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

Chapter 357 Jealousy
Osamu Kishimoto was completely oblivious to what Keiko Aizawa was saying, because the group of people who had just entered had stunned him.

When Sasaki Yoshiaki saw these people, his pupils contracted sharply. He looked at the group of people on the left and then at Aizawa Keiko on the right in disbelief.

Yamayu Kazuo couldn't help but rub his eyes. He couldn't believe that these people would appear in the Special Higher Police and were about to become members of the Intelligence Advisory Section.

As a confidant of Aizawa Keiko and also one of Watanabe Kyoko's men, Yamauchi knew exactly who the people Aizawa Keiko had summoned were.

These are all elites cultivated by the Aizawa family, and they are all political capital for Aizawa Keiko!

However, this crucial political capital was simply handed over to Zhao Xuan by Aizawa Keiko. Even Yama Yuichiro felt that the world had gone mad.

Kishimoto Osamu was speechless. He had always dreamed of the political resources of the Aizawa family.

And this stupid woman actually packed it all up and gave it to a Chinese man!

"Section Chief Zhao, what do you think of the people I've prepared for you?"

As soon as Aizawa Keiko finished speaking, the group of people standing behind her stepped forward one by one to introduce themselves.

The one leading the group was not Heiji Ito, but a middle-aged man with a baka beard, wearing a Type 98 cap and a military uniform.

After stepping forward, the man first bowed slightly to Zhao Xuan, then looked at the crowd and said:

"Section Chief, Section Chief Zhao, esteemed officers, my name is Shimura Nitta, and I serve as the Deputy Section Chief of the Intelligence Advisory Section. Please give me your guidance."

After speaking, Shimura Nitta bowed slightly to Zhao Xuan before returning to the group.

Zhao Xuan had already started scanning mode. He hadn't expected that Shimura Nitta was actually a master of Bushido, and that he had thoroughly implemented the spirit of Bushido.

After Shimura Nitta stepped down, the introductions began from left to right.

"Reporting to my superiors, I am Heiji Itō, the group leader of the Intelligence Advisory Section, and I am proficient in the use of all types of firearms."

"Reporting, Your subordinate, Ito Kano."

"Reporting, Your subordinate, Shimura Kubo."

"My name is Yagyu Senmei!"

"Hello, Section Chief Zhao, my name is Izumi Ito."

After they had all introduced themselves, Aizawa Keiko smiled and said:

“Ah Xuan, they are good at different things. Ito Kano is a karate master, Shimura Kubo is an aikido master, Yagyu Chimi was born into the Yagyu family, a ninja family, and Ito Izumi is his junior sister.”

"These people are in the intelligence advisory section, and I believe they can be of great help to you."

After listening to their words, along with Lan Zehui's introduction and Edith's scan, Zhao Xuan was quite shocked.

It must be said that the Lanze family has a very strong foundation.

These people, who have made great achievements in their respective fields, have now become his subordinates.

"Of course, the intelligence advisory section is not yet fully staffed. Ah Xuan, you will be in charge of recruiting the remaining personnel."

Aizawa Keiko's words made it very clear that the remaining people were from China.

After all, if Zhao Xuan were to recruit, he could only choose from Chinese people, and he didn't know any other Japanese people.

Aizawa Keiko's words deeply stung Kishimoto Osamu. You see, the people Aizawa Keiko prepared for Zhao Xuan were all talented individuals, the kind of people everyone would fight over.

But now, all these talented people have become Zhao Xuan's subordinates.

Osamu Kishimoto seems to have already foreseen the fate of the intelligence division he leads.

There's no comparison, there's simply no way to compare.

After the meeting, Zhao Xuan first led Shimura Nitta and others to the intelligence advisory department, which had been prepared by Aizawa Keiko, and then began the recruitment process.

Zhao Xuan already had a plan in mind for who he wanted to recruit, and he made arrangements last night.

The main job is to recruit clerks for administrative tasks, and now there is also a secretary position.

None of the other section chiefs in the Special Higher Police had secretaries, not even Aizawa Keiko.

However, when Zhao Xuan looked at the staffing list of his intelligence advisory department, he discovered that there was actually a vacancy for a secretary.

