Chapter 955 Silenced

"A thousand-year injustice, just one leaf in the south of the Yangtze River..."

Luo Yao sighed and put down the "Xinhua Daily" in his hand. For ordinary people who read this kind of newspaper, they would suffer if they were accused.

But when he is in his position, there is no problem even if he orders one every day.

What's more, the military technical room orders a large number of newspapers every day, especially newspapers like "Xinhua Daily".

This is needed to decipher the encrypted message.

To decipher encrypted messages, you naturally have to study the words and usage habits of the opponent you want to decipher, as well as the format and so on.

This is the reason why to decipher Japan’s secret diplomatic cables, experts who understand Japanese are needed. In particular, they not only speak Japanese, but also understand Japanese customs and the use of words in official documents. Otherwise, how can you understand what is written in other people’s cables? What is it?

New terms in newspapers are naturally something that code breakers need to study. Otherwise, if someone uses them in a message and you don’t know what they mean, how can you decipher them?

It's been two days since the old man came back. Generally speaking, he's quite used to it. He lived in Jinling in the past and had a mountain with his back to the mountains. The climate is similar to that of a mountain city.

It's just that the fog here is relatively heavy in winter, and the clouds and mountains are shrouded in fog. It's rare to have sunny days. This kind of climate wonder can only be found in mountain cities.

Luo Yao went to the Army General Hospital to see Gong Hui at noon, and then talked to the old man when he came back from get off work in the evening.

The person next to him was replaced by Yang Fan.

However, the day after this guy came back, he asked for leave to go find Ai Fei. When he came back, he was a little tired. If I asked him what happened, he wouldn't tell me.

Luo Yao didn't ask further. Everyone has their own secrets. When he wants to say it, he will naturally tell it.

After a series of turbulences a year ago, the military technical room finally calmed down, except for Gong Hui who was hospitalized.

The military technical room has filled all the empty positions.

Mao Zongxiang seems to have become the acting director, but in fact it is no different from the past. Of course, his right to speak must be much stronger than before.

Huo Tian took up the position. Although he was the deputy director, in terms of technology, he became the general person in charge, taking charge of the deciphering of Japanese secret codes.

Chi An acts as a group leader.

The second group is still continuing its work of deciphering the CCP's secret codes, but after the incident in southern Anhui, this work came to a standstill.

They made corresponding progress only after obtaining the internal information of the New Fourth Army, even though they deciphered the secret code.

But now everyone has invalidated this set of secret codes for contact, which means they are starting from scratch.

Jiang Shaoying took back all the people brought from the military command. They stayed in the military technical room and had nothing to do. They had to look at other people's faces.

Although the people Wei Daming brought over from the telecommunications office did not leave, they spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, doing nothing all day long.

However, the original work of the second group has been disrupted. Many of the original plans and work have been stopped and now need to be restarted, and manpower allocation needs to be redone.

The relationship between Wei Daming and Mao Zongxiang does not seem to be that good. No one can tell clearly what the relationship between the two is now.

…

When Luo Yao came home from get off work in the evening, he found that Wen Zishan had arrived. He looked very tired and his eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that his trip to Ba County was not going well.

In the study room.

"Brother, we were late, Qi Bin disappeared, and the other three were silenced." Wen Zishan reported bitterly.

Luo Yao was actually mentally prepared for this. An accident was normal, but it would be abnormal if these four people could be caught.

"Tell me more about it?"

"Before going to Ba County, I first called Wu Dehou, the director of the Ba County Inspection Office, and asked him to help me find the whereabouts of four people from Qi Bin, focusing on the three people from Jia Gui. They are locals of Ba County, and their families and relatives are all It was easier to find in , but when we arrived, Jia Gui was already dead, and his family was about to bury him. After we went there, we checked Jia Gui’s body and found that his abdomen was bloated like a drum. It was obviously not a natural death. , according to his family members, he died of intestinal carbuncle."

"Was there an autopsy?"

"The Jia family and the villagers refused to give in, saying that if everyone is dead, no matter how serious the sin is, they must be buried in peace." Wen Zishan said, "The local clan is very powerful, and we don't dare to force it, but with my From experience, I have never heard of people suffering from intestinal carbuncle having a distended belly like a drum.”

"Where are Li Wanchuan and Yuan Yutian?"

"The second person we found was Li Wanchuan. His family was relatively poor. He had an old mother and a younger sister. He loved gambling and stayed away from home all day long. He even had the experience of mortgaging his younger sister. He accidentally fell into a manure pit and waited. When he was discovered in the morning, he had already passed away. His family had long since ignored him, so he was buried hastily."

"We went to Li Wanchuan's graveyard and dug up the body. After identification, it was indeed him. Apart from old injuries, no gunshot wounds were found on his body. The cause of death was initially determined to be drowning."

"Heh, interesting."

"Is there another person, Yuan Yutian?"

"Yuan Yutian died of illness. He was said to have tuberculosis. His family was afraid of the infection, so he was cremated the next day." Wen Zishan said.

