In the torture room, Liu Zezhi sat there in a daze, and Li Xuehui asked, "What's wrong with you?" Have a cup of tea, this is still the new Shifeng Longjing you gave me last time. Li Xuehui secretly said that this Liu Zezhi and Ni Xin are really not the same type of people, and they have joys, angers, sorrows and joys on their faces.

Liu Zezhi sighed: "There are some things I can't figure out. Lao Li, you said that I was ordered to follow for a month, and finally caught the ironclad evidence of Chen Zhaozhi's arms smuggling. I don't dare to expect rewards for meritorious deeds, but how did it become like this? The director suddenly ordered Asano-kun to arrest Zhang Xiaodan, and the one named Yang Jun, why is this? ”

Li Xuehui also asked strangely: "If you don't say it, I don't dare to ask, why did the military command Shanghai Station get involved again?" ”

"I don't quite understand. Originally, I thought that Chen Zhaozhi colluded with the military commander and betrayed the interests of the Japanese Empire, but later the military commander found out that we had caught Chen Zhaozhi, and he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he simply killed people and killed him. Now it seems that there may be something else, but what is going on? I can't figure it out, you know? ”

Li Xuehui thought for a while and said with a smile: "You can't figure it out, I'm a rough person, I can't figure it out, and I don't bother to bother with this brain, let's do whatever Director Li says." ”

"You're right, after a review, you'll figure it out. I hope it wasn't caused by Zhang Xiaodan, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain it to Lao Zhao. Hey, there is one thing you may not know: Lao Zhao, the heart is high. Didn't Captain Tian die in the line of duty? He always wants to make some contributions......"

It turned out that Zhao Jingdong still had this thought, Li Xuehui was very surprised, approached Liu Zezhi and said, "Really? This Lao Zhao, in fact, is not better than anything else to be his manager? By the way, where did Lao Zhao go? And Secretary Ni, no, it should be called Director Ni now, are they together? Do you know? ”

Liu Zezhi smiled and replied, "I know, but I can't sue you, but I guess I'll be able to say it soon...... Oops, it's bad, there's a listening here, and if the director knows that the two of us are talking about these sensitive issues in private, we'll be scolded again. ”

Li Xuehui stuck out his tongue: "I don't come to this place much, I forgot about this stubble." You okay? The interrogation has not started again, who is idle and has nothing to do, listen to our small talk, and report to the director if he is full. Don't scare yourself. Gotta talk about something else, I heard you're getting married? ”

"Who did you listen to? Who am I married? Who made this rumor......

Asano pushed the door in and asked, "I have already brought the prisoner back, Director Li has arrived, and he wants to try the case in person, are you ready?" ”

Liu Zezhi and Li Xuehui hurriedly got up to greet each other, and Li Shiqun walked in, followed by Duan Wentao. Liu Zezhi said: "Director, everything is ready." ”

Li Shiqun sat in the position of the chief judge and ordered: "Secretary Liu, you be my assistant." Asano-kun, go out. Team Leader Duan, escort Zhang Xiaodan up. "The interrogation of Zhang Xiaodan inevitably involves Yicheng Trading Company, and Li Shiqun naturally does not want the Japanese to be present.

Zhang Xiaodan, who was handcuffed, was escorted up by Duan Wentao and two thugs. Zhang Xiaodan, who didn't know what was going on, was frightened and uneasy in his heart, and forced his composure on the surface. The torture equipment in the torture room, the smell of blood, and the speckled blood stains on the walls, all made him feel that something was wrong. Quietly looked at the people in the torture room, only Liu Zezhi was quite familiar, squeezed out a smile, and nodded to Liu Zezhi's flattery, which was regarded as a greeting. Liu Zezhi pretended not to see it, and lowered his head to sort out a few official letters used for recording.

Liu Zezhi's reaction made Zhang Xiaodan's heart even more bottomless, his legs trembled involuntarily, his pale face became sallow, and cold sweat covered his forehead.

Liu Zezhi's heart was very uneasy: What kind of thing can Li Shiqun personally preside over the interrogation? If it was because of the framing of the General Administration of Political Security and collusion with the military command of the Shanghai Station, and Ying Zuo Zhenzhao saw the flaw, why didn't Ying Zuo Zhenzhao come? After Asano led people to arrest Zhang Xiaodan and Yang Jun with one click, he intuitively told him that something had happened. It's been almost two years, and the one thing he has done the most and the most attentive is to figure out Li Shiqun's thoughts. The knowledge of this opponent in some ways exceeds the knowledge of oneself.

