My spy diary

Chapter 224 Action (please vote)

Late at night, there are still many people who have not fallen asleep.

In the main house of No. 22 Hui'an Lane, the thick curtains were drawn and there were no lights on. Ye Zhen stood in front of the window, occasionally lifting a corner of the curtains and looking outside.

Jin Magao was currently in the kitchen sending messages with headphones on.

With the ticking sound of the electric key, a telegram flew away into the distance.

After sending the telegram, he stuffed the radio into the rectangular bellows under the stove. After checking carefully to make sure there was nothing wrong, he returned to the main room with an oil lamp.

Seeing Ye Zhen's uncomfortable look, he sneered:
"There's no need to be so cautious. As the Chinese saying goes, the most dangerous place is also the safest place. The city is in a state of panic right now. They would never have thought that we were lurking right under their noses."

"Is this why you don't want to leave the city even though you have a special pass?" Ye Zhen shook his head.
"The Chinese agents have probably already figured out our appearance. It's only a matter of time before we're exposed. The wisest option is to withdraw now."

"I have just sent out the coordinates of the city's ammunition depot, airport and other important facilities. Besides, even if the Empire sends bombers to bomb, there must be support personnel on the ground. I will not evacuate until the mission is completed." Jin Magao shook his head and continued:
"We have no means of transportation. Even if we escape the city, we can't get far. We will also expose the undercover agent who provided us with the special communication pass. The head of the agency specifically instructed us to make good use of these pawns. We must also protect their safety."

"It seems that Major Jin has made outstanding achievements in Wuhan this year. He has planted so many pawns. There is even an undercover agent in the China Secret Service Office. If it weren't for this person, we would probably be in great danger today."

"Please call me by my Japanese name, Sasaki Yuto." Although Nosada spoke in a flattering tone, it sounded particularly irritating to Jin Magao's ears, because he was a Korean Japanese and was often ostracized by pure Japanese.

Ye Zhen didn't know how his words stimulated Jin Ma's highly sensitive nerves. Facing the other party's fierce eyes, the smile on his face froze instantly. He nodded angrily and sneered again:
"Sasaki-kun, don't forget that I am a lieutenant colonel."

Before he could finish his words, Jin Magao interrupted him: "Lieutenant Colonel Ye Zhen, don't forget that you are here to assist me in my work, not to give orders.
I just recalled the details of our encounter and contact. If I am right, those annoying tracking and surveillance should have followed you. Perhaps you were exposed to the enemy as soon as you entered the city."

"How is this possible?" Ye Zhen shook his head in disbelief.

"I started from Manchuria, disguised as a refugee along the way, and didn't interact with anyone, so there was no way I would be exposed."

"During the war, it is common for us to be among the enemy and the enemy to be among us. Perhaps your information was leaked from Manchuria!"

"Are you saying that the Chinese have infiltrated our intelligence agencies in Manchuria?" Ye Zhen's face turned stern and he looked incredulous.

"I have already sent a joint investigation notice to Manchuria." Jin Magao showed an unfathomable smile, "For those of us in this line of work, we can only survive long if we remain suspicious of everyone at all times."

Ye Zhen nodded after thinking about it: "Thank you for your hard work, Sasaki-kun. Although I have prepared for the worst, the work here is still different from that in Manchuria."

Jin Magao laughed sarcastically, "I heard that Ye Zhenjun brought all his family members from his country to Manchuria?
He also used his power to start a business. I guess he will become a millionaire in no time.
In order for Ye Zhenjun to spend a comfortable old age, you must survive well. "

Ye Zhen sighed and looked at Jin Magao deeply:
"The real situation in the country is not as reported in the newspapers. As the war becomes more urgent, people's lives are getting worse."

"That's enough." Jin Magao interrupted him with a frown:
"The Empire's strategy is to fight to support the war. China can afford to be hurt, but the Empire cannot afford to delay, so we must quickly occupy China. As agents, we should play a greater role in the difficult moments of the war."

After saying this, Jin Magao pulled out his pistol and loaded it with bullets. He also took out two grenades and placed them within reach. Then he wrapped himself in the quilt and said:

"Go to sleep. We have work to do tomorrow."

In the middle of the night when the wind was howling coldly, several speeding cars suddenly stopped at an intersection not far away from Huimin Street.

One by one, the plainclothes officers quickly crouched across the road, stuck to the wall, and surrounded the courtyard of No. 22 Hui'an Lane.

Just as I reached the alley entrance, three dark figures came out from the other corner of the lane, and two of them walked up with a trembling patrolman.

