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

Chapter 339 Deciphering
Seeing Zhao Xuan's face gradually darken, Lan Zehuizi realized that she had been too excited just now.

After all, she had planned to give up on the Female Ai Project, but now that she was about to get it back, she was so excited that she forgot about the impact this would have on Dao Ya.

"Ah Xuan, I guarantee that no one outside of the three of us will hear about Xiao Ya's situation."

At this point, Aizawa Keiko's piercing gaze swept over Murakami Yua.

Yua was startled and quickly swore an oath:

“I swear in the name of Tianhuang that if I ever speak of this, I will die a horrible death.”

Although both of them made promises, Zhao Xuan still had to continue acting.
"This is outrageous! Keiko, you can't keep indulging Xiaoya like this. Today she dares to trick the Navy, what about tomorrow? She's going to cause a huge uproar!"

"What if the Navy finds out about this?"

Aizawa Keiko quickly stepped forward:
"Don't worry, Ah Xuan, Xiao Ya will be fine. Even if the navy finds out, I can guarantee it!"

Zhao Xuan sighed and said with a solemn expression:

"Keiko, Yua, I'm counting on you this time."

“Tonight, Huizi, you’re coming back with me. Xiaoya can’t go on like this. When I teach Xiaoya a lesson, you have to show her your attitude, otherwise she’ll think you can cover for her in everything.”

Aizawa Keiko's lips twitched. Actually, she thought Xiaoya had done a great job.

But seeing how angry Zhao Xuan was, Lan Zehuizi still nodded and agreed for the time being.

"Okay, I'll go back with you tonight. I haven't seen Dao Yan for quite a few days."

"But the most important thing now is to go to Citibank and find out the information from the watch. Even if we can't open the safe, we're not afraid of Zhenxingqi Society at Citibank. If they dare to make a move, we'll take them down directly!"

"Moreover, to open such a safe, you need not only a combination but also two keys. Right now, all we have is the safe's serial number and the combination represented by the hands of our watch."

Yua Murakami nodded. She also felt that the position where the watch hands stopped should be the safe's combination, but since they didn't have the key, they could only wait and see.

Shanghai, French Concession, Cathay Hotel.

Tu Feiyuan was completely dumbfounded. Had Hu Taoze received it? Yes!

However, the most important thing in Hu Taoze's hands was taken away by Haixi.

In apartment 501, Tu Feiyuan and Hu Taoze were staring at each other, both panting heavily, looking quite angry.

Even Michiko Sakai looked at Masashi Kurumizawa in disbelief, unable to understand, simply unable to understand, what kind of bizarre operation the Navy was making.
"So you mean, the Navy said you were carrying dangerous items through their garrisoned area, and then the items were not only confiscated, but also sent to the Special Higher Police, with the Technical Section in charge of their safekeeping?"

Kurumizawa nodded, his lips twitching. At least, this was what the Navy had told him directly.

What's most infuriating is that those horse-drawn carriages in the navy actually suspected that their clothes might also carry the virus due to excessive contact with it, so they were all confiscated, sealed, and sent to the Special Higher Police.

Damn it, Hu Taoze used up all the swear words he could muster in his life in just two hours today.

But the navy guys wouldn't listen to reason, telling him that if he wanted his things back, he should go to the Special Higher Police to inquire.

"When did the Navy and the Special Higher Police get such a good relationship?"

Michiko Sakai sighed with a wry smile.

Fortunately, the items are still there, but they've ended up in the hands of the Special Higher Police, so it's not a big deal.

After all, the things that Kasahara Heiji and Karasawa Saburo brought back are now kept by the Special Higher Police. Have you seen Doiyu Makoto mention them even once?
That thing, Doi-Yu Ma would love to hand over to the Special Higher Police. Keeping it in his own hands is like an unstable bomb that could explode at any time.

After taking a deep breath, Doiyuu's thoughts aligned with those of Sakai Michiko.

As for viruses, Tu Feiyuan will not allow them to enter the original organization now.

Moreover, now that the virus in Kurumizawa's possession is gone, we have a good reason to bring him back. Didn't you want to see Kasahara Heihei and Karasawa Saburo? Okay, come back with me to see them.

