After all the people from the Political Security Bureau arrived.

Ninomiya announced, "Today, a button was found in Warehouse No. 6 at Pier 16. It was from our custom-made clothes. You can't buy it outside. Now anyone who has lost a button is a suspect."

Only then did Chen Qian realize that his button had fallen to the scene.

At the same time, Zhou Zuo also found that the buttons on his clothes had fallen off at some point.

So, Ninomiya ordered everyone not to go out until the traitor was caught.

At this time, Yuutarou Iida came back and brought a Mr. Miyamoto with him.

After investigation, Yutaro Iida believed that this action was a joint effort between the Military Control Commission and the Chinese Communist Party.

Yuutarou Iida asked Ninomiya to gather all the people who lost buttons for a meeting.

Ninomiya said to Iida Yuutarou, "I think Chen Qian is the most suspicious. He went to Pier 6 yesterday and then the fire broke out. The most coincidental thing is that the button is missing."

"I think all those without buttons should be arrested and investigated separately," Iida said.

Ergong called Wu Youyou over for questioning and asked, "How did you and Chen Qian know each other?"

Wu Youyou said, "I think Jiazi introduced them to each other. They were with Teacher Wang Kaiya at that time."

"So what is your current relationship?" Ninomiya asked.

"As for our relationship, we should be considered ordinary friends." Wu Youyou said.

Ninomiya said, "But, Mr. Asai said he is pursuing you, shouldn't you be in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?"

"Yes, but I haven't agreed yet. Asai should have told you that I'm difficult to pursue and I can't tolerate any sand in my eyes. The person I like must only have eyes for me, otherwise there's no point in talking." Wu Youyou said.

"Oh? Really? Miss Wu is really rational. Miss Wu, can you tell me what you did from what time to what time last night so that I can check with Mr. Asai?" Ninomiya asked.

"Okay, it was around four in the afternoon yesterday. I had just got off work and was about to go to the bookstore to buy something, but I ran into Mr. Asai. He insisted on inviting me to have a cup of coffee, and then we went to the cafe. If you don't believe me, you can check it out. After that, Asai told me that he had a set of chess pieces and wanted to give them to me. I was very excited, so I followed him, and then we kept playing chess. The people in the hotel can testify that we never went out." Wu Youyou replied.

"I'll check this. Miss Wu, what time did you return to the hotel?" Ninomiya asked.

"I need to think about this. It seems to be around six or seven o'clock." Wu Youyou replied.

"Okay, thank you Ms. Wu for cooperating with the investigation." Ninomiya said.

Back at the Political Security Bureau, Ergong interrogated Chen Qian again, and Chen Qian's answers were similar to Wu Youyou's.

Ninomiya reported it to Iida Yuutarou, who said, "Although Asai Mitsuo's suspicion has been cleared, I still feel that he is suspicious."

Iida Yuutarou said, "In that case, you should go and interrogate the other suspects who don't have buttons, and ask them if they have any witnesses to prove what they did last night."

"Okay." Ninomiya replied.

Afterwards, Iida Yuutarou pulled Chen Qian to play chess together and did not mention a word about what happened last night.

Iida Yuutarou said to Chen Qian, "Regarding what happened last night, I trust you 100%."

As he spoke, he observed Chen Qian's movements.

Immediately afterwards, Yuutarou Iida deliberately talked about uranium ore again. Chen Qian was a little excited and accidentally revealed some flaws, which were discovered by Iida.

Iida Yuutarou said, "I don't care about your identity, as long as you don't violate my fundamental interests."

Chen Qian knew that Iida Yuutarou was testing her, so she didn't say anything.
