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

Chapter 309 The Bottom of the Cauldron
If they go out this time and their belongings are stolen, and the female thief, without paying attention, throws away anything other than the money, Tu Feiyuan can't afford the consequences.

Moreover, even if Doiyu died during the spread of the virus at that time, his family would be disgraced.

For the Tu-Fei-Yuan family, this disgrace was the most fatal blow.

Sure enough, the greater the potential for success, the higher the risk.

This time, in particular, the greatest risk actually came from within, which makes Tu Feiyuan break out in a cold sweat every time he thinks about it.

"Michiko, pass down the order: starting tomorrow, the reconstruction of the Sheshan Research Institute will be carried out in three shifts. I want to complete this reconstruction ahead of schedule and get those two plagues out as soon as possible!"

Michiko was overjoyed and immediately nodded:

"Yes, I'll give the order right away!"

Inside the office of the head of the Special Higher Police Section on Wusong Road.

What happened today was not only that the people from the original organization were anxious, but also that when Aizawa Keiko learned of the news, she almost stormed into the original organization to confront that fat, ugly man.

Fortunately, the items were recovered without any damage. At this moment, Aizawa Keiko's goodwill towards those two so-called experts plummeted to rock bottom.

Zhao Xuan's guess was not only true, but it almost led to a major disaster.

Today, when I went to see Kyoko Watanabe, Keiko Aizawa had just finished telling her about this when Kyoko Watanabe immediately got angry.

If it weren't for a last-minute message from Kyogoku that the item had been found, Watanabe Kyoko would have almost taken everyone with her away from Shanghai immediately.

Although the matter has been resolved, Aizawa Keiko is still feeling lingering fear.

Seeing Dao Yan and Wang Yiya arrive so late, Lan Zehui rubbed her temples.
"Dao Yan, Deputy Section Chief Wang, what brings you here so late?"

Dao Yan looked at the worried Lan Ze Huizi and comforted her:
"We just learned about what happened at the original organization, but fortunately it didn't cause an irreparable situation."

"Therefore, Section Chief Lan Ze doesn't need to worry too much. I believe the original organization won't make the same mistake again."

Aizawa Keiko nodded with a wry smile; the events of the day had truly terrified her.

If they were to be overwhelmed by a virus created by their own people, Aizawa Keiko would feel speechless and ashamed just thinking about it.

Shanghai is such an important city. If it were to become a dead city because of just two people from the Ishii unit, Aizawa Keiko couldn't even imagine the devastating impact it would have on the current battle situation.

"You're right. This matter has happened and been resolved. There's no point in thinking about it too much now. However, regarding the meeting with the original departments tomorrow, I hope that No. 76 can prioritize the overall situation."

Dao Yan nodded and smiled:

"Don't worry, Keiko. Your uncle will definitely support the decision made by the Special Higher Police at tomorrow's meeting, and the Military Police Headquarters will not ignore the danger."

Aizawa Keiko laughed. As long as she could get that dangerous thing out of Shanghai after the meeting tomorrow, everything would be fine.

That kind of thing shouldn't even exist in Shanghai.

"Alright, Dao Yan, Deputy Section Chief Wang, you didn't come to see me at this hour just to offer a few words of comfort, did you?"

Dao Yan smiled and shook her head, giving Wang Yiya a meaningful look.

Wang Yiya sat upright, looking at Lan Zehuizi, and said in a serious tone:

"Chief Lan Ze, the reconnaissance and coverage operations that our 76th Telecommunications Section has been conducting in cooperation with your Special Higher Police in the past few days have not yielded satisfactory results so far. I think we should change our reconnaissance direction."

“The coverage of the radio truck is limited, and although we have a large number of radio trucks, it is still difficult to cover all areas outside the French Concession.”

"Most importantly, the business radio stations in Shanghai have been very active recently, which has seriously interfered with our investigation. Therefore, I think that instead of continuous investigation, we should conduct targeted and unscheduled surprise investigations. In this way, we can reduce our workload a lot and may also achieve unexpected results."

