Seeing Wu Shicai leave, Luo Xingchao immediately picked up the phone: "Yuan Feng, come here now."

Soon Cui Yuanfeng rushed to the office, closed the door tightly, and asked in a low voice: "Director, is there anything?"

Luo Xingchao came to the window, looked at Wu Shicai's back as he hurriedly left downstairs, recounted the conversation just now, and said in a deep voice: "Wu Shicai is acting abnormally. I see his eyes flashing. Sheng Zhiyuan's death made him so nervous. There must be something in it. You arrange someone to keep an eye on it, maybe this time you can catch his handle."

"yes!"

Cui Yuanfeng nodded and agreed, thinking for a while and then spoke: "The biggest weakness of Wu Shicai is greed for money. This matter must be related to money. He has to leave the stalls as big as Shanghai and West to manage them alone. The benefits are abundant. Will there be problems?"

"Smart!" Luo Xingchao pointed Cui Yuanfeng with his hand and smiled with satisfaction, "Do you know why Sheng Zhiyuan went to the concession?"

"Why?"

"He is going to trade stocks! In the past six months since the outbreak of the European war, the stocks of foreign companies have been rising. Now the rich people in Shanghai are rushing into the exchanges on Ermalu, and many people have made a lot of money. According to Cha Yutang, Sheng Zhiyuan has also made great profits during this period. I guess Wu Shicai has also had financial contact with him. You can start from this aspect and check it out carefully."

Cui Yuanfeng's eyes lit up, his brain turned rapidly, and soon understood Luo Xingchao's meaning, and analyzed: "You mean, they are likely to join forces to speculate in stocks. Wu Shicai invested money in Sheng Zhiyuan. Yes, it should be so. This guy will never let it go as long as he has a wealth. Now that stock trading is so profitable, he must be jealous. The exchange is in the concession, and Wu Shicai is the big leader of No. 76. The goal is too swaggering, so he dare not show up in the concession, so he operates through Sheng Zhiyuan?"

"This idea is very reliable, I guess that's it!" Luo Xingchao said approvingly.

The gambling and drug business in West Shanghai is the main source of funds for the No. 76 Agent Headquarters, and the operation of the business is controlled by local Qinggang disciples.

As Li Zhiqun's number one confidant and leader of the Qing Gang, Wu Shicai has always been responsible for this management work. These businesses bring huge profits to the agent headquarters every month.

Part of this money was handed over to the General Affairs Office, and as the operating funds of the entire organization, part of it was taken for themselves by Li Zhiqun, Wu Shicai and others.

Of course, Li Zhiqun must take the big shot in this, and senior cadres like Wu Shicai and Luo Xingchao also take part of each according to their level. However, as a direct manager, Wu Shicai naturally gained more benefits, but Li Zhiqun also acquiesced.

Luo Xingchao never cared about it and took as much as he gave it, but this time Wu Shicai's abnormal reaction made him feel that this might be a good opportunity to attack Wu Shicai.

You should know that although Luo Xingchao was temporarily in charge of Li Zhiqun, in fact, Wu Shicai controlled the operational power and financial power of the agent headquarters in one hand, which made Luo Xingchao naturally dissatisfied. If he had the opportunity to get rid of this stumbling block, he would of course not let it go.

"By the way, these days have passed. How has the investigation been done about that matter? Haven't he confirmed his identity yet?"

What Luo Xingchao asked was naturally the mysterious man who was detained by Li Zhiqun alone in the backyard of No. 76. Because there was too little information, the investigation of his identity had been progressing smoothly, and Luo Xingchao couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Cui Yuanfeng quickly replied: "This matter has already made some mistakes. We have confirmed his identity, but it will be difficult to follow up further!"

Luo Xingchao was excited. It had been a long time since he gave this task to him. Finally, good news came. He hurriedly said, "Oh, let me tell you!"

Cui Yuanfeng reported in detail about the investigation during this period. It turned out that Cui Yuanfeng secretly sent someone to take photos of the middle-aged man based on some previous information and found several relatives he had on the black market. After a while, he was finally recognized by a familiar person. This person was Feng Sinian, who was a broker in the black market in Shanghai two years ago.

Luo Xingchao asked in confusion: "Feng Sinian? A black market broker who has disappeared for two years, why did Li Zhiqun arrest him?"

"According to our investigation, Feng Sinian worked for an arms dealer before he disappeared, doing some errands and tricks, but it suddenly disappeared two years ago. I am going to continue investigating along this line."

"Martial Merchant? Who is it?"

