Spy Shadow

All seven of them were illiterate before and could not write their own names completely.

They had received cultural training during the training, but unfortunately the time was limited and they didn't know many words so far. Feng Yong was better, but he only knew two to three hundred words. He could barely understand some of the documents given to him.

I will send you a guide. This is your entrance exam. If you pass it, you can follow me. If you don't do well, you can go back and forth wherever you go. I don't raise waste.

Chu Lingyun said softly, his tone was not serious, but it made everyone's hearts tighten.

Except for Feng Yong, the other six people have received high salaries for several months, and their families are counting on them to change their lives and destiny.

Once sent back, they had to revert to their previous status as coolies.

Even if I learn something and find a new job more easily, where can I find such a generous boss? Others only want to squeeze out their value and will never give them such high wages.

yes.

The seven people responded together, with loud voices.

Very well. Ask questions when you encounter something. Don't do things according to your own ideas.

After Chu Lingyun finished speaking, he turned around and left. Wang Sheng hurriedly sent him away.

The seven people wanted to investigate Bao Shengqun. They had learned some crime-solving techniques from Wang Sheng, including tracking and counter-tracking, but their time was limited, so they were asked to investigate a professional agent who had worked in the industry before.

The deputy chief of the animal department is a bit difficult for them.

Therefore, Chu Lingyun requested that no tracking or surveillance be allowed, and only peripheral investigations be conducted.

Even if the difficulty was lowered, it would be easy for them to make mistakes as they had never done anything like this before. Chu Lingyun specially sent Loach to help them and bring them up.

Bao Shengqun didn't know that a simple encounter would attract Chu Lingyun's attention.

After setting up the tasks, Chu Lingyun ignored them.

There is no set time for this task, and their performance will be recorded by Loach.

Time passed slowly, and Chu Lingyun became busy again. Not a task, but a favor.

Changsha Station Director Yuan Shouwang and Chengdu Station Director Fang Yihu first looked for Chu Lingyun after arriving in Nanjing, and both gave them gifts.

Yuan Shouwang gave him the heaviest gift, ten gold bars.

He had just taken up the post of webmaster, so this amount was definitely a lot for him. If he hadn't made some money in the position of deputy section chief, he probably wouldn't have been able to give away so much.

Normally, Yuan Shouwang was Chu Lingyun's old leader, and Chu Lingyun took over his position.

When an old leader comes back, his former subordinates should take the initiative to visit him.

It was just the opposite for the two of them. Yuan Shouwang not only took the initiative to give gifts to Chu Lingyun, but he also didn't act like an old leader.

It's true that he is an old leader, but Chu Lingyun is not his person.

He was speaking in New Year greetings, and Virgo personally helped to recruit the talent, which had nothing to do with him.

And it was thanks to Chu Lingyun that he was promoted to webmaster this time. Without the actions of four groups of consecutive meritorious deeds, his merits were not enough, and he would not have been promoted to the position of webmaster. Without Chu Lingyun punishing Zhao Tianxi, he would not have the position of webmaster.

Yuan Shouwang was very open-minded and did not feel embarrassed because he had led Chu Lingyun before, so he took the initiative to show his kindness.

Fang Yihu gave Chu Lingyun a pistol as the gift with the lowest value.

Not to mention Chu Lingyun, even if he is a Virgo, he does not give away money, but only gives away real specialties. Among all the webmasters, he is the only one.

He has this confidence, seniority, and wide connections. If it weren't for his temper and personality, he would have become a general long ago and would not have entered their military intelligence department.

The gun given by Fang Yihu was good, a German-made Walter butt pistol with eight rounds of ammunition and a special silencer.

This kind of silencer can only make it inaudible from a distance, but it is still very loud up close. It is not the kind of magic gun that can not even be heard in the next room after being equipped with a silencer.

The courtesy is light but the affection is heavy. Chu Lingyun likes this pistol very much.

In the entire department, except for Virgo, he was the only one who received a gift from Fang Yihu to wish him a happy New Year. Neither Xu Yi nor Secretary Qi received it. Fang Yi

The lake is treated differently.

Among the webmasters who came here, Qiao Yuancai visited Chu Lingyun the most often and ran the hardest.

Chu Lingyun established a relationship with the 92nd Army in Peiping. He was on their territory and if something happened, Chu Lingyun helped him speak, which was more effective than Virgo.

After all the webmasters came here, only Chen Shu from Shanghai and Tianjin

Han Xianghui has never approached Chu Lingyun, and Chen Shu has not sent anyone except Virgo. He is senior, capable and has great achievements, so there is nothing wrong with him. Han Xianghui gave gifts to Xu Yi and Secretary Qi for the New Year greetings, but none of the others.

