Espionage: You're tasked with spying, but you'll blow up the Special Higher Police?

Yoshida was completely dumbfounded when he heard this title. What's wrong with this policeman?

"Nonsense! I don't understand what you're saying at all!"

Zhou Hongyi snorted coldly and said, "I'm talking nonsense? We all heard it just now, and you even spoke in your local accent. Still being stubborn? Captain Xu, people like this should be tortured, and tortured severely!"

After Zhou Hongyi finished speaking, he picked up the leather whip from the ground and personally gave the little spy a good beating.

"Pah pah pah~!"

At that moment, Zhou Hongyi's pent-up national hatred and hatred for his country surged forth, and he used all his strength in every thrust, leaving the other three veteran police officers beside him dumbfounded.

Captain Xu was even more puzzled. Didn't you just say that you couldn't use torture? But now you're whipping the whip harder than anyone else.

"Young Master Zhou, wait a minute. Is this the advanced interrogation method you learned from abroad? And what's this about the Major?"

Captain Xu stopped Zhou Hongyi, explaining that if the other party truly had a Special Higher Police identity, they couldn't resort to torture arbitrarily.

Zhou Hongyi stopped what he was doing, panting, and said, "Huff huff huff... Captain Xu, you don't know this, but although this person seems to have no problems on the surface, that's exactly what's going on."

"Wait a minute...you've confused me. 'No problem' means there's a problem? What do you mean?"

Captain Xu and the other two police officers all had the same expression, as if they had lived for more than twenty years and suddenly learned that their father was not their father, but their mother.

"Captain Xu, don't worry. After I analyze it for you, you'll know what's wrong."

As Zhou Hongyi spoke, he wiped the sweat from his brow with his sleeve, looked at the Japanese spy in front of him, and began to analyze.

"Captain Xu, putting everything else aside, I just want to ask one question: if he has no problems, why didn't he dare reveal his Special Higher Police identity even after being beaten like this? Why did I have to tell him? Isn't that strange enough?"

Before Xu Guodong and the others could react, Zhou Hongyi continued, "Secondly, he, Major Yoshida, according to our investigation, has an older brother in Japan. His brother... seems to have joined the Bolsheviks. Although he committed suicide, we have reason to suspect that his death was to cover up someone's identity, and that person is you, Comrade Yoshida!"

"you......!"

A hint of shock flashed deep in the Japanese spy's eyes, but he quickly concealed it and denied it.

"You're talking nonsense! My name is Liu Qing, and I'm just an ordinary office worker. I can speak the language of cherry blossoms because I have relatives there!"

"Relatives? What's their name?"

"Ichiro Hashimoto, my uncle."

I'm asking what your parents' names are!

"My father is Liu Bangyan, and my mother is Qiao Cuili."

What's your aunt's name?

"Liu Linlin!"

What are your aunt and uncle's child's names?

"Hashimoto Meita!"

"..."

Zhou Hongyi bombarded him with a series of questions without pause, and the Japanese spy answered them perfectly.

Zhou Hongyi smiled slightly and said, "You recited the text well, but unfortunately... that's your biggest flaw! How could an ordinary person remember the names of their aunt, uncle, and their children so clearly in this situation? Captain Xu, do you still remember what your aunt's children are called?"

Zhou Hongyi suddenly asked a question, and Xu Guodong, who was standing next to him, was taken aback and subconsciously began to recall.

"My aunt's child is called... um? Wait, I don't even have an aunt!"

"That's right. Even those of us who have no problem think for a while, but he can answer fluently. What does that mean? It means that he prepared all of this information in advance and memorized it! And he still says he has no problem? Comrade Yoshida, have you even abandoned your own family? I wonder if your brother Yoshida Taro, if he knew this in the afterlife, would he come to you in your dreams at night?"

"What?! How do you know his name?!"

How did Zhou Hongyi know? Of course, it was the Japanese spy's own entry above his head that betrayed him.

