Espionage codename: Shen Gongbao

Read Chapter 86 now, this time we've really won big: and start today's exciting content.

Wang Xuesen tucked the documents into his pocket, walked briskly up to the second floor, and knocked on the door of Ding Mocun's office.

After knocking a few times, a voice from inside said, "Wait a moment."

About ten minutes later, the door opened.

Shen Yue walked out with a flushed face, and gave Wang Xuesen a flirtatious wink: "Director Wang, please."

"Thanks."

Wang Xuesen smiled back, went into the house and closed the door behind him, then took out some documents from his pocket: "Uncle, I've made progress on what you asked me to collect."

"Take a look."

Ding Mocun picked up the documents and quickly flipped through them, his eyes filled with a mixture of joy and suspicion: "Great! Where did you get this evidence?"

"Don't I also serve as the deputy director of the finance department?"

"Sometimes I have access to some documents and information."

"In addition, Lieutenant Shibuya would reveal some things when he was drinking."

Wang Xuesen explained.

"Mr. Shibuya also has feelings for Li Shiqun..." Ding Mocun was quite surprised.

"Yes."

"Shibuya has long been dissatisfied with Ye Jiqing's falsification of accounts."

"When I drink with him lately, I often hear him complaining. I even suspect that his so-called drunken talk is deliberately leaked to me."

"The purpose is to secretly lend you a hand, Director."

"Now, the timing, location, and people are all in your hands, Director. Success or failure hinges on this one move."

Wang Xuesen nodded, covered his lips with one hand, and whispered the message.

"Xuesen, you've done a great job."

Ding Mocun grinned broadly and slammed his hand on the table:

"To be honest, Tang Huimin also provided some evidence, but it was all just hearsay and trivial matters, and it wasn't very damaging. I've been hesitating about whether to launch an attack on Li Shiqun."

"Now we have this solid evidence."

"Li the traitor has no way to escape."

"Tell me your request, and I may be able to grant it."

Ding Mocun was in a great mood and asked with a smile, his hands behind his back.

"Director, you said I'm not as thorough or considerate as Secretary Mao in handling matters, and given my high position as director of the interrogation room, there's really no way I can be promoted further."

"I...I won't make things difficult for you. I'm content, I'm content."

Wang Xuesen looked up at him, feigning a hesitant expression as if he wanted it but dared not.

If he doesn't "strive for improvement" at this point, given Ding Mocun's suspicious nature, he will definitely doubt the authenticity and sincerity of the intelligence.

Demanding and greed make Ding Mocun feel that he has ideas and wants to improve himself.

This will not only put Dingmo Village at ease.

At the same time, it also gives Ding Mocun a sense of security and a feeling of being needed, as well as a sense of being in control of the overall situation.

"It's understandable for young people to want to improve themselves."

"However, I still need to consider this matter."

"Don't worry, I will not mistreat any meritorious official."

Ding Mocun understood; this kid was implying that he wanted to replace Mao Ziming as his secretary.

Ambitious and willing to improve.

That's good.

"OK."

Wang Xuesen got up and left his seat.

After Wang Xuesen left, Ding Mocun sat at his desk and carefully checked the materials. He had checked the equipment requisition and storage records of the General Affairs Department.

The intelligence was largely accurate and valid.

It seems Wang Xuesen really put in the effort this time, and it wasn't in vain that he "rewarded" Pingping to him.

Whether this kid can seize the opportunity is another matter entirely.

After all, Zheng Pingping's influence is still quite deep.

Anyway, I need to be careful and avoid things.

However, there was one thing Wang Xuesen said that truly resonated with him.

Mao Ziming is a good-for-nothing. He smokes opium, gambles, borrows money at exorbitant interest rates, and constantly whispers in Zijun's ear. Sooner or later, he'll cause trouble.

Once a person gets hooked on opium, he's no different from a beast.

Who knows when he might go crazy with cash and risk his intelligence or even his safety to exchange for silver dollars or opium?

In contrast, Xue Sen was considerate and meticulous in providing medicine, intelligence, connecting with the Chamber of Commerce, and paying for everything, making him the perfect candidate to be a secretary.

However, Mao Ziming knew too many secrets.

If pushed too far, they might become desperate and bite indiscriminately, which would be difficult to handle.

