Espionage codename: Shen Gongbao

Chapter 35 Find him!

The next day, early in the morning.

Wang Xuesen got out of bed and saw Su Wanjia with a blanket tucked under her arm, her pert buttocks sticking out.

If a buttocks are offered to you, you'd be missing out if you didn't give them a squeeze.

He reached out and patted the door twice, then opened it with a cheerful expression.

As soon as you go out.

Wang Xuesen then feigned a preoccupied state.

"Sir, is the soy milk and fried dough sticks I bought for you alright?" Xiaomin asked, standing to the side with her hands clasped together.

"Madam said she'd make you some steamed cornbread or something."

"I'm afraid you won't be used to eating too much."

"Don't worry, there won't be any extra charges."

Fearing that Wang Xuesen might overthink things, she offered an explanation.

"Aren't you afraid your wife will be angry?" Wang Xuesen asked with a smile, his brows unfurrowing.

"Madam only said she would limit your food allowance, but she didn't say what specific arrangements she would make for you. If she doesn't agree, I'll switch back to cornbread," Xiaomin said cleverly.

"Thanks, I'm very satisfied with today's breakfast." Wang Xuesen nodded.

"I have to go."

"Ugh, there's always something to do all day long. Director Ding asked me to prepare for some chamber of commerce again. Don't bother cooking dinner for me."

After breakfast, Wang Xuesen intentionally let Xiaomin slip some "information".

Li Shiqun will find out about this sooner or later, so it's better to let it out sooner.

"Okay, sir." Xiaomin handed him his bag and escorted him to the door.

"You forgot again, call me brother."

Wang Xuesen smiled, took a few steps, then turned back and said, "Oh, by the way, keep an eye on the situation at the hospital. If no one goes to pick up your father today, remember to have your wife call my office."

"Mmm, thank you in advance... Brother." Xiao Min nodded gratefully.

……

Once in the office, Wang Xuesen continued memorizing English vocabulary.

Occasionally, I would peek through the window to see what was happening outside.

Vehicles from the Mei Agency and the military police were frequently seen coming and going outside, clearly indicating that Li Shiqun was increasing pressure and Tang Huimin's dismissal was a foregone conclusion.

The reason it hasn't exploded yet is because Tang Zengyang, this bombshell, hasn't detonated.

The real show is about to begin!

……

Three days later.

mountain city.

Holding the newspaper, Jia Jinnan, his eyes brimming with barely suppressed joy, strode into Dai Li's study.

"Boss, Tang Zengyang has been brought back and has published articles criticizing Wang Jingwei and opposing Japan in the daily newspapers. The Shanghai-based newspapers such as Da Mei Evening News and Shen Bao are now rushing to print them."

"Wang Zhaoming probably never dreamed that Tang Zengyang would be so resolute."

"As a prominent figure in the education field, Mr. Tang's raising of the anti-Japanese banner was a heavy blow to those traitors and those with ulterior motives in the Wang Jingwei regime."

As soon as Jia Jinnan entered the door, he announced the good news.

"yes."

"When the Chairman heard the news, he drank an extra bowl of rice porridge this morning and said to Chen Bulei, 'Tang's visit is worth more than 100,000 soldiers.'"

"The intelligence work of our Military Intelligence Bureau in Shanghai was highly praised."

Dai Li smiled slightly and said with satisfaction.

As he spoke, a hint of smugness appeared in his eyes: "By the way, the Chairman ordered me to go to the official residence at noon to present this matter, so there's no need to prepare lunch."

"Director, what about Tang Zengyang..."

Before Jia Jinnan could finish speaking, Dai Li waved his hand and said, "Leave Tang Zengyang's security and accommodation to Xu Enzeng."

"The Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) has made two 'dead moves' this time, which can be considered a merit. We can't push things too far."

"After all, what matters most is that the Chairman knows who was behind it."

"Let them take the credit for what's publicly known."

Dai Li gave a shrewd, calculating sneer.

"Hmph! This time it's all thanks to your strategic planning, boss, and the specific implementation by Wang Xuesen's three-person team."

