Wu Dinghuai took the letter and read it from beginning to end. Then he exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, so Liu Han was an underground worker before liberation. In that case, Qiu Jingwen's parents were very remarkable revolutionaries. They were district committee leaders at the time."
Wu Dinghuai exclaimed "Ah!" and then looked down for a moment, exclaiming "Ah!" again as he looked.
"Ah, Dr. Jiang Yuping is Japanese? And a top-notch teenage spy before liberation? How is that possible? How old was she back then?"
Liu Han's identity as an underground worker surprised Zhao Le and the two county police officers. Jiang Yuping, who was brought into the investigation team and questioned twice, was described by Liu Han as a top-notch female special agent who had received training in Shanghai before liberation. This seemed to surprise the young Wu Dinghuai and Zhao Le even more.
In their minds, Liu Han was a veteran agent who had infiltrated the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, and had nothing to do with underground workers. They never imagined that he was a traitor and the direct culprit in the murder of Qiu Jingwen's parents!
Shao Jian remained unsurprised by the astonished expressions of his subordinates, offering no explanation. Many matters required further investigation and verification. While the contents of Liu Han's letter were crucial, they still needed further confirmation. He then reiterated the importance of organizational discipline and confidentiality to his men, demanding of several officers, "The contents of this letter are top secret. Not a single word must be leaked until the covert team has thoroughly uncovered and eliminated it."
Wu Dinghuai asked, "Director Shao, should we also keep it a secret from Liang Damin and Secretary Zhou Huaihai?"
Without even considering it, Shao Jian said, "Let's keep it a secret for now. It's not that I doubt them, but I think that if they know the information, it will affect a lot of our work."
After arranging the work, Shao Jian and his driver took a jeep back to the city. When Chen Sheng saw the contents of the letter, he was just as excited and surprised as Shao Jian was: "This information is too important. I will immediately send someone to deliver the letter to the provincial leaders."
After Chen Sheng finished speaking, he looked at Shao Jian and said, "Comrade Shao Jian, your responsibilities are even heavier now. If it is as Liu Han provided, that guy codenamed Butterfly must be dug out. Moreover, we need to find out exactly what this 'Mushroom Project' is."
"Boss, I guarantee I'll complete the task," Shao Jian replied earnestly.
Chen Sheng frowned and shook his head, then looked at Shao Jian and said, "Director Shao, according to the materials you submitted, you spoke with Qiu Jingwen's wife, Jiang Yuping, twice. Do you think she is like Liu Han described in the letter, a top female spy from before liberation? Is she really Japanese?"
"Director Chen, to be honest, after my first conversation with Jiang Yuping, I felt that this woman was not simple. She must have received some kind of special agent training. Now, Liu Yihan suspects that Jiang Yuping was a young female special agent before liberation, and I believe it. Of course, Jiang Yuping's identity still needs further verification. I asked Qiu Jingwen, and he told me that his wife, Jiang Yuping, seems to have unclear memories of the past, and has been suffering from headaches for years. Could it be that her memory has been damaged?"
Chen Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Since Qiu Jingwen has been turned, let him handle this task. After all, Jiang Yuping was younger back then, and there must be a story behind it."
"Director Chen, I understand. I will find an opportunity to explain this to Qiu Jingwen."
The two talked about Jiang Yuping, and then had a thorough discussion about Liu Han's letter.