Hu Taoze clenched his fists. He had to get the item back, so he had to go to the original organization.

"Mr. Doi-Yuan, that sample is very important to the Empire, so please be sure to get it back from the Special Higher Police."

"Also, Shinichi, who came back with me, had his father's belongings, which were packed up by the Navy and sent to the Special Higher Police. If possible, please help Shinichi retrieve his belongings as well!"

Doi-Yuan nodded. As long as Kurumi was returning to the original organization with him, everything else was a minor matter.

Of course, he would only help retrieve that sample after the Special Higher Police confirmed it was safe. Otherwise, whatever, my original agency would never allow such a dangerous thing to enter again.

Immediately, Doi-man arranged for someone to contact the Special Higher Police, indicating that he wanted to discuss the matter with Aizawa Keiko. At the same time, Sakai Michiko was also considering countermeasures. She knew that if this matter was not handled properly, it could cause fluctuations in the delicate relationship between the Navy and the Special Higher Police, thereby affecting the entire situation.

Shortly after, Doi-man received a reply: Aizawa Keiko agreed to the meeting, which would take place in the Special Higher Police's conference room at 3 p.m. today.

At this time, Lan Zehui and Zhao Xuan had already taken people to Citibank.

As expected, that watch was definitely from Zhenxingqi Society.

Without the key, Lan Zehui and Zhao Xuan were unable to open the safe.

Originally, Aizawa Keiko intended to stay there and wait for the rabbit to come to her, but coincidentally, Kishimoto Osamu sent a piece of information from the intelligence department, saying that a guy named Naji Shinichi had actually been sent to the Huamao Hotel along with Kurumizawa Masashi.

The Zhenxingqi Society also did not choose to take action at the French Concession dock. After hearing this information, Zhao Xuan and Lan Zehui immediately confirmed that Na Zhixin was Na Xin of the Zhenxingqi Society.

Since Shin and Kurumizawa were together and Shin cared a lot about the watch, he decided to go to the Special Higher Police with Kurumizawa to retrieve it.

So Lan Zehui and Zhao Xuan returned from Citibank with their men.

However, during this trip, Zhao Xuan also confirmed that the new item stored at Citibank was the "Female Ai Project".

After Edith's scanning and analysis, Zhao Xuan has obtained all the contents of the Female Ai Project, but it is encrypted, and Zhao Xuan cannot decipher it for the time being.

Shortly after Aizawa Keiko and Zhao Xuan returned to the Special Higher Police Department with their men, they received a call from Doiyuu.

This further convinced the two that Shinichi Naji was indeed Shinichi, and that his watch probably held other secrets.

After hanging up the phone, Lan Zehuizi frowned slightly and looked at Zhao Xuan:
"Ah Xuan, something's not right. Could Na Xin from Zhenxingqi Society be a traitor?"

Zhao Xuan looked at Lan Ze Huizi in surprise. To be honest, after Lan Ze Huizi's reminder, Zhao Xuan also felt that Xin was a traitor.

Otherwise, since the items are already at Citibank, the people from Zhenxingqi Society shouldn't have left them there instead of retrieving them.

Moreover, at the dock, the people from the Shinsei Banner Society did not take action to snatch Na Shin back, but allowed Doi-Yuan's men to take Kurumizawa Masashi and Na Shin away from the navy.

Logically speaking, the Zhenxingqi Society has been preparing for so long, they shouldn't be showing weakness and not daring to take action at this time.

The only explanation is that the Zhenxingqi Society also noticed something was wrong.

Or rather, the person they really wanted to take over wasn't that new person.

Of course, these are all just Zhao Xuan's guesses.

"Huizi, your guess is actually quite possible."

"However, we do not have enough information at the moment to draw a conclusion."

Aizawa Keiko let out a soft sigh and voiced another guess that had been on her mind:

“Ah Xuan, do you think it’s possible that the people from Zhenxingqi Society didn’t know they had something stored at Citibank, or that even if they did know, they didn’t know the location, the password, or that the people from Zhenxingqi Society didn’t even have the key to the safe?”

