Xiao Lin Zhengtai, 26 years old, is the leader of a Japanese spy team secretly sent to Nanjing by the Shanghai Yingzuo Agency. His pseudonym is Gao Xutai, and his public identity is the arithmetic teacher of Yixianqiao Primary School.
The main tasks of his group are to instigate rebellion against the Nanjing garrison generals and collect military intelligence.
Half a month ago, an agent codenamed "Qian Kong" reported that he had instigated the rebellion of Yi Mingjie, a combat staff officer in Jiangyin Fortress. Yi Mingjie told "Qian Kong" that as long as he was given 200,000 French currency, he could get money from others.
Obtain a garrison map of Jiangyin Fortress and provide all the numbers, weapons and equipment of the Nanjing garrison.
This news made Kobayashi Shotai overjoyed. He immediately telegraphed the news to Shanghai and asked for 200,000 French currency. The director of the Yingzuo Agency, Ying Zuo Renxiong, immediately made the decision and ordered an agent to come to Nanjing with 200,000 French currency.
Because two hundred thousand French currency is not a small amount, and one carrying target is too big. Therefore, this agent did not take the train, but chose to drive here.
As a result, we encountered the 36th Division setting up a jam check on the road.
Unable to escape, the Japanese agents had to lie and pretend that they were businessmen and that they were carrying a large amount of French currency in order to import a batch of cotton cloth from Nanjing.
The soldiers found two hundred thousand French currency in the trunk of the car and quickly reported it to the division chief of staff Xiang Juxian. When Xiang Juxian heard the identity of the person, he immediately became greedy. He made up a reason and withheld the money.
.
The agent refused and made a big fuss, clamoring to file a military court. As a result, he was beaten half to death by the soldiers and was driven back to Shanghai.
After Hio Kage got the news, he was unable to raise this huge sum of money for a while. Secondly, considering that safety along the way could not be guaranteed, he sent a telegram to Shotai Kobayashi to find a way to raise funds on the spot to ensure that he got the important military information.
Reluctantly, Xiao Lin Zhengtai used Yuan Zuocai's hidden trick, and the "200,000 legal currency fraud case" was launched.
This case made a big fuss, and Xiao Lin Zhengtai soon found out about it. Of course, he immediately understood that this must be Yuan Zuocai's handiwork.
Immediately, the police blocked the stations, docks, and major traffic intersections, and closely checked the pedestrians passing by.
Xiao Lin Zhengtai did not dare to go to Zhizhi Lane to check the news immediately, and wanted to wait until the news passed.
But what he didn't expect was that the police's rigorous interrogation ended the day after the incident. Later, when he inquired, he said that the police had caught the fraudster.
Xiao Lin Zhengtai was so shocked that he immediately asked for leave from school and went to observe the situation near Paper Alley.
He was not worried about his own safety at all. Even if Yuan Zuocai finally failed and told all the secrets, the police would not be able to find him.
Because he knew everything about Yuan Zuocai, but Yuan Zuocai didn't know anything about him.
Yuan Zuocai was released the next day, but Xiao Lin Zhengtai didn't know the reason.
Was it Zong Yuwen who came forward to protect him, or was the police trying to get him? Or had Yuan Zuocai rebelled? Was the 200,000 French currency still there? He was not sure about any of this.
Logically speaking, even if the police sentenced Yuan Zuocai, Xiao Lin Zhengtai dared to say that with the training Yuan Zuocai had received, it would be impossible for the police to destroy his will without thirty-six hours.
Therefore, he is more willing to believe that Zong Yuwen came forward.
However, taking risks is the most taboo in intelligence work. Any signs of danger may eventually lead to catastrophe. Therefore, he must find out the reasons before he can decide how to implement the next plan.
To be on the safe side, he chose to follow Yuan Zuocai. He believed that if Yuan Zuocai was still under police surveillance, he would definitely be able to find clues.
When Xiaolin Zhengtai went out, he put on makeup, which caused some wrinkles on his face and the corners of his eyes. He wore several layers of clothes under his robe, which made him look fatter. When he walked, he stooped a little, and he changed from a young man to a
A middle-aged uncle.
Early the next morning after Yuan Zuocai was released, Xiao Lin Zhengtai followed him from his home to the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, but found no one following him. Moreover, he was delighted to find that Yuan Zuocai himself had also made several anti-tracking actions.
This shows that he has not rebelled, and he is also making sure that he is safe.
Throughout the morning, he observed near the Ministry of Industry and Commerce and found nothing unusual. He even saw Yuan Zuocai greeting his colleagues with a smile on his face, which showed that he was in a good mood.
At noon, after Xiao Lin Zhengtai followed Yuan Zuocai home, he walked south along Zhizhi Lane without stopping. When he turned to Trillium Lane, he stopped for a moment in front of the dilapidated yard where the dead mailbox was located, but did not find anything.
Abnormally, he had increased confidence in Yuan Zuocai's safety.
His residence is on Jixiang Street, not far east from Trillium Lane.
When he came out of Trillium Lane and turned the corner, Xiaolin Zhengtai noticed someone following him a hundred meters behind him out of the corner of his eye.
At a glance, he memorized the person's clothing and walking posture.
After walking for a while, he found that the man was always following behind him leisurely. If he was fast, he would be fast, if he was slow, he would also be slow, always maintaining a distance of a hundred meters.
He understood that he was being watched.
However, he has a way to get rid of this tail without leaving any hidden dangers.
A year ago, when he first came to Nanjing, he found a good place to escape tracking, which was a fish restaurant called "Yijiang Xian" on Taiping Street. This fish restaurant has a back door, and when guests go to the hut, they will
I found this back door, and this back door is not locked.
After discovering this, Kobayashi Shotai never went to this fish restaurant to eat again, just to use it as an escape in the future.
Xiao Lin Zhengtai turned into Taiping Street with the "tail". It was the time to eat. There were many customers in "Yi Jiang Xian". Xiao Lin Zhengtai went in, passed through the hall, and quickly walked out of "Yi Jiang Xian" from the back door.
After returning home, Xiao Lin Zhengtai took off his disguise, calmed down and analyzed secretly: "It seems that Yuan Zuocai has been exposed. It's not that the police didn't monitor, but the monitoring has become more secretive. I followed Yuan Zuocai twice and appeared in the paper-making room.
Lane, was targeted. The absence of any surveillance at the Ministry of Industry and Commerce showed that the police were only secretly monitoring the paper lane. It also meant that they did not find the money at Yuan Zuocai’s residence, which further showed that their focus was on money rather than money.
Yuan Zuocai. From this we can judge: 1. Yuan Zuocai did not reveal his true identity; 2. Yuan Zuocai did not admit that he was a fraudster; 3. The reason why the police followed me is that they probably suspected that I was his fraud accomplice; 4. The police had no key
Evidence, as long as the money is not taken out as stolen goods, Yuan Zuocai is safe."
"So, I will definitely not go to Zhizhi Alley again in the near future, and I can't contact Yuan Zuocai in other ways. As for the funds, I'd better call the director of the film department and think of other ways."
