Chapter 244 Unexpected Discovery
Chapter 244 Unexpected Discovery
Wada Suozi's voice suddenly paused, and then she said, "Isn't it the underground party member who was arrested before?"
Jiang Shiyuan was shocked when he heard this, but he remained calm on the surface.
Did Yunko Minamizō successfully arrest underground party members under the leadership of the First Section's Operations Department?
She was totally unaware of this...
This might be the suspect they caught during their secret search for Comrade "Ling Jueding" in various concessions.
If that is the case, the addresses of the suspected underground party contact points in the "Thorn" plan might have been given by this person.
Jiang Shiyuan couldn't help pretending to be puzzled and asked, "Ms. Suizi, how do you know he is an underground party member?"
Wada Hoko's face changed slightly, "I... I just heard Director Yamaguchi mention it..."
"Really?" Jiang Shiyuan smiled faintly, "But why do I feel that the disappearance of Section Chief Nan Zao is related to this person?"
Wada Hoko blinked, "Why do you say that?"
"Ms. Suizi, think about it," Jiang Shiyuan said calmly, "Not long after this man was arrested, Section Chief Nanzo disappeared."
"Don't you think this is too much of a coincidence?"
"Could it be..." Wada Hoko speculated in a low voice: "Did someone leak the information?"
"I can't think of any other explanation except this one."
Jiang Shiyuan sighed softly, "I just don't know who the person who leaked the information is..."
Wada Hoko was silent. She looked down at the documents in her hands, and her fingers under the folder trembled slightly.
Jiang Shiyuan secretly observed her reaction and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She cleverly directed Wada Hoko's suspicion in another direction and temporarily resolved her own crisis.
But this was just a temporary measure, and Wada Hoko did not completely believe her.
"Ms. Suizi," Jiang Shiyuan broke the silence, "Let's continue looking for files, maybe we can find more clues."
"Hmm..." Wada Hoko responded absentmindedly and continued to look through the documents.
The atmosphere in the office suddenly became extremely solemn.
At this time, Takahashi Yui came over.
He looked at Jiang Shiyuan, then at Wada Suozi, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Takahashi Yui walked to the desk and asked the two if they had any important discoveries.
The two of them told their previous guesses together, and Takahashi Yui nodded and said, "Well, this is an idea. We can go to the interrogation room to verify it later."
"By the way, I just spoke to Mr. Doihara on the phone."
"He said that he did not issue any temporary tasks to Section Chief Nanzo yesterday."
"And we must find out the reason for Section Chief Nanzō's disappearance. We must find him alive or dead!"
"You two should continue. Be sure to check carefully and don't miss any clues."
"Hi!" Jiang Shiyuan and Wada Hoko responded in unison.
After he said that, he went to the Operations Department of Section 1 to take charge of the overall situation.
Jiang Shiyuan forced himself to concentrate and continued to look through the documents.
Suddenly, her eyes fell on an incomplete document.
This document also seems to be about the "Thorn" plan.
But only a part of it, the rest should be with you.
Jiang Shiyuan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she quickly hid the document and covered it with other documents.
Wada Hoko was busy looking through other documents and didn't notice her unusual behavior.
As night falls, the lights in the office become exceptionally dim, and the writing on the documents becomes blurred.
At this time, Wada Hoko patted her shoulder and said, "Ms. Ayako, it's getting late. Let's go back first."
"Okay." Jiang Shiyuan nodded, and helped her organize the documents and put them back in their original place.
Then, the two of them left Minamizō Yunko's office one after the other.
After going out, Jiang Shiyuan went straight to the bathroom on the third floor.
She locked the cubicle door, sat on the toilet, and pulled the torn document out of her trouser pocket.
She secretly slipped this in when Wada Hoko went out to make tea.
With the dim light in the bathroom, Jiang Shiyuan carefully studied the contents of the document.
The document recorded an unfamiliar location, which appeared to be an abandoned warehouse.
Jiang Shiyuan frowned. What does this location have to do with the entire "Thorn" plan?
She committed the information on the document to memory, then tore up the paper and flushed it down the toilet.
Today's search for clues about Minamijō Yunko's disappearance was fruitless, so Takahashi Yui asked her to go home after get off work and continue tomorrow.
After Jiang Shiyuan returned to the Wanguo Apartment, he knocked on Fang Lansheng's door.
Then he borrowed his home phone and reported to Gu Fangxun the unexpected discovery made in the Special High Section today.
Gu Fangxun said that she would immediately report and verify the matter to the organization.
Let’s see whether the person secretly arrested by the Special High Section is a real underground party comrade.

The next morning, Jiang Shiyuan came to the Special High Section in Shanghai as usual and started his day's work.
There was no news from Minamizō Yunko the whole day, and everyone in the class became increasingly anxious.
At the instruction of Koji Doihara, Takahashi Yui temporarily took over the position of head of Section 1 and was extremely busy.
During lunch break, Jiang Shiyuan came to the cafeteria alone.
She found a corner and sat down, eating absentmindedly.
At this time, Takahashi Yui came over and sat down opposite her.
He asked softly, "Ayako, have you not had enough rest recently?"
"Why do you seem listless these two days?"
"You Yi, I'm fine, don't worry..."
Jiang Shiyuan smiled and said, "It's just that the intensity of work these past two days has been a bit high, and I'm a little worried about the safety of Senior Sister Yunzi."
Takahashi Yui took the grilled eel from his plate and comforted her: "Ayako, you are always so kind and willing to think about others."
"You don't have to feel any psychological burden. I'm here to support the Special High Section stationed in Shanghai. There won't be any chaos."
"Eat more, the sauce on this grilled eel is pretty good!"
Jiang Shiyuan nodded and responded obediently: "Youyi, thank you, it's great to have you."
After lunch break, Jiang Shiyuan came to Minamizō Yunko's office as usual.
She found that Hoko Wada was looking through some old documents in a filing cabinet.
"Miss Suizi, what are you looking for?" Jiang Shiyuan asked with a puzzled look, holding a teacup.
"Oh, nothing," Wada Hoko looked up at her.
"I just want to see if I can find some clues about the underground party member."
Jiang Shiyuan's heart moved, and he suggested: "Ms. Suizi, I think we should focus on other aspects."
"For example, before Section Chief Nanzo disappeared, did he come into contact with any suspicious people?"
"Suspicious person?" Wada Hoko frowned. "Who are you referring to?"
"I don't know either," Jiang Shiyuan shook his head, "but we can look for some clues from Section Chief Nan Zao's recent action records."
"Well, you have a point."
Wada Hoko nodded, "Then let's check it out together."
So, the two of them began to look through the documents again, looking for records of Minamizō Yunko's actions before she disappeared.
Jiang Shiyuan was flipping through the documents while secretly observing Wada Suoko's reaction.
She noticed that Wada Hoko would glance at her from time to time, as if observing her expression.
Jiang Shiyuan realized that He Tiansuozi's suspicion of her had not been eliminated...
