Chapter 483: Motivation
From the moment Tao Jie walked into Yan's house, he was attracted by this magnificent courtyard.
He thought to himself how nice it would be if he could live in a big house like this.
From the chief of operations of the North China Region of the Military Command to the director of the Third Intelligence Office of the Military Police Detachment, Tao Jie's property has not changed much.
When his work is transferred from underground to aboveground, he can be above board and does not have to hide his identity, he naturally wants to improve the quality of life.
Before Tao Jie came to Yan's house, he felt that it was already very good to live in Oxford Villa No. 5 in the British Concession.
After all, it was also one of the few high-end villas in the British Concession.
However, compared with Yan Shuxun's family, Tao Jie felt that he was too aggrieved.
The reason why he proposed that Yan Mansion had internal ghosts was that he had such a mind at that time.
Of course, no one can rule out that the Yan family has no internal ghosts.
Hiroshi Kawasaki supported his idea, and the next thing was much easier.
"Guan Mingpeng's case, have you found any clues?" Hiroshi Kawasaki asked again.
If the military command is not removed, there will never be peace in Haigu.
Although it is ridiculous to pin hopes on the Chinese, for now, there seems to be no better way.
"I am stepping up the investigation, and I am going to conduct a comprehensive survey of all the teachers and staff of Shude Primary School. At the same time, all the residents in the Songshou area, within a radius of 500 meters, carried out a detailed survey. Tao Jie hurriedly said.
Guan Mingpeng's case, he reported directly to Kawasaki Hiroshi.
He needed the cooperation of the gendarmerie detachment to report to Nozaki.
Kawasaki Hiroshi is of a higher rank than Nozaki and has a chance to curry favor with Kawasaki, and of course he will bypass Nozaki.
If Guan Mingpeng's case is solved, he will be able to soar.
Tao Jie hopes that he can be transferred to the headquarters of the gendarmerie.
In the territory controlled by the Japanese, if he can serve as the director of an intelligence office, he can really go sideways in Haigu.
"It is necessary to step up, and if there is a suspected target, you can take back the gendarmerie detachment for interrogation. If it is inconvenient, it can be sent directly to the headquarters of the gendarmerie. Kawasaki Hiroshi said coldly.
As long as he can find the military commanders, he can do whatever it takes.
"Hey!" Tao Jie hurriedly responded.
Kawasaki Hiroshi gave him a privilege to arrest him at any time as long as he was suspicious.
Lu Chengzhou knew the news of Yan Shuxun's killing as soon as possible.
The assassination plan was designed by him, Zeng Zilian was responsible for collecting intelligence, and Chen Bailu provided specific candidates.
It is naturally a piece of cake for a professional agent trained by the military commander to be qualified as Yan Shuxun's bodyguard.
Last night, Zeng Zilian never came back, she waited for news at No. 26 No. 51 Road.
Chen Bailu was responsible for answering and properly arranging the operatives before Chen Bailu informed Zeng Zilian of the news.
Zeng Zilian is ostensibly the head of the intelligence team of Haigu Station, but Chen Bailu believes that she has a special relationship with matches at the same time.
Many of the matches' orders were conveyed by Zeng Zilian.
And a lot of the work at Haigu Station was also reported by Zeng Zilian to the match.
Fortunately, the match would meet with them every once in a while, otherwise Chen Bailu really suspected that the match was controlled by Zeng Zilian.
After Zeng Zilian received the news, she went home and reported to Lu Chengzhou as soon as possible.
Although Lu Chengzhou felt that this operation was foolproof, after receiving Zeng Zilian's report, he was relieved.
Even with such a plan, he arranged a backup plan.
As soon as Yan Shuxun died, Lu Chengzhou was going to contact Niu Shaoshan, Xia Ningjing and others.
If Liu Tongyu's death only shocked these people, then He Shangyuan's injury made them realize the true attitude of the military commanders towards traitors.
And Yan Shuxun's death may make them frightened and unable to sleep at night.
There are indeed hardcore traitors in Haigu, but many of them are wavering, they are grass on the wall, and they can fall on both sides at any time.
Lu Chengzhou did not need them to be loyal to the military commanders, but only asked them to give them a certain degree of convenience to the actions of the military commanders.
Lu Chengzhou chose Xia Ningjing first, and asked the military commander to meet, and he behaved very positively.
Lu Chengzhou made an appointment with Xia Ningjing to meet at the National Hotel in the French Concession, and Xia Ningjing not only said that he would support the national army in the war of resistance.
At the same time, like Shen Zhuguang, he extended a helping hand to the war.
As if they had made an appointment, the two gave a check for 5,000 yuan, and in private, they also gave Lu Chengzhou a check for 2,000 yuan.
Xia Ningjing is the director of the health bureau, and Lu Chengzhou can use him in many places.
In order to facilitate contact with Xia Ningjing, Lu Chengzhou agreed with him on a set of code words.
In the future, as long as someone tells him this set of code words, Xia Ningjing must fully cooperate with that person's work.
After all, there are some things that Lu Chengzhou is not good to show up in person.
Originally, Lu Chengzhou wanted to tell Xia Ningjing and ask him to take special care of the Chinese and Western pharmacies on Yiyi Street.
But after thinking about it, Lu Chengzhou felt that the time was not yet ripe.
Xia Ningjing is also an old bureaucrat, who knows whether he used money to open the way, whether he sincerely resisted the war or to save his life.
Lu Chengzhou estimated that all those who fought to break their heads and cooperate with the military commander were probably trying to save their lives.
Including the previous Sun Zhishu, he also had such thoughts.
Without the fear of their lives, how could these people move closer to Chongqing.
No matter what their purpose is, they can be recruited for the sake of the war of resistance.
This is also the policy of the Party to build a broad anti-Japanese national united front.
"How did you talk to Xia Ningjing?" Zeng Zilian asked after she went upstairs at night.
"He is very cooperative, let Fu Qi go to him in two days, prepare a set of surgical instruments for the Seventh Route Army, and prepare a batch of gauze, bandages, and sulfonamide powder, etc., to see how Xia Ningjing does it." Lu Chengzhou said with a deep groan.
On the surface, Xia Ningjing said something earth-shattering.
Whether he is sincere in resisting the war depends on his actions.
Only by taking practical actions can there be no turning back.
"Okay." Zeng Zilian nodded.
"This is a code, only recognize the code, not people." Lu Chengzhou wrote down the code with Xia Ningjing on a piece of paper for Zeng Zilian to memorize.
"What about Niu Shaoshan? When will you meet him? After Zeng Zilian wrote down the code, she picked up the match on the table and burned the note.
If she needed a code later, she would copy it again.
Although Lu Chengzhou's handwriting is disguised, it is still necessary to pay attention.
If you can reduce the risk of exposure, you must stick to it.
"Niu Shaoshan's situation is a bit special, as far as I know, he has a good relationship with Mokawa Hidekazu." Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
He also hoped that Niu Shao's kindness would be towards the War of Resistance.
However, Niu Shaoshan also has another identity: the head of Haigu of the Chinese Youth Party.
Moreover, during his tenure as secretary general of the Haigu Municipal Office, Niu Shaoshan had a very secret relationship with Maochuan Xiuhe.
Lu Chengzhou was very skeptical of Niu Shaoshan's motives.
"What then?" Zeng Zilian asked.
