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

Chapter 922 Life and Death Decided During Conversation

The initial operations went very smoothly.

In just two days, thanks to the groundwork laid in the early stages, three people volunteered to speak out.

They were all being watched by Chi Tiecheng and Li Yunlong.

He was quickly arrested and brought to justice.

Inside the Zhazidong prison, how long did these three men endure the severe torture?

He confessed immediately.

The result, however, was somewhat disappointing.

These three people do have problems, but none of them are the targets Ye Shaohong is looking for.

Two of them were intelligence brokers. They secretly colluded with several intelligence dealers in Shanghai's black market, exchanging national interests for monetary gain.

The other one was an intelligence agent of Yan Xishan, the notorious scoundrel in the Northwest.

As for why he was concerned about this matter, he himself did not know; it was simply a task assigned to him by his superiors.

Upon hearing this news, Ye Shaohong's face darkened.

He almost cursed.

"Hold!"

"Why are they causing trouble at such a crucial moment?"

"Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

For a moment, Ye Shaohong was also in a dilemma.

He was considering whether to kill the three men directly, since their actions had harmed the Military Intelligence Bureau, no matter what.

It's not a pity to die.

But he couldn't make a decision right away. He could execute one or two of them, and then contact their superiors to temporarily conceal their whereabouts under the pretext of a job transfer.

Do everything possible to avoid attracting the attention of those with ulterior motives.

But if all three of them were eliminated at once, the situation would be different.

No one could guarantee that the Kwantung Army spy hiding money in the Military Intelligence Bureau wasn't secretly monitoring these people.

Are there any people he knows among these individuals?

Were there any pawns he sent out?

Thinking of this, Ye Shaohong also became determined, and he made a phone call to Mao Renfeng's office.

"Brother Mao, this is a bit of a problem."

"Could you come over here?"

Within the entire Military Intelligence Bureau, there were probably very few people who could speak to the smiling tiger Mao Renfeng in such a way. Ye Shaohong was one of them.

When he made the call, Mao Renfeng immediately came running over.

After the two met, Ye Shaohong didn't waste any time and immediately told them about his discoveries over the past few days, as well as his concerns.

He wanted to ask Mao Renfeng for his opinion.

Um…….

To be more precise, he was trying to shift the blame.

Letting three undercover agents with irrefutable evidence of their crimes go unpunished will have far-reaching consequences.

Ye Shaohong did not want to take on this responsibility.

He wanted Mao Renfeng to step in.

But Mao Renfeng was too shrewd; he didn't want to take on this responsibility, he just wanted to reap the benefits without sowing.

"No, Shao Hong!" "Now that those three have confessed, we can't let them come back."

"If something goes wrong, neither of us can explain it to the Director."

"Do you think there are any other ways to resolve this matter?"

Mao Renfeng frowned and immediately gave a negative answer.

"damn thing."

"In the end, I'm still cleaning up your mess, and you're not taking any responsibility at all!"

"What are you thinking about? There's nothing to worry about!"

"No, I have to involve you in this. You think I'll do all this for nothing and then take all the responsibility? No way!"

Ye Shaohong cursed inwardly, but his expression remained unchanged. He tapped the table lightly with his hand.

After a moment, Ye Shaohong finally responded.

"Brother Mao."

"No matter what, it's impossible for these three people to disappear together."

“If we alert the spy sent by the Kwantung Army and he becomes completely silent, we will have no chance to capture him.”

"Neither you nor I can explain this to the Director."

"However, I have thought of a solution, but I need your help. You can't refuse."

The two cunning old foxes began a fierce and scheming battle of wits.

Neither side was willing to back down.

The atmosphere in the office suddenly became heavy.

Mao Renfeng still wanted to use his persuasive skills to convince Ye Shaohong to take responsibility. He even offered a condition: he promised to owe Ye Shaohong a favor.

Ye Shaohong refused without hesitation.

The reason remains the same.

The responsibility was too great for him to bear.

Having no other choice, Mao Renfeng eventually asked Ye Shaohong for his opinion.

Ye Shaohong's reply was also very simple.

These three people definitely can't all disappear, but the two intelligence brokers are too dangerous.

They cannot stay either.

Therefore, Ye Shaohong's opinion on how to deal with these two people was quite direct.

They were secretly cut off.

However, the approach needs to be slightly different.

One of them was to make him disappear in secret, leaving no trace of his remains, and the message released to the outside world was also very simple.

He was transferred from his post due to work requirements.

As for the other person, they arranged a car accident for him.

Let him die in public.

The accident scene can be made to look gruesome, like the person losing an arm or a leg, or having their brains splattered.

They definitely couldn't have survived.

Although this arrangement could not be perfect, the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters had a large number of personnel, and it was common for people to be transferred out and in every once in a while.

No one could find fault with it.

As for the person who died unexpectedly, well, all I can say is that he was unlucky.

If you feel that this arrangement is not perfect enough, you can add some more drama to it.

For example, being caught having an affair, encountering robbers, or chasing a thief are all possible scenarios.

At worst, when settling accounts later, we can find an unlucky guy in a local prison and make him take the blame.

With witnesses, physical evidence, and the accident scene all available, it's enough to silence anyone.

The only remaining person, Yan Laokou's subordinate from the Northwest, is the most difficult to deal with.

If such a person is discovered, according to the original rules of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he will definitely be secretly executed.

There was absolutely no way out.

But that kid was lucky; he happened to be caught in the act of capturing a Kwantung Army spy. If they didn't want to alert him, they had no choice but to let him live for the time being.

Even if we let him off the hook for now, we can't let him continue to roam around outside.

We can't let him secretly gather intelligence on the Military Intelligence Bureau anymore. Therefore, we have to find him a suitable new employer, a place where he can be secretly monitored.

Fortunately, Mao Renfeng's secretary's office was a good choice.

Within the Military Intelligence Bureau, anyone transferred to the secretariat was considered to have been promoted, regardless of who they were.

Even if their military rank and position remain unchanged, it's still enough to make others envious.

Because of the special nature of the secretariat, their confidentiality is extremely strict, and they do not easily contact outsiders.

The secretary's office was Mao Renfeng's stronghold, which he had already managed to make as solid as an ironclad block. Could there be a more suitable choice?

Actually, there are.

Ye Shaohong's external device is one of them.

But Ye Shaohong would never admit to this, and even if Mao Renfeng asked, Ye Shaohong had a reason to refuse. After all, his outposts were currently searching for hidden spies.

We can't let outsiders in at this crucial moment.

After listening to Ye Shaohong's explanation, Mao Renfeng's expression changed several times, but he finally agreed reluctantly.

At the same time, he also developed a deep hatred for the Kwantung Army spy.

If it weren't for that spy, Mao Renfeng wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation now.

"You bastard, don't let me catch you."

"If I catch you, I'll make sure you suffer!"
