Chapter 238 Treating guests and giving gifts
"Yu Wenyi is dead?"
In Wuhan, Xu Qingyun received the telegram from Xu Zhanjie. After executing Yu Wenyi and others, Xu Zhanjie immediately sent a report to Wuhan and told Xu Qingyun about it.
"Stationmaster, it would be better if he died."
Yan Ming said with a smile that the telegram was sent by him. Yan Ming was Xu Qingyun's number one confidant, the leader of the intelligence team, and the veritable second person at Wuhan Station.
"How is Zhao San's performance?" Xu Qingyun suddenly asked.
"It's okay. This kid is a good at ransacking homes. You can't hide anything from him. But he's too timid and very tactful. It's hard to really trust him."
Yan Ming replied that Zhao San was very smart. There were many people leaving the action team, but he was the only one who could be transferred to the intelligence team.
The webmaster asked him specifically, which shows that Zhao San already has a place in the webmaster's heart.
"It's okay if you're timid. Just exercise. He's a good piece of jade. Give him a good workout."
Xu Qingyun didn't care about this. No one is perfect, it depends on how to use it.
Those who are perfect in all aspects are saints. Such people do not exist, and no one, including him, can be.
"yes."
Yan Ming responded and left quickly. He was here to report the situation. He had many things to do with the intelligence team.
The Wuhan Station blockade was all lifted, and the outside world finally knew what happened here. No one expected that the Wuhan Station of the Military Intelligence Department suddenly changed people.
Soon, news of Yu Wenyi's sudden death came from Nanjing.
How he died can be seen by an intelligent person at a glance.
Yu Wenyi's relationship with others in Wuhan was average, and no one sympathized with his death. However, the Military Intelligence Office has changed its director, and all aspects need to be reorganized.
Especially the military and police, they all want to give a generous gift.
"Xu Qingyun caught many spies?"
At the Police Headquarters, Chief Qin Junlin took the microphone and asked in surprise. In fact, he knew about the incident at Wuhan Station earlier than others. A branch chief on his side was arrested. He must go and find out what happened. That was his person.
After learning that the chief officer of Wuhan Station had been changed, he immediately asked someone to inquire about the situation in Nanjing. Nanjing called him back today.
"Yes, this person is not simple. You have to be careful not to let anything happen to him."
There is a lot of noise on the phone. Long-distance calls have been opened in many places recently. Wuhan is a big city, and we can already communicate with Nanjing in different places, but the sound is not very good.
"Understood, does he have any preferences?" Qin Junlin immediately responded.
"I don't know what he likes at the moment. He used to be a policeman in Tianjin. He caught Japanese spies and was valued by the Military Intelligence Department. Xu Zhanjie, the head of the Intelligence Section of the Military Intelligence Department, accepted him as a student. Within half a year after being transferred to Nanjing, he was promoted to deputy section of the Intelligence Section. "He is a real achievement."
What the person on the other end of the phone investigated was not detailed, but mainly things that could be known on the surface.
But it's enough for Qin Junlin. Xu Qingyun is a ruthless person and he must pay attention to it.
"Thank you very much. I'll invite you to come to Wuhan when you have time in the future."
Qin Junlin soon hung up the phone. The incident at Wuhan Station had just been revealed today. Others had just learned that Xu Qingyun had taken over as the deputy station director, so they did not know the situation for the time being.
He can be one step ahead of others.
After thinking for a while, he picked up the phone again and called the Military Intelligence Office.
"I'm Xu Qingyun, who are you?"
The phone on Xu Qingyun's desk rang, it was an outside call.
"Hello, Stationmaster Xu, I, Qin Junlin, would like to ask if you are free tonight?"
"Director Qin?" Xu Qingyun knew his identity when he heard the name.
It is impossible for him to come to Wuhan without doing any homework. Most of the officials in Wuhan, big and small, know everything about it.
The police station is an important department. Not to mention the director of the general bureau, he also knows who the director of the branch is.
"Yes, it's me. I didn't expect you to know about me."
Qin Junlin has a very good attitude. The Military Intelligence Office has supervisory power over them. If he commits any crime, they can really arrest him.
"Not today. Secretary-General Wang has already made an appointment with me. It will be the day after tomorrow."
Xu Qingyun really didn't have time at night, and there were many people who were well-informed. Secretary-General Wang was from the government and had a very high level. I asked him to have dinner and meet him to get to know each other.
The Military Intelligence Department has no control over them, but it is an intelligence department after all, and no one will be offended easily.
"Understood, I will pick you up the day after tomorrow."
Qin Junlin hung up the phone. He didn't expect others to be so quick, but Secretary-General Wang was of a higher rank than him, so it was okay for him to wait.
