My spy diary

Chapter 471 Eavesdropping Device (asking for monthly ticket)
The Army Hospital was crowded in the morning. He Zhiyuan and several plainclothes officers from the Operations Department entered the hospital in two cars.

A car drove straight to the main building. After the car stopped, He Zhiyuan and the plainclothes officers got out quickly, lifted a dying and bloody man on a stretcher in the back seat, and ran to the emergency room while shouting "Doctor".

Another car drove through the yard and finally stopped in a secluded area behind the main building. Several disguised agents got out of the car and entered the hospital building through several side doors, quickly blending into the crowd.

At this time, Zhang Yi brought Monkey to the door of the vice president's office and knocked gently.

"Enter."

"Vice President Zhang, are you busy?" Seeing that the vice president didn't even raise his head, Zhang Yi said politely.

Vice President Zhang looked up and saw two strangers. He asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

Zhang Yi smiled slightly, and Monkey stepped forward, took out his ID and shook it, introducing himself:
"This is Director Zhang from our Military Control Commission."

Upon hearing this, Vice President Zhang quickly stood up to greet him and said warmly, "It's Director Zhang. Look, when you come to my place, why do you need to knock on the door? Just push the door open and come in."

"Isn't this bad?"

"What's wrong with that? We are all family. In fact, I have to call you sir. Please take a seat."

As he spoke, Vice President Zhang invited Zhang Yi to sit on the sofa at the side and hurriedly poured tea for him.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi quickly said, "Don't bother me. I'm here to ask for something."

"Your command."

"We just sent a patient here. This person is very important to us. We must save him."

"Ah, what's the injury? Is it serious?"

"My throat was cut off and I couldn't speak."

"so serious?"

"So I have to ask Dean Zhang to arrange for some miraculous doctors to save the patient."

"It is my duty, and I have no choice but to do it." Vice President Zhang said, and immediately picked up the phone and dialed, "Doctor Liu? Go to the emergency room immediately. What? You have an operation soon? What operation is more important than the Military Intelligence Bureau? Postpone it immediately. This is an order."

After hanging up the phone, Vice President Zhang found a stethoscope and hung it around his neck, and said earnestly, "Human life is at stake. Let's go check it out first?"

"Alright."

After leaving the office and walking towards the emergency room, Zhang Yi asked:

"Is this Doctor Liu a good doctor?"

"Don't worry, I graduated from Tokyo Imperial University, and my medical skills are impeccable."

"Is the person reliable?"

"This, this," Vice President Zhang hesitated. The explosion in the hospital warehouse had caused panic among the people, and he could not make any guarantees at this moment.

"Are there any other good doctors?"

"Yes." Vice President Zhang said, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted to a doctor who had just come out of the ward:
"Doctor Lin, come here for a moment."

Lin Xiao came out of a ward and was taking off his gloves. He hurried over and asked, "Dean, what's the matter?"

Vice President Zhang introduced: "This is Director Zhang of the Military Control Commission. Director Zhang, this is Doctor Lin, a graduate of Kyoto Imperial University, with first-class medical skills."

"Thank you for the compliment, Director Zhang, Dean, what can I do for you?" Lin Xiao's expression was very indifferent.

"Let's talk while we walk." Zhang Yi glanced at him, then looked away, walked towards the emergency room while explaining the situation.

I passed the guard at the door and entered the emergency room.

A man with his eyes closed and bruises all over his body, especially with blood oozing out of his throat, is sleeping on the hospital bed. The patient is wearing an oxygen mask (invented in 1887, it was successfully used to treat patients with chlorine poisoning during the First World War, causing a sensation in the medical community and beginning to be widely used). Although he is still dying, it can be seen that his breathing is much stronger than when he was first brought in.

Doctor Liu had arrived earlier and said, "The patient has a high fever and severe inflammation."

Zhang Yi asked: "What do we need to do?"

"It would be best to add penicillin to the medicine, but the medicine in the warehouse is destroyed and now the hospital..."

Zhang Yi interrupted him: "I'll take care of the penicillin problem. With this thing, can you guarantee that he can speak?"

Doctor Liu frowned, and Lin Xiao said, "No one can guarantee this. We need to check to know."

As he said that, he immediately walked over to check the patient's injuries. The moment he touched the patient, the patient struggled to open his eyelids. He glanced at Lin Xiao, then at Zhang Yi, with a trace of fear and hatred in his eyes. He whimpered a few times and closed his eyes again.

"Hey, he's awake." Lin Xiao said as he checked his wounds, "Although his throat is broken and he can't speak, he seems to be conscious, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

"That's good." Zhang Yi seemed relieved. He looked at the patient's face and said to him, "You are lucky. Although you can't speak, you should know everything in your heart. Think about it carefully. If you want to live, you must confess."

As he said this, he looked at Doctor Liu and Lin Xiao: "Then I'll leave it to you two."