Zhao Xuan also had someone in mind for this secretary position.

Shimura Nitta immediately got to work upon arrival, leading a team to conduct a preliminary investigation of the Zhizhen Garden.

Only Izumi Ito remained as Zhao Xuan's temporary secretary.

Dressed in a well-fitting black bodysuit, Izumi Ito stood smiling beside Zhao Xuan and handed him a document:
"Section Chief, please take a look at this recruitment document. If there are no problems, I will arrange for it to be posted."

Zhao Xuan glanced at it after taking the document and could see that even the recruitment process was arranged by Lan Zehui herself. This could be described as overcoming all objections and taking full responsibility for recruiting a group of Chinese people into the Special Higher Police.

Zhao Xuan shook his head helplessly. Now he finally understood what it meant to be unable to bear the kindness of a beautiful woman. But unfortunately, Zhao Xuan and Lan Zehuizi were destined to be enemies!

"No problem, you can post it now. You can decide for me, clerk. I will personally interview this secretary."

"Hi!"

Izumi Ito took the document back, bowed slightly, took a few steps back, and then turned and left the section chief's office.

This office was converted from Zhao Xuan's previous lounge. The adjacent room was also opened up, and now the office of the Intelligence Advisory Section is right outside. It's a room of more than 200 square meters, and everything is ready.

Now all we have to do is wait for Zhao Xuan to finish recruiting so we can get right to work.

Moreover, the functions of the Intelligence Advisory Section have already been defined, and Zhao Xuan can arrange his work in accordance with the model of the Intelligence Section.

As for the position of head of the intelligence section, Zhao Xuan had already mastered it to perfection back in No. 76.

While the Special Higher Police's Intelligence Advisory Section was actively recruiting staff, the former headquarters on Nanjing Road in Shanghai, led by Doi-Yuan, also received the news.

"Intelligence Advisory Section?"

"Is Aizawa Keiko playing such a trick? Is she planning to cripple the intelligence department?!"

Michiko Sakai smiled, knelt down beside the low table, poured a cup of sake for Doi-man, and said:

"I have already investigated the situation. Kishimoto Osamu has repeatedly contradicted Aizawa Keiko, and as for Aizawa Keiko's relationship with Zhao Xuan, teacher, you should be able to see it without me saying it."

“Kishimoto Osamu is always going against Zhao Xuan. If I were Aizawa Keiko, I wouldn’t let him off easy either.”

Tu Feiyuan sneered:
"She can't even control her subordinates. Aizawa Keiko only became the head of the Special Higher Police because of Watanabe."

"But this is troublesome."

Michiko looked at Doi-Omi with some confusion:
"Teacher, what's the trouble?"

The chubby girl gave Michiko a disgruntled look:
"Zhao Xuan is a rare talent. He only served as an advisor and helped Lan Zehuizi build the Special Higher Police into the largest intelligence agency in Shanghai today."

"Now Zhao Xuan is leading a department on his own. Michiko, just you wait and see, the Special Higher Police will soon be making a big move."

"Most importantly, Aizawa Keiko actually gave Zhao Xuan the political resources of the Aizawa family. This is equivalent to giving away her dowry directly. Do you know what this means?"

Upon hearing this, Michiko was already quite jealous.

If she had the resources of the Lanze family to help her, she might not be able to compare with Tu Feiyuan now, but at least she wouldn't still be just a small section chief.

The position of deputy director of the original agency had long been hers.

Michiko had met Zhao Xuan many times, and it must be said that Michiko had some affection and admiration for Zhao Xuan.

But that's not why Lan Zehuizi could hand over the Lan Ze family's political resources to Zhao Xuan. What makes him so capable?
"Michiko, it seems you're a little jealous of Zhao Xuan."

Michiko quickly composed herself and lowered her head somewhat awkwardly.

"Teacher, anyone would be jealous of this!"

Tu Feiyuan sighed. Yes, anyone would be jealous, even he, Tu Feiyuan, was envious.

That stupid woman, Aizawa Keiko, actually did such a wasteful thing for her own lust. She really doesn't care about the consequences of her actions.

