There was one place in the Philippines, which no unauthorized visitor could visit, and that was the naval base Cavite. Heavy-armed policemen guard the base around the clock, and no one is allowed to pass through the entrance gate without even a special identity card, not even workers who have forgotten their papers at home. The Chinese Intelligence Service had two agents in this strictly guarded base, which were operating under great risks, but could still provide little information. Telan Ting, the 44-year-old foreman at the submarine dock, was one of them. Since his parents had been murdered during the revolution, the embittered man hate everything, what has to do with the Phillippines. Ting was probably the one among the Chinese agents who had been the easiest to recruit. He lived only for the day when he would fly to China. But now, in the night from the 18th to 19th of July, Telan Ting hide in the shadow of several crates, which were stacked on the loading dock of the submarine base. Every fiveteen minutes, two armed guards passed very close to his hiding-place, which was only ten meters away from the moored submarine at the quayside. If he was discovered here, Ting knew that he would be shot at once. The submarine was the latest submarine of the Tirador-class, the brand new Carricero. Only the hope of a life in China and a bonus of 25000 dollars made him risk his life again. "Another of these annoying boats, which is ready to sail" he said, "I must report that immediately."

It was only a few minutes before the guards came back, and so he decided to lay at the top of the crate, hoping that the guards would not look upwards. Telan Ting breathed a sigh of relief, the guards came and went back without looking closer. But now he had to see how he could came out of the base, which was anything but easy at eleven o'clock in the evening. Fortunately, Ting was one of the most senior workers who had lived in Cavite for many years. If he have even a half-plausible explanation why he was so late at the base, the policemen at the gate surely would let him pass.
