Chapter 112 Investigating Old Cases
In the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course, the telecommunications team leader came to the section chief’s office with the message he had just received.
"You go back first."
After reading the contents of the telegram, Section Chief Kawashima Kosuke waved his hand gently, and the telecommunications team leader bowed and left.
"Aoki, come here."
Picking up the phone, Kawashima Kosuke called his confidant, intelligence team leader Aoki Mori. He hung up the phone and couldn't help but let out a cold snort.
Damn Nannan, for actually playing dirty tricks on him.
"Professor, I'm here."
Aokimori came very quickly. Aokimori is twenty-eight years old. He graduated from the Japanese Army Officer School. His school results are very good and he is among the elite among the elite.
Five years ago, he was spotted by Kosuke Kawashima and became his confidant. Now he has the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
"Look at this."
Kawashima handed the telegram on the desk to Aoki, and he took down a samurai sword behind him, took it out, and wiped it gently.
"The South has no good intentions."
As soon as he finished reading, Aoki raised his head. Kawashima didn't speak. Aoki pondered for a moment and continued: "Nanbu has always disobeyed your orders because of his relationship with the headquarters. He did not report to you for such a big thing as infiltrating a traitor in the Nanjing Military Intelligence Office." You report it, and we won’t find out until later that something happened to us.”
"He refused to hand over his people to us again. This time he lost his people, but he wanted us to help him avenge him."
"Any more?"
Kawashima continued to wipe the katana, as if caring for his most beloved treasure.
"If we go for the assassination and it succeeds, Nanfang can say that he provided intelligence. If it fails, the responsibility lies with us. If there are losses, you will definitely be scolded by the chief section chief. No matter how you calculate it, it is a losing business."
Aokimori said slowly, Kawashima finally raised his head, smiled and nodded: "You are right, what should we do?"
"Section Chief, return the assassination mission and let them carry it out in the south."
"That's not the best way."
Kawashima shook his head slightly. He could see through the trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife at a glance.
This old guy, relying on his seniority and connections at the headquarters, has always been perfunctory with his orders, which has long made him angry.
"Chief, what do you have in mind?" Aoki Sen lowered his head and asked in a low voice.
"Only investigate, not kill."
Kawashima said softly, Aoki was stunned for a moment, and then gave a thumbs up: "Section Chief Gao Ming, Nanjing is our responsibility after all. The other party has captured our people. If we don't do something, it will be easy for that old guy from the south to be in the main section." Complain before the chief.”
"We will find out what they can't find out clearly, and then the pressure will be on them."
"High, really high."
Aoki kept flattering, and Kawashima smiled even more. The message from Nanbu did not mention the arrest process at all, but it promoted the arrester Xu Qingyun as an espionage genius, saying that if he was not eliminated, there would be endless troubles.
Xu Qingyun knows that he has asked about Tianjin in detail, and he does have some knowledge.
However, neither Tianjin nor they know the specific process of handling the case.
"Wake up the mountain ghost and let him find out about this matter."
Kawashima said again, Aoki was startled for a moment, then lowered his head: "Hai, I'll wake him up right away."
The mountain ghost is an agent arranged by Aoki himself and hidden in the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Department. He has been in a dormant state.
He had previously thought about using mountain ghosts to let them master all kinds of information from the Military Intelligence Department, but the section chief refused.
The reason is that the Military Intelligence Department poses little threat to them. Before it is activated, don't put the mountain ghosts in danger because of trivial matters.
Today we finally have to activate this important chess piece.
It is equivalent to placing a pair of eyes in the military intelligence department.
Aoki has absolute confidence in Shangui, and Shangui will definitely be able to find out all the situations.
"Go ahead."
Kawashima nodded slightly, and Aoki left respectfully.
The Japanese have been coveting China for a long time. For hundreds of years, they have always wanted to swallow the biggest piece of fat around them.
They coveted Shanghai even more. Three years ago, the Japanese secretly planned and framed it, planned and implemented by Kawashima Hikiki. Using the murder of a Japanese monk as an excuse, they shamelessly launched an attack and wanted to occupy Shanghai.
Fortunately, the defenders resisted strongly and eventually the Japanese had to give up.
But their desire to fully occupy Shanghai has never stopped.
Whether it is Shanghai or Nanjing, Kawashima attaches great importance to it and has collected a large amount of important intelligence, but he will not send people to Nanjing to assassinate Chinese agents in Nanjing, or Chinese agents who have just made meritorious services.
At this time, Nanjing must have strong protection for this new agent.
Kawashima is very careful and never does anything he is not sure about.