Liu Zezhi recalled all the details of this incident scene by scene in his mind, and he realized: After the explosion of Chongqing Kangci Pharmaceutical Factory, Dai Li ordered Zhou Chengbin to try to build another penicillin production line, which is an impossible task, and obeying Boss Dai's order has long become Zhou Chengbin's subconscious choice. Maybe it was because he was forced by an invisible force that he and Zhou Chengbin were in a mess.

He tried to jump out of this bureau and re-examine this matter from the standpoint of an outsider, and a very important problem that had been ignored before surfaced in front of him: Tanaka Shengrong was lurking in the headquarters of the Chongqing Military Command Bureau, and at that time, even if Li Shiqun, Tian Chengxi and others were all rebel generals of the military command, No. 76 still had to use Tanaka Shengei to inquire about the news of the military command, that is to say, No. 76 did not go undercover in the headquarters of the Military Command Bureau at that time. Ni Xin and Zhao Jingdong have never been to Chongqing, nor are they rebel generals in the military, they sneaked to Chongqing to carry out tasks, Zhao Jingdong is just right, Ni Xin has a great relationship with Ono Heiichiro, and Li Shiqun also seems to have a special unknown relationship, if he is not more than fifty percent sure, how can he be allowed to die?

The director of Kangci Pharmaceutical Factory is Meng Xiaojie, Zhou Chengbin recognizes the ability of this former subordinate, and has praised him twice in front of him, and he can get Zhou Chengbin's praise, this person is by no means general.

Ni Xin disappeared from No. 76 to the vicious explosion at the Kangci Pharmaceutical Factory, less than a month. Subtracting the time on the road, in just more than ten days, for Chongqing, for the military commanders, Ni Xin and Zhao Jingdong were blackened, what magical powers could plan, execute, and evacuate without anyone's cooperation, and every link was almost perfect. replaced himself and Zhou Chengbin, and asked himself that he definitely didn't have this ability. Unless...... Inside and out......

Could it be that No. 76 has developed an undercover agent with a high status in the military command? Who is this person?

The last time they met, Zhou Chengbin made a bureau with his own business council, and misled No. 76 and the Japanese military commander with a secret telegram that there was a plan to send high-level officials to northern Jiangsu, but the Shanghai station bluntly admonished, and the plan had to be canceled for safety.

The idea is good, and this method has also been used in Shanghai Station, and it has been successful more than once. One was a day-by-day operation, misleading Heiichiro Ono into believing that there was an undercover agent in the Japanese army headquarters, and transferred William Smith to No. 76; once borrowed a knife and hoeed rape and asked for Li Minghua's life. Another time was to divert the tiger from the mountain, giving Zhou Chengbin and the third column, who were heavily besieged, a ray of life. The question is what Guo Xuan can do, Zhou Chengbin will definitely be able to do? Will it be self-defeating?

Liu Zezhi broke out in a cold sweat, if No. 76 became suspicious, and the undercover agent lurking in the headquarters of the Chongqing Bureau really saved Zài, would he follow the vine and learn that Mao Renfeng was about to come to northern Jiangsu? Mao Renfeng is the number two person in the military command, in charge of general affairs, he is arrested, and the blow to the military commander will be fatal! He picked up his teacup, took a few sips of water, and warned himself that he must not lose his temper.

He must cooperate with Zhou Chengbin to protect Mao Renfeng's safety at any cost, even if it is at the cost of his own life, this is his responsibility. However, if he wants to make a difference, the premise is that he is not exposed, and he cannot even be suspected by Li Shiqun.

Chen Zhaozhi's smuggling of arms, he was too deeply involved, if Li Shiqun became suspicious, the first suspect would be him. In the past, maybe there was a chance to slowly try to clear yourself, but what now? Li Shiqun asked Li Xuehui to come to the torture room with him to prepare, and ordered him not to leave, nor to contact anyone, did he become suspicious? became suspicious and let himself be an assistant, which was tantamount to letting Zhang Xiaodan and Yang Jun confront him face to face, and taking the opportunity to observe everyone's appearance.

