My spy diary

Chapter 397 I'm waiting! (Seeking monthly ticket)
Time passed in the afternoon.

Although he took over as deputy director of the Operations Department, his work at the Intelligence Department was not over yet.

The most important thing now is to find out the mastermind behind the "counter-espionage plan".

Zhang Yi called a short meeting of all the people in the Intelligence Department. After arranging the subsequent investigation and division of labor for each group, he dismissed everyone and left Monkey, Qian Xiaosan, team leader Zhao Dacheng, the chief of the Military Control Commission's technical department, and the old forensic doctor and other key persons in charge to summarize the information.

The informant who was killed in the inspection room was named Yu Ze. He was born in the Pao Brothers, worked as a casino guard, and secretly lent money at high interest rates. He was 31 years old this year. Because of his violent tendencies, his wife ran away with the children, and he rented an apartment not far from the casino.

He was watching over the casino on the night of the incident. Multiple witnesses confirmed that he left after receiving a call at 9 o'clock.

After leaving, he took a rickshaw to a river a few miles away, where the crime occurred, and was subsequently killed there.

The old forensic doctor asked his apprentice to take out the photos of the body and the scene, then he limped to the blackboard, holding his waist, and drew the outline of a human body with chalk, introducing it to everyone:

"Yu Ze had only one fatal wound on his body, which was on his chest. The attack came from the front, and he was stabbed in the heart by a knife or some sharp object."

Zhang Yi seemed to be thinking: "Killed with one blow? What a master."

The old forensic doctor nodded and said, "Yes, whether in terms of accuracy or psychological quality, the murderer is a calm, decisive master who is well versed in the structure of the human body.

And generally speaking, people who are attacked head-on will instinctively resist, even women and children.

During the fight, the victim's arms will always have some scars caused by resistance.

Yu Ze is a strong man with a violent tendency, and it is impossible for him to be someone who will just sit there and wait for death.

There were no marks of resistance on his palms and forearms, and the knife stabbed deep and straight into his chest, leaving him no chance to dodge.

"He was controlled by someone?" Team leader Zhao Dacheng guessed.

"No. There were no bruises, scratches or signs of being tied up on his wrists, ankles or body. I think there is only one possibility." The forensic doctor looked at Zhang Yi, "He knew the murderer. Not only did he know him, but he didn't expect him to be the murderer - he was stabbed to death from the front by an acquaintance, even a friend, when he was completely defenseless."

Zhang Yi and the others were all shocked. If it was really as the forensic doctor said, then the murderer was most likely someone from the casino, the Pao Brothers organization, or the inspection office. If it was the latter, then it would be a big problem.

In addition, the information obtained by the inspection office was found in the sole of Yu Ze's shoes, and it is very likely that the murderer deliberately put the information there.

Zhang Yi thought about it, looked at everyone, and asked, "Has the handwriting on the intelligence been authenticated?"

"Well?" Everyone turned their eyes to the head of the technical department. After all, he was in charge of this area, so he had to explain it.

"It's impossible to compare the handwriting to his. It could be written by him, or it could be written by the murderer holding his hand. I have discussed this with the forensic doctor, and we tend to think that it was written by the murderer holding his hand."

"Are you sure?" Zhang Yi asked with a frown.

The technical section chief nervously pulled the forensic doctor over and said, "This is our conclusion. As for why...
We think that if Yu Ze had already obtained such important information in advance, why didn't he report it in time? This is not in line with common sense. The murderer must have written it holding his hand, in order to make us believe it. "

It seems to make some sense, but only a little. Zhang Yi curled his lips and continued to ask:

"Will the writing you hold in a dead person's hand be the same as the writing you hold in his life?"

"This... this requires professional handwriting identification experts to judge." The technical chief was speechless. He had never thought about this problem.

"Where is the rickshaw driver? Has he been found? Has he seen the suspicious figure?"

