ground, melting into water and forming stains under the feet of passers-by.
"Let's go to my house for dinner first." Xu Jun's home was in a large compound in Dongfeng Hutong in the capital. His parents and eldest brother and his wife's family were at home.
The Xu family was very enthusiastic to see their son coming back with his girlfriend and classmates.
Dozens of plump white dumplings and a pot of mutton soup were served on the table, and everyone ate until their stomachs were full.
That day, Jian Lu originally wanted to stay in a guesthouse, but was kept by the hospitable Xu family, who insisted on entertaining their son's classmates. In addition, Sun Shangmei was a little scared as it was her first time visiting her target's home, so she begged Jian Lu to stay with her. The two girls then stayed in one room, and Xu Jun and his nephew squeezed into another.
Jian Lu deeply felt the enthusiasm of people of that era. Their son's classmates also treated her very well. Jian Lu went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a pound of orange candies and a pound of blessing cakes for the Xu children to eat.
Sun Shangmei gets along well with the Xu family. One side is friendly and kind, while the other side is well-behaved and sensible. How could she be dissatisfied?
On the third day after arriving in the capital, Jian Lu, Xu Jun, Sun Shangmei and Fu Zongbo went to Q University. The person who brought them in was Gu Yangming, who had borrowed five Q University badges.
Of course, the fifth one is prepared for Song Bainian from B University.
The group entered one of the country's top universities, and a sense of reverence arose spontaneously. A century-old prestigious school is naturally different from the ordinary, and it seems that it makes everyone artificially put a layer of filter on it.
Sun Shangmei was very curious about Q University. She asked a lot of questions along the way and even specifically asked whether the food in Q University’s cafeteria was good.
"Let's go to the cafeteria and eat. It's my treat."
Gu Yangming, of course, had to fulfill his duty as a good host and took a few people to try out Q University's cafeteria. Students from the three universities even started a debate about which university's cafeteria had better food.
Of course, no conclusion was reached in the end and no one was convinced.
Jian Lu was thinking about the radio station, so she casually asked a few people if they were still in touch with Brother Liu from the radio station.
"Brother Liu is a very warm person. He came to visit us a few times later. However, we were busy with research and really didn't have time to see him. We haven't been in touch with him recently."
"Really? Actually, I'm quite curious about the radio station. I want to see how the radio is played on the radio. I wonder if I can go to the radio station and take a look?"
Gu Yangming scratched his head, thinking it was not easy to go. But Jian Lu was the one who generously sponsored his team with 5,000 yuan, so how could she be an ordinary person?
"Well, wait a minute, let's think of a solution."
"Okay!" Jian Lu still wanted to get in touch with Brother Liu to see if she could remember some details from the book.
In the afternoon, Gu Yangming took Jian Lu and others directly to the Central Radio Station. Sun Shangmei and Xu Jun had to go back to Xu Jun's uncle's house to visit relatives, so they left first.
Gu Yangming was working for the Q University Campus Radio Station. He showed his student ID and school badge and wanted to visit and learn at the Central Broadcasting Station. "Comrade, I also know your broadcaster Liu Songlin."
Because the Q University Campus Radio Station had previously organized student aid activities with Central Broadcasting Station, and perhaps because Gu Yangming was too eloquent, the staff of Central Broadcasting Station believed them and let them in, and arranged for someone to receive them.
After all, college students these days are of very high quality, not to mention those from the top institutions of learning.
It was the first time that Jian Lu stepped into the country's largest radio station. Looking at the three-story building, there were dense crowds of people coming and going, and the pace of work was obviously much faster than other places.
"Hey, isn't that Brother Liu?" Song Bainian was the first to notice Liu Songlin, who was talking to someone on a chair in the lobby. Opposite him sat a man in a white military uniform. Only his profile could be seen, and he had an aura of majesty without even getting angry.
Gu Yangming led a few people over to say hello. When he saw the soldier opposite Liu Songlin, he saluted him in a familiar manner. He admired the military very much.
"Let me introduce you. This is Captain Chen Zheng, a naval officer from Donglin Island in City C. He came to the capital to visit his wife. This is a college student from Q and B University. He's amazing. Hey, is this your classmate...?"
The only person Liu Songlin didn't know was Jian Lu, whom he thought was Gu Yangming's classmate.
"This is Jian Lu, a college student from H University."
"Chen Zheng" nodded to a few people, his eyes swept across them from head to toe, staying on Jian Lu's face for only a second longer, and then looking away in an instant.
Jian Lu didn't care about Liu Songlin, who was suspected to be a spy at the moment. She stared at the soldier who was said to have come to the capital to visit his wife for a while until their eyes met.
Chen Zheng? Cheng Zheng?
Visiting your wife, right? You have a wife in the capital?
