Chapter 1233 Arrest

Two hours after Xiang Fang confessed, Zuo Zhong followed the servant into Minister Kong's residence "Guiyuan".

This is a Chinese-style villa in an excellent location, very close to someone's official residence in Huangshan.

The entire building is made of fine blue bricks and wood, and the roof is paved with small green tiles. It looks very charming from a distance, and the interior decoration is also quite elegant, with elegant furnishings.

Zuo Chong walked a few steps in and saw a lot of antiques from the royal family of the previous dynasty placed on the ancient shelves on both sides of the aisle. The price was enough to buy a few cutting-edge tanks, or to form a standard infantry regiment.

The soldiers at the front can't even get their military pay, but the families of the officials at the rear are so extravagant. It would be unreasonable for the country to remain undefeated.

Sighing secretly, Zuo Zhong walked into the living room covering an area of ​​more than 100 square meters. He saw Minister Kong, dressed in home clothes, leaning on the sofa, holding a newspaper and reading enthusiastically.

Perhaps he heard footsteps. Minister Kong, who had already received the notice from the servant, put the newspaper on the coffee table and slowly raised his head with a smile on his face.

“Deputy Director Zuo, do you have any urgent business to come to my place today?”

Zuo Zhong stood respectfully and bowed slightly: "This is to Minister Kong, I am here to report a case to you."

 “Case?”

Minister Kong frowned slightly and asked with some confusion: "Deputy Director Zuo may have found the wrong person. The Executive Yuan and the Ministry of Finance are not responsible for intelligence matters. If the military command needs funds, it can be reported to the Fourth Alliance Headquarters. "

  Intelligence work is very sensitive. Minister Kong did not want to have anything to do with the military commander and Zuo Zhong. After all, his brother-in-law was a bit narrow-minded. It would always be troublesome if the other party knew that he had a private meeting with the intelligence chief.

Zuo Zhong did not answer, but glanced at the servant next to him. Minister Kong’s brows furrowed even more, and he raised his hand and waved to the servant to get down.

 When there were only two people left in the living room, Zuo Zhong organized his words and spoke again in a tactful tone.

“Minister Kong, after careful investigation, our military commander discovered a spy organization hidden at the top of the national government. You may have heard the name of this organization.”

"oh?"

Minister Kong didn't take it seriously. It was a well-known fact that spies in the government were like crucian carp crossing the river, and it was not worth making a fuss about.

Zuo Zhong glanced at the other party quickly and whispered three words: "Jinlan Club."

The casual expression on Minister Kong's face disappeared. Of course he knew about the Jinlan Club and was familiar with it, because his daughter was the vice president of the Jinlan Club.

So what is the purpose of the military commander’s visit?

 Arrest someone?

Or are there people who are dissatisfied with him as the Vice President of the Executive Yuan and want to take the opportunity to criticize him?

In an instant, Minister Kong thought of a lot. After pondering for a moment, his expression darkened: "Deputy Director Zuo, state affairs are family affairs, and family affairs are state affairs. We, the Kong family, will fully cooperate with your military commander's investigation."

As a political figure, he has to think about things in the worst direction. When it comes to spies, the Kong family's attitude must be firm.

Hearing this, Zuo Zhong lowered his waist a little more to give the other party face, and deliberately made a look of shock.

"Minister Kong, you misunderstood. I just want to ask Miss Kong to go to the military to testify against the spy leader Sima Linglong. I have no other intention. Miss Kong can leave at any time after the testimonial is over."

Humbling around in the officialdom, you have to bow your head when it’s time to bow your head. If you don’t have enough strength, don’t learn the “strength order”.

In many novels and film and television dramas, the protagonist insists on intensifying the conflict even though the problem can be solved by using language and art. This is not a matter of backbone, but a problem with his brain.

Minister Kong on the opposite side looked slightly calmer, cordially invited Zuo Zhong to sit down and talk, and then asked about the specifics of the case.

Zuo Zhong sat on the sofa and reported the facts of the case truthfully. At the same time, he "apologized" to Minister Kong. Since there was no room in the military commander's vehicle, Miss Kong Er had to take a car to the military commander's headquarters by herself. It was really rude.

Once again confirming that the military commander was not prepared to restrict his daughter's movements, Minister Kong relaxed even more, and a smile appeared on his face again. He ordered someone to go upstairs to notify Miss Kong Er while chatting with Zuo Zhong.

In his words, he mentioned Miss Kong Er's marriage intentionally or unintentionally, which frightened Zuo Zhong and made him have the urge to rush out of the door.

Just as he was talking, Miss Kong Er, who was wearing a vest and trousers, came down the stairs. Without looking at Zuo Zhong, she sat down next to Minister Kong and crossed her legs.

 “Old man, what do you want me to do?”

Minister Kong smiled awkwardly at Zuo Zhong, turned around and told the story again, warning Miss Kong Er to cooperate with the military unification work, otherwise the other party's monthly expenses would be reduced.

Looking at the increasingly ugly Miss Kong Er, Zuo Zhong secretly thought that something was wrong. Although Minister Kong had studied abroad, his communication with his children was like that of a feudal parent, so he quickly started a quarrel.

“Miss Kong, I have long heard that you hate evil as much as hatred. With your help, we will definitely be able to bring Sima Linglong to justice.”

Miss Kong Er, who was originally furious, couldn't help but feel a little proud when she heard this. She stood up and said "lead the way" before walking out in a big way.

To deal with this kind of officials' children who don't like to listen to criticism, do everything without considering the consequences, and act according to their own temperament, you have to go along with it.

