The Spy

Chapter 145 Traitor Direction
"Captain, we have checked everything, and there is only this one suspect."

The subordinate reported to Yan Ming that Yan Ming had been leading people to track down the last remaining Japanese spy over the past two days.

With the approximate address, it would be easy to find the Japanese spy by checking all the residents in the area.

Yan Ming has rich experience in this regard.

"Get ready to arrest people."

Yan Ming did not verify the suspect's identity as there was no need.

Since the Japanese spy made arrangements here and has not changed them, it proves that he must live here.

Being in similar time period, not being a local, and having a good reputation, these have almost become common characteristics of Japanese spies.

When someone is caught and interrogated, one can easily tell whether he is a Japanese spy.

They arrested a lot of people this time, but the traitor in the department had not been found yet. In order to avoid leaking the news, the Japanese spies used other methods to notify them and let them run away.

As for identity verification, it can be done during the trial. If someone is really wrongly accused, they will release him/her.

Yan Ming's worry is necessary.

In Shanghai Special High Section, Aoki came to the section chief's office again, and Shan Gui sent back the latest information.

"Section Chief, it has been confirmed that another of our people has been captured. It is very likely that Takeda and the others have encountered an accident and failed to return."

Aoki looked serious. Shan Gui reported that the Military Intelligence Department had arrested a lot of people recently and said they were their people.

Shan Gui is not in the Intelligence Department, so he is not clear about the specific situation.

But there are rumors that all the assassins who tried to kill Xu Qingyun have been found, several of them have died, and the few remaining survivors have been imprisoned by Xu Qingyun.

It has been two whole days and there has been no news from Takeda and his men. This information is very likely to be true.

Otherwise, they would carry a radio and be able to send messages to report the situation while on the road, or find a place to call to report.

Even if they didn't report, after such a long time, they would have returned to Shanghai long ago unless they had been walking all the time.

"hateful."

Kawashima slammed the table. At the moment, they had limited intelligence and didn't even know how many of their own people had been arrested.

There is a high probability that something has happened to the people in the action team, but who are the others who were arrested?
He has no idea who the Military Intelligence Department has arrested.

Shan Gui’s level is too low, so he cannot be allowed to rashly inquire about the information, otherwise this important chess piece may be lost.

He no longer dared to look down on the Military Intelligence Department in the slightest.

In other words, he values ​​Xu Qingyun more.

"Team leader, do you want the observer to report the situation?"

If they wanted to know whether anything happened to their people, they could activate the observer to find out. Kawashima hesitated for a moment and finally shook his head.

"Not for now. Just send a message to each team leader and ask them to report the situation."

The situation was unclear, so he didn't dare to make any unusual moves for fear that the more he moved, the more loopholes would be revealed.

"Hay."

Aoki knew that the section chief was cautious, but there was really no good solution at the moment. He didn't know which link had gone wrong, and even if he activated the observers, he might not be able to find out the truth.

Observers don't know much.

Aoki sent telegrams to each group according to the scheduled contact time, but it took several days to receive all the replies.

"Qingyun, are you free?"

Miao Feng walked into Xu Qingyun's office and Xu Qingyun stood up immediately.

"Chief Miao, I'm free. If you have anything, just call me. Why did you come here in person?"

Miao Feng is the deputy section chief, his superior, and Xu Qingyun must give him the respect he deserves.

"You're not far away. It's okay for me to walk a few more steps."

Miao Feng walked into the office with a smile on his face. He had no choice but to come to see Xu Qingyun.

It's been so many days since the director handed the traitor case to him, but he still hasn't been able to find the person.

The traitor had been leaking information all along, and Xu Qingyun's situation was leaked by the traitor. When the director found out about it, he was furious and called him over and gave him a severe scolding.

He went to Xu Zhanjie for advice.

Xu Zhanjie suggested that he should go to Xu Qingyun, as Xu Qingyun was best at handling this type of case. Xu Qingyun was the only one in the entire intelligence department who could help him, and Xu Zhanjie was powerless.

"Chief Miao, if you have anything to say, just tell me. Don't be polite to me."

Xu Qingyun said with a smile. Miao Feng pondered for a while and finally spoke: "Okay, I won't hide it anymore. The director asked me to find the traitor, but I haven't been able to find the identity of the traitor yet. I came to ask you for advice."

As a deputy section chief, he used the word "ask for advice", which was enough to show that he was really forced into a corner.

Otherwise, no one would bow to his subordinates.

"You are too polite, Chief Miao. How much have you found out now?"

Xu Qingyun didn't waste any words and asked directly. This traitor was very dangerous and his attack was related to the traitor. If the traitor hadn't provided his license plate number and clothes, the Japanese would not have found him so quickly.

