The Spy

Chapter 299 Determining Identity

Chapter 299 Determining Identity
The car drove into the Wuhan Station of the Military Intelligence Department, and there were quite a few people standing downstairs in the main building.

Before He Rongtang got out of the car, he saw Xu Qingyun standing in the middle.

"Stationmaster, I, He Rongtang, report to you."

As soon as the car stopped, He Rongtang opened the door himself, got out quickly, walked up to Xu Qingyun and saluted.

"Deputy Station Master He, you are too polite. Please come in."

Xu Qingyun smiled in return. He understood that He Rongtang did this on purpose to let others see that he was putting himself first and that he did not come to Wuhan to seize power.

This is good, at least the internal situation is stable and no other trouble will occur.

"Stationmaster, please go first."

He Rongtang bent down, and his attitude really reassured many people. Only Yan Ming knew that He Rongtang was a very smart man and he did it on purpose.

When He Rongtang was at the same level as the webmaster, he always put the webmaster first in everything. Now he does these things without any psychological burden at all.

Xu Qingyun didn't say much and took He Rongtang into the meeting room.

"I will now read out the headquarters appointments."

Only the group leaders and deputy group leaders attended the meeting. Following Xu Qingyun's words, everyone stood up.

He Rongtang was the deputy station chief, so it was natural for him to stand next to Xu Qingyun.

"Wuhan Station..."

It started with praise, and then came the appointment. After Xu Qingyun read it out, He Rongtang officially became the deputy station chief of Wuhan Station.

Actually, he took over Xu Qingyun's position, but unfortunately his power was no match for Xu Qingyun.

As the deputy webmaster, he is a housekeeper and an assistant.

Before he came, the director gave clear instructions, that is, to let him be an informant, so that if anything happened at Wuhan Station, the director would be the first to know, so that nothing would be concealed.

"In the future, we will work together to assist the stationmaster and make new achievements."

He Rongtang’s speech was very simple. He stated that he was just an assistant and announced some commendations from the headquarters to the Wuhan station.

Promotions in rank have to wait, but other rewards do not.

There are currently no vacant positions at Wuhan Station, and no one is being promoted in position, so the main reward is monetary.

He Rongtang has already brought the money over.

Chu Zuo understood that He Rongtang went to Wuhan too late and was not familiar with many people there. Asking him to bring money over would help him better integrate into Wuhan Station.

"Rong Tang, I'll take you to the office."

After the meeting, Xu Qingyun changed the way he addressed He Rongtang. Since He Rongtang cooperated, he had to give him some benefits.

For example, the subsidy for senior management within the station is 50 yuan per month for a team leader, but for He Rongtang it is 200 yuan.

Although two thousand four hundred a year is not a lot, it is better than nothing.

He Rongtang had no real power, and he was not as good as Nanjing in Wuhan. At least if someone asked him to do something, they would definitely give him some gifts.

Subordinates at the Wuhan station did not need to give any money to their superiors. Anyone who dared to accept it would be in trouble. Naturally, He Rongtang no longer had these gifts.

The subsidy given to him is equivalent to compensation.

"Thank you, Station Master."

He Rongtang thanked him immediately. His office had been prepared in advance. Wuhan Station was rich and never vague in treating him. He Rongtang's deputy station chief's office was better than the headquarters.

As for Xu Qingyun, he is still in the previous office and did not change because of the promotion.

His office actually belongs to the webmaster.

"As for your accommodation, if you want to live in the station, I'll let Jiming find an arrangement for you. If you don't want to live in the station, I can choose a more suitable place for you outside."

"Stationmaster, I'm alone, I can just live in the station."

He Rongtang immediately shook his head. He had known for a long time that Xu Qingyun had always lived inside Wuhan Station and had not moved out. He did not want to be treated specially, and living inside the station would allow him to be closer to the stationmaster.

He Rongtang is very smart and can see the situation clearly.

I never thought about competing with Xu Qingyun before, and I won’t do that now.

