He didn't notice that just now, when he squeezed under the notice, several pairs of eyes hidden in the crowd focused on him.
The reason is simple: among the four spy photos that Ning Zhiheng gave to Shao Wenguang, one of them was of Nagano Ichiro. The intelligence officers had long memorized the physical appearance of the four men and kept a close watch under the notice. Even though Nagano Ichiro changed his clothes and hairstyle, he was still recognized by these intelligence agents.
After leaving the execution ground, Nagano Ichiro walked quickly, bypassing two blocks on foot, and arrived at a newly opened restaurant. He hurried inside.
At this moment, the shopkeeper who was doing the accounting behind the counter looked up at Nagano Ichiro and nodded slightly. This shopkeeper was none other than Miyahara Shun.
The two received orders to go into hiding in Chongqing. Miyahara Shun spent some money to take over a restaurant nearby and transformed himself into the restaurant owner.
Nagano Ichiro and Miyahara Shun's eyes met, and without lingering, they went straight through the hall into the back room.
It was midday, and there were still a few customers in the restaurant. Miyahara Shun put down his abacus, gave the waiter a few instructions, and then followed him into a room in the back hall, carefully closing the door behind him.
Turning to look at Ichiro Nagano, who was writing a list of criminals to be executed on a piece of paper.
Miyahara Shun asked in a low voice, "So? Who were executed today?"
Nagano Ichiro sighed and said, "They should be members of the Rose Group, fifteen in total. I've written down the list from memory. You'll report it to headquarters tonight. Sigh! Actually, I think it's completely unnecessary. The intelligence network has been completely wiped out, so what's the use of recording this?"
Miyahara Shun frowned and said, "You've been too complacent. Our tightly organized intelligence network has been completely destroyed in just one month, like a landslide. Headquarters believes that no matter how capable Ning Zhiheng is, he couldn't have done this. Section Chief Takasaki has always suspected that there is a traitor within the intelligence network. Now that we've sent back the execution list, a careful comparison will reveal who escaped during the Chinese crackdown. This is the most direct evidence."
Nagano Ichiro disagreed, but he still had to obey orders, since Miyahara Shun was his superior.
He quickly finished writing down the list from memory, handed it to Miyahara Shun, and then said, "This is already the fourth batch of people to be executed, and it's still Ning Zhiheng in charge. With this person around, he poses a huge threat to us. We have to come up with a solution!"
Miyahara Shun nodded and said, "Since the observation team was arrested, our bombing of Chongqing has stopped. The military will definitely not let this situation continue. There will be new operations soon. We just need to wait for instructions from headquarters. Don't be impatient. By the way, I'll open a back door at the back of the restaurant in a couple of days. You can come in through the back door from now on. It's too conspicuous to walk in through the front."
Ichiro Nagano immediately nodded. After exchanging a few words, Ichiro Nagano got up and left. Shun Miyahara returned to the front hall and continued to greet the guests. Everything was as usual.
Two hours later, in the office of the director of the Second Action Division, Ning Zhiheng was instructing Jian Zhengping, the head of the General Affairs Section.
"The assets in the Qian Zhong case need to be cleared out as soon as possible. All the money he had in the bank should be converted into bank drafts, and all the antiques and cultural relics should be stored separately. You need to act quickly. This case needs to be closed as soon as possible, the sooner the better!"
Qian Zhong's matter cannot be delayed any longer; things may change over time, so we must act swiftly and decisively.
Jian Zhengping readily agreed. He was already very familiar with the director's style; he was decisive and efficient, never allowing even a moment's delay.
Ning Zhiheng waved for Jian Zhengping to leave, and at that moment Shao Wenguang strode in.
He took a few steps to Ning Zhiheng and reported in a low voice, "Chief, we found two people today!"
Ning Zhiheng's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he quickly asked, "Are you sure it's them?"
Shao Wenguang nodded emphatically and said, "I can confirm it! If two people look alike, it can be explained as a coincidence, but if you suddenly find two people who look exactly like the photos, then there's absolutely no mistake!"