"We found some..."

Miao Feng said quickly that he had indeed been busy during this period, and had investigated the insiders based on a few clues.

First, the Intelligence Department was deceived and cleared of suspicion, followed by some important section chiefs and so on.

These were the clues provided to him by Xu Qingyun.

Based on the partial intelligence the Japanese spies had on them, Miao Feng narrowed the suspicions to the Telecommunications Department, General Affairs Department, Interrogation Department and Operations Department.

The Inspection Department is far away from them and is not clear about many of their situations.

But there are hundreds of people in the four departments together. It is not easy to find the hidden traitor among so many people.

He can't possibly monitor everyone.

"Chief Miao, I don't think this person's rank is too high. Also, he must have seen me."

"I've thought about what you said, but there are many people who have seen you, and the number is still too many."

Miao Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head. They were all in the same unit and Xu Qingyun often went out. Even if he saw him outside, he would still be able to know his situation.

No contact required at all.

"I mean, he's seen me more than once."

There was no other way, Xu Qingyun could only take the initiative to remind him. This time, the other party knew that he liked to wear formal clothes, and it was impossible for him to draw such a conclusion after meeting him once.

If it doesn't work twice, it must be many times.

This is a clue. Xu Qingyun has not been in the Military Intelligence Department for long. He spends most of his time outside handling cases or in the Intelligence Department. It is not easy for others to see him many times.

Miao Feng was slightly stunned, and finally understood what Xu Qingyun meant.

"You mean, he had many opportunities to see you?"

"Yes."

Xu Qingyun nodded. This person knew his license plate number. Either he had seen him drive this car, or he learned it from somewhere else.

Vehicle allocation is not a secret, but their intelligence department has more than one vehicle. How do the other party know it in so much detail?
Apart from the General Affairs Department, only they know about it.

If it was the Intelligence Department, and the traitor was not with them, then the traitor must have asked their people about it. Miao Feng had checked this, and no one had leaked it.

"The Operations Department doesn't know about my situation."

Xu Qingyun said again that this time the operations department helped him track down the assassin and protected him in the hospital, which was very nice of them.

The Operations Department is the largest department in the office. They have a separate office building, which is a bit far away from the Intelligence Department.

If you want to know the situation of the Intelligence Department, it is impossible unless they are guarding the gate or come to the Intelligence Department.

"You mean, the Operations Department can be eliminated first?" Miao Feng's eyes lit up. If the Operations Department could be eliminated, a lot of energy could be saved, since they had the largest number of people.

"We haven't looked for people from the Operations Department before. Even if they tried to get information from the internal department, they didn't look for people from the Intelligence Department. We can exclude them for now and focus on questioning people from the other three departments."

Xu Qingyun smiled and nodded. During the last self-examination, Lu Dawang did not tell the truth. Later, he killed Gong Zhaolin who leaked the information to him. No one in the Intelligence Department dared to hide anything anymore.

The traitor is not with them, but they deliberately conceal the truth and help the traitor, and ultimately they are the ones who get killed.

"I understand. Thank you Qingyun."

Miao Feng nodded suddenly, feeling as if the clouds had parted and the blue sky was revealed.

"I suggest that we focus on investigating the General Affairs Department and the Telecommunications Department. The Interrogation Department knows more. If there is a mole there, more intelligence can be leaked."

Xu Qingyun suggested that the traitor case did not concern him and he would not interfere too much.

But the traitor must be found out as soon as possible, otherwise it will be inconvenient for him to do anything in the future.

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

There are only two departments left, and someone must be keeping an eye on Xu Qingyun, so the next investigation will not be difficult.

The main reason was that his suspicions were too broad and he didn't have an accurate direction for the investigation, so he was confused and didn't know how to start.

Today, Xu Qingyun not only helped him narrow the scope of the investigation, but also pointed him in a clear direction.

The traitor must be keeping an eye on Xu Qingyun and getting information about him.

Vehicles and clothes are key.

Especially the clothes, he must have seen Xu Qingyun before, and more than once.

Miao Feng left in a hurry and arranged for people to conduct a secret investigation of the General Affairs Department and the Telecommunications Department. He believed that this time he would be able to find out the traitor.

The next day, Xu Qingshi and Xu Erxi stood in front of a new grave mound.

There was no tombstone, but there were rich tributes in front of it, and inside was a high-quality coffin.

It is more than 50 kilometers away from Nanjing City, outside another small town.

The coffin was purchased here to prevent anyone from noticing the missing body and conducting an investigation in Nanjing.

