Chapter 712 Chen Yang's Test
Shanghai, Agent No. 76 Headquarters.
"Mr. Sam, Ms. Mash, we are very sorry. We have tried our best, but we were unable to save Captain Walker. We only found his body."
In the morgue of Headquarters No. 76, Chen Yang brought Sam and Matthew from the American observation group to claim Walker's body.
"Please wait a moment, both of you." Walking to the door of the morgue, Chen Yang hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Sam, Ms. Mashu, Captain Walker was tortured and interrogated for a period of time before his death. His body may be a little scary."
"I hope you two can be mentally prepared before you go in."
Mashu and Sam looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
Chen Yang nodded to the guard guarding the morgue and asked him to open the door.
The guard also knew that Chen Yang's identity was extraordinary, so he quickly took the key and opened the door.
There were many corpses in the morgue. In the middle, a white shroud was covering a corpse. It was obviously Walker.
Several people walked up to the body, Sam tremblingly uncovered the white cloth on the body, and Mashu also held his breath.
"Walker..." Seeing Walker's scarred body under the white cloth, the two exclaimed at the same time.
At this time, Walker's eyes were closed and his body was covered with black and brown marks, which were obviously caused by being whipped.
"I'm sorry, both of you, please accept my condolences." Chen Yang said slowly, "We have tried our best, but it's a pity that the useful information you provided is too little."
"Mr. Chen, I understand." Before he could finish, Sam spoke up to stop Chen Yang from speaking any further.
"Mr. Sam, if there's anything else I can help you with, please feel free to ask."
Sam nodded slightly and said, "I hope to take Captain Walker's body back. I wonder if it is possible."
"Of course," Chen Yang said, "Please follow me, I have asked someone to prepare all the information. If you need it, you can take it away."
Office No. 76.
Chen Yang brought Sam and Mashu into the office, and Li Qun, Ding Cun and others who were waiting on the side hurried over to greet them.
"Thank you for your hard work." Sam said to everyone in not very standard Chinese: "Although we failed to save Captain Walker's life, we cannot deny your hard work over the past few days."
"On behalf of the observation group and the US Embassy, I would like to express my gratitude to you all."
Chen Yang handed the case file of Walker's kidnapping to Sam and said, "We are sorry that we couldn't help Captain Walker."
"Mr. Sam, here is a copy of the kidnapping case file. If the embassy still wants to investigate the truth behind Walker's death, I think we might be able to help a little."
Sam took the case and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen. I can't make a decision on behalf of the embassy, but I believe that the ambassador will not allow an American to die in a foreign country without knowing the reason."
Chen Yang nodded and said, "If Mr. Sam thinks it is necessary to investigate further, then we can also help."
"I'm not bragging, these people are all well-connected people in Shanghai. Investigating the case is a piece of cake for them."
"However, we must know some inside information. What is their purpose in kidnapping Captain Walker?"
Sam and Matthew were both stunned for a moment, but Sam recovered in an instant: "Mr. Chen, I don't quite understand what you mean?"
"Mr. Sam, we can be frank." Chen Yang said calmly: "Everyone here is an expert in intelligence work."
"They all agreed that the purpose of kidnapping a person is mostly for money or revenge."
"Mr. Walker has just arrived in Shanghai and he certainly won't make enemies with anyone. That means their purpose is most likely to gain benefits from Captain Walker."
"This benefit could be money or some confidential information."
"If you insist on not saying anything, we will have no direction to investigate, and naturally we will not be able to catch the real murderer of Captain Walker."
Sam's expression changed for a long time, and finally he shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen, I know your good intentions, but there are some things I cannot disclose to outsiders without authorization."
"If Mr. Walker's death was really caused by this incident, then the embassy will definitely take action."
"Sorry, we have to go back first."
After Sam finished speaking, he winked at Matthew, and the two said goodbye to everyone in the office, picked up the files, and hurriedly left the office.
"Minister, there is something wrong with these two people." Li Qun stepped forward and said, "They must know the inside story, but they just won't tell it."
"If they don't want to talk, there are ways to deal with it." Chen Yang said with a faint smile on his face: "Let someone keep an eye on these people in the observation group."
“I want to know their every move.”
Li Qun saluted and said, "I understand."
Shanghai, Embassy.
After Hunter finished reading the case file Sam brought back, a hint of fear appeared between his brows.
He was now very sure that the people who kidnapped Walker were not trying to find out about the so-called aircraft leasing agreement signed between Shancheng and the United States.
Instead, they wanted to find out when the gold that the Philippine government gave them to take back to the United States would arrive in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
This batch of gold contained 50 tons, 120 tons of silver, and 416 pieces of various cultural relics.
But it would not be shipped all at once. The whole plan was to send the gold to the United States in three batches.
The person in charge this time is Hunter, but I don’t know who will be in charge next time.
Although Walker is the head of this observation group, he is from the military, not Congress.
The gold transportation plan was an agreement between the Philippine government and Congress, and Walker was not aware of it.
"Davidson, it looks like we are in big trouble," Hunter put the case on the table and said to his secretary, "I suspect there is a problem with the confidentiality in the Philippines."
"Some people have heard that gold is being shipped to Shanghai."
"Has Mr. Quezon sent any information?"
Davidson said: "The team that escorted the gold this time was arranged by Mr. Quezon himself, and all the people are his confidants."
"Based on the current situation, the other party may know that the gold will be delivered to the United States by us, but they don't know the exact time when the gold will arrive in Shanghai."
"So, we actually have a chance to return home safely with this gold."
"Mr. Hunter, you should also be aware of Mr. Quezon's concerns. If General Mac hadn't pushed him too hard, he wouldn't have taken the risk of transporting the gold to China for handover."
Hearing Davidson's words, Hunter sighed heavily: "I can understand his approach, but I'm afraid it won't be so easy for us to transport the gold away."
Three chapters are finished, so I'll update them according to the previous schedule. Anyway, no matter when they are released, they still need to be reviewed...
