Liu Haiyang soon received the news of Han Mingkun's exposure. He couldn't help but grit his teeth. He had already reminded Han Mingkun to be cautious when dealing with Cao Tie, but this guy was still careless and turned a deaf ear to his words.
Cao Tie showed his face.
This is good, I spent a lot of effort, and the carefully laid out plan came to nothing.
This is not the first time. The matter with Shopkeeper Zheng has not completely passed, and now something like this has happened again. It is simply a series of bad luck.
The most important goal to plant the nail for Han Mingkun is to be the "housekeeper".
For this reason, Liu Haiyang did not hesitate to deliberately reveal some information to Han Mingkun to "accumulate merit". He only gave Han Mingkun the lives of seven or eight of his brothers.
Of course, in order to achieve his goal, Liu Haiyang would not care about the lives of his subordinates.
But after spending so much energy, I finally got such a result. The effort was not proportional to the gain. There is nothing more unacceptable than this.
Liu Haiyang wanted to skin him alive.
He ordered Mustache and others to keep an eye on Han Mingkun. As long as they kept an eye on Han Mingkun, they might be able to catch a few nets of fish.
Big ones are not available, small ones are fine too.
Nowadays, there is only so much.
Of course, Han Mingkun's safety must also be ensured.
Han Mingkun has a large amount of information about Red Party operatives. Han Mingkun has not reported these situations to him in detail, so Han Mingkun cannot die now!
Qiao Zhikun led Cao Tie to get rid of the agents behind him, and soon caught up with Han Mingkun. He continued to follow from a distance. He whispered to Cao Tie:
"Did you see that you need to be very careful when working underground? Today we were stalking the cicadas, but we didn't expect Liu Haiyang to be the oriole behind us. We must have discovered it early, otherwise we would have been in trouble."
Cao Tie was still frightened. Although not a single shot was fired, it was no less thrilling than a small battle. At this point, he understood better why underground work is called a battlefield without gunpowder smoke.
The two people continued to follow Han Mingkun, and saw him walking in front of him. Suddenly, they walked into a shop at a corner.
This move immediately attracted the attention of the two people behind him. They were about to approach, but soon, Han Mingkun walked out of the shop and continued walking forward.
Qiao Zhikun immediately signaled to Cao Tie: "When this guy left the shop, he didn't take anything in his hand. I guess he didn't go to buy anything. I'll continue to follow him. You go in and walk around to see why he entered this shop. Look.
This direction should lead him back to his residence. I told you yesterday, do you still remember?"
Cao Tie nodded in agreement, and Qiao Zhikun then walked into the shop, while Qiao Zhikun continued to follow Han Mingkun.
Han Mingkun was very careful along the way and tried to choose places with many people.
The facts are already very clear, and there is no need to ask for further verification. You can just take them directly.
Of course he would not directly deal with Han Mingkun, but he had to keep him alive. He needed to know how many organizational secrets Han Mingkun had revealed to the enemy.
However, there was no chance to make a move. In view of the current tense situation in Lincheng, there were still many plainclothes spies and police patrols on the street. If people were arrested on the street, the risk would still be too high, so Qiao Zhikun did not
Dare to take action rashly.
Qiao Zhikun followed Han Mingkun all the way. Han Mingkun returned to his residence this time, and Qiao Zhikun was waiting at a teahouse not far away.
After a while, he saw Cao Tie hurried in, sat down next to him, and said: "There is nothing wrong with that shop. I have inquired and found that the shop has been open for several years and the shopkeeper has not changed.
There should be no problem, but I found that there is a public phone installed on the counter. After asking around, Han Mingkun called."
Cao Tie entered the situation very quickly.
"Telephone?" Qiao Zhikun thought for a moment and tapped the desk with his fingers, "This is asking his master for help!"
The purpose of Guanyuting's meeting was not to connect with Han Mingkun, but to set up a trap for him and Cao Tie.
Qiao Zhikun continued his analysis: "He made a phone call and immediately returned to his residence. This behavior is too abnormal. If a person knows that he has been exposed, do you think he will return to his residence?"
"If I were him, unless there was something more important than my life that I needed to go home to pick up, I would never come back and throw myself into a trap." Cao Tie analyzed, "He has been lurking for such a long time, so he must have collected it.
A large amount of information can be used to bargain with the enemy in exchange for glory and wealth."
Qiao Zhikun nodded slightly and agreed with this judgment, saying: "It's possible. In this case, we can wait and we should find out soon."
Unexpectedly, after waiting for more than half an hour, the door of Han Mingkun's residence was closed and there was no movement.
Qiao Zhikun couldn't sit still anymore and whispered: "Something's not right. Let's go over and have a look."
The two of them climbed in from a remote part of the back wall and approached the room cautiously. However, when they entered the door, they found that there was no one in the room, and there was no trace of Han Mingkun anywhere.
The two hidden compartments at the head of the bed are also empty.
"Oops, someone ran away."
Qiao Zhikun could see at a glance that the wardrobe had been moved.
The two moved the closet and suddenly found a secret door on the wall. The entrance was dark and they did not dare to enter rashly. They found candles in the room and walked down bit by bit.
The exit was actually in the courtyard behind the teahouse, which meant that Han Mingkun ran from behind them.
