You were allowed to marry into No. 76 family, and you were promoted to director?

Chapter 295 Crisis
Although she was also an undercover agent in the underground party, Miao Xue knew in a practical sense that her undercover work was to leave a way out for the section chief, and this way out absolutely could not be cut off by anyone!

If Yang Huamei is really exposed, she wouldn't mind killing her herself!

Seeing that Miao Xue remained there, the interrogation couldn't continue tonight. Zhang Sanjin smiled and looked at Miao Xue:

"Section Chief Miao, it's so late. Why don't you go and get some rest? Leave the rest of the interrogation to me. Don't worry, I'll definitely get the results tonight."

Miao Xue dared not leave now. She didn't care about the fake underground party member, but it was clear that the fake one had his eye on Yang Huamei. If she wasn't here, and Yang Huamei foolishly fell for it, then she would be doomed.

"Zhang Sanjin"

Before Miao Xue could say anything more, Zhang Sanjin replied with a beaming smile:
"Section Chief Miao, you can just call me Little Fatty."

Miao Xue continued, her face cold:
“I can’t leave 76 now. The ban can only be lifted if I find out what the director needs. So, I’m going to rest now. Where do you want me to rest? In the office? I think we should continue the intensive interrogation and find out what the director needs first.”

Zhang Sanjin was speechless. Miao Xue really didn't understand human relationships at all. Wasn't his hint that she should leave obvious enough?

"Alright, let's continue the interrogation. Li Sibao, since we can't use torture, let's go through the methods we used before again. I want to see just how tough he really is."

Zhang Sanjin clenched his fist silently, while Li Sibao nodded listlessly.

For Li Sibao, being forbidden from using so many quick and effective methods was nothing short of torture.

The fake victim on the torture chair stared wide-eyed. "The same torture instruments again?! Holy crap! Is this woman out of her mind?"
He's going to try again, and he's sure he'll confess. Now he's even considering giving up.

Zhang Sanjin's lips twitched as he watched Li Sibao prepare to make his move. This guy was too compatible with Miao Xue; Li Sibao carried out Miao Xue's orders without the slightest hesitation.

Yang Huamei, standing to the side, was working her brain at a rapid pace.

Li Dong would never treat his comrades like that, but Miao Xue did it anyway.

Therefore, in this situation, either Miao Xue realized that the arrested comrade was an imposter.

Or perhaps Miao Xue is waiting for an opportunity, a chance to rescue the person.

But Yang Huamei felt that the first one might be the biggest.

Having worked together for so long, Yang Huamei understands Miao Xue's personality very well and trusts her completely. Therefore, Miao Xue's unusual behavior today must mean she has discovered something!
Thinking of this, Yang Huamei quickly went through all the processes of her contact with this comrade in her mind.

Medical room!
These three words popped into Yang Huamei's mind, instantly sending a chill down her spine.

Yang Huamei hadn't thought anything of it before, but considering Miao Xue's unusual behavior, she realized she might have made a fatal mistake.

I was a little too concerned about him when we were in the infirmary!
This problem may not seem like a big deal at first glance, but if someone pays close attention and looks at it from a broader perspective...
After taking a slight breath, Yang Huamei's eyes turned cold.

With Li Sibao's help, the underground party member finally spoke:

"I'll talk, I'll talk!"

The so-called comrade, with bloodstains at the corner of his mouth, spoke with extreme weakness. Li Sibao's half-process was not something an ordinary person could endure, let alone having done it twice.

In short, he didn't want to do it a third time.

Zhang Sanjin sighed slightly. Although the process had deviated slightly, the goal had been achieved.

"What's your name? Where are you from?"

On the torture chair, Zhu Cheng, half-dead, opened his somewhat chapped lips:
"My name is Zhu Cheng, and I'm from Nanjing."

"Are you a member of the underground Communist Party?"

"Yes, it is me."

Listening to Zhang Sanjin's interrogation, Miao Xue rolled her eyes, sat down next to him, slammed her hand on the table, and stared coldly at Zhu Cheng:

"You came from Nanjing. How did you get here?"