Zhao Xuan swallowed hard. Lan Zehui's guess was getting more and more outrageous, but Zhao Xuan felt as if he was getting closer and closer to the truth.

Following Aizawa Keiko's train of thought, Zhao Xuan actually discovered the key point.

Na Xin has definitely betrayed us, or perhaps Na Xin was never a member of the Zhenxingqi Society in the first place.

As for which side they belong to, we'll find out when we meet them.

If that new guy is a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau, that's impossible. If he were a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau, Dao Yan wouldn't still not have received the news by now.

If this is the case, then Xin is most likely a member of the underground party. Otherwise, why would Xin store the items in Citibank? Wouldn't it have been safer to hand them over directly to the Zhenxingqi Society?

"Huizi, perhaps you are right, but we'll have to wait until we meet the person to discuss these things."

Half an hour later, Doi-man arrived at the Special Higher Police Department with Kurumizawa Masashi, Naji Shinichi, and others. Along the way, Kurumizawa Masashi was extremely anxious and repeatedly urged Doi-man to bring the items back.

Doi-man was extremely annoyed. If the Special Higher Police's Technical Division confirmed that there was a problem with that thing, Doi-man would never help Kurumizawa get it back, no matter what.

Upon arriving at the Special Higher Police Division, Doi-man, Kurumizawa Masashi, Sakai Michiko, and Naji Shinichi were led into the conference room.

Lan Zehui and Zhao Xuan were already waiting there.

As soon as the person entered, Zhao Xuan immediately activated Edith Dialysis Mode and Scanning Mode.

The scan results were exactly as predicted; Shinichi Nachi's real name was indeed Nachi.

(Na Xin, male, 35 years old, from China, former member of Zhenxingqi Society, outstanding underground party member, has been working undercover in Zhenxingqi Society to assist in the completion of the female AIDS plan.)

Assist in completing the Women with HIV/AIDS Project!

Upon seeing the scan results, Zhao Xuan had already made up his mind.

It seems that the plan was previously in the hands of the new assistant, but now that everything is in his possession, it means that the new assistant either met with an accident or was killed by him. As for the watch, it probably wasn't the new father's keepsake, but rather belonged to the person he was assisting.

After exchanging pleasantries, Doi-man spoke first: "Section Chief Aizawa, among the items the Navy sent this time are important samples carried by Kurumizawa Masayuki, as well as the belongings of his entourage. I wonder if they can be returned?"

Lan Zehui smiled slightly, glanced at Zhao Xuan, and then said, "Mr. Doiyuu, our technical department is testing the sample. At present, the activity is not high and the danger is not significant, but to be on the safe side, we still need to observe it further. As for the relics, we also need to confirm the specific situation."

Zhao Xuan added at the opportune moment, "Mr. Doiyuu, we understand your needs, but the Special Higher Police are accepting these items to ensure the safety of Shanghai. We hope you can understand our work process."

Hu Taoze couldn't help but say, "Section Chief Lan Ze, Mr. Zhao, this sample is of vital importance to the Empire. Please return it as soon as possible."

Aizawa Keiko raised her chin slightly, her gaze sweeping over Kurumizawa Masashi: "Kurumizawa Masashi, we also value this very much, but we cannot easily entrust it to you until we are completely certain of its safety. After all, what happened at the former organization last time still leaves us with lingering fears."

Tufeiyuan sensed the underlying meaning in Aizawa Keiko's words and understood that this matter couldn't be rushed, so he said, "Section Chief Aizawa is absolutely right, safety comes first. I just wonder when we'll have the test results?"

After a moment's thought, Aizawa Keiko said, "It will be tomorrow at the earliest. We will notify you as soon as the test results are available."

Tu Feiyuan had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Hu Taoze looked unwilling, but he could only endure it for the time being.

Following behind the two, Shin, standing next to Michiko Sakai, also remained silent. The Special Higher Police didn't even give face to Doi-Yuan, so even if he spoke, the result would be the same.

However, when the relics were mentioned, Zhao Xuan had Edith activate dialysis mode to clearly detect the new psychological activity.

The watch was indeed not new; it belonged to a member of the Zhenxingqi Society named Jin Jie.