Section Chief, these are just rookies. If I hadn't been watching, something would have happened.

Ni Loach came to Chu Lingyun’s office and reported Feng Yong’s investigation results.

The seven people had no investigative experience, and at most they only had the theories they learned during special training. Their educational level was not high, and they were completely incomparable to professional agents.

Is it a big problem?

Chu Lingyun had been mentally prepared for this. It was completely unrealistic for a few coolies to be compared with his elite agents after three months of training.

It's not a big problem, it's just small problems. Some people stupidly asked my neighbor Bao Shengqun directly about his situation. Fortunately, I stopped him.

Bao Shengqun is an agent. Even if he inquires about his situation from his neighbors, he must not ask directly; let alone ask in such detail.

Make subtle insinuations and let the neighbors speak out on their own initiative so that they won't be suspected.

As long as the problem is minor, Chu Lingyun looked through their investigation results.

Bao Shengqun is Xu Laogui's nephew and son-in-law. This is not difficult to find out. No wonder he raised a young wife and gave birth to a son. He was severely punished by Xu Laogui and used Japanese hands to kill the mother and son.

This is to support his own family and not give him the chance to have an illegitimate child.

Bao Shengqun is not weak in ability. He worked in Wuhua Prison in his early years. Later, he was transferred back by Xu Laogui. He started as an ordinary team member and worked his way up to deputy section chief.

The original Party Affairs Investigation Office was not a department, but a department, called the Party Affairs Investigation Section.

Bao Shengqun was already there at that time, and he was very senior.

According to their investigation, Bao Shengqun used to be a bit arrogant and looked down upon others. Relying on Xu Laogui's relationship and trust, he even contradicted Zhao Zaili, the chief of the operations department.

Tu Fang was his most trusted subordinate. After Tu Fang's incident happened, it hit him hard.

After being demoted to the head of the equipment team of the General Affairs Section, Bao Shengqun's temperament changed dramatically. He was very self-disciplined when working in the department, completely losing his previous pride. He was polite to everyone, including his subordinates.

Bao Shengqun's situation in the Party Affairs Investigation Office was not investigated by Feng Yong and others. They did not have the ability to investigate and would only alert the enemy.

It was Loach who found out these situations through his channels.

From the information we have collected so far, we don’t see anything wrong with Bao Shengqun.

Even for Loach, the things that can be found are limited. Among the things that have been checked so far, there is no sign that Bao Shengqun has the idea of ​​​​revenge on himself.

But he must have investigated himself, there was something wrong with his eyes that day.

The two of them had never met before, so it was impossible to look at him like that. It was obvious that he knew him.

How's the investigation by Ran Wu going?

Chu Lingyun asked again. Feng Yong interceded for Ran Wu and wanted him to follow him. Chu Lingyun asked Ni Loach to conduct a detailed investigation of Ran Wu.

He is a young man with a dull head. He has kept a low profile recently and lives in Feng Yong's house. However, his grades in the army are indeed excellent. If he were not uneducated and had no one to support him, he would still be a platoon leader.

Ni Loach replied, there are many such stupid young people in the army, especially young people.

Chu Yuan was like this back then. If Chu Lingyun hadn't helped him, he would have caused a lot of trouble.

Let Feng Yong bring Ran Wu in, and let them catch the thief first. Wang Sheng will give them clues, so you don't have to worry about it.

Chu Lingyun decided to accept Ran Wu. The number seven always felt bad, not as good as eight.

Virgo has eight great vajras under his command;

Eight great coolies.

yes.

Ni Loach accepted the order. He understood that the section chief was training peripheral subordinates. To put it bluntly, he wanted to train dead soldiers who could do things for him.

Many people do this, it's normal.

The abilities of the eight people still need to continue to be trained. They are no longer required to investigate Bao Shengqun, but they cannot be left idle.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, there are many thieves operating in Nanjing, and they also want to have a good year.

First catch the thief, then some other people, and finally catch the wanted criminal, and use these things to train them.

After Ni Loach left, Chu Lingyun carefully checked Feng Yong and Ni Loach's investigation records.

Bao Shengqun graduated from the police academy in his early years and entered Wuhua Prison after graduation.

Chu Lingyun was no stranger to Wuhua Prison. Where Tan Wenbo had just rioted, eight Red Party comrades also escaped there.

At that time, Mr. Xu had not yet become an official, and Wuhua Prison belonged to Mr. Xu's cousin, Er Chen.

Bao Shengqun met Xu Suzhen by chance and pursued her.

