Chapter 1176: Reactions from all sides
After explaining the matter, Ning Zhiheng waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go back and prepare, Shen Xiang will stay for a while!" ”
Ji Hongyi and Zuo Qiang bowed and retreated, leaving only Shen Xiang, he knew that the director must have an important task to explain, so he bowed and stood up, waiting for Ning Zhiheng's orders.
Ning Zhiheng asked: "You have been in Hong Kong for so long, how much do you know about the situation of the local gang Fuxing Mountain?" ”
"Fuxing Mountain?"
Shen Xiang recalled a little in his mind, and then said: "Now Hong Kong has the most Tangkou with the prefix of 'and', and there are not many Tangkou with the prefix of 'Fu', but all the Tangkou with the word 'Fu' are the earliest gang organizations established in Hong Kong, Fuxingshan is one of them, it is said that it was originally responsible for raising funds for Hongmen, and now it is relatively low-key, and generally does not participate in gang activities, but they are well-organized, have strong financial resources, and have a very high status in Hongmen. ”
The largest gang organizations in China are none other than the Hongmen, Qingbang, and Pao Ge Guilds, of which the Pao Ge Guild is mainly entrenched in southwest China, mainly in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou and other places.
The Green Gang is mainly concentrated in East China, especially in the Shanghai area, and all of them are the sphere of influence of the Green Gang.
But Hongmen is different, although it has a considerable relationship with the Qinggang, with "red flowers and green leaves, Qinghong family!" But in terms of scale, it has long exceeded the Green Gang, so it is often said in the rivers and lakes, "The Green Gang has a line, and Hongmen has a large area."
And there is a big difference between the two in nature, first of all, the Green Gang has no clear political proposition, they were originally composed of some ordinary people who only wanted food and clothing, and at the beginning of their establishment, they were just to keep warm and survive in a group.
However, Hongmen took the anti-Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty as its own responsibility, and the founders were all former Ming people with ambitions, which also determined that the pattern of Hongmen was far greater than that of the Qing Gang, and the development potential was not comparable to that of the Qing Gang.
So much so that in modern times, South China and Hong Kong, especially overseas Chinese gangs, are Hongmen organizations, and even the former leaders of the Kuomintang have the status of overseas Hongmen disciples, so it is conceivable that the influence of Hongmen is huge.
The current Hong Kong gangs all belong to the branch of Hongmen, and the history of the word Fu is the longest, and most of them have died out until now, and Fuxing Mountain is one of the only remaining time-honored brands.
"Wu Chenghong, the leader of Fuxing Mountain, have you heard of it?"
"I've heard that this person is old in the halls of Hong Kong, has high prestige, is a famous bigwig, has a transcendent status, has a lot of right to speak, and wants to give him face in all aspects.
And I heard that he is still an old member of the League, he made a lot of contributions to the party-state at the beginning, and he is inextricably linked with many political leaders in China, he is a figure! ”
Sure enough, Ning Zhiheng nodded secretly, this world is chaotic, with only one woman in Yongfeng, even if she is shrewd and capable, how can she control such a big situation and have such achievements?
Not to mention Yongfeng, behind every top intelligence dealer in the intelligence market, which one does not have his own background and power support, and none of them are easy people.
In the end, Yongfeng borrowed his father's momentum, as for whether Wu Chenghong was involved, and whether there were other forces behind him? Then it is unknown.
Ning Zhiheng instructed: "It's not enough to just hear about it, secretly investigate Wu Chenghong's background and network, focusing on the connections in South China, the more detailed the better, especially her daughter Wu Yuanying." ”
"Wu Yuanying?" Shen Xiang looked at Ning Zhiheng suspiciously.
"Yes, this woman's identity is not ordinary, she is Yongfeng." Ning Zhiheng said.
"What, Wu Yuanying is Yongfeng?" Shen Xiang said in surprise.
"I'm going to get in touch with him in the future and see if this person can be of use to us." Ning Zhiheng nodded and said confirmatively.
"Yes, I see!" Shen Xiang nodded and took the order.
"Remember, this matter is to be kept secret, Yongfeng's identity is only known to you alone, and it must not be revealed."
"Please rest assured!" Shen Xiang nodded solemnly.
At the gate of the Hong Kong shipping company, Sandora was walking out with a team of intelligence officers, and the group got into the car, and Sandora leaned on the back seat, and couldn't help but look depressed, she closed her eyes slightly, and her mind carefully thought about everything that happened.
The engine drawings she had seen Scott store in the safe, where the garrison and intelligence were located, were full of guards, heavily guarded, and impossible for outsiders to enter.
Moreover, the safe is the most advanced type, there is no password and key, and it is impossible to open it unless it takes some hands and feet to use violence.
So Sandora was sure that the engine drawings must have been taken by Scott himself, but why did Scott do it?
Of course, there are other motives, this is obviously Scott's self-theft, and now he has suddenly disappeared, all of which shows that something is wrong with Scott himself.
