The Spy

Chapter 314: Interrogation of Hibiki
It's much easier outside.

Suzuki first bought some shops not far from Shanghai Station, mainly restaurants, teahouses and grocery stores.

As long as they provide information, they will be given money.

A lot of money.

Money makes things easier, so he arranged more than ten spies, and he knew everything the people at the Shanghai station said and did when they went out.

The Shanghai station is not the Wuhan station and has not been fully integrated. In addition, Suzuki has paid a lot of money, so none of these stores took the initiative to talk about this.

The second group is people who have contact with the Shanghai station.

The Shanghai station needed someone to do the purchasing. Zheng Jiming was appointed as the head of the general affairs group. Suzuki found out where he was going to purchase and made arrangements immediately.

There is no need for them to collect any intelligence. If these people ask around, it will only cause trouble.

Just let them report what they see and hear truthfully.

It was not easy for Suzuki to do all this and to learn about the situation at the Shanghai station in a timely manner without any spies in the station.

He caught a good opportunity. Xu Qingyun had just left, and people were in a panic due to the incident in Xi'an, so he learned a lot about the situation at the Shanghai station.

Now we can learn what is happening at Shanghai Station in a timely manner.

"Xu Zhanjie?"

Takataro Ishida was still wiping his samurai sword and said softly that he had done a lot of homework after coming to China.

He has only one enemy, Xu Qingyun.

But dealing with Xu Qingyun is not just about dealing with him alone, he has a deep understanding of the entire Military Intelligence Department.

Especially Xu Zhanjie.

He had the closest relationship with Xu Qingyun and was Xu Qingyun's teacher. Japan was greatly influenced by Confucianism and was very clear about the extent of this relationship. In later generations, Japan even proposed that they were the orthodox Chinese culture.

Ridiculous.

Just like ancient Rome, when the Roman Empire was strong, many surrounding countries were vassals. After the fall of Rome, those countries that once opposed or confronted it immediately stood up and said that they were the orthodox Romans.

China is the Rome of the West, the difference is that we still exist.

The slander from neighboring countries is due to their inner lack of self-confidence. If China's scientific and technological strength is improved and the whole country is relocated to a better planet, leaving these people on Earth, they will all say that they are the orthodox Chinese.

"Yes."

Suzuki bowed his head and replied. Ishida smiled and said, "It seems that this new deputy station chief has a special relationship with Xu Qingyun."

"Section Chief, why do you say that?"

Suzuki was stunned for a moment and immediately asked. Ishida put the wiped knife back into the scabbard and hung it carefully behind him.

This is his new office. He has no use for the previous section chief's office. Ouchi committed caesarean section in that office. Everyone would think that office is unlucky.

"If it was anyone else, Xu Zhanjie wouldn't come, and their director wouldn't force Xu Zhanjie to come. This person is very close to Xu Qingyun. Don't forget, when we were in Wuhan, no one went to see off the deputy station chief He Rongtang."

"Section Chief, who do you think it could be?" Suzuki asked humbly.

"It can't be Yue Yunxuan. Although Xu Zhanjie and Yue Yunxuan have a good relationship, Yue Yunxuan was the deputy station chief before, so there is no need for him to come and send him off. Fang Laibao is the most likely person. You continue to inquire about the situation. This is not difficult. Get accurate information first."

Ishida didn't say anything definite and asked Suzuki to continue to inquire.

They spent money to develop so many civilian spies just for this kind of intelligence.

Even if it was not accurate information, when it reached him, he had a direction to infer and thus calculated the result he wanted.

"Hai." Suzuki took the order and left.

In the evening, in a luxurious restaurant in Shanghai, Xu Qingyun hosted a banquet for Xu Zhanjie. Xu Zhanjie was his teacher and the chief of the intelligence department of the headquarters, so he sat in the first seat.

Xu Qingyun is on the left and Fang Laibao is on the right.

"Teacher, please say a few words first."

As the host, Xu Qingyun let Xu Zhanjie speak first. There were not many people coming today, all of them were team leaders of the Shanghai station.

