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

Chapter 121 Successful Capture

10 PM, Que'er Hutong.

Ye Shaohong stood at the entrance of No. 27 courtyard, looked at the field agents standing ready on both sides, and suddenly lowered his raised arm.

Li Yunlong immediately scaled the wall and leaped inside.

His movements were quick and his steps were light; he landed without making a sound.

Then he gently opened the door to house number 27.

Seeing that the lights inside the room had been turned off, Ye Shaohong nodded slightly, and a dozen or so field agents immediately bent down and moved slowly closer.

They quickly secured key locations such as the main gate and windows. As Ye Shaohong strode forward, these experienced field operatives immediately broke windows and doors.

Before Dongfang Hui could react, Li Yunlong and two field agents had already rushed into the room.

At this moment, Dongfang Hui had just been awakened.

Her reaction speed was already very fast. Upon hearing the sound, the instant she opened her eyes, she picked up the Nambu Type 14 pistol from the edge of her pillow.

But no matter how fast she is, she can't be as fast as Li Yunlong.

As the notorious bandit leader known as the Swallow Bandit, Li Yunlong may lack other skills, but his speed and agility are undoubtedly his strengths.

The moment Li Yunlong rushed into the room, he saw the short gun that Dongfang Hui had placed beside her pillow. He raised his hand and swung it, sending a throwing knife piercing through the darkness and closing in on Dongfang Hui.

The moment Dongfang Hui raised her Type 14 Nambu pistol, the throwing knife struck her wrist. "Ah!"

With a scream, Li Yunlong leaped to Dongfang Hui's side and kicked her against the wall.

"Catch him!"

"Pry open her mouth and see if she's hiding any drugs."

Because it was late, Dongfang Hui was not wearing a coat, so there was no need to check her for any suicide chemicals such as potassium cyanide.

All we need to do is check Dongfang Hui's teeth.

These things didn't require Li Yunlong to do personally. After giving the orders, the two field agents who had rushed into the room with him immediately stepped forward.

Ignoring Dongfang Hui's desperate resistance, they forcefully pried open her mouth and then carefully examined her teeth with a flashlight they carried with them.

After confirming that there was no D hidden in her teeth, one of the field agents casually felt around on the heated kang (a traditional Chinese bed-stove), picked up Dongfang Hui's sock, and stuffed it directly into her mouth.

At the same time, Li Yunlong opened the door to the room.

"Team leader, we've got him!"

"People are still alive!"

Ye Shaohong nodded and led the remaining field agents into the room.

Just then, the lights in the room came on.

While struggling on the heated kang, Dongfang Hui glanced around and happened to see Ye Shaohong. She immediately opened her eyes wide.

The mouth, stuffed with a sock, made muffled noises.

It seems like they wanted to say something.

Upon hearing the noise, Ye Shaohong turned around and immediately a smile appeared on his lips.

He didn't say anything, but simply turned to look at Li Yunlong. "Let's begin. Be careful, everyone. We must find the radio and the codebook tonight!"

"Yes!"

This kind of search work would be difficult for others, but Li Yunlong is different. He was originally a thief, and picking locks and finding secret rooms are his specialties.

While the other field agents were still searching around, Li Yunlong's gaze fell on a dark corner of the room.

He walked over, squatted down, and gently tapped the ground and brick wall with his hand.

Then a smile appeared on his face.

Ye Shaohong also noticed Li Yunlong's strange behavior. Although he did not walk over directly, his eyes were already on Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong then reached behind him and pulled out a dagger from his waist, beginning to pry open the surrounding bricks and stones little by little.

He quickly found a point of leverage. As the dagger pierced in, Li Yunlong forcefully pried it open, sending a brick flying into the air.

He was captured by Li Yunlong.

“Hey, found it!”

Li Yunlong spoke softly, but his words still drew everyone's attention.

Anyone who has participated in several field operations knows very well that capturing a Japanese spy is a great achievement, but not the greatest one.

When he was in the Special Service Department, Dai Yunong once personally issued an order.

That was to search with all our might for the codebooks of the Japanese spies.

The codebook was even more valuable than the capture of Japanese spies.

There was a precedent for this in the Secret Service.

That's their current team leader, Ye Shaohong. Why did he rise through the ranks so quickly? Because after Ye Shaohong joined the Special Service Department, the first case he solved involved uncovering a codebook.

That achievement laid the foundation for Ye Shaohong's current success.

With role models right before our eyes, who wouldn't want to take another step forward?

Now, what was originally a joint search operation has been stolen by Li Yunlong.

Even though Li Yunlong was their superior, when they saw that he had found the radio and the codebook, the group of field agents in the room still cast envious and jealous glances at him.

"Yunlong, well done!"

"Don't rush to take action immediately. First, check if there are any hidden booby traps near the radio and codebook. If not, then carefully take them out."

These are all painful lessons.

When Ye Shaohong first obtained the codebook, he encountered a booby trap set by Japanese spies, and he almost lost his life that time.

That's why he gave that piece of advice.

"Don't worry, team leader, I'll be careful!"

Li Yunlong responded by first putting the dagger in his mouth before beginning to examine the surroundings little by little.

Seven or eight minutes later, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"No booby traps, no traps!"

"I'm going to start collecting the codebooks."

Li Yunlong believed that his temperament was already very stable, as he had received special training when he learned the art of theft from his master Li Xian since he was a child.

But this time, as he took the small codebook, he still felt his fingers trembling slightly.

Uncontrollable trembling.

“Pick it up, pick it up. As long as you get this credit, you will have hope of promotion, and you can go back to Beiping to see your junior sister.”

"Pick it up!"

Li Yunlong silently encouraged himself, and with strong psychological suggestion, he finally steadied his hands.

First, he retrieved the radio from the hidden compartment, then turned and handed it to his subordinate, instructing him to deliver it to Ye Shaohong.

Only then did he take out the codebook.

After a quick glance to confirm there were no obvious damages or missing parts, Li Yunlong's face immediately lit up with an excited smile. He took the thin book and walked up to Ye Shaohong.

"Team leader, we've got the codebook!"
