Chapter 571: Longshan, no, Longfeng
Shanghai Stock Exchange, Meihua Building, Office of the Director of the Materials Operation Center.
Chen Yang stood in front of the window and sighed.
Boss Dai said, "The party-state has no shortage of elites, but you are different. You are a hero." This made Chen Yang burst into tears.
Yes, who says that only those who stand in the light are heroes?
Am I not also a hero? What's more, I have taken off all my clothes for the party and the country.
However, Lin Zhuo's incident also aroused his vigilance.
After his last discussion with Li Xianshu, Chen Yang realized that this aunt was not as powerful as he had imagined.
The intelligence network she controls may be strong, but it may not be as strong as his.
Therefore, the only reason why Lin Zhuo suddenly ran to Wuhan was that the news that Shanghai Station had stopped Lin Zhuo had been leaked.
The Shanghai Station was the largest and most important station among the twenty district stations of the Military Control Commission.
After Wang Pucheng, the Shanghai Station had three station chiefs. Although it later experienced Japanese raids, most of its strength was preserved.
Today, the Shanghai Station has two intelligence groups, two action groups, and one radio group.
The total number of staff has increased several times compared to before.
With so many people, it is inevitable that there will be good and bad among them, and Chen Yang cannot guarantee whether there are any Japanese moles among them.
"Knock, knock, knock," there was a knock on the door. Chen Yang walked back to his seat and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
The office door opened and Li Qun walked in with his back hunched. For some reason, Chen Yang always felt that Li Qun was even walking cautiously.
"Director Li, you came quite quickly," Chen Yang said lightly.
"I dare not. I received a call from Chief Chen and came here immediately. I wonder what instructions he has?"
Chen Yang extended his hand and said, "Sit down."
Li Qun sat down as he was told.
Chen Yang took a sip of coffee and said, "Do you know about Lin Zhuo's situation?"
Li Qun was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "The department has received instructions. Lin Zhuo will go to Wuhan to assist the frontline troops in deciphering the military code."
With a bang, Chen Yang put the coffee heavily on the table and sneered, "Director Li, tell me, why is this happening?"
Li Qun seemed a little afraid to look Chen Yang in the eye, and said timidly: "I don't understand what the chief means by this?"
"You don't understand?" Chen Yang snorted and said, "Madam pointed at my nose and scolded me for not knowing how to manage my subordinates."
"She was very disappointed with the performance of Seventy-Six, and she was also very disappointed with me."
"Otherwise, why would she arrange for Lin Zhuo to go to Hankou and have the Bamboo Agency take over? That clearly shows that she doesn't trust No. 76."
"Director Li, I have always been very kind to you. I will give you money if you ask for it and I will give you people if you ask for them."
"Is this how you repay me?"
"I asked you to carefully identify the traitors. Have you heard anything about that?"
Li Qun was so frightened that he stood up hastily and explained: "Sir, the department has already ordered people to do a strict screening."
"So far, no source of confidential information leakage has been found."
"I thought maybe it wasn't a leak, it was just a simple mistake."
Chen Yang sneered, "A mistake can cover up the fault of the entire action team. Director Li, do you think you can explain it?"
Li Qun was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "This operation failed. The department's command was inappropriate. This is an unforgivable crime. Please punish me, sir."
Chen Yang's expression eased slightly, and he said calmly: "We will discuss the punishment after the screening operation has a result."
"By the way, how is Director Nakanishi doing?"
Li Qun said sternly, "I followed your instructions and provided you with delicious food and drink without saying a single word."
"The dean of the department just reads the newspaper in his room every day and he doesn't have any complaints."
Chen Yang nodded and said, "That's it for today. Director Li will not only have to conduct a thorough internal investigation, but also needs to clear out the intelligence agencies planted by the Military Control Commission and the Central Control Commission in Shanghai."
"The intelligence capabilities of No. 76 have already been criticized. I don't want to hear people say that No. 76 is incompetent and can't even catch the undercover personnel."
"Yes, our department will do our best." Li Qun stood up, saluted, and left the office dejectedly.
Chen Yang looked at Li Qun's receding back and began to murmur unconsciously.
He thought that the Red Party would be able to quickly find the place where Zhong Xigong was imprisoned, but now it seems that he seemed to have overestimated the other party.
In fact, if Xili Longfu had not been so smart as to copy the two words "Longshan" from the manuscript, Hu Yunqing and others would have known the location of Zhong Xigong earlier.
It was precisely because of this "Longshan" that Hu Yunqing and others took a long detour.
Shanghai, Jinmin Street, Longfeng Hotel.
In front of the hotel, several rickshaws were parked in a disorderly manner.
However, these people are very different from ordinary rickshaw pullers. They just sit quietly in front of the rickshaws, neither standing up to solicit customers nor chatting with passers-by.
They rarely speak to each other, and their eyes will intentionally or unintentionally linger on every person who passes by.
But he quickly turned to the next target, and this look made passers-by very uncomfortable.
Just like guarding against thieves...
On the second floor of a residential building across the street, Hu Yunqing lifted a corner of the curtain, looked carefully for a while, lowered the curtain, turned around and said to the people in the house: "It seems that we have found the right place this time."
"Fisherman, how did you find this place?"
The middle-aged man codenamed Fisherman said, "Last time you asked us to look for a place called Longshan, but we searched most of Shanghai and found no clues."
"So, the stonemason and I came up with a plan to track down Li Zuping, the leader of the No. 76 Action Team."
"We followed him for three days and finally got here."
"When we saw the hotel sign, we both realized that there was something wrong with the information you provided."
"The other party didn't write Longshan, but Longfeng."
Hu Yunqing was a little embarrassed. They trusted too much the information conveyed by the comrades in Nanjing.
Little did people know that Xililongfu had never seen the address in person. He copied it down with a carbon pen, and the word "dragon" is still very clear.
As the handwriting of the word "Feng" at the end was unclear, he instinctively thought it was "Longshan" or something, which led to the misunderstanding.
However, although there were twists and turns in the process, the result was still good.
Hu Yunqing and others successfully found Zhong Xigong's hiding place.
Hu Yunqing pondered for a moment and said, "We have found the right place. The next step is to pass the information in."
"The identity of this person inside is very important. After you complete your mission, you must retreat to the rear as soon as possible."
"Fisherman, do you have any ideas?"
The fisherman nodded and said, "The stonemason has already infiltrated. He has observed the on-site environment and found that they are tight on the outside but loose on the inside. The defense inside is not tight. I believe there is a chance to contact the target person."
"That's good." Hu Yunqing said, "Tell the stonemasons to be careful and retreat immediately after completing the task to avoid unnecessary losses."
