The Spy

Chapter 202: Guidance

"so many?"

Xu Qingyun's eyebrows jumped. He didn't expect that there were four suspects in the first department. There were only twenty-seven people in total. This ratio was very high.

There are so many people in the Transportation Bureau, but we only found three at the beginning.

"They all had various unexplained circumstances, so we classified them as suspects."

Dai Jieying replied in a low voice. He understood what the team leader was worried about. Section 1 was not the Transportation Bureau. The people inside were either rich or noble, so they had to be careful when investigating them.

That's why they're slow in investigating.

They can question the Transportation Bureau one by one, but not the Sub-Department. Even if they get permission and go in to question, the people inside will not really cooperate, or even ignore them.

Other departments may not dare to do this to them, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not one of them.

"Continue the investigation and put all suspects under surveillance."

Xu Qingyun nodded slowly. They had the old man's permission to investigate Yayi Ke, so they were not afraid.

Just avoid troubles that can be avoided.

"Yes, team leader."

Dai Jieying took the order and left. As soon as he went out, Yan Ming walked in.

"Team leader, the little girl performed well."

Yan Ming asked with a smile. He had been in Anhui Province for a while and was bored to death. Now he was finally back.

He did a good job this time and the director praised him twice. Without his cooperation, the Party Affairs Investigation Office would not have been fooled. Until now, the Party Affairs Investigation Office did not know that this was a trap.

But they knew that Yan Ming had returned.

It was announced to the outside world that the Red Party had not been found.

Tan Xianglin was still in the hospital, and his subordinates went to the hospital to report to him.

Yan Ming's return at this time did make Tan Xianglin a little suspicious, but only a little.

The Military Intelligence Department had been in Anhui Province for quite some time, but they hadn't been able to find anyone after investigating for a long time, so they came back and said it was normal. It was impossible for them to have been investigating the Red Party there all along.

The Military Intelligence Department also suffered heavy losses in the hospital chaos.

It is said that they targeted a Japanese spy team leader, but he was intercepted by his men and the spy escaped. They had hoped to capture a complete Japanese spy team, but in the end they only caught one person.

The Military Intelligence Department paid more attention to the Japanese. They were very angry this time, and the man surnamed Dai is still involved in a verbal lawsuit with their director.

Besides, the Military Intelligence Department must know that I lost the person this time. Maybe they have guessed something.

Tan Xianglin didn't think much about Yan Ming's return.

"Chief, Heilang and Wu Qi have had conflicts for a long time. Xu Qingshi doesn't like Wu Qi, and Heilang is closer to him. The two of them are doing business together, but we found out that before Wu Qi attacked Heilang, someone warned Wu Qi that Heilang had a special relationship with Xu Qingshi and that they were going to attack him."

Zhuo An was reporting in the hospital that the spies of the Party Affairs Investigation Office were not useless, at least they were performing much better now than during the Anti-Japanese War.

"Who warned Wu Qi?"

Tan Xianglin immediately asked, there is a big problem with this warning, it seems that someone wants them to fight.

"It's unclear at the moment. The person who gave the warning didn't show up, so we asked a kid who sells cigarettes to help pass on the message."

Zhuo An shook his head. Tan Xianglin was lying on the bed with a cold look in his eyes. This behavior was a typical Red Party style.

"What about the letter?"

"It's in Wu Qi's hands. Wu Qi has been taken away by the Military Intelligence Department. His home was searched by the Military Intelligence Department and we were unable to find him."

Zhuo An shook his head again. If there was a letter, at least there would be handwriting left, which could be considered a clue. If the letter was gone, this clue would naturally disappear.

Regardless of whether the letter was in the hands of the Military Intelligence Department, they would not acknowledge it, let alone hand it over to them.

"hateful."

Tan Xianglin said angrily, but his mind worked quickly. It was obvious that the Red Party deliberately provoked a fight between Wu Qi and Heilang in order to create chaos in the hospital.

He didn't know it before, but now that it has happened, it is much easier to calculate.

If a major battle breaks out between these two groups of people, both sides will suffer heavy losses, and someone will definitely be injured and need to be hospitalized.

Jinling Hospital is close to them and is the largest hospital, so there is a high possibility that they will choose Jinling Hospital.

He could even imagine what the Red Party would do next, that they would continue to sow discord among them in the hospital, and then coordinate with the explosion to scare him out.