Zuo Zhong felt tired and said goodbye to Minister Kong with a smile on his face, and left the Kong residence as if he was running away, fearing that the other party would marry him. While Deputy Director Zuo was scared to death, Deputy Director Yang of the Internal Government was also chatting with his wife at home. The content of the conversation was related to Miss Kong Er and the Jinlan Society.

"Lao Yang, can the deputy minister that Miss Kong promised be fulfilled? Don't just say it casually, right?"

"You are a woman, you know who the Kong family is, and you will never break your promise."

Deputy Director Yang took a puff of his cigar and said to his wife very dissatisfied: "Don't deal with those women from the Jinlan Society in the future. I think there is something wrong with that Sima Linglong."

Not only was Mrs. Yang not angry, but she nodded: "Sima Linglong is too curious and doesn't look like a serious businessman. If Miss Kong hadn't been here, I wouldn't have bothered to talk to her."

Deputy Director Yang nodded with satisfaction. As a well-known figure in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and even the national government, how could he not know that Jinlan would be weird.

 It doesn’t matter if it’s weird, as long as you have a good sense of proportion, bad things can turn into good things.

As soon as the deputy minister got it, he immediately reported Sima Linglong to deputy director Zuo. If he tried to kill both sides, he might even get a reward.

Just as he was about to give his wife a few more words, he heard a knock on the door. When the servant opened the door, Gu Qi, the deputy director of the military command, strode in with a group of spies.

Deputy Director Yang and Gu Qi were old friends. They had known each other since they were in Jinling. Upon seeing this, they quickly stood up and extended their hands, greeting each other warmly.

 “Oh, Deputy Director Gu is coming, sometimes he is not welcomed from afar, sometimes he is not welcomed from afar.”

As he spoke, he looked at the little agent again, approached Gu Qi and lowered his voice to test: "Lao Gu, does your bureau have a case that requires Yang's cooperation? Don't worry, I know the rules."

 Gu Qi shook hands with Deputy Director Yang and replied in a low voice: "That's right, but I'm not looking for you, Lao Yang, but your lady."

 “Something happened to Jinlan Society?”

Deputy Director Yang immediately replied that it was related to the military commander and his wife. He could only think of this matter. It was a pity that he could not report it. He felt a little depressed.

Gu Qi nodded in surprise: "Yes, Madam needs to come with us. There is no need to worry. Deputy Director Zuo has told us to take good care of Madam Yang."

"Okay, Zhuo Jing will leave it to Deputy Director Gu. I will tell the public that she has returned to her hometown." Without any hesitation, Deputy Director Yang immediately expressed his stance.

 If it weren't for the fact that he could get the directorship so quickly, he would do things and speak appropriately. Gu Qi smiled slightly and politely asked Mrs. Yang to go out and get in the car and go to the Luojiawan Military Command Headquarters.

Almost at the same time, many officials in the city welcomed military agents to their residences. They learned that someone in their family was involved in the leak of information about the encirclement and suppression campaign, and that this was someone's order. All these officials expressed their cooperation and lost their past arrogance.

Among all the arrest targets, No. 14 Dexingli, where the Jinlan Club is located, is the focus. Gui Youguang, the leader of the special operations team, personally led the team to carry out this mission.

Following an order, several teams of small agents carried door hammers and rushed to the front and rear doors of the Jinlan Club. After several loud noises, the thick door panels fell to the ground, and then the heavily armed agents filed in.

 In order to prevent the news from leaking, the power and communication lines in Dexingli were completely cut off one second before the operation, and nearby roads were also under strict surveillance.

At the front of one of the arresting teams, Gui Youguang clamped the **** of Thomson's gun between his chin and shoulder. According to the plan made in advance, he raised his gun and moved towards Sima Linglong's residence.

As soon as they arrived at the target door, the agents met head-on with a maid who came to check after hearing the knock on the door. Before the other party could say anything, Gui Youguang raised his foot and kicked the person in the abdomen, sending the maid away. Got out.

The moment the maid landed, two little spies stepped forward and held the person down. The others followed Gui Youguang and rushed into the room quickly, heading straight for Sima Linglong's bedroom.

At this time, Sima Linglong had already sat up from the bed. She looked at the intruding agent with his hands raised in the air. His expression was quite calm, as if he had expected it.

Behind the mask, Gui Youguang frowned. This was the first time he had seen such a calm captured target. Could their guess be wrong? The other party was not a spy.

　　 No, if it were an ordinary woman, she would have been frightened out of her wits when encountering this kind of situation, and would not be so quiet.

When Sima Linglong was arrested, all the staff of the Jinlan Club were also arrested. During this period, the agents did not encounter any resistance and the operation went very smoothly.

After receiving the feedback, Gui Youguang took back his weapon and coldly ordered: "Search the scene and take the people away!"

 The operators immediately followed the order. Some began to rummage through the boxes, while others put the suspect into the car and quickly returned to the headquarters.

On the other side of the city, Zhong Xiao, the first suspect targeted by the military commander, was taken away by Wu Chunyang at home. Zhong’s father and mother had no idea what had happened.

Looking down from a high altitude, multiple convoys set off from various parts of the mountain city, all destined for Luojiawan No. 29.

In the office building, Zuo Zhong stood quietly in front of the window, watching the cars driving through the gate, and turned towards the detention center with a stern expression.

①Silian General Office, which is the "Joint General Office of the Central Bank, China Banking Corporation, Communications Bank, and Farmers Bank".