"Alright, Michiko, please send a congratulatory gift to Zhao-san for me. There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. It's time for me to ease the tension between Zhao-san and me."

Michiko looked at Doiyuu in surprise. It seemed she had been wrong and underestimated Zhao Xuan's future potential, given his access to the political resources of the Aizawa family.

Tu Feiyuan must have realized this, so he decided to make amends.

"Hi!"

"However, teacher, don't you have any thoughts on this recruitment document?"

Doi-Yuan gave Michiko a sinister look:

"Stop your little schemes. I have my own plans for this. And don't forget, the suspicions surrounding that woman haven't been fully investigated yet."

Michiko quickly apologized:
"I'm sorry, teacher, but this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we can plant our people around Zhao Xuan, it will be an advantage for us."

Tu Feiyuan waved his hand, and just as he was about to speak, the phone on the low table rang.

Doi-Yuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately grabbed the phone. A few seconds later, he hung up and smiled at Michiko.
"Michiko, let's do as you say. You should know how to talk to her."

"Please don't worry, teacher!"

Michiko stood up with a smile on her lips and left the attic.

Guanghua Bookstore on Hankou Road, Shanghai.

Sun Jianzhong has received news that Chen Yuliang has safely left Shanghai.

Looking at the note in his hand, Sun Jianzhong let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Wang Shuyu knew the plan had succeeded. But she was still very curious about how Chenguang had done it.

"Uncle Sun, did the higher-ups say how Comrade Chenguang made the arrangements?"

Sun Jianzhong shook his head with a wry smile:

"No, I just said that Chen Yuliang has been safely sent away from Shanghai. Our comrades who were supposed to meet him in Beiping have already picked him up and are now transferring him to the base area."

Wang Shuyu shook her head, finding it utterly unbelievable.

Chen Yuliang was actually sent away from the train station. Who on earth has such great power to send Chen Yuliang, the guy that Ding Moqun is targeting, out of Shanghai?

And this happened right under everyone's noses.

Chenguang is impressive enough, but this company that managed to send people out of Shanghai from the hands of the Japanese is even more remarkable.

"Uncle Sun, what kind of people are among our comrades that they can actually send our migratory comrades out through railway transportation channels? It's simply unbelievable."

Sun Jianzhong's lips twitched slightly; he suspected that Wang Shuyu was teasing him.

After all, as the head of the underground party in Shanghai, he didn't have such channels at all. On the contrary, those comrades in Shanghai who were not under his jurisdiction had such channels.

"Uh, Uncle Sun, well, I didn't mean you're not good enough."

Sun Jianzhong glared at Wang Shuyu. This girl, why does she keep throwing knives at me with her words, stabbing me right in the heart!
"But now that Comrade Migratory Bird's matter has been resolved, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Sun Jianzhong sighed and looked at Wang Shuyu with a sense of self-reproach, saying:

"Shuyu, do you think this wouldn't have happened if I hadn't agreed to let Comrade Hou Niao continue to infiltrate No. 76?"

"You know how dangerous this was. If it weren't for Chenguang's help, Comrade Migratory Bird probably wouldn't have been able to leave."

Wang Shuyu looked at Sun Jianzhong with a smile:
“Uncle Sun, it’s not your fault to make this decision. Anyone in your position, given Chen Yuliang and his circumstances, would have agreed to this proposal.”

"It's just a pity that Chen Yuliang was unlucky; I didn't expect him to be exposed so quickly."

"Fortunately, no one was injured this time, which is the best possible outcome."

Sun Jianzhong smiled with relief, sat down on the bench, and took a document from his briefcase, handing it to Wang Shuyu:
"Shuyu, take a look at this. Chen Yibo will arrive in Shanghai at 3 PM today."

"The specific itinerary is unclear, and we don't know where he entered Shanghai from, but what we need to do next, Shuyu, you should understand."

Wang Shuyu nodded slowly as she looked at the document. A few minutes later, after finishing reading it, she looked at Sun Jianzhong with some surprise:

"Uncle Sun, if we are also planning to assassinate Chen Yibo, what will happen to the Sheshan Research Institute?"

