The downside was the heavy loss of his old core team; more than half of the personnel he had trained over the years were gone. More importantly, the relationship with the Baoding clique soured. Huang Xianzheng swallowed his pride and complained to the bigwigs of the Baoding clique, which immediately increased the pressure on the section chief and led to unprecedented resistance in the military. As a result, several conflicts occurred during his investigations in the military, and there were even casualties. The impact was too bad, and the leader was also complained about by the bigwigs of the Baoding clique several times. This period was also quite a headache for him.

The Baoding faction is deeply entrenched and difficult to shake. It's time to talk to Deputy Director Huang Xianzheng and ease tensions. Fighting will only result in mutual destruction, which is unwise!

Bian Ze nodded repeatedly. Ning Zhiheng's performance was so outstanding that no one had anything to say. Besides, he had a good relationship with Ning Zhiheng and owed him a great favor, so naturally he wouldn't deliberately make things difficult for him.

“Yes, Zhiheng’s performance is too outstanding, and we have no reason to make excuses anymore. By the way, he also requested to change to the latest password. What do you think?” Bian Ze continued.

"Agree to his request. We'll take the codebook with us this time. For safety, we'll fly through Hong Kong and then Shanghai. Let's get it done right away!" The section chief waved his hand dismissively. These were all minor matters, and he didn't care about them.

Ning Zhiheng's requests were all approved, and Yi Huaan and Zuo Rou were notified immediately and flew to Hong Kong the next day.

Ning Zhiheng received Ji Hongyi's report the following afternoon, and he indeed found Dr. Li Wenbo in a hospital in the French Concession.

Ning Zhiheng immediately went to the agreed location to meet them. He arrived at a private room in a coffee shop, where Ji Hongyi and Li Wenbai were talking. When they saw Ning Zhiheng come in, they both stood up.

Ning Zhiheng smiled and nodded, then gestured to Ji Hongyi, who immediately nodded politely to Li Wenbai and left the private room.

Li Wenbai had no idea why Ning Zhiheng was looking for him. He had retreated from Nanshi to the French Concession and quickly found a job at a hospital. Unexpectedly, he was found by Ji Hongyi, the military officer who often delivered medicine to him, and was invited here.

"Major Ning! Did you call for me?" Li Wenbai asked softly.

"Dr. Li, I have something to ask you, which is why I took the liberty of inviting you here. I'm truly sorry to bother you!" Ning Zhiheng said with a smile.

After the two sat down again and exchanged a few pleasantries, Ning Zhiheng asked, "I wonder if Doctor Li still remembers my brother, Miao Yongyi?"

"I remember, I remember!" Li Wenbai nodded repeatedly. How could he not remember! This Major Ning almost caused a huge uproar in order to save Miao Yongyi. Later, he even used his connections to obtain a large quantity of high-quality Western medicine and sent it to various hospitals, saving the lives of countless soldiers in the War of Resistance. His contribution was immense.

Later, the hospital specifically assigned Miao Yongyi to his care, and Li Wenbai naturally remembered the meticulous care he received for Miao Yongyi.

Ning Zhiheng nodded and then asked, "Do you remember, when we were about to leave, there was a middle-aged military officer on the bed to Miao Yongyi's left. I think his rank was major. Do you remember his name?"

Li Wenbai thought back carefully. There were too many wounded in the hospital, so he really couldn't remember them all. However, because of Miao Yongyi, he paid special attention to the patients in Miao Yongyi's ward, so he did remember them.

He thought for a moment and then said, "Are you talking about Major Wang Zhenjiang? He was injured in his left arm, and I performed the surgery on him. He recovered very quickly."

Wang Zhenjiang! That name sounds familiar... Ning Zhiheng's mind raced, and after racking his brains for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out. So he continued, "Do you know which unit he's in?"

"Major Ning, I remember the patient's name. That's necessary for treating the illness, like writing medical orders and dispensing medication as needed. But I don't know which unit it is from," Li Wenbai said with a wry smile.
