The bureau chief stared at the long telegram, speechless for a long time!
He never imagined that he had been so proud of the success of this operation, having quietly completed a major operation that shocked the world, thinking that he was completely unaware of it, even the Shanghai Intelligence Section, which was known for its intelligence work.
But a moment later, he was utterly devastated by this telegram!
His masterpiece, which he considered a great success, had been under close surveillance by the Shanghai intelligence department from the very beginning of the operation.
From Wan Mulin to Chen Ting, and then Gao and Tao, they knew not only the time and route of their escape, but also their last whereabouts. They even knew the address of Gao and Tao's current hiding place in Hong Kong. It is conceivable how far the intelligence work of the Shanghai Intelligence Section has gone!
Finally, they even investigated the fact that No. 76 had turned its attention to the Green Gang in the foreign concessions and issued a warning to the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters.
Such unimaginable efficiency was simply astonishing, even startling the intelligence expert, Director Zhang!
The director couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. Fortunately, Ning Zhiheng knew the gravity of the situation and could distinguish right from wrong. He simply observed the situation and did not try to interfere in this operation or cause any further trouble. Otherwise, things would not have gone so smoothly!
This also shows that the intelligence work of the Shanghai Intelligence Section has reached an unparalleled level. It seems that everything that happens in Shanghai is no secret in the eyes of the Shanghai Intelligence Section!
Moreover, the Director could clearly sense Ning Zhiheng's dissatisfaction from this telegram. For such a tremendous achievement, the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters would rather let the Green Gang do it than let the Shanghai Intelligence Section benefit from it. The reason for this is probably clear to everyone!
The Director's feelings were correct. In fact, when Ning Zhiheng learned the whole story, he was extremely dissatisfied. In this time of crisis, he was struggling to maintain the situation in Shanghai, but the Director was still making his own schemes.
If the Director had given such a low-difficulty, high-reward opportunity to make a name for himself to the Shanghai Station, Ning Zhiheng could understand it. After all, there are differences in favoritism, and it's understandable to give special treatment to one's own people. However, the fact that the Director bypassed the Shanghai Intelligence Section after the Shanghai Station's defeat and gave such a great achievement to the Green Gang, who had no connection with the area, really displeased Ning Zhiheng.
What's more, the ending wasn't cleaned up properly, leading to endless troubles, and I'm afraid I'll have to clean up the mess myself.
So he took the opportunity of this report to give a detailed account of the whole matter, so as to clearly tell the director that he was considering the overall situation and that's why he let this great achievement slip through his fingers.
The bureau chief, holding the telegram, felt extremely embarrassed. He looked up at Wei Liangbi, opened his mouth, and after a long while, finally spoke: "Liangbi, I already know about the matter. The information provided by the intelligence section is very important, and I will handle it as soon as possible."
Wei Liangbi quickly stood at attention and replied, "Yes, then I won't disturb your rest any longer. This humble servant will take his leave!"
After speaking, he saluted the bureau chief, nodded to Bian Ze, and then turned to leave.
The bureau chief nodded, signaling Secretary Liu to see Wei Liangbi out. Once the man was gone and the door closed, he relaxed, leaning back in his chair. He couldn't help but sigh deeply, shaking his head and saying, "In the end, we couldn't hide it from them. Truly, the younger generation is formidable!"
Bian Ze had noticed that the Director's expression was a bit off, which must be related to the contents of the telegram. He quickly asked, "Director, what happened?"
The bureau chief waved his hand and said, "Nothing happened, but it was really embarrassing. We thought we were being discreet, but they were just watching us perform. They're quite resentful this time!"
Seeing that Bian Ze was confused, the director pushed the telegram forward, gesturing for Bian Ze to look at it.
Bian Ze quickly stepped forward and took the telegram. After a careful reading, he was greatly surprised. He read through all the contents carefully, and after a long while, he looked up at the director and couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of the Shanghai Intelligence Section, their intelligence capabilities are amazing! Gao and Tao just arrived in Hong Kong today, and they've already found out their whereabouts. The entire operation is described in detail. They knew about this operation all along, but they didn't interfere and just watched it unfold!"
The bureau chief said helplessly, "The telegram says that the Green Gang did something dirty this time and left behind trouble. The 76th is already aware of it. You should quickly send a telegram to Hong Kong and have Yue Sheng inform Wan Mulin to leave Shanghai as soon as possible, otherwise I'm afraid the 76th will make a move!"
