Looking at Luo Jiana, who was almost unrecognizable and covered in blood, Li Zhiqun couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration. This was the first tough guy he had ever met who could survive for so long among all the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) agents he had captured. It really changed his understanding of CBIS agents.
The military doctor who was examining Luo Jiana stood up and reported to Li Zhiqun: "Director, the prisoner's vital signs have deteriorated drastically. If we don't treat him now, it will be too late!"
Luo Jiana had been in a coma for a long time. Li Zhiqun knew that he could not continue the interrogation. If he continued to torture him, he would surely die. He nodded with a gloomy face. The military doctor quickly began to treat him and worked together with his assistant. The group of people were busy.
Li Zhiqun left the interrogation room and looked at Mi Zijin, the head of the Second Intelligence Section who was in charge of the case, behind him. He instructed, "It seems we miscalculated this time. This guy is really tough. The longer it goes on, the less likely we are to catch his supplier. Keep a close eye on him. As long as you can support the interrogation, keep interrogating him. Dig out as much information as you can."
"Yes, I understand!" Mi Zijin nodded and accepted the order.
Li Zhiqun really couldn't spare the time to interrogate Luo Jiana right now, so he had to leave it to Mi Zijin.
Various departments of the puppet government have begun to relocate to Nanjing. As the person who has been internally appointed as the Minister of Police, he also attended the high-level meeting of the puppet government. Wang Tianhai repeatedly urged him to take over the Ministry of Police as soon as possible and go to Nanjing to handle the relocation matters. Time was very tight and he was overwhelmed. The work of the Special Agent Headquarters had to be put on hold.
A knock sounded at the door of Luo Xingchao's office. Cui Yuanfeng pushed the door open and rushed to Luo Xingchao, reporting in a low voice, "Chief, the middle-aged man that Li Zhiqun brought back from the Shadow Agency isn't in the main jail, but in the dormitory in the backyard. He specifically instructed that he be kept in solitary confinement, and that no one else be allowed to interrogate him. But Li Zhiqun himself hasn't interrogated him yet."
Luo Xingchao pondered for a moment. He knew that Li Zhiqun had been handling a case recently and frequently visited the Shadow Agency. However, Li Zhiqun had previously harbored suspicions about the mole within the Special Agent Headquarters and had kept the information tightly under wraps, so Luo Xingchao had not been able to figure out the specifics. Now, the person brought back from the Shadow Agency must be related to this case.
Is it under special supervision?
"Yes, it was Liu Jianzhi who led the guards. They were all Li Zhiqun's men, and they stayed by his side every step of the way."
Liu Jianzhi was a close confidant of Li Zhiqun and one of the people who accompanied Li Zhiqun during the arrest of Feng Sinian in Nanjing. He was aware of the case, and Li Zhiqun entrusted him with the task of guarding Feng Sinian.
Is it possible to get in touch with this person?
"Yes, Qin San is currently in charge of the chores in the backyard. He can come into contact with Qin San when he is cleaning, delivering meals, or when the prisoners are being exercised, but he is definitely under the surveillance of Liu Jianzhi and his men."
Qin San had always been an important informant for Cui Yuanfeng. Last year, when the Sixth Congress of the puppet government was held, Qin San failed to supervise Fan Zhongfu properly, which led to Fan Zhongfu committing suicide in public.
As a result, the matter escalated significantly. After the meeting, Wang Tianhai severely reprimanded Li Zhiqun, who then dismissed Deng Mingxiang from his post and assigned him to work for the peripheral organization, Haishe. Qin San, the small leader who directly supervised Fan Zhongfu, was also implicated and immediately dismissed from his post. He was almost imprisoned. Later, Luo Xingchao managed to transfer him to the General Affairs Department, where he was put in charge of miscellaneous tasks in the compound.
Luo Xingchao thought for a moment, then asked, "Is this person injured? Are there any signs of interrogation?"
Cui Yuanfeng shook his head and said, "According to Qin San, he looks fine overall. He can walk, sit, and lie down normally. He should be uninjured. There are only some bruises on his face, but they are not obvious. He must not have been in an interrogation room, otherwise he would not have been so relaxed."
Furthermore, Qin San had overheard Liu Jianzhi talking to prisoners; the man spoke with a distinct Shanghai accent, suggesting he was a local.
Luo Xingchao nodded and instructed, "Try to investigate this person as much as possible, and try to find out his identity, even if it's just a name. We need to follow this line to find out about Li Zhiqun's previous actions."
"Yes!" Cui Yuanfeng nodded and accepted the order.
