"The Intelligence Department is short of people, very short of people!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Ningyu did not refute, but gave Gu Xiaomeng a look with interest, indicating for her to continue speaking.
"If I'm not wrong, the one who just came in must be your most capable clerk, right? Otherwise, she wouldn't have access to the top-secret code. It's a pity... her business ability is not outstanding.
, Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been reprimanded in your office for so long just because of a secret message.”
"Really?" Li Ningyu replied calmly, "Then you have stayed in my office for nine minutes and thirty-six seconds. Have you been scolded by me during this time?"
"I……"
"Gu Xiaomeng, you are too self-righteous. Couldn't I be training her in business?"
Unexpectedly, these words made Gu Xiaomeng seize the opportunity to fight back, and said with a smile: "Geniuses will not waste time on mediocrity! What's more, the smell on her nails has not dissipated! It should be one or two
I just did it a few days ago, and during that time, Section Chief, you were still on the code ship. It takes at least three or four hours to do this kind of nails. In other words, she sneaked out to do it while her superiors were away.
With her work quality, she shouldn't be worthy of your cultivation, right?"
"At least I trust her."
"Section Chief, you lied again. In your opinion, she is not trusted at all, nor is she worthy of being trusted. I came here for the first time with a gift in my hand. Logically speaking, I should be regarded as your guest, Chief, but she treats your
The guest doesn't have the slightest courtesy. She probably doesn't respect you very much. What's more, she has a bad habit of prying into your privacy, so I'm sure, Sister Yu, you will never trust this kind of person."
"Prying into my privacy? Gu Xiaomeng, I advise you not to talk about it everywhere."
"I'm not talking nonsense! Sister Yu, don't you think it's strange why there are so many rumors about you in the headquarters recently, and they are even rumored? It's obvious that there is someone very close to you.
Someone did it deliberately, and I guess this guy is probably the same person just now."
Hearing this, the corners of Li Ningyu's mouth raised slightly, but she still snorted and refused: "Your little cleverness should go to the telecommunications department and the action team. It won't be of much use here."
"Chief Li, I remember you once told Morita that your memory is very reliable, right?" With that said, Gu Xiaomeng reached for the things on the desk.
However, before they even touched each other, Li Ningyu shouted loudly to stop her, "Don't move!"
"Don't worry, I won't touch your confidential documents, but it seems like there are only confidential documents in your office!" After saying that, Gu Xiaomeng took out a magazine and continued proudly, ""Good Fate",
Chinese magazines, I only read this one, pages 28 and 29, "On the Willfulness of Scarlett's Love in (Gone with the Wind)" literary and film review, two articles. It's about 700 words, I
How about just reading it once to prove my memory to you?"
Hearing this, Li Ningyu couldn't help but lean back, glanced at her watch, and said with the utmost care: "I'll give you three minutes."
"five minutes."
"Four minutes!"
"Three and a half!" Gu Xiaomeng said with a wicked smile, as if her conspiracy had succeeded.
…
"Colonel! Just as Major Mitsui speculated on the ship at the time, that Jin Shengxian is definitely Stalin's spy. This is the code book I found from his luggage. It is irrefutable proof!"
In the office, Wang Tianxiang was making a report to Longchuan Feihara seriously.
Long Chuan Fei Principle asked expressionlessly: "So, he has already confessed?"
"Okay, according to Jin Shengxian's confession, he sneaked into the electrical and mechanical room, then cut the telegraph operator's throat with a knife, and then left after sending the telegraph."
"Is this the result of your interrogation?" Ryukawa Hihara continued to ask.
"Yes, we found the information from the book that Jin Shengxian brought on board. It was written in invisible ink and put together. It happened to be the military information of the Manchurian Security Bureau's encirclement and suppression of the Red Resistance Alliance, and it has been confirmed with the Manchurian side.
The information is true. I think he must have uploaded the information he had stolen before and had not had time to send it to his superiors."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Longchuan Feiyuan's face not only showed no joy, but became more and more gloomy, "Director Wang, I can't tell, you are still a master of torture!"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Tianxiang couldn't help but look stern, "No... I don't dare to take it. It's just a matter of being loyal to the imperial army and eating the salary of the imperial army!"
