When Yuan Ye started listening, he happened to hear Takemiya Yoshio introducing Zhou Yuanju to Iwai Yuichi.

"This Mr. Zhou came from Shancheng. His name is Zhou Yuanju. He was once the deputy director of the Operations Department of the Military Intelligence Bureau and the chief of the Nanjing Station of the Military Intelligence Bureau. Not long ago, he abandoned the dark and joined the light and surrendered to us.

Just a few days ago, he helped our Nanjing Special High Section crack down on the Nanjing District underground organization of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, making a great contribution. "

Iwai Yuichi thought to himself that Zhou Yuanju was a person of high status in the Military Control Commission, but he was actually turned against by Takemiya Yoshio. He didn't know how he did it.

He nodded and said:

"Yes, Mr. Zhou is a talented person. He has made great contributions since his arrival. I think our Iwai Mansion will also need Mr. Zhou's help.

Mr. Takemiya and Ms. Masako brought Mr. Zhou here this time. Is there something going on?"

Takemiya Yoshio smiled and said:

"I brought Mr. Zhou here to help you. I forgot to mention that Mr. Zhou has another position as the head of the Military Control Commission's counterintelligence work in Shancheng. He once formulated a fox hunting plan targeting the "Silver Fox Group."

Iwai-kun, I remember I told you about this fox hunting plan before.

Mr. Zhou is here this time, Wu Gongjun can learn more about the details from him, and Mr. Zhou also brought a very important situation. "

When Iwai Yuichi heard this, he became obviously interested. There has always been a mystery in his mind that has not been solved, that is, how was the head of the Japanese Section, Chen Zongming, exposed? Was it someone in his group who leaked the information, or was Chen Zongming exposed due to his own reasons? This mystery has been bothering him until now.

Iwai Yuichi immediately asked:

"Mr. Zhou, I have something unclear and would like to ask you for advice.

How did you find out that Chen Zongmin, the head of the Japan Section of the Asian Affairs Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was recruited by us? "

Zhou Yuanju really didn't want to mention the Fox Hunting Operation again. This failed operation was a pain in his heart. If the Fox Hunting Operation had not failed, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation and become a stray dog.

Now that the Japanese asked him, he dared not not answer.

"In fact, we did not discover that Chen Zongmin had been subverted. Instead, we obtained accurate intelligence. The source of this intelligence was top secret. Only Director Dai Yunong and his secretary Mao Long knew about it at the headquarters. Even I was not qualified to know.

I suspect that this information came from within your organization, and I think this possibility is very high."

Yuan Ye was indeed surprised when he heard this. Although Zhou Yuanju did not know the specific source of the information, his judgment was correct, which allowed Iwai Yuichi to basically determine that there was a traitor among them.

Yuan Ye knew that he might become one of the suspects, but he was not very worried. Iwai Yuichi was just suspicious that he might have heard the conversation in the office while he was in the study.

And his doubts will soon be dispelled because the walls and thick wooden doors have excellent sound insulation, and it is impossible to hear conversations in the office next door in the study.

This is also the reason why he did not shy away from letting Yuan Ye stay in the study to work.

Iwai Yuichi was not surprised. He had already expected it and it was just confirmed now. Who is this traitor?

Anyone who has access to this information could be the possibility. He had screened it before but couldn't find any clues. It seems he needs to find time to think about it carefully and deeply.

He nodded, sighed, and said:

"I had such suspicions before. This is indeed a headache. I never expected such a thing to happen within our company."

Nanyun Masako suddenly asked:

"Mr. Iwai, does Yuan Shikai know that Chen Zongmin has been turned against the government?"

When Yuan Ye heard this, he cursed in his heart, this bitch is really still harboring evil intentions towards him.

Iwai Yuichi thought for a moment and said:

"He didn't know about this, it couldn't have been him, it must have been someone else.

Ms. Masako, why do you ask this? Do you think there is something wrong with Yuan Shikai?"

Nanyun Masako shook her head and said:

“I can’t really explain it, but I have a hunch that Yuan Shikai doesn’t seem to be a simple person.

Of course, I don’t have any evidence to prove that he has a problem, maybe I’m just overthinking it.”

Yuan Ye cursed the bitch again in his heart, saying that she was really haunting him.

“He is indeed not simple.”

Iwai Yuichi said.

“This person is very talented, and I admire him very much. As long as there is no problem, the empire also needs such talents, regardless of whether he is Chinese or not.

Isn’t Mr. Zhou a good example? "

He thought that as an excellent agent, it was understandable that Masako Nagumo was suspicious of the Chinese. Of course, it was also possible that she was trying to sow discord between him and Yuan Shikai.

He heard that at the dinner at No. 76, Takemiya Yoshio also expressed his admiration for Yuan Shikai and asked Yuan Shikai to write a calligraphy for him, which clearly meant making friends with him.

He knew that Takemiya Yoshio was an old fox and it was entirely possible that he would do this.

Takemiya Yoshio praised:

"Iwai-kun's way of employing people is indeed worth learning from. We should all trust and employ Chinese people like Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Yuanju was somewhat flattered after hearing this, and said quickly:

"I don't deserve it. I am willing to serve the Great Japanese Empire at my utmost."

Iwai Yuichi smiled and said:

“I really enjoy making friends with Chinese people like Mr. Zhou.

Mr. Zhou, please come to Iwai Mansion when you are free. I just heard from Mr. Wu Gong that there is something important he wants to tell me. What is it?"
