The surprise that I have been waiting for for several days has not yet arrived.
On the other hand, there are no surprises at all when looking back at the Intelligence Division's handwriting investigation.
Through the investigation, the selected people were asked to cooperate in identifying the handwriting to see whose hand it came from. Everyone said they did not recognize the handwriting.
Whether it is newspapers, publishing houses, or even some government agencies.
They all said they were unclear.
Long Hao and Song Shutang finished meeting with the final selected personnel today, and returned to the Intelligence Department to find Zhu Yue.
Zhu Yue was a little helpless after learning about this situation.
"Is it possible to expand the scope of inquiry directly?" Long Hao threw the list in his hand on the table and asked.
The people who were asked before were all screened out.
Maybe these screened people don't recognize the handwriting they want to investigate.
So should we expand the number of candidates so that people from the entire industry can participate in the identification?
I didn't have this choice before because I was worried about being exposed and alerting the enemy, causing the enemy to evacuate first and never catch him again.
But now there is no progress, and there is no other good way without expanding the scope.
How to choose now is really difficult.
Expand the scope of the investigation?
May cause enemies to flee.
Not expanding the scope of the investigation?
There's nothing left to check.
Zhu Yue couldn't pay attention for a while and asked Song Shutang: "What do you think?"
"Don't ask me, ask the section chief." Song Shutang also smiled bitterly.
This investigation was not always successful.
Akiko Kamiguchi provided Rongcheng Radio Station, but who knew that there would be no gain if people left the building empty.
Provide information about Usagawa Ken in hospitals and sanatoriums in Shanghai. The information collected is of little use.
Xinjing investigated and found out that Miki Kouta liked Yi Xue, but all the people were excluded from the investigation. Subsequently, the three people from Ebi also provided some new lists, but they were also excluded.
Now I plan to start with Masada Kazuya.
And the clues left behind have been found, but it is just a piece of paper, which is not what was expected.
According to clues provided by Kamikochi Akiko, the handwriting is not in Masada Kazuya's handwriting.
It was determined that handwriting was the key, but the investigation found nothing.
Overall, the Intelligence Section's investigations have been hitting obstacles at every turn.
It can even be concluded that Kota Miki led the team.
The members include Takeru Usagawa and Irui Kuike, who are already the most important clues.
If Akiko Kamiguchi had not rebelled and chosen to help, the Intelligence Division would not have been able to figure this out for a long time.
But at present, just knowing these cannot bring more gains.
Especially at this moment.
Everyone is undecided on how to investigate.
This is also true including Song Shutang.
It seems that the only option is to listen to Shen Lushui's advice.
Zhu Yue didn't want to go and report if he didn't get any results. After all, it didn't feel like a work report, but more like showing his own powerlessness.
But you can't put it off.
After all, Shen Lushui said this time that if there was no progress in continuing the investigation, he would give up the task.
I definitely have to report now.
Song Shutang saw this and said, "I'll accompany you."
He also wanted to hear what Shen Luchui meant.
Of course, Zhu Yue would not refuse someone to accompany him. He smiled and said, "You are quite interesting."
"It's enough for you, the team leader and the deputy team leader, to go. I won't go." Long Hao had already raised his legs and was about to slip away.
Who has nothing to do but wants to face this kind of atmosphere.
Song Shutang is the deputy team leader, so he should go there.
Why should he, Long Hao?
Seeing Long Hao leave without looking back, Song Shutang and the two of them smiled helplessly.
Naturally, he would not drag Long Hao over, and it would not be a good thing.
The two came to Shen Lushui's office, and Zhu Yue began to report.
When Shen Lushui heard that the investigation had reached a deadlock again, he was not too surprised. After all, he had already thought about suspending the investigation before.
After Zhu Yue's report was over, Shen Lushui asked: "You have concluded that the things left by Masada Kazuya were handwriting. Now you want to find the Japanese spies in the Doihara agency through handwriting comparison."
"yes."
"How confident are you that this reasoning is correct?"
How sure are you?
Either wrong!
Either right!
It’s hard to answer the question about how sure you are.
But Zhu Yue still said: "I think it is very correct."
Why?
Masada Kazuya was under surveillance and investigation by the Intelligence Division at the time. At such a critical moment, he did not forget to hide the note.
It is enough to illustrate the importance of the note.
Coupled with the information provided by Kamikochi Akiko, the information hidden behind this note was the Japanese who were secretly investigating Masada Kazuya in Yamashiro at that time.
Moreover, there is only text on the note and it is still a manuscript.
The key content must be handwriting.
After the overall analysis, Zhu Yue didn't think there was any problem. He felt that this inference was very correct.
"You think this is the right path, but the reason why you can't go down it is because you are worried that expanding the scope of investigation and comparison will alert the enemy."
"Exactly that, section chief."
It had previously said it would abandon the investigation.
But now there is a right way.
