The Spy

Chapter 176 Nanyang Chen Family
Bian Baojun ran quite fast, but it took him a long time to catch up with Ma Jiu and the others.

"You've been exposed. Leave the city immediately. Tell me what you want now. Quick."

The two have been exposed and it is not suitable for them to reconnect. Taking advantage of the chaos, they have a great chance to escape from the city now. Once the spies react and conduct a thorough search, it will be much more difficult for them to get out.

Since the spies have their eyes on them, they must know their current identities.

"who are you?"

Ma Jiu was very alert and did not immediately believe what Bian Baojun said.

"I'm the one who's going to reply to your letter, tell me quickly."

Bian Baojun didn't have time to talk nonsense with them. He looked around while asking, very vigilant.

"Okay, I believe you. We are guerrillas. We..."

"I understand. You must leave the city immediately. We will have other comrades contact you and send you support as soon as possible."

Bian Baojun finally understood why they came. He ignored the nonsense, wrote down their request, and asked them to leave immediately.

If he could get in touch with the leader normally, he would definitely treat the guerrilla comrades well, but unfortunately the conditions do not exist now.

"Take care of yourself."

Ma Jiu saluted, put away his gun, and left quickly with Song Guangfeng.

Their conditions were difficult, and the two pistols were important assets of the guerrillas, so they would never throw them away, so they would find a way to get them out of the city.

Bian Baojun did not leave immediately, but followed them from a distance. Only when he saw the two men quickly bought two baskets, picked up a bag of manure and successfully left the city did he feel at ease to leave.

In the Party Affairs Investigation Office, Tan Xianglin had a gloomy look on his face. He already knew what had happened in the park.

"Are there any casualties among us?"

Tan Xianglin asked again, with so many people fighting together, casualties are inevitable.

"I don't know. It seemed that Xiao Zhao was shot when I left. I don't know anything else." The subordinate shook his head.

"Have the injured been sent to the hospital?"

Tan Xianglin suppressed his anger and asked with a smile, "Damn Military Intelligence Department, why do they always go against them?"

He knew in his heart that the two sides had been at odds for a long time and that they were enemies in the same industry. Although they had been given a clear division of labor, they were all engaged in intelligence work and there was no possibility for them to be close to each other.

Besides, the higher-ups don't want to see them cooperate.

"I don't know." The subordinate shook his head again.

"Which part of the Military Intelligence Department took action?" Tan Xianglin asked again, and his subordinates still shook their heads.

Tan Xianglin was so angry that he wanted to draw his gun. Such a big thing happened, but his subordinates who ran back knew nothing about anything he asked.

If he wasn't the only one who came back and was of great use, Tan Xianglin really wanted to kill him.

"What else do you know?"

Tan Xianglin's smile was a little ferocious. His subordinate was stunned for a moment and quickly replied: "When the fight started, the team leader asked me to make a phone call. When I came back, I saw that they had arrested all our people."

The gunfight did not last long. After both sides discovered each other's identities, they quickly stopped. If the fighting had continued, the Party Affairs Investigation Office would definitely have been wiped out.

They are few in number and the other side is elite. In an open area, it won’t take much time to kill them all.

The Party Affairs Investigation Office sent people for support, and Xu Qingyun also asked for support.

"Get out."

Tan Xianglin cursed angrily and wanted to take him with him to report to the director, but with his condition, taking him along would only lead to him being scolded.

If the director can't find out anything, he won't blame a team member, but will only scold him as the section chief.

The team members left carefully, and Tan Xianglin began to organize his thoughts.

First they had a conflict with the Military Intelligence Department and fired guns, resulting in casualties.

The exact number is not yet clear.

Secondly, his people had been taken away by the Military Intelligence Department.

Zhuo An had been keeping an eye on the Red Party for several days. He knew about this case and dared not conceal it. The arrest of the Red Party was sabotaged by the Military Intelligence Department, which was most beneficial to them.