"The man was found, but he didn't see anything. Yu Ze didn't pay the driver after getting off the bus. He almost beat him up when the driver asked for the fare. The driver fled the scene in panic."

Zhang Yi was speechless. After thinking for a while, he immediately gave the order:

"We will split up and start with the people around Yu Ze, the Pao Brothers organization, the casino, and the supervisory office. We will also summon Dean Ju's secretary for questioning."

"Well, Section Chief, no, Director, should you reconsider it?" At this time, Zhao Dacheng spoke, looking at this and that, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

To avoid suspicion, the technical chief and the forensic doctor took the initiative to withdraw.

"What to consider?"

Zhao Dacheng said solemnly: "The casino, the owner of the casino is Gao Xiaowei, he is Tang Yi's adopted son. There are rumors that the real boss of the casino is Tang Yi. We want to investigate the people in the casino. Should we say hello to Director Tang?"

Tang Yi is the chief of the Shancheng City Police Department, a member of the Guo Party, and has the support of the Political Science Department, so he is trusted by Chang.

The position of chief of Shancheng Police Department is very critical, so there are naturally many contenders, but the selection of the chief is also very interesting. First it was Xu Zhongqi, then Tang Yi, Tang stepped down, then Xu again, and then Tang again. It seems that there is no third person except them.

In fact, the inside story is very simple. There are many people eyeing this position, but none of them can get it.

Because Xu was a member of the Military Control Commission, in addition to getting the support of Boss Dai, he also directly followed the route of Chang and tried his best to curry favor with Minister Kong.

Although Tang Yi was not a member of the Military Control Commission, he maintained a close but distant relationship with Dai Chunfeng. Not only did he have the support of the Political Science Department, he also followed Chang Kong's approach, and therefore was able to serve in this position again and again.

His godson Gao Xiaowei has always been arrogant and domineering relying on his father's power.

Speaking of this person, Zhang Yi remembered something related to Shen Xishan.

When Shen Xishan was first transferred to Shancheng, he was appointed captain of the police station's detective brigade.

Not long after he took office, a ridiculous incident occurred - Director Tang's mansion was robbed and the thief stole a duck down quilt and some clothes.

The thief broke into the director's house and caused a sensation in the whole city.

Tang Yi became furious and ordered Shen Xishan to solve the case within three days.

As a result, the case was solved in less than a day and all the lost items were recovered.

In accordance with regulations, Shen Xishan issued a written notice asking the owner to come and claim the lost property. As a result, no one came within a few days of the notice being sent out, so he sent another reminder notice.

Then, Director Tang’s godson Gao Xiaowei came in a rage.

He went to Shen Xishan's office and made a big fuss, scolding him for not sending someone to deliver something that was missing from the director's home, but treating him like ordinary people. It was so rude, so he asked Shen Xishan to deliver the gift personally and apologize.

Shen Xishan was young and energetic, and with Boss Dai's support, he naturally didn't fall for his tricks and turned around to scold him.

Seeing that he was unconvinced, Gao Xiaowei reached into his clothes and touched something.

Shen Xishan thought he was going to pull out a gun, so he quickly pulled out his gun and prepared to fight him.

As a result, the other party took out a business card of Director Tang and said arrogantly, "Look what this is?"
This guy was probably used to scaring people with his business cards, and thought that he could scare Shen Xishan by showing his business card. However, Shen Xishan didn't buy it at all. He snatched the business card, threw it on the ground and stomped on it a few times.

Gao Xiaowei was so angry that he overturned Shen Xishan's desk.

Shen Xishan naturally didn't tolerate him, so he punched and kicked him and kicked him out.

Gao Xiaowei told him to wait and see, so Shen Xishan had to report to Boss Dai.

Boss Dai's way of handling the matter was also very interesting. He lightly reprimanded Shen Xishan and then immediately asked him to resign. It can be seen that Boss Dai was not willing to come into conflict with Mr. Tang easily.

Zhao Dacheng's reminder was obviously well-intentioned. After all, when beating a dog, you have to look at the owner first.

so what?