This was definitely done by the Red Party, because they have already found out that the explosion was caused by black gunpowder and no one was hurt at all.

But he was fooled.

"Where is the police station?" Tan Xianglin asked again.

"Xu Qingshi was held down by the General Administration and was not allowed to help Heilang. The next day, Xu Qingshi sent a lot of people to the hospital, but during the chaos, the police were afraid of death and didn't dare to get close."

Zhuo An said again that these can be found very easily.

“The police should be damned.”

Tan Xianglin cursed again, saying that if the police had done something and rushed in to stop their recklessness, he would not have left the hospital.

If he hadn't left, Nie Fenglin would never have been rescued.

The Red Party had few members, but they were numerous inside the hospital, including police and even people from the Military Intelligence Department.

Even if they stood aside and watched, they would not conflict with his people and let him leave with only a few people.

Zhuo An asked carefully: "Section Chief, Xu Qingshi from the east city is the cousin of Xu Qingyun from the Military Intelligence Department. Should we do something against him?"

"Need not."

Tan Xianglin shook his head. He did not suspect Xu Qingshi in this incident. Xu Qingshi's response was correct and he deployed two police teams in the hospital.

Moreover, the person who gave the warning took advantage of him, causing a conflict between him and Wu Qi, and it is very likely that Wu Qi would target him.

The most important point is that he learned from the Director that the Xu family has unusual connections.

He is the descendant of a great army and has someone behind him.

"But the Red Party knows about his relationship with Black Wolf. There may be an undercover Red Party agent in the police station. Check the police in the east of the city."

"There is also the investigation into Nie Fenglin. We must not let our guard down when leaving the city. Also, ask more questions about the person who set off the explosion in the hospital and find him."

Tan Xianglin issued consecutive orders, and his current focus of investigation is still Nie Fenglin and the Red Party that rescued Nie Fenglin this time.

"Yes, Chief, I'll check it out right away."

Zhuo An felt bitter, as there were so many things to do, and his team alone was not enough.

"Tell everyone in the department to cooperate with you."

Tan Xianglin suddenly said this, and Zhuo An felt relieved. It seemed that the section chief also understood that these things could not be accomplished by his team alone.

"Thank you, Chief."

Zhuo An took his leave and said that Tan Xianglin had recovered well, but he did not plan to be discharged from the hospital so early.

Because of the hospital incident, the director was scolded by the chairman, especially because they lost that important Red Party member and failed to get the information that the chairman wanted most.

The director has been in a bad mood these days. At least wait until he calms down before going back.

Li Yuanjie was walking on the street with a frown on his face.

Xu Qingyun gave them quite a few photos. He printed several copies of the photos and mobilized the gangsters and street police to interrogate them. Originally, he wanted to follow the custom of the four groups and give a dollar to anyone who looked like the person.

But he soon discovered that this didn't work.

There were too many people, and many of them looked like him. He gave out more than fifty dollars in just one day and immediately stopped.

One dollar per person was no longer enough, so he changed it to one dollar per three people.

Otherwise, his wallet will not be able to bear it. It's only been one day, and it will be even longer in the future. Who knows how much money he will give out.

"Captain, there are too many people to investigate. We can't check them all."

The subordinates came to complain to Li Yuanjie that there were more than fifty people to be investigated every day. How many people did they have?

Li Yuanjie frowned. This was not going to work. He had thought the problem was too simple and didn't expect that when he did it, the result would be like this.

"Take your time to check, don't rush."

Li Yuanjie couldn't give up halfway. If he gave up now, it would not only damage his prestige.

It will also make the team leader think that he lacks perseverance and is half-hearted, and it will leave a bad impression on the section chief.

Li Yuanjie's mind was a little confused, but fortunately he had one advantage: he knew to ask for advice and learn.

After arranging his subordinates, he immediately returned to the office and asked to see Xu Qingyun.

In the Military Intelligence Department, Xu Qingyun is recognized as the best case handler, so it would be right to ask him.

If he can't get any good ideas here, he can give up then, so that the people above won't have any opinions about him.

"Group Leader Xu."

Li Yuanjie stood in front of Xu Qingyun, very respectful.

"I heard you were out there investigating Japanese spies. That's great."

Xu Qingyun had met Li Yuanjie before. They had worked together when Group 2 cooperated before. He had an impression of Li Yuanjie and believed that he was a serious person.

