Zuo Shaoqing understood that when it came to protecting the "Locust Tree", she had to take proactive actions and must not deal with it passively. [ ] Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous. She thought over and over again and decided to take the risk.
On the morning of this day, Zuo Shaoqing brought Liu Qiuyue into Zhao Minggui's office to analyze with the intelligence team who was the agent "Huaishu" lurking in the Ministry of National Defense.
Zhao Minggui looked at Zuo Shaoqing quietly, but his heart was extremely frightened. He is an extremely meticulous person. After Zuo Shaoqing discovered Liang Jicheng and tracked down the small building on Qinhuai Fourth Street, he had actually ruled out any interest in Zuo Shaoqing.
suspicion. But after the failure of the Qinhuai Fourth Street operation, he vaguely guessed that the Communist Party might have taken the risk of using Li Yunlin to help Zuo Shaoqing gain trust. Although this idea was extremely far-fetched and there was no evidence, in his consciousness, it was indeed
He had this idea. He just didn't dare to mention it to others.
Today, Zuo Shaoqing had to analyze the current intelligence with him to find out who was the "Sophora Tree" lurking in the Ministry of National Defense, which made the suspicion in his heart fluctuate again. But Zhao Minggui's shrewdness is that without
He will not tell anyone what he thinks until he has conclusive evidence. He knows what kind of person Zuo Shaoqing is. If he wants to make a breakthrough with her, he will make a fool of himself if he makes the slightest mistake.
Zhao Minggui smiled softly, "Young Master Zuo, the director's opinion is that we should analyze it together with Lao Cheng. I'll ask Lao Cheng too, maybe the analysis will be more thorough."
Zhao Minggui's opinion was exactly within Zuo Shaoqing's consideration. She said: "Okay, the second group is me and Qiuyue. Tell Lao Cheng, and even my sister, if we can find this locust tree."
Zuo Shaoqing's last words were beyond Zhao Minggui's expectation. But he still called Cheng Yunfa and asked him and You Shao to come together to study the situation about the "Locust Tree".
In this way, when the five people were sitting in Zhao Minggui's office, it could be said that they all had their own thoughts and speculated on each other.
Especially You Shaoqing's eyes, which almost appear on her sister's face. They hide suspicions in questions, and their eyes are sharp. In her heart, an idea gradually arises, wanting to expose her sister's true face. But now
, she didn’t want to tell anyone about this idea.
In addition to transferring the name "Sophora Tree" to Ye Gongjin, the Intelligence Office also transferred a set of information, which were secrets leaked from the Ministry of National Defense in recent years. However, it is not certain that most of the secrets have been leaked to the Communist Army. It is only speculated that they may have been leaked to the Communist Army.
Controlled by the Communist Army.
This situation is more troublesome. There are actually dozens of senior officials of the Ministry of National Defense who have access to these secrets. The five of them sat at the table and had to analyze it carefully, one by one. After a whole morning,
They gradually selected six people from dozens of senior officials. They were the Director of the Second Department of the Ministry of National Defense, the Director of the Operations Office of the Ministry of National Defense, the Secretary-General of the General Office of the Ministry of National Defense, the Director of the Staff Office of the Ministry of National Defense, the Chief of Staff of the Joint Logistics Command and
A general in the army headquarters holds the rank of senior staff officer.
Zuo Shaoqing is very cautious. She neither nominates nor excludes. She holds a pile of information in her hand and introduces it one by one, letting others make judgments and then agree.
Zhao Minggui took this short list and smiled at Zuo Shaoqing and Cheng Yunfa, "You two, don't you have any objections to this list?"
Cheng Yunfa said: "I feel that it should be there."
Zhao Minggui turned around and said, "Young Master Zuo, what about you?"
Zuo Shaoqing nodded, looking deeply at the people at the table, "I'm a little surprised. Except for the senior counselor at the Army Headquarters, these six people are all full-time department officials with the rank of general. I'm a little confused. Communist Party Agent
How many years would he have to lurk in the army to be promoted to this position?"
Hearing this, even Zhao Minggui was a little bit tongue-tied.
Zuo Shaoqing said softly: "Let me observe these few first. If nothing is right, we will check the others."
Zhao Minggui said: "Okay, let's do this for now. Then, let's divide the work between the two of us, and give each of these six people one share."
Zuo Shaoqing stretched out his head and said: "One group will be responsible for the first three, and we will be responsible for the last three."
You Shaoqing then tapped Cheng Yunfa behind his back, intending to ask him to make adverse choices.
Cheng Yunfa was reminded, and immediately took the list in his hand, raised his head and said, "Master Zuo, what do you mean? Why do you want to leave the director of the Second Department to us? Who doesn't know that the Second Department is our enemy, and we usually find him
I still can't find the fault, what should I do if he notices it?"
In the Ministry of National Defense, the Second Office is responsible for intelligence work. In theory, it should be in charge of the national intelligence work, but in fact all intelligence systems are dealing with him. People in the Second Office rely on the power in their hands to cause trouble for anyone who does not listen to him.
Zuo Shaoqing waved to Cheng Yunfa, "Well, you choose, the rest is mine."
Cheng Yunfa went through the list again and again, and finally said: "How about we take charge of the last three?"
Zuo Shaoqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This was exactly the result she wanted. Cheng Yunfa wanted to fight with her, but he was no match for her. She could only put Guo Chongmu under her surveillance first. What about the rest?
To protect his safety, we can only act according to circumstances.
After the meeting, Zuo Shaoqing returned to the office and asked Liu Qiuyue to arrange for people to monitor these three people.
"Qiuyue, you have to pay attention. These three people are our targets. Be careful not to let one group extend their hands into our territory. Ask the brothers below to observe carefully."
