Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Old Xu was watching Zhang Anping's layout this time. He saw Zhang Anping hammering here and there. After all the operations, Xu Baichuan, who was "watching the game", wasted countless brain cells, but in the end he was left with confusion.

Although this has been the case in the past as well.

But at least the core purpose was known before. No matter how hard Zhang Anping hit with his hammer, he was ultimately aiming for the core purpose.

But this time, Old Xu didn't understand at all what Zhang Anping was going for.

At this moment, when he heard Zhang Anping say that it would be his turn soon, Old Xu instantly became alert:

"Hurry up and tell me! I feel like I'm going to make the final decision!"

Zhang Anping was stunned and thought to himself, Old Xu, you are right.

Snapped

Zhang Anping slammed a file on the table.

"Bai Dayi, cryptography expert, creator of the current code in the Third War Zone."

Zhang Anping's introduction made Xu Baichuan look confused. He picked up the file and read it again and again, and said in confusion:

"Why didn't I know about this person?"

He is the commander-in-chief of the Loyal Rescue Army, how could he not know about such a person?

"Wait—this resume is wrong."

Xu Baichuan suddenly realized after seeing a resume in the file: "Fake?"

"Ah."

"What do you want to do?"

"Of course, it's to rescue this guy."

Xu Baichuan suddenly realized: "Are you going to give the Japanese a set of fake code books?"

As expected of himself as the top pendant on Zhang Shihao's thigh, Old Xu, who had always been confused, finally understood Zhang Anping's real purpose at this time.

"Almost the same, but it's not a code book, it's a secret message book. If you give the Japanese a code book, they will definitely be suspicious. It's better to give them the secret message book and let them work hard to decipher it."

Zhang Anping smiled and said, "The credibility of the hard-deciphered information is much easier for the Japanese to believe than directly giving them the code book."

Now that Old Xu was about to take action, Zhang Anping naturally had no need to keep the matter in suspense and began to tell everyone his entire plan.

Zhang Anping's specific plan was designed as follows:

Bai Dayi, the top cryptographer of the Nationalist government, was arrested when he secretly sneaked into Shanghai to invite his old classmates to Chongqing.

But because his disguise was so perfect, the Japanese did not realize his true identity.

Bai Dayi was arrested by Wang Tianfeng, so Wang Tianfeng had to step in to rescue Bai Dayi.

The subsequent design is:
Gu Shenyan suspected that Wang Tianfeng was a fake defector, so he kept an eye on him. After realizing that Wang Tianfeng had been secretly investigating something, he became wary and eventually discovered that Wang Tianfeng wanted to rescue a captured person, so he reported the information to Ito.

The next step is the most important, because the next thing must be done by Ito himself, and Gu Shenyan cannot participate, otherwise Gu Shenyan will face the risk of being exposed.

"Then how do you operate this link?" Xu Baichuan asked in confusion: "What if Ito finds out that Wang Tianfeng is a fake defector and kills Lao Wang immediately?"

"Old Wang, nothing can happen to you, otherwise how are you going to sing the rest of the play?"

Facing Xu Baichuan's question, Zhang Anping smiled and said, "Give him a big enough bait - isn't Bai Dayi's bait big enough?"

"How do we choose the role of Bai Dayi? It's hard to find such a person." Old Xu was stunned: "Fuck, you don't want me to play this Bai Dayi, do you? No, according to your arrangement, Bai Dayi should have been arrested long ago!"

"Anping, this person's selection is crucial. It may not be easy for him to gain the trust of the Japanese!"

Zhang Anping laughed and said, "Why are you obsessed with Bai Dayi, a non-existent person? Unless there is a top expert with the same resume and talent as him, otherwise he is just a piece of shit! He can't be hidden from the eyes of Japanese cryptographers at all!"

"Indeed, so what are you going to do?"

"It's very simple. Let them secretly obtain a new secret message book--" Zhang Anping asked with a smile: "If you have a chance to obtain the enemy's secret message book without the enemy being able to detect it, in this case, would you kill this cryptographer?"

Xu Baichuan's eyes lit up: "Of course not! I will find a way to secretly get the secret book, and then let the other party escape. As long as he can't find out that the secret book has been copied by me, then I will just sit back and wait for the net to close!"

