Rushing inside, there are actually not many people in this pharmacy. When they entered, there was only one person who seemed to have a cold, and he was having his pulse checked by the doctor inside. He kept sniffling. As a result, when a group of agents rushed in, everyone inside, whether it was the doctor sitting in the hall, the patient, or the clerk in front of the medicine cabinet, was a little stunned.
The doctor who reacted the fastest was the doctor in his forties. When he saw the wolves and tigers rushing in one after another, he didn't care about the patients in front of him. He was stunned for a moment, got up and ran behind, mouthing loudly as he ran. Shouted: "The bandits have entered the city, the bandits are coming!!"
But he himself needs to get up from the chair, and then he needs to accelerate. Therefore, he definitely didn't start as fast as the agents who had already charged. After running a few steps, he was already caught up by an agent, who hit him on the back of the head with a gunshot. The man who looked like a doctor immediately rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
"Don't move! I'll beat you to death!" At this time, the other two agents had already used guns to hold down the sniffling patient. The other party was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and placed his hands on the table.
The remaining agents began to rush towards the inner door. The inner room was a medicinal materials warehouse. There is also a person who looks like a bookkeeper, who is opening the window and has already stepped on it with one leg. However, agents from the Security Bureau caught up with him, pulled him down, pushed him directly to the ground, and began to cuff him.
Several other agents rushed into the innermost room from the side door of the collection warehouse. This was a residence, with a kitchen separated from the distribution warehouse, and inside was the bedroom. All the furniture is also quite complete. But there was no one else inside at this time.
It can be said that this operation lasted less than a minute until everyone inside was held down. The two accounting clerks, who were highly suspected of being Japanese spies, and the gentleman sitting in the hall did not resist or fight back from the beginning to the end. But this is normal. If they are Japanese spies, then their accountant or doctor is equivalent to concealing their identity. How could he possibly carry weapons and firearms in order to conceal his identity for business purposes? Otherwise, if discovered, they will immediately be suspected.
But at this time, they were facing several agents with guns, and they could still resist, so they might as well pretend to be stupid and remain stunned until the end. And the doctor who was sitting in the court shouted "The bandits are coming." had this meaning. This operation was very clean and tidy, and all the people were taken down without firing a single shot.
Hua Zhang got out of the car outside and secretly held a gun in his right pocket. After all, the pharmacy at No. 82 has basically been confirmed to be a site for Japanese espionage elements. Although the raid has just been completed, vigilance still needs to be maintained. If there was a situation where he needed to shoot, Hua Zhang would keep his hand in his pocket and shoot directly through his coat pocket without even taking out the gun. And it's also secretive.
Kang Yan was also following behind him. After entering the pharmacy, Hua Zhang waved his hand and said, "Search!" and then walked directly to the back with Kang Yan. A group of agents also began to rummage around the room.
When Hua Zhang and the other two arrived at the back bedroom, Hua Zhang first took a look at the situation inside. It was obvious that this was a room that was frequently occupied. According to the surveillance and observation these days, after the doctor inside closes the door, he will go back to the bedroom at the back to rest. There is also a door to this bedroom, and after exiting it, you will find a back street.
Hua Zhang looked at the various furniture inside and saw a large-speaker gramophone placed on a small table under the north wall. She walked over, took a look, and found that there was a socket behind the gramophone. However, when she tried the crank handle on the side, her hand suddenly became loose.
Um? Hua Zhang immediately felt something was wrong, and carefully pulled the rocker handle off. When he looked inside, he saw that the joint was a small hole, and the structure was very similar to a jack for transferring telephone calls. And this thing can also be used to plug in headphones. Something seems wrong at this point. If the rocker is still there and the jack is not visible, everything looks normal. But now it is obvious that the crank handle exists to cover up the existence of this jack.
Hua Zhang plugged the crank handle back in, turned to look at Kang Yan, and said, "Go and drive the car here." He opened the bedroom door leading to the back street with his hand.
"Yes." Kang Yan said, turned around and walked out.
"The section chief has made a discovery." An agent lying under the bed, inspecting, said. It turned out that he discovered that the innermost part of the floor under the bed looked fine, but once he got his hands on it, it felt a little loose. Then he took out the knife he carried and tilted it up, which raised the floor. It should be the ground below, but it turned out that it was still covered with a layer of wooden boards.
When he tilted the wooden board, he found a not-too-thick book inside, as well as several extremely thin metal rods, but each end of these metal rods had threaded openings. Apparently, these small metal sticks can be connected together to form a very long metal antenna.
In addition to these there is a transmit button with a wire, as well as a headset. After hearing this, Hua Zhang came over, took a look, and knew that these were some parts of the spy radio. So he took the sheets from the bed, put the phonograph and all these little bits and pieces in the middle, wrapped them up, and said, "Remember the principle of confidentiality."
"Yes." The security agent replied, and then began to search the house. The more people there are, the faster the search will be. Within a few minutes, I found several envelopes taped to the bottom of the cabinet. They were all filled with U.S. dollars of small denominations, and of course some of the largest denominations of French currency.
Hua Zhang waved his hand and said: "Everyone should share some and use it as activity funds. Don't keep accounts."
Everyone became happy immediately after hearing this. In fact, this is normal. For them, there are still many opportunities to make extra money, but the extra money with US dollars is not that much. Although the U.S. dollar is valuable these days, there are not many real espionage elements because the U.S. dollar itself is more conspicuous. For example, the spies in this drug store have U.S. dollars, but they are all in small denominations.
Seeing Kang Yan come in, Hua Zhang said: "In this way, you should search thoroughly and pack up the books, newspapers, some account books, and even the reserved medicinal materials in the warehouse and take them back..."
