One day in 1978, Li Chaohong had just returned home from his work when he saw a young boy running out of the house of his neighbor, Wang Jinying. "I went to Grandma Wang's house again to ask for candy to eat, be careful to eat too many teeth." Li Chaohong quipped to the little boy.
"No, I learned to write with another mother-in-law at Grandma Wang's house!" The little boy said and wanted to run away.
Li Chaohong quickly grabbed the boy, he and his neighbor Wang Jinying have been old neighbors for decades, and they have never heard of any relatives and friends from her. She whispered to the little boy how long the mother-in-law who taught him to write had been at Grandma Wang's house, and the little boy was a little impatient: "It's been a long time, I don't remember." ”
After saying that, the little boy ran away with a cigarette, leaving Li Chaohong stunned in place. The grandmother Wang in the little boy's mouth is called Wang Jinying, she has been single for so many years, how can there be an old woman suddenly, Li Chaohong thought of Wang Jinying's strange behavior over the years, and he couldn't help but doubt Wang Jinying in his heart.
Because the mainland was in full swing to arrest Kuomintang agents at that time, Li Chaohong immediately reported to the Huangyan County Public Security Bureau in Zhejiang Province that suspicious people had been found, so who was the mother-in-law in the little boy's mouth? Is she really a Kuomintang agent?
What happened to the 1978 spy case? Interested old irons can type "want to know" on the barrage, and the excitement will be revealed for you soon!
In order to avoid pursuit, men pretend to be women and hide in the attic
On December 13, 1978, the Huangyan County Public Security Bureau in Zhejiang Province received a report from Li Chaohong, an employee of the Ningxi Supply and Marketing Cooperative, who claimed that a neighbor's attic might have hidden Kuomintang agents.
Although the Kuomintang had already retreated to Taiwan in 1949, Chiang Kai-shek had arranged a large number of Kuomintang spies before leaving, who were pervasive and lurking throughout the country, waiting for an opportunity to sabotage the newly founded New China.
Over the years, the central government and the public security have also arrested a lot of spies, which depend on the people's reports, and once the report is accurate, it has to be said that the eyes of the masses are bright, so the public security bureau attaches great importance to Li Chaohong's report and immediately arranges personnel to investigate.
Wang Jinying, who opened the door, looked very panicked when she saw the uniformed public security officers. When he heard that the police were going to check on the attic, his eyes were even more erratic, but Wang Jinying knew that he could not stop it, so he could only let them go upstairs.
When the police arrived at the attic, they found that the attic windows were all pasted with newspapers, and it was impossible to see the layout inside without turning on the lights. After turning on the light, it was found that there were elaborate organs in the house, and the public security police, who had had a lot of dealings with the Kuomintang, quickly dismantled the organs, and found a "woman" with long hair and heavy makeup in the innermost part.
In addition, a radio station, a batch of guns and ammunition and an operational map were found, and it was basically certain that this "woman" was a Kuomintang agent. This "woman" is a little strange, rough-looking, and her figure is extremely bloated, when the police took her photo to investigate and visit the neighbors, many elderly people immediately recognized it, it turned out that this "woman" was a man pretending to be a woman.
Tu Riqiao, the husband of Wang Jinying, left home to join the Kuomintang during the Agrarian Revolution, and never returned home. Wang Jinying only thought that her husband had died in battle, who knew that late one night, a "woman" came to the door, and this "woman" was Tu Riqiao.
Tu Riqiao told Wang Jinying that since the defeat of the Kuomintang, he had been hiding all over the country, and now he was penniless, so he had to come back to find her, and told Wang Jinying that his current identity was very special and could not be known by anyone, otherwise he would be killed.
Wang Jinying is a traditional woman who has never read a book in her life, and in her heart, she has been worried about Tu Riqiao for many years, so she cares about the love of husband and wife, and decides to cooperate with Tu Riqiao and hide him in the attic of her home.
Whenever the government came to do the census, under the cover of Wang Jinying, Tu Riqiao was always able to hide smoothly, and this hiding was more than 20 years. If Li Chaohong hadn't heard something suspicious from the mouth of a 5-year-old boy, Tu Riqiao might never have been discovered for the rest of his life.
When the police asked Tu Riqiao why he taught the little boy to read, Tu Riqiao also sighed with emotion: "I have been hiding in hiding for more than 20 years, and my real identity cannot be told to outsiders, this little boy is innocent and cute, for me he is simply an angelic existence, how I wish I was born to the sun like him!" ”
In order to hide his eyes, Tu Riqiao has always dressed up as a woman, even at home. Tu Riqiao has worked hard to hide for more than 20 years, but because of a word from a 5-year-old child, he exposed himself to broad daylight. And Wang Jinying, who has covered Tu Riqiao everywhere, has lived in fear every day for more than 20 years, for fear of revealing a little horse's feet.
