Secret War Silent

"That's really not there." Deputy Section Chief Zeng smiled coyly, this code book is so important, even a fool knows, how could the Japanese easily let such an important thing fall into the hands of the enemy?

Even if the entire Japanese army was wiped out on the battlefield, they would desperately destroy all important items, including code books, before they died.

Therefore, it is very difficult to seize the Japanese army's codebook on the battlefield, and it is even more difficult to seize the enemy's communication codebook on the anti-espionage front.

Luo Yao cracked the "ghost" radio station case in Jiangcheng, and later the "kappa" organization hidden case, but did not seize a single codebook.

Before being arrested, these Japanese spies destroyed the code book at all costs. This is something more important than their lives.

On the contrary, it is also the same, once the enemy has mastered the secrets of one's communication, there will be no secrets in the deployment of one's own side on the battlefield, so how can this battle be fought?

"Group leader Luo, take your time. If you need help, I'm in the office. I'll be on duty tonight." Deputy Section Chief Zeng said.

"Okay." Luo Yao said, "Can you prepare some paper and pen for me?"

"It's a small matter, I'll send it to you later." Deputy Section Chief Zeng nodded. Although Luo Yao is young, the younger he is, the less he can easily offend him. Who knows how far he will go in the future. In the future, it’s fine if people don’t remember you. If they do, it’s bad luck.

Although the work of the archives department is a cold bench, who wants to sit on the bench for the rest of their lives?

Luo Yao stayed in the archives for an entire afternoon. It wasn't until Gong Hui came to find him that he realized that it was getting dark outside, and it was New Year's Eve today, so he couldn't stay here to celebrate the New Year.

"Section Chief Zeng, please show me, can I take back what I copied?" Luo Yao handed the telegram he had copied all afternoon to Deputy Section Chief Zeng.

Deputy Section Chief Zeng flipped through it casually, then returned it to Luo Yao: "No problem, Team Leader Luo can take it away after signing."

This is a procedure, and Deputy Section Chief Zeng didn't dare to waive it for him. If this is tracked down in the future, he won't be able to walk around.

Luo Yao signed it.

Gong Hui bought a lot of things, big bags and small bags, and hired a stick to help her carry them. Obviously, it was a big purchase this time.

"Bought so much, are you planning to stay in the mountain city and not go back?" Luo Yao said.

"Don't tell me, we may have to stay in the mountain city. If I don't make some preparations in advance, I haven't bought many things yet." Gong Hui said.

"Then you don't need to buy so many, this is not in Jiangcheng, we don't have other sources of income now." Luo Yao said.

"Understood, it's not that I don't know, all I bought are necessities." Gong Hui said, "I must buy a new dress for the Chinese New Year, and gloves, are those socks on your feet torn? hole?"

"How did you know?" Luo Yao frowned slightly, the socks were on his feet, but not exposed outside, how could Gong Hui see it?

"I saw it when you got up and brushed your teeth in the morning."

Chapter 0208

When the two returned to the mansion, it was already dark.

In the yard, Luo Yao saw Shen Yu's car. In fact, this car was not his, but it was assigned to him by the bureau.

Atari/Osborn kept clamoring to get him a car so that it would be much more convenient for him to travel, but Luo Yao ignored them, they were engaged in secret work.

The more ostentatious you are, the more attention you will attract.

Who can guarantee that there will be no Japanese espionage activities near the mansion. In case of being targeted, Osborne is a foreigner and is more likely to be noticed.

But the American has long feet on his body, and he can't put people under house arrest in the mansion, so he can only regulate his going out as much as possible.

"The two of you are finally back, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Shen Yu came out of the kitchen wearing an apron, and saw Luo Yao and Gong Hui coming in with large and small bags.

"Brother Shen, why are you here?"

"It's not that I haven't been in the mountain city for a long time. I don't know many people. I'm alone. It's meaningless to stay in the dormitory alone. Why don't I come to you?"

"Didn't the bureau headquarters prepare a New Year's Eve dinner and a dance for the big party?" Luo Yao chuckled.

"It's boring. There are too many people and it's too noisy. It's not as good as your place. Although there are not many people, it's still lively, and it's comfortable to be with familiar people."

"Old Cao, what's going on, you still asked Chief Shen to cook for us?"

"It has nothing to do with Team Cao. I did it voluntarily. It's a custom in the mountain city to eat glutinous rice balls on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve." Shen Yu explained.

"Eating glutinous rice balls, I only heard that glutinous rice balls are eaten during the Lantern Festival on the 15th of the first lunar month, and on the night of the New Year's Eve?" Luo Yao really didn't know the customs of the New Year in the mountain city.

In terms of eating and drinking, it is Cao Hui who decides. At most, he should take care of Osborne's taste. For others, it is not so important, as long as it is not too bad.