"Uncle Sun, you should know that the original agency has already taken the virus from the Special Higher Police and sent it to Sheshan."

“Once they take root in Sheshan, it will be impossible to destroy the virus. We can’t possibly expect the Military Intelligence Bureau’s young tiger and our Comrade Chenguang to join forces again, just like last time, can we?”

"The Japanese have learned their lesson once, and this time Sheshan is definitely impregnable. Trying to replicate their previous feat of destroying the Sheshan Research Institute is nothing short of wishful thinking."

"Shouldn't we be focusing all our efforts on conquering and destroying the Sheshan Research Institute at this time?"

Sun Jianzhong laughed after hearing this:
"Shuyu, this is the organization's opinion. In addition, the organization has already contacted me and told us not to interfere in the Sheshan matter. Someone else will take care of it."

"As for who it is, that's not for us to know."

Wang Shuyu subconsciously thought of Chenguang, after all, in Shanghai, it seemed that only Chenguang could do this.

Judging from Sun Jianzhong's expression, he must have the same thoughts as me.

Since it was assumed that Chenguang had made the move, Wang Shuyu didn't dwell on the issue any further.

Eliminating the traitor Chen Yibo was fraught with difficulties, even more difficult than killing a Japanese prince.

As the saying goes, the people of China know their own methods best. Wang Shuyu believed that Chen Yibo must have made perfect preparations to eliminate him, and Wang Shuyu had no way to do so for the time being.

After all, the information is not yet complete; they don't even know where Chen Yibo entered Shanghai from.

Looking at Wang Shuyu's expression, Sun Jianzhong could roughly guess what she was thinking.

"Shuyu, although we don't know Chen Yibo's schedule for this mission, one thing is certain: he will definitely give a speech at Zhizhen Garden tomorrow noon, followed by a ball, that's the basic procedure."

"Many wealthy gentry, businessmen, and celebrities in Shanghai have received invitations, and Jon Snow and Comrade Hummingbird have also received such invitations."

Wang Shuyu's eyes lit up immediately:
"In other words, we have enough people to infiltrate Zhizhen Garden!"

"However, the security at Zhizhen Garden tomorrow is probably unpredictable. If we were to carry out an assassination under such circumstances, the casualties would likely be very high."

At this point, Wang Shuyu frowned:
"and"

Sun Jianzhong looked at Wang Shuyu with some doubt. Wasn't the situation clear now? Why did Wang Shuyu look so worried?
The danger of eliminating traitors at Zhizhen Garden is indeed great, but as long as it is planned and arranged properly, the chances are still very high. Moreover, there are outsiders to help, and the Military Intelligence Bureau will also assassinate Chen Yibo, so the possibility of success is still very high.

"Shuyu, and what else? Just tell me what you're worried about. Before we do anything, we have to consider all the possible scenarios!"

Wang Shuyu looked at Sun Jianzhong with a worried expression:
“Uncle Sun, Chen Yibo is a very cautious person. It’s not normal for him to send out such a large number of invitations, even to Comrade Hummingbird.”

"A large scale also means more unexpected events. Given Chen Yibo's character, would he take such a risk?"

"Moreover, with so many reporters and celebrities invited to the press conference, in such a chaotic environment, isn't Chen Yibo worried about someone assassinating him?"

Sun Jianzhong felt a little uneasy after hearing what Wang Shuyu said.

Yes, based on their understanding of Chen Yibo, it's impossible for him to put himself in such a dangerous environment.

The press conference was announced by Chen Yibo at Zhizhen Garden. If he doesn't go, wouldn't he be contradicting himself?

Could it be that Chen Yibo could get involved himself?

Seeing Sun Jianzhong's dilemma, Wang Shuyu continued:

“In the past, I probably wouldn’t have thought this way. No matter how skilled someone is at disguise, it’s impossible to completely transform into another person.”

"But after witnessing Comrade Chenguang's disguise skills, I always wondered if Chen Yibo might also go down this path?"

Sun Jianzhong pondered carefully for a while before shaking his head and saying:
"Shuyu, that's impossible. Comrade Chenguang is exceptionally talented in disguise, but not everyone is Chenguang."

