No trace of espionage

Chapter 154

When Lin Chuang returned to the office, it was already half an hour later.

As soon as I sat down, the phone rang.

"Excuse me, is this Team Leader Lin?" A familiar voice came from the phone.

Lin Chuang didn't hear it all at once, but felt a little familiar.

"I am, are you?" Lin Chuang asked.

"Oh, I found you. I called several times just now and couldn't find you. I am the owner of 'Xu Ji Grocery Store', and my surname is Xu."

When Lin Chuang heard that it was Xu Tao, he immediately became nervous: "Boss Xu, what's the matter?"

"Tell me something, sir. Just now after you bought cigarettes and left, someone came to inquire about you, saying that his younger brother was arrested for taking drugs, and he wanted to ask you for favors." Xu Tao said.

Lin Chuang understood as soon as he heard it: "What does that person look like?"

"A black top hat, a dark gray suit, and a black briefcase in his hand. He said he was waiting just north of my door, and as long as you come out, let me show him, and he also said to give me ten yuan. That person also has a companion, just a dozen meters north of my shop, who was there just now, but now I don’t know where he went.”

"Okay, I see. Thank you, Boss Xu." Lin Chuang put down the phone, rushed to the window in two or three steps, opened the curtains a crack, and looked north of Xu Ji grocery store.

I didn't see the person Xu Tao said.

"Needless to say, this must have been sent by the Japanese to inquire about me. They were still there just now, which means that the two of them didn't go far, so there should be time." Lin Chuang thought nervously.

Thinking of this, Lin Chuang picked up the phone and called Duan Yide: "Deputy Director Duan, the Japanese have touched our door, and I need to block Baotai Street immediately."

"What? The Japanese touched it? What's the situation?" Duan Yide asked involuntarily.

"I will report the specific situation to you later. Baotai Street must be blocked immediately, otherwise it will be too late." Lin Chuang said.

"Okay, I'll give you an order right away, and you bring people from the investigation department to search from house to house!" Duan Yide said.

"Yes." Lin Chuang replied.

Putting down the phone, Lin Chuang called Chen Lu and Zhao Junjiang again, and ordered the intelligence team and action team to gather in the yard.

With an order, a total of 38 people from the intelligence team and the action team quickly formed a team in the yard.

"Brothers, I just got the news that two Japanese spies were at the gate of the bureau just now. The purpose is unknown. One of the spies was wearing a black top hat, a dark gray suit, and holding a black briefcase in his hand. It is estimated that they are still in Baotai. The street is not far away. Now we have to find them, the intelligence team checks the south side of the road, and the action team checks the north side of the road, take action!" Lin Chuang stood in front of the team, briefly introduced the situation, then waved his hand and issued ordered.

"Yes!"

Chen Lu and Zhao Junjiang agreed, and rushed out of the police station with the team.

Duan Yide's actions were also very fast. By the time Lin Chuang rushed out of the police station with his men, both ends of Baotai Street had already been blocked by the police.

Chen Lu and Zhao Junjiang led people to search from house to house for an hour and a half, but found nothing except a black top hat and a dark gray suit jacket in the trash can.

Lin Chuang understood that the Japanese had escaped.

Had to order to close the team.

When Lin Chuang returned to the office, he was really angry: "I blame you, Li Wei, if you didn't make trouble for no reason, would you let the Japanese run away?"

When he was angry, the phone rang, and Lin Chuang picked it up, and it was Duan Yide.

"Lin Chuang, what's going on?"

"That's what happened. I came out of Section Chief Li's office and went back to my own office. I wanted to open the curtains to get some air, but I accidentally found someone with a camera secretly taking pictures of the people who came in and out of our police station. I judged it was The Japanese spies were trying to figure out our bottom line. Unfortunately, they were a step too late, and only found a top hat and a suit in the trash can," Lin Chuang replied.

He had to protect his source, so he made up a nonsense.

"Are the top hat and suit the man you saw wearing?"

"Yes."

"That proves that your judgment is correct. Lin Chuang, be careful next time, I guess the Japanese are targeting you."

"Thank you sir, I will." After Lin Chuang finished speaking, he put down the phone.

Regret is useless, if you can't catch the turtledove, you can't relieve yourself from danger.

Lin Chuang sat down, lit a cigarette, and thought about it carefully.

"From what Xu Tao said, two things can be confirmed: one is that there are more than two spies to deal with me this time; the other is that they only know my name, not my face, and they don't have my photo. Otherwise, they wouldn’t ask Xu Tao about me. What’s not sure is whether there is a camera in the spy’s briefcase, and if so, they must have taken a picture of me now.”

Lin Chuang would not be afraid if he was really photographed. After all, the current image is not his real image. The enemy gets a fake photo, but it is beneficial to him.

"Then now, it's time for me to return to my true colors."

Thinking of this, Lin Chuang walked to the sink and began to wash his face, thinking while washing.

"No, there must be something wrong with what Xu Tao said. But, what's wrong?" Lin Chuang felt a thought flash in his mind, but it disappeared and he never grasped it again.

"Sir, you haven't eaten yet. I bought you steamed buns. Eat some."

After washing his face, Lin Chuangzheng was at a loss what to do. Ji Laoliu knocked on the door and came in with a big paper bag in his hand.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and Lin Chuang didn't feel hungry because he was all focused on the case just now. At this time, Ji Lao Liu opened the paper bag, and a hot aroma floated into his nose, which immediately hooked the hunger .

"You are still smart, Huzi. The three idiots Chen Lu, Gao Yang, and Jun Jiang couldn't think of this." Lin Chuang picked up a bun and said with a smile.

"Sir, this is what a subordinate should do. Sir, I brought a head of garlic, do you want to eat it?" Ji Laoliu replied with a smile.

Hearing no reply, Ji Laoliu felt a little strange, raised his head to look at Lin Chuang, only to find that he was holding a bun, and was taken aback.

It turned out that as soon as the words "smart" and "stupid" came out, Lin Chuang immediately grasped the flash of thought just now.

"Yeah, are the Japanese stupid? Obviously not. They saw me coming out of the grocery store, and they must know that the time I stayed in it was not short, far longer than buying a pack of cigarettes, so why did they Do you want to find Xu Tao to inquire about my situation? And the inquiry is so straightforward and the reason is so far-fetched. They are not afraid that Xu Tao will tip me off? Also, they are just a dozen meters north of Xu Tao's shop. I showed it to Xu Tao. Since the distance is so close, they would have no time to escape as soon as I responded, so why didn’t they find them?”

"They're not idiots, and idiots can't be agents, so they won't be so full of loopholes. So, what are they trying to do?"
