After leaving Okazaki Kazuo's home, Li Yunsheng went directly back to Fengtian Hotel. After entering the room, he began to think about what had just happened.
Judging from the previous situation, Li Yunsheng can be sure that Okazaki Kazuo has some friendship with him, but this friendship is still very weak.
Especially since Okazaki Kazuo did not reveal his identity, Li Yunsheng felt that he was not an easy person to make friends with.
After thinking for a while, Li Yunsheng decided to slowly approach Okazaki Kazuo. After all, he was a senior executive of Zhengjin Bank, and he was probably the president. Even if his vigilance was poor, he would not be a fool. If he contacted him too frequently,
Yes, the other party will definitely be suspicious.
Early the next morning, Li Yunsheng gave Zhang Hao a few instructions, then went out alone and came to the vicinity of Zhengjin Bank again, staring at Okazaki Kazuo's every move.
It took three days for Li Yunsheng to understand a little bit about Okazaki Kazuo's behavior, but what was surprising was that this little devil either worked in the bank or went home to rest, and never went anywhere else.
This kind of two-point and one-line action pattern gives Li Yunsheng a headache, because it makes it a little more difficult for him to continue to contact Okazaki Kazuo.
Li Yunsheng's original plan was to keep an eye on Okazaki Kazuo's whereabouts and then find a suitable place to meet him by chance. In this way, he could pretend to be familiar with him and approach the Japanese again.
However, Okazaki Kazuo's behavior made Li Yunsheng feel that this idea was not very reliable. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that the time was still short and he might not be able to observe anything. He had to observe for a long time.
Anyway, the matter was not very urgent. Li Yunsheng felt that a few more people should be sent to keep an eye on Okazaki Kazuo. It would be too tiring and easy to make mistakes on his own.
Early the next morning, Li Yunsheng led several of his men to Okazaki Kazuo's residence and hid in a nearby place.
Just after seven o'clock, Okazaki Kazuo went out to work. Li Yunsheng took this opportunity to hand over the target person to his subordinates, and then carefully ordered that he must keep an eye on this person's whereabouts, but not be noticed.
After making arrangements, Li Yunsheng returned to Fengtian Hotel alone and began to think about whether he could find information from other sources.
At this time, Zhang Hao came to Li Yunsheng's room and said, "District Chief, don't you have any news yet?"
Li Yunsheng said calmly: "There is no clue about the matter. This time it seems to be a protracted battle."
Zhang Hao sighed and said softly: "District Chief, why don't we use the intelligence agents from the headquarters and let them investigate."
In the past few days, not only did Li Yunsheng leave early and come back late, Zhang Hao also took a few people into action, taking advantage of the opportunity to buy specialties, to inquire without leaving a trace what the Japanese valued, and the most important thing was to keep it secret.
But until now, nothing has been gained. After all, the Northeast has been occupied for too long. Under the high-pressure policy of the Japanese, many people have the mentality that more things are worse than less things, and they don't care much about any strange places.
After hearing Zhang Hao's suggestion, Li Yunsheng said calmly: "The intelligence agents assigned to me by the bureau did not break into the puppet government or the Japanese at all. They just pretended to be ordinary people and small businessmen, which may not have any effect.
.
What's more, these people have been lurking in the Northeast for a long time, but they haven't done anything big. They can't even complete some tasks assigned by the headquarters in time, so I don't trust their abilities.
The most important point is that the current situation of the Nationalist Government is very bad, and in the Northeast, it can be said that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. If someone cannot resist the temptation and secretly joins the Japanese, then we will rashly activate these people. It is possible for the Japanese to know our purpose."
It's not that Li Yunsheng is too suspicious, it's just that the agents in the Northeast are not very lively and have not made any achievements. Although there are reasons why the Military Command headquarters does not pay attention to this place, the agents lurking in the Northeast must have average abilities, and at least they are passively on standby. .
Hearing Li Yunsheng's words, Zhang Hao was slightly stunned, and then said: "It turns out that the district chief is not worried about these people. I asked you why you didn't contact them after you arrived in Shenyang."
Li Yunsheng sighed and said: "The current situation is getting more and more difficult. We cannot rely too much on the loyalty of others. We should rely on ourselves first. When this matter comes to an end, I will contact the intelligence agents in the Northeast."
The reason why Li Yunsheng is worried about the intelligence agents in the Northeast is because these people have no backers at the headquarters, otherwise they would not be thrown into the Northeast, where the Japanese control the strongest.
As a result, these lurking personnel in the Northeast naturally have no good impression of the Military Command Headquarters, so their loyalty is definitely not high. In addition, with limited funds and insufficient benefits, no one knows what these people are thinking.
