Today we originally planned to go to the Jialing River Pier to investigate and inquire.
But Xia Tuo's news changed everything.
The two of them went back to the Intelligence Section first, reported the matter to Shen Lushui, and asked the section chief to take notice.
Song Shutang did not come to the Information Section these days.
Therefore, when Zhu Yue saw Song Shutang approaching in the department, he stepped forward out of curiosity and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I have something to report to the section chief."
"The section chief has gone to a meeting, please wait a moment."
"Have a meeting so early?"
"On short notice."
"A meeting at the office?" Song Shutang asked.
If it were a meeting of the Intelligence Department, Shen Lushui would not be able to give short notice, and Zhu Yue would definitely be present.
This is obviously a meeting of the Military Department.
"right."
"whats the matter?"
"I don't know. I heard someone else in the department mention it. It seems to be related to the puppet government."
"Wang Ni!" Long Hao naturally understood who he was talking about.
He had seen this Wang Ni before and listened to his speeches. He seemed to be a very decent man.
What he did in his early years made many people applaud him.
Composing poetry in prison is also a beautiful thing to talk about.
The speech was even more passionate and inspiring.
Long Hao was listening below, wishing he could get up and make peace.
Who would have dreamed of becoming a traitor now?
Since Shen Lushui was not in the office, Song Shutang and Long Hao were waiting in Zhu Yue's office.
At the same time, Zhu Yue also asked about the problems they encountered during the current investigation.
Long Hao reported.
After listening, Zhu Yue understood why the two came back.
It concerns the embassy in China.
Even though the Military Command is at its peak now, it still needs to be handled carefully when it comes to international issues.
After all, the national government as a whole is very sensitive to international issues.
Especially the current situation in mountain cities.
"Are Xia Tuo's words credible?" Zhu Yue asked.
"Whether it is credible or not depends on whether it is credible or not," Song Shutang stated his position.
It has something to do with the embassy.
If the possibility is low, you can actually give up the investigation.
After all, they are arresting spies, not asking for trouble.
And for your trouble, the Military Command Bureau may not be able to protect you.
But Song Shutang's attitude was very clear, that is, since Xia Tuo provided information, there was a certain possibility.
Their investigation process is a process of elimination.
Believable or not.
You need to investigate before you can draw a conclusion.
Instead of sitting in the office now, you can get results in just a few words.
Zhu Yue naturally understood what Song Shutang meant, but there was considerable resistance in investigating the legation.
We really have to wait until the section chief comes back to discuss it.
But this morning meeting lasted quite a long time.
Shen Lushui waited until almost noon before returning to the Intelligence Section.
Zhu Yue took Song Shutang and Long Hao with him.
As soon as Shen Lushui sat down to take a sip of water, he saw three people coming in.
Song Shutang was investigating with new ideas before, so has he investigated the clues now?
"What's wrong?" Shen Luchui asked.
"This is the section chief..." Song Shutang took a step forward and reported the problems he was currently encountering.
Shen Lushui originally thought there was a clue.
Who knew that I would hear this result.
Although it can be said to be a clue, the problems involved are very serious.
If you are not careful, you will cause trouble for the Intelligence Department.
Especially now, the Military Department, and even the entire Military Command Bureau, are under great pressure.
Seeing Shen Lushui's hesitant expression, Song Shutang felt that the problem might be serious in today's meeting.
Otherwise, according to Shen Lushui's character, this investigation would be a bit troublesome.
But he should also think of a solution as soon as possible instead of hesitating.
Zhu Yue knew Shen Lushui better and immediately asked: "Is the section chief's meeting today involving something important?"
Hear this question.
Shen Lushui did not answer Song Shutang immediately.
Then he said: "Wang Zhaoming was in Shanghai. During this period, Wang Shulu also secretly entered Shanghai and stayed for three days. Just after he left, Liang Dongpo also secretly set foot in Shanghai and stayed for five days."
"Wang Shulu, Liang Dongpo!"
"These are all big traitors." Long Hao was very familiar with the two of them.
Before Wang Zhaoming defected.
These two people are famous traitor leaders.
Wang Shulu assumed the position of Chairman of the Administrative Committee of the Provisional Government of the Republic of China, a puppet regime supported by the Japanese army.
Liang Dongpo took up the post of executive director of the "reform government" of the puppet Republic of China.
One is in Peiping.
One is in Jinling.
In addition to the puppet Manchukuo, there are two major puppet regimes, one in the south and one in the north.
These two are both powerful figures.
But now that they are all showing up in Shanghai, what are you trying to do?
Long Hao frowned and said, "What are the Japanese planning to do?"
Song Shutang also said: "Before, Ichiro Takeuchi said that there was a 'New Mansion Plan'. We all thought it was the establishment of Wang Ni's puppet regime, but now it seems that it is not that simple."