Following Xu Qingyun is not without benefits for him. Xu Qingyun is young and has better development prospects in the future. If he returns to the headquarters, he will definitely be the head of the intelligence department.

If Xu Zhanjie was suddenly transferred, the position of chief of intelligence department would also fall on Xu Qingyun.

If he does a good job, he might be able to return to the Intelligence Department and serve as deputy chief.

Even if he can't do it, once Xu Qingyun is transferred, he has a great hope of taking over as the Wuhan stationmaster.

The future looks bright.

"That's fine, Jiming. Go see if Deputy Station Master He needs anything and get it all for him."

Xu Qingyun nodded slightly. Strictly speaking, He Rongtang was one of their own. He understood that the director would ask He Rongtang to keep an eye on the Wuhan Station, but he didn't care. It didn't matter whether he kept an eye on it or not.

What he doesn't want the Virgo to know, the Virgo will never know.

Besides, He Rongtang would not report everything. This deputy station chief was a smart man and knew what he could say and what he could not say.

In the Party Affairs Investigation Office, Tong Changming also received praise from Xu Laogui.

Although he failed to catch the Japanese spy in time, he saved Cen Junxian, which was a great achievement. At least he prevented the Military Intelligence Department from arresting their people.

If she were really captured by the Military Intelligence Department, Dai Yunong would be so proud.

He had been arguing with Dai Yunong a lot in the past two days, and asked the Wuhan station to send evidence.

For example, the photos of Japanese spies taken previously, their surveillance records, etc.

These evidences fully confirm that Cen Junxian is not a traitor, he deliberately cooperated with the Japanese. Tong Changming wanted to catch more Japanese spies, especially Kitazawa.

Give Tong Changming some time. It might be them, not the Military Intelligence Department, who will arrest Beize.

Tong Changming's report was that he wanted to catch Suzuki. Xu Laogui naturally would not tell the truth and directly said that he wanted to catch Bei Ze, proving that they were also keeping an eye on this section chief and had made some progress.

It was the Military Intelligence Department that arrested the person they were targeting, which prevented them from catching the man.

Old Ghost Xu wanted to let others know that they were also good at catching Japanese spies.

After all, several Japanese spies had been captured before.

Tong Changming has made great contributions, and Cen Junxian is an even greater hero.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tong Changming directly removed a captain who performed poorly and promoted Cen Junxian, who truly became his man.

There are many people who pay attention to the intelligence department, and many of them know that Xu Qingyun has taken over several people from the Wuhan Special High Section.

Even their new section chief was arrested.

Although they knew about it, some people didn't care much about it. Instead, they felt something was wrong when three people from the government department were suddenly transferred to Nanjing.

Unfortunately, their intelligence capabilities are limited and they don't know the reason.

Bei Ze spent a lot of money to find someone to act as a middleman to contact Lu Gaowa.

In addition to this person, he also found another person who had some relationship with Lu Jianhu, the chief of the telecommunications team of the Military Intelligence Department, and he also promised Bei Ze that he would be willing to help.

Lu Jianhu is an old employee of Wuhan Station, but he is not that close to Zheng Jiming.

After making sure that Lu Gaowa was willing to help, Bei Ze never contacted him again, but he still gave him away.

If the three of them spent more money, perhaps they could have saved their lives, but if they spent less, they would still be doomed.

"Section Chief, something happened to one of our people."

In Shanghai, Kazuo Iijima hurried to Ouchi's office and reported in a low voice.

"are you sure?"

"It has been confirmed. It is said that he was beaten to death."

Iijima Kazuo nodded. Fang Laibao and his team had been closing in for several days. During the routine contact time two days ago, one of their groups did not send a safety message.

Kazuo Iijima felt something was wrong at the time and sent people to Nanjing to verify the situation.

They did not deploy security guards in Nanjing. Previously, a security guard had an accident, which implicated Beichuan. Ouchi learned this lesson and sent people from Shanghai if something really happened.

Nanjing only has one emergency safety officer.

