The Spy

Chapter 99: How do you see me?
The next morning, Xu Qingyun got up early.

He couldn't let Xu Zhanjie wait for him.

After arriving at the hotel and having breakfast with Xu Zhanjie, Xu Qingyun drove him to Tianjin Station.

Wu Shaoshu had just arrived at the office and was in a good mood.

He called back all those stationmasters who deliberately ridiculed him. The content was long, such as how many Japanese spies and traitors were arrested by Tianjin Station and their ranks. He didn't say anything else.

This is their achievement, what the other stations are most jealous of.

You guys are laughing at me, so I will make you feel uncomfortable and hurt each other.

"Stationmaster."

The secretary suddenly walked in, bringing nothing with him, but with a look on his face that looked a little strange.

"what's up?"

"Section Chief Xu and Team Leader Xu are here." The secretary replied hurriedly.

"Which Chief Xu?"

As soon as Wu Shaoshu asked the question, he was stunned. There was only one section chief named Xu who could come to see him.

"Chief Xu of the Intelligence Department is here?"

Wu Shaoshu asked in disbelief, and the secretary nodded without saying anything.

It’s really him. Why did he suddenly come to Tianjin?

No matter what Xu Zhanjie's purpose was, he couldn't just sit there and watch when a big shot from the headquarters came. Wu Shaoshu stood up and went outside to greet him in person.

"Chief Xu, when did you arrive? Why didn't you say hello in advance?"

Wu Shaoshu walked over and said enthusiastically. Xu Zhanjie laughed and said, "I just arrived last night. It was too late to tell you. Let's go to the office and talk."

He came to ask for someone, but it's not convenient to talk about it outside.

"You want to transfer Qingyun to the headquarters?"

After hearing Xu Zhanjie's explanation of his purpose, Wu Shaoshu's good mood disappeared instantly. The reason why they were able to achieve such a great victory in Tianjin was entirely because of Xu Qingyun.

Xu Zhanjie was not kind enough and wanted to cut off the source of the problem by transferring his most capable subordinate, his intelligence team leader.

"Stationmaster Wu, Qingyun is my student. I haven't taught him well yet, and he is willing to go to Nanjing with me."

Xu Zhanjie said with a smile, and Wu Shaoshu almost cursed.

What the hell can you teach him? Qingyun is better than you. What can you teach him? You were so shameless to accept him in the first place. Do you really think he needs you?

Wu Shaoshu suppressed his impulse and immediately shook his head: "He is the intelligence chief we just appointed, Chief Xu, isn't it appropriate to poach my intelligence chief?"

"Understood. Don't worry, I'll help you get one. Just tell me who you want."

Wu Shaoshu's reaction was within Xu Zhanjie's expectations, but he still smiled.

"I don't want anyone else but Qingyun."

Wu Shaoshu refused. Obviously, Xu Zhanjie came secretly to persuade Xu Qingyun first and then put pressure on him.

He won't agree to it, and anyone who agrees is a fool.

"Stationmaster Wu, Brother Wu, don't be like this. You don't have anything to do here for the time being. It will take time for the Japanese spies to rebuild their intelligence network. If you force Qingyun to stay, you will only hinder his future."

Xu Zhanjie continued to persuade him, and Wu Shaoshu looked very unhappy, as if he wanted to punch him twice.

It is despicable for him to say in front of Xu Qingyun that it would ruin his future.

Wu Shaoshu didn't say anything, Xu Zhanjie continued: "Qingyun is gold, it will shine wherever it is, you don't object to this, right?"

Wu Shaoshu continued to remain silent. With Xu Qingyun here, he couldn't say anything against it, but he wouldn't agree with Xu Zhanjie either.

"Nanjing is more important. There must be Japanese spies there. You don't deny it, right?"

"The headquarters is at a higher level. Qingyun is there, and he has me as his teacher to take care of him. I can get him promoted to major quickly. Can you do that in Tianjin?"

Xu Zhanjie asked three questions in a row, and Wu Shaoshu was furious, but he could not deny that Xu Zhanjie was telling the truth.

"Qingyun is a talent. His role is to deal with more Japanese and serve the country. We cannot hinder him for selfish reasons. This is both disloyal to the country and harmful to Qingyun. Brother Wu, let Qingyun go to where he is more needed. This is what we should do most."

What Xu Zhanjie said sounded high-sounding, but to put it bluntly, it was just poaching.

Everyone can say nice things or big words, but Xu Qingyun is here, which makes Wu Shaoshu feel uncomfortable and unable to curse.

"Qingyun, you go out first."

Seeing that the time was almost right, Xu Zhanjie said with a smile, and Xu Qingyun immediately stood up: "Teacher, stationmaster, you guys chat."

Xu Qingyun felt a little embarrassed as Xu Zhanjie was poaching people right in front of him.

However, it must be admitted that Xu Zhanjie was right. There must have been Japanese spies in Nanjing. He knew better than anyone how cruel the Japanese were.

He is just one person, what he can do is limited and he cannot change the general trend.