After hearing Song Shutang's words, Shen Luchui nodded and said, "That's true."
Amid everyone's expectant eyes, Shen Lushui said: "The Japanese intend to combine the three puppet regimes into one."
"Become one?"
"Yes, except that the puppet Manchukuo regime will not change, the other three will be merged."
Although the Wang Ni puppet regime has not yet been publicly established.
But now it cannot be ignored.
Even after the merger of the three so-called traitor groups, I am afraid that Wang Ni was the dominant one.
It can be shown from various current signs.
The Japanese are extremely ambitious.
Now we want to establish a puppet regime to take control of the occupied areas.
No wonder we have an early meeting today.
I'm afraid it's not just the military department, but everywhere.
There should be a high-level meeting within the bureau with the participation of the directors of various divisions. After returning, we will hold meetings in various divisions to explain the matter.
This incident has a great impact.
It has even seriously affected the current anti-Japanese situation.
And Wang Ni Group is afraid that it will soar into the sky.
The so-called ‘New Mansion Plan’ is already a certainty.
Then the work of instigating rebellion in the mountain city will probably be even crazier, and the results will definitely be better.
There is also great pressure on the Information Section.
In fact, the Military Command Bureau had already assassinated these two traitors.
In particular, Wang Shulu, the chief of Jinmen Station, collaborated with the chief of Peiping Station to carry out the assassination.
The operation went smoothly.
The bureau even planned to hold a celebration party.
But who knew that there was also a Japanese sitting in the car that day, who accidentally helped Wang Shulu block the gun and died.
The assassination plan failed.
From then on, Wang Shulu was extra careful.
The Japanese also protected him in the same way.
Therefore, there is no chance of assassination to this day.
Nowadays, waiting for this kind of thing can be said to be extremely stressful.
I saw that everyone had serious expressions.
Shen Lushui said: "According to the information we have received, it is an indisputable fact that the Japanese want to establish a large puppet regime, and it is very likely that Wang Ni will lead it. They will even use the name of the National Government. In the end, they will use the name of the National Government." To go too far, they may even seek international recognition and ask them to open an embassy in Jinling."
"Absurd!" Zhu Yue said.
Puppet regime.
And use their names.
They even dared to ask for international support.
Open an embassy.
This is not ridiculous!
"But such a ridiculous thing has happened now." Shen Lushui said.
Only now did Song Shutang understand why Shen Lushui hesitated.
The international situation is changing.
Don't mess around.
This investigation into the Turkish Embassy in China will not be handled well.
I'm just afraid that the Wang Ni Group will take advantage of it.
One hair move affects the whole body.
"Section Chief, the Japanese spies must be investigated." Song Shutang expressed his attitude.
Shen Lushui supported Song Shutang's idea.
As the head of the intelligence department, he needs such subordinates.
It is his business to weigh the pros and cons and make a decision. The people below should have the determination to investigate the espionage, rather than making calculations in their hearts.
Shen Lushui admired Song Shutang very much.
He is not a reckless young man, but he has the passion and persistence of young people.
"Of course we have to investigate," Shen Lushui said.
"Do you want to report to the director?" Zhu Yue felt that Shen Lushui could no longer make a private decision on this matter.
"I'm afraid that telling the director will also embarrass the director." Shen Lushui had just returned from the meeting and understood the situation.
Even Bao Yiwei knew it.
I'm afraid it's also more troublesome.
How can this be done?
Just when everyone was about to think of a solution, Shen Lushui changed the topic and said, "Let me think about this matter again. I will stay in the study hall to make a detailed report. You two will go down first."
Think about it and you will understand.
Why do we need to report in detail?
Now the report is obviously very detailed.
Letting Zhu Yue and Long Hao leave first was obviously intended to keep them away.
But Zhu Yue did not hesitate, nodded and left with Long Hao.
Song Shutang did not pretend to be stupid. After the two left, he asked: "What are the instructions from the section chief."
"Director Mao asked you to assist in the investigation. How is the progress here?"
"During this period, the department is busy with things and I have no time to take care of it."
"It's been such a long time. It's time to report to Director Mao, otherwise it wouldn't be a bit of a neglect." Shen Lushui said.
Hear what Shen Lushui said.
Song Shutang's eyes lit up.
He understood what Shen Lushui meant. He wanted to see Director Mao himself and then directly tell Director Mao the current situation.
Let Director Mao make the decision.
Skip directly to Bao Yiwei.
He even asked Director Mao to report the matter to Boss Dai.
Reporting beyond the next level.
But Shen Lushui will definitely talk to Bao Yiwei about this matter.
Song Shutang is not considered a leapfrog report.
