After confirming Zhang Shuo's identity as a spy, Liang Neng was in a good mood. He was completely relieved.
Ever since he entered the Military Intelligence Investigation Agency, he had done a lot of hard work, but he had not done a single thing.
He was very eager to make some achievements.
Therefore, even if there was a little hope, he was not willing to give up. Hard work paid off!
So many days of torment were not in vain.
Putting everything else aside, it was a great achievement to have discovered Zhang Shuo as a spy.
Moreover, they might even be able to lure out the spies who came to pass on the information later on. It would be a double blessing if they could get a buy one get one free deal.
Perhaps he could break through the shackles of his military rank with this contribution. It would be best if he could be promoted from captain to major.
And all of this was because of Lu Chen's participation.
If it weren't for Lu Chen's superb portrait drawing skills a few days ago, their operation would have been canceled long ago.
Today, Lu Chen confirmed that the other party was a Japanese spy.
This operation was all thanks to Brother Lu Chen!
It had also completely changed his prejudice against the 'newbie's relationship. Now, he was talking about Brother Lu and his good brother.
After confirming Zhang Shuo's identity as a spy, the follow-up work was relatively simpler.
What they had to do was to control Zhang Shuo's whereabouts and wait for the arrival of the contact.
He would capture all of them in one fell swoop!
Just like that, the operation team left early and returned late every day. In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.
On this day, when Lu Chen came to the tea stall at the temporary command point as usual, he saw Liang Neng scolding an old agent under him in exasperation.
"What should I say about you? You can't even do this kind of thing well. To think that you're an old agent who's been in this line of work for three years.”
"He actually made such a low-level mistake!”
The subordinate lowered his head with a dejected expression, as if he had made a big mistake.
It was rare for Liang to throw such a tantrum so early in the morning.
Lu Chen walked over and asked,"Brother Liang, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?"”
Seeing Lu Chen coming over, Liang Neng's eyes were a little evasive.
"Hey!" He sighed and looked up at Lu Chen." Brother, I'm sorry.”
"Brother Liang, what exactly happened?”
Upon hearing this, coupled with Liang Neng's fake but sad expression, Lu Chen instinctively had a bad feeling.
As expected, Liang Neng's next words almost broke his defense.
"Generally speaking, the time period for spies to engage in information exchange is 14 days.”
"It has been 16 days since we took full control of Zhang Shuo, but we still haven't found any clues about the other party's contact.”
"So…"
"So what?"
Liang Neng paused for a moment and then said,"So I sent someone to Zhang Shuo's residence.”
" Unfortunately, the operation failed."
Hearing this, Lu Chen almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
He briefly explained the process, and Lu Chen also knew the whole story.
It turned out that when Zhang Shuo left the house this morning, Liang Neng had sent agents in to collect some useful clues.
Of course, they wouldn't use the proper way to enter. They would either unlock the door or climb in through the window.
This time, the old agent chose to enter through the window. When he entered, he did not find anything unusual. He only saw that someone had tied a knot with hair behind the door and stuck it in the crack of the door.
This knot was tied with a special technique. Once someone opened the door slightly wider, the hair would be broken.
Moreover, it was unrecoverable.
This way, when the target returned and saw that the mark he left behind had been moved, he would immediately know that someone had been to his room.
Just as the old agent was secretly glad that he did not go through the main entrance, he did not know that the other party had also done something to the window.
Zhang Shuo had sprinkled a layer of dust on the window. It was a special kind of dust. It should have been specially brought over by the Japanese. There was a small amount of it, so he didn't notice it when he opened it.
The old agent also searched the room for a while. Through the sunlight that came in from outside, he found some gray powder on the window couch.
At this moment, he realized that the other party had put dust on the window.
This kind of ash was a special kind of ash. They could not find a substitute at all.
This also meant that once Zhang Shuo returned home from work and returned to the rented room, he would be able to find out that the window had been touched.
Someone had entered his room.
A professional Japanese spy like him would definitely find out at the first moment, destroy all the important materials, and carry out the escape plan.
Lu Chen was speechless.
He had already waited for 16 days. Was there still a need to wait a little longer?
If they went to Zhang Shuo's room at this time and alerted the enemy, it would be equivalent to waiting for more than ten days in vain!
Good lord, he had suggested this to Liang Neng many times. As long as he waited patiently, there would definitely be results. Liang Neng also assured him.
But what was the result? Liang Neng still couldn't hold it in.
He was eager for quick success and instant benefits, losing a lot for a small gain!
If it wasn't for the fact that the other party was his captain and his superior, Lu Chen would have wanted to slap him.
No wonder Team Three's performance had been so bad. Even if there was an opportunity, they couldn't grasp it!
