Chapter 123: The Price of the Bride (1)
In the intelligence community, agents who plot rebellion and take advantage of each other are called "the price of the bride." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info However, the agent who was plotted against was not called a "bride".
Now, the dilemma facing General Haruki and Captain Yoshino is how to plot against She Manshi, an important agent of the CCP's underground party in Shanghai, obtain information she knows, and get the "bride's price".
No, General Hariki and Captain Yoshino are in a meeting to discuss this problem. It's a meeting, but it's actually just the two of them, and of course, the fewer people who know about it, the better.
Sitting behind his desk, he sunk deep into the large and comfortable leather chair, and said with a smile to Captain Yoshino, who was standing in front of him, "Don't worry, this woman is yours, and she is your bride!" ”
"My bride?" Yoshino was a little confused, but when he thought of the fairy-like and beautiful She Manshi lying on the hospital bed, his heart couldn't help but warm.
"That's right, we want to get her 'bride's price', and you are responsible for this matter, she is naturally your bride!" General Qingqi still said with a smile on his face. His meaning is very clear, I know that you are very interested in this woman, and let you do it, but you have to get the information done!
Of course, Captain Yoshino heard what General Hariki was saying, and he knew that this woman was not easy to deal with, but he couldn't ask for him to take full responsibility for the matter, so he sneered, and didn't answer, just scratching the back of his head with his hand.
He knew Yoshino well as his subordinate, Haruki, who was also a student of him when he was teaching at the "Nomura Intelligence School", and he watched Yoshino grow from a soldier who knew nothing about intelligence to a brilliant agent. In his heart, Haruhi regards Yoshino as his own child, and Yoshino is happy to treat Haruhi as his father. Therefore, among the many agents of the Ume Agency, Haruni only has special love for Yoshino, and Yoshino also has infinite respect for Haruki. The two maintain a relationship that transcends superiors and subordinates and is almost father and son. This is unique among the Mei organs. Qingqi is an extremely suspicious veteran spy who doesn't trust anyone, whether it's his own people or his Chinese lackeys. If there was someone he trusted in the Ume Agency, it must have been, and could only be, Captain Yoshino.
Therefore, as long as it is not particularly urgent, Haruni always faces Yoshino with a kind, kind smile. Of course, he still maintains his usual seriousness and seriousness when assigning tasks.
"How much time do you think it will take to 'convince' her to work with us?" Qingqi's smile looked patient, "A week? ”
"Well...... Yoshino hesitated. In fact, he has been thinking about this question, but he always feels that he has no bottom in his heart.
There are only four ways to deal with enemy agents who are caught: rebellion, killing, exchange, and release.
Any enemy agent who is caught will be useful, and the Mei agency will do everything possible to "convince" the other party to cooperate with him. There are many tools for "persuasion", such as torture, intimidation, fake shooting, planting, money, and beauty can all be used to "persuade" the other party.
If you really can't "convince" the other party, Mei will usually shoot this useless burden. If you happen to have your own agents fall into the hands of the other party, then come to an exchange and exchange your own people back.
Sometimes, if they refuse to cooperate, they can be released outright, and their own people will become suspicious of their safe return after being arrested - the result of suspicion is usually not to be aggravated, so that it will be much easier to turn against them when the time comes.
For Captain Yoshino, using torture to "persuade" She Manshi to cooperate with him was unacceptable. Even if she wasn't so badly injured, he was really "reluctant" to be cruel to her - she was so beautiful and moving, there were always some illusory thoughts swirling in his mind, wanting to achieve his goals in a "peaceful" way - not to hurt She Manshi, but also to get the information she knew.
There is a precedent in the intelligence community for sending an agent to spend time with an enemy agent who has been caught, to develop a spiritual attachment, to soften the opponent's position and ultimately succeed.
That's what Captain Yoshino intended, he wanted to get along with the arrested female agent of the CCP's underground party, She Manshi, day and night, and establish a spiritual attachment, so as to soften the other party's position and finally succeed in the rebellion, so as to achieve the best of both worlds in a "peaceful" way. Sometimes, he even imagined that the result of this day-night relationship would be to make She Manshi fall in love with him—Yoshino could indeed be considered a beautiful man by Japanese standards. But by Chinese standards, he is a little more showy and lacks manly spirit. Despite not being married and not having a regular girlfriend, Yoshino is still very confident in his charms. At least, the few female employees of the Mei Agency admired his appearance and temperament.
"A week may not be enough." Yoshino knew that despite the special care that General Haruhi had taken care of him, there was a limit to the tolerance that his warm smile represented. However, he had thought it over and prepared a good reason.
"Tell me about your plans." Harui knew that Yoshino was essentially an intellectual young man with a lot of ideas, and he must have a reason for saying this.
"She's important!" Yoshino said straight to the point, "Although Li Shiqun's anti-intermediary plan seems to be successful, judging by the fact that she has been able to hide in Shanghai for so long after engaging in the post, there must be someone behind this woman who is helping her, maybe we can start from her to crack the underground party organization of the CCP in Shanghai." ”
Qingqi looked at Yoshino appreciatively, and said in his heart, "Clear thinking, it's not in vain for me to cultivate you." ”
"Therefore, we must not only get the whereabouts of Nakata-kun's secret book from her mouth as soon as possible, but also let her reveal as much as possible the inside story of the underground CCP in Shanghai." Yoshino didn't know how many times he had repeated this opening sentence in his heart, so it was unusually smooth, and then he changed his words, "However, with She's current physical condition, we should not let her use too hasty and drastic measures. With that, he glanced up at Shogun Clearair, who, as he expected, was also casting an inquiring gaze. He stood up triumphantly and continued to talk:
"I consulted Dr. Gurion at Gabriel's Hospital before coming to you, and according to him, Sheh Manshi suffered great damage to her brain tissue and cerebral blood vessels due to a severe head injury. If it weren't for the fact that Dr. Chen Dezhao happened to be a world-class neurosurgeon, She Manshi would probably be vegetative or severely brain-dead by now — an intelligence equivalent to that of a three- or four-year-old baby.
