The next day, the Jinsui Army's office in Shanghai called as usual to inquire about last night's transport ship, but received no response.
In the first hour, the office was calm and calm, but after the second telegram was sent without response, the office panicked and called several times but still received no response.
Now the office can't sit still.
Jinsuijun is already poor. If the production line he spent more than 40,000 yuan to buy disappears, who can't get rid of them all?
All members of the office were dispatched to investigate.
Of course, we need to check Global Trade first, but there is a receipt order issued there with the signature of the recipient, which proves that the goods have indeed been received.
The office went to Pier 7 to investigate. They found the departure records of two cargo ships - which proved that the cargo ships had left.
They then divided their troops into two groups.
Along the way, the boat pursued upstream along the Yangtze River, and on the other way, it went to look for coolies unloading and loading goods and inquired about the situation.
There is still no answer in the pursuit, but the other side learned from the coolie that a patrolman came to check that night.
They were worried that the patrol had seized the boat, so they immediately went to the nearest arresting house to inquire.
However, the police officer said that he did not go to Pier 7 to dispatch the police last night. They were worried that the police were dispatched from across the district, so they asked other police officers. After more than a dozen police officers inquired, everyone in the office was immediately confused.
Last night, no police officers were dispatched to Pier 7!
Fake policeman!
Since he is a fake patrol officer, doesn't it mean that... the production line has been hacked?
The Jinsui Army office exploded immediately!
Is there any more royal method? Is there any more heavenly justice? They even dared to rob the goods of the Jinsui Army!
This is outrageous!
…
Shanxi's annual revenue is only over 20 million yuan. The 20 million yuan is not only used to support soldiers and officials, but also to engage in education, industry, people's livelihood, etc. When allocated, every money is precious.
More than 40,000 is not a small amount for Shanxi!
Naturally, the Shanghai office did not dare to conceal this matter, and reported the situation to Shanxi with trepidation.
Shanxi was very angry after receiving the telegram.
Again, there is no more royal method!
So Shanxi directly called Shanghai's military police special system and asked them to immediately investigate the theft of their own machine production line.
Although the Jinsui Army was a de facto warlord, in name, he was indeed a high-ranking military official in the Republic of China.
The man who made the call personally, the Shanghai Navy, Political, Police and Constitutional System naturally did not dare to take it seriously and immediately investigated it.
…
Secret Service Shanghai Station.
"Stationmaster," Gu Shenyan stood respectfully in front of his desk and reported: "Shanxi sent a telegram to assist in the investigation, saying that two cargo ships lost contact after leaving Pier 7 last night and asked us to assist in the investigation."
"Shanxi?" Wang Shi'an sneered: "Yan Lao's hands are quite long! Are you dictating to us? Don't worry about him!"
Wang Shi'an didn't want to ask any more questions. After all, the secret service was for the captain, so it was not a trivial matter if his elbow turned in the wrong direction.
But then he thought about it, what did Yan Laojie lose? He actually sent a joint investigation report to the Shanghai Station, so he asked curiously: "By the way, Lao Gu, you are well-informed and know what the two cargo ships lost." ? Does Mr. Yan care so much?"
"I don't know." Gu Shenyan shook his head, pondered for a while and then said: "But according to the information I got, the Shanghai government, police, and security groups have all received notifications from Shanxi requesting assistance in the investigation."
"Eh? Have you received it from the military, political, police, Xiante? It seems that what Yan Lao Chu lost is unusual!" Wang Shi'an became interested and thought about it: "In this case, let's agree to it. We have to think about whether to do it or not. , but I’m actually interested in what exactly was lost!”
Gu Shenyan nodded and suggested: "Webmaster, we are doing private work for Shanxi. I think we can ask them for some activity funds."
Wang Shi'an's eyes lit up when he heard this.
This can be done!
"You go and do this! Our Shanghai station is changing from a district to a station, and the brothers are not in a good mood. With this fund, we can give subsidies to the brothers!"
Wang Shian smiled sinisterly.
"yes!"
Shanghai Office of the Party Affairs Office.
"Director, our investigators in the police and political circles have received intelligence. Shanxi has issued a joint investigation notice to the navy, political, police and constitutional systems."
"Just the thing that was sent to us this afternoon?"
"Yes. It is said that the Shanghai District-Shanghai Station of the Secret Service has also received a similar notification of assistance in the investigation."
"Huh? What did Yan Laoji throw away? There was such a big commotion!"
"They are two cargo ships. The specific cargo information is unknown."
The director tapped on the table and kept calculating in his mind. After calculating for a while, he said: "Let's do this. Tell the Shanxi authorities that we will take this job, but they need to provide funds."
"Funding? It is said that Shanghai Station has similar requirements."
"Shanghai Station also made this request? Find out how much the Shanghai Station is asking for! We must be three times that! We are not just a small matter from the Secret Service. If we mobilize, even the Secret Service can't reach it with eight poles at our disposal!"
"yes!"
…
The five major military, political, and police agencies have all received Shanxi's cooperative investigation report. Compared with the serious investigation of the military, political, and police agencies, the two major spy agencies have chosen to ask for funds...
The people in Shanxi almost exploded with anger!
This is Chi Guoguo taking advantage of the situation!
Is there any more royal method! !
But after Shanxi learned about the strength of Shanghai's spy system, it finally chose to compromise.
A funding of 800 yuan and a funding of 2,000 yuan.
The money hurt the man in Shanxi's toothache.
