Based on the existing investigation results, Zuo Chong roughly divided the people involved into three categories.

One is the staff of the Golden Lan Club.

The second is the Jinlan Association members including Zhong Xiao and Xiang Fang, who cooperated with Sima Linglong to test the Director of the Military Association of the Official Residence and the Sheriff who tests He Yijun.

The third is an unknown person who had gone to Hongdian to investigate.

Judging from the confession, the first and second types of personnel know very little information, and the role they play is either a cover for cover or an outer member of the spy organization, which is the kind that can be abandoned at any time.

The third type of personnel is Sima Linglong's real accomplices. These people enter and exit the Jinlan Club through secret passages, using this method to receive tasks and carry out encounters.

If the spy organization is regarded as a spider web, Sima Linglong is the commander who lives in the middle of the spider web, and the rest collect information without knowing it.

This combination of light and dark, virtual and real structure greatly enhances the concealment of the spy organization, but once Sima Linglong, as the core, is arrested or lets go during interrogation, the entire spy organization will be exposed.

So, even though Sima Linglong, who was on the open, was very dangerous, why did the enemy set up the joint location in Jinlanhui?

If you want to contact and connect, the other party can place the connector outside the Jinlan Club. Even if you use a dead mailbox, it is safer than this structure.

Zuo Chong felt that figuring out this would be the key to the case investigation, because anyone does anything with an internal logic drive, and the opponent cannot reveal such a big flaw for no reason.

As long as they find out the internal logic, they can infer the enemy's purpose and identity from this. Even if Sima Linglong doesn't speak, it will only be a matter of time before the case is solved.

Gu Qi also thought of the truth. He put down his chopsticks and showed regretful expressions: "Second post, shouldn't we catch Sima Linglong? We should follow the clues through her. Now the real spy must be shocked."

Zuo Chong shook his head: "This time the opponent is a bit strange and cautious. If our actions are detected, the opponent may choose to kill someone to silence him."

Gu Qi understood that the Military Control Commission currently only has human witnesses. If the human witness is gone, Sima Linglong will have a chance to escape from the crime. This is worth noting.

While the two were talking, Wu Chunyang walked in from outside. He shouted to the chef and sat heavily on the stool.

"How is it? Zhong Xiao and Bian Jichao have both arranged it." Zuo Chong glanced at him and asked casually.

While taking the rice handed over by the chef, Wu Chunyang replied: "After the arrangements, I will remind the guards to protect the two of them in a row in case of accidents."

From this we can see Wu Chunyang's caution and alertness. Obviously, he also realized the importance of human witnesses. The Military Control Commission detention center is safe, but it is always right to be careful.

After placing his stomach a little, Wu Chunyang asked about the results of the interrogation against Sima Linglong, and Gu Qi introduced the situation. Wu Chunyang frowned and said in confusion after hearing this.

"According to Zhong Xiao's confession, Sima Linglong's training for them is very simple, and it can even be said to be perfunctory. Performing tasks with this level of training is simply seeking death.

Moreover, Sima Linglong seemed to be particularly concerned about business information. Zhong Xiao once asked her why, but the other party did not give a reasonable explanation, only saying that it was a need for the organization.

Some time ago, Sima Linglong asked Zhong Xiao to fully collect details of the steel restructuring plan of the State Government, such as the types and quantity of equipment procurement, etc..”

Pay attention to business information...steel restructuring plan...equipment procurement...

Zuo Chong repeatedly thought about these key information, constantly combining them in his mind, splitting them and recombining them, trying to figure it out.

Will Sima Linglong be a commercial spy? It’s not very similar. Commercial spy organizations do not have the ability to study psychological control, and they dare not fight head-on with official intelligence agencies.

When she was arrested before, there was a secret passage in Sima Linglong's room, but she didn't use it. There were no such commercial spies in the world.

In the final analysis, business intelligence activities are gray-born. Since they are gray-born, they will be shameless, which is inconsistent with Sima Linglong's confidence.

By the way, Sima Linglong once went into exile in the United States and grew up in the local area. The United States is a commercial country. Could it be that the other party is from the American intelligence agency?

It's not right. For its own interests in East Asia, this US government agreed with the joint anti-Japanese war and it was impossible to disclose the encirclement and suppression information to the Japanese.

Wait! I seem to have made something wrong. The attitude of the US government does not equal the attitude of all Americans.

In the United States, there is a group of people who not only value business interests, but also have strong economic and technological strength, and are even more keen on provoking wars.

A light of inspiration flashed through Zuo Chong's mind, and he had guessed Sima Linglong's background. No wonder the other party dared to set up the joint location in Jinlanhui. It turned out that he was not afraid of exposure at all!

He suddenly stood up and looked at He Yijun: "Yijun, go find Miss Kong Er immediately, Plan B can be implemented."

Gu Qi and others present were full of questions, what is Plan B? When they were still confused, He Yijun nodded and quickly left the cafeteria.

Without waiting for everyone to ask questions, Zuo Chong smiled and said, "It's all over. After the meal, we'll go to meet the guests. They come from afar and should be treated well."

After saying that, he strode towards the interrogation area. Everyone quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks to follow, guessing in their hearts the meaning of the words "Plan B" and "Far From Away".

Five minutes later, Zuo Chong met Sima Linglong, who was still calm in the interrogation room.

Seeing Zuo Chong return, Sima Linglong showed a slightly surprised expression on her face. She looked at the newly appeared Wu Chunyang, Song Minghao, Gui Youguang and others and spoke tentatively.

