However, he was slightly taken aback when he saw that the person who came was He Yuzhu.

Only then did he notice that He Yuzhu was holding a formidable weapon in his hand. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a Type 56 assault rifle!

It's important to understand that such advanced and powerful firearms are typically only issued to elite units on the front lines, carrying out the most challenging missions.

However, at this very moment, a Type 56 submachine gun has appeared here, and in the bustling and vibrant city of Hong Kong.

What's even more shocking is that the gunman was able to sneak into his room without anyone noticing, which is simply unbelievable!

He Yuzhu's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly regained his composure and spoke immediately:

"Section Chief Pan, don't be nervous, we're on the same side!"

Upon hearing this, the man called Section Chief Pan frowned and asked suspiciously, "Who exactly are you?" Despite the fact that his weapon was relatively outdated, he remained fearless, his voice deep and powerful.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu quickly shook the token he was holding tightly a few times and emphasized again, "I told you, it really is one of us."

At this moment, Pan Qun finally noticed what He Yuzhu was holding. He had been so focused on the dark muzzle of the submachine gun that he had completely overlooked this crucial token.

Realizing this, he couldn't help but feel annoyed, but at the same time, he slowly calmed down and put the pistol away.

He Yuzhu stepped forward and carefully handed the token to Pan Qun, indicating that he should verify its authenticity.

After a thorough inspection and confirmation that everything was correct, Pan Qun's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.

Just as he was about to reach out to turn on the light, He Yuzhu stopped him with lightning speed.

He Yuzhu lowered his voice and said:

"There are enemies watching us from the other side, so we absolutely mustn't turn on the lights at night."

"What? There's surveillance? How come I haven't noticed it at all?"

Pan Qun was shocked to hear this, his face filled with disbelief.

"They are hidden very cleverly on the mountain behind the cemetery. It would be difficult to find them if you didn't know beforehand."

As He Yuzhu spoke, he pointed out the exact location to Pan Qun in detail.

Upon hearing this, Pan Qun couldn't help but gasp, feeling both admiration and surprise at He Yuzhu's keen insight.

"I went through a lot of trouble to search every single house I could see in the area!"

However, disappointingly, no matter how hard they searched, they found not a single useful clue or sign.

Who could have predicted that the surveillance post would be hidden on the edge of the cemetery?

Looking back, he had actually considered going to the cemetery to investigate.

After all, it was a huge cemetery, densely packed together, quite a sight.

At the time, he did go there in person and thoroughly inspect it, but the result was the same as elsewhere: he found nothing.

Therefore, he didn't even dare to think about the mountain peaks, let alone guess that there would be a sentry post there.

At this moment, He Yuzhu took a deep breath and continued:

"Not only that, I also found out everything about Jamie, who was hiding behind the scenes, and his three henchmen, and told them all about it."

Upon hearing this, the other person's eyes widened, and they asked incredulously:

"This... you actually found out all of this?"

He Yuzhu nodded slightly and answered confidently:

“That’s right, and I even followed the clues and uncovered important information about the traitor.”

Then, he calmly recounted the identities of the two traitors and the relevant circumstances.

After hearing these words, Pan Qun was completely stunned. It took him a while to come back to his senses, and he muttered to himself in astonishment:

"It was actually the two of them? I never expected that!"

As the conversation deepened, Pan Qun's face once again showed utter shock when he learned that all the key evidence had been perfectly preserved on a single roll of film. Unable to contain his curiosity, he quickly pressed for more details.

After understanding the whole story, their gazes toward He Yuzhu became extremely complex, containing both admiration and an indescribable sense of awe.

As a key figure in protecting the newspaper, I bear the heavy responsibility of safeguarding the newspaper's security and uncovering the lurking enemy. However, after a long period of painstaking searching and investigation, I still could not find out where the deeply hidden lurker was hiding.

Every clue that seems close to the truth ultimately vanishes, leaving one feeling frustrated and anxious.

In utter desperation, I knew I could not delay any longer, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

So, with a heavy heart, I truthfully reported the current difficult situation to my superiors, my heart filled with guilt and self-blame.

To my utter surprise, just when I was at my wit's end, that man named He Yuzhu solved the entire case so quickly!

He seemed to possess a pair of all-seeing eyes, easily uncovering the carefully woven disguise of the infiltrators.

At this moment, a question kept swirling in my mind: "How should this matter be handled properly? Especially since it involves Jamie and his gang... Perhaps I have the ability to make them disappear completely without leaving a trace."

