(A)today Wilhelm Canaris is the number one mystery man of the Nazi regime under Hitler.
Incorrect : From the stimulus above we cannot conclude that he was NUMBER ONE MYSTERY MAN............. hitler.

(B)in 1938, he made efforts to hinder Hitler from attacking Czechoslovakia and later he played an active role as a peace
maker.
Incorrect : Czechoslovakia attack is clearly out of scope

(C)one of the many contradictions he was forced to live with in order to stay in control of the Abwehr.
Correct : The premise shows two contradictory sides of Canaris... One - Protector of German Opposition, Two - Hunter of German Opposition. Hence this can follow the above stated premises.

(D)wherever he went, his Intelligence officers told him of an orgy of massacre.
Incorrect : Stories his officers told him is irrelevant here.

(E)the man behind the Nazi Abwehr spy network was a shrewd, brilliant spymaster.
Incorrect : There is no premise to conclude this. Eliminated !
