Spy Shadow

Chapter 240 Determining Identity

After learning that the case was investigated by the Chief himself, Liu Wannian never left the surveillance point.

He had indeed found the right person. Kono Kobayashi and Jiang Tengkong were in the Yuanfeng Hotel at this time. After arriving in Nanjing, Kono Kobayashi immediately asked his men to inquire about Chu Lingyun's whereabouts.

In addition, he also asked people to explore the route out of the city.

Without enough intelligence support, Kono Kobayashi's plan was to attack by force, that is, to find Chu Lingyun and then forcibly kill him.

A strong attack does not require much preparation, and it is easy to kill the assassination target with one blow, but the disadvantage is also obvious. Once they kill someone, they will all be exposed, and leaving the city will be a big trouble.

Kono Kobayashi didn't want to bury himself here just to kill Chu Lingyun.

Jiang Tengkong, on the other hand, took the initiative to investigate the information but was rejected by Kono Kobayashi.

Kono Kobayashi had no prejudice against Jiang Tengkong, but Jiang Tengkong did not gain his complete trust. Whether it was searching for Chu Lingyun's whereabouts or finding the best escape route, Kono Kobayashi only let his own people do it.

"Team leader, the two people who went out this morning are wandering around the city gate. They have gone to several city gates."

Liu Wannian was at the surveillance point, and his team members reported the surveillance results to him at all times.

City gate?

Liu Wannian immediately looked at the map. The suspect went to the city gate, but did not leave the city. He just walked around there. They were checking the location to exit the city.

This result made Liu Wannian even more excited. It was almost certain that the group in front of him was the person they were looking for.

They are not afraid of the large number of spies, but they are afraid of how deep they hide. This is their home field. Once these rats show up, they will not be able to escape.

"Section Chief, you are here."

Liu Wannian was at the surveillance point. When he received the news that New Year greetings were coming, he immediately went to the door and waited.

New Year greetings come every day, which further proves the importance of this case.

"Are there any new photos?"

After the arrival of He Nian, he immediately asked that he should contact Rose as soon as possible to discuss how to act together so that this group of spies could be wiped out in one fell swoop.

According to Liu Wannian's investigation, there are approximately 16 people in this group of Japanese spies.

There are so many Japanese spies who are masters of action. They must be caught before they take action, otherwise it is likely to cause chaos.

"Yes, I'll get it for you."

Liu Wannian reported the latest investigation results while taking the photos.

"This is because I want to run away immediately after taking action. Now that I'm here, don't even think about running away."

After listening to the report, He Nian threw the piece away and snorted coldly.

Unfortunately, Jiang Tengkong is still not in the newly taken photos. It seems that Jiang Tengkong's days in the Special High School were indeed as he said, not that good. He did not show up for two consecutive days, which is enough to prove that his movements were restricted.

"Section Chief, you are right, they can't escape."

Liu Wannian chuckled and said, not only did they capture all of the sixteen Japanese spies alive, but half of them were captured alive. This was an unprecedented victory for their Military Intelligence Department.

"Do you have a room number for each of them?"

He Nian asked suddenly. Liu Wannian was startled and nodded immediately: "Yes, we have found out. They are all on the second floor of the hotel, and they are in connecting rooms."

These people lived together, and He Nian frowned again.

The entire second floor was full of their people. It was almost impossible for He Nian to sneak in and connect with Rose. Once discovered by the people inside, both he and Rose would be finished.

However, Rose's existence was top secret, and he couldn't say anything to his subordinates, not even asking them to help with ideas.

When He Nian came to the surveillance point, Jiang Tengkong was lying on the bed.

Although it was a separate room, Jiang Tengkong was surrounded by Kono Kobayashi's subordinates. Even if he went out, the people next to him could hear him if he opened the door.

Kono Kobayashi was obviously on guard against Jiang Tengkong in this operation. He did not let Jiang Tengkong get involved, whether it was to inquire about Chu Lingyun or find a route out of the city.

Although Jiang Tengkong participated in the operation, his current situation was almost like house arrest, which made him a little worried.

He is not worried that Kono Kobayashi will doubt him, this is just the instinctive self-protection of the operators. If he leads the team and there is someone he is not familiar with, his freedom will also be restricted.

Moreover, the Military Intelligence Office had received the news in advance, and the protection of Chu Lingyun must have been even tighter. Kono Kobayashi's operation this time was destined to fail.

What he fears is that the Military Intelligence Service has discovered them, and in the event of a firefight, his safety will not be guaranteed.

He was surrounded by Kono Kobayashi's henchmen. If there was a fight, they would only protect Kono Kobayashi, and no one would come to protect him.

"Kono-kun, have you found out about Chu Lingyun?"

