Chapter 989 The chess game begins
"Teacher, that guy has been much more cautious since he was scared by us using explosives last time."
"The cook followed him twice and was almost discovered by the people around him."
"From personal security to personal guards, he has surrounded himself tightly with three layers of security inside and outside."
"It won't be easy to find another opportunity to attack."
Gu Linhuai placed a white piece and chuckled, "This is not difficult. If I can send him a bomb once, I can send him a second time."
"It's just that I don't want to touch him unless it's absolutely necessary."
"The Military Control Commission arranged a Mr. A, and we also need an important chess piece equivalent to Mr. A."
"In the past two years, our intelligence work has been lagging behind the Military Control Commission, and the higher-ups are very unhappy."
Du Xiufeng's face changed drastically: "Teacher, is the Director dissatisfied with my work ability..."
"I understand. Their goal in transferring me from Xikang to Shanghai to oversee intelligence work is actually to get you to take action."
"But I don't understand what reasons they used to convince you to come out."
Gu Linhuai looked at Du Xiufeng and smiled: "You are not too stupid to think of this."
"As for the reason, it's better for you not to know."
Du Xiufeng was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "Teacher, can you give me a chance to guess?"
"Guess?" Gu Linhuai put down the chess piece in his hand and said, "You can guess, but I won't tell you the result."
Du Xiufeng didn't care at all: "Teacher, forgive me for being blunt, but you are so anxious to force Mayor Zhou to make a choice, you must have some important information in your hands."
"Mayor Zhou has always been the double-dealer you hate the most. He has cooperated with us before, but he has always had the Japanese in his heart."
"He was not very active in our cooperation and he always dealt with us casually with a perfunctory attitude."
"If the information you have is related to the Japanese, then if this plan succeeds, it is likely to greatly increase the power of the Japanese."
"You are here to disrupt this plan, but I don't understand what role Mayor Zhou plays in this plan?"
Gu Linhuai glanced at Du Xiufeng approvingly: "Xiufeng, you are very good. You can analyze so many things just from the surface."
Du Xiufeng continued: "Teacher, the biggest threat to Japan now is the United States. We Chinese also need the support of the Americans to fight against the Japanese."
"I guess the Americans got some information about the Japanese, and the Yamashiro knew that this information was too important, so they wanted you to destroy it."
"Besides that, I can't think of any other reason."
Gu Linhuai stood up and patted Du Xiufeng on the shoulder: "If you can't think of it, don't even think about it."
"Xiong Jiandong, director of the Second Division of the Jinling Special Agent Committee, has already arrived in Shanghai. He is here to help Dean Chen."
"It seems that within the next one or two days, Dean Chen will come to Shanghai secretly. Has Mr. A sent us any information?"
Du Xiufeng shook his head and said, "We haven't received any intelligence yet. Maybe the other party is still collecting intelligence."
Gu Linhuai said calmly: "We can't rely on them all. Xiong Jiandong is Dean Chen's eyes. Let's get rid of his eyes first."
Du Xiufeng hesitated and said, "Teacher, will this alert the enemy? What if Dean Chen senses danger and turns back?"
Gu Linhuai smiled and said, "Xiufeng, you don't understand. Once an official reaches the level of Dean Chen, he will not let go easily."
"The recovery of the concession is a great achievement and also the capital for him to take over in the future."
"If he doesn't do this, then the credit will have to go to Mayor Zhou."
"How could he give up such a great achievement at this critical moment of power transfer?"
Du Xiufeng asked doubtfully, "But there are still more than 10,000 or 20,000 Peaceful Nation Building Army in Shanghai. When they are fully armed, we won't be able to get close to him."
Gu Linhuai said in a deep voice: "He won't believe in the Peaceful National Construction Army. The matter of the missing explosives has not been concluded yet. He is a very cautious person. He will definitely think that there is a traitor in the Peaceful National Construction Army who has not been caught."
"At this time, how can he trust these people? He can only find Minister Chen and ask him to use the intelligence agencies to protect him."
Du Xiufeng wanted to say something, but Gu Linhuai raised his hand and said in an unquestionable tone: "Do as I say."
"is teacher."
Watching Du Xiufeng leave, Gu Linhuai glanced at the chess game that was more than half completed on the chessboard and murmured, "The game has only just begun."
Shanghai Stock Exchange, Joint Transport Department.
The news that Muto Akira had arrived safely in North China was soon sent back to Meihualou.
When Qingqi Qingyin went downstairs to tell Chen Yang the news, Chen Yang still felt a little disappointed.
It turned out that the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics people asked him to get Muto Akira's itinerary map in a big way not to blow him up.
But he quickly reacted and realized that this should be another test, and they were testing how strong Mr. A's ability was.
So, after all this, they still want to think about reclaiming the concession?
Chen Yang felt that the other party should not be so petty.
From a short-term perspective, the recovery of the concession is beneficial to the Jinling government, but from a broader perspective, it is also beneficial to China's reputation.
Destroying this would be harmful to others and not beneficial to oneself, and it would not benefit Shancheng either. Judging from the fighting during this period, this old fox from the Central Bureau of Investigation is obviously not an ordinary person, and he can naturally see this clearly.
Knock, knock, knock. Chen Yang looked up and saw He Yuehua standing at the door. "Minister, Director Ding is here."
"Oh, I asked him to come over." Chen Yang waved his hand and said, "Let him in."
The sound of a walking stick hitting the ground could be heard. Ding Cun was wearing a fitted Zhongshan suit, and his jet-black hair was carefully styled with hair wax and combed neatly back.
"Minister, you are looking for me." Ding Cun walked into the office and bowed politely.
"Director Ding, does No. 76 have any news about the recent explosives incident?" Chen Yang did not let him sit down, but asked directly.
When Ding Cun saw Chen Yang's attitude and recalled Gu Linhuai's words before, he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
He was the key figure in the case of the missing explosives from the Peaceful Founding Army. He was involved in the loss of the explosives and their transportation from the Peaceful Founding Army warehouse.
In fact, if it weren't for him, Director No. 76, who arranged everything, how could the people in the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics be so foolproof? No matter how hard the major intelligence agencies in Shanghai tried to investigate, they could not find any clues.
Before this, he thought he had done it perfectly, and even if Chen Yang suspected anyone in the city hall, he would not suspect him.
However, after a conversation with Gu Linhuai yesterday, Ding Cun began to suspect whether Chen Yang had known about this matter for a long time and that he was involved.
The reason why Chen Yang has been keeping silent is because no one can take the position of Commissioner of the Pacification Office.
