"It's nothing, I'm just staying here under the orders of Colonel Longchuan to prevent Director Wang from... making mistakes..." Li Qiang said pointedly.
Wang Tianxiang hurriedly laughed and said: "Section Chief Ming is really good at joking. If others don't know it, don't you know me? I am a very principled person, how can I make mistakes?"
"There is no best. Otherwise, I would be really embarrassed."
"Chief Ming, look at what you said, we are all working together, how can I make it difficult for you?" After saying that, he quietly stuffed a small yellow croaker into Li Qiang's hand.
Li Qiang was not polite and simply accepted the gold bar. Then he said to Gu Xiaomeng nonchalantly: "Captain Gu, to be honest with you, Jin Shenghuo is already in Colonel Longchuan's room. You'd better hurry up!"
At the same time, in Longchuan Feiyuan's room.
"Colonel, if there is really an old ghost among the five of us, then nine times out of ten it is that Gu Xiaomeng!" Jin Shenghuo took a puff of his cigar and said lightly.
"Oh? Do you have any credentials?"
"It's very simple. The leaks only occurred after she entered the headquarters. Before that, the entire headquarters was almost monolithic and had no loopholes. Moreover, she was unstoppable and willful. She was as unbearable as a devil or a traitor.
If you hear it, it will come as soon as she opens her mouth. Doesn’t this explain the problem? "
"You're right, this is indeed very suspicious, but Director Jin, don't forget, she is the only daughter of King Ship Gu! With such a family background and her origin, is it possible for her to become a spy of the Red Party?
?”
"It is said that among the British spies there is an Indian princess!"
Hearing this, Ryukawa Hihara couldn't help laughing, and then waved his hand and let him go back.
The second person to come in was Gu Xiaomeng.
"Good morning, Captain Gu, you are in good spirits! How are you? Did you sleep well?" Longchuan Feiyuan asked thoughtfully as soon as he saw Gu Xiaomeng.
Gu Xiaomeng yawned several times in a row, "It would be better if Colonel could let me sleep for one more hour!"
Long Chuan Fei Principle smiled and then went straight to the point, "Then we have to see if you cooperate, Captain. If the interrogation can be completed as soon as possible, maybe you can go back and take a nap."
"To be honest, Colonel, that's what I really think. If you have any questions, just ask!"
"Okay, so in your opinion, who among you is most likely to be the old ghost?"
"Bai Xiaonian!" Before he finished speaking, Gu Xiaomeng blurted out almost without thinking.
"Just him?"
"Yes! He's the only one!" Gu Xiaomeng confirmed.
"What's the reason?"
"He can tell by the scent of a woman's hair who she met the night before and what relationship she has with this person. Therefore, no matter when he gets on the ship and whether he knows the content of the secret message, he will always
If you have the skills, you can find out."
Speaking of this, Gu Xiaomeng recalled for a moment, and then continued: "Ah, by the way, that night was the last dinner. All of us drank a lot, but Secretary Bai was the only one who was very sober. No,
He must be too sober, chatting and laughing everywhere, you can see him socializing almost everywhere, and the strangest thing is that he also intentionally or unintentionally asked where the guards and lifeboats are. Don't you think this is too suspicious? "
"Well..." After pondering for a moment, a smile finally appeared on Longchuan Feiyuan's face, "Captain Gu, thank you for your cooperation. You can go back to sleep in your cage."
As soon as Gu Xiaomeng left, Bai Xiaonian was brought over by Li Qiang.
Bai Xiaonian gave a different answer to the same question.
"If you ask me to tell you, Colonel, I think that Jin is the most suspicious of the fire! He, Director Jin, is an old man in the military command, but he suddenly and inexplicably surrendered and retreated into a small suppression headquarters.
It’s too unreasonable to be the director of some kind of confidential department. Isn’t it too unreasonable? Even if the reason is as he said, it is because of the dispute between the military and the central government. Dai Li wants to lose his soldiers to save his chariot, but the military commander of the central government has been fighting for so many years.
Oh, when has Dai Li not had the upper hand? Maybe, this is Dai Li's trick. With Director Jin's ability, he can be a double agent, take advantage of the wind, and push the boat along. This shouldn't be a problem for him.
What's the problem?"
"Isn't your guess too bold?"
