Lin Mo and others took a rickshaw and rushed back to the small courtyard. It was already late at night, but Gong Qiming was still waiting in the living room.
After a few people came back, they went into the living room together and reported to the teacher the details of today's meeting with Zhao Pingnian and Xu Zhiyu.
After the report, Lin Mo handed the route map and recorded situation found by himself and others to the teacher, and then took out the information found by Pier and Yao Jiange and distributed it to everyone for circulation.
Lin Mo first took a look at the news from Yao Jiange and found that the information in it was quite detailed, especially the information about the employees of Qingmao Trading Company in Nanjing.
As for the information about Qingmao Commercial Bank offices in other areas, although it is not so detailed, it can be done to rule out the other party as a Japanese spy.
After reading the situation of Qingmao Trading Company, Lin Mo picked up the information on Hetai Hotel and read it carefully.
In this information, the situation of Hotai Hotel is introduced in detail, including what the Hotai Hotel location was used to do before, when Hotai Hotel was established, and the decoration and layout inside Hotai Hotel.
Apart from these situations, the rest is the situation of the internal staff of Hetai Hotel.
In Hetai Hotel, the status of the chef, shopkeeper and clerk are all clearly written.
After taking a closer look, Lin Mo found that except for the shopkeeper and the clerk who had some problems with the people in the store, he found no other problems.
Among the other people in Hetai Hotel, except for the chef who is from the north, the other staff are all Nanjing locals. Although the chef is from the north, the time he arrived in Nanjing does not match the time of Chen Maofeng and others.
And the chef’s family is also in Nanjing.
However, to be cautious, Lin Mo took a closer look at the chef's family situation and found that the chef was a family of five, including the chef, his wife, and three children.
Seeing this situation, Lin Mo decisively eliminated the chef. After all, in the spy industry, there are people who pretend to be husband and wife, but there are people who directly drag their families into battle, and they have three children. This situation occurs.
The probability is too low.
Even if this happens, it will definitely not happen to a chef. After all, if this method is really used, then the person's internal identity and hidden depth must be very high among the enemy.
It would never appear in such a chef or a small restaurant chef.
After eliminating the suspicion of other people in Hetai Hotel, Lin Mo took out the information of the shopkeeper of Hetai Hotel and the waiter who lived with the shopkeeper.
The owner of Hetai Restaurant is Hu Jianbang, who claims to be from the Northeast. He opened Hetai Restaurant more than three years ago, and also hired chefs from the Northeast who sell breakfast in Nanjing to sell some meals that suit the taste of the Northeast.
The waiter who lived with Hu Jianbang was named Wang Zhanshun. According to the information sent by Yao Jiange, Hu Jianbang claimed that Wang Zhanshun was a relative of his, and Wang Zhanshun did call Hu Jianbang uncle when he was away.
However, Lin Mo did not continue to pay attention to these things, but continued to read carefully. After reading some of the situations of these two people again, he finally came to the place that Lin Mo was most interested in.
Here, it is recorded in detail what happened before Yao Jiange’s men discovered that Hu Jianbang was establishing the Hotai Hotel.
It turns out that Hu Jianbang also arrived in Nanjing five years ago, which was the same time as Chen Maofeng and others arrived in Nanjing.
After Hu Jianbang arrived in Nanjing, he did not stay in Nanjing city (inside the city walls). Instead, he rented a small courtyard along the street in Nanchenggang, where he and Wang Zhanshun ran a small shop.
The Nanchenggang area is indeed quite prosperous because there is a train station, but because it is outside the city, the local security is not very good.
But there is a train station in Nanchenggang after all, so Yao Jiange still has some industries there, and there are brothers stationed there.
When Lin Mo asked for assistance in investigating the situation at the Hetai Hotel, he initially only investigated in Nanjing City, but after several days of continuous investigation, nothing was found.
The people responsible for checking the news had no choice but to look outside Nanjing, and their first target was the dock station outside Nanjing.
During this investigation out of the city, Hu Jianbang in the photo was recognized by members of the Youth Gang at Nanchenggang Railway Station.
However, at that time, his name was not Hu Jianbang, but Sun Yanbing, and Wang Zhanshun at that time played just an ordinary waiter, not any relative of Hu Jianbang.
Seeing that Hu Jianbang changed his name, Lin Mo was a little confused. After all, this kind of behavior would arouse others' suspicion.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo continued to read. When he saw behind him, there was a group of thieves who had moved here. Because the small courtyard rented by Hu Jian's gang was large, he thought that Hu Jianbang must be very rich, and took advantage of Hu Jianbang and Wang Zhanshun to go out to purchase goods.
