At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, Lao Pan, the chief secretary of the bureau headquarters, called Ye Gongjin.【】
He said on the phone: "Gong Jin, please go to the director. Go now."
Ye Gongjin asked: "Old Pan, tell me what it might be?"
Lao Pan said with a smile: "Maybe it's mainly about work, and I may have to explain it to you. In addition, it's about Hou Lianhai. I believe you are almost ready."
Ye Gongjin put down the phone and felt troubled again. Whether to let Hou Lianhai go or not was really a question. He took another look at the report that Zuo Shaoqing gave him, and finally put it down.
He squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then placed the report in the middle of his desk with a paperweight on it. He gritted his teeth and turned around and left the office.
Director Mao's office was also on the second floor, not far from his office. No matter how slowly Ye Gongjin walked, he would arrive in just one minute. He knocked on the door carefully, and when he heard the voice "Please come in" from inside, he opened the door and left.
Go in.
Director Mao sat behind his desk, put down the things in his hands, and nodded to the chair opposite, gesturing for him to sit down. There was a peaceful smile on his face. This made Ye Gongjin feel a little calmer.
"Gong Jin," Director Mao said in a calm tone: "I've been a little busier at work recently and have a lot of things to do. I came to you to ask you to sort out the priorities and grasp the current focus." At this point, Director Mao stopped.
He came down and didn't speak for a while. He shook his head, as if he wanted to get rid of his troubles, "Now, the Ministry of National Defense is having a meeting. It has been held for a few days, but the combat plan for the Northeast is still not out. Northeast, Northeast, Northeast, Northeast.
It’s really difficult to deal with it now. The chairman of the committee is also undecided, and the senior officials are even arguing endlessly, which is very frustrating.”
Ye Gongjin nodded quickly, "Yes. I heard a little bit of this too."
"How the war in the Northeast is fought is not our concern. However, the strategic decision-making regarding the Northeast has not been made. This itself is top secret information. I think you also understand this."
"Yes, yes, I understand." Ye Gongjin nodded repeatedly.
"What I want to remind you today is about the security of this meeting. You must be responsible for it, and no leaks will occur. In the past, our major combat plans were blocked by the Communist Army not long after they were released.
Take control. This time, these things will never be allowed to happen. It is related to the survival of Northeast China. I think you also understand this."
"Yes, I understand. I will make arrangements when I get back and make sure they are strict."
"Very good." At this point, Director Mao raised his head and smiled at Ye Gongjin, "There is another thing, about Hou Lianhai. Have you compiled your report?"
Ye Gongjin said "ouch" and looked at Director Mao in shock, "I'm sorry, Director, I was a little negligent in this matter and didn't supervise it. Please allow me to make a phone call and ask for more information."
The smile on Director Mao's face was still there, but there was a sharp light in his eyes, and he nodded imperceptibly.
Ye Gongjin leaned over and picked up the phone on the table, called He Junjie, and said with a hint of urgency: "Junjie, regarding the official from the Ministry of Justice, I have left it to Mr. Zuo. You should go to her immediately to urge her. If it has already been
Once it's done, you can send it to the director's office immediately. Hurry, I'll be waiting here."
Ye Gongjin put down the phone and bowed to Director Mao again, "I'm sorry, Director, I will pay attention next time."
When He Junjie received the call, he immediately went to Zuo Shaoqing's office without thinking much.
Unexpectedly, when Zuo Shaoqing heard his question, he immediately opened his eyes and said, "Old He, I have already submitted that report to the director of the department, in person. You go and ask the director of the department."
He Junjie left the office and realized that there was something fishy about this matter. He was the roundworm in Ye Gongjin's belly. After thinking about it, he had already guessed it. He immediately went to the director's office. He had the key to the door.
, hurriedly opened the door, walked to the desk, and saw the report placed in the middle of the desk with a paperweight on top, which made him understand even more. He picked up the report and walked out.
He Junjie walked quickly through the corridor, knocked on the door and entered the director's office. He saluted the director first, then turned to Ye Gongjin, and said in a clear voice: "Reporting Director, Zuo Shaoqing of the second team has just completed this report and is preparing to submit it to you.
.I sent it directly. This is the report."
Ye Gongjin took the report and nodded, "Go ahead."
Ye Gongjin turned around and bowed to Director Mao again, with a very embarrassed look on his face, and said softly: "I'm sorry Director, this is my dereliction of duty. I didn't supervise. I hope nothing happened."
