Chapter 16: Regeneration

Wen Yuanmou couldn't help but nod in admiration while listening, and said, "Then according to your meaning, won't we just arrest that Northeast family?" After entering our prison, are you afraid that he will not recruit him? ”

"Don't worry." Feng Muhua decisively stopped him, and said thoughtfully: "It's not difficult to get a confession, but if that family is not it, it will be over, we will only wake up the Japanese spies completely by doing so, and we still have to be cautious in this matter." By the way, where does the man work? How are you usually a person? How are relationships? ”

Feng Muhua did this out of his usual caution, after all, the family is only very suspicious at present, and he can't be sure if it's not, if it is not, if they arrest someone like this, the Japanese spy will definitely know and abscond.

Wen Yuanmou only checked the residents of Erlong Lane today, and Erlong Lane is only the most likely place for Japanese spies to hide, but it does not mean that he must be there, and there are possibilities nearby, so he must be cautious at this time, and he must not startle the snake.

Wen Yuanmou couldn't help but feel a little discouraged when he saw that Feng Muhua did not agree to be arrested, but he still would not go against Feng Muhua's intentions in this kind of matter, so he replied: "That person works as an accountant in a trading company, and his income is not bad. It's just that he is not very disciplined, always looking for flowers and willows outside, and has quarreled with his wife a few times for this, and his relationship with the neighborhood is not particularly harmonious, and there are conflicts with several families. ”

"What?" Feng Muhua looked at Wen Yuanmou with some disappointment and said, "Is what you said true?" ”

"Of course it's true, why am I lying to you?" Wen Yuanmou spread his hands.

A look of disappointment instantly appeared on Feng Muhua's face, and he said, "It seems that this person is not right." ”

"Why?"

"Espionage is a very dangerous job, generally people engaged in espionage activities are very self-disciplined, in the case of a wife, will not go to look for flowers and ask willows, even if the so-called wife is his assistant, but you want a couple of men and women to live under the same roof for so many years, what can you keep? Moreover, spies are most afraid of attracting attention, so they are most afraid of causing trouble, and generally do not quarrel with their neighbors, so as not to cause trouble, according to what you said, the Northeast family should not be a spy. ”

Wen Yuanmou was completely deflated when he heard this, and dared to feel that he had been busy for a long time in vain, and said with a bitter face: "Then according to your meaning, the spy is definitely not in Erlong Lane, so where will he be?" What do we do next? ”

Feng Muhua saw his thoughts, smiled, and comforted: "Second brother, you don't have to be frustrated, your work today is still fruitful, at least it proves that the spy is not in Erlong Lane." That area is the most populous in Erlong Lane, and it is also the most difficult to check, and after it is discharged, our next work will be much easier. ”

Taking a sip of water, Feng Muhua continued: "I judge that this spy is very smart, and he also knows that the location of the signal point and dead letter box he designed is easily reminiscent of him living in Erlong Lane, so he simply doesn't live there." But even if he doesn't live there, he certainly won't live too far, and the next thing we need to do is check the area. I have a hunch that we're getting closer and closer to that person. Second brother, you have a good rest tonight, and try to find out tomorrow. ”

"Good. I'll arrange for someone to do it tomorrow, no, now. Wen Yuanmou stood up as he spoke, and said, "It's been too long every night, and there are many dreams at night." ”

Feng Muhua was a little embarrassed to let his second uncle spin around, but he also knew that time was tight and there was no room for delay, so he stopped pretending to be polite to him, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, second brother." However, don't let go of the six households you have screened out, and arrange for someone to keep an eye on them, just in case. ”

"Got it." Wen Yuanmou said a word and went out, he is also a hot-blooded young man, now is the time to serve the country and do business, how can it be too hard?

Wen Yuanmou was unwilling to delay, so he picked up the phone and dialed Sun Dafu, saying: "Uncle Sun, Mu Hua said that the six households are not the right number, let us expand the scope of investigation a little more, and check all the households near Erlong Lane." ”

"Got it." Sun Dafu's slightly old voice came from there, saying, "I'm an old bone, I'm going to go crazy with you young people this time." With that, he hung up the phone.

At the same time, in a house not far northeast of Erlong Lane, three men were sitting quietly under the candlelight, and the atmosphere in the house was extremely quiet and depressing.

One of the fat, older middle-aged men frowned and said: "This time is really dangerous, if it weren't for the timely warning from the peak, we are afraid that we have fallen into the trap of the Chinese." ”

Another emaciated young man said, "Mitsui-kun, will the Chinese find us?" Should we avoid it? ”

"Yaga!" Mitsui Hiroki, the leader of this spy team, was furious when he heard this, and said, "Kobayashi-kun, are you going to panic just this little news?" That mole didn't know any information about us, so why did the Chinese find us? You know, their espionage work has just started, and they are very weak, if you are even afraid of such an opponent, then simply don't work for His Majesty the Emperor! ”

"Hey!" Kobayashi Miki lowered his head in shame and said, "I'm sorry, Mitsui-kun, I shouldn't have said that." So what do we do now? ”

Mitsui Hiroki is a veteran spy, he just said that just to stabilize the morale of the army, but in his heart, he faintly had some ominous premonitions, I can't say why, it comes from the feeling of a spy, especially a veteran spy, frowned and thought for a while, and finally made up his mind and said: "For the sake of insurance, we don't want to go out recently." Kobayashi-kun, you go and hide the radio station now, give me the codebook, and I will carry it with me. In addition, the fire in the house cannot be stopped, and in case of the worst, nothing can be said to allow the Chinese to get the code book! From now on, neither of you can leave your body with your weapons! ”

At this time, the safest way is to burn the codebook, but Mitsui Hiroki still doesn't plan to do this after thinking about it for a long time, because although it is safe, it also means that they will not be able to use the radio to get in touch with the headquarters in the near future, and if there is an emergency, it is easy to make mistakes. This warning was transmitted by the headquarters through the radio broadcast, and without the code book, they would not have been able to decipher the information from the headquarters and would not have been able to take measures.
