Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Mao Renfeng had no worries about getting rid of Jiang Si'an—the shops and warehouses he controlled were places that Xiang Yingxin had personally visited, and the shopkeepers there had all seen Jiang Si'an. As long as he showed them Jiang Si'an's photo, he could "pin" her down.

We'll just take them down then.

After taking down Jiang Si'an, a corrupt general in Zhang's faction, let's see if Zhang Anping will sacrifice a pawn to save the king or expose Mao Renfeng.

If Zhang Anping chooses to expose Mao Renfeng, then Jiang Si'an, a corrupt general in Zhang's faction, is likely just a tool for Zhang Anping to amass wealth!

Regardless of whether it is true or not, Zhang Anping will be caught in the middle and won't be liked by either side.

At worst, they could widen the hole and directly investigate the accounts of the Shanghai district during the War of Resistance. Whether they can find any problems is not important, but the huge wave that Zhang Anping stirred up with his anti-corruption campaign will inevitably become a joke.

So after making these arrangements, Mao Renfeng put them aside and began to devise plans for his upcoming hand-to-hand combat with Zhang Anping.

But then something went wrong!
The phone rang shrilly, and Mao Renfeng answered it.

"Chief, something's happened!"

Mao Renfeng said coldly, "The sky won't fall down!"

"Speak, what is it!"

"We've messed up. We found the Chen family's warehouse, and now we're in a standoff with those bastards from the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics."

Mao Renfeng felt a surge of anger rising within him: "You bastards! What did I tell you to investigate? Why are you searching the Chen family's warehouse?"

"Director, the warehouse we're investigating is exactly the one you wanted us to investigate!"

what?
An ominous premonition arose, and Mao Renfeng felt a chill run down her spine. Could it be that Zhang Anping deliberately set up this formation?

He wants me to investigate?
【impossible! Absolutely impossible! 】

Mao Renfeng firmly refused to believe it.

"I'll talk to the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) and tell you not to clash with our allies right now!"

He reached out and pressed the hang-up button, and just as he was about to dial again, the shrill ring of the phone rang once more.

A thought came to mind:
Could it be a call from the people who raided the shop?

Suppressing her fear, Mao Renfeng let go of the phone and answered it.

"Director, something's happened—we're investigating the Song family's shops..."

Mao Renfeng didn't hear what was said after that.

Because he had completely realized that he had been tricked—but the problem was that these shops clearly belonged to Jiang Si'an, so when did they become the Taotie family's property?

Which part went wrong?

Mao Renfeng realized he couldn't follow the normal procedures, so he gritted his teeth and made a phone call:

"I am Mao Renfeng—arrest Jiang Si'an immediately!"

"immediately!"

As soon as he gave the order, the arrest team, which had been waiting in the wings, rushed to Jiang Si'an's residence in Nanjing.

But the scene that greeted the arresting team after they broke down the door left them completely dumbfounded.

The house was spotless, literally spotless. There wasn't a single piece of furniture that could be moved. It was as clean as if it had been swept away by locusts!

No, after locusts sweep through, there will at least be some messy residue, but Jiang Si'an's house was swept very clean, even the floor was swept!

The arrest team was taken aback, and then reported to Mao Renfeng.

"Director, he's gone! Jiang Si'an has run away! He's been gone for a while! His house is completely empty, there's nothing left!"

"Impossible!" Mao Renfeng didn't believe it at all—he couldn't keep an eye on Jiang Si'an, let alone eavesdrop, but he could keep an eye on him through the training course. Jiang Si'an was still "obediently" working today, how could he have run away?

"Director, he really ran away! He even left a letter for Commander Zhang!"

"Fuck you, Commander Zhang! Who the hell are you working for? Are you my man, Mao Renfeng's man, or someone surnamed Zhang?" Mao Renfeng lost his temper and started cursing.

The agent on the other end of the phone was so frightened that he stammered and didn't dare to breathe.
After hurling her insults, Mao Renfeng regained her composure: "Bring me the letter. I want to see what that Zhang guy is up to!"

Before long, the arrest team sent an unlucky guy to deliver the letter. Fortunately, Mao Renfeng regained his composure and did not vent his anger on the soldier who delivered the letter. After receiving the letter, he quickly opened it and began to scan it.

The letter roughly states:

Teacher, I have worked diligently for the Party and the country, and even risked great danger to infiltrate the heart of the Japanese invaders. But the Party and the country have failed me, Jiang. Now, I am resigning. Please take care, teacher.

"Resign and leave?"