As for how the watch ended up in the newbie's hands, Zhao Xuan had no idea.

Now, Zhao Xuan is certain that the position where the watch's hands have stopped is not the so-called combination to open the safe, but rather...
A bold guess arose in Zhao Xuan's mind.

Zhao Xuan immediately had Edith recall the female Ai plan that she had scanned from the Citibank safe in his mind, and then interpret it in the order of the hands of the hour, minute, and second.

Soon, Zhao Xuan discovered that the hours, minutes, and seconds were represented by the numbers indicated by the sixty divisions on the dial.

The hands stopped at 3:12:47.

Take the three, twelve, four, and seventeenth characters from the first page of the Female Ai Project.

Acquire the Three Kingdoms, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Romance of the Three Kingdoms in sequence!

This is the codebook!?
Zhao Xuan was somewhat convinced.

(Edith, you should be able to retrieve the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms here, right?)

(Yes, sir.)
As soon as Edith finished speaking, the contents of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms appeared in Zhao Xuan's mind, and Edith had already begun to decipher the contents of the Female Ai Project starting from the second page.

As Edith's carefully prepared text appeared, Zhao Xuan would have given Jin Jie a thumbs up for executing the plan, if the occasion hadn't been inappropriate.

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is indeed a codebook. Each page contains a name, code name, method of awakening, contact code, and a brief biography of the person.

This shows how much effort Jin Jie put into compiling this list.

After Zhao Xuan finished all that, Tu Feiyuan couldn't stay any longer. Now he just wanted to bring Hu Taoze back to the original organization as soon as possible to ensure his safety.

Afterwards, the two chatted about some trivial matters, and then Doiyu got up to say goodbye.

Back at the original office, Doiyuu comforted Kurumizawa, "Don't worry, let's wait for the test results tomorrow and then figure out how to get the items back." Kurumizawa gritted his teeth and secretly vowed to get the samples and belongings back no matter what.

Meanwhile, in the Special Higher Police Section, Zhao Xuan and Lan Ze Huizi were also discussing countermeasures.

Aizawa Keiko asked, "Ah Xuan, do you think Tu Feiyuan will give up so easily?"

Zhao Xuan sneered: "He definitely won't give up, but we can't just hand it over to him easily. We haven't fully figured out the secret behind that watch yet, and we absolutely can't let them disrupt our plans."

Aizawa Keiko nodded in agreement: "Yes, let's see how things go after the test results come out tomorrow. What should we do if Doiyuu puts pressure on us?"

After all, Kurumizawa Masashi had a name on the cabinet, and now that the Special Higher Police had seized his belongings, Doi Masashi could really put pressure on the Special Higher Police through the cabinet.

Zhao Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "We'll see how things go. If it really doesn't work, we'll exaggerate the danger of the virus samples to make them back down. As for the relics, we can use the excuse that we're still confirming their nature to buy time. In short, we must not let them take anything away before we figure out the information about the Female Ai Project."

Aizawa Keiko still didn't want to give up her plan of lurking in the shadows. Not long after seeing Doi-Yuan and the others off, Aizawa Keiko sent Yama Yuichi to stake out the location.

As for Zhao Xuan, seeing that it was already five o'clock, Zhao Xuan, who never worked overtime, looked at Lan Zehuizi:

“Huizi, let’s go back together. Ayan is already preparing dinner. Ayan has also informed Xiaoya. Tonight, you can’t favor Xiaoya anymore. If this continues, I’m afraid she’ll really cause a big mess.”

Aizawa Keiko smiled awkwardly and could only nod in agreement.

Villa No. 3, Special Higher Police Apartment Complex, Wusong Road.

When Zhao Xuan and Lan Zehuizi entered the room, Dao Yan was already in the kitchen preparing dinner, while Dao Ya was sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a bunch of snacks and eating them like a little hamster.

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Dao Ya immediately turned her head to look.

"Brother-in-law, Sister Huizi, you're here!"

Aizawa Keiko looked at Dao Ya with shining eyes, changed her shoes, and quickly walked towards her.