Zhu Cheng's body trembled slightly. The woman swallowed hard, her throat dry, and Zhu Cheng slowly said:
"Train, take the train."

"When did you arrive? Where have you been hiding since you came to Shanghai?"

Zhang Sanjin looked at Zhu Cheng somewhat guiltily, hoping the kid wouldn't be stumped by his questions!
"I've been here for more than half a month, and I've been hiding near the black market on Fuzhou Road."

Hearing this, Miao Xue narrowed her eyes slightly, her voice becoming even colder:
"You're lying!"

Zhu Cheng visibly trembled, and Zhang Sanjin could hardly bear to watch.

"I didn't, everything I said is true."

Miao Xue chuckled and turned her gaze to Li Sibao:
"Sibao, continue the torture. He still seems quite stubborn!"

"No, no, I'm telling the truth! I have a list, a list!"

Li Sibao, who was initially excited by Miao Xue's words, became extremely displeased when he saw that the boy had actually confessed.

Zhang Sanjin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, "You're quick-witted, kid."

Miao Xue looked at Zhu Cheng, who had confessed all the information in one go, with a half-smile. After glancing at Zhang Sanjin, who was taking notes, Miao Xue continued:

“Now that we have the list, you’re no longer of any use to us, Fatty. Why don’t we give it to Si Bao to play with? Look, Si Bao’s been cooped up for ages.”

Li Sibao chuckled and looked at Miao Xue with immense gratitude.

Zhang Sanjin's face turned black, and Zhu Cheng almost cursed out loud, "This crazy woman, how can you do this?"
"Section Chief Miao, although he has confessed, we still don't know if this list is true or false. Let's arrest the people on the list first, what do you think, Section Chief Miao?"

Miao Xue crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair, her gaze mockingly fixed on Zhu Cheng, who was on the torture chair.
"So that means we don't know if what he recruited is real or fake. Li Sibao, let's continue. Didn't Little Fatty say that what he recruited might be fake?"

Zhang Sanjin could no longer hold back:
"Enough, Section Chief Miao! I'm the chief interrogator! I'll report this to the director. Besides, given Zhu Cheng's current condition, if we continue the interrogation, what if he dies in the interrogation room? How am I supposed to explain that to the director?"

Miao Xue glanced at Zhang Sanjin, then turned to look at Yang Huamei:
"Dr. Yang, can we conduct the trial?"

Yang Huamei is now certain that Zhu Cheng is definitely an imposter. Even if he isn't, his quick confession makes him a traitor!

Although the underground party was not as radical as the Kuomintang's military intelligence in dealing with traitors, it was absolutely ruthless.

“Section Chief Miao, I just checked him over. He only suffered minor injuries. If we continue the interrogation, we can intensify the efforts. Even if something unexpected happens during the interrogation, I can guarantee that he will survive.”

Upon hearing Yang Huamei's answer, not only was Zhu Cheng stunned, but Zhang Sanjin also opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Only Li Sibao's eyes lit up. Sure enough, those who were close to Section Chief Miao were all his good friends!

Miao Xue's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Piao Xue had also noticed the abnormality. That made sense. If her superior was an idiot, she would rather kill him with her own hands than give the enemy a chance!
"Little Fatty, you heard what Dr. Yang said too. Could it be that you have some compassion for the underground party?"

Oh shit!

Zhang Sanjin cursed inwardly, thinking he shouldn't have let this woman come with him for the interrogation.

Everyone in the intelligence department said Miao Xue was crazy, and Zhang Sanjin thought the rumors were a bit exaggerated. Now it seems that, sure enough, there's no smoke without fire!
Zhu Cheng looked at him with pleading eyes, and Zhang Sanjin said helplessly:
"Section Chief Miao, since they've already confessed, we can't be ungrateful. If we keep doing this, which underground party member will dare to join us in the future?"

"In short, today's gains have been substantial enough. I believe the director will be satisfied. I'll go report to the director now, and I'm sure he'll order the lifting of the ban soon."

"Section Chief Miao, what do you think?"

Miao Xue stood up and walked towards the door of the interrogation room:

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Little Fatty. I'll wait for your message in the office."

