At this moment, Takeshita Shinya was completely different from his previous casual self. His face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Have we met once? Is it so strange that we've met once? Mr. Cui, just say it clearly now, don't beat around the bush?"
Cui Guangqi quickly nodded in agreement and continued, "When I met this Chairman Fujiwara last night, I felt that he looked very familiar, and I had a certain memory of him. I was sure that I had met him before, but I had never met the so-called chairman of the Fujiwara Company of Japan before. In other words, this Chairman Fujiwara had met me before in a different capacity. Do you understand what I mean?"
Shinya Takeshita nodded and said, "You suspect that Chairman Fujiwara's identity is questionable?"
“Yes!” Cui Guangqi nodded emphatically.
"I thought about it carefully for a long time last night. This Chairman Fujiwara is very young. A person's appearance is usually finalized within the last few years of coming of age. The time when I met him must have been recently. Then I finally remembered that a little over a year ago, a major event happened at the Shanghai Military Intelligence Station. At that time, my superior, Yu Li, was arrested by the Imperial Special Higher Police and plotted to arrest agents from other intelligence stations. The Nanjing headquarters sent a senior agent, Bian Ze, the former station chief of the Shanghai station, to handle this matter. At that time, I was the action team leader and attended to receive this important figure. Bian Ze brought a small number of people." There were only six people accompanying him. Since he had worked in Shanghai for a long time, I knew most of his staff; there were only two I hadn't seen before. I vaguely remembered one very young man who looked remarkably like Chairman Fujiwara, and their ages matched. The difference was that the younger man had a composed, military air, while this Chairman Fujiwara seemed somewhat frail and bookish. However, for an excellent agent, changing someone's demeanor wasn't difficult. I was 80% certain that these two were the same person!
Cui Guangqi, as expected of a veteran agent with many years of experience, is not only exceptionally skilled but also extremely intelligent. His ability to stand out in Shanghai, a top-tier station, and become the action team leader was certainly no fluke.
His observation skills were no less than Zheng Hongbo's. He also remembered Ning Zhiheng's unfamiliar face at the time. Although he did not find any flaws at the time, he still left an impression. However, his memory was amazing, and he actually recognized Ning Zhiheng. However, he was not entirely sure now.
However, if these two people are indeed the same person, then the problem is serious. The top Japanese aristocratic scion, who is treated as an honored guest by the president of the Fujiwara Trading Company and Colonel Katsuta, the commander of the Military Police Headquarters, is actually an agent of the Chinese Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau. This is a groundbreaking event. Cui Guangqi, who uncovered his identity, will have made a great contribution, enough to make the Japanese look at him with new eyes and gain enough trust.
Shinya Takeshita sighed inwardly. Life is unpredictable. Even the station chief probably never imagined that their brief encounter would be remembered by this traitor. Fortunately, Cui Guangqi reported this matter to him. If he had reported it directly to the intelligence team leader, Yuji Imai, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Takeshita Shinya hesitated for a moment, clearly processing the news, before finally saying slowly, "Mr. Cui, what you're saying is no small matter. I've told you before, the Fujiwara family has too much influence in Japan. Have you considered how serious the consequences would be if we rashly accused a member of the Fujiwara family of being a Chinese spy without solid, undeniable evidence? If we can't prove it, even insignificant people like you and me will be crushed to dust, with nowhere to hide!"
Cui Guangqi nodded heavily and replied, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Without irrefutable evidence, I naturally wouldn't dare to act rashly. That's why I reported this situation to you privately. After all, with my position, I can't investigate such a big shot. I have to use the power and resources of the Special Higher Police to investigate it thoroughly."
Choi Kwang-gi wasn't a reckless fool. He wanted to make a great contribution, but he also knew he had to ensure his own safety first. So he reported the news to Takeshita Shinya, hoping to use the Special Higher Police's resources to conduct a private investigation to ensure everything went smoothly.
