Chapter 77 Destroying the Cuckoo
"Team leader, something's happening."
During the interrogation, Zhong Hui suddenly ran over and whispered in Chu Lingyun's ear.
"What's going on?" Chu Lingyun glanced at Wang Yuemin and Secretary Qi beside him.
Zhong Hui quickly said, "Just now, my men found a secret box in Jingyuan's home. They found a grenade and a bag of white powder, which is very similar to the poison used by the Japanese spies before."
"Very good."
Chu Lingyun was delighted. Having guns, poison and grenades was simply the standard equipment for a Japanese spy.
If there was a 50% certainty before that he was a Japanese spy, now it had increased to 90%.
It seems that he is lucky this time. This Japanese spy has not moved since he came here three years ago. He has been living there ever since.
Chu Lingyun called a halt to the torture, then walked over to Jingyuan and whispered, "Your pointless resistance will only lead to greater suffering. I've captured your team leader, Du Juan, also known as Kawasaki Takeshi, and your two companions, Abe Hanako and Takano Hideki. How did I find you?"
Jing Yuan was startled and turned to look at Chu Lingyun.
His reaction made Chu Lingyun's confidence soar to 99%. The only thing missing was that he had not admitted it yet.
"Put a brazier on him."
Chu Lingyun walked back and gave orders to the interrogators. The trick Zhu Zhiqing came up with was very effective during interrogation.
After the brazier came up, Jingyuan let out another miserable howl.
"I said, I said, stop it."
After more than ten times, Jing Yuan finally couldn't bear it anymore. In addition, Chu Lingyun's words just now caused a great psychological blow to him, so he finally gave up resistance.
Unlike Abe Hanako, he knew the name of his team leader and had met him before.
Chu Lingyun revealed the code name and real name of Dujuan. Even if Dujuan was not caught, he would be in great danger. In addition, grilling his feet like this was too painful, so he could not hold on.
Human feet have always been a sensitive part, more painful than other parts of the body, and the burning pain is several times stronger than that of tongs.
"Name, position, code name."
Chu Lingyun asked as usual. Jing Yuan raised his head, closed his eyes in pain, and slowly said, "Kitamura Muye, a captain special agent of the North China Bureau of the Japanese Special High Police, a member of the Dujuan team, codenamed Dian Deng."
It was indeed him, the last member of the Cuckoo Group. After capturing Kitamura Muye, all the members of the Cuckoo Group fell into Chu Lingyun's hands.
It can be said that this was the first time that the Military Intelligence Department completely captured a team of Japanese spies.
If Dujuan is lured out without any mishap, it will be a complete victory.
"He's really a Japanese spy."
Secretary Qi narrowed his eyes. Kitamura Kiya's previous performance almost fooled him.
After saying that, Secretary Qi looked at Chu Lingyun again.
It was this young man who used several clues that were not clues to investigate, and then miraculously caught the Japanese spy, which gave Secretary Qi an amazing feeling.
"Secretary Qi, Ling Yun rarely makes mistakes. If he says he's a Japanese spy, then he must be."
Wang Yuemin said with a smile that Chu Lingyun was really capable. He caught a Japanese spy in front of Secretary Qi, which made him proud.
Seeing it with your own eyes is definitely different from just hearing a report.
When Secretary Qi returns to the headquarters, he will definitely report all of this to the director. He will be able to gain more points in the director's impression, and his contribution will definitely be indispensable.
"Yes, Stationmaster Wang, you have a good subordinate."
Secretary Qi smiled and nodded. Wang Yuemin took the opportunity to say, "Secretary Qi, you must be hungry. Let's go eat first. Ling Yun is in charge of the case, and there won't be any mistakes."
"Okay, let's go eat."
This time Secretary Qi did not refuse. After Kitamura Kimiya confessed, Secretary Qi had no interest in the content of his confession. This was not his case.
He originally just wanted to see how Chu Lingyun investigated the case, and seeing the process was enough.
Besides, I've been delayed for so long and I'm really hungry.
Chu Lingyun was unable to go to dinner with them. After Kitamura Muye confessed, Chu Lingyun wanted to quickly find out all the circumstances so that he could arrange the next work.
Kitamura Mu also honestly explained his problems. Chu Lingyun asked in great detail about all the sources of the intelligence he had investigated, whether there was anyone inside the government helping him, when he gave the intelligence to Dujuan after collecting it, what instructions Dujuan had given him, etc.
Unlike Hideki Kono who mainly bribed others to obtain intelligence, Kitamura Ki relied on his own abilities to infiltrate the government.
If he hadn't sent out an emergency contact request this time, Chu Lingyun would have had a hard time finding him.
He has been lurking in the city government for three years. Agents like him are more dangerous.
The reason why he sent out the emergency call this time was because Dujuan did not take the information he placed in the dead mailbox in time as usual.
He didn't know Dujuan's situation. After waiting for a day and seeing that Dujuan still hadn't obtained the information, he decided to contact Dujuan urgently.
The meeting place between him and Du Juan was not the De Ming Hotel, but another hotel in the French Concession.
He didn't plan to go there directly tomorrow. He would arrive early, observe secretly, and verify whether Dujuan was in trouble. After confirming that there was no problem, he would go to meet and inquire about the situation.
If Dujuan did not show up, he would evacuate immediately, as had been agreed before.
As for delivering the letter, he didn't think anything would go wrong.
There were so many letters in the mailbox, and he was very careful when putting the letters in, not to attract attention. As a result, the thing he thought was least likely to cause trouble exposed him.
When Kitamura Kimiya was undercover, it only took him two years to be promoted from an ordinary employee to the deputy chief of the communications department. In addition to using money to pave the way, it was also inseparable from his own abilities.
If he could continue to hide, it wouldn't be long before he could become the head of the communications department, or even a higher position.
It would be a terrible thing if a Japanese spy infiltrated the top government positions.
The next morning, Wang Yuemin specially called Chu Lingyun to go with him to see Secretary Qi off.
Secretary Qi praised Chu Lingyun generously with all kinds of compliments. Wang Yuemin couldn't stop laughing. The more Secretary Qi praised, the more it proved that he had a unique vision.
As for whether Chu Lingyun would threaten his position, he didn't even consider it.
Not to mention that Chu Lingyun is his student. How old is Chu Lingyun now? He is only a lieutenant. It is still too early for him to reach this level.
Besides, he has a share of all the contributions made by Chu Lingyun.
…
"Kudo, Dujuan hasn't replied yet?"
Inside the consulate in the Japanese Concession, military attaché Jiang Tengkong asked the liaison officer beside him. The liaison officer took off his headphones and shook his head at him.
"It seems something happened to Du Juan. Go to Hankou No. 3 Middle School and ask if Xia Boyuan has been to work recently."
Jiang Tengkong sighed. He was the military attaché of the consulate with the rank of lieutenant colonel and also the highest-ranking person in charge of the Special High Section’s spy organization in Wuhan.
Two days ago, he contacted Dujuan's radio station at the agreed time, but received no response for three consecutive days, which gave him a very bad feeling.
Third update.