Yan Ming, Zhao San, Fu Wenzheng, Dai Jieying, Zheng Jiming, Jiang Cheng and other group leaders of other small groups are not eligible to attend.

"Okay, let me talk first."

Xu Zhanjie smiled and nodded, looking at Fang Laibao beside him, and said with emotion: "Qingyun, you are not only good at solving cases, but also a top-notch expert in training your subordinates. I know Laibao has been waiting for this day for a long time. I am old and cannot retain talented people."

"Old Section Chief, please don't say that."

Fang Laibao was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly, while Xu Zhanjie sighed and shook his head: "See, Laibao said I'm old."

"No, I didn't mean that. You misunderstood, Chief."

Fang Laibao was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. The reason why he called him the old section chief was to distinguish him from the person he had previously called Xu Qingyun.

Who made them have the same surname as the director and deputy director of the intelligence department?

"It's okay, I was just teasing you."

Seeing Fang Laibao's frightened look, Xu Zhanjie laughed out loud. He said it was just a joke, but in fact it was what he really thought. Fang Laibao performed well, and Intelligence Group 4 was the most capable group in their intelligence department.

If it weren't for Xu Qingyun, he would never have let anyone go if other stations wanted them.

However, the better Xu Qingyun is, the better he will be in the future. He knows this clearly. Now that the director has more support from the old man, it can be predicted that the Military Intelligence Department will develop better and better in the future.

He didn't know how long he could remain the chief of intelligence, but with Xu Qingyun around, even if he didn't become the chief of intelligence, the director would give him a good position.

Unlike others, once you lose your job, the rest will be miserable.

"Chief, I'd like to offer you a toast. Thank you for taking care of me during this period of time."

Fang Laibao breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stood up to toast. Xu Zhanjie did not stand up, but clinked the glass in his hand with Fang Laibao's and drank it in one gulp.

The fact that he was able to finish the drink proved his affirmation of Fang Laibao.

"Teacher, I want to toast you too."

After Fang Laibao sat down, Xu Qingyun raised his glass and Xu Zhanjie drank it again.

When Yan Ming was toasting, Xu Zhanjie finally shook his head: "Don't fight me in a round-robin battle. I can't beat you young people. Come on, let's drink together."

The people present were indeed young, with the oldest, Fang Laibao, only in his early thirties.

Next are Fu Wenzhen and Zheng Jiming, Xu Qingyun, Yan Ming, Zhao San, Dai Jieying and Jiang Cheng, all of whom are in their early twenties.

They are in their prime.

"Qingyun, Chuzuo attaches great importance to Shanghai. You should keep an eye on this place. In addition to work, you should also do other things well."

Xu Qingyun understood what other things Xu Zhanjie was talking about.

When returning to Nanjing from Xi'an, Chu Zuo once talked to him about doing business in Shanghai together with him. Xu Qingyun promised Chu Zuo that they could set up a company together and do some business here.

There is no need to invest any capital, and the profits are split 50-50.

Chu Zuo was very satisfied with this and directly stated that as long as there was business, it would be fine, and Xu Qingyun didn't need to send him gifts every year in the future, and he would not accept them even if he was given them.

Chuzuo is a shrewd man. He has long known that Xu Qingyun's business can make money, but he doesn't know how much money.

It must be hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, maybe even millions.

The money they would earn from their joint business would definitely be more than these filial piety gifts. Cooperating in business, instead of just accepting filial piety gifts, would allow him and Xu Qingyun to get closer.

The director never mentioned this matter, but Xu Qingyun had told Xu Zhanjie before, and Xu Zhanjie was the only person who knew about it.

Xu Qingyun was doing business with Chu Zuo, and this interest relationship was even more solid. Xu Zhanjie was very happy and gave him special instructions.

"Teacher, don't worry. I have already arranged this matter."

Xu Qingyun replied softly that he had indeed arranged this matter and asked Xu Fuzhong to help.

But we are not doing the same business as them, but something else.

He wouldn't be stupid enough to let Virgo get involved in his business.

Since we have this relationship with Chu Zuo, we can directly do some business that is difficult to do openly. The Military Intelligence Department will provide escort in all places and no one dares to cause trouble.

