Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

A small teahouse that can be found everywhere. A plainclothes Central Bureau of Investigation agent stepped into it, ordered a pot of tea as usual, and drank the tea to kill time.

Although he was inconspicuous in the teahouse, he quietly pricked up his ears and keenly acquired all useful information.

In the eyes of his colleagues who knew him well, this scene did not seem unusual at all, because they had such tasks every now and then, lingering in the streets and obtaining all kinds of information.

But a waiter was secretly watching the actions of the Central Bureau of Investigation agent. When he saw that the Central Bureau of Investigation agent arranged the tea bowls into a specific shape, he became interested.

After filling half a stomach with tea, the agent left the money and left leisurely. The servant who had been watching him secretly immediately stepped forward to collect the money and walked swiftly towards the shopkeeper. As he walked, his hand moved, and the small note sandwiched in the French currency fell into his other hand.

After a busy period, another guest who had been waiting for the servant finally arrived. When the servant went forward to pour tea, the note had already been quietly passed to this person's hands.

Not long after, the guest left the teahouse and returned to his room, where he quickly took out the note. After baking it on paper, the contents on it became visible. When he saw the contents clearly, he felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him in the coldest days of winter.

"Zhang Shihao..."

He kept repeating this name that had caused countless people in Japan's special intelligence system to fail and made countless people tremble when they heard of it, and the shock on his face could not fade away for a long time.

"How can he be responsible for this?"

This person had the urge to run away, but after taking a deep breath, he decided to go to his superior immediately to report the situation.

……

This is an alley with a strong Chongqing style. There is a courtyard with many houses in the alley. The spy who had the urge to run away before now put on a smiling expression and came to the courtyard to start the second round of rent collection this month.

A man who was bent over by life asked cautiously: "Boss, can you wait a few more days?"

"Is the baby's condition better? If money is tight, I'll give it to you next month."

The man was overjoyed when he heard this, and kept expressing his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

The son he had been waiting for many years was injured in the Japanese bombing and is still lying in the hospital. He worked hard to make money, but the medical expenses still made him breathless. No matter how proud a man is, he has to bow his head and smile again and again because of the embarrassing cyst.

The spy sighed in sympathy, patted the man's lowered shoulder, and asked, "Is Officer Wu back?"

"Master Wu just came back."

"Then you go ahead and do your work. I'll go collect the rent from Officer Wu. Officer Wu is such a jerk. He gets paid by the Nationalist government, but I have to keep asking him to pay the rent."

The man stammered in defense of Officer Wu: "Mr. Wu, he didn't delay your rent on purpose."

"I know, I know, Officer Wu is a good man!"

The spy sighed and walked towards the house where Officer Wu lived. After entering, he shouted, "Officer Wu, are you there? I am Lao Chen..."

But after entering the room and confirming that Officer Wu was the only one in the room, all the compassion on his face disappeared, and he said in Japanese:
"Takasu-kun..."

Officer Wu's name is Wu Wei. He is well-known in this courtyard for his righteousness. If someone is short of money, he can always borrow money from him. However, because of this, he often falls short of paying the rent. He should have smiled at the landlord, but when the landlord spoke in Japanese, his face changed immediately and he lowered his voice and said:
"Chen Beishan!"

The spy was startled and immediately said in Shandong-accented Chinese: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Wu Wei looked outside vigilantly and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

The spy said solemnly, "The 'thief' has sent intel."

"what's up?"

"Zhang Shihao, Zhang Shihao has come to Chongqing and is responsible for controlling the Chongqing Party Headquarters of the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Chongqing Station of the Military Bureau of Investigation. The 'thief' said that under Zhang Shihao's order, the Chongqing Party Headquarters will immediately conduct a large-scale investigation of the meteorological agencies. In addition, the Central Bureau of Investigation has set up secret sentries in various important places, hoping to use the bombing opportunity to find the traces of our 'guide'."

After explaining the intelligence, the spy, who went by the alias Chen Beishan, said solemnly, "Officer Wu, Zhang Shihao is here. Should we...should we go into silence first?"

In the Japanese intelligence system, the name Zhang Shihao gave countless Japanese agents a headache when they heard it. But if they became his opponent, it would not be a headache, but a stomachache - as if it was foreshadowing the need to commit seppuku.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Compared to his subordinates who were worried and fearful, the Japanese spy chief, who went by the alias Wu Wei, was extremely excited at this moment.

Ever since he learned about Zhang Shihao, Wu Wei has been studying him. He even dreams of going to Shanghai and becoming famous in the Japanese intelligence community by stepping on Zhang Shihao's corpse.