Zhang Hao had no objection to Li Yunsheng's decision. After all, it was better to take such a secret operation and keep the Japanese in the dark than to take risks. Even if the risk was very low, it was not worth it, so he said: "Then let's rely on ourselves. It just takes a little longer.”
Li Yunsheng smiled, and then spoke calmly: "Before coming to the Northeast again, I knew that this matter would not be easy to handle, and the bureau chief's attitude was not particularly anxious, because he also knew that we were in the Northeast. Our power is limited, even if we fail to complete the task in the end, no one will say anything."
Although Li Yunsheng wanted to go all out to complete this task, he also knew how difficult it was. After all, a country's currency printing can be said to be the highest state secret.
Even the current National Government's legal currency printing information is only the highest-level information, which ordinary people cannot see at all, let alone a relatively developed country like Japan.
Therefore, before coming to the Northeast again, Li Yunsheng did not guarantee to the bureau that he would be able to complete the task. He only said that he would go all out.
The boss was also very reasonable this time and did not push too hard. He just asked Li Yunsheng to do his best.
After hearing Li Yunsheng's words, Zhang Hao felt a little more confident and stopped being anxious.
After more than ten days, Li Yunsheng and others still had no clues, but the people who were keeping an eye on Okazaki Kazuo finally brought back a piece of news.
It turned out that during this period of time, Okazaki Kazuo had visited two brothels alone, and he was looking for the same woman.
This brothel was run by the Japanese, and it was not a traditional brothel where skin and flesh were traded, but a so-called Japanese geisha.
Li Yunsheng only knew a little bit about Japanese geishas. He only knew that these geishas made money by performing, which was not very obscene.
After receiving this news, Li Yunsheng immediately knew that this was an opportunity, an opportunity to get close to Okazaki Kazuo again.
After finding out the location of the geisha house, Li Yunsheng went out, wanting to check the situation and wait for a chance encounter with Okazaki Kazuo in the future.
The Geisha House is located in Tiexi District of Shenyang City. Although it is not as prosperous as the core area, it is still very good.
When Li Yunsheng arrived at his destination, he saw a simple building with antique decorations, especially the few lanterns hanging at the gate, which were very charming and made people know at a glance that it was not a low-class place.
This geisha house is called the Jiudan House. It is the best place in Shenyang City and is very famous.
Stepping into the door of Jiuduan's house, Li Yunsheng saw that the decoration style inside was similar to that of an ancient high-end inn, and it also had the feeling of a small bridge and flowing water.
The geisha house is very large, so each private room inside is not close to each other, and the sound insulation effect is very good. Li Yunsheng walked along and heard almost no sound.
Soon a waiter saw Li Yunsheng, walked over quickly, and asked softly: "Sir, are you just a person?"
Li Yunsheng nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I'm just a person. I heard that the geisha here are very good, and each one has unique talents, so I came to appreciate them."
Although most of the people who came to see the geisha came in groups of three or two, like Li Yunsheng, there were also many who came alone, such as Kazuo Okazaki, so the waiter did not find it strange and said respectfully: "Sir, please follow me.
I'll come." After saying that, he led the way.
Li Yunsheng walked slowly with the waiter while carefully looking at the surrounding environment. After a cursory observation, he guessed that the consumption here must be ridiculously high.
Soon the waiter led Li Yunsheng to a private room, then took out a notebook and handed it over respectfully: "Sir, can you take a look and see which young lady you need to accompany me."
Looking at the notebook in front of him, Li Yunsheng was a little surprised. He didn't know what this notebook meant. After all, he had never been to such an occasion.
Although he was a little surprised, Li Yunsheng reacted quickly, took the notebook naturally, and opened it for observation at will.
When he opened the book, Li Yunsheng was very surprised. On every page of the book, there was a black and white photo of a woman, with her name and the projects she was good at written below.
Seeing this kind of thing, Li Yunsheng felt a little emotional. He thought that this simple method had raised the geisha's status a lot, and he didn't have to meet every customer, which made the geisha's work much easier.
Because he had a clear goal, Li Yunsheng pretended to look through it casually, but he was actually looking for the geisha who had met Okazaki Kazuo twice.
Surprisingly, Li Yunsheng flipped through the entire book from beginning to end and didn't see the woman's name, so he asked the waiter: "Is that all there is?"
Upon hearing Li Yunsheng's words, the waiter immediately replied: "Sir, this is only part of it. Isn't it that you are satisfied with it?"
Li Yunsheng said with a smile: "That's not true, it's just that I know a geisha who is very famous, but I didn't see his name."
The waiter said gently: "So that's it. Could it be that Sir came to see this lady specially?"
Li Yunsheng nodded and answered affirmatively: "Yes, I heard about this young lady's reputation, so I came here because I wanted to appreciate his performance."
