On the morning of February 16, 1972, after lunch, I convened a meeting with all the members of the Nightingale Group on the deployment of the enemy's network investigation. I, Song Zihu, Song Xiaobing, Song Zhehui, Song Guorong, Gu Shunmin, Ma Zhengyi, Xia Feiyan, Xue Mei, Li Xia, Qiao Yan and other 11 members of the Nightingale Action Team participated.

I said, "Colleagues! We left the secret service school on the morning of January 2nd, and it has been more than a month since we interned here! Our life and work have stabilized though! However, our investigation of local enemy networks still does not make any substantial progress! In order to ensure that the results are available as quickly as possible, we must adjust the direction, objectives and content of our investigations! Find out what is going on with the enemy's network as soon as possible! ”

Song Zihu said: "Team leader! Everyone has done their best in terms of investigation! That's all we have! There are no resources to use locally, and we are not locals! How do you do your research? ”

I said, "Song Zihu! As usual, you're right! However, we are not people who do regular work! We are special professionals, and we do extraordinary things! If we don't want to do anything, the industry will definitely knock us out soon! Really, I don't want to be in this situation! ”

Ma Zhengyi said: "Song Zihu! Change your complaining ** disease! Listen to the team leader assign the work! ”

I said, "I won't say anything else!" It turned out that we were divided into three investigation groups, and I took Gu Shunming and Song Xiaobing to conduct research on the businessmen and business owners! Ma Zhengyi took Xue Mei and Song Zhehui to investigate sensitive personnel in the public office! Song Zihu took Xia Feiyan and Song Guorong to investigate the local customs, transportation, docks, warehouses, etc.! Li Xia and Qiao Yan stayed in the office! Dear colleagues, Based on the preliminary results of my group's research, we have found some clues about the enemy network! This clue may be the breakthrough for us to crack the enemy's network! Therefore, we immediately adjusted the personnel, investigation direction, objectives and content of the three teams around this clue! ”

After drinking water, I said: "Now I announce that Ma Zhengyi has been transferred from the customs team to serve as the deputy head of the commercial enterprise group!" Assist me in my business research! The customs team is headed by Xue Mei and Song Zhehui is a member. The establishment and membership of the dock group remain the same! The task of each group is to conduct statistics, investigation, tracking, identification and incident investigation of Professor Lu himself, his close contacts, their peripheral contacts and contact persons, etc., with Professor Lu Aiguo as the center! According to the clues provided by the commercial enterprise group, the customs team will conduct follow-up research on the personnel, enterprises, and units related to Professor Lu and appear within the scope of the group's investigation, and try to find and collect clues such as illegal declarations, inconsistent single goods, and secret smuggling of these personnel as much as possible! According to the clues provided by the commercial enterprise group, the wharf team will conduct follow-up research on the investigation targets related to Professor Lu and appear within the scope of the group's investigation, that is, personnel, enterprises, units, etc., find these personnel as soon as possible, and secretly investigate and collect evidence on the use of nameless goods, unrecorded goods, nameless warehouses, etc.! Do you understand? ”

Everyone said in unison, "Understood!" ”

After the meeting, the customs group, the terminal group and the commercial enterprise group discussed the work of the group.

Me, Ma Zhengyi, Song Xiaobing, Gu Shunmin, and internal staff Li Xia and Qiao Yan from the commercial enterprise group held a group meeting in my office!

I said, "Now, my colleague here is a core member of this investigation!" We must carry out internal secrecy of the core members! Will you be able to do it? ”

Ma Zhengyi said: "Thank you team leader for your trust! I can do it! You give us the work! ”

I said, "Based on the results of our investigation in the last month! We can basically confirm that Professor Lu Aiguo is an important leader of the enemy network, "Blue Cat"! In the next step, we will focus on the following: First, Song Xiaobing is responsible for secretly searching the residence and office of the blue cat, discovering the secret radio station, code book and network member list and other information they contact network members, and extracting and collecting evidence from these intelligence! Second, Ma Zhengyi and I went to the university to sign up for study, and became an economics student of Professor Lu Aiguo, mainly Ma Zhengyi, to register and collect evidence from some people who came into contact with the blue cat, and investigate the identity, background, occupation and unit of these personnel! I am the general coordinator of the entire investigation operation, and Ma Zhengyi is the chief staff officer and intelligence contact person of the entire investigation operation, passing information to the internal team members and other members of the investigation team! Got it? ”

They said in unison, "Understood! ”

In this way, the nightingale group has a clear work goal and a specific division of labor.

......

On February 20, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the members of the Nightingale group began to = go to work normally, and the various investigation teams began to carry out the investigation work in an orderly manner.

