Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of Zheng Hongbo, the former stationmaster of Shanghai Station. Zheng was also a close confidant of the director and was promoted to the position of chief of Shanghai Station, a major Class A station. After his failure, he was sent back to Wuhan by Ning Zhiheng. Although he had tried to bribe officials, he was still imprisoned by the director and his fate was still unknown.
The clerk nodded and said, "That makes sense. We should commend Deng Yuankai after his death. As for the removal of family members of those who have defected to the enemy, unless they are the ringleaders, we should decide on the case of ordinary people based on the circumstances, leaving room for future defection work."
Huang Xianzheng quickly echoed, "Your Excellency is wise. This is for the best. As the situation against the enemy becomes increasingly complex, we can be more flexible in some of our approaches!"
Ning Zhiheng never expected that his telegram would lead the higher-ups in the Military Intelligence Investigation Department to gradually revise this harsh family rule, changing it to only investigate the chief culprits of defection and the families of traitors whose defection was particularly egregious, thus saving the lives of many innocent people in the future.
At the same time, in the Shanghai Special Higher Police office building, Shinya Takeshita was leisurely drinking tea in his office, engrossed in reading a biographical novel.
Just then, a knock sounded at the door, and Morita Yuki pushed the door open and entered.
Upon seeing Morita Yuki, Takeshita Shin couldn't help but say with some annoyance, "Are you too idle? Don't you have any work to do? What are you doing here all day long? Let me make this clear, don't even think about messing with me again!"
Since Morita Yuki had squeezed a lot of benefits out of Takeshita Shinya last time, and even made Takeshita Shinya bleed money and treat his colleagues to a meal, he naturally knew that Takeshita Shinya's money came easily. So he boasted that he would make up for the previous losses and had been coming over to freeload frequently these days, which gave Takeshita Shinya, who was a miser to begin with, quite a headache.
Hearing Takeshita Shinya's words, Morita Yuki was completely unconcerned. He knew that although his friend was sharp-tongued, he had a very good heart. When he was bullied by Iwai Nosuke, only Takeshita stood up for him many times. The two of them had always gotten along well and had not developed any estrangement due to the difference in their status.
"Can't I just come over and chat with you?" Morita Yuki looked at the tea and novel on the table and couldn't help but feel genuinely envious. "I mean, you're living too leisurely. Didn't you say you were going to the Detective Department to collect your work report today? Why haven't you gone yet?"
Every few days, Takeshita Shinya would go to the Detective Department to collect written work reports from Wen Hao and Cui Guangqi. Then, based on the importance and urgency of the matters, he would select the more important content, summarize it, and report it to Imai Yuji. This work was very easy, so much so that most of the time, Takeshita Shinya spent his days leisurely with nothing to do, which Morita Yuki envied.
Shinya Takeshita glanced sideways at Yuki Morita and said with a smile, "Are you eyeing my little bit of profit again? Let me tell you, don't even think about it! Besides, there was just an assassination attempt at the Detective Department these past two days, and we're already overwhelmed with work. I'm too lazy to go looking for trouble."
Morita Yuki chuckled and said softly, "I've heard that these Chinese agents are extorting various chambers of commerce and arresting smugglers. They're making a lot of money. If you want to bring back more, don't be too polite to them."
Just as the two were chatting, the office phone rang. Takeshita Shinya reached out and picked up the phone. He was a little surprised by the person on the other end of the line, and he quickly put the phone down.
He spread his hands, shrugged slightly, and said helplessly to Morita Yuki, "It seems I can't invite you today. I have official business to attend to. Let's do it another time!"
Morita Yuki rolled his eyes and asked disdainfully, "What kind of official business could you possibly have? Even the gatekeepers in the Special Higher Police are busier than you!"
"No comment!"
After a few words to dismiss Morita Yuki, Takeshita Shinya's playful expression vanished. He paced back and forth in his office, carefully recalling the events in his mind.
Cui Guangqi from the Detective Department! Wen Hao is the one I've always dealt with in the Detective Department. I don't know Cui Guangqi well. What could he possibly want to report to me about?