"You're welcome. This is what we do. Don't worry."

"Well, Vice President Zhang, let's go."

"Okay, Director Zhang, who is this person? Is it worth using penicillin?" Vice President Zhang asked with a sigh. After all, this thing is more valuable than gold.

Zhang Yi walked straight out without looking back and said, "It's very important. As long as the Japanese spy can speak, everything will be worth it."

No one noticed that Lin Xiao behind him was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

Coming out of the ward, Zhang Yi nodded calmly to several plainclothes officers from the Operations Department who were disguised as patients' family members. They understood and immediately walked towards Lin Xiao's office. Their duty was to install eavesdropping devices.

Another group of plainclothes officers had already rushed to Lin Xiao's house.

"Director Zhang, would you like to come to my office and sit down?" At this time, Vice President Zhang invited him enthusiastically again.

Zhang Yi glanced at him and asked, "Anything else?"

Vice President Zhang smiled mysteriously, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself. Zhang Yi found it a little funny, so he winked at Monkey, asking him to stare at Lin Xiao, and then followed the Vice President to his office again.

After the door was closed, the vice president served hot tea, but he didn't rush to talk about the matter. Instead, he first praised Director Dai's Military Intelligence Bureau, and then praised Zhang Yixiao, and then talked about himself in a roundabout way:

"Anyway, the dean has been dismissed because of the bombing. I wonder if the hospital has any say in this matter? Although I am currently in charge of business as the vice dean, it is not legitimate after all. If it is convenient, can Director Zhang help me put in a good word in front of Director Dai and introduce me to him?"

Zhang Yi naturally understood what Vice President Zhang meant. The president had been dismissed from his post because of the bombing. Even if he didn't go to jail, his career would be over. It seemed that this Vice President Zhang was still unwilling to give up even at his old age.

However, the Army Hospital is different from other public and private hospitals. It is jointly managed by the Military Medical Department of the Army Administration under the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Executive Yuan and the Military Medical Department under the Joint Services Headquarters. The person who has the most say in the position of director should be Chen Tumu, the Minister of Military Affairs. Going to Dai Chunfeng is clearly a desperate move.

"You didn't look for Minister Chen?"

"Director Zhang, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I've been to Minister Chen's house, and the gift was thrown out. There's nothing I can do about it. Mr. Dai is a favorite of the chairman, if he can say a word for me..."

"Oh, okay. Chief Dai is busy solving a case these days. When he is free, I can give you a heads up. Of course, I am just giving you some advice. As for other matters, I am sorry that I can't help you."

It sounded a bit perfunctory, but Deputy Dean Zhang was extremely happy to hear it. His eyes were smiling into a thin line, and a halo appeared on his bald head. He leaned his butt closer to Zhang Yi, and whispered mysteriously, "Don't worry, Director Zhang will definitely benefit from it when the time comes."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

After leaving the vice president's office, Zhang Yi walked out of the main building, crossed the backyard, and got into a car parked in a remote place. He Zhiyuan was sitting in the back seat at the moment.

"Do you think he'll take the bait?"

"I don't know, it's a good idea to kill two birds with one stone and lure the snake out of its hole. At least the bug has been installed." After deciding to monitor and track Lin Xiao, He Zhiyuan and Zhang Yi conspired and finally came up with a plan to "kill two birds with one stone and lure the snake out of its hole."

In order to complete this plan, we must first perform a magic trick.

So, Secretary Lin, who was beaten to pieces in the interrogation room, became a so-called Japanese spy.

The subsequent steps were completed smoothly, and everything eventually turned into the scene that Lin Xiao had just seen in the emergency room.

But will Lin Xiao be fooled?
Lin Xiao left the emergency room expressionlessly and did not go with Dr. Liu to report to the vice president, saying that he wanted to check the information to see if there were any better medical options. Dr. Liu disagreed.

After he left, Lin Xiao went straight back to the office.

After closing the door, his expression became serious.

What happened? Could the Japanese spy be from Beichuan?
If so, once he opens his mouth, he will definitely betray Beichuan, and then... Thinking of this, Lin Xiao felt confused.

There were several medical documents spread out on the table, but he had no intention of reading them. He walked around the office a few times in a distracted manner, and finally looked at the telephone on the table.

In the chandelier that was always on right above the office, a small bug lay quietly. The thin wire on it was entangled with the light cord, passing through the ceiling and leading to another room.

In the room, two plainclothes officers wearing headphones were sitting in front of the monitoring equipment, listening attentively.

At this moment, a plainclothes officer was listening to Lin Xiao's movements. He tightly grasped his earphones and silently said fiercely in his heart: "Call, call."

Then, Lin Xiao really picked up the phone.

Of course, he did not hear the plainclothes officer's inner call, but he felt that this matter must be reported to Beichuan no matter what.

But the moment he picked up the phone, he put it down again.

He poured himself a cup of boiling water and pondered over it alone.

