"Sir, those two signals appeared again. This time the transmission time was longer, giving us the opportunity to lock them."
"Are you sure?" Zuo Tengying asked.
"The China Eastern Railway family area has basically locked down a small area. Now we only need to investigate these few houses. When the next report is sent, we will dispatch arrests and seize both the people and the stolen goods." The adjutant said, " At Sankeshu, we can only determine a range at the moment, and we need several more signals before we can lock it in more accurately."
"Are they still in contact recently?"
"I don't know, but the frequency of their contacts is irregular, so we can't determine when they will contact us next. We can only listen continuously."
"Inform the Special High School Division that once the location is locked and the time is right for arrest, arrest him immediately!" Sato Hide ordered.
"Hayin!"
…
The morgue of the police station.
The forensic doctor in the hall, Lao Mo, is an old forensic doctor with twenty years of experience. Lin Dakuan trusts him very much.
Because he is Chinese and has a good relationship with Lin Dakuan. After all, who does not use forensic medicine to investigate and solve the disease?
Having a good relationship with the forensic doctor will save a lot of effort.
"Old Mo, how are you? What can you tell from these two corpses?" Lin Dakuan asked Lao Mo.
"The two men are about the same age, this one may be older. I checked their fingers and soles of their feet. This one's soles are wide, the arch is slightly flat, and a section of the calf is black. It's obvious that they worked on the ship for a long time, maybe He's a fisherman, or maybe a stevedore at the dock. This guy wears shoes all the time and his skin is better. Also, he has a faint smell of tobacco. I judge that his profession may give you tobacco. related……"
"The total number of workers and fishermen in Bingcheng Wharf is estimated to be tens of thousands, and the number of employees and workers in tobacco companies and factories is estimated to be thousands. But if these two people are not from Bingcheng at all, it will be even harder to find out. !" Li Shaotang said.
"Then we can only try it first, put up notices and issue a joint investigation notice."
"In fact, the joint investigation notice has been sent out to docks, factories, and restaurants. So far, no news has been reported back." Zou Shuxun said.
"Is there any news from Xiaoshagou?"
"No, we sent the sought-after photos two days ago. If they were really from over there, there would have been news. I'm afraid these two people arrived at Xiaoshagou from other places first. And then the car on Xiaoshagou is like looking for a needle in a haystack." Zou Shuxun responded.
"Jin Gong's decision to return to Ice City was within two or three days, but the other party was actually able to formulate an assassination plan and arrange manpower in such a short period of time. In addition to being well-informed, it is enough to show that this is by no means an ordinary organization. It is also necessary to predict the news in advance. In fact, the opponent's planning and arrangement time is shorter. I dare to conclude that this organization can only be done in Bingcheng or Xinjing, and it is impossible to do it elsewhere." Li Shaotang analyzed, "Moreover, Jin Although the news about Mr. Jin’s return to Ice City is not a secret, not many people know about it. Just like us, the news may be a little delayed, but the organization that planned to assassinate Mr. Jin knew about it before us. This shows that they It has deep tentacles in intelligence. If this organization is in Bingcheng, then it must have existed for a long time. If it is in Xinjing, then I don’t know how to describe it."
"If we were in Xinjing, we wouldn't investigate, but if we were in Xinjing, then such an organization would be right under our noses, and we would be completely ignorant. That would be really scary," Lin Dakuan said.
"This matter is not for you and me to consider. Anyway, we only have these clues at hand now. We can only investigate according to these clues. The Qin family is obviously not willing to cooperate with the investigation, so why don't we pass the responsibility?"
Lin Dakuan's eyes lit up when he heard this. This plan was to investigate the organization behind the "sought-after", and investigating the source of the "leak" was one of the ways.
When Mr. Jin came to Bingcheng, he would definitely inform his daughter and son-in-law first, and the Bingcheng government would find out later.
Of course, Jin Ronggui is a high-ranking official of the Puppet Manchukuo, and his travels, even personal ones, must be reported.
Therefore, Xinjing will naturally know about it, and the Japanese monitor the words and deeds of senior puppet Manchukuo officials.
The Japanese may know about Jin Ronggui's movements faster than the top management of the Puppet Manchukuo.
"Let's go, I'll report to Akiyama Nosuke." Lin Dakuan thought about it briefly and decided to report to Akiyama Nosuke first.
…
In Akiyama Nosuke's office, Lin Dakuan's eloquent report lasted a full quarter of an hour, and he investigated the case from three directions. However, all three directions now encountered resistance and could not continue.
