"Captain, Zhou Laosan and the others are here to relieve us. We should switch positions," Qiu Zishi reminded him.
The car opposite them was occupied by two other team members who came to relieve them. According to the requirements of the Military Intelligence Service's tracking and surveillance training, the same person cannot stay in the same location for more than two hours.
Miao Yongyi's car has been parked at this intersection for a long time and needs to be moved.
Miao Yongyi started the vehicle and drove onto another street nearby before stopping.
Just then, another team member, Hao Yi, came out of an office building.
Hao Yi, dressed in an old suit and carrying a briefcase, looked listless. He turned around and looked at the office building, picked up the newspaper in his hand and looked at it helplessly, then headed towards another trading company.
He disguised himself as an employee looking for a job and walked around the nearby companies and trading houses, hoping to find traces of Miyahara Ryohei, but so far he has not found anything.
Seeing his expression, Miao Yongyi and Qiu Zishi knew there was no progress, and Miao Yongyi couldn't help but sigh.
Qiu Zishi comforted him, saying, "Captain, don't worry. This kind of tracking operation can't be rushed. You have to be patient, and sometimes you even have to rely on luck. There's no use in being anxious!"
Miao Yongyi turned to ask, "Old Chou, you've been in the Military Intelligence Bureau for so long, do you often do this kind of work?"
Qiu Zishi shook his head and said with a smile, "I've been with the Military Intelligence Bureau for four years now. I rarely did this kind of thing before. We were in the Action Section, which just followed orders. When the Intelligence Section had news, we would go out and make arrests. We couldn't do these delicate tasks. But two years ago, after the station chief joined the Military Intelligence Bureau, the situation changed completely. Our Action Section became the main force of the Military Intelligence Bureau. The personnel in the Action Section also had to supervise intelligence work and had to participate in special agent training. Later, the station chief even hired a lot of instructors to give our Action Team special training, so we learned a lot. To put it bluntly, now those people in the Intelligence Section are even worse than us in this regard. Otherwise, would our Action Section be the number one department in the Military Intelligence Bureau now?"
His pride was palpable in his words, and he seemed quite pleased with himself.
Hearing his words, Miao Yongyi couldn't help but sigh and said, "I'm a latecomer to intelligence work. What I learned in military academy and the field army is no longer useful. It's really difficult for me to do intelligence work. I'm afraid that if I make a mistake, it will implicate everyone. I should really learn properly if I have the chance!"
Miao Yongyi was also an elite soldier. He had received two years of formal training at the Whampoa Military Academy and had excellent tactical skills. He had also served as a junior officer in a field army and had combat experience. However, this experience was not useful for intelligence work, and he found it quite difficult to get started. He had long wanted to systematically learn special agent skills.
Qiu Zishi laughed and said, "Isn't that simple? Just write an application and report to the training department to request to accompany the training for a period of time. Does anyone dare to stop you? However, you are a major, and those instructors are not as high-ranking as you. I'm afraid you won't be able to bring yourself to do it, and they won't dare to interfere with you!"
Within the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, promotions are extremely difficult. Being promoted to major is already considered a mid-level officer, while most instructors in the training section are captains, and training for major-level officers is still rare.
Miao Yongyi hesitated for a moment. His mission was to infiltrate the Military Intelligence Investigation Department and provide the organization with important intelligence. Now, thanks to Ning Zhiheng's trust, he had successfully entered the Shanghai Military Intelligence Station. However, he had been staying in the Tan Mansion for a year and had no opportunity to access any intelligence or send any valuable information to the organization.
Miao Yongyi believed that this was related to his poor work ability. In the metropolis of Shanghai, there were Japanese agents and traitors everywhere, and the environment for struggle was extremely harsh. If there was any mistake, one's life would be in danger.
I am indeed lacking in this area, and the consequences of making a mistake are unpredictable. Unfortunately, this is something that cannot be practiced in real life, because some mistakes, once made, are the end.
Miao Yongyi was well aware of the job Ning Zhiheng assigned him. He knew perfectly well that it was because he lacked intelligence work experience, and Ning Zhiheng had arranged it specifically to protect him and prevent him from being in danger during operations.
But this was not what he wanted. He wanted to better integrate into the Military Intelligence Investigation Service, the Kuomintang's largest intelligence agency, and play a greater role.
Of course, to achieve this, one must better conceal and disguise oneself and become an excellent agent; otherwise, one will always be excluded from the periphery and will expose one's identity due to lack of experience. Therefore, he had long wanted to undergo systematic learning, and it seemed that participating in the military intelligence agency's agent training was a good way.