He provides the capital, purchases the goods, and all he has to do is wait for the money.

This was also one of the reasons why he told Xu Zhanjie that this matter needed to be kept confidential and not known to too many people, but the station managers of each station must be informed.

"That's good."

Xu Zhanjie knew that his student was the smartest, so he didn't say much and just raised his glass to drink.

The next morning, He Rongtang received a telegram from Shanghai in his office.

The Wuhan station still maintains the model of Xu Qingyun's time. He Rongtang is not greedy. He just wants the money from business that is not distributed every month to go into his pocket.

He would never touch the money in the station.

Under the management of Xu Qingyun, the Wuhan station industry is currently doing very well, with tens of thousands of dollars in revenue each year. He Rongtang does not ask for much, a few thousand dollars is enough.

The main reason is that he has to pay tribute to his superiors.

Every year when we go back to the headquarters, we should give something to the director, right? We should also give something to Secretary Qi, as well as Xu Zhanjie and the heads of other important departments.

Especially the Inspection Department, it must be sent.

He doesn't take money, so how can he afford it with his salary?
The subordinates were very grateful that the Wuhan station could be maintained and thought they were lucky to have Xu Qingyun in front and He Rongtang in the back.

At least the treatment of everyone at Wuhan Station has not changed.

He Rongtang also gave them incentives. If they found clues about Japanese spies or made contributions, they would be rewarded, and monthly performance appraisals still existed.

Especially in terms of performance evaluation, He Rongtang did not have Zhao San, but found an old man who usually performed well at the Wuhan Station to carry out the task, and warned him that if he dared to show favoritism, he would be sent directly to Shanghai and handed over to Stationmaster Xu for disposal.

At least for now, the entire Wuhan station still has strong cohesion and is able to fight and compete.

But the Japanese spy was never found.

All the Japanese spies were wiped out by Xu Qingyun. Ishida Takataro had not been in office for long and was transferred to Shanghai before he had time to re-deploy his troops. He did not deploy any new undercover personnel at all.

"Call Stationmaster Xu back. Taguchi and his men have completed their mission well. They have killed eight people. I have not allowed Taguchi to move around. The Japanese are searching for him with all their might."

After reading the telegram, He Rongtang instructed his secretary.

The secretary nodded and was about to leave when He Rongtang stopped him and said, "I'll write the reply, you go send the message."

It would be better for Xu Qingyun to send the message himself.

He had a hunch that Shanghai was not Xu Qingyun's final destination and he would be promoted in the future.

He is currently the station chief in Shanghai. If he wants to be promoted any further, he can only move to the intelligence, operations, and supervision departments at the headquarters.

If he can get in further, he will be their deputy director.

The current deputy director doesn't take charge of much, who can guarantee that Xu Qingyun won't come to this position in the future?
This time, Xu Qingyun went to Xi'an with Chu Zuo. Even if he didn't have the ability to protect the old man, at least he appeared in front of him in times of crisis.

He Rongtang believed that Xu Qingyun would definitely be promoted in the future.

The most crucial point is that Xu Qingyun is too young.

In Shanghai, Xu Qingyun received a call back from He Rongtang.

This telegram was sent by Zhao San. He left Wuhan suddenly, but the mission of Taguchi and others did not stop.

During this period, Taguchi worked very hard and assassinated eight Japanese who were stained with the blood of Chinese people.

There was no turning back for Taguchi.

"Call Station Master He back and ask him if he can give me these six people."

After reading the telegram, Xu Qingyun instructed Zhao San that Tiankou was not of that much value in Wuhan, but it was different in Shanghai, so they could be asked to come over and do something.

Likewise, start with small things and gradually give them more important tasks.

They are Japanese and Japanese agents, so some things can be done more easily than the people at the Shanghai station.

Of course, it would be impossible to let them go to the Japanese Concession.

Several of these people are now wanted criminals, and the Japanese will arrest them immediately when they see them.

"Yes."

Zhao San took the order and left, and soon the telegram reached He Rongtang.

"Immediately arrange for someone to send Taguchi and others to Shanghai."