In case of emergency, they have no one in Nanjing and cannot notify anyone in time.

This emergency safety officer knows nothing and is replaced every year to prevent them from getting into accidents.

"Dead? Was it intentional by the Military Intelligence Department, or was he really dead?"

"It's still unclear, but I heard there were a lot of gunshots at the scene, and the people were so scared that they didn't dare go out."

Iijima replied in a low voice that he reported as soon as he got the news, and the people he sent were still in Nanjing, continuing to gather information.

"Immediately inform him that everyone in that group should find a reason to leave first."

Ouchi gave a decisive order that no matter whether he was really dead or not, they had to do what they should do.

If he was really killed by the Military Intelligence Department, his undercover agents would be able to continue to stay in Nanjing, but now they must leave to ensure their safety.

"Yes."

Iijima took the order, and Ouchi looked at him, his eyebrows suddenly jumped: "Are there any abnormalities in other hidden teams?"

"Not yet, Section Chief. Do you mean to check on the others as well?"

Iijima was stunned, and Ouchi nodded gently: "Yes, if there are still people who are captured and surrender, the Chinese will probably let them deliberately send a safety signal to paralyze us."

Ouchi's suspicion is not without reason. The Military Intelligence Department has done this before.

He now needs to learn from his experience and not make the same mistake.

"Understood. I will go to Shanghai immediately."

Iijima nodded heavily. This was to verify the situation of all their undercover personnel. This kind of thing could not be left to others, only he could do it.

"Thank you for the trip, please be sure to pay attention to safety."

Ouchi stood up, walked over to Iijima, and patted him gently on the shoulder.

If possible, he didn't want his confidant to take the risk of going to Nanjing, but he had to find out the truth.

"Don't worry, I will come back safely."

Iijima left in a hurry. He had to go to Nanjing and needed to travel secretly.

After he went out, Ouchi sighed.

This matter cannot be reported to the chief section chief for the time being. He is from the headquarters and has friends there who know that something has happened to the acting section chief of Wuhan Special High Section, Kitazawa.

The chief section chief was very angry about this.

Everyone else was very surprised and didn't understand why the chief section chief was so angry this time. They thought he was angry because the Wuhan section chief was arrested.

Ouchi was also unclear, but he had a feeling that the chief was not like this because Kitazawa was caught and deceived, or it was not just because of this.

I'm afraid there are other reasons.

If he reports the loss at this time, he will probably receive a heavier punishment, so he has to wait until the chief section chief calms down.

Now he could only pray that only the team leader was in trouble and everyone else was fine. If the loss was too great, he would also be in trouble.

There are only six undercover teams in Nanjing, all of whom are experienced undercover agents. Such agents need to be transferred from other places, and their number is limited.

If the losses were too great, his position would become even more dangerous.

Fortunately, he had done a lot of work during his time in Shanghai. As long as that thing could be accomplished, even if one undercover team was lost, the section chief would not do anything to him.

Everything will have to wait until the results of Iijima's investigation come out.

Time passed slowly, and it was already the end of October. The weather in Wuhan had become much colder.

Faraway Singapore is now bustling with activity.

The pharmaceutical factory that Xu Qingyun and Mr. Chen were working on had already started construction. After Xu Jiaming returned to Shanghai, he immediately went to Chongqing.

Xu Fuzhong went to Xi'an.

The factory in Chongqing can be built immediately, but a site needs to be selected in Xi'an, and it must be in a safe place.

Both Chongqing and Xi'an were frequently bombed by the Japanese.

Without air superiority, they can only watch the enemy planes continue to wreak havoc. Fortunately, there will be mercenaries in the future who can help them shoot down some Japanese planes.

It’s a pity that the sky is still controlled by the Japanese and the people will suffer for a while.

After spending the five million, Xu Qingyun had little money left in his account. The one million dollars invested by Mr. Chen was used to build the factory.

One million dollars is enough for three factories.