At this time, hurried footsteps were heard, and a female nurse knocked on the door and came in: "Doctor Lin, the penicillin has arrived. Shall I inject it now? What is the ratio?"

"Where's Doctor Liu?"

"I went for surgery."

"Oh." Lin Xiao's attitude made the nurse a little confused, so she made small talk: "As for medical skills, it depends on you, Doctor Lin."

Lin Xiao picked up the water cup and took a sip, staring at her and said, "Gossiping behind her back is not a good habit."

The nurse smiled bitterly.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Let's mix it at a 25% ratio first, inject it into the patient first, and observe carefully. We'll discuss the details after Dr. Liu is done."

"okay, got it."

After the nurse left, Lin Xiao thought for a moment, packed up the medical materials on the table, then left the office and went straight to the vice president's office, saying that he wanted to go to the city library.

Seeing that he was devoted to the patients, the vice president happily approved his request for leave, then solemnly pointed in the direction of the ward and said, "This patient must be saved."

Lin Xiao nodded. The place he really wanted to go now was to put an end to this patient. Of course, these were all the words hidden in his heart.

After making sure he was out of the sight of the KMT plainclothes officers and his acquaintances, he hailed a rickshaw and headed straight for the city library.

When he arrived at the place, he watched the rickshaw driver leave, paused for a while, looked around, and then slipped into a public telephone booth nearby.

After finishing the call, he left the phone booth, walked some distance, and then hailed a rickshaw, his destination being the courtyard where Beichuan was.

When he got here, he knocked on the door of the courtyard in accordance with the agreed rules, using the rhythm of "three, one, three".

After a while, Beichuan opened the door.

After listening to Lin Xiao's detailed report on the patient's condition, Beichuan's face became solemn. After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Is anyone following you?"

Lin Xiao shook his head: "No, I changed cars twice and observed it carefully. There is no tail."

Beichuan felt relieved. He drank a sip of tea and thought: "He is definitely not my man. Whose family could he be from?"

"Could it be someone from other intelligence teams?"

"It's unlikely. If there is such an arrangement, there is no reason not to tell me." Beichuan denied his speculation.

"Could it be someone from the Special Higher Police?"

"That's even more impossible. The nails they planted have long been pulled out. Now only people from our Mei Agency can still breathe a few breaths of free air in the mountain city. Humph, Special High Section?" Beichuan said with contempt.

Lin Xiao was about to say something else when Beichuan interrupted him: "Let me think about it."

He hesitated for a long time before speaking, as if he was asking Lin Xiao, but also as if he was talking to himself:

"Is it possible that this is a trap? The Military Control Commission has been keeping an eye on you for a long time, and now they are following you and have found my residence."

"How is this possible? I haven't been exposed at all. Unless..." Lin Xiao was incredulous, "Unless Li Aiguo betrayed me."

"There's no time to talk to him now." Beichuan interrupted him, "No matter if this is a trap or not, you must go back immediately. From now on, you are not allowed to act without my order."

"Go back, go back?" Lin Xiao looked surprised. Since his suspicion had been exposed, shouldn't he evacuate or move from public activities to underground? Why should he go back?

"Yes, I'll go back right away."

"But what if this is a trap? Maybe the Military Control Commission has already set their sights on me. If I go back, wouldn't that be walking into a trap?" Lin Xiao objected.

"You also said it was just a precaution. Maybe all this is just our guess and you haven't been exposed."

"I, let me think about it again." Lin Xiao was a little confused.

"What are you thinking? You can still make it if you go back to the library now." Beichuan stared at him coldly and said in a serious tone: "Look at me and listen to me. There is no time to lose. Go back right now and pretend that you know nothing. As long as they can't catch me, they won't do anything to you for a while."

"What if, what if they catch me and ask me where you are?"

"You won't tell. I believe you. If you don't tell, it won't do you any good, and it won't do your son any good either. What do you think?"

These words struck Lin Xiao, and his heart twitched violently.

Beichuan struck while the iron was hot: "Lin Sang, go back and be a good doctor. I will clean up the rest for you."

"Yes," Lin Xiao answered with some difficulty. Seeing that Beichuan had closed his eyes, he could only bow timidly and turned to leave.

As soon as he left, a man dressed as a postman walked out of the room silently. He looked at Beichuan, who was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed, and asked, "Will he be obedient?"

"I think so. If it were you, would you listen to what I said?"

The man said in a serious tone: "I am not married and I don't have a son, so there is no threat. But if I am exposed, I will commit suicide immediately."

Beichuan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him: "You should leave now."

"Yes." The man nodded and climbed out of the backyard quietly.

As soon as the man left, Beichuan immediately stood up and walked into the house. He opened the wardrobe, pulled out a few pieces of clothes, and then lifted the partition under the wardrobe, revealing a gap in the tunnel.

He crawled in, pulled the partition closed, and disappeared without a trace.
