The Spy

Chapter 6 The Signal Appears
The most important thing is that he saw an extremely outstanding young talent. Wang Jiansheng himself is young and likes young people, and Xu Qingshi is an example.

In this case, Xu Qingyun's extraordinary attentiveness and sensitivity made him like him the most, and his appreciation was beyond words.

Hu Qi's cunning and disguise are superb, and his carefully designed identity is almost impossible to detect. However, Xu Qingyun observed subtle differences and concluded that Hu Qi is a Japanese agent.

Their police station has no shortage of people, but they lack good hunters. Undoubtedly, Xu Qingyun is the excellent hunter he wants. No matter how cunning the fox is, it can't escape from him.

"Thank you for your cultivation, Director."

Xu Qingyun bowed and thanked him, feeling relieved. His cousin had forced him to be the acting team leader, which was not right or proper. But after today, no one would dare to talk about it.

Wang Jiansheng looked at Xu Qingyun, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "You've been tired for a whole day and night, go back and rest early."

His tone did not conceal his concern and expectations. Outstanding young people must be well protected and not let their bodies be exhausted by cases.

"Director, I'll send Qingyun back."

Xu Qingshi laughed heartily, his face full of joy that he couldn't hide. His brother's position as the class leader was completely secured, and he was happier than anyone else.

However, the case is still pending. The key lies in whether he can make new contributions in the future. As long as he does, he will immediately help Xu Qingyun to submit a promotion report.

No matter whether he will approve or not, just do it first.

After sending Xu Qingyun back to the dormitory, Xu Qingshi said softly: "Qingyun, you should have a good rest first. I will inform you if there is any situation."

Not only Xu Qingyun needed to rest, but everyone in his class did the same and didn't sleep all day and night.

When the case is over and rewards are given based on merit, everyone in Xu Qingyun's class will receive a reward.

"it is good."

Xu Qingyun was not being pretentious. The case was not over yet and the person who was in contact with Hu Qi might show up at any time. He had to stay alert and be prepared for any situation that might arise in the future.

Looking at his brother lying on the bed, Xu Qingshi gently closed the door and left. He gathered everyone together and sternly told them to keep it a secret and no one was allowed to go out alone.

Hu Qi and the other two were detained here first. Xu Qingshi arranged for his trusted aides to look after them personally so as not to let outsiders know about their situation.

Xu Qingshi knew very well that confidentiality was of vital importance if he wanted to achieve greater success. Once the news leaked and the Japanese spies learned that Hu Qi had been arrested, they would inevitably cut off contact. All previous efforts and clues would be interrupted, and there would be no possibility of any further progress.

"Good morning, squad leader."

Xu Qingyun pushed the door open and his simple greeting echoed in the office in the early morning. His figure looked particularly firm in the rising sun.

Everyone was busy all day and night the day before yesterday. Xu Qingyun only slept for four hours yesterday. He got up and looked over the confessions of Hu Qi and the other two to confirm every detail before going to bed at night to avoid confusing right and wrong.

His subordinates were similar to him. Many of them stayed up all day due to excitement, so they went to bed early and had a good sleep at night.

"Good morning."

Xu Qingyun responded with a smile, and Zuo Jinfang came running over quickly, holding a paper bag filled with mouth-watering fried cakes.

"Brother Qingyun, the captain sent us breakfast, and we just finished eating."

Zuo Jinfang had to keep an eye on everyone. In fact, he had the worst rest and was half asleep and half awake. No matter who got up, he would wake up and stare at them.

He didn't dare to be careless about the task that Xu Qingshi had personally assigned to him.

"Thank you."

Xu Qingyun took the fried cake and knew it was the Liu family fried cake from Erduoyan Hutong just by smelling it. The characteristics of Liu family fried cake are yellow, soft, chewy and fragrant. There are three golden fried cakes in the paper bag. They have lost their hotness when they were just out of the pot, but they still exude pleasant warmth. When you open the paper bag, the tempting aroma will hit your nose, making you fascinated.

The fried cakes were not small, and three pieces were enough to fill you up. Zuo Jinfang made tea for Xu Qingyun. The clear tea was like the color of a mountain spring. Sipping it gently, it had a bitter taste with a hint of sweetness, which just neutralized the greasiness brought by the fried cakes.

"Qingyun, you are here."

Just after finishing one and a half pieces, Xu Qingshi entered their office and noticed the newspaper in his hand. Xu Qingyun stuffed half of the fried cake in his hand directly into his mouth and swallowed it.

"Brother, is there something wrong?"

Xu Qingyun held the cup of water and asked while drinking, while Xu Qingshi came to Xu Qingyun's desk with a newspaper.

"Yes, they sent a signal."

Xu Qingshi was assisting in the investigation. Before the first rays of sunlight in the early morning shone across the earth, he would send his confidants out to buy newspapers. He would buy a copy of any newspaper available on the streets of Tianjin.

He had a hunch that the Japanese spy would contact Hu Qi in the next few days, and sure enough, today they saw the missing person notice issued by the other party in the newspaper.

"Our newspaper?"

Xu Qingyun noticed the heading of the newspaper. It was the Tianfeng Daily, a local newspaper founded by a well-known journalist in Tianjin. It was quite famous.

"Yes, do you want to check the newspaper?"

Xu Qingshi immediately understood his brother's intention. Xu Qingyun shook his head slightly: "Let's connect first."

The other party sent a signal that it was time to assign a task to Hu Qi. It would be most appropriate to arrest the person on the spot, so there would be no need to conduct other investigations.

The meeting place is located in the prosperous Nanshi Teahouse. Since the decline of Beidaguan, Nanshi has become increasingly prosperous due to its proximity to the concession, and has earned the nickname of "no man's land". It is a place where all kinds of people gather together, and it is the place where intelligence is exchanged and events take place.

Nanshi is a gathering place for gambling houses, opium dens, and brothels. To arrange a capture operation there, Xu Qingyun's men alone are not enough. Xu Qingshi will send two more squads of elites to help capture people to ensure that everything goes well.

However, the main force in the arrest is still Xu Qingyun.

This time he will do his best to help his brother achieve great military exploits. He is already the captain, and the next promotion will be deputy director. As for director, he has no chance at all.

In the complex power vortex of Tianjin Police Department, if you want to become the director, you need not only ability but also connections, which are the most important.

Zuo Jinfang and others did not dare to approach rashly, but their eyes were burning.

The contact person showed up, which meant they were going to arrest someone again, and this time it was a more important Japanese spy.

They may not be able to do other things, but they have no fear of arresting people. After the Tianjin Police Department was reorganized, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled were eliminated, and most of those who remained have been trained and have strong fighting capacity.

"I'm going to go see Hu Qi."

Xu Qingyun came to the cell and saw Hu Qi lying on the bed. He was seriously injured from the torture yesterday. His kneecap was broken and he couldn't walk.

Xu Qingyun did not consider whether Hu Qi would be left disabled or not. Hu Qi's ultimate value was to catch the person who had contact with him, and then he would be executed.

He would not keep such a Japanese spy, not to mention that Hu Qi's hands were stained with the blood of dozens of compatriots. His crimes were extremely heinous and ten deaths would not be enough to atone for his sins.

"Hu Qi, are you sure you have never met the person you are about to meet?"

Hu Qi was awake. After he confessed yesterday, he was given medicine. He would not be informed of the execution. At least he was given some hope of survival so that he could cooperate better.
