Chapter 1011 Seal and Pocket Watch

"This is the cabinet, are you sure?" Wen Zishan asked the waiter at "Dahua Bath" seriously.

"Sir, I'm sure that Boss Gu has a long-term private room with us. He comes here every day." The guy said cautiously.

"Do you send people in to clean this place every day?" Wen Zishan asked as the doorman came in and took a look at the furnishings in the private room. It was very clean.

"Yes, every time after Boss Gu leaves, he will arrange for people to go in to clean and ventilate the place." The boy replied.

"Is it a specialist?"

"Yes, a dedicated person. Boss Gu's favorite is a guy named Chun Sheng. He is careful and clean. He is designated to clean the private rooms and no one else is allowed to do it."

"Chunsheng, where is this person?"

"It's not work time yet, I should still be at home." The waiter replied cautiously. The bathhouse doesn't open that early. This is not the big Shanghai. People who come to take a bath basically have to wait until ten o'clock in the morning. .

"Tell my men the address. If they are wrong, you may end up in jail." Wen Zishan snorted coldly.

"Yes, yes, you must tell the truth." The boy was so frightened that sweat broke out from his forehead, "Sir, please..."

The private room is not large, with a soft bed, a tea tray and some leisure utensils, and a wardrobe. It looks like the material is made of bamboo.

This is a bathhouse, and the humidity itself is heavy, and the bamboo is not easy to rot.

"Open the curtains!" The room was a little dark.

Once the curtains are opened, the room becomes much brighter.

There weren't many places to hide things in such a big place. After a little searching, I found a locked box in the soft drawer.

I took the brass key and inserted it in. It was just right.

Twist away.

There was a click.

The box is opened.

At first glance, there was a yellow stone seal inside.

Wen Zishan stretched out his hand and took it out. The seal was in small seal script, but the name on the letter was not Gu Shouwen's name, but the four characters "Yishui Jushi".

This is obviously a person's name.

In addition, there is a pawn ticket underneath the seal. It is a pawn ticket issued by a pawnshop called "Sanhe". It is a silver pocket watch. It is agreed that the person who holds the seal will redeem it in person.

Thirty oceans were used as a pocket watch, and this pocket watch must have something inside it.

"Take back the Chun Sheng who cleaned the private room and the owner of the bathhouse for questioning, and disperse the others." Wen Zishan even locked the box and took away everything.

According to the address marked on the pawn ticket, Wen Zishan found the pawn shop called "Sanhe". It was early in the morning and the pawn shop had just opened. The servants in the shop had not yet arrived. There was only a boy busy in the lobby. .

"Where's the shopkeeper?"

"Hello sir, the shopkeeper will be here soon. Do you have anything?"

"Redemption."

Early in the morning, people come to redeem their pawns. This is not a bad thing for a pawn shop. Whether it is pawning something or redeeming a pawn, the pawn shop makes money and is a business.

The waiter urged, and the shopkeeper, Cai Shi Shiran, came out from behind with a water pipe. Seeing that Wen Zishan was dressed in a suit and looked dignified, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This gentleman is very polite. I don't know if I can help you." ?”

"Redemption!" Wen Zishan didn't have time to tell the other party, so he directly placed the pawn ticket he got from the box in front of the other party.

"Although this is a living thing, according to the rules, we have to test this..."

Before the word "seal" came out of his mouth, Wen Zishan took out the seal and placed it in front of the other party, along with a heavy ocean letter.

"Now that we have everything, let's check it out." The shopkeeper waved his hand, and the waiter brought a piece of white paper and a piece of Indonesia!

I took the seal, used Indonesian, and stamped it on the white paper.

After comparing the seal with the seal left in the pawn shop, the shopkeeper went to the warehouse to search for a while, took out a palm-sized box, and handed it to Wen Zishan: "Sir, this is what you want to redeem. Please take a look, after exiting this door, it has nothing to do with the shop."

Wen Zishan glanced at the other person, opened the box, and saw a pocket watch lying inside. He reached out and took it out. When he opened it, the watch was still moving, and the time matched the current time.

"I actually like this pocket watch very much. I have to wind it up every day and send it for oiling and maintenance regularly. Unfortunately, the gentleman refused to sell it to me and insisted on selling it to me. He said that he would have money at any time. Come and get it at any time, there's nothing I can do." The shopkeeper said with a lingering glance.

"I've got my money and goods, let's say goodbye!" Wen Zishan didn't want to stay for a moment longer. Now that he had the things in hand, he naturally had to go back and resume his life. Luo Yao was still waiting for him.

…

Wen Zishan's return caused Luo Yao to suspend Gu Shouwen's interrogation.

After the report, Wen Zishan handed the silver pocket watch redeemed from "Sanhe" to Luo Yao's hands, as well as the seal.

The pocket watch is indeed very beautiful. No wonder the pawnshop owner likes it so much and wants to stay.

