Observed. The agent replied: "It feels like there are not too many people. I pretended to be a businessman and sold a lot of things on Saint Street." Therefore, the detention time was extended, and the frequency of puppet troops coming in and out was very high. Combined with the size of the building where the patrol battalion office is located, the patrol office in this place must have at least one platoon of troops. "
That's it. After Xiong Bashan finished questioning this subordinate, he began to ask several other people about the investigation situation.
These five investigators who came to Chongqing with him were carefully selected and brought over by him, and they were all very capable. And it is spread out, so that a large area can be controlled at the same time, avoiding repeated investigations.
After knowing what was going on, Xiong Bashan told everyone to go to sleep.
There is no need to go outside, just sleep on the boat. There is definitely enough space anyway. It's not as cold as winter now. Covering yourself with a big quilt and a thick blanket underneath, it's still quite warm.
After getting up the next day, everyone washed themselves in the river water and set out to investigate again. They have a rotation system, and one person cannot complete activities in one area. He is still active here today. It always happens again and again, that increases the risk. Therefore, the interchanges are interspersed, which is safer and less eye-catching.
To investigate this kind of thing, sometimes you need to be careful and sometimes you need to be rough. Of course, usually, the more detailed the effect, the better. After all, it never hurts to know more information, whether you can use it in the end or not.
But the investigation still needs to be based on certain circumstances. For example, if there is a time limit, then it can only be "rough". The current strategy of Xiong Bashan and others is a method from rough to details mentioned by Fan Keqin in the secret agent textbook. What does it mean? In layman's terms, it means to first clarify the general situation and then pursue the details.
Because you can use this method no matter whether you have enough time or not. Even if something happens in the middle and you have to take action immediately, you will still be able to grasp the overall situation.
At this time, they still have plenty of time. The first investigation yesterday was just a general situation, and today they will get more detailed. For example, figure out the route in this area, how many paths lead to Guanyuan Road, and where they can reach each. In addition, we should also pay attention to the buildings on the street of Guanyuan Road where there are traders or ordinary residents. Then it becomes more detailed: how many people flow on these streets in each period and so on. Finally, a comprehensive grasp of the situation in this area will enable operators to determine the best action plan based on the investigation situation.
In this way, three or four days passed, and Xiong Bashan's grasp of the situation on Guanyuan Road and the surrounding areas became more detailed. Moreover, it was the agreed time, so he deliberately wandered to a relatively far place and bought a copy of Chongqing News.
Then he used lunch as a cover to read the newspaper while eating and drinking in a restaurant. The first thing he looked at was the bulletin board in the newspaper.
In a not very conspicuous place, Xiong Bashan saw a small square with an advertisement inside. It says, Lianglijia Cosmetics sincerely invites merchants to cooperate. What follows is a short introduction to Beautiful House Cosmetics, followed by contact information.
It can be said that this advertisement is no different from some of the advertisements next to it, but when you see it in Xiong Bashan’s eyes, it’s completely different. Because this was the contact method agreed upon before they came.
Beautiful House is the representative. People from the field team have arrived and asked to contact Xiong Bashan. In the middle introductory paragraph, the required information for the joint is secretly hidden.
Xiong Bashan picked out the words above one by one in the order agreed in his mind, and it became: "Three mountains move and reveal Meiling." These five words. But these words together have no meaning. However, Xiong Bashan knew what it meant. Translated, this is a concise address, Sanshan East Road, Meiling.
As for whether Meiling is a homophone, Xiong Bashan is not sure, but it must be a place like Meiling, Meilin, Meiling. As for what this place is, it is still unclear. But no matter what it is, it must be on Sanshan East Road.
These words are all included in the introduction, such as beautiful, moisturizing lotion, exquisite and translucent, etc., to promote the product. But after knowing the order, pick out the corresponding characters and put them together to get what the other person wants to express. And there are also things like homophony, or the same pronunciation but different words.
Below is a set of contact numbers. Xiong Bashan once again followed the required order and picked out four numbers, 1330. That means thirteen thirty.
As for what day the meeting will take place? When the other party used the word "beautiful cosmetics", Xiong Bashan knew that it was the next day - the day after it was published in the newspaper.
The main reason is that they made a very strict agreement in advance. For example, using Qingli cosmetics means two days after the newspaper is published. Jinli Cosmetics means the first Thursday after the newspaper is published, etc. Until Charming Cosmetics said something extremely special had happened, it immediately withdrew from Chongqing and returned to its headquarters.
This is a set of passwords required for connection, and they were newly made before they came. Only the big boss Fan Keqin, Xiong Bashan, Kang Changming, and Zhao Debiao knew it. Of course, Zhuang Xiaoman also knew Fan Keqin's big secret. After all, he was a confidential secretary, and he was devoted to Fan Keqin.
After reading and remembering the information he wanted to know, Xiong Bashan pretended to take a sip of food, a sip of wine, ate and drank again, and then read the newspaper again. He couldn't put it down right away, as that would easily lead to someone looking at it and figuring out which page he just looked at.
So Xiong Bashan pays so much attention to details? Yes, this is really not to praise Fan Keqin, but this is his style of doing things, which requires attention to details at all times. Sometimes when Fan Keqin is free, he goes to the training base to take a few classes in person, and you can always hear the word "details" from his mouth.
Feeling that he was done pretending, Xiong Bashan finally consumed all the food and wine, paid the bill, walked out of the restaurant, and listened to a play for several hours at a semi-open-air theater near the pier. But his position was very particular. He could see the situation at the dock. He observed that several of his men had gone back and there were no tails behind them. Then he got up and gave some inconspicuous rewards, got up and left, also towards the berth of the ship. Go.
