Chapter 88 is terrifying
"Section Chief Qu, could you tell me about what's happened these past few days?"
Since it concerned his future prospects, Shen Mozhou had to find out the details so he could meet with the Director tomorrow.
Qu Ning did not refuse; to be precise, he only recounted what had happened yesterday.
After Qu Ning finished speaking, Shen Mozhou felt a little dizzy. So many things had happened at headquarters in just one day?
Who exactly is this Dandelion? How is he so powerful that he captured four Japanese spies all by himself?
Although one of them died, he was a Japanese spy.
Arresting four Japanese spies in one day, belonging to two different groups of spies, and seizing a radio and a codebook, was an unprecedented and dazzling achievement for the Special Service.
"Thank you, Section Chief Qu. I'll be going now."
"I'll take you there."
Qu Ning did not try to stop him, and took the initiative to escort Shen Mozhou to his doorstep. The Special Operations Section was not large, but it was still a section, and it was a section recognized by the department.
Shen Mozhou was a section chief in fact, and they were at the same level in terms of their positions.
Qu Ning was different from the others; he knew best how powerful Dandelion was. Some people in the intelligence department said it was luck, but how come no one in the intelligence department had such luck in the past ten days?
Qu Ning, as the section chief, unlike the others who were sour, clearly understood that Dandelion's outstanding individual abilities led her to discover anomalies and find new clues.
Such a person is extremely dangerous. The Special Operations Section serves Dandelion, and he would never easily offend Shen Mozhou.
Back home, Shen Mozhou was still thinking about dandelions.
Who on earth is so powerful?
At the same time, he weighed the pros and cons of his new position.
First of all, his power has definitely been reduced. There are only two people in the Special Operations Section, him and Chen Yansheng. What use is the title of section chief if he doesn't have one? Without Chen Yansheng, he is just a commander without troops.
Although he was the deputy head of the training department, he had many subordinates and many students at his beck and call.
But in the long run, the Secret Service doesn't seem to be as bad as people think.
He can always add manpower if needed; it's really unreasonable for a department to only have two people.
Dandelion found Hibiscus in two hours and captured four Japanese spies in one day; no one could match that achievement.
Dandelion was not a member of the Special Service, but the Director valued her highly.
The Special Operations Section, specially established for Dandelion, is equally important to the Chief.
After thinking for a while, Shen Mozhou calmed down. The matter was already settled, and he couldn't change it.
Since that's the case, why not do well in the Special Operations Section? Maybe there will be a better future there.
He's a section chief now, at least the "deputy" part is gone.
"Director."
The next morning, Shen Mozhou came to the clerk's office and stood in front of the desk with his head down.
"You're back. Come and sit down."
The commissar had a smile on his face. Yesterday, he went to the old man to report and learned that Japanese spies had infiltrated his camp and even hid guns inside. The old man's anger was understandable.
The entire operation dealt with a large number of people.
It's no wonder the old man was angry, as it concerns his own life and safety.
Finding Furong's secret service naturally earned praise. The old man even said that the secret service should be expanded in the future, and that they should continue their efforts to eliminate all potential dangers in advance.
The section chief took the opportunity to commend some people and apply for funding.
All applications were approved.
On the way back to the Special Service Department, the chief was all smiles. The old man trusted him even more and valued him even more, which was exactly the result he wanted.
Furong and his associates are doomed, and the Wang family is utterly finished.
They brought Japanese spies into their homes and helped them into the camp, which is a heinous crime.
In ancient times, this would have meant the extermination of nine generations of their family; killing only one family was considered lenient.
"Chief, please give us your instructions regarding the Special Operations Section."
Shen Mozhou was good at talking. Instead of asking directly, he asked the section chief to guide them on how to do it. This was the same as asking what the Special Operations Section would do in the future.
But different ways of saying it can give people different feelings.
Sure enough, the director's smile deepened: "The Special Operations Section is very important, and Su Yuncheng is very capable. From now on, you will serve him well."
"Su Yuncheng?"
Shen Mozhou looked up in confusion. Wasn't it Dandelion? How come there's Su Yuncheng here too?
In that instant, a possibility occurred to him: Dandelion was a code name, and even Qu Ning didn't know who he was. Could Dandelion be Su Yuncheng?
How is that possible? Isn't Su Yuncheng still in Shanghai?
"That's right, Dandelion is Su Yuncheng's code name. Not many people in the department know about it yet, so you must keep it strictly confidential."
Su Yuncheng's performance was so outstanding that the Director instinctively wanted to protect him. Shen Mozhou and Chen Yansheng had both met Su Yuncheng, and since they were also serving Su Yuncheng, they wanted to let them know the truth.
But it only applies to the two of them.
Sure enough, Dandelion was Su Yuncheng. Even though he had already guessed, Shen Mozhou still couldn't quite believe it.
Su Yuncheng came to Nanjing and even found Furong?
Didn't he refuse the invitation before?
"You can stay in Shanghai for now. Don't worry about the funding. I'll also give you an action team. Make sure they're well taken care of. First, protect yourselves and Su Yuncheng. Second, if anything happens, having someone on your side will make things easier."
The director said slowly, "Shen Mozhou and Chen Yansheng are both talented people. Giving them an action team will make things much easier, at least we won't have to make them do everything themselves."
The task force did not know Su Yuncheng's true identity, and even if he was exposed and arrested, it would not have a direct impact on Su Yuncheng.
The director believed that Shen Mozhou would settle these people properly, so that no one would be exposed and threaten him and Su Yuncheng.
"Thank you, Director."
Shen Mozhou hurriedly thanked him. Fortunately, there weren't really only two people in the Special Operations Section. A section chief like that would be better off not doing the job at all.
The division chief assigned only twelve people to the action team.
They're not even as good as a small squad from the Operations Department.
However, Shen Mozhou was in Shanghai, within the foreign concessions, and twelve people were enough for him.
Another issue is funding. The director is very generous, reimbursing all normal expenses of the Special Operations Section. All they need to do is stay in Shanghai and serve by Su Yuncheng's side.
Half an hour later, Shen Mozhou left the Special Service Department.
This trip was worthwhile; we finally got to know the whole situation.
He just hadn't expected Su Yuncheng to have such strong abilities; it was truly beyond his expectations.
His heart was still aching as he boarded the train.
Su Yuncheng was the first person he had his eye on and wanted to take as a student, but now that student is completely gone. Given Su Yuncheng's current performance, he is no longer qualified to take him on.
Forget about accepting him, he's already become someone else's subordinate.
However, this also proves that his judgment was correct; Su Yuncheng is indeed a talented person.
In Shanghai, Su Yuncheng arrived at the newspaper office early.
He left the newspaper office for three days, two of which were spent on the train, and there was nothing unusual at the newspaper office during those three days.
Huang Chuanming and the others first familiarized themselves with the camera they brought back, and also did some interviews and looked for news.
"Mr. Durand, Mr. Dubois, welcome."
That evening, Su Yuncheng booked a private room at the Luowei Hotel to host a special dinner for Dylan and Dubois.
The French Concession Municipal Council has announced new appointments. The former Commissioner of Police, Martin, has resigned voluntarily, and Durand has officially taken over.
Dubois succeeded Durand as head of the education committee.