He did not know the content of the report, so he quickly took out a pen from his pocket and wrote in the "Director's Approval Opinions" column on the "Approval" page of the report: Submit to Director Mao for review. Signature: Ye Gongjin. Date:
Today's day.
After Ye Gongjin signed the opinions, he stood up quickly, bent over, and presented the report to Director Mao with both hands.
The smile on Director Mao's face has disappeared. It's not because Ye Gongjin was late in submitting the report, but because there was another purpose in his series of small actions.
He took the report and flipped through a few pages, and soon turned to the last page. As soon as the final suggestion was "cancel imprisonment and restore personal freedom", fire was already coming out of his eyes. He gave Ye Gongjin a hard look.
.
But at this time, Ye Gongjin still maintained the same posture as when he apologized just now, with his buttocks only halfway up, his hands still on his knees, and his head half lowered. Therefore, Director Mao, who could kill someone with a glance, did not criticize him.
effect.
This Director Mao, Mao Renfeng, was born in 1818, and his original name was Mao Shanyu. He was a fourth-level student in Huangpu, but he did not graduate, so he was not recognized. He only entered the military command in 1934, and was not the "tenth class" when Dai Li started his career.
He was a member of the "People's Group". Within the bureau headquarters, his positions were only secretary and chief secretary. He was promoted to deputy director only after Dai Li's death. He was a person who had never been a stationmaster in the field or a division director in the interior.
But he was able to rise through the ranks and ascend to the position of director. He relied on his deep eyes and his ability to see through people's hearts. He also relied on his scheming but hiding it deeply. There is also the motto he hides in his heart: "Be patient, wait, and be ruthless."
The Three-Character Sutra.
How could Ye Gongjin's little move be hidden from his eyes? He had already known Ye Gongjin thoroughly. Ye Gongjin's idea was just to express that if the wrong person was released today, he hoped that the director would not blame him in the future, because he did not know that his subordinates had reported
What is the suggestion.
Such a trivial skill, such a shallow ability, is second to none. The key is, as a subordinate, but you can't share the worries of the superior, or block the trouble for the superior, what use do I want you to do!
This is a taboo for being a subordinate, how could Ye Gongjin not understand. But there is Metz behind him, so he has to do this!
At this time, Mao Renfeng had murderous intentions towards Ye Gongjin. But not now, now is not the time. Director Mao knows that he can only "endure" now, and he still needs to "wait" for a while, what will be the final result? If the situation is not
OK, he will be cruel to you without any hesitation.
A few months later, the Hou Lianhai incident broke out. On one side was Mrs. Chiang, a senior military official, and Director Mao, who was supported by a large financial group. They secretly eliminated dissidents. One of them was Ye Gongjin. But on Ye Gongjin's side there were Americans, Mr. Jiang, and Guangxi clique.
support. On the surface, this secret fight was aimed at killing Ye Gongjin, but the core target was for Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. However, in this secret fight, the two young ministers on the left and right were involved, creating many conflicts.
Accident.
Officers, please take your time.
Director Mao didn't take Ye Gongjin seriously. He was just a ball of clay in his hands. He could be squeezed as much as he wanted. Director Mao was worried about the changes within the party and the army. All the signs were already obvious. He really didn't want to
Letting Hou Lianhai go would be a disaster. But Ye Gongjin refused to stand in his way. And because of the Americans, a few high-ranking military officials, and public opinion, he couldn't express his negative opinions. Then, he had no choice but to let him go.
Director Mao picked up the pen on the table, quickly marked "Agree" on the "Approval" page and signed his name. He said coldly to Ye Gongjin: "You can go." After saying that, he lowered his head and went to file.
He refused to look at him again.
Ye Gongjin stood up, saluted, and walked out of the office quietly.
When he got outside the door, he felt the cool breeze blowing on his face. His back was already soaked with sweat.
He has sensed the danger and is frightened by it. He hopes that the Americans will support him.
A few days later, Ye Gongjin learned that Hou Lianhai had been released not long after this report was sent. What made him hate was that several senior military officials picked him up outside the gate of Xufu Lane and held a banquet for him to calm his shock. The next day
, this Hou Lianhai disappeared, and no one knew his traces.
After a while, he realized how powerful Hou Lianhai's activities were. He actually colluded with some senior military officials and blatantly disobeyed military orders! The government and the army were thrown into chaos, and a situation shocked the whole country.
