Genius Agent

Chapter 97 Personal Interrogation

Ken Kato lay in his dormitory room with a smug smile on his face.

His roommate was on a mission in Nanshi and has been confirmed dead. Until a new person arrives at the dormitory, this place belongs to him alone.

He can freely express his emotions as long as he doesn't make a sound.

Taniguchi Satoshi is nothing but a brute who has mocked me many times. This time, let's see how he dies.

Once there is evidence, Taniguchi Satoshi will inevitably be arrested, and may even be tortured.

Satoshi Taniguchi doesn't have any powerful backers, and even if he did, he wouldn't be cannon fodder in the action group.

No one will protect him, and even if they eventually find out he is innocent, he will still face death.

It's a pity he wasn't involved in this case. He really wanted to interrogate Taniguchi Satoshi himself and see him wronged and unable to defend himself.

At the newspaper office, Su Yuncheng sat at his desk, his eyes closed in thought.

Shen Mozhou is good; he replied to him today, and it was exactly as he guessed. The Shanghai Special Higher Police wanted to retaliate against Cao Lijun, but Cao Lijun discovered it and killed him.

This time, however, Cao Lijun did not discover the Japanese spy on his own; rather, someone called him to warn him.

The person making the call was a woman.

Cao Lijun didn't know who had warned them, but it certainly wasn't an informant from the Shanghai station.

They conducted an internal verification and confirmed that Shen Mozhou was not one of their people.

Aside from the Shanghai station, he was the only member of the Special Service in Shanghai, and no one else on his side was doing this.

What Su Yuncheng was thinking about now was this person's identity.

This person knew about the Special Higher Police's actions and was definitely connected to the Japanese, but he wasn't from the Special Service Department. Who was so kind as to remind Cao Lijun?

Furthermore, how did she find out about the Special Higher Police's operation? What was her relationship with the Japanese?

These are all mysteries.

Su Yuncheng did not allow Shen Mozhou to take any action. At present, Shen Mozhou's main task is to investigate the people in the Party Affairs Investigation Department. Whether he reported this matter to the Special Service Department or not is not important.

Now that the mission had been given to him, Su Yuncheng wasn't afraid of the Special Service finding out.

For several days in a row, Shen Mozhou took Chen Yansheng out early and returned late.

This was the first task Su Yuncheng gave him, and he had to do it well. The task wasn't very dangerous; he was investigating people in the Party Affairs Investigation Department, and the department head wouldn't object.

Shen Mozhou did indeed give a report, and the section chief instructed him to investigate thoroughly.

The results of the investigation should also be sent to headquarters.

The Special Service Department and the Party Affairs Investigation Department are mortal enemies. Two years ago, the Director and Xu Laogui of the Special Service Department were already at odds and could not get along.

The two intelligence agencies have different responsibilities, so there are actually not many direct conflicts between them.

The Party Affairs Investigation Department mainly deals with internal affairs, and its most important task is to deal with the Red Party. They have arrested many Red Party members and are very familiar with the Red Party's way of doing things.

The Special Service, on the other hand, targets external forces, primarily other countries, as well as domestic warlords.

Among foreign countries, Japan is the main one.

Although the Special Service Department was established later, it achieved a lot. As rivals, the Special Service Department was regarded by Xu Laogui as a major threat.

Old Xu was even more wary of them than of the Red Party.

……

Shanghai Special Higher Police Department.

"Kato, open the door!"

Ken Kato was in his dormitory when Captain Takumi Endo suddenly knocked on the door. Ken Kato was slightly startled and immediately got up to open the door.

How is your recovery going?

Takumi Endo came in, glanced at Kento Kato, and casually asked,

"Captain, I'm fine now."

Ken Kato quickly replied that his mobility had indeed almost fully recovered.

"It's alright, come with me for a moment."

Endo Takumi nodded slightly and led Kato Ken to the interrogation room. As they entered the interrogation room, Kato Ken's heart raced. Why did the captain suddenly bring him here?

