Chapter 31: A Visit

After coming to Ding Mocun's office, Chen Lei sat on the living room couch in front of the desk, while Ding Mocun sat on a separate sofa next to him, and the two of them sat down and had a conversation.

Ding Mocun yawned at first, and then asked, "Mr. Chen Lei, you came to the secret service headquarters early this morning, I don't know what Mr. Chen Lei is doing?" I also hope that Mr. Chen Lei will tell someone Ding. If there is a need for the help of my secret service headquarters, I will do everything in my power to help. ”

A few minutes ago, Chen Lei took a rickshaw to the gate of the courtyard of the secret service headquarters at No. 76 Jisfeier Road, and he first took out his ID card from the guards guarding the gate, and indicated that he wanted to see Ding Mocun, the director of the secret service headquarters, hoping to report it.

The guards guarding the gate of the courtyard of the secret service headquarters saw that the ID that Chen Lei showed him was not a pass for their secret service headquarters, but that it was written that Chen Lei was a Chinese assistant to the Japanese deputy consul general in Shanghai.

In Shanghai during the Anti-Japanese War, whenever they did things for the Japanese, these Wang pseudo-traitors would look up to them, not to mention, Chen Lei still worked as an assistant to the Japanese in Shanghai Tang, so he was naturally polite and respectful to Chen Lei.

After reading Chen Lei's documents, the guards did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly called the phone to the hall on the first floor of the Gao Yang Building of the secret service headquarters, where one of the courtesans answered.

After hanging up the phone, she hurriedly went to the office and bedroom of Ding Mocun on the east side of the second floor of the Gao Yang Building, and woke up Ding Mocun, who was still asleep, by knocking on the door.

After waking up, Ding Mocun opened the bedroom door in his pajamas, and after inquiring about the courtesans standing outside the door, he learned that Chen Lei was asking to see him outside the door.

The sleepy-eyed Ding Mocun didn't dare to slack off, and after playing courtesans, he didn't have time to wash, so he washed his face casually twice, changed into formal clothes, and hurriedly went downstairs and went straight to the gate to welcome Chen Lei's arrival.

From the time he saw Ding Mo Village outside the gate, until he sat in Ding Mo Village's office, Chen Lei had not expressed his intentions, and at this time, he felt that there was no need to beat around the bush in the face of Ding Mo Village's inquiry.

So, Chen Lei replied straight to the point: "Director Ding, I came here just for the bombing case. Yesterday, didn't Deputy Director Li take a few photos of the fragments of the back shell of the camera, let me see how your secret service headquarters is tracking down according to this clue.

"The reason why I came here so early was because the Japanese were urging me very hard. You and I are both doing things for the Japanese, and the bombing is currently the top priority for the Japanese in Shanghai, and none of us can afford to delay. I think it is necessary for me to come to the secret service headquarters in person and connect with Director Ding. I don't know if someone Chen is coming, if it is presumptuous or abrupt, I hope that Director Ding Haihan. ”

In fact, as early as Ding Mocun got up and rushed to the gate of the courtyard of the secret service headquarters to meet Chen Lei, he had already guessed that Chen Lei would take you over at about seven in the morning and rush over for half an hour, it must have been for the explosion, and in addition, he could no longer think of any other reason for Chen Lei to visit the secret service headquarters.

Although Ding Mocun nominally serves as the number one leader in the secret service headquarters, Li Shijun, who serves as the second in command, has the leading power in the business, and he is a bit unworthy of the name.

This is also why, Ding Mocun hopes to take advantage of this opportunity, with the help of Chen Lei and the Japanese, to suppress Li Shijun's arrogance, and it is best to let Li Shijun make a big mistake, and at that time, Ding Mocun can have actual control of the secret service headquarters.

Therefore, Ding Mocun did not intervene too deeply in the matter of the secret service headquarters assisting Chen Lei and the Special Investigation Institute (Iwai Mansion), and almost delegated authority to Li Shijun to do it, and he rarely asked about it.

As for Chen Lei's coming to ask about the progress of the investigation of the fragment of the back shell of the camera, Ding Mocun naturally didn't know about it, because Li Shijun was responsible for this matter.

After listening to Chen Lei's intentions, Ding Mocun immediately secretly rejoiced in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "Mr. Chen Lei, I can't hide it, about the fragment of the back shell of the camera being taken into a photo by Deputy Director Li, and the follow-up investigation, so far, Deputy Director Li has not reported to me, and I don't know the progress of the investigation at present.

"After all, it's only been one night, and according to the custom, at about nine o'clock in the morning, at the special project meeting held by our secret service headquarters, Deputy Director Li will report to me on the progress of the investigation."

After the explanation, Ding Mocun glanced down at the brand-name watch on his left wrist, and saw that it was now 7:50 in the morning, and there were still ten minutes to 8 o'clock, he felt that at this point in time, Li Shijun should have gotten up.

Thinking about this, Ding Mocun immediately got up, made a "please" gesture, and said very politely: "At this point in time, Deputy Director Li must have gotten up." Since Mr. Chen Lei is so eager for the progress of the investigation, then someone Ding will take you to Deputy Director Li's office, and Mr. Chen Lei will ask Deputy Director Li in person. ”

Li Shijun's bedroom is opposite Ding Mocun's room, and a large room between the two bedrooms in his Amen is Li Shijun's office.

Although in Li Shijun's office, why did Ding Mocun put a desk, but he never went to work, this is the first time to go to work, in the eyes of the people in the secret service headquarters, this is also very rare.

Since Li Shijun's bedroom and office were rooms next to each other only by a wall, Ding Mocun did not take Chen Lei to Li Shijun's bedroom, but went to the office next to it.

Ding Mo Village, who was standing outside the door, first knocked on the office door twice and asked, "Deputy Director Li, are you inside?" I am Ding Mo Village, and Mr. Chen Lei, a friend of Iwai Ichiro-kun, wants to see you. ”

didn't hear the answer inside, and after about two seconds, Chen Lei, who was standing almost side by side with Ding Mocun, heard the increasingly clear footsteps in the office, and learned that Li Shijun should have come to open the door for the two of them.

Sure enough, when Ding Mocun knocked on them for about five minutes, they heard a "squeak", and Li Shijun opened the office door from the inside, made a "please" gesture, and invited Ding Mocun and Chen Lei into the office to sit down.

"Mr. Chen Lei, he came to our agent headquarters before eight o'clock in the morning, presumably for the purpose of investigating the progress of the fragment of the back shell of the camera, right?" After Chen Lei and Ding Mocun sat down, Li Shijun immediately said the speculation in his heart without any concealment and asked Chen Lei.

In the face of Li Shijun's speculation and inquiry, Chen Lei did not dare to show weakness, and while answering, he also asked rhetorically: "Deputy Director Li, you guessed right, I just came to visit for this matter." However, seeing Deputy Director Li's red face full of pride, I must have spent one night finding some valuable clues based on the multiple photos taken on the fragments of the back shell of the camera, which I guessed, right? ”
