Chapter 218 Undercurrent surging (2)

Wu Ming didn't know that Zhang Xiaolin had to use his strength to solve two things in just two days:

First, he asked the Party Investigation Office and the Secret Service to fully investigate who was framed by him behind his back; second, he asked the Secretary-General of Hosokawa, who was directly under the Nankei Office of the Japanese Army Base Camp, to persuade the Consul General of Shanghai, Shishi Shizutaro, to express Zhang Xiaolin's attitude and would not investigate the incident of the Japanese ronin looting his own industries in the North and East Districts of the Public Concession, and asked the Japanese side to patiently wait for the investigation results.

The head of the Hosokawa is the spy leader who continued to instigate Zhang Xiaolin to surrender to Japan after Nagano Clerk was transferred from Shanghai. He knew very well that Zhang Xiaolin's pro-Japanese attitude and his huge influence in Shanghai, which helped the Japanese government and the army to control the largest city in the East. Therefore, he repeatedly explained to the Consul General, and contacted Japan again. He received strong support from General Nagano Clerk, the commander of the Japanese Joint Fleet in London, England. The Japanese side reluctantly agreed to give Zhang Xiaolin a chance, which made Zhang Xiaolin feel much more relaxed.

At this time, the Shanghai Beach had completely moved. The agents of the Investigation Office and the Secret Service, as well as tens of thousands of Qing Gang members, were frantically chasing suspicious figures that appeared in Shanghai Beach recently. The Luhua Palace Dance Hall suffered an unpredictable disaster. Although Du Yuesheng was the backstage, he was still forced to close the door. Fortunately, Shen Huiyan, who had disguised as a singer girl, had already been transferred, and all clues had been destroyed, so Zhang Xiaolin still found nothing to this day.

Zhang Xiaolin and others did not stop at the big dance floor, but went directly to the large private room of the arcade above. This private room has an independent small dance floor, and you can enter the small dance floor to dance at any time without having to queue up.

As several red dancers were arranged by the dancer's senior class to the private room, Zhang Xiaolin, who had finally been able to relax for two days, had a soft jade and warm fragrance in his arms, and his mood slowly calmed down.

After so many years of hard work in Shanghai, it was not in vain. Just wait for the truth to be found out and the real culprit was found. Then Zhang Xiaolin can continue to be his underground emperor in Shanghai. No matter who occupy Shanghai, he has to sell his face. As for the money lost this time, he can make money back through running a casino, brothel and selling opium, and he can recover his vitality in at most two years.

Fang Zhibin, who was sitting opposite Zhang Xiaolin, coughed lightly and raised the high-legged wine glass full of precious red wine: "Zhibin is here to honor, thank you for your kind hospitality." After that, he drank it all out and showed it to the bottom of the cup, winning a lot of cheers.

Among the three tycoons in Shanghai, Huang Jinrong likes to call himself "boss", Du Yuesheng likes to call himself "Mr.", and Zhang Xiaolin's name is the most interesting, and he likes to call himself "Master". Zhang Xiaolin has always compared himself to Zhang Zuolin. Coincidentally, Zhang Zuolin is also a bandit, and is really similar to Zhang Xiaolin. This not only shows Zhang Xiaolin's life ambitions, but also reflects Zhang Xiaolin's complete rogue nature.

"Ha ha"

Zhang Xiaolin was so happy that he raised the wine glass in his hand: "This time, it was all up to Brother Zhibin to help build a bridge. Xiaolin was able to reach an agreement with Brother Yunong. The Secret Service promised to do its best to find the real murderer... If the grievances can be washed away, Zhibin will be the first to do his best."

Just this morning, Zhang Xiaolin negotiated conditions with the Secret Service at the cost of 500,000 o'clock and helped to investigate the murderer. It would be better to find the behind-the-scenes instructions. It would be better to catch a few people at will, and it would be fine if it was not possible to just catch a few people to punish them. Just calm the anger of the Japanese. Zhang Xiaolin has been lying on Shanghai for more than 20 years and has seen many governors and governors. If it weren't for the bad luck now, and the relationship between the Secret Service behind Fang Zhibin, I'm afraid Zhang Xiaolin wouldn't have looked at him as the deputy chief of staff of the new Second Division.

"This time, the Secret Service and the Investigation Service jointly took action. I believe that the matter will be revealed soon, and the conflicts with Japan can be clarified... In the future, the Secret Service will work in Shanghai, and the Grand Marshal will help you." Fang Zhibin smiled and woke up the key to this cooperation, hoping that Zhang Xiaolin would not destroy the bridge across the river.

Zhang Xiaolin patted his chest and said, "That's natural. If you want to use Xiaolin in the future, please just open your mouth."

Zhang Xiaolin's unambiguous answer made Fang Zhibin very happy. He had not opened up the situation in Shanghai for many years, and his control of the concession's intelligence was far from comparable to that of the Qing Gang, which was a local snake. Unexpectedly, this time, he did not intend to plant willows, but instead achieved unexpected results. With Zhang Xiaolin's full support, the spy's tentacles in Shanghai will extend longer in the future, and the woven intelligence network will become more dense. This trip to Shanghai has finally achieved something.

The sitting next to the big dance floor downstairs where Wu Ming was, just facing the large private room on the second floor. Seeing Zhang Xiaolin and Fang Zhibin chatting and laughing, Wu Ming secretly thought:

"Is it because the Secret Service wants to intervene in this matter? With Dai Yunong's support, Zhang Xiaolin could not find a few scapegoats to escape from the crime. Moreover, the Japanese also knew Zhang Xiaolin's huge value. Once there was a step, they would definitely take it lightly. All our efforts before were vain...