For Zhang Yi, it is better to take a direct approach to some things than to seek them indirectly. How can I bow my head and serve the powerful and wealthy and make myself unhappy?

Besides, Shen Xishan beat Gao Yanei, but Tang Yi didn’t do anything to him.

Tang did send people to the detective brigade to check the accounts, but it turned out that Shen Xishan was not greedy or took advantage of anyone, so he couldn't find any evidence against him and had to give up.

If this was really done by Gao Yanei or his people, he will naturally be held responsible.

Zhang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Let's use courtesy first and then force. Say hello to Gao and ask his people to cooperate and come forward to be questioned. If he doesn't know courtesy, then we'll let him see what a soldier is." After hearing what he said, Monkey and Qian Xiaosan naturally said nothing. They rubbed their hands together, as if they would follow the director's lead.

Zhao Dacheng's expression changed, and he asked cautiously:
"Deputy, then... should I call?"

Zhang Yi didn't say anything, just stared at him.

Zhao Dacheng realized that he had said nonsense, so he immediately shut up, lowered his head, walked over and picked up the phone.

"I saw him that night. How did something happen to him later? It's impossible. How could Yu Ze die suddenly?" In the casino's office, Gao Xiaowei was smoking a cigar with a sad and solemn look on his face.

He and Yu Ze were classmates in primary school and from the same hometown. He is also 31 years old this year. However, he lives a life of luxury and looks much younger than his peers. He is handsome and has sharp features. He is a handsome man, but his face is pale and his eyes are a bit sinister.

The man in his thirties sitting opposite Gao Xiaowei was Horton, the manager of the casino, and also his confidant who had followed him for many years.

Horton is not tall and thin, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looks very smart and capable, and in fact, he is. Most of Gao Xiaowei's affairs are left to him.

"The Military Intelligence Bureau is very tight-lipped this time. I asked someone about it, but couldn't get any information. It is said that the case has been handed over to Zhang Yi, the chief of the Intelligence Section."

"Zhang Yi? I've never heard of him. Can he solve the case?"

When Gao Xiaowei mentioned the people from the Military Control Commission, a layer of gloom appeared on his face. Last time, Shen Xishan punched him so hard that his nose and eyes were swollen. He was embarrassed to go out for several days and became a joke in the circle of young masters.

He wanted to retaliate secretly, but his adoptive father persuaded him to keep quiet, saying that a little impatience will ruin a great plan. What a bullshit. Humph, when he climbs up to the high branch of Miss Kong Er and has the support of the Kong family, he will make sure this guy pay.

Manager Huo smiled and consoled him, "Brother Gao, the dead cannot be resurrected, please accept my condolences. Besides, since Yu Ze became an informant for the Supervisory Office, he has been leaking our secrets. His death will reduce a hidden danger for us."

"Nonsense, you don't understand at all!" Gao Xiaowei scolded, shaking his head and sighing, "Many people outside think that Yu Ze is my henchman, but in fact we are just friends who have grown up together.

When I was a child, my family was poor and I relied on his family for support. Others looked down on me and bullied me, but it was Yu Ze who stood up for me and protected me.

"If you become rich, don't forget me. I will take care of him when I become rich. Sigh, how many true friends can there be in this world? If I find out who killed him, I will kill him!"

Holden smiled awkwardly and changed the subject:

"Brother Gao, we don't have much opium in our warehouse. The Military Control Commission's checkpoints have been very strict recently. If you want to import goods from the occupied areas, you must have a special pass, and it must be issued by the Military Control Commission. The police station will not recognize it."

"Special pass?" Gao Xiaowei frowned slightly. "Time is so tight, where can we get it? We don't get along with the Military Control Commission. Well, let's call Miss Kong Er. As long as she asks, the Military Control Commission won't dare to refuse."

