When Xie Xuan went to Jiqing Teahouse for dinner at noon, Wu Guogui was already waiting for him.
Wu Guogui said softly: "Brother, there is something troublesome. Director Li already knows that I kidnapped Zhou Yuan and asked me to let him go."
Xie Xuan said: "He is suspected of collaborating with the enemy. Let's wait until the investigation is clear."
"Zhou Yuan is a councilor of the city government. If the city government is alerted, it will be troublesome."
Xie Xuan asked: "We did not punish Zhou Yuan, and we did not accuse him unjustly. It was just a legitimate investigation. You don't need to worry. In addition, what do you plan to do with the casinos and opium dens owned by Zhou Yuan?"
"Brother, are you interested? Don't you only want factories and pharmacies?"
"I'm not interested, but are Director Li and Director Mo interested? And Dean Zhou, Uchida Hayaki, it's not convenient for them to come forward, so it's okay to take some shares, right?"
"Dean Zhou has no problem, but Commander Uchida, will you want it?"
Xie Xuan reminded: "In addition to liberating us, people coming across the sea to China can't come in vain, right? The situation in Japan is getting worse and worse. They are preparing for war across the country, and everyone is tightening their belts."
Wu Baoguo asked: "Then let me try?"
Xie Xuan reminded: "You can try it, but you have to pay attention to the method."
Wu Baoguo asked: "In what way?"
"Well, my sister-in-law should be very good at this."
"How should Zhou Yuan handle it? Without conclusive evidence, I'm afraid he won't admit it."
Xie Xuan said: "I will send people to the mountain city to find the original bosses of those factories and ask them to recall the situation at that time. Zhou Yuan, as for Zhou Yuan, is temporarily detained for investigation."
He had told Hong Mei to take over all Zhou Yuan's properties while Zhou Yuan and Xia Qin were around.
"Isn't it too much trouble to go all the way to the mountain city just for a chance encounter?"
"There are some things that you can't be afraid of trouble. Taking trouble now is to avoid trouble in the future."
Wu Bagui said gratefully: "Brother, you are really thoughtful."
He was the one who captured Zhou Yuan, and he will also succeed Zhou Yuan as a senator in the future.
Xie Xuan only took over a few factories and handed them over to Hong Mei to run, without much profit.
He is the biggest beneficiary. Xie Xuan gives him advice and takes great risks. He is really grateful.
Xie Xuan said humbly: "No matter how thoughtful you are, if you don't have the cooperation of Brother Guigui, it will be useless."
After Wu Baoguo returned, he told Yu Shuzhen Xie Xuan's suggestion.
Yu Shuzhen said: "If you don't want to give up your children, you can't trap the wolf. Xie Xuan's suggestion is very good. They have obtained Zhou Yuan's property, so they can't pursue this matter anymore, right?"
Wu Guogui said worriedly: "After Zhou Yuan comes out, he will definitely make trouble everywhere. This is trouble."
Yu Shuzhen said disapprovingly: "Do you think Xie Xuan would not think of it?"
Wu Bagui asked puzzledly: "Why didn't he tell me?"
Yu Shuzhen said: "You are such a big guy. Xie Xuan is very calm in his work. He won't tell you clearly, so you can only understand it yourself."
Wu Bagui sighed and said, "It's so tiring to talk to such people."
Yu Shuzhen warned: "As long as you don't plot against him, you won't be tired. Remember, no matter what the situation is in the future, don't go against him. If someone wants to mess with him, you must stand firmly with him."
"But he is from Morton Ding. If I get too close to him, I'm afraid Li Junshi won't like it."
Yu Shuzhen sneered: "He is going to abandon you. Do you care whether he likes it or not?"
Xie Xuan actually had a plan to deal with Zhou Yuan, and Wu Guogui didn't need to do anything about it.
Neither he nor Wu Baogui should take action against Zhou Yuan.
Although Wu Guobao's action would not implicate Xie Xuan, he and Wu Guobao were in a relationship of mutual use, and he also needed Wu Guobao to stay in the Secret Service Department.
At least, Wu Baogui needs to stay in the Secret Service for now.
Xie Xuan received information from Gong Bing that a comrade from the Shenpu Municipal Committee had indeed broken into the Secret Service.
Because he and Xie Xuan were on separate lines, according to the party's confidentiality discipline, he could not have a relationship with that comrade.
Don't say that the comrade may be targeted by the enemy. Even if he is not targeted, the two of them cannot interact.
However, the next day, Xie Xuan received an urgent meeting code from Gong Bing.
Xie Xuan asked: "What happened?"
Gong Bing said in a deep voice: "The comrade from the Secret Service needs your help."
"no problem."
Gong Bing said: "This comrade is lurking in the General Affairs Office of the Secret Service Department. His alias is Tan Qiankun and his code name is 'Sharp Sword'. He reported that Uchida Saki has launched an investigation in the General Affairs Office."
Xie Xuan asked: "What situation does Uchida Saki know?"
He knew that Tan Qiankun was an accountant in the General Affairs Department, and he didn't usually communicate with others. He was the kind of person who only knew how to do his job and turned a deaf ear to other things in the Secret Service.
After Uchida Saki told him that the Secret Service had undercover agents from the military command and the underground party, Xie Xuan went through everyone in the Secret Service in his mind.
Xie Xuan had read all the files of the Secret Service Department before and had doubted many people, but he had no doubts about Tan Qiankun.
Tan Qiankun's file is perfect and he usually behaves very low-key, so how could there be any flaws?
Gong Bing said: "This is exactly what you need to investigate. Find out what Uchida Zaoxi knows. When the time is right, cover Tan Qiankun's withdrawal from the Secret Service."
"good."
Xie Xuan knew that this matter was difficult. Uchida had almost never been out since he arrived at the Secret Service Department. He also looked at the files of the Secret Service Department every day and sometimes talked to some people.
When Uchida Saki started investigating the General Affairs Office, he was not necessarily looking for an undercover agent from the underground party, or was it just a routine investigation, or was he targeting Morton Ding or the military commander?
After returning to Sisi, Xie Xuan and Ma Tian went to interrogate Peng Jinhua.
Today's Peng Jinhua has a round face and no teeth in his mouth, all of which were knocked out by Asano.
Seeing them coming in, his eyes were full of horror.
Xie Xuan walked up to him and asked, "How much do you know about Zhou Yuan's secret contact with Shancheng?"
Peng Jinhua shook his head. How could he know these things about Zhou Yuan?
Xie Xuan said lightly: "I don't know anything, so what's the use of keeping it?"
"Oh oh... oh oh..."
Peng Jinhua's facial muscles could not exert any force at all, and he could not control his tongue. He could only scream like a mute.
Xie Xuan asked: "Do you know or don't you know?"
Peng Jinhua dared to shake his head. Regardless of whether he knew it or not, he could only know it now.
Xie Xuan said slowly: "The flour mill and textile factory in Zhouyuan were deliberately left to him by Shancheng. Those two pharmacies provided a lot of medicines to the Loyalty and Salvation Army."
Peng Jinhua nodded repeatedly. Xie Xuan said whatever he said was whatever he wanted. All he had to do was nod his head.
Xie Xuan suddenly asked: "Want to go out?"
Peng Jinhua's eyes were full of surprise and he nodded repeatedly.
Xie Xuan asked again: "After you get out, do you know what to do?"
"After he gets out, he still has to be killed by Zhou Yuan?"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe Zhou Yuan was killed by him?"
When Peng Jinhua heard this, he looked at Xie Xuan in surprise. He somewhat understood Xie Xuan's intention.
