Chapter 51 Yamada disappears
"Everyone around here knows where Huo Xiao lives, and she's Huo Xiao's concubine. If she doesn't live there, where else can she live?"
The barber spoke with disdain. Many men these days are the same as in later generations. If they can't eat the grapes, they will say they are sour. If he is really given a chance to have a concubine, he will be more willing than anyone else.
"Take this money, and don't tell anyone about what happened today."
Chu Lingyun took out ten yuan and handed it to the barber. The barber immediately smiled and took the money and bowed, saying, "Thank you, boss. Thank you, boss."
As a barber, his salary is actually not low, at twenty dollars a month, but no one would be unwilling to have extra income.
Ten dollars is equivalent to half a month's salary for him.
"Remember, you must not tell anyone about what we're asking you, including your parents, wife, and children. If you dare to tell anyone, I'll give you this to eat."
Zhong Hui warned him and deliberately showed his pistol. When the barber saw the pistol, his smile immediately disappeared.
"Don't worry, I understand. I won't tell anyone."
Finding the woman, especially finding where she lived, was a huge breakthrough for Chu Lingyun. He didn't have time to talk nonsense with the barber and went straight to Huo Xiao's residence.
Huo Xiao is rich and lives in a three-story villa with a large yard.
Chu Lingyun glanced around and instructed Zhong Hui, "You take your men and stay here to keep a close watch on this place to confirm if it's that woman. Also, be careful when keeping a close watch on someone so that no one around you can see anything unusual."
With the example of Yang Jian, Chu Lingyun became very cautious about being followed.
"Don't worry, Team Leader. I know what to do."
When it comes to surveillance, Zhong Hui is indeed not as good as Shen Hanwen, but after all, he has been in the station for a long time, so he can still do a simple surveillance of a place.
"If there is any new development, call me as soon as possible."
Chu Lingyun gave a few instructions and returned alone. As soon as he got back to the station, he saw Niu Qiu waiting for him at the office door: "Team Leader, you're back."
"Come in and talk."
Chu Lingyun opened the office door, and Niqiu followed behind him, closing it. He immediately said to Chu Lingyun, "I sent people to check on Zhao Baishan, Liu Cheng, and Gao Yi. Zhao Baishan's activities are very regular. He goes home after get off work and then has a few drinks at home. He hasn't left the house in the past few days."
"Liu Cheng comes home very late every day. I checked his whereabouts and found that he goes out to gamble with others after get off work every day. My people have verified it and it is indeed true."
"Where is Gao Yi?" Chu Lingyun asked.
"I don't know what kind of romantic luck Gao Yi has had recently. He's been hooking up with a beautiful woman. He lives in the dormitory, but the people there say he hasn't been home in the past few days. He must have gone to spend the night with that woman."
A beautiful woman? Chu Lingyun's heart moved, and he immediately asked, "Has anyone seen this beautiful woman of Gao Yi?"
"Yes, Gao Yi went to the movies with this woman two days ago and ran into a colleague. He had seen him before."
"Go and call that man."
Loach is really well-informed. He can even find out about this kind of thing. No wonder he said that if he investigates, he can find out which woman the person being investigated sleeps in his bed at night. It turns out to be true.
"Yes, Team Leader."
Loach ran to call for help, while Chu Lingyun called Shen Hanwen and asked him to send over a few developed photos.
The original of the woman painted by Yang Jian is in Zhong Hui's possession. If we want to find someone to identify it, we can only use a photo.
After a while, Niu Qiu came back with some people. The person who came was an employee of the general affairs group of the station. When he learned that it was Chu Lingyun looking for him, he was a little nervous.
Before, the people in the station were most afraid of the intelligence team. If the intelligence team came looking for them, it would definitely be bad news.
Now Chu Lingyun from the action team has been added. Everyone knows that when it comes to investigating cases in the station, the intelligence team is no longer as good as Chu Lingyun. It was Chu Lingyun who cracked the Japanese spy cases one after another, while the intelligence team got nothing.
"Come and take a look. Is this the woman with Gao Yi?" Chu Lingyun took out a photo and asked him to identify it immediately.
After looking at the photo, the visitor nodded quickly: "Yes, it's her. This isn't a photo, it's a portrait, right? How come she looks so much like me?"
It matches the name, the traitor is indeed Gao Yi. I wonder if he is serving the Japanese. If so, he is absolutely unforgivable.
Japanese spies are hateful, but traitors are even more hateful.
"Ring, ring, ring."
Just after confirming it, the phone on Chu Lingyun's desk rang. Chu Lingyun immediately picked up the receiver, and Zhong Hui's voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Team Leader, I saw that woman. She really lives here with Huo Xiao. She looks exactly like the portrait."
The woman appeared, another good news. Chu Lingyun glanced at Niuchi, who understood and sent the man who brought the photo for identification out.
"Keep an eye on her. I'll send someone to back you up. Wait for my order and be ready to capture her at any time."
If we catch this woman, we can figure out a lot of things, but she lives in Huo Xiao's house. As a disciple of the Hong Gang and a well-known figure in the underworld, Huo Xiao has no shortage of desperate criminals under his command.
To arrest someone there, you must be fully prepared.
Fortunately, the action team has been expanded, and his squadron has more than 50 people, so it should be no problem to catch a gangster boss and a woman.
"Ring, ring, ring." Just after hanging up the phone, the ring rang again and Chu Lingyun picked up the phone again.
This time, Wang Yuemin's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ling Yun, you're back?"
"Stationmaster, I just got back and was about to report to you."
"Well, come here now. I have something to tell you."
Wang Yuemin hung up the phone after he finished speaking, and his tone was not good. Chu Lingyun frowned. Based on his understanding of Wang Yuemin, Wang Yuemin must be in a very bad mood at this moment. He wondered what had made him angry again.
Chu Lingyun did not dare to delay and quickly came to Wang Yuemin's office. When he arrived, Wang Yuemin was sitting on the sofa, looking up at the sky.
"Lingyun, sit down and talk."
Wang Yuemin sighed, beckoned Chu Lingyun to sit next to him, and then said quietly: "President Wang just called me and said Yamada Yoichi is missing."
"What?"
Chu Lingyun shouted, Yamada Yoichi is the only Japanese spy they currently have, and also the capital for them to make meritorious deeds in the future.
As long as he was lured out of the Japanese Concession, he could be arrested, but at this time, he suddenly disappeared?
"After President Wang made the announcement, many people came looking for him, but Yamada Yoichi was nowhere to be found. He then asked around, only to find out that Yamada Trading Company had closed down and Yamada Yoichi was nowhere to be found."
Wang Yuemin said with regret. He was even more disappointed than Chu Lingyun. His hope of making continuous achievements and impressing the headquarters was dashed with the disappearance of Yamada Yoichi.
Just when there was some progress in the traitor case, bad news came.
It has not been confirmed whether Gao Yi is related to the Japanese, and the specific identity of that woman is even unknown. Naturally, their value cannot be compared with Yamada Yoichi.
