Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

It was already 11 o'clock when I finished the meal with the section chief.

When Zhang Anping got home, it was already 11:30. He tiptoed into the bedroom, not wanting to disturb his sleeping wife. However, as soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw Zeng Moyi anxiously coming to greet him.

Zeng Moyi lowered her voice: "Anping, something has happened."

"Take your time," Zhang Anping said, his expression hardening, signaling to his wife not to be nervous.

Zeng Moyi's expression was solemn: "Wang Tianfeng raided and arrested Lao Xi and his son Xi Yunwei. A comrade from the Municipal Party Committee was also arrested by accident. The Municipal Party Committee urgently contacted Sister Chai, asking us to find a way to ensure the safety of this comrade from the Municipal Party Committee."

"If, if this comrade cannot be rescued, we must at least obtain a crucial piece of information from him."

To put it bluntly, in underground work, being arrested is commonplace. The organization has very sophisticated countermeasures, and there are rescues after being arrested, but they would never be as urgent as the Municipal Party Committee's response this time, rushing to find Intelligence Group No. 2.

Unless one possibility exists:
The intelligence this comrade possesses is extremely crucial!
This is also why Zeng Moyi was anxious. At 8 p.m., Chai Ying visited Zhang's family to see her under the guise of being a colleague, which already proved how urgent the matter was. But Zhang Anping had not returned home that night.

Zeng Moyi was almost driven to despair.

Zhang Anping exclaimed in astonishment, "Why were Lao Xi and Xi Yunwei arrested?!"

Xi Yunwei was originally a member of the Xi'an station of the Special Service Department. During the December 12 Incident, Zhang Anping traveled a long distance to Xi'an to deliver a head and met him. Seeing that the other party was a radio expert, he "tricked" him into joining the special intelligence group at that time.

He later became a radio expert in the special group. Although he secretly assembled radio components into radios and "sold" them to the underground party, he was always protected by Zhang Anping as a technical talent because he had not received real special agent training.

According to Zhang Anping's plan, the period after the three major campaigns would be the time for the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics to vigorously recruit Party members, and only then would technical experts like Xi Yunwei be truly absorbed.

As for Xi Yunwei's father, Lao Xi, he was a fur merchant before becoming Zhang Anping's "representative" and in charge of the pig bristle business.

When Lao Xi was at the height of his power, even the scions of the four great families treated him with respect—but Lao Xi adhered to his principles, never cheating in the pig bristle business, and never allowing the pig bristles in his hands to flow to the Japanese.

After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the pig bristle trade was completely controlled by the Nationalist government, and Lao Xi was essentially incorporated into the Nationalist government, in charge of the pig bristle trade with the United States.

But soon Lao Xi discovered that some of the pig bristles produced by the Nationalist government had ended up with the Japanese. Enraged, he insisted on an investigation, which resulted in him being kicked out of the industry.

At that time, Dai Chunfeng was in charge of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and the Bureau had one rule:
The Military Intelligence Bureau can only leave horizontally!

However, with Zhang Anping's personal guarantee, Lao Xi was able to smoothly leave the Kuomintang and become an ordinary businessman.

Xi Yunwei was not recruited by the Second Intelligence Group, and Lao Xi was just an ordinary businessman who previously held a position in the Military Intelligence Bureau. So, from Zhang Anping's perspective, how could this father and son possibly be arrested?

“Old Xi is a patriotic capitalist developed by the municipal party committee,” Zeng Moyi explained. “Because he did not join the party, the municipal party committee did not report him as required.”

Because of the existence of Intelligence Group No. 2, organizations in various regions all knew a rule: once a member was recruited into the Military Intelligence Bureau (Bureau of Investigation and Statistics) or the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (Bureau of Party Affairs), it had to be reported.

Once reported, this person's organizational affiliation would be placed in the second intelligence group—but the patriotic capitalist was not among those reported.

Zhang Anping was speechless; such a loophole had actually appeared.

Then he asked, "What about Xi Yunwei?"

Zeng Moyi could only smile wryly upon hearing this.

"Xi Yunwei's situation is even more special. He secretly took radio parts to assemble radios and sold them to our comrades in secret. It was practically a sale to our comrades. But he kept a low profile and never showed his face. Our comrades knew very little about him, and even if they wanted to recruit him, they had nowhere to start."

Zhang Anping was speechless.

For an organization, there can never be enough radios—whether for military or underground use, no matter how many there are, it will never be enough unless each person has one; otherwise, there will always be a shortage.

Regarding global trade, multiple working groups from Intelligence Group No. 2 are stationed there (working within the organization), and the radio stations continuously transmit data to the organization within reasonable limits, but the gap can never be filled.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Anping asked:

"The father and son were unaware of each other's identities?"

