Chapter 521 Settlement
Chapter 521 Settlement
While speaking, Zuo Zhong's car passed through a black iron gate and drove into a garden. A three-story western-style building stood in the center of the yard, and on the left was a long row of new bungalows.
Several secret service personnel came in and out of these buildings with water basins, obviously cleaning, and Tongsuo stood in the corner pointing fingers and talking to a few small spies.
"This place is not good, the wall and the window of the western-style building are too close, not to mention intelligence personnel, even ordinary thieves can break in, either arrange people here, or seal the windows.
There is no need to stretch barbed wire on the wall. There is no foreign language school with barbed wire in Shanghai. You are telling the gangsters outside that there is a problem here, just put some broken glass in the corner of the wall. "
Tongsuo is using his old business to help secret agents discover and repair security loopholes. After walking around for a few times, his face is full of seriousness. Judging from the current situation, the hidden dangers here are very serious.
This courtyard was originally an ordinary residential house. The architect only considered the beauty and practicality, completely ignoring the safety. From the perspective of professional thieves, it is no different from being undefended.
He imitated the appearance of the deputy director, crossed his hips, and scanned the surroundings with full concentration, trying to find a corresponding solution. This is an errand assigned by Corey, and he will be punished if he makes a mistake.
"Tongsuo, what are you doing kid?" Zuo Zhong got out of the car and shouted, strode to the other side, looked him up and down and said: "What do you want me to do? Have you completed the task for you?"
"It's almost there, but there are too many loopholes in the yard, and the security measures can barely prevent thieves from coming in. There is nothing to do with professional spies." Tongsuo introduced the situation carefully.
Zuo Chong listened to the report, then looked at the men who laid the broken glass on the ground, and shook his head indifferently: "We didn't carry secret information or valuables, and we are not afraid of people sneaking in and stealing them.
Let the patrol personnel strengthen their vigilance to ensure that important meetings and conversations are not monitored. This is not the territory of the national government. "
After he finished speaking, he beckoned Wu Chunyang: "Notify Gui Youguang and the others, let's hurry up and have a short meeting. After the meeting, you will accompany me to the Shanghai Station of the Secret Service Headquarters to see that old boy Xu Enzeng."
Xu Enzeng is in Shanghai?
Wu Chunyang really didn't know about this. Many people rumored that the other party was under house arrest by Er Chen, but he didn't expect to come here. It's just why the deputy director wanted to find someone with the surname Xu. Could it be related to the mission?
Is the Secret Service and the Secret Service Headquarters going to meet again? If it is true, then there will be a good show. After calling everyone to the temporary conference room, he immediately asked an important question.
"Deputy director, what is our next task? Do we need to send people out to collect basic information? The information given by the East China region is too scattered and not of much use value."
"No, everyone will take a break after they settle down. I will notify someone individually about the specific tasks. Unless otherwise specified, everyone is not allowed to ask each other or inquire about their respective tasks."
Zuo Zhong glanced at the people present, announced the confidentiality requirements for this operation, and continued: "Remove all the phones in the room, leaving only one for use in the lobby of the western-style building.
Remember to send special personnel to guard 24 hours a day. Anyone including me must record the time, the number of the incoming and outgoing calls, and the content of the conversation, and they must sign and sign for confirmation. "
"Yes."
The crowd replied in unison.
Then the big bald man who had been silent just now raised his hand: "Deputy Director, the strength of the action team is the small-scale operations with multiple people. If it is split up, it will be difficult to exert its due strength."
"Organize the team well, and you don't have to worry about other things." Zuo Zhong glanced past his bald head, and added: "When you go out, remember to wear a hat or a wig, and don't give away your whereabouts."
Gui Youguang touched his forehead when he heard the words, and replied reluctantly: "Old Song Xianghao sold me some wigs, most people can't tell them apart, and I spent a lot of money to buy these things."
Zuo Zhong pretended not to hear, this bastard made a lot of money, but every time he went out to eat, he rubbed off on others, and he didn't know what to save so much money for, after thinking about it, he looked up at everyone again.
"Is there anything else to ask?"
"Report, I have one thing."
Shen Dongxin held his head high and said, "Before I left, I received a telegram from home, and a classmate from the Saint-Cyr Military Academy sent me a letter saying that he had graduated from the Republic of China and worked in the police station of the French Concession.
I think it is necessary to meet with the other party to catch up on the old days. It may be useful in the future. The French Concession has strict control over government personnel. If there is a misunderstanding, it will be troublesome. It is better to establish a good relationship in advance. "
Zuo Zhong nodded. It is not uncommon for Saint-Cyr graduates to go to the police department of the colony. After all, many people go to the military academy just to open up contacts, and they don't really want to go to the battlefield.
Shanghai is a world-renowned metropolis with good living conditions. It is better to be a part-time official in the real power department here than to be a low-level military officer or go to Annan to watch monkeys bark their teeth.
Thinking of this, he became interested, and asked curiously: "What is your classmate's background, which patrol room he works in, what level, can he develop into a mole, or reach a cooperative relationship."
