Drive all the way back to the river bank, board the car ferry, and then drive to the Military Command Bureau.
After entering the office, he asked the clerk responsible for investigating the arsenal to begin reporting the results.
Some have come back, some are not over yet.
However, after working overtime and compiling the report, we can conclude that the investigation encountered obstacles at every turn.
No one has found it yet.
Go back to rest in the evening, and the remaining staff will return to the Information Section the next day to continue reporting.
The result is just like yesterday.
Looking at the reported results, Zhu Yue looked a little helpless.
If the other party refuses to cooperate in such an investigation, and the Ordnance Industry Administration is backing it, it will be difficult to make any progress.
Song Shutang and Zhu Yue went to report to Shen Lushui.
After hearing this, Shen Lushui said: "Shangfeng issued a death order. This matter must be investigated to get to the bottom of the matter and find a way to overcome the difficulties."
Going to the top only requires results.
The difficulty of the investigation is not an excuse to let it go.
Zhu Yue did not intend to give up, but wanted more support, at least to shut up the Ordnance Industry Administration.
But it is obviously difficult to complete.
Zhu Yue frowned when he came out of Shen Lushui's office and said to Song Shutang on the side: "If we continue to investigate like this, it will be difficult to gain anything without offending people, and we might even get into big trouble."
Song Shutang said, "Maybe we can find another way."
"What's the meaning?"
"Go to the office and talk."
"Walk."
The two returned to the office again, and Song Shutang said: "Since the arsenal sells privately produced ordnance secretly, through what channels do the spies purchase it?"
"Originally we planned to investigate through this line, but the 'Mountain Ghost' incident was publicized in the newspapers, which will definitely alert the people behind it. We wanted to pretend to be our identities and go to buy firearms and explosives, but it was already too late. The other party would definitely be here. Disappeared for a while.
Coupled with the reminder given by the Ordnance Industry Administration, the people behind it will be even less likely to commit crimes against the wind, and our current path is unworkable." Zhu Yue has not thought of this method before.
But I gave up because it didn't work.
It is still not feasible for Song Shutang to bring up the old matter again.
But Song Shutang said: "It's naturally too late for us to pretend to be our identity and buy it now, but has someone bought it before?"
"Has anyone purchased it before?"
"That's right."
"Spy!"
"The Japanese spies will naturally not cooperate with us, but the red party may not." Song Shutang said the red party.
Hearing the Red Party Zhu Yue immediately said: "Do you think the Red Party has also purchased weapons and equipment secretly?"
"It's not impossible."
"But we are responsible for their logistical supplies. They can just apply."
"Why should the team leader pretend not to understand?" Song Shutang directly exposed Zhu Yue.
All kinds of supplies for the Red Party are indeed the responsibility of the National Government.
But it’s impossible that they don’t have people behind the scenes, and this is not a secret.
How are these personnel armed?
Trying to bring weapons into a mountain city presents the same problems as a spy.
Then buying secretly is one channel.
Although the Red Party's economic strength is far from being comparable to theirs, and it is expensive to purchase firearms secretly, there are also giant businessmen who support them, so it makes sense to arm them.
It is likely that the purchase channel is the same as that of the Japanese spy.
Now maybe we can get clues from the Red Party.
Zhu Yue naturally understands!
It's just that he thinks this trouble is not small.
He tried to act stupid but was directly exposed by Song Shutang.
First of all, if you seek cooperation from the Red Party, there is a problem in itself. Don't use unity to resist Japan as an excuse. It doesn't make much sense.
Secondly, the Red Party secretly purchased firearms and equipment, which was a serious violation of the regulations set by the National Government. How could they cooperate with you?
If it goes wrong, it may cause trouble. The Pingjiang Communications Office matter has not been settled yet. Although Song Shutang helped rescue Meng Jiaqi, the Red Party is still making a fuss about it.
They even prepared to hold a large memorial service.
If you provoke the red party again now, the Intelligence Department will be held responsible if the situation escalates.
Finally, the Red Party needs military strength and equipment. If the channel disappears, they will have nowhere to turn, which is not good for them.
From this point of view, it would be unwise to seek help from the Red Party.
They may not be able to help you either.
Song Shutang knew what Zhu Yue was worried about, but he insisted: "The Red Party keeps saying that it wants to resist Japan. This time the arsenal sold weapons and equipment to spies. They may not know about it, or they may not know that it is the Shancheng arsenal behind it."
, if we let them know that under the balance of justice, they are likely to choose to help us."
The red party buys weapons.
We also don’t know clearly who the owner behind it is.
After all, since it is hidden behind my back, I dare not let others know it easily.
