Chapter 958 Fishing

 “Cough cough cough.”

 Dong Zhengguo coughed violently.

He waved his hand towards Su Chende, indicating that he was fine and was just choked by the smoke.

“You’ve recovered from the cold, so don’t smoke.” Su Chende said.

“I’m used to it,” Dong Zhengguo said. “I don’t feel strong until I take two puffs.”

Su Chende handed the telescope to Dong Zhengguo, "My eyes are tired, please help me focus."

Dong Zhengguo took over the telescope and observed it. Cheng Qianfan, who appeared in the camera, was shaking his head, and the expression on his face began to become serious. To be precise, it was not just serious, but also a bit angry and impatient.

"Director, there is nothing unusual." Dong Zhengguo said. He tilted his head and looked at Su Chende, "Cheng Qianfan is very close to the Japanese, and he is also known to be hostile to red in the patrol room."

As he spoke, he slapped his mouth, "How can such a person have anything to do with the Red Party?"

“It’s basically a matter of whether there are jujubes or not.” Su Chende chuckled, “Besides, I didn’t say I suspected he was a red party member.”

 “That person…” Dong Zhengguo said in astonishment.

"He is just a suspicion, but there is no evidence. He is suspected of biting out of resentment." Su Chende shook his head and glanced in the direction of the reception room, "As you said, there is a possibility that Cheng Qianfan is a Red Party member. Extremely low, then, if this person really has a problem, I am more inclined to think that this person has something to do with Chongqing."

Dong Zhengguo had an inexplicable look in his eyes, "Yes, Cheng Wenzao and his wife were at the tomb in Jiangshan. The one in Chongqing originally sent people to send wreaths and elegiac couplets. Cheng Guzhi is also somewhat famous within the Kuomintang."

 He shook his head, "With such a family background, Cheng Qianfan has no connection with the government."

 “I don’t believe it,” he said.

Su Chende does not fully agree with Dong Zhengguo’s reasons.

 It is not surprising that Cheng Qianfan has a good family background within the Kuomintang and has some involvement with the Kuomintang.

Not to mention being involved, Mr. Wang was previously the vice president of the Kuomintang and the president of the Executive Yuan. Zhou Liang, Chen Nanhai, Chu Mingyu and others were all important members of the party and state. Now they have parted ways with Chongqing.

  What is important is whether Cheng Qianfan’s political stance is on the side of Chongqing or Mr. Wang.

 …

"Assign someone to keep an eye on it." Su Chende ordered Dong Zhengguo. "As long as someone is reading the newspaper, someone must be in place." Su Chende ordered.

“Understood.” Dong Zhengguo said respectfully.

Su Chende glanced at Dong Zhengguo. Although he was satisfied with Dong Zhengguo's respectful attitude on the surface, in fact, Su Chende was always vigilant in his heart.

He naturally knew what he had done to Feng Man. The hatred for killing his father and taking away his wife was nothing greater than this.

 The question now is, did Feng Man inform Dong Zhengguo of those things?

　　should be absent.

Su Chende secretly judged:

 Dong Zhengguo's respectful attitude towards him was sincere.

His perception is keen. If Dong Zhengguo really hates him, then this hatred can even be said to be murderous intent—

 This cannot be completely concealed.

 …

 “Cheng Qianfan changed another newspaper.” Dong Zhengguo handed the binoculars to Su Chende.

Su Chende took the telescope.

“It should be China-US Daily.” Dong Zhengguo said from the sidelines.

The room where Cheng Qianfan is located is usually a lounge or a reading room. The newspapers and magazines inside can be accessed by agents from the Secret Service Headquarters. When guests come, it can also be used as a temporary reception room.

 Add these banned newspapers and magazines to the newspaper racks. This was Su Chende’s suggestion to Dingmutun.

The purpose is to secretly observe the Zhengzhi tendencies of the personnel at the secret service headquarters through this seemingly random method of 'fishing', and to secretly investigate whether internal personnel have any clues about collaborating with the enemy.

These banned newspapers and magazines are not only from the Red Party, but also from Chongqing.

Feng Man seemed to have picked up a few newspapers and put them on the table. In fact, the order of placing these newspapers was very particular. Cheng Qianfan picked up the top one. They knew that the newspaper was from the Red Party. The secretly controlled "Daily Translation".

 Cheng Qianfan is holding the "China-US Daily" in his hands now, which is a newspaper controlled by Chongqing.

 At the beginning of May, China-US Daily published the full text of Chang Kaishen’s speech in Chongqing to implement nationwide mobilization.

ˆ Newspapers such as "News" and "Shenbao" also carried out summary reports.

 The Concession Industry Bureau regarded this as a Zheng Zhi propaganda activity that must be banned, and immediately warned these newspapers not to continue to publish Chang Kaishen’s speech and related content.

After that, four newspapers, "China-US Daily", "Translator", "Wenhui Po" and "Da Mei Bao", published Chang Kaishen's speech at the production meeting, saying that economic construction should be stepped up and military production should be advanced at the same time. Complete the task of resisting the war and building the nation.

 Wen Wei Po and Translator were ordered to suspend publication for two weeks as a result.

 The registration certificates of "Da Mei Daily" and "China American Daily" were revoked.

This 'reception room' had just been renovated a few days ago, and Cheng Qianfan was the first real guest that the reception room welcomed.

 Su Chende learned that Cheng Qianfan was visiting and Li Cuiqun had not returned yet, so he found Dong Zhengguo and asked him to command Feng Man to set up this trap.

 …

“Where is Cheng Qianfan?” Li Cuiqun climbed up the stairs and asked Tang Kanlao who came up to greet him.

“Miss Feng arranged for Vice President Cheng to stay in the A3 reception room.” Tang Kanlao said in a low voice.

“Reception room A3...” Li Cuiqun frowned slightly, “What are you doing?”

Li Cuiqun naturally knew that Su Chende had built this "fishing" reading room.

Su Chende had to ask him for instructions first if he wanted to do this.

 This is a rather insidious trick.

Li Cuiqun naturally agreed, but what made him dissatisfied was that he later learned that this person had asked Dingmutun for instructions on the matter before reporting to him.

Ding Mutun is the director of the secret service headquarters. Su Chende asked Ding Mutun for instructions first. This seems to be okay, but in Li Cuiqun's view, this is a big mistake!

“How is the street cleaning going?” Li Cuiqun asked.

"It is being carried out intensively and orderly." Tang Kanglao said, "Some suspicious persons have been arrested and are being interrogated on an expedited basis."

 Previously, Su Chende’s surrender to the secret service headquarters was leaked in a short period of time.

This time, the secret service headquarters’ arrest of Shanghai Station Lu Xingge was even more leaked, and there was a mistake. To put it bluntly, it was even comparable to being caught in an ambush by Chongqing.

This made Li Cuiqun and Ding Mutun furious, and they became even more suspicious of spies inside the secret service headquarters.

In addition, Hu Jie, former Assistant to the Director of the Suhu District of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, who recently joined the Secret Service Headquarters, also put forward valuable suggestions:

The streets near Jisi Feier Road must also be checked to ensure that there are no eyes and ears from the Red Party and Chongqing parties snooping.

Dingmu Tun and Li Cuiqun heard this and thought deeply.

 In this case, the secret service headquarters suddenly began to sweep the streets.

“You arrested the shopkeeper of Fangyun Daily Grocery Store?” Li Cuiqun stopped and asked suddenly.