Watching Miao Xue leave, Zhang Sanjin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Dr. Yang, thank you for your hard work. You should go back to the infirmary now. I'll have someone call you if there are any problems."

Yang Huamei nodded slightly and left the interrogation room with a smile.

After sending away Li Sibao, who was still not satisfied, Zhu Cheng, sitting on the torture chair, finally couldn't hold back any longer:

"Fatty, who is that woman? She's so crazy! I almost died at her hands, she's so damn cruel!"

Zhang Sanjin raised his hand to rub his temples:

"She's a crazy woman, ignore her, but your performance today didn't go according to plan!"

Zhu Cheng was cursing inwardly, but he still nodded repeatedly.

Did I follow the plan? The problem is, you didn't follow the plan either!
"By the way, you said before that you suspected Dr. Yang had some problems?"

Zhu Cheng's lips twitched, and he shook his head repeatedly:

"No, I didn't! You must have misheard me!"

Zhu Cheng had just realized that Dr. Yang also wanted to kill him. The women in No. 76 were indeed a bunch of lunatics.

A few minutes later, in the director's office.

After hearing Zhang Sanjin's words, Ding Moqun looked at the fat man with a face full of black lines:
"The original plan was to get a confession in three days, but you got it out in just one night?"

Zhang Sanjin's smile was more like a grimace:

"Director, the plan was going smoothly at first, but... but Section Chief Miao doesn't play by the rules at all. I feel that as long as someone is sent to the interrogation room, Section Chief Miao is thinking of killing them. As for whether or not he can get any information out of them, I don't think Section Chief Miao cares at all."

"And that Dr. Yang, she's practically in cahoots with Section Chief Miao. Tonight she actually said that Zhu Cheng only suffered minor injuries, and with her around, any torture device could be used. Dr. Yang can guarantee that he won't die."

Ding Moqun stared at Zhang Sanjin, his temples throbbing.
"Didn't I tell you that even if Wang Yiya went with you to the interrogation, Miao Xue couldn't go? You've gone too far, and now you're trying to shirk responsibility!"

Zhang Sanjin lowered his head and dared not speak. Mainly, Zhang Sanjin had absolutely no good impression of Wang Yiya. For the past few days, Wang Yiya had treated him like a dog on a leash; anyone would be angry in that situation.

Then, seeing that Miao Xue seemed quite interested in the interrogation, Zhang Sanjin politely mentioned it, and Miao Xue took it seriously and went to the interrogation room.

Ding Moqun originally sent Wang Yiya over to continue testing her, but Zhang Sanjin, because he had a lot of opinions about Wang Yiya, actually did not carry out his order, which made Ding Moqun very angry.

After letting out a long breath, Ding Moqun stared intently at Zhang Sanjin:
"Alright, you've completed a three-day task in just one day. Now tell me, what's next?! What's next?!"

"The news hasn't spread yet, but you resolutely refuse to use the people who should be lured out, while you blindly shout about the people who shouldn't be used. What, do you really want to kill Zhu Cheng?"

Looking at the other transcript in his hand, Ding Moqun said with a sneer:

"Miao Xue is right, Zhang Sanjin, have you taken pity on the underground party members?"

Zhang Sanjin was almost in tears. He knew Ding Moqun was truly angry this time, but the die was cast, and Zhang Sanjin could only bite the bullet and say:

"Director, don't worry, I will carry out the plan according to the plan and ensure that there will be no more omissions."

Ding Moqun waved his hand; he didn't want to see Zhang Sanjin again for the next couple of days.

After Zhang Sanjin left, Ding Moqun leaned back in his chair, intending to take a nap, when the phone on his desk rang.

Jingle Bell--

Startled awake, Ding Moqun grabbed the phone:
"Hello, this is Ding Moqun!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Moqun immediately stood up from his chair, straightened his back, and replied with his head slightly bowed:
"Yes, I was careless this time. Thank you, sir, for pleading on my behalf. And thank you, Section Chief Lan Ze, for speaking up for me as well."

"Commander Kagesa, the plan we laid out earlier is already in progress. Rest assured, there will be absolutely no mistakes this time."

After hanging up the phone, Ding Moqun sat back down in his chair with a gloomy expression.

