Chapter 1176 The parties react
After explaining the matter, Ning Zhiheng waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go back and prepare, Chen Xiang stayed for a while!"
Ji Hongyi and Zuo Qiang bowed and left only Chen Xiang. He knew that the director must have an important task to explain, so he bowed and waited quietly for Ning Zhiheng's instructions.
Ning Zhiheng asked: "How much do you know about the local gang Fuxingshan for so long?"
"Fuxing Mountain?"
Chen Xiang recalled a little in his mind and then said: "Now the most common halls in Hong Kong are the halls with the word "he". There are not many halls with the word "fu". Any halls with the word "fu" are the earliest gang organizations established in Hong Kong. Fuxingshan is one of them. It is said that it was the organization responsible for raising funds for Hongmen. Now it is relatively low-key and generally does not participate in gang activities. However, they are well organized and have strong financial resources, and have a high status in Hongmen."
The largest gang organizations in China are nothing more than the Hongmen, Qing Gang, and Pao Ge Association. Among them, Pao Ge Association is mainly entrenched in southwestern China, mainly in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and other places.
The Qing Gang is mainly concentrated in East China, especially in Shanghai, and is full of the Qing Gang's sphere of influence.
But the Hongmen is different. Although it has a considerable relationship with the Qing Gang and has the saying "red flowers and green leaves, Qing Hong family!", it has long surpassed the Qing Gang in terms of scale, so it is often said in the world that "the Qing Gang is one line, and the Hongmen is a large area."
Moreover, the two are very different in essence. First of all, the Qing Gang does not have a clear political proposition. They were originally composed of civilians who only wanted food and clothing. At the beginning, they were just to gather together to keep warm and gain room for survival.
However, the Hongmen took the anti-Qing and restoring the Ming Dynasty as its mission. The founders were all former Ming people and had ambitions, which determined that the Hongmen's structure was much greater than that of the Qing Gang, and the development potential was not comparable to that of the Qing Gang.
So in modern times, the South China region and Hong Kong, especially the overseas Chinese gangs were all Hongmen organizations, and even the former leader of the Kuomintang had the identity of overseas Hongmen disciples. It is conceivable that the influence of the Hongmen is so great.
Today, Hong Kong gangs belong to the branch of the Hongmen branch, and the character Fu has the longest history. It has developed to this day and has mostly disappeared. Fuxingshan is one of the only time-honored brands.
"Have you heard of Wu Chenghong, the leader of Fuxing Mountain?"
"I have heard that this person is qualified and has a high prestige in various halls in Hong Kong. He is a famous big shot with a unique status and a strong voice. He has to give him face in all aspects.
And I heard that he is also an old member of the Tongmenghui. He made a lot of contributions to the party and the country at the beginning, and has close ties with many domestic politicians. He is a personal figure!"
As expected, Ning Zhiheng nodded secretly. The world is chaotic. With only Yong Feng, a woman, no matter how smart and capable she is, how could she control such a big situation and achieve such success?
Not to mention Yong Feng, behind every top intelligence dealer in the intelligence market, no one has his own background and power support, and no one is easy to do.
Yong Feng finally took advantage of his father's power. As for whether Wu Chenghong was involved, and whether there were other forces behind him? That's unknown.
Ning Zhiheng ordered: "I heard that it is not enough. I secretly investigate Wu Chenghong's background and relationship network, with the focus on the connection between the country and South China. The more detailed the better, especially her daughter Wu Yuanying."
"Wu Yuanying?" Chen Xiang looked at Ning Zhiheng in confusion.
"Yes, this woman has an extraordinary identity, she is Yong Feng." Ning Zhiheng said.
"What, Wu Yuanying is Yong Feng?" Chen Xiang said in surprise.
"I plan to get in touch in the future and see if this person can be used by us." Ning Zhiheng nodded and said surely.
"Yes, I understand!" Chen Xiang nodded and took the order.
"Remember, the secret to this matter, Yong Feng's identity is limited to you and must not be disclosed."
"Please rest assured!" Chen Xiang nodded solemnly.
At the gate of the Hong Kong Shipping Company, Shandora was walking out with a team of intelligence personnel. The group got into the car. Shandora leaned in the back seat and couldn't help but look depressed. She closed her eyes slightly and thought carefully about what was happening in her mind.
The engine drawings were stored in the safe with her own eyes. It was the garrison and the intelligence department's location, with guards everywhere, and the guards were strongly guarded, so it was impossible for outsiders to enter.
Moreover, the safe is the most advanced style. Without passwords and keys, it is impossible to open unless it is a matter of violence.
So Shandora is sure that the engine drawings must have been taken away by Scott himself, but why did Scott do this?
Of course, they had other intentions. This was obviously because Scott custodians and now he suddenly disappeared. All this shows that something was wrong with Scott himself.
