Although Ning Zhiheng had been prepared before, he was still quite disappointed in his heart, although he tried hard to affect this result, the general trend of history would not change in any way.

As a matter of fact, a war between two countries is, in the final analysis, a war between national strength, and absolute strength overrides everything, and the role that can be played in the contest on the intelligence battlefield is also limited; at the present stage, Japan's national strength and military strength are indeed much greater than China's, and in the early stage of the war, it will be very difficult for the Chinese army to gain superiority in various battlefields, no matter what it does.

In the office of the director, the seat gave clear instructions for the subsequent actions, that is, to wait until the aftermath of the incident of Kawamoto Kurashi has completely passed, and then Ning Zhiheng will go to Hangzhou to preside over the arrest operation.

As for the length of time, it depends on the specific situation, and the time process is about 20 to 30 days.

The matter was decided, Ning Zhiheng withdrew from the seat and office, he first came to Wei Liangbi's office, knocked on the door and entered.

Ning Zhiheng walked to the sofa and sat down casually, stretched his waist casually, and yawned repeatedly.

Wei Liangbi saw that Ning Zhiheng was obviously a little tired, so he asked, "It's a bit long to go to Hangzhou this time, is there a task for you?" ”

Wei Liangbi knew that as soon as Ning Zhiheng came back, he would go directly to see the seat, which was two hours, and he only came back now, so he must have something important to report.

Ning Zhiheng rubbed his cheeks with his hand and cleared his mind, he had hardly not rested in the past two days, only last night he was in a daze on the train for a while, he was indeed a little tired, and when he heard Wei Liangbi's question, he nodded and said: "There is a mission, but fortunately, everything is going well, but senior brother, how happened to the previous operation to Chongqing?" It's been more than 20 days, it's time for a result? ”

Wei Liangbi got up and brought Ning Zhiheng a cup of hot tea, put it in front of him, and said: "The order has come down, my first action group will set off in three days, responsible for clearing out bandits and gangsters in Chongqing, I am afraid that if you don't come back, you won't be able to meet each other!" ”

"Great! You're here to take care of my family for me. Ning Zhiheng said happily, this matter has finally been done, so that the senior brother can safely evacuate this place in advance, and his family in Chongqing can also be taken care of, and his heart is finally more steady.

Wei Liangbi also nodded and smiled: "Tomorrow, when we have time, we will go to the teacher's house to have a look and see if the teacher has anything to order." ”

Ning Zhiheng hurriedly agreed: "Okay, then I'll go tomorrow, I haven't been to see the teacher for a while." ”

The two of them talked again, Ning Zhiheng got up and left, returned to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, every boss had to go to say hello, he went to Zhao Ziliang and Xiang Yan's offices to sit down, and also brought back from Hangzhou, sent the small gifts that had been prepared a long time ago, and retreated after a moment of greeting.

As for Deputy Director Huang, he naturally had to visit him at night, and the antiques that Liu Tongfang gave him filial piety to him happened to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and they all had to give them to his big backer.

When he returned to his office, he met Wang Shucheng and a group of subordinate officers, explained his work, and then returned to his home to rest.

But at the same time, in the Japanese consulate in Hangzhou, Imai Yushi stood in Kurashi Komoto's room, carefully examining every trace in the room.

At this time, a military doctor outside the room announced, "Team leader Imai, Mr. Kawamoto's body has been examined. ”

"What's the result?" Imai Yushi picked up a clog with his hand and observed it carefully, asking without looking back.

The military doctor bowed slightly and replied respectfully: "There are no external injuries on the body, the residue of the stomach has also been tested, there are no drug ingredients, judging from the condition of the heart valve chamber and the slight spasm of the muscles, it is a sudden heart attack and death, and the time is between one and two o'clock in the morning." ”

Although this result had been predicted before, Imai Yushi still breathed a sigh of relief, Kawamoto Kurashi has an old heart disease, which everyone knows, and now the result given by the military doctor also shows that it is a normal death, which is the ending that everyone wants to see.

If it is assassinated, then the situation is serious, and the opponent's purpose is worth noting, whether it is directly aimed at Kawamoto Kurashi himself, or the top-secret information he has in his hands, these need to be traced.

However, in such a well-guarded Japanese consulate, the possibility of being assassinated is almost zero, and if it weren't for the special identity of Kurashi Kawamoto, there would be no need to spend so much trouble and effort to investigate.