Looking at the map on the table, Lan Zehuizi realized that although the reconnaissance operation over the past few days had been meticulous and covered a wide area, just as Wang Yiya had said, they had not obtained much valuable intelligence.

However, targeted and unpredictable detection might actually yield the results she wants unexpectedly.

Lan Zehui smiled at this, and Wang Yiya's suggestion was indeed very constructive.

However, through this reconnaissance operation, Aizawa Keiko also confirmed that there must still be underground party members or Kuomintang agents lurking in No. 76.

Otherwise, their investigation would not have been completely fruitless.

Could it be that the Military Intelligence Bureau and the underground Communist Party members no longer need radios?
That's absolutely impossible. Therefore, the Kuomintang secret police and the underground Communist Party must have known the coverage area of ​​the radio truck and its reconnaissance route before they could conduct radio operations in the coverage blind spots.

Thinking of this, Lan Zehui smiled at Wang Yiya:

“Deputy Section Chief Wang is right. The next phase of the investigation will proceed as you suggested. We will proceed as planned tomorrow.”

Wang Yiya's heart skipped a beat. Looking at Lan Zehuizi's ambiguous smile, she wondered if Lan Zehuizi had discovered something amiss.
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission."

Aizawa Keiko stood up with a smile:

"Alright, if there's nothing else, let's go. It's time to get some rest after get off work."

A dozen minutes later, Dao Yan and Lan Ze Huizi returned to the apartment area together.

"Dao Yan, would you like to sit here for a while?"

Dao Yan glanced at the brightly lit house, knowing that Xiao Ya had returned, and smiled, shaking her head.

"No, it seems Xiaoya is back, and it's getting late. I'm afraid that girl will be scared if she's home alone."

Aizawa Keiko covered her mouth and smiled:
"Indeed, that little devil is fearless, but he's afraid of some ghost stories and legends. By the way, after the meeting tomorrow, you and Xiaoya wait for me near the military police headquarters. We'll go to the hospital together."

Seeing Dao Yan nod, Lan Ze Huizi walked towards her second villa.

Inside Villa No. 3, Dao Ya, who was sitting on the sofa looking at the planning map, heard the door open. She slowly turned the map over before turning to look at the doorway.

"Sis, you're back! Why are you so late today?"

Dao Yan hung her handbag and coat on the coat rack by the door, changed her shoes, and walked into the living room. Seeing that Dao Ya hadn't eaten any snacks and that there was a blueprint on the coffee table in front of her, she sat down on the sofa and asked, staring at Dao Ya:
"You've been waiting for me. So, what's up?"

Dao Ya pressed one hand on the blueprint, her gaze fixed on Dao Yan:
"We have received intelligence that a cargo ship fully loaded with raw materials for making poison gas bombs will dock at the Shiliupu Wharf at 6 p.m. tomorrow. That thing must be destroyed."

Dao Yan looked at Dao Ya with a serious expression:
"The tiger cub is back?"

Daoya grinned:
"No, that's why this task was assigned to me."

"It's yours!!"

Dao Yan jumped up from the sofa, exclaimed in surprise, and then slowly sat back down.

"Tomorrow, the Special Higher Police will convene an emergency meeting with the Military Police Headquarters Intelligence Department, the former headquarters, and 76. The meeting will start around 3 p.m., during which time it should be safe to plan the operation. I don't need to attend the meeting, so is there anything I can do to help you?"

Daoya nodded, turned the drawing over, pointed to one of the points, and said:

"The meeting starts at three o'clock, so I only have one morning to plan the operation."

"Sister, this time is very important. A group of people must be waiting here before 4 PM tomorrow. Around 4:10 PM, a cargo ship will pass by. Let those people board the ship. After the cargo ship docks at the Shiliupu Wharf, find a way to board the cargo ship next door and plant the explosives I have prepared on the cargo ship."

"After the explosives are installed, the cargo ship will leave the Shiliupu Wharf at around 5:30. After leaving, sail the cargo ship to this channel as soon as possible and wait for the target to appear."

