"Mr. Chen Lei, I really didn't expect that we found a clue in less than half an hour after our on-site investigation, maybe we can make a major discovery by following the fragments of the back shell of this camera." Li Shijun, deputy director of the No. 76 Agent Headquarters, said to Chen Lei standing in front of him while holding a fragment of the back shell of the camera.

Just now, Chen Lei also took this fragment of the back shell of the camera, which was about half the size of a palm, and carefully observed it, but did not see the brand name left on it, and there was no number of the camera's appearance, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that it was still very difficult to trace the head of Sun Chenglin, a member of the third group of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, with this fragment of the back shell of the camera.

Despite this, Chen Lei was not without worries: Everyone knows that whether it is Ding Mocun, who is the director of the secret service headquarters, or Li Shijun, who is the deputy director of the secret service headquarters, the two of them worked as an underground party at the beginning, and then defected to the Kuomintang, holding important positions in the military command and the central command, and following Wang Jingwei, who served as the vice president of the Kuomintang before defecting to the Japanese, the two of them are very capable.

Don't look at it, now they have only found this fragment of the back shell of the camera that is only half the size of a palm, and if the two of them really follow this clue, maybe they will really make some fame.

Thinking of this, Chen Lei made a request: "Deputy Director Li, according to the instructions of the previous field commander, your special agent headquarters to assist me in handling the case, you must obey my command and dispatch. In my opinion, you agents at headquarters, whatever information you get or what clues you collect, you should hand them over to me. ”

As soon as Chen Lei's words fell, Li Shijun, who was originally happy, suddenly his face became gloomy, at this time, in his opinion, after Chen Lei's people from their agent headquarters found this piece of camera fragment, his hand was not hot, Chen Lei made such an unreasonable request, and his mood was naturally very unhappy.

But the problem is that what Chen Lei said is true, Taro Tano, the commander of the Japanese Navy in Shanghai, did order that the people in the secret service headquarters should unconditionally obey Chen Lei's command and dispatch, and Chen Lei is now asking for this piece of camera fragment to be handed over to him, of course, there is nothing wrong with it.

To say, this ginger is still old and spicy, and Li Shijun, who is unwilling, thought about it for a while, and came up with a countermeasure, he immediately asked Chen Lei: "Mr. Chen Lei, you can take this piece of camera back shell fragment in my hand, of course there is no problem." However, I have a reluctant request, and before you take it, we at Secret Service Headquarters should take a few pictures of this piece of the back shell of the camera. ”

Originally, Chen Lei thought that he only needed to take away the fragment of the back shell of the camera from Li Shijun's hand, and then find a casual excuse two days later, saying that the fragment of the camera was lost, and this clue would be cut off, and he could no longer trace it.

At this time, after listening to what Li Shijun said, Chen Lei realized that his idea was a little simple, if Li Shijun took a picture of this piece of the back shell of the camera, it would not make much sense for him to take the piece of the back shell of the camera again.

Chen Lei had no reason to refuse Li Shijun's request, so he had no choice but to agree: "Okay, Deputy Director Li, you can take a picture of this piece of camera back shell fragments, then you can do it as soon as possible." ”

said that it was too late, Li Shijun was afraid that Chen Lei would regret it later, so he hurriedly called a member of the intelligence department of a secret service headquarters led by him to him, took out the camera and pointed it at the fragment of the back shell of the camera, "Click...... Click...... clicked ......" to shoot throughout, and there were more than a dozen photos at different angles.

After taking the photo, Li Shijun handed over the fragment of the back shell of the camera to Chen Lei, although he was a little reluctant, he could only endure the pain of love.

Next, they surveyed a cherry blossom grove in the northeast corner of the yard of the Japanese Navy Club and the location of the munitions warehouse in the northwest corner of the Japanese Navy Headquarters, from morning to evening.

Except for noon, there were two hours of eating and resting, and in addition, Chen Lei and Li Shijun, who led the secret service headquarters to send four people, have been conducting on-the-spot investigations at the scene of the explosion, and have been working for as many as eight hours.

Fortunately for Chen Lei, apart from finding a half-palm-sized fragment of the back shell of the camera at the beginning, he didn't find any other valuable clues.

When night fell, at about six o'clock in the evening, Ding Mocun, the director of the secret service headquarters, and Iwai Ichiro, the director of the Special Investigation Institute (Iwai Mansion), rushed to the scene of the explosion together as if they had made an appointment in advance.

At this time, Chen Lei and Li Shijun were preparing to call it a day with the personnel certificates of the four agent headquarters.

I have to say that Ding Mocun and Iwai Ichiro are not as good as they came early.

According to Iwai Ichiro's proposal, he will be the host, and tonight in a private room on the third floor of the Japanese Navy Club, he will invite them to eat a meal of Japanese food, so as to reward Chen Lei and others for a busy day, and Ding Mocun will accompany them to participate.

In the private room on the third floor of the Japanese Navy Club, after all of them had drunk two taels of sake and five flavors of food, Iwai Ichiro got down to business and asked Chen Lei, who was sitting opposite him, in a serious and serious manner: "Chen Leijun, today, you, Deputy Director Li of the Secret Service Headquarters, and four senior officers from the Secret Service Headquarters, have you made any major discoveries after investigating the explosion scene for a full day?" ”

Chen Lei, who was drunk with two taels of sake, was not drunk, and he replied without thinking: "Iwai-kun, we did not make any major discoveries at the scene of the explosion......

Without waiting for Chen Lei to finish speaking, Li Shijun, who was sitting at another table next to him, was a little relieved, and immediately interrupted Chen Lei's words, and retorted with a little excitement: "Mr. Chen Lei thinks that what he said is wrong, just this morning, when he conducted an on-the-spot investigation of the explosion site, and in less than half an hour, a member of the Intelligence Department of our secret service headquarters made a major discovery. ”

Li Shijun, who was a little drunk, deliberately paused twice when he said this, glanced at the people sitting in the private room, and suddenly changed his words, Iwai Ichiro sold the guanzi, and continued: "Iwai-kun, guess what, what do I mean by this major discovery?" You would never have imagined. ”

Hearing Li Shijun say this, Iwai Ichiro shifted his gaze from Chen Lei to Li Shijun, and after thinking about it for more than ten seconds, he guessed noncommittally: "Li Sang, I guess, you shouldn't have found the murder weapon that caused the explosion, right?" As for what it is, I can't really guess. ”

When Iwai Ichiro finished guessing, without waiting for Li Shijun to announce the answer, Chen Lei was also a little breathless, he took out something wrapped in a hand towel from his jacket pocket, and slapped it on the table in front of Iwai Ichiro with a "snap".
