Because of a piece of nuclear fission data, elite agents from various countries set their sights on Shanghai, especially the Japanese allies, and even sent people directly to Shanghai.
If it hadn't only happened three days ago, I'm afraid agents from other countries would have already arrived in Shanghai.
Li Yunsheng, a local snake, also began to investigate the matter, but there were no clues and the matter did not progress quickly.
After all, the information obtained by the Shanghai Station was limited. It was able to learn immediately that the Soviet secret service was in Shanghai because of Murakami's six-post tip.
However, the Japanese military attached great importance to this matter and even sent troops to blockade the dock. The military commanders had no choice at all. The only source of information was Murakami Rokuzhu.
Fortunately, the Soviet agents disappeared and the Japanese found nothing, so the Shanghai Station still has a good chance of getting this information.
It is by no means an easy task to seize food from a tiger's mouth under the noses of the Japanese, especially when there are no clues.
Li Yunsheng could only guess the Soviet agents' plans and thoughts through analysis.
After all, the Soviet agents who could steal nuclear fission data from the Americans were by no means stupid, let alone seeking their own death.
While Li Yunsheng was analyzing the situation, Saburo Hattori at the Shanghai pier was also frowning.
After receiving the order from the military headquarters, the Japanese Navy immediately dispatched two warships to take control of the Nariku.
Although the Nailu was almost arriving at the Shanghai pier at that time, it was still impossible for Soviet agents to escape by jumping into the sea at such a long distance.
However, after the Nairu arrived at the dock, the Japanese army searched for three days, but still no one was found.
So the Soviet agents disappeared, and Saburo Hattori was under great pressure.
Because many people know that the Soviet agents boarded the ship from Singapore, the Nailu did not stop the ship while it was traveling.
Therefore, it is impossible for Soviet agents to disappear without any sign. If there is a problem, it can only happen after approaching Shanghai.
Just when Saburo Hattori was frowning, a knock on the door woke him up.
Immediately afterwards, Murakami Rokuzhu, dressed in Lieutenant Colonel's uniform, appeared in front of Hattori Saburo.
"Don't have any clues yet?"
As soon as he saw Murakami's face, Saburo Hattori asked. After all, as a rear admiral, he could not personally direct the search.
"No!"
Murakami Rokuzhu shook his head, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
"Are the Army guys still searching?"
Hattori Saburo continued to ask, his tone a little complicated and a little hopeful...
"They are still searching and re-confirming the identity of everyone on the ship, as if they are worried that Soviet agents will change their identities and get involved."
"Hmph, if there is a problem with other people's identities, can our navy detect them?"
After the Nairu merchant ship docked, the Japanese Navy immediately investigated the identity of everyone, especially the passengers on the merchant ship, who were strictly investigated.
After all, Saburo Hattori was not stupid. He knew that Soviet agents would conceal their identities.
But after two days of investigation, no problems were found, so Hattori Saburo gave up the idea and planned to start from other aspects.
Now the Army people are still investigating the identities of the passengers on the ship. Saburo Hattori is naturally very disdainful, and he is not optimistic about what the Army people can find out.
As soon as Saburo Hattori finished speaking, Murakami Rokuzhu also smiled sarcastically, thinking to himself that he hoped that the Army guys couldn't find anything, otherwise they would be in trouble...
At this time, every room in the Shanghai terminal was filled with hundreds of passengers from the Nailu, including dozens of white people.
But this time, the Japanese troops who guarded these people had much better discipline. Not only did they not bully them, they also provided these people with three meals, but only restricted their freedom.
This situation is quite normal, because the people being controlled are all Japanese or people from their allies, so the Japanese military cannot act randomly.
However, although the treatment of these people is not bad, they have to be summoned by the Japanese military from time to time, especially the dozens of white people, who have to be summoned by the Japanese military every day.
Even now, most white people are in the process of being questioned.
In the middle position on the pier, in the best room, there was an old man in his sixties, facing the sea, closing his eyes and meditating, as if he was thinking about something.
Ten minutes later, a lieutenant general came to report to the old man: "Your Excellency, lieutenant general, another telegram has been sent from China, urging us to find information as soon as possible."
"knew!"
The old man responded calmly and had no other reaction.
The old man was Army Lieutenant General Naoo Abe who had just arrived in Shanghai. Originally, given his status, he would not have been sent to Shanghai because his rank was too high.
But the intelligence of nuclear fission data was too important, and the Japanese Army also needed to send a significant person to Shanghai to clean up the mess, so Naoo Abe was sent here.
After Naoo Abe arrived in Shanghai, he immediately took control of the matter and pushed aside the navy personnel.
Since his military rank was lower than that of Naoo Abe, and due to orders from the Japanese military headquarters, Saburo Hattori had no choice but to make some concessions.
This is also because whether it is the army or the navy, as long as they find Soviet agents, they can get great benefits, but the size is different. That's why Saburo Hattori did not put the army in trouble.
"Your Excellency, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also sent a telegram saying that several of our allies have lodged protests."
This time the Japanese military's behavior of controlling white people in other countries dissatisfied their allies. Even if these allies knew that the Japanese were looking for Soviet agents, they would protest and put pressure on the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Ignore it and let the foreign affairs department save themselves from the verbal quarrels!"
Naoo Abe still looked indifferent. After all, Japan now has a military cabinet, and the military has all the say.
Therefore, the current Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not taken seriously by Naoo Abe.
As for the protests from allied countries, Naoo Abe doesn't care, because Germany, Japan's main ally, supports this matter.
What's more, the Japanese are arrogant and will not take the protests of other countries to heart.
"Hi!"
After hearing what Abe Naoo said, Army Lieutenant Colonel did not worry about anything, because in his eyes, this matter was a trivial matter.
At this time, someone else came in to report the information: "Your Excellency, General, a sailor of the Nailu told me a situation that I felt was a little unusual."
"What's abnormal?"
Naoo Abe immediately asked. Although his tone was calm, the expression on his face was a little hopeful.
"This sailor remembers how many swimming rings were lost on the Nailu the night before the warship was about to arrive in Shanghai?"
The visitor immediately told the situation without any intention of concealing it.
"How many swimming rings were lost? When exactly was it?"
Naoo Abe's attitude became serious, as if he had thought of something.
"The time when the swimming ring was found missing was twelve o'clock in the evening. As for the specific time, the sailor doesn't know?"
"It's twelve o'clock in the evening, and the navy hasn't arrived yet!"
Naoo Abe muttered to himself, and then showed a look of deep contemplation.
After a short time, Naoo Abe picked up the phone and made a call: "Start investigating immediately to see which ships left Shanghai four days ago..."
