Spy Shadow.

"Old Xu, why are you here?"

Bao Shengqun came over to open the door and saw Xu Lin with a depressed face.

"Go in and talk."

Xu Lin was not polite to Bao Shengqun. After entering, he sat down on the sofa, picked up the kettle next to him, found a cup and tea leaves, and made tea himself.

"Old Bao, your method is very good. I used it and it worked very well. Aarons agreed to cooperate and sold us important information and told us who bought his information."

"It's a pity that he doesn't know this person's real name or where he is. Every time Allens has information, he will send out a signal. The red party will come to the door to do business. They pay half of the deposit first. After verifying the authenticity of the information, Send the other half over."

Before the tea was brewed, Xu Lin began to tell. Bao Shengqun immediately understood that he had failed to catch the person.

If caught, Xu Lin would be busy interrogating and enlarging the results of the war, and would not have time to chat with him.

"It's normal. Intelligence transactions are different from others. Buyers attach great importance to their own safety, especially the red party. They will not let an uncontrollable intelligence businessman know their true identity."

Bao Shengqun answered, and Xu Lin nodded: "You are right. I captured Anluns yesterday and sent him back in the evening. He also agreed to cooperate and sent out a signal. Unfortunately, the Red Party did not show up today. .”

It's just that the Red Party didn't show up. Yesterday, Bao Shengqun sent an emergency telegram to Lao Gai when he returned. If the Red Party shows up again, it would be their dereliction of duty.

Xu Lin had no doubts about Bao Shengqun's truth. He never imagined that the very person who asked him to complain in person would betray this important information.

"The Reds will never show up again."

Bao Shengqun said with certainty, and Xu Lin also knew that the Red Party was coming and had been here a long time ago. If they did not show up today, they would basically not come again tomorrow.

He left one percent hope, purely for self-comfort.

"I understand, Old Bao, there must be a Red Party spy within us, and he is hiding very deep. He must have sabotaged my operation this time."

Xu Lin gritted his teeth. The last time he went to Xi'an, it was this traitor who caused him to return without success.

This time he finally had the opportunity to catch the Red Party, but he destroyed it again. Now Xu Lin didn't want to catch the Red Party, but wanted to find the traitor.

If he finds him, Xu Lin will torture him to death.

"I already knew that."

Bao Shengqun smiled faintly, of course there was a traitor, and he was the traitor. Unfortunately, Xu Lin could not know the truth.

Xu Lin came to him to tell him this. It was obvious that he had never doubted him at all.

In fact, it was true. Bao Shengqun helped Xu Lin come up with this idea, and the effect was very good. He didn't expect that the person who came up with the idea turned around and sold him.

"Brother Bao, please help me. Let's find this traitor together. Then I will intercede with the bureau chief. If you don't want to stay at the headquarters, I will help you find a branch station. No matter where it is, as long as you ask me I’ll definitely help you do it.”

Xu Lin's attitude is very sincere. He understands Bao Shengqun and does not have much desire for power.

But it is different when going to the branch station. When Bao Shengqun goes to the branch station, he must be the station manager. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Outside, he is the number one and can do whatever he wants.

"Old Xu, it's not that I won't help you. In fact, I checked before but couldn't find him. At first I suspected that he was in the General Affairs Department, then I suspected that he was in the Inspectorate, then I suspected he was in the Operations Department, and finally, the Intelligence Department , the Inspectorate, and the Telecommunications Department are all under my suspicion."

Bao Shengqun shook his head slowly. He did this deliberately to lure Xu Lin and let him conduct a large-scale investigation within Zhongtong.

It's not enough to just investigate general affairs. The more investigations there are, the more panicked others will become and have no intention of doing serious work.

"You have doubts again."

Xu Lin's eyes widened. He had no doubts about Bao Shengqun's words. In fact, he had many doubts now.

Like this time, he suspected that the problem lay in the interrogation office. After all, the people in the interrogation office knew the most about his arrest of Aarons.

As for what happened last time, if the traitor was intentional, he could still find out the situation from the General Affairs Office in the interrogation room. The last time they went to Xi'an and the General Affairs Office was a joke.

It was said to be a secret, but it turned out to be a secret that everyone knew.

"That's right, I just doubted it."

Bao Shengqun smiled, picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Old Xu, we need to investigate the traitor, but it is not suitable to make a big show of it. Your investigation of the general affairs this time has offended the inspectorate. If you continue to investigate, it is very likely that everyone will be arrested." Offended, although Director Ye is in power, not everyone listens to Director Ye."

Xu Lin suddenly frowned.

He felt uncomfortable hearing these words, but he understood that Bao Shengqun meant well and was telling the truth.

