The surrendered leader of the Japanese spy network, whose real name is Sakamoto Koji, is a China expert, and his Chinese is extremely good. He has been lurking in Beiqing disguised as a Chinese for a long time. In the afternoon of the same day, Shi Shigege personally took a car to the hotel in the city.
"Safe House" personal review.
The so-called "safe house" is a term used in the espionage industry. It is mainly a "secret stronghold" owned by an intelligence unit outside its official office. It is generally used to protect and hide important people. From the outside, it looks unremarkable.
The place may be an apartment suite, a single-family house, or a large villa in a remote suburb. In short, it is no different from ordinary civilian buildings, but there are plainclothes agents guarding it.
The place where Koji Sakamoto was accommodated was a single-family two-story building in Nanjing, which was relatively quiet. After some bargaining, the two parties quickly agreed on the price. Koji Sakamoto originally asked for 500,000 yuan, plus a Swiss passport.
I was beaten by Shi Shigege in several rounds to 100,000 Mingyang, plus Australia.
Australian passport. Although hundreds of thousands and a Swiss passport are nothing compared to cracking a southern Jiangsu spy network, money is not spent indiscriminately. Especially a Swiss passport, the cost of getting one is extremely high. And Australia
In an immigration country, there are fewer people and more land, so it is much easier to get a passport.
And Koji Sakamoto was satisfied. 100,000 Mingyang was enough for him to squander for several years. Moreover, Australia was big enough and easy to hide, so it was difficult for Japanese agents to find him. More importantly, he was addicted to drugs and could not hold on for too long.
He knows that as long as Shi Shi Ge Ge follows him
When he was addicted to drugs, even if he was not given a penny, he would say whatever he was told. However, in order to maintain Daming's "industry credibility" as an intelligence buyer, Shishi Gege did not do this
I just lowered the price a little bit, and it was already interesting enough.
Therefore, that afternoon, Fourteen Princesses got the list of eight spies controlled by Sakamoto Koji, as well as the list of his general person in charge.
…
In the afternoon of the next day, Xiuxiu sent all the investigation materials of these nine people to Shi Shigege's desk.
Fourteen Gege stared at the name of the "biggest fish" and leaned back in his chair, feeling quite disappointed.
——Jiro Takayama, pseudonym Takayama. This is an unfamiliar name. I have never heard of it before. This person is not even a high-ranking official in the military and political system, but a painter.
Xiuxiu sat across from the Fourteenth Gege, lowering her head and reading Gao Shan's information:
"Gao Shan is somewhat famous in the local calligraphy and painting circles in Nanjing. But he is only in the "calligraphy and painting circles" and has no reputation in society. In other words, he is a second- or third-rate painter. Others are in their forties.
Years old, he held several art exhibitions, both Chinese and Western paintings.
He can paint, but he has never dabbled in Japanese paintings. Takayama's paintings are also worth a few dollars, and the price of each painting ranges from tens of mingyang to hundreds of mingyang. In addition to his income from selling paintings, Takayama also contributes to magazines, newspapers, and booksellers.
He draws some comics and prints. In addition, he often takes some students with him.
"Last night and this morning, I sent Ayu and Aying to pretend to be a gallery salesman and a student who wanted to learn painting respectively, and asked Gaoshan's neighbors and students about him. His neighbors and students all said 'Teacher Gao'
He is a nice person, very loyal and honest. He usually concentrates on painting and can tolerate loneliness. He is not like other people in the calligraphy and painting circles.
He is so impetuous. He doesn’t have many friends in Gao Shan. Apart from carrying his painting box and luggage to sketch in other places once or twice a year, he doesn’t usually go out much... Well, his students said that once a university in Suzhou wanted to hire Teacher Gao as an art teacher.
Professor, but Teacher Gao declined, because Teacher Gao doesn’t like a restricted life... In short, he is a pretty ordinary person."
Shi Shigege listened to Xiuxiu's narration, biting her pencil and thinking. She suddenly asked:
"Xiuxiu, what do you think?"
Xiuxiu frowned and said hesitantly:
"I think...Sister Liaoyang, could it be Koji Sakamoto who is playing tricks on us? This mountain really doesn't look like a..."
Fourteen Gege pondered:
"Well...such a person...at first glance, he can't be compared with the spy leader...but...Xiuxiu, think about it, if you look at it from another angle, wouldn't a person like Gao Shan be the best?