From the gunman himself, there are not many clues, taking photos, and issuing joint investigation reports. Not only Bingcheng, but also Xiaoshagou where the gunman got into the car, and Xinjing, there is almost no information returned.
From the source of the news leak, he did not have the authority to control the Xinjing side. He went to the Qin family and encountered a weak point in Bingcheng. He did not say anything when he saw Jin Ronggui, and did not even have a chance to ask questions. .
There is also the source of the gunman's weapons, which is the least likely, because it is impossible to buy a gun temporarily. If the gun and ammunition have been prepared long ago, it will not be found at all. What's more, this assassination operation is more like It was a temporary operation.
If you buy a gun on the spot, you will not expose yourself directly, but the leader of the organization behind it is too clueless.
In conclusion.
This case is difficult to investigate. If the gunman is not killed and only one person is left alive, it will be easier to deal with. As it is now, it is completely a dead end.
Isn't it possible to guess?
Bingcheng is the spy capital of the Far East, and there are many spy organizations. Jin Ronggui has served in Bingcheng for many years, so he has offended a lot of people.
The underground party of the Communist Party of China, the anti-corruption group, the military command... This society, that one knows how to do it, there are really very few people who want his life.
However, there are really not many people who have the ability to do this.
Of course, you can use the elimination method to select a few candidates. The problem is that checking and breaking the case is not a multiple-choice question.
Even if you choose someone as a suspect to attack, you still have to find the talent. These people and organizations have hidden themselves well, allowing you to find them easily. Why would they wait until now to take action?
This result was unexpected by Akiyama Nosuke. You may say that Lin Dakuan was not careful, but he was careful and did everything he needed to do and checked everything that needed to be investigated.
You can't let him fabricate a result out of thin air.
Of course, he actually didn't want Lin Dakuan to really break the news. The so-called three-day deadline was just a gesture at the meeting.
He was cooperating with Kageyama's plan.
"In this case, I will communicate with Mr. Jin. You wait for my notification and be ready to go again at any time." Akiyama Nosuke did not embarrass Lin Dakuan.
"Yes, if you want me to go there again, my subordinates have no complaints." Lin Dakuan nodded hurriedly, "We also conducted a detailed trace inspection on the assassination scene and found no clues. The report has been sent to Secretary Jin. I’ve forwarded it to you, please take a look back.”
"Okay, I understand." Akiyama Nosuke nodded and waved his hand, indicating that Lin Dakuan could go out.
Lin Dakuan didn't say anything more, bowed, turned and left.
Akiyama Nosuke is not a fool. In Lin Dakuan's last sentence, he specifically mentioned the trace inspection report to him. Logically speaking, it was nothing special and he could just skip it. There was no need to remind him to take a look.
It's obvious that the trace inspection report has content, but it's just not convenient to say it out.
With a hint of doubt, Akiyama Nosuke pulled out the trace inspection report that was buried under many documents.
After scanning a few lines, he realized something was wrong. As an intelligence worker and criminal investigation expert, there was nothing wrong with the words on the trace inspection report, but there was a lot more information behind the words.
It turned out that this guy had already seen some clues, but because of his identity, he couldn't tell them directly.
This guy's mind is really delicate and a little cunning.
The mastermind behind this incident is Kageyama Jiro. He is just cooperating with Kageyama Jiro's work. Now that he encounters a problem, he will naturally go to Kageyama Jiro to discuss countermeasures.
At the Fukuhara Chess Club, Kageyama Jiro has ordered tea and is waiting for Akiyama Nosuke's arrival.
Akiyama Nosuke sat down, was a little polite, and then repeated what Lin Dakuan reported to him to Kageyama Jiro.
"This is my negligence. The layout of the scene was too rough, and he actually saw it." Kageyama Jiro was slightly surprised.
"It was found in the on-site trace inspection report. Anyone with a little experience in criminal investigation can see it, and it shows whether it was used carefully." Akiyama Nosuke said with a smile.
"As long as our opponent doesn't see it, or in other words, he obviously knows it but pretends not to know it." Kageyama Jiro said.
"How to say?"
"The person who contacted me suggested that I hand this case to Zhou Sen for investigation." Kageyama Nosuke said.
"What does this mean?" Akiyama Nosuke asked very puzzled.
"I can't guess. Are you trying to use Zhou Sen to investigate his wife?" Jiro Kageyama analyzed.
"Doesn't this prove that Zhou Sen doesn't know Bai Yulan's identity at all?"
"No, Bai Yulan's identity is not certain. This is just a one-sided statement from this mysterious person. All I received was his anonymous letter."
"But you tend to believe him in your heart, right?" Akiyama Nosuke asked.
