Siheyuan: Starting from the Old Society

"Honey, how about two more boxes of submachine guns?" Qiu Haitang continued to make a request, no, a plea.

"I say, are you done yet? The bureau is so short of guns right now?" Lin Sian said unhappily.

"Husband, you don't know, other departments have been very active recently, and we, the ground-grabbing party, need a lot of supplies. Now many of the supplies have been applied for by them, and there are really not many left for us!" Qiu Haitang explained.

"Oh? Really?" Lin Sian frowned slightly, instinctively feeling that something was wrong. How come other departments suddenly rose to prominence?

"Make a list for me later and I'll get some for you." Most of the agents in Qiu Haitang's team are from Lin Sian's guard team. They are his direct subordinates and cannot be discarded, so their firepower must be increased.

"Okay!" After Qiu Haitang agreed, she was already thinking about how to get more benefits from her husband.

Pistols, submachine guns, machine guns, shotguns, sniper rifles, grenades, bombs, and corresponding bullets... Oh, right, should I get a few small cannons? Qiu Haitang thought happily.

If Lin Sian knew what Qiu Haitang was thinking, she would definitely point at her head and say, "You're overthinking it!"

At this moment, the gunfire in the distance has stopped, indicating that the battle is over.

Sure enough, after a while, Haozi came and reported that the hideout had been captured.

There were more than ten Japanese spies hiding in this hideout. Most of them were almost wiped out, and only four were captured, and one was seriously injured.

On their side, one comrade was killed and three were injured, but they were all new agents. The comrades who were from the guard team were all safe and sound due to their rich experience.

The losses here were not that great, but the two teams led by Zhou Yang and Guan Sheng suffered relatively heavy casualties.

That’s right, Zhou Qiang’s team raided three Japanese spy hideouts last night, and the other two were attacked by Zhou and Guan.

It is impossible for all the credit to be taken by Qiu Haitang's team, and the superiors do not want to see such a situation. After all, it is not conducive to the balance of the team.

"Did you find anything?" Lin Sian asked Zhou Qiang outside the yard.

Zhou glanced at Qiu Haitang, who looked expressionless, and then replied, "We found the code book. There was some information in it, but it was burned when they resisted."

"The rest are some scattered oceans and guns and the like."

It seems that there is not much money to be made from this den! Lin Sian felt a pity in his heart. He was not interested in those scattered dollars and guns.

"How can we have only the code book but no radio? Put another radio in for them." He gave the order, and then ordered the team to withdraw.

When they got back to the car, Qiu Haitang asked seriously, "Why are we doing this?"

"This is to frame them and prove their identity as Japanese spies!" Lin Sian answered as a matter of course.

"Is it necessary to go to such lengths? Isn't it enough to have the code book?" Qiu Haitang said dissatisfiedly.

"Hmph, woman, you are really short-sighted. This is an industry under the Mitsui & Co., and we must confirm their identity as Japanese spies, so it is necessary to add a radio station. In this way, no matter how they quibble, it will be useless." Lin Sian scolded again.

"Which radio station did you come from?" Qiu Haitang asked.

"Have you forgotten what I do? I can have as many radio stations as I want." Lin Sian replied with a proud smile.

"I'm warning you, the radio is a prohibited item, you have to hide it carefully. If someone finds it, I want to know what you will do. Don't let anyone get involved." Qiu Haitang immediately reminded.

"You don't have to worry about these. Just stay in the office and take care of your baby. Don't worry, you will get all the credit." Lin Sian replied.

It was not until early the next morning that the Fuxing Society received the news.

"It's bad! Three groups of people were caught by the secret agents last night. The people were either beaten to death or captured." A member of the Fuxing Society hurriedly reported to Mitsui Michelle.

Misaki Miri's face suddenly turned very ugly, "How could this happen?" She was secretly shocked. The loss of these three groups of operatives would bring great trouble to the progress of her Renaissance Society's work.

"Notify other team members immediately, evacuate the base, hide in various places, and wait for orders!" Mitsui Michelle quickly issued the safest order.

Since those three groups were found and taken down by the spies, have the other groups also been targeted? They must evacuate quickly!

After handling these urgent matters, Miri Mitsui asked again in confusion: "By the way, we also have a secret line in the Second Division, why didn't they report it in advance?"

The subordinate replied: "We don't know that yet."

"Waste!" Misaki Miri angrily scolded. At this time, another member of the Fuxing Society came in to report: "The secret line hidden in the Second Department has sent news..."

Misaki Miri motioned for her to continue reporting.

"They said that the third team was responsible for these dens, and they were not informed until the operation last night, so there was no time to notify them to evacuate."

"It's actually the third team." Mitsui Miri clenched her fists when she heard that.

The third team is somewhat special, as most of the people in it come from the same place, and the team is closely connected, making it difficult for outsiders to infiltrate. Previously, we tried to insert people in to obtain intelligence, but the results were not good and it was easy to be exposed, so we chose to arrange a secret line in the first team, which has more diverse members.

"The fact that they were able to find our base means that they may have already set their sights on activities related to Mitsui & Co. From now on, stop using Mitsui & Co. as an intelligence transit station." Mitsui Michelle made a prompt decision and decided to abandon Mitsui & Co.

"Understood!" the subordinate responded.

"Is there any relevant information about the captain of the third team?" Mitsui Miri asked further.

"At present, we only know that her name is Qiu Haitang. She just gave birth to a child some time ago. Now she spends most of her time in the office, and the specific work is left to her subordinates to carry out." The subordinate replied.

Since the spies are professionally trained, it is extremely difficult to track them and it is easy to alert the enemy, so the intelligence collection on Qiu Haitang is quite limited and can only be carried out when she stays in the office.

"It seems that the captain of the third team is only a nominal person in charge, and the real decision-maker may be someone else." Miri Mitsui analyzed.

This kind of thinking is inevitable. After all, in the eyes of most people, a woman who has been sitting in an office for a long time and even been pregnant can hardly have real power. She may just be sitting in this position because of connections.

"Let the secret agent conduct a thorough investigation to find out who is giving orders behind the scenes for the Third Team." Mitsui Miri ordered.

"Understood!" the subordinate responded immediately.

"Is there any new news from Standard Chartered Company?" Mitsui Miri was referring to the surveillance of Lin Sian.

The person sent to follow was discovered and met with misfortune, so now they can only monitor Lin Sian through the secret agent planted in the Standard Chartered Bank.

"The target hasn't behaved in any unusual way recently, and is the same as usual. However, his performance seems to have declined." The subordinate reported the situation in detail.

"Performance is declining?" Misaki Miri frowned slightly, "Is it because you were distracted by something?"
