Chapter 5 Who Is the Camphor Tree
However, the only person who knows the situation of the camphor tree and the only person who knows the camphor tree.Four months ago, he died in the base of the Red Party.

In this way, no one knows the situation of the camphor tree.

Fortunately, when the tree snake needed dead chess, it asked for someone from the Party Affairs Investigation Section and arranged for someone to make its own dead chess.So, the top executive of the Party Affairs Investigation Section came to Suzhou to meet with the tree snake.Tell him that there is a person in the Suzhou station right now who can be the tree snake's dead chess.The two discussed that for the safety of the tree snake, they would not let the tree snake contact that person.Only when necessary, the tree snake can publish a missing person notice in the newspaper and wake him up.

Therefore, apart from knowing that there is a dead chess piece of the camphor tree, he knows nothing about the camphor tree and the tree snake.

Until the matter was urgent this time, the tree snake had to send a notice, wanting to contact Zhangshu.

Ugh!
Looking at the little cloth bag in front of him, the tree snake had a headache.

Is the camphor tree unwilling to be awakened?Or forgot the wake-up signal?or dead?

The tree snake knew that the camphor tree was in the Suzhou station of the Lixing Society, and he was a colleague of himself.

It is precisely because of this that the tree snake put 50 yuan in the small cloth bag.I hope that for the sake of the ocean, Zhang Shu can contact himself.

The worst plan is that Zhang Shu doesn't want to contact him and just takes away the silver coupons.

As long as you take the money, it proves that you have been here!You have received instructions.Receiving the order proves that you are not dead, and you can still meet as agreed.

Zhang Shu picked up the silver coupons and counted them.

One...five...ten...

50 RMB!Not a lot!
impossible!
Click again!
Still 50 yuan.

The tree snake was a little flustered, feeling that something that belonged to him was lost.

After putting down the silver dollar certificate, he went to look at other things.

There are a lot of materials on one page, and the order of the front and back is not chaotic.The jade pendant is still there.

Looking at the ashes in the stove, there were no other traces except for the traces I made when I took out the small cloth bag just now.

What does this mean?It shows that the camphor tree has never touched these things at all.It means he hasn't been here.

Everyone has curiosity, and it is impossible for those who have been here not to turn over the stove.

Why didn't the camphor tree come?Betrayed?

Not like!Judging from the situation I have, if Zhang Shu rebelled, then I will definitely get the news.Besides, if Lixingshe caught the secret agents of the Party Affairs Investigation Section, there would have been a lot of quarrels.

Since there is no mutiny, why not accept the order.

According to the regulations of the organization, when the tree snake issued a notice, the camphor tree had to come to the joint.

Unless the camphor tree is dead!

The tree snake wrapped the small cloth bag and continued to place it in the stove.

He hoped that perhaps Camphor Tree hadn't been able to make contact.Wait and see, if we post another three days of announcements, maybe the camphor tree will come.

Regardless of whether the camphor tree can come or not, right now, the tree snake has to change from passive to active.

He wants to take the initiative to investigate and find out who Zhang Shu is.

In fact, the tree snake has been doing this work.And investigated for two months.

Now, in his heart, there are three target people.If the camphor tree is not dead, then the camphor tree must be one of these three people.

Zhou Lin is one of these three people.

And Zhou Lin is currently in the hospital.He has the best conditions to come to the small courtyard.

Then, let's start with Zhou Lin.

After leaving the courtyard, the tree snake went directly to the First National Hospital.

Arriving at Ward [-], Tree Snake found that the bed was empty.

After asking many people, I found out that Zhou Lin had already left the hospital and returned to Suzhou Railway Station after nine o'clock.

Go back after nine o'clock?Did you really go back?

During this time, the tree snake secretly investigated Zhou Lin and learned about his life in the hospital.Meal time, free time.What made the tree snake suspicious and put Zhou Lin in the circle of suspicion was Zhou Lin's behavior of asking Nurse Wang to buy a Suzhou newspaper every day.

If Zhou Lin is a camphor tree, then he should buy a Suzhou newspaper every day and read the missing person notices in the advertisement column above.

By the way, did Zhou Lin buy a newspaper today?
Tree Snake found a female nurse: "Is Nurse Wang in charge of Ward [-] here?"

The female nurse asked, "Why are you looking for her?"

"I'm her cousin."

"Her mother is sick. She asked for leave today and didn't go to work. You are her relative, don't you know about it?"

"I know this! I came to her to urge her to go home."

The tree snake immediately went to the settlement department to check the time when Zhou Lin was discharged from the hospital and settled—[-]:[-] am on March [-].

The tree snake knew that the station master asked Wang Qiang to inform Zhou Lin.

Wang Qiang arrived around eight o'clock.According to the habit, the two chatting time will not be less than half an hour.In other words, before nine o'clock, Zhou Lin must be in the ward.

According to the usual situation, around [-]:[-], Zhou Lin would ask the nurse to buy the newspaper back.Wang Qiang was delayed today.Even if after Wang Qiang left, Zhou Lin asked the nurse to buy newspapers, and the soonest he could get them would be around [-]:[-].

