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

Chapter Sixty-Four: Ma Yunfei, the Scumbag of the Republic of China

After dinner, in the villa's living room.

Beside the tea table.

Ye Shaohong and Ouyang Jianping sat facing each other, while the PhD student next to them ground handmade coffee.

On the tea table in front of him were two plates of fruit.

There were also a few dishes of after-dinner snacks.

With the whirring of the hand-grind coffee machine, two cups of rich, aromatic coffee were placed on the tea table by the doctor.

Ouyang Jianping raised his wrist and looked at Ye Shaohong with a smile.

"Young Master Ye, have a taste."

"This was specially brought back from Europe by the doctor. He usually treasures it and we've hardly ever had a taste of it." "We're actually benefiting from your presence today."

Ouyang Jianping has a very elder sister-like demeanor; a smile is always on her lips when she speaks.

Unlike a smiling tiger like Mao Renfeng.

Ouyang Jianping's smile was warmer and more comforting.

"Thank you, Doctor!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Shaohong picked up the cup, took a small sip, and felt the rich aroma on his tongue. His eyes lit up.

He turned around and nodded to the doctor.

The doctor was much more reserved. He smiled, but didn't speak to Ye Shaohong. Instead, he walked to the side on his own.

Only then did Ouyang Jianping ask Ye Shaohong's purpose for coming.

Upon hearing Ye Shaohong say that the Special Service had executed Takeuchi Yunzi and the Huang family father and son, Ouyang Jianping's smile deepened.

obviously.

She was quite impressed with the efficiency of the Secret Service's operation.

However, Ouyang Jianping's expression immediately turned serious.

"Brother Ye, you came all this way today, surely it wasn't just to deliver this message to us?"

"Just tell me what's on your mind."

This is why Ye Shaohong likes Special Agent Group No. 5. Despite their different identities and their education and knowledge far exceeding that of ordinary people, they all have one advantage.

It's about being pragmatic.

When dealing with Agent Five, there's no need to consider gains or losses.

As long as it benefits the country and its people, Agent Five will do their duty without hesitation and is willing to take risks for it.

“Sister Ouyang, since you’ve said that, I won’t stand on ceremony with you.”

"Here's what happened..."

Without much hesitation, Ye Shaohong directly recounted his discoveries of the day.

When Ye Shaohong said that there might be a Japanese spy hiding in the Tangshan Hot Spring Guesthouse, Ouyang Jianping and the doctor next to him frowned at the same time.

However, they did not interrupt Ye Shaohong's thoughts.

Listen patiently.

Only after Ye Shaohong explained his deductions and reasons did Ouyang Jianping turn around and look at the doctor.

"Doctor, what do you think?"

The unassuming doctor has always been the strategist of Agent Five. On many occasions, when faced with difficult choices, Ouyang Jianping and Ma Yunfei would consult the doctor for his opinion.

The same is true today.

The doctor did not respond immediately; he picked up his coffee cup and took a small sip.

Then he slowly nodded and said.

"It shouldn't be too bad."

"Although there is no conclusive evidence, based on Takeuchi Yunko's testimony, her experiences at the Tangshan Hot Spring Guesthouse were concealed."

"Brother Ye's speculations and doubts are also credible."

"We can try to look it up."

The meticulous thinking of a physicist allows the PhD to think about problems more calmly and steadily, and also gives him a keen intuition for loopholes and clues.

His judgment was more acceptable and understandable to Ouyang Jianping. "Good!"

"Then let's check it out."

"Brother Ye, since you dare to make such a deduction, do you have any clues about the Japanese spy?"

After making her decision, Ouyang Jianping didn't ask about the root cause; she went straight to Ye Shaohong and inquired about his other discoveries.

"There are no specific clues."

"I can only roughly identify three directions."

"First, this person's hidden identity should be quite high, and he may even have access to the funding channels for Japanese spies' activities. I discovered this from Takeuchi Yunko's confession. Regarding the monetary reward she gave Huang Jun, Takeuchi Yunko only gave a rough estimate of the amount, without revealing the source or channel. This is a very obvious loophole, and it is information that she deliberately concealed."

"Secondly, this person should not be in the National Government's power structure. The reason is simple: if he had a high position within the National Government, he should not be assigned to Takeuchi Yunko's action group, but should be in a separate group, which would be more secure and safer."

"Third, this person should be able to freely enter and leave the Tangshan Hot Spring Guesthouse, but he probably doesn't come here often. Every time he comes, he will have some contact with Takeuchi Yunzi, the purpose of which is to transfer money and goods."

These were the clues Ye Shaohong discovered through Takeuchi Yunzi's confession. Just as he said, there was no specific direction, only a general area.

Tangshan Hot Spring Resort is one of the most upscale clubs in Nanjing at present.

There are quite a few guests coming and going on weekdays.

High-ranking officials and dignitaries from the political, military, and business circles have a habit of coming here for recuperation, rest, and socializing. Ye Shaohong's decision to throw this difficult problem to Agent Group No. 5 is indeed asking the impossible.

But there was nothing he could do.

The current intelligence agency was only recently established and its personnel were too numerous and varied.

Apart from the military officers who graduated from Whampoa Military Academy, there are not many people who can truly be called special agents. There are only about a hundred members from the Honggongci Special Training Class and the Jinling Police Training Class.

The others were mostly gang members from the streets.

As for the renowned Qingpu Class, the Temporary Training Class, the Youth Training Class, etc., in later spy dramas...

It's not open yet.

It's not entirely accurate to say that the current intelligence agency is a makeshift operation, but compared to the legitimate intelligence agencies internationally, it certainly falls short.

"The area is quite large."

"However, it's not impossible to find him. Yunfei, come here for a moment."

Ouyang Jianping frowned and pondered for a moment, quickly finding a starting point for investigating the case. Then, with a wave of his hand, he summoned Ma Yunfei, who was circling around Gao Han. "Big sister, did you call me?"

While talking to Ouyang Jianping, Ma Yunfei didn't forget to turn around and glare fiercely at Ye Shaohong.

This guy is still jealous of Ye Shaohong taking advantage of Gao Han earlier.

That's petty of a person.

Ouyang Jianping was well aware of the complicated relationship between him and Gao Han, but she had no interest in getting involved. After Ma Yunfei sat down, Ouyang Jianping recounted the entire conversation between the three of them to Ma Yunfei.

After the introduction, Ouyang Jianping secretly glanced at Gao Han again. Seeing that Gao Han's attention was not on him, Ouyang Jianping spoke softly.

"Yunfei, I'm afraid this mission will require your personal involvement."

“I remember you telling me that.”

"A few days ago, two guesthouse staff members secretly passed you notes, right? They're both colleagues of Takeuchi Yunko. Do you think you could get any information out of them?"