Xu Qingyun's phone has not been disconnected for a day.
They were all big shots in Wuhan, some in person and some as secretaries. They all had the same request, and they wanted to get to know Xu Qingyun.
After all, he is a high-ranking official. Xu Qingyun is inconspicuous at the Nanjing headquarters, but it is different in Wuhan. He is the one who calls the shots in the Military Intelligence Department.
"Webmaster, we have started investigating. This is the verified list."
In the afternoon, Yan Ming came to the office. He was investigating the property status of everyone in the intelligence team. If there was a large amount of unexplained money, he would immediately focus on the investigation.
The first person he checked was Zhao San.
This guy is good at making money, but he doesn't have any excessive problems. Thinking of his character, Yan Ming thinks it's normal.
Zhao San is very smart, and his biggest characteristic is that he knows the current affairs. He will not do anything too much.
After checking him, Yan Ming immediately asked Zhao San to check other people. He is an old man at Wuhan Station and knows the people here better, so he can check faster.
"Keep the ones that can be used, and send the ones that can't be used back to the headquarters for rearrangement."
Xu Qingyun glanced at the list and saw that more than a dozen people had passed the review. These people could work for them in the future. At least for the time being, they were trustworthy people.
"clear."
Yan Ming left with a smile, and soon some people at the station were notified and asked to go to the Nanjing headquarters to deliver things.
Zhao San knows best that after they leave, it will be difficult to return to Wuhan.
On the third day, Qin Junlin came to the Military Intelligence Office to pick up people.
At this time, Xu Qingyun was still busy in the office. There was an investigation report in front of him, focusing on the investigation of Ni Shoulin.
Ni Shoulin came from a good family. He graduated from Huangpu and had a bright future. Who would have thought that he would work for the Japanese.
There are not many people who interact with Ni Shoulin on weekdays. After all, he is a soldier and spends a lot of time in the army. Xu Qingyun has not investigated the people who have interacted with him in the army for the time being, mainly outside.
The Japanese are instigating rebellion against him and must contact him.
Moreover, he only instigated rebellion recently, which means that the time of contact was also during this period. Everyone who has been in contact with him recently is suspected.
The reason why we did not investigate people in the army was because if a spy really broke into the army, he would not be allowed to personally instigate rebellion. Such a spy would be much more important than Ni Shoulin.
In the past three months, more than 40 people have come into contact with Ni Shoulin.
This number is actually not much. Xu Qingyun wants them to investigate in great detail. Even if Ni Shoulin goes to a restaurant to have a meal and talks to the shopkeeper, everyone he has come into contact with must be counted.
There were only nineteen people who had actual contact with Ni Shoulin many times.
Check these nineteen first, and if they are okay, then check all the people you came into contact with.
The investigation was very simple. Xu Qingyun did not check what they had done, but just checked their identities.
As Japanese spies pretend to be Chinese, their identities must be false. As long as the person with the false identity is found, it is basically certain that he is the spy who instigated Ni Shoulin's rebellion.
In Nanjing, Xiao Wu came back from outside with excitement on his face. "Secretary Huang, we have contacted our hometown. This is the latest message sent to us by our hometown."
"Contacted?"
Secretary Huang stood up directly, even more excited than Xiao Wu.
They have lost contact with the organization for too long, and they rely on the Kuomintang newspapers to get all information about the organization.
It's a pity that the Fruit Party never speaks well of them. How many of their people are eliminated here and what battles are won there every day.
Secretary Huang didn't believe it at all.
According to the numbers written in their news, everyone in the organization has died several times.
There was not much content in the message. It told them that some members of the organization had settled in northern Shaanxi and were safe for the time being.
After being pursued and intercepted by the Fruit Party for a year, the organization finally got out of the encirclement and found a place to stay.
Then he told them that they must be careful when working behind enemy lines. They did not need intelligence, but they must ensure their own safety.
"The organization went to northern Shaanxi, which is great."
Secretary Huang was very excited. For such a long time, his biggest wish was to get information about the organization, and today he finally got his wish.
"Secretary Huang, we can report our situation now."
Xiao Wu nodded happily. They had so much work recently and needed to report it to the organization in time. At the same time, he asked the organization if there was anything they needed, and they would find a way to provide it.
"Okay, I'll write a reply right away."
Secretary Huang nodded. It was extremely important for him to get news from the organization and regain contact.
Over the past year, many things have happened in Nanjing, and these things need to be reported to the organization.
For a whole year, the organization was forced to travel to many places. Secretary Huang calculated that the distance had already exceeded 10,000 miles, or even 20,000 miles.
He didn't know the exact number, but he understood that the large forces had endured tremendous hardships, and now they were finally able to hold on until the moon cleared.