His guess was indeed correct. Xu Qingyun caught Japanese spies continuously. Xu Zhanjie attached great importance to his safety. Xu Qingyun rarely left the headquarters and went out alone.
During this period, Xu Qingyun followed Xu Zhanjie almost all the time, and he did learn a lot.
Xu Zhanjie is experienced and has no reservations when teaching Xu Qingyun.
Xu Qingyun already fully understood the current situation in Nanjing, the Guo Party situation, and the internal situation of the Military Intelligence Department, far more detailed than what he would have learned through hearsay in later generations.
The Guo Party has many factions and the relationships are complicated.
It is impossible to learn these things elsewhere. Having a better teacher really makes a difference.
Xijiao Branch, Xu Qingshi is in the office.
He was the deputy director who landed by air, and he had just arrived in Nanjing. Apart from the eight people he brought with him, he had no foundation here.
After the last case was completed, the police department gave them a verbal praise.
It's just praise, no real reward.
We can also see the police department’s attitude towards them.
Xu Qingshi didn't care. He arranged eight of his subordinates together and appointed a police sergeant to form a small team.
The director reluctantly gave them a small piece of territory.
They are all outside the city, and are inhabited by poor people. Even if they are squeezed clean, they cannot squeeze out even three ounces of oil.
Xu Qingshi is not someone who exploits the people. It doesn't matter whether he has a territory or not. As long as he has a firm foothold first, he can develop slowly in the future.
He knew very well that everywhere there would be exclusion.
As long as the director and others don't dare to make small moves against him, it will be fine. Now that he has the support of the Military Intelligence Office, others really don't dare to do anything to them.
"Deputy Director Xu, this is a special order from the Director."
Xu Qingshi was in the office when someone suddenly knocked on the door and put a box on the table after coming in.
"What's this?"
Xu Qingshi recognized him, but the people in the logistics department didn't understand why he suddenly gave him something.
"You'll know after you take a look. I'll take my leave first."
The visitor smiled and lowered his head, then left the office and took the initiative to close the door when leaving.
He has a good attitude, but it can be seen from the title that they don't have much respect for Xu Qingshi, otherwise the subtitle would not be used.
It's also possible that he is the director's man, and he was called that way to avoid making the director think too much. Xu Qingshi opened the box and his eyes suddenly narrowed.
There was an ocean inside. After counting, it was a full one hundred and twenty yuan, which was much higher than his salary.
Why did the director ask someone to give him money?
Although the Western Suburbs Bureau does not have much oil and water, it controls several important channels.
They are not in charge of the city gate, but they have checkpoints outside the city. This checkpoint is the most lucrative and has always been under the personal control of the director. The person in charge of the checkpoint is his confidant.
Xu Qingshi put the box away first, called his men, and asked them to inquire about the situation.
"Director, you are not the only one, everyone above the section chief has it. The section chief and others have less, only 80 yuan. You are the deputy director, so it is a bit more."
The subordinates were very quick to find out. This was an undisclosed secret in the bureau and everyone knew it.
"Okay, let's go do things first."
Everyone has it, so it’s not directed at him, but we can see the problem from this money split.
The more than a dozen section chiefs in the Western Suburbs Bureau each earn 80 yuan a month, which is almost a thousand yuan a year. The total money distributed is more than 10,000 yuan.
How much do they have to collect every year to give out so much?
All this money is from the people. The police department never dares to offend people who are truly capable. Let alone collect money, it will be fine if they don't give money away.
The people they collect money from are basically powerless people.
What is the difference between today's Guodang and those corrupt officials in previous dynasties?
It's a pity that he can't change all this. Even if he becomes the director, this phenomenon still exists. If you hinder the interests of most people anywhere, they will bite you madly until you are broken into pieces.
"Team leader, I'm back."
Xu Qingyun was in the office when Yan Ming opened the door and came in.
"This is what you asked for."
Yan Ming held a pile of information in his hand. Something happened at the Guangzhou station. Xu Zhanjie was sent to deal with it by the director. There was no class for the past few days.
Xu Qingyun didn't want to waste time, so he simply asked Yan Ming to get the information on the two people who escaped before.
Because of Lu Dawang, the two clues Xu Zhanjie finally obtained were all in vain. Unless Lu Dawang died, Xu Zhanjie would not be able to spare him, and his death would probably be even more painful.
"Leave it here."
Xu Qingyun nodded. This information was originally classified. After the person escaped, its importance was greatly reduced. Xu Qingyun could borrow it to read in the office.
"Team leader, everyone has run away, can they still be found?"