"Mr. Zuo, you are back so soon. Could you ask me any questions? Don't worry, I will know everything."

Zuo Chong ignored Sima Linglong, who was showing off, slowly sat down on the stool, turned around and said an English word to everyone.

"elephant, do you know what it means?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sima Linglong, a few meters away, froze when she heard this word, her face froze and then returned to normal instantly, but her body leaned back in a defensive posture, and her originally slightly unrestrained attitude was slightly restrained.

This scene was seen by Guqi and others, and knew that the deputy director just said "elephant" that hit the target's weakness.

But what is the connection between "elephants" and spies? Why did the target react so much after hearing this?

After verifying what he thought, Zuo Chong was not in a hurry to interrogate Sima Linglong. Since he knew the other party’s background, the rest was simple. He slowly spoke in the eyes of everyone.

"In 1874, Thomas Naster, a famous American cartoonist, published a cartoon in Harpers Weekly, depicting an elephant and a donkey in lion's skin.

In the comics, the elephant was frightened by a donkey, one was so huge and strong, the other was so short and thin, and the former was frightened by the latter. Isn’t it a bit funny?”

Regarding this question, Gu Qi, Song Minghao and Gui Youguang chose to remain silent, but Wu Chunyang seemed to have thought of something and subconsciously looked at Sima Linglong who was forced to calm down.

Zuo Chong held his arm and told stories to tell the background and actual meaning of the comic.

"Actually, this cartoon reflects the US political bureau at that time, which is related to the midterm elections in 1874. The donkey refers to the D party and the elephant refers to the R party.

In Western societies, elephants are often regarded as symbols of strength, stability and wisdom, and have good memory, traits that are considered consistent with the R Party, implying that the R Party attaches importance to tradition and history.

Therefore, the elephant has gradually been accepted by the government and widely used in the R Party logo and propaganda materials, and has become a part of American culture. I am right, Ms. Sima?"

Zuo Chong asked Sima Linglong a question, and then, regardless of whether the other party answered or not, continued to popularize American political culture, especially party culture with his subordinates.

"The political ecology of the United States is different from that of the Republic of China. It implements the D and R parties to take turns to rule. The current US general administration comes from the D party, and the R party is in the opposition party. The two and the judiciary check and balance each other.

This political system ensures that no one can dominate the country, which looks good, but they each have a group of supporters who actually dominate the internal affairs and external decision-making of the United States.

Take the D Party as an example. Most of its capitalists come from the financial industry and emerging industries, such as the Mogen family, the Boston Consortium, the Citigroup, and the Chicago Consortium, which value international capital flows.

The supporters of the R Party are different, mainly composed of the Lockofell family, Mellon consortium, DuPont family, Cleveland consortium and Texas consortium engaged in the steel, arms and energy industries.

The differences in interests and positions lead to irreconcilable contradictions between the two parties. For example, the D Party hopes that the world order will be stable and has a friendly attitude towards the Republic of China to facilitate its capital activities.

The R Party is just the opposite. It is very keen on war and sells any goods through war. If there is no war, they will create war, and the other side is also the biggest driving force for the transportation of war materials to Japan.

The current US president of the D party is a strategist with a pattern and has given a lot of aid to the government, but the R party does not like the other party's diplomatic strategies."

Speaking of this, Zuo Chong smiled slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes asked Sima Linglong again.

"Miss Sima, I don't know which family you obey, Eaton, Hanna, Humphrey, or Mather?"

Gu Qi clenched his fist and smashed his palms, and instantly figured out a lot of things. The reason why Sima Linglong was concerned about the steel restructuring plan was originally the master's request.

Eaton, Hanna, Humphrey and Mather are all important members of the Cleveland Consortium. The Cleveland Consortium is also the largest machine manufacturer in the United States, so naturally wants to get a share of the restructuring plan.

The war between the government and the Japanese was in a stalemate before, and the intensity of the war was getting lower and lower. The Japanese side needed to import less materials, which seriously affected the interests of R Party supporters.

Therefore, when he learned that the government was about to encircle and suppress the northwest troops, the R Party intelligence personnel contributed to the fire and disclosed the encircle and suppression information to the Japanese, destroying the situation of joint anti-Japanese resistance and trying to make the war more intense.

As for how many people will die if they do this, it is not within the other party's consideration. Compared with the Japanese who took action personally, the well-dressed gentlemen on the KUK are also one of the culprits.

Wu Chunyang looked at Sima Linglong coldly, a native of the Republic of China, who helped other countries create conflicts and harmed their compatriots, and should be killed!

Song Minghao and Gui Youguang also reacted, and both looked at Sima Linglong with a bad expression, especially Gui Youguang, clenched the fist of the bowl.

But unlike dealing with Japanese spies, the government needs the support of the United States. Even if they wish to kill each other on the spot, they have to endure it.

"Ba~ba~ba~ba~ba~"

Sima Linglong on the interrogation chair straightened her back, gently puffed up her palms, and the handcuffs clattered.

"Deputy Director Zuo, your story is very good, but it won't take long for me to leave here. Do you believe it?"

Arrogant! Too arrogant!

Gui Youguang couldn't help it anymore, so he stood up and rolled up his sleeves to go over and give the other party a little color.

Zuo Chong raised his hand to stop the big bald head and whispered: "Ms. Sima, you are so confident and rely on nothing more than Americans, but will they definitely come forward?"
