Although Li Zhiqun is not a qualified politician, he can definitely be regarded as an excellent agent and has extremely keen insight into intelligence work. He just followed Cha Yutang's disappearance and quickly inferred several possibilities.

The first one is naturally that Phillips himself discovered someone following and surveillance, so he found a way to find the main messenger Cha Yutang, and finally took action to get rid of Cha Yutang and his men.

Judging from the signs described by Liu Jianzhi, this possibility is the greatest, otherwise the senior management of the concession would not have done so obviously, and there was not even a trace of concealment intention, which could be seen by those who are interested.

However, one thing made him feel suspicious. With his understanding of these foreigners, although these people were greedy, they were not so cruel in terms of means. If Phillips was really dealing with Cha Yutang, then his biggest possibility was to find an excuse to remove Cha Yutang from office and investigate, and arrest him and imprison him.

With Phillips' status in the public concession, it is not difficult to do this, and there is no need to kill people at all. Such decisive and decisive methods are like the tough style of Chongqing agents.

So Li Zhiqun just thought about it for a moment and thought of the second possibility. Phillips must have been involved. It is very likely that he first discovered the stalker and found out that Cha Yutang's target was the Shanghai Intelligence Department. So he contacted the Intelligence Department. The Shanghai Intelligence Department took action to get rid of Cha Yutang, and then Phillips came forward to suppress the impact of this matter to the minimum.

Of course, there is another possibility, which is to find out that the Shanghai Intelligence Department is tracking and surveillance of Cha Yutang, so he informed Phillips that the two sides cooperated to attack Cha Yutang.

No matter which possibility it is, the result is the same, that is, the Shanghai Intelligence Department has a great possibility of participating in it.

When talking about the Shanghai Intelligence Department, Li Zhiqun couldn't help but have a headache. This intelligence department has great magical powers and is simply omnipresent. Once they are involved, things will never be simple.

Li Zhiqun instinctively raised his vigilance. He felt that he should start to clarify the context from the source of the whole thing, and thoroughly figure out what was wrong, and eliminate all possibilities. He was also afraid that something was wrong at his agent headquarters again.

When Liu Jianzhi heard Li Zhiqun's inquiry, he quickly denied it firmly: "Director, during the period when you left, Feng Sinian has been detained alone in the backyard. The people who took care of him were all designated by you personally, and they were all those who arrested Feng Sinian in Nanjing. They never used outsiders. I can guarantee that no one could get in touch with him."

Speaking of this, he thought for a while and said again: "I didn't find anyone trying to get close to that yard. By the way, there was only Chief Mi. No, the Central Commission for Control agent who was arrested by Director Mi was later placed opposite the yard. However, the detention time was very short and he was sent to Nanjing not long after, but he had never contacted Feng Sinian."

After listening to Liu Jianzhi's narration, Li Zhiqun pondered for a long time. If what Liu Jianzhi said was true, he would be relieved. What he feared most was that there would be an insider in the agent headquarters.

A Hu Yunhe was released before, but several major operations were destroyed by him, and the personnel at the agent headquarters suffered heavy losses.

Later, another Xu Yongchang appeared, and even directly assassinated Wang Hanmin and Fu Shengyuan. The plan to wipe out the Beidi Military Control Station in one fell swoop. It is impossible to estimate how much the losses were.

Now Li Zhiqun’s most concerned about is the “insider”, so when something happened to Cha Yutang, the first thing he thought of was to check and correct himself first, and find problems from the inside first.

Li Zhiqun ordered again: "We can't take it lightly yet. Send people to investigate. Feng Sinian has been living in Shanghai before and is a broker who lives in the black market. You go to his original residence and the black market to investigate. Is anyone asking about Feng Sinian's situation recently? If so, it means that the problem lies with Feng Sinian, that is, it's within us. I must make sure that there is no problem in our team."

"Yes, I'll do it right away!" Liu Jianzhi nodded and retreated.

Li Zhiqun watched him leave, then he let out a sigh of relief, calmed down for a while, and thought carefully in his mind. Cha Yutang's sudden disappearance caught him off guard. His original intention to return to Shanghai and continue to investigate the Shanghai Intelligence Department was dashed.

However, Li Zhiqun knew that Cha Yutang had investigated for so long and did not have any clues. The only thing he could do now was to find these clues, and perhaps there was a glimmer of hope to continue tracing them.

Thinking of this, he picked up the phone and called out.

"Xingchao, come to me now!"

Soon, Luo Xingchao knocked in and said respectfully: "Director, you are looking for me!"

"Yeah! Let's sit down!" Li Zhiqun nodded, waved his hand to signal Luo Xingchao to sit down, and asked directly: "Xingchao, I heard that some time ago, Sheng Zhiyuan, chairman of the Shanghai West Chamber of Commerce, was assassinated by Chongqing agents in the concession. Did you deal with this matter?"