Dao Yan's pupils contracted slightly as she looked at Dao Ya in disbelief:
"So, if I agree to your request, the people I've arranged will die!?"

Dao Ya stroked her chin, pondered for a few seconds with a serious expression, and then said:
"Yes, they have to die. Of course, this is Plan Two. If Plan One succeeds, then Plan Two won't be needed. If not, this is the only way."

What is Project One?

Seeing that Dao Ya remained silent, Dao Yan frowned:

"You don't even trust your own sister?"

After folding the blueprints, Dao Ya pushed them onto the coffee table in front of Dao Yan:
"Whether you do it or not is up to you, sister. I'm just giving instructions. Of course, it doesn't matter if the operation fails."

Dao Yan took a deep breath:

"When did you start to value human life so little?"

Dao Ya looked at Dao Yan without changing her expression:
"Sister, sacrifices are inevitable in our line of work. You don't have to agree, and I'm not saying you have to follow my plan."

"It's getting late, sister, I'm going to bed now. Of course, if you've decided that they haven't seen the ship by tomorrow, then it means I've executed Plan Number One, and they don't need to do anything anymore!"

Seeing that Dao Ya still had the mind to sleep after making such an arrangement, Dao Yan really wanted to chase after her and ask if this was how You Hu taught her to do things.

After taking a deep breath, Dao Yan did not act impulsively. Instead, she picked up the blueprint, unfolded it, and examined it carefully.

The more Dao Yan looked at the blueprints, the more alarmed she became.

Based on the blueprints, Dao Yan was certain that the success rate of the entire Project No. 2 was as high as 80%.

Almost every step is a precise calculation.

It has to be said that Dao Yan hesitated after seeing the blueprints.

If Daoya's intelligence is correct, imagine the damage that ship full of raw materials could cause to future wars if left untreated.

If executed according to plan, it would be a case of gaining the greatest benefit with the least casualties.

This left Dao Yan in a very difficult position.

To execute or not to execute?

Furthermore, after reading the plan, Dao Yan became even more interested in Dao Ya's Plan Number One.

If a backup plan has at least an 80% success rate, what about Plan One?

That night, Dao Yan couldn't sleep at all. The next day, when Dao Ya got up, she didn't see her sister, and her sister hadn't even prepared breakfast.

Daoya looked around and confirmed that her sister had left, taking her blueprints with her.

Dao Ya's lips curled slightly; the first step of the plan was going smoothly.

Jingle Bell--

The phone rang, and Dao Ya quickly walked to the sofa cabinet and picked it up:
"Xiao Ai, they agreed? Okay, I'll be there right now. Have you had breakfast? I'll bring you some. Okay, that's all."

After hanging up the phone, Dao Ya took two deep breaths. It was impossible for her not to be nervous about carrying out such an important mission for the first time.

Moreover, today's negotiations are crucial for the long term, making Dao Ya even more excited and nervous.

At 7:30 a.m., in Hongkou District, at the intersection of Huangdu Road, Dongjiangwan Road, and Sichuan North Road, lies a building that resembles a warship.

This was Daoya's first time visiting this place.

As soon as she got off the bus, Daoya, carrying breakfast, saw Sato Ai waiting for her at the entrance of the earthen-yellow building.

The place that Toa and Sato Ai came to was the headquarters of the Japanese Navy's Special Landing Force.

"Xiaoya, you're finally here!"

Sato Ai happily ran forward, grabbed Toa's hand, and beamed with joy.

Behind Sato Ai was a middle-aged man wearing a Japanese Navy uniform.

Sato Ai quickly introduced to Toa:

"Xiaoya, this is my uncle, Lieutenant Colonel Sato Osamu. I asked him to arrange this gathering today."

Upon hearing this, Daoya bowed slightly to Sato Osamu:
"Hello Uncle Sato, my name is Toya."

Osamu Sato laughed heartily:
"Xiaoya, I often hear Xiaoai mention you. You've done a great job. Let's go in quickly, don't keep my two best friends waiting."