Unexpectedly, the person whom he relied on as his right-hand assistant would be an insider.
But if Scott is really an insider, there is no need to do so obviously. According to the investigation just now, Scott rushed to the shipping company early in the morning and booked twenty tickets to London. In other words, he was preparing to escort his team and drawings and film back to London. If he really absconded, there was no need to book tickets again.
Furthermore, even if you want to steal the drawings, there is no need to take away the original microfilm. You only need to copy one copy and take away the replica. After all, the original film is kept by Scott himself, and it is not difficult to copy one copy. In this way, why should you take away the original film and expose yourself?
All this is hard to explain. Shandora becomes more and more confused the more she thinks. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashes in her mind, copying microfilm?
Yes, there is also a possibility that Scott did not intend to escape with the drawings and film. He did not make sense to do so. Maybe he just brought the original film to copy it, but an emergency occurred. His disappearance was done on purpose by someone, not Scott himself.
"Stop!" Shandora suddenly shouted, braked and the vehicle stopped abruptly.
"Let's go to the police station."
The next day, the garrison and police departments on Hong Kong Island launched a dragnet search on the island. The intensity was so strong that all well-informed forces moved to hear the news. They quickly figured out the situation. A British intelligence officer disappeared, so he naturally thought of the drawings and film.
In Yue Mansion, Yue Sheng explained the news he received in detail to Jiang Tianhe.
"As far as I know, someone touched the dock the night before yesterday and tried to find the drawings, but was still arrested by the British. Then the British intelligence officer Scott disappeared. All signs indicate that the British seemed to have made progress, but there was a mistake in the middle. Now both black and white are pursuing the traces of the intelligence officer. The British were red in an anxious manner. I judged that the drawings were likely to be on this intelligence officer."
Jiang Tianhe was silent for a moment and asked, "Brother Yue Sheng, do you think Scott's disappearance? Did someone take the initiative to take action after hearing the news?"
"It is possible, the biggest possibility is the Japanese. But there is no exact information. I will think of a solution. Now the British have mobilized all the police departments, and there are some friends of me there, which are just right for use. Whenever there is news, I will notify me."
"I'm afraid that the news will be lagging behind, and the Japanese have already succeeded." Jiang Tianhe said worriedly.
"Tianhe, you must also understand me. After all, the British have the final say in Hong Kong. Their advantages are too great. We can only observe secretly and wait for the opportunity to take action."
Of course, Jiang Tianhe knew the current situation. He nodded and said, "The same thing is true. Planning is based on people and things are based on heaven. Let's do our best!"
At the Japanese Consulate, Hidehiko Suzuki had already received the same news, and he walked around the office anxiously.
At this time, Harada Takao pushed the door open, looked at Hidehiko Suzuki, and asked, "Suzuki, what happened? My subordinates found that there were many strange faces outside the consulate, and the British no longer covered up now."
"General, this is true, but it is because of the drawings." said Hidehiko Suzuki.
He told the situation to Gango Harada, then looked helpless, "Now the British think it was our move and the restrictions on us are tighter, but our people are all staring at by the British and have no chance at all. Besides, they have not received any news. I really can't figure out the situation."
Gango Harada thought for a while and said, "It seems that our previous judgment was correct. There have been third-party forces involved in it. These people have disrupted the British's operations on the Notting cruise ship, and now they have directly attacked the British intelligence officers, and have sabotaged the British twice in succession. I estimate that the drawings are likely to have fallen into their hands."
"I think so too, it really corresponds to the Chinese saying, 'The mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind'. The British plotted against us, but some people were staring at them. Maybe it was American or Chinese, but it was just a pain for us. The news was blocked and lagging behind, and it was difficult to respond in time. It was really powerful and too passive!"
The outside world was in turmoil, and all forces stretched out their tentacles to inquire about the news everywhere. Yong Feng naturally learned everything. Scott's disappearance made her feel unstable and uneasy.
Scott is a mole she spent a lot of energy and money to develop. Over the years, most of the intelligence about the British side was from Scott. He is one of the most valuable intelligence officers in Yong Feng's hands. His disappearance made Yong Feng heartbroken.
More importantly, this time, the engine drawings were all about Scott. Now something happened. The 500,000 US dollars that was about to be obtained slipped away from his hands. If he was unable to touch him, Yong Feng felt that his heart was bleeding even if he thought about it.
"Miss, now our channels are cut off and we can't negotiate this business with the Chongqing government. Do you still need to meet them?" Nie Xin asked in a low voice.
"See!" Yong Feng nodded and said. At this moment, Mr. Lin asked for a meeting again and said that there was important information to be traded, which made Yong Feng full of curiosity.
"This Mr. Lin is our big financial backer and can't afford to offend him. Besides, this time they have information to sell it to us. I want to see what important news is."
