Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!
Chapter 153 Investigation reaches a deadlock
Lin Ze took the certificate issued by Kitahara Ransuke and went directly to the Foreign Affairs Office of the Maintenance Association.
As the administrative department of the so-called North China Autonomy of the Japanese devils, the Foreign Affairs Office of the Maintenance Association is responsible for foreign exchanges and management work.
But there is only one signboard for this place, and it is not their turn to negotiate with foreigners. It is all done directly by the front army.
However, some information does exist here.
The director of the Foreign Affairs Office looked very Western-style, wearing a suit and tie, and a pair of pince-nez glasses. His hair was combed like it had been licked by a cow, and his whole body was shiny and sleek.
But it was a bit shocking when he opened his mouth.
The boy's face was full of smiles. He bent down and smiled apologetically, "Taijun, if you need any information, just give me a call and I'll send it to you. Why bother you to come all the way here?"
Lin Ze put away Kitahara Ransuke's certificate and said, "Well... ahem, I'm Chinese."
The director was not embarrassed at all, and he held Lin Ze's hand, "Hey, brother! We are like-minded! Since you can serve in the Military Police Headquarters, you must have some experience. When you finish your work, I will set up a table in the restaurant in the back, and we can get to know each other, haha, get to know each other!"
Don't talk nonsense!
I haven't even seen what your wife looks like, so how can I say I'm in the same boat with you?
Lin Ze calmly pulled his hand back and said, "Director, you are too polite, but this is an urgent matter. Colonel Matsuzaki is waiting for news. Can we go and look at the information first?"
When this man heard that even Colonel Matsuzaki was paying attention to this matter, he became very excited.
"Of course, of course! Please!"
Then he led Lin Ze half a step to the right, twisted his whole body seventy degrees to the left, stretched out his right hand all the way, and took Lin Ze to the second floor.
Then he went to the archives room in person and reported a pile of information.
"Look, this was just registered two months ago. All the personnel lists of the offices that are still in Jiaomin Lane are here, from consuls and agents to cooks and guards."
Lin Ze started to look through the books while the Director of Foreign Affairs kept chattering, "Brother, I see you are quite young. I am only a few years older than you, but when I saw you, I felt like we were old friends! Haha, this is what it means to meet someone for the first time..."
Putting down the information in his hand, Lin Ze looked up at his buddy and said, "Brother, Colonel Matsuzaki is still waiting. Let's talk about it later?"
The director nodded repeatedly, "That's natural, that's natural."
After saying that, he personally went to bring a cup of tea, then closed the door, leaving Lin Ze alone to watch quietly.
Lin Ze spent the whole morning going through the entire list carefully twice, but there was not a single person named Schaeffer.
Could it be that the shepherd does not represent a surname as the military doctor said, but is just a code name?
This is a bit troublesome.
If you only know a code name and don't have more useful information, you will never be able to find the person.
Lin Ze didn't have to catch the big fish to get credit, but now the whole gendarmerie headquarters was like a possessed person, and they couldn't rest for a single day until they found the shepherd.
Lin Ze doesn't want to spend the whole day at the gendarmerie headquarters.
At noon, Lin Ze packed up and left. The director of foreign affairs insisted on having a meal with him, so he could only leave him a business card and said they could meet again when there was a chance.
He returned to the gendarmerie headquarters and reported to Kitahara Ransuke.
"Kitahara-kun, I carefully looked through the personnel lists of all the consulates and offices in Peking, and did not find anyone named Schaeffer. According to the staff there, this list is the most recent one."
Kitahara Ransuke felt a sinking feeling in his heart, but fortunately Gao Shengping and Nisong Dacheng had not returned yet, so there was still hope.
"Mr. Lin, do you think this shepherd has discovered that Omi Hideo is missing and is hiding or running away?"
Lin Ze thought for a moment, "Kitahara-kun, I don't think he would choose to flee even if he found out that Omi Hideo was missing. It would be too conspicuous for a foreigner to leave Peking at this time. Whether he took the train or went through the city gate, he would be discovered, right?"
This is also the biggest disadvantage for Western spies in obtaining intelligence in the Far East: they don’t look alike.
At that time, there were not as many immigrants as later, and there were not so many Western-worshiping dogs to take advantage of.
Kitahara Ransuke nodded, "That's right. Colonel Matsuzaki has already ordered important checkpoints such as train stations to pay special attention to foreign passengers."
"Kitahara-kun, what should we do with Omi Hideo's body?"
Kitahara Ransuke scratched his head in annoyance. "The Mainichi Shimbun guys sent someone to the headquarters and refused to leave. They said they wanted to supervise our investigation and that they must find Omi Hideo. We can't even transport the body. Fortunately, the weather is not hot. Let's find a place to dump it in the back cell."
Then Kitahara Ransuke said fiercely: "Once I catch this shepherd, I will first raid the Mainichi Shimbun's press station! These guys actually have spies among their employees, and they are so arrogant at ordinary times!"
Lin Ze smiled. Kitahara Ransuke was just speaking out of anger. Even if the Mainichi News reporter exposed the spy, he would still be able to remain tough.
This news organization is backed by powerful people from all walks of life, and it is very powerful.
The two of them drank tea and chatted occasionally until Gao Shengping and Ersong Dacheng came back in the evening.
Lao Gao looked much better and it seemed that he had had a good sleep.
Ersong Dacheng is no longer a success. There are many schools in Peking, and there are at least hundreds of foreigners teaching there.
A school like Fu Jen Catholic University doesn't care about your military police headquarters. If Ersong Dacheng wants to go and see the files, there are only two words to say: No way!
In the end he had to beg and plead before they gave him the faculty and staff list, but he could only look at it and could not take it away.
But neither Gao Shengping nor Ersong Dacheng gained anything.
Kitahara Ransuke looked at Nimatsu Daisei and said, "Did you just look at the list? I asked you to investigate whether these foreign teachers had any suspicious activities. Did you do that?"
Nisong Dacheng cried, "Kitahara-kun, it's really too late..."
"Baga! You've brought shame upon your father!"
Kitahara Ransuke then started cursing for more than ten minutes, scolding Nimatsu Daisei so much that his head almost dropped into his crotch.
After cursing for a while, Kitahara Ransuke sat on the chair and lit a cigarette helplessly.
"It seems that this Schaefer may not really be a surname..."
As it was getting dark, Kitahara Ransuke asked them to go back and rest while he went to discuss things with Colonel Matsuzaki.
Lin Ze and Gao Shengping walked out of the gendarmerie headquarters.
As I reached the door, I heard someone shout, "Brother! Brother!"
Lin Ze took a look and found that it was the Director of Foreign Affairs.
Unexpectedly, Gao Shengping knew this person and asked in confusion: "Director Lu? Why are you here?"
When Director Lu saw Gao Shengping, he said happily, "Director Gao is here too. Do you know this brother? That's great! I hit it off with this brother today and I want to treat him to a meal. I came to the door to see if I can wait until he gets off work. Since Director Gao is here too, that's the best. I've already booked a table at Chunhua Tower. Let's go together, let's go together!"