At that time, Bao Shengqun was inconspicuous, just a small jailer. He wanted to rely on Xu Suzhen to change his destiny. After all, Xu Suzhen and Er Chen were related.

Xu Suzhen is a lady, but she just likes Bao Shengqun. In addition, Bao Shengqun's performance is pretty good, so the Xu family reluctantly agreed.

After the two got married, the Party Affairs Investigation Section was established within a few years, and Xu Laogui came to serve as the section chief. Wuhua Prison was officially merged into the Party Affairs Investigation Section, and Bao Shengqun became a member of the Party Affairs Investigation Section.

As soon as Mr. Xu became section chief and needed his own people, he transferred Bao Shengqun out of prison.

Later, he was promoted to deputy section chief by virtue of his meritorious service. Bao Shengqun can be said to be a veteran figure in the Party Affairs Investigation Department. Such a person is demoted to a team leader, but does his job without any complaints and hard work?

Ni Loach's explanation was that he was afraid that he would offend Old Ghost Xu again and kick him out.

Coupled with the death of his only son, he lost his thoughts and became what he is now.

After all, the things he committed before were not big or small, Xu

As a member of the Xu family, how could the old ghost tolerate his son-in-law raising a young wife outside and having illegitimate children?

Without Old Ghost Xu, he is nothing.

The explanation was reasonable, but Chu Lingyun always felt something was wrong.

Bao Shengqun changed so completely that even if his son's death gave him a big blow, he couldn't change completely at once.

Chu Lingyun once learned micro-expressions in order to put on makeup to look more like her.

Micro-expressions express psychology, and he has a certain understanding of psychology. If Bao Shengqun is really completely disheartened and afraid of Old Ghost Xu, his normal reaction is not to bother with anything and just get by.

But he didn't. Instead, he became kinder to his subordinates, harmonious to his colleagues, and gained a lot of good reputation.

This change is probably just superficial, used to cover up Bao Shengqun's heart.

This is psychological speculation.

Psychology was born in the West in the last century, but there were only preliminary concepts. The real development did not form a systematic theory until this century, or even later.

Especially in China, psychology started much later.

People in this era don't know much about psychology, but Chu Lingyun knew that he didn't believe that Bao Shengqun would change so completely, and there must be a reason for Bao Shengqun to do this.

Chu Lingyun didn't know the specific reason.

However, it is probably speculated that Bao Shengqun was an ambitious man. Not having a son was a great blow to people of this era. Many people could not give birth to a son, so they had to have a son of their own if they adopted one.

Only sons can carry on the family line and continue the incense.

This concept was not broken until the new century, and more people preferred to have daughters.

At this time, as in previous dynasties, there are three unfilial piety, the most serious of which is not having children. The death of his son was as much a revenge to Bao Shengqun as killing his father. revenge.

Chu Lingyun narrowed his eyes, and Bao Shengqun deliberately acted like a good guy.

The purpose is not to be noticed, his real intention is revenge.

But revenge requires a target. Who is his target?

The people who killed his wife and son were Japanese, but it was Tu Fang who provided the information to the Japanese.

Tu Fang was definitely his target, but Tu Fang was already dead and was quickly executed by the Military Intelligence Service.

He was the one who arrested Tu Fang. He was the one who imprisoned Tu Fang and confessed about the child. In the end, Old Ghost Xu found out. Could his target be him?

This possibility is absolutely possible, and there are also Japanese people who were killed by the Japanese themselves.

Is there anyone besides them?

Chu Lingyun stood up suddenly, and there was another one.

Old Ghost Xu put him in solitary confinement, leaving him unable to rescue his wife and children. He could only wait for the final bad news. If he wanted to take revenge, Old Ghost Xu was definitely on his revenge list.

Is it possible to take revenge on Old Ghost Xu?

Let’s not talk about the unequal levels between Mr. Xu and Bao Shengqun. Without Mr. Xu, Bao Shengqun would be nothing in the Party Affairs Investigation Department, not even a team member.

I can't do it long enough.

Is he so crazy for revenge?

Chu Lingyun did not recognize the organization, and did not know that the recent incidents in the Party Affairs Investigation Department were placed on his head. If he knew this clearly, he would immediately guess that Bao Shengqun was responsible for all these incidents.

Continuing to look through the information, Bao Shengqun behaved quite well, without any abnormalities.

But the inference just now made Chu Lingyun more and more suspicious that Bao Shengqun was brewing a huge revenge plan.

Loach, please send me the details of all the recent events in the Party Affairs Investigation Department.

Chu Lingyun picked up the phone and called Ni Loach. At present, he only had speculations and needed more clues to verify whether his speculations were true.