Since it is the season for customers to order summer clothing at this time, the production of Roche and Mai's Garment Factory is going on day and night, and my business in Roche and Mai's Garment Factory is naturally very prosperous!

......

After the university opened in early March, Ma Zhengyi and I went to the university to enroll in the university, and we became students in the preparatory class of Economics and Finance of Professor Lu Aiguo.

Prof. Lu is very happy that both of us have been her students! She likes to talk to us individually. When we talk, she often gives us her own opinions, her views on the current situation and situation, and we know that she is brainwashing us! We don't have any precautions against her, so we have had a lot of opportunities to get up close and personal with her, and we know her better and better!

In the process of our contact with Professor Lu, we recorded, photographed and recorded her in the university's office, dormitory, and the people she came into contact with, as well as her daily routines and affairs.

......

Every night at 9 o'clock, at the intelligence exchange meeting of the Nightingale Group, Ma Zhengyi handed over the new information and clues obtained by the business and enterprise group to other investigation teams to secretly Xue Mei and Song Zihu, and they conducted investigations and evidence collection within their scope according to these information and clues.

......

Through investigation, we learned that on April 5th, the Qingming Festival, on this day, Lu Aiguo, Li Guowei and Luo Xiuying and other three people were going to leave the local area and go to the distant countryside to worship their ancestors!

Therefore, our business group decided to divide into two groups of people to search Lu Aiguo's residence and office at the same time at 12 o'clock in the evening on April 5!

Song Xiaobing and Gu Shunmin were responsible for the search of Lu Aiguo's residence.

Before the search, I drew the two of them the floor plan and interior layout of Lu Aiguo's villa, as well as the floors and locations of the basement, office and study that were the focus of the search.

After Song Xiaobing and Gu Shunmin began to prepare ****, cameras, flashlights, weapons and ammunition, gloves, head coverings and shoe covers, and other action items, they moved at the designated time!

Ma Zhengyi and I were responsible for searching Lu Aiguo's office at the university, and we also prepared a full set of mobile supplies in advance, and we also searched the target office at the designated time!

Skills such as concealment, wall climbing, rock climbing, traceless search, lockpicking, photographing and forensics are our regular training in the Agent School, and we are all excellent at these items! As a result, our entire search process went very smoothly!

......

At 3 a.m. on April 6, our two search teams completed all the investigation tasks as planned and returned to the villa office of the Nightingale group.

The four of us are in my office, doing intelligence aggregation and analysis.

Song Xiaobing's group found a radio station in the dark wall of the office of Lu Aiguo's residence! There are traces of recent operations on the radio station, and they have extracted fingerprints from it and taken photos of the radio station for evidence.

Song Xiaobing found a list in the safe in the office, but the names and occupations on the list were all code names, with contact numbers and addresses; Several documents were found, however, the contents of which were cryptic, and they must have been related to their work plans and actions! Song Xiaobing took pictures of these lists and documents!

However, in the safe of their residence, they did not find the codebook!

In the study room of the residence, they found no valuable information, however, they took photographs of the entire bookshelf and its contents.

In the basement of the residence, they found a darkroom where film and photographs were developed; There is also an arsenal of conventional weapons, ammunition, and agents from abroad, which they have photographed to corroborate.

We found a large number of US dollars, foreign currency, gold bars and other belongings in the safe of Lu Aiguo's university office! A purchase list, a customer list, several letters were also found! We have taken photos of these for forensics!

However, we didn't find anything like a codebook either!

Of course, we also took photos of the bookshelves and displays in Lu Aiguo's university office!

After we gathered the information, Song Xiaobing and I were in the darkroom in the basement of the villa, developing and photographing all four microfilms.

When the work was done, we put the four microfilms into a secret box and hid it under a base plate brick in the basement.

Everyone took a set of photos and held an intelligence analysis meeting in my office.

Song Xiaobing said: "It's strange! They often use the radio station to communicate, why don't they have a codebook? Did they hide the codebook somewhere else? ”

Ma Zhengyi said: "This should be unlikely! They use the radio a lot, and the codebook must be in a convenient place! Could it be that they use a certain book as a codebook?! This is the usual method of old spies! Let's take a look at the photos of the bookshelves! ”

So, let's take a closer look at the photos of the bookshelves and display shelves we took in two places.

Sure enough, we found the same book on both shelves! This book is the Chinese version of the Bible published by a famous commercial printing house in 1948.

I said, "This book might be a codebook!" After dawn, Ma Zhengyi and Song Xiaobing went to the local second-hand book market to find a way to buy the book! And who bought the book? It looks like we're nearing the end of our investigation! I'll draw up the message right away! Report back to headquarters! Request reinforcements! Now, let's pack up our information and take a short break! ”

So, after putting away the mobility tools and photos, everyone went back to the room to rest.

