The Spy

Chapter 158 Traitor Connection
The Japanese are considering whether it is worth the price, or trying to get it to lower the price.

"Yes, he flirted with all the women."

Yan Ming replied happily that he knew what was going on. Shi Qingbin was investigating their team leader, and the team leader found out and decided to strike first and get rid of Shi Qingbin.

The previous plan was to frame someone, but it is different now. The other party really has connections with the Japanese and agreed to the Japanese demands. He is a traitor and it is only right to arrest him.

"Go ahead and interrogate them and find out about the Japanese who have contacted them."

Xu Qingyun ordered that not only would he deal with Shi Qingbin, even if this incident had not happened, if he discovered the existence of Japanese spies, Xu Qingyun would still investigate it to the end.

"Yes."

Yan Ming happily accepted the order, and Xu Qingyun returned to the interrogation room. The interrogation continued, and Shi Qingbin kept screaming.

Xu Qingyun didn't say anything. The traitors were not that hard-headed. No matter what they thought at first, they would confess in the end.

Without exception.

"I said, stop."

When the branding iron was pressed on him, Shi Qingbin finally couldn't bear it anymore and was willing to confess.

At this time, his woman had already sold him out.

The person who contacted them was a woman, Shi Qingbin's classmate in Shanghai, but she was not an agent, just a middleman.

Shi Qingbin is a good name for a woman, very pleasant to the ear.

Paeonia lactiflora.

It's a pity to ruin such a good name.

Bai Shao is a Chinese student, but he had been turned by the Japanese in Shanghai. Bai Shao had been to Shanghai and had dinner with his classmates.

She studied in Shanghai and liked the place very much. Although she was Shi Qingbin's mistress, she always liked to go to Shanghai whenever she had time.

Shi Qingbin is rich and can afford to support him.

There is nothing to gain from arresting the Red Party members, but they not only arrest the Red Party members, but also all the people in the Fruit Party who have connections with the Red Party. They can arrest people as long as there is some evidence.

It’s been better in recent years, but it was even crazier in the past few years.

If we say you are red, you can be shot directly.

At that time, the Party Affairs Investigation Office was extremely powerful and cast a shadow on many people.

They had already made a lot of money before.

Another point is that the Party Affairs Investigation Department was even more arrogant than the Military Intelligence Department. They were Er Chen's people. Although Er Chen followed the old man, his own strength was not weak.

The reason for setting up the Military Intelligence Department is also for the purpose of checks and balances.

Shi Qingbin is very nice to Bai Shao and is willing to spend money on her.

Bai Shao was a woman who liked to show off. She mentioned Shi Qingbin many times in Shanghai and attracted the attention of the Shanghai Special High Section.

The Shanghai Special High Section had been targeting Shi Qingbin years ago. They first instigated Bai Shao to defect, then asked Bai Shao to contact them, and finally the Japanese personally came forward to meet with Shi Qingbin to negotiate.

The whole process is not complicated, or rather very simple.

One wanted to plant an important spy in the Party Affairs Investigation Office, and the other did it purely for money.

The spies in the Party Affairs Investigation Office have no faith, all they care about is money.

Shi Qingbin confessed, but he didn't describe it in as much detail as his woman.

He avoided the main point and admitted that the Japanese wanted to subvert him, but he did not agree. He wanted to use this opportunity to catch the Japanese spies who subverted him.

What he says is better than what he sings.

No one will believe it.

"Team leader, Bai Shao's classmates are still in Nanjing. Should we arrest them first?"

After returning to the office, Yan Ming immediately asked, before inciting Shi Qingbin to defect, Bai Shao had been cooperating, and she was a traitor, which has been confirmed.

"No rush. Keep an eye on her first, find a way to install a bug, and find out all her recent actions."

Xu Qingyun shook his head. Bai Shao was not the point. The key was the Japanese who showed up.

He is the real Japanese spy.

It is impossible to confirm now whether Bai Shao knows where the Japanese are hiding. Based on Xu Qingyun's understanding of Japanese spies, it is highly likely that he does not know where the Japanese spies live.

Unless the two have a special relationship.

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."

Investigating the Japanese spies is crucial. Fortunately, they are arresting Shi Qingbin secretly, and the Japanese will not know about it now, but the time left for them is also limited.

Once the Japanese discovered that Shi Qingbin was in trouble, they would flee immediately.

Yan Ming can’t expect to sleep well today, or even not be able to sleep at all.

When Xu Qingyun returned home, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. A lot of things happened today. At least two Japanese spies showed up, one of whom came to assassinate him and instigated Yao Chang to rebel.

The other was a Japanese spy who instigated Shi Qingbin to defect.

These two cannot be the same person.

The person who assassinated him must have just arrived. Yao Chang had already explained this before. The Japanese spy himself said that he had a good impression of Nanjing. Although he had just arrived, he liked this beautiful and ancient city very much.

There was no need for the Japanese spy to deliberately deceive Yao Chang.

The Japanese spy who instigated Shi Qingbin to defect had been there for a long time and had contact with Shi Qingbin more than a month ago.

Nothing is absolute, so Xu Qingyun temporarily lists the two things as two cases.

If there is evidence proving that the two Japanese spies are the same person, such as footprints, they can be handled together.

These are two cases, plus the Japanese spy observers who have been found and the Japanese spy observers who are being investigated, which is equivalent to four cases. This does not include the traitor case investigated by Miao Feng and the review of the security department that Xu Zhanjie has just started.