"Besides, even if it's a disguise, Chen Yibo can't change some of his usual habits. We know Chen Yibo very well. As long as we pay attention to this, even if there really is such a master of disguise around Chen Yibo, we can quickly distinguish the real from the fake."

Wang Shuyu had nothing to say about this.

Chen Yibo was originally a member of the Red Party, but later defected to the Kuomintang, and then followed Wang Jingwei to join the Wang puppet regime.

Therefore, the organization has always been paying attention to Chen Yibo.

Naturally, they were also well aware of Chen Yibo's little tricks and certain unchangeable habits.

"Shuyu, the most important point is that this intelligence was provided by Chen Yibo's secretary, who is our comrade."

“He has been by Chen Yibo’s side for many years and knows Chen Yibo better. If it weren’t for accurate intelligence, that comrade wouldn’t have told us about Zhizhen Garden.”

Wang Shuyu had nothing to say at this point, and could only think that the Japanese had given Chen Yibo such confidence that he dared to speak publicly at Zhizhen Garden.

"Alright, let's discuss this carefully next and figure out how to do it tomorrow. The Military Intelligence Bureau must be making plans as well. I'm a little worried that we'll be influencing each other."

Sun Jianzhong smiled and said:

"There's no need to worry about that. The organization has already reached an agreement with the Military Intelligence Bureau. If the Military Intelligence Bureau fails, then it will be time for us to take action."

"Let's discuss now which people to send Jon and Comrade Hummingbird to bring into Perfect Garden."

Shanghai, No. 76, Jisifeier Road.

Suzuki Haruko and Yi Xincheng stood coldly in Ding Moqun's office.

Dao Yan, Wang Yiya, and Zhang Sanjin also stood there expressionless.

Both sides looked at Ding Moqun, while Dao Yan was explaining why Chen Yuliang had been arrested.

"Director, this is what we found in a hidden compartment in Chen Yuliang's bookcase."

"This book was written by Fang Lie, who has already been executed by Zhao Xuan. Based on our long-term investigation, the underground party member who came from Nanjing is very likely Fang Lie's student."

"As a student, it is perfectly reasonable to receive Fang Lie's personal blessing and the book he presented me with."

"Furthermore, we discovered that the information left behind regarding the previous communication between Fang Lie and that underground party member could be completely deciphered by comparing it with this book."

"This alone proves that Chen Yuliang was Fang Lie's student and the underground party member from Nanjing who carried the list of eighteen people."

"Moreover, I have reason to suspect that Chen Yuliang infiltrated our No. 76 organization to facilitate the investigation of the underground party and to obtain their contact information. In particular, the time when Yi Xincheng was assassinated was the time when Chen Yuliang made direct contact with the underground party. I suspect that it was during that time that Chen Yuliang obtained the contact information of the Shanghai underground party."

After hearing Dao Yan's words, Yi Xincheng was filled with disbelief.

Haruko Suzuki stroked her chin and nodded repeatedly. The evidence was conclusive and well-founded. Even if Chen Yuliang wasn't a member of the underground Communist Party, his identity was probably not simple. It would be better to kill such a person, even if he hadn't been arrested.

If Wang Yiya hadn't known the whole story, she probably would have believed Dao Yan's lies.

After listening, Ding Moqun also showed a look of sudden realization. Many things that were previously inexplicable could now be made clear.

Coincidentally, the Nanjing underground party's communication network was re-established not long after Yi Xincheng's assassination.

Dao Yan's analysis was meticulous and insightful, and in Ding Moqun's view, it completely revealed the reasons why Chen Yuliang disappeared after arriving in Shanghai.

"Good, I didn't expect the rat lurking in the intelligence department to be Chen Yuliang. You've worked hard this time, Xiao Dao."

After saying that, Ding Moqun looked at Yi Xincheng, who had come in earlier demanding an explanation from him, with a cold smile.

"Deputy Section Chief Yi, what do you have to say now? Are you still going to assure me that Chen Yuliang couldn't possibly be a member of the underground Communist Party?"