The Red Party is the old man's biggest worry. Now the Guo Party is making every effort to encircle and suppress them. In order to achieve the goal of eliminating the other party, the old man gave up everything else. The Military Intelligence Department is trying to disrupt them. This time, Dai will get into trouble.

After sorting out his thoughts, Tan Xianglin stood up.

This matter must be reported as soon as possible. How to file a complaint is not something he can decide. Besides, Zhuo An is still in the hands of the Military Intelligence Department. The sooner they are rescued, the less suffering they will suffer.

"What? The Military Intelligence Department deliberately let the Reds go and arrested your people?"

Old Ghost Xu asked in disbelief before he had even finished listening to his report.

The man named Dai is not on good terms with him, but is he so bold as to do this?
"Director, that's true. I'm trying to find out which part of the Military Intelligence Department did this."

In front of Xu Laogui, Tan Xianglin dared not hide anything and took the initiative to tell the truth.

He didn't dare to say that he knew nothing and deliberately said that he was investigating. This was indeed the case. He wanted to find out all the circumstances and had already sent people out to investigate the details.

"Find out all the details right away. I'm going to teach Dai a lesson."

Old Ghost Xu said viciously that he didn't care about the people who were arrested, he just wanted to embarrass Dai.

He had just been tricked by a man named Dai not long ago, so he just wanted to take revenge.

"Yes, Virgo."

Tan Xianglin breathed a sigh of relief. The trouble of unclear facts was finally solved by him.

The investigation was not difficult. With such a big incident and all parties mobilized, Tan Xianglin quickly found out the cause.

The group that came into conflict with them was Intelligence Group 4 of the Military Intelligence Department.

It was Intelligence Group 4 again. Tan Xianglin was stunned when he found out. The person who arrested Shi Qingbin last time was from Intelligence Group 4, and the new intelligence group leader Xu Qingyun.

As a result, he was severely scolded by the director.

The reason was found out. Intelligence Group 4 was training new members, and it happened to be in Xuanwu Park.

Tan Xianglin didn’t care whether it was a coincidence or not, and this was too much of a coincidence.

Nanjing is so big, why did the Military Intelligence Department choose this place?

And deliberately make trouble when they are taking action?

As for their people, it has been found that seven were shot and two died.

The death of their two brothers made the matter even more serious.

"Yes, I'll be there right away."

The director of the Military Intelligence Department stood up. The old man’s camp called and asked him to go over.

He knew the reason clearly, it was a conflict with the Party Affairs Investigation Office.

The director took his secretary Qi and went out immediately.

He didn't bring Xu Zhanjie, let alone Xu Qingyun. It was enough for him to handle this matter by himself.

When they arrived at the place, Xu Laogui was indeed standing by, along with his intelligence chief Tan Xianglin.

The old man had a bad look on his face, so the officer walked over and bowed respectfully.

"Why did you let the Reds run away today?"

The old man asked immediately. It was true that Old Ghost Xu exaggerated the situation. He was not surprised at this. He would do the same if he were in his place.

"Principal, who slandered us for letting the Red Party escape?"

The director asked calmly. The old man didn't say anything. Xu Laogui couldn't help but said, "We found two Red Party members. We had been following and monitoring them for a long time. We were going to close the net today. But they were set off by your people in Xuanwu Park and killed and injured several of us."

"Director Xu, your ability to confuse right and wrong is truly admirable. Let me ask you, did anyone know about your mission?"

The director asked softly. Xu Laogui frowned and said directly without waiting for him to speak: "We have been in special training there for more than one day. We have been there for three days. You went there later and said that we let the Red Party escape. It's really ridiculous."

He was telling the truth and was not afraid at all.

"Director Dai, I'm afraid you did this on purpose. According to our investigation, they sent out the signal for contact three days ago, and you made arrangements there three days in advance. This timing further proves that your people did this on purpose."

"According to what you said, no matter how many days in advance we go, we might be helping them, right?"

"You have had many opportunities to arrest people, and even to interrogate them to expand your gains. You have been under surveillance for so long but nothing has happened. I would say that you have ulterior motives and want to use the mission opportunities to achieve your unspeakable secrets."

