Chapter 827
Half-mountain hut.

The official name is the dormitory for single professors of Jiangcheng University. It is located on the mountainside at the northern foot of Luojia Mountain. It was completed only five or six years ago. It is a two-story brick-wood structure residential building covering an area of ​​five to six hundred square meters.

The color of the whole small building is simple and clumsy, all green bricks and ink tiles, with a low-key and simple appearance. It is said that professors from Jiang University who study the Book of Changes participated in the construction and site selection process, which is very eloquent.

After the national government was defeated and retreated to Jiangcheng, a certain person, his wife and other officials stayed here. It is said that an officer training class will be held here to train a group of various cadres needed in wartime.

Of course, these are all secrets. Only a few people know where a certain person lives. After all, the Japanese planes are raging.

As for why Wu Chunyang knew about it, it was because the Secret Service undertook part of the security work and had the right to know about the situation.

In short, when Zuo Zhong heard that the bald head would meet Gu Zhongya at Banshanlu, he immediately realized the hidden risks behind this incident.

Now that the enemy is at hand, the other party, as the head of the national government, must not have any accidents, and must prevent Gu Zhongya from going to the official residence.

But the interview is imminent, and it is definitely too late to give feedback through formal channels.

Moreover, Yao Li's interrogation has not yet started, and the Secret Service has no direct evidence to prove that Yao Li and Gu Zhongya have contact.

A major general officer from Whampoa and the director of the Operations Department of the Air Defense Command cannot be prosecuted by reasoning alone. They need time and evidence.

Although the bald head gave the secret service the right to act arbitrarily, allowing him to cut first and play later, but such words should be listened to and must not be taken seriously.

If this is really done, once Gu Zhongya's classmates and friends get into trouble, the bald head will [-]% take him to calm down the anger.

To deal with the enemy, one must first preserve oneself, the toughness is easy to break, the ancestors explained the truth long ago.

Thinking of this, Zuo Zhong walked around the house twice and quickly issued two orders.

"Gui Youguang, immediately take someone to the air defense headquarters on the only way to Banshanlu, I don't care what method you use to stop the vehicle carrying Gu Zhongya.

And on the premise of not revealing his identity, try to let this guy lie in the hospital or at home for a period of time. Jiangcheng's air defense work cannot be handed over to a person with questionable identity.

Wu Chunyang transferred all of Gu Zhongya's files, traced back all his experiences from birth to the present, and focused on investigating whether this person was replaced by an impostor. "

Since the investigation cannot be made public, and people cannot be arrested directly, other methods can only be used. Nowadays, Jiangcheng is a mixed bag, and it is normal for some "accidents" to occur.

"Yes, don't worry."

"Understood, Deputy Director."

After returning the order, Gui Youguang and Wu Chunyang turned around and ran, not daring to delay at all, they knew that they were racing against time.

"Deputy Director, what about us?"

Gu Qi asked for Song Minghao and others.

"Let's go and meet Yao Li. According to what the arresting officer said, he cares about his relatives very much, so he should be able to open a breakthrough quickly."

Zuo Zhong pondered for a moment, and felt that Yao Li's identity as a spy should be confirmed first, and the nature of the case should be clarified before thinking about other things.

In this way, a group of people secretly left the Jiangcheng Telephone Office and went to No. 33 Pingyue Road to prepare for the interrogation.

On the other side of Wuchang, Gu Zhongya stood at the entrance of Jiangcheng Air Defense Command, tiptoed to look at the end of the road, and raised his hand to look at his watch from time to time.

After a long time, a black car with a civilian license plate slowly stopped in front of him, and the co-pilot stepped down a young man with a serious expression.

The person who came first checked the documents, and then took out the photos to compare them carefully, and then opened the car door to signal him to get in the car, without saying a word during the process.

Facing the cold reception, Gu Zhongya sat in the back row with a normal expression, and the behavior of the attendant's room was like this. Who would let someone be "a close minister of the emperor".

