Xu Tong looked over the confession he had just recorded and said without raising his head: "Keep an eye on him, don't let anything happen to him."
The attendant nodded slightly, walked to the courtyard gate, and gently held his hat twice with three fingers towards the alley. Immediately, a peddler carrying a load quietly put it on more than ten meters behind Liang Yuanfu, while an idle man stood behind the peddler. They followed silently from more than ten meters away, and the group of people slowly merged into the crowd of people at the alley. The afternoon sun was scorching the earth, and under the dazzling sunlight, all shadows were invisible.
Wu Mu sat tiredly on the sofa in the office of the Guangzhou Political Security Bureau, gently massaging his neck with his hands, and complained in a low voice: "The big wave shipping ship is getting more and more bumpy. Didn't these crew members all drive before?" Walk-behind tractor.”
A clerk came in and asked: "Director Wu, we are here, shall we start?"
Wu Mu originally wanted to rest for a while before starting to work, but after thinking about the pile of work at the moment, it was better not to procrastinate. He nodded helplessly and said, "Let them come in."
Yang Cao and Xu Tong walked in one after another. Wu Mu glanced at Yang Cao from the corner of his eye. Wu Mu felt a little uncomfortable every time he saw this woman. She was like a piece of dried hard-faced sesame seed cake. Flat, dry, neat but inedible. Moreover, his whole body was filled with the smell of cigarettes - he didn't smoke and was not used to the smell of cigarettes.
Wu Mu casually flipped through the recent work report and said, "Sit down. Mayor Liu and I are angry at each other. He will fully support our purge. This money man always wants to ransack homes." He immediately noticed this. When he realized his gaffe, he coughed dryly and said, "Tell me about the recent progress in instigating rebellion against the Liang Mansion."
Yang Cao nodded, sat down, adjusted his posture, and began to report: "It went more smoothly than expected. We collected a large amount of personal information about the rebel targets, including personal circumstances, personality traits, hobbies, family members, family difficulties, and society. Relationships, secrets and privacy. During the work, we successively secured seventeen peripheral personnel. After screening, we made direct contact with two key targets that we were more confident about. All of them were successful. Their code names were Coral and Shensha. They 's profile is stuck in the folder in your hand."
Wu Mu: "Yeah", he turned the folder marked top secret to the page of personal information.
Yang Cao continued: "Now most people in the Liang family are uneasy and doubtful about Liang Cunhou's hidden confrontation with the government, because no one thinks that they will be the winning party, and when external pressure increases, this kind of doubt will In fact, we used the Finance and Taxation Bureau’s recent inspection of the Liang Mansion’s accounts to achieve this goal. We used pressure tactics to create an atmosphere where everyone is at war, so that the relevant personnel of the Liang Mansion are full of hope for the future. Fear. This is actually a deformed prisoner's dilemma. When they know their situation, although they know that if they keep the secret strictly, there may not be any danger, but when they know or guess that there may be other informers and feel that the future is uncertain, Once we come into contact with them, in order to maximize their personal interests, they can only adopt one strategy, which is to take refuge. These people are in the same government but have no spirit of communication and cooperation. , No one will leave his destiny to the control of uncertain factors, let alone completely uncertain factors."
Yang Cao paused for a moment and suddenly said: "Can I smoke?"
Wu Mu was stunned for a moment.
Xu Tong smiled awkwardly and said, "She stayed up late again."
Wu Mu shook his head helplessly and said, "Yes. But you must pay attention to your health. Smoking and staying up late can lead to sudden death."
Yang Cao took out a Lady's Holy Boat and lit it as if there was no one around, shook out the match, raised her left hand slightly, held it loosely with the front ends of her index and middle fingers, brought it to her mouth, and lightly held the end of the filter with the corner of her mouth. , sipped it gently, leaving a faint trace of lipstick on the filter tip, and a strange style drifted in the curl of smoke.
Yang Cao paused and continued: "Most of these servants are old family members who have served the Liang family for many years. They are all ordinary citizens. They have been in the house for a long time and have little contact with the outside world. Although they basically have some old-fashioned ideas of loyalty, they can be seen He has little exposure to the world, poor psychological quality, and weak ability to withstand pressure. Once faced with high-pressure measures, he will quickly collapse. This shows that we have been a little too high on the internal and external defenses of the Liang Mansion. After all, the Liang Mansion is not an institution. The Liang Family and the Liang Family , no matter how strict it is, it is just a home, and we have absolute advantages in technical means, manpower, material resources, etc."
Wu Mu listened quietly. This did not surprise him. Even in the 21st century, recruitment of spies is often just a matter of drinking a cup of coffee or eating a meal. Sometimes recruitment can be done with an advertisement or even an email. To find a valuable intelligence agent, a monthly allocation of five to six thousand yuan to an intelligence agent may bring unexpected benefits.