Secretary Huang wrote a long article, including the sacrifice of Comrade Lu Hanping, the rescue of people by kites, etc., all of them were written down.
At the same time, I briefly talked about the current situation in Nanjing.
In particular, it was mentioned that the Military Intelligence Department had a spy genius and had arrested many spies. Fortunately, this person was not in the Party Affairs Investigation Department, otherwise they might all be in danger.
"Stationmaster Xu, a little thought is not enough to show respect."
At the dinner table, Qin Junlin, who was full of wine and food, took out a box and placed it in front of Xu Qingyun with a smile.
"Director Qin is too polite."
Xu Qingyun understood what he was sending and didn't touch the box, but he didn't refuse either.
It must be filled with gold bars. He has collected a lot of them in the past few days, mostly from people in the military, this time from the police.
This amount of money is nothing to him, but if he doesn't accept it, the other party will not feel at ease, and may even think that he is specifically targeting him.
"That's right. If you have any errands to do in the future, please give me your instructions."
Qin Junlin stood up, the wine party was over, the gifts were given out, and his mission was completed.
Although it is a bit heartbreaking, the money must be given away.
He didn't ask Xu Qingyun to do anything, but just don't stare at him or check him out.
As the director of the General Bureau, he made a lot of money. Once he was investigated, he would be finished immediately.
Of course, for a person of his level, as long as he doesn't make any principled mistakes, Xu Qingyun can't do anything at his word. He just needs to maintain a good relationship with Xu Qingyun.
"Thank you, Director Qin, for your support."
Xu Qingyun also stood up. After the meal, Yan Ming, who came with Xu Qingyun, picked up the box and followed them out.
The box is not light to hold, and there are quite a few gold bars inside.
"Fifty dollars, Qin Junlin is generous enough."
After getting in the car, Xu Qingyun opened the box. Yan Ming looked at it and said with a smile.
"He is the director of the General Administration and can usually make a lot of money."
Xu Qingyun is not surprised by this number. Wuhan is an important town with prosperous commerce and developed economy.
If you work as an official here, you can naturally earn more.
His predecessor Yu Wenyi made a lot of money, Secretary Qi copied a lot, and even Shi Shangyan and the others had a fortune of several hundred gold bars.
"Team leader, we found it."
At noon the next day, Zhao San came to Yan Ming's office and said excitedly.
"Who is it?"
Yan Ming immediately raised his head. They were screening the nineteen people and only checked their identities. They could complete the investigation in two days.
"Yu Heming, he is from the Northeast. I found some of his fellow villagers in the Northeast. There is this village in the Northeast, but there is no one named Yu at all. And according to them, this village was hit by a disaster before and few people were alive. "
Zhao San quickly said that people from the Northeast are the focus of attention. Yan Ming specifically asked Zhao San to check this person, and today he finally got something.
"Keep an eye on the person immediately and I'll report to the stationmaster."
Yan Ming stood up. It was a good thing to find the Japanese spy suspect. This person had not left Nanjing. He was a businessman to the outside world and had obviously met Ni Shoulin three times.
Not many times, but secretly I don’t know how many times.
"yes."
Zhao San took the order and left. He was not afraid of the spy. Even though he was from the action team, his ability to monitor people was no worse than that of the intelligence team.
In the past few days, many people have been sent to Nanjing.
Especially the action team, which has the most people sent there. They must go when they receive orders. If you dare to leave without permission, you are a deserter. Not only will you be unlucky, but your family will also suffer.
They are an intelligence agency. Leaving without permission can be regarded as a traitor and will be executed if discovered.
If you go to the headquarters, even if you are assigned, you can at least save your life.
From the list reported by Dai Jieying, only Zhao San was not sent away, and the rest all left.
The action team office suddenly became empty.
Fortunately, the ten people who escorted Secretary Qi back have returned. There are now more than sixty people in the action team, almost half of the previous combat strength.
For general action, these people are adequate.
Xu Qingyun will slowly replenish the missing people. The action team is not an intelligence team. Just go to the army and find some elite soldiers, and it will be easy to replenish them.
"Stationmaster, we found the suspect. His identity is false."
Arriving at the office, Yan Ming immediately spoke and reported Yu Heming's situation in detail.
Yu Heming has not been in Wuhan for a long time, only two years. He is engaged in the grain business. Being able to do this kind of business proves that he has some skills.
He has a wife and children, looks normal, and has a good relationship with his neighbors. If anyone really wants to get out of trouble and asks him to borrow food, he will lend it to them.
Moreover, the interest he asks for is not much, and he never urges people to pay back the food. Unless he deliberately refuses to pay back the food, he will come to ask for it.
Four thousand words. I am not in a good state today. I will make up for it tomorrow.