Not to mention these few people, he would not refuse even if they asked for people from the Wuhan station. In the Military Intelligence Department, there were not many people he truly admired.

Chu Zuo is one, Xu Zhanjie can barely be counted, and Xu Qingyun is another.

Especially Xu Qingyun, they had worked on cases together and had worked together, and he admired Xu Qingyun the most.

"Stationmaster, Stationmaster He has already arranged for someone to send them over. Who are you asking us for?"

Zhao San came back quickly and said with a smile that he didn't expect He Rongtang to be so cooperative.

He was very familiar with the situation at Wuhan Station and knew that He Rongtang had been continuing the practices of the previous stationmaster. This was rare. Who wouldn't want to show themselves when they got to a high position?

What's more, there are so many temptations of wealth.

Continuing the previous practice, He Rongtang gave all the money he could take to the people at the Wuhan station.

"No need, call Station Master He back to express my gratitude."

Xu Qingyun smiled and shook his head. He also knew about He Rongtang's affairs. It was rare to have such cooperation, and he would remember this favor.

He is not He Rongtang's superior now, and He Rongtang is in charge of Wuhan Station as the deputy station chief. He can still support him so much. Xu Qingyun is indeed a little surprised.

"Yes."

Zhao San took the order. It was a good thing for Xu Qingyun that He Rongtang was willing to cooperate. It was a way of repaying a favor. Since He Rongtang treated him like this, he would have the chance to help him in the future and get him promoted as the station chief.

Considering Xu Qingyun's current relationship with Chuzuo, or his influence on Chuzuo, this matter is not difficult to accomplish.

Xu Zhanjie did not stay in Shanghai for too long and returned to Nanjing the next day.

As soon as he arrived in Nanjing, he went to the director's office and immediately issued a transfer order.

Ten people from the fourth intelligence group were transferred to Shanghai, including Zuo Jinfang. Zuo Jinfang was a person Xu Qingyun specially left at the headquarters to help his brother. The 37th year was almost up, and his brother Xu Qingyun was going to transfer him after the new year, so there was no need for Zuo Jinfang to stay in Nanjing.

However, it was Fang Laibao who took the initiative to propose his transfer, and he brought it up during the meal. Neither Xu Zhanjie nor Xu Qingyun refused.

Fang Laibao found a good opportunity and transferred all these old subordinates over.

Xu Qingyun did not transfer all the people here. He only kept a dozen old members from Intelligence Group 4. They had handled many cases, gained rich experience, and their abilities had improved a lot.

By keeping them, Intelligence Group 4 will still be very combat-effective.

"Stationmaster."

The people from Nanjing came very quickly. They rushed over immediately after receiving the notice and only took some things back with them.

Xu Zhanjie couldn't help shaking his head at their anxious looks, but Xu Qingyun did have a charm that made these men follow him wholeheartedly. "They're all here."

Xu Qingyun received ten people from Nanjing in the conference room. All ten people were very excited as they finally returned to their old boss's command.

Fang Laibao and Yan Ming are both here.

The two were equally happy. These people were all veterans of their Intelligence Group 4. With them around, the work at the Shanghai station would be easier to carry out.

"Stationmaster, we have waited for this day for a long time."

Zuo Jinfang responded first. He was the most excited. He was a member of the Xu family and had been Xu Qingyun's most trusted confidant when he was at the police station.

In the end, I was unable to go to Wuhan and had to wait for more than a year.

Fortunately, I came to Shanghai.

"We are all family. If you come and work hard, the stationmaster will not treat you unfairly."

Xu Qingyun gave Fang Laibao a wink, telling him that Fang Laibao had called these people over, and asked him to encourage them.

"Don't worry, Deputy Station Chief Fang. We will never lose face for Intelligence Group 4."

Intelligence Group 4 is a meritorious group, especially the earliest members. Everyone has pride in their hearts, and no matter where they are, the people from Group 4 can always hold their heads high.

Others had no choice but to accept the result, because it was their fault that they could not achieve the same results as Group 4.

"The stationmaster and I both believe in you."

Fang Laibao smiled and nodded. He had reminded these people after they arrived that they must use the secondary character when addressing him.

Especially in front of Xu Qingyun.