"Director Wang, don't be too humble. Mitsui Shouichi interrogated Jin Shengxian on the ship for a whole night and found nothing. If you didn't have the ability to turn a deer into a horse, how could you have obtained a confession of wanting to die quickly?"
"Colonel..." Wang Tianxiang swallowed hard, "A humble position... I have been engaged in torture for several years in a humble position, and I am confident that I have never solved an unjust, false or wrong case..."
"But your self-confidence is worthless to me!" Before Wang Tianxiang could finish speaking, Ryukawa Hihara interrupted him by slamming the table, "Because Jin Shengxian's confession is different from those at the scene.
The traces don’t match at all!”
"No...it doesn't match?"
However, just when Wang Tianxiang was still a little confused, Longchuan Feiyuan suddenly winked at Li Qiang, who had been standing aside with his hands down and saying nothing.
The latter, without saying a word, darted in front of Wang Tianxiang, drew out his dagger and made a slight cut on his neck. By the time he reacted, blood had already dripped to the ground.
"Chief Ming, you! Colonel Longchuan, what are you..." Wang Tianxiang hurriedly covered the wound with his hand and said in disbelief.
However, before Longchuan Feiyuan could speak, Li Qiang took the initiative and asked: "May I ask Director Wang? The room temperature here is basically the same as the room temperature in the mechanical and electrical room on the code ship. How long does it take for a drop of blood to leave the human body and become dry?"
time?"
"This... this, I..." Faced with Li Qiang's sudden question, Wang Tianxiang hesitated for a long time without saying a word.
Only then did Li Qiang point to the blood dripping on the ground and said, "Director Wang, it took five minutes for your blood to solidify from the dripping channel, and it took about fifteen minutes to completely solidify. According to Jin Shengxian,
He confessed that he broke into the electrical and mechanical room and reported the murder while Morita was convening experts to study and examine the manuscript of Li Ningyu's calculations, right?"
"yes."
So next, Li Qiang told Wang Tianxiang the previous inference of Longchuan Feiyuan.
"...So, the spy who reported the murder must not be Kim Sung-hyun!"
"But, if according to Colonel Ryukawa's inference, the murderer was still at the scene when Colonel Morita and his people arrived, then where would the murderer be hiding?"
"Good question!" A rare look of appreciation appeared on Longchuan Feiyuan's face, "This is also a question I have been thinking about in my mind for the past few days."
"Also... Colonel, if Jin Shengxian is not a spy, how should we explain the information found in his luggage? This is solid evidence!"
"Real evidence?" Ryukawa Hihara chuckled, "Are you sure?"
"Forehead……"
"I asked you if you were sure?"
"Yes... sure!"
"Then I can tell you clearly that it is the solid evidence you confirmed that makes me completely believe that Jin Shengxian not only cannot be the murderer, but also cannot be Stalin's spy!"
"Why... why?"
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang on the side opened his mouth and explained in time: "Director Wang, I'm afraid you don't know something about this. It is a standard practice in the intelligence market and the black market for intelligence to pass the information into two parts. Chapter 1
Part of it is exchanged for a deposit, and after inspecting the goods, the balance will be collected. A trader like this who sells information for money cannot be a GPU spy who was brainwashed by Su Hong and values faith above all else!"
Hearing this, Wang Tianxiang suddenly realized it. He quickly stood up and bowed his head to Ryukawa Hihara to admit his mistake and said: "You are humble and stupid, and let the real murderer slip through the net. Please punish me!"
Long Chuan Fei Principle waved his hand, "It didn't slip through the net, it's just that I couldn't determine which fish it was for the moment!"
"Yes! With your sharp eyes, Colonel, I won't be afraid of the real murderer flying into the sky!"
"What?" After hearing what Wang Tianxiang said, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Longchuan Feiyuan's mind, and he quickly asked, "What did you just say?"
"I said... with your sharp eyes, Colonel, I won't be afraid of the real murderer flying into the sky!"
"Heaven? I think I know where the murderer was hiding at that time!"
Li Qiang also thought about it with Longchuan Feiyuan belatedly, "Colonel, you mean on the pipe above the electromechanical room?"
"That's right! In addition to Morita, there were thirteen code-breaking experts in the restaurant at that time. Each of them could be an assassin. But in terms of the success rate of the assassination, the one closest to him should be the one most likely to succeed.
