Chapter 259: Parting the Clouds and Seeing the Moon
Shang Bo frowned as he searched for information:
"I'm sorry, I originally had a piece of information about Jin Hai, but you were a step too late and someone took it away."
"Took it away? Who?" Li Ya asked with raised eyebrows.
"Xie Ruolin, a former follower of mine, is now a close confidant of Sun Chuanzhi of the Party Communications Bureau." Shang Bo said.
“But if you find him, you may be disappointed.
"This person pays great attention to his reputation. Once the information is sold, he will not reveal a word even if you kill him." Shang Bo said again.
"I know.
"So I can only ask you, have you kept any backup?" Li Ya asked coldly.
"This..." Shang Bo stammered.
"I know the character of you people. You sell double or even more than one piece. It is impossible that you don't keep a reserve." Li Ya said.
“I originally kept a copy of the original.
"But you know, Xie Ruolin is very cunning. He took it all away."
Said Shangbo.
"It seems that you are unwilling to tell the truth.
"Someone reported that you were too close to Hong Piao. It's just the right time. Come with me to the Bureau of Secrets."
Li Ya sucked his cheek, and in the blink of an eye he reached for the gun with his backhand.
He has seen the world.
He also knew how impressive his skin was.
Especially in front of these shady profiteers, the Military Control Commission and the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics are their ancestors.
“Don’t, don’t!
“I really can’t bring out the basics, but I remember the content of the intelligence very clearly.
"You know, in our line of work you have to have the ability to remember the past.
"Can I recite it to you word for word?"
Shang Bo raised his hands in fear.
“I don’t have your ability.
"write down."
Li Ya tapped his chest and said.
In order to set a trap for Mei Yingxue, he pestered her endlessly, which consumed a lot of his energy and blood, and he has not fully recovered until now.
My memory is much worse than before.
Just based on what Shangbo said, he might not be able to remember it.
"Yes Yes."
Shangbo wrote it down swiftly.
Li Ya picked it up and took a look. A sharp light suddenly appeared in his eyes and his expression changed instantly.
Gloomy and serious.
Then ecstasy.
This made Shang Bo, who was standing by, very angry.
Generally, when a customer shows this expression, it means that the information is extremely valuable.
Made.
It was really bad luck for Mr. Xie that he sold at a loss.
"Are you sure it's exactly the same?"
Li Ya put it away and asked in a deep voice.
"Sure, exactly." Shang Bo replied.
"it is good."
Li Ya turned and walked out.
When he reached the door, he turned back again:
"Keep your mouth shut, or I'll be rude to you."
"I understand, I understand!" Shangbo nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Li Ya returned home, took out the manuscript and read it carefully.
Called Jinhai Station.
Since Jianfeng confessed the matter of Yangjia Village, he has been investigating Yu Zecheng.
Especially in the past two months, by checking the documents on the entire site, many clues were combined and it turned out that Yu Zecheng had more and more loopholes, even to the point of being obvious.
"Magui!"
Li Ya picked up Ma Kui's information and began to flip through the pages.
This man was once Mao Renfeng's bodyguard and was deeply trusted by Mao.
During the Japanese occupation, he sneaked into enemy-occupied areas alone many times to carry out top-secret missions.
It was precisely because of his many achievements that he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel at an early age.
When Ma Kui arrived in Jinhai, he found that almost all the archival records were about checking the red bills and targeting Yu Zecheng.
How could such a person be a red ticket?
The key is still Mount Emei!
Emei Peak!
According to this information from Shangbo.
The Red Ticket Party once sent a member of the Sixth Border Security Section named Chen Qiuping to Jinhai to marry Emei Peak and carry out a covert mission.
After Chen Qiuping's death, Hongpiao urgently sent someone to Jinhai two days later.
In other words, Mount Emei has a wife.
His wife is a red ticket!
Li Ya picked up a pen and wrote Ma Kui next to "Emei Peak".
Then in the Madam column: write Zhou Gendi.
How could Zhou Gendi, a woman who loves to read foreign pornographic magazines and hides Hong Zhiyou's photos and some miscellaneous tools to satisfy her needs under her pillow, be a red ticket?
Li Ya had seen a female prostitute in Yancheng.
They are full of energy and righteousness.
It is definitely not women like Zhou Gendi and Mei Yingxue who are so shameless to the core.
Li Ya bit his lip, frowned and thought for a moment.
He suddenly crossed out Maguire's name.
Then, he wrote the three words "Yu Zecheng".
Madam, Cuiping.
Chen Qiuping.
Wang Cuiping.
Chen Qiuping fell off a horse and died on September 9.
Urgent tune, urgent tune...
Li Ya seemed to have figured something out, and quickly picked up the phone and dialed a number:
"Gao Yuan, are you on duty?
“Immediately check the General Affairs Department’s records of publicly funded dinners at the Lishun Hotel.
