Lost and Spy

Chapter 1163 House Lease
A car stopped at the gate of the Shanghai Gendarmerie Headquarters.

A driver in a suit, hat and white gloves got out of the car immediately and opened the passenger's door.

Then, a middle-aged man in a gray robe got out of the car, walked up to the sentinel, and said in not particularly fluent Japanese:
"Ms. Videlia Gracie greets Mr. Renpei Yano, Chief of Police Section."

"Hold on."

The man waited outside for a while, and the sentinel came out:

"Your Excellency, the section chief, can see you, but you need to check."

"OK, just a second."

The man came to the car, the rear window was rolled down, he said a few words in a low voice, and then knocked on the door.

Lady Gracie stepped out of the car in a British hunting suit.

……

Yano Renping has been in a good mood recently.

Some time ago, he extorted a large sum of money from Li Shiqun, and then his brother made military exploits at the front and was promoted to Major.

Out of the wind proud horseshoe disease.

Is this what the Chinese say?
Ms Wadelia Gracie?
He had never heard of such a number one figure.

Just this Ms. Gracie?
Really ugly.

However, out of politeness, Yano Renping still said politely: "Ms. Gracie, I am Yano Renping, the Chief of the Police Department of the Gendarmerie. Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Mr. Yano speaks fluent English."

As soon as Gracie finished speaking, the housekeeper next to her immediately took out a white handkerchief, wiped the chair carefully, and then Gracie sat down:
"I know Section Chief Yano is very busy, so I don't want to waste your time. Let's be straightforward, I want to rent a house next to you from you."

"Oh, next door?"

"Yes, 520 Zhengmin Road."

520 Zhengmin Road?
Yano Renping was taken aback.

There, it was originally a small warehouse, which was later requisitioned by the gendarmerie and remodeled.

"Ms. Gracie." Yano Renping quickly said: "You can rent another place, which is the military site of the Imperial Japanese Gendarmerie."

"It's just used as a warehouse and for interrogating prisoners." Gracie's information seems to be very accurate: "Such a place can be found at any time, Section Chief Yano, please don't rush to refuse, please take a look at my sincerity."

As soon as she finished speaking, the housekeeper beside her immediately took out a check and put it in front of Yano Renping.

It was a check for three thousand dollars.

Gracie said lightly:
"It's three months' rent."

Yano Renping was stunned again.

A thousand dollars a month?
Rent there?
"Ms. Gracie, what are you going to lease there for?"

"A manual printing house."

Yano Renping pondered for a while: "Ms. Gracie, I am not the only one who has the final say on this matter. I need some time to think about it."

"Okay, Mr. Yano."

Gracie stood up: "I'm staying at the Licha Hotel, you can come to me anytime, goodbye."

"Goodbye. Chuanneng-kun, send Ms. Gracie off for me."

Yano Renping sat there, silent.

After a while, Chuan Nengde walked in: "Section Chief Yano, that's too weird."

"Yeah, it's too weird." Yano Renping moved his mouth: "An American woman suddenly wants to rent a house here, why?"

"Could there be any conspiracy?" Chuan Neng said with a frown, "A member of the military commander? Rent the house next door to us, what action are you going to plan?"

"Maybe, but my gut tells me she's not."

Yano Renping also frowned: "Chuanneng-kun, are you using it to monitor us? They won't be so stupid. Although it is not far from us, the viewing angle is very poor. Whether it is used as a contact point or a monitoring station, it is Extremely inappropriate, that's why we converted it into a warehouse and interrogation room. But why? She must have a purpose."

"This woman is very weird." Tokuyuki Chuanneng said quickly: "Why must a printing factory be opened near the gendarmerie? Where can it not be opened? Although we have no way to do anything to her due to her American identity, but That housekeeper seems to be Chinese, Mr. Section Chief, we can arrest him directly."

"No, Chuanneng-kun."

Yano Renping shook his head slightly: "Even if he is a Chinese but also an American housekeeper, he will still make trouble. And what I value more is the monthly rental fee of one thousand dollars. The empire's finances are tight, and the military police The team's funds are also stretched, and this money can help us solve a lot of troubles."

"You mean, rent it to her?"

"Lease it to him." Yano Renping made up his mind: "I will report to the Commander in person. Chuanneng-kun, let you keep an eye on them, don't startle them, and report to me immediately if there is any situation, I know, this There must be secrets in women."

"Hay!"

……

"Gracey has already started to act, Chief Meng, are you really sure?"

"Not sure, not sure at all."

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "There are some things, there is no loss if you try. Gracie failed, and it has little impact on us. If she succeeds, I will know whether she is the crutch I have been looking for."

crutch?

Wu Jingyi didn't quite understand what he meant.

Only he knows what his young master thinks best.

Yu Yanchu hurried in: "Secret telegram."

"read."

"The Japanese army attacked Changsha. Tang Zihuan, the liaison officer of the First Infantry Battalion of the Nara Detachment, defected. Our guerrillas responded and escorted him all the way to Shanghai. He has now arrived in Huzhou. The Shanghai side is ordered to fully respond to ensure Tang Zhi's safety."

"What?"

Meng Shaoyuan didn't react: "Tang Zihuan, the liaison officer of the Nara detachment? How do I sound like a Chinese? If I'm not mistaken, the Nara detachment is the elite of the Japanese and the main force to attack Changsha, right? Why did someone defect? ?”

Wu Jingyi and Yu Yanchu also looked at each other in blank dismay.

This situation seems a bit complicated.

Wu Jingyi asked cautiously: "Could this be a trick set up by the Japanese?"

"There's a fart." Meng Shaoyuan scolded: "If Tang Zihuan is the bait of the Japanese, what is he doing in Shanghai? Assassinate me? Assassinate me? Assassinate asshole, he won't even say whether he can see me.

Even if he saw me, he must have gone through a rigorous search. What would he use to assassinate me?Kill me?Fuck it, unless the Japanese are crazy.

Sent to Chongqing to spy on intelligence?Now Chongqing is very vigilant, and the censorship and monitoring of these people is very strict, and the slightest disturbance will be discovered. "

"Then what do we do now?"

"What should we do?" Meng Shaoyuan frowned: "I was thinking about a big case, but a defector came. But what can we do? We have to follow what Shangfeng said. Wu Jingyi, send someone to meet him."

"Yes!"

"If you can come in, find a place to settle him down and observe him for two days before talking, and then I will go see him."

"Yes!"
