"Of the thirty people, only eight remained?"

Dai Li looked at the list reported by Meng Shaoyuan and frowned.

Less than one-third, this elimination rate is too high, right?

"Mr. Dai, originally according to my meaning, there are only three people who are fully qualified." Meng Shaoyuan replied: "But thinking that Mr. Dai was in a hurry to employ people, all of them were carefully selected five. Although the number is not large, please rest assured that the strength of these eight people completely exceeds that of thirty people, and they can complete the deep infiltration mission. ”

"I hope so." Dai Li's eyes were still fixed on this list: "What about the twenty-two people who were eliminated?" ”

"There are nine people who are suitable to be captains."

Not suitable for deep lurking, but not necessarily unsuitable for the position of chief. Dai Li, who has been in officialdom for a long time, still knows this very well.

"There are ten more people, who can let them infiltrate as businessmen, porters, etc., although there is no way to complete the confidential task, but they can still pass on ordinary information." Meng Shaoyuan continued: "As for the remaining three, Mr. Dai, I think they will all defect sooner or later. ”

"So sure?"

"It's the conclusion of the analysis." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "We don't have such conditions yet, but sooner or later, there will be a special analyst in the organization to analyze the personality of the agent, the success rate of the mission, and all aspects of security." An agent who will have a large team behind him in the future. ”

That day will come soon.

Sooner or later, the era of the lone hero will pass.

To be honest, Dai Li didn't quite believe what Meng Shaoyuan said, a huge team only serves one person? So how big will this organization be?

However, he believed Meng Shaoyuan's vision: "Then according to what you said, I will rearrange everyone." These three agents who have the potential to defect will never be reused. ”

The fate of the three people was decided in these few words.

Outside the house, a sharp air defense siren sounded again.

"Mr. Dai, the Japanese air raid, go to the bomb shelter to hide."

"It's fine." Dai Li was as calm as he was when he was on the dock that day: "The target of the Japanese plane is not me, not to mention that the Russian pilots we have worked so hard to bring back will help us drive the Japanese plane away." No fuss. This time you came to Wuhan and accomplished several things, especially the case of Sun Liangqun's surrender to the enemy. ”

Meng Shaoyuan sneered in his heart.

Sun Liangqun was wronged, he knew this, Dai Li knew it, and most people knew it, but no one dared to say a word for him.

It's a kind of sadness to be a human being to this point, right?

"Sun Liangqun, I'm sending someone to step up the interrogation." Dai Li took out a telegram from the drawer: "Take this telegram and look at it." ”

Meng Shaoyuan took the telegram.

The telegram was actually sent to Chen Cheng, chairman of the Hubei provincial government, and the sender was Wu Tiecheng, chairman of the Guangdong provincial government and commander of security.

The content of the telegram was related to Japanese spies. However, the main figure mentioned in the telegram was an Englishman, an economist in Shanghai, who then went to Canton, and recently arrived in Wuhan, and then prepared to go to Chongqing.

The telegram claimed that he had recently had close contacts with the Japanese spy agencies, and that he was seriously suspected of engaging in espionage activities for the Japanese side, and hoped that the Hubei Provincial Military Government would investigate it.

Chen Cheng immediately reported the telegram to the Nationalist Government, which immediately ordered the military commanders to cooperate with the Hubei Provincial Government in conducting a strict investigation of the telegram.

Plavifer?

As soon as he heard this name, Meng Shaoyuan immediately thought of it, this person is not a great spy, but he has caused diplomatic disputes between China and Britain.

Foreigners in this era had a privilege in China, consular jurisdiction.

Consular jurisdiction is a system in which a country exercises jurisdiction over its nationals in the territory of another State in accordance with its own laws, through its consuls abroad. It is an extraterritoriality, an illegitimate privilege enjoyed by imperialism in colonial countries.

In modern times, China has obtained consular jurisdiction from more than 20 countries, including Britain, France, the United States, Russia, Germany, Japan, Austria-Hungary, and Italy.

By the time of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Great Powers still enjoyed this privilege in China.

It is precisely because of the existence of this privilege that the Japanese side has developed some personnel from third countries who have consular jurisdiction in China to provide them with information on Chinese affairs, politics, and economics.

Even if the perpetrators are arrested, the Chinese side cannot take drastic measures casually. The "Plavier espionage case" in Wuhan is a typical example.

"We will cooperate with the inspection department of the Wuhan Garrison Command." Dai Li took back the telegram: "Originally, your mission in Wuhan has been completed, and I want you to go back, but this Plavier is from Shanghai, so you should work hard." ”

"Shanghai has such a large population, how can I take care of it." Meng Shaoyuan muttered.

"What did you say?"