Explain the seriousness of the situation and you may not be able to get cooperation.
Zhu Yue was still embarrassed and said: "But aren't they themselves involved in trouble?"
The Red Party secretly purchased weapons in the mountain city.
Encouraging the arrogance of those behind it is not a good thing.
If you expose it, the government can take the opportunity to launch an attack.
"If the Red Party gets into trouble, they will never be able to provide us with any help. But what we are looking for now is not the Red Party's trouble, but we must investigate to get to the bottom of it, otherwise there will be no way to explain this matter to the top.
You and I, team leader, understand how important it is."
"What on earth do you mean?"
"Ignore the Red Party, just want their intelligence."
"Is that possible?"
"The team leader agrees that I can give it a try."
"I will report to the section chief," Zhu Yue said.
"If the section chief knew about this, I'm afraid even the red party would have difficulty cooperating."
"You and I are making our own decisions?"
"It cannot be said that it was done on one's own initiative. It was all done to catch the real culprit behind the scenes. After all, the impact was too bad."
Zhu Yue fell into deep thought.
If you don't ask the Red Party for help, they won't have any trouble.
If you ask the red party for help and prevent them from getting into trouble, you may solve the case.
Such a comparison is actually a good choice.
It's only when it's about the Red Party that people get entangled.
"Is there really no need to report it to the superior?" After hearing Zhu Yue's question, Song Shutang knew that he had relented.
"If you are really worried, just report it." Song Shutang actually didn't want to report it.
After all, it's more trouble.
But Zhu Yue obviously would not make decisions privately.
"Wait for me in the office." Zhu Yue immediately stood up and went to find Shen Lushui.
I'll be back in about twenty minutes.
As soon as he entered the door, he said: "The section chief agrees."
It’s not surprising that Shen Lushui would agree.
As I just said, the Red Party has no trouble in this matter.
At least you can't cause trouble for them.
They won't ask for trouble either.
So now that you can get the clues they provide is an extra bonus, don't think about causing trouble for them, otherwise you won't be able to investigate the truth and the Intelligence Department will be in even more trouble.
Zhu Yue said in a low voice at the same time: "This matter is being carried out in secret and must not be known to others, especially the Central Bureau of Statistics."
"clear."
After agreeing to this proposal, the person in charge was naturally Song Shutang.
Besides, Director Dai also said that he could contact Meng Jiaqi.
"How are you going to speak?" Zhu Yue asked.
"Of course we can't be direct. We can only hint to the Red Party. If they provide us with information later, they will definitely not give it to us openly. After all, we can't leave any clues."
"Then you should be more careful. The section chief thinks this is an opportunity and you must seize it."
"Don't worry, I will."
Song Shutang wanted to use the Red Party to catch the traitors who were arrogantly enriching themselves.
But I don’t want to cause trouble to the Red Party.
Therefore, we will try our best not to take advantage of the situation during the process.
Although everyone is aware of this matter, you have no evidence and if you come up with the Pingjiang Communications Office of the Red Party, people will think you are being unreasonable if you really jump out and say it.
In fact, Song Shutang also wanted to give it a try through this matter.
Is the Red Party really, as they say, wholeheartedly committed to resisting Japan?
After receiving the confirmation, Song Shutang returned to the office, contacted the Xinhua Daily newspaper office by phone, and told them that he was looking for Meng Jiaqi.
When Meng Jiaqi received the call.
Song Shutang said: "It's me, Song Shutang."
"Why do you have time to call me?" Meng Jiaqi's voice came from the phone.
"My bonus has been distributed. I would like to ask if your special donation for purchasing aircraft has started?"
"It started a few days ago. I thought you were injured, so I didn't notify you."
"I've been discharged from the hospital. I'll go and see where the activities are."
"Tomorrow's event will be at the Shancheng Youth Building."
"Then I understand. I'll go there tomorrow."
"I happen to be responsible for work tomorrow afternoon. I will wait for you at the Luojiawan intersection and we will go together." Meng Jiaqi said.
She always felt that Song Shutang would not contact him specifically for donations.
Therefore, she planned to go to the event tomorrow. Originally, she was not responsible for tomorrow's work.
The newspaper office has now been moved outside the city, further away than Song Shutang, so we can meet at the Luojiawan intersection along the way.
"Okay, what time will I wait for you at the intersection tomorrow afternoon?"
"We can reach the intersection at two o'clock."
"good."
Song Shutang didn't say much on the phone. After agreeing on the time, he hung up the phone.
Meng Jiaqi was thoughtful as he listened to the busy tone on the phone.
However, it is not appropriate to speculate now. We can meet tomorrow to find out. She returned to her job and continued working.
