Chapter 168 Sea Bird Sea Bird
Zuo Zhong glanced at Shen Dongxin, who was pointing at his watch, and knew that it was getting late, so he cupped his hands and said goodbye: "Dai still has something to deal with, so I will leave today, and I will visit again in the future, so I will leave."

After finishing speaking, he left in a cool manner, quite a bit of a hero, but when he got out of the mountain gate, Zuo Chong slapped his thigh: "Oops, I forgot to ask the old monk for a receipt, how can I get reimbursed for it, alas."

Shen Dongxin, who was almost frozen to death outside the courtyard, was silent for a long time, held back the anger in his heart, and asked, "How does this master make you feel? How do we go to Putuo Temple next?"

Zuo Chong shook his head, hesitantly said: "Compassionate, free and easy, many hobbies, simple, good name, I can't see this person clearly, let's leave it alone, drive around and then go to Putuo Temple."

This is his summary of this book. In short, he is a somewhat contradictory person, but except for the question about Nanyang, Zuo Zhong did not find any suspicious points, so the degree of suspiciousness is temporarily ranked third.

The two drove around Putuo Mountain, changed their clothes, and appeared at the gate of Putuo Temple. As usual, they showed their intentions, but what the monk Zhike said shocked them.

"What, Master Zhanjing went to Japan? When did he leave?"

"Yes, the host was invited by Sensoji Temple in Tokyo to give a lecture, and he just left today."

Both Zuo Zhong and Shen Dongxin looked a little ugly. Could it be that the spy was Zhan Jing, who heard something or felt that something was wrong, so he decisively withdrew?
The bald head attached great importance to this matter. If he knew that the spy had escaped under the eyes of the Secret Service, he would definitely be furious, and Dai Chunfeng and Zuo Zhong would not feel well either.

"Section Chief, there should be news from Deputy Section Chief Gu." Shen Dongxin thought, the intelligence department has manpower around these suspicious personnel, maybe Zhan Jing has been successfully intercepted.

Zuo Zhong was not so optimistic. Mount Putuo was just that big. If Zhan Jing was really intercepted, Gu Qi would not have sent someone to look for them for such a big matter. Something must have happened.

He quickened his pace and walked towards the car, and said: "Go back and see what's going on first, Gu is more than safe, but not decisive. I hope he can make a decisive decision."

At the same time, Zuo Zhong also had another worry. The sticking and tracking went smoothly before, and the other party left as soon as he came. Could it be that someone leaked the news? That would be a big problem.

The car soon arrived at the temporary residence. There was already a panic here. The spies were standing in the yard. Gu Qi seemed to be ready to give a lecture. Seeing Zuo Zhong coming back was like seeing a savior, so he hurried to the car.

"Section Chief, it's not good, Zhan Jing took a car to the pier this morning, our car broke down suddenly while following, and when the support people caught up, the other party had already taken a ship to Shanghai.

After hearing the news, I plan to send people to Ningbo to find Ms. He, and ask her to contact District Chief Yu. People from the East China District will intercept her in Shanghai, and our people will take the nearest ship to chase after her. "

Gu Qi said his arrangement in one breath, Zuo Zhong's face looked a little better, Gu Qi's remedial measures were considered appropriate, and it was good to intercept them in Shanghai, so it would be easier to keep secret; as for the car breaking down, there is no way, of course, it must be confirmed It's a mechanical failure, not someone sabotaging it.

He looked at the spies who were queuing up, and pulled Gu Qi aside: "The people here can't move. Let the brothers at home in Jinling go to Shanghai. They are closer. I want to ask you something."

Gu Qi hadn't reacted from the blow of Zhanjing's decoupling, and when he heard that Zuo Zhong had something to ask him, he quickly said, "Is it the person responsible for this matter? It's all my fault, and it has nothing to do with anyone else."

Zuo Zhong shook his head solemnly, and said in a low voice: "I left Zhanjing just after I came here, and the vehicle I was following at the same time just happened to break down on the road, these two things are too coincidental, we need to investigate.