Regardless of the fact that these people's ranks are not high, they are all walking in the military aircraft department in the front court. When they see an officer, they are automatically promoted one level. He, a small major general, has no right to embarrass the opponent.

After Gu Zhongya sat down, the car swished out, galloped along the road towards the east, and drove a long way.

In the carriage, the young man leaned slightly sideways and said: "Major General Gu, please note that the whereabouts of the (Harmony) chairman and the location of the official residence are top secret.

Don't disclose what you saw or heard today. The Special Affairs Department of the Military Commission will verify this. If there is any violation, you will be severely punished. "

"Okay, I know the rules."

Gu Zhongya nodded lightly, and kept sneering in his heart. A certain person does not know how many people have to be interviewed for reports a day, even if it is the Secret Service, it is impossible to monitor everyone.

If it weren't for the fear that it would be easy to reveal his identity if he took the initiative to inquire about the news, he would be able to find out the location of the official residence by simply asking any old friend, without having to wait for an interview.

While thinking, he quietly observed the environment outside the car window, recalled the map of Wuchang in his mind, and quickly analyzed the final destination.

The car is currently driving due east, and if you drive further, you will arrive at the East Lake. Could it be that the person lives by the lake? Gu Zhongya looked at the intersection in front of him thoughtfully, and then his eyes widened, showing fear.

"Bang~"

I saw a military truck rushing out of the intersection on the right, slammed into the middle and rear of the car, and pushed the car into the ditch.

Gu Zhongya, who was sitting in the back row, was the first to be hit by the impact. He flew out at that time, his head hit the door panel on the right, his eyes darkened and he fell into a coma.

The driver and the young man in the front row were also uncomfortable, their heads were lying on the seat drowsily, and they heard a few footsteps getting closer in a daze, and a strong smell of alcohol wafted faintly.

"MD, who dares to block the way of Secret Service Headquarters, I will kill you."

"Team leader calm down, calm down, there is a major general inside, let's go quickly."

"Bah! My elder sister (Harmony) husband is Director Xu, quickly drag this bastard out and beat him up, let this old boy stare at me just now, and I will take responsibility for what happened."

"This is!"

There was a conversation outside the car, and then the crooked rear door was pulled open forcefully, followed by the sound of punches and kicks.

A few minutes later, the "perpetrators" who had vented their anger dispersed and drove away in a truck, leaving the three unconscious.

It took half an hour for the people from the Jiangcheng Police Station to arrive at the scene. When the leading police officer saw the victim with a bruised nose and a swollen face wearing a major general uniform (harmony), his head was buzzing.

After finding out the certificates of the attendant's room from the other two, he was so frightened that his legs gave way and he sat on the ground directly, sweating profusely, and muttering to himself that something serious happened.

Soon, what happened here spread in Jiangcheng. Some said that the three of Gu Zhongya met robbers, some said it was sabotaged by Japanese spies, and everything was said.

The basement of No. 33 Pingyue Road.

Zuo Zhong touched the head of Yao Li's eldest son under the terrified eyes of the Yao family, and walked out with a smile, followed by Gu Qi, Song Minghao, Wu Jingzhong and Shen Dongxin.

Everyone came to the meeting room along the corridor, found a place to sit down, and began to discuss the results of the interrogation.

"Deputy Director, Chun Yang really guessed it right, Yao Li was indeed instigated by someone after entering the police station, and was in charge of collecting intelligence on the streets of Hankou.

It's a pity that the person who instigated him never appeared again. The carrier pigeon who usually communicates with him only uses the phone and dead mailbox to contact him. He only knows that the other party is a middle-aged man with a local accent.

Such people are everywhere in Jiangcheng, and there is no way to track them down, unless all the people of the right age in the city are called to let Yao Li identify the voices one by one. "

Gu Qi sighed regretfully, but he was not too disappointed. Spies have always been meticulous in their actions, so how could it be possible for outsiders to easily know their details.

