Chapter 368: Underestimating the Enemy
For the next three days, Zhang Chi only slept two or three hours a day, patrolled more than a dozen monitoring points every day, and listened to his advice, Secretary Wang obtained Mao Renfeng's approval and ordered some agents to disguise themselves as policemen.
On the evening of the 16th, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening when Zhang Chi returned to the temporary station, and Secretary Wang persuaded: "Dedication is right, but you can't sleep endlessly, how can your body eat?" Don't forget that you were electrocuted the other day. I'll ask them to buy you some supper, and you can eat something and go to bed. β
Zhang Chi sighed and replied: "It's only you, and you still care about me, alas, I hope I can complete the task smoothly, otherwise...... I have also figured it out in the past two days, Zhou Chengbin has indeed made many miraculous achievements in the past two years, and it is reasonable for Mr. Mao to reuse and protect him, but I am just not convinced...... Lao Wang, I have made an in-depth analysis, there must be an undercover agent in the Shanghai branch who has been cooperating with Zhou Chengbin's actions and is in an important position, right? If it were me, maybe it would have been better than him, don't forget, the third column was wiped out, several captains died, Guo Xuan also died in Shanghai, and Mr. Mao's trip to northern Jiangsu was also nine deaths. β
Secretary Wang's biggest strength is to keep his mouth shut, he replied with certainty: "You think too much, there is no such person, the bureau headquarters has sent people undercover several times, Kong Wenqing, Meng Xiaojie, and finally all ......"
Zhang Chi was suspicious, thinking that maybe it was the information provided by Meng Xiaojie before he was exposed? I still wanted to ask, but the phone rang, and Secretary Wang picked up the phone: "I am, who are you?" Captain Zhang is also here, what? That's great! Finally there is a harvest, how is the current situation? I see, okay. β
Hearing that there was a harvest, Zhang Chi had already stood up, and Secretary Wang said: "Lao Zhang, the call is from Tang Jitian, Ni Xin appeared at the long-distance bus station in Nan'an District with an attachΓ©, and took the last long-distance bus from the hot springs, and Tang Jitian has already sent three plainclothes to follow him." β
Zhang Chi's heart jumped twice, he forced himself to compose, and the fatigue in his eyes was all gone, replaced by the excitement of the hunter finally discovering the prey, he spread out the map, and said, "Three people are following?" I heard that Ni Xin is a very good professional agent, and he is not safe, and there will be a curfew in the city after twelve o'clock, before that, he will definitely settle down, gather the team, set off as a whole, and go to these four hotels to set up an ambush in advance. β
Secretary Wang replied: "You are still in charge of the action, listen to you, I will go and gather people." β
After Ni Xin and Quan Kanhu checked into the JETCO Hotel, Quan Kanhu saw that no one was paying attention, and quietly slipped from his room to Ni Xin's room, which was two rooms apart.
Ni Xin said: "Lao Quan, you go to see Yang Zili tomorrow, he has just been promoted to the director of the Shapingba District Police Bureau, and through him to transport the batch of materials we brought, don't tell him in advance, don't put too much pressure on him once, and when the materials are in place, let him try to pick up people." I'm going to meet with the person in charge of the spy station. β
Quan Kanhu replied: "Don't worry, the special pass signed by Yang Zili, who stayed on purpose last time, will come in handy." Director, you said that Director Li asked us to contact his students, how sure do you feel that this person will be accepted? β
"It's hard to say, I thought about it, and in order to be safe, I still have to take two steps. Go to bed early, by the way, tomorrow you climb over that low wall from the backyard and walk from the restaurant next door. β
Quan Kanhu smiled and said: "Director, you are too cautious, this journey is very smooth, people don't know it, except for the two of us, the people who infiltrated Chongqing this time were all sent by General Yingzuo, and the news that we led the team to Chongqing, the entire 76th is only known to Director Li, what else can happen?" β
Ni Xin smiled: "The director often teaches: For an agent, only not too cautious, not too cautious." β
Zhang Chi led people to the Yintai Hotel, Tang Jitian greeted him forty or fifty meters, and said in a low voice: "Captain Zhang, I saw with my own eyes that Ni Xin's pseudonym Shi Hongchang lived in the room on the first floor by the door, and I also know the person he brought, his name is Quan Kanhu, and he is also No. 76, and his specific position is not clear." They pretended not to know each other, and Kwon Suga rented a room in the middle. I have already informed Yu Haochen, he led someone to block the back door, and now there are sixteen of our agents here, I don't believe he can escape! When I followed him and cracked the spy network of the Japanese, I cut him with a thousand knives! β
Zhang Chi wanted to explain that Mr. Mao instructed Ni Xinping to return to Shanghai safely, but after thinking about it: Mao Renfeng must be afraid that he will not be able to completely destroy the Japanese spy network, and wait until the task is completed, and then persuade Mr. Mao to arrest Ni Xin, what are the problems at that time? Thinking of this, he ordered: "Don't alarm him yet, the matter of cracking the spy network will fall on him." You, Yu Haochen, and I have all met with Ni Xin, and I have already ordered Secretary Wang to lead the team, each disguised as a hawker, a coachman, a newsstand stall owner, etc., to fully monitor this hostel. Two cars with civilian license plates were also transferred. There are only two roads to this hostel, both of which are controlled by us. β
At five o'clock in the morning, Quan Kanhu got up quietly in the dark, and he had to walk five or six kilometers to find Yang Zili before he left home.
At seven o'clock, Ni Xin also walked out of the hostel, Chongqing was another foggy day, he found a wonton stall to sit down for breakfast, the stall owner was cooking wontons for the other two customers, Ni Xin asked for a bowl of wontons, two baked cakes, while waiting while habitually observing the surrounding terrain.