"Yes, but I'm in some trouble now..."

Li Yuanjie took the initiative to explain the current situation. After listening to him, Xu Qingyun laughed: "You, the authorities are confused."

"Team Leader Xu, what do you mean?" Li Yuanjie was slightly surprised.

"They are not the sleeper agents from before. The possibility of finding them in Nanjing is very low. But it's a good thing that you are willing to check. There are many people who look like them. Don't worry. You can screen them. Since they were not in Nanjing before, if they really came to Nanjing, it must have happened recently. Exclude the people from before."

Xu Qingyun said softly that Li Yuanjie had good intentions, but he was getting stuck in a rut and was conducting the investigation exactly as the four groups had done before.

Different situations require different methods.

With so many people going to investigate, let alone them, even if we bring all the intelligence department along, there won’t be enough manpower.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"

Li Yuanjie's eyes suddenly lit up and he slapped his head in annoyance. These people were not the previous undercover agents, but they might come to Nanjing to lurk, especially since the Special High Section suffered such heavy losses, they would definitely send more personnel to Nanjing.

It was for this purpose that Xu Qingyun had asked the Japanese spy to draw his portrait.

It's just that he didn't have the time before and the workload was too heavy, so he didn't do it for the time being. He was actually very happy that Li Yuanjie was willing.

"It's okay, keep investigating, maybe you'll find something."

Xu Qingyun smiled, and Li Yuanjie was very excited: "Thank you, Team Leader Xu, I will check it out right away."

Li Yuanjie left in a hurry. With the guidance of Team Leader Xu, his workload could be reduced by at least 90%.

He came at the right time today. Team Leader Xu is really capable. He understood his problem as soon as he heard it. This time he really did as Xu Qingyun said: those who are involved are often confused.

He is not afraid of being lost. As long as someone gives him some guidance, he will know what to do next.

Li Yuanjie quickly gave an order to verify all people who looked like in the photos.

The first step is to only verify the time they came to Nanjing, which is limited to three months, with one month being the key time.

And he is a person who settled alone after coming to Nanjing.

Whether it is one or two, those who have no relatives in Nanjing are the priority.

The Japanese spies came to lurk and collect intelligence. They had no relatives in Nanjing, and as agents it was impossible for them to live with other people. By doing this, he could screen out many people who did not meet the requirements.

Even if he fails to find the person, he still has merit.

At least in the future when he investigates, he won't have to check the same people again, saving time and narrowing the scope.

Twenty miles outside Nanjing.

Nie Fenglin got out of the car and took off his disguise.

Xiao Wu personally sent him out of the city. It was not easy to send him out, as there were not only guards at the city gate, but also spies from the Party Affairs Investigation Office.

The agents conducted very strict inspections.

Xiao Wu left the city in a convoy, and they inspected the entire convoy, including places where there might be mezzanines.

They even stabbed the bags in the car with knives.

Nie Fenglin was not hiding in the car. He was disguised as a member of the convoy escort team.

Xiao Wu's disguise was not that complicated. He just made a birthmark on his face and changed his hair. But despite these small changes, people who were not familiar with him would not be able to recognize him.

Not many people have met Nie Fenglin, and this is Xiao Wu’s confidence.

Xiao Wu can make birthmarks, and he can make them so real that you won’t be afraid even if you touch them with your hands.

He also made Nie Fenglin taller, and with the matching clothes, he looked like a man who had been living on the edge of a knife all year round, completely different from his previous image.

As for his skin, Nie Fenglin was exposed to the wind and sun in the guerrillas, so his skin was not white to begin with.

"Comrade Nie Fenglin, these are your things. We can't do anything with the gun. You must be careful on the road."

Xiao Wu gave Nie Fenglin a package containing some spare clothes and his ID.

The most important thing is money.

The Nanjing organization was short of funds, but Secretary Huang still gave him fifty yuan so that he could use the money to cover any problems along the way.

"Thank you."

Nie Fenglin's eyes were red. The comrades in Nanjing really had nothing to say about him. Although they had never met before, they immediately launched a rescue operation after learning that he had been arrested.

Rescued himself and sent him out of the city.

"I won't ask where you're going, but please be careful."

Xiao Wu quickly said that his convoy had to continue to leave the city to complete the business and could not leave any hidden dangers for the spies.

"Don't worry, I will pay attention."