Virgo smiled, he was also good at turning the tables.

"Principal, you may not know that the Japanese have issued a high reward in Shanghai for Xu Qingyun. Recently, many Qing Gang disciples have come from Shanghai. We have arrested two of them. They are indeed here to assassinate me."

"Reward order?"

The old man asked doubtfully. He was very busy and indeed had no idea about this matter.

The director immediately submitted all the prepared materials.

He has not reported all of his gains during this period. He has reported it many times before, so there is no need to report it so frequently. This time it came in handy unexpectedly.

The information not only includes the bounty that Japan had no choice but to issue against Xu Qingyun, but also the achievements he had made during this period.

Once again, he destroyed a complete Japanese spy concealed group, captured and killed the fourteen Japanese agents who came to assassinate him, and so on.

The old man watched very carefully. He didn't expect that Xu Qingyun had achieved so many results in such a short time.

Talent, absolute talent.

"Principal, Xu Qingyun's safety is very important. The Japanese want to get rid of him as soon as possible, but the training of new team members is extremely important. He will personally check on them every day regardless of his own safety. We protect him strictly and let him bring many people with him every time he goes out."

Virgo was very smart and didn't mention the reward again, but emphasized that he brought a lot of people with him, which just explained why there were so many people at the scene.

The old man just saw the reward amount. Fifty gold bars is a lot, enough for many people to take risks and want to get the money.

The old man had lived in Shanghai, and although he was not that powerful in the early days, he understood what this money meant to those gangsters and bandits.

Xu Laogui glanced at Tan Xianglin, who understood and immediately said, "If Xu Qingyun is a member of the Red Party, he knew about this meeting in advance and deliberately arranged this for protection?"

The Party Affairs Investigation Office has always used the method of associating you with the Red Party, no matter who you are.

As long as you are associated with the Red Party, it is like throwing a bucket of shit on you.

It has to stink even if it doesn't stink.

This tactic has worked for them time and time again, and in the early days they even used it to get rid of many people who disliked them.

Everyone was in danger because of the killing, and no one dared to discuss the spies openly.

Virgo had long thought that they would use this trick, and it turned out to be true.

The old man looked at him again.

It has to be said that the Party Affairs Investigation Office had a very accurate grasp of the old man's psychology. Even the fight against the Japanese was slowed down, which shows the importance of the Red Party in his heart.

"Xu Qingyun cannot be a member of the Red Party. Moreover, the location of this training was not arranged by Xu Qingyun, but was temporarily arranged by his deputy team leader. Xu Qingyun has been under strict protection during this period. There are not only his people around him, but also many people from our Operations Department."

The director smiled. He was waiting for the Party Affairs Investigation Office to ask this question.

Last time they came to investigate Xu Qingyun, wanting to see if he had any connection with the Red Party, but unfortunately they found the wrong person.

"You are so sure that he is not. If he is, the harm will be extremely great. Can you bear the responsibility?"

Old Ghost Xu lost his temper and took the initiative to say that they had already discussed it before coming. Since they were in the right this time, they would punish Xu Qingyun to death to avenge Shi Qingbin's arrest last time.

Shi Qingbin was in cahoots with Japan, and Xu Laogui was severely warned, which was a disgrace to the adults.

"Director Xu, you said Xu Qingyun is a member of the Red Party. If he is not, can you bear the responsibility?"

Chu Zuo laughed even more happily. Old Ghost Xu had not conducted a detailed investigation on Xu Qingyun.

The person who went to investigate last time has been eliminated by them.

Old Ghost Xu is greedy for power, only knows how to bully people, and has average business skills, which just gave him an opportunity.

"What do you mean?"

Xu Laogui was puzzled. Whether Xu Qingyun was a member of the Red Party or not had nothing to do with him. Why should he be held responsible? He was a member of the Red Party, so he had the responsibility to arrest people and eliminate hidden dangers. He was not a member of the Red Party. He just suspected the wrong person.

This is what the Party Affairs Investigation Office does, suspecting everyone who might be involved.