In this case, if Shen Lushui gave up the investigation, he would be unwilling to do so.
According to Shen Lushui's character, it is impossible to give up the investigation unless absolutely necessary.
He can even stand up to pressure.
There had been several such moments in the previous operations to capture Japanese spies, and Song Shutang knew what Shen Lushui was thinking.
I also know that Shen Lushui is confused at the moment.
After all, I'm not willing to give up.
It can expand the scope and easily alert others.
It's hard to have a best-of-both-worlds solution.
It's just that Shen Lushui is sensible enough.
He understands that if you expand the investigation now, the gains outweigh the losses.
If you give up the investigation, you might have another chance in the future.
After struggling for a long time, Shen Lushui said: "Is there no other direction in which we can check?"
"Currently there is only one clue: the handwriting." Zhu Yue said that there really were no other clues.
"To be on the safe side, don't expand the scope of the comparison investigation." Shen Lushui finally said.
Instead of scaring away the spies, it is better to investigate later.
Now that you have determined that the owner of the handwriting is in these industries, how could he not know about it when you expand your investigation into it?
It's too risky to bet on whether the intelligence department will find out faster or the spy will find out faster.
"What about the investigation of Miki Kota's spy team?" Zhu Yue asked.
The handwriting survey cannot continue at this time.
What about the investigation of the Japanese espionage team?
Faced with this problem, Shen Lushui said: "Since there are no clues, let's stop for now. When we have the latest news, we will restart the investigation immediately."
Upon hearing this decision, Zhu Yue and Song Shutang expected it, but they still couldn't hide their disappointment.
How could Shenlu water not be lost?
Therefore, he was not in the mood to comfort the two of them.
Zhu Yue continued to ask: "What about Akiko's place here?"
Her role is to participate in the spy team investigating Kouta Miki.
The investigation has now been suspended.
Where should she go?
"Akiko Kouguchi has provided a lot of information during this investigation, and this task is not over yet. Her help may be needed to restart the investigation in the future. It is not appropriate to just throw away the trouble and kill the donkey now." Everyone understands what Shen Lushui said.
At least Usagawa Ken and Kuike Iran are provided by Akiko Kamiguchi.
Secondly, it was determined that Kota Miki led the team, and it was also her contribution.
To identify whether the handwriting was written by Masada Kazuya, we still have to rely on Kamiko Akiko.
Overall, she has played a useful role.
At least among the clues that have been grasped, Kamikochi Akiko's contribution is not small.
If you kill the donkey now, imprison him in a concentration camp, prison or even an interrogation room.
This can easily create a certain rebellious mentality in Kamikochi Akiko.
In the future, if you have new clues and restart the investigation and want to use her again, she may not be able to sincerely work for you.
Because she thought she would still be punished.
"It's better to let Kang Hao and others continue to watch her, and let her report in the intelligence section every day, so that we can keep an eye on her even if her eyes are low," Zhu Yue said.
She is not allowed to participate in other investigative work of the Intelligence Division.
But it is still placed within the Information Section.
It's not like killing a donkey, but it can also be monitored at all times.
Shen Lushui thought this was okay and said, "Then let her come out."
Previously, he was imprisoned in the Military Control Bureau as a pretense, but now there is no need to pretend, after all, the investigation has been temporarily abandoned.
The Information Section also has other tasks.
Next, a group from the Intelligence Department will gradually participate.
Zhu Yue will make arrangements and be responsible.
After coming out of Shen Lushui's office, Song Shutang said, "What a pity."
In the office just now, Zhu Yue, as the team leader, just had to speak, he couldn't do anything for him.
When Shen Luchui asked him, he naturally wanted to answer.
But there was no need to ask him the questions just now.
His and Zhu Yue's answers were the same.
"Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do. That's it for the time being. Don't send the note to the confidential room for the time being. Keep it in the department so that you can restart the investigation at any time in the future." Zhu Yue felt that the current investigation information about Miki Kouta's spy team should not be sent to the secret room for now. Send it to the data room for storage.
After all, it's not over yet.
It’s safe to put it in the coop and easy to access in the future.
That note is here in Song Shutang. After all, he took the information with Long Hao to meet with the selected people in the past few days to identify it.
"Understood, I will hand it over to Long Hao soon and ask him to store it."
"And Kamikochi Akiko, go and let her out and tell her the current situation."
"good."
After parting ways with Zhu Yue, Song Shutang went to find Long Hao and handed him the note.
Tell him to keep it safe.
The Intelligence Section also has a place to store information and evidence. Long Hao began to classify all the information and then sent it in for storage.
Song Shutang went to see Kamikochi Akiko.
"Let her out."
"yes."
Kang Hao and Bi Sheng opened the door to the room and let Akiko come out.
Upon seeing this, Kamikochi Akiko came out and asked Song Shutang, "Is there any progress?"