After suffering a big loss, Nie Fenglin understood how to hide in the future. He must not do as he did before, when he saw someone having a hard time, he would just go and help.

That's a big taboo.

He did this when he was a guerrilla. While protecting themselves, the guerrillas would also help civilians in need.

"Okay, we'll see you later."

Xiao Wu held Nie Fenglin's hand tightly, and Nie Fenglin nodded heavily. They split into two groups. Nie Fenglin headed south. He wanted to continue looking for the guerrillas. At least he knew the guerrillas' living habits.

No matter which guerrilla group it is, as long as we can find the organization.

Xiao Wu went north to hand over the goods.

Two days later, Lao Liang left his original residence, and he was a little reluctant to leave.

The place he moved to is not nearby, so he will not come here again to avoid being discovered that it is him.

He will no longer go to work in the pharmacy. This time, not only his identity will change, but his job will also have to change. He cannot do a job that puts him in the spotlight, and he should try to let fewer people see him.

Li Yuanjie has already found more than a hundred people who look like the person, but only a few of them have just arrived in Nanjing, so there is no problem in relying on his people to verify.

"Captain, we found someone with a problem."

Li Yuanjie was standing on the roadside when his men suddenly ran over and said excitedly.

"Which one?"

Li Yuanjie stood up immediately. The team member took out a photo of one of them and said quickly, "His name is Wang Yuxin. He came to Nanjing a month ago. He was a rickshaw driver in Shanghai before and is also pulling a rickshaw in Nanjing."

How did a rickshaw driver from Shanghai come to Nanjing?
Li Yuanjie immediately took out the sketch Xu Qingyun had given them and compared it with the photo of Wang Yuxin that was taken later.

It is indeed very similar, at least 80%.

"What suspicion does he have?" Li Yuanjie asked immediately.

"We found out that he was not very diligent and did not work very hard, but he always paid a lot of money. According to the drivers who worked with him, Wang Yuxin was not very familiar with driving a rickshaw, and he did not have much money left after driving every day."

unfamiliar?
It is indeed a doubt, and a big doubt.

"Where is he from?"

"The registered person is from Northeast China, but he came from Shanghai. Should we go to Shanghai to check where he used to work?"

"Check it out immediately. I'll go back and report now."

Li Yuanjie nodded. Wang Yuxin was a major suspect. How could a rickshaw driver who had been driving in Shanghai for several years not be familiar with pulling a rickshaw?
What's more, you can earn more by pulling a rickshaw in Shanghai, so why go to Nanjing?
Wang Yuxin explained to people that he had offended someone in Shanghai and that person smashed his car, so he had no choice but to come to Nanjing to make a living.

But Li Yuanjie and the others would not believe this reason.

As an agent, especially an intelligence agent, your instinct is to doubt everything.

Any doubts must be investigated thoroughly.

"Captain, we have found a suspect."

Li Yuanjie quickly came to He Rongtang's office and said excitedly.

"So fast?"

He Rongtang was stunned. Li Yuanjie had only been out for a few days, and the Intelligence Group 4 had spent a long time searching for him before they could find one.

Besides, he didn't even think about finding anyone this time.

“This is his photo…”

Li Yuanjie explained Wang Yuxin's situation in detail, and He Rongtang immediately understood that this person was indeed a suspect, and a big one.

"I have sent someone to Shanghai to conduct an investigation."

"Is anyone keeping an eye on us?" He Rongtang asked.

"Watching."

Li Yuanjie nodded and decided to keep an eye on any suspect he found immediately.

"Very good, go ahead. If you don't have enough manpower, I'll always be there to support you."

He Rongtang was very happy. He didn't expect that Li Yuanjie really found the suspect. If the identity of the Japanese spy could be confirmed, it would mean that their group two had also found the Japanese spy.

"Thank you, Captain. I'll be there soon."

Li Yuanjie left quickly. After thinking for a while, He Rongtang stood up and went upstairs to Xu Qingyun's office.

His current office is on the first floor, the same one Xu Qingyun used before.

"Team Leader Xu, are you busy?"

He Rongtang knocked on the door and walked in, saying with a smile, while Xu Qingyun stood up: "Team Leader He is here, sit over here."

He Rongtang originally wanted to confirm the identity of the Japanese spy before telling Xu Qingyun. After all, the initial clue was given to them by Group 4, and he had to express this favor.