"Tuberculosis, could it be that Yuan Yutian had lung disease in the past?"

"No, the Yuan family said that Yuan Yutian was sent back by someone. When he was sent back, he was already dying and coughing up blood. The person who sent him was confirmed by our comparison to be the missing Qi Bin." Wenzi. Good way.

"It seems that someone doesn't want us to find evidence." Luo Yao said, "One disappeared and three died under strange circumstances. The missing person seems to be the one who murdered and silenced him. In this way, there will be no evidence of death."

"Yes, Yuan Yutian should be the killer who was injured by Sister Hui. He suffered a gunshot wound and was taken back to Ba County by Qi Bin and the others. He then pretended to have tuberculosis. The ignorant villagers must have believed Qi Bin. According to Bin’s theory, tuberculosis is an infectious disease, and once this person dies, cremation will be a matter of course, and there will be no evidence whatsoever.”

"Have you never checked the ashes?"

"Of course, but they should have processed it and removed the warhead. Yuan Yutian was not found in the cremated ashes." Wen Zishan said.

"This Qi Bin is either hiding, or he was silenced like the three others. We haven't found him yet," Luo Yao said.

"Yes, brother, your judgment is the same as ours, but we tend to think that he is hiding. Jia Gui, Li Wanchuan, and Yuan Yutian were all the last people with him, Qi Bin, the night before Li Wanchuan died. He was gambling with Qi Bin in the casino. Someone saw him. Jia Gui suffered from intestinal carbuncle. He happened to be at the scene and helped to find the doctor, but before the doctor arrived, he died. The deaths of these three people, It's all related to him." Wen Zishan said.

"It seems that to unravel this mystery, we have to start with Qi Bin." Luo Yao nodded, "Whether he is dead or alive, we must find this person."

"I have issued a wanted order in Ba County. As long as he is still in Ba County, he will be discovered as soon as his whereabouts are exposed." Wen Zishan said, "But it is too difficult to find a person in Ba County. This Qi Bin Although he is not a local, he knows many people there and he can speak the local dialect. If he hides, it will be difficult for us to find him."

"If you can't find Qi Bin, go find Qi Yaorong." Luo Yaorong said, "Since Xiaohui has recognized Jia Gui, this is a witness. With this, he can go to Qi Yaorong to ask for someone. If he can't hand over the person, Then he is the mastermind behind Xiaohui’s assassination.”

"Do you really come directly to your door?"

"Well, put Qi Yaorong in prison. Qi Bin is his subordinate and a relative. If he wants to clear his grievances, he must cooperate with us to find Qi Bin. If we can't find him, we will have to identify him as the instigator behind the scenes." Luo Yao said.

"Yes, brother." Wen Zishan nodded.

…

If the man behind the scenes was really Qi Yaorong, he had brought it upon himself and no one else should be blamed. However, Luo Yao's intuition told him that although Qi Yaorong was arrogant, he was not brainless enough to let his men do such a thing.

But this matter has nothing to do with his men, and he must be responsible.

There should be no injustice in arresting him.

…

"Deputy Director Luo, there is a British man who calls himself Berry." When he went to work the next day, his secretary Xiao Wu reported that Luo Yao would not rush to find the British people.

They have to find it themselves.

This time they are the ones asking for cooperation. This is like asking for a marriage. The woman cannot be rushed to marry her daughter to the man.

The British are not in a hurry. Why should they be in a hurry? Anyway, when Mao Zongxiang urges him, he always puts off the situation.

The arrogant British need to be cool.

The British now urgently need China's intelligence cooperation, especially in deciphering Japanese secret codes. China has unique advantages.

"Come in."

"Major Berry, I am Luo Yao."

"Mr. Luo, regarding the cooperation between the British Empire and your country's intelligence department, I would like to make an appointment to talk to you?" Although Major Berry was very polite, his tone was still full of Anglo-Saxon arrogance.

"Okay, Major Berry, wait a moment, let me check my time schedule." Luo Yao pretended, "Tomorrow afternoon, I have time, Major Berry, please pick a place, preferably in the city, it's too far Otherwise, it would be a waste of time to go back and forth.”

"Then at two o'clock in the afternoon, the coffee shop on the second floor of the Queen Hotel?"

"No problem, I will be there on time. I hope Major Berry will be on time too. I am quite punctual, and I hope Major you are also punctual." After Luo Yao finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

…

"Berry, Luo is not an easy person to deal with. I have dealt with him many times. He understands us better than many Chinese people. Moreover, he is very cunning and can do business better than the Jews." The deputy attaché of the embassy who is about to be transferred Turner came over with a glass of red wine and gave a piece of advice to Berry, who replaced him.

"Hmm, he speaks good English, very fluently." Berry shrugged his shoulders and said, obviously not paying attention to his ex's reminder.

"You'd better be careful tomorrow, he is a master negotiator." Turner reminded.

"Don't worry, brother, I won't let the damn Chinese monkey take advantage." Berry waved his fist confidently.

Turner shook his head. People who have never experienced a severe beating are so confident.
