"How's it going? Did you gain anything?" Zhou Sen returned to his home on Coats Street and asked Su's special "intelligence room"
At the temporary station, Anna came to greet them.
Upstairs, my office said.
Zhou Sen turned Anthony's study upstairs into his own office. It was originally his own place, so it didn't feel strange at all.
The small living room outside became Anna's office. As for the offices of other people, they were all downstairs.
The attic is cleared out.
The radio station was temporarily placed on it and it was prepared. No one came to check it, not the Japanese, let alone the Manchukuo.
Zhou Sen's original room was divided into two rooms, one each for Nina and Han Songyue, while Anna lived in Anthony's original room.
This is her private territory and no one can enter.
This is how the second floor is allocated.
In addition to the balcony, the second floor also has a large terrace. The space and area are naturally much smaller than those on the first floor.
In addition to the living room and dining room, as well as the kitchen and storage room, there are two guest rooms on the first floor. Yin Linna originally lived in one of the rooms, and the other was used as a real guest room.
Now, it is all used as an office, to be allocated. The restaurant is still a restaurant, but it has the function of a conference room.
The living room is the largest in the whole house. In order to accommodate more people, the sofa, coffee table and cabinets can only be temporarily removed.
Find a place to store it first. After the "Intelligence Room" is moved, the place still needs to be restored to its original state.
"Yes, otherwise my trip would not have been in vain." Zhou Sen nodded.
"What have you gained? Tell me what you have learned?"
"Go get me a glass of water first." Zhou Sen sat down, smiled and ordered.
"Okay, I'll get you some water." Anna knew that Zhou Sen was deliberately trying to pique her curiosity, but she couldn't help it, because she was so curious.
He poured a glass of water for Zhou Sen and brought it over.
"You can talk now."
"He mentioned a person, someone you definitely know but wouldn't expect." Zhou Sen said.
"Someone I didn't expect?" Anna frowned, but her mind was still turning to someone she didn't expect but knew.
She had such a candidate in her mind and was related to Bai Tailai. For a moment, she really couldn't think of which one it was.
"I can't think of it, just tell me."
"Zheng Nan."
"What, that Brother Nan, the owner of the old Fengtian tailor shop, what does he have to do with Bai Tailai?" Anna was extremely surprised.
"Zheng Nan is the cousin of Bai Tailai's wife. Of course, I don't know how much of this level of relationship there is." Zhou Sen chuckled, "When I found out that they had this level of relationship, I was also surprised. .”
"They actually have such a relationship, so there is nothing to suspect about Wen Lin and Bai Yan going to the old Fengtian tailor shop?" Anna said, "Our suspicions are simply in the wrong direction?"
"On the contrary, it was Zheng Nan who suggested Bai Yan avoid Shanghai. He even played a key role in it."
"Zheng Nan is from Fengtian. According to his resume, it seems that he has never left the customs. How could he suggest Bai Yan to go to Shanghai?"
"That's right, although Bai Tailai explained that he sent Bai Yan so far because he was afraid that if she was in Manchuria, there would be trouble once the eucalyptus broke out, but if she was in Shanghai, she couldn't control it. After all, there was no need to worry about it. It is not under the jurisdiction of Manchukuo, but as parents, they are not worried at all when sending their only daughter to such a far away place. If Bai Tailai's wife goes with him, mother and daughter will take care of each other. It's understandable, but if Bai Yan goes alone, any parent will be worried. Even if they have an acquaintance in Shanghai to take care of her, can this acquaintance take care of Bai Yan as his own daughter?"
"Your analysis makes sense. Bai Yan is a girl, and she's not bad looking. She has never traveled far in her life. Why are Bai Tailai and his wife not worried at all when they suddenly go to such a far place?"
"An even stranger thing is that Bai Yan has a boyfriend in Shanghai. Sometimes even her parents may not tell such a private matter, but Zheng Nan, her cousin, knows everything about it, and Bai Yan has a boyfriend. The new boyfriend, Bai Tailai and his wife will not publicize it everywhere. After all, Bai Yan and Wen Lin exchanged posts in the past, but how did Wen Lin learn about this news in the correctional hospital? "
"You mean, Zheng Nan deliberately arranged for someone to send a message in?" Anna instantly understood what Zhou Sen suspected.
"But there are not many people in the Correctional Institution who have access to Wen Lin, and even fewer who can make him believe."