Li Shiqun looked at Zhang Xiaodan, he didn't speak for a long time, the atmosphere in the torture room was stagnant and gloomy, under his sharp and gloomy gaze, he looked like he was not afraid of heaven and earth on weekdays, arrogant and domineering, but in fact, Zhang Xiaodan, who was fierce and inward-looking, collapsed, his legs were weak, and he fell to his knees: "Director Li, I haven't done anything to be sorry for the Japanese Imperial Army, you must believe me, I want to serve the Imperial Army in my dreams...... Director Li, I am Manager Zhao's person, and Manager Zhao is your person...... Secretary Liu, you know me, but you want to say a few fair words for me......"

Li Shiqun smiled coldly with disdain, and Liu Zezhi opened his mouth to teach: "Look at your little bit of talent!" What is this place? Can you afford to mess around? Reply to Director Li's words well, otherwise no one will be able to save you! ”

"Yes, yes, Director Li, you ask, I will tell the truth."

Only then did Li Shiqun ask, "Are you Zhang Xiaodan?" Did you sue Zhao Jingdong for Chen Zhaozhi's arms smuggling? How did Liu Zezhi know about this news? ”

"Yes, I am Zhang Xiaodan. Back to Director Li, your old man's words: This news is my sue to Zhao Jing...... Zhao Jingdong's, Zhao Jingdong said that he didn't know if you intended to intervene in the investigation, so he wanted to say hello to Liu Zezhi first and listen to his opinion. So that time Liu Zezhi came to the company, Zhao Jingdong left him for dinner, Liu Zezhi had just died of his younger brother and was in a bad mood, so he invited him to dinner. Liu Zezhi's purpose seems to be to prevent Zhao Jingdong from sending wreaths, and then have dinner together, so he talked about it...... I asked for four dishes for dinner that day, and I wanted to drink...... Zhao Jingdong said that he had to find a way to make meritorious contributions, and then he had a chance to take over Tian Chengxi's position...... I sued him, and Zhao Jingdong also rewarded me......" Zhang Xiaodan was afraid that what he said would not be detailed, repeating it back and forth upside down, and speaking incoherently. Li Shiqun couldn't help frowning.

Liu Zezhi saw that Li Shiqun was displeased, and came forward to interrupt him: "Okay! Pick it up and say it's important. ”

Zhang Xiaodan hurriedly replied: "Yes, it is important to pick it up." Say...... What the? What matters? Secretary Liu, could you please advise...... Director Li, let's ask. ”

Li Shiqun smiled disdainfully, how could Zhao Jingdong use such a thing? He continued: "Where did you get this news again?" ”

"It was Yang Jun who sued me, he said that it was his little brother in the rivers and lakes, a bag inquired, and I overheard it, originally that person, his boss wanted to do it with Chen Zhaozhi, and then Chen Zhaozhi dumped them......"

Li Shiqun interrupted his chatter impatiently: "Who did you tell Zhao Jingdong about going to Chongqing?" ”

"I didn't dare to tell outsiders, Director Li, I'm not an ignorant person, I told Secretary Liu twice, once ...... By the way, is it the day when the brothers are posthumously recommended, it seems to be June 20th? Yes, that day. Another time was two days ago. The first time he pretended not to hear, and the second time he reprimanded me for not telling me any more nonsense and divulging secrets. In fact, how can I talk nonsense to outsiders? Secretary Liu is his own person, Secretary Liu, you know me, you want to say a fair word for me......"

Li Shiqun waved his hand and said, "Enough!" Duan Wentao, send someone to escort him up first. Bring Yang Jun up. ”

Zhang Xiaodan's words were heard in Li Shiqun's ears, confirming that Liu Zezhi had said that he had speculated that Zhao Jingdong might go to Chongqing with Ni Xin to carry out a mission. The successful implementation of the operation to mend the sky proves that a limited number of insiders are reliable.

The same words were heard in Liu Zezhi's ears, but they made him blame himself. After finishing the Dharma that day, he indulged in the grief of losing his hands and feet, unable to extricate himself, ignoring such important information, Liu Wu's spirit in the sky, he was also deeply disappointed in such a brother who harmed the public with his own interests and did not know the righteousness
