Ni Loach immediately ordered that Liang Yu personally led people to keep an eye on him while he guarded the trash can.
On the other side, the mysterious man who had just discovered Loach and the others grabbed the man who looked like a scavenger and left quickly.
In a deserted place, the scavenger man dug out a package from the garbage truck, took out the clothes inside and put it on, washed his face, arranged his hair and put on a hat.
His appearance changed completely in an instant, and he looked like a boss. If Ni Loach saw him, he would definitely recognize him as the person Yang Jian drew.
"Ogasa-kun, what happened?"
After changing their clothes, the two slowly walked outside. At this time, the man asked about the situation.
"Akiyama-kun, Wei Zhiping has been exposed, and someone is following him." Koji Kogasa, who led him away, said with a sullen face.
Akiyama Shigeru was not surprised. When he was urgently taken away by his companions, he understood that he could not get the information this time. There must be an emergency.
"Are you sure?" Akiyama Shigeru asked as he walked.
"I'm sure it's someone from the Military Intelligence Department. I recognized Zhao San and he personally led the team."
Koji Ogasa nodded, and Shigeru Akiyama felt a chill in his heart.
After the continuous losses of the Special High School, they paid more attention to the Military Intelligence Division, especially Chu Lingyun's Operation Group Four.
Now Chu Lingyun has been promoted to deputy section chief, and the leader of the fourth group is his close subordinate Zhao San, nicknamed Ni Loach.
Zhao San's appearance here shows that they are indeed keeping an eye on Wei Zhiping. The people in the Military Intelligence Department are really scary. It didn't take long before they discovered the person they had instigated.
Fortunately, team leader Hasegawa made careful arrangements and did not use the dead mailbox method used in the previous special high school courses, but a more flexible and safer form of connectors and security guards.
The information provided to them by the Mole will be delivered by the Mole himself, but they will not pick it up.
You will find a stranger, bribe him, let him take the things, and then send them to a designated place. During this process, a companion will act as an observer, secretly checking their connections, and following and monitoring the person who collects information.
There are two advantages to doing this. First, they are in the dark and far away, and can detect wrong situations in time, such as today.
The second is to ensure that the information falls into their hands. Once the bribed person takes the information, they can retaliate at any time.
This method saved their lives today.
If the dead mailbox is used to obtain information, since Wei Zhiping is being targeted, the dead mailbox will definitely be exposed, and whoever goes to get the information will be in danger.
Hasegawa does have some ability. After his previous working methods were exposed, he immediately thought of a flexible way to use middlemen to obtain information.
This is not without its drawbacks, such as having to work in pairs and one person
Become a full-time observer, so that if there is a loss, there will be two.
However, the previous mode is not much better. In the team leader mode, as long as the team leader is caught, the entire team will face the risk of being arrested. The previous failures have been verified.
Several groups of moles were completely lost.
Loach stared at the people, unaware that the people he was looking for had already spotted them and ran away.
"Team leader, the section chief is here."
When his subordinates came over to report, Loach hurriedly ran out to greet Chu Lingyun.
"Section Chief, why are you here?" Loach asked in a low voice.
"What's the situation now?" Chu Lingyun asked the case directly without any nonsense.
"Wei Zhiping went out with a small box and gave the box to a young man. The young man took the box and threw it into the trash can. I guess the person who came to take the box was the real spy."
Ni Loach has made great progress. Although he didn't know that he was exposed, he guessed the methods used by Japanese spies to obtain intelligence.
The person we just contacted is probably just a stand-in for the Japanese spy. If they act rashly to arrest someone, they will definitely alert the enemy.
For some reason, Ni Loach suddenly thought of Wang Jialiang at Wuhan Station. If Wang Jialiang were here, he would probably arrest people directly. Shen Hanwen might also do this in the past.
I used to do that, but not anymore.
"Is everyone watching?" Chu Lingyun asked again.
"Keep an eye on it."
Ni Loach nodded. Two people had appeared. Wei Zhiping was basically sure that it was a Han woman who did it. The identity of the other person has not yet been determined.
"Team leader, section chief, there's a situation."
The team members came to report quickly, and Loach immediately picked up the telescope, but instead of looking at it himself, he handed it to Chu Lingyun.
Chu Lingyun was not polite and took the telescope to look at it.