"You are right. The person who sent the message to Wen Lin must be someone he finds trustworthy. Who could this person be?" Zhou Sen nodded, "As far as the staff at the correctional hospital is concerned, Wen Lin He may not believe it, but if it is someone he trusts..."
"Hong Lianghui!"
"Assuming that this person is Hong Lianghui, where did the news about Hong Lianghui come from? He is in the Correctional Institution and will never come out unless there is something wrong with the internal personnel of the Correctional Institution..."
"There is another loophole!" Anna said suddenly.
"Brickyard!"
Zhou Sen nodded. It is true that the boss of the brick factory is Japanese, but not all the workers in the brick factory are thought prisoners from the Correctional Institution. There are also other workers. Although they work separately, they are not supervised. It is impossible to keep an eye on it all the time. As long as there is a moment of negligence, the information can be completely transmitted.
But this may not be Hong Lianghui, but several other people who were imprisoned in the Correctional Institution together, and they are all suspected.
Hong Lianghui was the biggest suspect because he was the last person to come into contact with Wen Lin, and Wen Lin was most likely to commit suicide in despair because of what Hong Lianghui said to him.
But this is all suspicion and speculation. Now unless the person who passed the information to Hong Lianghui is found, or Hong Lianghui takes the initiative to speak out.
However, since he mentioned "Zheng Nan", it means that he knows something inside, but why didn't he tell it directly...
"Let's go to Songhua School. I want to interrogate this Hong Lianghui again." Zhou Sen suddenly stood up when he thought of this.
"I'll go too." Anna raised her feet and followed.
We drove directly to Songhua School.
Kitano personally received the reception with great enthusiasm. Zhou Sen also handed him the wedding invitation for Full Moon Wine and asked him to come with him when the time came.
Kitano immediately agreed and said he would definitely go.
In the interrogation room, Zhou Sen saw Hong Lianghui. His mental state was not very good, maybe because of sadness. After all, his adoptive father passed away and he had no relatives in this world.
"Hong Lianghui, I gave you many opportunities and helped you with your adoptive father's funeral. In return, you should give me something. I didn't speak, so don't you want to take the initiative to talk to me?" Zhou Sen Just sitting like this, looking at Hong Lianghui opposite with his head hanging down, he asked.
"Officer Zhou, can you give me a cigarette?" Hong Lianghui slowly raised his head and asked.
Zhou Sen looked at the other person for three seconds, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, took out one, stood up, walked over, brought it to his mouth, and then took out a lighter and lit it for him.
"Thanks."
Hong Lianghui thanked him, and then continued to smoke three times with his head half-slouched. Almost a third of the cigarette was gone at once, and then he raised his head slightly and opened his mouth and said, "Someone is outside delivering a message to me. Tell Wen Lin the news, he asked me to tell Wen Lin about Bai Yan's engagement."
"Who is this guy?"
"I don't know, I only know that his name is: Brother Nan." Hong Lianghui said.
"But you directly pointed out to us that Brother Nan is Zheng Nan from the old Fengtian Tailor Shop?" Zhou Sen was very surprised, but Hong Lianghui directly named "Zheng Nan".
"I also made a guess. I'm not sure it's him because I heard Wen Lin say that the owner of the tailor shop that Bai Yan often goes to is called 'Brother Nan'." Hong Lianghui said, "What if I make a mistake?" Man, haven’t you wronged a good man?”
Zhou Sen nodded silently in his heart. Although this guy was dishonest, he still had a little conscience.
"Who sent you the message?"'
"I only met him once in the brick factory, and I never saw him again. Every time I found the note hidden under the brick according to the mark he gave me," Hong Lianghui said.
"If you see him again, can you still recognize him?" Zhou Sen asked.
"Yes." Hong Lianghui considered it for a moment and nodded seriously. At this time, the cigarette in his hand was just the butt.
Zhou Sen took out another cigarette from the cigarette case and refilled it for him.
I ordered it for him, but he refused, took it in his hand, put it under his nose, took a sip, and smiled coquettishly: "I'll save it for later."
"If you want to smoke, I can ask someone to give it to you. I will provide you with five sticks every day, is that enough?" Zhou Sen asked.
】
"Enough, enough."
Don't give too much at one time. If you give too much, you take yourself too seriously. Five dollars a day is a lot.
If Zhou Sen doesn't have anything to worry about, that's it. Once something happens, it's hard to talk about it.