But he was afraid that if he came too late, Xu Qingyun would think too much.

Just come over now, no matter whether it is true or not, there is no harm in coming and saying hello to Xu Qingyun.

Xu Qingyun would not steal his credit, and in his heart, Xu Qingyun's status was more important than his own. If the section chief or deputy section chief needed to be replaced in the future, Xu Qingyun would definitely be promoted.

His military rank is only lower than his now.

However, as long as one has made contributions, one can definitely be promoted to this kind of position and rank.

"Thank you for your guidance to Li Yuanjie last time. He just found a suspect today." He Rongtang said with a smile. Xu Qingyun was also stunned: "Did he really find one?"

"Yes, this person is very suspicious..."

He Rongtang explained the situation, and Xu Qingyun immediately realized that there was more than a 50% chance that this person was a Japanese spy.

It seems that the Japanese really sent people to Nanjing again.

"Congratulations, Team Leader He. Keep an eye on him and find out his identity. Maybe you'll get even more."

Xu Qingyun congratulated him with a smile, and He Rongtang was immediately relieved. Xu Qingyun really had no intention of stealing the credit from them.

"Thank you for your kind words, but without you, he wouldn't have had this harvest."

He Rongtang thanked him with a smile. He had already explained the situation and no longer had any psychological burden.

He came quickly and left quickly.

Xu Qingyun saw him out and returned to his desk.

It was a good thing that Li Yuanjie found the Japanese spy. The new people sent by the Japanese had many flaws. If they could all be caught, it would be a bigger blow to the Japanese.

By then the Japanese will understand that sending people to Nanjing again is just a waste of time.

However, Xu Qingyun also knew that no matter how many people he captured, the Japanese would not give up. Nanjing was too important, and they had to get more intelligence here.

Japan has long attached great importance to intelligence.

"Team leader, Lü Peiyong is a major suspect."

Not long after He Rongtang left, Dai Jieying came running over. She had previously found four suspects and conducted a thorough investigation on them. Two of them had been cleared of suspicion because of their unknown assets.

They have extra money and can't find it.

Quite a few.

However, after Yan Ming came back, he helped them find the source of the money.

There are two more people who also have unidentified financial situations. Dai Jieying found one of them. He had inquired about important intelligence, which was later known to the Japanese.

However, the Japanese did not expose the information immediately and waited for a whole year before revealing the information.

This makes him even more suspicious.

"Very good. Keep an eye on him and see if he has a dead mailbox. Don't let up on the other one either. Keep tracking him down."

Xu Qingyun was very happy. It was a double blessing. Group 2 had made a breakthrough, and so did they.

Diplomatic intelligence is equally important. If we find the traitor, we may be able to find the Japanese spy behind him.

"Yes, don't worry, we will investigate it carefully."

Dai Jieying replied excitedly that this girl was making rapid progress. No matter how much she learned in school, it was all theory. Now that she had handled many cases with her, she had grown up.

Especially Yan Ming, who has been helping her.

Yan Ming is the smartest one, and Xu Qingyun can feel absolutely at ease with him around.

"Go."

Xu Qingyun smiled and sent Dai Jieying away. Zheng Jiming walked in again.

"Team leader, I need a leave to have a tooth extracted."

His tooth didn't hurt as much anymore, so he could have it pulled out. This lesson left a deep impression on him. Before, he thought he could resist the punishment, but a toothache made him feel like dying.

He seriously doubted whether he could withstand the punishment.

"Can I remove it now?"

Xu Qingyun asked with a smile. When Zheng Jiming had a toothache, it was he who made him hot egg tea, which helped him relieve the pain.

"Yes, the doctor said that I can have it removed when it doesn't hurt anymore. I want to go as soon as possible."

Zheng Jiming replied that the clinic closed early and he couldn't go there too late, so he asked for leave.

"Go."

Xu Qingyun nodded. Medical technology in this era was not as advanced as in later generations. Once a tooth was damaged, the best way was to pull it out, otherwise it might hurt again in the future.

Zheng Jiming was scared and wanted to have the tooth extracted as soon as possible.

After Zheng Jiming left, Xu Qingyun thought with a sense of mischief whether Zheng Jiming would give him a pair of gold teeth in the future so that the golden glittering gold would be revealed when he spoke.

Thinking of this, Xu Qingyun laughed to himself.

"Mr. Zheng, be careful when you go back. Don't drink alcohol or eat spicy food."

