Spy Wars: Get the Predator equipment at the beginning

"So that's how it is!" Zhang Yunhe's face changed slightly when he heard that.

This detail was noticed by Sakata Tadayoshi, but it made him even more confused. If Zhang Yunhe did not show any emotional changes at all, or reacted too much, he would think that there was something wrong with the person in front of him.

It was precisely this slight change in Zhang Yunhe's expression that made him unsure and difficult to judge.

Zhang Yunhe lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and asked, "So... I wonder what crime the person who reported me accused me of?"

Sakata Tadayoshi thought for a moment and said, "Corruption and bribery, using power to make huge profits for oneself or others, and selling out the strategic, economic, and military intelligence of the empire."

"After all, you work for the International Settlement Police Department. We have no jurisdiction over the charges of corruption, bribery, and abusing your power to profit for yourself or others. However, you have been reported for selling out the Empire's strategic, economic, and military intelligence. This is within the scope of our investigation, as you are a citizen of the Empire!"

"So, I hope you can cooperate with the investigation!"

Zhang Yunhe burst into laughter when he heard this: "Hahaha..."

Sakata Tadayoshi's face turned a little ugly, "Ishida-kun, why are you laughing? Isn't this a serious matter?"

Zhang Yunhe immediately stopped laughing and said solemnly, "This is indeed a serious matter. However, I am only the Deputy Commissioner of the International Settlement Police Department. Apart from being at home, almost all my energy and time are spent on work. I don't hold any position in the Empire. How could I know the Empire's strategic, economic, and military intelligence? And how could I betray it?"

A Japanese spy nearby said, "You know many high-ranking imperial officials in Shanghai and interact with them frequently. Wouldn't it be easy for you to get some intelligence?"

"Isn't this just your malicious speculation? As the saying goes, 'If you want to accuse someone, you'll always find a pretext.' You say I betrayed the Empire's intelligence, but did I really do that? Please show me the evidence!"

"If you have evidence, I will naturally cooperate with your investigation and even follow you obediently. But if you don't have evidence, then I'm sorry, but please don't bark at me. I don't have time for your nonsense!"

After Zhang Yunhe finished speaking, he looked at Sakata Tadayoshi.

Sakata Tadayoshi quickly put on a smile to smooth things over, "Ishida-kun, please don't be angry. Young people don't know the rules. Please don't argue with him. We're here today just for routine business!"

Zhang Yunhe didn't buy it at all. He turned hostile and waved his hand, saying, "Come on, get him out!"

A foreign bodyguard was very good at handling things. Upon hearing this, he immediately stepped forward and stretched out his hand, saying, "Please come in, everyone. I'll take you out!"

Sakata Tadayoshi's expression kept changing, and after several seconds he smiled again and said, "In that case, we won't disturb Ishida-kun from having breakfast. Goodbye!"

Looking at the backs of Sakata Tadayoshi and others as they left, Zhang Yunhe showed a look of sarcasm and sneering on his face.

After leaving the Ishida Villa and getting into the car, a Japanese spy asked Sakata Tadayoshi, "Section Chief, why did you only say that he was corrupt, took bribes, abused his power for personal gain, and sold information, but didn't mention that there was anything wrong with his identity?"

Sakata Tadayoshi sighed, "Ishida is no ordinary man. His position is crucial to our activities in the concession, and the higher-ups value him very much. So we can't easily touch him without evidence. I didn't mention his identity because I didn't want to alert the enemy!"

"If it was just corruption, bribery, abuse of power, and selling of information, he wouldn't be so nervous or defensive. But if we say there's something wrong with his identity, he might spend all his time and energy dealing with us, which would be detrimental to our investigation!"

"More importantly, we currently do not have any unfavorable clues or evidence regarding his identity."

The agent asked again, "Chief, could that report be a random tip-off from someone who dislikes him? If his identity is legitimate, and we continue investigating in this direction, wouldn't that be a waste of manpower, resources, and time?"

Sakata Tadayoshi pondered as the car jolted and swayed. Two minutes later, he suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Just now, Ishida said that his wife, Hanako, took a ship back to Japan yesterday to deal with some industrial issues. Go to the shipping company and the dock to find out how many ships returned yesterday. Use the radio to contact the ships and ask if there's a woman named Ishida Hanako on board!"

"Ha Yi, I'll go right away. Pull over and I'll call a taxi to go to the ferry company and the dock to investigate!"

More than an hour after Tadayoshi Sakata returned to the Special High Technology Bureau, Saburo Aso, who had gone to investigate the person who had called to report the incident, returned with a few people.

"Section Chief, according to Captain Yasauchi Yasuichi's notebook, the phone report was received on November 28th. We went to the telephone office to investigate. That day, we found three calls from outside lines to the Special High Technology Division that were then transferred to Yasauchi Yasuichi's office. We were able to track down the phone numbers and locations of all of them."

"The address is a residence at 1436 Feihong Road. Living there is a woman whose husband is a military officer who died in battle. According to our investigation, Yamauchi Taiichi has been supporting this woman for two years."

"The second address was a fur shop called Arctic Ocean Fur on Nanjing Road. We went there to investigate, and the owner told us that Yamauchi Taiichi had a custom-made leather jacket made there. We've taken the jacket back, and we also found a payment receipt for the jacket in Captain Yamauchi's desk. There shouldn't be any issues with this shop!"

"The third address is a public telephone booth in the middle of Jiujiang Road. Coincidentally, this public telephone booth is less than 500 meters away from Ishida's villa!"

"We asked many shop owners, shop assistants and residents living nearby the public telephone booth, but they all said they had not noticed anyone making calls from that booth!"

After listening to Saburo Aso's report, Tadayoshi Sakata asked, "Who do you think made this report call?"

Aso Saburo said, "Section Chief, I think this call must be from a woman who is very familiar with Ishida. Perhaps it's his wife Hanako? Even if it's not Hanako, it should be a woman who has a deep relationship with Ishida or Hanako!"

Sakata Tadayoshi nodded: "That's right, only those who are familiar with Ishida or have a close relationship with him and his wife would know that there is something wrong with Ishida's identity. Moreover, she is a woman, so the scope of the investigation is much smaller!"

"This morning I took people to Ishida's villa and met with him. Ishida said that his wife, Hanako, returned home by ship yesterday. Don't you think it's a coincidence? I have sent people to investigate the ship that returned yesterday and asked the shipping company to send a telegram to ask the captain if there was a woman named Hanako on board!"
