Chapter 1663 Teacher Liu
Zhang Quanmin watched the man put away his gun and walk away. He sat down on a stool with a painful look on his face.
This was a traitor from the Japanese gendarmerie and a spy from the secret service headquarters who came to interrogate him repeatedly. Zhang Quanmin realized that the man who was making a phone call in his daily necessities store was not only an anti-Japanese element, but might even be of high status.
This made Zhang Quanmin feel even more guilty.
……
"Interesting." Cheng Qianfan took a sip of cocoa juice and said with a chuckle.
The brothers who were secretly watching the Yangjiang Hotel discovered that Dong Zhengguo was acting abnormally, followed him secretly, and saw the scene where Dong Zhengguo pulled out a gun and interrogated the owner of the daily necessities store.
Haozi then came up with a plan and arranged for a brother who could speak Nanjing dialect to pretend to be a gendarmerie agent to interrogate the shopkeeper.
Through the "interrogation" of the shopkeeper of Quanmin Daily Grocery Store, Cheng Qianfan basically figured out the context of the matter:
Someone made a secret call to Dong Zhengguo who was staying at Yangjiang Hotel, and Dong Zhengguo investigated the matter.
According to the shopkeeper, Dong Zhengguo said that the person who called was an anti-Japanese element.
In addition, the shopkeeper also provided the physical characteristics of the person who called:
One ear is missing!
"Do you think the person who called was Cao Yu?" Cheng Qianfan asked Haozi.
"It's almost certain." Haozi thought for a while and said, "Apart from the possibility that someone may have deliberately framed Cao Yu, then this person is basically Cao Yu."
As he spoke, Haozi showed a puzzled look, "Brother Fan, this is a bit strange. Didn't the two of them come to Nanjing from Shanghai together? If there was something that couldn't be discussed face to face, why did Cao Yu need to call? And Dong Zhengguo is still checking this phone number."
"This can only prove one thing." Cheng Qianfan took another sip of cocoa juice, put the bottle down, smacked his lips, and said, "Let's not assume who the caller is. What is certain is that the caller deliberately concealed his voice to avoid being heard by Dong Zhengguo."
"I understand." Haozi said, "Then Dong Zhengguo investigated the phone call and eventually found the Quanmin Daily Grocery Store, and learned from the store owner that the caller had one ear."
"That's right." Cheng Qianfan threw a cigarette to Haozi, and he took a cigarette and played with it in his hand. "Since we suspect Cao Yu, the person who called, then Dong Zhengguo's first reaction will definitely be to suspect Cao Yu."
"Contact Lu Liu." Cheng Qianfan said, "Where did Dong Zhengguo go and what did he do after returning to Yangjiang Hotel from Gongyuan Road?"
"clear."
……
"Brother Fan, there's news." Haozi knocked on the door and came in to report.
I saw Brother Fan holding a magnifying glass and studying an exquisite snuff bottle.
"Tell me about it." Cheng Qianfan put down the magnifying glass, picked up a piece of silk velvet and gently wiped the snuff bottle.
"Dong Zhengguo returned to his room at Yangjiang Hotel from Gongyuan Road. After staying there for a while, he went to the room of Cao Yu who lived on the same floor." Haozi said.
"How long have you been here?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately with a slight change of expression.
"Lu Liu said it should take at least an hour." Haozi said.
"Did the two of them have any quarrel or conflict?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Probably not." Haozi said, "Lu Liu had been hiding behind the door, looking out through the peephole and listening to the noise outside. When Dong Zhengguo came out of Cao Yu's room, he pretended to open the door and go out to buy cigarettes. He saw that Dong Zhengguo and Cao Yu looked normal, and were even talking and laughing."
"What do you think?" Cheng Qianfan looked at Haozi and asked.
"These two people were talking and laughing. It seems that the person who made the call that Dong Zhengguo was secretly investigating should not be Cao Yu." Haozi said.
"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and said, "The fact that they were talking and laughing doesn't necessarily mean that the person is not Cao Yu. On the contrary, it is very likely that Dong Zhengguo confirmed that the person was Cao Yu, and it is not even ruled out that Cao Yu also admitted it."
"Brother Fan, I don't quite understand." Haozi said with a frown.
……
"Time." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "Almost an hour, too long, this is enough to explain everything."
He said to Haozi, "If Dong Zhengguo went over to test Cao Yu, the two sides would have acted out their conversation, so it wouldn't have been too long."
"If Dong Zhengguo had questioned Cao Yu directly and Cao Yu had denied it outright, there would have been no need for the two of them to continue talking."
