Chapter 374: Xiaobao's Lesson 1
The next morning, Jacques Zelski went to work as usual. His job is to inspect the boom signal on the Binsui line from the train station along the road. If there is a problem with the signal, it is easy to have an accident while the train is moving, or at least a mess.
After checking a crossing where the road and the railroad intersected, Jakozelski stood in front of an arm plate signal at the crossing and noticed a chalk arrow on the side of the signal.
Jakozelsky hurried to the next signal. Another arrow appeared on the side of this arm plate signal!
Jacques Zelsky didn't say a word at this time, just threw the toolbox on his body into the grass on the side of the railway, turned around and left.
He now has to rush back to his railway dormitory to do the final cleaning, eliminate any suspicions, and then abscond through secret channels.
Two hours later, Jacques Zelsky, wearing a top hat and a suit, shaved off his beard and a new look, was walking down the street carrying a delicate suitcase. With a smile on his face, he threw a letter into the roadside mailbox and disappeared into the crowd.
On Liaoyang Street in Nangang, there is a not-so-conspicuous business called Okada & Co. Twenty or thirty people come in and out every day. Every day at noon, a truck brings a sack here.
This seemingly ordinary commercial house is actually the location of the postal inspection team of the Binjiang Provincial Security Bureau. Every day, the hundreds of letters sent and sent in Harbin are checked here one by one.
Jacques Zelsky's letter in the morning was delivered here at noon the next day. At night, it was opened and viewed by the people of the postal inspection class by technical means. Then it was quickly delivered to the desk of Zenjiro Kageyama, the secretary of the Security Bureau.
Zenjiro Kageyama immediately called Akiyoshi, the head of the Security Bureau's Espionage Unit.
"Thoroughly investigate the source of this letter and the circumstances of the recipient on it." Zenjiro Kageyama ordered.
"Yes," Akiyoshi took the letter and turned away.
Xiaobao returned home that night and was surprised to see that Xiao Lin Xun was also here.
"Why are you here?" Xiaobao asked in surprise.
The proprietress suddenly popped out from behind.
"I brought her today. A girl's family is lonely and lives in such a big room alone, and it's almost the New Year, so I brought her here. The proprietress hugged Xiao Lin Xun's shoulders affectionately and said to Xiao Bao.
"How do you know where Kobayashi lives?" Xiaobao asked curiously.
"I went to Aunt Kono's house this morning to ask." The proprietress blushed a little when she said this.
Xiaobao didn't care. Go straight back to your room and rest.
The proprietress affectionately took Kobayashi Xun's hand and went upstairs to sleep like a sister. Obviously, there are still a few empty rooms, but the proprietress has to share the bed with Xiao Lin Xun. The reason is that two people can chat together to relieve boredom.
Xiaobao lay in bed thinking about what he saw at night. The Soviet Union really had a lot of intelligence teams in Harbin, and he accidentally met one.
I have to go to Zhang Fengguang to tell him about this matter tomorrow.
When Xiaobao got up the next day, Qi Erye and Xiaolin Xun were gone. Second Master Qi went out for a walk after eating. Kobayashi Xun went to the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army.
Only the proprietress was left in the house to give Xiao Bao a meal with a proud face. She was proud of what she had done yesterday. She finally figured out that she couldn't kick Xiao Lin out but let her live at home.
Let Xiao Lin Xun be under her nose all the time. If you let that bastard see it, you can't eat it, and you can't eat it, so he's going to die!
Xiaobao didn't pay attention to the smug face of the proprietress at all, and he ran out after eating with a snort. Ulyanova told him yesterday to let him go to the restaurant earlier and tell her what he had observed last night.
"So Jacques Zelsky went straight back to the railway dormitory last night?" Ulyanova asked rhetorically.
"Yes, I followed him last night until I was about to get to the gate of the railway dormitory before I turned around and went home." Xiaobao replied. Naturally, he could not tell Ulyanova what he saw last night.
"Just watch for a few more days. I don't believe him, he doesn't go anywhere else. Ulyanova said without discouragement.
"Why do you have to go back to the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army? Isn't that nice now? I also want the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department to forget about me and never look for me on a mission again. Xiaobao persuaded.
"You can tell me how much money you need, and write a report every month to fool the above. Three days of fishing here and two days of drying nets, who in the restaurant dares to say about you? Xiaobao then persuaded.
"When I found out about Jakoz Zelsky, I didn't report it to the authorities right away, hoping to prove once and for all that he was a nail sent by the Soviet Union." Ulyanova said.
"If the intelligence of the Kwantung Army found out after investigation that he was not a Soviet intelligence officer, I would have little credit. Even if it turns out that he was an intelligence officer of the USSR, my credit is not big enough. I must have ironclad evidence that Jakozelsky was a Soviet intelligence agent, such as a liaison or a radio station. That way I can go back to the Ministry of Intelligence with my head held high. Ulyanova said stubbornly.
"Face is so important? Sooner or later, you will be killed by losing face. It's good to live a comfortable life on the sly. Xiaobao said bitterly.
For the next three days, Jakozelsky did not appear in the restaurant. Ulyanova was a little panicked. When she went to the railway dormitory to inquire herself, she learned that Jakoz Zelsky had been missing for four days, and no one knew where he had gone.
Jakozelski must have sensed something unusual and absconded.
Ulyanova suddenly turned into an ant on a hot pan and fidgeted. If the intelligence of the Kwantung Army knew that a Soviet intelligence officer had escaped due to her mistakes, then a severe punishment would have awaited her. The thought of this made Ulyanova shudder.
Especially if in the end, Qian Xiaobao also found out that Jakoz Zelsky had absconded, would he report to the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army? If that were the case, she would be more passive. Because it was her stubborn decision to wait until Jacques Zelsky's evidence was found to report it upwards.
The more Ulyanova thought about it, the more scared she became. In the end, she decided to strike first and reported to the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army in front of Xiaobao. Thinking of this, Ulyanova rushed out of the restaurant and rushed to the building of the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army.
Da Xiyan listened to Ulyanova's return with a gloomy face.
"You mean that when you were relieved that Jakos Zelsky might be a Soviet intelligence agent, you were the first to tell Qian Xiaobao. Was it he who advised you to wait until you found out that Jakos Zelsky was the hard evidence of Soviet intelligence officers? And now Jakozelsky is nowhere to be seen? Oki asked.
"Yes!" Ulyanova replied without hesitation.
