Chapter 63: Meeting Xiao Hexuan

Back at the secret stronghold, Zhang Junxian had returned. Luo Qiwei asked: "How was the investigation at Tiefo Temple?"

"Team leader, when I went there, the Iron Buddha Temple was destroyed by fire for nearly half a month. It is said that all the monks were burned to death."

"Have you checked the cause of the fire? Did anyone escape?"

"I made a special trip to the police station and retrieved the file. It was recorded in the file that the fire was caused by the incense candles in the temple being overturned. Because it was late at night, no one was spared."

It was really a cruel method. Judging from the time, the time when the fire broke out was shortly after Huang Chun was arrested.

It seems that some people are afraid that the secret will be leaked, so they simply kill people to silence them. What can be more direct than a fire?

The line to Tiefo Temple is abandoned, so let’s move on to the next suspected target, adjutant Zhang Chao.

Huang Chun was bribed by the Japanese and acted as a mole. It was not a pity to die, but there was one person who seemed to have a great relationship with his bribery.

That is Zhang Chao.

There was no evidence, just a feeling. Coupled with Shi Lifu's reminder, Luo Qiwei felt that following this person might yield unexpected gains.

"Go and follow the adjutant Zhang Chao. Remember, don't let him find out. Record all his movements throughout the day."

Zhang Junxian had just left, and Xu Zhiyi and Feng Haomiao came back. They looked excited, obviously things were going well.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered and sat down, Xu Zhiyi said: "Team leader, Xiao Hexuan has promised us that we can enter the headquarters for investigation."

"He must have a request, right?"

"The team leader really has a keen eye. Commander Xiao's youngest son Xiao Zheng'an suddenly fell ill. Doctors in Hangzhou were helpless. As a result, Lao Feng took action and quickly stabilized the condition. That's why Commander Xiao agreed to let us investigate."

"Old Feng, isn't Xiao Zhengan just sick?"

Feng Haomiao nodded and replied: "Yes, his symptoms look very similar to acute abdomen, but after my examination, it should be peach poisoning. After symptomatic treatment, the symptoms have been relieved."

Luo Qiwei knew about this plant. His teacher Huang Tianqi told him that if someone had a toothache, they would use this plant to relieve the pain.

The effect is very good, but the plant itself is highly toxic. A small amount can cause heart discomfort, severe abdominal pain, vomiting and other symptoms.

It looks like an acute abdomen, but if it is not treated in time or if it is overdosed, it can be fatal.

"It was found out that it was eaten by accident or poisoned by someone?"

Feng Haomiao replied hesitantly: "It is rare to see this kind of plant in Hangzhou. All of them are cultivated by some wealthy families."

"That means there is no possibility of accidental ingestion?"

"Not necessarily. Xiao Zheng'an's symptoms are at most caused by eating a leaf. Otherwise, even if I arrive, I probably won't be able to save him."

The fire at Tiefo Temple and Xiao Zhengqi's poisoning seemed unrelated, but Luo Qiwei always felt that something was wrong.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Tomorrow, Lao Feng and I will go to the garrison headquarters. Xu Zhiyi, you go follow the lieutenant colonel and staff officer Luo Ziqi and find out his movement track."

After the two left, Luo Qiwei wrote the names of Zhang Chao, Luo Ziqi, and Huang Chun on the paper. After thinking about it, he wrote Xiao Zhengan's name.

Then on the side I wrote Tiefo Temple, Qingyang Teahouse, and Yongan Dance Floor.

After thinking about it, he crossed out Qingyang Tea House, connected Zhang Chao to Yong'an Dance Floor, and connected Luo Ziqi and Huang Chun to Tiefo Temple.

Only Xiao Zhengan was left. Maybe he really ate it by mistake, or maybe someone did it on purpose.

As for Shi Lifu and Liu Aihua, Luo Qiwei did not write it down on paper, but secretly drew a line in his heart.

If it was done intentionally, what was the person’s purpose?

In short, these clues seem to be a mess at present, but Luo Qiwei feels that as long as one thread is sorted out, everything can be solved easily.

Around eight o'clock in the evening, the people who went out to investigate those places also came back, and the background of the places was basically investigated clearly.

Those with backgrounds from foreign chambers of commerce and local senior officials also have backgrounds.

Tian Yi pointed to the words Yong'an Dance Floor and said: "This dance floor is opened by a cousin of Police Chief Liang Yingwu, but his front desk manager Luo Gan seems to be from the Party Affairs Investigation Department."

Isn't the Party Affairs Investigation Section the same as the later famous Zhongtong? Is this dance club still connected with the Zhongtong?

Luo Qiwei suddenly remembered that when he was in Nanjing, when he searched the Chamber of Commerce and arrested Takeda Nobu, the Japanese spies actually went to Zhongtong's secret stronghold.

If it hadn't been for the danger warning function, he might have been lying quietly underground now...

Due to the influence of some film and television works in his previous life, his sense of the two special agencies of the Central Military and Military Command was not very good.

However, after joining the Military Intelligence Service, he discovered that this organization may not be as good as it seems, but he was sincere in fighting the Japanese.

For this reason, Luo Qiwei's perception of this organization is slowly changing. In addition, he is currently in this organization and is slowly understanding it.

As for the Party Affairs Investigation Section, I don’t feel so good. If I remember correctly, the infamous No. 76 will be a pseudo-government spy organization mainly established by renegade Central Unification agents.

Let’s get back to the topic, Luo Gan sneaked into the Yong’an dance floor. Did he have a mission or was he just lurking?

Luo Qiwei couldn't control that much and assigned a task. Sun Siyi monitored the Yong'an dance floor, and the other two also went to monitor the more suspicious places.

Early the next morning, Luo Qiwei took Feng Haomiao to the Hangzhou Garrison Headquarters. After asking for instructions, the guards let them in.

Not far away, he saw Xiao Hexuan standing not far away. When he saw Feng Haomiao, he said happily: "Dr. Feng, thank you very much. Last night, Zheng'an ate something and his stomach didn't hurt so much. No more vomiting."

Feng Haomiao nodded and said, "That's good. I'll come over today to show him. By the way, Commander Xiao, this is our team leader Luo Qiwei."

Luo Qiwei hurriedly saluted: "Hello, Commander Xiao."

The smile on Xiao Hexuan's face disappeared and he returned to seriousness. He stared at Luo Qiwei and said, "If you hadn't seen Dr. Feng's face, you would have had no way to come in to investigate."

"But now, you can investigate as you like, but there are some restricted areas that you can't enter."

I called an adjutant and asked him to accompany Luo Qiwei around the headquarters.

Luo Qiwei didn't say anything, followed the adjutant, and started walking around the headquarters.

The adjutant had a bad look on Luo Qiwei, but thinking about it, at this time, the reputation of the Military Intelligence Office in the army was not very good.

Many people think that they are just idle people who only hide in the dark and dare not come out to fight with real swords and guns.

Luo Qiwei was unable to reverse the prejudices of these people, and he was too lazy to say...