It’s not that I don’t believe everyone, but that you and I are in this position, and doubt is our bounden duty. Think about it, are there any people who act alone these days, or suspicious things. "

When Gu Qi heard these two incidents, he also felt that it was too coincidental, but he recalled the whole process of the action, and finally he was very sure: "No, except for Tongsuo and Shen Dongxin, the rest of the staff are in groups of two, every night The action debriefing was done separately, and I have not received relevant intelligence."

Zuo Zhong nodded slightly, and patted Gu Qi on the shoulder: "That's good, I can't blame you for this, the legs are on Zhan Jing's body, and we can't follow too closely, it's inevitable that something like this will happen.

Gu Qi smiled with difficulty. He knew that Zuo Zhong was trying to comfort him. If there were two cars following alternately at that time, they wouldn't have lost their target on a small island. This was a dereliction of duty.

He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Chief, after this operation, I will conduct a review and ask for punishment. If this matter is not dealt with, it will affect the entire intelligence department.

If you want to rule others, you must first rule yourself. If everyone finds reasons for the failure of actions, it won’t be long before we will be the same as Secret Service Headquarters. I am willing to take all the responsibilities. "

Seeing the seriousness on his face, Zuo Chong knew that he was dedicated to serving the public, but now was not the time to pursue responsibility, so he said: "Zhanjing's ship arrives in Shanghai at night, and the way to intercept it should be carefully considered. It's a pity that there is no need between China and Japan." Passports and visas, otherwise you can hold him back if you fiddle with them."

Gu Qi thought for a while, and suggested: "Secret arrest, secret interrogation, and secret execution if there is any problem. Zhan Jing is a famous eminent monk. A little carelessness will cause a huge disturbance. It cannot be caught by the outside world, especially If it is known by the press, otherwise there will be an uproar."

The advantage of Gu Qi’s suggestion is that it is direct and efficient, and the disadvantage is that there is no way out. It’s good that Zhan Jing is a real spy, but if there is an unjust, false or wrong case, it will be an eternal shame for the intelligence department and Zuo Zhong.

Zuo Zhong didn't want to be nailed to the pillar of shame, he asked himself and answered: "It's easy to secretly capture Zhan Jing, but how likely is it that he is a Japanese spy? If he is a Japanese spy, he should choose Evacuate secretly.

However, based on the analysis of existing intelligence, he did not conceal his whereabouts, and seemed to be happy for others to know that he was invited to Japan. This kind of deliberate showing off fits his character very well. "

Gu Qi thought of the contents of the surveillance record and agreed. Zhan Jing is more like an actor than a monk. This person pays great attention to his reputation and image.

Zuo Zhong went on to analyze: "The relationship between the Chinese and Japanese governments is tense, but the non-governmental economic, cultural, and religious exchanges are frequent, so it is still possible for Zhan Jing to be invited to Japan.

To be invited by the most famous temple in Japan is a kind of affirmation for him, and there is an explanation for his hasty departure. I think I can't be arrested for the time being, and continue to observe. "

Speaking of this, Zuo Zhong made up his mind: "You go in person and ask He Yijun to tell District Chief Yu to create as much trouble as possible to prevent Zhan Jing from making the trip.

The specific monitoring work was handed over to Jinling's support staff, so that they would be vigilant and pay attention to whether anyone with suspicious identities came into contact with Zhanjing. "

Gu Qi left immediately after receiving the order. It took several hours to travel from Mount Putuo to Ningbo, and it took several hours for the East China region to understand the intelligence and arrange operations.

If he can't catch up with Zhanjing before he disembarks, once the other party disappears in the metropolis of Shanghai, he won't be able to find him in a short time, unless he takes the risk of doing it on the ship bound for Japan.

Zuo Zhong called Shen Dongxin after Gu Qi left, and he had a task to give to him.

"Dongxin, do you understand machinery?"

"Understand a little."

"Now check these cars to see if there are any traces of vandalism."

"Yes."

But Shen Dongxin looked at it for a long time, and judging from his little mechanical knowledge, this was a simple breakdown because the engine was overheated.

This conclusion made Zuo Chong's furrowed brows loosen quietly, as long as there is no problem with the intelligence department.

