Chapter 121 No Evidence Required
"For Japanese spies, there's no need for any evidence."
The director said coldly that he agreed very much with Chu Lingyun's point of view. As long as I suspect that you are a Japanese spy, I must take measures against you.
It has always been Virgo's style to rather kill the wrong person than let him go.
If Chu Lingyun hadn't found out that Zhu Lihua was a traitor this time, I'm afraid the other six people in the equipment department would have been buried with Zhu Lihua.
The other people in the Equipment Department had no idea that Chu Lingyun had invisibly saved their lives.
"Now that Chu Lingyun has arrived in Nanjing, with his style and acumen, I believe it won't be long before all the Japanese spies in Nanjing will be wiped out."
Secretary Qi added a sentence at the right time, and the director was indeed very happy to hear it.
It was Chu Lingyun who cleared out the Japanese spies in Nanjing, but he was the biggest contributor, after all, he was the chief officer of the Military Intelligence Department.
The people above only look at the results, and all the achievements made by the Military Intelligence Department will be attributed to him.
"Limin, go check how Zhu Lihua got into this place, who brought her in, and who was the person who examined her in the first place."
The director suddenly gave an order, and Secretary Qi immediately bowed, accepted the order and left.
The Military Intelligence Department is not an ordinary unit. The review process for entry is very strict. Such a big mess has occurred this time, and someone must be held responsible for it.
…
After Henian came out from the director's office, he hurried to the interrogation room.
"Lingyun, the director is very satisfied with your work. He asked me to tell you that he has high hopes for you."
When he saw Chu Lingyun, Henian immediately conveyed the director's words. This was the director's order and must be done first.
"Thank you, Director, and thank you, Section Chief."
Chu Lingyun stood up straight and replied, "The compliment from the Director is good, but it is vague and has no substance."
Chu Lingyun had never come into contact with this Director, nor had he even met him. However, there were many comments about him in later generations, and he already knew what kind of person he was. Even if he was praised so highly now, if he made any mistakes, he would not be forgiven.
In this case, just listen to it.
"Did Hu Qun confess?"
Henian continued to ask. What he cared about most was the case. Wang Wei and Mikami had given up, and now only Hu Qun and Zhu Lihua were left holding on.
"I was just about to report to you, I've confessed."
Chu Lingyun smiled. He Nian was very excited and clapped his hands, saying, "Great! They both confessed. At least we can find out what secrets Zhu Lihua has leaked over the years. There's no rush for Zhu Lihua. We can wait and see. Sooner or later, she'll talk."
Zhu Lihua's injuries were too severe to be tortured any further, so she was taken away to receive treatment.
If you want to torture her, you have to wait until her injuries are better, otherwise you might beat her to death.
Hu Qun's real name is Mikami Ohara, he is 41 years old, a captain of the Japanese Special High Police, codenamed Liuyun.
He joined the Special High Police very early, but his rank was not high. He had been working in Japan before. Three years ago, in order to cooperate with Zhu Lihua, he was transferred to Nanjing.
He is older, so being the owner of the store will not attract attention and suspicion.
His main job was to receive information from Sakura and send messages. The radio was in his shop, hidden in the crack of the wall of the woodshed at the back. It would only be taken out when needed.
It doesn't matter where he hides it, as long as it's there, Loach will definitely find it.
Over the past three years, Sakura has provided intelligence sixteen times, which is consistent with Sanbenjuku's explanation. Six of them were against Japanese spies. Except for the time of arresting a traitor, the others were all resolved by Japan's Special High Police.
The remaining operations were not against the Japanese, so they did not make any moves.
Because of Julie, the Military Intelligence Department failed in at least five operations, and the targets of the five operations were seven people.
This result made Henian very angry. If these seven people were caught, the total number of Japanese spies they caught would be ten, only slightly less than Wuhan, and they would not be completely suppressed by Wuhan like they are now.
This also made him hate Wang Wei even more. For a bitch, he dared to say anything. Not only did he ruin himself, but he also made his and Xu Yi's actions many times in vain.
Four people were arrested, and three of them have confessed. This is a very good result. With the confessions of Mikami Ohara and Yamamoto Suku, we have figured out the information leaked by Julieta, which is equivalent to obtaining one-third of Julieta's confession.
What remains is the appearance of Juliet, her true identity and the secret that Mikami and the others don't know.
Chu Lingyun also has Zhu Shaojun, who has been captured, in his hands, and can get some information from him, such as Zhu Lihua's true identity, etc.
So Chu Lingyun was not in a hurry. After settling this place, he went to Shen Hanwen immediately.
Shen Hanwen has already set his sights on Yang Jian’s employer, who is also a big fish.
Chishima Keiko is so stubborn and has the rank of captain. Yang Jian’s employer must be of a high rank to be able to help Chishima Keiko find a substitute.
Only someone that Chishima Keiko absolutely trusts would do these things. Otherwise, it would mean that she would be exposed to an additional risk, so it would be better not to have a substitute.
"Team leader, you're here."
Seeing Chu Lingyun, Shen Hanwen hurried over to greet him. This time, they did not ask the General Affairs Department to reimburse the money they spent on renting the surveillance point.
Chu Lingyun will pay for all the expenses first, and it won’t be too late to get reimbursed after the person is caught and the case is closed.
Even if Zhu Lihua was caught now, Chu Lingyun would still do this. The fewer people who knew about the action, the more insurance it would provide.
"What's the situation?" Chu Lingyun habitually picked up the surveillance record and asked while reading it.
"Yang Jian's employer's current name is Jiang Binghui. His publicly listed age is 35, and he works as a writer. He hasn't left the house since yesterday, but through our inquiries, we've discovered that he's bought quite a few books since arriving, and neighbors often see him out buying books."
"Write this detail down and try to find out where he often buys books."
Chu Lingyun immediately gave the order. Shen Hanwen nodded and continued, "According to the local headman, Jiang Binghui has not been in Nanjing long. He arrived the day before Yang Jian saw him. He was spotted by Yang Jian right after arriving in Nanjing. This kid is really lucky."
Chu Lingyun was a little surprised that Jiang Binghui had just arrived. He thought he had been hiding in Nanjing.
However, intelligence work cannot rely purely on guesswork. It is normal to guess wrongly. He is not a god, and all his guesses must be correct.
"Yang Jian is also a lucky general."
Chu Lingyun smiled. Yang Jian made a great contribution to the capture of Abe Hanako last time. Without his portrait, it would not be easy for Chu Lingyun to find him.
It was Yang Jian's drawing of Abe Hanako's appearance that allowed them to finally catch her, and through Abe Hanako they wiped out the entire Dujuan group.
"I heard he doesn't dare to go out these days. He even asks his protective brothers to buy him food. He's such a coward."
Shen Hanwen also laughed. Ever since Yang Jian met his employer, he was indeed very worried. He even wanted to live in the cell of the Military Intelligence Department, but was rejected by Chu Lingyun.
Yang Jian was indeed not very courageous. He was scared to tears when he was first caught. He begged for mercy to survive and finally came up with the idea of drawing a portrait.