"Chief, this person is Dong Yonggui, the patrolman in charge of public security nearby."

Zhang Yi walked over to the trembling man, patted him on the shoulder, and said kindly:

"Don't be nervous. We are from the Secret Service. We just want to get some information from you. We won't make things difficult for you."

Dong Yonggui stared with a look of horror. He was pulled out of his bed and had no idea who had kidnapped him. How could he not be afraid?

When he heard it was the Secret Service, he became even more nervous.

Since this place became the headquarters of the Secret Service, people coming in and out every day are all extremely vicious and burly plainclothes police officers.

These people arrest and beat people all day long, and escort all kinds of people in and out. Everyone who passes by here looks at them sideways. Even if he is a patrolman, he would rather take a detour than pass by here during his daily patrol.

Dong Yonggui was thinking in his heart, you have arrested so many people, why didn’t you catch a traitor or a spy? He hasn’t made any remarks recently, and I don’t know how he provoked these plague gods.

The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, suppressing his emotions, and asked carefully and flatteringly:
"Sir, if you ask, I will tell you everything I know."

"Who lives at No. 22 Hui'an Lane?"

"No. 22? An old lady lives there. Her son died in the Battle of Shanghai.
Oh, by the way, about a year ago, a cousin from Hunan came to live with him and took care of her. We verified his identity and there was no problem. "

"Really?" Zhang Yi stared at him sharply. "What's his name and what does he do for a living?"

"Wang Guolin, he is over 40 years old, an old bachelor, illiterate, and sells needles and thread every day. Is there something wrong with him?"

Zhang Yi did not answer his question, staring at the dark alley and continued to ask:
"Is there anyone who keeps a dog around here?"

"No, who would raise animals when they can't even get enough food to eat?" Dong Yonggui shook his head in confusion.

"Well then," Zhang Yi looked at him, "You should have seen the notice on the investigation of the Japanese spy Jin Magao, right? My people will be dressed as patrolmen in a while, and you have to cooperate with them."

"Jin Ma Gao? Did the officer misunderstand? I've seen the portraits, they are not the same person at all. Besides..."

"What else can I say? If you don't cooperate with our actions and treat us as accomplices of spies, Japanese spies will be lurking under your noses. Does this count as dereliction of duty?"

Facing Zhang Yi's sharp eyes, Dong Yonggui shuddered. As soon as their eyes met, he naturally knew what the captivating light in this man's eyes meant.

That was murderous intent, not just in his eyes, but an aura emanating from his entire body that made people subconsciously afraid to refute.

"Yes." Dong Yonggui sighed resignedly, thinking that if he was unlucky today, he might lose his life here.

Seeing him nod, Zhang Yi waved his hand expressionlessly and said, "According to the plan."

"bang bang bang"

The sudden sound of knocking on the door made Ye Zhen, who was dozing on the chair, tremble all over. He stood up in horror, loaded the pistol, and stared at the door vigilantly behind the window, not daring to breathe.

Jin Magao, who was sleeping in bed with his clothes on, was not at all panicked. He got up calmly, walked to the bedroom door with a pistol in hand, and put his ear to the door to listen.

There was a chaotic and hurried sound of footsteps outside, banging on the door, shouting, and children crying. "Police, open the door!"

"There are quite a few people outside." Jin Magao looked at Ye Zhen and said vigilantly:
"If it's just a police interrogation, I can handle it with my identity, but I'm afraid this is a disguised operation by the Secret Service."

"Didn't you say it's safe here? Has your undercover work in the Secret Service been exposed?"

“No, even if he is exposed and arrested, he won’t know my identity, let alone where I live.” Jin Magao said confidently, listening to the increasingly rapid knocks on the door, a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"You go hide in the well first. If I can't handle it, be ready to break out immediately."

As he said this, Jin Magao ruffled his hair deliberately, unbuttoned a few of his clothes, and walked out while asking:

"Who?"

"Wang Guolin? I'm Dong Yonggui. If you don't open the door, we'll break it in."

"Here I come." Hearing the familiar voice, Jin Magao breathed a sigh of relief, put the pistol behind his waist, thought for a moment, pulled out the dagger from his trouser leg, held it in his sleeve, and then walked towards the door.

Then, just as he reached the door, there was a "bang" and the door was kicked open roughly, and several flashlights shone on his face at the same time.

Jin Magao stretched out his hand to block the glaring light, and saw that Dong Yonggui was still standing there, while other men in patrol uniforms had pounced on him like wolves and tigers.

He immediately realized that he had been tricked, but without showing any fear, he smiled cruelly, his sharp eyes like a poisonous snake looking at its prey.