The ideal image of a spy? The best spy is not the kind of handsome man in spy novels who is well-dressed, enters and exits the upper class, and has impeccable manners and manners..."
Xiuxiu laughed.
Fourteen Gege also laughed and continued:
"...and it is exactly this kind of person who is least like a spy. If no one would think of a person as a spy, then this kind of image is what the best spies pursue. Xiuxiu, you have also been trained as a spy
Trained. They should have told you that if you are asked to perform a long-term lurking mission behind enemy lines, then all you have to do is make yourself look ordinary and inconspicuous, so that no one will notice you in a group of people. It is best to fight with you.
I haven’t had any impression of it in person. This is the most ideal state.”
Xiuxiu smiled sweetly, nodded, and lowered her head.
Fourteen Princess looked at her and said with a smile:
"Xiu Xiu, I know why you are laughing. They didn't send Xiu Xiu to a foreign country, not because Xiu Xiu is not good at foreign languages, but because Xiu Xiu is too beautiful."
Xiuxiu blushed and was noncommittal, but her smile became sweeter. She smiled and said:
"Sister Liaoyang is also very beautiful."
Fourteen chuckled, shook his head, and then continued his analysis:
"If we assume that Koji Sakamoto is not lying, and that Gao Shan is the head of Japan's Southern Jiangsu spy network, then this identity is still ideal. He is not a member of the military and political system. At first glance, he has no chance of contacting intelligence. No one has access to intelligence.
I wouldn't have thought he was a spy.
But since he is in charge of a spy network, he himself does not need to have direct contact with the information. He only needs to get the information from his downlines at the agreed time and place. And his downlines may have so many
Each person is responsible for several front-line spies.
"Those front-line spies should not be professional spies, but people within our military and political system who have been bribed or recruited by Japan. These people are responsible for directly stealing intelligence, taking photos or stealing documents, and then handing them over to their superiors in exchange for money...
...If the analysis is correct, then this mountain should be
This is the big spider squatting in the middle of this big web, the person directly connected with Tokyo. The more important it is, the more it needs the most advanced disguise. The painter is a free and unemployed person, and he can control his time freely, so that he can go at any time.
Joints. And the third-rate painters ensure that they don’t attract attention and don’t draw attention to themselves.”
Xiuxiu's mind flashed and she said:
"Painters can also go to other places to sketch."
"Yes," Shi Shigege also thought of it and nodded in approval, "He must go back to Japan every once in a while to report on his work. Since he is a painter, it is normal for him to go out to sketch. Everyone will feel that he goes away once or twice a year.
It’s normal.”
Xiu Xiu nodded, her eyes flashed, and she said:
"When are we going to catch him?"
Fourteen Gege said:
"If you want to arrest him, you have to do it as soon as possible. Koji Sakamoto has betrayed him, and he will notice it soon. Now that the list is out, it can be left to Stomach. Let him first send someone to monitor everyone on the list.
, and then apply for a search. Try to get it done this afternoon and do it tonight. Reminder that I have a stomachache.
Be careful when monitoring, especially Gaoshan. If you are not careful, such an old spy will be sniffed out by him. Then he will destroy all the radio stations, code books, lists, etc. in an instant. Maybe he will also
He will commit suicide. Not only will it be difficult for us to make further gains, but we won't even be able to prove that he is a spy."
"Yes, Xiuxiu understands."
"Okay, go ahead and do it."
"yes!"
Xiuxiu stood up and went out.
…
Stomachache received Xiuxiu's "instructions" and was very happy. When he saw that there were so many situations, he understood that the "boss" had been hiding it from him for a while. He couldn't believe that he was sure. However,
Now that I have entrusted myself with such an important task,
At most, Ming is a little distrustful, and has no intention of denying himself. In this way, he can rest assured if he has a stomachache. As long as he handles things beautifully, he will gradually regain the trust of the "boss". He promised repeatedly and immediately caught up with him.
Get on the phone and get things done vigorously and resolutely.
Although the Ming Dynasty was constitutional, searches and arrests required a judge's warrant, and the judicial system was absolutely independent. However, because of the long-term confrontation between the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the judiciary would never waffle on matters involving "national security." Counterintelligence units
Applying for search warrants and arrest warrants was very fast. In addition to having a stomachache, I used 120% of my strength to apply. All the procedures were completed within two hours. Before it got dark, the agents from the security team were seated.
He was driving a small black car and was arrested all over Nanjing.