Zhao Xuan simply smiled and turned to walk towards the kitchen.

Dao Yan, who was in the kitchen, also peeked out when she heard the noise:
"Ah Xuan, Hui Zi, you're here. Please have a seat. Dinner will be ready in a bit."

"Ayan, let me help you."

On the sofa, Aizawa Keiko and Daoya huddled together, and Daoya shared her snacks with Keiko.

"Sister Huizi, you're not here to interrogate me, are you?"

Aizawa Keiko smiled and shook her head:

“I’m not, your brother-in-law is.”

“But Ah Xuan is right, Xiao Ya. If the Navy finds out what you did this time, it will probably be hard to get away with it.”

Dao Ya looked at Aizawa Keiko pitifully:

"Sister Huizi, I just wanted to help you, but I didn't expect to cause such a big problem. What should I do now?"

Aizawa Keiko stroked Toa's hair:
"It's alright, I've already covered it up for you. No one will know that you got the items through the Navy."

"However, you are not allowed to do such things again. Your brother-in-law said tonight that I am not allowed to plead for you, so you should be more discerning later."

Dao Ya's lips twitched slightly. Good grief, her brother-in-law and sister asked her to handle something, but in the end, she still had to take the blame and put on a show in front of Lan Zehuizi.

Sigh, "Life is tough."

"Understood, Sister Huizi."

Soon, Zhao Xuan and Dao Yan brought out the food.

At the dining table, Dao Ya, who had just finished serving her rice and walked to the table, noticed that her sister and brother-in-law were looking at her with serious expressions.

Aizawa Keiko quickly reached out and pulled Toa to sit down next to her:
"Ayan, let's eat first, I'm starving."

Lan Zehuizi didn't want Dao Ya to be double-teamed by Dao Yan and Zhao Xuan in front of her.

The reason I agreed to come to Zhao Xuan's house tonight was because I was afraid that Dao Yan would harm Dao Ya.

Everyone started eating, and at first the only sound on the table was the clinking of bowls and chopsticks.

Dao Ya secretly observed Dao Yan and Zhao Xuan's expressions, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

She wanted to say something witty to ease the tension, but she was afraid of making things worse.

Zhao Xuan picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and said slowly:

"Xiaoya, although Huizi helped you cover this up, you need to understand the seriousness of the matter. Your business is shady to begin with, and you even dared to get involved with the navy. You must be extremely careful in the future, as even a small mistake could lead to big trouble."

Daoya nodded hurriedly, her mouth full of food as she mumbled a reply:
"Brother-in-law, I know I was wrong. I promise I won't be so reckless again."

Dao Yan put down her chopsticks, glared at Lan Ze Huizi who was speaking up for Dao Ya, and then looked at Dao Ya seriously and said:
"Dao Ya, you're lucky this time, but there won't be a next time. If I find out you've done something unreliable again, the next time we'll talk won't be at the dinner table. I don't want to go to prison or the interrogation room to see you."

Seeing this, Aizawa Keiko, fearing that Toa would be upset, smiled and tried to smooth things over:
"Alright, alright, let's stop nagging Xiaoya. It's good that she knows she was wrong. Come on, let's eat and try Ayan's cooking. I've been craving it for so long."

Then, Aizawa Keiko placed a piece of braised pork, Daoya's favorite food, on her plate and said:
"Xiaoya, eat more. Look, you've lost weight recently."

Daoya glanced gratefully at Aizawa Keiko and whispered:
"Sister Huizi, you are so kind."

Halfway through the meal, Aizawa Keiko suddenly remembered something and said to Zhao Xuan, "Xuan, if Toyoda puts pressure on us again tomorrow because of the test report, we need to think of our response in advance so that they can't find any fault with us."

Zhao Xuan nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Well, I'll talk to the technical department again tomorrow morning to see if we can emphasize the potential dangers of the samples more in the report. After all, even Tu Feiyuan himself is afraid of that thing. As for that watch, it's even less likely that we'll hand it over to them tomorrow."

Dao Yan listened from the side, and like Zhao Xuan, pretended not to understand even though she knew the truth:
"You can talk about these things in front of me, but Xiaoya is still here."