"There is only one possibility, that is, Dong Zhengguo questioned Cao Yu, and Cao Yu admitted it." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Brother Fan, why didn't these two people have an argument?" Haozi thought for a while and said, "Dong Zhengguo told the owner of the daily necessities store that the person who called was an anti-Japanese activist. Although this statement may be false, it is obvious that Dong Zhengguo attaches great importance to this matter. Cao Yu can obviously talk to Dong Zhengguo directly, but now he is doing things by making anonymous calls. Obviously, there is a problem here."
"That's great, Haozi. Now you can think about problems." Cheng Qianfan glanced at Haozi and praised him.
"Following Brother Fan, I will learn to use my brain." Haozi said with a chuckle.
"Your doubt just now is the most interesting part of this matter." Cheng Qianfan said, "Although we don't know why Cao Yu contacted Dong Zhengguo by making an anonymous call, and Dong Zhengguo would be as if he was facing a great enemy, but just looking at the result..."
He flicked the lighter, lit the cigarette, took a puff and said, "If it is as I judged, Dong Zhengguo questioned Cao Yu, Cao Yu admitted it, and then the two talked for almost an hour, this means that the two people have reached a consensus, have not fallen out, and have even reached some kind of cooperation. At least they have a tacit understanding on some things or some people."
Cheng Qianfan flicked the ash off his cigarette and said, "A secret phone call caused Dong Zhengguo to quickly investigate the phone call..."
He said to Haozi, "Haozi, Dong Zhengguo's investigation into this phone call itself is enough to explain many problems."
"Because this is Nanjing." Haozi thought about it carefully and said, "It's not Shanghai where Dong Zhengguo can easily mobilize more forces to investigate."
"Smart." Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly and praised.
……
"Keep keeping an eye on Dong Zhengguo and Cao Yu." He said to Haozi, "I want to see what tricks they are up to."
"I understand." Haozi said. He thought for a moment and asked, "Brother Fan, Dong Zhengguo said that Cao Yu, who called, was an anti-Japanese activist. What do you think?"
"You are wrong. He said that the person who called was an anti-Japanese activist." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, "This is more likely what Dong Zhengguo said to intimidate the owner of the daily necessities store. This also shows that he attaches great importance to this call."
As for the possibility that Cao Yu was an anti-Japanese element?
Cheng Qianfan didn't think there was such a possibility at all.
……
After lunch, Liu Xia called Minsheng Hotel and asked him to rush to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hualin Garden as soon as possible.
"Brother Fan." Haozi opened the car door and asked Brother Fan to get in.
"Drive faster." Cheng Qianfan said to Haozi.
"clear."
The car honked its horn and stepped on the accelerator, speeding through the streets of Nanjing.
Watching the car driving away, behind a telephone pole across the road from Minsheng Hotel, a man put down the newspaper in his hand and looked serious.
"Xiao Qi, let's go." Liu Bo said to the man next to him.
Xiao Qi nodded, and although he had doubts in his heart, he followed Liu Bo away without saying a word.
……
The two came to a secluded alley.
"Teacher Liu, what's wrong?" Xiao Qi asked.
"I met an old acquaintance." Liu Bo said.
He didn't expect to meet Cheng Qianfan in Nanjing.
Given the level of familiarity between the two, he hurriedly covered himself up. Otherwise, he even suspected that Cheng Qianfan might recognize him if he just glanced over.
"Is he a traitor?" Xiao Qi asked immediately.
"No." Liu Bo said, "He was an acquaintance before, and he became a traitor."
He looked at Xiao Qi, "Let's go, things have changed, I need to meet with Lao Zhao."
"Okay, I'll take you there." Xiao Qi nodded.
……
Wellcome Clinic.
Zhao Guoliang was seeing patients when he saw Xiao Qi coming back.
"I asked you to go out and deliver a dose of medicine, but why did you take so long?" Zhao Guoliang said to Xiao Qi unhappily, "Did you go out and slack off again?"
"No way." Xiao Qi said with a smile. He poured water into Zhao Guoliang's cup attentively and said in a low voice, "Teacher Liu is here and wants to see you."
"Where are the people?" Zhao Guoliang asked.
"at my house."
Zhao Guoliang nodded and said nothing more.
Then another patient came. After Zhao Guoliang examined him, he prescribed a medicine and told the patient to take it on time when he returned home and to follow up with a doctor if he felt any discomfort.
"I feel a little dizzy." Zhao Guoliang said to Xiao Qi, "I'm going to your house to rest for a while. When the boss comes, call me."
He was a doctor hired by the owner of the clinic and had his own freedom. As long as it did not delay the opening of the clinic, he could naturally take a break when there were no patients.
"I understand." Xiao Qi quickly agreed.
……
Xiao Qi's home is in the alley east of the clinic.
