Chapter 659: Letter from Shanghai
Eleven main liaison officers were arrested, as well as forty or fifty people who assisted or participated in the Red Party's actions.
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that there is a lot of water in this.
Primary contact may be true, but is this assistance or participation?
It is possible that those people have never even seen what the Red Party looks like.
Isn't this killing innocent people to take credit? Having been in the officialdom for so long, Chen Yang is also accustomed to these things.
"It seems Director Li has gained a lot from this operation." Chen Yang closed the arrest report and said with a smile.
Li Qun said solemnly: "I dare not take credit for this department. It is all because of the minister's wisdom and good leadership..."
"Director Li, you don't have to be so modest. No. 76 has achieved such a great result this time, and I am proud of it as your boss."
Chen Yang smiled and said, "I have asked for instructions from above to approve a special sum of money to reward the brothers who have made contributions in this operation."
"Of course, Director Li must not become complacent because of a small achievement."
"At present, the Military Control Commission has a new layout in South China."
"The Mei Agency and the Special High Section have been tracking the movements of the Military Control Commission. As part of the intelligence agency, we, Unit 76, also need to contribute our own strength."
Li Qun nodded repeatedly and said, "What the minister said is true. Since the last Lin Zhuo incident, the actions of the Military Control Commission have become very low-key."
"There have been no major actions in recent months, and we are trying to track their movements. However, the results are minimal."
"By the way, Minister, I heard a piece of news, I don't know if it's true or not..."
Chen Yang frowned and asked, "What news?"
Li Qun looked around and said, "Minister, there are rumors that the new intelligence chief of the Military Control Commission in South China is our Mayor Zhou..."
"Nonsense, Director Li, how can you say such things." Chen Yang's face changed slightly and said, "Minister Zhou is an important member of the Jinling government."
"As the finance minister of the new government, Minister Zhou has devoted all his energy and energy to the development of the new government. He is absolutely a loyal figure within the new government."
"How dare you question him? You know, he is my boss."
"Okay, you can just say this to me, but don't spread it around after you leave."
Li Qun quickly said, "Minister, calm down. The Ministry has already issued an order within No. 76 not to believe in rumors or spread them, so as to avoid causing adverse effects."
"But then again, there's no smoke without fire. Minister, Director Wan did receive some news before this."
"Someone has seen the head of the Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station, Xu Yuanju, appear near Mayor Zhou's residence. What do you think of this?"
Chen Yang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said unhappily: "Director Li, why didn't No. 76 report this information in advance?"
Li Qun hurriedly explained: "Minister, please listen to my explanation first. This news was received several months ago."
"Mayor Zhou is a distinguished person, and Xu Yuanju only appeared around Mayor Zhou's residence. There is no evidence that the two had any contact."
"After that, there was no news of any contact between the two. Director Wan thought it was just a coincidence, so..."
Chen Yang squinted at Li Qun and said, "Director Li, do you professional intelligence officers also believe that there are such things as coincidences in this world?"
Li Qun smiled awkwardly and said, "Mayor Zhou is in a high position, and his words are not taken seriously. I am afraid that it will damage the mayor's reputation."
A person of low status has little influence. How strange is it to describe Li Qun with this expression...
Chen Yang waved his hand and said, "Director Li, please don't underestimate yourself. You are Director No. 76 after all. In ancient times, you would be a local lord."
"If you are insignificant, how can others live?"
"Okay, let's not dwell on this issue any longer."
"Please arrange for someone to follow up with Mayor Zhou. If there are no problems, that would be the best. If there are any, remember to report them immediately."
Li Qun saluted and said, "Understood. I will go back and make arrangements. Goodbye."
Japan, Nagoya.
Nagoya is located in the western part of Aichi Prefecture, Japan. It is the capital of Aichi Prefecture in Honshu, Japan, and one of Japan's major industrial cities.
The first generation head of the Yamamoto family made his fortune here, and then moved step by step to Kyoto.
In the Shinno villa area east of Nagoya, in an antique old villa.
As usual, Yamamoto Hiroshi got up and practiced kendo in the garden for a while, then changed his clothes and went to the second floor to drink tea.
He is only in his early fifties, but still full of energy.
Logically speaking, this age is the time when one should contribute to the family business and make a difference.
Unfortunately, he lost the battle for succession.
The result of failure was that he returned to Nagoya with his son Kyoichiro Yamamoto.
In the room on the second floor, his employed tea artist, Miss Miyoko, knelt opposite him, gently fiddling with the tea set in her hands.
The faint scent of tea gradually permeated the air as Midori's gestures changed.
Miyoko poured a cup of the brewed tea from the teacup, handed it to Yamamoto Hiroshi, and said respectfully, "Please."
Yamamoto Hiroshi glanced at the tea, smelled the tea fragrance, nodded slightly and said, "Ms. Miyoko's tea art has improved again."
Midori smiled but said nothing. There was a knock on the door. Yamamoto Hiroshi said calmly, "Come in."
A thin young man opened the door, bowed to Yamamoto Hiroshi and said, "Father, I have something important to discuss with you."
Hiroshi Yamamoto finished the tea in his hand and nodded to Miyoko.
Midori quickly stood up, bowed to Yamamoto Kyoichiro, and then tiptoed out of the room.
Yamamoto Hiroshi motioned to Yamamoto Kyoichiro to close the door and said, "What's the matter? Tell me."
"I received a telegram sent from the Shanghai Stock Exchange in China. Please take a look." Kyoichiro Yamamoto took out a telegram from his arms and handed it over respectfully.
Yamamoto Hiroshi looked a little confused and took the telegram and read it carefully.
After a while, he put the telegram on the table and stared at Yamamoto Kyoichiro and said, "You want to participate in this?"
"Ichiro, you have to understand that we have already lost once and we have no more money left."
"If you still intend to participate in this matter, then what is the price you have to pay, do you know?"
"Those shares can only save us once, not a second time."
Yamamoto Kyoichiro said seriously: "Father, I fully understand, and I also know the consequences."
"Nagoya is a nice place, but I don't want to stay here for the rest of my life."
"The men of our Yamamoto family should walk out."
Yamamoto Hiroshi was slightly stunned, and a look of relief appeared on his face.
"Just do whatever you want to do. Even if you fail, you will be worthy of the name Yamamoto."
"Hey, Dad, I won't let you down,"
