As soon as Minglou returned to his office, there was a knock on the door, and Ah Cheng opened the door and walked in.
"Brother, Aqiang and the others have already set off."
"Okay, send a report to Chongqing immediately and act as planned."
Before he finished speaking, Cheng shook his head and said, "Brother, I'm afraid you have to send this telegram yourself. I have to go to the Navy Club."
Minglou couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, but then he suddenly said: "Nan Zao Yunzi wants to see you?"
"...Yes." Acheng frowned and said, "Brother, do you think...she has begun to doubt us?"
"I'm anxious to see you so early, what do you think?"
"I think... she asked me to go there just to ask for directions, right?"
Minglou leaned back and said with a headache: "I hope so! There was a big explosion on the Sakura, and the special high school class was under great pressure. Even if Wang Jingwei suspended the investigation due to the situation, they would not do it easily.
It’s time to give up, and after so many days of investigation, the circle of suspicion has become smaller and smaller. I think... she probably wants to find a breakthrough from you. At this time, don’t take risks, do you understand? "
"clear!"
However, Minglou suddenly changed the subject again, "But even so, the bait still has to be placed, but it must be placed appropriately! Nanzo Yunzi likes to play with others, so you must let her think you are
If you always have the upper hand, you might as well pretend to be stupid, be a hindsight in front of her, and then act more impulsive and emotional to gain more of her trust."
"You mean to make her think that you are leading me by the nose and win her trust?"
"Well..." Minglou nodded slightly after hearing this, but then shook his head, "This is only half the purpose, what else?"
Acheng pondered for a moment, and then immediately understood Minglou's meaning, "...and let her be the obstacle that helps us clear other obstacles!"
It was only then that Minglou nodded with satisfaction, "Well... go ahead!"
…
"Brother...shouldn't we take a boat to Hankou? Why did we drive out of the city?" Seeing that the car he was riding in not only did not drive towards the dock, but instead drove out of the city in the opposite direction, Luo Hou finally did that
The heart that had just been relieved was once again in doubt, and he asked tremblingly.
Unexpectedly, Li Qiang glared at him and warned fiercely: "If you don't want me to seal your mouth, just shut it obediently. Do you hear me?"
As soon as these words came out, Luo Houcai was immediately frightened. He quickly covered his mouth with his hands and nodded obediently.
After a while, the car finally slowly drove into a very simple-looking military airport, and this was the predecessor of the famous Hongqiao Airport in later generations.
Before the car stopped, Luo Houcai was the first to jump out of the car. Then, like a child seeing his beloved toy, he looked here and there, circling the plane in front of him several times in one breath, eyes filled with excitement.
Full of curiosity.
However, he soon discovered a problem, "Huh? Why is this 'Iron Bird' different from the ones I have seen before?"
"What iron bird? This is called an airplane." Li Qiang corrected angrily.
"I know! But we all call it an iron bird, but this one is different from the one I've seen."
"Oh? Why is it different?"
"The iron birds I've seen all have red heads, and they can throw bombs and fire machine guns, but this one has a sealed bottom and no machine gun on its head. It's really strange!"
Hearing this, Li Qiang smiled, and then explained patiently: "I can't tell you're observing very carefully. The one you mentioned is a fighter jet, and this one is a transport plane, mainly used to transport supplies.
Just like in the army, aircraft are also divided into different types."
After Luo Houcai listened to Li Qiang's explanation very carefully, he nodded suddenly and said: "Brother, if you say that, I will understand! Then, brother, you brought me here, wouldn't it be..."
"Why, are you scared?" Before Na Luo Hou could finish speaking, Li Qiang interrupted him and said.
"How is that possible? Brother, I'm not bragging to you! I'm famous for being bold in the army, so why don't I just take a plane? What's there to be afraid of?"
"Really? Then I'll be relieved!" After saying that, he took out a brown paper bag from his bag and handed it over, "Take it!"
Luo Houcai was stunned when he saw this, "Brother, what are you doing?"
"Stop talking nonsense! Just take it if I tell you to. As for what it is for, you will know in a moment."
"Oh." Although Luo Houcai was still a little confused after hearing Li Qiang's words, he still took the paper bag obediently, and then followed Li Qiang with excitement on his face and boarded the transport plane.
Not long after the two boarded the plane, the plane began to taxi, and then the speed became faster and faster. After a while, with a roar of the engine, the plane left the ground and slowly climbed up.
The sky flies towards Hankou...
…
Half an hour later, in a VIP room of the Navy Club.
Acheng was making a report to Nan Zaoyunzi, "...according to the information currently available to our special committee, there are two reasons why the Sakura was blown up: First, the special train information was seriously leaked; second, underground munitions
Trading is rampant.”
Nanzo Yunzi nodded in agreement after hearing this, "There are only three channels for information leakage on the Sakura: the garrison military headquarters, the special high school class and No. 76..."
Before he finished speaking, Acheng immediately corrected him: "It's definitely not just these three places. There are also the new government offices, high-level railway managers, and officials and their relatives who participated in the peace conference. All of these people are possible."
"According to what you said, there are too many people involved in the leak. How are we going to investigate?"
"Director Nan Zao, you are testing me!" Acheng said with a smile, "If it were me, I would put the investigation on hold for now."
As soon as these words came out, Nanzo Yunzi narrowed his eyes and said, "Acheng-kun, running away is not a good habit. Besides, so many people died in the Sakura incident. I have to give an explanation to the families of the victims, right?"
"Director Nanzo, you misunderstood. My intention is not to give up the investigation of the Sakura incident, but to temporarily shift the focus of the investigation to the underground arms trade. This will not only prevent similar tragedies from happening again, but also
It has the effect of paralyzing those anti-Japanese elements, and when they think the limelight has passed, we will suddenly respond with a carbine and kill them by surprise!"
Hearing this, Nanzo Yunzi fell into silence. After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind and asked: "Even if we want to shift the focus of the investigation to the underground arms trade, where should we start?"
"I heard that there is a person who often goes to and from the arms black market in Suzhou and participates in buying and selling. Once he gets some information and handles, he takes the opportunity to make a fortune."
"Who is that person you are talking about?"
"Leader of the second team of Operation 76, Chen Liang!"
