Chapter 133 Scars
Jin Andong was puzzled when he heard the words, but he answered honestly: "Mr. Zuo, you should know the special nature of intelligence work. Once Renjiu goes to carry out the mission, he will cut off contact with us until the mission is completed."

Zuo Zhong nodded: "I know, what I'm talking about is whether there are long-term missions. For example, I came back in a month, but it took a longer time for a certain time. You must tell the truth."

Jin Andong was startled, what did Zuo Zhong mean? Could it be that he suspected that Ren Jiu was instigated by the Japanese? This is absolutely impossible, and the Northeast intelligence network is still safe until now.

He said firmly: "Certainly not, Renjiu will never betray the Goryeo nation."

Zuo Zhong didn't say much, and handed him a photo: "You didn't check the body when you identified the body, did you? This is the autopsy photo of Jin Renjiu. There are many old wounds on his body, and there are traces of whips on his back. , The chest was hit by a blunt instrument, and a piece of flesh was missing from the thigh.

These are standard traces of torture. Except for the Japanese, I can’t think of anyone who would do this. You can’t accept some things, but I only believe in the evidence. Combined with all the information, Kim In-kyo must have surrendered because he couldn’t bear the torture after being captured. "

Jin Andong took the photo with trembling hands, looking at the scars on his son's body, how could this happen, no wonder Renjiu never let people enter his room, no wonder Xia Tian was also well-dressed, but when did all this happen.

Having been able to fight back and forth with the Japanese for so long, Jin Andong is not a fool. Seeing the tragic image in the photo, he naturally had some doubts. He began to recall the missions that Jin Renjiu had performed, and soon thought of something suspicious. .

Jin Andong opened his mouth and said: "At the beginning of this year, I sent him to Jinmen to contact a Korean businessman. This person has a close relationship with the high-level Kwantung Army. We decided to instigate this person. This is the longest mission he has performed. It lasted for three months. There was no contact during that time."

Zuo Zhong didn't expect their hands to be quite long. He asked curiously, "How are you going to instigate that businessman? Since he has a good relationship with the Kwantung Army, he must have no national consciousness. Am I right?"

Jin Andong nodded: "Yes, but we have a secret enough to kill him. He and some people from the Japanese Kwantung Army smuggled ginseng and other valuable medicinal materials to you, so..."

Zuo Zhong couldn't believe it: "So you use this to threaten? Have you ever thought about where you go to report him? Where the Japanese are, or the national government, you are not afraid that he doesn't care at all?"

The Koreans are too naive. Since the country existed, smuggling has been banned repeatedly. Why, because the profits are too large, such a large profit naturally forms a solid network of relationships, and will not be easily caught destroy.

Jin Andong said in surprise: "As long as this matter is exposed, the Kwantung Army will definitely kill him, or at least cancel the cooperation with him. For such a money-hungry guy, this is more uncomfortable than killing him. He can only choose to cooperate."

Zuo Zhong sent out a soul question: "Didn't you consider that he doesn't care at all?"

Jin Andong was a little unconvinced: "This is a joint decision after the organization's discussion, and it also refers to various intelligences. It is by no means random. At that time, Renjiu successfully completed the mission. I still don't believe that he will defect. Those intelligence personnel are still there. .”

Zuo Chong sighed: "The Japanese are short of money, and we are short of high-end medicinal materials. Do you know how many high-ranking officials and dignitaries are involved in this business? There must be a reason for that businessman to act as a middleman. He is not afraid of your threats.

As for your claim that Jin Renjiu successfully completed the mission, it is because the Japanese just want to take a long time to catch big fish. Since the mission, you have received a lot of information, but it is of little value. "

Finally, Jin Andong was no longer so confident, because Zuo Zhong's inference was correct. The lines that Jin Renjiu was in charge of were very active recently, and they sent a lot of messy information to the Koryo Restoration Organization, but the value was very low.

He hadn't reacted before, but now after Zuo Zhong reminded him, he realized the problem. His most important son, Jin Renjiu, probably betrayed him and the Koryo Restoration Organization. This may make Jin Andong's heart ache.

Zuo Zhong looked at him and said indifferently: "Don't be so sad, your son should have persisted for a long time, otherwise there wouldn't be so many scars on his body, and he should have exchanged his own surrender for your life. You have a filial piety." son."

Jin Andong raised his head, tears streaming down his face: "Mr. Zuo, what do you mean?"

Zuo Zhong became a little impatient: "You don't think the Japanese can't really find you, do you? This is Jiaxing, which is less than a hundred kilometers away from Shanghai. It's neither the United States nor the United Kingdom. With the help of the Japanese's intelligence power, they can target you." The location is easy."

Jin Andong cried harder, Zuo Zhong stood up and walked around the room, thinking about a question, if Jin Renjiu rebelled, would the woman he went to meet be a Japanese spy, or would the Japanese kill Jin Renjiu? ?
If he was a Japanese, he managed to get into the top ranks of the Koryo Restoration Organization. What he had to do was not to kill but to protect. Intelligence channels are a precious resource that cannot be copied. Kim In-kyo was definitely not killed by the Japanese. .

Is it possible that the person who met Jin Renjiu was indeed a Japanese spy, and the two exchanged information smoothly. After they separated, someone else killed Jin Renjiu, but what was the murderer's purpose?
Glancing at Jin Andong, who was convulsed by crying, Zuo Zhong wondered if this had something to do with the Koryo Restoration Organization. If a Korean found out about Kim In-jiu's anomaly, it would be best to secretly kill him for the purpose of protecting the organization and Kim Andong's reputation. Good choice, the son of a Zionist leader has become a traitor, it's too demoralizing.