“And the station’s official vehicle dispatch records.
“Yes, the main time period is after September 9th.
"If there is any surplus, mark it out and tell me."
hang up the phone.
Li Ya clenched his fists excitedly, and his knuckles crackled.
He felt like he had touched the light.
Soon, Gao Yuan called back:
"Captain Li, I found it.
"..."
Gao Yuan was reading over there, and Li Ya stopped him: "You don't need to read the first part, only the 26th and later ones."
"On the morning of September 9, Deputy Station Master Yu took a bus to Bawang Village in Langfang to pick up the passengers.
"On the evening of September 9, the stationmaster hosted a welcoming banquet, and Yu, Lu, and Ma all attended with their wives."
Gao Yuan thought.
"I see!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Ya quickly wrote the date under Wang Cuiping's name.
9 month 28 day.
On September 9, Chen Qiuping died.
On the 28th, Cuiping arrived.
Urgent call!
He tapped some dots on Chambo's manuscript with the tip of his pen.
Only two days apart.
It is indeed urgent enough.
He took out another small notebook.
This is what Li Ya found in Ma Kui's house.
Zhou Gendi left in a hurry and happened to arrive in Tianjin at the same time, so the station did not search Ma Kui's house thoroughly.
Ma Kui has the habit of keeping a small notebook.
Zhou Yafu, the accountant in the station, was a spy planted by Ma Kui to monitor the Yu couple.
Zhou Yafu had reported to Ma Kui many times, and the Yu couple often quarreled.
This is not difficult to explain.
If they were a real couple, how could they quarrel when they haven't seen each other for so long and can't show affection?
A woman who was transferred here urgently from the mountains, and they were not a real couple, was not used to city life, so quarrels were inevitable.
Furthermore.
My mentor Liu Xiong was nicknamed "Goshawk".
His eyes were so sharp that he had targeted Wang Cuiping and even arrested Wang Cuiping's coachman Xiao Wuzi in Yi County.
The fog in front of Li Ya's eyes gradually dissipated.
He has seen the truth!
Yu Zecheng is the real Mount Emei.
Wang Cuiping was urgently transferred from Yi County with red tickets.
The specific position and identity are unknown.
But what is certain is that she must be a favorite.
"I see!"
Li Ya put down his pen, clenched his fists tightly against the corners of his mouth, and his cheeks became tense.
Yu Zecheng is Mount Emei.
Ma Kui was wrongly killed.
Will the teacher...
If that is the case, the webmaster and Hong Zhiyou are most likely accomplices.
“No, it’s impossible.
"The teacher and the mentor are like brothers, and they share a friendship of life and death. How could he possibly help Yu Zecheng..."
As Li Ya frowned and muttered, his eyes became sharper and sharper:
“It’s not impossible.
"Wu Jingzhong is obsessed with money, and Yu Zecheng is his money-maker.
"For money, betraying brothers..."
Thinking of this, Li Ya slammed his fist on the table.
Immediately.
He took a deep breath.
Gotta calm down.
Judging from the records in the book, the reason why Ma Kui became the "Emei Peak" was largely because he was secretly investigating the affairs of the stationmaster and Mu Liancheng.
You can't act rashly.
One is that the intelligence is questionable.
It’s not just one or two days since Shangbo and his gang have been falsifying intelligence to make money.
What if this was a trap set by the Party or Lu Qiaoshan to sow discord between him and Wu Jingzhong? This was entirely possible.
Unless you can get the original.
It proves that Yu Zecheng and Wang Cuiping are indeed suspects.
Otherwise, it's all just speculation.
Without evidence, you can't convict someone.
Why did Magui die?
Why failed.
Judging from Ma Kui's files.
If he was wronged, a big part of the reason was that he had no solid evidence and was repeatedly beaten back by others, which led to his loss of life in the end.
Li Ya would not do such a stupid thing.
Thinking of this, he picked up the phone and called Xie Ruolin:
"Old Xie, I want to buy some information from you.
“About Jinhai.
"great, see you tomorrow."
……
Inside the fish restaurant.
Xie Ruolin was picking his teeth. The three of them finished their meal and were not in a hurry to leave.
“Thank you.
“People in your circle are not honest. If someone asks about this intelligence, such as Lu Qiaoshan and Li Ya, it will be very troublesome.
"These two are related to you." "You have to think of a way."
Yu Zecheng took a sip of tea.
“I have no comment on business matters.
"Either he kills me, or it's over.
“We have worked together so many times, you should know my character.
“Nothing can destroy my faith in money.
"Including death...death."
Xie Ruolin leaned sideways in his chair, his chin slightly raised as he spoke proudly.
“I feel relieved when you say this.
“However, I feel that this matter still needs to be planned.
"This information is too important to leave any room for luck.