It's about helping your boss solve problems.
But Song Shutang's image is a bit shabby.
You are from the Intelligence Department, but you reported the news to Director Mao.
But Shen Lushui's eyes clearly understood that in order to capture the Japanese spy, he should sacrifice his life.
Moreover, you are acting under orders, and the Director and I both know that.
After Song Shutang understood these meanings, he did not hesitate and said directly: "This subordinate should really go to Director Mao to plead guilty. It is really inappropriate for the investigation to take so long without any results."
The two of them had a tacit understanding.
Song Shutang left Shen Lushui's office.
After he left, Shen Lushui also came out of the office and went to see Bao Yiwei.
Bao Yiwei was sitting in the office at the moment, his expression not very good.
After all, he had been involved in the designation of plans and the selection of personnel in previous assassinations of traitor leaders.
But it failed in the end.
This is the situation now.
Although I know that even if you assassinate Wang Shulu and others, the Japanese will find other people to support you.
The essence will not change.
But it was not assassinated. If such a situation occurs, it will definitely be disgraceful.
Seeing Shen Lushui coming to the door again, Bao Yiwei gathered his thoughts and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shen Lushui didn't talk nonsense and briefly explained Song Shutang's investigation clues.
Bao Yiwei got a headache when he heard it.
You say there is conclusive evidence.
you have not.
Then the investigation into the embassy is likely to be fruitless.
Then your suspicious partner will have reason to guess, why are you?
Wait until others add fuel to the fire and spread rumors.
The nature of things will definitely be different.
You said you were an investigative spy.
Many people may think you are provoking the embassy.
Explore the secrets inside the embassy and more.
Many times, there are many things that you cannot explain clearly with your mouth.
Especially at this critical moment.
The possibility of trouble is quite high.
Seeing Bao Yiwei frowning, Shen Lushui immediately said that he had arranged for Song Shutang to report to Director Mao.
Bao Yiwei understood what Shen Lushui meant as soon as he heard it.
This raises the issue.
After Bao Yiwei learned the news, he could also ask questions.
He can just report to Boss Dai directly.
But are you going to present a problem to Boss Dai?
When investigating Japanese spies, everything needs to be reported to Boss Dai. What do you want the director of the military department to do?
It would be difficult for him to do so then.
But it was different if Song Shutang reported directly.
Never mind whether the above can guess that they did it intentionally.
Anyway, as long as you know it.
At this time, Song Shutang was already standing outside Director Mao's office waiting.
When he came, the person outside told him that there was someone in Director Mao's office, so Song Shutang said that he would be waiting.
After a while the door opened.
Other members of the Military Command came out and left.
The man at the door went in and reported that Song Shutang was waiting outside.
"Go in." The person who reported it came out and said to Song Shutang.
"Thank you."
Entering Director Mao's office, Song Shutang stood up straight.
Without waiting for Director Mao to ask, he said: "There has been no progress in the investigation in the past few days. I really betrayed Director Mao's trust."
Director Mao knew the situation in Song Shutang very well.
The Information Section is busy during this time.
And it's very busy and productive.
Song Shutang can also be regarded as a meritorious official.
You said that you are now coming to your door to plead guilty for this matter, but that is definitely not the case.
Director Mao asked: "What else can I do?"
"My subordinates have recently investigated..."
After hearing Song Shutang finish the question, Director Mao secretly cursed the Intelligence Department for being a fox.
Shen Lushui is even more bad-tempered.
But in front of Song Shutang, he didn't show it.
He also did not answer his words and let him leave.
Song Shutang retired honestly.
After he left, Director Mao went to Boss Dai's office.
Director Mao told the whole thing in a more playful tone.
Later, he said: "Chief Shen is an old fox, Director Bao is even more solitary, but Song Shutang, a boy with a straight gun, has to let the boss make up his mind on this matter."
Boss Dai didn't take this little thought seriously.
He also smiled and said: "Tell me, is this Song Shutang a blessing or a disaster in the Intelligence Department? He has performed well, but now he seems to be a little involved with the Red Party, which makes Bao Yiwei and Shen Lushui fearful.
It is even more important now at this juncture that such a thing is being investigated, and after the Intelligence Division suspended the investigation, everything has caught up with him."
Director Mao said: "Isn't it good to be close to the Red Party? This was the boss's plan before, but now it can be said that the progress is going very smoothly."
After hearing Director Mao's words, Boss Dai smiled and said nothing.
Director Mao continued: "It depends on whose hand the gun is held, whether it is in the boss's hand. The more 'red' it is dyed, the better."
"It's too early to talk about these, let's talk about the embassy." Boss Dai changed the topic lightly.
Director Mao is also used to it.
But he knew that he must have spoken to Boss Dai's heart.
