The information from the Third Intelligence Room is actually accurate.
However, the so-called "new webmaster" was fake from the beginning.
Yang Yushan's action was of course impossible to succeed.
Although the afternoon operation failed, Lu Chengzhou was certain that Chen Shugong did leave an insider at Haigu Station.
The actions of Intelligence Room Three were exactly the information provided by this insider.
But, is this insider Yuan Qingyuan?
When Lu Chengzhou went to No. 51 Road at night, he received the information given to him by Zeng Zilian.
Lu Chengzhou did not expect that Zhou Fengchun would give him this task.
Zeng Zilian's temptation has indeed explained the problem.
If the "new webmaster" hadn't come out at the appointed time, it seemed that no one from the Third Intelligence Room could be found.
Yuan Qingyuan lives in an unknown small lane between Cumberland Road and Edinburgh Road. At eleven o'clock in the evening, he has gone to bed.
Hearing the rhythmic knocking on the door outside, Yuan Qingyuan suddenly woke up.
"Dong dong, dong dong dong."
Knocking on the door rhythmically, twice and three times.
This is the military commander's communication code, telling the people inside that the other party is one of our own.
"Hello, is Lao Zhao at home?" Lu Chengzhou asked in a deep voice.
"Not here." Yuan Qingyuan opened the door. Although he couldn't see clearly who the other party was, the code was correct.
"Does he still sell vegetables?" Lu Chengzhou asked again.
"Yes, something happened?" Yuan Qingyuan said.
"I want to invite him to watch a movie." Lu Chengzhou said in a deep voice.
"Come in and talk." Yuan Qingyuan stepped aside and invited Lu Chengzhou to enter the room.
"I am a match." Lu Chengzhou's voice was a little hoarse.
His appearance, skin, voice, and even the way he walks have changed.
The only thing I can't change is my height.
It’s just that Lu Chengzhou was of average height. Men of his height could be seen everywhere in the British Concession.
"Hello, Deputy Station Master Huo." Yuan Qingyuan put down the oil lamp in his hand and said respectfully.
Most of the houses in the British Concession had electricity, but his house had no wiring. After all, the cost of a few yuan a month was not low.
"How is your recent work?" Lu Chengzhou asked, sitting on the stool beside the table.
"Fortunately." Yuan Qingyuan quickly picked up the kettle on the table and poured a glass of water for Lu Chengzhou. "There is no boiling water or tea at home, so we have to make do with it."
"It's okay, do you want to smoke?" Lu Chengzhou took out a cigarette, took out one and handed it to Yuan Qingyuan.
"Thank you, Deputy Station Master Huo." Yuan Qingyuan stretched out three fingers, accurately grabbed a cigarette, held it in his mouth, picked up the glass cover of the oil lamp, took a puff, and lit it.
Lu Chengzhou took out a match and slowly lit a fire for himself.
Only then did Yuan Qingyuan see Match's face clearly. His teeth were somewhat exposed and his face was sallow. He looked about fifty years old.
"Did Team Leader Zeng assign you a task during this period?" Lu Chengzhou gently took away the cup in front of him. As an agent, he would not eat outside easily, especially if a colleague handed it to him.
things, even if Yuan Qingyuan is his subordinate.
"Yes. Team Leader Zeng asked me to find out the arrival time of the train coming from Hankou. Today, he asked me to go to the Italian Concession to pick up the new station master." Yuan Qingyuan said respectfully.
"During this period, apart from performing the tasks of Team Leader Zeng, have you had any contact with anyone else?" Lu Chengzhou asked in a deep voice.
This issue is very critical. He can grasp the intelligence of the military command and military police units and make a more accurate judgment.
Judging from the current information available, the possibility that Yuan Qingyuan is a traitor is low.
The most likely possibility is that Yuan Qingyuan's whereabouts were grasped by the Third Intelligence Room, or that he accidentally disclosed the mission.
"Others?" Yuan Qingyuan frowned, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Let's do this. Introduce all the people you come into contact with. No matter they are small businessmen or hawkers, or relatives and friends, no one can be left out." Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
"Deputy Station Chief Huo, what happened?" Yuan Qingyuan asked nervously when he saw Lu Chengyi's serious face.
"After you left the Lishun Hotel today, Yang Yushan from the Intelligence Room Three of the Military Police Division rushed to the Lishun Hotel with her people and took the new stationmaster away." Lu Chengzhou glanced at Yuan Qingyuan and said slowly.
Although Yuan Qingyuan's eyes showed nervousness, he did not flinch.
Lu Chengzhou has been a patrolman for several years and comes into contact with countless people on the street every day.
Whether he is a good person or a bad person, you can tell a rough idea from the look in the other person's eyes.
Yuan Qingyuan's behavior was consistent with the expression of a subordinate when seeing his superior.
Moreover, telling Yuan Qingyuan the truth not only shows trust in him, but also helps to find out the real reason.
"What?!" Yuan Qingyuan stood up suddenly, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Sit down and don't speak so loudly. I know this matter has nothing to do with you." Lu Chengzhou stretched out his hand and pressed it in the air.
"I only told one person when I received the mission yesterday." Yuan Qingyuan sat down and put his hands on his face, his face full of regret.
"Is it An Mengbo?" Lu Chengzhou said suddenly with his heart moving.
In the entire Haigu Station, apart from Lu Chengzhou and Zeng Zilian, the only ones left were An Mengbo from the internal transportation department and accountant Huang Wenmai.