Liu Qiuyue said: "I understand, I will make arrangements right away."
Zuo Shaoqing knew in her heart that with the ability of a team, it was impossible to detect the "Locust Tree". What she had to guard against was that there were other people involved in the matter. The yellow maple forest at No. 9 Nanfu Street was her heart
A question. She was very suspicious of Huang Fenglin's true identity, but she didn't dare to arrange for Liu Qiuyue to find this person, so she could only observe in secret.
You Shaoqing returned to the office and sat down to think carefully. She had a feeling in her heart. She was not sure whether it was because she and Zuo Shaoqing were twin sisters. She could sometimes detect some of Zuo Shaoqing's thoughts.
Although this is very vague. I do have a vague feeling in my heart today that my sister Zuo Shaoqing has special attention to the senior officials of the Ministry of National Defense, or to the "locust tree" they are looking for. If there is a way to let the Ministry of National Defense
The appearance of the "Locust Tree" in it will surely expose her sister automatically. This is what she has in mind.
When lunch was approaching, You Shaoqing knocked on the door and entered the director's office. She wanted to discuss the possibility of this idea with Ye Gongjin.
Ye Gongjin was still as usual, with a gentle smile on his face, "You Shaoqing, sit down. Do you have any ideas again?" His eyes were sharp, and he had already sensed You Shaoqing's purpose.
Just a few minutes ago, Zhao Minggui reported to him the meeting of the three groups and the list of six people they initially selected. He was a little surprised. This list was almost exactly the same as the list he and Huang Fenglin discussed. The only thing
The only difference is that there is no senior general from the Army Headquarters on his list.
This situation gave Ye Gongjin a lot of doubts. Zuo Shaoqing participated in the selection of this list of six people. There are two possibilities. Either "Sophora Tree" is not in this list, or "Sophora Tree" is really here.
Among the six people..., is the "Locust Tree" there? This is really a troublesome thing.
"Director, there are two things now, and I want to connect them." You Shaoqing looked at Ye Gongjin and said softly: "One is the locust tree we are looking for. The other is the military meeting being held by the Ministry of National Defense.
I heard that the military meeting of the Ministry of National Defense is about to end."
Ye Gongjin nodded, "Yes, I heard about it too."
"So, after the military meeting of the Ministry of National Defense, I think there should be a resolution, or in other words, a strategic decision for Northeast China, right?"
Ye Gongjin nodded again, "That should be it. What's the matter?"
"I wonder if, in addition to this decision, we can make another fake decision to lure the Sophora japonica tree into action. In this way, we will find out who the Sophora japonica tree is."
"It's interesting," Ye Gongjin said with a smile on his face, "Young Master, please continue talking."
"Director, let's assume that my sister has a relationship with Huaishu. When she knows that we have discovered who Huaishu is, do you think she will take action? As long as she takes action, she will be exposed, right?"
Ye Gongjin had a gentle smile on his face, but he was also a little surprised. This was very similar to the plan he discussed with Huang Fenglin. There was only one difference. Young Master You's purpose was to discover Zuo Shaoqing through the locust tree. And his and Huang Fenglin's purpose was
, discovered Sophora spp. through Zuo Shaoqing. The purpose was different. This determined that she could only be You Shaoqing who was impersonated, and could only be an agent with the rank of major. And she was the superior Secrecy Bureau agent.
The Director of the Second Division is definitely worthy of the general star on his collar badge.
Ye Gongjin was in a good mood when he thought of this. The smile on his face became gentler, "Young Master Right, I can see that you have used your brain. Very good, very good. I will seriously consider your suggestion. Don't put it before I make a decision.
Tell anyone what you think, okay?"
You Shaoqing's eyes swirled on Ye Gongjin's face. She understood that the conversation was over and her suggestions had not been adopted. She stood up silently, saluted and left the office.
As soon as You Shaoqing went out, the fire in her heart was already rising. She understood that after the failure of the Qinhuai Fourth Street operation, Ye Gongjin's suspicion of her increased a lot, so he sent people to follow her. At least so far, this suspicion is still there
It didn't go away. She felt like she had been stabbed in the chest in pain.
Back in the office, You Shaoqing sat down at the table, feeling so uncomfortable that he could not speak.
Cheng Yunfa turned his head and said: "Young Master, where have you gone? I was about to discuss arranging surveillance with you, but I searched around and couldn't find you."
You Shaoqing raised his voice and said: "Don't look for me! Staring at me from morning to night is not enough! Where else can I go! I will sit here every day from now on and never go anywhere, okay?"
Cheng Yunfa was completely confused, and he felt angry because of her prodding, "Hey, Mr. Right, have you taken gunpowder or something? Why are you so angry? Who is watching you? I'm full!"
You Shaoqing thought for a while, Cheng Yunfa couldn't store anything on his face, and kept everything in his eyes. If he sent someone to monitor him, he would definitely not be able to hide from his own eyes. Besides, there are so many people in the team, what is everyone doing?
Work is basically arranged by herself, and it is unlikely that anyone will monitor her. Zuo Shaoqing also told her that she will not monitor herself. Based on her feeling, she believes that her sister is telling the truth. Besides, her sister has no intention of monitoring her.
Meaning. Then, who else would spy on herself? This was something she couldn't figure out.
She turned back to Cheng Yunfa and said, "Old Cheng, I'm sorry. I was angry and took it out on you."
"Who, who will make you angry?"
"Don't ask, I don't want to talk. Forget it, let's talk about arranging people."
However, the anger in You Shaoqing's stomach did not go away. It continued until night, and he became angry with his sister again.
