Chapter 161 Another
The name Hoshino was a heavy blow to Kawamoto Jiro, making him realize that his brother had really betrayed them and sold out all of them.
"This isn't true. This isn't possible."
Kawamoto Jiro's eyes were dull and he kept repeating this sentence in Japanese. The image of his brother completely collapsed in an instant, and he could not accept it at all.
How could his most admired brother, his idol, betray him?
But the facts were before him, and he had no choice but to believe it.
Chu Lingyun didn't say anything. He knew very well that Ma Jingyuan's mentality had collapsed. As long as he was patient, it would be easy to break through.
"I want to see my brother."
After a full quarter of an hour, Ma Jinyuan spoke slowly. By this time, his voice had become hoarse.
"No problem, but you have to explain all the problems first."
Chu Lingyun nodded in agreement. Ma Jingyuan looked up and said, "Hasn't Zhang Bai already confessed? He knows everything I know. Why are you still asking me?"
"He confessed, but I need to verify whether what you said is true, so don't play any tricks. If your statements don't match, you will be the ones who suffer."
"Okay, I'll tell you."
Kawamoto Jiro is dead. His brother was caught and rebelled, Zhang Bai rebelled, and all his beliefs were shattered. He now just wants to see his brother and ask him why he did this?
My brother is not someone who is afraid of punishment. During the punishment training, he has always been the most active one. He has tried all kinds of punishments and can endure them all.
His brother even dared to try the electric chair, which ordinary people had never tried.
He really didn't understand what methods the Chinese had used to make such a tough brother confess so thoroughly that he even betrayed himself and his apprentice.
Zhang Bai, codenamed Lizard, whose real name is Kyono Maki, holds the rank of Major and is directly under the jurisdiction of the Shanghai Special High Section.
Kyono Maki has been in Nanjing for ten years, but he was not the team leader at first. He was promoted to team leader eight years ago, and Kawamoto Jiro only came to Nanjing five years ago.
Five years ago, Kyono Maki married a widow and was unable to send telegrams himself, so he asked Kawamoto Jiro to be his radio operator.
Kawamoto Jiro only worked for five years. He remembered the information he passed on within five years, but he didn't know anything from five years ago.
But even though it was only five years, when Kawamoto Benjiro told all the information he remembered, Chu Lingyun still felt a sense of fear.
In the past five years, Lizard has sent more than 100 pieces of intelligence to Japan, and his efficiency is very high.
However, most of his information was about ordinary people's livelihood and infrastructure. It was these pieces of information, added together, that presented a detailed and vivid Nanjing to everyone.
With this information, Japan's understanding of Nanjing is probably better than that of some Nanjing locals.
Japan really put a lot of effort into Nanjing, the capital.
The lizards reported to their superiors all places and their characteristics, including hospitals, schools, telephone exchanges, government departments, police stations, even fire stations, churches, theaters, etc.
After seeing this information, Chu Lingyun understood that Japan's attack on Nanjing was premeditated. They had made preparations many years in advance and had long wanted to capture this capital.
His wolfish ambitions are obvious to everyone.
Lizard is responsible for various types of intelligence, which are quite mixed and mainly related to people's livelihood, so he has many subordinates. In addition to Kawamoto Jiro, there are five other subordinates.
Among the five people, only Gu Cheng has been found so far, and the whereabouts of the other four are still unknown.
"One of them is Chinese, are you sure?"
Kawamoto Jiro suddenly revealed a piece of information that surprised Chu Lingyun. Among Zhang Bai's subordinates, there was actually a Chinese.
"Didn't Team Leader Kyono give any instructions?"
Kawamoto Jiro frowned, and Chu Lingyun said coldly: "Tell me what you want, don't ask him, I will interrogate him again."
"You lied to me. Team Leader Kyono didn't confess at all."
Kawamoto Jiro was not stupid. He quickly realized that he was being tricked. It might be true that Kyono Maki was arrested, but he did not confess anything at all. These hateful Chinese people were actually deceiving him.
It’s a pity that he was deceived and revealed so many useful things in vain.
"Whether he confesses or not is none of your business. You just need to tell us what you know."
Kawamoto Jiro's face was full of anger, but he was helpless. He simply closed his eyes and ignored Chu Lingyun.
"If you want your brother to live, you'd better tell the truth."
Chu Lingyun did not say that Zhang Bai was dead. There was no need to do so. Kawamoto Jiro was just Zhang Bai's radio operator. They did not have a deep relationship. Kawamoto Jiro's biggest weakness was his brother.
"You can let me finish what I'm saying, but you have to let me see my brother first. Otherwise, you can beat me to death and never get anything from me again."
Kawamoto Jiro was not a coward, he was just temporarily overwhelmed by the news of his brother's rebellion, and naturally thought that Zhang Bai, who was inferior to his brother, also rebelled.
Now that he knew Zhang Bai had not confessed, he regained some confidence, so he put forward the conditions.
"Keep an eye on him and don't let him come into contact with anyone from the outside world, including people from the department."
Chu Lingyun ordered that he would consider Kawamoto Jiro's conditions before making a decision, and did not agree to him directly.
He has just explained a lot of things, especially he raised a key issue.
Zhang Bai, also known as Kyono Maki's subordinates, has as many as five subordinates, and the most important thing is that there are Chinese among them.
How could the Japanese trust the Chinese so much that they would let him become the subordinate of a lurker like Kyono Maki?
Or is it that the identity of being Chinese is very important?
Anyway, today's harvest was good, and Kawamoto Jiro gave us a lot of useful things.
The first is Zhang Bai’s true identity and the fact that he has five subordinates.
Knowing the exact number will make the subsequent screening much more convenient. Without knowing the exact number, everyone would look like a Japanese spy and we would be suspicious. Now that we have the exact number, we can conduct targeted screening.
Chu Lingyun believed that apart from Gu Cheng, the remaining four people would eventually fall into his hands no matter how deeply they hid.
There is also the information that Kawamoto Jiro gave us. Through this information, we can judge the work of the intelligence officer or his living environment.
Holding the recorded confession, Chu Lingyun went to report to Henian that Kawamoto Jiro had been arrested and the radio and code book had been seized. Such a good thing could not be delayed and must be reported to Henian as soon as possible.
"Another one, good, great."
Henian couldn't stop smiling as he looked at the code book in front of him. Before, only Wuhan had seized two code books, and now his operations department had finally seized two.
At least he managed to be on par with Wuhan, and Virgo will no longer have any opinions about him.
When we were arresting people in Tianjin, we only had a radio but no code book. This film made up for the regret of the Tianjin operation.
Third update. Thanks to my boss Anyi for the 10,000 Qidian coins, and to my friend Meng Hui Chang'an 12 for the 100 Qidian coins. After the third update, I'm asking for some recommendation votes. Free recommendation votes are available every day. I hope everyone who sees this can give Xiaoyu some support. (Available on Friday, book club number: 747783804)
