Ding Dahai rushed to the train station and quickly went to the ticket office to buy a train ticket to Shanghai. However, the departure time was only an hour later. He was secretly anxious, hoping that time would pass quickly so that he could avoid this crisis and return safely to the headquarters of the Special Higher School.
Having spent so many years in hiding, he was now forced to flee in a panic. His heart was filled with resentment. He wondered if Team Leader Imai Yuji would hold a grudge against him after hearing that the entire capture team had been wiped out. With his future uncertain, Ding Dahai was filled with anxiety and unease.
At that moment, Ning Zhiheng was still listening to Boss Fang's description, carefully sketching out Ding Dahai's appearance.
The two deputy captains of the action team, Lu Xiu and Bi Zhengcheng, were listening to their subordinates' reports.
"You two good-for-nothings! All that tracking training has been for nothing. How could two people lose track of one person?" Bi Zhengcheng said sternly, quite annoyed with the two team members in front of him.
Since Ning Zhiheng took charge of the work, he has focused on strengthening the training of his subordinates' special agents. He also specially invited Shao Wenguang and instructors from the training department to teach his officers and team members various special agent skills, and the results were indeed very good.
“Alright, don’t blame them. Ordinary people can’t escape their pursuit at all. This person must be suspicious,” Lu Xiu said from the side. It seems that there are indeed Japanese spies who have escaped. “Report to the team leader immediately. Zhengcheng, you have seen this person’s face. Go back and ask the team leader to draw a portrait of him, and then start the search.”
The officers under Ning Zhiheng all knew that he had outstanding drawing skills, especially in drawing the true appearance of a target based on other people's descriptions. As long as the description was detailed enough, the portrait he drew was almost indistinguishable from the real person.
So they rushed back to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department to report the situation to Ning Zhiheng.
At this moment, in the office of Liu Datong, the chief of the Xicheng Police Station, Liu Datong had just returned from outside, threw off his police hat and coat, and plopped down in his seat.
He was extremely busy during this period. The Xicheng Police Bureau had a large jurisdiction, which made things more complicated. In addition, he had two checkpoints on major transportation routes to oversee. Liu Datong felt that being the chief of the Xicheng Police Bureau was indeed a difficult job!
When you don't have an official position, you want to be one; when you have one, you complain about all the work. How wonderful it would be if you could just collect money without doing any work!
Just as he was reflecting, the phone on his desk rang. He picked it up and immediately stood up straight.
"Team leader, what are your instructions?" Liu Datong asked, bowing.
"Datong, you have a police chief under you, the detective chief Du Qian left behind. What's his name?" Ning Zhiheng asked.
"You mean Ding Dahai? I've replaced all the old officers that Director Du left behind, but Ding Dahai is the only one I kept because he seems honest and reliable and knows the local situation well." Liu Datong quickly replied, secretly wondering why Team Leader Ning was asking him about this junior police officer. Could it be that this kid had caught the team leader's eye and was about to get lucky?
"Immediately send some skilled police officers to take him into custody. This man is a Japanese spy, so be careful during the operation. I'll also send people over here right away, and the action must be swift!" Ning Zhiheng ordered urgently.
Ning Zhiheng's words sent a chill down Liu Datong's spine. Ding Dahai was actually a Japanese spy. Although he had helped the team leader catch many Japanese spies, he never expected that there was one hiding right next to him.
"Yes, I'll arrange it immediately. We'll definitely capture him alive!"
Ning Zhiheng hung up the phone and then called the Military Intelligence Investigation Department again.
"Shucheng, take men to the West City Police Station immediately and arrest Detective Sergeant Ding Dahai. If Liu Datong has already been arrested, bring the criminal back. If not, cooperate with him to assist in the arrest. I'm heading there right now," Ning Zhiheng ordered.
"Yes, team leader! I'll be right there!" Wang Shucheng quickly accepted the order and led his men to set off immediately.
Liu Datong also summoned his two police chiefs, Chen Yanqing and Wen Xingsheng, to his office.
Liu Datong looked at his two trusted men and ordered, "The team leader has ordered the immediate arrest of Ding Dahai. This kid is actually a Japanese spy! I misjudged him. You two immediately gather your best-trained men and take action! He has weapons; we must not give him a chance to resist."
Chen Yanqing and Wen Xingsheng were shocked upon hearing this, but they immediately accepted the order and left.
But he quickly returned and reported to Liu Datong: "Director, there is no one in Ding Dahai's office. Someone said he has been gone for a long time."
"Go to Ding Dahai's house immediately. If he's there, arrest him right away. If he's not there, lie in ambush at his house and wait for him to come back before making your move. I'll be waiting at the police station. We'll split up and make sure he doesn't escape." Liu Datong made a decisive decision and immediately assigned the task.
"Yes!" Chen Yanqing and Wen Xingsheng accepted the order and quickly left.
Ding Dahai's house was some distance from the police station, but when Chen Yanqing and Wen Xingsheng arrived at Ding Dahai's house with their men, they found the gate locked.
Chen Yanqing thought for a moment and said, "Xingsheng, let's split into two groups. You take some men to set up a perimeter around the perimeter, and I'll take some men to climb over and ambush inside the house. When Ding Dahai returns and enters the courtyard, I'll make my move. If he manages to escape, you can surround him from the outside. This double protection will ensure he has no chance of escape."
Wen Xingsheng nodded and immediately split up to make arrangements, while Chen Yanqing led his men over the courtyard wall and into Ding Dahai's house.
But as soon as he entered the room, he could smell a burning odor. Chen Yanqing thought to himself that something was wrong and quickly searched around. He found that the room was in disarray and there was an iron basin in the bed with a lot of black residue inside.