"I am an American, and everyone in the industry calls him Philip. If we continue to investigate, we will know that it is Phillips, the military officer of the US Consulate in the public concession. This man specializes in smuggling high-end arms and can get any kind of weapons. But he rarely shows up. Unless he is an old man in the black market, he doesn't know this relationship at all. I judge that in the past two years when Feng Sinian disappeared, he must have something to do with his boss. As long as he investigates where Feng Sinian has been going in the past two years, he can know why Li Zhiqun arrested this person and what is their intention?"

Luo Xing raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you want to continue investigating Phillips? He is the military officer of the US Consulate? Our people cannot go deep into the concession, let alone investigate the US diplomats."

Cui Yuanfeng nodded and said, "Phillips' situation is special. He is an American diplomat. It is difficult for us to get in touch. I plan to send some ears and ears from the Qing Gang into the concession, but I guess the effect is not great, and doing so will easily alarm the enemy, so..."

"Okay, we don't have to do anything in the concession." Luo Xingchao waved his hand and interrupted Cui Yuanfeng's words, "Don't forget that we are not fighting alone. The Intelligence Department has enough power in the concession. It is more convenient and safer than us. I will report this matter to Shangfeng, and your investigation will end here!"

The concession area has always been a weak link for the agents of the No. 76 agent headquarters. Various anti-Japanese organizations are entrenched here. Even the Qinggangkou in the concession has no good impression of the Japanese and the pseudo-government for various reasons. It is too difficult to continue the investigation. Luo Xingchao decided to terminate the investigation. So far, Cui Yuanfeng's actions have been quite large. If he continues to investigate, he will take a little risk.

"You bring me the photo of Feng Sinian and I will hand it over to the intelligence department together. We should not act too much at this stage."

"Yes!" Cui Yuanfeng took the order and retreated.

Two hours later, Luo Xingchao came to his dedicated contact point and handed over the investigation results and photos to the liaison officer.

He had been working under Yi Huaan's leadership before, and the liaison officer's information was handed over to Yi Huaan. However, Yi Huaan and Ning Zhiheng went to Nanjing together. In order to facilitate contact, they temporarily handed over the contact channel to Zuo Gang, who was still lurking in the city. Zuo Gang and Luo Xingchao had cooperated several times, and he knew that there was an insider in the agent's headquarters.

After receiving the information, Zuo Gang did not dare to delay, so he entered the public concession as soon as possible and reported to Huo Yueze.

When Huo Yueze learned about these situations, he was also a little surprised. Why did the matter involve Phillips?

Of course, Huo Yueze knew that Phillips was not just an arms dealer in the black market. He had a more secret identity, that is, one of the very important members of the Shanghai Intelligence Network, holding a large number of precious intelligence resources. The Shanghai Intelligence Department has to reach huge transactions with this person every year. The two are very reliable business partnerships. Now that things involve Phillips, Huo Yueze has to be alert.

He looked at the photo in his hand carefully and murmured to himself: "Not to say, this person really looks familiar!"

Feng Sinian in the photo looked haggard and her image was very down-and-out, but Huo Yueze vaguely saw some familiar outlines. However, Ji Hongyi was the one who was most familiar with the intelligence network, and he immediately called Ji Hongyi over.

When Ji Hongyi rushed over, learned about all the situation, took the photo and carefully identified it, and finally nodded and said, "Although the image has changed a lot, I can still remember this person. When we first bought Tienti explosives from Phillips, it was the thread that this person was tied. But later we couldn't use this person for our transactions, and we never saw each other again. I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of No. 76 now."

"It's really him!"

Huo Yueze breathed out a breath, his face a little bad. He only met Feng Sinian two years ago. At that time, in order to explode the Fukuoka warehouse, he found Phillips through the black market broker Feng Sinian. Now, after hearing Ji Hongyi's words and confirming this, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

He walked around the house with his hands behind his back, always feeling worried. There was always a reason for Li Zhiqun to arrest Feng Sinian. The matter was so secretly done and spent these twists and turns. What was Li Zhiqun's purpose? His eyes looked at Ji Hongyi and asked, "You said, why did Li Zhiqun arrest such a person?"

Ji Hongyi knew what Huo Yueze was worried about and comforted him: "Section Chief, don't worry, Feng Sinian is just a little man who matches him, and he doesn't know anything. We had contacted him for a limited number of times and did not indicate his identity. Phillips would not be able to be decent and would not reveal our identity."

Although I knew what Ji Hongyi was right, I came into contact with Feng Sinian just to buy arms and explosives. Later, Phillips recognized their identities and introduced them into the intelligence market. Feng Sinian should not know their identities.

But Huo Yueze was still a little worried. He shook his head and said, "It's always good to be careful! Now that the seat is not in Shanghai, we lack a talisman. Once we are negligent, it may lead to a big mistake. I will meet Phillips immediately to understand Feng Sinian's specific situation. I feel that Li Zhiqun's goal is probably us, and we must prevent problems before they happen."
