When the deputy director suddenly said that there was a mole among them, the little spies turned pale with fright. Anyone who was labeled as a mole in the Secret Service basically meant saying goodbye to this world.
Take Tokyo Station as an example. Because the bastard Tan Wei, the former leader of the operation, surrendered to the enemy, all the personnel who escaped are still under review. If any problems are found, they will inevitably go to the execution ground to be shot.
Shen Dongxin and Tongsuo were not afraid. After all, they were also the deputy director's confidants, but what happened today was really strange. How did the arresters notify the target after they had cut off contact with the outside world.
Soon, Cheng Ji's confession explained the problem. It turned out that a mysterious letter was sent to Zhang Anshi two hours ago. The man then left through the secret passage. It was obvious that someone was spreading the news.
A new question then emerged in everyone's mind. Why did the leaker know who the target of the arrest was? Only the deputy director knew the specific situation before the operation began, but the mole couldn't be the deputy director.
Then they would rather believe that someone can predict the future than believe in such a ridiculous conclusion. No matter what angle you consider it, it is impossible. The loyal Deputy Director Zuo has no reason to be a traitor.
After thinking carefully for a while, Shen Dongxin took the lead and stood up: "Deputy Director, I think the problem is not with us. Faced with such strict confidentiality measures, no one can send the information out in advance.
Moreover, it is not only our Secret Service that is involved in this case, there is also another agency that has appeared, and that is Xu Enzeng's secret service headquarters. Since we can discover their operators, they can also discover us.
The leaker is most likely from the other party. After all, moles appear in one place more than once or twice. This person may have noticed our activities near the First Park, and used this to deduce the arrest and warn the target. "
Well done,
Dongxin!
They all learned to answer questions quickly.
After listening to this, Zuo Zhong pondered for a moment, nodded in agreement, and then his face changed: "What you said makes some sense. There is indeed a tradition of leaking secrets in this place. Not only can these losers not solve the case themselves, but they also delay us.
I want to complain about this to the bureau, no, to the leader. The brothers have worked hard for so long, but in the end they fell short. Someone must bear this responsibility. I think the person named Xu is the culprit.
Normally, that's it. For the sake of the party and the state, I don't want to be acquainted with him, but now that the important suspect has been let go, if he doesn't give me an explanation, I will lead someone to arrest his aunt and wife. "
After putting the blame firmly on Xu Enzeng's head, he sighed and explained: "I won't hide it from you now. Zhang Anshi is most likely Chen Shi's upline or homing pigeon, and his identity is very important.
If this person can be caught, this case can basically be declared solved. I never expected that it would be disrupted by one place. It is such a pity. Let's go to Chengji to see if there are any clues left. "
After saying that, Zuo Zhong walked into the store with a frown on his face and found that the agents were digging through the walls and emptying cabinets. So he went to Zhang Anshi's bedroom with his hands behind his back and carefully looked at the small room of less than ten square meters.
I saw a wooden bed and a set of tables, chairs and benches in the corner of the room. The drawer of the table had been opened, and there was nothing inside except a few pencils. Apparently the target left very calmly.
Looking at the blackened brazier on the ground, all the agents present gave up their intention to continue the investigation. In a scene carefully cleaned by professional intelligence personnel, the possibility of them finding clues was very low.
Zuo Zhong silently walked to the brazier and crossed his arms and looked at it for a while. Then, under everyone's gaze, he knelt down, took out a pen and poked the ashes that turned into a ball of black mud. His expression looked very solemn.
In fact, he breathed a long sigh of relief. Zhang Anshi's method of destroying the information was very professional. Not to mention that in this era, even in later generations with advanced physical evidence technology, such completely damaged evidence cannot be restored.
Although he did not leave any fingerprints on the warning letter, he covered his face when communicating with the beggar who delivered the letter, and only relied on gestures to communicate, but he was not afraid of ten thousand, he was afraid of the worst. Only when the letter was gone could he be truly safe.
It's indeed a bit risky to take action personally this time. The problem is that no one knows the Secret Service's surveillance arrangements for Cheng Ji, personnel patrol rules and shift change times better than him. There is no need to let Old K and other comrades take risks.
Thinking of this, Zuo Zhong moved something in his mind and put something directly at the bottom of the brazier from the space. He once again picked up the ashes with the pen, and suddenly stopped while searching for it. He exclaimed in a tone of great surprise.
"Eh? Quick! Tweezers!"
The agents who were in a disappointed mood were stunned when they heard this. Shen Dongxin reacted quickly and quickly grabbed the tool from the forensics officer and handed it to Zuo Zhong's hand lightly without even daring to express his anger.
Not only him, but others were also cautious. Several people came to the window and closed it, because the evidence that had been burned by the fire was extremely fragile and might be wiped out by a strong wind.
Zuo Zhong didn't care about his men's actions. He pretended to tweezer out a small piece of paper with torn edges, and deliberately held it up high to identify it under the light so that the agents around him could see it clearly.
"Deputy Director, it's in Japanese!"
After Tongsuo was smoked by a kerosene lamp mixed with soot at Tentou Temple, he probably awakened some extraordinary ability. He was the first to see clearly the content on the piece of paper stained black by sewage, and immediately shouted loudly.
After his reminder, others took a closer look, and sure enough they saw a few Japanese words. The Secret Service, especially the Intelligence Section, understands Japanese as the most basic requirement, and someone immediately read out the meaning.
"Shanghai... take action?"