Of course, the level of the chefs the mansion found is still there, there is Lao Cai who is good at cooking Western food, and there is a Sichuanese cook who can cook dishes.

"You don't understand that. Northerners still make dumplings during Chinese New Year." Shen Yu chuckled, "Gong Hui, are you from the North?"

"Well, my ancestry is from the Northeast."

"We also have several northerners here, and we also made dumplings at night." Shen Yu said.

"Really?"

"Of course, if you have nothing to do, come with us to make dumplings." Shen Yu greeted.

"it is good."

Gong Hui went happily and threw all the things she bought to Luo Yao.

Luo Yao smiled helplessly, and went upstairs with big bags and small bags. He didn't know what Gong Hui had bought, so he had to put them in his room first.

In the mansion, except for the guards and patrols, everyone else basically helped in the kitchen. It can be said that all the staff participated in this New Year's Eve dinner.

Even Osborne was very interested and said that he would cook a dish for the big guys himself.

Of course, there are also those who are not gregarious, such as Tian Shoushan who just arrived at the mansion. Because of his status, it is difficult for him to overcome that psychological barrier and integrate into the lives of Chinese people.

And Wen Xueren, his greatest pleasure is to copy and receive encrypted telegrams.

In the telecommunications office, there were many rules, he could only do what he liked under the rules, but here, Luo Yao gave him a lot of freedom.

He can hear what he wants to hear.

The interception of secret electricity is generally carried out at night. During the day, because of the intense sunspot activity, the radio interference is relatively large. If it is a long-distance communication, it is generally chosen to be carried out at night, so that the signal attenuation is small and it is not easy to appear. error.

Therefore, Wen Xueren is now in the radio room, playing with those transceivers.

"How is it? How are these machines?" Luo Yao knocked on the door and walked in. Wen Xueren, who was sweating profusely, was debugging the equipment and asked.

"It's okay, but the equipment is a little old. Just replace some components and it can be used." Wen Xueren said, "It's just that the sensitivity of these equipment to capture signals is a little worse, much worse than that used by the Telecommunications Department. .”

"No way, these are only allocated for our training and teaching. Of course, they can't be the latest equipment. Even if new equipment is ordered, the manufacturer will ship it, and it will take time to deliver it." Luo Yao explained, domestic The radio factory can produce equipment such as transceivers, but the key components cannot be manufactured in China, and the radio detection equipment must be imported from abroad.

These are not meant to be available, you have to spend money to import them, and if you buy them, they may not be shipped right away, it will take time.

There is no rush.

"Well, so I want to use these old guys first to see if I can intercept some useful information." Wen Xueren said.

"Has the Telecommunications Department ever intercepted the Japanese side's secret telegram?"

"The Telecommunications Office copies a lot of telegrams every day. Except for the registered radio stations, the remaining 80.00% are messy signals, most of which are of little value, and it is impossible to judge whether they are secret communications from the Japanese side. In terms of deciphering, according to As far as I know, there has been little progress." Wen Xueren said, after all, he used to be the backbone of the Telecommunications Department's business, and he still heard some things.

"To decipher this secret code, you need to find the direction. If you find the wrong direction, it will be like a headless fly, and you can't find a way to fly out." Luo Yao said, "Let's start with the most basic, don't worry, More haste less speed."

Wen Xueren nodded.

"Today is New Year's Eve, stop doing it, go back and take a shower, and we will have a New Year's Eve dinner together later." Luo Yao ordered.

"Okay, I'll tidy up here and go."

……

"I'm homesick." Tian Shoushan's door was ajar, and when Luo Yao walked in, he didn't notice, sitting under the desk lamp and looking at the photos of his wife and children, weeping silently.

"Mr. Luo." Terrified, Tian Shoushan hurriedly turned over the photo, put it under his hands, stood up, and said with some trepidation.

"I've seen it all. It's human nature to miss relatives during the festive season, and there's nothing to avoid."

"Mr. Luo, can I write a letter to my wife?"

"You can write it, and I can help you send it back through other channels, but this means that the secret of your 'fake death' has been exposed, and you will be designated as a shameful traitor, and your wife and children will even be punished for this." Don't start, you have to think about the consequences." Luo Yao said.

The "Kappa" case has been solved, and the secret of Yoshida Shoushan's life is no longer that important. Even if the military commander is willing to announce it directly, it will be a heavy blow to the Japanese intelligence department in terms of public opinion.

But it doesn't work that way. Killing a donkey seems to be a moment of pleasure, and if the Japanese spies are caught later, no one will be willing to cooperate.

You have to know how difficult it is to catch a Japanese spy and convert him to serve his own side. Because of this, Dai Yunong has been praised by the old man face to face.

"Mr. Luo, I..."

"Ouda, bear with it. When the war is over, you can go back to Japan to reunite with them, or you can bring them to China, it doesn't matter."