Yan Ming put down the information and asked in a low voice. If others said they could find it, he would definitely sneer at it, but if Xu Qingyun said so, he would believe it.
Ever since Xu Qingyun went to Tianjin Station, everything he did was very meaningful, and he always thought of places they could not imagine, which made Yan Ming extremely admired.
"It's difficult, they are probably no longer in Nanjing."
Xu Qingyun shook his head. The exposed lurkers usually withdraw, or change their identities and continue to lurk elsewhere.
And it must be far away from Nanjing to avoid being discovered.
"Then you still read this information?"
Yan Ming was stunned. He couldn't find anyone. Wouldn't it be a waste of time to look at the information?
"As long as a person does something, there will always be traces left behind. Anyway, there has been nothing much recently. Let's see if we can find someone related to them."
Xu Qingyun smiled and said, he is a footprint expert and is very sensitive to various traces.
The same is true in life. Things you have done will leave a mark. Through these traces, it is best to check their past trajectories. If you can find out, it is best. If you cannot find out, it is an exercise.
"I understand, I'll watch it with you."
Yan Ming understood the meaning of Xu Qingyun's words. The person who escaped had lived in Nanjing and must have been in contact with many people, including their upline or downline.
Or other traitors.
Investigate their past and find suspicious people from the traces, maybe you will gain something.
Xu Qingyun did not refuse, and soon Fang Laibao ran over. He saw that Yan Ming had not come back after receiving the task of team leader, so he came here to take a look.
The number of people reading the information became three.
The spy who was targeted by Xu Zhanjie pretended to be Kong Yufa, and his occupation was a mathematics teacher at No. 3 Middle School.
According to the information, his native place is Shandong. According to the investigation, he does indeed speak like someone from Shandong.
Japan occupies the Northeast, and there are many people from Shandong there, so it is normal to learn the Shandong accent.
Kong Yufa usually had a good reputation. Neither his colleagues nor neighbors knew that he was a spy. After he escaped, the Military Intelligence Office conducted an investigation on the people around them, but did not reveal his true identity.
During the investigation, many people said good things about him.
Kong Yufa arrived in Nanjing three years ago and has won the title of outstanding teacher for two consecutive years. The students he teaches respect him very much.
Not to mention having peaches and plums all over the world, at least he can influence many people.
Xu Qingyun has never ignored students, and student education is more important. In later generations, some students have their heads twisted. I don’t know what they think. They believe that the moon in foreign countries is round, and even excuse the crimes committed by the Japanese. They do not believe in the crimes committed by the Japanese. A heinous crime.
There will be such people in later generations, and there are also such people now.
In the past three years, Kong Yufa has led many classes. Xu Qingyun has no extra time now, so he can pay attention to their thoughts in the future.
If there is anything wrong, take action as soon as possible.
When the Japanese came, these people were representatives of hard-core traitors. They helped the new masters to harm their compatriots, and their methods were even more cruel than the Japanese.
Kong Yufa has no relatives in Nanjing, so his social life is simple.
Apart from school and home, he only goes to bookstores to buy books and not anywhere else.
In the eyes of his colleagues, he is a good teacher who is diligent and studious.
After he left, the principal asked him why he suddenly disappeared and whether he was being persecuted by someone.
Pingchuan has confessed that he does not know Kong Yufa's true identity, but he is certain that he is Japanese, belongs to the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course, and is lurking in Nanjing.
Kong Yufa left in a hurry and escaped from the surveillance.
Before escaping, he must have found himself exposed.
The intelligence department personnel who were monitoring him did not let him find out. Someone notified him, but the method of notification was not found out by the intelligence department.
It was definitely not a phone call. He didn't have a phone at home, and he didn't receive any calls before running away.
Xu Qingyun read his information carefully and closed his eyes in deep thought.
His social relations are simple, and the possibility of problems among his school colleagues and neighbors is very small. The number of spies is not too many, and there will not be so many people in one place.
But nothing is absolute, and what should be investigated should still be investigated.
Kong Yufa is lurking in the school and will definitely find ways to collect intelligence or instigate useful Chinese people to rebel.
These are the two main categories of espionage intelligence work.
As for assassination and sabotage, that is the business of the action team, and lurkers generally do not do this.
It is not yet the period of all-out war of resistance. In an emergency, almost one person is used for multiple purposes, and there is no such detail. When it is time to act, intelligence personnel must also go out and collect important information. Operation personnel must also do it if they have the conditions.
The first guaranteed update. Thanks to my old friend Yi Xin Qiuyue for another 4,000 starting points reward.
