The secret war is silent

The facts described by Qin Yuru were simple. She came to change shifts in the morning and during a routine inspection, she found signs that the safe had been tampered with.

Then she opened the safe and saw that nothing else was missing, except the Japanese Navy code book that she had worked so hard to get.

This is the treasure of the telecommunications department.

She was startled and searched several times. After confirming that the code book was lost, she immediately called Wei Daming to report the matter.

After Wei Daming received the news, he immediately ordered the entire telecommunications office to be blocked and no one was allowed in or out. At the same time, he thought about Dai Yunong's invitation to dinner last night and mentioned the Navy's code book and Luo Yao's desire to make a copy.

Subconsciously, with passion rushing to his mind, he called Dai Yunong to file a complaint against Luo Yao.

Continue this complaint.

He regretted it.

But I regret not having to take the medicine...

Who was on duty in the confidential room last night? Luo Yao asked.

Qin Yuru glanced at Wei Daming, who nodded, and then she replied: It's confidential officer Shi Xing.

Where's Shi Xingren?

It has been controlled. Wei Daming said.

Director Wei, if you don't mind, I would like to ask Shi Xing a few questions? Luo Yao lowered his head and thought for a moment.

Of course. If Deputy Director Luo can help me solve the case, it's not too late for me to welcome you! Wei Daming smiled sarcastically.

Now as long as he can solve the case and catch the thief, he doesn't have to resign. Compared to the position of director of the Telecommunications Department, there is nothing wrong with bowing his head for a while.

I just have an old habit, so I may not be able to help Director Wei. Luo Yao chuckled.

Wei Daming smiled slightly awkwardly.

This isn't a bad thing anyway.

After a while, the confidential officer named Shi Xing was brought over to see the scratches on his face and the buttons on his clothes that fell off.

At one glance, it was clear that this Shi Xing had committed many crimes.

Shi Xing, right?

yes.

You were on duty in the confidential room last night. While you were on duty, did you notice anything unusual, such as people who never came to the confidential room at night, or noises? Luo Yao got straight to the point.

No, last night around nine o'clock, I changed shifts with Director Qin. I was in my position. All I saw were the people who usually come to the confidential room. Moreover, the room where confidential documents are kept is the director's office. I don't have the key. , can’t get in either…”

That is to say, you can only watch the poor people outside when you are on duty, but you don't know what is happening inside?

Yes, but I'm always here, and the door to the director's office is always locked. Shi Xing glanced at Qin Yuru and said.

You were on duty for such a long time, and you didn't doze off or go to the toilet? Luo Yao asked.

I didn't doze off because the telecommunications office was busy at night and I had no chance to doze off.

Even if you didn't doze off, how can you be sure that no one sneaked into the director's office and stole the code book during your shift? Luo Yao asked rhetorically.

My position is next to the door of the director's office. If someone enters through the door and can avoid my eyes, wouldn't I be blind?

That's true. Luo Yao nodded, Since no suspicious person entered the director's office during your shift, and you didn't hear any unusual noises, and the doors and windows in the office were intact, this is something fishy. , if the codebook was stolen before you changed shifts with Director Qin, then the person responsible is Director Qin, what do you think, Director Qin?

I... Qin Yuru's face turned pale. Why did this matter happen to her again? She discovered that the code book was stolen.

In this case, Director Qin and Shi Xing, you two are the biggest suspects. It was you who took over last night and this morning, and you both claimed that you didn't find any abnormalities. In this way, I can reasonably infer that this must be Either one of you or both of you are committing theft! Luo Yao asserted directly.

This time, everyone else present was shocked. Wei Daming suspected Shi Xing because the theft occurred while Shi Xing was on duty, but he did not suspect Qin Yuru. If she had a problem, why would he put her in such an important position? position.

Shi Xing was so frightened that he was stunned. He opened his mouth again and again, apparently as if he had a grievance that he couldn't express.

Qin Yuru was even more trembling.

I'll give you a chance to defend yourself. Whoever can convince me will be cleared of suspicion. Luo Yao said, looking at the two of them.

Deputy Director Luo, if I guard the thief, what good will it do to us? This codebook has no value at all to outsiders.

Yes, this Japanese Navy code book is worthless to many people, but to the intelligence agency, it is priceless. If it were me, I would spend money to buy it as long as the price is right. Luo Yaodao .

Then who did I steal the code book and sell it to? Besides, I never left the telecommunications office, and the code book is a small thing?

Yes, the codebook is not a small thing. If you hide it and come back to pick it up after the incident subsides, then no one will suspect you?

Shi Xing's eyes wanted to burst into flames, but he was at a loss for words and didn't know how to speak.