"Isn't this the end?"

Xu Baichuan roughly understood Zhang Anping's arrangement. He closed his eyes and thought, and began to "find faults". After thinking for a while, he asked:
"I have a question, how did you solve it?"

"explain."

"With the capabilities of the Shanghai station, if Bai Dayi is arrested, there are countless ways for the Shanghai station to rescue him without exposing his identity, right? Wang Tianfeng's intervention is probably the most unreasonable way!"

Xu Baichuan was very confused about this.

No matter whether Bai Dayi was arrested by the Ito Agency, the Security Bureau, the Special High Police, or the Military Police, he would definitely not escape the eyes of the Shanghai Station. It doesn't make sense for Wang Tianfeng to use this as a reason to join the game!
Zhang Anping uttered three words lightly: "Deyun Division!"

Deyunbu is certainly not Deyun Club. It is an intelligence agency of the Japanese Navy. Together with the Third Department of the Naval General Staff, it is the two major intelligence agencies of the Japanese Navy.

"The Navy did it?"

Zhang Anping smiled and said, "Not long ago, a group of overseas Chinese returning from the United States were secretly arrested by the Japanese at the dock. It was the Deyun tribe that did it. Doesn't that make sense?"

Naturally, this was done by Jiang Sian, but he extricated himself from the matter very cleanly. Whether it was obtaining the information or arresting people, it had nothing to do with him.

Xu Baichuan continued to nitpick: "Bai Dayi's identity is so special, why did he welcome these people?"

"First, some of these people have participated in the design of American warships. Second, according to reliable information, these people were instigated by the underground party and intended to go to the Communist Party. We intended to control them secretly, but one of them was Bai Dayi's classmate and also a cryptographer. That's why Bai Dayi personally stepped in to take him away before we could do anything."

Zhang Anping's answer left Xu Baichuan no longer with any doubts.

He thought to himself: Anping is an expert in design and layout. How could he leave such a big loophole in order to deceive the Japanese?

He then asked eagerly:

"So what do I do?"

Zhang Anping said solemnly: "Old Xu, your mission is very important. The success or failure of the plan depends on you."

Xu Baichuan said solemnly: "Don't worry, I will definitely - wait, what am I going to do?"

Zhang Anping coughed dryly:
"It's like this. I estimate that it will only take a few days. By then, you will have to reveal your whereabouts and cover my actions. Your mission is very important, because your presence will make Ito believe that he has seen through my plan. The success or failure of this plan depends on you."

Xu Baichuan looked at Zhang Anping in confusion. Zhang Anping responded to Old Xu's gaze innocently. After a long time, Xu Baichuan said in frustration:

"So after all my waiting, I ended up with a role as bait?"

Zhang Anping patted Xu Baichuan on the shoulder and said, "There's a saying in the Communist Party that revolutionary work is not divided by high or low status. There's no bait on my chessboard!"

"Of course there is no bait. In your plan, everyone is the bait!" Xu Baichuan complained unhappily.

……

In fact, Zhang Anping’s plan goes beyond this.

In this plan, he had calculated Ito Masashi to the extreme.

However, Zhang Anping was very sure that Ito Masashi was an old fox. If the other party came to his senses, everything would be in vain.

So what’s the best way?
Of course, the plan is to let Ito fall into the trap and then drag him into a new vortex, leaving him with no energy to come back to his senses.

This vortex is the smuggling network in Shanghai.

Although Jiang Sian, with the identity of Okamoto Heiji, can get along well among the Japanese, Zhang Anping is not very confident that he can rely on him to plot against Ito.

So after the plan entered a new stage, Zhang Anping secretly contacted Jiang Sian - next he would temporarily act as Jiang Sian's think tank, using Shanghai's smuggling network as a weapon to firmly restrain Ito after his "great victory".

After the two met, Jiang Sian reported on his current arrangements:
"Teacher, we are ready here. As long as Ito and I start a fight, we will immediately suffer a severe backlash."

"Just give the order and it will start immediately."

Zhang Anping waved his hand: "The time is not right yet."