In fact, not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Chaohong had already discovered that Wang Jinying was very different from the past, but because the supply and marketing cooperative's work was very busy, he did not care too much, and now that the truth has come out, Li Chaohong has connected the doubts of the past one by one.
Neighbors for many years, after the founding of the country became mysterious
The men, women and children in Ningxi Town basically know that Wang Jinying's husband has long followed the Kuomintang army, and Wang Jinying has lived as a lonely old man for decades.
Wang Jinying is kind and kind, treats the neighbors very well, especially likes children, every time he makes something delicious, he will take it to the neighbor's children to eat, and the surrounding people also pity Wang Jinying to live alone, often go to the house to care about Wang Jinying, Li Chaohong is like this.
As the closest neighbor to Wang Jinying, Li Chaohong always went to Wang Jinying's house every three to five to chat with her, and after a long time, he would talk like a sister.
However, soon after the founding of New China, Wang Jinying suddenly seemed to be a changed person, and when he used to meet neighbors on the road, Wang Jinying would always greet him warmly, but now he walked over in a hurry every time without saying a word.
Li Chaohong felt very strange, so he knocked on the door of Wang Jinying's house, and after a long time, Wang Jinying came over and opened a door crack, but did not let Li Chaohong enter the house, Li Chaohong saw Wang Jinying's somewhat pale face through the door crack, and asked: "Sister Wang, are you sick." “
Wang Jinying, who didn't know what excuse to use to prevaricate Li Chaohong, immediately took over the conversation: "Yes, big sister, I have a cold, don't come to me recently, it's not good to infect you when you turn back." ”
Li Chaohong, who was hot in the ancient road, immediately said that he was not afraid of infection, and he could stay to take care of one or two, who expected that Li Chaohong had not finished speaking, Wang Jinying quickly said: "No need, no need, I can do it myself, you go back first!" Wang Jinying closed the door after speaking. Li Chaohong thought that Wang Jinying just didn't want to trouble her, so he left without much thought.
Since then, Li Chaohong has never had the opportunity to enter Wang Jinying's home, because Wang Jinying always has the door closed, no one is allowed to enter, and no longer interacts with Li Chaohong, even if they meet, they only greet a few words, the former good sisters suddenly become rusty, although Li Chaohong feels a little sad, but he does not think deeply, just that Wang Jinying is getting older, and his temper is becoming more and more strange.
Strange things are not only this one, Wang Jinying's attic suddenly plastered with newspapers one day, the window is not opened once a year, it stands to reason that the attic space is small, should open more windows for ventilation, Li Chaohong felt very strange, once met Wang Jinying directly asked her, why did the attic window seal, Wang Jinying vaguely said that he was afraid of light.
And what made Li Chaohong feel even more strange was that in the middle of the night, when she got up conveniently, she saw through the window that the attic of Wang Jinying's house was still lit with faint lights, and more than once, as long as Li Chaohong got up in the middle of the night, she could see the lights of the attic.
But when Li Chaohong asked Wang Jinying during the day, Wang Jinying said that he couldn't sleep and was cleaning up in the attic. Li Chaohong was even more puzzled about what was in the attic that made Wang Jinying clean up in the middle of the night.
For Wang Jinying's strange behavior, Li Chaohong wanted to go to her home many times to find out, but Wang Jinying always turned her away, and as a neighbor, Li Chaohong was embarrassed to break in.
In this way, many years have passed, and in these years, Wang Jinying has become more reclusive, in addition to coming out to purchase daily necessities, Wang Jinying basically does not even go out, even if he goes out, he does not talk to others, and his personality has become more eccentric.
Once Li Chaohong met Wang Jinying who was buying vegetables in the vegetable market, and found that she not only bought a lot of vegetables, but also had a package of tea leaves just bought in the vegetable basket, Li Chaohong knew before that Wang Jinying did not like to drink tea, and buying so many dishes can not be eaten by a person in a week, Li Chaohong asked Wang Jinying how to buy so many dishes, is not afraid of bad?
Wang Jinying said that she has eaten a lot of food recently, and she said that she has been older recently and loves to drink tea. At that time, Li Chaohong just felt that Wang Jinying was becoming more and more strange and mysterious, but now that he thinks about it, it turns out that Wang Jinying covered Tu Riying and hid at home, and there have long been traces to follow.
In December 1978, Tu Riqiao, who had been hiding for 29 years, was arrested on charges of being a Kuomintang agent, which also caused quite a stir in Huangyan County.
Tu Riqiao is a native of Ningxi Town, Huangyan County, many old people remember him vividly and hate him to the bone, don't see that Tu Riqiao was arrested as a secret agent of the Kuomintang, and Tu Riqiao was a bully that everyone shouted at in the town.
A bully on one side joined the national army to save his life
Tu Riqiao was born in Xiaokeng Commune in Huangyan County, and his ancestral family was prosperous, and when it was passed on to Tu Riqiao's father's generation, his family was even richer. Tu Riqiao's father, because his family was rich and powerful, withheld the peasants' grain and enslaved the villagers, and was a very famous local landowner. And Tu Riqiao has been with his father since he was a child to see the world, and naturally developed a bad problem.
