Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

Out of her professional sensitivity as an excellent agent, Masako Nagumo is skeptical about everything and everyone.

Yuan Ye knew that all this was the aftermath of Ono Keiji's diary. Apart from that, he was confident that there was nothing else that could arouse suspicion.

Even if Keiji Ono's diary recorded where he had seen him, but he didn't remember it at all, it didn't mean that there was anything wrong with him.

Is it possible that Keiji Ono remembered it wrongly? Or was he seeing someone who looked like him? Who can guarantee that their memory will not be wrong?

Ichiro Ozawa saw that Masako Nagumo was still worried and thought, what a suspicious woman.

He had no choice but to answer:

"Captain Nanyun, I assure you that we were just drinking and talking about literature. We didn't talk about anything related to the Special Higher Police, let alone any political topics."

Ichiro Ozawa looked very confident, and it was indeed true. He was not afraid of Masako Nagumo's suspicion at all.

When Ozawa Ichiro was speaking, Masako Nagumo deliberately glanced at him. He didn't look like he was lying, so she thought that it was probably her professional habit or she was just overthinking it.

She nodded and stopped asking questions. She led people into Li Chengzong's office and searched it carefully, but found nothing valuable.

It was already noon when Masako Nanyun finished searching Li Chengzong's office. Fu Quan'an entertained Iwai Yuichi, Zhang Shicheng, Masako Nanyun and others in a luxurious private room in the city government cafeteria, and the heads of various departments of the city government accompanied them.

Iwai Yuichi also specially called Yuan Ye. During the dinner, Iwai Yuichi praised Yuan Ye in front of everyone, which naturally made people who were not familiar with Yuan Ye look at him with admiration.

After dinner, Iwai Yuichi, Zhang Shicheng and others left the city government and went back because of something.

Yuan Ye also left the city hall on the pretext of buying cigarettes and came to Hengyuan Grocery Store. He also observed on the way that no one was following him. He also paid attention to the movements around the grocery store and found no suspicious persons, which meant that nothing unexpected happened when Gu Yan went to the vegetable market in the morning.

He was still a little worried before. Zhu Xiang's attitude was unclear. If he told Fu Quan'an that he had persuaded him to kill Fu Quan'an, there was a possibility that he would set up an ambush near the vegetable market to trap him. Although he had considered this situation and taken precautions, he could not say that there would be no accidents.

It is better to be safe than sorry. Once an accident occurs, Hengyuan Grocery Store, as a contact point, cannot guarantee that nothing will happen. It is always better to be more careful.

When he entered the Hengyuan Grocery Store, he saw Gu Yan sitting at the counter, seemingly waiting for his arrival. As usual, Yuan Ye bought a pack of cigarettes first, and then followed Gu Yan to the second floor of the Hengyuan Grocery Store. As soon as he entered the inner room, Yuan Ye couldn't wait to ask:

"How was the situation this morning? Did you see Zhu Xiang?"

Gu Yan said:

"I went to the market where Zhu Xiang often buys vegetables very early today. I observed the surroundings and found nothing suspicious. Later, Li Hui also came. Of course, he didn't notice me, but after waiting for two or three hours, I didn't see Zhu Xiang, which means he didn't come to the market to buy vegetables today."

"Oh, didn't he come to the market to buy vegetables?"

Yuan Ye thought quickly in his mind and then said:

“He didn’t come to Laichang to buy vegetables. He might have asked someone else to do it. He probably hasn’t made up his mind yet and is still considering it.

But at least it shows that he didn't tell Fu Quan'an about our persuasion. Otherwise, the market would definitely not be safe. There is still hope for this matter, but we just have to wait."

Gu Yan nodded and said:

"I think so too. It seems that we can only wait now, but I don't know how long we will have to wait."

"Wait a few days and see what happens. You must tell Li Hui and don't take it lightly to prevent any accidents. It's better to be safe than sorry."

Yuan Ye said very solemnly.

He knew that once Zhu Xiang had thought it through, there would be only two possibilities. One possibility was that he would agree to assassinate Fu Quan'an. Of course, this would be the best, and this was also the result he hoped to see.

The second possibility is that he will tell Fu Quanan that the Military Control Commission has bribed him. Fu Quanan will certainly not miss this opportunity and will definitely join forces with the Japanese to set a trap to lure him in. This is somewhat dangerous, so one must be vigilant at all times to prevent accidents. This is also the important reason why he instructed Gu Yan.

"I will definitely pass on your words and let Li Hui stay alert at all times."

Gu Yan also knew the unpredictability of this matter. After all, none of them knew Zhu Xiang very well, and they had no way of judging what Zhu Xiang would think. They could only take action based on the worst-case scenario.

Gu Yan continued:

"The fisherman said he wanted to see you. He has something important to discuss with you in person."

"When? Where shall we meet?"

Yuan Ye asked. He thought, it must be something very important, otherwise he wouldn't meet him in person.

"He said tonight at eight o'clock, at the old place."

"Okay, I get it. I can't stay here for long. This morning the investigation team came to the city government to investigate the murder of Chen Lu and two Japanese advisors. I have to hurry back to the office."

Yuan Ye knew that it would be better to return to the city government early. Although Iwai Yuichi was gone, Nanyun Masako was still there, so as to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

Gu Yan became a little nervous when he heard this and said:

"The investigation team coming to the city government may do something bad to you. You must pay attention to safety. If you find anything wrong, you should evacuate as soon as possible."

Yuan Ye smiled and said:

"Don't worry, I've found a scapegoat. They won't trace it back to me. I'll tell you the details later. I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go."

After Yuan Ye finished speaking, he went downstairs, walked out of the Hengyuan Grocery Store, and went straight back to the city government.

Iwai Yuichi and others left, but Nagumo Masako stayed with her people because the investigation work had not been completed yet and had to be continued in the afternoon.

She gathered together the people from the guard brigade that Li Chengzong was familiar with and questioned them one by one. These people were a little surprised that Li Chengzong had escaped. They had not expected that in addition to Qian Hao, Li Chengzong was also a mole planted by the Military Control Commission in the municipal government.

However, Nanyun Masako did not ask anything valuable. Everyone said that Li Chengzong looked relatively normal and there was nothing wrong with him. It was just that he seemed a little worried yesterday. I don’t know if this was an abnormal situation.

Masako Nanyun was a little disappointed with the results of the investigation, but she was not too surprised. Li Chengzong was able to hide so deeply and deceive so many people around him. He must be a well-trained and experienced veteran. How could he be easily discovered by others?

Yuan Ye thought, this Nanyun Masako has been messing around for half the afternoon but hasn't gotten to the point. I wonder what she's going to do next?