"Why are you here at this time?" Zhao Guoliang returned to Xiao Qi's house and saw Comrade Liu Yinwen. He immediately asked, "Is there anything going on?"
"Yes, there is an emergency." Liu Bo said, "It may not be appropriate for me to enter the Minsheng Hotel now."
"What happened?" Zhao Guoliang asked in surprise.
Prior to this, the Nanjing Party organization had suffered severe damage, and a large number of comrades were arrested and sacrificed.
A key reason for the organization's heavy losses was the emergence of traitors within the Nanjing Party organization.
This man was named Dai Chengbi, and he was a liaison officer of the Municipal Party Committee. After being arrested by the enemy, he could not withstand the torture and chose to betray the country and become a traitor. It was Dai Chengbi who betrayed a secret liaison station of the Municipal Party Committee to the enemy, allowing the enemy to secretly monitor the liaison station and arrest a large number of comrades.
The latest situation is that Lan Yangyan, a member of the Municipal Party Committee, was arrested by the enemy. However, it is now known that although Lan Yangyan was arrested, he used the pseudonym Zhang Qiushi. The enemy did not grasp the true identity of Comrade Lan Yangyan and only regarded him as a "little accountant who was bewitched by the Red Party to attend the anti-Japanese night school."
The problem now is that Dai Chengbi, as the liaison officer of the Municipal Party Committee, has met Lan Yangyan.
Once Lan Yangyan is seen by Dai Chengbi, Comrade Lan Yangyan will be completely exposed.
Therefore, the organization urgently decided to take action to eliminate the traitor Dai Chengbi.
According to intelligence obtained by the organization, Dai Chengbi is currently living in a room at the Minsheng Hotel and is being closely protected by spies from the Nanjing District of the Secret Service Headquarters.
To eliminate the traitor, we must first confirm which room Dai Chengbi lives in.
However, the enemy attaches great importance to Dai Chengbi and has done a good job of keeping secrets. At present, we only know that Dai Chengbi may be in a room on the third or fourth floor, and no other information is available.
Moreover, the spies were extremely wary of any strangers appearing in hotel rooms, and it was impossible to conduct close reconnaissance.
Any suspicious person may be arrested and interrogated by the enemy.
In this case, Zhao Guoliang discovered a detail:
Minsheng Hotel is a high-end hotel in Nanjing and is therefore very popular among foreigners, especially the Japanese.
The spies did not dare to provoke the Japanese staying in the hotel.
In this situation, Zhao Guoliang thought of Comrade Liu Yinwen, who was proficient in Japanese, and considered asking Comrade Liu Yinwen to check into the Minsheng Hotel as a Japanese expatriate, and then wait for an opportunity to gather intelligence and obtain the exact location of Dai Chengbi's hiding room.
Now, Zhao Guoliang suddenly heard Comrade Liu Yinwen say that he was not suitable to enter the Minsheng Hotel. He was naturally surprised and puzzled, because this would not only disrupt the plan and deployment, but also there might not be enough time to redeploy.
Because of the information fed back by comrades on the inside, the enemy was ready to arrange for Dai Chengbi to re-examine and identify the arrested comrades of our party and patriotic anti-Japanese personnel.
And this identification has already begun.
We will soon arrive at the Xiaguan detention center where Comrade Lan Yangyan is being held by the enemy.
……
"A group of traitors have moved into Minsheng Hotel," Liu Bo said, "and one of them knows me."
He did not go into further details because too much information might expose his real personal details.
"Is the situation serious?" Zhao Guoliang asked with a heavy face, "Is it an old acquaintance?"
"I guess so." Liu Bo nodded, "She's the kind of person who can recognize me at first sight."
"Does the other party know your identity?" Zhao Guoliang asked.
"I know." Liu Bo nodded. He thought to himself, in such a big city like Shanghai, there are many people who know that he, Liu Bo, is a member of the Red Party.
"This is a difficult situation." Zhao Guoliang had a serious expression. He knew that a traitor was staying at the Minsheng Hotel. In this case, Comrade Liu Yinwen was indeed not suitable to participate in the investigation operation. The organization would not arrange for another comrade to take risks in a situation that was known to be very dangerous in order to save one comrade.
"It's not that there is no other way." Liu Bo said after thinking.
"What method?" Zhao Guoliang asked.
"Because I just found out that my 'old friends' are staying at Minsheng Hotel, this is an unexpected situation. For safety reasons, I stopped the investigation in time." Liu Bo thought for a while and said, "However, if I can get the specific accommodation information of my 'old friends' and their whereabouts, and confirm that they have left the hotel and will not return to the hotel quickly, I can create a time difference."