, ransacked the small courtyard, and Lin Mo suddenly realized.
Because after it was stolen this time, when Hu Jianbang found out, he hurriedly moved out of here without even calling the police.
Not many days later, Hotai Hotel was established.
Seeing this, Lin Mo guessed that Hu Jianbang was frightened by the thief's visit at that time. After all, their identity should be liaison personnel, and there must be something like a radio station in their house.
As a result, Hu Jianbang felt so threatened that he left the place in a hurry without even reporting to the police. Moreover, his name change must have something to do with it.
After reading these situations, especially Hu Jianbang's behavior after facing the thief, Lin Mo was sure that there must be something wrong with Hu Jianbang and others. After all, no normal person would deal with a thief like him.
After reading the situation of Hetai Hotel, Lin Mo handed this information to others, picked up the information on the pier and read it.
There is a lot of information on the pier. In addition to the information about the small steamer that Chen Shirong and the others took, there is also information about other people, including Wang Shoufei and others.
Lin Mo first looked through other people's information and found that these were indeed information to rule out suspicion, because many of these people boarded ships around Nanjing, and when they boarded the ship, they also had their
The family members send each other off, so the possibility of being a Japanese spy is very small.
This was the situation for Wang Shoufei and others. According to the owner of the small steamer that Wang Shoufei and others took, they boarded the ship at the dock of a small town, and a group of people came to see them off.
And the ship owner can obviously tell whether these people are Wang Shoufei's family members. After all, in this parting scene, the parties involved must be showing their true feelings. If they are fake, a discerning person can tell it at a glance.
Seeing these situations, Lin Mo felt relieved, because this meant that Lin Mo's judgment was not wrong.
After reading about the others, Lin Mo picked up the information of Chen Shirong and others and read it in detail.
The person who wrote this information was obviously more careful than when he wrote the previous information. The situation of Chen Shirong and others was recorded in detail. From the time Chen Shirong and others boarded the ship to the time when they unloaded the cargo, everything was recorded in detail.
recorded it.
After reading the situation recalled by the ship owner and crew, Lin Mo found that Chen Shirong and others were indeed very cautious. From the beginning to the end, they never aroused the suspicion of Panzhu and others.
Despite this, Lin Mo still discovered something from these situations.
Lin Mo discovered two things from the descriptions of the ship owner and crew members. One was from the words of a crew member. He said, "Chen Shirong should be a good person, because other people respect Chen Shirong."
At first glance, there seems to be nothing wrong with what he said, but if you think about it carefully, you can find that something is wrong here.
Because the crew members think Chen Shirong is a nice person, it must be because he treats his subordinates and even the crew members very well.
But in this case, other people's reaction should be to get along very harmoniously with Chen Shirong, and they should not use the word "respect".
After all, Chen Shirong and Liu Deping are from the same caravan. They usually get along with each other and are very familiar people. In this case, if Chen Shirong treats them well, they should be very close to Chen Shirong, not very close.
Respect.
The occurrence of this situation shows that the environment that people like Chen Shirong were in before should be a place where hierarchies were very serious, and this is how Japan was governed, especially in Japan's military government, where the hierarchy was even more strict. p>
The second thing Lin Mo discovered also proved this guess.
The second thing Lin Mo discovered was the work and rest problems of Chen Shirong and others.
Lin Mo found out from the words of the ship owner and crew that they all said that Chen Shirong and others would usually get up very early. In many cases, Chen Shirong and others had already been up for a long time before they got up.
When he saw these words, Lin Mo noticed something strange, because people who can maintain this kind of early rise must either have strong self-control and usually wake up early.
Another situation is that these people are already accustomed to this kind of work and rest, which is a habit developed before.
The place where this habit is developed is most likely a place with very strict discipline like the military, and it is also the kind of military with very strict requirements.
We must know that in this era, such a disciplined army is rare in China, and only our party and a small number of government elites have it.
Thinking back to their various behaviors, the possibility that these people are from these two sides is basically non-existent.
As a result, the only thing Lin Mo could think of was the Japanese military. Although Japanese spy organizations are not necessarily military, spy organizations have very high requirements for the military quality of their personnel.
The members inside are either selected by the army or trained by themselves. But no matter which case they are, they have to be exposed to military training. In this way, the traces of these trainings will remain.
On these spies.
After thinking about these situations, Lin Mo opened his mouth and told his teacher and others what he had discovered.
