Impulsiveness is the most taboo thing in intelligence work.
An assassination operation requires careful planning and finalizing the details before proceeding.
Familiarizing yourself with the environment and arranging your retreat route is the most basic requirement.
Would a spy not understand?
Soon after arriving in the mountain city, he was eager to launch an assassination operation!
Why does it appear to be in a hurry?
Take some time to understand the road conditions in the mountain city, and it is simple enough to sharpen your knife and chop wood.
The three of them frowned and Li Tairan said: "It can be seen from the method that the murderer is not a fool. He has extremely high professionalism and will not make stupid mistakes."
truth!
Zhou Zhuang and Yuan Peng are members of the Intelligence Department and not ordinary people. The fact that the murderer could kill them without alerting others and leaving no clues proves his professional ability.
But such a professional person did what only a layman would do.
He dared to launch an assassination operation without even being familiar with the road conditions.
Zhu Yue said at this time: "Is it possible that this person is confident enough to kill people and escape without leaving any clues, even without knowing the situation in the mountain city in advance, which is why the current situation occurs."
Facts have proved that the other party did it.
But Song Shutang could not accept the confident explanation.
He said: "The more experienced intelligence workers are, the more cautious they are."
How did you get your experience?
Participated in intelligence work for a long time.
Prove to live longer!
How can you survive long in intelligence work?
You need to be more cautious than ordinary people.
Therefore, as long as they are experienced intelligence workers, they are all in awe as if they were walking on thin ice!
The other party can do it neatly and without leaving any clues in such a situation, and there is no need to doubt their experience.
What caused this situation was obviously not self-confidence.
Zhu Yue asked: "What do you think?"
"Maybe it's a last resort."
"It won't be a waste to spend a few more days to understand the situation in the mountain city before taking action."
"Maybe he doesn't have time to understand the situation in the mountain city?" Song Shutang asked.
If an experienced intelligence worker makes a move that goes against common sense, he must have a reasonable explanation.
Li Tairan said thoughtfully: "Is it possible that he will leave the mountain city soon?"
"The Japanese spy agency not only asked him to carry out the assassination and revenge mission, but also rushed to arrange for him to leave the mountain city. This is obviously unreasonable." Zhu Yue felt that the Japanese spy agency would never force it on its own, and its intelligence staff would make mistakes, right?
"No matter what, the murderer may leave the mountain city and strike again. We must be prepared." Song Shutang felt that it was difficult to figure out the situation at the moment.
Zhu Yue immediately said: "Remind all members of the Intelligence Section and even the Military Statistics Bureau to be more vigilant. If possible, try to avoid acting alone. The enemy is too skilled to deal with. Don't use your own body as a bait to lure the enemy."
The military command bureau has a large number of people.
It's hard for the murderer to fall for you if you act as bait.
After all, there used to be a lot of people acting alone, but now suddenly there are only a few left, so they must have noticed the clues immediately.
Therefore, there is no way to deploy control in advance.
Members of the Military Command Bureau are also not allowed to lure the enemy by themselves to avoid unexpected events.
There are many ways to leave the mountain city.
At present, no characteristics of the murderer are known. It is difficult to control the channels in and out of the mountain city and capture this person.
"I hope he can stay for a few more days." Li Tairan was not willing to watch the murderer slip away.
"If he can stay a few more days, why rush to take action?" Zhu Yue thought this was a paradox.
Song Shutang said, "What if he wants to kill more people?"
I want to kill more people.
Time will be tight.
That's why I'm anxious.
Arrogant!
Taking risks and hastily launching an assassination operation just to kill more people?
What kind of place do you really think of a mountain city?
But Zhu Yue now also hopes that this is the case, so that he has a chance to capture this person.
"Let's go see the scene of Yuan Peng's murder first." Zhu Yue felt that no clues could be missed at present.
The three people at the scene have not yet gone to check it out, so they must go there in person.
After leaving the Information Section, we arrived at the bank of the Jialing River, and then took a boat directly across the river to Niuchao Bay.
We did see the scene of the first crime and the ditch where the body was.
Zhu Yue analyzed: "Yuan Peng did not die immediately after the murderer took action. He was worried that he would be rescued by someone passing by, so he abandoned it in the ditch."
"The situation is slightly different from what Zhou Zhuang encountered at that time." Song Shutang said following the words.