However, not all the money can be used to build the factory. The raw materials are not available domestically, so they have to import them from the United States.

Buying raw materials also costs a lot of money.

Fortunately, Xu Qingyun's company is a cash cow. If he is given a few months, he can make a lot of money.

Before the war, Xu Qingyun would stockpile large quantities of raw materials. Once the war broke out, he would have to purchase the raw materials needed for the next few years to avoid being strangled by the Japanese blockade of the sea.

As for the raw materials that can be produced domestically, they also want to produce them themselves.

Once the war breaks out, the prices of these raw materials will surely rise. Xu Qingyun knows better than anyone how evil the Americans are, and he cannot give the Americans the opportunity to rip him off.

The money was sufficient and the factory progressed rapidly.

The pharmaceutical company will ship $1.5 million worth of goods to China in three batches, with the first batch being $300,000.

At least until the end of the year, American pharmaceutical companies don’t have to worry about sales and can produce at full capacity.

At this time, the boss of the pharmaceutical factory was already grinning from ear to ear. He felt that the business he did with the Chinese was very worthwhile and it could be said that he had made a lot of money.

The factory in Singapore will be built first and will only take three months.

The Chongqing Pharmaceutical Factory will take a little longer, about five months. Chongqing is mountainous, and air defense needs to be considered in advance, so construction will be slower.

As for Xi'an, Xu Qingyun's plan is six months.

We must pay attention to air defense and build the factory more solidly to avoid being destroyed by the Japanese in the future.

When the war broke out, Xu Qingyun realized that the location of his pharmaceutical factory could not be kept secret and would become a target of Japanese bombing.

If we don't take good precautions and it's destroyed by the Japanese, it will have a huge impact on production.

Chen Changcun is now full of energy.

Mr. Chen has promised him that he will be in charge of the factory after it is built. Chen Changcun has the best relationship with Xu Qingyun, so he is the most suitable person to be in charge of the pharmaceutical factory.

Wuhan, Xu Qingyun came to the window.

It's almost November and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. In February after the Chinese New Year, it will be two whole years since he came into this world.

He has completely integrated into this world, but being familiar with history, he knows better how hard life will be for the Chinese people in the next decade or so. In these ten years of disasters and misfortunes, countless Chinese people will die.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much he could do. He could only make arrangements in advance to minimize casualties among his own people.

If you have the chance, save more people.

"Stationmaster, they have confessed everything."

Zhao San came in with a confession.

The three Japanese sent by Fang Laibao made a confession. In fact, their confessions were no longer important. The reason for keeping them was that Xu Laogui did not want to suspect Tong Changming.

It would be even better if you could get a confession.

"well done."

Xu Qingyun took the confession and praised Zhao San. He said that he had managed to get three dumb, deaf and blind disabled people to confess. Zhao San had done a good job.

In fact, Zhao San didn't do anything to them.

They wrote on their bodies to tell them that this was the Military Intelligence Department and that the people who arrested them were from the Party Affairs Investigation Department.

After they confessed, Zhao San could fulfill their wishes.

The three of them had the same wish, which was to be released as soon as possible. Under such circumstances, they were naturally willing to confess.

The writing method is slow.

But as long as they cooperated, they could still get what they wanted. The three of them wrote down the whole situation. Without hands, they bit the pen with their teeth to write.

It doesn't need to be written beautifully, as long as people can understand what they mean.

It took several days to finally get them to confess everything.

Xu Qingyun read the confession carefully. These were not written by the Japanese spy, but a rewrite by Zhao San after the interrogation.

The handwriting of Japanese spies cannot be read, and Zhao San will not use their handwriting to explain.

"Grant their wishes."

After reading the confession, Xu Qingyun looked up and said that the Japanese spies deserved to die and Xu Qingyun would not have any sympathy for them.

The Party Affairs Investigation Office was ruthless, but Xu Qingyun was not happy at all.

The Party Affairs Investigation Office arrested many of their comrades, and no one knows how many people were tortured by them.

"Yes."