"But according to your previous reasoning, Colonel, isn't his act of forging secret messages very suspicious in itself?"
Unexpectedly, Ryukawa Feihara smiled and shook his head, "Secretary Bai, you are really smart. You used my reasoning to answer my questions. It seemed that you said everything but said nothing. No wonder you are so highly regarded by Commander Zhang."
,Okay, you can go back."
ten minutes later.
"Snapped!"
Longchuan Feiyuan slammed the table, looked at Li Ningyu who was sitting opposite him with a fierce look, and asked angrily: "Chief Li, to tell you the truth, before you I have already
I talked to three people, and of course someone exposed you as the old ghost. Do you have anything to say about this matter?"
However, after hearing this, Li Ningyu just glanced at Longchuan Feiyuan with contempt and did not make any response.
"Chief Li, time is life. I hope you won't waste our lives anymore."
Only then did Li Ningyu finally speak: "Honestly, I'm not surprised that someone exposed me as the old ghost, but I really don't know who the old ghost is. Even if I am exposed or framed, I can't act without conscience.
Just push people out casually, right?"
"I didn't expect that Section Chief Li is in such a high state of mind. I admire you very much, but do you really have no suspects yourself?"
"...No doubt!"
Unexpectedly, Longchuan Feiyuan smiled happily, "You are lying, Chief Li. When you said "no doubt" just now, you blinked subconsciously, which shows that you still have doubts in your heart.
Why don't you say it?"
Hearing this, Li Ningyu lowered her head again and fell into silence.
And Ryukawa Hihara was also very patient. He waited for a long time before persuading him: "I know how it feels to hold things in your heart, so you might as well say it!"
"...Wu Zhiguo! There is something fishy about him."
"Section Chief Li is so hesitant to talk about the rumors about the two of you in the headquarters..."
"No, the reason why I hesitated just now is because, although his body is okay, it is unlikely to be an old ghost."
Longchuan Feiyuan kindly poured a cup of tea for Li Ningyu, pushed it in front of her and asked: "What's the reason?"
"He once asked me about the contents of the coded message, just after I successfully deciphered it."
"Then, can anyone prove that he asked you about the contents of the secret message?"
"No one can prove that he came alone. He was in my cabin." Li Ningyu replied truthfully.
"Then why do you conclude that he is not an old ghost?" Ryukawa Hihara asked again.
"It's very simple. Captain Wu rose to this position all by relying on human lives. He killed anyone who resisted the Japanese. Among them, there were many people from the Red Party. A man like him
How can someone with a blood debt be an old ghost?"
Hearing this, Longchuan Feiyuan nodded thoughtfully, and then asked Li Ningyu to go back.
After a while, Wu Zhiguo, who was last in line, was also brought over.
"Captain Wu, to be honest with you, I have already talked with these four people, Gu Xiaomeng, Jin Shenghuo, Bai Xiaonian, and the one you care about most, Li Ningyu. Now you are the only one left, so tell me!"
Unexpectedly, Wu Zhiguo always kept a straight face and said in a deep voice: "The only thing I have to say is: If you dare to frame me, I will kill you! The worst is that we will all die together!"
After saying this, Wu Zhiguo left Longchuan Feiyuan, who looked shocked, and left without looking back.
However, before Longchuan Feiyuan said anything, Wang Tianxiang on the side couldn't help but jumped to his feet and shouted at Wu Zhiguo's leaving back: "Wu Zhiguo! What are you doing? I've rebelled against you. Stop! Stop! I hear you.
No? Colonel, please calm down, and I will take him to the torture room in a moment...and take him to the torture room!"
"What were you doing there to catch him?"
"Colonel, his attitude just now clearly shows that he is an old ghost!"
Unexpectedly, Ryukawa Hihara smiled after hearing this, "If anyone who dares to threaten me is an old ghost, wouldn't this ghost-hunting game be too simple?"
"Colonel, maybe... I mean maybe, maybe this case is really that simple? What if you make this case complicated?"
"Director Wang, after getting along with each other for this period of time, I found that you have some brains, but not much."
"Colonel...what do you mean?"