They didn't buy it in Nanjing, unless the investigators expand the scope, but expanding the scope means not just investigating one place outside the city, but also investigating the surrounding areas.

People here don't know them, so it's not easy to find out about them.

What’s more, the Party Affairs Investigation Office didn’t even know where Mr. Lian was buried before.

The person who knows about this is Xu Qingyun. Judging from his performance, he will not take this matter too seriously. Xu Qingyun has more important tasks and he is still tracking down Japanese spies.

The next thing he needs to do is to consolidate his position.

He cannot remain a deputy forever because his power is too limited and he cannot do many things he wants to do.

The second is to carry on Mr.’s last wish and find a way to get in touch with the organization.

Since Mr. can find the organization, Xu Qingshi believes that he can find it too.

"Section Chief, except for the tea group, all other groups have called back."

Two days later, Aoki came hurriedly to report that Chaye was the code name of Jian Mingfei, who was dead. Even with his code book, they could only translate the message but could not respond.

Everyone has a different way of calling, and if they reply rashly, the other party will definitely know that it is not them who are calling back.

Xu Qingyun had no choice.

"The Tea Group, are they in trouble?"

Kawashima's heart sank. Since the team leader didn't call back, it was very likely that something had happened to him. If the team leader was caught and confessed, it would be equivalent to the entire team being destroyed.

The last time he lost an intelligence team, he was scolded by the chief section chief. If he loses another one, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as scolding him.

"It's not clear yet. I'm going to send a command to the observer and ask him to check on the other members of the tea group."

Aoki shook his head. Observers and intelligence officers are horizontal, and intelligence officers are unaware of the existence of observers.

If something happens to the intelligence team, as long as the observer is fine, they can get the news back in time.

"Tell me immediately if you have any news."

Kawashima gave the order, and he was a little confused. This time he sent people to assassinate Xu Qingyun, but not only did they fail, but they also lost six good players in the action team and an intelligence team.

But how did the tea group get lost?

They have no connection with the Military Intelligence Department. How were they found?

How did Xu Qingyun know of their existence?
The mountain ghosts had reported it before, and Xu Qingyun had recently arrested some of their people. These people were most likely members of the Tea Group, including Tea himself.

"Team leader, there's activity on Liao Wenting's radio. Order number three, with a number four, is for him to verify four locations."

Xu Qingyun was in the office when Yan Ming suddenly ran over.

He had already caught the second person, and the interrogation results were not beyond his expectations; he was indeed a Japanese spy.

This group was almost completely wiped out by them.

He was leading his men to capture traitors and search their homes when his subordinates suddenly brought him news that there was movement on the radio, so he immediately came back to report.

"Have Liao Wenting call them back and tell them that there are situations everywhere, including gun battles in two places."

Xu Qingyun immediately replied that it seemed that the Japanese had not yet discovered that the observer had been exposed, and this must not be known to them.

Liao Wenting has already confessed. Give him some benefits and ask him to cooperate and call back.

Before calling back, he would be threatened with the electric chair.

As long as he follows orders, he will be rewarded with a delicious meal. If he dares to make any unusual moves, his fate will be very miserable.

Kawada is no longer human.

Every time Xu Qingyun tortured Kawada, he would let the surrendered Japanese spies see Kawada's miserable condition.

Let them understand the consequences of confrontation.

"Yes."

Yan Ming immediately went to the prison to bring Liao Wenting out, and personally took him outside to make preparations.

When he was on the phone, Yan Ming would be by his side, staring at him. If he dared to say a wrong word, today would become an unforgettable day for him.

At the appointed time, Liao Wenting obediently followed Yan Ming's instructions and reported the situation to Shanghai.

"Well done, what would you like to eat today?"

Pulling Liao Wenting back, Yan Ming asked with a smile, and Liao Wenting's eyes lit up: "Roast chicken, braised pork."

"No problem, would you like some wine to go with it?"

"It would be better if there was wine."

Liao Wenting swallowed his saliva. He hadn't had a decent meal in the past few days and was already craving for it.

"I'll give you a reward today."

Yan Ming smiled and shook his head. What the team leader said was right. These Japanese seemed cruel, but once they surrendered, they would be as obedient as kittens.

The Liao Wenting in front of us is a real Japanese.

"Team leader, I've finished the call. Liao Wenting didn't dare to play tricks."

After going back to detain Liao Wenting and instructing the interrogation department to give him a delicious meal, Yan Ming immediately came to Xu Qingyun to report.

"Jin Fang hasn't been discharged from the hospital yet. You take over his task these days and check out those two people as soon as possible."

Xu Qingyun nodded slightly. He understood that this situation would not confuse the Japanese for too long, and the remaining two observers must be found as soon as possible.