Well, we'll see.

Ding Mocun rubbed his temples, pondered for a moment, then picked up the phone and dialed a number:

"Hello, Mr. Shibuya, do you have a moment?"

"I'd like to come and ask you some questions."

He felt it necessary to sound out Shibuya's opinion and see if he really supported him as Wang Xuesen had said.

in the case of.

This intelligence is reliable.

He could kill Li Shiqun with a single, decisive blow.

……

In the following period of time, No. 76 underwent a dramatic change.

Ding Mocun asked Kawamoto Yoshitaro and Japanese Ambassador Shimizu Tozo to jointly sue Li Shiqun for embezzlement and other crimes. With conclusive evidence, Kagesa Teisho officially announced the suspension of all funding for Li Shiqun.

They also ordered Li Shiqun, Wu Sibao, and others to take mandatory leave pending further action.

In a short time.

Ding Mocun's power has greatly increased, and he seems poised to take sole control of No. 76.

In order to further infiltrate Li Shiqun's inner circle, Wang Xuesen was stripped of his position as director of the interrogation room by Ding Mocun and only served as an advisor to the First Division.

……

1939 10 Month 27 Day.

Mei Agency.

Haruki Yoshitaka, unusually dressed in military uniform, walked solemnly into Kagesa Yoshiaki's office.

"Chief!" Qingqi bowed respectfully.

"Haruki-kun, please sit." Kagesa Yoshiaki put down his pen and gestured for him to sit.

Qingqi sat down opposite him and said with dissatisfaction, "General, No. 76 was created by you and Li Shiqun with your guidance and support. It dealt a heavy blow to the likes of Dai Li and Xu Enzeng and has become a powerful weapon against the mountain city."

"It's utterly despicable and shameless for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to jump out at this time to reap the rewards of victory. This is an insult to me, to you, and to the Ministry of the Army."

"It is also a disgrace to us."

"I am not reconciled!"

"Baka!"

Kageyama slammed his hand on the table, staring at him coldly and said:

"I handed over No. 76 to you with full authority. As the person directly in charge, why did you submit Ding Mocun's evidence to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy?"

"Now the evidence is conclusive, and all of this is due to your negligence and incompetence."

"Hi!"

"I am incompetent and have failed the general's trust."

Qingqi Qingyin's face tightened as he stood up to admit his mistake.

"I know you're resentful and dissatisfied."

"I've read all of these materials."

"If all of this is true, then I would say that compared to people like Zhou Fohai and Fu Youan, Li Shiqun is undoubtedly a clean, upright, and reliable person."

Kageyama tapped the table, his tone softening.

"Yes, General."

"To deal with Dai Li, Xu Enzeng, and the Red Tickets, we still need Mr. Li. He is a genius intelligence expert and Dai Li's nemesis and nemesis," Qingqi Qingyin said.

"No rush."

"Li Shiqun is too sharp-tongued. It's a good thing to let him suffer a loss and reflect on his actions."

"Furthermore, since the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has come to complain in such a high-profile manner, we still have to save face for them."

"Give this to Li Shiqun."

"Tell him that shame will inspire courage, and that the Great Japanese Empire and the head of this agency will not mistreat any soldier who sheds blood for the Empire."

Kagesa Yoshiaki stood up, took down the Type 94 shogun's sword hanging on the wall, and presented it to Haruki Yoshitane with both hands.

"Thank you, General!"

Qingqi Qingyin was overjoyed. He took the knife with both hands, stepped back, and bowed formally to him.

"Go." Kagesa Yoshiaki waved his hand.

"Hi."

Qingqi Qingyin accepted the order and left.

Back in his office, he began to ponder.

Now that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has impeached Li Shiqun, he, as the person in charge, has been affected to some extent. It is not appropriate to send Li Shiqun a knife at this time, otherwise it would be like putting General Yingzuo on the fire and inviting the dissatisfaction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Mei Agency is a coalition with too many factions.

Being a bureau chief isn't easy either.

Who to look for?

Got it!

Suddenly, Qingqi thought of someone... Wang Xuesen!

……

No. 76 Family Building.

Li Shiqun, with his eyes covered by gauze, played hide-and-seek and roughhouse with the children in the living room.