"When Ma Wenhan died, it was indeed Bai Yulan who inherited most of his family business. However, she is a little girl and I am afraid she is not capable of leading the people under Ma Wenhan. Therefore, she can leave and disperse, even if she is Ma Wenhan once served as a special commissioner, but neither the Northeastern Army nor the former Nanjing side could easily give his position to a woman in her early twenties. This is one, and the other is that after Ma Wenhan died, the person who left Many, including key figures like Ma Xiangyu, Ma's adopted son, and Bai Yulan also had a senior brother who also broke up with her. The reason was also because after Ma Wenhan died, Bai continued to stay in the Ma family and ran the business for the Ma family. The family business didn't get in touch again until Bai Yulan remarried. This person may be more like the person we are looking for to Bai Yulan." Jiro Kageyama analyzed and explained.
"Kingshan-kun, let me ask a second question, is Ma Wenhan's death related to the empire?" Akiyama Nosuke asked.
】
"Ma Wenhan was not in good health to begin with. The empire just pushed him from behind to get rid of this annoying trouble." Jiro Kageyama nodded.
"Aren't Bai Yulan and the Ma family suspicious?"
"Bai Yulan is of course suspicious. She has also investigated secretly, but to no avail. As for the Ma family, they are more concerned about the ownership of Ma Wenhan's property after his death. As for how Ma Wenhan died, they have no idea."
"This person from the Ma family is so heartless, they are worse than a little woman." Akiyama Nosuke sighed with emotion.
Kageyama Jiro smiled and said nothing.
"Kageyama-kun, if Bai Yulan is really the person we want to arrest, how should we deal with it?" Akiyama Nosuke asked.
"Zhou Sen is the biggest bargaining chip in our hands, and I don't mind giving him a chance." Jiro Kageyama said.
"Do you want to use Bai Yulan to tie Zhou Sen to the imperial chariot?"
"Yes, Bai Yulan just gave birth to two children for Zhou Sen. He will never give up. As long as we grasp this, we will not worry about him not working hard for the empire." Kageyama Jiro said.
"But what if Bai Yulan is not your target at all?" Akiyama Nosuke asked.
"Isn't that the best result?" Kageyama Jiro said, "We can use and trust Zhou Sen-kun with confidence."
Akiyama Nosuke nodded.
"That person, you never thought of asking him to meet?"
"He is very cautious. He is the one who contacted me, and I don't know how to contact him." Kageyama Jiro said, "Although I really want to know who he is, for now, I can't."
"Didn't you say last time that he was from the military commander, and that this might involve internal fighting? Could it be that there are two different forces within the military commander's organization in Bingcheng?" Akiyama Nosuke asked.
"Actually, according to the comprehensive information obtained, there are two secret underground military organizations in Bingcheng. One is the Ice Blade Special Operations Group. This organization has existed for many years. It is hidden deep and does not reveal its secrets. It generally does not resort to violence. methods to fight against the empire. Even they rarely develop members and are relatively closed. The other is the Military Command Ice City Station. This organization only entered Ice City in the past three years and belongs to outsiders. This organization is relatively radical. They secretly operate in Ice City. To carry out the propaganda and sabotage work of 'Anti-Manchu and Anti-Japanese', the 'Iron Blood Society' is a peripheral organization for the development of this Bingcheng station." Jiro Kageyama explained, "These two organizations run parallel to Bingcheng. They are related, but they are not mutually exclusive. Not affiliated, but there seems to be some kind of contradiction between them. This is an irreconcilable contradiction. As long as this contradiction is provoked, it will be beneficial to us."
"So the person who contacted you wants to provoke conflicts and kill people with a borrowed knife?" Akiyama Nosuke said.
"If it is true that someone borrows a knife to kill someone, then Bai Yulan is likely to be the core of the skate team." Kageyama Jiro said slowly.
"These are all speculations. Bai Yulan's current identity is not easy to change. If we really arrest someone and bring him back for interrogation, we don't have enough evidence. And once we arrest someone, it means that we have helped that person, or that all this is his trick, because The relationship between Bai Yunlan and Zhou Sen. If Bai Yulan is destroyed, Zhou Sen will be taken along with him. Is this much easier than targeting Zhou Sen directly?" Akiyama Nosuke also expressed his concerns.
"That's right, so I won't believe his words easily, but I am also willing to do some cooperation to make him mistakenly think that I believe his words, resulting in a misjudgment, and we can also conduct another test of trust and loyalty on Zhou Senjun ." Kageyama Jiro explained.
"Then what do I do?"
"Reveal some inside information to him appropriately. Except for Bai Yulan's matter, you can tell everything else."
"clear."