It was getting dark, and an old man scavenging came to the trash can, rummaged through it, and quickly took out a small box.
Through the telescope, I saw that the old man was stunned for a moment after opening the box, then immediately closed the box, held it in his arms, picked up his cart and walked away. He walked very fast.
"Keep an eye on it, be careful, don't scare anyone."
Loach didn't have a telescope, but he could still see people in the distance even if they were far away, so he immediately gave the order.
The corners of Chu Lingyun's eyebrows twitched. This old scavenger was not like a spy. A spy would observe the surroundings when gathering information. He did not, and a spy would not open it immediately. He would go to a safe place and watch.
The old man's reaction was more like he had picked up something valuable. What was in the box that would make him behave like this?
This is a temporary surveillance point. After the old man took away the box, Chu Lingyun also left. The old man didn't pick up anything along the way and hurriedly returned to a dilapidated shack.
Inside he locked the door and opened the box tremblingly.
In front of the window, he carefully counted the money in the box, which was one thousand two hundred and eighty yuan.
This money was a huge sum of money to him. His hands and body were shaking. With this money, he no longer had to scavenge. He could go back to his hometown and buy dozens of acres of land, two cows, and the rest. It was enough for him to build a big house and even marry a widow.
Got rich.
The old man hid the money carefully, knelt there and kowtowed repeatedly, thanking God for his reward.
"Section Chief, this person may be a spy. He disguised himself as an old man scavenging so that he could take away the information smoothly. After getting the information, he ran out immediately, but there is no way there is a radio station hidden here. He must take the information Forward it to his upline and then send the report."
Loach said excitedly, he was familiar with this trick, it was a trick commonly used by Japanese spies.
As for there being no radio station here, it is not safe, and there is no power here, so it is impossible to send a message.
Chu Lingyun frowned, feeling something was wrong.
The Japanese do like to use this method, but they already know the disadvantages of this method, and the previous sleeper team in Nanjing was eliminated by them in this way.
Don’t the Japanese learn any lesson?
And the old man's reaction made him feel that the other person was not a real spy. The reaction was too real. If he was really a spy, it can only be said that he was acting even when no one was around. Is this necessary?
"He's out."
Loach suddenly said, Chu Lingyun picked up the binoculars, the old scavenger carefully closed the door and came outside, and the team members behind him immediately followed from a distance.
Loach treats him as a real spy and needs to be very careful.
The old scavenger went into a small restaurant and ordered a bowl of noodles, noodles with meat.
As soon as the noodles came up, he ate them hungrily, and Chu Lingyun frowned even more.
This look doesn't look like a spy at all.
After a spy obtains information, he will find a way to pass it on, or continue to do what he was doing before. How could he be like this and come here to eat shredded pork noodles?
For the old man scavenging, shredded pork noodles are a delicious food. "Get ready to arrest people."
Chu Lingyun suddenly said, this old man is not a spy. What is in the box that makes him so nervous and happy?
The answer is obvious, money, or something valuable?
In this case, Wei Zhiping can explain it clearly by bringing a small box. Generally, information is mostly delivered by paper, so there is no need to get a box.
But if this is the case, the old man is not a spy, he is just a pure
I picked up the box by chance and thought I had gotten a windfall, so I was so excited and rewarded myself.
"Section Chief, arrest him now. He hasn't passed on the information yet?"
Loach's eyes widened. This was not like the section chief's style of doing things. The section chief always liked to maximize profits. After focusing on someone, he would definitely keep staring at it until he achieved the maximum gain.
"Grasp."
Chu Lingyun did not explain.
After eating and drinking, the old man left satisfied. He will return to his hometown tomorrow and will not suffer in Nanjing.
When he reached the door, he looked carefully, then turned around and opened the door.
Several people hiding in the dark and behind the house received the action signal and immediately ran out. Several people went up together and instantly controlled the old man.
Some people pulled his neck, some blocked his mouth, and some quickly checked his whole body.
He had no poison, no weapons, and only two dollars. "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The old man screamed in horror. He didn't expect that he would be discovered so quickly and take action after he had just made a fortune.
His money is more than a thousand yuan.
"Go in and search."
Chu Lingyun ordered, and Loach personally led people to search inside, and soon found the small box, but the contents were gone.
