Chapter 387
"Oh? Let me see."

Zuo Zhong took the document and read it, and was immediately attracted by the clear and orderly content. To be honest, the clerical level of the intelligence department is not very good. After all, he is the chief of the department to set an example.

However, some documents had to be written, such as the statement in the dossier, the closing report, etc. In the past, he always delayed it as soon as he could, and handed it to He Yijun if he couldn't delay it.

Now that he saw Wu Jingzhong's report, he felt that he could let go of his writing work in the future, and these writing and drawing things could completely let old Wu do his best, tsk, this handwriting is so beautiful.

"It's unbelievable."

He put down the report in his hand, and said with emotion: "It is said that the investigation department has no talents, I think this is pure nonsense and jealousy, at least you are an excellent intelligence talent, Old Wu.

Using the method of investigating other cases as a breakthrough is very clever. I was worried at first, but now it seems unfounded. Well, the performance of other people is also good. "

"Thank you, Section Chief."

Wu Jingzhong replied succinctly, without the slightest hint of complacency, and still sat respectfully aside, waiting for the next question. He knew that Zuo Zhong's test of himself was not over yet.

At this time, He Yijun came in with coffee, and he quickly stood up to express his gratitude. The most important thing to offend in the officialdom is the chief's cronies, let alone the cronies of the opposite sex, who knows if there is a pillow problem.

Zuo Zhong took the coffee and nodded, motioned He Yijun to go out first, then said with a smile:

"I just took a look. You have set the screening criteria for suspicious persons very well, but the scope of screening is still too broad. You can try to rely on the Central Hospital. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Will this scare the snake away?" Wu Jingzhong asked hesitantly, "Section Chief, I'm sorry to ask you one more question, what happened in the Central Hospital, and why do you need to identify the dentist inside?"

"kindness?"

Zuo Zhong stopped patting the sofa, and said without anger: "You are also an old intelligence officer, don't say what you shouldn't say, don't look at what shouldn't be seen, don't ask what shouldn't be asked, there are no rules like this." Don't you understand?"

When he said don't ask what shouldn't be asked, he looked at the other party with sharp eyes. Wu Jingzhong must give himself a reasonable explanation, otherwise he will start the internal screening, which is a standard procedure.

"The humble office made a mistake."

Wu Jingzhong was so frightened that he got up straight away: "It's just related to the investigation task, if we startled the other party and caused the failure of the overall operation, I will die, so I asked a lot.

After Jing Zhong came back from Sun Yat-sen University, he cut off contact with the underground party, and never had anything to do with other parties. What he said just now was really just for work considerations, and had absolutely no other meaning. "

King Sentence King was stared at by Zuo Zhong, and sweat continued to flow from his forehead. He felt that Section Chief Zuo's nickname should not be called Smiling Tiger, but Smiling Dog.

No wonder the people in the intelligence department obeyed Zuo Zhong's words and were often frightened so suddenly. Who could bear it? There is a moody boss, so I have to be more careful in the future.

Zuo Zhong looked at him for a long time, and then pressed his hand expressionlessly after a long time: "Just this one time, not as an example, in the intelligence department, you can have curiosity about the Japanese, but you can't have it about your own people and official affairs.

If I can let you know, I will definitely tell you. If I can’t tell you, that’s what the circumstances of the case require. Next, you lead someone to continue secretly investigating the use of the bus, and don’t ask about the rest. "

He said these words not because he was unreasonable, but because these people had just arrived in Jinling, and their actions and thinking were still the same as those of the investigation department. Their sloppy style of work must be corrected in a short time.

If you don't say the ugly things first, let them get used to doing things on their own, and when the time comes, these people will go to arrest the underground party on their own initiative, then how should they deal with it and kill their comrades?

He was able to lurk in the Secret Service, which was the greatest help to the organization. Those big storms had come through before, and it would be too wronged if his identity was exposed because of these dog spies.

Here Wu Jingzhong nodded again and again: "Yes, I will tell everyone that the investigation will also be carried out around the Central Hospital. If there is any problem, I will report to you in time. Such a thing will never happen again."

He felt the meaning of Zuo Zhong's beating, which made him wish to slap himself. Now he is the chief of the investigation department who is appreciated by Wenyi and supported by Zhang Yifu, so he has to be cautious in his words and deeds.

If he couldn't get his position right, he would be squeezed out. He made up his mind that he would come to Section Chief Zuo's office to report every day from now on, not for flattery, but just for understanding the spirit.

Finally Wu Jingzhong left tremblingly.

Zuo Chong waited for him to walk out of the office, narrowed his eyes, got up and walked to the desk, put the investigation report just now into the drawer, and then took out a new document from it.

This is the investigation report on the secret passage of Tianfu, as well as the testimony of witnesses.

From the place where the drag marks were found to the trestle bridge, it was measured on foot for almost one kilometer, or 1000 meters.

