Roxane Witke书中相关记载节录
以下均引自Roxane Witke的Comrade Chiang Ch'ing:
1.
No matter how obtuse she tried to be, though, the police were unshakable in their determination to investigate her revolutionary connections. Their persistence, she later learned, was triggered by a "woman traitor" among the prisoners, who tipped off the police by telling them that Li Yun-ho (Chiang Ch'ing) was not so naive as she pretended.(P91)
2.
Among the political offenders was a woman worker who had been detained in that prison for eight months by the time Chiang Ch'ing arrived. Her story, Chiang Ch'ing said, was typical of many good comrades who were duped by Party renegades. In this case the renegade was a prison official dubbed Hei Ta-han (literally, Big Black Chinese, a nickname drawn from bandit argot and applied here to a man whose badness lay in betrayal of the CCP), a man formerly associated with the "erroneous leftist line" of the Wang Ming group. Born in Anhwei province, Hei Ta-han became a Communist and served on the Kiangsu Provincial Committee of the CCP. In the course of political work in Shanghai he was arrested. Within two hours he betrayed the Party by joining the KMT secret police, but he still pretended to be a good Communist. As a secret KMT agent he became involved in a case that made him the model of infamy in leftist circles. There was a certain woman comrade he knew and was determined to destroy. For days he pursued her, finally tracking her down to the French Concession, where she was living in relative political immunity. He won her confidence and told her that her identity had been revealed to the authorities; her life was in grave danger; she should move her household immediately and take all her Party documents with her.(P91-92)

Soon another lot of newly arrested women arrived. As Chiang Ch'ing glanced over them, she was astonished to recognize among them five or six of her former students. Through the prison grapevine she learned that the Party had commissioned two of them to deliver the money, bread, and quilt to her. Their pouting expressions betrayed their resentment of her; they suspected that their handling of her relief packages was the incriminating act that had led to their arrest. Infuriated that these women should be punished unfairly, Chiang Ch'ing demanded the right to speak to the prison administrators. Flanked by guards who led her to the main office, Chiang Ch'ing stood before the administrators and denounced them loudly: "You failed to catch real comrades! Nor do you know how to catch real women! You've only nabbed a few girls who were kind enough to send me a blanket.. Why don't you shoot me?" Swelling with rage, Hei Ta-han struck Chiang Ch'ing across the face. She was stunned and barely able to keep on her feet. He swore at her in foul language. She shot back, "How dare you curse me!"(P93)

If the girl carried out her instructions, nothing came of them. As a last resort Chiang Ch'ing decided to use foreign connections because she knew that prison officials were frightened to receive foreigners on their premises. She told another former student who was about to be released to arrange for a foreigner from the YWCA to come and guarantee her. That worked. A foreigner arrived, testified to her innocence, and she was released.(P94)
