Spy Shadow

Chapter 207 Changing Direction

He Xiangyang knew last night that this case would involve cooperation with the two departments.

He had already prepared the information and wanted to take the initiative to send it to Chu Lingyun, but he didn't expect that he would come and get it himself.

The file is not thick, and they did not find many useful clues at first, so the content is naturally not much.

"Have you started investigating the origin of the poster?" Chu Lingyun took the file and asked casually.

"I've sent someone there, and there will probably be news in the afternoon."

"Team Leader He, please let me know when you have any news."

Chu Lingyun nodded. Since the Intelligence Department had already started investigating, there was no need for him to send anyone over. He could just wait until the Intelligence Department found clues and told him.

"Don't worry, our section chief has given instructions and we will tell you as soon as possible. We will bother you again then."

"If we handle cases together, there will be no trouble."

Chu Lingyun smiled and returned to his office with the file.

After thinking for a moment, Chu Lingyun put aside the post office's remittance order records for the time being. Chu Lingyun looked at the poster case files first.

The poster case was the same one where the Intelligence Section and the Operations Section made a mistake together when he was in Wuhan. It was later found out that it was Zhu Lihua who leaked the secret, causing the Japanese spies to know their actions in advance.

However, the Japanese spy had no time to retreat, so he resisted and was eventually killed.

Both He Nian and Xu Yi were scolded for this case. Xu Yi put the blame on He Nian, which put He Nian under tremendous pressure. When there was no other way, He Nian invited Secretary Qi to dinner and helped him out.

At the suggestion of Secretary Qi, He Nian began to try to recruit Chu Lingyun. At that time, even He Nian did not expect that Chu Lingyun would be so helpful to him after coming to the headquarters.

The case was not complicated. The intelligence department had many informants and found this Japanese spy.

If Zhu Lihua hadn't leaked the secret, it would have been possible for the Japanese spy to be captured alive.

Chu Lingyun read the dossier carefully, raised his head, and thought slowly.

The Japanese spies had enough time to destroy the confidential documents. This was proven by the fact that they did not search the room afterwards and found partially burned paper ashes.

The existence of confidential documents shows that the level of this Japanese spy is not low. It is a pity that he died and his specific identity is not known.

But he burned other things, why not this poster?

Chu Lingyun looked at the poster photo carefully. Half of the poster was torn from the middle. The tear was not smooth. It could be seen that it was torn by hand instead of scissors.

In this case, it is less likely to be a joint tool.

If it is something to be used for jointing, firstly, it will not be so big, and secondly, the interface must be made to fit tightly and correctly. It is best to be a little irregular so that it is not easy for others to imitate.

Such joint props are either cut metal or paper items cut with a knife.

It was not a joint tool, but the spy carried it with him. This half of the poster was probably of great personal significance to him, but it was not used for intelligence work, so he did not destroy it.

Chu Lingyun picked up a photo and looked at it carefully.

This is a photo of the complete poster. The Intelligence Department has already checked the poster and knows its complete appearance.

The movie in the poster is a foreign movie, produced in the United States, and its translated name is "Lonely Heart". The heroine on the poster is very conspicuous and looks very beautiful.

This is a romance film that was released in the United States last year and was only released in China this year.

The spy carried this half of the movie poster with him until he died. Could it be that the other half of the poster was in the hands of a woman, a woman with whom he had a close relationship?

The requirements of Japan's intelligence agencies are no less demanding than those of future military control.

They can get married and start a family, but they must get approval from their superiors and apply. Otherwise, they cannot marry and have children at will to prevent women and children from becoming their weaknesses.

In this case, it is impossible for Japanese agents to have free love.

If the speculation is true, then the next step is the key. Does this woman know the true identity of the spy?

If you don't know about it and just fall in love, even if you investigate this woman, it will have no effect.

However, it is just speculation at the moment, and the investigation that needs to be done still needs to be done.

Chu Lingyun suspected that this woman was Japanese. After all, Japanese people have a kind of arrogance in their bones and look down on Chinese people. Especially these agents are all selected from outstanding talents. It is unlikely that they would like Chinese women.

Chu Lingyun wrote the words 'poster, woman' in the notebook and then put it aside.

Everything will not be known until the Intelligence Department investigates the results. It is just speculation now.

Chu Lingyun picked up the post office remittance form again and looked through it carefully.

Chu Yuan sent the list late yesterday, but Chu Lingyun did not read it carefully. If he had time today, he would analyze the people on the list himself.