I didn't expect that the person who I relied on as my right-hand man would be an internal ghost.
But if Scott is really an internal ghost, then there is no need to be so obvious, according to the investigation just now, Scott rushed to the shipping company early in the morning and booked twenty tickets to London, that is, he was going to escort his team and drawing film back to London, if he really absconded, there was no need to book another ticket.
Furthermore, even if you want to steal the drawings, there is no need to take away the original microfilm, you only need to make a copy, take away the copy, after all, the original film is kept by Scott himself, and it is not difficult to copy one at all, so why take the original film and expose himself?
It's all hard to explain, and the more Sandora thinks about it, the more confused she becomes, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration strikes in her head, copy microfiche?
Yes, there is also a possibility that Scott did not plan to abscond with the drawing film, he did not have a reason to do so, maybe he just carried the original film out to copy, but there was an unexpected situation, his disappearance was deliberately done, not Scott's own will.
"Stop!" Sandora shouted suddenly, slamming on the brakes and the car came to an abrupt halt.
"Let's go to the police station."
The next day, the garrison and police departments on Hong Kong Island were mobilized to carry out a dragnet search on the island, and the intensity was so great that the well-informed forces of all sides were moved by the news, and soon found out the situation.
In the Yue Mansion, Yue Sheng recounted the news to Jiang Tianhe in detail.
"As far as I know, someone entered the dockyard the night before yesterday and tried to find the drawings, but they were still arrested by the British, and then the British intelligence officer Scott disappeared, all kinds of signs show that the British seem to have made progress, but they are afraid that something will go wrong again, and now both black and white are tracking the traces of this intelligence officer, and the British are red-eyed, I judge that the drawings are very likely to be on this intelligence officer."
Jiang Tianhe was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Brother Yue Sheng, you said that this Scott's disappearance, did someone hear the news and take the initiative?" ”
"It's possible, the biggest possibility is the Japanese, but there is no exact information, I'll think about it again, now the British have transferred the police department, there are some of my friends there, just use it, as soon as there is news, they will notify me."
"I'm afraid that the news will lag behind, and the Japanese have already succeeded." Jiang Tianhe said worriedly.
"Tianhe, you also have to be considerate of me, after all, Hong Kong is the British who have the final say, their advantage is too great, we can only observe in secret, waiting for the opportunity to make a move."
Of course, Jiang Tianhe knew the current situation, he nodded and said: "It's still the same sentence, it's up to people to make things happen, let's do our best!" ”
And at the Japanese consulate, Hidehiko Suzuki had already received the same news, and he was anxiously walking around the office.
At this time, Tsuyo Harada pushed the door in, looked at Hidehiko Suzuki, and asked: "Suzuki-kun, what happened, my subordinates found that there were many unfamiliar faces outside the consulate, and the British are not hiding it now." ”
"General, that's true, it's still the reason for the drawings." Hidehiko Suzuki said.
He described the situation to Tsuyo Harada, and then looked helpless, "Now the British think that we are the ones who have imposed the restrictions on us, but our people are all stared at by the British, and they have no chance at all, and they have not received any news, so they really don't know the situation." ”
Tsuyo Harada thought for a moment and said: "It seems that our previous judgment was right, there have always been third-party forces interfering in it, these people have sabotaged the British operation on the Notting cruise ship, and now they are directly attacking the British intelligence officer, and they have sabotaged the British twice in a row, I estimate that the drawings are likely to have fallen into their hands." ”
"I think the same way, really in response to the Chinese's words, 'praying mantis catches cicadas, yellow finches behind', the British calculated us, but there are also people staring at them, maybe Americans, maybe Chinese, just bitter us, news is blocked and lagging, it is difficult to make timely responses, it is really powerful, too passive!"
The outside world was turbulent, and all forces stretched out their tentacles to inquire about the news everywhere, Yongfeng naturally learned everything, Scott's disappearance made her mentally uncertain and uneasy.
Scott is the mole that she spent a lot of energy and money to develop, and most of the information about the British side over the years came from Scott, who is one of the most valuable intelligence agents in Yongfeng's hands, and his disappearance makes Yongfeng sad.
What's more, this time to steal the engine drawings, the hope is all on Scott, and now there is an accident, and the $500,000 that is about to arrive will slip away from his hand, and it will be difficult for him to get his hands on it, Yongfeng feels that his heart is dripping blood when he thinks about it.
"Miss, now that our channels are broken, we can't negotiate this business with the Chongqing government, so do we still need to meet with them?" Nie Xin asked in a low voice.
"See you!" Yongfeng nodded and said, at this moment, that Mr. Lin asked to meet again, and said that there was important information to trade, which made Yongfeng full of curiosity.
"This Mr. Lin is our big financier, and he can't afford to offend, and besides, this time they have information to sell us, I want to see what important news it is."
Seeing that Yongfeng agreed to meet, Nie Xin also nodded and said: "Okay, I'll arrange it, it's an eventful time now, we can't be careless, I'll bring more people, just in case." ”