"It's nothing, Director Xu. I advise you to ask Mr. Chen first before you try to frame Xu Qingyun."

The director smiled and said, and Xu Laogui was even more surprised: "Which Mr. Chen?"

"Mr. Chen from Nanyang."

"Tell me clearly, what is the relationship between Xu Qingyun and Mr. Chen?"

The old man couldn't help asking, and when he mentioned Mr. Chen, he guessed who it was. There was only that one person who was brought to Nanyang.

"Principal, Mr. Xu saved Mr. Chen's life. The Xu family and the Chen family are not ordinary. In addition, Mr. Xu's sons and nephews all sacrificed their lives for the Party."

The director lowered his head and spoke slowly.

The Xu family is not an ordinary family. Several of their ancestors sacrificed their lives, and they have good relations with many bigwigs, including the person behind Old Ghost Xu.

Er Chen's uncle, although dead, had a good relationship with the Xu family before.

After knowing that Xu Qingyun was from the Xu family, the director paid attention to this point. Although the ancestors of the Xu family are no longer with us, their relationships and favors have not disappeared.

Besides, the Xu family is wealthy and powerful, they are not an ordinary family.

"I understand, Yunong, tell me the details."

The old man said lightly, Xu Qingyun is also related to Mr. Chen from Nanyang?
Mr. Chen is not an ordinary person. Although he is not in the country, he has a great influence. He helped them a lot in the early days. Most people have benefited from Mr. Chen.

He would verify this, but would not ask about it here.

The director lowered his head and told the story again. In his words, they were undergoing special training to turn these students into elites who could cope with various battlefields. During the training, the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Office suddenly pulled out their guns and opened fire.

He described the performance of the Party Affairs Investigation Office as worthless, and they were scared by a few strings of firecrackers.

The Japanese were offering a reward, and Xu Qingyun was near the scene. The people around him immediately opened fire in retaliation. If they hadn't recognized Zhuo An, none of the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Office would have escaped.

They have shown mercy.

Based on what Xu Laogui said before, the old man understood what was going on.

Simply put, it was a misunderstanding. The two parties met each other and didn't know each other was there. It would be strange if there was no conflict once there was movement.

This time, the Military Intelligence Department did not say that the Party Affairs Investigation Department wanted to assassinate Xu Qingyun for the bounty, and explained the situation truthfully, which made the old man very satisfied.

But it was Old Ghost Xu who came up and said that Xu Qingyun was a member of the Red Party and deliberately let the Red Party escape. The old man was a little annoyed.

People who have a relationship with Mr. Chen cannot throw dirty water on him casually.

"Since this is a misunderstanding, you are not allowed to pursue this matter any further. Let the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Office go. Yunong will stay, and you can go back."

The old man finally said this, which concluded the matter.

"Yes, commission."

Old Ghost Xu was unwilling but helpless, so he could only leave in disgrace with Tan Xianglin.

"Is Xu Qingyun from the Xu family in Haifeng?" The old man asked as soon as Xu Laogui left. When he mentioned Mr. Chen just now, he had already guessed Xu Qingyun's background.

"The principal is wise. Xu Qingyun is indeed from the Xu family of Haifeng. Now the Xu family is small, with only him and his cousin left. Both of them are direct descendants of the Xu family."

Chu Zuo lowered his head and replied that there was a huge difference between the direct line and the collateral line. If they were the direct line, it meant that all the resources of the Xu family were on them.

"What is the current situation of the Xu family?"

"It's much worse than before. Now the older generation only has Xu Qingyun's father and uncle. Three of the five heroes of the Xu family sacrificed their lives for the country."

"A family full of loyal heroes."

The old man nodded involuntarily. There were many people like the Xu family, but not too many. After all, there were only one or two truly wealthy families in one place.

How many people are truly willing to sacrifice themselves for the Party?
Xu Qingyun comes from the Xu family, so he is naturally trustworthy. He knows Yunong, and if he is not absolutely sure, Yunong will not guarantee Xu Qingyun in this way.