After reading it once, Chu Lingyun immediately frowned and searched quickly again.

Quickly, he closed the document.

In this list, he did not see the remittance slips of Song Weilun and others. The current post office remittance is to first deliver the remittance slip to the recipient's hands. They take the remittance slip to the post office to exchange the money, and then the post office collects the remittance slip. Take as a voucher.

The remittances of the five people have been paid, and their remittance orders should have been left at the post office.

"I am Chu Lingyun, is your Captain Chu here?"

Chu Lingyun picked up the phone and called Chu Yuan's office. There was someone in the big office at any time, so he could guarantee that someone would receive the call.

"Team leader, our captain is not here. He has gone out to investigate the case. I will ask him to call you back when he comes back."

The person staying in the office said hurriedly that the team leader's call must be made clear.

"No need to call me back. When he comes back, come to my place immediately."

Chu Lingyun hung up the phone and reopened the remittance order list.

He understood Chu Yuan's temperament and would definitely report it to him if any remittance orders were eliminated.

Without their remittance slip, it is possible that Chu Yuan himself would not have discovered it.

Traitors are all caught by loaches. Except for Song Weilun, Chu Yuan did not know the identities of the other traitors, but as long as Chu Yuan removed Song Weilun's remittance, he would definitely tell him.

If Song Weilun was not present when Chu Yuan was sorting out these remittance orders, today's investigation would be destined to be fruitless.

The Japanese probably took a second layer of insurance, that is, after these traitors exchanged the money, they secretly took away their remittance slips to avoid anyone using the remittance slips to find out everything.

Japan's intelligence organization has always been rigorous, so this possibility is very high.

If this guess is true, then there must be a spy lurking inside the post office, and someone who has access to the remittance slip.

Chu Lingyun waited patiently, waiting for Chu Yuan to come back and check the information.

Chu Yuan returned to the Military Intelligence Department at noon and learned that the team leader was looking for him, so he immediately came to Chu Lingyun's office.

Sure enough, the team leader was still there and did not leave at noon.

"Team leader, are you looking for me?"

Chu Yuan asked hurriedly, still a little uneasy. The team leader was so eager to find him. Could it be that he had made a mistake again?

"When you checked the remittance order yesterday, did you see Song Weilun's remittance order?"

Chu Lingyun asked directly. Chu Yuan was a little confused, but quickly shook his head: "No, I checked yesterday's remittance slip and made sure it didn't belong to Song Weilun."

Sure enough, there is a spy lurking in the post office.

"Immediately stop the investigation of those remittance order lists."

Chu Lingyun ordered, Chu Yuan was stunned and immediately asked: "Team leader, why didn't you investigate?"

"Because it's useless to check. The Japanese spies are cunning and have already extracted these people's remittance orders. No matter how we investigate, we will never find their people."

Chu Lingyun said slowly, "It's a pity that I was careless this time. I didn't expect that after the Japanese dispersed the remittance, they also placed a second layer of insurance at the post office."

His biggest worry now is whether Chu Yuan's investigation at the post office yesterday might alert the Japanese spy.

"Team leader, I will go to the post office now to investigate and see who has access to the remittance order."

Chu Yuan said quickly, while Chu Lingyun nodded and warned: "Not only should we check the people who have access to the remittance slips, but we should also check whether there are anyone who did not go to work as usual from yesterday to today."

If a Japanese spy finds someone investigating a money order, he is likely to abscond.

If there is someone at the post office who has access to the remittance form and suddenly fails to show up for work, then he is probably the spy.

"Yes, team leader."

Chu Yuan took the order and left. After he went out, Chu Lingyun hammered the table hard.

Chu Lingyun had a hunch that this investigation of the post office would probably not yield any results, and the Japanese already knew that they found the post office remittance slip.

If he was Japanese, he would not have been alert at all since he had made arrangements.

When fighting against Japanese spies, there should be no sloppiness at all. If you relax a little bit, they can slip out.

Chu Yuan came back quickly, arrived at Chu Lingyun's office, and immediately lowered his head.

"Team leader, I checked the post office. After I left the post office yesterday, the section leader responsible for guarding the database disappeared and did not come today. I went to his home and it was very clean. According to the reports from the neighbors, He left yesterday with the suitcase and no one knows where he went."

Just as the team leader guessed, their actions alerted the spy, and the spy responsible for extracting the remittance slip had already escaped.

