Cicada Moving

Chapter 324 Comparison and collision

Outside a compound, Gui Youguang hid in an alley with the agents of the action team, secretly watching the movements in the compound. When he saw a car driving out, his eyes lit up.

It was Liu Gui's car. This guy was Xu Enzeng's confidant. He went out as soon as he came back, maybe to the storage point of the files. He called a spy who was good at tracking, and the two communicated in a low voice.

 “You are responsible for following Liu Gui, you know what to do.”

“Know, follow and monitor secretly, find a foothold.”

 “Go.”

Gui Youguang patted his subordinates on the shoulders, and then focused on the cars of other personnel going out, especially those agents who drove alone, most likely to access files.

He never expected that Xu Enzeng would use the radio to communicate with the people at the file storage point. After all, the stability of the radio was not high, and the tube was easily damaged. Once it broke, it would cost a lot to buy it.

Moreover, most people subconsciously think that radio is a tool for long-distance communication. Xu Enzeng can be regarded as taking advantage of blind spots in his thinking. As expected, he came back from studying abroad and has some skills when it comes to seriousness.

However, just because Gui Youguang can’t think of it, doesn’t mean that others can’t think of it.

When Zuo Zhong judged that there was a traitor and noticed that Xu Enzeng was so cautious, he immediately thought of the radio station. What could be safer than not having to meet in person and only using radio waves to communicate.

 Just like when he contacted the underground party.

So when Gui Youguang was doing useless work, Zuo Zhong walked into the telecommunications department. He was surrounded by the smiling telecommunications section chief. Now facing Zuo Zhong, he no longer had the unruly attitude he had when he was selling radio stations.

“Oh, we are really a distinguished guest today. How come Section Chief Zuo has time to come here? You are all dead. Someone come and make Chief Zuo a cup of the good tea I brought back from Hangzhou. Hurry and go.”

Zuo Zhong looked at this person's villainous expression without caring, and said cheerfully: "I'm investigating a case, let's see if you have any new discoveries here, and what's going on at Sanpailou in the past two days."

The telecommunications chief originally worked for machinery. He was not too understanding of the electrical investigation. When he heard the question from the left, he quickly called the technicians who were responsible for electrical investigation to report the specific situation to the left.

When the technician saw the legendary smiling tiger for the first time, his face turned pale with fright, and he stammered: "Report to Section Chief Zuo that there are no unknown radio signals near the Third Archway. We have tried our best."

“It’s really dog ​​meat that cannot be put on the table, it’s a useless thing.”

The telecommunications section chief was furious: "Have you done a good job in detecting it? Section Chief Zuo is the detection expert in our department. He said that if there is a radio station on the third archway, there must be a radio station. Please detect it carefully for me."

These words are a bit unreasonable. Without unknown radio activity, no matter how carefully they detect, there is no way they can find it. The technicians lower their heads in humiliation and accept the baptism of saliva.

"Don't blame him, this case is a bit special." Zuo Zhong smiled and persuaded the telecommunications section chief, and then asked the technician: "Have you recorded all the activity records of Jinling City Radio?"

"Yes."

The technician puffed up his chest: “Whether it is a registered government radio station or a commercial radio station set up privately, we have recorded it, but we only have the start-up time and approximate location.

This also depends on the new electronic detection equipment borrowed by Section Chief Zuo, otherwise we can only determine the time and general direction of the startup. Everyone says that you and our Section Chief are the most knowledgeable officers. "

  If you don’t say that an honest man is flattering, he is amazing. His words made people feel comfortable. Both Zuo Zhong and the telecommunications section chief smiled, and the telecommunications section chief almost burst into laughter.

"The Telecommunications Section has done a good job." Zuo Zhong praised him against his will, and then said unceremoniously: "The Intelligence Section has discovered some new clues. Show me the electrical investigation records within three months."

“This all depends on Virgo’s leadership.” The telecommunications section chief gave Lao Dai a slap in the face, and then waved to the technicians: “You immediately bring a few people to send the electrical investigation records to Section Chief Zuo’s office.”

Zuo Zhong didn't stop him. This arrangement couldn't be better. It was really inconvenient for him to be here. He made perfunctory greetings with the chief of the telecommunications section. When he saw a few agents coming back with records, he left immediately.

He smiled and said: "Thank you, Corey still has some work to deal with, so I won't bother you much today. Come and sit at my place when you have time. Although there is no good tea from Hangzhou, there is a can of good coffee beans."

"No problem. If you have anything to do in the future, just call me and say hello. You don't have to go to such a troublesome place. Don't worry, I will notify you immediately if there is an unfamiliar radio station near Sanpailou."

The telecommunications section chief bent slightly, standing a step behind Zuo Zhong on the right, and enthusiastically escorted Zuo Zhong out of the door, treating him completely as his superior, completely ignoring that both of them were department-level cadres.

Zuo Zhong turned sideways and said with a smile: "Don't be like this. Although Virgo asked me to temporarily take charge of the work of the office, in the final analysis, our positions are the same. You are too polite."