Zeng Moyi said:

"They don't know each other. Our comrades reported that Wang Tianfeng secretly cooperated with the police station. They first locked onto Lao Xi, and only when they were monitoring Lao Xi did they discover that Xi Yunwei was selling radios."

"The reason we arrested Lao Xi was because we caught Xi Yunwei selling radios in the act, so we arrested him as well. That comrade was arrested on the spot when he went to Lao Xi's house under the pretext of discussing business."

Zhang Anping's pupils suddenly contracted:

"The message came from one of Wang Tianfeng's comrades?"

"Ah."

“Then it couldn’t have been a coincidence!” Zhang Anping took a deep breath: “Since Wang Tianfeng had planned the arrest, it’s impossible for such a coincidence to happen!”

Zeng Moyi looked at Zhang Anping in astonishment.

Zhang Anping paced back and forth, a strange unease creeping into his heart.

Wang Tianfeng's agents were mainly exchange cadres from the Party's Information Bureau. Among these people, only one was his own comrade, so he stuffed in several elite soldiers from the Security Bureau. These people were mainly his own comrades. Logically speaking, Wang Tianfeng's every move would be impossible to escape the eyes of these comrades!

But he secretly cooperated with the police.

I didn't even know about this!

Zhang Anping had never underestimated the threat posed by Wang Tianfeng. After the last assassination attempt had to be stopped and failed, Zhang Anping saw that Wang Tianfeng was going to fake his death, so he used this "keeping" method to completely control Wang Tianfeng and use him to achieve the goal of "revealing" Minglou's identity.

But now, things have once again slipped out of my control.

He composed himself, smiled, and said to his wife:

"I'll go see Sister Chai later—I'll handle this."

Zeng Moyi naturally believed Zhang Anping's words without reservation, but what she didn't know was that this time, Zhang Anping had a strange sense of unease constantly swaying in his heart.

……

late at night.

Zhang Anping secretly slipped out of his house and, through a prepared tunnel, arrived at a secret room located beneath Chai Ying's house. He then used a coded signal to notify Chai Ying of his arrival.

Chai Ying was naturally not asleep. The notice from the municipal party committee came urgently to her door. If the intelligence held by the arrested comrades was not extremely special, how could they have done this?

She dared not sleep without seeing Zhang Anping!

However, upon seeing Zhang Anping, she inexplicably felt relieved.

It seems that with Zhang Anping around, nothing is a problem.

Zeng Moyi possessed all the information that Chai Ying knew. Zhang Anping's purpose in coming here was not to inquire about already known information again. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he asked in a deep voice:
"Who sent you the message to disappear?"

Chai Ying was taken aback for a moment, then immediately said, "It's Group D."

Group D?

Zhang Anping immediately recalled the relevant information about the group in his mind—the comrade of Group D who was undercover next to Wang Tianfeng was named Zeng Jingci, a patriotic youth who joined the Military Intelligence Bureau in 41. After joining the organization, his affiliation was transferred to the Second Intelligence Group.

"Everyone in Group D, go into silence and cut off all contact with Group D! Have the comrade in charge of Group D immediately evacuate to the liberated area."

Chai Ying was shocked: "Anping, what happened?" "I hope I'm just overthinking it." Zhang Anping didn't explain why. Chai Ying realized it was Zhang Anping's intuition and asked, "What do you feel is wrong?!"

"Wang Tianfeng, when did you join forces with the police station? I didn't receive a single piece of information! The information we have now is far too comprehensive!"

comprehensive?

Chai Ying was taken aback. It was indeed comprehensive. Zhang Anping didn't even know about Wang Tianfeng's collaboration with the police station, but the intelligence they had obtained contained such information. Not only that, but the most important comrade seemed insignificant in the intelligence, like a "gift."

It's either a coincidence, or it was something Wang Tianfeng did on purpose.

Otherwise, if even Zhang Anping didn't know about Wang Tianfeng's secret collaboration with the police station, why would the undercover comrades in Group D have such knowledge?

Chai Ying said solemnly, "Your concerns are valid. If there's anything suspicious about this, then the problem is serious!"

Seeing that Chai Ying agreed, Zhang Anping felt slightly relieved. He then took a deep breath and said, "Sister Chai, please contact the comrades in the Municipal Party Committee and ask them what intelligence the arrested comrade possessed. I know this is against discipline, but it's very important!"

"I see."

"Have someone inform Xi Yunwei's wife to go to the Security Bureau tomorrow to find Yu Beiping. Tell Yu Beiping to use the excuse that he and Xi Yunwei are good friends to tell me about this, and see how I react."

"it is good."

After recounting this, Zhang Anping hesitated for a moment before bringing up the plans he had already completed.

