Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 1077 Signal

Aoki Shigeichi is offering Wang Tianfeng a huge reward to secure his loyalty.

The deeper meaning was clear to Wang Tianfeng without needing to be explicitly stated.

And he made the right choice.

After Aoki Shigeichi finished speaking, Wang Tianfeng, who was usually as cold and indifferent as a robot, surprisingly stood up with a face full of excitement.

He then swore allegiance to Shigeichi Aoki.

That eager demeanor was quite deceptive.

Whether Aoki Shigeichi believed him or not was of no concern to Wang Tianfeng. As a seasoned professional in the intelligence industry, Wang Tianfeng knew very well that as a blatant "traitor" and "surrenderee," he could never gain Aoki Shigeichi's complete trust. For now, the two were merely cooperating temporarily.

There is only one purpose.

Capture Ye Shaohong.

Before this task is completed, Aoki Shigeichi will not easily take action against him and will give him some freedom to move around.

This would allow him to track down Ye Shaohong's whereabouts.

same.

Aoki Shigeichi would also be by his side, with surveillance personnel assigned to monitor his movements at all times.

The same is true.

After bidding farewell to Shigeichi Aoki, Wang Tianfeng, escorted by Special Higher Police intelligence personnel, went directly to the headquarters of Special Agent No. 76 in Taihu Lake.

He has taken office.

On Wang Tianfeng's first day in his new position, his entourage was already fully prepared: secretary, driver, and bodyguards.

They didn't look particularly special, but with Wang Tianfeng's sharp eyes as a veteran agent, he could almost immediately discern their true identities.

Little devils.

Moreover, they are professional agents who have undergone rigorous training.

Wang Tianfeng did not comment on this.

As if he hadn't noticed this situation at all, after taking office as the head of the Taihu Station of the Wang Jingwei regime's No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters, Wang Tianfeng's first task was to closely monitor high-end hotels and restaurants in the Taihu area.

The reason is simple.

According to Wang Tianfeng, Ye Shaohong came from a wealthy family and had never suffered any hardship since childhood.

Even after joining the army, Ye Shaohong's standard of living far exceeded that of ordinary people. He was especially particular about food and drink.

When they lived in the mountain city, whenever the brothers got together, they would choose extremely high-end hotels and restaurants, and their meals were always extremely luxurious.

According to information Wang Tianfeng overheard, Ye Shaohong would not be harsh on him even when he was on a mission outside.

Therefore, in this vast Taihu Lake region, it would be difficult to find Ye Shaohong who is hiding, relying solely on intelligence networks and street personnel.

We must find another way.

The art of drinking and eating was one of the means by which they tried to find Ye Shaohong.

Once Wang Tianfeng's order was issued, it quickly reached the ears of all police stations, gangs, informants, and undercover agents in the Taihu Lake region.

All forces were mobilized.

However, Wang Tianfeng was clever; he didn't directly reveal who his target was. Instead, he instructed people to keep an eye out for any hotels or restaurants in the Taihu Lake area offering dine-in or takeout services recently.

If so, collect and record them carefully.

Wang Tianfeng's orders were immediately delivered to Aoki Shigeichi.

At this moment, Aoki Shigeichi was dressed in a Japanese kimono, kneeling on the tatami mat, sipping tea while looking through Go game records.

In front of him was a chessboard.

There are more than a dozen chess pieces on it.

After listening to his subordinates' report, Shigeichi Aoki pondered briefly, then laughed.

"very good!"

"It seems that the King truly has the will to serve my empire. I am very satisfied with his performance."

There was a reason why Shigeichi Aoki made this statement. With Ye Shaohong's strong rise to power, the Japanese were suffering more and more losses at his hands, and Ye Shaohong's life story had long been on the desks of all the Special Higher Police officers in China.

Aoki Shigeichi was naturally aware of Ye Shaohong's life story.

It's just that Wang Tianfeng doesn't know as much detail.

In Aoki Shigeichi's opinion, Wang Tianfeng's order today did make some sense. Even if it didn't guarantee that they would find Ye Shaohong's whereabouts, it at least gave them some hope.

We can let Wang Tianfeng continue operating.

But Shigeichi Aoki was still wrong.

Wang Tianfeng directed the Japanese forces to search for customers dining in or ordering takeout in the Taihu Lake area, which indeed hit Ye Shaohong's habit.

At the same time, this was actually a secret code that Ye Shaohong and Wang Tianfeng had agreed upon long ago.

It's a safety signal. It's also a signal to take action.

The fact that the Japanese and members of the 76th Special Agent Headquarters were extensively searching for food stalls outside restaurants in the Taihu Lake area signifies one thing.

Wang Tianfeng has initially gained Aoki Shigeichi's trust.

Their rescue plan is proceeding smoothly.

We can proceed to the next step.

Upon receiving the signal from Wang Tianfeng, Ye Shaohong immediately smiled.

At this moment, he was hiding in the back of a warehouse, smoking a cigarette in one hand and flipping through personnel files of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Taihu Station with the other.

After some careful selection, Ye Shaohong chose three more suspects.

He suspected that these three men also had connections with the Japanese.

Of course, this is just suspicion. There is no evidence.

However, this was enough for Ye Shaohong. Given his current status and position, he could do many things as long as he had any doubts.

After selecting the files of these three individuals, Ye Shaohong called Chi Tiecheng over.

He tossed the three men's files in front of Chi Tiecheng.

Chi Tiecheng glanced down, said nothing, and turned to leave.

That night.

The three people, suspected and distrusted by Ye Shaohong, were taken by Chi Tiecheng's men to a secluded mansion.

Chi Tiecheng told them frankly that Niu Ben, the former head of the Taihu Station of the Military Intelligence Bureau, had already defected to the enemy and betrayed the country.

He has already been disciplined by Seventh Brother in accordance with family rules and secretly punished.

Now, Seventh Brother also suspects that one of the three of them has secretly defected to the Japanese and is committing treason.

Today, Chi Tiecheng is here to enforce family discipline.

Ye Shaohong's fearsome reputation had spread throughout the intelligence circles of East Asia in recent years, and Chi Tiecheng, as Ye Shaohong's trusted general, was also widely known for his bloodthirstiness and ruthlessness.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the fields were filled with murderers.

Now that Chi Tiecheng has made it clear that he will enforce family discipline on the three of them, their expressions immediately change.

An overwhelming sense of fear instantly gripped my heart.

They shouted loudly, claiming they were wronged, and also demanded to see Seventh Brother in person to prove their innocence.

In short, no one was willing to die.

This was actually within Chi Tiecheng's expectations.

If he really wanted to enforce family rules, he wouldn't need to waste time talking to these three; he could just draw his knife and shoot them directly.

Leaving the body behind would serve as a warning to other members of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The reason Chi Tiecheng brought this up with them today and made them cry and shout was just a prelude.

Don’t want to die?

Okay.

Then we'll give you another chance. There's an extremely dangerous mission here, which is also your chance to prove your innocence.

So, are you going to answer or not?

If they won't answer, then just kill them, throw the body away, and be done with it.

I accepted it; it was a near-death experience, but I might survive.