"Go to hell! You're absconding with the money!"

Mao Renfeng broke down again. That bastard had run off with her money!
"No! No!"

After calming down from her anger, Mao Renfeng realized that Jiang Si'an was Zhang Anping's disciple. How could he betray Zhang Anping so easily?

Bureau!

It must have been a trap set by Zhang Anping, with the aim of stealing... his... money?

Mao Renfeng lost confidence; Zhang Anping wouldn't set up such a low-class scheme, and he certainly wouldn't be after her money alone.

"Which part of the process went wrong?"

Mao Renfeng couldn't help but pound his head with his fist; he was truly stunned.

Just then, the secretary came in and was shocked to see Mao Renfeng "self-harming." Could it be that Deputy Director Mao realized he had angered Commander Zhang and regretted it?

"what's up?"

The secretary reported in a low voice:
"Deputy Director Zhang has returned to headquarters."

He almost called him Commander Zhang, but luckily he managed to correct himself at the crucial moment.

"That bastard, he got here so fast!"

Mao Renfeng gritted his teeth, his gaze fell on the letter in his hand, and then his eyes lit up – he had an idea!
……

After Zhang Anping got off the plane, Zheng Yi picked him up.

Xu Baichuan and Zhang Anping squeezed into the same car, listening to Zheng Yi report the latest intelligence.

"About half of a regiment in the 189th Division of the 72nd Army mutinied, and they have now joined up with the mutinied soldiers of the 3rd Battalion."

Xu Baichuan's expression hardened: "189th Division?"

Zhang Anping's expression was no better. He asked in a low voice, "Are you sure it's the 189th Division?"

Zheng Yi nodded solemnly.

"How...how could it be the 189th Division?!"

Xu Baichuan's expression was full of confusion. The predecessor of the 189th Division was the New 88th Division!

That was a formidable force that fought its way from Shanghai to the Kuomintang-controlled areas during the August 13th Uprising. During that time, it was also reinforced by another elite force that Zhang Anping had brought from Shanghai during his campaign. It could be said to be Zhang Anping's only direct subordinate in the army.

From the Zhejiang-Jiangxi front to the Expeditionary Force, this unit was known for its bravery and fighting spirit. So how did a mutiny occur?

"In addition..." Zheng Yi hesitated for a moment, then said, "There is some uncertain intelligence. Some troops of the 72nd Army blocked the retreat route of the mutineers of the No. 3 Battalion, but the mutineers of the No. 3 Battalion seemed to have discovered the ambush before they crashed into the ambush area, turned around and ran away, and then joined up with the mutineers of the 189th Division."

Xu Baichuan immediately cursed, "Damn it, this is a death wish!"

After receiving the notice to thoroughly investigate snipers within the military and guard against Communist spies, Xu Baichuan knew that certain people were involved, but he did not expect that the 72nd Army would be involved, and that they would be directly targeting him to eliminate him.

Of course, the suspicious points are also obvious—the mutinous snipers suddenly stopped before entering the ambush zone, which clearly indicates that a third party was involved.

Zhang Anping took a deep breath: "The intelligence must be conclusive; inaccurate intelligence is unacceptable—hurry up and get to headquarters."

“Anping, you can’t go—” Xu Baichuan pressed Zhang Anping down: “They’re capable of doing something like this, what if…”

Xu Baichuan seemed unsatisfied, but his meaning was clear: what if they detained him directly at headquarters?
If Zhang Anping were to "disappear" for a period of time at a critical moment, the entire Zhang faction would likely face serious problems!
Of course, given Zhang Anping's status, they might not dare to, but would they dare to gamble on the odds?

Zhang Anping thought for a moment and said, "Old Xu, get out of the car—if I don't hear from you within a day, then lead the troops to storm the headquarters!"

Zhang Anping's face was filled with murderous intent: "If they dare to do it, I'll turn this world upside down!"

"Then you..." Xu Baichuan was a little worried that some people might resort to desperate measures and directly harm Zhang Anping.

"Don't worry, they wouldn't dare kill me!"

Xu Baichuan thought about it and agreed. At most, those people could just secretly imprison Zhang Anping, but even that would be a huge risk.

If someone dares to kill Zhang Anping inside the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, that would be treason!

He nodded solemnly: "Yes, I'll wait for your news!"

After Xu Baichuan left, Zhang Anping pretended to doze off and didn't say another word—in fact, Old Xu's worries were completely unnecessary. Although Zheng Yaoquan was also one of the instigators, he was just an instigator and could only be an instigator. For Zheng Yaoquan, the worst outcome was nothing more than losing the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, but the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics was an unexpected gain for him. Even if he lost the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, he still had the Second Department in his hands, so he wouldn't suffer a complete loss.