But is this really the right approach? Are there better solutions?

These thoughts swirled in Pan Qun's mind like a tangled mess, leaving him unable to make a decision.

Chapter 434 Anna

Pan Qun shook his head slightly and said with a solemn expression:

"You, after all, haven't been involved in this clandestine front, so you don't understand the ins and outs. People whose identities have already been exposed aren't actually that scary."

If you rashly kill them, it will inevitably alert their superiors, who will then send more people to carry out the defection mission.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu suddenly realized that his previous idea had serious flaws.

Although I have never personally experienced such a fierce and brutal struggle, I have watched a lot of spy dramas in the past, so I have accumulated some relevant knowledge.

As Pan Qun said, when one side knows that the other side is a spy, but the other side has not yet realized that it has been exposed, the situation is still within a controllable range.

If we act impulsively and eliminate all these people now, their superiors will surely send out new replacements quickly.

This would not only make it difficult to detect the new envoy's whereabouts, but would also make the situation more complicated and difficult to handle. It would be better to remain still for the time being, pretend to be completely unaware, and then carry out targeted planning and strategizing.

For example, one could cleverly utilize these people's channels to deliberately transmit false intelligence to the enemy, inducing them to make incorrect judgments and decisions.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but blurt out:

"So, does that mean we don't need to alert them at all?"

That's right. Now that we know exactly who they are, the subsequent handling becomes relatively simple.

As long as we act cautiously and ensure we don't arouse their suspicion, they shouldn't need to try to turn others against us.

After all, in such a sensitive situation, any slight movement could trigger unexpected consequences.

"Okay, if there are any further needs or situations, just contact me anytime. My location is not far across the street."

As He Yuzhu spoke, he openly revealed his true identity to the other party and left his contact information.

Then, with a flash, he flew out of the window like a nimble bird and disappeared into the vast night.

Watching He Yuzhu's departing figure, Pan Qun couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Now that I finally understand the background of these two traitors, I feel much more at ease.

At least for the time being, we don't have to worry about this matter so much anymore.

The next morning, the tranquility was broken by a rapid telephone ring.

He Yuzhu hurriedly answered the phone, and the news from the other end of the line both surprised and delighted him.

Surprisingly, Du Guanghe's wife has pulled through this ordeal! Although she is still somewhat weak, she is now out of danger.

However, a full recovery will likely require some more time and patience. As for Du Weixiang, she is temporarily unable to return to Hong Kong for this reason.

Hearing this, a huge weight was finally lifted from He Yuzhu's shoulders. He said with deep emotion:

"Oh, that's great! This important matter is finally completed successfully. From now on, you can take charge of the company. I'm planning to go out for a stroll and relax."

"Oh? Does that mean the surveillance of those people is over? Will it not continue?" Du Weifang asked curiously.

He Yuzhu waved his hand and answered easily:

"No need, we don't need to worry about these things. I have some personal matters to take care of, so I'll head out now."

"Hmph, look at how rushed you are, are you in such a hurry to go on a date with some young and pretty girl?" Du Weifang guessed half-jokingly.

However, she never imagined that Pan Qun's trip was not to meet some young girl, but a long-lost old lover...

Previously, after He Yuzhu successfully rescued Elena's father, the father and daughter found it difficult to continue living peacefully, whether in the north or in the capital.

So, the kind-hearted He Yuzhu generously gave them a large sum of money and suggested that they go to Hong Kong to seek new opportunities and hope.

Since then, time has flown by. For some time now, He Yuzhu has been busy dealing with the newspaper's complicated affairs and has had no time to visit Elena.

However, now that the newspaper's affairs have been resolved one by one, his greatest concern is to see Elena as soon as possible.

It is worth mentioning that Elena had become pregnant as early as April of 1955 or 1956, and in early 1957, she gave birth to a lovely baby girl named Anna.

Unfortunately, Elena had already arrived in Hong Kong by then, which is why Ho Yu-chu has never been able to see his beloved daughter in person.

Nevertheless, the two sides maintained close correspondence, thus preserving their deep emotional bond.

Moreover, He Yuzhu was fortunate enough to see a photo of his daughter Anna. Every time he saw that innocent and smiling face, an indescribable warmth and happiness would well up in his heart.

At this moment, the sun was shining brightly and a gentle breeze was blowing. He Yuzhu personally drove the vehicle, searching along the route according to the detailed address he had obtained earlier.