After Old Ghost Xu fell, Ye Feng took over and replaced several division chiefs, but after all, he did not replace all the division chiefs. Even before, not all division chiefs were Old Ghost Xu.

Zhongtong is such a large yamen, and it is impossible for others to completely ignore it.

Besides, neither Old Ghost Xu nor Ye Feng are the chief directors, they are all deputy chiefs.

"Old Bao, I understand your good intentions, but this traitor is too harmful. I must find him first, otherwise there will be more losses in the future."

After a while, Xu Lin shook his head gently.

An internal investigation will definitely offend people. Who wants to be investigated, and who has nothing wrong with him?

During his last investigation, he found out that there were a lot of bugs in the general affairs department. They relied on the general affairs department and ate their mouths full of oil. The three they caught were just too ugly to look at.

Just because people haven't been arrested doesn't mean they're fine.

Xu Lin reported all these to Ye Feng, and at the same time offended the entire General Affairs Office.

Xu Lin had no choice. He was in the Intelligence Department, and there was a traitor in the bureau, which had the greatest impact on him. If he wanted to do well in the Intelligence Department in the future and make Ye Feng trust him more, he had to find this traitor.

Even if it offends people, he will not hesitate.

Xu Lin knew very well that his backstage was Ye Feng. As long as Ye Feng was around, no one could do anything to him.

So what if you offend other people?
The key is Ye Feng's attitude.

If Ye Feng wants to always trust him, he must do things well. Knowing this traitor is a great achievement, and it will also allow him to investigate with peace of mind in the future without worrying about leaks.

Two leaks left him empty-handed twice, each time one step away from the Red Party, only to be disappointed in the end.

He didn't want to feel this way again.

"You're right, but I'm a casualty and can't help you much. As for being transferred outside, it's not necessary. If the director really doesn't want me to stay at the headquarters, he can send me to other places, but he can't let me leave Chongqing. Or I can find a way to transfer myself away from Zhongtong."

Bao Shengqun shook his head gently. This would force him to go to other places, so he would definitely not do it.

"Old Bao, I'm just talking. If you don't want to leave Chongqing, that's fine. I'll find a way for you in the future to let the bureau chief promote you again."

Seeing Bao Shengqun's resolute attitude, Xu Lin didn't ask the reason and just said it casually.

However, he knew very well that even if Ye Feng's impression of Bao Shengqun changed, it would not be possible for Bao Shengqun to occupy an important position.

The reason is very simple. The relationship between Bao Shengqun and Xu Laogui is too close.

Ye Feng was magnanimous in retaining Bao Shengqun, and letting him regain power was not possible.

"Lao Xu, please don't make things difficult for us."

Bao Shengqun smiled and shook his head. He knew his situation better, and he never thought about taking an important position again.Old ghost Xu stepped down and the Japanese were about to be finished. Especially since his wife was pregnant again, his desire for revenge was not as strong as before.

If he had not been influenced by the Red Party's books, he would have to help the Red Party again, and it would not matter if he was not allowed to reunify in the Central Committee.

"You are still free and easy."

Xu Lin sighed. He admired this most about Bao Shengqun. He could accept it no matter where he was asked. Even if he didn't have any real power and couldn't make money, he still went to work every day and never complained.

Others might think that Bao Shengqun would be unwilling, but Xu Lin understood that Bao Shengqun really didn't care about this.

If you had cared about it, you would have asked him for help a long time ago. This time he offered it, but Bao Shengqun refused. It can be seen that he did not care about these things.

"What can I do if I'm not free and easy? At least I'm not downgraded and my salary is high."

Bao Shengqun smiled, his salary is not low, but he is not a person who relies on salary.

The money he made before was enough for him to live without worries for a lifetime.

"I really can't get rid of legal currency. I still need to keep more gold and silver dollars. U.S. dollars are also fine. They are better than legal currency anyway."

Speaking of this, Xu Lin complained that the purchasing power of French currency was so strong when it first came out. At its peak, one hundred French currency could even buy two cows.

It's good now, it's not even enough to buy a chicken.

They have long since not wanted legal currency, and many people have asked for silver dollars to be issued to them. Unfortunately, the superiors do not agree. The result is that every time legal currency is issued, everyone is busy exchanging gold and silver dollars.

No one wants to keep the increasingly worthless fiat currency anyway.

"Indeed, the higher-ups don't care about the life and death of the people. The more they print, the less valuable the legal currency in the hands of the people is. Luckily for you and me, we have a way to exchange it for gold bars."

Bao Shengqun smiled slightly. There was nothing he couldn't say. The above had gone too far and plundered people's wealth by printing money continuously.