"I said, I'll do my best." Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly changed his words: "Mr. Dai, as long as Bai Lifu is still in Wuhan, it will not be difficult to catch him, but it is too troublesome to cooperate with the inspection department, let me do it alone." ”

"No, that's what I personally instructed from above." Dai Li refused, but then said unhurriedly: "The specific person who contacted the inspection department is He Zhiyuan, what about you, not from Wuhan, what you do, it's all done privately, I don't know." ”

"Understood, Mr. Dai." Meng Shaoyuan immediately came to his senses: "Within three days, I will solve this case." ”

Dai Li had no doubts about Meng Shaoyuan's speed in solving the case: "Speed up, there will be a plane to Chongqing in a few days, let your family go with the plane, and I will help you arrange to go." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Day."

Meng Shaoyuan was immediately overjoyed, and it was a quick way to fly directly from Wuhan to Chongqing.

"There's one more thing you have to remember for me." Dai Li made a special explanation: "During the extraordinary period of the Wuhan Defense War, the most important thing is sincere unity. Don't make any trouble for me. ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Dai, I'll be careful."

"Alright, here's all the information we can get our hands on about Polyliver, you can take it and look at it on the road."

……

As soon as he came out of Dai Li, Meng Shaoyuan took a car back to Zangyun Garden, called everyone out, asked them to prepare, and flew to Chongqing a few days later.

Cai Xuefei and these women are still a little reluctant.

I don't know when I'll be able to see my man again.

"I'll send a telegram to Chongqing immediately." Qiu Xingchang quickly said: "I asked them to pick people up at the airport." ”

"Nope." Meng Shaoyuan shook his head: "The telegram, it is very likely to be intercepted by the Japanese, in case they intercept it in the air, it is easy to have an accident." Chongqing is a big rear and very safe. Moreover, there is no need to get a teacher for the sake of the family. ”

"Then you're going back to Shanghai?" Cai Xuefei asked reluctantly.

Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Don't worry, when I am free, I will definitely go to Chongqing to see you." Qianyi, when they arrived in Chongqing, all the arrangements were handed over to you and Qiu Xingchang. ”

"I know." Shang Qianyi nodded: "You can rest assured that you are in Shanghai." ”

"Director Meng, Deputy Section Chief Wang is here."

When Meng Shaoyuan heard this, he immediately let a few women in.

Wang Nanxing was in high spirits when he came in.

Sun Liangqun, who had been embarrassed by the Operations Division, finally collapsed, and the Operations Division no longer had to be so aggrieved.

If you want to say that Section Chief Meng has a way, he came to Wuhan, and he solved Sun Liangqun's trouble in a blink of an eye.

In the future, I can't make a mistake by following Section Chief Meng seriously.

"Deputy Section Chief Wang, I just received a new order." Meng Shaoyuan didn't talk nonsense, and got straight to the point: "We are going to arrest a Britishman named Bai Lifer, who used to be in Shanghai, then went to Guangdong, and now to Wuhan." Where he lives, it's not clear. What the specific task is, it is not clear. It is also unclear when they are going to leave Wuhan. ”

So how do you check?

Meng Shaoyuan was confident: "According to the information we have so far, it is the first time for Bai Lifer to come to Wuhan, but he has a few friends in the banking industry, and according to normal thinking, he is very likely to go to his friends in Wuhan." From his point of view, he will definitely find a place where there are many foreigners, first, it is convenient to hide, and second, there is a shelter for foreigners in case of danger. ”

"Jingming Building, Special District 3." When Wang Nanxing heard this, he immediately blurted out without thinking about it: "Jingming Foreign Bank, which was originally run by the United Kingdom, was later rented by Warby Bank. Most of the people living there are British. By your train of thought, there's a good chance he's hiding there. ”

"Immediately send someone to keep an eye on the Jingming Building."

In the end, he still needed the assistance of the locals, and Meng Shaoyuan immediately ordered: "Once you find out about Bai Lifuer's whereabouts, don't act rashly, keep an eye on him for me." Remember, if you are not sure, you must not do it. After all, he is British. ”

"On your own land, you have to look ahead and look backward when you catch someone." Wang Nanxing also sighed helplessly: "A few days ago, an American took pictures in a military restricted area and was arrested, which immediately caused protests from the US Consulate. ”

"Deputy Section Chief Wang, pay attention to the wording." Meng Shaoyuan specially reminded him: "Negotiations with foreigners are the government's business, and we just need to do our part." ”

"Yes, Chief Meng, I was wrong."

"The inspection department of the Wuhan Garrison Command was also involved in the investigation of this case." Meng Shaoyuan thought for a while and said: "Try to avoid conflicts with the inspection department, in extraordinary times, unity is the main thing." ”

"I understand, Section Chief Meng, I know Director Li of the Inspection Department, and the relationship with me is okay, if you really want something, there is still room for maneuver."

"Okay." Meng Shaoyuan was relieved when he heard this: "Gan Ning, you cooperate with Deputy Section Chief Wang to act together, and in the action, Deputy Section Chief Wang will take the lead." ”

"Understood."

Meng Shaoyuan searched: "Go, I promised Mr. Dai to solve the case within three days!" ”
