"Chris, Dad is doing this for your own good. Dad is afraid that you will get too involved and suffer in the future."
Chris knew all of this.
Of course she knew her father loved her very much.
But in my heart, I couldn't help but mutter, "This isn't a loss, it's a win!"
Seemingly sensing her concern, Chi Heng sneezed more than ten times on the way back.
Instead of going home, he took a detour to the courtyard house where his third uncle lived, where he met up with Jiang Si, Vice Minister Huo, and others.
The plans had changed, and he had to tell them everything that had happened that night, down to the smallest detail.
Uncle Huo frowned deeply after hearing this.
This person is Deputy Director Yuan from the Investigation Department.
The Investigation Department is mainly responsible for overseas intelligence work, and Deputy Minister Yuan is also a veteran comrade. I never expected that he would also be turned!
Fortunately, this person wasn't from their public security system, otherwise all the work they had done before would have been for nothing.
However, circumstances changed, and the arrest operation scheduled for two days later had to be temporarily cancelled.
Otherwise, if we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find these people on the list again.
Speaking of the list, Jiang Si said thoughtfully, "Have you searched the room where Takeda is staying, and the rooms of those men under him carefully?"
She always felt that a cautious person like Takeda, even if he didn't have a list, should at least have some account books or information that could be used against him.
I heard this from Vice Minister Xu.
Back then, they brought hundreds of pages of documents to Vice Minister Xu.
"I've already searched it."
This is also what Chi Heng finds strange. "After Takeda was arrested, Uncle Da and I immediately took action and turned their rooms upside down, but apart from some changes of clothes and daily necessities, there was nothing in their rooms."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si frowned.
Something feels off, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
After Takeda was arrested today, the police officers searched him.
The most useful thing he had was his work certificate from a planning agency in Gaul.
"Do you think he might have hidden the thing in his office?"
"No, his job is just a temporary one, used to conceal his identity. The planning agency hasn't even assigned him a private office."
Jiang Si thought for a moment, "Is it possible that he has another residence in Beijing?"
Chi Heng wasn't entirely sure, but he felt it probably wasn't true.
He also explained why.
After hearing this, Jiang Si felt even more strange.
If there was no other place to stay, not even an office, then where did Vice Minister Xu get those gold bars from?
Jiang Si didn't think that she could control so many people just by using her weaknesses.
A large part of this is probably due to bribery.
Moreover, daily activities, bribery, and special operations all require a large amount of funds.
Take this case for example. Vice Minister Xu had prepared a batch of specific types of steel and other building materials long ago, which would cost a lot of money.
Furthermore, with such strict foreign exchange controls now, it's not very realistic to expect foreign exchange to flow in.
So this money is definitely still in China, and it's all in gold bars.
This can also be seen from Vice Minister Xu's testimony.
Because all their transactions over the past few years have used gold bars.
So where exactly are these materials, funds, and intelligence hidden?
Even after washing up and lying in bed, Jiang Si was still pondering this question repeatedly.
Seeing her frowning, Huo Tingzhou comforted her, "Don't be too anxious. Wait and see. Maybe Chi Heng will have an unexpected gain when he meets that person."
As he spoke, he tidied up all the things scattered on the bed and the floor.
These are all things the two little ones threw away today.
After packing up the things, Huo Tingzhou opened the five-drawer chest against the wall, put all the items in it, and also took out a lock.
Jiang Si: "What are you going to do?"
Seeing this, Huo Tingzhou explained, "I don't know if their gums are itchy, but now they put everything in their mouths to chew on. I plan to take advantage of being home these two days to correct this bad habit of theirs."
"I'll lock these toys away first, so they can't see them and won't think about them anymore."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si couldn't help but chuckle and pointed to the scraps of paper on the ground.
"Then you could also try to correct their bad habit of tearing things up; they've been doing it these past few days..."
"Wait a minute!" Jiang Si suddenly sat up straight. "You just said, lock it up?"
"yes."
"Do you think Takeda might have locked all those things in a bank safe deposit box?"
Jiang Si thought of this because her family had done this business at the bank a long time ago.
Of course, the bulk of the items were hidden in the basement, and opening a safe in the bank was just a cover.
Jiang Si recalls that this service was not open to ordinary people.
The main reason is that ordinary families don't need to open a safe.
After all, this fee isn't cheap.
At that time, the safe they ran was quite large, and the monthly rent was several tens of yuan.
Smaller safes cost about two or three yuan a month. These are mainly rented by government agencies and large state-owned factories, and are generally used to store important documents or ledgers.
As she thought about these things, a scene suddenly flashed through Jiang Si's mind.
When she tore up Takeda's work certificate in the afternoon, Takeda became very agitated.
