Chapter 1022 Neighbors
No. 76 Jisifeier Road, the headquarters of the pseudo-national secret service.

Director Ding Mocun was sitting in the office dealing with official documents, and without hesitation in his pen, he hooked up a group of criminals who were suspected of resisting the Japanese, including many of his old colleagues of the Central Committee.

Although most of Xu Enzeng's men are trash and weak bones, it is undeniable that there are also a group of tough guys. These people would rather die than surrender to the Japanese and No. 76.

Dingmo Village has never been soft on such useless people. After tonight, there will be a few more unnamed solitary graves on top of the mass graves by the Huangpu River.

Finished his official duties quickly, with a thin face, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, Ding Mocun, who looked more like a literati than an agent, closed his eyes and rested for a while, then picked up the phone and called Wan Lilang, the director of No. 76 And Wu Sibao, Captain of the Guard Brigade.

"Director Wan, Captain Wu, how is the task assigned by the chief of the Dapu agency going?"

As soon as he saw the two of them, Ding Mocun asked.

Although No. 76 belongs to Xinguofu in name, everyone knows that the Japanese are their parents, and the other party's orders must be fulfilled without compromise.

Upon receiving the request from the Special Committee on China to screen those who had recently come to Shanghai, No. 76 immediately deployed a large number of people to carry out the work, and the people in charge were Wan Lilang and Wu Sibao.

One of the two is rumored to be from a professional class, and the other is an old gangster from the Cao Gang. In this way, they can not only track down the target person from a professional perspective, but also mobilize the connections of the Cao Gang, which "complements each other".

Wan Lilang was fat, with a cropped head and wearing a new Chinese tunic suit. He looked very shrewd. When he heard Ding Mocun's question, he bent over and replied respectfully.

"Director, Captain Wu and I have gone through all the people who came to Shanghai after the Anqing incident, and we haven't found any suspicious people for the time being. Could it be that Your Excellency Dazuo's guess is wrong?

I've heard about Zuo Zhong, who has captured many Japanese spies, but he is now the deputy director of the military command. It is said that it is unlikely that an official of this level in a mountain city will be personally involved in a dangerous situation. "

"No, this person is different from ordinary Guo party officials."

Ding Mocun shook his head, pressed his hand to let the two sit down, introduced Zuo Zhong's resume in a heavy tone, and then looked at Wan Lilang again.

Outsiders say that Wan Lilang has a military background, but he knows that this is just rumors, and only laymen who don't know the inside story think so, and insiders won't believe it at all.

There is only one reason, being able to become the chief of the department at the beginning of the formation of No. 76, the other party cannot be an unknown person in the military system, at least he is also the chief of the department or section chief.

The problem is that there are only so many senior agents with names and surnames in the military command, and no one has ever heard of Wan Lilang's name. This alone is enough to prove the truth of this rumor.

Wan Lilang's real identity is an old man in the intelligence system of the Department of Political Science, and Zhang Qun, the boss of the Department of Political Science, is both from Sichuan Province, and they can be regarded as veteran spies in the intelligence system of the national government.

Since the influence of the Department of Political Science is mostly in the political circle, the other party's reputation is not obvious, and there is no such person among the traitors of the Central Command, many people mistakenly think that Wan Lilang is a member of the Military Command.

In order to create trouble for Shancheng and Dai Chunfeng, the upper management of No. 76 let the matter spread. Ding Mocun couldn't help smiling when he thought of this, and reminded Wan Lilang.

"Your Politics Department doesn't have much dealings with the Military Command, and you don't know Zuo Zhong, so it's normal for you to think so, but this person is definitely a very dangerous opponent.

He is a graduate of the Police Academy in Zhejiang Province. He has studied policing systematically. He has a flexible mind and is good at psychological warfare.

He has led a team to perform field missions many times, but the specific content is unknown, and overseas missions are likely to be included, so there is a high chance that he will come to Shanghai.

Before the start of the war, the Japanese suffered repeated setbacks in the hands of the military command. Only the super high class of Hase, the chief of the agency, barely fought with him, which shows how powerful Zuo Zhong is.

You and Captain Wu must remain vigilant, and you must not take it lightly. You saw the last arrest of military commanders. These people are all diehards. "

When Wan Lilang and Wu Sibao recalled the scene on the day of the operation, their complexions became ugly, and they both regretted taking this terrible task.

Military reunification agents are different from central reunification agents. They have strong destructive power, superb operational skills, and decisive actions. Killing people is really killing people.

It is said that even the head of the investigation section of the gendarmerie in Jinling was killed in the bombing. In a fight with such an opponent, the slightest carelessness could put one's life in danger, so no one is afraid.

Ding Mocun pretended not to see their expressions. Didn't he know that Juntong was difficult to deal with? Of course he did.

But Dali Tongzhen forced No. 76 to investigate, what can he do.

As for grabbing Zuo Zhong's promotion and making a fortune, it was not in his plan at all. As an old opponent of the military command, he was very aware of Zuo Zhong's strength and difficulty.

If the opponent was really so easy to deal with, he would have died in the hands of the Japanese long ago, so how could he have survived alive and kicked until now, and even became the deputy director of the military command.

How can I explain it if I haven't found anyone?
Rubbing his stupefied head, Ding Mocun thought hard for a while, and suddenly he had an idea, and decided to turn the tide of trouble and hand over the job to Li Shiqun.

In case Zuo Zhong was not found in the end, and Dali Tongzhen blamed him, the responsibility was the other party's and had nothing to do with him.

