"What's going on now?" Xiang Yan asked.
“No, there hasn’t been a sound in the last half hour, but I thought he would make a move soon. I didn’t expect that Tian Liqun was actually Su Yu’s contact. This is very rare in Japanese spy organizations!” Ning Zhiheng said.
“Tian Liqun could directly arrange for Su Yu to retrieve the seal for him. After Su Yu obtained the intelligence, he passed it on to Tian Liqun. This shows that there is a great connection between Su Yu and Tian Liqun. Tian Liqun should be Su Yu’s superior. Sometimes the enemy’s organizational structure changes depending on the situation, so it cannot be generalized!” Xiang Yan said with a smile.
After saying this, his expression turned serious, and he said solemnly, "The focus of our work now is on Tian Liqun. As long as we can follow this lead, we can find their leader and thus uncover the entire spy organization. This will be a gain no less significant than that of the Shadow Spy Group. All of you here will be rewarded, so we must not slack off!"
"Yes!" The crowd snapped to attention and answered in unison.
"Shao Wenguang!" Xiang Yan suddenly called out.
"Here!" Shao Wenguang hadn't expected Xiang Yan to suddenly mention his name.
"You've been monitoring Tian Liqun all this time. What's your assessment of him?" Xiang Yan asked. He needed to understand some basic information about Tian Liqun to make the right judgment.
“Reporting to the section chief, based on our observations these past few days, Tian Liqun is an extremely cautious person with strong self-discipline. He has no entertainment life and is very sensitive to his surroundings. Once, when I got a little close, I immediately attracted his attention! He must have received rigorous training and is a very professional agent!” Shao Wenguang said, sharing his impressions and judgments of Tian Liqun. Fortunately, Shao Wenguang was experienced, otherwise, they almost gave themselves away several times.
“This person’s identity is unusual, so we must pay special attention. When it comes to making the final move, we must do our best to capture him alive. He is very valuable, unlike ordinary spies!” Xiang Yan emphasized again.
He continued, "Shao Wenguang, we've all seen your performance. I've reviewed your file; you're a senior member of the team. Zhiheng spoke highly of you to the section chief this time, praising your experience, your tracking of Snow Wolf, and your discovery of Black Sparrow! You've made significant contributions to the Shadow Group case. I hope you'll continue your efforts. If you perform well in this case, I will personally recommend you for commendation; a promotion to colonel will be no problem!"
"Thank you for your guidance, Section Chief. I will do my best to live up to your expectations!" After hearing Xiang Yan's words, Shao Wenguang straightened up excitedly, stood at attention, and answered loudly.
In fact, when Xiang Yan spoke up for Shao Wenguang in front of Ning Zhiheng, he knew that Shao Wenguang was bound to be promoted. Moreover, now that the case has progressed to this stage, a major achievement has been accomplished, and Shao Wenguang's promotion to the rank of colonel should be no problem!
He was merely doing a favor by mentioning that Ning Zhiheng had spoken up for him in front of the director, which indirectly helped Ning Zhiheng do a favor for Shao Wenguang. In short, he was simultaneously currying favor with both Shao Wenguang and Ning Zhiheng. He truly was a seasoned veteran of the officialdom!
Shao Wenguang then turned his gaze to Ning Zhiheng. As a veteran in the military, he was certainly not lacking in experience and worldly wisdom, and naturally knew that the ones who would truly speak up for him were Wei Liangbi and Ning Zhiheng.
His gratitude to Xiang Yan was merely superficial, but his thanks to Ning Zhiheng were genuine and heartfelt! Just as he had said before, from now on he would follow the lead of these two fellow disciples and obey their orders!
Ning Zhiheng merely smiled at his grateful gaze. He, Wei Liangbi, and Shao Wenguang were all on the same path, and it was only natural for them to help each other out!
"Commander Ning, Tian Liqun is making a move!" At this moment, Liu Yong, who had been keeping a close watch, suddenly noticed something.
Upon hearing Liu Yong's words, Xiang Yan, Ning Zhiheng, and the others rushed to the window, where they saw Tian Liqun had changed into a long gown and left his house.
“His hands were empty, the jade artifacts were already at home, and the film was small, so he must have carried it with him. Now we need to see where he went,” Kang Shundong said, carefully observing Tian Liqun.