The number of words is small but it explains everything. Zhang Anshi is indeed a Japanese spy. Otherwise, why would there be Japanese words in the documents he destroyed? With this as evidence, the case is half solved.
The remaining half depends on Gu Qi. While they are acting, another group of personnel is arresting members of the research team of the Cryptozoology Institute. The focus is on the leader of the research team, Chen Shi, a spy who is deeply lurking.
After putting the "important evidence" into the evidence bag and leaving a team of people to guard Cheng Ji and his assistant, Zuo Zhong led people non-stop to the compound at No. 7, Yin Yangying Road, where there were more suspects and accidents were more likely to occur.
Moreover, the cryptographic interpretation center is in a sensitive position, and the military is responsible for access control. If there is a misunderstanding between the two parties during the operation, it may lead to a vicious conflict. The person must be cut off quickly and brought back to the Secret Service as soon as possible.
But sometimes you are afraid of what will happen. As soon as the convoy arrived at the gate of the translation office, Zuo Zhong saw a shocking scene. A group of armed military police blocked the door and prevented Gu Qi and the suspect from leaving.
"What the hell, I don't care if you are the Secret Service or some bullshit Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. The order I received is to ensure the safety of this place. No one is allowed to come or go at will. I advise you to release the person immediately and get out.
Otherwise, I will let you have a taste of the power of the machine gun. Brothers, show them what we are doing, lest anyone think that I am scaring him, load the bullets, and shoot on my command. "
A military police captain wearing a steel helmet stood on the roadblock with one foot and pointed at Gu Qi and yelled at him. Before the man could finish his words, several soldiers lay down behind the bunker carrying the Czech style and skillfully pulled the bolts of their guns.
"Click~"
"Click~"
This action angered the secret agents who were performing official duties. PPKs and Thomsons were quickly loaded and pointed at the military police. The citizens watching the excitement fled in fright. Heipi who came after hearing the news even ran away.
Zuo Zhong, who was in the car, looked angry, pushed open the door and got out of the car. The accompanying operators also jumped out of the car and surrounded the other party. The scene was extremely quiet for a while, and more than a hundred shots were about to be fired at any time.
Seeing the deputy director coming, Gu Qi inside the door felt mixed. He was happy to have support, but worried that this was the second time that something happened to him as soon as he led the team to perform a task. Last time it was Cao Gang, this time it was Cao Gang military police.
He secretly swore that he would bring enough people with him next time he went out in the field. This kind of thing would not happen a third time. The dignified head of the intelligence section was blocked several times. It was embarrassing to spread the news. He would be shameless.
Compared with Gu Qi's complicated emotions, the military police captain only felt regret. Who would have thought that the secret service support would come so quickly. The young man in the lead seemed to be a big shot. He really let someone get killed.
Why is the Secret Service concerned about the impact and not daring to make a big deal out of things? Why is it that they just need to snatch the person back and let them handle other matters? Bullshit, people are about to shoot, and there is not even a trace of the real owner here.
"What are you doing? Put down the gun!"
At this moment, Wen Yuqing, the director of the cryptographic interpretation institute, and Wang Weiqing, the deputy director, ran quickly from the office. Wen Yuqing, who weighed more than two hundred pounds, was like a rubber ball, jumping up and down, waving his right hand and shouting loudly.
The gendarmerie captain's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped down the slope to ask his soldiers to put down their guns. After muttering a few words to Wen Yuqing, he led the gendarmerie to the side and decided not to get involved in this muddy water.
Zuo Zhong glanced at this person, remembering this fool who couldn't see the situation clearly, and then walked calmly in front of the director and deputy director of the Interpretation and Interpretation Institute, reached out and took out a piece of paper, and looked at the two of them with a serious look. read out.
“In accordance with the order of Director Dai of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, I, the deputy director of the Secret Service, am responsible for investigating the leak of the Yangtze River Blockage Plan, and relevant departments must fully cooperate.
Now there is sufficient evidence to show that the person who leaked the secret is in the research group of your institute. Please give your brother a face and let him go. Don't make it difficult for me, otherwise I won't mind killing people in Jinling City. "
After he said the cruel words, he raised his chin slightly and said arrogantly: "The leader also knows about this matter, so whether you agree or not, I will definitely take him away today."
"this……"
Wen Yuqing hesitated when he heard someone's name, then looked at his deputy Wang Weiqing, who was blushing with anger. Considering that his arms could not hold his thighs, he finally nodded helplessly and gave the answer.
"It is necessary to cooperate with the work, but our interpretation office requires a hearing, and your office is not allowed to torture these technical personnel at will. Otherwise, I will quit my job as the director, and I will take the lawsuit to the highest level."
"No problem. Director Wen and Deputy Director Wang are welcome to visit and study at the Secret Service. We are all a family. If there is anything we can't talk about openly, come here, find a good car to take the two officers to Hong Gong Temple. .”
Zuo Zhong smiled slightly and did not even look at the members of the research team. Instead, he took a deep look at the deputy director Wang Weiqing. His intuition told him that what Gu Qi had just encountered was probably inseparable from this person.
On the other side, Wang Weiqing felt uncomfortable when he saw him like this, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake. He coughed twice and quietly moved behind Wen Yuqing, blocking the other party's view.
Seeing this scene, the thoughtful Zuo Zhong was unfazed. He grinned and gave Wang Weiqing a brighter smile. He turned around and strode into the car. After sitting down, he squinted his eyes and said only two words to the driver.
"Set off!"
