Due to He Zhenban's identity and her influence in Shanghai, the reform government and the Japanese were also very concerned about this matter.
Therefore, under the combined pressure of these people, the Concession Patrol Office did not dare to show any negligence. On the third day after Shen Cheng's murder, he quickly passed a verdict on the murder of He Zhenban.
In court, Shen Cheng also always insisted that he killed the man in anger because his dignity was insulted.
Because the witnesses and physical evidence were very complete, and the murderer was very cooperative, the case was heard very quickly.
In the end, Shen Cheng was sentenced to death and executed immediately.
But this was beyond Li Wei's expectation. For a moment, he really didn't know what Shen Cheng was thinking. But for now, although the plan exceeded his expectations, the result looked good. of.
Because except for those traitors who cared about the Japanese and some figures in the Nanjing Reform Government, they secretly received orders from the Japanese, so they always wanted to lead public opinion to the side of the Kuomintang.
But for this kind of rumored affair, ordinary people don't care whether the murderer is a Kuomintang or a Japanese, and now that the witnesses and physical evidence are gathered, the murderer is also detained in the patrol room, and everyone has admitted that he killed the person out of anger. .
In addition, Shen Cheng is a native of Shanghai, and many neighbors and friends know him where he lives, so no matter what these conspiracy theorists say, no one believes it, even if If you say a few more words, everyone will stare at you and make you panic.
After all, you are working so hard to help the Japanese, what are your intentions?
After being sentenced, Shen Cheng still did not change his story or retract his confession, so this move made the Japanese very angry, so the Japanese secretly made arrangements, and Shen Cheng was soon sent to the gallows. .
Before he walked to the gallows, he also saw Zou Xianren in the crowd, but at this time he just smiled softly, and then walked to the gallows fearlessly.
The main reason why he did not act according to the plan Zou Xianren told him was that when Zou Xianren found him, he asked Zou Xianren a question.
Is He Zhenban a traitor?
The main reason why he asked Zou Xianren this question was because although He Zhenban said that he had joined the reform government and was preparing to serve as the minister of culture of the reform government, this kind of thing was not something that a small person like him could know. That's why he asked Zou Xianren like this.
Regarding this question, Zou Xianren immediately nodded.
It was precisely because of this that Shen Chengcai agreed without thinking.
Zou Xianren then told Shen Cheng: The reason why this matter was handed over to him was mainly because he was innocent and because this matter could not affect anyone or have any contact with other people.
Therefore, Shen Chengcai did not follow Zou Xianren's plan, but followed his own ideas.
Of course, the reason why he didn't follow the plan Zou Xianren told him was not because he thought the plan wouldn't work.
But in his opinion, if he followed that plan, although he might be alive in the end, it would probably not achieve the effect Zou Xianren wanted.
It was precisely because of this that he decided to use his own death to do this, so that there would be no recurrence of this matter.
Even if this method will make him die, even if he is only twenty-two years old this year, which is the age when he is in his prime.
However, although he is young, he is also a person with ideas, so once he decides something, there will be no changes.
Therefore, when he was in the patrol room, some people also found him, either with good intentions or with false intentions.
He himself also understood that if he followed what these people said, he would definitely be able to buy a certain amount of time, and in this way, he might continue to live.
But he didn't want He Zhenban's death to have anything to do with anyone else.
Especially when some people working as lobbyists for the Japanese appeared, he became even more determined in his thinking.
There must be a certain reason why he did this.
When he was a child, his parents were killed by a group of robbers, and then he and his brother depended on each other. However, his brother disappeared six years ago, so he has been begging alone on the beach in Shanghai these years.
So it is well known that he is an orphan.
But only he knew how his parents and brother died.
When he was very young, their family also lived a very happy life, but one day, several drunk Japanese broke into their home, and after his parents realized something was wrong, they took him and
The elder brother locked him in the closet and told them not to come out no matter what sound they heard.
So the two brothers saw with their own eyes that their mother was defiled by a group of Japanese beasts, and their father and others were killed by the Japanese because of their resistance. Afterwards, the Japanese did not let their mother go and killed her as well.
Because those Japanese were all drunk, they left directly after finishing talking, and the two brothers were able to escape.
At that time, the Japanese were very powerful in Shanghai and were very domineering, so his brother told him afterwards that he could not say that it was done by the Japanese, because if he told the truth, not only would they not be able to take revenge, but they might also be punished.
The Japanese killed him secretly. In that case, his parents' death would have been in vain.
So in the end, his parents' death was characterized as a home invasion and robbery, and then they killed his parents.
Six years ago, during the Battle of Shanghai in 1932, everyone was afraid to go out because of the war, but there was no food at home, so he and his brother were hungry for several days.
There was really no other way, so my brother took him and risked his life to go out to find food.
Finally they found something to eat, but on the way home, they encountered the Japanese, and those Japanese beasts also enjoyed killing people.
So in order to save him, his brother hid him in a corner, and then lured the Japanese away. In the end, he watched helplessly as his brother died under the gun of the Japanese.
No one except him knew about these things, so he had been living in great pain all these years.
He wanted to take revenge, but he never found a chance, so when Zou Xianren found him, he agreed to Zou Xianren without hesitation. Although he didn't know the meaning of doing so, he could kill the traitors and make the Japanese free of charge.
It was comfortable and he had no regrets.
That's why Shen Cheng made such a choice.
"Mom, Dad, brother, I'm here to see you. I've been living alone all these years, so hard, so hard!"
Shen Cheng thought quietly in his heart, and then walked to the gallows calmly. At this moment, he could finally stop suffering any more!