 “Different, different.”

The head of the telecommunications section smiled flatteringly: "You are now a major, which is unique in the department. Naturally, you are a commander. We all say that you will be the second person in our department to be promoted to general in the future."

 Bah, you are the general.

Zuo Zhong felt that the current spies spoke in a yin and yang manner. Wasn't this a curse for me to enroll in Gongdelin early? But it was hard to say anything in front of a smiling face, so he immediately laughed and left. After taking people back to the Intelligence Section, Zuo Zhong asked the agents from the Telecommunications Section to put down their things. He also said hello to He Yijun and asked her not to let anyone in to disturb him, and then he dove into the office.

 It’s not to keep it secret.

But the amount of data he has to process is very large. There are millions of people in and around Jinling City, and there are many commercial institutions such as banks, trading companies, newspapers and magazines. These places all have radio needs.

This has resulted in a large number of radio signals in Jinling. If you don't take the time to read them all, an intelligence section chief who cares so much about the radio station can easily arouse the suspicion of others, such as Lao Dai.

Zuo Zhong first checked the recent records, focusing on a record of telegrams sent by Liu Gui after he returned to the secret service headquarters. He was afraid that the telecommunications department had not yet recorded today's detection.

 Fortunately, the telecommunications technician was very prudent in his work. He quickly discovered a message sent today. There were 25 messages in just two hours, which shows how busy the business has been recently.

 “Clear code, not this.”

 “This is not the frequency of camp.”

 “No, it’s still the frequency of camp,”

Zuo Zhong quickly eliminated some records that were obviously not secret communications, but in the end there were still 7 messages left. At the same time, these 7 messages were sent throughout the two hours.

There are too many clues.

He originally wanted to find a transmitting time, and then find a radio station that had records of sending and receiving telegrams at the same time. By comparing them, he would be able to find out. Now it seems that it is not that easy, but it is not impossible.

 If the simple method doesn't work, then use the stupid method. That's why he asked for three months of electrical reconnaissance records. In addition to deceiving others, the more data there are, the more accurate the intelligence can be mined.

Zuo Zhong calmly wrote down the sending times of these seven messages, and also marked the radio stations that had records of sending and receiving telegrams during the same period. They were all done. The number of radio stations made his hair tingle.

There were 92 radio stations associated with these 7 transmission times alone. For the first time, he felt that the wireless equipment should be taken care of. If the spy radio station was also hidden in it, he would have to find it.

Zuo Zhong classified the 92 radio stations and excluded all known government radio stations. It was impossible for Xu Enzeng to place people in the secret service headquarters, and similarly he would not place people in other agencies.

If he wanted to protect Wang Lizhong, he must first ensure that the least number of people knew about it. If he was placed in a Guo Party agency, it would not take half a day for the news to spread all over Jinling.

 Compared with those party and state officials, Song Minghao is very tight-lipped.

At the same time, the government radio stations that can be marked by the Telecommunications Section are all large government offices. The secret service headquarters does not have such a big face to ask the other party to cooperate with intelligence operations. These two points determine that these radio stations have no investigative value.

At this point, there are still 51 suspicious radio stations left in Zuo Zhong's hands. Judging from the detection records, they are distributed throughout the city. They seem to have no intelligence value unless there are other reference objects.

“Lao Zhang, Lao Xie, Sister Gu, it’s up to you.”

 Zuo Zhong muttered something in his mind and began to compare the records of these 51 radio stations with the time of the Jishi Pharmacy explosion. As long as the radio stations appeared before the explosion, all radio stations were excluded.

Only after Lao Zhang and others were arrested or sacrificed, did Xu Enzeng have time to arrange for the traitor Wang Lizhong to identify the Jinling underground party. He set the reference time after the explosion to be more accurate.

The comparison process was not easy. It took several months and there were countless records. If you were not careful, you would have to start from the beginning. Zuo Zhong glanced at the window sill, turned on the desk lamp, lowered his head and concentrated on screening.

 One, two, three. . . .

From evening to late night, and from late night to early morning, the office was filled with the smell of cigarette smoke, and the cigarette butts in the ashtray piled up into a hill. Only a thin sheet of the originally thick detection record was left.

Zuo Zhong took out the last cigarette, threw the cigarette box into the trash can, lit it, stretched out, and looked at the table. After finishing this last cigarette, the traitor's tail should be exposed.

Thinking of this, his eyes were full of coldness. It was Wang Lizhong who had caused so much damage to the underground party. After finding this person, he wanted to see if the other party's heart was dark.

 Otherwise, how could Wang Lizhong do such a thing, betray his comrades, and persecute those brothers who had fought alongside him? It would be a sin for such people to live one more day in the world.

Finally, before the agent started working, Zuo Zhong reduced the 51 radio stations to 3. He looked at the records of the three radio stations and smiled, Wang Lizhong, we are about to meet, just wait.

He read out three locations silently: "Central Chinese Martial Arts Hall, Jiming Temple, and Central Party Headquarters."
