He is also good at treating his coolies. If anyone is in trouble and finds him, as long as it is not caused by smoking, gambling or going to a brothel, he will help.
People in Shandong live single lives and have a good reputation, which gave Chu Lingyun a sense of familiarity.
Gu Cheng is a boss and his income is much higher than that of a coolie. He lives near the dock. Although it is a bungalow, it has a large yard and has side rooms on both sides besides the main hall.
This kind of house is enough for a family of six.
Chu Lingyun didn't inquire too much. He simply chatted with a few people for a while and then left. If he asked too many questions, people here might tip off Gu Cheng. After all, he had good connections here.
In fact, there is no need to keep asking, Chu Lingyun also knows that this Gu Cheng has a big problem.
He lives alone, and there is no one else up there, so where does the old man come from?
"Team leader, look for me."
At a teahouse outside the pier, Chu Lingyun waited for more than an hour before Loach came in a hurry.
It was the surveillance point he called to notify. When Ni Loach returned, he asked him to come over immediately.
"Go check this Gu Cheng yourself. Find out everything about him as soon as possible. Arrange two other people to pretend to be coolies and find a way to get close to Gu Cheng."
Chu Lingyun told Ni Loach not to monitor Gu Cheng the way he monitored Zhang Bai.
Zhang Bai is just a pedicurist, so it is easy to monitor him. Gu Cheng is the leader, with hundreds of subordinates. With so many people around him, they may discover him if he is not paying attention during surveillance.
Since Gu Cheng treats the coolies well, once he discovers that someone is following and monitoring their leader, he will definitely report it, and it will be easy to alert the enemy.
Cannot monitor, can only approach.
"Yes, team leader, I'll do it right away."
Loach nodded in agreement. He was good at gathering information, so it was not difficult to find someone to pretend to be a coolie.
In addition to the students from the school, the four groups they moved were all selected from the military. Many of them had done farm work and had dark skin.
Find two skinny guys to dress up, and they can be treated as coolies who have escaped from famine.
Back in the office, Chu Lingyun took out Gu Cheng's monitoring record again and read it carefully.
He didn't chat much with Zhang Bai, and it sounded like ordinary things. If Chu Lingyun wasn't good at discovering subtle differences, he might have regarded him as a real old customer.
The old man does not exist, so that must be an allusion to something, and the South House they mentioned when chatting also does not exist.
The house he lives in faces north and south, with only the door and wall on the south side.
What does a character and a name refer to? Chu Lingyun thought slowly.
Gu Cheng was lurking at the dock, and the scope of the information he gathered was most likely related to the dock.
Chu Lingyun walked to the wall and looked at the map. Soon, his eyes looked towards the south bank above.
There is a marine police wharf there, and some marine police boats are usually docked there. As the capital of Nanjing, it is impossible for such an important water area as the Yangtze River to be without some protection.
"Should the Marine Police Pier be renovated?"
Chu Lingyun said to himself, and he remembered the spy he caught in Wuhan. He also found out about the dock expansion. At that time, many people didn't know about it, so he reported it to his superior.
"Wang Sheng, please help me find out if there are any renovation plans for the Yangtze River Marine Police General Administration's dock recently."
Chu Lingyun called Wang Sheng. Now that the three kings under him are not here, Wang Sheng can only ask Wang Sheng first. He is a policeman after all, so it is more convenient to inquire about such things.
In less than half an hour, Wang Sheng called back: "Mr. Chu, I asked a director of the Marine Police General Administration. According to him, someone from the Yangtze River Marine Police General Administration proposed to renovate the Marine Police Wharf and add more berths, but
Because the opinions are not unanimous, it has been temporarily shelved."
If that is the case, there is no need to wait for the results of Ni Loach's investigation. It is basically certain that Gu Cheng is a spy and Zhang Bai's offline.
These Japanese spies are really powerful. Even their intelligence department didn't know that a dock boss was able to find out. I don't know how much useful information they have found in Nanjing over the years.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. I'll come back to you if anything happens."
Chu Lingyun hung up the phone and looked through the information investigated by Ni Loach again.
The telegraph operator Ma Jingyuan goes to see Zhang Bai most often, basically every month, and the time is not fixed. Sometimes he goes once every half a month, and the shortest interval is three days.
Getting pedicures twice in three days must be something very important.
The time when Gu Cheng goes to see Zhang Bai is quite stable, basically once a month. According to the records in the past three years, the shortest one is twenty-five days, and the longest one is thirty-eight days.
After reading the information, Chu Lingyun tapped her fingers on the desktop and thought quickly in her mind.
Now keeping an eye on Zhang Bai, they have discovered his operator Ma Jingyuan and a downline Gu Cheng.
According to Wuhan's experience, a Japanese spy intelligence team has about five to six people, consisting of a team leader and four intelligence agents. Some intelligence team leaders send reports by themselves, and some teams have dedicated operators.
Nanjing is not Wuhan. The Japanese spies here have been lurking for longer, and Zhang Bai may have been offline even more.
There is also Kawamoto Shouta. According to his explanation, he is not a member of Zhang Bai's group, but applied to Nanjing on his own initiative. Zhang Bai will temporarily connect him, and he received the certificate from the Super High School Headquarters from Zhang Bai.
Instructions.
Excluding Taro Kawamoto, Zhang Bai should have at least three intelligence agents hidden. The names of these intelligence agents are probably in the information, but they have not been found out yet.
At present, the direction of investigation is not wrong.
Zhang Bai is the leader of this intelligence team, but the way he contacts the intelligence agents is not through dead mail, but in person.
But this way of meeting is really not bad.
In addition, Zhang Bai had ten years of lurking experience. No one could have imagined that this honest pedicure man who had been repairing people's feet for ten years would be a Japanese agent.
Two days later, Loach returned to the office again and reported: "Team leader, people have been sent in, but now they can only do some menial work, and they can't contact Gu Cheng yet."
"It's okay if you can't reach them. Just keep an eye on them and don't let Gu Cheng escape."
Chu Lingyun understands the difficulty of keeping an eye on people like Gu Cheng. There are too many people around him. Without understanding, he can't even bribe his coolies.
Moreover, those coolies are not agents. If they are asked to monitor a latent agent, they will most likely expose themselves.
"I checked Gu Cheng, this guy is not simple."
Loach continued: "He is familiar with the Director and Deputy Director of the Pier Management Office, as well as the Marine Police Corps. At least a few Directors and a Deputy Director there have a good relationship with him. It is said that he has even been patrolled by the Marine Police.
We took the boat and strolled along the river several times."