Director Qin, what about you, what can you say to defend yourself?

I have nothing to say. Since Deputy Director Luo has determined that I am the thief behind bars, let's ask Deputy Director Luo to provide evidence. Why should I prove my innocence? Qin Yuru calmed down, faced Luo Yao, and chose the opposite. To defend is to attack.

What perfume does Director Qin use? Luo Yao suddenly asked.

Qin Yuru frowned. She was a little confused by this question. Even other people present felt that Luo Yao's thinking was a bit wild and he had no idea what it meant.

Director Qin, everyone has a love for beauty. Director Qin, if I guess correctly, you are using the latest No. 5 perfume imported from Paris, France. This type of perfume is very rare in mountain cities. Such a The vials are all fought over by ladies and gentlemen, right? Luo Yao said, As the director of the Confidential Office, you can't afford it with your salary, right?

Yes, I can't afford this perfume, but that doesn't mean I can't afford it. Qin Yuru's eyes flashed and she replied.

A gift from your boyfriend? Luo Yao smiled playfully.

As soon as these words came out.

Qin Yuru's face instantly turned as pale as a blank sheet of paper. She knew about the ban on military command. Not to mention her as the director of the Confidential Office. If she were at the level of director, she would be in violation of the ban, and she would be detained at the Wanglong Gate. Detention center, where is that place?

Haha, I don't think Director Qin would violate the ban even though he knew it. Was it a gift from a friend? Luo Yao asked.

Yes. Qin Yuru nodded.

Director Qin works in the Telecommunications Department. He is not allowed to leave the Telecommunications Department unless necessary. Your circle of friends is so large that it is very simple to investigate. Do you want me to ask Director Wei to issue an order and inquire?

No, no need, I said, I said... Qin Yuru said hurriedly in fright, The perfume was given by Miss Zhang Dai, the third secretary of the British Embassy who visited the Telecommunications Office a few days ago.

Zhang Dai?

Why is it related to people from the British intelligence team?

Now that Zhang Dai has been revealed, Qin Yuru feels more confident. There is no question about the origin of the perfume. What else can you doubt.

Why did Zhang Dai give you such an expensive perfume? As the saying goes, people must ask for something if they are polite. You and Zhang Dai should have never met before.

I just complimented her casually that the perfume she was wearing smelled good, so she took out a bottle from her bag and gave it to me directly. I didn't ask for it at the time, and it was no reward, but she said, just one bottle Perfume is not a valuable item, so I accepted it without thinking about it. Later I found out that this brand of perfume is so expensive, but I accepted it, used it, and didn’t go back. Qin Yuru explained. .

Makes sense.

When Zhang Dai gave you the perfume, did anyone else see it? Luo Yao asked.

No, the two of us were talking at the time, and others were visiting the telecommunications office. If anyone knows, the British Major Catherine should know.

After all, no one in the telecommunications department can prove that it was Zhang Dai who gave you the perfume?

Qin Yuru was silent.

Sir, why do the British want to visit the Telecommunications Office? Is it at their own request? Luo Yao asked Dai Yunong.

Major Catherine is an expert in telecommunications. She has a strong interest in our field and proposed to visit the telecommunications office. In addition, we also invited her to come over and provide relevant guidance. Wei Daming explained.

Luo Yao nodded. The British are indeed better than the Chinese in telecommunications technology. This must be admitted.

But the British are not necessarily all good people. They started out as bandits. If they are not careful, they will be the ones who suffer.

Did anyone leave the Telecommunications Office between last night and this morning?

have.

Can you show me the list?

Wei Daming did not refuse and asked someone to bring over the list of people who were going out.

There are seventeen people in total on the list.

Are all these seventeen people here?

Fourteen are back, and three are not, but they all went out because they had something to do. A person familiar with the situation said.

Can you pick out the people here who have a good relationship with Director Qin and Shi Xing? Luo Yao asked.

Can.

Soon, seven of them were hooked out, two of them had no relationship with Shi Xing, and the remaining five had a better relationship with Qin Yuru.

Qin Yuru is the director of the confidential office, so her interpersonal relationships are more complicated than Shi Xing's. This is natural, and among the people who have a good relationship with Qin Yuru are both men and women, unlike Shi Xing, the people who have a good relationship with him are all men.

Are there any people here who accompanied Catherine and Zhang Dai to visit the telecommunications office that day? Luo Yao asked again.

The person from the Human Resources Department hesitated and clicked on one of the names.

As soon as she saw this name, Qin Yuru fainted and fell to the ground.

Those present did not understand what was going on.

Quick, control this Wang Ren immediately!
