Chapter 792 Otani Genichirō has a discovery
"Alas, I am old now, and my hearing is not very good."
"Sir, I made a mistake. However, if you want to go to Gaoji Grocery Store in front, you have to add an extra ten cents."
Hu Yunqing nodded and said calmly: "It's okay, Master. Please hurry up, I have something else to do."
"Got it. Please sit tight." The rickshaw driver didn't think too much about it. He picked up Hu Yunqing and trotted forward.
The spy at the stall at the door also saw the rickshaw that Hu Yunqing was riding in.
However, they didn't think too much about it.
Hu Yunqing was dressed like an elegant teacher, and it was normal for such a person to appear here.
Therefore, no one went up to check until the rickshaw that Hu Yunqing was riding in drove away from Gao Xinji Grocery Store.
Everyone's attention is still focused on those who are about to enter the store at any time.
Shanghai Stock Exchange, Special High Section.
Late at night, in the interrogation room.
Fujino Hirofumi pushed his glasses on his nose and walked in front of Guo Zhongmin.
At this time, Guo Zhongmin no longer looked like a human being.
His body was covered with scars, with several spots of red flesh protruding outward, and you could almost see the white periosteum inside.
In addition to the body, the limbs and face were also covered with deep and shallow wounds.
The interrogation techniques of the Special High Police are not inferior to those of Unit 76. It is very difficult for Guo Zhongmin to survive until now.
"Mr. Guo, why are you doing this?" Fujino Hirofumi said in his not-so-fluent Chinese: "I admire your perseverance."
"However, now is not the time for you to show your strength. Agent No. 76 has found information on you on the spot. No matter how much you deny, you cannot change the facts."
"So, now, you only have one way, which is to cooperate with the Empire of Japan and reveal who gave you the information."
"Only in this way can you survive and leave the Special Higher Police."
"Ah." Guo Zhongmin raised his head and spat a mouthful of bloody saliva on Fujino Hirofumi's body.
"Kill me if you dare, you little devil. You want me to confess? No way."
"Mr. Guo, you are really too rude." Fujino Hirofumi took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the saliva off his body carefully, and waved his hand and said, "Asada-kun, work harder and let the Chinese know your strength."
"Hey." The interrogator Takuya Asada pulled the whip in his hand hard and walked forward with a grin.
Snap, Snap, the sound of the whip hitting the body rang out rhythmically.
"Dangdangdang." A sound of footsteps was heard, and Genichirō Otani walked into the interrogation room and bowed slightly to Hirofumi Fujino.
"Mr. Fujino, I have found something."
Hirofumi Fujino raised his hand to signal Genichiro Otani not to continue, then turned and walked out of the interrogation room.
The two walked through the corridor one after the other and returned to the office on the third floor.
After entering the office, Fujino Hirofumi extended his hand slightly to Otani Genichiro, motioning him to sit down, and then slowly asked: "Otani-kun, what did you find out?"
Otani Genichirō said, "Mr. Fujino, we have carefully checked all the items on Guo Zhongmin's person."
"Including everything No. 76 obtained from his family's grocery store. Finally, a little information was found in the book he carried with him."
"Guo Zhongmin is the owner of a grocery store, and he doesn't have many books at home."
"And on the day we received the intelligence, he suddenly had several more books on him, which made us very suspicious of his purpose."
"After research, we believe that the most likely source of his intelligence was a bookstore."
"So, I sent people to visit all the bookstores in Shanghai."
"Finally, someone saw Guo Zhongmin near Huaiyang Road in Hongkou District."
"Following this line of inquiry, we have eliminated some small bookstores and are currently targeting five."
"Tomorrow, I will arrange for people to eliminate each family one by one."
Fujino Hirofumi nodded slightly and said, "Otani-kun is indeed amazing. So, can you confirm where he got his information from?"
Otani Genichirō shook his head and said, "Mr. Fujino, we can't do so many things in a short period of time."
"However, I have an idea. If the direction of our investigation is correct, then the intersection of the handover of intelligence is the bookstore."
"There are only a few people who attend the high-level meeting. If we privately check who goes to the bookstore frequently, we will have a clue."
Fujino Hirofumi's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something: "Otani-kun, do you think there is something wrong with Minister Chen in this matter?"
"Him?" Otani Genichirō looked at him with a look that said, "Don't be kidding."
"Minister Chen is a businessman. He doesn't seem to be interested in books or anything like that. To be honest, since he was willing to hand over the intelligence to the Red Party liaison officer, I felt that he should have no problem."
Fujino Hirofumi said calmly: "Why? Otani-kun, aren't you afraid that Minister Chen did this on purpose?"
Genichiro Otani also understood Fujino Hirofumi's thoughts.
After all, among so many insiders, only Minister Chen is Chinese.
The military plan was leaked, and all the participants were high-ranking officials of the expeditionary force. If the leak was made by a Chinese at this time, the impact would be much smaller.
But if it were the Japanese, to be honest, Genichirō Otani didn't know how serious the consequences would be.
"Mr. Fujino, Minister Chen will not do such a thankless task."
"Of course, unless the Red Party can offer Minister Chen a price he can't refuse."
"Otherwise, I can't figure out why Minister Chen leaked the information."
Fujino Hirofumi frowned slightly, then nodded slowly after a while and said, "Otani-kun is right. Minister Chen is just a businessman. The Red Party can't afford intelligence of this level."
Otani Genichirō smiled in agreement and suddenly asked, "Mr. Fujino, if this matter is really related to the senior officials of the expeditionary army, how are you going to deal with it?"
"I'm not worrying too much, but the words 'senior officers of the expeditionary force' are too big."
"If it's not handled properly, we'll all be in trouble."
Fujino Hirofumi seemed to have been prepared for this, and said calmly: "Don't worry about this, Otani-kun."
"As long as you can obtain sufficient evidence, I will have a way to deal with the inquiries of the dispatched army's top brass."
"It's late now, Otani-kun should go back and rest early. It's crucial to find clues tomorrow."
For a moment, Genichiro Otani had no idea what Fujino Hirofumi was planning, so he could only stand up, bow slightly to the other party, and turn around and walk out of the office.
Silence returned to the office. Hirofumi Fujino took out a piece of manuscript paper and kept writing some names on it.
19th Division, 22nd Division, 23rd Division, Joint Transport Department, Expeditionary Force Special Service Department, Expeditionary Force General Staff...
After writing the name, Fujino Hirofumi slowly circled or crossed out the name.
A small half of the names of the dozen or so departments were crossed out, and some were circled.
When his pen tip landed on the joint transport department, Fujino Hirofumi paused for a moment, thought for a long time, sighed, and drew a cross on it...
I'll post two first, I'm still writing, the remaining one will be posted tomorrow...