Except for a few top aristocratic families, who has no objection?
They are okay, after all, their level is not low, and they can exchange it for what they want with legal currency. But ordinary people are miserable. They don't have much money, and they can't exchange for anything. If they don't exchange it, they will wait for the value to depreciate.

Many people immediately went to buy food after receiving the money, but they did not dare to put it in their hands.

"The salary will be paid in two days, don't forget to change the money then."

Xu Lin got up and chatted with Bao Shengqun for a while. He felt much better.

Xu Lin believed that he would be able to find that damn traitor.

Isn't he just a traitor? No matter how well the mouse hides, he can't hide from the cat's nose.

He is the cat and the traitor is the mouse.

Back in the office, Xu Lin immediately took out all the clues about the traitor, including everything that happened a long time ago.

There is a lot of information, including the initially suspected traitor, the person found, etc.

Especially the interrogation materials about He Yadong.

The traitor was first discovered when Yan He's team was monitoring the Red Party. Yan He and the others caught a Red Party member, but the level was too low and their knowledge was limited.

The red party member revealed his top line, and Yan He led people to monitor him.

As a result, there was an accident during surveillance. A fire broke out at their surveillance point, which almost burned Yan He to death. Then the Red Party was alerted and ran away.

Later, the traitor of the Red Party was found killed in the safe house, completely useless.

At that time, Old Ghost Xu was extremely angry and suspected that the traitor was in Yan He's team, so he ordered a detailed investigation.

Judging from the surface, it is most likely that the traitor is indeed in Yan He's team. Xu Laogui did nothing wrong and was very decisive. He killed everyone in Yan He's team and imprisoned Tan Wenbo's team in Wuhua Prison.

At that time, they were still at the division level, and there were only three groups in the Intelligence Section. They abandoned one group directly. Old Ghost Xu was very courageous.

It was this handling that paved the way for future mistakes.

Xu Laogui personally ordered that eight red party members with tough mouths be transferred to use American instruments to make them speak. As a result, the news was leaked and made it into the newspapers.

Xu Laogui had no choice but to transfer the people to Wuhua Prison. That night Tan Wenbo launched a riot and rescued the eight red party members.

After that, Tan Wenbo and his men disappeared, and they don’t know where they are now.

Jiang Wan, the intelligence section chief at the time, found out that He Yadong had sent things before the incident in Wuhua Prison, and also found out that he and Tan Wenbo had chatted alone.

Afterwards, it was discovered that He Yadong had an acquaintance in the bus class and was driving an escort vehicle.

Under severe torture, He Yadong admitted that he was a member of the Red Party and that his online contact was Tan Wenbo.

This is what Xu Lin is looking at now, especially He Yadong's confession.

He said that Tan Wenbo had already incited him to rebel, and no one else knew whether he had incited him to rebel. He worked for Tan Wenbo, and Tan Wenbo would give him money.

Later, Tan Wenbo went to jail and they stopped contacting him.

This time he was short of money, so he went to the prison to tell Tan Wenbo about the transfer of eight red party members, and he guessed through the driver of the escort vehicle that the people were being transferred to Wuhua Prison.

Tan Wenbo is right there, which is more convenient.

That was all the confession. Xu Lin didn't believe it. It was too monotonous. It was just asking questions and talking. Tan Wenbo was his go-to person. What information he had provided to Tan Wenbo was not mentioned in it.

He was instigated to rebel. Even though Tan Wenbo had done to him and taught him, it still didn't exist.

Xu Lin understood that Jiang Wan was under great pressure at that time, and he needed this confession to give Xu Laogui an explanation. Regardless of whether He Yadong was a real Red Party member, Jiang Wan must be one.

He Yadong probably died unjustly. He was not a red party member.

It's a pity that both he and Jiang Wan died.

If He Yadong is not, then who is the Red Party?
Xu Lin looked at the document again. Only He Yadong and his team had been to Wuhua Prison, and He Yadong was the only one who had communicated with Tan Wenbo.

Who else is it?

Xu Lin was very confused. On the one hand, he was suspicious, but on the other hand, all the evidence pointed to He Yadong.

Tan Wenbo is the only one alive now, but unfortunately no one knows where he went.

I don’t even know whether he is dead or alive now.

After looking at it for a while, Xu Lin sorted out all the files. His head hurt from looking at it, but he didn't have the slightest clue.

Take a rest first and wait for the call from Allens.

If the red party doesn't show up today, they will take this information to Bao Shengqun tomorrow and ask him to help find this traitor.

Xu Lin has always admired Bao Shengqun's ability. Even though Bao Shengqun is his predecessor, he does not pose any threat to him. He is most at ease with such a person.

Thank you Ye Biling for another 100 starting coin reward.