Thinking of this, Zuo Zhong patted Jin Andong on the shoulder: "Mr. Jin, now is not the time to cry. Who knows who your son has the best relationship with in the Fuguo organization when Jin Renjiu went to Jinmen?"

Jin Andong was a little bit broken now, Zuo Zhong said whatever he asked: "This is the top secret, the top management of the organization knows about the businessman, but they don't know who the specific task is.

Renjiu is not familiar with the people in the organization, because he is not proficient in Korean, and many people in the organization think that he is already a Chinese. "

Zuo Chong understands that Jin Renjiu has no prestige in the recovery organization, and is just a tool man. There is little hope for internal investigation, and he still needs to find a woman who is suspected of being a spy.

He also didn't know how the investigation of the restaurant and bookstore was going. His previous inference was correct, because intelligence connections needed more secrecy and safety, and Zuo Zhong couldn't think of any other suitable places in Jiaxing City.

If the woman can be caught by beating a rabbit, half of the case will be solved, and there is no need to pay attention to the other half. Japanese spies killed Jin Renjiu inhumanely, what a perfect and reasonable reason.

Zuo Zhong is not the real father of the Koreans, and he has nothing to do with finding the real murderer. It is enough to help them find the danger hidden around them, and everyone can accept this result.

Zuo Zhong handed the roster to Jin Andong: "Mr. Jin, please keep your conversation secret today, and we will not target your intelligence personnel. Now please mark the intelligence channels that Jin Renjiu has contacted. These people can give up. "

It's cruel to have an old man suffering like this do this, but a good guy doesn't make a good spy, he can be a moral role model if need be, or he can be a hard-hearted bad guy.

After a while, Zuo Zhong took the roster and left. Jin Andong, who was still a little arrogant before, bowed and said goodbye when Zuo Zhong left. Song Minghao didn't dare to ask what happened between the two.

When Zuo Zhong left from Jin's house, he saw Mrs. Jin and Fu Ling basking in the sun in the yard. Mrs. Jin was sitting on a stone bench humming an unknown song, which seemed to be a nursery rhyme of Goryeo.

"A poor man." Zuo Zhong said to himself.

Fu Ling walked up to him and said quietly: "Chief, I think Mrs. Jin's mental state is not very good. She cried all night holding a baby's clothes last night. I persuaded her several times to no avail."

Zuo Zhong sighed: "The pain of losing a child is not so easy to get over. You have to prevent her from committing suicide, otherwise it will be troublesome after one wave of unrest and another wave. If you really can't stand it, let the East China District send a few female spies."

Fu Ling looked back at Mrs. Jin: "Okay, there are a few female spies from the special training class in East China. I will apply to the person in charge here. Do you have any clues, section chief?"

Zuo Zhong shook his head: "There are no clues yet, I've worked hard for you these days, I'll go first."

After finishing speaking, Zuo Zhong walked out of the gate, He Yijun was standing by the car waiting for him, the two got into the car one after another, Zuo Zhong said to the driver: "Go to the police station."

The car was driving fast on the road, and Zuo Zhong began to think. The key to catching the woman who was suspected of being a Japanese spy was the two words Jin Renjiu said when he answered the phone: So it was you, so we will meet at the old place.

Zuo Zhong always felt that there was something wrong, he frowned and thought hard, he didn't even know that the car arrived at the police station, so the driver had to take a cautious look at He Yijun.

He Yijun knew that he was thinking, so he signaled the driver to get out of the car first, and she sat in the car with Zuo Zhong for more than an hour, until Zuo Chong's feet were numb from the cold before he realized it.

"Yijun, why didn't you call me?"

He Yijun smiled and said, "It's okay, Brother Zuo, did you think of something?"

Zuo Zhong helped her open the car door: "I thought of some strange places, but I just can't think of anything strange, so I can't rush this matter."

The two walked into the director's office while talking, and found that Ling Sanping and Tongsuo were drinking tea here, the stove was burning brightly, and there were a few sweet potatoes on it, which is really unreasonable.

Zuo Chong knocked on Tongsuo's head: "Isn't it for you to see and see? Why did you come here to eat roasted sweet potatoes? Have you found someone to read your book to you? This is very important."

Tongsuo twisted his neck: "Isn't it just a corpse soaked in water? It's not like I haven't seen it before. What you gave me is a Buddhist scripture. What's so good about it? It makes me dizzy."

"Listen as long as you are told, no nonsense."

After Zuo Zhong finished speaking, he looked at Ling Sanping with a calm face: "What he said is true? Did he really vomit?"

Ling Sanping was expressionless: "I have indeed seen it, I didn't vomit, it is said that I saw a lot when I was fleeing famine."

It turned out to be like this, Zuo Zhong sat down by the stove to warm up the fire, and even snatched two of the largest sweet potatoes, he and He Yijun ate one by one, and there was warmth in his body, Zuo Zhong began to think about what he couldn't understand before. things.

Tongsuo saw that two of the sweet potatoes he had worked so hard to get were taken away, and they were the two biggest ones, so he muttered, "If you want to eat it, go find it yourself. It's nothing to take mine. Where are you two going?" How come back is like a starved ghost reincarnated."

Where have you been?
come back!

Zuo Zhong was struck by lightning, he finally knew that there was something wrong with Jin Renjiu's two words, such a simple truth should have been thought of long ago.
