Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 796 The fox’s tail can’t be hidden

Even though it was past midnight, there was still an annex building of the Hong Kong Island Police Force in Tai Kwun that was brightly lit.

There is no doubt that this is the command center of the DC-8 special operation.

After the official convoy with the police car No. 2 as the core returned to the police station's Tai Kwun parking lot, Zhou Quan went upstairs directly with his trusted subordinates who had no other tasks for the time being, preparing to hold a meeting behind closed doors.

In the glass house that temporarily served as Zhou Quan's office, Luo Danian, Liu Baoqiang, Chen Guohua and others sat around him.

This special operation against DC-8 is undoubtedly centered on Zhou Quan's most loyal department.

Almost all senior officers of the National Security Department of the entire police force were directly or indirectly involved in this operation.

Except for a few police officers present, everyone else is already in the state of carrying out their tasks.

For example, Kwong Chi-lap, He Wenzhan and others, and most of the NS's Operations Security Department were personally stationed in the North District Hazardous Materials Handling Warehouse.

Since the establishment of this department of the Hong Kong government, the security force tonight is so strong that it is unprecedented in history.

Not only did the police force's National Security Department's elite operations personnel move in, but Chen Yongren also mobilized two reserve companies from the mobile force headquarters to strengthen guards.

Unless a war breaks out, anyone with ill intentions should not even think of getting close to the North District Hazardous Materials Warehouse.

"Aqiang, after Anian and I left, did anything unusual happen inside the command center?"

Leaning leisurely in his office chair, Zhou Quan had a meaningful smile on his face.

He invited Professor Zhao Zhiren to join the special working group, but did not arrange for him to be present at the scene in person.

At the same time, the police force was taking major actions.

Even he, the highest person in charge, left the command center of the special operations team late at night.

Under such circumstances, how could Zhao Zhiren, who had lost contact with the outside world, sit still?

Zhou Quan, who already knew the true background of Professor Zhao, naturally suspected that he was doing something secretly.

Therefore, before Zhou Quan left the police station Tai Kwun and headed to Tak Hing Street in Jordan.

He arranged for Luo Danian to secretly monitor and analyze and investigate all communications within the command center with the outside world.

However, Luo Danian was determined to stand by his boss, so this task temporarily fell on Liu Baoqiang.

After all, among the five core management personnel of the National Security Department, he was the only one who had the easiest duties at that time.

"Boss, we actually found some abnormalities."

Liu Baoqiang's face was full of solemnity, and he slowly began to recount the results of his investigation.

"There is something very suspicious about Professor Zhao Zhiren, who is a member of the academic and expert advisory group."

This conclusion immediately caused a flash of surprise in Zhou Quan's eyes.

He had some guesses deep in his heart, but they were ultimately just inferences.

Now that the facts are before him, he is naturally very interested.

"Oh? Tell me carefully!"

With a slight exclamation, Zhou Quan slowly straightened his sitting posture.

"Less than fifteen minutes after you and Mr. Luo set out, Professor Zhao came to see you."

Without any hesitation or delay, Liu Baoqiang immediately made a more detailed work report.

"When he learned that you were not in the command center, he made a call to the outside world."

"On the surface, Professor Zhao seems to be concerned about his students' homework."

"But in fact, after Rongzi and Weizi's analysis, we concluded that this phone call was a coded message."

"We have already deciphered the contents of the codeword."

"Professor Zhao is looking for some people outside to help investigate the whereabouts of you and Sir Luo." Having said this, Liu Baoqiang paused slightly.

"In addition, we also found that the phone number that contacted Professor Zhao had the last call three hours ago, which was from the Yau Tsim District."

He continued to report to his boss on the operations he and his brothers were currently deploying.

"Rongzi is staring at that line right now."

"Wei Zai has gone to Peng Zai's place and is going to compare the suspicious call to see if it belongs to the criminals of the Red Bandits Organization."

Be it Liu Baoqiang, Yang Jinrong or Zhuang Ziwei, they are by no means just internal investigators of the police force.

You know, these three of them are elite operators trained by Zhou Quan.

There was no doubt about the sensitivity of the case among the three of them.

How could the deep meaning behind Professor Zhao Zhiren's small moves at such a critical moment be simple?

Without thinking too much, the three of them immediately connected the case to the DC-8 case.

As for cracking Zhao Zhiren's secret communication, it was also not worth mentioning for the three of them.

Yang Jinrong is fine, but Liu Baoqiang and Zhuang Ziwei are both senior members of the intelligence team who have served since the Security Department era.

Even though they have now been transferred to the Political Investigation Department, it does not mean that they will neglect their abilities and vigilance.

After Liu Baoqiang finished his work report, Chen Guohua spoke up right after.

"Boss, we have also found some suspicious points about Professor Zhao."

"According to the other party's file information, his original place of origin is overseas Chinese in Vietnam."

"But when we contacted the Interpol Vietnam Central Bureau and asked them to help investigate and provide evidence."

"The information sent by the other party does not match the current photo of Professor Zhao Zhiren."

This investigation was not arranged by Zhou Quan.

Instead, when the nuclear crisis drill in Hong Kong Island began, the National Security Department of the police force screened all important persons involved in accordance with normal procedures.

Professor Zhao Zhiren now holds a legal and compliant Hong Kong identity document.

But his information shows that he is of Chinese descent in Vietnam.

The Hong Kong government's archival records about him all come from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and only cover the last ten years.

The operations of the National Security Department of the Police Force have always been safe and secure.

If the other party's archival information before he became a Hong Kong citizen is unclear, then we can follow the clues to verify it.

This investigation process continues to this day with the launch of the DC-8 operation.

No matter what role the other party plays, there is definitely something fishy behind Professor Zhao Zhiren.

"Hold on and play the long game to catch the big fish."

Nodding slightly, Zhou Quan made a deployment plan without hesitation.

"No matter how mysterious Professor Zhao is, now that he has made his move, he can no longer hide."

"Anian, arrange the duty roster for the brothers, and rotate them so that they are relaxed on the outside and tight on the inside."

"A special action meeting will be held during working hours tomorrow."

In the current situation, their police force has firmly controlled the initiative.

Just sit back and wait for the other party to expose more flaws.