But this is not a good habit and needs to be changed.
"If you were asked to go back to the brick factory, could you find him?" Zhou Sen asked.
"My actions are limited and I can only contact some people. If they avoid him..." Hong Lianghui said.
"You don't have to worry about this, I'll just make the arrangements." Zhou Sen said.
"As long as he is still in the brick factory, I will naturally recognize him." Hong Langhui said.
"Are you sure this person is not a correctional officer or have you never seen him in the correctional home?" Zhou Sen asked.
"I haven't seen him in the correctional hospital. He has dark skin, is thin, and is not tall. He speaks very fast and has a slight retroflex. He should not be a native of Bingcheng." Hong Lianghui said.
Zhou Sen asked people to get paper and pen, and based on Hong Lianghui's description, he made a simple portrait sketch profile.
"That's probably what it looks like. I don't remember it clearly, but if I see it again, I should be able to recognize it."
Hong Lianghui said after looking at Zhou Sen's sketch profile.
"Okay, thank you. This is a sign of repentance. I will write it in the report later and try to get a lighter sentence for you," Zhou Sen said.
Hong Lianghui moved his lips slightly, but did not say "thank you".
"This person has asked you to deliver information several times. What did he say each time?" Zhou Sen continued to ask.
"Three times, maybe. The first time, he asked me to deliver the message. He asked me to tell Wen Lin that Bai Yan was released on bail and returned home safely."
"The second time was a note. It said that Bai Yan was sent away by her parents and their engagement was cancelled."
"This is the third time. Let me tell Wen Lin that Bai Yan is engaged again."
"Does he know about Wen Lin's situation in the Correctional Institution?" Zhou Sen asked, if there is no purpose in sending information, then what is the purpose of sending it?
"I don't know about that. I'm just passing on information. I don't need to feed the information back to him."
"Do you think, among the few people you arrested, there are others who have contact with the outside world?" Zhou Sen asked after thinking about it for a moment.
"I don't know. Although Fan Di and I have a good relationship, when we arrived at the Correctional Institution, except for Wen Lin, I didn't have much communication with them." Hong Lianghui said.
"Are you afraid they will betray you?"
"Too much words lead to mistakes. In that case, I can only try my best to protect myself." Hong Lianghui hesitated and nodded.
"Okay, that's it for today. If you remember anything, you can tell me at any time." Zhou Sen said.
Zhou Sen went to meet several other people with the portrait sketch and profile, and they all said they had never seen this person and did not know him.
Zhou Sen couldn't tell whether it was truth or lies, so he had no choice but to go to the Correctional Institution first.
There is no such person in the Correctional Institution. This is what the dean personally told Zhou Sen.
So now it can basically be judged that this person got in touch with Hong Lianghui through the brick factory.
But why did he choose Hong Lianghui instead of others? You must know that he was not the only one who was forced to work in the brick factory at that time.
Moreover, Wen Lin was also in the brick factory, so he could directly communicate with Wen Lin and pass the information to Wen Lin through Hong Lianghui.
Once you catch this person, many of the middle joints will be clear.
Zhou Sendao didn't want to get to the bottom of this case, but Wen Lin's death made him feel a little pity.
If a young man dies in the hands of the Japanese invaders, he can still be called a "hero". If he dies due to the calculations of his own people, it is really inappropriate.
Why should Wen Lin die?
It’s nothing more than interests or emotional entanglements, and in this case, emotional entanglements are superficial things, while the deep ones are interests.
Wen Lin's status in the Iron-Blooded Society seems to be high, and he is most likely a core figure. Of course, it is also possible that he has some secrets. If he is arrested, and once he is revealed, the people behind it will be in danger.
In this case, killing people and silencing them is usually a common practice of the military, but it doesn't make sense. Wen Lin has gone crazy in the correctional institution, so what are the interests at stake for the people behind it to do this?
What's more, it doesn't make sense that someone can be killed just by waiting for a few pieces of news?
Unless Hong Lianghui lied, or concealed some details, or there were circumstances that were not currently grasped.
Wen Lin was caught dead and no one from his family came to visit him. It seems that only his uncle came forward once. After he committed suicide, his body was handed over to this uncle to take back.
His parents never showed up.
This is a bit weird. Even if Wen Lin is not the only son in the family, he is still a son. How can there be such an indifferent relationship between father and son?