When Chai Ying heard that Zhang Anping had easily "wiped out" all the elders of the Tongmenghui through Huang Lao, she didn't know what to say—one person was worth more than half an intelligence team!
"By the way, talk to Sister Qian and gather information on patriotic capitalists. This time, we can take advantage of the director to invest in the factories under these patriotic capitalists and expand their production capacity."

“I don’t think we need to worry about the other work.” Zhang Anping couldn’t help but smile as he said this.

He never needed to worry about the united front work with workers and peasants.

In Northeast China, Jiang Si'an had already completed the security work for the public facilities in several cities. Chai Ying had naturally read the detailed work reports and knew what Zhang Anping meant, so she smiled knowingly.

If the future Nationalist government wanted to destroy these factories that had been expanded with public funds, it would have to ask the factory workers who were protecting them for their consent!
This future belongs to the people!
……

Zhang Anping didn't sleep a wink that night.

Why did this unexpected turn of events occur at Wang Tianfeng's place?

What is Tang Zong planning this time, secretly cooperating with the police station?
Is the problem with the municipal party committee member who was arrested?
Could the Xi family father and son be Wang Tianfeng's bait?

A series of questions lingered in Zhang Anping's mind, preventing him from finding peace of mind.

morning.

Despite not having slept all night, Zhang Anping showed no signs of fatigue and was as energetic as ever. After breakfast, he waited for his driver to arrive and then went to work as usual.

……

morning.

The "spy" called Zeng Jingci, dressed in a suit and tie, hailed a rickshaw, told him his destination, and leisurely got in, crossing his legs and enjoying the driver's brisk ride.

His persona is that of a white-collar worker—but he is actually a spy under Wang Tianfeng, and he is on his way to work at this moment.

The driver pulled the cart out of the alley. Zeng Jingci habitually looked up and glanced at it. When he saw the rose pot, his expression changed.

It's... a signal to remain silent!

problem occurs?
I just delivered the message yesterday, and today... we're going to be silent?
Zeng Jingci's mind was in turmoil—he was secretly a spy under Wang Tianfeng, and his actual identity was a member of the underground party, but the signal he was seeing now was clearly a signal for him to remain silent.

He was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses. He pretended that nothing had happened, but the gloom in his eyes lingered for a long time.

What happened?
The question lingered in my mind, and I couldn't shake it off for a long time.

……

Wang Tianfeng's stronghold.

On the table sat a strangely assembled radio.

Looking at the radio, Wang Tianfeng revealed a chilling expression.

The extremely high component failure rate went completely unnoticed by anyone in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics!
A large number of the registered destroyed parts were found in Xi Yunwei's secret workshop—what were the people in charge of the destruction doing? And what were the security department in charge of security doing?
Xi Yunwei...

Is Xi Yunwei the only one in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics?!

With a slight sigh, Wang Tianfeng took the radio off the table and placed it in the storage room behind him. In the storage room, there was another radio with a similarly strange shape.

In fact, it was because the police first found the radio in the storage room and eventually identified it as a radio pieced together from parts from the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics that Wang Tianfeng was able to arrest Xi Yunwei.

Just as I came out of the storage room, the newly selected adjutant walked in.

The adjutant whispered to Wang Tianfeng:

"Chief, the target seems to have just received some signal. The guys over there are reviewing the scene and trying to identify the source of the signal."

Wang Tianfeng was stunned: "You've already received a signal?!"

"The guy keeping watch was a veteran from over there. He was good at observing through micro-expressions. He was certain that the target had a sudden change in expression, and he was sure that it was because he had received some kind of signal."

Upon hearing his adjutant's words, Wang Tianfeng couldn't help but clench his fist again. Reorganization, reorganization, what a fine reorganization! So many talented people have been pushed out to benefit the police station!

He sat down silently and tapped the table lightly, imitating Zhang Anping's manner.

Logically, the target only sent out the message last night, so it's impossible to receive feedback so early this morning!

But it did arrive, and there was a change in his expression.

What kind of signal would it be?
Just as he was pondering this, the phone rang shrilly. Wang Tianfeng slowly picked it up.

"Chief, it's confirmed, it's a flowerpot—the signal is a flowerpot!"

Hearing the ecstatic voice on the other end of the phone, Wang Tianfeng's expression turned inexplicably gloomy.

Flower pots can only convey such simple signals, usually warnings or evacuation...

Wang Tianfeng slammed his hand on the table:
"Arrests!"

"Furthermore, close in immediately!"

Close the net?

The person on the other end of the phone was stunned. They had only discovered the contact person for the target yesterday, and now they were going to close the net?

"immediately!"

Wang Tianfeng's voice was unusually urgent. (End of Chapter)
