The staff at Huangshan Official Residence were sitting or standing in the dormitory, looking at the spies walking around outside and feeling uneasy. No one knew what was going on, and they all talked in low voices.
Some people said that a spy had been caught, and some said that Japanese people ran into the official residence. The voices became louder and louder, and the spies outside the door ignored them and allowed them to make random guesses.
In one of the rooms, several official residence handymen were so furious that they almost started to fight, but a middle-aged man with a simple face next to them saw this and quickly stopped them.
"Okay, okay, we're all brothers, what's the point of arguing? Things outside have nothing to do with us."
After listening to his persuasion, the quarreling handymen stopped. One of them said unconvinced: "Lao Qiu, I'm only looking at your face, otherwise I will kill this turtle son."
"Okay, okay. Let's go back and wait until the agents leave. You can go ask the attendants' room and you will know what happened." Lao Qiu, whom the other party referred to, said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, everyone felt that it made sense, so they stopped arguing and set up the dragon gate formation again. The patrolling agent glanced at the window and continued patrolling without saying anything.
Lao Qiu glanced out the window, his eyes rolled around twice, and he felt relieved. He returned to his bunk and lay down with a smile, crossing his legs and looking at the handyman with a mocking look on his face.
He found the behavior of these colleagues very ridiculous. National affairs had nothing to do with them. Whether they were in charge of the government or the Japanese, they were still at the bottom.
If you have this time, it's better to find ways to make more money and be happy. Thinking of that charming half-closed door, Lao Qiu licked his lips, his face full of memories.
"Come out and work, clean Yunxiu Tower." Just as he was immersed in "happy time", someone shouted through the door.
When everyone heard the sound, they immediately stood up reluctantly, picked up brooms and other tools in the corner and opened the door. Lao Qiu was sneaking around at the end, following the team out.
The handyman's dormitory was naturally not too luxurious, and the door could only accommodate one person. People lined up one after another to walk out of the door towards Yunxiu Tower.
When it was Lao Qiu's turn, he made sure that no one else acted abnormally. He finally relaxed and stepped out of the threshold. Then two agents standing nearby suddenly jumped up and knocked him down.
"search!"
"Remove the joints quickly!"
As soon as the agent took control of the person, Wu Chunyang came out of the next room and gave two orders. After saying that, he walked up to Lao Qiu, grabbed his hair, exposed his face, and asked sternly.
"Did you install the machine in the pigeon loft? I ask you, did you install it?"
"Yes...I was just pretending."
Lao Qiu lost his previous pride and replied tremblingly. His whole body trembled and his pants became damp. This made the agent who was searching him frown, but his men did not stop their movements.
After a quick check that Qiu Dacai did not carry poison or weapons, and asked people to check the person's personal belongings and guard the scene, Wu Chunyang took him to Zuo Zhong and Wu Xiwen.
"Is this the goal?"
Zuo Zhong asked, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he observed the reactions of Wu Xiwen and Qiu Dacai. Qiu Dacai didn't seem to recognize each other, but kept begging for mercy. It seemed that the two had never met.
Wu Xiwen's reaction was also very dull, and he didn't even look at Qiu Dacai. Now that he had found the signal guidance station, it was not too difficult to follow the clues to find the person who installed it. Wu Xiwen should know this.
Sniffling, Zuo Zhong waved his hand in disgust: "Take this guy who peed his pants down, interrogate him properly, and control his family records and the half-open door."
"yes."
Several little spies dragged Qiu Dacai away, who was crying like a ghost and a wolf. They also left a water mark on the ground. This was urine again. It is unimaginable that such a coward dared to be a spy.
After disposing of the garbage, Zuo Zhong said: "These people have no intelligence value. You are allowed to use any method to confirm the confession as soon as possible. There must be no mistakes in the report."
Wu Chunyang nodded to express his understanding. After checking the details of Ban Menmen and Qiu Dacai, these two people had clear backgrounds and should be ordinary traitors. The Japanese would not reveal too much information to them.
This kind of person betrays the nation for money or other interests. He has no faith or will at all. As long as he gets on the interrogation chair, he will tell the truth honestly. The interrogation is indeed not difficult.
The real difficulty is Wu Xiwen, who has been lurking in the Republic of China for more than 20 years. This person is more stubborn than imagined. Even now, he still remains silent. I am afraid that he will have to be severely beaten or even injected with veritaserum to get him to speak.
This can be seen from the fact that he did not mention his family once after his arrest. The so-called wife and children were just tools for him to disguise his identity. Wu Xiwen did not care about his life or death at all, so he stayed in the main hall of Chongli Society every day and never went home.
Wu Chunyang, who had a headache more and more as he thought about it, whispered his worries. Zuo Zhong, who had already planned it, smiled and did not answer. He walked to Wu Xiwen and was silent for a while before speaking slowly.