Let Shen Dongxin go to rest, he found a place to sit down by himself, the images of Shenku, Benzhi, and Zhanjing appeared back and forth in his mind.

Deep suffering, caring for the working people, very straightforward personality, dislikes the rich, doesn't value money very much, is a good guy.

This is very complicated. According to Tongsuo's information, when he was in Tiantong Temple, he spoke harshly to other masters, but when he saw him, he seemed so compassionate and needed money.

Zhanjing, arrogant and arrogant, jealous of talents and abilities, and somewhat vain, with an unknown attitude towards money, it is said that he treats money like dung.

After thinking for a long time, Zuo Zhong came up with nothing, but he was not discouraged. He was going to change his mind, try to start from the clues from Xiaoguanshan, and analyze who is most likely to know and leak the ancient tomb.

From this point of view, this is not a small suspicion. Facing Zuo Zhong's US dollar, he did not resist the temptation, no matter what the reason.

It's just that the wealth of the ancient tomb is a huge fortune, Shen Ku and Zhan Jing don't care about small money, but about big money, just when Zuo Zhong wanted to analyze it in depth, he was interrupted by a burst of yelling.

"Section Chief, Section Chief!" A special agent knocked on the door and rushed in, with a happy face: "The latest news from the dock, because today's sea is too rough, Zhan Jing's boat has returned to Putuo."

Zuo Zhong stood up suddenly: "What did you say? Where did the information come from? Is it reliable?"

The news is so good that people can't believe it. The fish that got off the hook swam back again. Zuo Zhong even thanked his car for breaking down. If Zhan Jing was not a spy but was arrested by them at the pier, then the real spy Just know.

The spy smiled and wiped his sweat: "It's the news from Deputy Section Chief Gu. He was about to take a boat back to Ningbo. He saw Zhanjing at the pier with his own eyes. He is now following up and sending someone back to deliver the letter."

"Haha." Zuo Zhong laughed happily: "God help, send someone to support immediately, keep it secret, and let Deputy Section Chief Gu come back immediately."

"Yes." The spy left with a smile on his face.

The strong wind outside the house became more and more violent, and the seabirds fell under the eaves one after another. It seemed that even these elves could not resist the fury of nature. Zuo Zhong smiled and took out a piece of bread, broke it and threw it on the ground, the seabirds They flocked.

Maybe it was attracted by the food, more and more seabirds came to take refuge and forage for food. Zuo Zhong was feeding, his smile gradually disappeared, and there was a trace of surprise on his face. He seemed to know who the Japanese spy was, really. It turned out to be that person.

The author's words have 500 characters.

　In the guest room of Shanghai East Asia Hotel, an old man in kimono frowned, as if there was something difficult to decide.

　　He thought for a long time, then raised his head and asked the young man in front of him: "Excuse me, Jin Sang, are you really a descendant of the royal family of the Qing Empire?"

　　The young man replied in proficient Japanese: "Mr. Sakamoto, you are the Taishan Hokuto of the Japanese business world, and I would never dare to deceive you.

　　And you have also seen the power of attorney granted to me by His Majesty the Emperor, which has the jade seal of the Qing Empire on it, which cannot be fooled. "

　　The old man Sakamoto nodded. This is true. The content on it has been authenticated by someone himself. It is indeed the handwriting of the last emperor, and the seal is also fine, otherwise he would not meet with the other party.

　　He bowed slightly: "I'm really sorry, the matter is really important, and I would trouble you to explain the details of the matter again in detail."

　　The young man Wen Yan explained: "Last year, the empire suddenly collapsed and key members of the family passed away, resulting in the freezing of many of our deposits in HSBC Bank.

　　Now we need a sum of money to establish a relationship, as long as we can unfreeze that deposit, we are willing to give you a large thank you fee, this is His Majesty's oral order.

　　With all due respect, if His Majesty hadn't been imprisoned in the palace by those rebels, such a good thing would not have happened to you. After all, you are Japanese, but now Your Majesty only trusts outsiders. "

　　These remarks are well-founded, and they are highly credible in light of current events, and this Jinsang is obviously a well-educated son of a big family, not the kind of street gangster, and this matter is feasible.