But who could have thought that Tsukamoto Seiji would appear halfway through the journey. This man actually took the lead and became famous by stepping on Zhang Shihao's corpse, making Wu Wei secretly hate him for a long time.

But last year, there was a sudden turn of events and Zhang Shihao's fake death was exposed. Wu Wei was so excited that he couldn't sleep for several nights. He tried every means to go to Shanghai to take up the post, but he never expected that things would go against his wishes and he ended up in Chongqing.

As the saying goes, when you are surrounded by mountains and rivers and think there is no way out, you will find another village when you turn around!
He thought he had no chance to compete with Zhang Shihao, but he didn't expect Zhang Shihao to come to Chongqing. Not only did he come to Chongqing, but he also became his direct opponent.

This made Wu Wei feel his blood boiling - for a spy who considered himself an ace, fighting against and defeating the most famous colleague was a supreme honor that was the real summer (ahem) medicine.

"Kitasama-kun," Wu Wei, who had just warned Chen Beishan for calling him "Takasu-kun," now called out Chen Beishan's Japanese surname. After Chen Beishan made a gesture of listening, he said:

"We can now activate the 'Abandonment Plan'—"

"Let our opponent feel the pleasure of chopping melons and vegetables, and then... make him fall from heaven to hell!"

Perhaps it was because Wu Wei's confident look gave Chen Beishan confidence, or it was because after following Wu Wei, he experienced the pleasure of making a fool of his opponent, or it could be that the launch of the "abandonment plan" in which he personally participated made him feel safe. In short, the shadow that shrouded Chen Beishan disappeared so easily.

"Mr. Takasu, under your leadership, the Thief Intelligence Team will definitely bring Zhang Shihao down!"

After sending Chen Beishan away, Gao Xu Hongji, who used the pseudonym Wu Wei, closed his eyes and began to think.

He noticed Zhang Shihao as soon as he showed up. As his reputation grew, his research on Zhang Shihao became more and more in-depth.

He studied every successful case of Zhang Shihao again and again, madly absorbing experience - when he set foot in Chongqing and formed the "Big Thief" intelligence team, these experiences made him feel at home in Chongqing.

The famous Military Control Commission and the old but immortal Central Control Commission were like newborn babies under his manipulation.

But the more this happened, the more he admired Zhang Shihao.

He had learned the essence of showing weakness to the enemy from Zhang Shihao's successful actions. Zhang Shihao's fake death taught him the strategy of "praising the enemy", so he combined the methods of showing weakness to the enemy and "praising the enemy" to make the [sacrificial pawn plan].

However, the Military Intelligence Bureau and the Central Bureau of Investigation were unable to force him to implement his "abandonment plan."

And now, the opponent he valued and admired the most appeared. Out of the greatest respect for his opponent, Takasu Hiroki immediately threw out the [Abandonment Plan].

After reviewing the entire [Abandonment Plan] in his mind once again, Takasu Hiroki opened his eyes and smiled.

He whispered to himself:
"Zhang Shihao, it must be very normal for you to crush an unknown person to death with overwhelming advantage?" His eyes were shining, as if he saw his opponent taking the victory for granted.

"My most admired opponent, you will eventually become my stepping stone."

……

Under the command of Zhang Anping, the Chongqing Party Headquarters of the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Chongqing Station of the Military Bureau of Investigation worked at their maximum capacity and went all out in the direction pointed out by Zhang Anping.

Let us focus our attention on the Military Control Commission’s Chongqing Station.

"Director, this is the list of suspects we have drawn up." A subordinate handed a list to the intelligence director Zheng Yi:

"According to the search range you gave, the people at the front of the list are more suspicious."

Zheng Yi took the list and looked at it carefully.

There was a brief introduction behind each name. Zheng Yi looked through it but couldn't figure out anything, so he said:
"Immediately send someone to secretly check their financial situation. If you find any suspicious persons, report to me immediately."

Professional spies are difficult to be discovered due to economic reasons, but this is not the case with these spies who have been recruited to defect. Eleven out of ten of them become spies because of beauty and money. It is obvious that such people will have consumption that is higher than their own income.

"Also, monitor this suspicious object ranked in the top ten first."

"Yes!"

Zheng Yi strongly agreed with the investigation direction given by Zhang Anping, but she did not think that it would be easy to catch the internal mole. Counterintelligence work has always required tedious undercover visits, investigations, and fishing, and all methods must be used to find the person.