The closer the person is, the more he should do so. It doesn't matter to outsiders. He is not afraid that Xu Qingyun will think too much. Fang Laibao knows that his webmaster doesn't mind these things.

He was afraid that the old people at Shanghai Station would misunderstand him, and he didn't want even the slightest misunderstanding.

"You just arrived, go and rest for a while, Yan Ming will make arrangements for you."

Xu Qingyun took the initiative to say that they were all family members and there was no need to be so polite. These people all knew Yan Ming. Although Yan Ming was the captain at first, he was the captain of the most important team.

He is also the webmaster's confidant.

Among the ten people, there was someone who had followed Yan Ming before.

"Thank you, Station Master."

The ten people stood up and saluted together. The Military Intelligence Department belongs to the military department. Xu Qingyun pays attention to details. They have developed good habits as early as when they were in Group 4.

"Laibao, let's have a meeting after we settle them down."

Before returning to the office, Xu Qingyun told Fang Laibao that he had been at Shanghai Station for some time, but due to various delays in the early stages, the work of the entire Shanghai Station had not yet been integrated and arranged.

Now that I have time, I want to complete all these tasks before the New Year.

They will gather in Chongqing during the Chinese New Year this year. The two old men of the Xu family are now focusing on Xu Qingyun's business.

One is their trading company and the other is the pharmaceutical factory.

Both old men knew how popular sulfa drugs were, and they understood the profits of this drug. Xu Qingyun spent so much money to buy the license, and he had to make back all the money as soon as possible.

They also have to sell out the quota assigned to them by the United States.

The two old men are now full of energy.

Whether it is the trading company or the sulfa business, the income in just half a month is higher than the Xu family’s annual income before. With such a profitable business, it is hard to be bored.

"Yes."

Fang Laibao replied that this meeting was mainly for the intelligence group, with only one person from the action group participating, the team leader being Fu Wenzhen.

Soon, the intelligence team leader, deputy leader, and three team leaders all came to the conference room.

The Japanese spies lurking in Shanghai were all eliminated after Iijima was captured, including the traitors they had instigated.

But it doesn’t mean that they would lose their jobs if there were no Japanese spies.

Shanghai is so big, the Military Intelligence Department has many responsibilities and needs to do more things.

"Yan Ming, next you will check all the troops stationed in Shanghai. The first round of investigation will be officers above the battalion commander level, including the battalion commander."

"The main thing is their family situation and thoughts. This time we need to check them very clearly. The key is whether there are people who like Japan or have admiring thoughts about Japan. After these people are found, we will focus on investigating them."

Xu Qingyun first said that after the end of the war in Peking, Shanghai was the first to be hit.

Moreover, the Battle of Shanghai was more brutal than the Battle of Peking, and military ideology was particularly crucial. Japan's national strength was stronger than China's, and many officers had studied in Japan. Their thoughts were very important, and if they did, prevention must be done in advance.

These people are traitors who may defect to the Japanese during the war.

Even if they didn't do anything, Xu Qingyun would still make arrangements for them.

Xu Qingyun knows best the harm these people can do. Once they betray him, they will spare no effort to prove themselves to their new masters, and discrediting their own country is just a basic operation.

Those in power persecute Chinese people even more severely than the Japanese did.

Their hearts have become black, and they don't even acknowledge that they are Chinese. Some even worse feel ashamed and embarrassed to be Chinese.

There will be no shortage of such people, either now or in the future.

If such people are found, Xu Qingyun will not give them the opportunity to go to the battlefield.

When it comes to framing others, the Military Intelligence Department is definitely an expert, and special treatment is given in special times.

Xu Qingyun doesn't care whether they have done anything to harm the Chinese people or not, as long as there is such a possibility, he will kill them.

Even if I have to bear the blame for it.

"Yes."

Yan Ming took the order, and the three captains also remembered Xu Qingyun's order clearly.

"Wen Zheng."

Xu Qingyun looked at Fu Wenzhen. The intelligence team would need a large number of manpower just to investigate the military, and they would have no energy to do anything else.

"The humble position is here."