Without saying a word, Jin Ma Gao drew his dagger, roared, and charged through the narrow doorway.

The first plainclothes officer who was hit was caught off guard. He felt a surge of hostility coming towards him. The next moment, a flash of cold light appeared, followed by the sound of a sharp blade piercing his flesh and bones...

Then, there was a spurt of blood, covering the entire porch, and scarlet flowers were everywhere.

After a successful attack, Jin Magao did not stop and pounced on another person again.

The sharp dagger directly pierced into the chest of another person. The plainclothes officer disguised as a patrolman was about to pull the trigger, but was afraid of hurting his own people. After a slight hesitation, the dagger had already reached his chest.

He tried to dodge, but was still stabbed in the wrist by the dagger. Blood spurted out and the gun in his hand fell to the ground along with the blood. Amid his screams, another knife slashed his neck and the plainclothes officer fell down unwillingly.

At this moment, a gunshot was heard, and a plainclothes officer rushed up and shot Jin Magao in the stomach, then kicked him out.

Then Jin Magao, who was shot, seemed to be unaware of it. As he rolled on the ground, he had a pistol in his hand and shot at the plainclothes police continuously.

"Bang, bang, bang" bullets whizzed past, and the two plainclothes officers fell down again with screams.

Jin Magao, who was shot several times, stood up tremblingly, holding the bloody hole. He raised his pistol and shot while retreating, roaring like a wild beast:

"Chinese, come here if you are not afraid of death."

Just as he finished speaking, a figure fell from the sky on the eaves and threw him to the ground.

It was Monkey. He grabbed Jin Magao's wrist, removed his pistol and threw it away, then locked his neck tightly.

Jin Magao naturally would not surrender. He used his hands and feet together, tearing the monkey apart with his hands while kicking him at the waist with his feet.

At this time, the plainclothes officers nearby swarmed over, some pressing his hands, some pressing his feet, and some with red eyes smashed his head with their fists madly.

Jin Magao struggled for a few times, and his consciousness was swallowed by darkness.

"Is this dog still alive?"

Qian Xiaosan wiped the blood off his fist, smiled cruelly, and tried Jin Magao's breath. Seeing that he was dying but still breathing, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief...

After groping around the collar of his shirt, when she reached his crotch, she stopped suspiciously, gave an obscene smile, and directly pulled Jin Magao's pants off.

There was a thin booklet inside the cotton underwear. Qian Xiaosan realized it was the code book. He smiled with surprise and quickly put it in his arms.

After searching for a long time and finding nothing, I finally pried open his mouth.

Shine the flashlight, he sneered, took out a pair of pliers from his pocket, aimed at a big tooth and pulled it hard. With a "click", Jin Magao screamed and twitched, he pulled the tooth out, then pulled off his socks and stuffed them into the other's mouth, saying:
"Cuff him and take him away."

Jin Magao had no strength left in his body at this moment. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, he closed his eyes in despair.

On the other side, Ye Zhen, who came out of the cellar, jumped off a wall again. The bullet pierced his thigh and blood was gushing out, but he was unaware of it and his face was full of joy of escaping death.

He was walking through a dark alley, thinking about how to get transportation to freedom, when two dark shadows appeared from the alley entrance, pounced on him and controlled him.

"Chief, three of our brothers died, two were injured, one of whom was disabled. The injured have been sent to the hospital."

It was a high price to pay such heavy casualties in order to capture two hidden spies.

In the solemn atmosphere, the joy of having just seized the code radio station disappeared.

Zhang Yi clenched his fists tightly, cursed softly, and asked:
"Did you find anything else?"

"Yes." At this time, two plainclothes officers came up carrying a corpse on a wooden board. It was an old lady with gray hair.

Her wrists and feet were tied with ropes, leaving circles of purple bruises.

A plainclothes officer pointed at the body and said, "We found it in the abandoned well where Ye Zhen had been hiding. There were no other obvious wounds on the body. He must have died of suffocation. Judging from the temperature of the body, he must have died not long ago."

Needless to say, it must be that Ye Zhen saw that the old lady had lost her usefulness, so he did not forget to kill her to silence her when he escaped. He was simply insane.

Zhang Yi sighed, asked someone to call Dong Yonggui, took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket, and said:

"Her son died fighting for his country. She is the mother of a hero. Her funeral cannot be hastily concluded. Please buy her a good coffin."

Without waiting for Dong Yonggui's consent, Zhang Yi stuffed the money into his hand and said, "Disband."

It’s time to let these two cruel Japanese spies know what it means to live a life worse than death.
