Chapter 0312: Twists and Turns Again
Liu Xuan took the order and left, and it took more than ten minutes to dial the phone numbers one after another according to the list made in advance, and Gao Gonghuang's Shanghai Morning News office was also among them. As for Zhang Renzuo's Wenzhou Daily and Chen Zui's Hunan Xiangguang News Agency, they are not on Liu Xuan's list because their influence is very small.
When Lin Jiangbei first reviewed Liu Xuan's list of news agencies and newspapers, he noticed that Gao Gonghuang's Shanghai Morning Post office was included, so he did not add or change Liu Xuan's list. Lin Jiangbei believed that when the Shanghai Morning Post received a call from Liu Xuan to send a reporter to the post box on Tiantong'an Road in Zhabei to pick up the statement letter, Gao Gonghuang would certainly not miss this opportunity and would definitely ask to go with him as a photojournalist. At that time, he could just learn about the scene when the mailbox on Tiantongan Road was opened through Gao Gonghuang's feedback.
After Liu Xuan had finished informing all the newspapers and news agencies listed on the list, Lin Jiangbei reached out and grabbed the phone again, dialed the special line of the office of the chief of the police department in the provincial capital, and reported what he had done today to Zhou Fengshan as it was.
Zhou Fengshan didn't expect that Lin Jiangbei would do such a big thing quietly behind his back, and he couldn't help but get angry for a while, and reprimanded Lin Jiangbei fiercely.
Of course, he reprimanded Lin Jiangbei mainly because he was worried about Lin Jiangbei's safety, in case Lin Jiangbei made any mistakes in this bombing case, not only did the intelligence department lose one of the best agents, but the Zhejiang police department was also likely to lose the biggest weapon to compete with the Huangpu department in the intelligence department.
"Although it is said that the general will not be subject to the orders of the foreign monarch, the operational discipline of the Intelligence Service also gives you the right to decide on ad hoc action. But that is specifically when the crisis is imminent, and if urgent action is not taken, there will be a great threat to the interests of the party-state or to the lives of comrades. Actions like the one you took this morning are not at all in the category of urgent action that must be taken! You just need to follow my request, hide in the apartment of La Fei Fang, and wait patiently for me to transfer Fushanjing back to Hangzhou, there is no need to take such a big risk to take such an action! Zhou Fengshan said at the end, his voice was full of emotion, "Lin Jiangbei, if you still think that you are a student taught by Zhou Fengshan and the deputy stationmaster of Hangcheng Station, the next time you want to plan such a big action, you must communicate with me in advance." ”
"Yes, yes, principal, it's the students who are wrong!" Lin Jiangbei's forehead was sweating when he was scolded by Zhou Fengshan.
He knew that Zhou Fengshan would be angry, which was why he had to wait for the matter here to come to a complete end and have a basically definite result before reporting to Zhou Fengshan.
But he didn't expect that Zhou Fengshan would be so angry, and at this time, he could only admit his mistake to Zhou Fengshan in a hurry, "Students must seriously reflect on their behavior, and if they take any major actions next time, they must communicate with the principal in advance!" ”
"You just know it's wrong!" Zhou Fengshan saw that Lin Jiangbei's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite sincere, so he snorted lightly and slowed down his tone, "Also, Jiangbei, you just said that Xiaochuan Xiangli took the passenger ferry of the Hoopoe Chang Steamship Company at half past eight in the morning and went to Hangzhou?" ”
"Yes!" Lin Jiangbei saw that Zhou Fengshan's tone slowed down, and he knew that he had finally passed this level, and at the same time secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he said: "A surveillance officer from the Hongkou Hidden Group in the Shanghai Region also followed Ogawa Xiangli to board the same passenger ship. It is expected to arrive in Hangzhou late this night. You should be prepared to take any unfavorable action against the members of the Korean Provisional Government by using the power of the Hocpoe Chang Steamship Company in Zhejiang Province. ”
"In addition to this, it is also necessary to guard against the Japanese spies of the Toyama Trading House who are angry and take revenge on Kim Shi's stand-in and the Korean students of the Korean cadre school in Nanjing."
"Okay, I know the situation, I'll make arrangements accordingly in a minute!" Zhou Fengshan said, "You must be honest over there in the past few days and wait for this incident to calm down." If you want to take any major action against the Japanese side, you will definitely report to me in advance! ”
Lin Jiangbei hung up the phone, and not long after returning upstairs, he heard the doorbell ring regularly. He looked down through the gap in the curtain and saw Zhang Shixue standing at the gate of the courtyard.
Lin Jiangbei's heart couldn't help but tighten slightly, could it be that something has changed in the bombing of a Japanese elementary school? Otherwise, Zhang Shixue would not have directly activated the emergency contact method without prior notice and rushed here to meet him!
So Lin Jiangbei hurriedly walked downstairs, opened the door and picked Zhang Shixue in, and asked in a low voice: "Secretary Zhang, why did you rush over now, what happened?" ”
"The old drunkard is dead!" Zhang Shixue said in a low voice.
"What? The old drunkard is dead? How did he die? Lin Jiangbei never dreamed that Master Zhang would give him such an answer, so he hurriedly asked in a low voice.
"It's hard to say who the murderer was who was poisoned, but Major West Bryan, the interpreter of the U.S. Fourth Expeditionary Force Command, is the biggest suspect." Zhang Shixue looked left and right, lowered his voice and said, "It's inconvenient to talk in the courtyard, let's talk about the specific situation in your room!" ”
"Good!"
Lin Jiangbei nodded, led Zhang Shixue to his room on the third floor, stretched out his hand to pay attention to the door, and said to Zhang Shixue: "Secretary Zhang, you can rest assured now." ”
When Zhang Shixue followed Lin Jiangbei upstairs, he saw the light leaking from the crack in the door of Liu Xuan's room opposite, so he stretched out his hand and pointed in the opposite direction, and Lin Jiangbei replied: "That's my subordinate from Hangcheng Station, you don't have to worry." ”
Hearing that it was Lin Jiangbei's subordinates, Zhang Shixue was relieved and opened his mouth to tell Lin Jiangbei.
It turned out that after receiving the information provided by Zhang Shixue, Colonel Price, commander of the Fourth Expeditionary Force of the US Marine Corps, arranged for his cronies to carry out a secret investigation within the Fourth Expeditionary Force Command, and soon found out that Major West Bryan, the interpreter of the Fourth Expeditionary Force Command, had close contacts with the old Belarusian tailor.
Among them, the carrier pigeon that West Bryan loved was purchased from an old drunkard. Moreover, Colonel Price's cronies also discovered during the investigation that the pigeon sold by the old drunkard to West Bryan was a pure Japanese military pigeon blood. As a result, West Bryan was listed as the biggest suspect in the Japanese mole and was closely monitored.
"At four o'clock this afternoon, the listening staff of the Expeditionary Force Command overheard that West Bryan had received a call from the old drunkard, inviting West Bryan to visit the old drunkard's house. So West Bryan went. Zhang Shixue said, "But I didn't expect that a few minutes after West Bryan entered the old drunkard's house, he came out to call the police with a panicked face, saying that the old drunkard was dead......
"After receiving the alarm, the patrol room of the Ministry of Industry Bureau did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent someone to rush over, and after the scene investigation, it was concluded that the old drunkard was poisoned, and the time of death was within an hour, and the first witness at the scene, West Brian, was the biggest suspect!"
