"Huh? And this kind of thing? It's the first time I've heard of it. Gao Hongcheng heard another unreasonable thing about Li Yixin, and he said in surprise.

"Hehe, there really is such a thing, it happened in the first few months, not long before you came. So, it's a blessing for us to be able to follow Director Li, Director Li, don't look at him usually doesn't hum or ha, in fact, the background is hard. You also saw the situation yesterday morning, that Cai Zhongxin is a newcomer, and the land in this stone town has not been stepped on, so he dares to give Director Li such face, look, just a day later, this matter has taken a completely unexpected turn. This is Director Li setting rules for Cai Zhongxin and teaching him how to behave in the future. Wu Zhihai said with a smile.

After Gao Hongcheng listened to Wu Zhihai's words, he decided to go to Hu Yongqiang to ask what Li Yixin's previous 'glorious deeds' were, and why was this person so strong. And Hu Yongqiang's cover identity is Li Yixin's white gloves in the shopping mall, and it is estimated that he knows the inside story of smuggling tobacco and soil more clearly.

It was also on this day that Li Yue finally came to Stone Town. The journey from Chongqing was difficult, especially when passing through the Line of Actual Control between the Nationalist and Japanese armies.

However, fortunately, he had sufficient time to prepare, and the Zhongtong Shicheng Survey and Statistics Office was still operating normally, and it was not destroyed by the Japanese like the Shicheng Station of the Military Command, so the Zhongtong Headquarters had previously received the original Shicheng Good Citizen Certificate brought back to Chongqing from Shicheng and the signatures and seals on various documents.

According to these things, the technical department of the Central Unified Headquarters forged documents specially forged a set of identity certificates for Li Yue, so that he could smoothly infiltrate Stone City.

Part of the funds brought by Li Yue was used by the Central Government to open a small tea shop in Stone Town, because his current identity is a tea merchant.

After Li Yue arrived in Stone Town, he looked for a house with a front shop and a back residence just like Li Yixin did when he went to Stone Town, and spread out the tea in just a few days. Of course, in order to make his cover identity look real, Li Yue secretly carried a batch of gold bars and also brought a lot of tea.

After all this was done, Li Yue immediately started to take action, and he first sent a joint code to the three backbone members according to the emergency contact information given to him by Deputy Director Xu for the three main backbone members of the Stone Town Survey and Statistics Office.

The backbone of the three Stone Town Investigation and Statistics Offices usually only obey Yuan Shiheng's orders, and each of them leads a part of the sleeper spy work, and there is no direct communication channel with the Central Unification Headquarters. Because there is only one radio station in the entire Stone Town Survey and Statistics Office that can directly communicate with the Central Union Headquarters, and this radio station is in the hands of Yuan Shiheng.

As a result, these people were a little suspicious when they found out that someone was sending a signal that they needed to connect according to the emergency contact method they had reserved, because they knew that this contact method was not used at all, and would only be activated when it was very urgent.

However, according to the current situation of infighting in Stone City, there is no particularly major danger, and Yuan Shiheng is also leading them to work in the same way as usual, and there is nothing abnormal.

Now someone sent a joint code according to the emergency contact method, and these three backbones did not dare to connect with Li Yue because of their suspicions, but instead reported the situation to Yuan Shiheng separately.

Yuan Shiheng was also a little confused after receiving the reports of the three backbones of the Stone Town Investigation and Statistics Office, because these emergency contact methods were not only known to him, that is, the Central Union Headquarters had been recorded.

According to Yuan Shiheng's judgment, this should be the Central Unification Headquarters sending someone to Stone Town to make contact. But what puzzled him a little was that people from the Zhongtong headquarters did not tell him in advance through the radio when they came to the Chongqing headquarters in Stone Town. And logically speaking, if someone comes from the headquarters, the first thing should be to contact him instead of bypassing him to contact those three backbones.

Yuan Shiheng couldn't think of why Deputy Director Xu would send such a person to Stone Town, so he instructed the three key members of the Central Command Stone Town Investigation and Statistics Office not to connect, and at the same time sent a telegram to Deputy Director Xu to report this abnormal situation.

When Deputy Director Xu received Yuan Shiheng's telegram requesting instructions, he couldn't help but doubt the loyalty of the entire Zhongtong Stone Town Investigation and Statistics Office.

Because according to his plan, after Li Yue arrived at Stone Town and sent out the joint code, the three backbone members of the Stone Town Investigation and Statistics Office should unconditionally connect with Li Yue, cut off contact with Yuan Shiheng according to the latest instructions of the headquarters brought by Li Yue, and obey Li Yue's command.

But Yuan Shiheng's telegram made Deputy Director Xu understand one thing, Yuan Shiheng's control over the entire Zhongtong Stone Town Survey and Statistics Office was very strong, and the backbone members actually ignored the emergency contact of the headquarters, but reported to Yuan Shiheng, which was somewhat unexpected to him.

Now that Yuan Shiheng has known about this matter, he specially sent a telegram to inquire, which made Deputy Director Xu's original plan no longer able to be implemented. So Deputy Director Xu could only re-issue new instructions to Yuan Shiheng and Li Yue respectively.

In a call back to Yuan Shiheng, Deputy Director Xu only said that he had sent a special commissioner to Stone Town to prepare for a secret inspection of the work. This is his new initiative, and because all the survey and statistics offices in the occupied areas are isolated behind enemy lines and have poor liaison with the headquarters, he needs to inspect, supervise, and evaluate the effectiveness of the work of the survey and statistics offices in the occupied areas.

However, in the telegram sent to Li Yue, Deputy Director Xu ordered Li Yue to stay in place and no longer contact anyone in the Stone Town Survey and Statistics Office, and at the same time prepare to re-establish a new Stone Town Survey and Statistics Office. Now, he had to start anew, abandoning all the sleeper agents in the original Stone Town Survey and Statistics Office.

Yuan Shiheng suddenly came to his senses after receiving Deputy Director Xu's reply, although Deputy Director Xu gave him a seemingly reasonable reason in the callback, but he knew what Deputy Director Xu was and understood that he was no longer fully trusted by Deputy Director Xu, and Deputy Director Xu only regarded him as a bridge and intermediary for limited cooperation with the Japanese.

Of course, this further made Yuan Shiheng firm in his desire to cooperate with the Japanese, and he even wanted to directly lead the agents of the Stone Town Survey and Statistics Office to defect to the Japanese like Yan Fuzhi.

But it is not so simple to want to take refuge in the Japanese, Yuan Shiheng knows that if he does not have something in his hand that interests the Japanese, even if the Japanese accept his surrender, he will be a dispensable role in the eyes of the Japanese in the future, and he will not be taken seriously at all.