Lu Kuiyuan also figured out the key and said ruthlessly: "My mother, these two guys are not good things... I think, let's do them together while the chaos is in order to avoid people surveillance us every day."

Wu Ming shook his head: "Not proper, inappropriate. Since Fang Zhibin was mixed with Zhang Xiaolin, I am afraid that the matter has attracted the attention of the Director of the Special Service Dai Yunong and even Chairman Jiang. At this time, the action will only make others turn their doubtful gazes to us..."

"The more we are, the less we can't be confused. We should follow the scheduled plan, otherwise we will definitely cause chaos if we act hastily.

This sudden change made Wu Ming much more cautious.

Although Shanghai has a vast territory, with the public concession, the French concession and the Chinese concession, and it is not difficult to hide it, if multiple parties work together, it is difficult to guarantee that those who are interested will not find themselves based on clues. After all, the food, drinking, defecation and urination of hundreds of people is not a small number. Although he has long made arrangements in Shanghai through the Maoliangwu Chamber of Commerce and the Quzhou Chamber of Commerce, there have been several institutions similar to military stations that have been established in the concession openly and secretly over the past year, but there are still huge unpredictable risks.

"We have to seize the time and act. The longer the time delays, the more unfavorable it is for us." After Wu Ming made up his mind, he no longer had the mood to continue his nostalgia and stood up to leave.

At this moment, a group of people came from afar, the leader was wearing a long gown, a small flat head, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a pair of wind-catching ears. It was Du Yuesheng, who was famous in Shanghai.

Wherever Du Yuesheng and his party went, passers-by saluted respectfully, and Du Yuesheng nodded one by one to show his head, giving him enough to the other party. From this, it can be seen that although Du Yuesheng is powerful in Shanghai, he is never arrogant and domineering.

Although Wu Ming wanted to meet this boss at the top of the Shanghai Beach rankings, it was obviously not the time. He immediately signaled to Chengyuan, Lu Kuiyuan and others, stopped aside and pretended to chat, preparing to wait for Du Yuesheng and his group to leave before leaving. Who would think that things were far from being as simple as he thought.

"Why did Commander Wu leave in a hurry when he saw Du coming? Could it be that Du blamed him for not receiving Zhou?" Du Yuesheng unexpectedly stood in front of Wu Ming and asked with a smile on his face.

Seeing that everyone had already named him, Wu Ming was embarrassed to pretend not to know him again, showing a look of flattery: "Oh, Wu Ming is an unknown young man with a low status. I don't know how Mr. Du recognized him... Mr. Du is a storied figure in Shanghai, and his affairs are busy. Wu is traveling through Shanghai on his official business. He goes shopping at night and sees the magnificent here. He wants to see the prosperity and luxury of Shanghai. Therefore, he comes in and sits for a while and really doesn't dare to disturb the big car."

Du Yuesheng smiled slightly and waved his hand and said, "Mr. Wu is so arrogant. Who doesn't know that Master Wu is the most popular person? This Paramount dance hall also has shares in me, Du, and Yuesheng can be at least half of the home here. Master Wu can visit Paramount, which is really brilliant. If I don't come to entertain you, others will think that I am arrogant and difficult to get close to you."

"Yuesheng's favorite time in his life is to make friends. Yuesheng has heard of the heroes in the army like Commander Wu for a long time. When he saw him today, he really deserves his reputation."

Du Yuesheng has a kind attitude and speaks calmly like a breeze and drizzle, giving people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.

"Since Mr. Du has invited me warmly, Wu will not agree, I am afraid that others will say that I am not... The guest will follow the host, Mr. Du, please," Wu Ming answered happily, with a relaxed expression.

Du Yuesheng's eyes showed a look of surprise. After looking at Wu Ming for a while, he smiled and nodded, pointed his right hand and bowed, saying, "Teacher Wu, please."

"Mr. Du is so arrogant. Just call me Wu Ming or Xiao Wu."

Wu Ming did not pretentiously after making polite tricks. He climbed the arcade with Du Yuesheng and headed towards a luxurious private room opposite the stage. Who would have thought that Zhang Xiaolin took the initiative to greet him halfway through.

When Du Yuesheng saw Zhang Xiaolin, he exchanged greetings for a while, and then asked Wu Ming for his opinion: "Why do you guys join us?"

"It is Wu Ming's honor to be able to meet two of the three Shanghai tycoons at the same time. How dare you refuse to obey? Please?" Wu Ming said with a smile.

"Okay, happy"

Du Yuesheng praised and took Wu Ming's hand into the private room. Seeing the dancers in the private room with half-clear clothes and slutty breasts, Du Yuesheng frowned and signaled to retreat. When the dancers saw Du Yuesheng's gesture, they dared not go against his wishes, so they immediately sorted out their clothes and left with Kunbao.

The guest and host took the seat, Sun Chengyuan, Lu Kuiyuan and several bodyguards were arranged by Du Yuesheng to sit at the table behind Wu Ming.

"Master, I didn't expect you to be here too. I didn't know before, please forgive me for being rude."

Fang Zhibin felt uncomfortable when he saw Wu Ming. Now that the dancers have left, Yingge Yanyu, who has less relaxed the atmosphere, has to take the initiative to stand up and apologize.

Wu Ming smiled and waved his hand and said, "Those who don't know are not guilty, you don't know that I am below... Everyone comes out to relax their body and mind, there is no need to be so restrained."

Through the introduction of Du Yuesheng and Fang Zhibin, Zhang Xiaolin already knew Wu Ming's identity. Although he looked down on this little teacher, he was in a difficult situation and was unwilling to cause trouble. Therefore, he also acted as a respectful attitude of a virtuous and incompetent man, and got along well with each other.