Zheng Jiming's tooth extraction went smoothly. Doctor Huang gave him anesthesia and it didn't hurt.

"Thank you, Dr. Huang, you are really good at cooking."

Zheng Jiming happily paid the money. He felt much more comfortable after having the tooth extracted. At least he didn't have to worry about not being able to sleep at night anymore.

"Thank you for the compliment. Take these medicines on time. Come back in two days and I'll check you out. If there's no problem, I'll give you dental implants later."

Secretary Huang sent Zheng Jiming to the door and watched him leave.

This was Zheng Jiming's second time here, and he noticed something was wrong the first time.

Zheng Jiming had a gun on him.

His companion also had a gun and was very vigilant. Although he came alone this time, he was carrying a gun.

Secretary Huang didn't dare touch his things.

He had a gun and was wearing plain clothes. He was not a policeman. Even if he was a policeman, he would not wear a gun the way he did.

Besides, this is not how the police acted when they came to him.

Secretary Huang has met countless people, and he found a familiar taste in Zheng Jiming.

spy.

There are two major categories of Nanjing spies, and other subcategories are not included for the time being.

For example, Japanese spies are mostly lurking and would not be so blatant.

There are also intelligence personnel affiliated with other military leaders, but they are few in number and not very capable.

The two main categories are the Party Affairs Investigation Department and the Military Intelligence Department.

The Party Affairs Investigation Office is their biggest enemy.

Although the Military Intelligence Department was established not long ago, it still poses a considerable threat to them.

Which department is Zheng Jiming from?
Party Affairs Investigation Office?
Secretary Huang conducted an investigation into the Party Affairs Investigation Office. Zheng Jiming carries a gun with him, so he must be from the Intelligence Department or the Operations Department.

In these two departments, there is no one named Zheng Jiming, at least at the team leader level and above.

Zheng Jiming drove every time he came, and he even had a driver the first time. Secretary Huang didn't think of him as an ordinary team member at all.

If it's not the Party Affairs Investigation Department, then it could be the Military Intelligence Department.

No matter where he is, Secretary Huang will pay special attention to the fact that his work cannot reveal any flaws, otherwise it will be a disaster.

In Hangzhou, Matsumoto had a gloomy face and stared at Leng Minghai in front of him with eagle eyes.

Last time, he paid the full amount to Leng Minghai and gave him ten gold bars as a deposit, asking him to bring Xu Qingyun to Hangzhou as soon as possible.

Once the person arrives, he only needs to provide Xu Qingyun's whereabouts.

There was no need for him to do anything, but so many days had passed and there was no news.

If it weren't for the fact that the Hangzhou Special High Police only instigated him to rebel, Matsumoto would have wanted to kill him.

"Team Leader Matsumoto, I have tried my best, but Xu Qingyun is the team leader and his rank is higher than mine, so I cannot transfer him."

Leng Minghai felt frightened by his gaze and couldn't help but explain.

"I didn't ask you to transfer anyone. You just need to make some noise at Hangzhou Station to lure him out."

Matsumoto suppressed his anger and spoke slowly. Leng Minghai complained again: "What can I do to lure the head of the headquarters intelligence team to Hangzhou?"

"Besides, I'm from the action team, and I don't know anyone from the intelligence team at all."

"enough."

Matsumoto slammed the table, scaring Leng Minghai so much that he shivered.

"You fabricated a leak and pointed the finger at the intelligence team. Last time you investigated for the traitor but didn't find any. If there is another leak this time, the headquarters won't trust you anymore. They will most likely send someone to handle the matter, and that person could be him."

There was no way out, so Matsumoto gave him some advice. The section chief was also very dissatisfied with Leng Minghai's work efficiency.

This time, it was Leng Minghai whom the section chief asked him to meet.

"Team Leader Matsumoto, I heard he's very powerful. Will he find me out after he comes to Hangzhou?"

Leng Minghai asked carefully, and Matsumoto was so angry that he almost slapped him. It turned out that he had not moved because he was afraid of this.

"Didn't I tell you to point to the intelligence team and steal a copy of their intelligence without letting anyone know it was you who did it?"

Matsumoto suppressed his anger, and Leng Minghai was still useful, but after this time, he would personally find a suitable person to instigate a rebellion, and Leng Minghai was determined not to accept it again.

"I understand. Okay, I'll do it." Leng Minghai nodded.

