In the office of the director of the security department of the steel rolling mill, although He Ping'an seemed to be flipping through documents at this time, the fact that he had not turned over the papers for a long time proved that his mind was not on the documents at all.

"Deputy Director!"

Liu Dachuan's voice came from the door, interrupting He Pingan's thoughts.

"Dachuan, have the three people you brought back spoken?" He Ping'an looked at Liu Dachuan and asked

"Deputy Director, the three confessed to their identities as spies. At the same time, the three also confessed that their superior is Feng Zhi, the cashier of the Finance Department, and they have always been under Feng Zhi's command, including this operation!" Liu Dachuan put the confessions of the three in front of He Ping'an.

"Well, I won't read the confession. You can take it back. By the way, take this with you. This is the information of Feng Zhi, the driver and their family. If we can't get the whereabouts of Feng Zhi and the driver from those five people, issue a joint investigation notice. We must catch the two in the shortest time, especially Feng Zhi!" He Ping'an handed the information prepared by Zhou Cheng to Liu Dachuan.

"Yes." Seeing that He Ping'an had no other instructions, Liu Dachuan saluted and turned to leave.

Although all the signs now prove that the robbery of the steel mill was planned by Feng Zhi, the cashier of the Finance Department, He Pingan still believes that Wei Youlai, the Chief of Finance, must have been involved. Although there is no evidence, He Pingan believes in his intuition. After all, his intuition has never let him down.

"Feng Zhi" He Pingan uttered a name. If Wei Youlai was really suspicious, then as the contact person and actual commander of those spies, Feng Zhi must know Wei Youlai's identity. But He Pingan did not intend to follow the routine to find and arrest people, and then try every means to pry Feng Zhi open his mouth. Thinking of the files he just checked, He Pingan prepared to "talk" with Wei Youlai.

"Hello, Chief Wei, because of what happened this morning, I have no choice but to resort to this. I'm sorry to have wronged you! I apologize!" He Ping'an looked at Wei Youlai apologetically.

"It's okay, I can understand! Before this matter is investigated clearly, everyone who went to the bank this time is a suspect, including me!" Wei Youlai responded to He Ping'an's apology with an open-minded attitude and said he didn't care.

"If it weren't for what happened today, I really wouldn't have known that you joined our party 40 years ago and had been lurking until the liberation of Peking. In a sense, you are my predecessor! I won't beat around the bush. I wonder what you think about what happened today?" He Ping'an first expressed his emotion, and then turned the topic to the case.

"Hey, it's not hard work, I just want to do something for the country! As for what happened today, I should bear the main responsibility. If I hadn't believed Feng Zhi's words and suggested to Deputy Director Li to pay the workers' wages in advance, today's incident wouldn't have happened. And if I had been more vigilant, I wouldn't have been so easily fooled by Feng Zhi!" Wei Youlai said he took responsibility, but he pushed everything onto Feng Zhi. He Pingan said he learned something!

"Chief Wei, I just read your statement. You said that you had a stomachache when you went to withdraw money because you drank the tea brewed by Feng Zhi this morning. As a result, Feng Zhi got the driving route from you, which led to the robbery of the money! Is that right?" He Pingan asked

"Alas! It's all my fault! Since liberation, I gradually lost my original vigilance and fell into Feng Zhi's trap, causing such a huge loss to the country!" Wei Youzi blamed himself

"You are an old underground expert. I have a problem that I can't figure out. Could you please give me some advice?" He Ping'an said, looking like he was asking for help, and handed a cigarette to Wei Youlai.

"Director He, you are overpraising me. I just have more experience! As long as we can catch Feng Zhi as soon as possible and recover the money, I will tell you everything I know!" Wei Youlai made another impassioned speech.

"Why, didn't Dong Hai tell you that we have recovered the money? This Dong Hai, wait and see how I will deal with him later!" He Pingan was furious when he heard Wei Youlai's words.

"Director He, what did you say?" Wei Youlai looked at He Ping'an in disbelief.

"We have recovered the money and arrested all the people involved. According to discipline, there are some things that I cannot tell you, but you are also an old underground party member, so I will not hide it from you. This seems to be a robbery, but it is actually a sabotage operation by Kuomintang spies! But how can these rats in the gutter be our opponents? This time, not only did we catch them all in one fell swoop, but we also found a radio and a code book from a tavern in Zhengyangmen!" He Ping'an said proudly.

"Congratulations, Director He. I didn't expect that Director He could solve such a big case so quickly!" When Wei Youlai heard about the tavern, he knew that He Ping'an had not lied to him. However, his many years of intelligence career made him calm down quickly, and he smiled and congratulated He Ping'an.

"Hey! To be honest: every time the finance department goes to the bank to withdraw money, I will send the political security team to follow behind. I'm sure you've heard about the strength of the political security team! They're just a bunch of rats!" He Pingan showed off his achievements

"Then, what about Feng Zhi?" Wei Youlai looked at He Ping'an's complacent look and asked cautiously.

"Feng Zhi? Is it important?" He Ping'an was sure that Wei Youlai did have a problem after testing him just now. Now that he saw him asking about Feng Zhi's situation again, he stopped pretending.

"Of course, isn't Feng Zhi important as the mastermind?" Wei Youlai still wanted to mislead He Pingan

"Feng Zhi is indeed important, but I'm afraid that's only to Section Chief Wei!" He Pingan said coldly.

"Director He, what do you mean?" Wei Youlai frowned and looked at He Ping'an, seeming to be quite dissatisfied with him.

"There are only three possibilities for today's incident: First, Feng Zhi was the mastermind who planned everything; second, Section Chief Wei was involved, but the mastermind was still Feng Zhi; third, Section Chief Wei was the mastermind, and Feng Zhi was just your scapegoat, or Feng Zhi had always been your substitute!" At this point, He Ping'an didn't want to argue with Wei Youlai, and said directly

"Director He, as an old party member, I want to remind you: Although I, Wei Youlai, am only a section chief, I have been lurking in Peiping for so many years and have made contributions! You will be punished for slandering heroes without any evidence!" When Wei Youlai heard He Ping'an's words, he secretly laughed at He Ping'an for being so young and actually revealing such important information to him.

"Wei Youlai, you guessed that I didn't catch Feng Zhi, and you think I can't do anything to you, so you became arrogant, right? Since you are so good at guessing, guess why I come here to confront you without any evidence?" He Pingan looked at Wei Youlai with disdain.

"Sorry, I don't understand what Director He means! I'm tired, please go ahead!" After Wei You finished speaking, he walked towards the bed, as if he was really ready to rest.

"Since Section Chief Wei is tired, I won't disturb you to rest! Let me tell you two more things: First, the political security team does follow the motorcade every time, and this time is no exception, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to solve the case so quickly. It was just for safety reasons that I didn't follow Feng Zhi. But I captured eight people alive, and I will also issue a notice for joint investigation. You know the power of our government, Feng Zhi can't escape!"

"Secondly, I will report today's events in the newspaper, but the protagonist will not be me, but you, the senior. The newspaper will then state that you have come to your senses and cooperated with the government to catch all these KMT spies! I'm sure that some people in Taiwan will know about this and, in order to serve as a warning to others, they will not only make your dirty deeds known to everyone, but they may even let you enjoy their "house rules"!"

"By the way, let me ask you: after you were arrested, what did you use to save your life? Did you sell out your comrades, or write a letter of repentance, or did you do both?" After He Ping'an finished speaking, he ignored Wei Youlai, who was ashen-faced, and left.