However, before Longchuan Feiyuan could speak, Li Qiang on the side explained: "Director Wang, is it possible that you still haven't seen through the tricks of these five people? Jin Shenghuo accused Gu Xiaomeng, Gu Xiaomeng accused Bai Xiaonian, and Bai
Xiaonian accused Jin Shenghuo, and Li Ningyu accused Wu Zhiguo, but as for Wu Zhiguo... let’s not mention it!"
"Ah!" It was only then that Wang Tianxiang suddenly realized, "Apart from Li Ningyu, aren't the others trapped in a trap?"
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang shook his finger and said: "It's simple, Director Wang, this is just the first layer on the surface. And the real purpose of what they did is to clear themselves of suspicion!"
"That's right!" Longchuan Feiyuan glanced at Li Qiang with admiration, and then took the initiative to take over the conversation and said, "Just like Jin Shenghuo's accusation against Gu Xiaomeng, it is purely groundless and baseless. He is a spy catcher trained by Dai Li.
, if he doubted a person, he would definitely cut his throat with a sword, how could he make such an understatement?"
"Yes, Colonel! Doesn't this mean that Gu Xiaomeng is not an old ghost?" Before Ryukawa Feihara finished speaking, Wang Tianxiang immediately said with excitement, "Do you think about it, how can a spy be so blatant?
He must express his inner dissatisfaction freely, and the spy who lurked in should behave loyally!"
However, before he finished speaking, Li Qiang on the side said with some ecstasy: "If you say so, in my opinion, no one in the entire headquarters is more loyal to the imperial army than you, Director Wang, then aren't you, Director Wang?"
Is he more like a mole than all five of them?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Tianxiang's face almost turned green with fright, and he said hurriedly: "Chief Ming, such a joke is not allowed to be made! Colonel... I..."
Long Chuan Fei Principle smiled and patted his shoulder, briefly comforted him, and then continued: "Look at that Bai Xiaonian again! The reason he accused Jin Shenghuo of using was exactly the forged secret message I pointed out last night
.”
"That is to say, this Bai Xiaonian is more suspicious than Jin Shenghuo, right, Colonel? But... you said it yourself last night that the biggest suspicion about Jin Shenghuo is that he forged secret messages? Why..."
"Don't jump to conclusions yet, Director Wang, do you know why I pointed out the best things about everyone last night?"
Wang Tianxiang shook his head in confusion, but Li Qiang on the side thought for a while and then said: "Colonel, you must be doing this to destroy the trust between the five of them and arouse mutual suspicion among them.
Is that so?”
"That's right, so it doesn't matter whether my accusation is true or false, reasonable or not. What's important is that I want to destroy each of them's sense of security! Destroy the trust alliance between the five of them. Groundless accusations like this
, people who have no ghosts in their hearts will naturally not refute, but those who use my accusations to rush out an old ghost are the most suspicious!"
"That is to say... Colonel, you also suspect that it is Bai Xiaonian?" Li Qiang couldn't help but frowned and asked.
"Bai Xiaonian is Commander Zhang's confidential secretary. He has the best access to confidential information, and with his character and ability, he fully meets the requirements of an espionage officer." Speaking of this, Ryukawa Hihara said a little.
After a pause, he continued, "But Li Ningyu's accusation against Wu Zhiguo is also very interesting..."
However, before he finished speaking, Wang Tianxiang immediately said: "Colonel, if that's the case, then why not take Bai Xiaonian and Wu Zhiguo to the torture room right now!"
After saying that, Wang Tianxiang turned around and walked out.
But before he had taken two steps, he was stopped by Ryukawa Hihara, "What are you doing? Come back here!"
After hearing this, Wang Tianxiang stopped quickly, turned around and said, "Colonel, what other orders do you have?"
"the last time!"
"Wha...what?"
"I said this is the last time I will tolerate you interrupting me. Next time, I will treat you as the sixth old ghost suspect and put you in the east building with those five guys. Do you hear me?"
"Yes! Colonel, I promise you that there will never be a next time."
Hearing this, Ryukawa Hihara's face became a little better, "Before dinner, let's release all what they said to each other. In this way, I believe we will see some interesting things."
.”
"Yes!" Wang Tianxiang stood up quickly after hearing this, and then left the room as if he had been granted amnesty.
In the blink of an eye, it's already dinner time, but tonight's meal is destined to not be peaceful...
