Song Shutang was the first to answer the question: "The No. 9 warehouse where the transaction was completed is the warehouse of Shancheng Rubber Factory, but this matter should have nothing to do with Shancheng Rubber Factory. Long Hao has been asked to confirm, and then the problem of the warehouse should be eliminated."
After hearing that the investigation results were not good, Zhu Yue said: "It's the same here."
"Where's the phone number?"
"The phone number we checked was the phone number of a foreign company. I went to investigate and found that no one in this company works overtime after six o'clock in the evening."
Foreign companies have the habit of not working overtime.
Therefore, no one will be left in the company after get off work.
"But the Red Party called a foreign company at midnight, and someone did pick up the phone." Song Shutang believed that the Red Party would not lie about this matter.
Zhu Yue said: "We have investigated and it is impossible for someone to hide in a foreign company every night. The risk is high and unreasonable."
The phone doesn't ring every night.
You're a little too stupid to hide in there every night.
But the Red Party did get through the phone call. Remembering that Yan Qinghui and Nie Hong helped him install the phone in his office, Song Shutang immediately said: "Did someone connect the phone line to the phone line of a foreign company?"
This technique is not difficult.
Find the company's internal phone line.
Peel it off and connect the new phone cord.
This will cause two phones to share one line.
In other words, if you call the foreign bank's number, the other phone will ring.
Even if you pick up the receiver of another phone, you can still hear the voice on the foreign phone.
To put it bluntly, it's like a computer.
There was no one in the store at night, and the phone could only be answered by people who sold arms, so it was stipulated that calls could only be made at midnight.
Calls made during the day are answered by a foreign company.
It is difficult to communicate in a foreign language, and people who buy ordnance are very cautious, so under normal circumstances they will not violate the rules at all.
"The person behind the scenes used the foreign company's phone number. Firstly, after the foreign company got off work every day, there would be no one in the company, so no one could answer the phone at midnight and affect their communication. Secondly, they were interested in the identity of the foreigner. If exposed,
The horse's leg can still be delayed for a moment or two," Song Shutang analyzed.
"I also suspected that the phone lines were being connected privately, so I went back to Corey and prepared to find professionals from the Telecommunications Office and the General Affairs Office to follow us to check the phone lines." Zhu Yue also realized this.
Telecommunications Department, General Affairs Department.
Yan Qinghui and Nie Hong are just right.
But the two of them were not experts in making calls, so it was difficult for Song Shutang to take the initiative to mention it.
Zhu Yue felt that it was not appropriate to overdo the job and checked the phone lines. There was no need to let Yan Qinghui and Nie Hong take action.
So I arranged for someone to go to the telephone team of the General Affairs Office and ask someone to come over and assist in the investigation.
People were quickly invited.
A senior chef about forty years old, surnamed Chen.
Master Chen had a tool bag on his waist. When he saw Zhu Yue, he said, "Team Leader Zhu, let's go."
"Master Chen, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"Easy to say."
Song Shutang naturally planned to go with him to see it first.
Just when a few people were about to go out, Long Hao also rushed back.
When several people meet, they go together.
On the way, Song Shutang asked: "How is the investigation of the Shancheng Rubber Factory going?"
"It is true that on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, a ship of goods arrived at the dock. It was supposed to arrive during the day, but something delayed it on the way and it was delayed until night." Long Hao answered.
This can confirm what Yan Jun said.
The mastermind behind the scenes chose Warehouse No. 9 as the trading location because they knew that goods would arrive at night, and Yan Jun would be busy packing hemp ropes and other items, so there was no one on duty in the warehouse.
Zhu Yue heard this and said: "This person not only knows the arrival situation at the terminal, but also understands the nature and habits of the foreign companies' work. He has many sources of intelligence and is timely."
You need to be well-informed to understand the working habits of foreign companies.
The news at the dock happens on the same day, and you must use it on the same day, otherwise it will be of no value.
Information that doesn't seem to be connected can be known in time. The person behind this is really not to be underestimated.
I took Master Chen to a foreign company.
Master Chen found the telephone line and started investigating along the line.
I walked backwards following the telephone line, and on a telegraph pole on the street behind the foreign store, Master Shen shouted from above: "Found it."
"Can you find the cross-connected phone?" Zhu Yue shouted from below.
Master Chen shook his head and said: "The telephone line connected to this telephone line has been removed, but the interface is obvious and traces can still be seen."
Removed?
It can be seen that the people behind the scenes are also afraid that the Military Command Bureau will investigate this clue and clean it up in advance.