Jiang Tengkong couldn't sit still and took the initiative to go to Kono Kobayashi's room to ask. It was normal for him to ask these questions. After all, he was also a member of the operation.

Except for Kobayashi Kobayashi, he has the highest level here.

"Not yet. Jiang Tengjun, you came just in time. You have a certain understanding of Chu Lingyun. Is there any way to lure him out?"

Kono Kobayashi shook his head and said that his people had gone to investigate several times. Although they had photos of Chu Lingyun, they did not dare to ask questions at will and could only passively watch.

In the past two days, they had seen many vehicles driving out of the Military Intelligence Office, but the curtains of each vehicle were drawn, and they had no idea whether Chu Lingyun was inside.

The current search method is not efficient at all, and Kono Kobayashi is a little anxious.

Who knows when Chu Lingyun will show up, or even Chu Lingyun may not show up at all.

"have."

Jiang Tengkong nodded and Kono Kobayashi was overjoyed. He immediately sat upright and asked softly: "Jiang Tengjun, please speak?"

"Chu Lingyun will definitely be interested in me, and we fought against each other in Wuhan. If I go out as bait, I will definitely be able to attract him."

Jiang Tengkong said slowly that he was trapped in the hotel and could not get out. Not only was he unable to convey information to the Chinese, he was also in danger at all times.

If you go out, you may break the situation.

And once he shows up, the Chinese will definitely know that this is an illusion and make targeted arrangements.

"Jiang Tengjun, I didn't expect that you are not afraid of danger and are willing to use yourself as bait."

Kobayashi was in awe, the bait was very dangerous, and this was Chinese territory, but it had to be said that Jiang Tengkong's method was indeed feasible.

If you can't find Chu Lingyun, then you will attract him out.

Jiang Tengkong and Chu Lingyun are old rivals. Once Chu Lingyun knows that he is in Nanjing, he will definitely try his best to find him.

"Serve the Empire, even to the death."

Jiang Tengkong said righteously, only he knew that he would be the safest one if the Chinese discovered him.

"Jiang Tengjun, let's plan carefully, not only to lure Chu Lingyun out, but also to ensure your safety."

Kono Kobayashi said quickly that he didn't know that Jiang Tengkong had rebelled, and he was still thinking about Jiang Tengkong at this moment.

Not long after, a plan to lure the snake out of its hole was worked out during the discussion between the two.

Jiang Tengkong went outside first and showed up deliberately to let the people in the Military Intelligence Department know that he had arrived in Nanjing.

This is not the point. The key is how to draw out Chu Lingyun. If others are drawn out, it will not be of any help to their mission.

Chu Lingyun is the leader of the fourth operation team of the Military Intelligence Division. It is not easy to find Chu Lingyun, but it is not difficult to find his subordinates.

Jiang Tengkong once investigated Chu Lingyun. Although Nao Iijima of the intelligence team did not find much useful information, he investigated a lot of Chu Lingyun's subordinates.

Soon, they locked their target, Zhao San.

Zhao San is the famous name of Loach. He followed Chu Lingyun when he was stationed in Wuhan. Jiang Tengkong had inquired about it and knew something about Loach. It was not easy to find Chu Lingyun, but it was not difficult to find Loach.

Loach is good at sociability and knows many people from all walks of life.

Kono Kobayashi took Jiang Tengkong and finally walked out of the hotel door.

"Section chief, team leader, someone is coming out."

Liu Wannian's people had been watching, and when they saw two unfamiliar faces, they immediately shouted, He Nian came to the window, and he finally saw Jiang Tengkong.

And Jiang Tengkong appeared, confirming that the person they were looking for was in the hotel.

"Follow them."

He Nian ordered, and he followed him out, hanging far behind. Jiang Tengkong just came out. Once he came out, he would have a chance to catch up with him.

Kobayashi Kobayashi is not a pure fool. He is actually very smart and knows how to bribe local gangsters to look for Loach. It doesn't take long for them to find someone who knows Loach.

After finding the person, Kono Kobayashi did not make any move and took Jiang Tengkong back to the hotel.

Kobayashi Kobayashi was very careful. He would not act rashly before making an absolutely safe plan. In addition, he did not give Jiang Tengkong a chance to go out alone, which made Jiang Tengkong's little idea of ​​reporting to the Chinese come to naught again.

For two consecutive days, there was no movement from Kono Kobayashi. He Nian still couldn't contact Jiang Tengkong, and he didn't dare to act rashly.

In the past two days, every day after get off work, Chu Lingyun would go near No. 35 Hehua Lane and stare at the people inside.

Every time he goes out, he will disguise himself as the old man before. Even if they meet Jiang Tengkong and Kono Kobayashi head-on, they will not think that this old man is their target this time.