Zhou Zhuang slowly bled to death on the spot.
Li Tairan made the same analysis and said: "Maybe there were passers-by passing by not far away at that time, so the murderer threw Yuan Peng into the ditch. Otherwise, like Zhou Zhuang, he might have been allowed to slowly lose his vitality."
"Clue." Zhu Yue thought this was an important clue.
If someone really passes by, they might see something.
"Immediately arrange for people to conduct a collective visit nearby to ask if anyone passed by here at the time of the incident and if anyone was suspicious." Zhu Yue believes that a large-scale visit is now necessary.
This must be done even if it takes time and effort.
Two members of the Intelligence Section have died, so it will never stop.
Li Tairan immediately said that members of the second group would also participate in the visit.
Afterwards, they also went to Yuanjiabao. After asking about the situation, the three of them returned to the Intelligence Section and reported the matter to Shen Lushui.
Shen Lushui was originally in a good mood that the matter at the French Embassy was resolved, but people in the Intelligence Section were killed one after another, and he was furious.
Kill members of the intelligence department in the mountain city!
As the chief of the intelligence department, how could Shen Lushui be calm?
The atmosphere in the office is very heavy.
When he heard that there might be witnesses, Shen Lushui said: "All members of the Intelligence Department can go out to investigate and dig deep to find this person. The murderer must stay in the mountain city. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Section Chief." The three of them said in unison.
Coming out of Shen Lushui's office, several people were very stressed.
Zhu Yue and Li Tairan immediately said that they would send out members of the intelligence department to visit and investigate near the crime scene.
Even the ferries on the Jialing River need to be inquired.
At this moment, members of the second group came looking for Li Tairan with a bag of things in their hands.
"Team leader, these are Yuan Peng's relics, what should I do with them?"
When I opened the baggage, there wasn't much inside.
Li Tairan took a look and said, "Send it to Yuanjiabao's family."
The guns and other items have been recovered. These relics belong to Yuan Peng's personal belongings and should be returned.
At the same time, Li Tairan said: "The pension will also be sent together."
But the team member said: "The pension has not been approved yet."
The process of what happened today will also take time.
But it would be unsightly to send the relics alone, so Li Tairan said: "When the pension is approved, I will send it together with the relics."
Just when the members of the second group were about to take orders and leave, Song Shutang suddenly stepped forward and took out something from the relics.
A bunch of purple pendant-like things made of cloth.
It looks like purple grapes being crushed, or like hyacinth hanging upside down, but it doesn't look like a hyacinth.
Song Shutang asked: "Is this also Yuan Peng's thing?"
"It must be the one found on him," said the second group member.
Song Shutang said: "There is also this thing among Zhou Zhuang's relics."
"What did you say?" Zhu Yue asked.
Zhu Yue did not look at Zhou Zhuang's relics carefully.
He was just buried with the coffin.
Song Shutang didn't check it specifically, but he passed by and took a look and found that there was indeed such a thing.
I didn't take it seriously at first, I just thought it was Zhou Zhuang's thing.
But this thing was also found among Yuan Peng's relics, which was obviously wrong.
It is impossible for two people to have exactly the same object.
Li Tairan immediately said: "The murderer deliberately put it on the two of them."
"It seems that our inference is correct. The murderer is the same person, and he did come to take revenge on the Intelligence Department." Faced with this provocation, Zhu Yue wanted to fight back.
But looking at the thing in his hand, Song Shutang didn't understand what he wanted to express.
Moreover, the workmanship is not very detailed, and the things are even a bit abstract. Perhaps the original appearance cannot be restored well, so it is difficult to distinguish them for a while.
Song Shutang took the thing away and said, "Find someone to identify it."
"Let the person in charge of Zhongshan Office and Siyi Library take a look." Li Tairan suggested.
This person is well-read and highly educated.
The three of them immediately headed to the Siyi Library.
He found the person in charge and handed the things over and said, "Director Peng, please take a look."
Director Peng picked up the object and frowned as well, but suddenly his brows relaxed and he said: "The workmanship is too poor. I almost didn't recognize it. Isn't this the flower of Fenghua Wisteria?"
Blooming wisteria!
Hearing this name, Song Shutang immediately said: "'Hufeng', Ichiro Takeuchi, Li Mucong!"