In the dining hall on the first floor of the Marine Corps headquarters, there were only two middle-aged men in naval uniforms sitting by the window.

Upon seeing Sato Osamu arrive with two little girls, the two exchanged a glance and their brows furrowed tightly.

"Mr. Fan, Mr. Toyota, let me introduce you. This is my niece, Ai Sato, and this is her business partner, Ms. Toa."

Iitaro and Toyoda Jiro nodded slightly, clearly not taking the two of them seriously at all.

Sato Osamu smiled upon seeing this. He had anticipated this situation long ago, after receiving Sato Ai's call and agreeing to Sato Ai's request.

"Xiao Ai, Xiao Ya, these two are the officers of the Naval Naval Administration Headquarters, Colonel Iitaro and Colonel Toyoda Jiro."

Daoya and Sato Ai bowed slightly to the two of them. Daoya smiled and said:

"Uncle Iitaro, Uncle Toyota, hello. It's a pleasure to meet you both. I don't know what you like. This is just a small gift, please accept it as a token of my appreciation."

As she spoke, Daoya handed the breakfast to Sato Ai, and then took out two documents from her handbag and gave them to Iitaro and Toyota Jiro.

The two chuckled and took the item with a nonchalant air, intending to just glance at it casually, but that one glance was enough to keep them glued to their eyes.

Last night, after Dao Ya had Chen Manli take Jiang Xiaoyue away, she went to find Sato Ai.

He discussed a big business deal with Ai Sato, but he needed the help of the Japanese Navy.

Knowing that this business could make a lot of money and that the channels were stable, they could receive a steady stream of income.

Sato Ai had no reason to refuse, so she contacted Sato Osamu that very night and inquired about people within the Navy who urgently needed money and whether they had any connections to obtain it.

Sato Osamu acted extremely quickly, soon identifying his targets as Iitaro and Toyoda Jiro.

Meanwhile, in the mess hall of the Marine Corps Headquarters, Sato Osamu was also looking at Iitaro and Toyota Jiro with great curiosity. What was it that made the two of them unable to look away after seeing it?
A few minutes later, Iitaro and Toyoda Jiro both took a breath and quickly looked up at Toa, Sato Ai, and Sato Osamu.

"We apologize for our rudeness. Please, all of you, have a seat."

"Miss Daoya, Miss Sato Ai, are these two items genuine?"

Dao Ya just showed the two of them an order form and a shipping order.

Dao Ya smiled serenely and nodded slightly as she looked at the two of them.

"Uncles, let's put the order aside for now. I'm sure you've already seen the shipping manifest. I can guarantee that as long as you can provide a stable transportation channel and ensure safety during the transportation process, we will pay you 20% of the goods' value as a toll for each shipment."

Upon hearing this, Iitaro's breathing became heavy.

He desperately needs money right now!
Because he is getting a promotion in public relations and needs a large sum of money to smooth things over with various channels.

Jiro Toyoda's situation was similar. Although he didn't need as much money as Iitaro, it was still a considerable sum.

Moreover, time waits for no one, and opportunities don't wait for anyone. If they miss this chance, who knows when they'll be able to get promoted.

In addition, the navy is currently gaining momentum, and there are many people who want to climb to high positions. They are not lacking in opportunities, but rather in the capital to pave the way for those opportunities.

That's why Iitaro and Toyoda Jiro were unusually excited after seeing the two documents that Toa casually tossed out.

After hearing Toa's words, Iitarou quickly shook his head:
"Hey, Xiaoya, since you call me uncle, then I won't stand on ceremony and will just call you Xiaoya, okay?"

Jiro Toyoda nodded quickly:
"That's right, that's what I meant too."

Daoya and Sato Ai exchanged a knowing glance, then replied with beaming smiles:
"It is our honor that the two uncles can approve of us."

Iitaro burst into laughter:
"My two nieces, you don't need to be so polite."

"Actually, I'm more interested in this order than the shipping channels. What do you need so much hydrogen chloride for? And the price you're offering is so high!"