Zhao San took the order and left, while Xu Qingyun took Leng Wenxuan out.

The military coats that were ordered before have been made and distributed to everyone. This was purchased by Wuhan Station itself. Xu Qingyun specially gave one to Bi Rongxuan as a small reward for him. After capturing Bei Ze, Xu Qingyun gave Bi Rongxuan another 100 French currency reward.

The money was not much, many times less than what the Japanese gave Bi Rongxuan, but the money was clean and Bi Rongxuan felt at ease spending it.

He had been given two gold bars before, so he could have started a family of his own and then found a wife for his younger brother.

It can even help other younger brothers improve their lives.

Xu Qingyun came again to the place where he met Niu Yuanxiang last time.

The dry goods store is still there and the owner is busy.

During this period, Xu Qingyun had been secretly investigating the boss. It was not convenient for him to come forward, so the clues he obtained were limited.

At present, all we know is that the boss is called Wan Ze, he is from Hubei, and came to Wuhan ten years ago.

He couldn't find out where Niu Yuanxiang was. Due to the shortage of staff, this was indeed inconvenient.

It’s a pity that he can’t develop his own people now.

"Go buy me some tea."

Xu Qingyun pointed to the tea shop nearby. Today he only brought Leng Wenxuan out. Once Leng Wenxuan left, he was left alone.

"Yes."

Leng Wenxuan took the order and immediately ran to the tea shop, while Xu Qingyun pretended to be shopping and went to the dry goods store.

There were quite a lot of goods inside. Wan Ze had just seen off a customer when he saw Xu Qingyun coming over and immediately asked with a smile, "Boss, what would you like to order?"

"Let me see what you have here first."

Xu Qingyun didn't say what goods he wanted. He just walked in and looked around carefully.

There is a door at the back of the shop, and it seems that the owner lives here.

“How much are these fungus?”

Xu Qingyun pointed casually, and Wan Ze immediately replied: "Boss, black fungus is 2.5 yuan per pound, white fungus is more expensive, 5 yuan."

These are all valuable goods, and the price is not low.

However, the fungus of this era is not cheap. The artificial cultivation technology of fungus is not very advanced, and the output is average. Many fungus in China are imported from abroad, so the price is naturally higher.

"Take one pound of each."

Xu Qingyun nodded slightly. He didn’t know whether the price was expensive or not. His main purpose today was to test him and get to know his situation directly.

"Stationmaster, I have bought the tea."

As soon as Wan Ze weighed the two kinds of wood ear mushrooms, Leng Wenxuan ran over with the tea he had bought.

He was incompetent as a secretary, but at least he had made a lot of tea for Xu Qingyun and knew what kind of tea Xu Qingyun liked to drink. If he didn't even know this, he would not be stupid, but foolish.

What Xu Qingyun wanted was to be called Leng Wenxuan.

He was taking out money, but his eyes were always on Wanze's expression.

When Wan Ze heard Leng Wenxuan's address, his expression stiffened for a moment, but he quickly took the money from Xu Qingyun.

"Boss, here is your change. Please take your things."

Two pounds of black fungus cost seven dollars and a half. Xu Qingyun gave him eight dollars and Wan Ze gave him fifty cents in change.

The instant movement on his face was captured by Xu Qingyun.

"let's go."

Xu Qingyun said to Leng Wenxuan beside him that there was indeed something wrong with Wan Ze and he might very well be his comrade.

The title of stationmaster is not common. There are few stationmasters in government departments, and even fewer in the military.

Only some small units, or branches of their intelligence departments have it.

In Wuhan, the most famous stationmasters are Xu Qingyun and Tong Changming, two major spy agencies and enemies of the organization.

Wan Ze had an instinctive reaction when he heard the stationmaster's words, proving that he had heard this title many times.

Secondly, he reacts very quickly, and most people cannot change that quickly.

There is no need to use complicated methods to test. Xu Qingyun is not trying to solve a case or arrest anyone. He just wants to confirm his homosexuality.