Qiao Zhikun was so angry that he stamped his feet. Now it was too late to arrest Han Mingkun. All comrades who had interacted with Han Mingkun must be notified to evacuate immediately, and the relevant contact points must be closed in time.
Fortunately, he was prepared in this regard. For example, Han Mingkun's people had been transferred outside the city by him on the grounds of carrying out a sudden mission, and were now being reviewed and screened one by one.
Whether Han Mingkun rebelled on his own or dragged other comrades into the trap is unknown now, so we must prepare for the worst.
Qiao Zhikun took Cao Tie to an emergency meeting with Wu Fengjian, and at this time, the status of the implementation of emergency measures was also reported.
The enemy carried out raids on several transportation stations controlled by Han Mingkun. Except for a comrade at a transportation station in the north of the city who failed to evacuate in time and died on the spot in a firefight with the enemy, there were no other losses. Even some information was brought out.
Or it was destroyed in time.
In short, the consequences of Han Mingkun's rebellion were kept to a minimum.
"Old Wu, all this is my responsibility. Such a traitor has always been lurking under my nose, but I failed to discover it, which caused heavy losses to the organization. I request the organization to punish me!" Qiao Zhikun said deeply!
Said feeling guilty.
"It can't be said that Han Mingkun is not an ordinary operative. He is your deputy and the second-in-command in operations. When he was nominated for this position, I raised my watch to show off. Now it is not time to hold people accountable.
At that time, you still need to continue looking for people. You must not go back to the car dealership. The enemy has completely sealed it."
Qiao Zhikun said angrily: "There is still a large sum of money there. It was all earned with hard work, but it fell into the hands of the enemy for no reason. What a pity."
The car dealership earns a lot of money, and Qiao Zhikun transfers funds regularly, but he has tasks on his plate these days and cannot take care of it.
"It's a pity, but if the money and funds are gone, we can make more money. It's good that people are here." Wu Fengjian comforted, "We don't have any comrades in the car dealership. You are usually careful in doing things. I believe they will not find anything substantive.
of."
Qiao Zhikun said: "That's true, but what I'm worried about is whether you will be recognized by others if you have been to the car dealership. You have to be particularly careful about this."
Wu Fengjian nodded and changed the topic: "I have good news for you. The comrade from Shanghai has been picked up. He is safe for the time being. The arrest at the dock did not have any impact on him. He also reminded us not to be fooled by the enemy.
."
Finally there was good news. Qiao Zhikun tapped on the table: "Great, as long as it's okay, it's okay."
"The comrades from Shanghai are mainly to help us find out the mole this time. Now that Han Mingkun's matter has been revealed, we should be able to handle the next things by ourselves. There is no need to trouble the comrades from Shanghai. I will call you in time.
Report to the organization, contact the comrades from Shanghai at the same time, and escort them safely out of Lincheng."
"What do you need from me?"
"No need for the moment. Your current task is to fully trace Han Mingkun's whereabouts. This person and Lao Hu are both traitors to the organization. You must give an explanation to the organization and comrades."
"clear!"
While they were making arrangements, in the dark and obscure interrogation room of the Lincheng Investigation Room, several interrogators were severely torturing a young man who was already bloody and dying.
A burly man with a bare back picked up an already red-hot soldering iron from the brazier, came to the young man, stretched out his arm gently, and pressed it hard on the exposed skin of the young man's chest.
Suddenly there was a sizzling sound in the interrogation room, followed by a shrill scream, a burning stench spread out, and the room was filled with a disgusting smell.
Behind the interrogation table, Liu Changyou, the leader of the First Action Team, was leaning. He was thin and huddled in his chair. He was very inconspicuous, with only a pair of small eyes shining coldly.
This person was the spy who had been searching house-to-house with Chief Dong and Sergeant Xie, and Zhuang Guofu was quite afraid of him.
At this time, he was staring closely at the prisoner tied to the wooden stake, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Recently, the casualties of the First Squadron have been considerable. From Shopkeeper Zheng’s Yuelai Inn to Shopkeeper Zheng’s home, the members of the First Squadron have always been in charge.
Liu Changyou is Liu Haiyang's confidant, and the two of them are relatives in the fifth server. Talking about it, Liu Haiyang has to call Liu Changyou his third uncle.
However, Liu Haiyang is the captain of the operation and he is just a subordinate, so he never dares to act like an elder.
Not only were there casualties, but Liu Changyou was also leading the ambush operation using Han Mingkun as bait, but the result was frustrating. Not to mention catching someone, he didn't even see who the other party was.
Liu Haiyang was angry, and the pressure was transmitted to Liu Changyou, who felt like his head was getting big.
Fortunately, during the roundup, a traffic officer was caught unexpectedly.
It can be regarded as an unintentional insertion.
Because it was a secret arrest, the whole process was very secretive, and the traffic officer originally left Lincheng and headed for Huzhou, so even the underground organization in Lincheng may not know that this person has been arrested.
Liu Changyou immediately organized an interrogation. The captured traffic officer had already experienced brutal torture for more than an hour. Until now, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and spoke at the last moment.
Liu Changyou asked sharply: "Tell me, which organization do you specifically belong to?"
To be continued...