"But Ito pushed me very hard."

"Then let's get some small fish and shrimp first."

Jiang Sian wondered: "Doesn't this give people the feeling of alarming the enemy?"

He believed that in order to destroy the smuggling network in Shanghai, the problem must be solved with lightning speed. Once the cleaning started from small to large, there would inevitably be a fierce backlash.

"When did I say I was going to destroy this smuggling network?!"

Zhang Anping's words confused Jiang Si'an. If he didn't destroy this smuggling network, wouldn't he be in trouble?
He reached an agreement with Ito, which was related to his personality. If he was fickle, his personality would collapse.

He gets along very well among the Japanese, not because of his extraordinary abilities, but because of his personality!

His character is a fanatical militarist. For the sake of Japan's invasion, he is a model of sacrificing his family to help others. Without this character, many of his actions reveal four words from the inside out:
With ulterior motives!

His image must be maintained, so after reaching an agreement with Ito, he must fulfill it, even if Ito has bad intentions.

Ito bullied his "patriotism", but for the sake of his character, he had to jump into the trap even though he knew it was a trap.

Facing Zhang Anping's question, Jiang Sian was stunned and said:
"Teacher, this will cause problems for me. I am not afraid of being imprisoned, but I am worried that this will ruin your plan."

Facing Jiang Si'an, who seemed to be possessed by Xu Zhongyi, Zhang Anping said helplessly: "Have you ever heard of the saying, 'boil the frog in warm water'?"

"Given the weight of the Ito Organization, the stakeholders would not care if they caught some small fish and shrimps, thinking that this was just a routine cleanup. They might even think that this was Ito's way of greeting them and asking for a share of the spoils."

"I understand." Jiang Sian nodded.

"Got it? So what are you going to do?"

Jiang Si'an said as a matter of course: "Of course I made this suggestion to Ito based on your words, teacher."

Zhang Anping was speechless: "Fortunately, you pulled yourself out of this vortex early. Otherwise, after Xu Zhongyi left, you would have been eaten up in this lucrative smuggling network!"

Jiang Sian asked cautiously: "Teacher, did I understand it wrong?"

"That's outrageous - you have to do this, but Ito has to take the blame. Do you understand?" Zhang Anping taught: "You should be able to see that Ito Masashi wants to kill two birds with one stone, right?"

"Ah."

"Since you can see it, you should be cooperative and defensive when you act!"

"For this kind of thing, you used the Ito mechanism and accomplished it without Ito Masashi's knowledge. After he realized what was happening, he would have no choice but to admit it."

Jiang Sian suddenly realized. If he did it in the name of Ito's agency, it would be equivalent to strengthening his bond with Ito Masashi. Even if Ito wanted to get rid of him at a critical moment, no one would believe it!

This is very much in line with Heiji Okamoto's approach.

"I understand."

Jiang Sian was not as shameless as Xu Zhongyi. He agreed very solemnly and expressed his gratitude to Zhang Anping. If he were Xu Zhongyi, he would definitely learn from Zhang Anping to act cute and act like an elephant in front of Lao Dai.

Zhang Anping warned solemnly: "Also, Ito is a man full of tricks. Once he puts all his attention on you, you must be cautious, cautious, and cautious!"

"I see."

……

Under Zhang Anping's remote control, Jiang Sian gave Ito Masashi a surprise with his backhand.

He mobilized the secret agents of Ito Agency to raid the smuggling warehouses in various places overnight, arrested five smuggling gangs, big (small) and small (tiny), and confiscated various materials worth hundreds of thousands of yen.

The most outrageous thing was that the people who were arrested that night were all praised in the newspapers of the next day for Ito's agency.

Although these news reports are written in different ways, they all highlight one point:
Director Ito has zero tolerance for anything that infringes upon the interests of the empire!
……

Ito Masashi learned the news early in the morning on his way to work. He was taking a nap in the car when the newsboy's crisp voice came:

"Big news, big news! Ito's agency destroyed a large number of smuggling dens!"

"Sell newspapers! Sell newspapers! Ito Agency strikes hard, many smuggling dens are destroyed, and many smuggling criminals are arrested!"