Luo Xingchao nodded and said, "I took over at the beginning. Sheng Zhiyuan was killed near Erma Road in the Public Concession. I received a notice from the Public Concession Police Office and went to claim the body and investigate the scene. The preliminary judgment was that it should be the agents of the Military Control Commission Shanghai Station. After that, we handed over with the police station, so I brought Sheng Zhiyuan's body back. However, as soon as I came back, Captain Wu asked to take over the case. His attitude was very tough, and I couldn't refuse, so I handed over the case to him!"

"This idiot Wu Shicai! That's because he was cheated of his wealth and was so anxious that he was red!" Li Zhiqun obviously didn't want to mention it anymore, and the focus of his question was not this.

He then asked, "Have you ever met with Inspector Cha Yutang, the Police Officer General Hua?"

Luo Xingchao nodded immediately and said, "I have seen it! It is the handover work carried out by Cha Yutang and me!"

Li Zhiqun hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Have Cha Yutang told you anything?"

Luo Xingchao was a little surprised. He looked at Li Zhiqun, as if he wanted to confirm the meaning of the words.

Seeing this, Li Zhiqun couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. It seemed that Cha Yutang did not mention clues to Luo Xingchao about the Shanghai Intelligence Department, so he simply asked directly: "Have he asked about my situation, or about the situations of Chongqing agents in the concession, especially the Shanghai Intelligence Department?"

Luo Xingchao immediately shook his head and said, "No, he just briefly introduced some of the situations about Sheng Zhiyuan. For example, Sheng Zhiyuan entered the public concession because of stock speculation. It was basically all official business. Finally, he said, "There are ten major cases done by Chongqing agents. I agree with his point of view, but I don't think it is the Shanghai Intelligence Department. Because the Shanghai Intelligence Department has a very strong purpose and never chooses targets for assassination at will, so I judge that this case should be done by the Military Affairs Bureau Shanghai Station."

Of course, Luo Xingchao cannot say that Cha Yutang asked him about Li Zhiqun’s whereabouts. This was abnormal and he would definitely be alert. At that time, Cha Yutang’s disappearance may contact him, so he must deny it and stay out of the matter.

Speaking of this, Luo Xingchao paused and asked with some uncertainty: "Before, Cha Yutang and I have never dealt with each other. Jiao Qian naturally doesn't speak in depth. He was quite cold. We said a few words and didn't continue to talk. However, I heard that the Inspector Cha had an accident a few days ago and seemed to have disappeared."

Li Zhiqun naturally believed Luo Xingchao absolutely. When he heard Luo Xingchao say this, he had to sigh and said, "Have you heard it too? It's really a disaster. Let me tell you the truth. Cha Yutang is actually ours."

"What? Cha Yutang is our person?" Luo Xingchao looked surprised and then slapped his high-high. "The position of Inspector General Hua is crucial. If Cha Yutang votes on us, then our activities in the concession will be much more convenient. Alas! What a pity!"

Li Zhiqun shook his head with a frustration. He was also heartbroken by this. In order to convince Cha Yutang, he finally fought for a lot of work he had done, but before he could play any role, this important piece was scrapped.

"Based on various signs, Cha Yutang's death should be related to Phillips, a military officer in the US consulate, and it also involved the Shanghai Intelligence Department of the Military Intelligence Department."

Li Zhiqun introduced the specific situation about this matter to Luo Xingchao. Anyway, Cha Yutang is dead now, so many things are not necessary to keep confidential. Finally, he said: "Zha Yutang has tracked and monitored Phillips for a long time before. I judged that he must have important clues in his hands. I want to find these clues, so I will leave this matter to you. What do you think?"

Luo Xingchao secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Li Zhiqun was really smart. He could accurately judge the truth of the matter in such a short time. If he really allowed him to investigate this way, the final development of the matter would be unpredictable. Fortunately, this work was handed over to himself.

However, he still looked embarrassed and explained in a low voice: "Director, our agent headquarters is not strong enough in the concession. This matter is quite difficult. Please give me more time."

"certainly!"

Seeing Luo Xingchao take on the task, Li Zhiqun immediately nodded in agreement. He trusted Luo Xingchao's ability very much. Besides, Luo Xingchao's first place was responsible for dealing with the Military Control Commission. It is also the most suitable thing to hand over this matter to Luo Xingchao.

Luo Xingchao was happy, but he still said, "Actually, Captain Wu is more suitable for this task, after all, he has more information."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zhiqun waved his hand and said, "Don't mention this guy anymore. It's really useless. Besides, he doesn't have time now. I have ordered him to raise funds as soon as possible and fill the big hole he poked, otherwise what will I take to Nanjing this time?"

Li Zhiqun was extremely disappointed with Wu Shicai because this guy's misconduct made all his deployment in Nanjing disrupted.

Luo Xingchao quickly said, "It's all my negligence. I didn't take care of this home well, which made you disappointed!"

"No, no, it's not your fault. You can't control him. I really didn't expect that he would dare to embezzle such a large sum of money. It's so charming. I believed him too much before!"