The matter at the Huamao Hotel has come to an end, and Ding Moqun has also come to a clear understanding.

The Japanese did not care as much about Tojo Jun's death as he had imagined; or rather, it seemed that the Japanese had long anticipated his death.

So this time, someone is targeting the Iwai Mansion, and this person has fooled almost everyone, even Kagesa.

Throughout this whole incident, Ding Moqun felt that only the original agency was the biggest winner, but now it seems that the biggest winner has become the Special Higher Police!

The Tojo family actually used half of their family resources and invested them all in Aizawa Keiko.

If it weren't for Kagesa's intervention, by tomorrow morning, No. 76 would have become a subordinate unit of the Special Higher Police again, only obeying the Special Higher Police's orders.

And that damned Green Gang, now it's back under the control of the Special Higher Police.

However, when they captured Sophia and her three companions from their original organization, they only managed to get a small share of the benefits when it came time to divide the responsibility and credit.

But the downfall of the Iwai Mansion had the greatest impact on the still-unestablished Mei Agency.

Ding Moqun broke out in a cold sweat when he thought about who was behind all this.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs orchestrated the whole thing and took all the credit, making the pie so big, only to have it all go to someone else in the end. If it were me, I'd probably be furious by now.

Therefore, the whole incident resulted in Iwai Ogawa taking the blame, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs bearing responsibility, and other participating departments sharing the credit.

Is it reasonable?
That makes perfect sense, because Ding Moqun has already realized that this incident is entirely a political struggle within the Japanese!

With the lockdown lifted, Miao Xue glanced at the time; it was almost dawn.

Miao Xue, who was just about to take a nap in the office, received a call from Ding Moqun.

"Miao Xue, you've worked hard. The list has been confirmed. The arrests in Nanjing have begun overnight. At noon, you will lead the team to meet the underground party members being escorted from Nanjing."

Miao Xue's lips curled into a mocking smile:
"Understood, Director."

After hanging up the phone, Miao Xue put her long legs on the desk, leaned back in her chair, and smiled as she thought.

They really went all out with their act!
On the other hand, after leaving Gongji Hospital, Dao Yan disguised herself and made her way to the Garden Restaurant on Rue Pétain.

Taking advantage of the previous chaos, Su Min and Huang Qingzhi have already returned, and Fang Hui, as a member of the Nightingale Group, naturally cannot come here again.

Seeing Dao Yan approach, Su Min and Huang Qingzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Fu Zhengguo was listening to the three reports when Dao Yan arrived. Fu Zhengguo said with a smile:

"Xiao Dao, from now on Su Min and Huang Qingzhi will be members of your group. Su Min's disguise skills are quite good. After Tequila, she is a perfect person to be your contact."

Dao Yan strode forward, her face as cold as ice as she looked at Fu Zhengguo:
"Deputy station chief, I have something I'd like to discuss with Su Min and Huang Qingzhi."

Fu Zhengguo understood what Dao Yan wanted to talk about:
"Xiao Dao, you must remember your identity. Marrying Zhao Xuan was only for your better infiltration, but he is still a traitor. You must understand that sooner or later you will have to confront him head-on."

Dao Yan nodded expressionlessly:
“I know, but my mission is not over. Zhao Xuan is still my target for defection. This time, Young Tiger got involved in the operation without reason. I don’t understand what the higher-ups are thinking. Since they made me Young Tiger’s subordinate, they should let me meet with Young Tiger.”

"But so far, I, as your subordinate, haven't even met Young Tiger. Su Min and Huang Qingzhi, haven't you two met him?"

Huang Qingzhi gave an awkward laugh, while Su Min shook her head and said:
“Team leader, I’m certain that Young Tiger disguised himself when he met us, so I don’t know his true identity. But one thing is certain: last night, Young Tiger entered my room through the ventilation duct and told me that my identity had been exposed and that I should leave.”

"I believe that Young Tiger has also communicated with you about the situation afterward."

"Doesn't this count as a meeting?"

Dao Yan chuckled. The young tiger had never shown itself to him before; he always had Tiger Girl convey his message.

His younger sister, in particular, kept the identity of the young tiger a closely guarded secret.