But if he dares to lay a hand on Zhang Anping, the section chief will definitely blacklist him. Even if he gets through this hurdle, he'll be doomed in the future. It's very clear which is more important.

The one who was truly anxious and restless from beginning to end was only one person:

Mao Renfeng!
Of course, the gluttons were also restless, but because of the 66th Division incident, they were much more obedient now. If they continued to provoke the section chief, it would be a death sentence. The adjutant's tolerance for them was not endless. The section chief represented his will, not that he was going to chop off their heads with a knife. If they continued to be so presumptuous, the adjutant would have to think carefully!

But was Zhang Anping's real target... really Mao Renfeng?

As the convoy approached the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, a car suddenly sped up from the side, putting the already tense agents on edge. Fortunately, the car didn't hit Zhang Anping's vehicle, but stopped a few meters away, and a person got out.

Wang Tianfeng!
Because of Wang Tianfeng, Zhang Anping ordered a halt to the convoy. After the convoy stopped, Wang Tianfeng went straight to Zhang Anping's car, but found nothing—it wasn't Zhang Anping sitting in that car.

In the other car, Zheng Yi's eyes flickered, then he asked Zhang Anping in a low voice, "Chief Qu?"

"Let him come up."

Zheng Yi got off the car:

"Director Wang, over here."

Wang Tianfeng strode over, got into the car and sat down next to Zhang Anping without saying a word. Zhang Anping glanced at him but remained silent, signaling the convoy to move forward.

After swaying and rocking inside the car for a while, Wang Tianfeng suddenly said:
"Jiang Si'an ran away."

"Huh?" Zhang Anping looked at Wang Tianfeng with a puzzled expression, while Wang Tianfeng stared intently into Zhang Anping's eyes and said, word by word:

"Jiang Si'an has escaped!"

"disappeared!"

Zhang Anping's expression turned cold: "Mao Renfeng did this?"

Wang Tianfeng stared intently at Zhang Anping, but the impatience in Zhang Anping's eyes grew stronger before he finally spoke:

"When Mao Renfeng tried to deal with him and arrest him, he had already escaped!"

The coldness on Zhang Anping's face dissipated, revealing a playful expression:
"To deal with a top agent who has been operating in the heart of the Japanese invaders for years and has the backing of countless Japanese nobles and the Japanese Navy, Mao Renfeng is far from capable!"

"A domesticated dog trying to fight a carnivorous wolf..."

"Delusion!"

Wang Tianfeng believed that Jiang Si'an's disappearance was a scheme set up by Zhang Anping, which meant that Zhang Anping was targeting Xiang Yingxin.

But Zhang Anping's words overturned his idea:

Jiang Si'an's disappearance was not Zhang Anping's doing!

Therefore, Jiang Si'an's actions were not Zhang Anping's doing!

After confirming that it had nothing to do with Zhang Anping, Wang Tianfeng said in a low voice, "Jiang Si'an secretly integrated the network from when he was Okamoto Heiji."

"What did you say?"

"He wants to replicate the original Okamoto Company in Nanjing, Shanghai, and other places!"

"Damn it!" Zhang Anping angrily slammed his fist down. "What is he trying to do? The Bureau of Investigation and Statistics today is not the Military Intelligence Bureau of the past. Does he want to die?"

At this moment, Zhang Anping felt a sense of betrayal and anger—the teacher was fighting corruption with all his might, but the students were undermining him from behind.
How could I not be angry!
"So he ran away? He ran away the moment Mao Renfeng made a move?" Zhang Anping's expression suddenly changed: "Is there something else? Old Wang, don't hide anything!"

Zhang Anping stared intently at Wang Tianfeng, as if he had suddenly realized something.

During this period, the intelligence department was practically invisible.

Zhang Anping launched a vigorous anti-corruption campaign, but the intelligence department under Wang Tianfeng's command failed to provide much compelling evidence. Zhang Anping's current demeanor seemed to say, "Now I understand why your intelligence department hasn't given me any support!"
"Jiang Si'an accepted Xiang Yingxin's gold bars." Wang Tianfeng looked back at Zhang Anping: "Not just a few dozen—"

"That was all of the Mao family's assets."

Zhang Anping said, enunciating each word clearly, "So, you suspect I colluded with Mao Renfeng? Was everything an act by me?"