Wu Mu nodded and continued: "Tell me about the information obtained."
Yang Cao said: "Both Huanhuo and Shensha told them that Liang Cunhou was compiling a book called "Tianqing Guangwenlu". The name is just a homophonic trick. Tianqing means Tianqing. Judging from the comprehensive information obtained from Huanhu and Shensha, It should be an intelligence compilation. Liang Cunhou has collected all the information on political form, industrial scale, economic situation, diplomatic exchanges, military deployment and other information obtained from within and elsewhere. Coral has not had direct contact with this book, and Shen Sha It can be said that Liang Cunhou added personal opinions and comments on the content in the gaps between the pages and between the lines almost book by book, which shows that he attaches great importance to this book. To be honest, this makes me a little surprised that Liang Cunhou can have such awareness, which is more The systematic and comprehensive collection of intelligence was beyond my expectations."
Wu Mu smiled: "There is no surprise. Liang Cunhou was one of the first people to come into contact with us. He is very smart and has a clear understanding of the power of our system. The person who knows you best is often your enemy. , this is not necessarily correct, but there is some truth. Our enemy is also constantly learning and will continue to improve. If he wants to learn, he must learn from the most powerful, so his behavior is most like us now. If we are complacent If we fall into a rut and cannot look at things from a developmental perspective, we will be eliminated sooner or later. The world is never static. Can we get this book?"
Yang Cao shook his head gently and said: "From the time when this book was compiled to the time it was preserved, Liang Cunhou never used ordinary servants. Even if it sank into the sand, he didn't know where it was kept. He only occasionally saw him annotating in the study. It can be seen that he was very concerned about the place where he lived. The environment is not completely trustworthy either. Comprehensive analysis shows that this book is not in the Liang Mansion, but it has not left Guangzhou."
Xu Tong added: "From some of the information we have, it is very likely that the book is in the hands of the prostitute named Yue Wan - who is also his concubine."
Wu Mu remembered the name: "Is this the place where the little girl was found in Witch Gu?"
"Yes, that's where she lives." Xu Tong said, "We are considering trying to develop an insider around Yue Wan."
Wu Mu thought for a while and said: "Keep an eye on this, but don't act rashly. Such important information will not be destroyed easily unless absolutely necessary. We must try to obtain it as completely as possible. If it is destroyed, it will cause future problems." The lack of key evidence during the trial of the case will leave a loophole in the legal theory when the conviction is made, and will also cause great obstacles to the publicity work to reveal the true face of the gentry after the case is solved. At the same time, this batch of materials is also the first major attack on Australia and Song Dynasty by hostile forces. Large-scale intelligence collection and analysis will have great reference significance and documentary value in future work. In every aspect, this batch of documents is very precious. Okay, let’s continue.”
Yang Cao continued: "Coral revealed that several key members of the Yuyuan Club are called Liang Cunhou..."
Wu Mu raised his eyebrows and interrupted: "Wendi? So, there is also Wudi?"
Yang Cao nodded and said: "Through clues, we also speculated that this possibility is possible, but the information we have now is very little, and it is possible that the intelligence collected in the early stage was missed during the analysis. We will organize further analysis of the existing information. Once organized. If this base really exists, then their execution ability should be relatively strong, because no relevant information has emerged during the investigation process. And they must be an independent line, with no intersection with anyone else, or It may be an anti-Song gang that has a parallel cooperative relationship with the Liang Mansion. Wen Di and Wu Di have completely different operating styles. Wu Di appears to be extremely cautious. If they can conceal themselves, it means that they have certain anti-investigation capabilities and are aware of it. The fixed-point investigation we deployed has avoided several of our fixed observation points around the Liang Mansion. If this is the case, it may mean that factory guards or former factory guards from the Ming Dynasty will be involved in the case. Liang Cunhou himself may also use these channels to investigate. We are aware of our actions, which may cause difficulties for our future actions."
Wu Muxu clenched his fist and tapped his two knuckles gently on the table. Liang Mansion was no longer a problem, but the new situation made things a little more complicated and seemed a bit unpredictable. Wu Mu thought for a moment, Slowly said: "We must proceed step by step, let the sand and corals continue to lurk, report what you see, don't inquire, don't spy, save yourself, we need more information to corroborate each other, continue to report."
While listening to Yang Cao's report, Wu Mu opened the drawer of the table, took out a Rubik's cube from it and played around with it. It was a gadget for him to use his mind and kill time when he was bored. He stared at the color blocks on the Rubik's cube. , he knew that if he wanted to reset the six sides of the Rubik's Cube, he would need to see all the elevations on the Rubik's Cube.
