Military ace? No, I am the knife stuck deepest in their hearts.
My name is Xiao Qiang. I was selected by the military commander at the age of 17. I was trained from Qingpu to Shanghai and became an officer or at least a staff officer.
Dai Li praised me as a century-old genius, and my colleagues regarded me as a rising star.
They don't know that every time I hand over a top-secret plan, I leave a door open for my opponents.
They called me "Night Owl", thinking that my allegiance was only to the night.
Until 1949, on the eve of the liberation of Shanghai, my superior Chen Mo pointed his gun at me and asked with red eyes: "Brother, who are you working for?"
I looked at the brightening sky outside the window and smiled:
"I have sold my life for six years for the coming dawn."
This is a desperate attempt that begins with conspiracy and ends with faith. It's my own two-sided war.