If we can catch more Japanese spies and reduce the harm to our people, it will also be a great merit.

An hour later, Xu Zhanjie went out with a smile on his face.

It's done.

Xu Qingyun was willing to leave, so he brought Xu Qingyun here personally. If Wu Shaoshu was not stupid, he would understand that he could not stop him.

People's hearts are not with him. It is useless to keep him and it will offend people instead.

But if you want to take Xu Qingyun away, you have to pay a price.

Xu Zhanjie made many promises to Wu Shaoshu. First, he would transfer him the most capable intelligence team leader. Xie Yongshan's personality was not suitable for the intelligence team, so he had to be transferred elsewhere.

Secondly, it is to help take care of Wu Shaoshu at the headquarters.

This promise is the most important. If anything happens in the future, he will inform Wu Shaoshu first, which is equivalent to giving Wu Shaoshu an important ally at the headquarters.

At their level, it’s not just about merit that counts.

Their status and power are the most important.

Ultimately, Xu Zhanjie will help him keep power.

This commitment is more important than money.

Knowing that he could not keep the person, Wu Shaoshu did not force him to stay. After getting enough benefits, he agreed to let him go.

Just now he said that whoever agreed would be a fool, but in the blink of an eye he became the one being scolded.

There is no other way. If we force him to stay, not only will Xu Qingyun be dissatisfied, but we will also completely offend Xu Zhanjie.

Besides, Xu Zhanjie played a rogue on him.

He told him that if he didn't release him, he would lend him the money. Wu Shaoshu had no way to refuse, but he lent him the money more than once, every year and every month.

Borrow for thirty days at a time.

In this way, he achieved his goal, but Xu Qingyun's future would be delayed. After all, his connections were at Tianjin Station, which was not as convenient as at the headquarters.

Wu Shaoshu was full of admiration for Xu Zhanjie, as he could do such hooligan things so openly and naturally.

"teacher."

Seeing Xu Zhanjie coming out, Xu Qingyun walked over. He had been waiting outside.

"Come in, Stationmaster Wu has something to tell you."

Xu Zhanjie patted his shoulder with a smile. Xu Qingyun already understood that Xu Zhanjie had gotten the job done.

"Stationmaster."

When Xu Qingyun entered the office, Wu Shaoshu's heart was still bleeding.

He agreed, but he was forced to do so.

He knew better than anyone how capable Xu Qingyun was. If such a person was always around, he would not be afraid of the Japanese at all, and the other stations could not compare to him.

Unfortunately, he met an old rogue.

"Qingyun, your teacher is right. The headquarters is more suitable for you. I can't delay you because of my selfishness."

Wu Shaoshu forced a smile, and Xu Qingyun bowed his head: "Thank you, Station Master."

"Chief Xu said that if you want to bring someone, that's totally fine. You can bring whoever you want."

What Xu Zhanjie had thought before was correct. Since Xu Qingyun was released, Wu Shaoshu would not hinder others.

The most important person is gone, and the rest doesn’t matter.

"Stationmaster, I don't have many people with me, only Yan Ming."

"Okay, you tell him, I'll get the transfer orders for you." Wu Shaoshu nodded, then sighed: "Qingyun, I didn't believe there were geniuses in this world before, but after meeting you, I realized how ignorant I was. Now that you're in Nanjing, do your job well. You're the one who came out of our Tianjin Station, and I'll always be proud of you."

"Thank you, Stationmaster. Don't worry, I will never bring shame to Tianjin Station."

"Go ahead and get ready."

Wu Shaoshu didn't say anything else. Those who can't be kept will leave sooner or later.

After all, Tianjin Station is too small.

Back in the office, Xu Qingyun called Yan Ming: "I want to be transferred to the headquarters..."

"What, team leader, you want to leave?"

Xu Qingyun was interrupted by Yan Ming before he could finish his words, and he was very anxious.

"Team Leader, can you take me with you?"

Without waiting for Xu Qingyun to speak, Yan Ming took the initiative to follow Xu Qingyun away. He now believed that Xu Qingyun would be right no matter where he developed in the future by following a capable leader.

"I came here to ask you this question. Since you are willing, that would be great."

Xu Qingyun smiled and nodded, and Yan Ming breathed a sigh of relief. The headquarters was bigger, but it was not entirely a bad thing for them.

Going to headquarters, they must be going to the Intelligence Department.

He had heard that Section Chief Xu had come suddenly, and now he finally understood why Section Chief Xu came to Tianjin.

He is here to poach people.

The team leader teacher is the section chief and is a direct descendant of the team leader. He does not have to worry about his future.

The news that Xu Qingyun was leaving quickly spread within the station.

No one expected that Xu Qingyun would be transferred to Nanjing just one day after taking over as head of the intelligence team.

But think about it and it is understandable. The ability demonstrated by Xu Qingyun is obvious to all, and it is indeed a waste of his talent for him to stay in Tianjin Station.

Not to mention, they also have a section chief teacher.

"Group Leader Xu."

Xu Qingyun was sorting things in the office, mainly things that needed to be handed over.

