Espionage: I can read memory information

Chapter 8, Action Group 1

The next day, Special Service Department, Operations Section.

Lin Jiang, as the leader of the first group of the Action Section, has his own office.

He was sitting in his office, frowning as he looked at the desk, on which lay the intelligence report he had obtained from the train the day before.

"Knock knock knock"

"Come in."

Shen Yi entered the room, saluted Lin Jiang, and said, "Your subordinate, Shen Yi, has come to report for duty!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Jiang quickly got up and walked towards Shen Yi.

"Haha, Brother Shen, you've arrived."

Lin Jiang smiled and led Shen Yi to a sofa. "I was so happy when the section chief told me you were coming to join our team. It's great that you can come."

Lin Jiang's happiness was genuine; Shen Yi's performance on the train yesterday was outstanding, far surpassing that of his own men.

Of course, he was somewhat surprised that Shen Yi had become the acting deputy leader of the group, but he understood when he thought about the relationship between Shen Yi and Dai Chunfeng.

"Team leader..."

"Don't call me team leader, we're brothers, no need for formalities. Just call me Brother Lin," Lin Jiang quickly said.

"Okay, Brother Lin," Shen Yi said with a smile.

"Haha, that's more like it."

"Brother Shen, you've come at the right time. Quickly, help me take a look at this intelligence report."

After saying that, Lin Jiang handed the intelligence to Shen Yi.

Shen Yi frowned as he looked at the garbled intelligence in his hand.

This intelligence document contains only strings of numbers, which are clearly ciphertext. The only way to crack it is to find the codebook.

"Brother Lin, we might need to find the codebook to know the contents of this intelligence," Shen Yi said.

"Sigh! I know that too, but I searched through Tian Sihua's luggage thoroughly and still couldn't find the codebook," Lin Jiang said dejectedly.

"And that Tian Sihua, she was beaten in the interrogation room for almost a whole day yesterday. The whip almost broke, but she didn't say a word."

"You didn't get anything out of them?" Shen Yi frowned. "What about the female flight attendant?"

"She did confess some things, but she didn't know where the codebook was. She said she was only responsible for passing the intelligence to Tian Sihua," Lin Jiang said.

"Brother Shen, why don't you come with me to the interrogation room later? I don't know if Tian Sihua will confess today. If she doesn't, this lead will be cut off."

"it is good."

Shen Yi nodded; he also wanted to meet that Japanese spy.

"Let's not talk about that for now. You're the deputy leader of Team One now, so let me first introduce you to the situation of Team One," Lin Jiang said.

Lin Jiang omitted the word "acting" because he had heard Zhao Lijun say that Shen Yi was a junior colleague of the director, and he knew that the "acting" position was only temporary.

Lin Jiang then explained the basic situation of Group 1.

The action group has three squads, and only officers can serve as captains and deputy captains.

Each team has one captain, two or three vice-captains, and fifty or sixty team members.

Shen Yi is now second only to the leader in the Action Group, and above a hundred others.

Of course, his subordinates are not convinced of his authority, and some of the team leaders even hate him.

The deputy leader of the previous action team was accidentally shot during a mission, leaving the position vacant.

The new deputy leader should have been chosen from among the three team leaders, and Shen Yi's arrival undoubtedly took their place.

Furthermore, Shen Yi is currently just a junior lieutenant who has just graduated from police academy, making it even less likely that he will be respected by the public.

Therefore, Shen Yi knew that being the acting deputy team leader was not an easy job, and he also knew that Dai Chunfeng had the intention of testing him.

The position has been given to him; now it's up to him to hold onto it.

"Come on, let me take you to your office first," Lin Jiang said.

He then took Shen Yi to the former deputy team leader's office, which was opposite Lin Jiang's office. It was smaller and more simply furnished.

The captains and vice-captains did not have separate offices; they worked together in one large office.

Lin Jiang and Shen Yi then entered the office.

"Team Leader"...

There were only three people in the office at the time, all of them men. They immediately stood up and greeted Lin Jiang when they saw him.

Lin Jiang nodded. "Since all three of you captains are here, let me introduce you."

"This is Shen Yi, our new acting deputy team leader."

Upon hearing this, the three immediately looked at Shen Yi, who was standing behind Lin Jiang, and said, "Hello, Deputy Team Leader Shen."

Their expressions weren't too surprised, because Lin Jiang had told them about Shen Yi becoming the deputy group leader yesterday.

They had already been surprised by Shen Yi then, and now they were scrutinizing him more.

They wanted to know if this new deputy team leader had any other impressive qualities besides strong connections.

Shen Yi looked at the three captains, one of whom he recognized.

Qi Yunshan, the captain of the first action team, was also present when the train was being used for the arrest.

Lin Jiang then introduced the three team leaders to Shen Yi.

Team One is led by Qi Yunshan, Team Two by Su Mao, and Team Three by Wu Fuchun.

During the introduction, Qi Yunshan and Wu Fuchun both greeted Shen Yi with smiles, and Wu Fuchun even flattered him a couple of times.

Only Su Mao, with a cold face, greeted "Hello, Deputy Team Leader Shen," his expression somewhat strained.

Shen Yi didn't take it to heart.

Compared to someone like Su Mao who wears his heart on his sleeve, it is someone who hides a knife behind a smile who is far more terrifying.

Take Wu Fuchun, for example.

Although Shen Yi and Qi Yunshan only exchanged a few words on the train, he had already gotten a good grasp of each other's personalities.

While I wouldn't say I'm indifferent to fame and fortune, I do have a somewhat easygoing attitude.

Although Wu Fuchun flattered him verbally, there was a knife hidden in his eyes.

Portrait artists are best at observation. Although Wu Fuchun hid it well, Shen Yi could still see the hatred he harbored for him.

. . . . . .

Lin Jiang then led Shen Yi, Qi Yunshan, and Su Mao to the interrogation room located on the basement floor, while Wu Fuchun went out on a field mission.

As soon as I stepped into the interrogation room, a pungent odor hit me, a mixture of blood, rust, and damp mold, making me feel nauseous.

Screams could be heard from inside from time to time, which sounded even more eerie.

The group walked further in until they reached the innermost room, from which the screams were coming from.

Shen Yi followed Lin Jiang into the room and saw Tian Sihua tied to a pillar.

His body was now covered in bloodstains, and his once neat clothes were now stained red with blood.

At that moment, a burly man was whipping him with a whip.

Besides the two of them, there was another person in the room—Ma Li, the leader of the first intelligence team.

Lin Jiang walked over to Ma Li and asked, "Team Leader Ma, how did it go?"

"Team Leader Lin is here?"

"What else can we do? It's the same as yesterday."

As Ma Li spoke, he rubbed his temples, feeling quite anxious.

"You know, he should cry out when the whip strikes him, but why doesn't he say anything?"

Lin Jiang sighed upon hearing this, "We have to make him talk, whether he wants to or not. Team Leader Ma, you must be tired after interrogating for so long. Go back and rest. I'll take care of things here."