Not long after, Loach found the money buried by the old man in the ground, more than a thousand yuan.
How can an old man who scavenges have so much money?
Loach was stunned for a moment when he saw the money. He soon understood that the money in the box was money. The old scavenger picked up the money, so he went out to eat noodles to improve his life.
Loach is not stupid, what Chu Lingyun thought of before, he finally figured it out now.
If this is the case, the old man is probably not a spy, but a real scavenger, so the section chief ordered them to arrest him to avoid wasting time.
"Section Chief, look."
After coming out, Loach took out the money. When the old man saw that the money he had hidden was found, he struggled even more fiercely, and his eyes were filled with fire, as if he wanted to eat someone.
This money can completely change his life, so that he no longer has to worry about his livelihood. Damn it, robbers came to steal his money.
At this moment, he really wanted to die.
"Take him back for interrogation and leave a few people to investigate his situation. We must find out everything."
Chu Lingyun arranged the task and returned to the Military Intelligence Office with the people.
The old man was escorted into the torture room. Seeing such a torture room, the old man already felt something was wrong. How could the robber bring him to such a place?
"Let him talk."
Chu Lingyun was sitting at the interrogation table. The team members stepped forward and released the stuff that blocked the old man's mouth. As soon as the old man could speak, he immediately shouted: "Who are you and why are you robbing me of my money?"
"Where did you get that money?" Chu Lingyun didn't talk nonsense. "I, I earned it." The old man bit it to death because it was his own money.
Without saying a word, Loach took out his pistol and threw it on the table with a bang. When he saw the gun, the old man shivered in fright. He understood that these were not ordinary people in front of him.
"Tell the truth, or I'll shoot you."
Loach asked coldly. The old man hesitated for a moment, but finally failed to withstand the intimidation and honestly confessed that he had just picked up the money.
Sure enough, what Wei Zhiping put in the box was money. But why did he put the money? Who was the money for?
If Wei Zhiping didn't put in the information, there is no irrefutable proof that he did it to a Han woman. Could it be that he didn't do it to a Han woman and the money was meant to be given to others?
Impossible. If he was giving money, there would be no need to be so secretive. He could just send it directly.
Besides, so much money was thrown into the trash can and picked up by others.
Chu Lingyun's face turned pale, and he already understood what was going on.
"Arrest people immediately, Wei Zhiping, and the person who took Wei Zhiping's box."
Chu Lingyun ordered that the old man was not interrogated. He was too young to withstand the punishment. Besides, it was easy to verify whether he was a real old man scavenging.
"Loach, come with me.
"
Chu Lingyun left the torture room and took Loach away. He had his men to arrest the people, so he didn't have to go. "Section Chief, did I make a mistake?"
When they got outside, Ni Loach asked carefully. He had guessed before that the old man was not a spy, but why did Wei Zhiping throw away so much money and was picked up by the old man?
"Tell me the details of their connection."
Chu Lingyun was not here before, so he didn't know the specific situation. Looking at it now, mistakes may have really been made in Ni Loach's case.
Loach recalled it and kept an eye on Wei Zhiping. Wei Zhiping came home from get off work and then came out. His expression after arriving at the restaurant, as well as the various behaviors of the young people who interacted with him, were described in detail.
He kept talking until the young man threw the box Wei Zhiping gave him into the trash can.
"As soon as they left, you kept an eye on the young man?"
"Yes, but I followed him far away and didn't dare to get close."
Ni Loach nodded, and Chu Lingyun sighed. Since Ni Loach was following people, he must move around like the young people in front of him. He brought a lot of people with him. With so many people following him, if the enemy had made arrangements in advance, it would be easy to
Discover.
Looking at it now, Loach's actions have been exposed, so the Japanese did not pick up the box and gave up the contents.
The box was picked up by an old scavenger. He thought he had made a fortune and went out to have a good meal.
As for why Wei Zhiping sent money, it is not difficult to guess that he was indeed a Han woman who provided intelligence to the Japanese. However, the shootings a few days ago frightened him. He really gave up and was unwilling to follow the Japanese.
Wei Zhiping received a call today, and the other party was asking him for information. Fortunately for him, he returned the money directly, thinking that in this way he could get rid of the control of the Japanese and return to normal life.
Whether this is the case will be known once Wei Zhiping is brought for first trial.