Although Tu Riqiao's father is arrogant and domineering in the local area, he is very attentive to Tu Riqiao's education. When Tu Riqiao reached school age, his father found him the best private school in the local area, hoping that Tu Riqiao would become a talent.
However, Tu Riqiao is not the material for learning, not only does not study well in class, but also often contradicts the teacher, and in his spare time, he likes to make trouble and bully the weak. The teacher couldn't control Tu Riqiao at all, and finally had to ask his father to bring Tu Riqiao home.
Tu Riqiao, who does not have to go to school, has nothing to do all day long, and every day he wanders the streets with the thugs in his family, and beats and scolds people when he sees people who are not good. Tu Riqiao's bad behavior made everyone in Ten Mile Eight Village know that the Tu family had come out with another Mixed World Demon King.
Out of kindness, some people specially found Tu Riqiao's father and persuaded him to discipline and restrain Tu Riqiao, who expected that his father not only drove people away, but also said smugly that his son had the ability to do so and did not need to be disciplined.
The unfettered Tu Riqiao became even more unscrupulous after that, not only beating and bullying the flat-headed people at will, seizing the private property of peasants, sometimes seeing beautiful girls on the street, he even snatched the girl home, the people of Huangyan County were miserable, but they could not do anything, which further fueled Tu Riqiao's arrogance, plus the Tu family was powerful in the local area, and no one was invincible for a while, but soon Tu Riqiao's good days in Huangyan County came to an end.
In 1927, there was an upsurge in the country to beat landlords, divide fields, and abolish feudal exploitation, and Tujia, as a notorious local landlord family, became the first object of revolutionary struggle.
After the Tu family's fields and property were divided, Tu Riqiao watched his father always be pulled out to parade the streets to show the public, and was ruthlessly criticized, Tu Riqiao's heart was very afraid, he was afraid that he would be criticized by the organization and the people because of the evil things he had done before, and he began to find a way to escape from Huangyan.
At that time, the Kuomintang was recruiting a large number of soldiers across the country, and Tu Riqiao learned that he abandoned his newly married wife Wang Jinying and his elderly parents at home, and took a large amount of money and defected to the Kuomintang.
The emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and Tu Riqiao spent money to open the way, and soon fought with the Kuomintang soldiers. The Kuomintang is rotten internally, and both the leaders and ordinary soldiers are the goods that see the money.
Tu Riqiao defected to the Kuomintang and successfully evaded the people's trial of him. And Tu Riqiao also knew in his heart that no matter how much money there was, there would always be a day when he would sit on the mountain, and if he wanted to gain a foothold in the Kuomintang, he must have a road to make money, and second, he must rise step by step.
Although Tu Riqiao did not go to school for a few days, he was inherently sinister and cunning in his bones, he used some improper means to earn money, and then used this money to honor his boss, who saw that he had a son to teach, so he promoted him, and finally relied only on money to get the rank of captain.
When the war broke out, Tu Riqiao, who was greedy for life and feared death, was worried that the war would be ruthless, and he spent a lot of money just to not go to the front line to participate in the war. It can be seen that it is only a matter of time before the Kuomintang soldiers are defeated, and Tu Riqiao, who has no ability, can even be a captain, and it is really ironic to spend money to buy officials.
Tu Riqiao thought that he had a certain position in the Nationalist army, and when the Kuomintang soldiers were defeated, he thought that he could still go to Taiwan with the Nationalist army, but his top boss only valued his money, and he was dispensable in the Nationalist army.
Just when Tu Riqiao was full of expectations, his superiors arranged for him to stay on the mainland as a special agent and provide intelligence to the Taiwan side at any time. Tu Riqiao originally wanted to escape, but even if he did, he would be arrested by the People's Liberation Army, and he finally accepted the order to become a spy.
At first, Tu Riqiao was in the outflow for a while, but as our party purged the spies more and more, Tu Riqiao really couldn't find a place to hide, so he thought that the most dangerous place was the safest place, so he went back to his hometown to find his wife Wang Jinying, and under the cover of Wang Jinying, Tu Riqiao hid for nearly 29 years without being found.
Because Tu Riqiao stayed in the attic for many years, Wang Jinying was a purdah woman who did not know any political intelligence, Tu Riqiao could not find out any information to the Kuomintang, and the radio station in the attic became a decoration. Tu Riqiao originally wanted to live like this until he died, but he was arrested because of what a child said, and all this may be fate.
With the joint efforts of our party and the entire masses of the people, the Kuomintang spies were wiped out one by one, and Chiang Kai-shek's dream of "counterattacking the mainland" had long been shattered. No matter what the era, anyone or anything that endangers the interests of the country cannot escape the punishment of the law.
