Chapter 099 The Political Department of the French Concession


"Where are they?" Cheng Qianfan asked casually.
The snow has stopped and it has melted.
The weather is getting colder.
He held a copper soup pot in his hand, which was smooth and round, small and exquisite. He ate hot water and held it in the palm of his hand, making his whole body warm.
The soup is made by hand, with very particular sealing and firmness. From pouring blanks to welding and grinding, there are dozens of processes. The soup is made of hard material, very durable, and exquisite in skills.
The Tang Pozi in the hands of Commander Xiao Cheng is extremely exquisite. It is one of the gifts from a fly-by friend who gave him a small pass. In fact, it is a pair of Tang Pozi, each of whom he and Bai Ruolan are one.
It is said to be the ancestral object of a wealthy family who passed on poetry and paintings.
With the current market price, even if the President Xiao Cheng earns 150 yuan a month, it will take half a year to afford this pair of soup girls. (PS2)
...
"According to the scheduled plan, we were arranged at the No. 3 stronghold." Li Hao said...
Cheng Qianfan nodded, he flipped his right hand and placed the back of his right hand on Tang Pozi to warm it, squinting his eyes comfortably.
The No. 3 stronghold is an ordinary building located north of the Telas Die Road in the French Concession and south of Yongjia Road.
This is a haunted house.
In the 23rd year of the Republic of China, a shooting occurred in this room.
At that time, the newspapers had reported extensively.
"Jingbao" even vivid descriptions:
The tenant is a man surnamed Liu, about forty years old, and is quite peaceful.
On this day, he was sitting on a rattan chair and translating Russian books.
There was a man who looked like a bodyguard, sitting on a recliner near the door, basking in the sun comfortably.
At that time, a young man wearing a waiter in the Western restaurant came to the door and pretended to deliver food. While speaking, he suddenly approached and quietly cut off the bodyguard's throat with a blade.
He then broke into the room and fired the man surnamed Liu with a short browning gun. All three shots hit him in the head, and the man died on the spot.
Later, this man calmly deceived another bodyguard who returned from abroad and killed it with a dagger, leaving.
The Investigation and Inspection Team of the Law Office studied the letters found in the room of the deceased and found out that the deceased was the Red Party’s “anyway”, and the person who was aware of the Red Party’s Special Section Red Team.
Three men died in a house, all of whom died of misfortune, and their deaths were miserable.
This house became a well-known haunted house in Shanghai.
House prices have been falling continuously.
Later, the owner secretly sold the house. After that, it seemed that he had changed hands several times. Now he was rented to a family that was sagged in his purse, but he could not live in the pavilion and could not bear the pain.
These people are brave and are not afraid of haunted houses, are afraid of living in poor places, and lose face.
Although it has been four years, the surrounding citizens are still quite concerned. When walking at night, they try to avoid this place.
For spy organizations, such a house is indeed more suitable as an activity base or a safe house.
...
"Didn't attract the attention of the neighbors around you?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"No, after the Liu Shanhao case, everyone said that the house was haunted and had heavy yin energy. Even in broad daylight, if there is nothing urgent, try to walk around as much as possible." Li Hao said.
The Jingbao, which started with the love news, gave the name "Liu Shan Oyster Case". Because the tenant's surname is Liu, it is said that this person eats three oysters a day and sings every night, hence his name - Liu Shan Oyster.
Cheng Qianfan nodded and stroked Tang Pozi with both hands.
The Liu Shanhao case is recorded in the internal archives of the Central Special Section as "eliminating the traitor Liu Mouzun 1219 Jia Chen".
Liu Mouzun is a traitor's name.
1219 is the date of action.
A, Class A archive.
Chen means Chenzhou.
Cheng Qianfan asked a few more questions, but then said nothing. The little Taoist priest was cautious in doing things and was awakened by others. He was still more at ease.
...
"Is there any new situation in Lou Lianxiang?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"No." Li Hao shook his head, "Loulianxiang has been staying in the apartment on Father Jin Road, and has not gone out, but..."
"But what?"
"The little monkey went to find Ajuan, the maid from Lou Lianxiang." Li Hao said with a smile, "He invited Ajuan to eat live beads, but Ajuan doesn't like it."
When Cheng Qianfan heard this, he smiled and shook his head.
Hou Pingliang is from Nanjing and has loved eating live beads since he was a child. This is to share his favorite things with Ajuan. Unfortunately, Ajuan doesn't seem to appreciate it.
"Is there any trace of Ruan Zhiyuan?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"No, except for the little monkey calling Ajuan out, no one else went to Lou Lianxiang's apartment to live in." Li Hao said.
"Does Lou Lianxiang have any special behavior?" Cheng Qianfan thought for a while and asked.
"There was no strange move." Li Hao said, but when he said this, he seemed a little hesitant.
...