The small river runs from east to west, the place where Tianfu enters the water is in the west, and Tangzi Lane, where Min Ping lives, is in the east, so Tianfu flows downstream, and with the use of paddles, the moving speed will not be too slow.

The surveillance point near Zhongshan Road did not hear any sound, probably because the other party stopped paddling when passing the bridge on Zhongshan Road, and he was brought to the trestle by the current.

As for going back, the moat is not a big river with fast-flowing water. As long as the movement is slow, the noise will not be too loud. From any angle, it is safer than approaching Min Ping's residence from land.

Therefore, there are two more characteristics of Tianfu, good at sailing and familiar with water.

It is not so easy to keep the boat in the right direction in the river. If there is no professional training, the boat will just drift with the current or turn in place, even if the current is not urgent.

And if the boat capsizes, if you can save yourself without being able to call for help, this proves that Tianfu's water quality is not bad. No spy is willing to be drowned in water. This kind of death is too embarrassing.

However, apart from the Navy's intelligence agencies, ordinary intelligence personnel seldom receive training in boat handling, because there is no need for them. Spies are human, and their energy is limited, so they can only pick up important things to learn.

Zuo Zhong scratched his head, asking if the Kwantung Army had a navy. Except for the inland river gunboat fleet in Puppet Manchukuo, the Kwantung Army didn’t seem to have a systematic naval force. Where did the government learn how to operate a boat?

is a question.

He picked up the second document, which was the testimony of an eyewitness. The other party saw a car without driving lights last night, leaving the dirt road next to Jinling Middle School on the highway and heading south.

The exact time is unknown, and you can't expect a duck farmer to have a watch. According to the witness, it was about eight o'clock, because the school turned off the lights at eight o'clock, and the witness saw the car after the lights were turned off.

The color of the car is unknown, and there is no other way. Witnesses often eat the offal of poultry, so they can see the car.

As for the identification of the model, after seeing the photos of most models in Jinling, the witness only said four words, which were big and long. This was his impression of the car, and the specific model could not be identified.

Big and long, what a clue.

Now popular cars in Jinling, except for the Ford Model T, all other models meet these two characteristics, because the aesthetics of this era is like this, the bigger the better, the more stylish the better.

Zuo Zhong took out a pen and typed the four words in a circle. Regarding the car itself, the testimony seems to only confirm one thing, that is, the car driven by Tianfu is not small, and the small car can be ruled out by touch.

He thought for a while and didn't inform Wu Jingzhong of this news. The reliability of witnesses and testimonies is not high, and small cars cannot be easily ruled out. God knows what that duck-raiser used for comparison.

Maybe a carriage, but all cars are big and long.

In addition, the only function of the testimonies was to tell them where the car was going. South of Jinling Middle School was Xinjiekou, the busiest intersection in Jinling, leading to all places in Jinling.

To the east, you can go to the National Government, to the south, you can go to the Secret Service, and to the west, you can go outside the city. It is unrealistic to find the driving track. Tianfu is really familiar with Jinling.

Zuo Zhong stared at the map of Jinling and fell into deep thought. The other party should not go west. The road out of the city is very desolate, and there are very few vehicles at night, which is not conducive to hiding the trajectory of his actions.

The direction of the Secret Service is very lively. There are Chaotian Palace and dense residential areas, but there are too many people and the roads are often congested. Cars can't take advantage of the speed and it is not easy to carry out anti-tracking.

At the same time, the slow speed and the high flow of people will allow more people to see the driving track. Tianfu's prudence determines that he is unlikely to take this road, so there is only one road left for him.

Go east, to the National Government.

The main road from Xinjiekou to the east is called Lusheng Road. On both sides are the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Agriculture and other agencies. There are also many private houses, but they are all large new-style houses with a small number of residents.

The nearby roads are in good condition. The streets and alleys are wide enough for cars to drive on. The concrete road will not leave any wheel marks. If you turn around there late at night, it is easy to find out if there are stalkers behind you.

Thinking about this clearly, Zuo Zhong suddenly had a guess. Not only did Tianfu work have something to do with the Central Hospital, but he might also live near the Nationalist Government, which was lurking in the heart of the Republic of China.

Although I don't know the situation of the other members of the Nandou team, it is not a coincidence that the death mailbox, the other party's possible work place or haunt, and the retreat route all revolve around the Nationalist government.

He put the two documents back into the drawer, locked the lock, got up and stood in front of the window, looked at the sycamore tree in the yard and thought about it, then turned around and picked up the phone on the table: "Help me pick up Section Chief Wu Chunyang."

During the mission, the intelligence department's calls were connected through internal lines. Even if the lines themselves were set up in the municipal telephone network, the people from the telephone company did not have the authority to monitor them. This is progress.

The two sides have been fighting for so long, the Japanese are making progress, and the Secret Service is also making progress. After destroying the Nandou team, they should be able to rest for a while, just in time to deal with the people from the First Division and the Investigation Section.

Just as he was thinking, Wu Chunyang's voice rang on the other end of the phone: "Is it the section chief?"
