Spy Wars: I am the Captain of the Military Police

Itai Yudai nodded slowly, his fingertips gently stroking the edge of the teacup, his eyes looking out the window thoughtfully.

"I'll personally test Ito Masayoshi's side." He turned to Zheng Yaoxian, his tone calm but somewhat tentative, "But Mr. Zheng should understand that this kind of thing requires sufficient...sincerity."

Zheng Yaoxian smiled slightly and said, "That's your business. You provide the goods and we pay for them.

We are cooperating, and the source of the goods is something you two need to consider."

Zheng Yaoxian folded his hands on his knees, his posture so calm that it seemed as if he had already expected this question.

"Oh, right." Zheng Yaoxian suddenly chuckled, his tone a little playful. "I do have one more thing to say. Aoki Takeshige, the head of the Shanghai Special High Section under your military police system, is quite a character."

Itai Yudai raised his eyebrows. "Aoki Takeshige? I don't know much about him. But I heard that he's quite capable and has been busy with the attack on Yoshida recently.

What? Is there anything about him that Zheng Sang values?

"You're interested in him?" Zheng Yaoxian raised his lips in a mocking smile, as if hearing a joke. "He does have some abilities, but his methods are quite unique."

Zheng Yao leaned forward and lowered his voice a bit. "I don't know how your Section Chief Aoki managed to get in touch with Feng Zixiong, the former Shanghai Quartermaster General."

"Feng Zixiong?" Itai Yudai and Nakagawa Ken looked at each other and shook their heads silently to indicate that they had never heard of this person. Then they turned their gaze back and waited for Zheng Yaoxian's next words.

"It's normal that you two haven't heard of Feng Zixiong. He's just a nobody to you." Zheng Yaoxian chuckled and continued, "But even such a nobody does extraordinary things.

Aoki Takeshige found him, and the two of them struck a... special deal." Zheng Yaoxian paused, observing the two men's reactions. "Feng Zixiong used his position and connections to build an intelligence network for you Japanese."

Itai Yudai and Nakagawa Ken exchanged glances again.

"Tell me in detail." Itai Yudai's voice was still calm, but it also showed some interest. He didn't know the specific situation of Aoki Takeshige yet.

Zheng Yaoxian poured the tea slowly and the sound of the tea being poured into the cup was particularly clear in the silence.

"Feng Zixiong used his position as a quartermaster as a cover and used it to plant his own people in various key departments.

These people continued to work for the Nationalist government on the surface, but in reality... they had secretly defected to the Japanese.

For example, Section Chief Wang of the Finance Bureau and Deputy Director Li of the Police Department are both his people.”

Nakagawa Ken couldn't help but interrupt: "Zheng Sang, this is normal intelligence work. Now is a war period, and it's normal for both sides to send spies to each other, or to subvert the other side's personnel.

Are you telling us about this in order for us to stop this kind of thing?

This is impossible! Even if Takeshi Aoki were gone, there would be more people involved in the intelligence work. You can't let us stop them all!

Besides, the root cause of this situation is still your government's own internal problems, otherwise it wouldn't be so easily subverted."

"You're right." Zheng Yaoxian glanced at Nakagawa Ken and said, "Feng Zixiong, I've already dealt with it.

But there's a problem now. Aoki Takeshige has the undercover list from Feng Zixiong. It's in a stamp album, and I suspect the list is on those stamps!"

Itai Yudai asked, "How many people are on the list?"

"The exact number is unknown." Zheng Yaoxian shook his head, "But according to the intelligence we have, at least twenty key positions are involved.

From the city government to the garrison, and possibly even some personnel in Nanjing.”

Itai Yudai was silent for a moment, then asked, "Zheng-san, what do you want us to do?"

Zheng Yaoxian looked directly into Itai Yudai's eyes and said, "I want that list. It will benefit both of us."

"Why?" Itai Yudai asked back, "Why should we help you clean up your mess?"

Zheng Yaoxian calmly took out a manila envelope from his arms and gently pushed it to the center of the table.

"Reason? Haha..." He tapped his fingers lightly on the envelope. "Inside is a bank safe combination."

Itai Yudai glanced at the envelope and seemed unconcerned: "Money again? And it's in the safe? Is the Military Control Commission the only one who can give money? You should know that we are not that interested in money."

"Really?" Zheng Yaoxian smiled slightly: "What if I say that there are 20 million US dollars in this bank safe?

Oh, no, after our investigation, to be exact, it should be 20 million US dollars plus more than 80 million in assets in the United States, with a total value of more than 100 million US dollars!!!"

One hundred million US dollars!!

This number exploded in the private room like thunder.

Itai Yudai suddenly stood up with a look of shock in his eyes.

Ken Nakagawa took a deep breath and unconsciously loosened his grip on the knife with his right hand.

"You...you mean..." Itai Yudai's voice trembled a little: "That safe...that safe in America!? Is that the one!"

Zheng Yaoxian sipped his tea leisurely and said, "I traveled thousands of miles to Harbin to look for the key, but unfortunately I failed.

But while the key is important, it's useless without the password." His eyes grew deep. "And now, the only Japanese person who knows the password has been dealt with by me: Professor Suzuki, who has been hiding in Hongkou."

Itai Yudai placed his hands on the table and leaned forward: "Are you sure this is the combination to the safe?"

Zheng Yaoxian just smiled and said nothing, and gently pushed the envelope.

"Trading the list for the password is a fair deal." He paused and added, "Of course, in addition to the password, the Military Control Commission will also pay the two individuals an additional reward, which will not be less than the amount in this box today." His eyes swept over the suitcase full of gold bars.

"I believe the wealth in that safe is enough to impress the two superiors. I just want the list! We, the Military Control Commission, will not let go of any traitor or collaborator!" Zheng Yaoxian said with gritted teeth at the end.

There was a long silence in the private room.

Itai Yudai slowly sat back in his seat, his fingers unconsciously drawing circles on the table.

Ken Nakagawa hesitated to speak and finally chose to remain silent.

"But you lost the key, so it's useless even if we get the password." Itai Yudai lowered his head, so as not to let Zheng Yaoxian see the uncontrollable change in his expression.

The key is in Yingzi's hands, and now she has the password, doesn't that mean she'll be getting over 100 million US dollars soon! ! ! !
