Chapter 1023 Investigation Whereabouts (Seeking Double Monthly Tickets)
Luo Xingchao guessed the truth of the matter and could no longer sit still. This incident had a great impact and he had to report to Ning Zhiheng as soon as possible.
So Luo Xingchao ordered the two assistants to continue inquiries, quickly left the office and quickly left the agents headquarters.
Two hours later, Ning Zhiheng, who received the emergency contact notice, rushed to the contact point as quickly as possible and listened to Luo Xingchao's report.
"Have Gao Zhiwu and Tao Chengyuan left?"
Ning Zhiheng's eyes were as deep as ink and his eyes were faint. He thought a lot and thought carefully about the impact of the situation. This matter was of great importance.
The core senior official of the pseudo-government actually defected at the beginning of its establishment. This was a loud slap in the face of the pseudo-government and the Japanese, which would inevitably attract attention from both at home and abroad, and even at the international level.
However, Ning Zhiheng paid great attention to details. When he heard Luo Xingchao report that Agent No. 76 went to the concession to inquire about the news, he knew something was wrong, which shows that Li Zhiqun must have discovered something?
He ordered Luo Xingchao: "Tell me the specific situation, don't miss it, and tell me in detail!"
So Luo Xingchao started from scratch and described the information that Cui Yuanfeng had found in as detailed as possible.
Soon Ning Zhiheng found a missing point and couldn't help but sneer: "These people are hard to become great. As the saying goes, they have to do their best when they move. Now, they have to do things in a bad way, leaving so many survivors and leaving the other party with their tails. Li Zhiqun also reacted quickly enough and found the direction of action so quickly!"
Luo Xingchao was also extremely smart. He had some speculations in his heart as early as the beginning of his news. Now when he heard Ning Zhiheng say this, he nodded in agreement: "I also judge that the Qing Gang forces were involved in it, but I don't know who did it?"
Ning Zhiheng thought about it and quickly sorted out the clues inside. Based on the information I received from the concession, he nodded and said, "If I was not wrong, this matter should have been done by Chen Ting, the leader of the Qing Gang. Before, Yue Sheng sent Wan Mulin to Shanghai to urgently deal with a difficult thing. After returning, he had frequent contact with Chen Ting, and I had a premonition that something big happened now. It seems that this matter is to assist Gao Tao and the others to escape. Unexpectedly, it is not easy for the grassroots to do such a feat!"
Ning Zhiheng lamented quite that although Yue Sheng, Wan Mulin, and Chen Ting were all from gangs, they had bad records before and could be said to be no good gentlemen, but they are still commendable in fighting the Japanese.
"Chen Ting?"
Because Luo Xingchao was at the agent headquarters and was not well-informed about the concession, he was not clear about Wan Mulin's affairs. Only after hearing Ning Zhiheng's words did he understand the whole story.
Luo Xingchao then asked, "Do you think Gao Tao and the other two will be hidden in the concession by Wan Mulin and Chen Ting?"
Ning Zhiheng smiled and shook his head. Li Zhiqun and others didn't know that Wan Mulin and Chen Ting took action, so it was difficult to judge the direction of Gao Tao and the other two for a while. However, Ning Zhiheng received the most comprehensive information, so the judgment made was different from others.
"Behind Wan Mulin is Yue Sheng, and Yue Sheng is in Hong Kong at this time, and Hong Kong is the territory of the British. He is relatively safe and not afraid of Japanese investigation. He must have asked Wan Mulin to send Gao Tao and the others to Hong Kong, because central China is within the control of the Japanese and it is too dangerous to run away from land, so it is better to go directly to Hong Kong by sea.
If what I expected was not bad, Chen Ting chose to do it last night, then there must be a passenger ship heading to Hong Kong last night, and then it will be delivered directly to the ship. This is the safest and safest solution."
Luo Xingchao couldn't help feeling relieved when he heard Ning Zhiheng's analysis. He was really afraid that Gao Tao and the others would still stay in the concession at this time. Now the concession is like an isolated island, surrounded by the Japanese. If he is really trapped in the concession, he will sooner or later find him.
Luo Xingchao said: "It is also a patriotic move for Chuse, Chen Ting and others to do such a big thing. Can we help it?"
"Of course, as long as we ensure safety, it is natural for us to do some work."
Ning Zhiheng said this, raised his hand and looked at the time, and asked, "When did Gao Tao and the others leave?"
"According to our news, the time when the surveillance personnel were attacked was around 9:20 pm last night."
Ning Zhiheng heard this, smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "That is to say, the passenger ship will set off at around 10 o'clock last night. According to the time, even if the passenger ship has not arrived at the port, it should not be long before it arrives. So I think there is no need for us to take action on this matter. I will notify the Hong Kong side to investigate and there should be a result soon."
