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

Chapter 697 Yama, the Seventh

After realizing his mistake, Chi Tiecheng immediately took action.

He took with him personnel from the Special Service Yamashiro Station Operations Section and also transferred some troops from the Military Police, and went directly to Yamashiro Girls' High School.

This time, they caused quite a stir.

Dozens of vibrant female students were detained by agents of the Chongqing Special Service, and their cries instantly echoed throughout the campus.

When the news spread to other schools in the mountain city, it further enraged the impulsive and hot-blooded young men and women who were unaware of the details.

Some people started saying that the Special Service's Yamashiro station was preparing to suppress the student movement. Others claimed that this was a strong crackdown on progressive ideas.

In an instant, a storm was brewing.

Countless passionate students began to take to the streets, connecting with various schools in the mountain city, attempting to stage protests and marches.

……

Yinghua Morning Post.

This is the Red Party's secret stronghold in the mountain city, and also the highest authority of the Red Party in the mountain city.

At this very moment, in the editor-in-chief's office of the Yinghua Morning Post, the leaders of the Red Party's underground organization in Chongqing are holding an emergency meeting.

"no!"

"We absolutely cannot stand idly by and watch the Secret Service arbitrarily arrest progressive students; we must intervene in this matter!"

With a muffled "bang," Niu Mingshan, the editor-in-chief of Yinghua Morning Post and the first secretary of the Chongqing Red Party, let out a sharp, muffled roar.

He was truly enraged. What happened at Yamashiro Girls' High School this afternoon reminded him once again of the era of white terror.

The memory of his comrades who bravely sacrificed themselves before him, their eyes filled with resentment before their deaths—just recalling a single scene was enough to cause Niu Mingshan immense heartache.

He was once unable to save his companions, but now that he finally has the ability, he naturally wants to make up for his regrets.

"secretary."

"This is not a good matter. According to the information we have gathered, the team in charge of this arrest operation is not the same team from the Special Service Station in Chongqing."

"It was Ye Shaohong, who had a notorious reputation at the Special Service Headquarters."

"You should have heard of his name, right? Yama Laoqi, he's Dai Yunong's most trusted lackey!"

"He personally oversaw this matter, so even if we wanted to help, we couldn't find a way to do so." The one who spoke was the intelligence committee member of the Red Party's mountain city station. He had many agents under his command who were infiltrated into the Nationalist government, and they had a more detailed understanding of the changing situation in the mountain city.

"Seventh Yama!"

"It was him?"

"I've heard of him. He's said to be ruthless and bloodthirsty!"

"They are definitely not an easy opponent."

Niu Mingshan frowned; he clearly hadn't expected the matter to be so troublesome.

But he didn't want to give up.

"Erhe!"

“You’re an intelligence officer, so you know more about the Special Service than I do.”

"Do you know what Yama Laoqi is trying to do by suddenly arriving in Shancheng and arresting students from Shancheng Girls' High School?"

Niu Mingshan originally planned to rely on the Red Party's undercover agents to pull strings and find a way to rescue the students from Shancheng Girls' High School who had just been arrested.

Now it seems that this road is no longer viable.

He could only find another way.

To find another way, the first step is to figure out the reasons why Ye Shaohong arrested the students of Shancheng Girls' High School.

"It's not clear yet."

"but……."

"But what? Tell me!"

"However... I heard that although the Seventh Brother of the Special Service is ruthless and bloodthirsty, he has never actually harmed any of our comrades since he joined the Special Service."

"In the past two years, the people he killed the most were Japanese spies and traitors who had defected to the enemy."

"Secretary, do you still remember that a few days ago, Jiangcheng executed a large number of Japanese spies and traitors?"

"That matter was personally overseen by this Yama, the Seventh Elder."

The Red Party intelligence committee member who spoke had a deep understanding of the Special Service Department, and because of what Ye Shaohong had done, he also had some goodwill towards Ye Shaohong.

That's why, after hesitating for a moment, he spoke words that were slightly biased towards Ye Shaohong.

"It's him?"

"How is this possible?"

"That guy surnamed Ye, he's a trusted confidant of Dai Yunong in the Special Service Department, and also the most notorious executioner on the intelligence front in the last two years!"

"Was he really so devoted to the country and its people?"

The editor-in-chief of Yinghua Daily was a veteran intelligence officer; he was a survivor of the White Terror era.

Therefore, he naturally harbored a degree of distrust towards the personnel of the Secret Service.

Even if the person speaking was one of their own comrades, he was certain that the other party wouldn't talk nonsense, but he still harbored some wariness and suspicion towards Ye Shaohong.

"secretary."

"This matter concerns forty or fifty girls from the mountain town's girls' high school; how could I dare to lie about it!"

"Based on what I know, Ye Shaohong's hands are indeed not stained with the blood of our comrades, and he is also a subject worth observing!"

Since Intelligence Committee member Chen Erhe had already spoken, he decided not to hide anything and revealed a little bit of information about his recent plans and the actions he wanted to take.

"Nonsense!" "Even if his hands aren't stained with our blood, he's still Dai Yunong's lackey in the Special Service. We still need to be wary of people like him."

Niu Mingshan raised an eyebrow and interrupted Chen Erhe without any politeness.

However, he was not such a stubborn and self-willed person.

They are at least able to listen to other people's advice.

After some deliberation, Niu Mingshan finally made a decision.

"How about this?"

"According to what you've said, that guy surnamed Ye has been dealing with the Japanese lurking infiltrators for the past two years. So we really can't be too impulsive about what happened today."

"A decision cannot be made immediately."

“Perhaps his current actions are aimed at capturing and searching for Japanese spies!” “But we cannot be negligent. Erhe, I order you to contact our undercover agents immediately after the meeting and try to find out the real reason why that man surnamed Ye arrested the students of Shancheng Girls’ High School today.”

"At the same time, in order to prevent the incident from escalating and so that we can mobilize our connections to rescue those female students in the future, I hope that after the meeting you will try to contact the peripheral organizations of various schools in the mountain city to persuade the students to calm down and not do anything impulsive."

"We'll make the final decision and plan after we've gathered the specific details!"

Niu Mingshan made a decision with a single sentence, which can be considered as setting a temporary tone for this matter.

The other attendees also expressed their views and support for Niu Mingshan's resolution.

After the meeting ended and everyone left, Niu Mingshan returned to his desk, his eyes narrowing slightly. "I hope... this is all a misunderstanding."

"If that man surnamed Ye isn't hunting down spies, but rather helping Dai Yunong carry out a crackdown, then he can't be allowed to live!"

"It should be eliminated as soon as possible!"