Zhu Yue kicked the telephone pole and said, "It's not the Ordnance Industry Administration. How could they react so quickly?"
"Captain Zhu, slow down, I'm still on top." The wooden telephone pole was kicked and shook, and Master Chen shouted from above.
"I'm sorry, Master Chen, come down quickly."
Master Chen slid down from the pole and said: "There are indeed traces of wiring, and it should have been removed in the past few days."
"Thank you, Master Chen."
"It didn't help much either."
Thank you and let Master Chen go back first. Song Shutang and others stood under the telephone pole and thought.
Long Hao said: "They removed the phone line and took it away. This street is quite densely populated. Let's check if anyone saw it."
"It must have been done in the middle of the night." Zhu Yue felt that there was no need to investigate.
Since the other party is here to destroy evidence, they will not leave any new evidence.
They even pretend to be maintenance personnel at the telephone station, so even if the people see it, they won't pay too much attention.
The Ordnance Industry Administration made their investigation too difficult.
But Song Shutang said: "I can understand the attitude of the Ordnance Industry Administration, but their speed and determination in issuing the notice were a bit too fast. I now suspect that someone in the Ordnance Industry Administration should also be involved behind this matter."
Reasonable doubt!
Zhu Yue and Long Hao actually felt this way too.
"But we can only find the man behind the arsenal, and through him we can identify the accomplices in the Ordnance Department. It is difficult to directly investigate the Ordnance Department now." Zhu Yue felt that it was much more difficult to investigate the Ordnance Department than to investigate the arsenal. .
Song Shutang naturally did not want to investigate the Ordnance Industry Administration now, and he also knew that there was great resistance.
Just looking up at the phone line, Song Shutang said: "Why aren't the people behind it afraid that some buyers will be disobedient and call for consultation during the day, causing foreign companies to know that their phone numbers are being strung across?"
The Red Party just bought firearms during the Chinese New Year.
Master Chen said that the phone line was removed recently.
If you have been using this method to sell firearms for such a long time, why are you not afraid of disobedient buyers?
"I asked the staff in charge of answering the phone at the foreign bank, and he said that he had never received any strange calls. In other words, there were no so-called disobedient buyers. It can be seen that whether buying or selling, he abides by this rule. That's why they are not afraid." Zhu Yue said.
Sell!
purchase!
I don’t even dare to be known in the mountain city.
Therefore, both parties have a tacit understanding and abide by the agreement.
This kind of agreement without any binding force is extremely strong, and no one will even take the initiative to break it. It is really an abnormal form of integrity.
If the red party is interested that day, they can investigate the phone number, and then find the location of the cross-line phone through the phone line. By tracking this location to see who will enter the room at night, it is actually easy to get the seller's information.
But the Red Party did not do this.
After all, they are more worried about their own information being mastered than the seller's information.
But suddenly Song Shutang's eyes narrowed and he said: "Maybe the spies already know who is selling weapons and equipment."
The Red Party is not interested.
But what about spies?
If Japanese spies get in touch with people selling weapons and equipment in this way, will they in turn investigate who sold them these weapons?
If you knew it was Shancheng Arsenal.
Doesn't that mean the handle is already in the hands of Japanese spies?
Is it possible that these people have been incited to rebel by threats?
If they are instigated by Japanese spies, the investigation will be escalated to several levels this time.
Zhu Yue and Long Hao were also shocked when they heard this.
If this is the case, it’s not just a matter of smuggling arms and enriching one’s own pockets!
Long Hao was surprised and said: "But why did they choose this contact method, knowing that it would be easy for someone to backtrack and find clues."
Zhu Yue thought for a while and said: "Maybe the location of the call connected to the phone line is hidden. Even if you follow the phone line to find it, it is not easy to locate the location. But now that the phone line has been removed, we have no way to determine this."
"I think the person behind it shouldn't be so careless. Now is not the time to think about this. We can figure it out just by catching the person." Song Shutang feels that it doesn't make much sense whether to escalate the matter or not.
You have to catch the mastermind behind this.
As for your upgrade, you asked Shangfeng to pay more attention to it and strictly ordered the Ordnance Industry Department to cooperate, and even asked the Intelligence Division to directly investigate the Ordnance Industry Department?
If you make things more serious, you may get such a result.
But you cannot guarantee that what you say is the truth, and you have to bear certain risks.
Secondly, the more serious the problem, the greater the fault of the Ordnance Industry Administration. They will only unite to prevent you from investigating, and the situation may not be as good as it is now.
Song Shutang and others returned home and planned to discuss it again.