“I’m very worried that someone will go find that Lao Shang. According to your business rules, he will probably sell it again.
"Even if the foundation and oral account are sold to someone like Li Ya, it will be a big trouble."
Yu Zecheng said worriedly.
Seeing Xie Ruolin looking at him with a radiant face, he quickly waved his hand and said:
“Don’t look at me like that, I’m not a red ticket.
"I just don't want to cause trouble."
"Old Yu is right. We need to be careful about this matter." Hong Zhiyou echoed.
Once this information falls into Li Ya's hands.
That would cause a lot of trouble.
Not to mention that Yu Zecheng is very troublesome.
If many things involving Ma Kui and Liu Xiong were linked together, it was possible that both the stationmaster and himself would be implicated.
"Can we let Old Shang meet Lu Qiaoshan?" Hong Zhiyou suggested.
"Old Lu?
"Lu Qiaoshan has no connection with him, and things like this are mostly handled by Sheng Xiang. It's too difficult to get Old Lu out." Yu Zecheng frowned.
“What’s so difficult about this.
"Didn't you say that Lu Qiaoshan and Li Ya are mortal enemies?
"Get some dirt on Li Ya.
"It would be best if it's from Yancheng. I'll go to the black market and spread the word that Lao Shang has information about Li Ya in Yancheng. Lu Qiaoshan will definitely ask about it.
“But the prerequisite is that you have to stabilize Shengxiang.
“Leave him no time to run errands for Lu Qiaoshan.
"Meeting up and having...a meal shouldn't be a big problem."
Xie Ruolin said with a smile.
"Where can we find any negative information on Li Ya?" Yu Zecheng asked.
“It’s fake.
“Before the high-ranking officials of the Ministry of National Defense got involved in the intelligence trade, 60 percent of the intelligence in this business was fake.
“My method of forging things was taught to me by Lao Shang himself.
"I don't know much about Li Ya. You guys need to provide me with the information."
Xie Ruolin raised his hand with a relaxed look.
"It's easy to clean up Li Ya's negative materials.
“First, the matter of Yuan Peilin.
"Second, disrupt the transportation of military supplies.
“Third, it includes the assassination of Lin Tai and the loss of Hu Zongnan’s medicine.
"Each of these is very serious and could easily arouse suspicion.
“It was only because Jianfeng insisted on protecting it that it was not exposed.
"Lao Yu, you are an expert, you should edit it, it's better to implement it now."
Hong Zhi analyzed one by one.
"Row."
Yu Zecheng took out a pen and paper from his pocket and started writing quickly.
“Telegram.
“November 6th.
"Shenhai, Chiang is secretly transporting military rations to Fu Zuoyi's troops in the 12th War Zone. Fu's troops may attack Zhangjiakou today, so we must delay them.
“Telegram.
"Shen Hai, Mr. Shen is about to go to Beijing. I have learned that Mao Wanli has deployed an assassination plan in Tianjin. We must do everything we can to ensure Mr. Shen's safety."
……
Yu Zecheng wrote several copies in a row, checked them carefully, and handed them to Hong Zhiyou.
"almost.
"It's fake news, that's enough."
Hong Zhiyou took a look at it and handed it to Xie Ruolin with a smile.
It was all fake news. Xie Ruolin was too lazy to read it and just put it in his pocket:
"Okay, leave the rest to me."
"Old Xie, you need to contact Shang Bo. Li Ya will be able to find you soon. Don't forget that he has already become suspicious of you about the drug batch number incident last time. You have to be careful." Hong Zhiyou reminded him.
"Hey, the stuff poured into the black market has passed through who knows how many people's hands. If he wants to use this to suspect me, then just investigate it slowly. It won't be my turn in eight or ten years." Xie Ruolin said with a disdainful smile.
“As for how to hand it over to Lao Shang, I will naturally not show up.
"Do not worry.
“There are many gods in this circle, including the Secret Service, the Party Communication Bureau, and the Red Ticket Bureau.
"Someone will leak this news to Lao Shang.
"The deep sea.
"The most popular person in Jinhai right now is Li Ya, so it would be strange if Lu Qiaoshan didn't take the bait."
Xie Ruolin smiled.
"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you." Yu Zecheng took out US dollars from his briefcase, paid for the meal and delivered part of the money for the intelligence.
"I'll give you the rest, Old Xie, another day." Yu Zecheng said.
Seeing that Xie Ruolin was a little unhappy, he patted his shoulder:
"Zhiyou will guarantee it, and I won't give you any less."
"Row.
"With Secretary Hong as my guarantor, I wouldn't worry even if it's 20,000 dollars, let alone the remaining 2,000 dollars."
Xie Ruolin smiled, stood up and left with his bag.
After Hong Zhiyou and Yu Zecheng parted ways, they drove to an inconspicuous little hotel:
"Boss, is there anyone looking for Boss Xue today?
