Chapter 199 Testing Each Other
Lianyi remembered that among the three people she had glanced at quickly that day, only one was on the assassination list. This time, four people died directly. She wondered who the unlucky guy she had never seen was.
Sure enough, that night, she was invited by Miyata to meet him.
Miyata's face was gloomy, and he stared at Lianyi with a dim gaze, and asked unhappily:
"Are you pretending to join me, but actually using me to complete the Kuomintang's assassination plan?"
Lianyi said that she was innocent:
"Mr. Miyata, we are not fools. If I really did this, I can fool you once, but you won't be fooled the second time. The Kuomintang has not eliminated their suspicion of me, and this time is also their test of me.
Think about it, the information I obtained accidentally was too coincidental, and they were also afraid that I had joined forces with you and this was a trap, so they killed all the Japanese officers who went there. If you had doubts like you did just now, you would definitely not let me go.
Then doesn't it just prove that I have joined forces with you, and the purpose of providing intelligence this time is to regain their trust, so what's the point of you hiring me?"
After hearing Lianyi's words, Miyata's eyes flashed. As a person also in charge of intelligence, he knew very well that Lianyi was right. If it were him, he would do the same.
"Since the sacrifice has already been made, I will not pursue it any further, but what if you still cannot gain the trust of the National Party?"
Miyata asked, frowning.
"I attended the class reunion and actually got some other information. I will pass it on when the time is right! It would be better if Mr. Miyata doesn't see me recently. They should be monitoring me for a while."
"Got it, go out the back door!"
Miyata waved his hand and sent Lianyi away. Things had come to this point, and all he could do was keep an eye on Lianyi and wait.
We are all in the intelligence business, and we are all familiar with each other's routines. Suspicion is ingrained in our bones. Especially at times like this, whoever can keep calm will win.
On the other side, Instructor Jiang, Adjutant Wei and Yilin were also reading the report of the assassination operation. It was obvious that the mission was completed very well. Two of the four Japanese officers were on the assassination list, and the other two were shot by them incidentally. Anyway, they were not good people.
"The operation was very successful. Some of our colleagues were seriously injured, but no one was killed."
Adjutant Wei was very satisfied with the operation.
"But I think it was too successful. Was it designed jointly by Wu Lianyi and Japan to eliminate our suspicion of Wu Lianyi?"
Yilin remained skeptical.
"Although she gave us the information, we also arranged for experienced people to keep watch. We did not tell Wu Lianyi the specific time and manpower of the operation, but we cannot rule out the possibility you mentioned."
Adjutant Wei spoke based on the facts.
"To be on the safe side, let her continue to sleep!"
Irene said immediately.
"Yes, if she really has a problem and continues to sleep for a long time, the Japanese intelligence personnel will not be able to bear it."
Instructor Jiang finally made the decision.
As the situation in Pingbei became increasingly chaotic, the Japanese became somewhat unscrupulous. They began to amass wealth on a large scale, hoping to plunder all the wealth on this land before evacuating.
Lianyi knew that after the assassination attempt, she was under surveillance by the Kuomintang again, so she kept a low profile and rarely left school. She only attended a class reunion and a charity fundraiser in January.
The next day, she sent another piece of information to Adjutant Wei.
"Citibank has recently been raising its deposit interest rates to attract politicians and big businessmen in Pingbei City to deposit their money in the bank, while Japan is secretly creating inflation, causing currency depreciation and gradual price increases, in order to make money."
Adjutant Wei felt a little bad after seeing the news. The Japanese wanted to destroy Pingbei's economy before evacuating. If the Kuomintang wanted to curb this situation, they had to fill the hole, which required real money.
Instructor Jiang took a deep breath and said to Adjutant Wei:
"In order to pass the mess to us, Japan secretly teamed up with Citibank to destroy Pingbei's economic system through this method. Japan is the last madness, and the United States behind Citibank is after money."
"We must stop this. Prices have been rising sharply recently, and there are already signs of this happening."
Adjutant Wei looked at the materials in his hand and agreed with Instructor Jiang's words.
"Economic warfare is not our strong point. Leave it to someone who is good at it! Write a report and send it up as soon as possible."
"yes!"
"Lian Yi has made a great contribution this time. I've said that she is very perceptive and is good at analyzing intelligence. Contact her and let her use her identity and Wu Lao to continue collecting information in this regard."
Instructor Jiang said directly.
"So she's temporarily leaving the special operations team?"
"Yes, she only has a single line of contact with you. She will not participate in the decapitation operation until the suspicion is eliminated."
"clear!"
When Lianyi went to the wonton stall for lunch, she met the disguised Adjutant Wei. After the latter conveyed the Kuomintang's arrangements for her, he left the wonton stall, leaving Lianyi alone, who wished she could smash the wontons.
Fortunately, she had been prepared. She suddenly disappeared from the Japanese surveillance on a certain day off and did not reappear in the sight of those people until the evening. This time, there was no need for Miyata to summon her. She directly handed over a piece of information.
When Miyata received the list in his hand, his expression changed. It turned out to be the assassination list of the beheading plan.
"Wu only gave you this piece of paper? Did he say anything else?"
"She said that she was taken away by the Kuomintang during the time she was missing. She said that she did not completely gain the trust of the Kuomintang, but she took advantage of this opportunity to see a list. Because she was in a hurry, she only wrote down these names. After returning, she wrote them down from memory and asked me to give them to you as soon as possible."
The subordinate replied immediately.
"Are you sure the information is reliable?"
This is what Miyata is most concerned about.
"Wu said she was worried that this was the second time the Kuomintang was trying to test her, so she asked her superiors to use the information at their discretion."
Lianyi kicked the ball back. Anyway, she had got the information back. Whether it was true or not was up to them to judge. If the Kuomintang found out, she would be dead soon.
"I'll go see my superior in person!"
Miyata was not sure. The death of a defecting intelligence agent was nothing to him, but he was afraid that this was a tactic of the Kuomintang using Wu to make a feint to the east and attack in the west, which would be troublesome.
But three days later, his concerns disappeared because an officer on the list had his throat cut while hanging out with a kabuki. The kabuki fainted beside the officer, and when she woke up and saw her guest lying in a pool of blood, her scream attracted everyone's attention.
"Immediately arrange for people to protect the people on the list."
Miyata finally gave the order. He didn't dare to take the risk. In three months, ten senior officers had died. If this continued, his superiors would not be able to withstand the pressure.
At this time, Lianyi was feeding a little beggar a steamed bun. The little beggar took the bun and immediately handed her a tabloid:
"Pretty sister, this is the newspaper that I sold. Consider it as a reward for the steamed buns you gave me."
See you tomorrow, my dears~