It's a pity that he didn't think of this yesterday, otherwise he wouldn't be able to escape at all.

"It doesn't matter. If you can run away, the monk can't run away from the temple. Now you immediately order people to go to all important cities across the country and ask them to go to the post office to secretly investigate everyone's remittance records and bring back all the contents of these records. Remember, you must secretly investigate, you can't Make too much noise, let alone leak the news."

Chu Lingyun shook his head. Since the spy ran away, it would not be easy to find him.

Moreover, he left with a box and was probably already out of the city. Even if his portrait could be drawn, there was no way to find him again.

But the painting still needs to be done. If you know more about what a spy looks like, you might gain something in the future.

"Team leader, are we going to all important cities across the country?" Chu Yuan asked in surprise.

"Yes, I will give you a list of cities later. I want to go to all of them."

Chu Lingyun nodded and said that the traitors in charge of the Wildcat Team had only remitted money from four cities, but the Japanese spies might have remitted money in other cities.

If you want to find out more people who were instigated by Japanese spies, you need to check all the remittance records in all big cities, not just these four cities.

Chu Yuan took the order and thought that some traitors could be found through the remittance slip. Unfortunately, this wish failed again.

The Japanese spy was so treacherous. He even thought of the remittance slip as an investigation clue and made arrangements. If the team leader hadn't discovered it early, I'm afraid he would have done it foolishly and in vain.

Among the remittance orders he got, there was no sign of anyone being incited to rebel.

After Chu Yuan left, Chu Lingyun could only hope that post offices in other cities would gain something. After all, spies did not conduct remittances in one place, and it was impossible for them to place their people in all post offices.

That would require too many manpower and absolutely trustworthy people, so it would be better to use another way to distribute rewards.

"A spy is so cunning?"

After listening to Chu Lingyun's report, He Nian's eyes widened.

It was good for Chu Lingyun to think of checking the traitor from the remittance slip, but he didn't expect that the Japanese spy had made arrangements in advance.

Once the spy escapes, the direction of the investigation is completely cut off.

"Section Chief, we have long known how cunning Japanese spies are. I was careless this time, but there is still a chance to make amends."

Chu Lingyun told Chu Yuan's mission, and now he can only place his hope on them, hoping that they can gain something.

Otherwise, the line of remittance orders will be completely cut off, and Japanese spies will definitely switch to a method of paying intelligence remuneration to traitors.

"Ling Yun, what on earth are you thinking about? You can even think of checking the remittance records of other cities. Yes, as long as we can check the records, even if the comparison is more troublesome, we can probably find the people who were instigated to rebel."

Hearing Chu Lingyun's arrangement, He Nian's eyes widened again.

With all the clues gone, it would be even more difficult for Chu Lingyun to still have a direction to investigate.

Although the investigation is difficult, there is hope as long as there is direction.

"Section Chief, I don't know if the spies have arranged it, but they have no shortage of talents. They may be able to figure out this loophole soon, so we need to get the initial remittance records as soon as possible. I hope you can communicate with other important city substations Say hello and give Chu Yuan your full support when you need them."

There are not many people in Chu Yuan's team. Except for Wuhan, they are not familiar with other places. If the post office does not cooperate and there are few people there, it will be difficult to conduct a secret investigation.

This requires the support of each branch station. Wuhan does not need to say New Year greetings. Chu Lingyun can just send a message to Wang Yuemin, but in other places, he must come forward to say New Year greetings.

"No problem, I'll say hello to them now."

Nodding in greeting, Chu Lingyun said hurriedly: "Don't call me now, wait until they arrive, and send them a text message instead of using the phone."

There are spies in the post office, and long-distance calls are not safe, so their whereabouts cannot be revealed in advance.

"It's better that you've thought it through, okay, I'll send them a report tonight, and they'll give me this face."

He Nian nodded and said, nominally he was at the same level as the webmasters of each station, but he was the section chief of the headquarters, and by unspoken rule he was half a level above them.

Besides, he is at the headquarters, next to Virgo. If he asks these people for help, they will definitely give him face.

Otherwise, if he says bad things about a few people in the future, they will not be able to bear it.

This is also the reason why Chu Lingyun came to report to He Nian. Chu Yuan and the others had to get help from the local government before they could go out. Only He Nian could do it. He didn't have that much face.

Chu Yuan brought his own radio. People who went to other cities did not have radios, but they could use the radio stations at the sub-stations to transmit information to Chu Lingyun at any time.