He originally planned to review all the spies developed by Cao Yunfeng, keep the suitable ones and replace the unsuitable ones, but he didn't expect to be transferred so soon. Let the new team leader do this work in the future.

As for the spy in the police station, Xu Qingyun did not punish him.

He didn't know Cao Yunfeng's purpose and just did what he was told. He was a deceived person.

"Team Leader Fang."

The person who came to find Xu Qingyun was Fang Laibao. When Xu Qingyun saw it was him, he immediately stood up.

"Team Leader Xu, I heard that you are being transferred to the headquarters. Is this true?"

"That's right. The teacher will discuss it with the stationmaster himself, and the transfer order will be issued soon."

Xu Qingyun did not deny what was about to be made public.

"Team Leader Xu, can you take people to the headquarters?" Fang Laibao asked immediately.

"Bring someone, who do you want me to bring?"

Xu Qingyun was slightly stunned. Who did Fang Laibao want to send to the headquarters? Or did someone from the intelligence team ask him for help and want him to take them away?

"What do you think of me?"

Fang Laibao said carefully. After hearing today that Xu Qingyun was going to be transferred to the headquarters, his mind suddenly became active.

Fang Laibao is smart and is not content with the status quo.

His development prospects at Tianjin Station were limited, and even if he was promoted in the end, he would only be the team leader of the telecommunications group, and there was no possibility of any other position.

He admired Xu Qingyun very much.

Xu Qingyun's abilities are definitely far superior to others. This is his chance. If he can follow Xu Qingyun to the headquarters, his future development will definitely be better.

For the sake of his future, Fang Laibao decided to take a chance.

If you miss this opportunity, you may never get it again.

"Team Leader Fang, you are not kidding, right?"

Xu Qingyun was stunned. Fang Laibao wanted to go with him?

He hadn't thought of Fang Laibao before, mainly because Fang Laibao was not an intelligence officer and he was going to the Intelligence Department.

Besides, Fang Laibao's military rank is higher than his, so how could he be willing to follow someone of a lower rank than him?

"Team Leader Xu, I'm serious. I know I'm not an intelligence officer, but I can learn. Don't worry, I won't hold you back. If you think I'm stupid or unsuitable, you can always kick me out."

Fang Laibao quickly said that he wanted to join the intelligence team and had a better future, and this was his best chance.

The intelligence team are not born agents, they have gone through learning and training. If others can do it, they can do it too.

The key is to get in first.

"Team Leader Fang, let me think about it."

Xu Qingyun did not agree to him immediately, but was considering whether this was feasible.

Fang Laibao is capable, alert, and has the talent to be an intelligence officer.

The best proof was that he was able to discover suspicious points about Cui Zhengfeng last time.

Zuo Jinfang was not sure whether to bring Yan Ming alone with him to the Military Intelligence Department as there were not enough people around him.

Fang Laibao took the initiative to surrender, and if possible, he could be fully accepted.

"I can't make the decision on this matter. Let me ask the teacher first."

After a while, Xu Qingyun said softly, Fang Laibao was overjoyed and immediately stood up and bowed: "Thank you, Team Leader Xu."

Xu Qingyun was equivalent to agreeing to his request. Although it has not been confirmed yet, it has at least been half successful.

He believed that Section Chief Xu would not refuse. Section Chief Xu valued Xu Qingyun very much and came in person this time just to take him away.

The webmaster would not refuse. He was now 70% sure that he could follow Xu Qingyun to the headquarters this time.

"Fang Laibao?"

After listening to what Xu Qingyun said, Xu Zhanjie was slightly stunned.

He didn't know who Fang Laibao was.

To him, an interrogation team leader at a branch station was an insignificant figure, as long as he was not a traitor.

"Fang Laibao is great. He was able to capture Miyajima this time..."

Xu Qingyun told about Fang Laibao's performance, and Xu Zhanjie nodded gently: "Since you agreed, take him with you. Wu Shaoshu will not refuse."

"Can you bring him into the Intelligence Department?"

Xu Qingyun was willing to take Fang Laibao with him, but there was no point in sending him to the interrogation department at the headquarters.

"Sure, you can take whoever you want."

"Teacher, can we add another policeman?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xu Qingyun asked again that another person he was going to bring was Zuo Jinfang.

Xu Zhanjie smiled and said, "I told you, you can take anyone you want, no need to ask."

"Thank you teacher."

Xu Qingyun thanked him immediately. Xu Zhanjie didn't care about the matter. He was the chief of the intelligence department and it was all about who he wanted to absorb.

What's wrong with not having received training? Xu Qingyun didn't have any either.

Among those so-called professional agents, who can compare with Xu Qingyun?

"Team Leader Fang, the teacher agreed."

Back in the office, Xu Qingyun smiled and nodded to Fang Laibao who was eagerly waiting.

"Thank you, Team Leader."

Fang Laibao was overjoyed and extremely excited. In the eyes of others, it was foolish for him, a leader of the interrogation team, to defect to a leader with a lower rank than himself. But he himself understood that this would be a great opportunity in his life.