"You should go back too."

The old man said softly, the director bowed deeply and left quickly.

By the time he got home, it was dark.

As for the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Office, he has already called to inform them to release them.

"Go pick them up."

As soon as Xu Laogui returned home, he answered a phone call, rubbed his head, and gave instructions to Tan Xianglin.

The Military Intelligence Department agreed to release the person and let them go and pick him up themselves.

"Yes, Virgo."

Tan Xianglin lowered his head and did not dare to speak nonsense. Today, the man surnamed Dai suddenly brought out Mr. Chen, causing them to fail to frame him. At this time, he already knew who Mr. Chen was. He did not expect that Xu Qingyun had such a relationship. It seems that he needs to be more cautious when dealing with him in the future.

"Spread the word that there are Japanese undercover agents in the Military Intelligence Department."

Old Ghost Xu suddenly said, this Dai guy is abominable, since he can't do anything to him this time, he will disgust him somewhere else.

The Japanese have been undercover in the Military Intelligence Department for several years, and he will definitely not report this matter. Old Ghost Xu did not go to complain himself, and the person has been arrested. There is not much point in complaining, so just tell him about it and let the old man know it himself.

Everyone will know in the future that the Military Intelligence Department was successfully hidden by the Japanese for such a long time.

"Yes."

Tan Xianglin breathed a sigh of relief, he was glad that the director did not pursue him. He was not aware of Xu Qingyun's background and rashly targeted him. It was indeed his mistake this time.

He can find excuses, but something happened before and he didn't investigate, so it's his responsibility.

It's not that he didn't think about it, but mainly because there were too many things going on during this period, and because Shi Qingbin's surrender to Japan put him in a passive position, he didn't have time to do these things.

At the entrance of the Military Intelligence Department, Tan Xianglin and his men were sitting in the car. He was there to pick them up.

The military intelligence personnel at the hospital had already withdrawn, and Tan Xianglin's personnel took in their wounded.

What made Tan Xianglin angry was that the Military Intelligence Department did not give a penny for medical expenses, and the money had to be paid by their Party Affairs Investigation Department.

The Military Intelligence Department killed and injured their people, but didn't even pay for their medical expenses. It's really despicable.

"Section Chief."

Not long after, Zhuo An brought his men out. The Military Intelligence Department could release him, but would not send him over.

No one has the courage to do that. If you give it away today, you’ll be finished tomorrow.

Virgo will not forgive those who betray their own people.

"Tell me in the car."

Tan Xianglin's expression didn't change much. Zhuo An breathed a sigh of relief. It was enough that the section chief didn't laugh.

The section chief's nickname is Smiling Tiger. The harder he laughs, the more unlucky he becomes.

"What's going on? Tell me clearly."

As soon as the car started, Tan Xianglin asked, Zhuo An knew best because he was the person involved.

"Chief, the people in the Military Intelligence Department are so abominable..."

What Zhuo An said was basically the same as what Tan Xianglin knew. The people from the Military Intelligence Department were undergoing special training inside and deliberately set off firecrackers to scare their own team members, which ended up alarming them.

They were forced into action, only to be attacked by Military Intelligence as soon as they opened fire.

The Red Party they were targeting escaped, and they failed to catch the person who was in contact with the Red Party.

"Chief, how are they?"

After saying that, Zhuo An immediately asked, he was asking about his subordinates.

"Two died."

Tan Xianglin said lightly, Zhuo An's heart tightened, two people died?
He wanted to start a good fire, but now the fire has burned himself.

With two people dead, their hatred for the Military Intelligence Department will become even greater.

"Chief, have you blocked the city gates?" Zhuo An asked through gritted teeth. He put aside his grudge with the people from the Military Intelligence Department for the time being, as his mission was more important.

"It can't be sealed. I sent people to the city gate to ask, but no one has seen them."

Tan Xianglin shook his head. Nanjing was the capital, and it was not easy to seal off the city. Besides, he didn't know the details before, and he had to go and file a complaint with Xu Laogui, so he didn't have time.

