Hearing Liu Datong's words, Ning Zhiheng was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Tell me about this person's identity first?"
Liu Datong said on the other end of the phone, "This man is called Dai Daguang, he's thirty-six years old. He used to be a gang leader in Nanjing, and now he's the owner of a trading company called Xinghe Trading Company in the south of the city. He has some influence and is considered a prominent figure in the south of the city. Guo Ruxue is his mistress!"
"Is that really the case?" Ning Zhiheng asked.
“That’s true. The jewelry store owner has known Dai Daguang for many years and wouldn’t mistake him!” Liu Datong added.
"Where is this boss now?" Ning Zhiheng pressed.
"I'm sending someone to take him back to the police station now. Officer Ning, you're so wise! When I showed him the portrait, he pretended not to recognize me, but I saw through his act and gave him a good talking-to before he finally told the truth!" Liu Datong said admiringly.
Ning Zhiheng had long guessed that this person was definitely not an ordinary person and had considerable power. Merchants would inevitably have some reservations. Based on the principle of making money through harmony and avoiding trouble, they would most likely conceal the truth. That's why they asked Liu Datong to bring more people, in case things got really bad, they would resort to force.
Now that Liu Datong has brought everyone back to the police station, it's probably for the best, to prevent this person from tipping off Dai Daguang outside.
"Where are you now?" Ning Zhiheng asked.
"I've brought some men with me to find out Dai Daguang's whereabouts. Should I bring Dai Daguang back with you?" Liu Datong asked.
Ning Zhiheng chuckled and said, "Don't be greedy for credit and act rashly. This Dai Daguang is very likely a Japanese spy, and this matter is of great importance! You just need to find out his whereabouts. Tonight, I will personally go and meet this Boss Dai. Once you find his location, notify me immediately! Remember, don't alert him!"
"Yes, I won't alert anyone! Don't worry, I know what to do!" Liu Datong replied repeatedly.
Ning Zhiheng put down the phone, a surge of excitement welling up inside him. This Dai Daguang must be in contact with Tian Liqun, and was sent by Tian Liqun to find the family crest seal! Finally, another target has been uncovered.
Back in the interrogation room, Ning Zhiheng had no intention of interrogating the Zuo siblings any further. After all, he had already figured out who was behind it all, and if he tortured the Zuo siblings again, they might develop resentment, which would be detrimental to winning them over in the future.
He then returned to the interrogation room and, looking at the three Zuo siblings, said, "Today's interrogation is now concluded!"
At this point, he realized he might have missed something, and frowned as he said, "By the way, we've been dealing with each other for quite a while now, but I don't think you still know who I am, do you?"
The Zuo siblings were also puzzled. This young man was not wearing a policeman's black uniform, but a Zhongshan civilian outfit. He had not revealed his identity since they met.
At first, they also thought he was a police chief or something similar. However, seeing how these police station leaders treated him with such fear and respect, it didn't seem like him at all. They had a feeling that this cold young man in front of them was definitely not an ordinary person!
Judging from today's arrest operation, Marco, who took action today, was simply too amazing. Everyone was agile, especially the two who subdued Zuo Rou. They were definitely top-notch experts. Zuo Rou, with all her skills, didn't even have a chance to fight back before being easily defeated.
The entire arrest process was swift and efficient; the three siblings had no chance to resist and were captured without resistance.
The Zuo siblings had dealt with the police quite a bit before and had never taken these men in black leather uniforms seriously. But today, these men were definitely not ordinary police officers, which made the three of them suspicious.
Hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, he looked at him with a puzzled expression, eager to know who this opponent was!
Ning Zhiheng continued, “My name is Ning Zhiheng, the action captain of the Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau of the National Government. My main job is to arrest Japanese spies. Unfortunately, you have now been involved in this spy case. The seal and jade you have been searching for, even at the cost of murder, are important evidence in this Japanese spy case and important clues that our military has been pursuing. You are Chinese, yet you are working for the Japanese. This is treason, the most serious crime!”
You will pay a heavy price for this, and the person behind you, Dai Daguang, is highly likely a Japanese spy. You are aiding and abetting evil, and I hope you understand the seriousness of this matter!
His words struck the three Zuo siblings like a thunderbolt, leaving them completely bewildered.
Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau? Of course they'd heard of this department. While ordinary people might not know, these people certainly did. It was the most terrifying military department in the country, rumored to be the place where no one who went in ever came out alive, and that was indeed true!
How did things get like this! I was just asked to find two jade artifacts, and it's turned into such a huge mess. Now I'm labeled a traitor and a sellout. Is this some kind of scam? My boss, Brother Dai, has also become a Japanese spy. Is this really true?
"How could that be! How could Brother Dai be a Japanese spy? We—we—how could we have become traitors and collaborators! You're talking nonsense! We—!"
Zuo Rou couldn't accept what Ning Zhiheng was saying, but she couldn't explain her siblings' behavior either. In her anxiety, she became incoherent!
Zuo Gang and Zuo Qiang struggled to argue, but with gags stuffed in their mouths, they couldn't finish their defense!
Seeing their performance, Ning Zhiheng could clearly tell that these three people were indeed unaware of the whole matter and were simply following orders and working for their boss!