That person is her, Gu Xiaomeng!"
"It's impossible for a wealthy socialite to become a killer, right?" Wang Tianxiang said subconsciously.
"Just because his father is extremely wealthy, she is desperately trying to join the spy agency. Don't you think it's suspicious?"
"But Colonel, as far as I know from my humble position, Gu Xiaomeng was originally assigned to the Secretariat. It was the Director of the Confidential Division, Jin Shenghuo, who forcibly transferred her to the Confidential Division. For this reason, she was very unhappy with Wu Zhiguo."
"Really? I'm not sure about that."
Wang Tianxiang immediately echoed: "Yes, Colonel, you just said that the real culprit who reported the murder evaded Colonel Morita's search by hiding on the pipe above the electromechanical room, climbing on the ceiling with only a steel pipe
How much strength does it require to stand for fifteen minutes? Isn’t it too difficult for a young woman whose physical fitness is B and her fighting ability is C?”
"It seems that Director Wang knows this Gu Xiaomeng very well!" Longchuan Feihara joked, "That's right, so her suspicion can be ruled out for the time being."
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang couldn't help but said: "Then according to your inference, Colonel, can Li Ningyu be ruled out?"
"Well, as far as I know, she still had serious injuries on her hands at the time. What's more, he was in the conference room at that time, still nervously deciphering the second-generation machine, and there was no time to commit the crime."
"In other words, neither woman is suspected of murder. If Jin Shengxian confirms that there is no suspicion of murder, the murderer can only be one of Jin Shenghuo, Bai Xiaonian and Wu Zhiguo?"
"It's impossible for Bai Xiaonian. When the murderer broke into the electrical and mechanical room, he had not yet boarded the ship."
"Jin Shenghuo! It must be Jin Shenghuo! He was the one who forcibly transferred Gu Xiaomeng to a confidential location, and then asked her to follow him on board the ship to attend a business seminar. All of this was for an ulterior purpose. He
He is a cunning man, and he is a high-level spy trained by Dai Li. Killing people, sending reports, and assassinating people are commonplace for him." Wang Tianxiang said firmly.
"Don't forget, he is a heavy smoker who never leaves his hand on cigars. His smell can be smelled from a long distance away. How could Morita not notice it?"
"Then...only Wu Zhiguo is left. He is a first-class killer, and killing is his specialty."
"This person is the most unlikely. Of course, he could kill someone and send a report. However, he did not have the time to assassinate Morita. He was on the stairs at that time. He killed someone for a knife at such a distance, and then returned to the original position. In a short time
It is simply impossible to complete all these actions! And according to his professionalism, he cannot understand the second-generation cipher machine, and there is no possibility of recording those data. Therefore, Wu Zhiguo has no motive to kill Morita."
"That is to say...the five people from the Suppression Headquarters have all been ruled out as suspects?" After coming to such a conclusion, even Wang Tianxiang himself felt that it was ridiculous, but he still forcibly held back, "That one
Maybe it’s Jin Shengxian.”
Unexpectedly, Longchuan Feiyuan smiled faintly and said, "Don't rush to a conclusion yet, Director Wang. The inference just now is just my first inference. If you understand the first one, then there will naturally be a second one."
"You are stupid because of your humble position, please give me a clear warning from the commander."
Wang Tianxiang hurriedly pretended to be asking for advice humbly and listened attentively. Li Qiang on the side also subconsciously pricked up his ears, for fear of missing what Longchuan Feiyuan said next.
"The inferences just made are all based on one situation, that is, the spy who reported the murder is the same person as the murderer of Colonel Morita. But what if they committed the crime in a gang?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Tianxiang and Li Qiang suddenly understood.
At this moment, a Japanese major came in and said, "Commander, I have bought the magazine you asked for."
After saying that, he respectfully placed the magazine in his hand on the desk in front of Longchuan Feiyuan. Wang Tianxiang took a peek and easily saw the name on the cover of the magazine, "Good Fate".
…
"Time's up!" In the office, Li Ningyu glanced at her watch, and then took the magazine back from Gu Xiaomeng's hand without any explanation. She glanced at it for a few times and then closed the magazine with a "snap".