Leng Wenxuan didn't think much about it and didn't know that he was being used by the webmaster.

However, Wan Ze, when they left, stood at the door and looked at Xu Qingyun again.

Xu Qingyun's guess was correct. Wan Ze did know the position of webmaster, and he knew it very well.

At this time, Wan Ze was guessing Xu Qingyun's identity.

Xu Qingyun was not wearing a military uniform, but Leng Wenxuan was wearing a new military coat today, with a single layer of clothing underneath.

The military coats had just been distributed, and as the weather was getting colder, many people in the station liked to wear them when going out.

Majestic and domineering, many people like this look.

Why did a man in a military coat call this young man the stationmaster?
Is he Xu Qingyun?
Wan Ze was in charge of organizational work in Wuhan, and he had met Secretary Yuan many times.

I have heard from Secretary Yuan a long time ago that a young station chief has come to the Military Intelligence Department and he is very capable, so I asked them to be careful when they are working.

Thinking of the military coat on Leng Wenxuan, Wan Ze could confirm that this young man was Xu Qingyun.

The military coat was originally custom-made here, and Wanze had met the owner of the clothing maker before.

The boss said he had received a large order to make clothes for the Military Intelligence Department, but he was worried that the people from the Military Intelligence Department would not give him the final payment.

There are no good people in the secret service, so it's normal for the boss to have such concerns.

Wan Ze didn't know whether this batch of military coats had been completed and sent over, but judging by the time, they should have been completed. If they had really been sent to the Military Intelligence Department, the young man who came to buy fungus today could be confirmed to be Xu Qingyun.

Young indeed.

"Boss Li, are you busy?"

In the evening, Wanze came to a nearby clothing store and greeted everyone with a smile.

"Boss Wan, are you free?"

Seeing his neighbor coming, Boss Li greeted him with a smile. Wanze noticed his smile and realized that he hadn't had any worries recently.

Boss Li is an ordinary person. If he is really troubled, it will show on his face, just like when he was making military coats for the Military Intelligence Department.

Although the Military Intelligence Department paid a deposit, it was only 30%. If the balance is not paid, he will lose a lot of money on this deal.

It won’t lead to bankruptcy, but it will be a year’s work in vain.

"The weather is getting colder, and my kid has grown a lot taller. I want to make him some new clothes."

Wan Ze smiled and replied. Boss Li did not doubt anything and immediately took up the topic: "That's right. Has he finished school yet? I'll measure him later. Don't throw away the old clothes. I'll help you sell them."

"Okay, thank you, Boss Li."

Wanze responded with a smile, saying that in this era, clothes are very important possessions for any family.

In ancient times, cloth could be used as money in many places.

Ordinary families will not throw away clothes after they are worn. Those that can be used by family members will continue to be worn, and those that cannot be used will be sold.

Pawn shops are the places that receive the most clothes.

However, the pawnshop was very aggressive in lowering the price. Boss Li was a kind-hearted person. His shop was a clothing store and he had old clothes for sale.

Also makes clothes.

"Boss Li, you look so happy. What good news have you had recently?"

Wan Ze asked casually, and Boss Li smiled even brighter: "Nothing, the thing I was worried about for a long time did not happen. I have already sent the clothes to the Military Intelligence Department, and they paid me at the time, without any shirking."

The Military Intelligence Department paid the final payment, and Boss Li made a lot of money this time.

He had even thought that if the Military Intelligence Department blocked him, he could give up part of the payment, at least 30%.

If he loses 30%, he won't make any money, but he won't lose money either.

Or you can give them more money and ask them to pay off the debt. Common people are most afraid of dealing with officials, let alone spies.

"Congratulations! It seems that spies are not as bad as the legend says."

"Yes, now I feel relieved."

Boss Li nodded with a smile, and Zheng Jiming asked him to go to the finance department to collect the money he had paid.

He wanted to send some to Zheng Jiming at that time, but was scolded and kicked out.