"Mr. Wu, I have read your file. In order to make your identity look more credible, your country's intelligence agency massacred an entire village. How old were you at that time, 22 years old, right?
You are not young at this age. According to your Japanese law, women can get married at the age of 16 and men at the age of 18. Didn't you leave some blood for your family before performing your mission? "
After hearing this, Wu Xiwen lowered his head slightly and subconsciously avoided Zuo Zhong's eyes. It was obvious that what he just said had hit something, but he still did not speak and passively resisted the interrogation.
Zuo Zhong seemed not to notice Wu Xiwen's little move, and said with a smile: "If I guess correctly, you have another family in Japan, so you don't care about Yamashiro's wife and children, and you are not afraid of threats.
Before you lurk, someone should have told you that if one day you are arrested, as long as you do not reveal important information, your family will not be liquidated, and they will even be better off than before.
On the contrary, once you completely surrender to us, they will be thrown into prison and receive the most cruel punishment. Your entire family will also suffer humiliation and will never be able to raise their heads.
In addition, in terms of blood relationship, compared with the descendants who have the blood of the so-called Yamato nation, your children in the mountain city are nothing. Am I right, ah, what can I do about this? "
After speaking, he pretended to be troubled and asked Wu Chunyang: "Chunyang, let me test you. If you kidnap a rich man's son, but the other person has countless children, what method will you use to get the money?"
"kindness......."
Wu Chunyang thought for a while and said decisively: "Catch all his children, or kill all the other children, leaving only one to inherit the family business. The other party will definitely give money then."
"Pah~pah~pah"
Zuo Zhong clapped his hands softly and turned around to ask Wu Xiwen: "Did you hear that? My men helped me think of a good idea. If you only have your wife and children in Shancheng left, wouldn't they be valuable?
Let me remind you again, we can get the day exchange plan, and naturally we can also find your family. Don't think that they are safe in Japan. The power of the military is greater than you think. "
Wu Xiwen was very calm in the face of the threat. The leakage of the day-changing plan indeed proved that there was a mole in the government at the top of the empire, but his family was protected by the General Staff Headquarters and nothing would happen.
Thinking of his children and wife far away in his hometown, he tried to anger Zuo Zhong: "Mr. Zuo, don't waste your efforts. No one knows where they are, and you can't get close to that place.
I advise you to kill me directly. As a glorious soldier of the Japanese Empire, it is my honor to devote myself to His Majesty and the Empire. I will not confess. What a black card! Half a year! "
Zuo Zhong sighed, couldn't these Japanese spies use a new word? If he was tired of shouting this sentence all day long, he immediately stretched out his little finger to press his ears, and said in a strange tone.
"Tsk, tsk, why are you shouting so loudly? Your locusts can't hear you, and your life is in my hands. It's not up to you to decide when to die. It depends on my mood.
I have warned you before, if you are not honest, I will make you spend the rest of your life in pain. Mr. Wu, you don’t think I’m joking with you, do you? "
After asking the other party coldly, Zuo Zhong looked at Gui Youguang and the little agent who came in holding three signal guidance stations. His expression changed instantly and he returned to smiling and pointed at the door.
"Mr. Wu, look."
Wu Xiwen looked up, his eyes stayed on the machine for a moment and turned to the side. He regretted it in his heart. He only needed to persist for two more days, just two days, and the task would be completed.
He now only hopes that the General Staff Headquarters will treat his family preferentially, raise his children, and allow them to join the army and serve the empire when they reach adulthood, as agreed.
Zuo Zhong noticed the death look in his eyes, patted the signal guidance platform and said to himself: "You have been delaying for the past two days, I guess the next bombing is not far away.
Otherwise, you would not have voluntarily surrendered when captured. All you wanted to do was use your life to cover the second bombing and secure a prosperous future for your family. "
“It’s so sad to sing and cry~”
He sighed, and then looked directly at Wu Xiwen with a grin showing his teeth: "Wu Zhangqi, tell me, if I find a dangerous place near the official residence to install these three pieces of equipment, will your plane be fooled?
If I deploy a few more anti-aircraft artillery regiments nearby and suddenly open fire while the bombers are diving at low altitude, if one or two of them come down, will the General Staff Headquarters think you have surrendered and liquidate your family? "
"Baga! Despicable! Shameless!"
Wu Xiwen, who was struggling to his death, cursed loudly, and several spies behind him almost stopped him. This shows how angry he is, and it also proves that he is afraid.
After getting the answer he wanted, Zuo Zhong smiled with satisfaction. Catching a few spies wouldn't make the Japanese top brass feel bad, but shooting down a few expensive bombers would!
Because the death of a few people is nothing more than sending a few more postcards. Bombers cost a lot of money to purchase, and the Japanese are very clear about this.