At around seven o'clock, a person walked over from a distance.

This man walked slowly. He looked around when he passed No. 35, and then went to knock on the door.

The servant quickly opened the door and took him inside.

In the dark, Chu Lingyun watched all this silently.

"Secretary Liang, Lao Wu wants to do something, but he doesn't do anything. It's not good for his lurking, and it can easily attract others' attention."

The person who came was Director Yang. In the study, Director Yang spoke quickly to Secretary Liang.

Lao Wu's black market work was handed over to Xiao Su, and Lao Zheng left Nanjing again. Now he has no mission at all and can only stay at home every day.

Doing nothing is okay for a while, but over time it will arouse suspicion. After all, in this era, if you live alone and do nothing, how can you get a living income?

Once noticed by intelligence agencies, it is easier to be exposed.

"You're right, what do you think, Old Wu?" Secretary Liang nodded, this is indeed a question.

"Old Wu knows how to repair cars. He wants to set up a car repair stall at the entrance of the alley. This way he can be close to home, not miss out on information, and earn some living expenses."

Director Yang said softly that Lao Wu could indeed repair cars and his skills were pretty good.

He mainly repairs carts, trolleys and bicycles, but not cars. In this era, it is not ordinary people who can repair cars.

After thinking for a while, Secretary Liang nodded and said, "Okay, he is repairing the car in front of his house. If Miss Qiu goes over again, she will definitely be able to see him."

"You agreed." Director Yang smiled.

"I agree, why not? I will agree to anything that is beneficial to our work." Secretary Liang said with a smile.

"Okay, I will tell Lao Wu the news soon and let him be ready to set up a stall at any time."

Director Yang didn't come here for long this time. He left in a hurry after only ten minutes. After he came out, he walked in the opposite direction from where he came. Chu Lingyun immediately followed him.

Director Yang was very vigilant. He called a rickshaw, but did not get off near Lao Wu's house.

I backed up a few times before arriving at Lao Wu's side.

This time, he did not go directly to Lao Wu's home, but walked around in circles. After making sure that no one was following him, he came to Lao Wu's door and knocked gently.

In the darkness, Chu Lingyun saw Old Wu open the door and left directly without continuing to follow him.

In fact, Chu Lingyun had lost track of him, but noticed that the direction he came was towards the old Wu family, so he thought of waiting and trying his luck.

As luck would have it, this man from Dr. Liang's house really ended up here with Lao Wu.

The identities of Dr. Liang, his servant, and the man who appeared were confirmed. Just as he had guessed, they were all Red Party members.

It's a pity that I was a little careless. Fortunately, it was my own informant who discovered the problem this time. If someone from the Party Affairs Investigation Department found out, they would face great danger.

"Director Yang, has the organization agreed?" Old Wu asked anxiously as soon as he entered the room.

"I agreed, you can make preparations tomorrow and set up your car repair stall." Director Yang smiled and nodded.

"Very good."

A smile finally appeared on Lao Wu's face. He was holding back at home these days and couldn't do anything. He was actually very anxious.

In addition to considering your own safety, setting up a stall at the entrance of an alley also has a small purpose.

If he had been outside and Miss Qiu came again, he would be able to see her immediately.

Lao Wu has always wanted to really get in touch with Miss Qiu and ask him if he is his comrade and if he has any concerns. That was why he ran away last time.

Quietly returning to his residence, Chu Lingyun washed away his disguise.

The portrait on the table was burned by Chu Lingyun to confirm their identity. This portrait would no longer be used. If others found this portrait in his place, it would be detrimental to them.

The next night, Jiang Tengkong went out again.

He had been staring at the New Year greetings for several days and immediately followed him. After several days of investigation and arrangement, Kono Kobayashi finally set up an action plan.

Jiang Tengkong acted as bait to attract Chu Lingyun to show up.

They found a good outsider. This outsider would go to a tavern to drink tonight, and he and Jiang Tengkong deliberately showed up in the tavern.

During this period, they would pretend to be drunk, speak Japanese, and deliberately reveal their identities for the outsider to hear.

At the same time, they rented a private house in the east of the city near the city gate.

Jiang Tengkong would be placed there by him to attract Chu Lingyun to take the bait.

He led people to monitor the outside. As long as Chu Lingyun appeared, he would first let two snipers shoot and assassinate him. If the snipers could directly kill the target, they would immediately rush out of the city gate and escape outside the city.

If the sniper did not kill the target, he would personally lead the attack and everyone would evacuate immediately after killing Chu Lingyun.

In order to ensure that he could escape, Kobayashi deliberately activated an action team lurking here and asked them to provide support outside the city.

First update, something happened during the day today, so the update is a little late, friends, please forgive me.
