Chapter 2078 Strong Response 3
The president is not in the country, and he doesn't want too many people to know. Although he cannot doubt the loyalty of the ministers to the country, if something unexpected happens, things will become very passive!
The United States has a strong control over Japan, but Japan's infiltration of the United States cannot be ignored. The Japanese are too rich, and people are not saints. When they see money, many people may not stick to their principles!
Back at the CIA, Woolsey immediately called his confidants and began to arrange tasks!
Without giving his subordinates time to react, Woolsey said bluntly: "We have not yet obtained definite evidence, and the President is on a state visit in Africa; it is impossible to change the itinerary easily."
"We have just consulted with Defense Minister Aspin. The CIA's primary task is to investigate the ins and outs of the matter; find key figures; and arrest them if necessary. The military will cooperate with us!"
"Of course, it is only targeting Toshiba at the moment. This is intelligence obtained by agents in Leningrad at the risk of their lives; I hope you will pay attention to it. No matter which link has problems, it will never be forgiven!"
If it is other countries, the US military may not have a solution; Japan is another matter. After all, the United States has a large number of troops stationed in Japan, and its voice is very large!
The director attaches so much importance to it, and has also received full support from the Minister of Defense; the subordinates naturally dare not have other ideas.
The evidence is conclusive, and no one can save the Japanese; they must be taught a heavy enough lesson, otherwise they may do something out of line next time!
There are many American agents in Japan, and the Japanese are also aware of this; but they can't control it at all. The weaker strength and a series of restrictions; the final result can only be constant compromise!
Before the end of the Pacific War, Okinawan women began to be raped by American soldiers. The following year, Okinawan women gave birth to mixed-race babies.
According to official statistics from Okinawa; from June 1945 when the US military completely "liberated Okinawa" to 1949, there were 76 recorded cases of rape by US soldiers alone, 11 of whom lost their lives after being raped.
After the war; with the continuous expansion of Okinawa bases, there are more and more American soldiers, and similar rape cases and even rape-related murders are increasing day by day.
For half a century; almost every year there will be news about American soldiers raping Okinawan women, or vicious cases of brutal killing and dumping of bodies after rape. But so far, no American soldier involved in the case has ever paid for his life.
Of course; you can also say that the Japanese don't care about Okinawans at all.
After all, there is no Okinawa Prefecture in the world, there has only been the Ryukyu Kingdom since ancient times. Not to mention in Okinawa, even in mainland Japan, the Japanese government cannot control American soldiers.
Originally, according to the Japan-US Security Treaty, all criminal activities of US troops stationed in Japan, including Okinawa, are fully investigated by the US military; the Japanese authorities cannot intervene, let alone have the ability to intervene directly.
The Japanese people are angry, but there is really no way except to protest and put pressure!
The situation has improved in recent years, but the temperament of Americans has not changed much; they still regard themselves as masters here, always with an inexplicable sense of superiority. Even regardless of the occasion, once they get drunk or take too much drugs, they will casually treat other people's decent women as objects of sexual gratification.
If women resist, they will be violently exported at the least, and they will die directly at the most serious.
As for the Americans, as mentioned earlier, because they have the corresponding "extraterritoriality", after the US military commits a crime, the US military bases in Japan will solve it behind closed doors!
Most CIA agents have military service experience; professional counterparts, at least the force value is not weak!
Even if he didn't serve in Japan, his comrades must have served in other countries; therefore, he knew very well what the US troops stationed in Japan were like.
Instinctively believed that Japan was a vassal and younger brother of the United States; it could not and should not have any thoughts of resisting the American big brother!
In order to ensure that everything was foolproof, Director Woolsey sent his confidant Reiss to Japan in person. Although it was not a problem that occurred during his tenure, since he was in the position at the moment; he had to go all out, this was a matter of principle!
Before Reiss left, he had ordered all CIA agents in Japan to take action; large companies like Toshiba are themselves the focus of US surveillance.
As soon as he got off the plane, the urgently sorted information appeared in Reiss's hands!