The wontons of the two people who came earlier than him were cooked first, and the two people didn't seem to know each other, bowing their heads and eating their own. A few minutes later, Ni Xin's wontons were also cooked, and he took a pair of chopsticks and ate them.
Halfway through eating, the two people finished eating, paid their bills and left, Ni Xin swept away the banknotes paid by the two people at a glance, the color of the banknotes paid by the two people was obviously different, Ni Xin was not familiar with the legal tender circulating in the national control area, and he couldn't see it clearly in the fog. He glanced at the table again, and the two of them clearly only needed a bowl of ravioli, why were the prices different?
Maybe it's on credit, maybe it's a discount for old customers, maybe it's a different quality, someone adds eggs, someone doesn't. Ni Xin didn't take it too seriously, after eating a few bites, he habitually tried a sentence: "Fifteen baked cakes, forty-one bowls of wontons, a total of seventy, give you one hundred, find money." β
The stall owner did not have any objections, accepted the money, and found three fiat currencies with a face value of ten yuan, Ni Xin took it and walked back to the hotel. At this point, he was almost certain that something was wrong: the price he quoted to the stall owner was the same as when he came to Chongqing in June last year, and inflation in the Kuomintang area, if nothing else, the price should have at least doubled in a year. In a small business, there are only a few things to sell, how can such a big mistake be made?
What went wrong? He and Quan Kanhu have just arrived in Chongqing, and they haven't had time to do anything, the old opponents of the military command are all in Shanghai, and there are not many people in Chongqing who know them, could it be that Quan Kanhu, who has been lurking in Chongqing for several years, has been recognized? No, for safety, the two changed cars repeatedly, and it was late at night when they arrived in Chongqing, if there was a problem when Quan Kanhu went to contact Yang Zili in the early morning, how did the opponent know that there was another person in the hostel? That wonton stall was obviously not set up in a hurry, did the military commander move so quickly?
The biggest problem now is how to get out, and the rest can be left for later. Are the people who spy on themselves military? If so, why not get your hands dirty? Do you want to find contacts on your own and expand your results? If this is the case, the military commander would have known that he was coming to Chongqing and the purpose of coming to Chongqing, but only Li Shiqun and Heiichiro Ono knew about this matter, and Quan Suga was also notified a quarter of an hour before departure. The military commander deciphered the code? It's impossible, if that's the case, the radio station of the Chongqing spy network will be exposed, just arrest it directly, or just wait for the rabbit at the joint, there is no need to spend a lot of time monitoring yourself.
The top priority at the moment is to cancel the joint, try to get out, and it is not too late to go back to Shanghai to find out how the leak was made. But how can this be done? Unlike ordinary people, Ni Xin never panics at every critical juncture, and the path will become clearer than usual. Didn't the military commander plan to cast a long line to catch a big fish? This can be taken advantage of. He quickly made up his mind. He destroyed the letters he had brought with him, checked his guns, and walked out of the hostel's doors.
At eight o'clock, Ni Xin walked to the long-distance bus station in Nan'an District, bought two tickets to the hot spring in an hour, then bought a newspaper, and found a seat in a prominent position at the entrance of the simple waiting room.
When Kwon returned to the Yintai Hotel, he saw the danger sign left by Ni Xin: a very inconspicuous English letter W on the door of the room, and came to the station according to the prior agreement.
Quan Kanhu came over and sat down, and Ni Xin said: "The military commander has discovered us." β
Quan Kanhu was taken aback, Ni Xin briefly introduced the situation, and Quan Kanhu sighed: "What's the matter?" Are you too careful? Alas, if you find something wrong, you should try to get out immediately, what do I do? Now what? What should Yang Zili do? β
"When you left the hostel in the early hours of the morning, you walked over the wall, maybe not being followed, so he was safe. But when you return to the hostel, you must have been followed, and you must have left it to your fate, and now you can't take care of him. Don't worry, their main target is me, you listen to me......"
Kwon Kan-ho hesitated: "Are you in danger of doing this, or am I ......?"
Ni Xin interrupted him: "There's no time to argue, their main target is me, and you are familiar with the roads in Chongqing, you will immediately go and inform the person in charge of the spy network after you get out: cancel the joint plan and keep silent." Also, inform the newly sent secret service team of General Yingzuo, who is on standby at Jinfo Mountain, to lie dormant and wait, and not to infiltrate Chongqing for the time being. You are also waiting for me there, if I don't rush over within twenty-four hours, you retreat with people-" Seeing that Quan Kanhu still wanted to persuade, Ni Xinzheng said: "This is an order!" β
Zhang Chi also received a call from his subordinates to report the situation: "Captain Zhang, Ni Xin and the surname Quan are both at the long-distance bus station in Nan'an District, and Ni Xin bought two long-distance tickets to the hot springs at nine o'clock. β
It's great, Kwon Kan-ho doesn't know when and how to leave the hostel, and now this doesn't matter. Going to a hot spring? Is it to connect with the contact person of the spy network there? He ordered: "At a quarter past nine I will rush to the dispatch room of the long-distance station, where I will wait for your news. You must keep up with Ni Xin, if conditions permit, call me at any time. β
"Don't worry, more than 20 people are on Chongqing's own territory, and if you can't keep up with the two of them, don't be embarrassed alive."
Zhang Chi instructed uneasily: "There is one more point: don't startle the snakes, let them find that someone is following." β
As soon as he got off the phone, Secretary Wang was not very relieved, and said: "I haven't met with either of them, I'll go to the long-distance bus station first, and when they get on the long-distance bus, you will come over." β