However, Su Min also provided an important piece of information: the young tiger actually found Su Min through the ventilation duct.

Zhao Xuan also left through the ventilation duct that night!
Thinking of this, Dao Yan felt an unbearable headache and disbelief.

She wasn't without doubts about Zhao Xuan's true identity, but Zhao Xuan's behavior had consistently made him a traitor.

Dao Yan simply couldn't believe that Zhao Xuan, who had spent every day with her and was intimately familiar with every inch of her skin and every strand of her hair, was actually a cub.

Because Zhao Xuan doesn't resemble him at all. Moreover, Zhao Xuan has an alibi many times when Young Tiger is on the move. Even in this explosion, if Zhao Xuan were Young Tiger, he would have no reason to blow himself up!
An explosion in a confined space leaves no chance of survival for those inside.

This is a judgment made by Dao Yan based on her own knowledge.

Therefore, if Zhao Xuan were truly a young tiger, he would have no reason to drag his enemies down with him.

It's not that Dao Yan looks down on Tojo Jun; in Dao Yan's eyes, Tojo Jun is simply not worth the young tiger doing this for.

Looking at Dao Yan's stubborn expression, Fu Zhengguo sighed:
"Go to the study next door and talk yourselves. You have ten minutes. I'll pick you up from here in ten minutes for your next task."

"Yes!"

The three saluted Fu Zhengguo and then entered the study not far away together.

In the study, Dao Yan's sharp gaze swept over Su Min and Huang Qingzhi.

"Are you sure the tiger cub entered through the ventilation duct?"

"Yes, I can guarantee that!"

After Su Min finished speaking confidently, Huang Qingzhi stood aside without saying a word, because he had no right to speak.

Young Tiger went to the seventh floor with Su Min to find him and Fang Hui and told them to evacuate. At that time, Su Min and Zhao Xuan did not go in through the ventilation duct.

"Was it confirmed that the tiger cub was camouflaged at the time?"

"No, based on my understanding of disguise, the young tiger didn't seem to be disguised, but it also seemed like it was completely disguised. I couldn't see any flaws, but it gave me a very strange feeling."

Dao Yan nodded slightly:
"Describe what the tiger cub was wearing at the time."

As Su Min recounted her story, Dao Yan was filled with doubt, because what Su Min said was completely different from the clothes Zhao Xuan was wearing when he entered the ventilation duct that night.

Originally, after hearing from Su Min that Youhu had gone to find her through the ventilation duct, Dao Yan even wondered if Youhu might be Zhao Xuan.

But now it seems that's not the case. After all, it's impossible that Zhao Xuan hid his clothes in the ventilation duct beforehand and then changed them inside, right?

If that were the case, the clothes that had been changed could always be found somewhere. However, the military police and the Special Higher Police searched the ventilation ducts and even turned the Cathay Hotel upside down, but they found nothing.

Furthermore, based on Su Min's description, Dao Yan could confirm that Zhao Xuan did not possess such clothing.

At home, Zhao Xuan's clothes were mostly bought by Dao Yan, so Dao Yan remembered exactly what styles of clothes Zhao Xuan had, and even how many sets of clothes he had.

In other words, Zhao Xuan is not a young tiger?
After making this judgment, Dao Yan felt inexplicably disappointed, but also seemed relieved.

After all, if it's confirmed today that Zhao Xuan is indeed the young tiger, then Dao Yan would really want to kill him.

She had entrusted everything to that guy, but Zhao Xuan was still keeping it from her, and doing so well about it. What was he trying to do?
Moreover, if Zhao Xuan is truly a cub, then it means that even his own sister knows, but he himself doesn't. Heh, if that's the case, Dao Yan will definitely let these two traitors know why the flowers are so red!

(Zhao Xuan: Check out Nano Mode's one-click outfit change feature!)

"Okay, I understand. I've asked all the questions I needed to ask. Now it's your turn. Su Min, your disguise is indeed quite good. At least right now, I can't see any trace of you from when you were Li Xiangjun's assistant at the Huamao Hotel."

Su Min smiled:
"This is your last trump card, team leader, so you've agreed to let us be your team members?"
