Back in the office, Li Yunsheng called Zhou Wen and Zhou Wu over. The two brothers were the ones responsible for the hunt last night, and they might be able to learn something about the situation.
After the two brothers arrived, Li Yunsheng asked about the situation and said, "A total of fourteen people should have left from the cliff last night. In addition to the dead and those caught by you, there should be three more people who escaped."
Zhou Wen quickly said: "Section Chief, it's not that we don't do our best, it's that Purple Mountain is not small. Besides, in such a big operation, it is normal for a few fish to slip through the net."
Li Yunsheng said calmly: "It doesn't matter if it's just a few small fish, but among the people who ran away was Kazuo Ono, the director of the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course, so we have no choice but to ignore him. If we catch this person, we can take care of him."
Get rid of the Japanese intelligence network in central China."
Hearing that Kazuo Ono was among the people who ran away, Zhou Wen immediately became excited and said excitedly: "Section Chief, this is a big fish. Let's take people to find it now."
Li Yunsheng said calmly: "Kazuo Ono must want to escape back to the Japanese Embassy now, but there are always our people near the embassy. It is not easy for him to get in. I guess Kazuo Ono will hide near the embassy and observe."
According to the situation, take a few prisoners who know him and search there now. If you can't find him, search the entire Nanjing city."
The two brothers nodded quickly, and then led people to find Kazuo Ono.
Just when Li Yunsheng sent people to look for Kazuo Ono, inside the Japanese embassy, Saburo Sato was also anxiously thinking about countermeasures. He already knew what happened last night, but he only knew a rough idea. Saburo Sato had already sent people out and wanted to
They helped Ono Kazuo and others, but now as soon as the members of the expedition team go out, they will be followed, which is of no use at all.
When Sato Saburo was helpless, Makino Kenji walked in and sighed: "Sato Sato, have you thought of any countermeasures? I just received the news from the Ambassador. Ono-dono was not arrested, nor was he arrested yesterday.
He died in the late operation, and now we have to find a way to bring him back to the consulate."
Saburo Sato said depressedly: "Professor, I also want to bring the section chief to the embassy as soon as possible, but now as soon as our people go out, they will be followed by Chinese agents. I went out personally and walked around, and found that there were people near the consulate.
There are many Chinese agents in plainclothes. Under such circumstances, it is estimated that Section Chief Ono would not dare to show up at all."
Makino Kenji frowned and said: "Then what should we do? We can't ignore Mr. Ono. The Chinese people have now known the news and are trying their best to find Mr. Ono. And basically all our people have been arrested, and all the hiding places have been
After being discovered by the Chinese, Mr. Ono has no safe place to hide. If this continues, he will be found sooner or later."
Saburo Sato said categorically: "We must find Section Chief Ono, otherwise we will not comply with the instructions from above, and if Section Chief Ono is caught by the Chinese, the intelligence network in Central China will be in danger. We must never let such a thing happen," and
There is a reason Saburo Sato did not say, that is, this operation has completely failed. If Kazuo Ono dies or is arrested, he will bear the responsibility, which is why he is so anxious to find Kazuo Ono.
Makino Kenji didn't know what Saburo Sato was thinking, so he asked: "Then what should we do now? We are being closely watched by the Chinese and cannot respond to Mr. Ono at all."
After hearing Kenji Makino's words, Saburo Sato was helpless and had no choice but to walk around the room, thinking about countermeasures in his mind. After a few minutes, he finally came up with an idea and said calmly: "Chief Ono
I must be thinking of a way to get back to the embassy. Maybe I am near the embassy right now. Now I have to ask the Ambassador to personally come and take care of him. I don’t think the Chinese people dare to keep an eye on the Ambassador too much.”
Makino Kenji thought for a while and said in agreement: "That's okay. After all, as the ambassador, the Chinese people don't dare to go too far."
The two people thought of a countermeasure, and Saburo Sato went to the Japanese ambassador for help.
The Japanese ambassador did not hesitate to receive Saburo Sato's request. After all, Japanese soldiers had a high status at this time, so he took the people out directly and drove a car filled with plaster gas around the embassy.
Someone soon reported this news to Li Yunsheng. When he learned that the Japanese ambassador actually came out to respond in person, Li Yunsheng was helpless. The Japanese ambassador had a different identity and could not make it too obvious, so he ordered his subordinates to follow the Japanese ambassador at a distance.
Che, if you see Ono Kazuo asking for help from the Japanese ambassador, then kill him on the spot. Anyway, Ono Kazuo sneaked into Nanjing secretly, and the Japanese can't say anything. Although this is a pity, it is better than letting this person run away.
At about six o'clock in the evening, brothers Zhou Wen and Zhou Wu came back with disappointed expressions. They lowered their heads and said to Li Yunsheng: "Section Chief, we have searched the area near the Japanese Embassy three times and also searched the city, but there is still nothing."
Find someone.”