"Chief, I will take people to look for them right away. We will definitely find them."

Zhuo An did not give up. It was impossible for the two of them to go back to their residence, but they had no money. If they wanted to live, they had to go out to work.

The Red Party is different from others. They will never harm the people. They rely on themselves for everything.

"Let's look for it tomorrow. Go back and rest today."

Tan Xianglin did not refuse, but he knew very well that the possibility of finding them was very low. The two men belonged to the guerrillas, and after they were exposed, it was impossible for them to stay in the city.

But he would not discourage Zhuoan's enthusiasm.

"Thank you, section chief."

Zhuo An took the initiative to thank them. He understood that the section chief and the director must have made great efforts for him to be able to get out.

The Military Intelligence Department arrested them, so it’s not going to be that easy to let them go.

The next morning, the aide-de-camp hurried to the old man with a telegram.

The old man is having breakfast.

The telegram was sent from Singapore, and he asked someone to send a telegram to Mr. Chen yesterday.

The content of the call back was simple, and the old man put it aside after reading it.

Mr. Chen replied very politely, saying that the Xu family was an old friend of his and that they had saved his life, and he hoped that any minor mistakes made by the younger generation of the Xu family would be spared for his sake.

The old man didn't say too much yesterday, he just wanted to see Mr. Chen's attitude.

This call back shows the relationship between Mr. Chen and the Xu family.

Mr. Chen thought something had happened to Xu Qingyun and pleaded directly, proving that Mr. Chen did have a special relationship with the Xu family.

In the morning, Minister Liang came to Bian Baojun's home.

He checked the surroundings carefully, made sure there was no danger, and quickly walked over to knock on the door.

Two light knocks and two heavy knocks, that was the rhythm of his knocking on the door.

"Minister Liang."

Bian Baojun knew that Minister Liang would come today, so he kept waiting.

Such a big thing happened yesterday, and it was already afternoon when Minister Liang returned home. He did not dare to go out. He knew very well that although his comrades had left yesterday, the next test for them had just begun.

He didn't know who helped them, but Minister Liang was more inclined to believe that it was an internal problem of the Guo Party.

He was unable to investigate the matter, so he reported it to Secretary Huang and asked him to help find out the truth.

As for him, even Bian Baojun is now facing danger.

They went to the park.

Based on Minister Liang's understanding of the nature of the Party Affairs Investigation Office, once they come to their senses, they will definitely investigate the comrades who escaped and all the people who went to the scene.

Now it depends on whether they can find me.

If nothing is found, it would be fine. But if it is found, both he and Bian Baojun will probably face scrutiny and testing.

Fortunately, there is no problem with their identity.

"Did you find the two comrades yesterday?"

After coming in, Minister Liang immediately asked, he himself was facing danger, but he was worried about the comrade who escaped yesterday.

Fortunately, this was not a tragedy. If he had seen his comrades sacrifice in front of him again and again, it would have been the greatest torture for him.

"Found them. They are comrades from the Anhui Province guerrillas. There is no way to stop them from coming to Nanjing this time..."

Bian Baojun quickly expressed the needs of his comrades. They knew that life in the guerrillas was hard, but they did not expect it to be this hard now.

Lack of ammunition is just one of them.

They didn't even have enough clothes.

Without clothes, I wonder how they survived last winter.

They were short of medicines, school supplies, including pens and paper, and all other necessities of life.

"I will report this matter and find a way to support them. You must be careful recently. If the Party Affairs Investigation Office finds you, you must have a very suitable reason to explain why you appeared in the park."

"I have a reason. The newspaper doesn't have enough reporters. Yesterday I went to collect materials and came back to write an article. The editor-in-chief of the newspaper has assigned me to do so. What will you do?"

Bian Baojun nodded. He had taken precautions before setting off and reserved excuses for himself.

"I have it too, don't worry."

Lao Liang did prepare a reason, but his reason was a bit complicated and not as convincing as Bian Baojun's.