"What's wrong?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"There is a place where I'm not sure if it's a strange move." Li Hao said, "Join Xiang told Ajuan to go out and buy some newspapers."
As he said that, he scratched his head, "Brother Fan, because we don't know about Lou Lianxiang's living habits, we still don't know whether Lou Lianxiang's daily lifestyle is a normal lifestyle or an unusual and strange behavior."
Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly, then nodded.
Haozi is right.
It is really hard to say whether there is any problem with Lou Lianxiang's arrangement to sell newspapers.
Few women read newspapers, but Loulianxiang is a singer in the Cabaret restaurant. It is also possible that she likes to read newspapers when she eats breakfast.
However, Cheng Qianfan vaguely remembered that Hou Pingliang once mentioned that Lou Lianxiangxie sleeps in.
It was always a bit strange to ask Ajuan to come out to buy newspapers so early this time.
"Please keep an eye on the garbage thrown out of Lou Lianxiang's home." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "especially these newspapers, as long as Lou Lianxiang's home is discarded, you must find them all and compare them carefully to see if there are any abnormalities."
"I understand." Li Hao nodded, "Don't worry, Brother Fan, there will be no shortage of paper in Lou Lianxiang's house."
...
No. 22 Xuehuali Road, Central Police Station.
As soon as Cheng Qianfan's car arrived at the police station, he saw that there was a busy life in the yard and the entrance of the capture hall.
Plainclothes Inspector Zhao Shuli and Inspector Yuan Kaizhou cursed and rushed out hurriedly, cursing and preparing to lead the team to set off.
"Inspector Zhao, Brother Yuan, what happened?" Cheng Qianfan asked, poking his head out of the back seat of the car.
"What happened to Xi'aixian's thoughts." Yuan Kaizhou said calmly and quietly, "A murder occurred in Marishal Hao's family, and a gun was fired."
"Who did it?" Cheng Qianfan's face changed slightly, "It's not Jiang Mule again, right?"
Yuan Kaizhou frowned slightly, then his eyes turned and said, "I can't say it well, go to the scene first and then talk about it."
He didn't think of Jiang Muzi in this matter at first, but Cheng Qianfan reminded him that if the case is dangerous or cannot be found out, it would be Jiang Muzi.
As a man who has contracted many vicious cases in Shanghai, Jiang Mule has the right to take on this major case.
Zhao Shuli also smiled and nodded to Commander Xiao Cheng and led the team to leave.
...
Cheng Qianfan was trapped in thinking.
Shuai Hao is a secret joke that everyone calls.
This person is an old Beiyang warlord and one of the powerful generals under the direct warlord Sun Chuanfang. Although he has already stepped down as a concubine, he still has some influence in Shanghai.
In addition, there is an extremely critical point. The case occurred in Hao Mansion in Xi'an Idea. This street is full of celebrities, and murder cases occurred, with bad impact.
In the French Concession, there are several streets that are key areas for the protection of the police station.
The concession authorities have listed these key protected areas as Class A residential area and Class B residential area.
Especially in Fuxi's jurisdiction, most of them are Class A and Class B residential residential areas, where most of the prominent residential buildings of the Kuomintang are concentrated here.
Among them is the Changkaishen Mansion, No. 9, Jiaer Ai Road.
No. 110 Qiqi Road is Mrs. Chang’s private mansion.
No. 145 Qiqi Road is Song Guojiu Mansion.
No. 381-383, Xi'ansi Road is Dean Kong's mansion.
There is Wang Baihai Mansion on Lado Road and Fululi Road.
No. 10 Baojian Road is Chen Wei Mansion, etc.
Every time, shootings and murders occur in these Class A residential areas and Class B residential areas will cause shocks from the police stations and even the concession authorities.
...
One day in the early summer of the 23rd year of the Republic of China, about the morning after breakfast, the Political Department of the French Concession Police Office received a report from an agent on duty at the Kong Mansion on Xixian Eis Road: gunfire sounds were heard in the Kong Mansion, and a car then transported the injured person away.
Afterwards, the Political Department returned to Kong Mansion and asked further, but Kong Mansion ignored him.
So the General Administration of Police Station sent Xi Neng, the squad leader of the Political Department, and the interpreter Xiu Gushen, to lead a team to the Kong Mansion to investigate.
However, Dean Kong Young Master Kong Lingkan led people to guard the gate and prevented the political department from entering.
Afterwards, Xiu Gushen asked the five uniformed policemen on duty outside the door and learned that the car was transported out of the car from Kong Mansion and had been shot and killed.
Because it was related to human life, Xiu Gushen immediately called the General Administration of Police Station to ask for instructions and report.
The General Administration of Police Station immediately sent two armored vehicles and more than 30 reinforcements to surround Kong Mansion.