The starting time starts at [-]:[-].

From the hospital to the small courtyard, it takes 15 minutes by rickshaw.Back and forth is three 10 minutes.

I left the hospital at [-]:[-], and I should be back at [-]:[-].

The time indicated on the discharge signature is [-]:[-].The signature was Zhou Lin's handwriting.

It is impossible for Zhou Lin to go to the small hospital and then return to the hospital to sign.The time is wrong.

There is another situation: Nurse Wang asked for leave and did not come to the ward, and the other nurses did not enter Zhou Lin's ward either.Newspapers were neither bought nor delivered.Zhou Lin didn't read the newspaper and didn't go out!

Also, the guard learned that Zhou Lin did not leave the hospital gate before [-]:[-].After [-]:[-], Zhou Lin did not enter the hospital gate again.

Tree Snake made a phone call to Suzhou Station, to one of his subordinates.Inadvertently asked about Zhou Lin's situation.The subordinate said that Zhou Lin had come to the big office at ten o'clock to diffuse cigarettes for everyone.

I went to the big office at ten o'clock, and it took more than 20 minutes to ride a rickshaw on the way.Then, the time Zhou Lin left the hospital should be around 09:30.

The time is right.

All this shows that Zhou Lin didn't read the Suzhou newspaper, nor did he have time to go to the courtyard.

However, the possibility that Zhou Lin is a camphor tree cannot be denied.

He didn't have time to read the newspaper, and of course he didn't go to the small courtyard to meet up.

The investigation continues!

……

Zhou Lin was sleeping in a dream, and was awakened by a sudden knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Zhou Lin shouted dissatisfied.

"Zhou Lin, get up. Gather on the playground. Someone from the headquarters will be here today."

Wang Qiang's voice came from outside the door.

Zhou Lin was startled, that's right, he was not in the hospital anymore, and returned to Suzhou Railway Station.

The morning exercise system of the Lixingshe retains the habits of the military.Therefore, in addition to performing tasks, internal logistics or left-behind personnel must do morning exercises.

(During the period of the Republic of China, before [-], there was a habit of doing morning exercises.)
Zhou Lin quickly put on his clothes, ran to the playground, found a line with few people, and lined up.

After he queued up, the morning exercises began.

Zhou Lin, who has experience in morning exercises in the 21st century, can do morning exercises in the [-]th century without any effort.And do more standard than others.

After finishing the morning exercises, it was the officer who spoke.

Li Xiangshang, station master of Suzhou Station, accompanied three people to the stage.

"Comrades."

Li Xiangshang coughed and continued.

"Do you remember, three months ago, Mr. He from Lixing Society died in Suzhou?"

Everyone on the playground whispered to each other.

"What do you mean? What are you talking about?"

"That's right, He Chengcheng has been dead for more than three months, and it's not a good thing to bring it up again."

"I think so."

"Who are those three people?"

"I heard it belongs to the headquarters of the Lixing Society. They live in our station guest house."

Li Xiangshang shouted: "Quiet!"

The voices from the audience disappeared.

Li Xiangshang was satisfied with everyone's performance, and said, "Let me introduce you. These three are the officers from the headquarters of the Lixing Society. Especially Mr. Zhang, who is one of the thirteen protectors of our Lixing Society. Welcome!"

Li Xiangshang clapped his hands enthusiastically.Everyone on the playground also clapped their hands.

When the applause stopped, Li Xiangshang said: "Next, let's welcome Mr. Zhang to give us a lecture with warm applause."

Amid the applause of everyone, Mr. Zhang came to the stage.Press down with both hands.

The applause from the audience disappeared immediately.

Mr. Zhang looked at the crowd under the stands, and his voice became severe.

"You are all standing here, doing morning exercises, eating breakfast, and smoking cigarettes. But have you ever thought that a hero died in Suzhou three months ago?"

The atmosphere in the audience suddenly turned cold.It was like cold air blowing over, blowing on everyone's bodies.In particular, several women shivered.

Mr. Zhang secretly observed everyone in the audience, and continued: "I have come to Suzhou to investigate this case under the order of Director Dai. We have already got important clues about this case. This is a major espionage case."

As soon as they heard the words of the espionage case, the people in the audience moved forward one after another.

You know, the people in Lixingshe are spies, and the espionage case happened among them.Needless to say, everyone is a suspect!
Nobody wants to be thought of as a suspected spy.

Like everyone else, Zhou Lin looked at the person on the left and then at the person on the right.This action must be done.

When normal people hear this news, they reflect this natural action.If you don't do this movement, you will stand out from the crowd.Then you will be suspected by others.

These common sense, Zhou Ning had learned in the military university.Although he later studied for a master's degree, he did not participate in work.Did not become a real agent worthy of the name.However, after all, his theoretical knowledge of agents is excellent.

Zhou Lin looked at the people on both sides and the people in front and back, but his peripheral vision from the corner of his eyes was always on Mr. Zhang.

He saw that Mr. Zhang and the other two were engrossed in the audience.Those two people shoulder the left and right teams.And Mr. Zhang is in charge of the middle team where Zhou Lin is.
