My spy diary

Chapter 407: Silencing (asking for monthly ticket)

In the military technology room, a clerk who looked like a secretary walked to Su Wanqing's office with a document.

He glanced around vigilantly, took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket, and was about to put it into the crack of the door when he suddenly heard footsteps next door. He immediately put away the note and pretended to be hesitant.

The next moment, a beautifully dressed female clerk came out of the office next door. She was holding a small mirror and carefully applying lipstick. She glanced at the wandering male secretary and joked with a smile:

"Oh my, Secretary Liu is here to show his courtesy to Xiao Su again."

Secretary Liu smiled awkwardly and took out two movie tickets from his pocket: "I want to ask Miss Su out to see a movie, but I'm afraid she'll reject me, haha."

He then asked the other party, "Secretary Sun, you dressed yourself up so beautifully, who are you showing it to?"

"Of course it's the person I like."

"Who is it? It can't be me, how about going to the movies with me tonight?"

"You?" Secretary Sun rolled her eyes, not wanting to pay attention to him, and walked away with her waist twisted.

After she left, Secretary Liu also left as if nothing had happened.

But he did not return to the office, but also walked out of the military technology room.

As I walked out of the door, I happened to catch a glimpse of Lin Hetang hurriedly stopping a rickshaw. From the looks of him, it seemed that he was following the car in front.

Secretary Liu realized that he was in big trouble. He was an underground member of the Red Party who was lurking in the military technology room under the guise of a member of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.

This morning he suddenly received an order from his superiors, asking him to urgently notify Su Wanqing to evacuate. Only then did he realize that Su Wanqing was his comrade.

He had already made preparations and came to the office very early today, but he did not expect Chi Buzhou to arrive earlier than him.

After the technical department was reorganized, the Commissioner's Office was established and Chi Buzhou was appointed as the chief commissioner. Without Wei Daming's exclusion, he was very proud of his new position and his work enthusiasm was unprecedentedly high. He pulled his secretary to arrange work early in the morning, completely unaware of how tormented Secretary Liu was inside.

I finally got rid of Commissioner Chi, but I didn't expect the same thing to happen again.

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of Lin Hetang's sneaky look and frowned. If this person was following Su Wanqing, the consequences would be unimaginable, whether he discovered Su Wanqing's identity or discovered the underground contact station.

Thinking of this, he immediately walked quickly for a distance, then stopped a rickshaw and followed.

At this moment, on the rickshaw, Su Wanqing did not notice that there was a pair of mysterious eyes staring at her.

The rickshaw ran for a mile or two and entered a gradually prosperous commercial street. Su Wanqing got off the rickshaw, paid the fare, glanced around casually, and entered a bookstore called "Wild Grass".

Then, a capable man who looked like a waiter walked out, glanced at the place nonchalantly, and then walked back in.

All of this was seen clearly by the pair of eyes behind him.

The owner of these eyes, Lin Hetang, thought for a while with a gloomy and uncertain expression, then also walked into the bookstore.

The clerk at the counter who had just peeked out was now cleaning the dust with a feather blanket. He smiled when he saw him and continued to work.

Lin Hetang nodded and started strolling around casually.

He took out a book and pretended to browse it. His eyes swept over several young men and women who looked like students in the bookstore, and then fell on a place with a door curtain at the back of the bookstore.

He watched Su Wanqing come in. It was impossible for her to disappear from the face of the earth. It was very likely that she was in the room with the curtain at this moment.

What? She must be reporting to her superiors.

Needless to say, this must be a communication station of the underground party, and Su Wanqing's hidden identity is also clear, she is also a member of the Red Party.

For a moment, Lin Hetang felt both annoyed by his slowness and proud of his sudden inspiration. In an instant, the haze that shrouded his heart disappeared.

Chen Zhengyuan's death made him depressed, lonely, angry, desperate, and even a little crazy, but it is not as easy as it sounds to abandon your family and children and just walk away.

It is said that when there is nothing to do, one should be kind-hearted, and when there is something to do, one must be ruthless. If one does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.

Having made up his mind, he immediately put the book back, nodded to the clerk at the counter, and walked out of the bookstore as if nothing had happened.

I caught a glimpse of a public telephone booth not far away and immediately quickened my pace and walked over.

Entering the phone booth, he dialed a number, thought about it, and hung up.

He was a member of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, so it was natural for him to report the intelligence to the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. However, what the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics could give him was nothing more than a few words of praise. This kind of icing on the cake was just a superficial show. Only by selling the intelligence to the Military Bureau of Investigation and Statistics could he "provide timely assistance" and solve his current predicament once and for all.

He dialed the number again: "Director Wei?"

"Who are you?" It was the secretary who answered the phone.