After saying that, he then ordered Luo Xingchao: "The impact of this matter is so great that the reaction between the Japanese and the pseudo-government must be very strong. You must pay attention to their reactions, especially on the 76th. Notify me as soon as possible if there is any news."
"Yes!" Luo Xingchao nodded and then turned around and left.
Ning Zhiheng also started moving immediately. He immediately asked Yi Huaan to investigate. After 10 o'clock last night, were there any passenger ships to Hong Kong at various terminals along the Huangpu River in the city?
These situations are easy to investigate. It didn't take long before Yi Huaan summarized the investigation and submitted it to Ning Zhiheng.
Ning Zhiheng looked carefully and quickly focused his attention on the name of one of the passenger ships.
Presidential number!
This is a passenger ship of an American company that left Hong Kong at 10:20 last night. The destination was in the United States and passed by Hong Kong halfway.
It must be this passenger ship. Ning Zhiheng thought to himself that the Japanese were still quite concerned about Western powers. Customs personnel inspected the passenger ships of foreign companies, especially American companies, and their safety was generally very small.
There were not many passenger ships to Hong Kong after 10 o'clock last night, and only this one had a foreign background. If Ning Zhiheng were Wan Mulin and Chen Ting, he would definitely choose this passenger ship.
He immediately called Yi Huaan over and ordered: "Send a newspaper to Hong Kong immediately, asking Shen Xiang and others to keep an eye on the US passenger ship President who arrived in Hong Kong. Gao Tao and the others are likely to be on this ship. They will disembark in Hong Kong, find out their whereabouts, and secretly protect them. If there is any abnormal situation, they can be rescued with arms. In short, try to ensure their safety!"
"Yes!" Yi Dong'an nodded and immediately drafted the draft and sent the newspaper. Fujiwara Company and Hong Kong's Fujiwara Branch, which is the Hong Kong Intelligence Team of the Shanghai Intelligence Department, can keep the telegram open for 24 hours, and the news will arrive in Hong Kong as soon as possible.
At 3:00 p.m. that day, Ning Zhiheng received a call from Hong Kong. Everything was as Ning Zhiheng judged. Gao Tao and his wife took the US company's President passenger ship two hours ago and got off the ship in Hong Kong. After being picked up, they entered a villa to hide. Everything went well!
At the same time, Li Zhiqun called Wu Shicai to his office and ordered him to wait for an opportunity to arrest Wan Mulin, a veteran of the Qing Gang.
Wu Shicai asked in surprise: "Director, are you saying that this is done by Wan Mulin?"
Li Zhiqun nodded slightly and said, "Thousands of this person are the ones. The Qing Gang in the Concession has always been in peace, but Wan Mulin returned to the Concession and something big happened.
Moreover, this time, Wan Mulin returned to the concession, which was much longer than before, but he had been back to Shanghai, but after selling two properties, he had no more noise. So why did he stay in Shanghai? I judged that it was very likely that he was planning the escape of Gao Tao and the others.
So I decided to arrest Wan Mulin immediately, pry open his mouth, and find out the whereabouts of Gao Tao and the others."
When Wu Shicai heard this, he hesitated for a moment, nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll prepare now, but Director, you and I are both disciples of the Qing Gang, and Wan Mulin is a veteran of the Qing Gang. According to seniority and qualifications, we are offending the situation. I'm afraid that it will be a bit bad!"
Li Zhiqun curled his lips and sneered: "You can still care about these things now? Our time is very tight. This time, such a big mistake has occurred. Not to mention the new government, even the Japanese are very dissatisfied with us. Therefore, the whereabouts of Gao Tao and the others must be found as soon as possible, and there may be a possibility of rescuing the situation.
Let’s talk about Wan Mulin and Yue Sheng behind him. We all know what their position is. We are not alone, so we can’t be restrained.
Therefore, we can’t wait any longer. Even if there is a trace of suspicion in Wan Mulin, we must arrest it and conduct a good trial!”
When Wu Shicai heard this, he nodded and nodded, "Yes, I will send someone to sneak into the French Concession to monitor Wan Mulin and find an opportunity to catch him back."
The French Concession is naturally not as difficult as the urban area. If you want to capture the Qing Gang veterans in the French Concession on No. 76, it is naturally very difficult. Wu Shicai must make some plans.
Late that night, the Operations Department of the Chongqing Military Control Bureau received the latest telegram from the Shanghai Intelligence Department. After receiving the telegram, Wei Liangbi, deputy director, received the telegram and checked the content, he knew that it was of great importance, so he rushed to the headquarters of the Military Control Bureau as soon as possible to report to the bureau's office in person.
In the office of the bureau, a knock sounded. Bian Ze, director of the Information Department, pushed the door and stepped forward. He came to the bureau's office a few steps and sent a message to the bureau's office.
"The telegram from Hong Kong, Gao Tao and the other two have arrived in Hong Kong successfully, and are currently under the protection of Yue Sheng."