"Yes, he said he has something important to report to you."
The boss replied.
"Okay, got it." Hong Zhiyou handed him two dollars.
……
The next day.
Li Ya drove his car and got stuck in traffic on Xie Ruolin's way to work early in the morning.
"Lao Xie."
When Xie Ruolin passed by, he shouted through the slit of the car window.
Is he fucking mentally ill...Xie Ruolin pretended not to hear and quickly walked into the building.
He likes dealing with all kinds of people.
But he is not crazy enough to openly contact people from the Bureau of Secrets in the territory of the Party Communications Bureau.
Doesn't this give people something to talk about?
Li Ya shook his head and let out a depressed sigh.
If he hadn't been holding it in all night and was in urgent need of the documents, he wouldn't have come here to get stuck.
Forget it, let’s talk about it tonight.
Back at the station, Gao Yuan came over quickly:
“Captain Li, Lu Qiaoshan is here.
"I just got here this morning. The coffee is already brewed, and the stationmaster is about to hold a meeting to announce the appointment."
"Yeah, I smell it." Li Ya nodded.
"Have Secretary Hong and the others arrived?"
He frowned and asked again.
"arrive.
"There is a regular meeting at the station. He usually goes out to buy some fruit. I guess it will be here soon." Gao Yuan replied.
Hong Zhiyou came back after buying some fruits.
He took out a note written in secret code.
He quickly entered the office, found a copy of Journey to the West from the bookcase, and translated the numbers on it:
“Li Qing’s search for Yu’s hometown was unsuccessful.
"I went out to Maoerduo Hutong at around 9 o'clock last night. I don't know what I saw specifically. I returned home at 10:10.
"We set out half an hour earlier this morning, heading in the opposite direction. The details of our business are unknown."
Three lines of words.
Hong Zhiyou has already obtained the information he wanted.
The information was left by Gao Yuan.
In order to make it easier for Li Ya to use him, Gao Yuan rented a bungalow about 100 meters away from Li Ya.
Gao Yuan only needs a telescope, and whether Li Ya goes out after get off work every day is under Gao Yuan's surveillance.
Although this is time-consuming and laborious, it is also dangerous.
But for Gao Yuan, it was a willing thing.
A gentleman will die for his friend. Hong Zhiyou has given him everything. What does this little thing matter?
“Cat Ear Alley.
“Chambeau’s residence.
"In a hurry to meet someone in the morning?"
Hong Zhiyou was about to pick up the phone when he remembered that there were surveillance cameras installed. He went straight to the stationmaster's office, closed the door, picked up the phone and dialed Xie Ruolin's office landline before Wu Jingzhong arrived.
"Hey, Lao Xie, did Li Ya come to see you this morning?" he asked.
From the other end came Xie Ruolin's curse.
Hong Zhiyou hung up the phone and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling:
“Old Yu has really bad luck.
“This can be hit.”
Then, he changed his mind and felt that this was inevitable, it was just a matter of time.
Li Ya is tracking down Yu Zecheng.
If no clues can be found in the information and documents on the site, sooner or later they will definitely resort to these black market dealers.
It seems that it was right to prepare last night.
"Zhiyou, is Qiaoshan here?" Wu Jingzhong asked.
"We're here." Hong Zhi nodded.
"Notify everyone to start the meeting immediately." Wu Jingzhong ordered.
"Yes!"
Hong Zhiyou immediately called the heads of each department to inform them.
When Hong Zhiyou arrived at the door of the conference room, Lu Qiaoshan was standing there looking around.
"Old Lu, why are you wearing this?"
Hong Zhiyou looked at him and asked with a smile.
Lu Qiaoshan is wearing a military uniform today.
"Hey, I just came here from the Security Command early this morning. You know I'm in charge of that place too. Commander Chen has strict rules, and I don't even have time to change my uniform.
"How about it, this outfit is pretty good, isn't it?"
Seeing Li Ya coming from the other side, Lu Qiaoshan's originally gloomy voice rose octaves, fearing that Li Ya couldn't hear it.
“More than good!
“Working part-time in the Security Command’s Inspection Office was a privilege only available to station chiefs when Boss Dai was around.
"Old Lu, you can be considered to have returned home in glory this time.
"It would be even more perfect if it could be matched with colonel's shoulder straps."
Hong Zhiyou also praised him generously.
“Don’t worry, brother, it will happen sooner or later.
"I'm a clerk on both sides, so what can't I do to gain merit?"
Lu Qiaoshan smiled proudly.
"That is.
"Let's go in. The stationmaster and the others are waiting."
Hong Zhiyou smiled.
"You go in first, I'll slow down a bit."
Lu Qiaoshan glanced at Li Ya, who had a gloomy face, and whispered.
Well, this is going to be a fight.
We started working on the first day, and there was only Luqiao Mountain.