"As soon as possible. I'll only give you five days."

Matsumoto said coldly, but Leng Minghai didn't care and left in a hurry.

It's useless to give him a time limit. He will do it if he can do it, and he will never do it if he can't.

He understood that he still had value to the Japanese, and the Japanese did not dare to go too far with him.

He likes money and wants money, but the prerequisite is to save his life. If you lose your life, what’s the use of having so much money?

From this point of view alone, Leng Minghai is considered a smart man.

"Captain, Wang Yuxin is not a driver, his resume is fake."

On the afternoon of the third day, Li Yuanjie received a call from his subordinates in Shanghai. The people he sent to Shanghai contacted many rickshaw companies, but no one had seen Wang Yuxin.

There are many rickshaw companies in Shanghai, but there are only a few big ones, and the people in the big companies know the drivers of the small companies very well. They all pull rickshaws on the streets on weekdays and have met each other.

The two people who went there asked many people, but no one had seen Wang Yuxin.

In particular, Wang Yuxin once mentioned that the area where he was active was their main target, but they still had not found anyone who knew him.

"Great! He must be a Japanese spy. Keep a close eye on him."

Li Yuanjie was very happy. His identity as a person from the Northeast was still being verified. His main task was to find people from his hometown here and to find out who had seen him.

This will take time, but since he falsified his work, it is very likely that his identity is a disguise.

Li Yuanjie reported this to He Rongtang, who was also happy.

There has also been progress on Xu Qingyun's side.

He was outside at this time, with Yan Ming and Dai Jieying beside him.

Dai Jieying prepared real intelligence for Lu Peiyong, just like when she was in the Transportation Bureau. Today, Lu Peiyong ran out alone, sneaking on the road, most likely to deliver the intelligence.

Yan Ming immediately asked someone to report and Xu Qingyun came over in person.

Lu Peiyong is not an ordinary person. His family has heroes who have made great contributions to the founding of the country, and he has many connections in both the military and political circles.

Later, his family fell into poverty, but he still had connections and someone to take care of him, and he eventually joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and worked in the Asia-Pacific Department.

His situation is a bit similar to Xu Qingyun's. His elders in his family died in the battle, so he relied on his connections.

But he is a little better than them. At least there is an elderly elder left in Lu Peiyong's family who will give him some face.

All the members of the Xu family who joined the army died in the battle.

Even if one of them is left alive, the Xu brothers won't have to fight on their own.

"How long have you been inside?"

Xu Qingyun suddenly asked, and Dai Jieying immediately looked at her watch: "Thirteen minutes, team leader, do you want to go in and take a look?"

"hold on."

Xu Qingyun shook his head. This case was important, mainly because the people involved were not simple, so he came here in person to take charge. Neither Yan Ming nor Dai Jieying could control these children of officials.

"Team leader, we found out who booked the room. He's an Englishman named William."

Yan Ming ran back. Lu Peiyong did not go to the dead mailbox to deliver the information, but went to a high-end hotel and entered a room.

After discovering this, Yan Ming went to investigate the person who booked the room.

"British?"

Xu Qingyun's eyebrows jumped. How did the British get involved? Was their investigation wrong? Lu Peiyong was not a Japanese spy and had never leaked any information.

Xu Qingyun immediately denied this.

Lu Peiyong is very suspicious, especially since he sneaked out today and it was obvious that he was not doing good things.

Moreover, he was in the Asian Department, which had nothing to do with the British, and Lu Peiyong had never worked in the European Department before.

"Yes, he is said to be an old customer here and used to come here often."

Yan Ming replied that he found out the information from the hotel waiter. If he was given some money and Yan Ming was a good talker, there would be nothing he couldn't find out.

"Wait until they come out and keep an eye on both of them."

Xu Qingyun said softly, Dai Jieying was stunned for a moment, and asked hurriedly: "Team leader, aren't you going to arrest anyone?"

"I can't catch him. I won't catch him today."

Xu Qingyun didn't explain to her. No matter what Lu Peiyong did when he met William, they couldn't do anything to these two people without evidence.

If you want to arrest someone, you must get solid evidence.

Especially since one of them is a descendant of a meritorious service and the other is a foreigner, we must not act rashly.

"Yan Ming, go and find out if William uses the same room every time he comes. Also, conduct a detailed investigation on William to find out his work, interpersonal relationships, places he often goes to, etc."