The results come.
It was only at this time that Ye Gongjin felt regretful. He should have imprisoned Hou Lianhai until he died. Only then did he hate the Americans. Americans talk about democracy and human rights, but in fact they are full of male thieves and female prostitutes. They
What he has always done is to harm the governments of other countries. This time, he harmed the Republic of China government even more miserably. Damn Metz, he also harmed him miserably!
These are all things that will happen later. Let’s do it now.
On the day when Ye Gongjin submitted the report about Hou Lianhai to Director Mao, shortly after going to work in the afternoon, the director of the Intelligence Division walked into Ye Gongjin's office.
The head of the Intelligence Department was lean, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and always had a sinister smile on his face. He took something out of his bag and placed it in front of Ye Gongjin. It was a walnut for playing with.
It had been rubbed by human hands until it was smooth and smooth. The director of the intelligence department smiled mysteriously at Ye Gongjin. He opened the walnut and took out a roll of microfilm.
Ye Gongjin was stunned. He had actually guessed what this meant. There was probably a piece of information in the film that had been leaked.
The director of the intelligence department smiled and said: "Gong Jin, do you know what's in this?"
Ye Gongjin looked at him without saying a word. The director of the intelligence department took out a pile of enlarged photos from his bag and placed them in front of Ye Gongjin. Ye Gongjin was shocked when he saw the content on the first photo. It was a report to the Ministry of National Defense.
Long top secret document.
The director of the intelligence department said: "The person who leaked this information can only be a high-level official of the Ministry of National Defense, a senior general. Gong Jin, I have reliable information. I have placed a senior agent in the Ministry of National Defense, and he has a very high status."
. He has a code name called Huaishu. I have reported this matter to the director, and the director appointed you to be responsible for this matter. Your brother must work hard to find him."
Ye Gongjin sent away the director of the intelligence department. He sat alone in the office and thought for an hour. After confirming that he had considered it thoroughly, he notified He Junjie to convene an emergency working meeting of the second branch.
"Everyone, two things." Ye Gongjin looked around the officers at the conference table and said seriously: "First, the Ministry of National Defense is having a meeting recently to discuss the war in Northeast China. This is the most important meeting at present. Director Mao specially told me
, we must do a good job in security and protection. Yunfa and Zuo Shao must arrange personnel and do a good job in meeting security. Everything must be checked and no loopholes should appear. Whoever makes a problem will be severely punished."
Cheng Yunfa and Zuo Shaoqing both nodded to express their understanding.
"In addition, there is another matter that is more serious. We have received reliable information that there is indeed an agent who has infiltrated the Ministry of National Defense and is in a high position and leaked a lot of our important information. His code name is Huaishu."
As soon as she heard this code name, Zuo Shaoqing immediately became nervous. She realized that the most dangerous situation had finally appeared. She must concentrate her energy and go all out now.
Ye Gongjin put a smooth walnut on the table and said, "Come on, please. This is the tool used by Communist Party agents to transmit information. According to reports, we are interested in intercepting this information. A businessman was inspected at the Anqing pier.
, holding two walnuts like this in his hand. One of our officers became interested in these walnuts and asked for one. The businessman actually said that these were ordinary walnuts and were worthless. He threw them into the river casually. The officer was confused.
When they had doubts, they sent people down to the river to salvage it. It turned out that the walnut actually contained a microfilm. The document captured on the film turned out to be a top-secret document submitted by the Ministry of National Defense to the Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress!"
Zuo Shaoqing immediately understood that the traffic line below Zhang Yalan could no longer be used and must be replaced as soon as possible.
When Ye Gongjin said this, he couldn't help but raise his voice, "This is our dereliction of duty, a serious dereliction of duty! After the Intelligence Department discovered this situation, it conducted an investigation into all leaks in recent years. After preliminary analysis, this agent worked for at least a year and
A large amount of information was leaked. And we didn’t know anything about it! Are we all doing it for free? After the meeting, Yunfa, Zuo Shao, and Minggui, the three of you, analyze the situation carefully and gradually narrow down the scope.
This person must be found! He must be found!”
Zuo Shaoqing looked at Ye Gongjin and was already thinking about countermeasures. She turned around and saw her sister's scrutinizing eyes. She couldn't help but think that this sister was still her opponent, so she must not be careless.