Currently in the state of "Eye of Insight," Zhou Hongyi can ignore anyone's pretense and, if he so desires, can directly expose the deepest secrets hidden in the other person's heart.

Yoshida's secret, or rather, the thorn deep in his heart, is his older brother, who is also his most painful memory.

"What? You admit it? Back then, your brother committed suicide to protect you. He would never have imagined that you wouldn't even have the courage to admit it today!"

Zhou Hongyi's words struck Yoshida like a heavy hammer, hitting him hard on his weak spot and causing his psychological defenses to collapse instantly.

"My brother... my brother didn't commit suicide, I killed him with my own hands! What do you know... what do you know!? Nonsense, all of it is nonsense! You bastard! Let me go, I'm going to kill you! Kill you~~~~!"

Seeing that the Japanese spy had broken down, Zhou Hongyi took a small step back and pointed at him, saying, "See? See? This is practically an admission. Captain Xu, this is a great achievement. Whether you can get more valuable information from him next depends on you."

Captain Xu took off his hat and ran a hand through his hair, speechless with shock. After a long while, he gave Zhou Hongyi a thumbs up.

"Wang Shun, Ye Kaicheng, bring this cunning Red Party member over here. I want him to taste the tiger bench!"

"You can't touch me! Let me go! I'm a Special Higher Police Major, and I infiltrated the prison in disguise to get close to a Red Party liaison! You can ask Colonel Kondo!"

Xu Guodong is now full of energy, and no matter what the Japanese spy says after introducing himself, he won't believe it.

"Oh dear~ Keep making things up. Now that we've exposed your identity, you're admitting you were in disguise? Where were you before? Tell me! What was your mission this time? Who was your superior? Tell me!"

"Ugh~~~~~~ You...you bunch of idiots~~~~!"

Unable to defend himself, the spy fainted from the pain amidst desperate screams.

"Damn it, she's already fainted?"

Captain Xu smacked the ground, turned to Zhou Hongyi, and asked, "Young Master Zhou, what about these two? Do they have any problems?"

Zhou Hongyi breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the two prisoners who were staring in disbelief, and suddenly put on a smiling face.

"No problem, I know him. It's really a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple. Brother Feng Lie, I'm sorry to offend you."

Zhou Hongyi looked at the bearded man whose profile read "Captain of the Military Intelligence Bureau Special Operations Team" and greeted him with clasped hands.

"you......"

The Kuomintang agent licked his lips, unsure of Zhou Hongyi's intentions, and dared not strike up a conversation.

"Brother Fenglie, have you forgotten? I am Zhou Hongyi. Ding Mocun is my brother-in-law. We've even played mahjong and drunk together."

The bearded prisoner's eyes darted around. Although he didn't know why Zhou Hongyi was covering for him, he still went along with it.

"Oh~~~~ I remember now, it's Brother Hongyi. I never expected that we would meet again in such a state... I'm ashamed."

"Brother Feng Lie, you've suffered. It was our dereliction of duty to arrest you. Captain Xu, this is an old acquaintance of our 76th Division, who has provided us with a lot of intelligence... a hidden informant."

Zhou Hongyi uttered the last two words very softly, so that only he and Xu Guodong could hear them.

"Oh? Young Master Zhou knows them? That makes things easier. Quick, release them!"

Without hesitation, Xu Guodong immediately instructed Wang Shun to untie the bearded man and helped him out.

When Zhou Hongyi's gaze fell on the last prisoner, he did not rush to say what he wanted to say, but instead looked him up and down.

"Captain Xu, based on the current intelligence, there seems to be nothing wrong with this person, but we still can't be careless. Let's keep him here for another night and let me test him. If there's really no problem, we can release him tomorrow."

"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Young Master Zhou."

Xu Guodong now greatly admires Zhou Hongyi, thinking that those who have returned from abroad are indeed different. With just a few words, they have exposed such deeply hidden Red Party members, and all the credit goes to him. Why not curry favor with him? Perhaps even more credit awaits him in the future.