Li Shiqun had to agree to this matter even if he didn't agree. Who made himself the director, and the person surnamed Li was only the deputy director.

The corner of Ding Mocun's mouth was smiling, and he was about to call Li Shiqun here. The first-level official was crushing him, and finally he was able to hand over this hot potato.

"Didi Didi~~"

Just as he picked up the phone, several shrill whistles came from outside the window.

The grumpy Wu Sibao frowned, cursedly pushed open the window and leaned out to scold someone, then retracted gracefully the next second.

Who dares to blow the whistle in front of Gate 76 and scare the fearless Wu Sibao like this?
Curiously, Ding Mocun put down the microphone and came to the window to look outside, and found several high-end cars with plaster┴flags in front of them driving into the opposite No. 75, Jisfeier Road.

Seeing this scene, he was stunned. Since he moved to Jisfeier Road, he really hadn't seen his neighbors. He only knew that there was a Japanese living there.

"Director Wan, do you know the details of our neighbor? And that yard, what did the original owner do."

Looking at the gradually disappearing taillights, Ding Mocun asked, it's not that he found something suspicious, it's just out of habit.

Those who do intelligence have the urge to find out what they see and hear. Without this curiosity, it is not good to be a spy.

Wan Lilang didn't hesitate, and directly dictated the other party's information. Obviously, he had already done enough research.

"The previous landlord of No. 75 was a British citizen who lived in Europe all year round. There was only one janitor, and his identity was not suspicious, and he had no background of the fruit party or underground party.

Two years before the start of the war, Nagashima, a native of Osaka, bought No. 75. This person sold scarce supplies between the Republic of China and Japan, and had a close relationship with the Japanese Navy.

According to our preliminary investigation, Changdao Pingshi seldom talked about politics and the military, and he was relatively low-key. From all aspects, he was an ordinary Japanese businessman. "

Ding Mocun nodded. It turned out that he moved in two years ago, so there is no problem.

The other party can't predict the future. Not only can they guess that the new government will be established, but they can also calculate that the No. 76 will be stationed here. This is too absurd.

If so, they surrendered.

Suspicious, Ding Mocun raised his hand and closed the window, ignoring the movement outside, and concentrated on preparing to blame Li Shiqun.

In addition, although he didn't have any hope of catching Zuo Zhong, deep down in Ding Mocun's heart, he still had some extravagant hopes.

In case the target is careless or by accident, they are arrested like Zheng Shisong, then the 76th will be issued, the deputy director of the military command, this is a great contribution.

The people from No. 76 took Chen Mingchu and Zheng Shisong out several times these days, trying to use these two people as bait to catch Zuo Zhong, a big fish.

At this moment, he has long forgotten that he promised to protect Chen Mingchu's safety. For a spy, honesty is a luxury, and even a good person cannot be an intelligence officer.

At the same time, the entrance of the bungalow in courtyard 75.

Businessman Chang Dao greeted the Japanese military and government officials stationed in Shanghai. Two men dressed as servants took the opportunity to walk into the courtyard from the street, and entered the foreign-style building as if nothing had happened.

The two walked around the building familiarly, and finally stopped in front of an elevator to look around, then lowered their heads and walked in, and closed the wooden door and iron gate.

Standing in the elevator, one of them took out a key and put it into the keyhole next to the button and turned it gently. After the buzzing sound, the elevator shook slightly and began to run slowly.

"Second seat, this is a special elevator. It can only move upwards when the floor is flat. It is no different from ordinary elevators. Once you use the key, you can go directly to "Listen to Truth"."

The person who took out the key was Gui Youguang. He pointed to the elevator under his feet, and introduced it to Zuo Zhong in a low voice, with a very embarrassing expression on his face.

A few years ago, he received an order from Zuo Zhong to dig a secret passage at No. 75 to monitor No. 76. How to ensure the safety of the entrance and exit became a problem.

In the end, he was inspired by the elevator in the East Asia Club┴. The same thing is that they cannot use buttons to reach the designated floor, and they need a key as a switch.

The difference is that one is up and the other is down.

Zuo Zhong on the side nodded slightly listening to the other party's introduction. This arrangement is really good. The best way to hide an item is not to dig a hole and bury it, but to use other items as a cover.

The big bald head is eating his brains, it's not easy, he must be praised, he patted Gui Youguang on the shoulder and said a few words, Gui Youguang immediately bared his teeth, as happy as a dog's tail flower.

While speaking, the elevator shook and stopped descending, and the temperature inside the elevator also slightly increased.

Gui Youguang immediately opened the iron gate, Zuo Zhong walked out slowly, a low room appeared in front of the two of them, and there was a deep corridor on one side of the room.

At this moment in the room, several spies were hiding and crouching behind a low cement wall with their guns on guard, but when they saw the two of them, they immediately put down their guns and saluted excitedly.

"Second seat!"

These people are members of the monitoring team code-named "True Listening", whose task is to monitor the pseudo-secret headquarters, record, analyze, and transmit important information.

They need to work for a long time in the dark, more than ten meters underground. In order to reduce the flow of people, they should try their best to ensure concealment and rotate every six months.

It can be said that this is an extremely dangerous and very hard job.

People often describe the danger of intelligence work as being under the nose of the enemy, but they are under the feet of the real enemy, and they will be exposed if they are not careful.

Zuo Zhong walked quickly to the spies, patted one and the other to show kindness, and then visited the underground space of "Listening Truth" under the leadership of the team leader.