Holden looked embarrassed: "Miss Kong Er always wears men's clothes and doesn't like men at all. Instead of being attentive to her, it's better to find another way. By the way, Zhang Yi, who I just mentioned, seemed to be the head of the Military Transportation Department before, and happened to be in charge of military transportation, but I have never dealt with him."

"Zhang Yi? Why is this guy again? Does he have any special hobbies?"

"What should I say?" Horton was considering what to say when the phone rang. He walked over and answered it:

"Hello, who is this? Military Intelligence Bureau?"

After listening to a few words, he looked surprised, covered the microphone, and whispered to Gao Xiaowei:
"Speak of the devil, and he will appear. The Military Intelligence Bureau asked all those who are familiar with Yu Ze in the casino to be questioned."

"Someone I know? He's my brother, should I go over there too?" Gao Xiaowei snorted disdainfully and sneered, "How dare a section chief order me around? Tell them I'm busy. If you want to see me, make an appointment in advance."

"Really?"

"Exactly word for word."

"Yes." Horton repeated Gao Xiaowei's words. The other side was silent for a while, and then a cold voice came out:

"Who said that just now? Can he be responsible for his words and actions?"

Horton repeated it again. Gao Xiaowei was stunned for a moment, knowing that he had met a tough opponent. He sneered, took the phone and said arrogantly:

"Who am I? Listen carefully, my name is Gao Xiaowei, who are you?"

The person on the other end of the phone said directly: "So you are unwilling to cooperate with the Military Intelligence Bureau's investigation?"

"Investigate? Investigate what? If you have evidence, just come and arrest me. Humph, I'll wait."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

In the office, Zhang Yi hung up the phone with a serious face and asked:

"Did you record it?"

The monkey pressed the buzzing wire recorder next to him:

"It's all recorded."

"Preserve it well, it's evidence. Haha, first courtesy, then force, enough courtesy, now only force is needed."

Zhang Yi sneered and changed into a neat military uniform, his demeanor was completely different from before.

He buttoned up the last button on his collar and dialed the number: "Operation Department."

The door of the "Grand Casino" is closed, but the lights are on inside. Whether it is day or night, you cannot feel the passage of time here.

Although the storefront is not big, it is a different world inside. In addition to various gambling venues, there are also places for gamblers to eat, rest, and smoke opium.

At this moment, everyone around the gambling table was staring at the spinning roulette wheel or dice with nervous expressions like hungry wolves.

Those who win money are so excited that their eyes sparkle, their faces glow, their blood boils, and they want to win again and again.

Those who lost money became so anxious that their eyes turned green, their faces turned pale, and they were sweating profusely. They wished they could reach out their hands from their throats to get back the money they lost.

The onlookers seemed to be more nervous and excited than the participants, some cheered, some sighed in disappointment...

Greed, despair, and indifference take turns playing out here.

At this moment, there was a loud bang and a truck suddenly knocked the tightly closed door open. The wooden door fell to the ground and raised a cloud of dust.

The gamblers looked up in astonishment and saw dozens of fully armed plainclothes men with guns jumping out of the truck and quickly surrounding the casino.

A young officer in a major general's uniform, a general's woolen coat and white gloves came up from behind.

As soon as the thugs at the door came to their senses and tried to move, several plainclothes officers rushed over and knocked them over with the butts of their guns.

Zhang Yi led his men to Gao Xiaowei's office in the VIP lounge with an arrogant attitude.

Wherever he went, plainclothes officers with guns would control the people in every room without him having to lift a finger.

With a "bang", Monkey and Qian Xiaosan kicked open the office door, went in and picked up Gao Xiaowei and Horton who were smoking cigars.

The cigar fell to the ground. Gao Xiaowei opened his mouth in astonishment and struggled to scold:

"What do you want to do? Do you know who I am?"

"Didn't you say you were waiting for me? Here I am!" Zhang Yi looked at him coldly.

Gao Xiaowei's mouth, which had just been half open, slowly closed, and his face looked deathly pale.

"take away!"
