"That monk Yuanhui was caught!"
Huang Cheng's news made the three of them feel a little relieved.
"How were you caught? Didn't you run away?"
Chu Zhi asked somewhat surprised.
Huang Chenghui reported: "This demon monk was originally planning to run away, but unfortunately he was a flower monk and had to bring his concubine... He was so long-winded, which wasted time."
The report left everyone speechless.
The person was caught, and the next interrogation was conducted by Ma Xiaoguang and Qi Zhi.
"Tell me about your own situation."
The question was asked by Chu Zhilai, who was the surgeon, while Ma Xiaoguang just smoked a cigarette and watched quietly.
Hua Monk Yuan Hui timidly replied: "Poor monk... ah no, my name is Yuan Hui, my lay name is Tian Agou. I was born in the fifth year of the Republic of China and became a monk in Tianning Temple in the sixteenth year of the Republic of China..."
"Don't avoid the important and take the easy. You know what we want to ask."
Chu Zhi sneered and said in a solemn tone.
"Zhiyuan and I have known each other for three years. At that time, he spoke authentic Hangzhou dialect. I didn't know that he was from Neon."
"Zhiyuan's pseudonym is Xu Zhitong. He is in the Rendan business. He is very generous and has many merits and virtues..."
"As we went back and forth, I gradually became familiar with Zhiyuan and became his spy in Ningbo. Tianning Temple originally allowed many lay people to meditate, so we also left a Zen temple for him in the back."
Yuanhui poured beans out of his bamboo tube, explaining in detail how he and Zhiyuan got to know each other.
Zhu Zhi and Ma Xiaoguang exchanged a look, nodded and continued to ask: "Tell me what you did for Zhiyuan?"
"Tianli Conscience! Sirs, I provided a Zen monastery for Zhiyuan and did not participate in other matters..."
"If I lie, I will go to the tongue-pulling hell after death, and let the Rakshasa demons nail my tongue, and I will never be reincarnated!"
Speaking of helping Zhiyuan, Fang Hui immediately called Chong Tianqu and swore that he was not involved in espionage.
At the end of the sentence, Yuan Hui couldn't help but beg for mercy with tears streaming down her face. If she hadn't been tied up, she would have knelt down and begged for mercy.
Chu Zhi was unmoved and asked expressionlessly: "Last question, since you were not involved in those things about Zhiyuan, why did you run away? And you brought your concubine with you?"
With tears streaming down her face, Yuan Hui replied in a trembling voice: "Two officers, you are carrying out tasks with guns. Besides, I have a relationship with Zhiyuan after all, and now is an extraordinary time. I'm afraid!"
Seeing that Monk Yuanhui had always been in a group, and really couldn't squeeze out much profit, Tongzhi felt helpless and ordered his brothers below to take him down.
"Sir Ma, this is not going to be easy. Now that all the clues have been cut off, it will be very difficult to search for the Japanese spies in Hangzhou again."
Chu Zhi changed his cold demeanor during the interrogation and said to Ma Xiaoguang helplessly.
"Brother Xu, don't be too harsh. We were able to thwart the two raids planned by the Japanese spies for many days, which is considered a great achievement. Don't be greedy for too much, and the future will be long."
Ma Xiaoguang handed over a Hardman and said to Chu Zhi with a smile.
"It seems that Monk Hua really doesn't know too much about Zhiyuan. If he stays with us, it will take up space and waste manpower. Why don't we just let him go today?"
Chu Zhi asked Ma Xiaoguang uncertainly.
"Brother Xu, you can make your own decision. Don't look at me for everything. We are cooperating. Your superior in your hometown is Deputy Station Chief Wu."
Ma Xiaoguang lit a cigarette by himself and smiled at Chu Zhi nonchalantly.
Hearing this, Chu Zhi said politely: "The main reason is that Ningbo Station has just been purged by Shangfeng, so I don't feel confident in my humble position..."
Ma Xiaoguang said: "You have to let people do things. To do our espionage work, the more you do, the more mistakes you will make. If you do less, you will make fewer mistakes. If you don't do more, it will be better..."
"The problem is, if you don't do it, what's the difference between you and those old men who live in a corpse position, so you'd better not do this job."
"well said!"
At this time, a voice of praise came from outside the door, interrupting their conversation.
What opened the door was a man in his thirties, with a Chinese character face and a hunched head.
Deputy Station Director Wu’s face looked familiar, and he looked a bit like Station Director Wu from Tianjin Station in the later spy drama "Insidious"!
"Welcome, Team Leader Ma, I'm at Ningbo Station Wu Chengzhang."
As Wu Chengzhang spoke, he extended his right hand to Ma Xiaoguang.
After shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries, Wu Chengzhang finally expressed his stance and let Hua Monk Yuanhui go first.
When the real owner arrived, Tzu Zhi naturally retreated behind the scenes, bowed his head and went to find Huang Cheng and Fatty to deal with the aftermath of the arrest.
Office of the Deputy Webmaster.
Ma Xiaoguang and Wu Chengzhang were talking to each other and said, "Stationmaster Wu, don't be too polite. We are brothers. If the stationmaster is older, I will take the liberty of calling you Brother Wu..."
"That's a big thank you to my brother. 'Master Ma' is indeed well-deserved. As soon as we came to Ningbo, we made extraordinary moves. We not only fought two beautiful blocking battles, but also destroyed a village where the Japanese invaders were entrenched. Even my brother and I followed It’s all light!”
Stationmaster Wu chuckled and praised Ma Xiaoguang, his words full of envy.
"Brother Wu is overrated. I just have better luck. I still have to rely on everyone's sincere unity and cooperation..."
Ma Xiaoguang's old face turned slightly red and he quickly became polite and humble.
It's not that his consciousness is high, but that he has a lot of advantages due to various reasons, and it's not good to always be greedy for God's success.
However, Wu Chengzhang found Ma Xiaoguang more pleasing to his eyes.
As an old man from the former Secret Service Department and now the Military Intelligence Department, Wu Chengzhang has long heard of the reputation of "Lord Ma" for his generosity.
I'm afraid that the imperial envoy will take credit, be arrogant, act blindly, and give random orders, which will make it difficult for him to do his job.
Now Ma Xiaoguang has set his position very clearly and his tone is very low, which reassures Deputy Station Director Wu who was originally a little worried.
"Brother Ma is really young and promising. The great cause of the War of Resistance requires young people like me to bravely shoulder heavy responsibilities..."
People in sedan chairs were carrying people, and stationmaster Wu started to speak good words when he saw Ma Xiaoguang coming up.
Webmaster Wu has a part-time job as the editor-in-chief of a newspaper, and his literary talent is excellent.
The two of them started talking to each other with each other's words.
"Dong dong dong..."
However, the harmonious atmosphere was quickly ruined by a rapid knock on the door.
Huang Cheng came in. He was sweating profusely and was out of breath. As soon as he entered the office, he saluted hurriedly and reported: "Two sirs, there is a big case! The police station just informed us that the Anti-Japanese Salvation Congress President Qu was killed!”
Wu Chengzhang's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he quickly said to Ma Xiaoguang: "President Qu has contributed a lot to the cause of the War of Resistance, and he has close friendship with high-level officials of the government..."
"This matter is no small matter. We must quickly find out the situation and find the murderer!"
As Wu Chengzhang spoke, he quickly packed up and rushed to the scene.