The head of the CIA in Japan said very seriously: "Because of our previous negligence in work, the Japanese had an opportunity to take advantage of it; I'm very sorry!"
Although it was a bad debt left by the previous person, he had been promoted; many things could not be mentioned again!
Reiss knew the ins and outs of the matter and would never blame him for taking the initiative to take responsibility; instead, he would think he was responsible! The workplace is very particular about propriety, and the rules must not be broken!
Reisz, who was reading the information, smiled and said: "Don't take everything on yourself, the director is very clear about what is right and wrong; complete the next task seriously, don't think about other things!"
Director Woolsey has already expressed his position, which makes the CIA's head in Japan feel much more at ease; no one wants to leave a bad impression on the leader!
The CIA's head in Japan said very seriously: "Based on the analysis of the information currently available, there are three people who are very suspicious!"
"Toshiba Machine President Hayashi Ryuji and CNC machine tool head Tanimura Hiroaki; and the former machine tool trade manager Kumagai Doku who has already resigned."
In ten years, not only did Hayashi Ryuji and Tanimura Hiroaki run a flourishing trading company privately, but their status in Toshiba also continued to rise!
Everything is mutually reinforcing, and it is good to lean on a big tree for shade; Toshiba's brand is definitely loud enough, and basically everyone will give face!
Reiss did not speak, but motioned for the other party to continue. There must be a reason for suspicion, after all, the identities of the three are not simple; especially Hayashi Ryuji has become an important figure in Japan at this moment!
The CIA's head in Japan has a clear mind about his boss's thoughts; there is nothing to hide at this moment, and it must be simple and direct; otherwise it is easy to make mistakes!
The CIA's head in Japan thought for a moment and said, "About ten years ago, Kumagai was the first to resign and set up a trading company."
"He is doing very well. Although I don't know how much money he has made, his wife and children are already living abroad and attending aristocratic schools!"
"The same is true for Hayashi Ryuji and Tanimura Hiroaki. Their families live abroad. Perhaps their salaries are affordable. But buying real estate, especially high-end residences, is seriously mismatched with their income!"
"The other three often get together, and the consumption is not low every time. It is a place that ordinary people dare not approach except for the richest group of people in Japan!"
"I have ordered people to closely monitor the movements of the three people. Whether to arrest them depends on your opinion!"
The United States does have a high status in Japan, but some things cannot be done too much; especially the CIA is still a unit without law enforcement power.
The identities of the three people are not simple, and rash arrests can easily cause resentment among the Japanese. Gathering intelligence is the main business of the CIA, and everything else can be put aside!
This operation is mainly because they are not confident about the Japanese; they suspect that the official is involved, so they can only investigate secretly!
Reiss thought for a moment and said, "Keep a close watch. We still have one week!"
"After one week, the president will return to the White House, and the director will report in person!"
"In addition, I will ask CIA agents from other countries to keep a close watch on the families of Kumagai Doku, Hayashi Ryuji, and Tanimura Hiroaki."
There is only one week, and things must make a breakthrough; otherwise, no one can explain!
When reporting to the president, he still took the photos taken at the Leningrad Naval Base in the Soviet Union; there was no progress on the Japanese side, but it was a serious dereliction of duty!
It is very simple for the CIA to monitor family members; as long as people are still on the earth, they have all the ways. During the Cold War, for national security, it is necessary to grasp the intelligence of the opponent as quickly as possible, and then make accurate predictions!
This made the United States and the Soviet Union generous in the field of intelligence funding, that is, the Soviet economy has been in recession in recent years; the KGB funding is slightly insufficient! But it does not affect the overall strength of the KGB. After all, the richest man Bao directly paid to make up for the shortfall in funding; to a certain extent, it has increased!
As for the funding of the CIA in the United States, it has not decreased by a penny; it is even increasing every year, which is the confidence!
Although time is tight, one week is enough for CIA agents! They don't believe that the three won't reveal any flaws, and they are still very confident about this!