These spies are indeed different, much better than the previous ones.

"Good, you go ahead and do your work. When my boy comes back, I'll have him come over to your place to measure his clothes."

After finding out what he wanted, Wanze did not stay here any longer and returned to his shop.

At this time he could confirm Xu Qingyun's identity.

Wanze thought more about why Xu Qingyun came to his store to buy things. Did he just want some dried black fungus, or did he have doubts about him?
Wan Ze is an old comrade who has been engaged in undercover work for many years.

He knew that he couldn't take chances at any time, but just relying on the fact that Xu Qingyun bought something in his store, he couldn't be sure whether he doubted himself.

The Military Intelligence Department is not the Party Affairs Investigation Department, but if his identity is confirmed, the Military Intelligence Department will arrest him anyway.

Comrade Jin Zian is an example. If they had not discovered it in advance, Comrade Jin Zian would probably have been captured by the spies.

Wanze suppressed his temper, did not move, and continued to lead a normal life.

However, he has been observing his surroundings for the past two days to see if he is being monitored.

If so, he would not go to see any comrades.

It would be best if he could escape with his wife and children. If that isn't possible, he will fight the spies because he has weapons.

"Stationmaster, everything has been handled."

Zhao San came to report to Xu Qingyun again. After the stationmaster gave the order the day before yesterday, Zhao San executed the three Japanese spies today.

In the end, they were not tortured because there was no need, and they were even given a final meal.

Even Japanese spies would be given some delicious food before being executed.

The three Japanese spies knew they were going to be executed and did not make any unusual movements. Their current condition was worse than death, and death was actually a relief for them.

"Headquarters called back to commend you."

Xu Qingyun took out a telegram. He had sent it to the headquarters the day before yesterday. The three Japanese spies had confessed and found out what they wanted.

The headquarters asked them to send the confession over.

Virgos are narrow-minded. They remember how Xu Laogui boasted before, saying that they received a useless person and they couldn't get anything out of him.

I guess the director wants to use this confession to annoy Old Ghost Xu.

Their confessions were slightly different from those asked by the Party Affairs Investigation Office. They included what happened after the three Japanese spies were sent to Nanjing. If Xu Laogui saw such confessions, he would not have any doubts about Tong Changming.

All we can say is that the Military Intelligence Department used useless people to get what they wanted.

Today, the director got the confession and immediately had someone send a copy to Old Ghost Xu, deliberately to disgust him.

Anyway, the Party Affairs Investigation Office already knows these things.

Old Ghost Xu was very angry with the Director, and the Director was so happy that he specially gave Zhao San a commendation.

As for Zhao San's military rank, he will definitely be promoted to captain this time. The report has been submitted and the process will be completed soon.

"As long as you are happy, Station Master."

Zhao San didn't even look at the commendation from the headquarters and just put it back. He knew very well that he was Xu Qingyun's man, and the orders from the headquarters were far less important than those of his own stationmaster.

Zhao San is a smart man, and a small action shows his attitude.

"Go to work first."

Xu Qingyun replied with a smile, and Zhao San left happily.

The Wuhan Special High Section has not had a new station chief, but the person currently in charge is not Suzuki, but Naoto Tanigawa.

Tanigawa was a person brought by the previous section chief Yoshinaga. He defected to Kitazawa in time and was transferred from the logistics group to the telecommunications group. The headquarters let him take charge of the work, which shows that Tsuchihara dislikes Kitazawa.

After receiving the order, Tanigawa first transferred Imai's job.

It was called a transfer, but in fact it meant that he was no longer asked to clean the house. It was a bit inappropriate for the former secretary of the section chief to clean the house every day.

Tanigawa is only temporarily in charge of the people in the Special High Police and has no authority to appoint anyone.

He is not the acting section chief.

"Tanigawa-kun, the headquarters hasn't replied yet?"

Imai came to Tanigawa's office. Tanigawa was still in the telecommunications group. He never asked about the affairs of the intelligence department and the logistics department. Suzuki and the others did whatever they wanted.