Ye Jiqing stood on the stairs with a gloomy face, arms crossed, growing angrier the more he looked: "Yunxiang, Yunshu, do you have nothing better to do? Go upstairs and study."

"Okay, Mom."

In this family, the mother is a tigress, and even the father has to listen to her.

The two children pouted and obediently went upstairs.

"What time is it? You still have the mind to play hide-and-seek? Look, the guard brigade has been taken over by Lin Zhijiang, and the intelligence department has also been occupied."

"This time, No. 76 has completely changed its surname to Ding. All the hard work we put in and the achievements we finally made have been taken away by others."

Ye Jiqing stood with his hands on his hips and angrily cursed.

"Alright, everything is going according to plan. Let's take it slow," Li Shiqun said with a gentle smile.

"plan!"

"I get angry just thinking about this. I think you're all confused. How could you believe a mere kid?"

"Who gathers evidence to sue themselves?"

"You were fooled by Wang Xuesen, and Liu Zhongwen too. You always said he had such great foresight, but now you've ruined everything."

"Who knows, Wang Xuesen, that opportunist, might just be someone Ding Mocun sent to deliberately harm us."

Ye Jiqing said angrily.

"Everything takes time, madam, why are you in such a hurry?" Li Shiqun couldn't explain it to her for the time being.

"What process?"

"I went to see Lieutenant Colonel Haruki yesterday, but he turned me away."

"And Captain Okamura also ignored us."

"What's this called?"

"Once the person leaves, the tea grows cold!"

"Shiqun, we've been tricked. How could you still be kept in the dark about such an obvious and clear fact?"

Regardless of any plans, Ye Jiqing only knew that people's hearts were now scattered, and No. 76 had become Ding Mo Village's territory.

"Hmph, what kind of invincible winning strategy is this? You can sit at home and do nothing and still win every time, win all kinds of games."

"Where did you win?"

"Where?"

"You'd better let Wang Xuesen win one for me and see."

"You all got ripped off by some kid, and you still have the nerve to say you're not in a hurry? You're really trying to make me angry!"

She cursed and yelled, her chest heaving with anger.

"Madam, please calm down." Li Shiqun quickly handed her some tea.

Then he sat down to the side and started smoking in silence.

He was actually quite panicked.

At least for now, we're completely outmatched and there's absolutely no hope of winning.

The loss of contact between Haruki Yoshitane and Okamura, in particular, gave him a deep sense of fear of being abandoned.

Could it be that Wang Xuesen really tricked us?

If that's the case, he'd risk his life to send this kid to his grave!

I'm really worried about it.

The guard came in: "Director, Wang Xuesen requests an audience."

"Strict security checks," Li Shiqun instructed.

"Yes." The subordinate accepted the order.

Li Shiqun cocked his pistol and placed it in its usual spot.

He knew in his heart that this move was unnecessary; it was just a habit.

If Wang Xuesen were truly from Dingmo Village, he would have already been rewarding him for his contributions and discussing how to completely eliminate him, instead of visiting him when he was feeling restless and troubled.

"Big brother, sister-in-law!" Wang Xuesen walked in with a smile, carrying a black box on his back.

"What are you doing here, Master Yingxue? Haven't you hurt us badly enough?" Ye Jiqing said sarcastically, showing no mercy.

"sister in law."

"I have good news for you."

"This time we've really won big!"

Wang Xuesen took off the box that was slung over his shoulder.

"How did you get so excited about winning?" Ye Jiqing stared at him speechlessly.

"Brother, sister-in-law, please look."

Wang Xuesen opened the box and slowly took out the scabbard adorned with three cherry blossoms.

"What's the use of a broken Japanese sword? What did it win?" Ye Jiqing said disdainfully, crossing her arms over her breasts.

Li Shiqun, standing to the side, was horrified.

Three cherry blossoms, double hanging rings, and the handle is still the old Type 94 general's sword wrapped in sharkskin.

Handles made of sharkskin.

These are the swords used by generals.

Is it...

Li Shiqun began to tremble involuntarily.

Just then, Wang Xuesen's expression turned solemn. He held his sword flat with both hands and shouted loudly in the Japanese of the Choshu Domain: "Li Shiqun, listen to my command!"
