Chapter Twenty-Four: The Two Tigers Fight
"It was the Third Department of the General Staff Department that intercepted the phone call, and now the military sub-division has arranged personnel to intercept it. It's unlikely, though. The old man continued.
"Okay. You continue to follow up over there first, and report any situation in time. Mr. Lin put down the phone.
"Let's go to the hotel." The group did not drive and went straight to the hotel. The hotel is not very far from the hotel, just across the road.
The people in the hotel saw such a large group of people coming violently, and they couldn't figure out the situation at all, so they dodged one after another.
"Call the manager of the hotel and go directly to the style garden." Mr. Lin commanded, and continued to move forward without looking back. Someone has been commanded to call someone.
"This is the Garden of Customs. This courtyard is rented for many years by a unit called Wako Travel Agency. I don't usually see any large number of customers. There were only three or five people at a time, and we didn't register them as coming. Sometimes when asked, they said that they would not stay and that they would come to visit. After a long time, we will not bother to ask. The manager cautiously introduced.
"Do you know what's going on here?" Mr. Lin asked a middle-aged man in his group.
"We have plainclothes in the Changchun Hotel, but there are almost no people in this courtyard, and nothing has happened. Our people didn't pay attention. The middle-aged man replied timidly.
"Why didn't you take such an important situation seriously? Everyone's nest is under your nose! Mr. Lin said angrily, almost roaring.
"It's the negligence of the lowly work. Please also punish you. "Middle-aged people don't dare to come out. The spies of the neighboring countries have been in his territory for five or six years, and have not found any clues, which is indeed careless.
Walking around the rooms one by one, several NSA staff members behind him also searched carefully and found nothing. I didn't see any documents or anything like that. Even the household garbage was cleaned up. The room was cleaned and cleaned. It seems that the people who live here are indeed cautious.
When Mr. Lin saw this, he couldn't help but admire, and his anger at the negligence of his subordinates was reduced. This is a group of professional spies. But why did they all withdraw? Could it be that their mission is accomplished?
Mr. Lin thought about it carefully, and they took Zhang Nier away. Could it be that Zhang Nier is their mission this time? And what's going on with those caves? Aren't they looking for some kind of treasure? If Fujian is their destination, why is the headquarters in Changchun, or is this just one of their strongholds?
With the discovery of the Changchun Hotel Style Garden, more and more questions have emerged. I can't find where the thread is.
"You go check this Wako Travel Agency. Find out who their legal person is, whether they have any specific business, whether it is a real company or a virtual existence, and check whether they have accounts with who or what group. If it is a company set up for their activities, there must be something wrong with its source of funding. "Mr. Lin is also a blind man and a blind horse, crossing the river by feeling the stones.
"Any news from the army?" Mr. Lin asked casually.
"Not yet." Someone answered.
"Go check all the external call records of this style garden for half a year." Another directive.
"Yes." The people brought by Mr. Lin have already been sent out. One of the remaining people, who looked at the leader and took the order, left. Of course, he doesn't need to do such a thing himself. He went and made a phone call and came back.
"For the rest, we'll just have to wait for news. Mr. Dong, there is nothing to do for the time being. You take Jiu'er to rest first. This day is enough for you to mess up. Only then did Mr. Lin free up his hands to care about Dong Zhihua's apprentice.
Not to mention that Zhang Jiujiu is exhausted, even Dong Zhihua is a little unbearable. After all, where is the old age? Zhang Jiujiu found a sofa and fell asleep after coming here.
Dong Zhihua carried Zhang Jiujiu into the room and put him on the bed. He also lay down in his clothes. He didn't take off his clothes, and who knows what he will find in the middle of the night and call him again.
Mr. Lin made some tea and returned to silence. It's their job. Waiting is a must for them, no matter when and where.
Soon, it was said that it was very soon, and it was two hours after Zhang Jiujiu and they returned to their room, and the person who found the news from the army came to call: "The people who tried to cross the border have been arrested, but they should not be the people we are looking for." These people are just the cooks who are in charge of cleaning and cooking in the Love Garden. Interrogation is ongoing. ”
"What? Not them? And they mysteriously disappeared? Mr. Lin asked incredulously.
"These people are indeed not the people we are looking for, they are all about forty years old, and they are all Chinese. He was hired to do chores. The details have not yet been asked. I'll call you to report them when I know who they are, so that you can do something about it. The old man explained.
