Logistics Office of Shanghai Relief Administration.
Director's office.
Zhou Weilong stood in awe with his hands lowered and said respectfully: "Virgin, currently we have set up six intelligence points and four groups of operatives in the public concession. We have set up four intelligence points in the French Concession and two groups of operatives in Hongkou.
Two intelligence points, a group of operatives..."
"Hongkou is the top priority, but why is it the least staffed?" Boss Dai sat behind a large desk, flipping through written materials on these situations in his hands.
"Regarding this matter, I am about to report to you. Hongkou is very close to the concession. If we set up the intelligence point in the concession, it will not only have the same effect, but will also be safer. Therefore, I plan to withdraw the personnel from Hongkou and arrange them all to
Concession, do you think this is feasible?"
"Well..." Boss Dai pondered for a long time and said, "Let's do this. The operational personnel can be withdrawn and the intelligence point will remain. After all, the Japanese Consulate and the Marine Corps Headquarters are both in Hongkou. We must keep a close eye on them!"
"yes!"
"Dao San, you told me last time that you were inspecting a group of new people. How is the situation?"
"Reporting to the director, except for Xu Siqi, everyone else has passed the inspection. After a while, I will arrange for them to receive special training at Honggong Temple in Nanjing."
Boss Dai said: "I have read Xu Siqi's file, and I feel that with his comprehensive qualities, he is very suitable for spy work... Why didn't he pass the inspection?"
As a veteran agent from the Lixingshe period, Zhou Weilong is extremely sensitive to anything that is not in line with common sense. He always believes in the truth that when something goes wrong, there must be a monster!
For example, in the case of Xu Siqi, a newcomer who failed the inspection was actually allowed to be questioned by Boss Dai personally. It was rare that this happened.
As for where the "demon" is, although he doesn't know yet, he doesn't dare to take it lightly.
What is a dangerous official career? Every word and every action may be a trap, a situation that makes people confused.
Zhou Weilong said cautiously: "Actually, I am very optimistic about Xu Siqi's ability. He not only has military school experience, but is also proficient in English and Japanese. In an international metropolis like Shanghai, such talents are especially needed. But there is one thing that makes me
Suspicion arose on him..."
When Xu Siqi was patrolling the police station on Foch Road, Zhou Weilong told the story about the use of steganography potion by Xu Siqi in detail, and then said: "Virgin, Xu Siqi is a military cadet. He is not an agent. Normally, it is impossible for him to have access to spy knowledge.
."
Boss Dai smiled slightly: "Dao San, do you think Japan's military academies are the same as ours?"
Zhou Weilong was stunned when he heard this: "Could it be said that Japanese military academies still teach students to use secret writing potions?"
"Look at this first." Boss Dai opened the drawer, took out a letter and put it on the table.
The seal of the envelope has been opened, and it looks like it has been specially treated. If it is resealed with glue, no trace will be visible.
This is a very ordinary letter. The sending address is a tofu shop in Tokyo. The receiving address is Takeuchi Bookstore on Sichuan North Road, Shanghai. The recipient's name is Takeuchi Ryota.
Zhou Weilong unfolded the letter and briefly browsed the contents of the letter.
Japanese culture originated from China. Except for the different pronunciation, the literal meanings of Japanese and Chinese are basically the same.
"My parents are short-sighted and not worth mentioning." Boss Dai said calmly.
"Virgo, this letter..."
"This is a secret letter. If you bake it with an alcohol lamp, different contents will appear."
"So, Ryota Takeuchi is a spy?"
"No, he is not a spy. He is a member of the Japanese Anti-War League, and in a sense, he is our friend."
"Then how did this letter fall into our hands?"
"Recently, Japanese espionage activities have been rampant. In response to this situation, we have strengthened the postal and telecommunications censorship system and conducted random checks on letters from Japanese civilians. We happened to pick up a letter from Ryota Takeuchi, and we discovered this secret by accident."
"Oh, I see……"
"In this sealed letter, a name was mentioned, which happened to be somewhat related to Xu Siqi."
"who?"
"It's Asano Hidejo who had a fight with Xu Siqi."
"Then, what does the secret letter say?"
"Just one sentence, Hidejo Asano will go to Shanghai in the near future. This person is dangerous, so please be careful."
Zhou Weilong frowned: "Taken from the literal meaning, this Asano Hidejo seems to have brought danger to the anti-war alliance, or perhaps Ryota Takeuchi himself has a personal grudge against Asano Hidejo..."
Boss Dai said: "From what we know, all military students, including the Etajima Naval Academy, must undergo strict confidentiality training, which means that Xu Siqi has the opportunity to come into contact with knowledge such as secret writing potions.
."
Only then did Zhou Weilong suddenly realize that the anti-war alliance and Asano Hidejo were all beside the point. Boss Dai was mainly trying to clear Xu Siqi from suspicion.
"Virgin, I understand my position. Don't worry, I will handle the matter of recruiting Xu Siqi to join the Secret Service as soon as possible."
Boss Dai sighed: "Well, I just don't want to see the loss of talent. The party and the country are currently facing internal and external troubles, and we urgently need more people of insight to join us. Only by continuously strengthening our own strength will we become stronger and stronger.
!”
Zhou Weilong put his feet together and said respectfully: "In this humble position, I will only obey the teachings of the leader!"
Boss Dai looked at him and said: "Dao San, I will hand over the Shanghai station to you. I hope you can build a model station and set an example for provincial stations across the country!"
Zhou Weilong said solemnly: "Please rest assured, Virgo, I will do my best in this humble position!"
Boss Dai nodded, glanced at the letter on the table, and said: "Oh, by the way, you can take care of Takeuchi Bookstore at the appropriate time. However, don't do it deliberately. If it causes a diplomatic incident, then
But it’s very troublesome, you know what I mean?”
"clear."
"Okay, if there's nothing else, you can go down first."
"Virgo, there is one more thing I would like to ask you for advice."
"explain."
"Some time ago, Citibank called Liang Hongzhi and said that there was a problem with one of Liang Hongzhi's deposits and that he needed to be there in person to confirm..."
Boss Dai's eyes flashed: "Are you going to arrange an assassination plan for him?"
Zhou Weilong said with a smile: "You said that Liang Hongzhi is already in his twilight years and may go to see the King of Hell someday. There is no need to take risks for such a person."
Boss Dai nodded: "Yes, there is no need to worry about a dying old man."
Zhou Weilong took a step closer and whispered: "Virgin, assassinating Liang Hongzhi is just an introduction. Of course it would be best if it succeeds. Even if we fail, it will not cause any loss to us. My ultimate goal is to find out the whereabouts of the leader of the Communist Party, Fang Yongyan."