But not too much.

Suzuki did not dare to go too far at this moment. The general manager asked Tanigawa to take charge of the work, which was obviously a sign of his dissatisfaction with their Kitazawa faction.

He didn't know his future fate, so he had no mood to fight for power and profit.

Besides, the Wuhan Special High Section no longer has any hidden agents, and with just these few people in the concession, what is there to fight for?

"No, don't worry, the new section chief will come eventually."

Tanigawa shook his head slightly. He knew that Imai was anxious to leave Wuhan and didn't want to stay here any longer.

Even if Kitazawa is not here, he will still be a marginal figure when the new section chief arrives, and he may be asked to carry out dangerous tasks at that time.

Wuhan is not some other place, the Military Intelligence Department is horrible.

They have already lost three section chiefs, and only the first one had a slightly better ending, while the next two had worse endings than the last.

Yoshinaga taught for a very short time and disappeared without a trace after being transferred back to the headquarters. Even their two confidants have no news about Yoshinaga now.

It is very likely that Yoshinaga was sent by the chief section chief to carry out a secret mission.

What secret mission requires such secrecy?
Only lurking.

Kitazawa, who succeeded Yoshinaga, served as director for a shorter period of time than Yoshinaga and was even more miserable. He was caught by the Military Intelligence Department and it is unknown whether he can survive.

Even if he saves his life, Kitazawa will lose his freedom forever.

"Tanigawa-kun, please, give me an order to transfer me back to the headquarters."

Imai suddenly pleaded that it was Tanigawa who was in charge of the work now, and as long as Tanigawa was willing, he could leave Wuhan with just one order.

He had asked before, but Tanigawa did not agree.

"I'm not the section chief, and you're not from the telecommunications team. Even if you are in the telecommunications team, I don't have the authority to transfer you to the headquarters."

Tanigawa shook his head. If he were the section chief, this would just be a matter of a word, but unfortunately he was not.

Tanigawa has always been cautious, as can be seen from the fact that he voluntarily gave up the position of leader of the logistics team. He is actually very smart and knows who he is and what he can and cannot do.

He is not the section chief, so he can be transferred at will. When the new section chief comes, he will not be spared.

Although Imai's request seems easy, it is actually making things difficult for him.

"Ok."

Imai understood that Tanigawa would not help him, and he couldn't help but feel resentful.

They had a good relationship at the beginning and came to Wuhan together.

I didn't expect Tanigawa to be so heartless and watch him die without helping him.

At this time, he had forgotten that without Tanigawa, he would still have to work hard to clean up everything every day.

After seeing him off, Tanigawa sighed.

I don’t know how Section Chief Yoshinaga is doing now, whether he is alive or not. If Yoshinaga were still alive, how could he and Imai have ended up like this?

At this time, Yoshinaga had settled in a small town outside Yanzhou.

As a former section chief, he knew that he could not rush into the city. He should live in an inconspicuous place outside the city for a while and then enter the city after he had enough understanding of Yanzhou.

At the same time, it can also camouflage better.

His method was good. At least there weren't many organized people here, so he successfully hid.

But the days there were nothing comparable to when he was in Wuhan.

Yanzhou was already poor, and the people here did not have enough food to eat, let alone other things. Even if he brought some money, he did not dare to spend it carelessly.

The simple meals he ate every day made him lose weight.

Not only him, but also the liaison officer and two subordinates he brought with him suffered like him here, and they became dark and thin.

There are only four people in this undercover team. Yoshinaga is the team leader. The liaison officer is not responsible for intelligence. He guards the radio station and contacts the headquarters when necessary.

The work has not yet been fully launched, the radio station is currently in silent mode and is not turned on at all.

It is only turned on once a month when the scheduled safety report is made. Their radio has quite a powerful power and requires electricity.

Unfortunately, there is no electricity in this town, so Yoshinaga can only generate electricity on his own.

They brought generators and batteries, all of which he hid well.