Fu Wenzheng stood up, Xu Qingyun waved his hand and asked him to sit down: "Your mission is to investigate the people, with a focus on Japan."

Fu Wenzheng was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Stationmaster, what is Rifu?"

"Hibuki" is a term from later generations. It had not appeared at that time, but Xu Qingyun just said it casually. I wonder if this term would be widely known to the world because of him in advance.

"They are people who usually worship Japan, speak for Japan, and think that Japan is good in every way. Especially when they say Japan is good, they belittle their own country."

Xu Qingyun explained for him, and Fu Wenzhen was slightly stunned. Is there such a person?

Due to the limitations of information dissemination and the absence of the Internet, if you wanted to understand the outside world or other people’s thoughts, you could only do so through newspapers and radio. There was not even television at that time.

They have never seen such a person.

Or maybe you have seen it before but didn't pay much attention to it, and thought it was said by your own people.

Not to mention them, even in later generations, it would be incredible to encounter such people for the first time. They would not understand why there would be people who completely abandon their ancestors and focus on the outside world.

Don’t they know that China is their roots? No matter how many good things they say about foreign countries, they will be abandoned immediately when they are no longer of any use to foreign countries.

Some people are full of joy and run to what they think is a paradise, but in the end no one pays any attention to them.

There are even people who starved to death in foreign countries because of this.

"This is a lot of work, so you need to pay attention to your skills. People like this usually say a lot about other people, mainly to get public opinion. You can ask the police and gangsters for help."

Xu Qingyun reminded that the action team only had more than a hundred people, and with a population of four million in Shanghai, it would be impossible to check everyone even if they ran themselves ragged.

More people need to be mobilized to help.

The police and the gangsters know the people on the street best, and they know where such people are.

There are also teahouses, restaurants, even postmen, shoe shiners, rickshaw drivers, and all kinds of street vendors.

These people can be mobilized when necessary.

The Military Intelligence Department has the responsibility to investigate public opinion, and they are not afraid of being discovered when investigating Japan.

"Stationmaster, rest assured, I will do my best."

Fu Wenzhen sat up straight. He understood how heavy the workload was.

"Laibao, you are responsible for identifying the spies from the Shanghai station. Use those who can be used and clear out those who can't. If you find one person serving multiple parties, remove him directly."

Xu Qingyun looked at Fang Laibao. He had his own spies at every station. Yu Hongyu had been in Shanghai for many years and had developed quite a few spies.

But these eyeliners are uneven. Those that are usable can be kept, and those that are not usable can be discarded.

We can't use money to support these good-for-nothings.

"Yes, stationmaster."

Fang Laibao took the order. This kind of screening was not difficult for him. Fang Laibao was smart and had worked in the interrogation team and prison, so he had seen all kinds of people.

Don't try to hide the true performance of these spies from him.

He knew what the stationmaster meant. The so-called one person serving multiple parties meant being their spy and providing intelligence to other departments.

Including but not limited to the Party Affairs Investigation Office.

This kind of person is equivalent to a traitor and may even have sold out secrets of the Military Intelligence Department. To eliminate him is to make him disappear.

"Okay, let's break up the meeting."

Xu Qingyun announced the adjournment of the meeting and everyone left in a hurry. With the tasks assigned to them, everyone had to get busy.

The intelligence group and the operations group had the heaviest tasks, and Fang Laibao identified the people he did not intend to use. Apart from these two groups, the telecommunications group and the general affairs group had the same number of people.

In particular, there are quite a few people in the general affairs group.

Dai Jieying is an intelligence talent, so she can be asked to assist him, and Zheng Jiming can serve as the team leader.

Fang Laibao has enough manpower.

Dai Jieying and Zheng Jiming were both notified to go to Fang Laibao's office to accept the task. Dai Jieying, in particular, was very happy.

This time is different from Wuhan. In Wuhan, the station chief said that he would only let her serve as the acting telecommunications team leader and she could return to the intelligence team later. This time the Shanghai station was cleaned up more thoroughly, and she would have to stay here until there was a suitable telecommunications team leader.

Dai Jieying was very depressed that the telecommunications team was unable to handle the case.

