Chapter 27 Progress
"The Secret Service is a new department, and there are few seniority rankings. In addition, when a major case is encountered, the position is promoted a little faster. It's just a small section chief."

Zuo Zhong didn't give too much details about his work. The work of the Secret Service is very complicated. For those who know this department, you don't need to explain it. If you don't know it, you can't take the initiative to explain it.

Although Xing Hanliang listened to Ban Jun's explanation of the spy work, but it was not very detailed. Fortunately, he was open-minded, Zuo Zhong didn't go into details, and he didn't ask. The two only talked about their friendship and didn't mention anything else.

Zuo Zhong didn't talk to Xing Hanliang for too long. Both of them still had work to do in the afternoon. He told Xing Hanliang his current phone number and address so as not to lose contact in the future.

Before leaving, Zuo Zhong said mysteriously: "You don't have to worry about your job. I guess there will be good news waiting for you at the police station. Come to me if you encounter any problems in the future."

Xing Hanliang didn't understand, thinking that Zuo Zhong was talking drunk, but when he returned to the police station and saw the bright smiles of the director and deputy director, he realized that what Zuo Zhong said was true.

The Police Department's urgent transfer order has arrived, and everyone knows that the police officer Xing who came down to experience the grassroots will have a long journey. Xing Hanliang is not a fool. He knows that this is the result of Zuo Zhong's intervention. His old classmate is really not simple. .

Being able to influence the personnel orders of the Police Department is not what Zuo Zhong said a small section chief can do, but Xing Hanliang didn't care too much, and he didn't contact Zuo Zhong immediately. He knew that what Zuo Zhong valued was the friendship between classmates. I am afraid that I will really lose this friend if I rush to brag and flatter him.

Zuo Zhong, who returned to the Secret Service here, also received a call: "Then thank you, Section Chief Yang, no, Brother Yang! Hahaha, okay, see you later."

The caller was Section Chief Yang from the Ministry of the Interior, who told him that a powerful director of the Ministry of the Interior had come forward and asked Xing Hanliang to return to the Police Department, please rest assured.

This is all the way, if this Section Chief Yang does nothing, I am afraid that he will not be able to get along in the General Affairs Department long ago.

"Yi Jun, please come over to Deputy Section Chief Gu, I have something to discuss with him." Zuo Zhong hung up the phone and said to his secretary, He Yijun.

Now that He Yijun has officially joined the Secret Service, the one with the establishment, with the rank of corporal, Zuo Zhong found that her military uniform is much more suitable than the waiter's clothes, and she has a heroic spirit.

Zuo Zhong was thinking wildly, Gu Qi came over, and upon meeting Gu Qi lit a cigarette for Zuo Zhong, and then beamed with joy, as if it was a happy event.

"Section Chief, the welfare of our intelligence department is really good. Just now, the operation department sent me a lot of things, and the price is not cheap." Gu Qi explained why he was so happy, and also meant to report honestly.

Zuo Zhongman didn't care: "It's all a rule. The criminal's family property is confiscated. Except for the part handed in, the rest will be distributed according to the official rank. We can't make everyone work hungry."

Gu Qi said with emotion: "Our secret service is better. Although the salary cannot be paid, there is a lot of oil and water. The camp investigation department doesn't even have oil and water. We can only drink northwest wind."

Zuo Zhong didn't believe Gu Qi's words. The investigation department is facing the southwest, and its power is scary. If you say that you are an underground party, you are an underground party. You are so hard to beat, how can you be short of money.

Gu Qi knew that Zuo Zhong didn't believe it, so he quickly explained: "There are many ways to make money over there, but there are also many places to spend money. Section chief, do you know how many people there are in the investigation department?"

"How much? It can't be more than the Secret Service." Zuo Zhong asked casually, smoking a cigarette.

"More than 200 people."

"Cough, more than 1000 people?"

Zuo Zhong was so frightened that he choked on a puff of cigarettes and tears came out. There are nearly 700 people in the secret service department, which is amazing enough. I didn't expect the investigation department to be even more amazing. But are these people intelligence personnel? Zuo Zhong doesn't believe it.

"There are more than 1000 people. Doesn't that mean they have a clear understanding of the Southwest? It seems that the committee's great cause of suppressing bandits is just around the corner." Zuo Zhong slowed down, and flattered him from the air.

Gu Qi said disdainfully: "Fart, among the more than 1000 people, there are more than 100 relatives of officials at all levels, and there are also local bandits and bullies. Anyway, they are all stupid pigs."

That's right, Dai Chunfeng has worked so hard to set up the Honggong Temple and the Hangzhou Special Training Class, but he has trained hundreds of basic intelligence personnel. If the Operation and Investigation Division really needs more than 1000 qualified intelligence personnel, then that is what I saw ghost.

Zuo Zhong didn't make any detours: "Old Gu, I went to the Police Department of the Ministry of the Interior this morning, and got back some files, including some information on police vehicles, which I need you to investigate."

Gu Qi is also an old spy, knowingly said: "Chief, you mean the scene where the gunmen went by car?"

"Hmph, how dare a group of heavily armed fake police wander around Jinling City in such an upright manner? When you go to investigate, remember to ask the lowest-level patrol police to interrogate. .” Zuo Zhong snorted coldly.

"Good section chief, is it our Corey?" Not knowing the depth of the matter, Gu Qi hesitated.