He came here yesterday to see an old customer for a follow-up visit. When he was leaving, he happened to pass by Xuanwu Park and came in to take a look.

Compared with Bian Baojun's, his reasons are indeed not as rigorous.

Once discovered, he would most likely face interrogation by secret agents.

“You must be careful.”

Bian Baojun didn’t know Lao Liang’s occupation. Lao Liang was the online one and he was the offline one. Now only Lao Liang could contact him. If he wanted to see Lao Liang, he had to send a signal.

"I'll set up a signal for you. It will change a little bit every day. On your way to work every day, you pay attention. If the signal doesn't change one day, you leave immediately. Do you understand?"

Lao Liang suddenly said that he had confidence in himself, but he had had contact with his comrades, and if the spies caught him, Bian Baojun would also be in danger.

Especially since he had also been to the park.

Bian Baojun was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Minister Liang, are you in danger? If you are, I suggest you evacuate immediately."

He is not stupid. Lao Liang said this suddenly, which must mean that he is in much greater danger than himself.

Otherwise it would not be explained in this way.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Lao Liang smiled and shook his head. He had just come to Nanjing to work and how could he just leave?

Besides, his job is very important and it would be troublesome to replace him. He would not leave Nanjing unless it is absolutely necessary.

The situation is unclear at the moment, and it is not in his character to evacuate without knowing anything.

Everything will have to wait until Secretary Huang has conducted a thorough investigation.

"Have you reported this matter?"

Bian Baojun asked again. He realized that he couldn't persuade Lao Liang, so he asked his superiors.

"I've reported it, it's okay."

Lao Liang did report it. He would not take security issues lightly. He would wait patiently until orders came from above.

In addition to Bian Baojun, another comrade made the same arrangement.

He can work harder every day, but he cannot put his comrades in danger. When he goes out these days, he must be more careful and must take anti-tracking actions, at least twice.

In the afternoon, Zhuo An dragged his tired body back to the Party Affairs Investigation Office.

This time his entire team went out to search the entire city for Ma Jiu and the other man. Unfortunately, they did not find anything in the places where they might be.

Including cart shops, places where coolies worked, and some abandoned places.

Zhuo An understood that the two men had most likely left the city and that the guards at the city gate had deceived the section chief.

He knew very well what the city gate guards were like. They were good at making money but didn't care about people at all.

Besides, what they say will not benefit them in any way, so they will never tell the truth.

"Chief, I suspect there are Red Party members lurking in the Military Intelligence Department. Their appearance this time is just too coincidental."

Arriving at Tan Xianglin's office, Zhuo An gritted his teeth and said that such a good opportunity to make a contribution was ruined by the Military Intelligence Department, and he was now filled with hatred.

He wanted revenge, revenge against the Military Intelligence Department.

"Any suspects?"

"Yes, it's their intelligence team leader, Xu Qingyun."

Zhuo An immediately replied that he had no memory at all. His predecessor Shi Qingbin suspected Xu Qingyun, and that person was already dead, but he still dared to do this.

"We can't check him."

Tan Xianglin shook his head. If they hadn't complained to the old man, there would be nothing wrong in investigating Xu Qingyun. But since it had been mentioned and the old man didn't agree, Xu Qingyun couldn't investigate again.

Unless they have evidence.

Otherwise, once discovered, Zhuo An would be doomed.

"Why?" Zhuo An was slightly stunned.

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Xu Qingyun can't investigate. Go check all the people who went to the park that day. Since they are the contact person, maybe the contact person has already gone. The guerrillas can leave, but the person who contacted him will not evacuate."

Tan Xianglin did not explain the reason. Since the matter involved his old man, he could not talk about it casually to outsiders.

"Chief, there were a lot of people there yesterday."

Zhuo An was stunned for a moment. He was at the scene and knew how many people were in the park. Xuanwu Park is not small and is next to Xuanwu Lake. The weather was good yesterday and many people went there for an outing. There were only a few hundred people at the scene.

"You have to check more, go ahead."

Tan Xianglin glared at him, and Zhuo An had no choice but to accept the order and leave.