But this pocket watch doesn't seem to have any secrets worth hiding. Is it a token? This is the only possibility.

This pocket watch went into a pawn shop. During that period, although the pawn shop could not sell it or damage it, it still had the right to use it.

Moreover, the shopkeeper also said that he winds up the pocket watch every day and sends it for maintenance. Maintenance usually requires taking it apart.

Even if there were any secrets hidden inside, they would have been discovered long ago.

Therefore, the secret is not the pocket watch itself, but the special meaning that this pocket watch may represent. If it is a token, it can be completely explained.

As for this Tianhuang seal, it is the seal to redeem the pocket watch, and it seems to have only this function.

Tianhuang stones are valuable for collection, but the one Luo Yao is holding now doesn't look very precious.

Value is average.

"Yishui Jushi", Luo Yao had never heard of this person.

"Have you all heard of it?"

"No." Luo Yao asked, and everyone shook their heads. Obviously, no one knew or had even heard of it.

"It seems that this guy Hase Shoufumi is very difficult to deal with, and there won't be any results for a while!" Luo Yao sighed.

I am not omnipotent. It would be good to be able to capture the secretive spy organization lurking in the mountain city. But if I think too much, I will be a little too far away.

"Call Qi Zhibin and ask him to come over." Luo Yao ordered.

"Eldest brother has taken a liking to Jufeng Restaurant?"

"Well, it's such a good place. It's better to take advantage of others than to take advantage of us. This is a confiscated spy asset. After returning to the government, it must not be just idle. It must be sold to the outside world. We paid the full amount according to the procedures. This is okay. Problem?"

"Of course, no one can tell what's wrong with it." Wen Zishan nodded and paid for it according to the rules. There was nothing wrong with it.

Taking it directly by force would be a bit too much.

"Then seal it up, digest it internally, and tell Sixth Brother." Luo Yao ordered, "I'm going back first. I'll take this pocket watch and seal back to study and write you a note."

"OK."

Luo Yao originally wanted to pry open Hase Shouwen's mouth within ten hours, then force him to cooperate with him, and then put him back and let him work as a double agent.

But now the actual situation does not allow it. This guy has a lot of back-ups and it is difficult to break through in a short time. There is no other way but to settle for the next best thing.

Anyway, he has already captured this line, so he will just examine it slowly. It is also a good thing to cut off one of the Japanese intelligence channels in the mountain city.

Moreover, it also depends on the actions on the Huangjiaoya side and whether the radio station Changgu Shouwen communicates with the outside world is under control.

Even if Hase Shoufumi cooperates, if the radio station and code book are mastered, it can still play a certain role.

Therefore, he had to go back to Huangjiaoya to check the specific situation.

After not sleeping all night, Luo Yao planned to take a nap in the car on the way back so that he could at least regain some energy when he got home.

It was already noon when they arrived at Huangjiaoya. Luo Yao asked Yang Fan to drive directly to Huangjiaoya Police Station.

The arrest last night went smoothly, he already knew this, but the outcome of the interrogation was not yet clear.

Over at the Inspection Office, Luo Yao watched and used unconventional methods, so he had not yet used the eighteen kinds of torture from the military commander.

It's different here. Those caught are used directly.

Boss Tong of the "Fenggu" wine shop has changed his mind and turned into a witness. The guy who delivered the wine came back at night and was knocked unconscious by Boss Tong who drugged his meal. He was sent directly to the branch. When he woke up, He was already hung on the torture rack.

Gu Jingjing from Lijing Photo Studio had her mouth covered and pulled out of bed while she was sleeping, and then cuffed her.

A lot of evidence of Gu Jingjing's espionage activities was found from his home, including professionally modified cameras, film rolls, developed films, etc.

Of course, the most important thing is a small radio station.

"This guy is Japanese. There are calluses visible on the inside of his big toe, which are formed by wearing wooden shoes for many years." Kan Yutang introduced.

"Besides the physical characteristics, is there no other evidence?" Luo Yao asked.

"A watch was found from his home. It is a Japanese product and has been worn for many years." Kan Yutang said, "No one has seen him wearing it, but the watch is well maintained and the time is very accurate."

"It can be considered as supporting evidence." Luo Yao nodded, "Did he confess?"

"Not yet. No matter how we use torture or bring out the evidence found from his home, he just won't admit it or speak."

"Spies like this who can be sent out to perform latent missions have undergone certain training and will not admit their identities easily. They will only wake up after experiencing the pain." Luo Yao said.

"Well, there is no need to be merciful to these spies. If you don't recruit them, then beat them until they confess." Kan Yutang said.

"Okay, then I will go back to the station first. If there is any news, please inform me immediately." Luo Yao also knew that staying by himself would not be of any use. He might as well wait for news. There is also a lot of things waiting for him in the military technical room. Busy with work.

Kan Yutang wanted to stay with Luo Yao for dinner, but he declined. It was only a few steps from the military technical room, so it was very simple for him to go back and eat.