Wang Tianfeng remained silent.

If it weren't for the incident at Battalion No. 3, and if the 72nd Army hadn't intended to kill the snipers of Battalion No. 3 to cover it up, he believed that Jiang Si'an was carrying out Zhang Anping's plan.

He always thought that Zhang and Mao were actually plotting against Liu Bang, and that the real target was Zheng Yaoquan.

Otherwise, the affair between Jiang Si'an and Xiang Yingxin is illogical, completely illogical!
Even when the Third Battalion was in trouble, even when he saw Mao Renfeng trying to kill Zhang Anping, he still suspected it was a setup by Zhang and Mao.

That's why he vented his anger by almost cutting off another car.

But Zhang Anping's cold laugh after hearing Jiang Si'an's disappearance, and his anger at Jiang Si'an's attempt to replicate Okamoto's actions, led him to choose to believe Zhang Anping.

The convoy had already entered the headquarters and stopped. Zhang Anping said disappointedly:
"Wang Tianfeng, is that really who I am in your eyes?"

After saying that, he was about to get out of the car when Wang Tianfeng suddenly said:

"The mutiny of the 66th Division has a hidden story!"

Zhang Anping, who was about to get off the bus, looked coldly at Wang Tianfeng: "What do you mean?"

"The mutiny had the shadow of the Communist Party, but the real mastermind was Zhao Qiyuan!"

Wang Tianfeng said slowly, "This is a play that was directed and acted by ourselves but went wrong—can't you really see that?"

Zhang Anping benefited from the mutiny of the 66th Division, and the reports submitted by Mao Renfeng and Zheng Yaoquan perfectly corroborated the intelligence provided by Zhang Anping:

The Communist Party has infiltrated the 66th Division severely!
In short, the report concludes that everyone is happy except the Communist Party.

In Wang Tianfeng's view, this was clearly evidence and manifestation of Zhang and Mao's secret conspiracy.

"You orchestrated this yourself? You messed it up?" Zhang Anping looked at Wang Tianfeng in disbelief, took a deep breath, and said, "Come to my office and tell me everything!"

"Ah."

Zhang Anping then turned and got out of the car, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes the moment he opened the door.

Wang Tianfeng is a variable, a deadly variable!

It wasn't because Wang Tianfeng exposed the inside story of the 66th Division uprising, nor was it because Wang Tianfeng mistakenly judged that he and Mao Renfeng were secretly allied against Zheng Yaoquan, but rather...

He hadn't heard a single word about what Wang Tianfeng had found out!
The intelligence department is Wang Tianfeng's intelligence department, but it also has Zhang Anping's loyal followers, and quite a few of them!

However, he hadn't heard a single word about Wang Tianfeng's actions!

Mao Renfeng ordered the attack on Jiang Si'an, and Chai Ying, who represented his will, received this order immediately.

Zheng Yaoquan was outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant towards the section chief; his little tricks couldn't escape his notice!

This is the current Bureau of Secrecy, a Bureau of Secrecy that is actually under the control of Zhang Anping!

However, Wang Tianfeng's movements were able to escape his sight!

what does this mean?
Within the intelligence department, there exists a force unknown even to themselves and entirely controlled by Wang Tianfeng, a force that has prevented them from infiltrating.

That's the real problem.

So, where does this force come from?
It cannot appear out of nowhere.

The Military Intelligence Bureau is being reorganized!

Zhang Anping immediately realized the key point.

At the time, he asked Wang Tianfeng if he had taken the opportunity to make any moves—Wang Tianfeng said no.

He even secretly tested it—and indeed there wasn't.

But he was wrong. Wang Tianfeng had gathered a group of elite agents who had been laid off—only these people were outside his field of vision, and only these people could be completely controlled by Wang Tianfeng.

The storm churned in his mind, but Zhang Anping showed little emotion, only coldness and anger. Just as he stepped into the office building, Mao Renfeng suddenly came to greet him.

"Deputy Director Zhang!"

Zhang Anping looked at Mao Renfeng coldly: "Deputy Director Mao, what are your instructions?"

Mao Renfeng smiled and extended her hand: "Your letter."

"mine?"

Zhang Anping calmly took the letter, unfolded it in front of Mao Renfeng, and after reading it, he showed no anger, only saying quietly:
"good very good."

After that, he turned around and left.

Mao Renfeng watched Zhang Anping's retreating figure, her heart sinking slightly.

Jiang Si'an's disappearance was indeed not Zhang Anping's doing. (End of Chapter)
