Chapter 163 Begin the Investigation

When Bai Yuan's interrogation came out, Shen Hanwen was not at the Shanghai station.

After capturing the two spies, the other two teams returned to Nanjing. He stayed in Shanghai and continued to monitor Yan Kui'an to see if he could find new spies by his side.

Now Shen Hanwen is full of energy, Yan Kui'an is covered with eyeliner around him, he doesn't stare at Yan Kui'an, only the surroundings, ready to stage a good show of praying mantis catching cicada and oriole behind.

The next morning, Loach hurried back to the office to report to work.

"Team leader, after a whole day of investigation yesterday, it was found that 13 of Zhang Bai's customers had bought newspapers, and there were also two regular customers of Zhang Bai among the companies and units that ordered newspapers, totaling 15 people."

"I arranged for people to check whether other customers who didn't see them had bought newspapers. It was confirmed yesterday that 47 of Zhang Bai's old customers did not have the habit of buying newspapers. These people can basically be ruled out."

"Okay, let's investigate these 15 people first, and don't rule out any of these 15 people for the time being."

Chu Lingyun nodded and said, there is a Chinese in Zhang Bai's downline, the spy investigation method is useless to him, everything about his past and present can be true.

In this case, it is indeed impossible to rule out all suspects.

"Yes, Captain."

Loach was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask any more questions, and he could investigate as he was told. Loach did a good job of being obedient.

For two consecutive days, the whole team of Niqiu was busy, and Chu Lingyun even dispatched ten people from Shen Hanwen's team to help him verify as soon as possible.

It wasn't until evening that Niqiu dragged his exhausted body to report to Chu Lingyun: "Team leader, I have verified that the actual number of people who have bought newspapers is 17, and two of them did not buy from the newsstand we were looking at."

"Where did these two buy the newspaper?" Chu Lingyun asked immediately.

Most people buy newspapers nearby, and they travel far away to buy newspapers, which is suspicious in itself.

"One was bought at the place where I went to work, and the other was bought when I went to the park. I had people search their homes secretly, and found that only one had more newspapers at home."

There are many newspapers, which means that they are often purchased, and the suspicion is greater, but the suspicion cannot be ruled out if there are few newspapers.

Maybe he sold it, or lost it.

In short, until Zhang Bai's four members are confirmed offline, everyone will not be ruled out.

"This is the detailed information of seventeen people. I have arranged for someone to investigate them, including the past, their hometown, and everything about them now."

NiQiu knew how to check for spies, and immediately started to investigate after getting the list, and now he has checked the current situation of several people.

"Good job, go back to rest early, leave me the list."

Chu Lingyun nodded, seventeen suspects, not too many, but not too many.

And those four people are most likely hiding among the 17 people. If calculated in this way, the proportion is actually very high. It is not difficult for them to find the spies.

The difficulty is how to find out all the spies.

Early in the morning of the third day, Chu Lingyun came to Niach's temporary office, which was still behind Deyuan Pond. The monitoring had stopped, but the investigation of Zhang Bai's customers would continue. This is the central location of Zhang Bai's customers. The office is located here.

"Leader."

As soon as Chu Lingyun entered, the people inside hurriedly got up.

The house was originally full, but now there are only four people staying behind. They have to guard the phone, record and sort out the information from outside investigations.

Including loach, they are not here now.

"Show me the information that has been investigated."

The information soon arrived in Chu Lingyun's hands. Regardless of how long it took, there was already a thick volume. All the information that was investigated was collected here first, and the loach was the last to organize and file it, and then handed it over to Chu Lingyun.

The first information is the customer of Zhangbai Theater.

His name is Zhao Pinsong, and he mainly sings Hongshan opera, and he is the pillar of Hongshan opera in their theater.

Hongshan Opera originated in the east of AH, which is very close to Nanjing.

Hongshan opera is very popular in Nanjing. Zhao Pinsong is 40 years old and has sung operas for more than 30 years. Just looking at his information, he is clean and innocent, not like a spy at all.

Zhao Pinsong's family was poor. He was sold to the theater when he was three years old, and he lived in the theater all the time. His life improved only when he learned the skills and became the protagonist.

It is difficult to pretend that the Japanese have such a background. If Jiro Kawamoto hadn't suddenly confessed that there were Chinese in Zhang Bai's downline, Zhao Pinsong could have directly ruled it out.

There was a Chinese among the spies, which really gave Chu Lingyun a headache.

The status of opera singers is not high in this era, but many high-ranking officials like to listen to operas, and sometimes invite opera troupes to their homes to sing, which gives opera singers the opportunity to scout out information.

As long as there is even a little suspicion, Chu Lingyun will not give up the investigation.

Zhao Pinsong's information is very simple, he has been in the theater all the time, his past can be easily found, and it is definitely him.

Not seeing any problems, Chu Lingyun continued to look through the next file.

These two documents belong to a teacher who works at Sanjiang Normal University.

In this era, the income of university teachers is very high, and the conditions are good. In this era of illiteracy, being a university teacher is very respected.

His name is Silihua, he is 32 years old, his hometown is in Beiping, and he is a city resident.

Slihua has been in Nanjing for six years, and in addition to teaching, he also took on some private teaching jobs, giving extra lessons to children from some privileged families.

There is a precedent for Japanese agents lurking as teachers. Du Juan was a middle school teacher in Wuhan.

The third is Du Fang, a local, 30 years old.

Generally, local people are the least suspicious, but he bought newspapers outside yesterday, and there are quite a few newspapers at home.

Du Fang works in a bank. Among the more than 100 pieces of information, there are nearly [-] pieces of information about Nanjing's financial system. Du Fang is also very suspicious.

After reading one by one, after reading all the information that had been found, Chu Lingyun immediately dug out Silihua's information again.

Among the current 17 people, Chu Lingyun is the most suspicious of him.

Jiro Kawamoto explained that he came to Nanjing five years ago, and there was only one intelligence agent who was later than him, and two of them arrived in Nanjing six years ago.

Gu Cheng was one of them. His identity had been confirmed. Among the seventeen people, only Silihua came to Nanjing six years ago.

"Team leader, you are here."

Niqiu got the news of Chu Lingyun's arrival from his subordinates, and ran back in a hurry.

"How far has Sliva's investigation been carried out?"

Niach immediately replied: "Silihua, I have already sent two people to monitor, because his hometown is Beiping, I sent people to investigate yesterday, but the people haven't arrived yet, I guess news will come back tomorrow at the latest."

To investigate suspects, especially those who are not local, Loach will send people to their local area for verification, which is the basic direction of investigation.
