Chapter 3098
From Gong Shiqi's point of view, there was not much to investigate in this incident.
The propaganda war between the Portuguese and Sing Tao has been escalating recently, even to the point of using unconventional means.Because it involves the field of diplomacy, it is inconvenient for other powerful departments such as the military and police to take action, and it is only proper for the Ministry of Security to stop it.
The incident was not complicated. If He Xi hadn't supervised it personally, then this was just one of the many hidden dangers that the security department dealt with on a daily basis.
But since this has attracted He Xi's great attention, Gong Shiqi believes that the reason may not be as simple as what He Xi said earlier.
He sat motionless in the chair, carefully recalling the content of the conversation with He Xi, and finally tasted something after a while.
After He Xi met him just now, he only asked about one person.This person was not Tan Tianming who had a special background, but Shao Tianhu who had just arrived in Sanya for a few days.
He Xi specifically asked him about his opinion of Shao Tianhu. Gong Shiqi didn't take it seriously at the time, but in retrospect, he realized that it was a detail that was easily overlooked.
With the security department's ability to handle affairs, it was easy for He Xi to get someone's information. Shao Tianhu's background and military experience basically had no secrets in front of the security department.
But He Xi didn't seem to be satisfied with the information on paper, and Gong Shiqi, who had a brief contact with him, made an evaluation of this person, so there should be some other intentions.
Unless Shao Tianhu has some secrets that he does not know.
Gong Shiqi recalled the materials he had seen about Shao Tianhu. Because of his outstanding performance in the army, he went to the military academy in Sanya for advanced studies. After returning to Xingdao, he was transferred to the foreign mercenary regiment as the battalion commander.
But this term of office was not too long, so he retired from the army and changed jobs, and went to Sanya to take over the vacant post of head of the Xingdao office.
Shao Tianhu's experience during his tenure in the mercenary regiment is not detailed in the materials.Considering the nature of the mercenary group, it seems that the missions he performed during this period involved military secrets, and even the people who made files for them did not know about them.
With Shao Tianhu's age and ability, he was arranged to be discharged from the army and transferred to Sanya at this time. This should not be a punishment for making a mistake, but a special promotion.
But why Xingdao didn't promote him to the military position on the spot, but sent him to Sanya all the way, Gong Shiqiyi still couldn't figure out the mystery.
Gong Shiqi opened his eyes and put down his teacup, stood up and walked out of the flower hall, and said, "Arrange someone to watch Shao Tianhu. I will know where he has been, who he has met, and what he has done in Sanya."
"Also, find a way to get in touch with those people who came from Xingdao with him, and see if we can find out what mission Shao Tianhu was performing before he came to Sanya."
He seemed to be talking to himself, but after he finished speaking, someone in the dark under the corridor led away.
Shao Tianhu didn't know that he was being watched secretly by some big figures, and he was on his way to the pier in the upper reaches of the Linchun River.
Originally, he planned to lock these people up for a few days, let them suffer first, and then let them go.But since the Ministry of Security has come to say hello, he can only terminate the plan ahead of schedule.
When he arrived at the place, Shao Tianhu was not in a hurry to enter the warehouse. He looked around for a while in the dark on the side of the road to confirm that no one was following him, and then he knocked on the small door on the side of the warehouse.
He didn't know whether the Ministry of Security had also monitored this place, just in case, it's better to be careful.
The light in the warehouse was dim, only a few oil lamps were lit.In order to keep the operation confidential, most of the personnel involved in today's snaring operation stayed here and did not return to the residence of the port inn.
The subordinates were a little surprised to see him rushing over at this time.Shao Tianhu left after dinner, how come he came back so quickly.
"Something went wrong and we had to stop."
Shao Tianhu didn't mention the Ministry of Security, but only said that his actions had been exposed, and the government had come forward to ask him to end the matter as soon as possible, and now he can only let him go.
Someone asked: "My lord, since the government has already found out, can we just let him go?"
Shao Tianhu said: "What the government means is that the matter has not gotten out of hand, let us close it as soon as it is good. As long as no one's life is hurt, we will not be held accountable."
"I know that the brothers may think that it is a waste of work to release them after catching today, but in fact it is still useful. At least the higher-ups have paid attention to this matter. It will not be so easy for the Portuguese to make small moves in the future."
Although everyone was a little disappointed, they also knew that this place was not Xingdao, but the center of the empire, and it was not a place where they could do whatever they wanted.The government only issued a warning and did not hold them accountable. This should be the slightest way to deal with it.
Anyway, late release and early release are all releases. Since something happened, it would be better to settle the matter earlier.
But no matter how to release people, it can't be handled casually.Otherwise, let the Portuguese hold the handle, and there may be troubles in the future.
"Everyone, prepare first, and make it clean later."
Shao Tianhu had already planned for this, one is not to reveal his identity, and the other is not to let the other party know where he is being held.As for what the Portuguese will guess afterwards, as long as there is no real evidence, there is no need to worry about the other party being able to ask the office for a crime.
Everyone covered their heads with prepared black scarves, only their eyes were exposed.
Someone brought a bunch of short sticks and distributed them to everyone.Although the guys locked inside have their hands handcuffed behind their backs, it would be troublesome if they struggled hard.Prepare the guys first, if there are dishonest ones, they will be served with sticks.
After everyone was ready, they opened the iron door of the stone house where the Portuguese was imprisoned.
When they were captured in the morning, they were originally covered with black cloth hoods to hide their sight, but these people had already helped each other get the hoods off.As soon as the door opened, they all looked towards the door in unison.
These Portuguese men had been locked up all day without a drop of water, and they were all under high tension. At this time, they were all sitting staggered against the wall.The two arms can only maintain the posture behind the back, and they have long been numb, so there is no strength to struggle.
Shao Tianhu reached out and grabbed one person, squeezed his cheek hard, stuffed a cloth into his mouth, put the headgear on him again, then pushed him out of the room and handed him over to someone outside.
When someone was about to stand up and resist, a stick was already taken on his shoulder, and he sat down again screaming.
Before the person who was captured could understand the situation, he was thrown face down on the ground by several people, and the shackles were removed from his hands.Before he had time to move his arms, his wrists were tied with ropes again, and then even his feet were tied together with ropes.
The shackles were standard equipment, and if they were allowed to go back in shackles, it would become evidence, so before they were released, the shackles had to be replaced.
After tying him up, someone carried him onto a freight carriage parked in the warehouse.And so on, until the dozen or so people who were captured were all loaded into the car, and then transported out of the warehouse in the dark.