"Xu Enzeng is just like a pie falling from the sky, getting something for nothing."

"He got off too easy."

Jia Jinnan chuckled and made a couple of sarcastic remarks, while also taking the opportunity to praise Wang Xuesen.

Dai Li knew that he and Xuewen had a deep brotherly bond and that he had high expectations for "Xuesen," but he did not point it out.

After all, as long as things get done.

Whether it's true or false, he's a talented person.

"A secret telegram was sent to Juniper... praising him highly."

"Also, give 'Shen Gongbao' and 'Huang Li' a big credit rating. Just to be safe, write it down in your little notebook. Don't go looking for Mao Renfeng."

"They will be registered and promoted together on the day of liberation."

Dai Li initially wanted to allocate more funds, but considering the safety of the transportation lines and the wealth and power of the Su family, he abandoned the idea.

"Yes, boss." Jia Jinnan accepted the order.

……

Office of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.

Xu Enzeng stood ramrod straight, his voice respectful yet resonant: "Thank you for the commendation, Chairman. I will certainly make new contributions."

"yes!"

"Yes! Your subordinate will ensure Mr. Tang's life and safety."

hang up the phone.

Xu Zhaolin, a trusted secretary standing nearby, handed over tea and flattered, "Director, congratulations! The Chairman personally praised you. Our Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics has won a great victory in Shanghai this time."

Xu Enzeng's smile vanished, replaced by an icy coldness: "Congratulations?"

"Where does this joy come from?"

"Dai Li was in charge of ordering Chen Bulei to control everything throughout the entire process."

"This is all thanks to the Military Intelligence Bureau's Shanghai station."

"Do you think the old man doesn't know? He personally commended me simply to be fair and not let Dai Li enjoy the credit alone and become arrogant."

"What outsiders see as a cause for celebration, we are probably being labeled as cowards by the Chairman."

"Dai Li took the initiative to ask the Chairman for instructions and handed over the security and other matters of Tang Zengyang to us."

"Hmph, he's the one with lofty ideals and integrity, while I'm just copying his ideas."

"He's showing off, he's slapping me in the face."

Xu En snorted coldly and took a sip of his tea.

"That's strange."

"Wang Tianmu and his gang from the Military Intelligence Bureau only knew how to assassinate and carry out demolitions before. How come they've suddenly developed brains?"

"Moreover, our people conducted extensive covert investigations."

"To this day, the person behind this incident remains completely unknown and clueless."

"Moreover, based on our analysis of the military intelligence telegrams, Dai Li's communication with this person should have used a separate cipher system."

This clearly demonstrates the importance of this person.

Xu Zhaolin also sensed the crisis.

"yes."

"We need to find a way to dig this guy out."

"Right now, the Japanese and the Wang Jingwei regime are rampant. In this time of national crisis, we may not undermine them, but we must know who these people are."

"Knowing but not announcing it is for the greater good."

"But if we are completely unaware, we will always be in a passive position."

"The key is that this knife is in Dai Li's hands, and it might come down on our heads any day."

Xu Enzeng shook his finger and gave a solemn instruction.

"Understood. I will have Director Guo notify the Shanghai district to dig out this person at all costs." Xu Zhaolin understood and immediately accepted the order.

"By the way, this is the article that Tang Zengyang is preparing to publish in the National Daily."

"This is the application form; please take a look."

Xu Zhaolin took out a document and handed it over.

Xu Enzeng glanced at it and frowned.

"Director, is there a problem?" Xu Zhaolin asked.

Xu Enzeng gleaned a glimpse of something from the contents.

But it's also very vague.

I couldn't explain it for a moment.

"Tang Zengyang was a close friend of Chen Bulei and a scathing critic of the Wang Jingwei regime, the No. 76 secret police, and the Japanese."

"The article was then sent to the Attendant's Office for review by Chen Bulei."

"If anything goes wrong, he'll take responsibility for it himself."

Xu Enzeng gave the instructions.