Xu Qingyun has been very busy recently.

Since coming to Nanjing, Xu Qingyun seems to have never had a good rest for a day and is busy almost every day.

In the morning, as soon as Xu Qingyun arrived at the office, Miao Feng walked in.

"Section Chief Miao."

Xu Qingyun stood up immediately. He was not surprised that Miao Feng came over. There was a traitor yesterday, so he must have come to ask about this matter.

"Qingyun, I know what happened yesterday. I'm glad you're okay. I want to ask you, could Yao Chang be related to another traitor?"

As expected, Miao Feng came here because of what happened yesterday. He first went to see Xu Zhanjie today to ask about what happened yesterday, and then came to find Xu Qingyun.

"Chief Miao, I know what you are thinking. They are likely related, but they are not directly connected."

Xu Qingyun shook his head slightly. Miao Feng was still staring at Xin Shaowu and checked all about Xin Shaowu, including his wife and family business.

No abnormalities have been found so far. Xin Shaowu’s wife’s business is normal and the money can be traced.

There must be something fishy going on here, but it wasn't someone else giving it to them, but they giving it to others.

Doing business requires management, and Xin Shaowu's family is no exception, with additional expenses that are not obvious.

What Miao Feng wanted to check was not the expenditure, but the income.

As for who they gave the money to and how much they gave, Miao Feng only recorded it and did not investigate. If he really investigated, he would find that there were not many clean people in the Guo Party and they would be caught in large numbers.

"Qingyun, tell me in detail."

Miao Feng sat up straight. He also understood that the two traitors could not have direct contact, otherwise exposing one would be equivalent to exposing two.

Yao Chang was not the traitor he was looking for. He had just been turned against the government. The one he was looking for had always been in the department.

"The Japanese spy has just arrived, so he doesn't know much about our military intelligence department. If he wants to find a target for subversion, he must be told by someone who knows the situation, and then choose the right target for subversion. Chief Miao, do you know the situation of everyone in our department and his family?"

Xu Qingyun asked with a smile. Miao Feng was slightly startled and immediately shook his head.

Not to mention the entire department, even in their intelligence department, Miao Feng only knew everyone's name and didn't know most people's family situations.

"So the traitor you are investigating must know a lot about the personal situations of the department, or just happen to know the situation of Yao Chang."

"I understand. Their connection lies in knowledge. As long as Xin Shaowu knows about Yao Chang's situation, he may tell the Japanese spies about it and let them incite rebellion."

Preconceived ideas are indeed terrible. Miao Feng still believes that Xin Shaowu is the traitor.

However, they had no evidence and were afraid that Xin Shaowu was not the traitor. If they arrested him, they would alert the real traitor and let him escape.

"You should check Xin Shaowu first, but it's best to check all the people who know about it."

Xu Qingyun did not refute him. Miao Feng was determined to catch the traitor. He finally found a suspect and he desperately hoped that this person was the traitor he was looking for.

Xu Qingyun could understand this. Miao Feng was his superior, so he would not order him to do anything. He could just guide him from the side.

"Okay, I'll check it now."

Miao Feng originally came to Xu Qingyun to discuss the follow-up situation. The suggestions put forward by Xu Qingyun were also within his consideration, but he considered more.

A nice hotel in Nanjing, Yan Ming has set up a surveillance point.

Bai Shao’s classmate is Huo Changling, who is one year younger than Bai Shao. She is not as pretty as Bai Shao, but has a better figure.

She likes to wear cheongsam, which shows her figure better.

Huo Changling has been living in the hotel for more than two months. Yan Ming personally went to the people in the hotel to ask about the situation. During this period, not many people have looked for Huo Changling, except Bai Shao.

The same woman came here several times.

According to Bai Shao's confession, the Japanese who instigated them to rebel was a man. It seems that the Japanese spy never came to the hotel, or he came secretly.

The room that Huo Changling lives in is not cheap. It costs hundreds of dollars to stay there for more than two months. The Japanese are willing to invest. If Shi Qingbin offered a lower price, they would probably have agreed long ago.

Fifty gold bars, this price is indeed very high.

Shi Qingbin really dared to make an offer.

"Captain, we found out that the person who came to see Huo Changling was another classmate of theirs in Shanghai."

In the afternoon, Yan Ming found out the other person who appeared in the hotel and went back to interrogate Bai Shao immediately.

According to Bai Shao's account, the three of them had a very good relationship. She and another person came to Nanjing, while Huo Changling stayed in Shanghai.

This person should have nothing to do with the Japanese spy.

Yan Ming still sent two people to keep an eye on her. Yan Ming would not let go of anyone involved in the Japanese spy case.

"Ring ring ring."

The phone in Huo Changling's room suddenly rang, and the person in the surveillance point was holding a telescope, watching everything in the room.

The curtains were open. Huo Changling liked to open the curtains during the day.

The surveillance personnel saw Huo Changling walk to the phone and answer the call.

After hanging up the phone, she started to pack herself up and soon went out with a bag.

"Report to the captain immediately and follow her."

Whenever Huo Changling went out, no matter what she did, they would keep an eye on her. She was a confirmed traitor and must be kept under close watch.

"I'll go back right away."

Yan Ming was in the office and stood up immediately after receiving the report. At this time, outside a shopping mall, little Guan De was sitting outside the mall polishing his leather shoes.