"Ito Agency issued a solemn statement! The legitimate interests of Japan and China must be maintained! Any behavior that infringes upon the legitimate interests of Japan and China will be the enemy of the empire!"

The newsboy's crisp shout almost broke his defense. He suppressed his anger and signaled the driver to stop the car. After asking his secretary to buy a newspaper, Ito quickly began to read it.

Seeing this, Ito Masashi almost jumped up.

Well, Ito Agency claimed that it would arrest all smugglers, but he, the head of the agency, had not heard any news at all.

Who the hell is the person in charge of Ito Agency?

There is no doubt that the name Okamoto Heiji appeared in his mind as expected - only the bastard Okamoto Heiji would have the courage to do this!

The key is that he can't use this as an opportunity to vent his anger.

Having suffered a loss, Ito Masashi indicated to close the car windows tightly, and rushed to Ito Agency without any annoyance, but he became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it.

He wanted to get rid of the two evils, but one of them tied him to it with all its might. The tighter it tied him, the harder it would be for him to get rid of it.

After arriving at Ito Agency, he felt the solemn atmosphere inside the agency.

Obviously, the spies in the secret service must have thought that this was his work.

Ito, who was taking the blame, was sulking and secretly asked someone to investigate who was colluding with Okamoto Heiji - these people could definitely be used, but they would be kicked aside in the future.

It has not yet been figured out who in the agency Okamoto Heiji mobilized, but the consecutive calls seemed to have come together as if they had been agreed upon.

There are garrisons - the garrisons are there to ask Ito for information about the Chuju Army;
There were those from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs—they were asking for intelligence on the Nationalist government;

There was also a call from the Security Command - this call was to inform that many overseas Chinese had recently reported that the activities of resistance elements were frequent, seriously damaging the interests of overseas Chinese, and to ask if Ito's agency could come up with a countermeasure.

What made Ito feel the most fucked up was that there was a call from the front line. A general at the front line angrily asked Ito whether the secret service was useful and whether it could provide accurate intelligence.

These calls came at the same time, and what they talked about can naturally be ignored, because the other party just wanted to send the signal that should be sent at this point in time!

Ito was so annoyed that he wanted to swing his Japanese sword around, but in the end he held back.

Hadn't he expected this outcome from the moment he decided to eradicate the smuggling network?

After controlling his emotions, he called Okamoto Heiji.

"Okamoto-kun, you've alerted the enemy!"

Ito's voice remained calm: "Are you going to give up halfway?"

"Ito-kun, have you ever heard of this?"

"Nani?"

"Boiling a frog in warm water." Jiang Sian said faintly on the other end of the phone: "Don't worry, my loyalty to the empire is evident to all!"

"I won't give up halfway! Someone should come looking for you next, Chief. If you are interested, then make contact with them. You will gain something unexpected."

Jiang Sian hung up the phone after he finished speaking, and then tried hard to hold back his laughter.

There was no anger in Ito's voice. This old fox was really patient!
It’s a pity that this is Zhang Shihao’s work, and you will be sad!

After Ito Zhengshi hung up the phone, he thought about what Jiang Sian had not yet finished saying.

Who will look for me?

But in the blink of an eye, the "guest" arrived.

He was an ordinary businessman, a Japanese businessman, but the one who introduced him was a colonel from the Security Command. After the colonel brought the businessman here, he left with an excuse, leaving only the businessman behind.

The businessman seemed very respectful, as if he was admitting his mistake after being beaten, but what he took out next made Ito gasp.

Even though he was used to the world, he still felt like giving up when faced with gold worth 100,000 yen and a promise of no less than 1 million yen in dividends each year.

Of course, this is dry stock.

The businessman said bluntly that if Ito was willing to join, he would not need to provide funds, only manpower, and the annual income would be more than 3 million yen.

This pie made Ito unable to recover for a long time.

Compared with the tanks that fought on the battlefields of Europe, Japanese tanks were nothing more than tin cans with thin skin and large fillings. But they were tanks after all. One tank cost more than 100,000 yen (tanks in World War II cost more than airplanes). More than 3 million yen means more than 30 tanks!

For a moment, Ito was really moved.