"This... I'm afraid it will be difficult."
Shen Dongxin looked embarrassed, and explained: "His father is a big businessman in France, he has contacts with many big figures, he has no shortage of money and power, and he came to the French Concession entirely to survive the military service period.
In the letter, he said that he served as the chief inspector of the central arrest house, but based on my understanding of him, this person definitely spent more time in nightclubs than in the patrol house, which can be used. "
Oh, it turned out to be the French version of Xu Enzeng.
As for the rank of inspector general, firstly, the lowest-ranking patrol officer in the patrol room is divided into three grades, and the detective above the patrol is also divided into three grades, and the next-level inspector or inspector is divided into two grades, and the highest rank is the inspector general.
Above the inspector-general, there are chief inspectors and deputy chief inspectors, but these two positions are held by military personnel, so Shen Dongxin's classmates took positions below one person and above ten thousand people in the French Concession as soon as they graduated.
Having a good dad is amazing.
Zuo Zhong thought for a moment and nodded: "Go and try it out. Humans have weaknesses. Tell me how much money you need. A chief inspector with a solid background is worth paying a lot of money for."
"Yes."
Shen Dongxin replied solemnly, his face was full of nervousness, soliciting and instigating rebellion is a very dangerous job, the difficulty is to drag the other party into the water without exposing himself in the action.
This is a test for him, otherwise, if the intelligence relationship is not developed, he will go to the prison to eat. How to say the right words at the right time is a deep knowledge.
Zuo Zhong understood the difficulties involved and the risks involved. It's just that as an intelligence officer, he doesn't need to shoot, but he must have the ability to have both sides. That's how everyone else came here.
In troubled times, one must not only be cruel to others, but also to be cruel to oneself. If this hurdle cannot be overcome, he would rather Shen Dongxin return to Ningbo, and move to Australia with the Shen family after the limelight in Beilun Port passes.
"Okay, the meeting is over."
The task this time was very important, Zuo Zhong didn't want to waste time, so he decisively ended the meeting, got into the car with Wu Chunyang, and drove towards the periphery of the concession, which was under the control of the government.
"Deputy Director, a Shanghai station is next to the Shanghai Police Department. They have a good relationship. They have cooperated many times in the past few years and arrested many underground party members. We must guard against those gangsters."
Wu Chunyang held the steering wheel and expressed his thoughts: "I want the people in the police department to remain neutral. Someone can help. As long as the other party sends a message, no one dares to meddle in their own business."
"You mean Mr. Du?"
Zuo Zhong chuckled softly: "Xu Enzeng, you don't need to bother that guy, you can't let the boss come forward for everything, but he is the righteous brother of the director, so I really have to visit Yu Li.
In this way, you prepare some gifts and go to see him in your spare time in two days. In terms of speaking, I have to call him uncle. We want to open up the situation in Shanghai this time. It is always a good thing to have multiple ways. "
He said uncle, but there was no respect in his tone, and the corners of his mouth in the rearview mirror were slightly raised, showing disdain, just like the Ming Dynasty loved to recognize godfathers, and sworn brothers were popular in the Republic of China.
To put it nicely, it is like-mindedness, but to put it badly, it is to use each other. Dai Chunfeng has the right to have guns, and Mr. Du has money and others.
How stupid would I be if I really regarded the other party as an elder who taught Taoism and industry? What can a gangster who sells tobacco and opens a technical academy teach others, how to eat black and be a big teapot.
For a role like Mr. Du, you should be neither far nor close, neither hot nor cold, because too far and too cold can't be used, too close and too hot can easily set yourself on fire.
Zuo Zhong watched as the car passed the checkpoint and entered the Chinese border. The idle British soldiers lay on the sandbags and yawned, ignoring the passing pedestrians and vehicles. The public concession was indeed lax.
He suddenly remembered that the luxury villa that Zheng Tingbing sent seemed to be here, he had to find a chance to identify the door, it was his own property anyway, so it would be good to use it as a safe house.
The cunning rabbit has three caves.
At this time, Wu Chunyang slowly parked the car at the gate of a small courtyard. The sign on the right side of the gate said Delong Electric Material Factory in five big characters.
"Hey! Business is here."
Zuo Zhong stuck his head out of the car window and yelled into the door. He couldn't help complaining about Xu Enzeng's brain problems. There is no factory that closes in broad daylight. He is treating people like idiots.
No wonder when the war started a few years later, the intelligence agents of the Central Command in the enemy-occupied areas were captured by the Japanese like fat pigs waiting to be slaughtered. Sure enough, the pig bosses were more terrifying than the pig teammates.
"Crench."
The iron gate of the factory was pushed open, and a rogue-eyed worker came out, cursing dirtyly: "What the hell, didn't you see that the gate is closed? We don't do business, so get out."
But before he could finish speaking, there was an extra ID card on the ground, and a voice rang out immediately: "Tell you Director Xu, the senior special commissioner of the bureau headquarters, the deputy director of the Secret Service, Zuo Zhongte, is here to visit."
