Meanwhile, villas in Huangshan, a mountain city.

Secretary Xia Zhonglin placed a telegram on the table and bowed slightly.

"Boss, Chen Gongshu has sent a message."

"The Japanese failed to capture him at Zhabei Wharf, and intelligence agent Zhang Hai died for his country."

"He destroyed the radio and codebook before he died."

"I heard that several Japanese ronin died at the dock, and that they were killed by members of the Anti-War League."

"The Japanese suspected there was something wrong inside and traced it back to Tatsuta Kazuichi at the Shanghai consulate."

"As a result, the military police and marines clashed, resulting in the death of a consular advisor."

"The situation has now been quelled by the mediation of the Shanghai-based commander, Naotaka Matsumoto."

Xia Zhonglin recounted what had happened, and Boss Dai was shocked after hearing it.

He picked up the telegram on the table, glanced at it, and nodded repeatedly.

"Good, good, good, shifting the blame eastward, framing and slandering."

"The Japanese are really stupid; they've been completely fooled."

"There must be something we don't know about this."

Boss Dai clapped his hands repeatedly, then pondered for a moment before continuing his analysis.

"The Japanese actually believed that Zhang Hai was related to the Anti-War League and even conducted an internal investigation."

"This shows that they suspect the intelligence agencies in Shanghai are not clean."

"I feel this is the work of Stinger."

"Immediately contact the venomous snake and restore communication with the stinger."

"I want to know the truth."

He wants to get to the bottom of this.

If it really was Poison Sting who did it, then we should commend him.

The teacher will definitely look at him with new respect then.

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

Secretary Xia Zhonglin was delighted and immediately turned to walk towards the secret telegram room.

As soon as Xia Zhonglin left, Guan Yongshan, the secretary of the Confidential Section, walked in.

"Boss, Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng have been settled in."

"Just yesterday, Tang Shanhai, along with members of the 76th Action Team, arrested several traitors in Nanjing."

"He has already gained Bi Zhongliang's trust and has been appointed as the captain of the second team of the intelligence department."

"Xu Bicheng was recommended by Li Moqun and became the administrator of Archive Room No. 76."

"It's a rather undemanding job..."

Guan Yongshan lowered his head slightly and reported the intelligence.

Boss Dai nodded, then slowly stood up.

"Good, let them find a solution as soon as possible. They've found a clue to the Zeroing Plan."

"I suspect that the repeated failures of intelligence agencies in various regions are related to this plan."

"Go and inform them immediately."

The boss said very seriously.

He had received information that the Zeroing Plan was actually a Japanese spy operation targeting intelligence agents.

However, there are still no clues regarding the specific details or the list of potential suspects.

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Overjoyed to receive Boss Dai's approval, Guan Yongshan immediately walked outside.

........

"Section Chief, Director Li is here and is waiting for you upstairs."

"I need you to go there right away..."

The next day, as soon as Li Changfeng arrived at the General Affairs Department, he saw Liu Meina from the Secretariat walking over.

She lowered her head slightly and said to him.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Hearing that Li Moqun had arrived, he specifically asked for him.

Li Changfeng placed his briefcase on the table, locked the office door, and walked upstairs.

On the third floor of the headquarters of Agent 76, there is a huge conference room.

Next to the conference room was the office of the notorious traitor Li Moqun.

This office has a lounge and a tea room; it is very large and luxuriously decorated.

Despite being a lackey of the Japanese and rarely working at No. 76, this guy still knew how to enjoy life.

"Boom boom boom!"

He knocked on the door, and a deep voice came from inside the room.

"Come in!"

The speaker was Bi Zhongliang, the head of the operations department, who was drinking tea in Li Moqun's office.

The two of them have been acting mysteriously lately; I wonder what they're up to.

Li Changfeng pushed open the door and bowed slightly to the two of them.

"Director Li, Section Chief Bi!"

"What did you call me here for?"

Upon seeing Li Changfeng enter, Li Moqun kept sizing him up.

Bi Zhongliang then slightly raised his hand and pointed to the sofa on the side.

"Section Chief Li, please have a seat."

"Director Li has something to say to you."

"Don't be nervous, have a cup of tea first."

As he spoke, he pointed to the teapot on the table.

Li Changfeng, without any hesitation, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup.

"Section Chief Li is indeed young and promising."

“There are a lot of people in number 76; I never noticed before.”

"The Japanese really admire you..."

Li Moqun suddenly spoke up, praising Li Changfeng.

Before Li Changfeng could speak, Li Moqun went straight to the point.

"Section Chief Li, let me tell you the truth."

"The Japanese are planning to expand No. 76, turning Chief Bi's two action squads into a battalion."

"The Telecommunications Department will be directly incorporated into the Intelligence Department, and some new equipment will be added."

"Old Huang from the logistics department is too old to manage this huge mess."

"Mr. Fujita's idea is to separate the General Affairs Section and establish a General Affairs Office."

"We'll add fifty more support staff to manage the weapons and accounts, as well as the black market business."

Li Moqun took out several documents and placed them on the table, then slowly spoke.

Bi Zhongliang's expression was very calm, indicating that he already knew about this matter.

Li Changfeng was startled. He knew what this reorganization meant; he would soon be the head of the General Affairs Department.

In terms of rank, he was on par with Wang Manchun, Bi Zhongliang, and Huang Youliang from the Logistics Department.

However, upon hearing that he would be in charge of the black market business, he slowly stood up.

"Director Li, wasn't the black market business previously managed by the detective squad and the police station?"

"Isn't it against the rules to hand it over to our general affairs department?"

Hearing Li Changfeng's words, Li Moqun smiled slightly.

"Section Chief Li, you'll soon be promoted to division chief."

"The black market business is extremely profitable."

"The police station and the detective team were too greedy, and they got into some trouble a while ago."

"Mr. Fujita was a little worried, so Section Chief Minami recommended you to him."

"You mustn't refuse this."

"Otherwise, I won't be able to explain myself to the Japanese..."

Li Moqun spoke very seriously, his expression gradually turning cold.

Upon hearing that the decision was made by the Japanese, Li Changfeng immediately nodded.

His main reason for opposing this was that the black market violated the policies of the Japanese headquarters.

Selling goods or smuggling contraband is a capital offense if caught.

However, after the Japanese occupied Shanghai, many Japanese officers and military police were involved, implicating many people.

The Japanese just turned a blind eye.

"Section Chief Li, there's one more question regarding your promotion."

"You were recommended by Colonel Takeda of the Military Police to join No. 76."

“Your family and parents are not in Shanghai. The Japanese want you to hand over a pledge of allegiance.”

After finishing the business, Li Moqun looked at Li Changfeng and said with a serious expression.

The pledge of allegiance was, of course, to perform some meritorious service and to distance oneself from the anti-Japanese elements.

This is how you can get No. 76 reused.

After all, the General Affairs Department will be the cash cow of No. 76 in the future, so we can't be careless.

"What kind of pledge of loyalty does Director Li want me to make?"

Upon hearing Li Moqun's words, Li Changfeng's heart tightened, but he pretended to be relaxed and asked.

Bi Zhongliang, who was standing next to him, smiled slightly and stood up.

"Section Chief Li, I've discussed this matter with Director Li."

“Our operations unit arrested a communist a few days ago, but we can’t get any results out of him.”

"So Director Li wants you to kill her yourself."

Bi Zhongliang finished his tea in one gulp and looked at Li Changfeng with a smile.
