Chapter 403 Eliminating the Suspicion of the Telecommunications Department
The conference room on the second floor of Building 76 was thoroughly searched by four secret agents but no eavesdropping devices were found.
"All of you go out and guard the door. Don't let anyone in!" Tanaka Daiei said to the four agents.
"Hi!"
Tanaka Daiei sat in the main seat in the conference room, with Ding Mo and Li Qun sitting on both sides.
Ding Mo spoke first, "According to regulations, within Room 76, the Telecommunications Department is not allowed to monitor internal personnel without my permission and authorization. Furthermore, only the Telecommunications Department has the ability to use monitoring flashlights, as other departments and personnel do not have such equipment!"
Upon hearing this, Tanaka Daiei said, "Director Ding, your statement is too arbitrary. I disagree! There was a time when the office of Military Police Commander Sato was monitored. After our investigation, we found that the bug was not from the Military Police Headquarters, but was a bug from a piece of monitoring equipment stolen earlier by the Special High Technology Bureau!"
"I just memorized the models of the bugs I found in your two offices. When I get back, I'll immediately send someone to investigate the source of these two bugs!"
"You should also investigate Telecommunications Section 76 to see if the monitoring equipment in the Telecommunications Section is still there, who is in charge, and whether there are any suspects!"
"But the investigation can't be conducted in a high-profile manner. It can only be conducted in private and secretly. Don't use the eavesdropping device for now. If necessary, you can use it to spread false information!"
"Yes, Mr. Tanaka!"
After seeing off Tanaka Daiei, Ding Mo and Li Qun looked at each other.
Ding Mo spoke first, "Brother Li, why don't you go to the Telecommunications Department first?"
"That's exactly what I meant!"
"Let's go. It's been a while since we moved here from No. 67 Daxi Road, and we haven't gone to the Telecommunications Department to check on the work yet!" Ding Mo said as he walked towards the Telecommunications Department.
Telecommunications Section Chief Xu Dalong was very surprised that Ding Mo and Li Qun came at the same time, and immediately went over to greet them.
"Director Ding, Deputy Director Li, why are you two here together today?"
Ding Mo looked at Xu Dalong and asked, "Why? Can't we come over?"
"No, no, all of us in the Telecommunications Department welcome the two directors to come to the Telecommunications Department to inspect and guide our work!" Xu Dalong said quickly.
Li Qun raised his hand and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense and let's go take a look around the Telecommunications Department!"
"Y-yes, please!"
Several people first came to the telecommunications room, which was where the radio operators worked. There was a row of long tables against the wall on each side, with radio transmitters on the long tables. The staff members sat here wearing headphones and worked.
Telecommunications Room 2 is the department that manages incoming and outgoing calls. All incoming and outgoing calls must pass through here.
If you are at the telephone exchange, all calls are automatically dialed, with a dedicated switch to transfer lines, and no human intervention is required. However, because spy agencies like No. 76 belong to confidential departments, except for internal calls, all incoming and outgoing calls need to be manually transferred.
Telecommunications Room 3 is the monitoring room, which is responsible for both internal monitoring and external searching and locating of radio stations of unknown origin. It is equipped with special monitoring instruments and radio monitoring equipment as well as supporting vehicles and technicians.
At this time, because there was no internal monitoring mission, several technicians on duty in Telecommunications Room 3 were smoking, drinking tea and chatting.
Seeing the technicians' expressions, Xu Dalong was furious and immediately scolded them, "What are you doing? Don't you have anything to do? Assholes, stand up! Director Ding and Deputy Director Li are here to inspect our work!"
Several technicians immediately dropped their cigarette butts, stood up quickly, straightened their clothes and stood up.
Seeing Ding Mo and Li Qun walk in, they all greeted them: "Hello, Director Ding, Hello, Deputy Director Li!"
Ding Mo and Li Qun walked into Telecommunications Room 3 with their hands behind their backs, and Xu Dalong followed them with a nod and a bow.
Seeing several instruments placed on the long table against the wall, Ding Mo pointed at the instruments and asked, "What are these instruments?"
Xu Dalong quickly waved to a technician and asked him to come forward and introduce himself.
The technician immediately said, "Director Ding, Deputy Director Li, this one is a recorder, and this one over here is a monitoring device. These two devices are connected by wires. The bug transmits the sound it receives via electronic signals to the monitoring device, which then converts the electronic signals into the original sound. You see, these three are headphone jacks. Plug the headphone cable into these holes, and you can hear the sound through the headphones!"
"This monitoring device is equipped with three eavesdropping devices, and all three can work simultaneously, so there are three headphone jacks here!"
"The monitoring device can also transmit the restored sound to a tape recorder. When the tape recorder is working, it can record the sound on tape. This tape recorder can also record the sound from three eavesdropping devices, but you need to put three tapes in it at the same time!"
Ding Mo and Li Qun nodded repeatedly after listening to this. They didn't know much about this new equipment, but after the technician's introduction, they roughly understood the working principles of the two instruments.
Li Qun asked, "The people in charge of these two instruments are here, right?"
"Yes, yes, it's all here!"
Xu Dalong explained, "Because of the relevant regulations, we cannot monitor internal personnel without your consent. So, apart from familiarizing themselves with these devices, there's not much else they can do. However, I've found some books on radio for them to study!"
"Well, that's great! By the way, where is the eavesdropping device that comes with this instrument?" Ding Mo asked.
Xu Dalong quickly pointed at a technician and said, "Go and get all the eavesdropping devices and show them to the two directors!"
"Yes!"
The technicians quickly brought three boxes and placed them on the table. Xu Dalong personally opened the boxes one by one for Ding Mo and Li Qun to see.
Ding Mo picked up a bug and looked at it, then turned and asked, "If I use other bugs, can they be used with this device?"
The technician replied: "It can only be done if they are produced by the same manufacturer, and we need to know the signal transmission frequency and power of the bug, so that we can search for the signal based on the signal transmission frequency and power of the bug!"
"How far can the eavesdropping device transmit its signal?" Ding Mo asked again.
The technician replied, "Our eavesdropping device can only transmit signals up to 150 meters. Beyond that, the device won't be able to receive the signal!"
After coming out of the Telecommunications Department, Ding Mo asked Li Qun, "Brother Li, what do you think?"
Li Qun said: "From what we have learned, I think it is unlikely that the Telecommunications Department is monitoring us!"
Ding Mo nodded. "I think so too. If they are not from the Telecommunications Department, but from other departments, then the monitoring devices that are used with the two bugs should be nearby, because the monitoring devices must be within the signal range of the bugs to receive the signals!"
Li Qun's eyes narrowed. "I'll immediately arrange for someone to conduct a secret investigation of House 76 and the surrounding residential areas within a 150-meter radius!"
"Don't ignore suspicious vehicles on the street!" Ding Mo reminded.
