Looking at the half banknote in front of him, Li Zhiqun was immediately reminded of the scene half a month ago when he had just returned to Shanghai.
At that time, Li Zhiqun had just returned to Shanghai from Nanjing. After bringing the intelligence broker Feng Sinian back to the Yingzuo Agency, Yingzuo Yuki called him to his office and told him in detail about the cause of the Qingdao air crash. He asked him to immediately investigate all the information about Xu Yongchang and personally handed him the half of the legal tender banknote that was found on Xu Yongchang's body.
Kageyama Yuki specifically stated that the other half of the banknote must be in the hands of Xu Yongchang's contact, so that he could use this half of the banknote to find the mole hidden inside the intelligence headquarters as soon as possible.
Therefore, when Kagesa Yuuki was in Qingdao, he blocked the results of the search after the plane crash, as well as all news about this banknote. As a result, apart from Kagesa Yuuki and a very few other people who knew the truth, everyone in Shanghai believed that everyone on the plane had been lost at sea and had never been found.
To maintain secrecy, Li Zhiqun kept it a secret even from Wang Hanmin's wife and Wang Hanmin's brother-in-law, Ren Manshan. After returning to the intelligence headquarters, he carefully stored the half-note in his safe. To avoid alerting the mole, he didn't mention it to anyone, waiting for an opportunity to use it to provide evidence for finding the mole.
Unexpectedly, half a legal tender banknote was also found in Hu Yunhe's safe today. Li Zhiqun immediately realized what was going on! The string in his mind suddenly tightened. Ignoring the presence of Luo Xingchao and Wu Shicai, he turned around and went to the safe next to the bookshelf. He took out the key, inserted it, turned the combination, opened the safe, and took out a notebook from inside.
Luo Xingchao and Wu Shicai exchanged a bewildered glance at Li Zhiqun's sudden action.
Li Zhiqun took the notebook back to his desk, gently opened it, carefully took out half of a legal tender banknote, and then picked up the other half and gently put them together.
It fit perfectly without the slightest mistake!
"asshole!"
Li Zhiqun couldn't help but grit his teeth and curse again. This time, he had no more doubts. Although some details still needed to be verified, the appearance of this half banknote made him no longer hesitate and completely convinced of Hu Yunhe's identity.
Luo Xingchao couldn't help but step forward and ask in a low voice, "Director, what's the deal with this half of a banknote? How did you get the other half?"
Upon hearing Luo Xingchao's question, Li Zhiqun couldn't help but give a wry smile. He gently tossed the banknotes in his hand onto the table, shook his head, and sighed, "I had some doubts before, but I'm finally convinced now. Xingchao, I'll tell you the details later."
At this point, Li Zhiqun picked up the phone, turned the dial pad, and dialed the number. The call was quickly connected.
Li Zhiqun immediately ordered, "Arrest Luo Jiana immediately!"
Now that Hu Yunhe's identity is confirmed, he can no longer hesitate. No matter why Hu Yunhe did not notify Luo Jiana to evacuate, he has no choice but to arrest Luo Jiana immediately. Hopefully, it is not too late.
After giving the order, he put down the phone, gestured for Luo Xingchao and Wu Shicai to sit down, and sat down on the sofa himself. He said, "This matter is very complicated. You only know part of the story, or even nothing at all. Now that the truth is out, there is no need to keep it a secret anymore. I'm informing you of this so that you can use it as a reference when handling cases in the future. Don't cause unnecessary losses due to poor information flow."
Now, Li Zhiqun can only trust Luo Xingchao and Wu Shicai at the Special Agent Headquarters. One is a scholar and the other is a warrior, and they are his most capable assistants. There are many things that need to be discussed.
Luo Xingchao and Wu Shicai also perked up, sat up straight, and waited quietly for Li Zhiqun to begin his narration.
So Li Zhiqun recounted everything that happened in Qingdao in detail, from the moment they entered Qingdao, how he and Wang Hanmin racked their brains to find Fu Shengyuan and his wife, cracked the Qingdao station, then sabotaged the Military Intelligence Bureau's bombing operation, and the plane crash involving Wang Hanmin, Fu Shengyuan, and others. He told them everything in great detail.
Of course, he did not mention why he did not fly back to Shanghai with Wang Hanmin and others, but only mentioned that he had other important business and did not return on the same plane.
"At that time, General Yingzuo investigated the cause of the accident and seized the half banknote from Xu Yongchang. He asked me to find the holder of the other half banknote as soon as possible, and this person is the mole we have been looking for."
Luo Xingchao suddenly realized and said, "I understand now. General Yingzuo is very shrewd. He blocked the news because he didn't want others to know that we had the secret of half a banknote. This was to keep this mole in possession of the other half so that we could eventually find him. It's really brilliant!"
Wu Shicai, standing to the side, couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration, shaking his head and saying, "To be honest, intelligence work is really complicated. There are just too many twists and turns involved. Just listening to it makes me a little confused. I'm truly impressed!"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiqun couldn't help but glare at him fiercely. However, he felt helpless. Although Wu Shicai was shrewd, he was a latecomer to the field and had not received specialized training in intelligence. Therefore, he could not be relied upon in many matters.
So he ignored Wu Shicai and turned to Luo Xingchao, saying, "Hu Yunhe is a decisive man. Once he realized that he might be exposed at any time, he immediately rushed to the Dahua Dance Hall to meet with his accomplices, communicate, and arrange the evacuation. He didn't even go home. This left us with important evidence. Unfortunately, the man has already run away, so the evidence is useless now. However, I can use this banknote to report back to Colonel Qingqing."