"Yao Li doesn't know, but what about the owner of the paper making shop?" Wu Jingzhong interrupted.

Song Minghao's eyes lit up: "Yes, the other party can directly contact Gu Zhongya. He must be a core member of the spy organization. He might know something. Deputy director, do you want to arrest someone?"

"Not urgent."

Zuo Zhong shook his head, and asked back: "It's not been a day or two for us to deal with spies. Tell me, how many levels are Japanese intelligence teams generally divided into?"

Everyone is puzzled. According to past experience, the spy team is usually composed of three layers: the person in charge (the radio operator)-the carrier pigeon (the security post)-the mole.

In this case, the mole is Yao Li, the safety post is the owner of the paper-making shop, the carrier pigeon cannot be identified for the time being, and the person in charge is Gu Zhongya.

The process is clear, the division of labor is clear, there is no problem, why does the deputy director ask such a question.

Only Shen Dongxin thought of something, hesitated for a moment and raised his hand and said, "Report, isn't it too extravagant for the Japanese to set up a separate security post for Yao Li.

Because his occupation and network determine that he has no access to high-value information, is it worth spending so much energy and money on such a person?
So I think that the owner of the paper shop is not monitoring a certain person, but a group of people, but this conflicts with the spy organization's single-line communication habit.

If the other party is caught by us, the spies on this line will definitely be caught, the Japanese have suffered so many losses, and they will not make such low-level mistakes, unless..."

"Unless what?" Zuo Chong glanced at Shen Dongxin and asked with a smile.

"Unless Gu Zhongya is a carrier pigeon, he, Yao Li, and the owner of the paper shop are just part of this intelligence team. Yes, there should be people above them!"

Shen Dongxin became more excited as he spoke, and finally patted the table in front of him: "If I'm not mistaken, this is a group with multiple structures, and the traitors who collect intelligence are the first layer.

This layer has the largest number of people, is of low value, and can be discarded at any time, so there is no need to follow the single-line contact requirements of spy organizations in the past.

The owner of the paper shop is responsible for monitoring the movements of all the moles and reporting to Gu Zhongya. The two of them cooperate with each other and belong to the second floor.

Then Gu Zhongya reported to the real person in charge, the third layer, according to the situation, so a complete intelligence chain was formed.

There may be more than one such intelligence chain in Jiangcheng. There is no horizontal connection between them, and together they form a huge intelligence network.

As long as there is nothing wrong with the third floor, even if the first and second floors are arrested at the same time, it will not cause a fatal blow to the entire intelligence network, which is reasonable. "

Zuo Zhong raised his head after hearing this: "Where's the evidence? How can you confirm your guess?"

Shen Dongxin immediately replied: "Let Yao Li identify Gu Zhongya's phone recording, but I don't think there is much hope, the other party is a professional intelligence officer, and the voice must have been disguised during the call.

But the two had previously communicated through dead mailboxes and phone calls, and Gu Zhongya had to go out to send and receive (harmonious) information, so he couldn't use his office phone to call Yao Li.

We can collide the time and space trajectories of Yao Li and Gu Zhongya, especially during the connection, and look for the coincidence point in the middle, as long as we find it, it will prove my conjecture.

In addition, I suggest that all investigations against the owner of the paper shop and Gu Zhongya be stopped, so as to give the enemy the illusion that we have not found them.

As for how to track down the real person in charge of the spy team, it is up to you, the deputy director, to make the decision. I believe that under your leadership, we will be able to catch them all! "

The former high-achieving student of the Saint-Cyr Military Academy also learned to flatter, Zuo Zhong smiled, looked around the meeting room and spoke slowly.

"You heard it all, order the brothers in Hankou to retreat, and pay attention to concealment when withdrawing, we may have caught a big fish this time."

Even the major general director of the air defense command ranks on the second floor, so what is the identity of the real spy chief, everyone can't help but guess.