"I'm looking for Director Wei. Tell him I'm Lin Hetang, hehe."

The secretary hesitated for a while, but still handed the phone to Wei Daming.

Wei Daming hated Lin Hetang, one of the instigators of the accusation letter, and was furious when he saw that he dared to call him. He asked bluntly, "What's the matter?"

Hearing Wei Daming's voice, Lin Hetang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"Cancel the assassination order against me."

".I don't understand what you are saying."

"Director Wei, there are some things that everyone knows. Chen Zhengyuan's death was definitely not an accident."

"Just tell me what you want to say, or I'll hang up."

"Don't be a Red Party member. I found clues about the Red Party. It was the Red Party that instigated the lawsuit against you. I was just deceived by the slander."

"Red Party?"

"Yes, not one, but a whole nest."

Lin Hetang could hear a hint of excitement in Wei Daming's voice. He let out a long sigh, knowing that his strategy had worked. He spoke calmly into the microphone:

"You are killing me just to vent your hatred. Although the two systems are incompatible, after all, we all work for the Party and the State Committee. We must not do things that will please our enemies and hurt our relatives. The Red Party is our common enemy.

As long as they are caught, Director Wei will be rewarded for his meritorious service. Why should he be obsessed with a small person like me? How is it? Is this a good deal?"

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, to show my sincerity, I can first say a person's name. Perhaps Director Wei will not be surprised at all. She is--"

Before he finished speaking, a cold wind suddenly blew outside the phone booth and the door was opened. Lin Hetang turned around suddenly and saw his colleague Secretary Liu walked in with a gloomy face. While pulling the microphone from his hand, he quickly stretched out his left arm, strangled his neck from behind, and covered his mouth.

Then he took out a pen from his pocket, picked up the pen holder with his mouth, and stabbed it into his neck.

Lin Hetang struggled desperately. As the pen penetrated deeper and deeper, he whimpered a few times. His struggling hands and feet slowly stopped and drooped limply.

Secretary Liu slowly let him go, and Lin Hetang's body fell to the ground with a bang.

After dealing with Lin Hetang, Secretary Liu walked over, hung up the phone, wrapped his face tightly with a thick scarf, and left the phone booth.

He lowered his head slightly as he walked. After reaching a quieter street, he dodged into another phone booth and dialed a number: "Lao Wang, it's me. My wife is sick. Can you come to see her?"

Wei Daming on the other end of the phone seemed to hear the name about to come out of Lin Hetang's lips, but the call was hung up.

His face became serious, and he immediately said to his secretary, "Find out the address of that phone number right away."

While giving the order, he dialed another number: "Mr. Dai, it's me. I have a major case to report."

After receiving the call, Zhang Yi hurried to Dai Chunfeng's office and saw him sitting on the sofa with a serious face, with Mao Qiwu and Wei Daming standing beside him.

"Commander, Kotohime, also known as Ishihara Ryoko, has betrayed her superior, Ono Jiro, who goes by the alias Kang Desheng. He is a reporter for the Xinmin Daily. My people have already gone to arrest him."

"Kang Desheng? Why does this name sound so familiar?" Dai Chunfeng frowned when he heard this.

Mao Qiwu looked surprised, opened his mouth and said: "He participated in the interview today, I didn't expect that he was a Japanese spy, this..."

"What the hell are you doing? You didn't even know someone was lurking around you." Dai Chunfeng scolded him harshly, then turned to ask Zhang Yi:

"Do you know that Su Wanqing is a member of the Red Party?"

"Red Party? No way? I just dealt with Chen Zhengyuan. I was afraid of arousing the suspicion of the Central Bureau of Investigation, so I planned to wait a few days before taking action against her." Zhang Yi looked surprised.

"Hmph, by the time you make a move, the flowers will be cold." Dai Chunfeng snorted again.

"What's going on?" Zhang Yi looked at Mao Qiwu, then at Wei Daming.

Wei Daming's face twitched, and he looked annoyed. He said in a deep voice, "Lin Hetang called just now and said that he found clues about the Red Party, but then the call was disconnected."

"The phone is disconnected?"

"Yes, by the time I reported to Director Mao and found the phone booth, he was already dead."

Mao Qiwu lowered his eyes and said, "When the people from the inspection office went to the military technology room, they found that Su Wanqing was not at her post. They asked the guards, and they said that after she went out, Lin Hetang followed her out. What's even more strange is that a secretary named Lin Dunian followed Lin Hetang again. Now one of them is dead, and the other two have disappeared."

"So Lin Hetang discovered Su Wanqing's identity as a member of the Red Party while following her? What did she do? Make a contact? And then the secretary named Lin Dunian was afraid that his accomplice's identity would be exposed, so he killed her to silence her?"