For the sake of themselves, the people from the National Security Bureau and the people in the General Staff Department have been brushed, and the Japanese have come to repair the plank road in the open and the dark. Where will they go?
Means of transportation, modern people cannot be separated from means of transportation. Cars, ships, planes, trains, how did they leave? It can't be a rocket run, right? Thinking of this, Mr. Lin secretly laughed, when did he still have such a childlike idea.
After another hour or so, the news came back from all walks of life that had been dispatched. But all the news disappointed Mr. Lin.
The army didn't ask for any useful information. The hired people had no contact with anything, they were paid a lot of money every month, and every once in a while they would serve some strangers, who they couldn't even see.
People are gone, and they are only allowed to clean. Even if they went to bring them food, they were only allowed to leave it outside the room, and no one would take it away until they were gone. The Japanese were very careful, even in their own bases.
Wako Travel is registered in a small island country in the center of the Pacific Ocean, and the legal person is a Chinese name. In such a country, isn't it just a matter of name?
The company's capital transactions are very simple, there are almost no large amounts of money exchanges, and the estimated activity funds and the like do not go through the company's accounts. The company has a few sporadic businesses, from anywhere to anywhere, and there is no pattern at all.
The call records of the customs garden to the outside world have also been called up, and they are all local phones, and there are few out of the province. Following the phone number above, it was found that most of them were small vendors who bought groceries, vegetables and fruits.
The trails of several roads were broken. What to do, what to do? Mr. Lin didn't care about his image in the minds of his subordinates, scratching his scalp and going back and forth in the hall. Holding a cigarette in his hand, the ashes were scattered all over the ground. The manager who watched it was shy, but there was a carpet on the floor, and it was not easy to clean it.
The people under him were even more out of ideas. How did people disappear out of thin air? No further clues could be found in either direction. If Zhang Jiujiu hadn't accidentally found the note today, they wouldn't even be able to find it here.
They should have somewhere else to stop besides here. But how to check it? There should be many people who have either left or transferred. There is no doubt that the Garden of Styles is one of their strongholds. And what's going on with the other strongholds? Could it be something like this?
"How many hotels in the city have independent courtyards like Changchun Hotel? Check to see if there are any others who have been rented for so long. "Mr. Lin is like a fly without a head, and he can only bump into it. He only hoped that he would find some useful information by mistake.
"Changchun City is not small to say big, but it is not small, and there are at least dozens of hotels of this size. The business model of each family is similar, and there are quite a few yards like this. I'll ask someone to go check them one by one. Although the middle-aged man thought it was a stupid method, he couldn't think of anything better.
"You divided into four teams and started the investigation from the outside of the city center, and carried out a radial search in the four directions of east, west, south and north. If there is any such thing as I said, report it immediately. If you encounter two middle-aged men with a twenty-seven-eight-year-old woman and an eight-nine-year-old girl, monitor them directly and wait for us to come and identify. After the middle-aged man gave the order, there was a specific order.
They're busy here. The army was not idle. They were aware of these Japanese before, but they never figured out each other's intentions. The Japanese did not pass on information to the outside world, nor did they engage in any sabotage activities, which made people scratch their heads.
When the military staff saw that the people of the National Security Bureau were working so hard to investigate those Japanese, they felt strange in their hearts. So they also stepped up their efforts to get involved.
Okay, China's two major intelligence agencies work together to encircle and suppress a case, can this move be smaller?
Soon, bigwigs from both sides called to inquire. Mr. Lin is okay here, he knows the ins and outs of the matter, and he has a preliminary grasp of Zhang Nier's mysterious identity, so he made a report smoothly. got the order of "strict investigation as soon as possible, be sure to find out the other party's intentions".
And the people in the staff are different. When the phone called, although they were very busy, they didn't know why. The stinking scolding of the head and face was scolded. However, when he learned that the national security side had invested a lot of money, the tone of the boss changed: "We must strictly guard against it, and we can't let these spies escape." Arrest people first, then understand the situation! ”
As the saying goes, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and the two major intelligence departments of the National Security General Staff have always been swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks. But as long as he can intervene in the other party's case, no one is willing to let it go. What's more, it is the Japanese involved, and the other party also has the military, so it is not certain who is responsible for this case.