So after handing the investigation over to her subordinates, she focused on placing spies among the refugees - she was holding back her anger and wanted to prove to Zhang Shihao that she, Zheng Yi, was a leader in the intelligence community.

But something unexpected happened to her. She thought it would take many secret visits and investigations to find the mole on the suspicious list, but after only three days, her subordinates reported:
Major Zhang Yixing, a staff officer of the Air Defense Command, is a major suspect.

Zheng Yi was surprised. She estimated that it might take ten days or half a month to find a clue, and she was even prepared to take advantage of the next air raid. Unexpectedly, her men found an important clue in just three days.

It was so fast that she couldn't believe it.

She immediately verified her subordinates' findings, and this verification made her sure that her subordinates had not made a false report. This major in the air defense command, Zhang Yixing, was most likely a mole.

Zheng Yi immediately mobilized personnel to carry out strict control, and secretly asked the air defense command to make secret adjustments to the garrisons of the two air defense forces.

After several days of phased surveillance, it was finally discovered that Zhang Yixing was going to make a connection.

Zheng Yi did not act rashly to launch an arrest, but instead sent people to secretly track the contact target. After several attempts, he finally determined the other party's residence and identity.

After her harvest, she immediately reported her results to Zhang Anping, fearing that the Central Bureau of Investigation would get there first.

Counterintelligence Command.

While listening to Zheng Yi's report, Zhang Anping was thinking about Zhou Yue's report yesterday.

Zheng Yi thought she was fast enough, but she didn't expect that the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics was making even faster progress. As early as yesterday, they reported the interim results to Zhang Anping:

After conducting a large-scale investigation in the meteorological agency, they found that the assistant of a meteorological expert was suspected of being a mole. By monitoring this person, they discovered the person behind the mole. As the investigation unfolded, they even tracked down six spies with different identities.

After listening to Zheng Yi's report, Zhang Anping fell into thought.

A total of seven spies were discovered by the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, plus the two spies discovered by the Military Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, which added up to nine people - if a secret arrest was launched at this time, these nine people would definitely lead to several spies!
"Grasp!"

Zhang Anping made a choice - at this point, it would not be worth it if the news leaked out due to negligence.

He then said:
"At 12 o'clock tonight, a unified arrest operation will be launched!"

Zheng Yi was stunned when she heard this. The word "unification" gave her a bad feeling. She asked cautiously:

"Commander Zhang, is there any progress on the Central Bureau of Investigation side?"

Zhang Anping glanced at Zheng Yi and said, "You'll know when the time comes - notify the interrogation department. After we catch the person tonight, no matter what method we use, we must pry his mouth open before tomorrow morning!"

"It doesn't matter if the person is dead or not, we have to pry open his mouth!"

Just one simple sentence made Zheng Yi feel the iron-bloodedness represented by the name Zhang Shihao.

It doesn’t matter whether people die or not!
Zheng Yi responded respectfully.

Only then did she have a clear understanding of the towering mountain in front of her - he was very different from those men who displayed all kinds of gentlemanly manners in front of her.

It's not just the identities that are different.

……

The arrest began at 12 o'clock that night.

This time, the arrest operation carried out simultaneously by the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation was extremely successful. Seven spies were targeted by the Central Bureau of Investigation and two spies were targeted by the Military Bureau of Investigation. They were successfully arrested while they were sleeping.

That night, the interrogation departments of the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation began interrogation overnight. Because of Zhang Anping's confession, the interrogation departments on both sides went straight to the point of killing him. In just over an hour, they pried out key information.

Continue arresting overnight.

That night, the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation were dispatched several times. Together with the nine spies captured the first time, they captured a total of sixteen members of the Great Thief Intelligence Group, including two Japanese agents.

Based on the intelligence they provided, the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation arrested more than 20 traitors who were developed into spies by these people at dawn.

The arresting officers who had not slept all night fell into madness after learning the result in the morning. The "Thief Intelligence Team" that had troubled them for quite a long time was wiped out by them so easily!

Although according to the confession, the core behind the scenes code-named "One-Armed Bandit" escaped, the entire thief intelligence team was completely destroyed.

[Commander Zhang is really... unstoppable! ]

The spies looked towards the headquarters with fanaticism in their eyes. The thief intelligence team that had troubled them for so long was easily wiped out as soon as Commander Zhang arrived, like boiling water pouring into snow.

At this time, Zhang Anping, holding the results he had compiled, fell into deep thought.

Everything seemed to be fine. Two core Japanese spies were arrested, and so many spies were also arrested.

But he always felt something was wrong. (End of this chapter)