"Dai Jieying, the other suspect must also be investigated in depth. There cannot be any omissions."

Xu Qingyun gave orders continuously, and Yan Ming and Dai Jieying stood up straight to receive them.

Lu Peiyong is a suspect, but he did not release any intelligence today and did not meet the Japanese, so Xu Qingyun cannot move.

After returning to the Military Intelligence Department, Xu Qingyun did not go out.

The situation is unclear now, so he didn't make too many guesses. He will wait and see the results of Yan Ming's investigation.

Yan Ming investigated quickly and came over the next day.

"Team leader, William is a British businessman. It is said that his ancestors were once nobles, but he does not have a noble title."

noble?

Fortunately, nothing was done. Although he did not have a title, someone in his family inherited the title and was not an ordinary person.

"William lives in Shanghai, but he comes to Nanjing every one or two months. He has opened a business in Shanghai. The specific situation needs to be investigated in Shanghai."

"You said he comes here every one or two months?" Xu Qingyun asked.

"Yes, he stays in that hotel every time he comes. I have obtained his check-in records." Yan Ming nodded.

"Does he have any business here?"

"I don't know. The hotel staff didn't see him discussing any business. But they said that he stayed at their place every time he came, and he often met different people. He didn't like to change rooms. As long as the room was available, he would stay there."

"Very good, tell Dai Jieying immediately, release another piece of information, and install a bug in the room while he's away."

Xu Qingyun immediately gave the order. William was also a major suspect, but at this time he had already guessed who William was.

What Lu Peiyong did was indeed related to intelligence, but he was not serving the Japanese. He was selling intelligence for his own profit.

William was most likely an intelligence dealer.

Whether in Shanghai or other important cities in the world, there is this type of people active there who make intelligence their business and buy and sell intelligence.

Intelligence is very valuable, some of it is worth thousands of dollars, and there are many buyers.

Lu Peiyong was not instigated by the Japanese, but he was still a traitor who sold out the interests of his countrymen. Any spy is considered a traitor.

"Yes."

Yan Ming took the order and left. These things were not difficult for him.

Dai Jieying, in accordance with Xu Qingyun's request, released another piece of intelligence.

But this information is false, not true.

They don't have that much real intelligence, and the last time it was the section chief who helped them get it.

For Xu Qingyun, as long as it can be useful, it's enough. He has guessed Lu Peiyong's identity, so it doesn't matter whether the information is true or false.

At the Yayi Department, Lu Peiyong is checking.

"Peiyong, please handle this document."

The deputy section chief walked in, and Lu Peiyong immediately stood up and took the document from the section chief.

This is a report on domestic cooperation with Russia. Russia spans the Eurasian continent, and the European Department also has connections with them.

However, this time it is the situation in the Northeast, which is under the responsibility of their Asia Division.

After processing the document, Lu Peiyong's eyes lit up. This intelligence was extremely valuable. The country was going to secretly cooperate with Russia to sabotage the Japanese in the Northeast.

William would definitely want such information.

William said that many of his buyers are Japanese, and they are the most generous. William can make a lot of money with such information.

At the same time, the benefits he will receive will not be small.

Lu Peiyong is a mole, a mole instigated by William to rebel, and he specifically provides intelligence to William.

There were many martyrs in the Lu family, but they did not live such a good life. Lu Peiyong was very envious when he saw many people with inferior backgrounds to himself living a luxurious life with fine clothes and delicious food.

He was stared at by William, and the two hit it off immediately.

With the money William gave him, he not only bought a bigger house, but also had everything he had never dared to want before.

How much money can this information bring him?

The last intelligence was worth three hundred dollars, and this intelligence was more important. Based on the value of the intelligence, Lu Peiyong thought that he should be given at least one thousand dollars.

As for William, he will definitely earn more, probably at least two or three thousand dollars.

After work, Lu Peiyong immediately found a public phone and called the hotel.

After a while, he hung up the phone with satisfaction.

In a room in the hotel, Yan Ming was sitting there listening in person, and their conversation just now was all recorded.

Lu Peiyong told William that he had good stuff, very valuable stuff, and asked William if he wanted it now.

William asked him to come to the hotel immediately, but they didn't discuss the details over the phone.

It's not because they are careful, but because the calls are forwarded by someone, including within the hotel, so they won't say too much on the phone.