If they take on this order, they can make up for 30-40% of their funding shortfall at once.

This money can be used entirely for initial public relations, and the rest can be made up gradually through subsequent collaborations.

Sato Ai was a little confused as to why Daoya needed so much hydrogen chloride, but Daoya had explained it to her last night.

Smuggling and trafficking is not a long-term solution. Although it is a business with no initial investment, too much money is distributed among the dealers, and Sato Ai always feels a pang of heartache when it comes to distributing the profits.

Even though it was the sisters who did the work and labor, the majority of the profits went to the military police headquarters.

Later, the Special Higher Police also joined in, and the conditions were much more lenient than those of the Military Police Headquarters, but the amount of money they could get was still not much.

Last night, after Daoya told Sato Ai that she could get a batch of equipment to process hydrogen chloride and synthesize cyanuric chloride, Sato Ai was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night.

Many people may not know what cyanuric chloride is used for. To put it simply, cyanuric chloride, which is extracted from hydrogen chloride, has a wide range of applications.

It can be used not only to produce pesticides, herbicides, reactive dyes and fluorescent dyes, but also to synthesize resins, rubber, explosives and other products.

As for the equipment for refining cyanuric chloride, Dao Ya obtained an improvement plan from Zhao Xuan.

The equipment needed is not difficult to purchase; the challenge lies in how to improve it to significantly increase the conversion rate of hydrogen chloride to cyanuric chloride.

Zhao Xuan didn't have much else, but he could easily get these things by asking Edith.

Having confirmed this, Daoya devised a plan to strike at the heart of the problem.

That's right, Daoya never intended to blow up the cargo ship.

Even the plan she gave to her older sister last night was just the one that Daoya had scrapped from all her plans.

Of course, the explosives were fake.

Even if today's negotiations fail, Daoya has another plan she can implement.

As for why we gave Dao Yan a seemingly plausible plan, it's all because Dao Ya is petty and wants to get revenge on her sister. She's never a match for her sister in a fight, so let's play mind games with her!

Moreover, given Dao Yan's intelligence, Dao Ya believed that her sister would realize what was happening after today.

Therefore, Dao Ya doesn't plan to go back to see her sister for the next two days. Otherwise, it would be unseemly for her sister to be defeated in a fit of rage. What Dao Ya wants is for Dao Yan to be unable to find her and to be filled with impotent rage. Just thinking about it is exciting!

Then, Dao Ya revealed that she wanted to extract cyanuric chloride.

This kind of thing can't be hidden at all, and Daoya doesn't want to hide it either. Besides, she and Sato Ai still need to sell the extracted products through the Japanese Navy's channels, so there's nothing to hide.

This is Dao Ya's plan to undermine the city's defenses; she wants to prevent all hydrogen chloride from entering Shanghai by sea.

As for the possibility of entering by land later, I'm sorry, Daoya has also considered that.

If they can cooperate with the Navy, why can't they cooperate with the Army? Besides, Toa and Sato Ai have more experience cooperating with the Army.

Without hydrogen chloride in the materials used to manufacture poison gas bombs, and without the means to extract hydrogen chloride, what can you do even if you have a research institute?
Make bricks without straw!

As for whether the research institute will conduct human experiments, that's not something Daoya needs to worry about; naturally, someone will target the research institute.

Therefore, Dao Ya's way of thinking is really different from everyone else's.

While the others were only thinking about destroying the ship full of raw materials, Daoya wanted to prevent the most important ingredient from falling into the hands of the research institute at the source.

Moreover, since the partner is the Japanese Navy, there is absolutely no need to worry about whether doing so will displease the people sent by the Ishii unit or the Sheshan Research Institute.

After all, the conflict between the Japanese Navy and Army has been going on for a long time. So what? You bring things in by sea, and our Navy checks them for safety reasons. It's normal for there to be some damage during the inspection process. If the Army is not happy about it, come and bite us!

"So, as long as we can get hydrogen chloride or the raw materials for refining hydrogen chloride, our order will be valid. I wonder if you two uncles have such channels?"