When Li Yunsheng heard the news, he couldn't help but frowned, wondering where Ono Kazuo would be hiding. For him now, the safest place is the Japanese Embassy. He should find a way to return there, but the Japanese Ambassador personally
No one was found when they came out, indicating that the two parties had lost contact. The Japanese in the embassy did not know the whereabouts of Ono Kazuo, so they ordered the Zhou brothers: "You and your people will continue to guard near the embassy and keep an eye on it 24 hours a day."
, Ono Kazuo is only safe if he returns to the embassy, so he will definitely find a way to go back. It is easy to be exposed during the day, and maybe he will find an opportunity to go back at night."
After listening to Li Yunsheng's words, the two brothers nodded, and then went to the consulate to stare.
The next morning, Zhou Wen came to Li Yunsheng with dark circles under his eyes and said tiredly: "Section Chief, the brothers have been on guard all night and no one was found."
Li Yunsheng was also wondering at this time where Ono Kazuo would be. After all, their strongholds had been breached and there was no place for him to hide.
At this time, Zhang Hao knocked on the door and walked in: "Section Chief, what to do with Li Taiguo? Now we have found out clearly that he was indeed coerced by the Japanese."
Li Yunsheng then remembered this person. He thought that this person was very thoughtful and had spent some time with Kazuo Ono. He might have some ideas, so he said, "Bring him here, I want to ask him something."
After hearing Li Yunsheng's words, Zhang Hao hurriedly went out, and within ten minutes, he brought Li Taiguo to the office.
As soon as Li Taiguo entered the office, he explained to Li Yunsheng: "Sir, I really did not conspire with the Japanese. When we went down the mountain, I cooperated with Chief Zhang to capture two Japanese. I can be considered a small credit.
.”
Seeing this ordinary-looking old man, Li Yunsheng chuckled and said, "But after all, you took the Japanese to find the treasure. In this case, it is not an exaggeration to accuse you of treason."
Li Taiguo said quickly: "But I don't know what happened to the Japanese. They are really unjust. Please give me a lighter sentence, sir." Seeing Li Yunsheng's expression, Li Taiguo knew that he should be able to pass the test, so he was not too anxious.
Li Yunsheng said seriously: "It's okay if you want to be dealt with lightly, but it's not enough to just rely on your cooperation to catch two Japanese. We need you to be guilty and meritorious." Li Yunsheng knew that this old man had too many thoughts, so he gave him
Some pressure.
Li Taiguo was stunned. He didn't expect Li Yunsheng to suddenly change his face. However, when he saw what the young officer said, he knew that he had a place to use him. There was no room for bargaining anyway, so he said, "What do you want me to do, sir?"
Please make it clear."
Li Yunsheng said unhurriedly: "A few of the Japanese who stole the treasure last night escaped, especially their leader who also successfully escaped. Now I don't know where he is hiding. If you want to be punished and meritorious service, you have to kill them."
find out."
Li Taiguo didn't expect this request, but it didn't make him embarrassed. The only thing he was worried about was that he couldn't find anyone. But now there was no other way, so he had to say: "Then please tell me the specific situation, sir, so that I can
Think of ways to."
Li Yunsheng glanced at Zhou Wen, who immediately responded and explained the situation completely.
After hearing this, Li Taiguo immediately lowered his head and began to think deeply. After five minutes, he raised his head and said doubtfully: "Sir's idea is correct, but how can we not find anyone?"
Li Yunsheng said calmly: "This is something I can't figure out, but you have had contact with Ono Kazuo, so you should have some knowledge of this person. Where do you think he will be hiding?"
Li Taiguo carefully recalled the process of contact with Ono Kazuo. After a while, he seemed to have thought of something, and said carefully: "Sir, this Ono Kazuo is very cunning. He knows that the embassy is the safest after something happens.
But we can also imagine this. With his cunning, he will be able to guess that we are searching near the embassy and will send people to guard him, so he may not go back now."
Li Yunsheng agreed: "What you said is very possible, but if he wants to leave Nanjing safely, there is only one way, which is to return to the embassy."
Li Taiguo asked back: "But sir, the embassy won't run away. Kazuo Ono can go anytime, and we can't keep searching like this. Could it be that he didn't enter the city at all, but hid in a safe place and waited?"
In a few days, the search will be less strict and we will quietly return to the embassy."
Hearing Li Taiguo's words, Li Yunsheng stood up suddenly and said affirmatively: "You are very likely to say that Ono Kazuo is not an ordinary person. With his cunning, he can definitely guess that we are also looking for him, and Nanjing City is ours."
Even if the Japanese in the embassy wanted to take him back to Nanjing, it would not be easy, so he might not have returned to Nanjing at all. After all, it was much safer outside the city than in the city, and it was easier to hide."
Li Taiguo said calmly: "Sir, you are right. Ono Kazuo is very likely to be outside the city, so he will either hide in a village near Purple Mountain, or continue to hide in Purple Mountain. After all, he has no time to go far.
.”
Thinking that Ono Kazuo might be there, Li Yunsheng immediately called the Operations Department to borrow some manpower, and asked Zhou Wen to continue to keep an eye on the embassy, and then personally led people to search outside Nanjing."