"When will the war end?"

"Don't worry, you and I will see it one day." Luo Yao said with a smile, "Don't look at your military victories, in fact, the war potential of your army is basically like this, and the international situation will move forward. At that time, there will be a fundamental reversal in the power of China and Japan, and the only way for Japan to go is defeat and surrender.”

"Officer Luo, is this your prediction about this war?" Tian Shoushan stared at Luo Yao with wide eyes in surprise. He didn't believe these words at all, and even thought it was a fantasy.

"You can take it as my prophecy about this war, because it will definitely come true." Luo Yao said very solemnly.

"Mr. Luo, if this day really happens, I won't be able to return to Japan. I want to stay in China and bring my wife and children to live in China." Tian Shoushan said.

"Okay, then it's a deal." Luo Yao chuckled.

In the eyes of Tian Shoushan, this agreement may never be fulfilled. He never thought of staying in China for the rest of his life, it was just a joke.

Of course, Luo Yao didn't take it seriously either.

"Let's go, let's go to the cafeteria to help out. Today is New Year's Eve. You Japanese may not compare to our Chinese New Year. Go and experience it." Luo Yao said, "From now on, you will go to the countryside to do as the Romans do."

Tian Shoushan nodded, silently put away the photos, and went downstairs with Luo Yao.

……

"Jiangcheng, Kui Mulang called, saying that Han Liangze has become the director of the fake Jingbei Provincial Police Department, and also the director of the Jiangcheng Police Headquarters." Coming to the cafeteria, Gong Hui, who was full of flour and making dumplings, walked over. He leaned close to Luo Yao's ear and whispered.

"Oh, who is the director of Xiakou Police Station now?" Luo Yao asked in surprise.

"Chief Chen Xi, but Dong Cheng has the final say in the Xiakou Police Department. Dong Cheng has been promoted in an extraordinary way. He is now the deputy director of the Xiakou Police Headquarters." Gong Hui said.

"Where are the nails?"

"The Special Investigation Section is headed by the Japanese. Nail is now very trusted by Sugita. We have provided information on several actions by the Tang district seat."

"Old Tang has to fail a few times, otherwise the Japanese will be suspicious." Luo Yao reminded.

"Well, I see, I will remind Kuimu Lang."

"Did you tell him in the telegram about our stay in the mountain city?" Luo Yao asked.

"Without your order, how dare I disclose information to them at will?"

"Well, don't tell them about the situation here. I will explain to them in person when I go back." Luo Yao said, "Our secret code needs to be upgraded and replaced. In the future, we need to change it regularly, so as to ensure that our communication will not be intercepted by the enemy and decipher."

"Yes, I understand."

"What are you two muttering about? Come wash your hands and get ready to eat!" Shen Yu called out when he saw Luo Yao and Gong Hui whispering at the door.

"Just come."

"Let's go, let's talk about it later, the sky is big now, and eating is the biggest thing!" Luo Yao pulled Gong Hui past him and walked into the cafeteria.

"Luo Zu, today's New Year's Eve, the day of the big reunion, why don't you say a few words?" Cao Hui, as the convener of the reunion dinner tonight, took the lead in making the request.

"Old Cao, it's just a New Year's Eve dinner, so there's no need for that, as long as everyone enjoys eating and drinking!" Luo Yao said.

"No, you have to say a few words, this New Year's blessing should be there." Cao Hui didn't intend to let Luo Yao go, this was obviously a decision that everyone had been discussing, otherwise he wouldn't have the guts.

"Okay, since it's everyone's request, I'll just say a few words before eating..." Luo Yao took a deep breath and organized the words in his mind.

Chapter 0209 "The Veterinary Station"

According to the rules of Chinese New Year in the mountain city, people are not allowed to go out on the first day of the new year. Everyone stays at home, eating and drinking, having a good time and having a good time together.

But government agencies can't.

Luo Yao is a young official, so he can't be ranked in the New Year's greetings to Dai Yunong, anyway, he is not willing to join in the fun.

It is not meaningful.

It's better to go to the archives of Longmen Huguang Guild Hall to find information.

He basically handed over the translation work to Qin Pu. Although Qin Pu translated slowly and had some bumps and bumps, he was able to get started.

Luo Yao only needs to review his translated manuscripts. In this way, he can familiarize himself with the content of the materials and reduce his workload a lot.

The Japanese materials were handed over to Tian Moriyama. He is Japanese and is more familiar with Japanese materials. Of course, when he knew that Osborne was the soul of "American Black Room", he was also shocked.

When he saw those documents, he was even more terrified. The Americans actually deciphered so many of their diplomatic secrets in the past.

Although the "Kappa" team belongs to the Army Staff Headquarters and uses the same code system as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it does not mean that he knows nothing about the code system of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
