Chapter 173: A Surprising Discovery
At night, in the small western-style building No. 5 in the French Concession, Liu Zifeng closed the windows, then closed the thick curtains, and after confirming that there was no light coming out, he came to the table again and carefully looked at the two photos that Master Du gave him.
These two photos are a sloppyly dressed "weird old man" and a Japanese consulate spy Hong Xingtai, which don't seem to have much to do with each other. But listening to Master Du, these two people seem to have a certain connection.
Is it that Master Du's judgment is wrong, but Master Du has been staring at them for so long, so he shouldn't have misjudged. When Liu Zifeng thought of this, he still put the two photos together and compared them carefully, and after careful observation, he still made a new discovery.
"This strange old man is obviously disguised!" Liu Zifeng said suddenly.
When Wang Ping heard this, she hurriedly walked over, picked up the photo of the "strange old man" and looked at it carefully, and nodded affirmatively.
"So, who is this strange old man in disguise, and what does he have to do with Hong Xingtai?" Liu Zifeng muttered to himself.
"Could they be a superior-subordinate relationship, that is, it is Hong's spies who are pretending to be strange old men." Wang Ping guessed.
Liu Zifeng didn't squeak, still thinking hard.
Wang Ping continued to compare the photos.
Wang Ping continued: "In my analysis, these two people should be in a gang. ”
"So to speak!" After Liu Zifeng finished speaking, he frowned again and asked: "Between the two of them, could that strange old man be the Japanese spy 'Snow Wolf', and Hong is his accomplice and assistant." ”
Wang Ping listened and interjected: "But 'Sea Breeze' said that the 'Snow Wolf' is a woman, between the ages of twenty and thirty, no matter in terms of age and gender, it is not right!" ”
Liu Zifeng continued: "Could it be that the information of 'Sea Breeze' is wrong! ”
Wang Ping shook her head and said, "Probably not." ”
The two couldn't go any further, but looked at the photo again.
After watching for a while, Wang Ping exclaimed as if she had discovered a new continent: Look, the eyes of the two of them look very similar!
"Really!" Liu Zifeng said and found two pieces of paper to cover their faces, leaving only two pairs of eyes.
Liu Zifeng said to Wang Ping again: "Look at it now, are these two pairs of eyes the same, if they are different, what is the difference?" ”
Wang Ping stared at the two pairs of eyes on the picture and said: "Judging by the naked eye, they don't look any different, like a person!" ”
"Can you tell they're alone?" Liu Zifeng asked tentatively.
"I don't have conclusive evidence yet, it's just a guess. It's speculation, but it's not a complete guess. Wang Ping then pointed to the photo and said: "You see, these two pairs of eyes not only look alike, but also reveal the same insidious and vicious. ”
"Yes, that's right, I've always thought these eyes were a little familiar." Liu Zifeng thought for a while and asked: "The problem is that the Japanese have a lot of power on Drum Island, and even the patrol chief of the Ministry of Industry is afraid of them, why should he disguise it, and how reasonable is the matter?" ”
Wang Ping thought for a while and said: "The 'strange old man' has appeared in the shelter many times, using a false identity as a cover to collect information on anti-Japanese elements. It cannot be said to be a coincidence that he used the true identity of a Japanese spy to arrest people. His purpose in doing this is to facilitate the collection of a large amount of intelligence in a timely manner! ”
Liu Zifeng was silent in thought.
Wang Ping continued: If this person is collecting intelligence, there must be his accomplices in the camp, lurking among the refugees.
"Well, I've thought about this many times, but there is no hard evidence, so this time we must find out the identity of this person and find out their accomplices in the refugee camp." Liu Zifeng said firmly.
Wang Ping continued: "Could their hidden accomplices in the refugee camp be 'snow wolves'?" ”
Liu Zifeng was silent for a moment and then said calmly: "The difference is a millimeter, and the loss is a thousand miles." This is not a trivial matter, and any misjudgment could lead to a huge deviation in the results, and we must conduct further investigation and have sufficient evidence. ”
Wang Ping nodded and said, "At least the scope of our research has been narrowed again." ”
"Hmm!" Liu Zifeng replied, and the pressure in his heart suddenly relaxed a lot.