Did the team leader or group leader find something?

Kato Ken quickly dismissed this idea. His disguise was not easily seen through by ordinary people. If they really found out it was him, it wouldn't be just the captain coming to see him. It would probably be several people who grabbed him together and took him into the interrogation room.

The captain must have had another reason for bringing him in.

Upon entering the interrogation room, Ken Kato paused slightly in surprise.

There was a person locked on an iron stool inside. This person was no stranger to Ken Kato; it was none other than Satoshi Taniguchi.

No wonder I haven't seen Taniguchi Satoshi these past two days, and there's been no news of him. Taniguchi Satoshi has been arrested, and it looks like he's been tortured.

There was another person sitting in the interrogation room, Sato, the deputy head of the intelligence team.

"Team leader."

Kato Takeru approached Sato and bowed to greet him.

"Kato, have your injuries fully recovered?"

Sato asked with a smile, and Kato immediately nodded, "Thank you for your concern, Team Leader. Everything is fine now."

"That's good. You were injured for the sake of the Empire, and the Empire will not forget you."

Sato said softly, but Kato Ken disagreed. He was indeed injured for the Empire, but what happened after he was injured?

How did these so-called imperial elites treat him?

He was met with ridicule and sarcasm, becoming the biggest joke in the Special Higher School and the subject of everyone's conversation.

Ken Kato knew very well that the entire Special Higher Police had been talking about him, including the group leader and the section chief; they must have said it.

"Thank you, team leader. You asked me to come here. Is there a task for me? Don't worry, I will definitely do it well."

Kato Ken said softly, while Sato's smile widened: "That's right, I heard you learned some interrogation techniques back then, so now I'm having you pry open Taniguchi Satoshi's mouth."

"Taniguchi Satoshi?" Kato Ken asked knowingly.

"He betrayed the empire, provided intelligence to the Chinese, and caused the deaths of six of us."

Sato gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Actually, they arrested Taniguchi Satoshi yesterday. Sato has been investigating the woman's whereabouts, but unfortunately, he has no clues."

The woman did not appear for several days in a row.

However, he did make some progress these past few days. He discovered an important clue: Taniguchi Satoshi had been to the woman's house.

In fact, Ken Kato not only disguised himself as a woman, but also deliberately wore the same clothes as Satoshi Taniguchi, changed his hairstyle to be the same as Taniguchi's, put on sunglasses, and went into the house with his head down.

This was done intentionally by Kenji Kato, with the aim of framing Satoshi Taniguchi.

All his previous arrangements had worked successfully, and had convinced Sato of Taniguchi's true identity.

But Sato didn't expect that Taniguchi Satoshi would refuse to confess and keep crying foul.

Moreover, he was very stubborn and wouldn't talk no matter how much torture was applied.

Yesterday's torture lasted quite a while, but Taniguchi Satoshi didn't confess, so they couldn't continue torturing him. Today, Sato brought Taniguchi Satoshi back again.

He had to get Taniguchi Satoshi to confess as soon as possible and see if he could catch the Chinese woman.

If he can be caught, this achievement will significantly mitigate his previous mistakes.

Unfortunately, no matter how many kind words he said, or even promised to release Taniguchi Satoshi in the future, Taniguchi Satoshi still insisted that he was wronged.

Having no other option, Sato called for Endo Takumi.

Takumi Endo suggested that Ken Kato, who had previously learned many interrogation techniques and had now recovered considerably, could be given a try.

Kato Takeru was injured and has been recuperating, so he hasn't been involved in anything related to the group.

Sato had previously investigated all those who knew about the matter, including Ken Kato.

But Kento Kato was either training and recovering or looking at things in the archives; there was nothing unusual about him.

Most importantly, that's where Kento Kato was injured; women had no effect on him.

It can be said that throughout this leak, Sato never had a single doubt about Kato Ken.
