Chapter 127 Nanjing Rite (please ask for the moon)
"Cheng, your work is excellent." Silva put down the letter in his hand, "Ellen praised your serious work and thanked you for your hard work."
"This is a matter that belongs to my subordinates." Cheng Qianfan said with a humble expression.
The Secret Service originally planned to add some information to the letter, ordering Ellen Campbell to write that he had fallen into the water or other more dangerous things, and was finally rescued by the brave police officer Cheng Qianfan.
Campbell and Silva have a good relationship. Cheng Qianfan rescued Silva's friend, which will naturally deepen Silva's affection for Cheng Qianfan.
It was Cheng Qianfan himself who read the letter and suggested that this paragraph be deleted.
In his opinion, normal letters and normal 'ceremonial' thanks are enough.
Adding this "thrilling story" will add many variables.
Silva may be grateful to him for saving Campbell, or he may blame Cheng Qianfan for his poor protection: Why did Mr. Campbell fall into the water?
Or because of this matter, Silva would later call Campbell to inquire with concern.
Until Campbell shuts up completely, it would be best to avoid contact with other French people, especially Silva.
Campbell is the biggest hidden danger for Cheng Qianfan's trip to Hangzhou.
Cheng Qianfan did not ask about Campbell's outcome. The hidden dangers he could see would not be missed by the top brass of the Secret Service.
Cheng Qianfan didn't have much sympathy for Campbell's ending. Campbell was not a law-abiding French businessman.
In the 34th year of the Republic of China, a drunken Campbell drove a car and hit and killed a mother and daughter who were working the night shift at a cotton mill late at night.
This incident was later covered up by the concession authorities and nothing happened.
Closer to home, Cheng Qianfan does not think that he needs to perform too much with Silva at this stage.
Haste makes waste.
Silva and Xiu Gongshen have a good relationship.
Cheng Qianfan and Pete have a close working relationship.
This is enough for Cheng Qianfan.
…
Nanjing.
Rare good weather, clear skies.
In the morning, a middle-aged man in a long robe and mandarin jacket walked quickly into a theater.
"Mr. Zheng, you are here. Your friend in T-shaped room has been waiting for a long time."
Mr. Zheng nodded politely towards the waiter in the theater, "Thank you."
Listening to the waiter and companion behind him whispering, Mr. Zheng is indeed a very knowledgeable and cultural man, he is so polite, and a smile appeared on Mr. Zheng's lips.
"Old Zheng, why are you so late today?" There were three people in the private room, and one of them, a man wearing glasses, said, "Hurry up, Mu Guiying will take charge, it will start in a moment."
"Sorry, sorry, I have a lot of things to do today, so I'm late." Mr. Zheng cupped his hands.
The man wearing glasses winked, and a young man in a long gown next to him walked over and closed the door, then stood behind the door on guard.
"Suzuki-kun, how is the situation?" the man wearing glasses asked eagerly.
Mr. Zheng glanced at another man in a suit and frowned.
"This is Onizuka-kun from Inoue Mansion."
Suzuki nodded with a serious expression, "You shouldn't wear a suit, you should wear Chinese clothes."
Although there are also people in suits and leather shoes who come to the theater to listen to the opera, but relatively speaking, they are still relatively rare.
Although wearing a suit will not arouse suspicion, it is naturally best to do as the Romans do and not attract attention.
"Onizuka has learned a lesson." Onizuka bowed and apologized.
"Nanjing is the capital of China, so don't underestimate China's agents," Suzuki said.
"It's my responsibility, I didn't notice." The man wearing glasses also apologized with a serious expression.
…
"Endo-kun and others are being held in Laohuqiao Prison." Suzuki whispered, "The information we have received shows that they will be escorted from Laohuqiao Prison tomorrow morning and escorted by a military truck to the suburban execution ground for execution."
"How's the military card's guard strength?"
"The normal configuration is a squad of China Army soldiers. The soldiers are equipped with medium-sized rifles and a light machine gun. In addition, there should be agents from the China Secret Service accompanying them." Suzuki pondered for a moment, "With five people in a car, it is very possible
There are two cars, that is, ten agents."
The man wearing glasses gloomily shook his head, "It's extremely difficult."
The main force in the rescue operation was the personnel of the Inoue Mansion, and there were twelve of them. The Japanese special agencies in Nanjing only cooperated, and at most five operators were able to participate in the rescue.
The basic configuration of a squad of the Central China Army is ten soldiers, plus agents from the Secret Service, which is an escort force of twenty people.
Seventeen imperial personnel attacked twenty Chinese. Generally speaking, there was no problem. However, they did not have heavy weapons.
The most important thing is that this is the capital of the Chinese government. Once gunshots are fired, Chinese troops will join the battle within half an hour at most.
"Suzuki-kun, Nagano-kun." Onizuka bowed ninety degrees, "Onizuka's team came to Nanjing with the determination to destroy the empire. We can die, but Endo-kun must be rescued."
Suzuki and Nagano were shocked when they felt Onitsuka's determination to die.
They had previously looked down upon the Inoue Mansion, which was not an official secret service agency of the empire.
However, at this moment, the spirit of death shown by Onizuka team made them change this contemptuous attitude.
…
Central patrol room.
The atmosphere in the third patrol's prison hall was a bit strange.
The French Concession Political Office took over the murder case of Saburo Miyamoto, and the patrol officers were originally in a happy mood.
However, He Guan's possible involvement in the case cast a shadow over the Third Inspection Team.
To be fair, although He Guan is Jin Kemu's nephew, he has a background and is a bit of a playboy.
However, after getting along with him for a long time, everyone felt that He Guan was not that difficult to get along with, and he was not the kind of dandy who didn't understand anything. His performance at work could not be said to be excellent, at least he was quite decent, and he did not hold everyone back.
Sometimes, when Jin Kemu gets angry and curses, He Guan will come out to make jokes and help everyone out.
Therefore, the third patrol's impression of He Guan was not bad.
What's more, this case was originally investigated by Ma Yishou, the deputy inspector of the third patrol. After repeated investigations, he was finally traced to one of his own. This is really unjustifiable.
"Xiao Cheng is back." Someone saw Cheng Qianfan coming from a distance and exclaimed.
Everyone looked at Ma Yishou who was drinking tea with interest.
I was busy thinking about what it had to do, but I forgot about the dispute between Xiao Cheng and Ma Tou for the position of inspector.
Da Toulu and the others winked, trying to find an excuse to avoid it temporarily.
Ma Yishou is a veteran patrolman and is the deputy inspector himself.
Xiao Cheng is now prosperous. He has a translator behind him. Deputy Inspector Jin also treats him differently. It is even said that Mr. Qin and even Mr. Silva admire Xiao Cheng:
There are vague rumors that Xiao Cheng's trip to Hangzhou is called for business, but in fact it is to handle private matters for Mr. Silva.
Deputy Inspector Ma and Xiao Cheng are both big guys.
I can't afford to offend him, I can't afford to offend him, just stay away.
