Twenty-three military regions across the country, dozens of garrison military regions, and governments of provinces, cities, counties and towns simultaneously carried out arrest operations.
However, the military district waited until the people on the mission left before the troops went in to arrest them.
The government departments went in directly to arrest people.
Because there are few people in government departments whose identities are yet to be determined, it cannot affect the overall situation.
In one day, more than 10,000 military officers and more than 3,000 government officials were arrested across the country, and together with their families, a total of more than 80,000 people were taken away.
The scale of this spy arrest was so huge that all the spies hiding in the dark were shocked.
Some people tried every possible means to find out who had been arrested, and they were all arrested as suspects.
There were quite a few spies arrested for gathering information across the country, and the local police were so busy that they wished one person could do the work of two people.
When Si Jingyu heard about this, he remained calm and his eyes were expressionless, as if this was within his expectations.
Seeing him like this, his subordinates' admiration for him reached its highest point.
At this moment, they decided to follow to the death and kill all criminals who endanger the country and the people.

In an office in Kyoto, two people sat upright.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know."
"Where did they get the evidence?"
"I don't know."
"How are things elsewhere?"
"I don't know."
The man was so angry that he wanted to throw the cup after hearing the answer from the unknown person, but he endured it and didn't throw it in the end.
With so many spies lurking around, everyone is very sensitive now. It would be bad if he threw the cup and aroused suspicion.
He suppressed his anger and growled, "You don't know anything when I ask you. What use are you?"
The person on the other side looked very aggrieved. "The order came directly from above. When I found out, the troops were already arresting people, so I couldn't stop them."
Anyone who interferes will be considered an accomplice.
Anyone who resists arrest will be shot on the spot.
What can he do?
Stupidly delivered to the door?
He was also confused. Where did the higher-ups get the evidence? They arrested people so accurately and none of them was innocent.
It can be said that except for those who did not show up directly, the vast majority were either arrested or sent out on missions and could not be contacted, and the rest were all newly developed.
He now suspected that those missions were all conspiracies, and that those sent out would most likely die.
The current situation is quite unfavorable for them.
I didn’t dare contact anyone or inquire about any news, and the situation felt like it was at a standstill.
He was at a loss as to what to do next.
After thinking for a moment, he asked the man, "Could it be that the plan has been exposed?"
Take Kyoto for example, almost all the children who were exchanged were captured.
Could this be a coincidence?
The man sneered, "How is that possible? Aren't there still some who haven't been caught?"
“But most of them were arrested.”
The man rolled his eyes, "Did they arrest anyone else?"
"Uh... caught."
"So they arrested spies, and they had nothing to do with the plan."
He was one of the planners of that plan. It was such a meticulous and comprehensive plan, all the evidence was destroyed, and the executors were all Japanese. There was absolutely no way the plan could be leaked.
Therefore, he is more inclined to believe that this is a coincidence.
Those people will be arrested, to put it bluntly, because they were not careful in their work and did not clean up the mess thoroughly, and they are really not capable of shouldering the heavy responsibility.
Forget it, just get caught and we’ll just recruit another batch.
For the next batch, he needs to keep a closer eye and not trust his subordinates too much.
After the conversation ended, the other person opened the door and left. Not seeing anyone else outside, they thought their behavior had not been discovered.
Little did they know that under the current sensitive situation, their behavior of having such a long conversation behind closed doors would attract considerable attention.
Especially the way that person looked around after opening the door.
The police who received the report remained silent for a long time and finally contacted Si Jingyu.
The two people's status is too high. The informant only said that the behavior was suspicious but there was no solid evidence. Who would dare to investigate?
In fact, he received countless calls of this kind today, causing the bureau to be seriously short-staffed as all the staff were busy looking for evidence.
"Hey, Ayu."
"What's up?"
"Ayu, I received a report."
"Then?"
"There are two people whose behavior is suspicious. I need you to investigate."
"Who?"
"Wait a minute."
The police officer put down the phone, looked outside the door, closed the window, and leaned under the table to look for the telephone line. After making sure there was no eavesdropping device, he picked up the phone.
"Hey, Ayu, are you still there?"
Si Jingyu: "...Yes, go ahead."
"Just those two."
"Which two?"
"The two your grandfather praised, one in politics and one in the military, the two with whom they have an average relationship."
"I see. I'll check it out. Just pretend you don't know about it."
"OK."
The police officer hung up the phone with satisfaction, thinking that those two were too careless. They had an ordinary relationship, yet they talked for so long with the door closed in the office. Who else could he suspect if not you?
Why not choose home?
No, you can’t choose your home either. Visitors must register. How can you bring someone home who has an ordinary relationship with you?
That's strange, is there nowhere to go?
The police don’t know the truth about themselves anymore.
All those secret places were exposed.
They had originally agreed to have a detailed discussion outside, but as soon as the car arrived nearby, they noticed people monitoring those locations, so they had to pretend to pass by and drove away.
They didn't dare to make phone calls, fearing that once the call was connected, the person on the other end would no longer be their own.
They couldn't find a suitable place, couldn't make phone calls, and had to exchange information, so they chose the office.
In their opinion, the office is very open and honest. Although their relationship is average, it does not mean that the relationship is bad. It is still okay to communicate occasionally.
Under normal circumstances, no one would think too much about it. However, now is a sensitive period and everyone sees those around them as suspicious, so they are naturally even more suspicious.
**
It was unbelievable that Si Jingyu wrote the names of those two people on the paper.
Could they really be the masterminds behind this?
He thought of Liang Daguo and the QA who informed Liang Daguo. Could it be one of them?
If it was really them, it would make sense that Liang Daguo's affairs were exposed.
QA is not the phonetic abbreviation of their names.
So QA is done by someone else?
Or is it that QA is not the abbreviation of their Chinese country's name, but the abbreviation of their island country's name?
Are they islanders?
If you think about it carefully, it is not impossible that the person who came up with the plan to exchange children may himself be the beneficiary of the exchange.
Si Jingyu circled the names of the two people, and before he knew it, he had scribbled their names beyond recognition.
He is very angry.
He could not suppress his anger at the thought that the country had been infiltrated more deeply than he had imagined.
Thinking that he had never doubted them, and that the senior leader and grandfather had praised them more than once, praising them as the pillars of the country, he felt a pang of fear.
If their actions today had not been reported, the country would have been finished if they had been promoted further.
Unexpectedly, everyone got it wrong.
Si Jingyu decided to collect their memories tonight. If he had wronged them, he would go and ask for forgiveness.
But if it wasn't an injustice—