After all, if nothing unexpected happened, she might still need to cooperate inside.
"Abandon the investigation." Song Shutang said clearly.
When she heard that the investigation was abandoned, Kamikochi Akiko pursed her lips slightly. This was a situation that was not good for her.
I have been under house arrest in my room for the past few days.
She had also imagined this outcome.
But it’s true, and you can imagine how you feel.
"What about me?" Kamikochi Akiko was more concerned about her own fate.
Her fate is closely linked to the spy team investigating Kota Miki.
If we don’t do an investigation now, what about the arrangements for her?
"The Section Chief is kind enough to allow you to continue to stay in the Intelligence Section as usual, and you will not be able to participate until the investigation is restarted."
"Thank you, section chief." Kamikochi Akiko thanked her immediately.
She thought she might be imprisoned somewhere.
I didn't expect there would be a chance.
"No need to thank you, just be honest."
"I understand everything."
"Let's go."
After following Song Shutang to leave, Kamikochi Akiko felt a little worried.
But she didn't go back to her office.
Instead, he followed Song Shutang to his office.
"What's wrong?" Song Shutang asked.
Kamikochi Akiko came in and sat down and said: "I have been thinking in the room these days, what should we do if the screening personnel cannot recognize the handwriting."
"Have you thought of it?"
"But you said Corey gave up the investigation. Presumably he won't agree to expand the scope."
"Expanding the scope of the investigation is no different from tipping off Japanese spies."
"So I have other ideas."
Kamikochi Akiko said she had other ideas.
Song Shutang looked a little amused.
The current situation obviously means there is no good way to continue the investigation.
Otherwise Shen Lushui would not have made the decision to give up.
What thoughts could Akiko Kameguchi have?
Is it possible that you still want to talk about the Sword Holding Group?
But Kang Hao and Bi Sheng were standing at the door of the office, which was still open.
This was done deliberately by Song Shutang.
After all, you and the spy, at least the former spy, are in a room alone.
Of course you have to be careful.
Kang Hao and Bi Sheng stood at the door just to listen and watch.
But they wanted to prove Song Shutang's innocence and had no other intention.
Under such circumstances, Kamikochi Akiko should not dare to speak nonsense.
"Let me know what you think." Song Shutang was curious about what she thought during the few days she was detained.
Kamikochi Akiko leaned forward slightly.
Although he is well-dressed, the curvature in front of his face is still eye-catching.
Perhaps he took advantage of his own advantages in his early years and developed a habit of doing so.
Song Shutang did not warn him, nor did he pay any extra attention.
I just want to hear what she has to say.
"Masada Kazuya left the spy's handwriting of investigating him, thinking that after he was killed by the Doihara Agency as a warning to the monkeys, or that he was arrested by the Intelligence Division, he could provide strong clues.
But if Masada Kazuya is killed, even if the Intelligence Division finds the note, it will be in the same investigation dilemma as now, and the murderer will even flee the mountain city if the investigation is launched. What Masada Kazuya cares about is not whether the Intelligence Division can investigate the murderer. But his own death may be in vain, and the murderer can leave the mountain city to live freely, which is something Masada Kazuya can't accept, right?"
After hearing what Akiko said, Song Shutang lowered his head and said it made sense.
As for Masada Kazuya, after he was arrested, he provided this information to prove his worth.
The principle is the same.
With this clue, it is difficult to catch someone.
Not of much use.
Moreover, Masada Kazuya is very confident in himself. He does not think that he will be arrested by the Intelligence Division, so the clues are mainly aimed at the Japanese spies who are investigating him.
But if that's all it is, this clue obviously can't help him get revenge.
Song Shutang thought it made sense, but still said: "Maybe Masada Kazuya has only investigated these, and he has not investigated more clues, so he can only keep these things."
After all, it was the person who was previously said to be responsible for investigating Masada Kazuya.
strong ability.
At least better than Masada Kazuya.
Moreover, Masada Kazuya did not dare to blatantly counter-investigate, so it is understandable that there are no more clues.
This is not surprising.
"But I don't think Masada Kazuya thinks that way," Kamikochi Akiko said.
"Why?" Song Shutang thought this was very reasonable.
It was in line with Masada Kazuya's situation at the time and his abilities.
It is also consistent with the situation and abilities of the person responsible for investigating him.
"I came to Yamashiro to meet Kazuya Masada and was tasked with beating him. When I beat him, his performance was fine. However, he has been detained for the past few days. I confidently recalled the situation at that time. I think he knew something.
What."
"He knew he was under investigation, isn't that right?" Song Shutang asked back.
Masada Kazuya definitely knows.
Otherwise, where would the note come from?
Song Shutang also hopes that Akiko Kamiguchi can provide useful clues, but now he can only deny the other party and see if she can produce strong evidence to convince him.
Otherwise, it may really be just an assumption and reasoning that she is unwilling to accept and wants to change her situation.