Unexpectedly, good news came out of the blue. The stationmaster assigned her multiple tasks, and Deputy Stationmaster Fang was short of staff, so he asked her to come and help.

And he is the main assistant.

For her, being able to handle the case is enough. She needs to select a suitable person to replace her in the telecommunications team as soon as possible so that she can return to the intelligence team in the future.

Suzuki soon learned about the movement at Shanghai Station.

After getting the latest summary of intelligence, Suzuki came to Ishida's office.

"Section Chief, you guessed it right. The deputy station chief is Fang Laibao."

Suzuki said admiringly that this was the result of his latest investigation. There was a mission at the Shanghai station and many people went out. Some people mentioned these when they bought things.

"As expected."

Ishida nodded with satisfaction. His correct guess proved that he knew Xu Qingyun well enough, which was a reflection of his ability.

Especially in front of his subordinates, he can predict the future and he likes the feeling of being admired by them.

"In addition, their headquarters has sent 10 more people, all of whom are veterans of the previous Intelligence Group 4. It seems that Xu Qingyun has made some big moves recently. It is not clear what they are doing yet. I have arranged for people to keep an eye out. Whoever can learn about this in advance will receive a reward of 100 French francs."

With a huge reward, these people on the street will be very active.

What does it matter if they are not at the Shanghai station? It doesn’t matter if they are not agents. As long as they can get intelligence and achieve their goals, it’s fine.

Suzuki now admired the stationmaster's arrangement even more.

By using only some inconspicuous people, they revitalized their intelligence team and helped them understand a lot about the situation at the Shanghai station.

"Well done, we figured out all their whereabouts as soon as possible. No matter what they do, we just have to prevent them from succeeding."

Ishida smiled and nodded. The purpose of his coming to Shanghai was to target Xu Qingyun. He wanted to make Xu Qingyun suffer setbacks at work and fail to achieve results, so that he would not be able to report to his superiors.

"Hay."

Suzuki took the order and left, but Ishida's smile gradually disappeared. In front of him was a piece of information that came from Xi'an.

After the incident in the west, the whole city was under martial law and their people were unable to obtain any useful intelligence.

After the control was lifted, I gradually understood some things.

At present, Ishida only knows that Xu Qingyun went to Xi'an and was with their director, but he has not yet found out what exactly he did.

People in Xi'an have already started investigating, but it may be difficult to get results in a short period of time.

After General Zhang escorted the old man to Nanjing, he was placed under house arrest in disguise.

General Zhang's men are in a panic, and the old man is using various strategies to divide them. Ishida wants these people to rebel. The more the Chinese fight among themselves, the better it will be for the empire.

If there were a major civil unrest throughout China, he would even give up the mission to deal with Xu Qingyun.

It's a pity that things didn't turn out the way he wanted.

These are not part of his job and are beyond his control. What he is thinking about now is the reason why Fang Laibao came to Shanghai.

It seems that Xu Qingyun gained a lot in Xi'an this time, and even their director sent his confidant to serve as deputy station chief.

The deputy station chief was Fang Laibao, and Ishida gave up the idea of ​​doing anything to him.

Such confidants cannot be persuaded to rebel, and ordinary strategies of sowing discord are completely useless.

If the people from the Shanghai Special High Section had not been driven away before, he might have been interested in giving it a try and let these people do it.

Without them, Ishida didn't want to lose his men intentionally.

It is impossible for Fang Laibao to incite rebellion. Anyone who tries to contact him will almost certainly die. Currently, these subordinates are his helpers and they cannot be wasted.

Singapore, Chen Changcun has been very busy recently.

After the pharmaceutical factory went into production, there were always people waiting, and every time a batch of people came out they were taken away.

However, someone with great power discovered that some of the drugs they produced were stored in the warehouse, so he went up to inquire.

Chen Changcun explained that the goods were ordered by someone else and they had not come to pick them up yet.

This reason can only be used temporarily and cannot be used all the time.

If no one takes the goods away for a long time, these people will definitely become suspicious. Everyone wants to get the goods as soon as possible and doesn't want to wait.

Time is money, the sooner you get the goods, the more you earn.