But he held on in the end, perhaps he knew that once he fell, Okamoto Heiji, who was "close" to him, would definitely stab him to death.

Therefore, he could only accept the "toll" on the surface, and learned from the conversation that it was the "Ito Agency" that released the news:

Doesn't Chief Ito exist?
Ito secretly cursed Okamoto Heiji as a bastard, but after the businessman left, he had to call Okamoto Heiji.

He must make this call. If he doesn't, Okamoto Heiji will be backstabbed immediately.

"Okamoto-kun, I saw the guest you mentioned."

"Honestly, I'm tempted."

Jiang Sian deliberately joked: "Then Ito-kun can accept it."

Ito said righteously: "Mr. Okamoto, you said that the interests of the empire are above all else! They can give me gold worth 100,000 when they meet, and they can also give me 3 million a year! How much damage will it cause to the interests of the empire? I, Ito Masashi, will not let the interests of the empire be damaged for money."

"I didn't make a mistake - Ito-kun, you can't keep this money."

"I know. What should I do? Hand it over to the Security Command?"

"No. You can just give it to Okamoto Company, and the money will become part of the Empire's giant ship."

"I'll send someone over - Okamoto-kun, this web must be eradicated!"

"If you accept the money, they will naturally feel relieved. Ito-kun, just wait for my good news!"

After Ito hung up the phone, his face was extremely solemn. He didn't know what his choice would bring, but now, there was no way back.

Ito was in a bad mood all day.

His original plan was to encourage Okamoto Heiji to fight against the smuggling network. Regardless of who won or lost, he would eventually use the power of the base to wipe it out.

But now that he is tied to Okamoto Heiji, even if he defeats this evil smuggling network in the future, how can he deal with Okamoto Heiji?

"Just take it one step at a time."

Ito could only sigh quietly.

……

After two days, Ito felt that he had figured out Okamoto Heiji's influence in the Ito organization. Just when he thought he could be in a good mood, Gu Shenyan came again.

Gu Shenyan's report ruined Ito's good mood.

"Chief, there is something wrong with Wang Tianfeng! There must be something wrong with him!"

Facing Gu Shenyan's shouting about meeting him, Ito's face darkened:

"Deputy Director Gu, what do you want to say?"

“Director, I’m not exaggerating!” Gu Shenyan complained and quickly reported, “I found that Wang Tianfeng has been studying the various files of the Security Bureau and No. 76 that he inherited in the past few days.”

"I don't know what he is investigating specifically, but I noticed that he is particularly attentive to information about the prison!"

"My intuition tells me that there must be a problem. Please pay attention to it, Chief!"

"I understand - Deputy Director Gu, if there is nothing important, I hope you can do your job as well as possible and don't run to me for no reason. Understand?"

Ito hit Gu Shenyan with a gloomy face.

A look of grievance flashed across Gu Shenyan's face. He lowered his head and nodded, then left the office embarrassedly.

Ito held his forehead with his hand as he had a headache. This did not give him any peace of mind.

However, he finally listened to Gu Shenyan's words and thought:
Wang Tianfeng, my patience is limited. If you can't do something, I think... you should give me an explanation!
But at this time, he did not take this matter to heart. He thought that Wang Tianfeng was preparing. After all, he was facing an opponent like Zhang Shihao. It was understandable that Wang Tianfeng, who had suffered a loss once after surrendering, did not dare to act rashly.

Then, his energy was distracted by another matter:

A spy hidden inside the Third War Zone brought news that the Third War Zone intends to replace the secret message books on a large scale.

This information aroused Ito's curiosity.

The Japanese have thought of ways to break through the current secret code system within the Third War Zone, but they only have a clue so far. Moreover, according to the habits of the National Army, it is not yet time to replace the secret codes on a large scale - in order to ensure the confidentiality of communications, the secret code books within the National Army must be replaced at certain times.

But it is not time for replacement yet, and it is very unusual to suddenly have to make a large-scale replacement.

"Could it be that they have come up with a new secret message?"

Ito was very curious, so he ordered his hidden agents to intensify their investigation and find out why the Third War Zone was suddenly preparing to change the secret message. (End of this chapter)