I drafted a message from the Nightingale group to the Yangtze River in the office, and the message read: Yangtze River, the blue cat has been revealed, all the secrets are mastered, and I request reinforcements from the headquarters!

After I got up the message, the other members of the Nightingale group got up and washed up, and after everyone had breakfast, I asked Qiao Yan to translate the message, and Qiao Yan asked Li Xia to send the message to the headquarters of the Yangtze River.

Soon, I saw the reply from the headquarters of Changjiang, and the reply was: Someone from my hometown will come in three days! Wait!

I know that the headquarters will send someone to us in three days to receive information and participate in our next move!

......

At around 10 o'clock in the morning, after a short break, I drove to work at Roche Commercial Bank, and Song Xiaobing and Ma Zhengyi rode bicycles to the second-hand book market to buy books and do research.

At 11 a.m., I arrived at the office building of Roche Firm.

As soon as I arrived at my office, I received a call from Luo Xiucheng, who asked me to come to his office for a meeting.

When I arrived at Luo Xiucheng's office, Luo Xiucheng, Mak Jihui, as well as Luo Juncai and Mak Zhengjing were already sitting on the sofa in the office waiting for me, and after I sat down, everyone had a meeting.

Luo Juncai smiled and said, "Zilong! You are our blessed general! In less than half a year, our summer clothes have been produced and the goods have been delivered! The next few months will be the off-season for clothing production! Your brother Xiucheng and sister Ji Hui are also going on a trip to get married! Our two old people are going back to Hong Kong City to retire! Roche & Co. and Mai's Garment Factory will be closed for the holidays from tomorrow to mid-June! ”

Luo Xiucheng smiled and said, "Zilong! You're going on vacation too! We've calculated your commission and remitted it to your bank account! During this time, you completed the sales of 15 million yuan of clothing raw materials such as fabrics in Roche Commercial Bank, and we gave a commission of 2.25 million yuan, you go to the bank to check it yourself! ”

McGie Hui said, "Brother Zilong! You have sold 25 million yuan of clothing at Mai's, and the commission we give you is 3.75 million yuan! Go to the bank and check it out! It's time to arrive! ”

I said, "Brothers and sisters! You're all gone! In the future, what will happen to the company's business? ”

Luo Juncai said: "Alas! Zilong! After Xiucheng and Jihui finished their trip, they returned! You've had a hard time too! You should also take a few months off! When they come back, they'll call you! During this time, you stay at home and don't go anywhere! In the future, you don't want to go to that old woman's place! You know? ”

I said, "Okay! If, after the time is over, you will not come back! Can I go to Port City to find you? ”

Mai Zhengjing smiled and said, "Zilong! You're thinking too much! We will be back for sure! If you're bored here, go to Port City and play with us! Wait, Sister Ji Hui will tell you the phone number and address of our home in Port City! ”

After we had a meeting, Sister Mai left me the phone number and address of Mai's family in Hong Kong City.

I went back to my office and packed my clothes, shoes and other personal items, put them in a large cardboard box, and packed my business materials into my briefcase.

I put them in the back of the car, and I drove to the bank.

At the bank counter, I found that two new accounts were added to my account with a total of 6 million yuan.

It turned out that there was $1.55 million in this account, and I withdrew $10,000, so the total amount of cash in my account was $7.54 million.

I thought that I might not spend a lot of money in the near future, and the interest on bank deposits was relatively high, so I converted 7 million yuan into a five-year fixed term with an annual interest rate of 11.5%, so that I had an interest income of 805,000 yuan per year! With this interest income, even if I don't have a job to do, I won't be short of money.

After handling the matter at the bank, I withdrew 20,000 yuan of reserve money and drove a car to the grass by the river to relax and think about problems!

I think that the Luo family and the Mai family left this time, and they may not come back! Perhaps, they are worried that they will be implicated by the blue cat, they are not safe on the mainland! If so, the blue cat must have revealed some information to them, prompting them to leave in a hurry at this time, because, I know that they don't have a factory in Port City, and they mainly make money on the mainland.

Although, I felt a little surprised and lost that I was abandoned and unemployed by them! However, I am very pleased with the good income I have received at Roche and Mak Clan, as well as the social experience!

At this time, I have a fixed deposit of 7 million yuan, 540,000 yuan in cash, and a set of high-end cars! I have an ID card and passport in Hong Kong and China, as well as a whole set of tools and business experience to do sales business!

I feel that I am no longer a novice who has just entered society!

I think that after our mission in Yangcheng is over, I will definitely find my brother and sister in my hometown, and investigate the murderer of our family, and then go to realize my life dream!