Zuo Zhong explained Ling Sanping's discovery and his own speculation, and finally concluded: "Whether it's Corey or Department, there must be something wrong, otherwise it can't explain the gunner knowing the location and defense of the safe point so quickly."

Gu Qi touched his bald head: "That's the reason, okay, I understand."

Zuo Zhong warned again: "If you need manpower, go to Wu Chunyang from the Secret Letter Unit. He is from the special training class in Hangzhou, so you can trust him. As for other people, you need to be careful."

Gu Qi is also an old player, and he immediately expressed his understanding, left in a hurry, Zuo Zhong didn't hang him up, and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, he deserved it.

It's good to be a leader, many things can be arranged, just wait for the rewards, Zuo Zhong has nothing to do to tease He Yijun, and ran to harass Ling Sanping, and he lived a very happy life.

He was having a good time, but the intelligence department was exhausted. In the first case after the reorganization of the intelligence department, everyone worked hard. After working day and night, clues were unearthed.

A ticket inspector proved that two of the gunmen were seen on the train from Shanghai to Jinling on the day of the incident. At that time, the two men were wearing robes and had no luggage around them.

The rickshaw driver at the station identified another shooter, and he took him to a hotel in Jinling City. The man didn't speak much on the way, but the driver judged from the only conversation that he spoke with a northeast accent.

The hotel owner confirmed that more than a dozen adult men came one after another that day and opened different rooms. There was no communication during the period, and the certificates used were fine, all issued by the Shanghai Police Station.

The cigarette seller outside the hotel recalled that there were a lot of guests that day. He didn't see where these people went, but he noticed a police car parked nearby. He remembered it clearly because he was afraid of being driven away by the police.

The owner of the police uniform factory identified that the police uniforms worn by the shooter were produced by the factory. According to the files of the Police Department, this batch of police uniforms has been distributed widely, and all police stations in Jinling have distributed them.

The engineers of the Jinling Arsenal confirmed that the weapons used by the gunmen were made in Germany and were not produced by the Arsenal of the Republic of China. However, inquiries and negotiations with German firms failed.

The owner of the clothing store near the safe point proved that he seemed to have seen a police car before the gunshots rang out, but he was not sure. The clerk in the store was sure that he saw a car, a police car, and a black car of the same model.

——According to the photos given, the car the guy saw was a black Ford sedan. This is a uniformly ordered vehicle by the government. It is the same model as Zuo Zhong's car. There are 29 cars in all major police stations.

The owner of a nearby newsstand confirmed that the gunshot was fired at 9:19 a.m., and he checked his watch at that time. The vehicle from Jinling Police Station arrived at 9:50 a.m.

——The intelligence department has conducted many experiments. It takes 5 minutes to drive from the nearest police station to the scene of the crime. After inquiring about the shops and stalls on the route, the witnesses all proved that there was no traffic jam or other accidents along the way that day.

It was proved that 20 minutes after the gunshot, a black car drove away at high speed towards Hanzhong Gate. According to inquiries and investigations along the way, the car finally disappeared near Mochou Lake.

As a result of the investigation of the espionage suspect's network, no changes were found.

As a result of the internal personnel investigation, there were a total of 82 people from the Secret Service on the day of the incident, including Zuo Zhong.

——A total of 59 people have missions, 32 of them have more than two witnesses, and 27 have at least one witness. These people have no time and opportunity to contact the outside world.

——There were 23 people who went out without missions. A total of 20 people could prove the route, time, and whereabouts. Only 3 people could not confirm their whereabouts, and one of them was a member of the intelligence department.

Looking at the information in his hand, Zuo Zhong couldn't help but lament that this is the power of the state. People leave their names, and geese leave their voices. As long as there is a track of action, the country can find it out if it wants to.

The investigation was almost done, Zuo Zhong summoned all his subordinates to go to the meeting, and at the same time asked Wu Chunyang to guard the door, not allowing anyone to enter or leave.

Zuo Zhong saw that everyone was here, whispered a few words to Gu Qi who was on the side, glanced around and said: "Now, please supervise each other, unload the guns on your body, and unload the clips."

The spies down there felt tense, and honestly took out their weapons, and dealt with them according to Zuo Zhong's request, and kept their eyes on the colleagues around them, to prevent anyone from jumping over the wall in a hurry.

Seeing that the hidden danger was eliminated, Zuo Zhong roared angrily, "Zhao Er, where did you go when the shooting happened!"

There was a commotion in the crowd, and one person was pinched tightly by two spies around him, took out his weapon, and pressed him to Zuo Zhong.

"Zhao Er, you are an old man in the secret service, do you know how the military law and the department deal with traitors?" Zuo Chong stared at him intently.

"I know." Zhao Er's face turned pale with fright.

Zuo Zhong said angrily again: "Knowing that you still dare to communicate with foreign countries and help the enemy kill your own comrades!"

Zhao Er was already incoherent: "It's not me, I didn't, section chief, you have to trust me, I didn't collude with the Japanese."

The people present were in an uproar, Zhao Er didn't tell himself, thinking of the Secret Service's handling of the traitor, many people subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

"Hehe, I haven't said it yet, how do you know the Japanese. Zhao Er, Zhao Er, you were Zhao Lijun's driver before, and he should have cleared you up after the incident happened. It is pitiful for you to let you stay in the department." , Is this how you repay Virgo?" Zuo Chong patted the table.

With the sound of slapping the table, Zhao Er fell to his knees and wiped his tears: "Section Chief, please forgive me, I can't help it, they have something against me, I have to do it."