Imai Yushi didn't find any suspicious clues in the room, so he got up and came to the door, and asked Kurita Taro, who had been guarding the door, "Kurita-kun, has anyone entered this room since you found out that Mr. Kawamoto died yesterday?" ”

Kurita Taro bowed and replied, "It's just me, and a few other people who carried Mr. Kawamoto's body for an autopsy have entered, and I've been keeping people here since then, without leaving a single step, and no one has ever entered the room again." ”

Imai Yushi nodded, Kurita Taro is a close confidant of Kawamoto Kurashi for many years, and his loyalty to Kawamoto Kurashi is undoubted, and he reported it in time after the incident and controlled the scene as soon as possible, and the way to deal with it was also very appropriate.

"Where is Mr. Kawamoto's place to store important documents and items?" Imai Yushi then asked.

Kurita Taro pointed to the metal door next to the living room and said, "Mr. Kawamoto's most important belongings are in this room, and only he can enter them. ”

When Imai Yushi heard this, he took a few steps to the metal door, and he pushed it with his hand and asked, "Where is the key?" ”

Kurita Taro stepped forward and handed a bunch of keys to Imai Yushi, and said, "It's this set of keys, which has always been held by Mr. Kawamoto himself, and I found it under the pillow when I died, and I never left it." ”

Imai Yushi took the key, tried it a few times, pushed the metal door open, and then cautiously entered, and after a long time, he walked out and asked, "Kurita-kun, have you been in this room?" ”

Kurita Taro replied, "Never, usually only Mr. Kawamoto can enter, this habit is like this when I was in Shanghai, Imai Team Leader, you know." ”

Imai Yushi nodded, he was also one of Kawamoto Kurashi's most trusted old subordinates, so he naturally knew the preferences and habits of this boss.

He knew that Kurashi Kawamoto liked to collect antiques the most, and that no one else was allowed to enter the place where he kept these items.

He beckoned, motioned to Kurita Taro and said, "Then, Kurita-kun, please come in with me to have a look." ”

Kurita Taro didn't understand what Imai Yushi meant, but he still stepped forward in confusion and entered the room.

After entering, I found that this is a very large collection room, which is full of precious Chinese antiques.

"These antiques are treasures that Mr. has collected over the years." Kurita Taro looked at the antiques and said, he still has an impression of many of the items in it.

Imai Yushi didn't take a second look, he was not interested in antiques, walked a few steps in a row, came to the location of the safe, pointed to the combination lock of the safe and asked, "Kurita-kun, do you know the password of this safe?" ”

Kurita Taro walked over, looked at the safe and said, "I bought this safe, and the code and key are only known to Mr. Kawamoto, so I have no way of knowing." ”

Imai Yushi said with a serious face: "This should be the top-secret information in Mr. Kawamoto's hands, and we must check it to ensure that these top-secret information has not been lost." ”

Kurita Taro carefully checked the combination lock and said: "This combination lock has not been opened by others, because Mr. Kawamoto once said that the safe has an early warning method, that is, every time when the password lock is recovered, the number is restored to a unique mathematics, so that you can effectively find out whether anyone has touched and turned the combination lock, which is a good early warning habit." Now the number of the combination lock is Mr. Kawamoto's own birthday, and it must be the lockbox that Mr. Kawamoto closed himself. So the information in this is safe. ”

Hearing this, Imai Yushi nodded, it seems that this information is safe, but these top-secret information still have to be reviewed, so he had to say: "The new person in charge of intelligence in the Hangzhou area is coming soon, and this information must be checked and handed over, so the safe must be opened, there is no way, it can only be opened by violent means." ”

The decision was made, Imai Yushi sent someone to call a few military attachés, using cutting and other violent methods, it took more than an hour to open the safe, and then he began to check the classified documents alone in the house, and then compared them with the memo, and finally determined that the information was indeed not lost, and it was only at this time that he was truly relieved.

So far, the matter has become very clear, Kawamoto Kurashi died of a heart attack, and the top-secret information in his hand has not been lost or leaked, and he can return to Sagawa.

It's just a pity that the major event that I arranged the investigation has not yet come to fruition, and I don't know the specific progress now.

Thinking of this, he found Kurita Taro and asked, "Did any intelligence officers report to Mr. Kawamoto during this time?" ”

Kurita Taro thought about it for a moment and said, "Then it was only the day before yesterday that Katsutake Sakida, the leader of the twilight team, came and talked with Mr. Kawamoto for a while. ”

"I'll arrange for him to call me at once," Imai Yushi began, "I want to know what Mr. Kawamoto's last contact information is." ”

"Hey, I'll do it right away!" Kurita nodded in agreement, turned around and walked away quickly.
