Fan Keqin could not refute Clyde Hunter's statement, so he was silent for a moment and said: "Then... General, you just said that you believe that we have indeed cracked this special secret cable. In this case, can we I can't ask you to also contact Washington... As for the final result, let Washington judge it. As soldiers, we only report the information truthfully. This is also our responsibility, isn't it? General."
After hearing this, Clyde understood that this young man in front of him still wanted to fight for it. But just as the other party said, he is a soldier. Now the Chinese secret agents have reflected this piece of information to themselves. Although they judge that it is impossible to happen, as a soldier, they still have to respond to the superiors truthfully. of. Thinking about it again, after I arrived here, the other party treated me very warmly, and used what looked like the best of the best troops to protect my safety. So after finally thinking about it for about a minute, Clyde nodded and said: "Okay, Colonel Fan, what you said makes sense. I will send back what you just said to me, as well as our judgment just now. As for the outcome, as you said, let Washington judge."
"Yes, General." Fan Keqin said: "Let the White House and the Department of Defense make the judgment."
After the two of them finished smoking, Clyde Hunter invited Fan Keqin to come over in the evening and have a meal together, but Fan Keqin refused because he had other work. Then let the first-level guards in black suits escort Clyde back to the warehouse. He pulled Wang Zhanyuan aside and told him to protect Clyde. Then he drove back to the intelligence office again.
It was less than one o'clock before getting off work. Fan Keqin didn't waste any time and hurried directly to the second floor and entered Sun Guoxin's office through Gu Xijun.
At this moment, Qian Jinxun was pointing at a map spread on the table and explaining something to Sun Guoxin. After seeing Fan Keqin come in, he immediately waved and said: "Keqin is back. There is news about the last arrangement. I am reporting the situation to the director."
Fan Keqin came closer and saw that the map was a river map, so he asked: "Is it about Wuhan?"
"Yes!" Qian Jinxun pointed to the place on the picture, turned to look at Sun Guoxin, and said: "Virgin, based on our arrangement, we can basically confirm that this mysterious person I just told you about, It's on the passenger steamer with registration number 0761. According to the arrangement after Keqin and I studied last time, there are no less than a hundred steamers coming from Wuhan to this waterway, but the passengers disembarking on the way are not counted. There are quite a few, and there are a lot of passengers on board. It can be said that more than thirty ships have been eliminated by Yueyang. Because there are twenty-eight of these thirty steamships, and this trip is specifically for the short distance from Wuhan to Yueyang. . There were two other ships that broke down, and the passengers on them had been ferried to other ships, but these ships also disembarked no passengers after arriving at Shishou. Other ships also successively arrived in Jiangling, Jingzhou, and Zhi The river and Yidu are under heavy pressure. Up to now, we have arranged secret statistical points, and have compared and calculated them one after another. It is absolutely certain that there are only three passengers from Wuhan, one on each of the three boats, but the other two Among the people on the boat, one of them is a woman, which is impossible. The other is a young man, who looks less than twenty years old. The spy assured me that he was definitely not wrong, and there was nothing wrong with these two people. Disguise. The remaining person, who looks like he is in his thirties, has not gotten off the ship until now. Although many people are coming to Chongqing on the way, those who came from Wuhan, He is the only one left. If nothing unexpected happens, he is the mysterious man."
After hearing this, Sun Guoxin nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, and your conjecture is very reasonable. But I have a question, that is, how can you tell where the people on the boat come from? Can your spies know where they come from? Calculate it?"
Qian Jinxun smiled and said: "That's right, Virgo. We have arranged people at various supply points along the way. Moreover, steamships that run long distances also have tickets issued. We also set up division points on the waterways. Every time we arrive, Check the ferry ticket at each zone to see where you bought the ticket. If you buy a short-distance ticket and you pass the zone point all of a sudden, you will have to pay for the ticket. These boat bosses, all of them I am shrewd and experienced, so I came up with this idea. Now it is being used by us, and it is unintentionally helping us.
After listening to his explanation, Sun Guoxin showed a satisfied expression and said: "Yes, if people in this era are not smart in their lives, they may not be able to survive. But this time, the main thing is that you have to be prepared beforehand. Yes, the advance quantitative investigation arrangement played a role. In addition, the one in Wuhan, the brother who first discovered the suspicious mysterious man, can be said to be crucial. Without him, the location cannot be determined, and if the location cannot be determined, then it is completely There is no surveillance layout for you along the way. Looking back, if you verify this matter and investigate it to death, you have to be generous and give a big favor to the brother in Wuhan."
Qian Jinxun nodded and said: "Yes, Virgo, don't worry, I have made arrangements. When the time comes, I will directly reward him with a big red envelope of 50,000 yuan, and then give him a secret promotion. After all, he is working on the front line of intelligence. It’s better to keep a low profile.”
"Yes." Sun Guoxin agreed, lowered his head and looked at the map again, and said, "Now, where is this zero-seven-six-one ship?"
Qian Jinxun said: "According to the last report, we just stopped in Yunyang to replenish fuel an hour ago, so now we should be..." As he spoke, he pointed at a place in the waterway with his finger and continued: "Guan Er Tang As for Xiaozhou Village, this generation will not survive much even if it passes."
At this time, Fan Keqin also understood from the side that this was the large network he and Qian Jinxun had researched and set up before. The exact news came and they locked the mysterious man who was most likely a Japanese spy assassin. So he said: "Then this guy will be here tomorrow."
After hearing this, Qian Jinxun thought for a while and said, "Well, he has just replenished the fuel and should be able to reach Chongqing in one go. Even if the fuel is not enough in the meantime, he can at most replenish it. It won't take long. Today's one At night, there is still a day tomorrow, which means that there is a 90% chance that we will arrive in Chongqing before ten o'clock tomorrow night." Then, he reached out and patted Fan Keqin on the shoulder, and said: "The next step depends on your arrangements. Yes."