Xiu Gongshen was both harsh and asked Kong Lingkan to open the door within ten minutes, and issued a formal notice to warn Kong Lingkan: "It is related to a legal murder case. If it is not done as appropriate, you will enter by force, and all consequences will be yourselves."
In this way, Kong Lingkan had to open the door in desperation.
After investigation, the deceased was a car driver of Kong Mansion. The murderer was a young bodyguard of Kong Mansion. The two were suspected to have an ambiguous relationship with Miss Kong Er.
The two started fighting because of jealousy. The bodyguard killed the driver with a pistol. At this time, the body had been secretly transported to the Kong family villa.
Xiu Gushen led the team and obtained physical evidence such as warheads and pistols on the spot. He also forced the bodyguard of Kong Mansion to sign and seal it, using this as evidence.
Then he personally led a team to a villa outside Kongjia on Hongqiao Road, took photos of the body and blood-stained cars to the case, and transported the body to the cold storage of the corpse of the police hospital for the escape route of the road, waiting for forensic examination.
A few days later, President Kong sent his trusted secretary of the Central Bank to negotiate with the French Concession authorities to settle the case. Xiu Gushen decisively came out again to help both sides find a way to resolve the matter:
In order to ensure the face of the Kong family, the police station did not announce the situation.
The family of the deceased was paid for the pension of the Kong family, with about 25,000 silver dollars.
The murderer was handled by the Shanghai Second Special District Court, and he was sentenced to five years in prison for negligence.
It is also this incident that made Xi Neng, the squad leader of the Political Department of the Political Department of the French Concession, and even the senior management of the French Concession, understand and recognize Xiu Gongshen’s ability:
In the early stage, this person faced important members of the National Government, and was neither humble nor arrogant. He put the laws and interests of the concession as the best, which made the rebellious young master of the Kong family bow his head.
Also, be cautious in handling things, orderly, have laws to follow, and have laws to follow, which makes people unable to find out.
Later, Xiu Gongshen was flexible in his work and ran around, so that both sides could solve the problem successfully.
To be precise, all three parties were very satisfied, and the family of the deceased also secretly thanked him, saying that the interpreter helped the deceased seek justice.
Xiu Gushen later specifically told Cheng Qianfan about this matter, not only the elders' showing off their hearts to the younger generations, but also because this matter is actually extremely difficult to deal with. However, Xiu Gushen himself handled it very well and was even perfect.
He almost offended the Kong family's son, but it is said that the rebellious Kong family's son gave a thumbs up and praised the translation agency for doing things.
Even President Kong, it is said that he also called Xiu Gushen in person to express his condolences.
The French Concession authorities were very satisfied with the handling of this matter, believing that Xiu Gongshen was good at it and had a lot of connections with the government, so he highly recognized him.
Xiu Gushen used his proud works to teach Cheng Qianfan that if you want to gain a foothold in the French Concession and Shanghai, you must be able to use your brain and deal with it flexibly. However, at the same time, you must firmly adhere to one principle. No matter which side you are biased towards, you must always be careful and must not make people feel that you are on the fence. This is a principle of flexibility but not losing the bottom line.
...
Cheng Qianfan stood next to the car. He lit a cigarette, took a sip, held the cigarette in his mouth, held the soup in his hand, and looked at the people who were cleaning the snow in the yard with interest.
About a few minutes later, Zhou Ru passed by the door of the police room with her little Kun bag on her shoulder.
Cheng Qianfan noticed that Zhou Ru's shoulder bag today was straddled on her right shoulder.
This is a signal that the Chongqing government has secretly contacted the French Concession authorities and the Political Department to start rescuing Zheng Weilong.
He spitted the cigarette in his mouth on the ground, held the soup, and greeted everyone during the police's compliments and chats, and entered the arrest hall.
"Little monkey, go and change the boiled water for me." Cheng Qianfan handed the Tang Pozi to Hou Pingliang.
"Be careful, little monkey, you can't afford to compensate if you break it." Lu Jiu joked.
The little monkey laughed, but did not dare to be careless and took it carefully. The soup girl is said to be an antique object. If it is broken, the little monkey will not be able to afford it.
Cheng Qianfan did not go directly to the office, and he chatted with his subordinates in the capture hall.
This is a way for him to obtain intelligence. His subordinates have many interactions. Sometimes, an inadvertent word contains intelligence or business opportunities.
Then, he entered his office, locked his briefcase into the safe, and took a bottle of red wine to the office of the Political Department on the second floor.
...
"My friend, do you take the red wine you stole from me as a gift?" Pete showed a look of surprise and then contempt, spread his hands and said with some annoyance.
"No, no, no." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "Peter, how can we use the word "steal" in our friendship?"
"Do you think you are Kong Yiji?" Peter glanced at Cheng Qianfan and said sarcastically, "Kong Yiji is 'stealing books cannot be considered stealing'. What is your reason? Drinkers can't steal wine cannot be considered stealing?"
