Looking at the traitor's face, Takeshita Shinya wished he could just shoot him and end the trouble right now.
This traitor not only killed more than sixty agents at the intelligence station, but now he has even turned his attention to the station chief. I must report this immediately and deal with him as quickly as possible, otherwise, if the news leaks out, it will be a catastrophic disaster for the entire Shanghai military intelligence station.
Takeshita Shinya asked in a low voice, "Mr. Cui, have you told anyone else about this?"
Cui Guangqi quickly replied, "No, I'm only telling you this. This matter is too big. The people around me are all former personnel of the Shanghai Military Intelligence Station. I can't guarantee that they are all without any problems."
Cui Guangqi now sees everyone as suspicious, even his own close confidants. After experiencing Deng Yuankai's assassination attempt and Pei Tai's death, he no longer trusts anyone. In the end, he could only report the matter to Takeshita Shinya. In his view, as Japan's largest intelligence agency, the Special Higher Police would never let go of such important intelligence and would definitely do everything in its power to find out the truth.
Hearing Cui Guangqi's words, Takeshita Shinya felt a sense of relief. It seemed things were still under control. He had to nip the danger in the bud before it even arrived. He nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good, Cui-san. You must keep this a secret. You cannot mention it to anyone except me. If Chairman Fujiwara finds out that someone is secretly investigating him, he can exert influence simply by using the Fujiwara family's name, and we will be in a very passive position."
Cui Guangqi nodded repeatedly. Of course, he wouldn't cause any more trouble. He agreed, "Mr. Takeshita, please rest assured. This is exactly what I meant when I reported to you privately. The safest way is to investigate this person secretly. We must not alert him!"
Takeshita Shinya first reassured Choi Kwang-ki with words, then said, "I will report to Section Chief Imai and Section Chief Sagawa immediately. Wait for my news!"
"yes!"
Takeshita Shinya suddenly remembered something and asked, "You contacted me using the office phone today?"
"Yes!" Cui Guangqi nodded and said.
"Is the phone safe?" Shinya Takeshita asked.
Shinya Takeshita had been in the Special Higher Police for quite some time. Despite his usual feigned ignorance, he was still very vigilant. He knew that most intelligence agencies would have a habit of tapping on their internal phone calls.
Cui Guangqi was taken aback. He understood what Takeshita Shinya meant and nodded, saying, "The phone is safe. In the Detective Department, my phone with Director Wen is on a dedicated line, and there are no wiretaps!"
He is a cautious and suspicious person, and he would never allow others to listen in on his phone calls; he is especially careful about this aspect.
"That's good. To be honest, the people in your detective department aren't reliable these days. I'm afraid you might let something slip on the phone, and if the information leaks out, it'll be a real problem!"
Cui Guangqi had not expected that Takeshita Shinya would be so cautious, which showed how much he feared Chairman Fujiwara.
The two talked for a long time before Takeshita Shinya got up to take his leave. Cui Guangqi saw him to the door, watched his back, breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and looked at the agents beside him, and then ordered them to return to the investigation department to await Takeshita Shinya's instructions.
After Takeshita Shinya left first, he didn't actually go far. Instead, he turned a street corner, turned back, and found a secluded corner to watch Choi Kwang-ki and the others leave.
After confirming that there were no tails following him, he immediately found a public phone and called Ning Zhiheng's villa, but no one answered. He then quickly called the office of the chairman of Fujiwara Company, and the call was quickly connected, and Ning Zhiheng's voice came through.
Half an hour later, in the same secluded tavern, Takeshita Shinya and Ning Zhiheng met.
"Why are you in such a hurry? What important thing is it?" Ning Zhiheng asked in a low voice.
Shinya Takeshita said softly, "The situation is urgent. Last night, when you attended the banquet, Choi Kwang-gi recognized you. Just now, he reported the situation to me, hoping to use the Special Higher Police's resources to investigate your true identity. I calmed him down with words first, and then immediately reported to you. What do you think we should do now?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Zhiheng was taken aback, but he remained calm and continued to press, "Tell me the details."
So Takeshita Shin recounted the events that had just occurred to Ning Zhiheng in detail.
Ning Zhiheng was somewhat surprised. He had only met Cui Guangqi briefly a little over a year ago, and at that time he had not revealed his identity, but was just an attendant under Bian Ze. Yet Cui Guangqi still recognized him, which showed that this person was indeed outstanding in terms of ability. It was just a pity that he had defected to the Japanese.
"Station Chief, what should we do now? Cui Guangqi can't stay any longer. He must be eliminated as soon as possible. Although I have strictly ordered him not to mention this matter to anyone, I cannot guarantee that there won't be any mistakes. If he had reported directly to Imai Yuji this time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!" Takeshita Shinya said with lingering fear.
Ning Zhiheng pondered for a moment. This unexpected event disrupted his initial plan. According to the original plan, he should have turned another informant to the enemy to complete the mission of eliminating traitors. The effect and benefits of doing so would be far better than doing it himself. However, he did not expect that Cui Guangqi would come to him on his own.
At this point, there was no time to worry about anything else; the matter had to be resolved immediately. Other considerations were secondary. As for Huang Xianzheng, he could only report and explain that Cui Guangqi had already threatened his safety, and he could no longer let it go unchecked. He had no choice but to take action, and he figured that Deputy Director Huang wouldn't be displeased by it.
