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

Although An Shimin spoke softly, Chai Ruhai still heard it vaguely. He didn't mind what An Shimin said because it was indeed the case.

Without An Shimin's explanation, Chai Ruhai knew that he must be a suspect as well. Of course, he was not the only suspect. He thought about it and realized that the security chief Yu Dehai and the guard battalion captain Li Chengzong were also suspects like himself. They also knew about these two things, but he didn't know whether they had told the people below.

Of course, I am not a traitor. Yu Dehai and Li Chengzong should not be traitors either. These two people are Fu Quan'an's confidants and have followed Fu Quan'an for many years. Li Chengzong, in particular, has followed Fu Quan'an for even longer. He was by Fu Quan'an's side when he fled to Dalian and was protected by the Japanese. There should be no reason for him to betray Fu Quan'an.

However, Chai Ruhai knew that Li Chengzong was dissatisfied with Yu Dehai becoming the head of the Security Department. Yu Dehai had not followed Fu Quan'an for as long as Li Chengzong and had less experience than Li Chengzong, but was more trusted by Fu Quan'an and became the head of the Security Department. Chai Ruhai, on the other hand, became the captain of a guard battalion under Yu Dehai, which made Li Chengzong feel a little resentful.

Chai Ruhai thought that this would not lead Li Chengzong to betray Fu Quan'an. As for who else in the city government was a suspect, Chai Ruhai could not think of it for the time being.

Anyway, he was bound to be investigated. Chai Ruhai sighed, what a turbulent time!

Yuan Ye heard everyone talking at once, as if they were all turning into detectives, and he found it quite funny. It was already time to get off work in the morning, but they were still not satisfied.

Yuan Ye stood up and said with a smile:

"It's time for meat eaters to plan their business. It's time to get off work at noon. It's time to eat."

After saying that, he walked out of the office and headed towards the cafeteria.

Everyone just reacted, Cui Jian sighed:

"Time flies by so fast, it's time to get off work."

Everyone talked for a while longer, then ended the discussion and left the office.

After finishing his meal, Yuan Ye walked out of the city hall gate and headed towards Hengyuan Grocery Store. He was not sure whether Gu Yan was in the grocery store. If not, he would go to Guangji Hospital to find him.

When he arrived at Hengyuan Grocery Store, he saw Gu Yan sitting at the counter. There were no other customers in the store. He walked over and said:

"Boss, give me a pack of Meili brand cigarettes."

Then he lowered his voice and said:

"Notify the fisherman. I want to meet him at the old place at 8 o'clock in the evening."

Gu Yan nodded, took out a cigarette from the counter and handed it to Yuan Ye. Yuan Ye took the cigarette, opened it, lit it, put it in his lips and walked out of the grocery store.

Gu Yan was indeed in the hospital in the morning. When Gu Yu returned to the hospital after taking leave from school, he hurried back to the grocery store. He knew that there was an action in front of the city government this morning. Although he didn't know what the action was specifically, he estimated that Yuan Ye would come to find him at noon.

When he returned to the grocery store, the clerk Xiao Li told him that at about nine o'clock in the morning, intensive gunfire was heard from the direction of the city government, and Gu Yan understood what was going on.

After Yuan Ye came out of Hengyuan Grocery Store, he walked towards the city government. He knew that this was a sensitive moment and he could not stay in the grocery store for too long. He left quickly after hearing the news. When he was almost at the city government, he saw a familiar figure walking out of the city government gate and walking in another direction from afar.

Yuan Ye recognized the person as He Li at a glance. He was startled and wondered where He Li was going.

She usually goes back to the office to take a nap after lunch. I wonder what she is doing today?

Yuan Ye decided to follow behind to see what was going on. He followed from a distance. He Li looked back twice, but Yuan Ye avoided it in time. Finally, he saw He Li walk into a telephone booth on the roadside.

Yuan Ye found a corner where He Li couldn't see him and began to listen attentively.

He Li dialed the number and a middle-aged man's deep voice came from the other end of the line.

"Who is it?"

When Yuan Ye heard it, he realized that it was Takemiya Yoshio's voice.

I thought, He Li and the Special High Police don’t have any work dealings on a regular basis, so why did He Li call Takemiya Yoshio?

She didn't call in the office, but secretly in a phone booth. Could she be from the Special Higher Police?

"Hello, Chief. I'm Bluebird. I have something to report to you."

He Li whispered.

Yuan Ye understood immediately. It turned out that He Li was indeed a secret agent planted by Takemiya Yoshio in the city government, codenamed "Blue Bird". Although he had some guesses about He Li's identity, he was still quite surprised when it was confirmed.

A Japanese female spy was right under his nose, and he had no idea about it before!

Yoshio Takemiya was not confident in the puppet city government that served the Japanese, and even planted people from the Special Higher Police.

Yuan Ye thought to himself that he should be more careful in the future.

I just don’t know what this Blue Bird is going to report to Takemiya Yoshio?

It shouldn't be directed at him. He is quite cautious in his work and has always behaved well in the department. He also has never found anyone following him.

That might be a report on the assassination that took place this morning.

"Okay, tell me what you know."

Takemiya Yoshio said.

He received the news immediately after the assassination happened in the morning and was very shocked, but he did not want to investigate the matter publicly.

Because Advisor Yamada is from the military, appointed by the commander of the Central China Front Army, Keiji Isogai, he would not be allowed to intervene in the investigation.

Moreover, the investigation team to investigate the murder of Chen Lu will be arriving soon, led by the military. What makes him very unhappy is that the Special High Section is also one of the subjects of the investigation. When the investigation team arrives, they will definitely investigate the murder of Advisor Yamada.

Although he didn't want to get involved in this mess openly, he could secretly find out some information. He immediately thought of the agent code-named "Bluebird" he had placed in the secretariat of the municipal government, and asked her to find out the specific situation from the side.

When He Li received a call from Takemiya Yoshio in the office, Yuan Ye had not returned yet, so he did not know about it. If he had returned earlier and heard it, he would not have felt a little strange about He Li's concern about the assassination.

He Li said:

"From what I know, the assassination this morning was probably done by a military intelligence agent. Of course, it could have been ordered by Fu Quan'an's enemy Su Xiwu, but this possibility is not high."

"Why do you say that?"

Takemiya Yoshio asked.

So He Li told about what the secretarial department had discussed.

Yoshio Takemiya nodded. He knew that these colleagues at Bluebird were all top students who studied abroad and had relatively high IQs, so his analysis did make sense.

He Li continued:

"I have a new colleague named Yuan Shikai. He is a classmate of Section Chief Chai Ruhai. I think he is quite smart. He believes that there is a spy from the Military Control Commission in the city government. I think his analysis makes sense."

In fact, Takemiya Yoshio had the same idea. From Bluebird's words, he had already determined that there must be undercover anti-Japanese elements in the city government.

So when Bluebird said there was a traitor, Takemiya Yoshio didn't think there was anything strange. Instead, it was her mention of Yuan Shikai that caught his attention.

"Are you saying that it was Yuan Shikai who said that?"