After all, it's additional overhead.
However, people strive to take a breath of Buddha and receive a stick of incense. He, the majestic king of Shanxi, was actually robbed. This face must be regained!
Otherwise, wouldn’t all the young people in the world be able to step on the face of the King of Shanxi?
…
The Party Investigation Office in this era is indeed more powerful than the Secret Service.
Take Shanghai as an example.
The Secret Service has only the Shanghai Station in Shanghai (currently a new special team has been added), with a combined manpower of just over 200 people.
What about the Party Affairs Office?
The Shanghai Office's headquarters has more than 300 people.
In addition, in government departments, cultural institutions, police systems, and school systems, there are also a large number of special situations, party member investigation networks (also known as CC Party Network, Party Member Communication Network [I think this name is awkward anyway]), Correspondent.
When the Party Affairs Investigation Office's machines are fully activated and run for one goal, the efficiency is extremely terrifying.
On the third day, the Shanghai Office of the Party Affairs Office had preliminary investigation results:
On the night of the shipment, someone pretended to be a public concession patrol officer and hijacked the Jinsui Army's purchasing personnel and two cargo ships;
On the Yangtze River, crew members saw the two ships, and two hours after the hijacking, gunshots were heard from the two cargo ships;
Some fishermen saw with their own eyes people dumping corpses on these two boats. Since no floating corpses were found, the fishermen speculated that the sinking method was used to dump the corpses. Due to the current, subsequent searches did not find the body;
The next day, someone on the dock in Nanjing saw the two ships and witnessed the unloading;
The next day, the Nanjing Office of the Party Affairs Office traced the whereabouts of these two cargo ships - they were sold to gang forces in Nanjing at a low price, and the crew members were missing.
Because of the intervention of the Nanjing Office, the headquarters of the Party Affairs Office also received the news.
After receiving the news, a senior executive at the Party Affairs Office headquarters felt that the news was not quite right:
"The supplies purchased by the Jinsui Army have been robbed? Wait, something seems wrong - send a telegram to the Shanghai Office and ask them to send the detailed information!"
Soon the Party Affairs Office Headquarters received a telegram from the Shanghai Office. Perhaps the Shanghai Office was worried that the headquarters would blame them for working for the Jinsui Army, so they sent a long telegram explaining the whole story in detail. They also focused on explaining that they had received 2,000 yuan in investigation funds from Shanxi Province.
After receiving the telegram and reading it, the senior executive of the Party Affairs Office said to himself:
"The machine purchased by the Jinsui Army?"
"wrong!"
He suddenly remembered the news that had come from Nail within the Jinsui Army not long ago.
He immediately realized that two offices might be involved, and immediately took the telegram to Director Xu.
After meeting Director Xu, the senior executive told all the information, and finally expressed his speculation:
"Virgin, I suspect that the Secret Service did this!"
After hearing this, Director Xu laughed and said:
"Remove the word doubt!"
"Ah? Is it really the second department that did this? Virgo, can we..." The senior executive's expression became playful.
Director Xu glared at his subordinates:
"Sold the Secret Service and then asked the Jinsui Army to complain to the superiors? The superiors reprimanded the Secret Service and then praised it in private?"
This high-level executive was right in saying that, after all, the Secret Service was doing the work of weakening the warlords. They might be punished on the surface, but they would definitely be praised behind the scenes!
"Then let's just pretend we don't know and let Jinsui Army investigate on their own!"
"Stupid!" Director Xu looked at his subordinates with hatred, and he had no means at all!
"This news is useless to us! But it can be useful to some people!" Director Xu said with a smile:
"Didn't the Shanxi side ask Shanghai's military, political, police, and special systems to be investigated? The Shanghai Station must be indispensable!"
"This work is probably not done by the Shanghai Station, but by the one who is preparing to take credit for his nephew!"
"Then why don't we sell this news to Shanghai Station? Let Shanghai Station find out the culprit?"
The subordinates were convinced after hearing this and said from the bottom of their hearts:
"Virgo, you are so tall! This move will surely embarrass the Secret Service to the ends of the earth!"
Director Xu smiled reservedly and said to himself:
Lao Dai, Lao Dai, don’t blame me for cheating on you, brother. It’s true that you brought your neck to my knife’s edge. If I don’t cut it with this knife, I’d be sorry for your kindness!
"Virgo, can I go down and explain to the Shanghai office?"
"Well, tell the Shanghai Office to keep this matter secret and don't let the Second Office get the handle!"
After finishing the instructions, Director Xu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This little guy from the God of Plague deserves to be Lao Dai's nephew! What a cruel attack! More than a dozen crew members and five buyers from the Shanxi-Sui Army, tsk tsk, all of them... Didn’t stay!”
"If this matter ends up in the newspapers, it will probably be a huge scandal! You should be careful and don't let this matter get picked up by those gossipy newspapers! Do you understand?"
The subordinate's eyes lit up and he said seriously: "Don't worry, Virgo, these reporters will never get wind of this matter. You know the ability of our Party Affairs Office to keep secrets!"
Director Xu smiled with satisfaction. His subordinates were not stupid, they understood what he meant!
The Party Affairs Office cannot leak it, but what if someone teaches the Jinsui Army to leak it?
Does that have anything to do with the Party Affairs Office?
The subordinate said goodbye respectfully, and after leaving the director's office, he smiled knowingly as if he had everything under control.
Look, Virgo has trusted me again.
Who says stupid people can't be trusted by superiors?