There are also two intelligence officers from the intelligence team: Yuan Qingyuan and Shi Xichun.
The only person Yuan Qingyuan had access to was Shi Xichun.
"Deputy Station Master Huo Yingming." Yuan Qingyuan sighed.
"Just call me Mr. Huo from now on." Lu Chengzhou suddenly said that Yuan Qingyuan always called him "Deputy Webmaster Huo". If outsiders heard it, it would be easy to leak the news.
"Mr. Huo, I feel sorry for the party and the state, and I request punishment." Yuan Qingyuan suddenly threw the cigarette butt to the ground and said sincerely.
"Of course you will be punished. You are unorganized and unprincipled. How can you casually tell others the tasks assigned by the superior?" Lu Chengzhou said sternly.
"I know I was wrong." Yuan Qingyuan said.
"Fortunately, no big harm was caused." Lu Chengzhou sighed and said.
"The new webmaster has been arrested..." Yuan Qingyuan looked confused. Because of his mistake, the new webmaster was arrested. This will definitely lead to a military court.
"The new webmaster is fake. This is Team Leader Zeng's assessment of you." Lu Chengzhou said comfortingly.
"Really? That's great." Yuan Qingyuan said happily.
"Tell me about Shi Xichun. If I guess correctly, did you also tell him about the last time you went to the station?" Lu Chengzhou asked.
"Yes. Mr. Huo, is Shi Xichun a spy?" Yuan Qingyuan asked.
"There must be a traitor among you. If it's not him, it must be you." Lu Chengzhou said coldly.
"It's not me, it's not me." Yuan Qingyuan said hurriedly.
Only Shi Xichun and Yuan Qingyuan are left in the intelligence team. Even if their relationship was not so good at first, they have become closer because of this drastic change.
Yuan Qingyuan has to send half of his monthly salary back, so his life is relatively poor.
Shi Xichun was rich and often invited Yuan Qingyuan to drink and eat meat.
Yuan Qingyuan was very grateful and naturally told Shi Xichun everything he knew. He thought to himself that since both of them were from the intelligence team, there was no harm in talking about work matters.
"Fortunately, Shi Xichun didn't expect that he would be exposed so quickly, otherwise he would label you as a traitor and you wouldn't be able to wash it off even if you jumped into the Yellow River." Lu Chengzhou said coldly.
If Shi Xichun had been smarter, he would have positioned Yuan Qingyuan as a traitor from the beginning.
With the cooperation of the Third Intelligence Office, Shi Xichun could convince the military commander that Yuan Qingyuan was the traitor.
As long as the traitor is not exposed, once exposed, Yuan Qingyuan will become his scapegoat.
"Mr. Huo, I want to get rid of Shi Xichun with my own hands!" Yuan Qingyuan said solemnly.
He couldn't figure it out that Shi Xichun was actually a traitor. He almost caused a huge disaster. It was really difficult to get rid of the hatred in his heart unless he got rid of Shi Xichun.
"Who said we want to get rid of Shi Xichun?" Lu Chengzhou said with a sneer.
Although he was sure that Shi Xichun was the traitor, this matter still needed further proof.
Shi Xichun's identity cannot be easily determined based on what Yuan Qingyuan's family said.
Internal screening really needs to be cautious, not to easily accuse a good person, but also never to let go of a traitor.
"What should we do?" Yuan Qingyuan was speechless. He was confused by Lu Chengzhou.
"Your task is to pretend you don't know anything. If Shi Xichun invites you to drink, you should eat and drink. You can tell him any news you know through normal channels. However, you must not mention what I came to do tonight.
." Lu Chengzhou said thoughtfully.
He had to test Shi Xichun's true identity again.
If Shi Xichun is a traitor, it would not be appropriate to get rid of him right away.
Shi Xichun provided so much information to the Third Intelligence Office one after another, which shows that he has won the trust of Chen Shugong.
At this time, passing false information through the Third Intelligence Room of Shi Xichun will greatly reduce the arrogance of the Third Intelligence Room.
"Yes." Yuan Qingyuan said solemnly.
Zeng Zilian received the information from Match the next morning, telling her the content of her conversation with Yuan Qingyuan.
Although Match basically concluded that Shi Xichun was the real traitor, he still wanted to screen it again.
You must convince Shi Xichun, and you will have nothing to say when you show your cards to him.
At the same time, if Shi Xichun is a traitor, Match hopes to pass some false information to the Third Intelligence Room through Shi Xichun, and use Shi Xichun to attack the Third Intelligence Room.
Zeng Zilian is very interested in Match's plan, but now Zhou Fengchun is the webmaster, and this plan needs Zhou Fengchun's approval.
"Since it is confirmed that Shi Xichun is the traitor, why do we need to screen him? Isn't this just taking off his pants and farting? Isn't it unnecessary? If you don't see the traitor, the first priority is to get rid of it, so why keep it? What if he hears the news and runs back to the third intelligence room? This
Who will bear the responsibility? A deputy station manager who dares not even show his face?" Zhou Fengchun said with a sneer.
"It is indeed necessary to screen again. We cannot conclude that Shi Xichun is a traitor based on the words of Yuan Qingyuan's family. If Yuan Qingyuan is the traitor, who is the real traitor?" Zeng Zilian said worriedly.
"Shi Xichun can be screened once, but after the screening, he must be eliminated immediately. Internal enemies are the most hateful." Zhou Fengchun said coldly.