"That's pretty much it."

"Since it's a meeting place, as long as we find the rickshaw that took them, we can find out where Su Wanqing went and follow the clues to find the underground party's contact station."

"We've found a bookstore, but the owner and the clerk have disappeared. We've ordered people to issue a wanted warrant based on the household registration and portrait." Mao Qiwu looked discouraged.

Zhang Yi gave a bitter smile: "The Red Party is really omnipresent. If they find a corner to hide, it will be hard to find them in a mountain city with millions of people."

In fact, he felt very happy and refreshed, as the hard work was finally over.

Mao Qiwu sighed sadly, looked at Boss Dai's expression, and said, "After all, this is not a good thing."

"Oh?" Several people looked at him in surprise.

Mao Qiwu smiled and said, "First of all, they were members of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. Now that we have discovered that they are traitors, the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics cannot escape blame.

Furthermore, this case happened in the Military Technology Room and has nothing to do with our Military Control Commission. If the old man knew about it, haha, it would be just like the Red Party case at our Telecommunications Station."

Mao and Qi stopped at five points. After all, the Zhang Weilin case was a "Waterloo" for the Military Control Commission, not a glorious thing. Dai Chunfeng was furious, and the old man regarded it as a disgrace to the two major spy organizations of the Kuomintang, just like the "Three Heroes of Longtan" case in 31.

For this, Boss Dai was severely scolded and could not raise his head in front of the chairman for a long time.

Mao Qiwu's meaning was very clear. He could use this incident to launch an attack on the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics and conduct an internal investigation of military technology. He might even be able to take over the Military Technology Room in one fell swoop.

Dai Chunfeng pondered for a moment, smiled meaningfully, and asked, "What is Xu Zengen doing recently?"

Mao Qiwu said: "Seeking an official position."

Dai Chunfeng sneered when he heard this.

The growing power of the secret service also caused Xu Zengen's political ambitions to grow rapidly, and he put forward political demands commensurate with his strength. To put it bluntly, the reason why he dared to "disobey his duty" was that he had more than 100,000 Central Bureau of Investigation agents in his hands.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Now we can be sure that Su Wanqing and Secretary Lin are Red Party members, but what about the other two?"

"I think they are accomplices. This is obviously a conspiracy." Mao Qiwu said in line with his meaning. Anyway, Lin Hetang and Chen Zhengyuan are already dead. It is not easy to say that they are Red Party members. They have to be.

"I have carefully read the information of several people. This person named Chen Zhengyuan was originally a traitor of the Red Party. Now I think that maybe he was a fake traitor who was actually hiding. After entering the Central Bureau of Investigation, he also recruited Lin Hetang, Su Wanqing and others."

If you want to add guilt, why bother?

Zhang Yi thought of the Zhang Weilin case.

Zhang Weilin was indeed instigated to defect and then transferred to the mountain city step by step, and eventually entered the telecommunications office as a radio operator.

But he was the one who instigated the other few people to defect. How could it be possible that in such a confidential place as the Telecommunications Headquarters, everyone from the director to the radio operator were Red Party members at the beginning?

The incident started when a few college students joined the Telecommunications Department in response to the war of resistance, only to later realize that it was a spy organization and immediately stopped working there.

One of them even left without saying goodbye. When Wei Daming found out, he immediately reported it to the bureau headquarters. Boss Dai sent people to capture the escaped radio operator and tortured him to death. Then he asked all the radio operators to watch the execution and threatened them that if anyone wanted to leave the Military Control Commission, this person's fate would become an example.

Originally, Boss Dai wanted to kill one to warn the rest, but he ended up making things worse. These senior intellectuals and technicians were very disgusted with this, especially the telecommunications personnel who came in with the deceased, who hated it to the core.

At this time, Zhang Weilin seized the opportunity and secretly did ideological work on several people until he persuaded them all to defect. Later, he even persuaded the radio operator to defect, and established a party group within the organization.

"Very good, you prepare detailed evidence and information immediately, and I will go to see the chairman right away." Dai Chunfeng was very proud.

Things turned out just as Boss Dai had guessed. Chang was already very annoyed that Xu Zengen could not fully implement the anti-Red campaign, and now the Red Party case broke out in the Central Bureau of Investigation.

Chang was furious and, contrary to usual practice, promoted two new deputy directors within the Central Bureau of Investigation to be on equal footing with "Deputy Director Xu" in order to disperse Xu Zengen's power and achieve the goal of divide and rule.

At this point, Xu Zengen's position had been greatly shaken and his power had been greatly weakened.

But as the saying goes, it's better to kill him when he's ill. After Boss Dai got the "Imperial Sword", he immediately launched an investigation into the military technology room, and this task once again fell on Zhang Yi.
