"This is my second month in this most prosperous metropolis in the Far East. This is a magical city that I cannot describe in words."
"Before coming to the Far East, I studied the history of Shanghai. Most of this city was already occupied by the Japanese."
"Peter accompanied me on my travels in the Japanese-occupied areas. He told me that it used to be called Huajie. Thanks to Peter's help, he would tell me that this is Nanshi, this is Zhabei, this is Hongkou, this is Pudong, this is
It's Yangshupu... At the checkpoint leading to the concession in these places, you can see barbed wire fences and Japanese soldiers with bayonets. They lead ferocious big wolfdogs and stare eagerly at every Chinese who passes the checkpoint. I saw
Some men and women will be kidnapped while passing through checkpoints, and Pete told me with a sad face that those people may be missing forever."
"Today I came to the French Concession, which is a piece of land occupied by the French in Shanghai. The bustling scene here is amazing. It is hard to imagine that the surrounding areas of the concession are occupied areas."
"Peter told me that the concession was surrounded by Japanese-occupied areas and was like an isolated island. I think this metaphor is very appropriate."
"Unlike the somewhat bleak scene in the Japanese-occupied areas I experienced, the concession is very prosperous.
The streets are bustling with traffic, lined with shops, restaurants and bars.
The cultural entertainment here is also very rich, including cinemas, theaters, dance halls, casinos, etc., attracting all kinds of people.
Peter told me that more than one million people were squeezed into this small area, which is an incredible number.
He also told me in a proud tone that celebrities, rich people, entertainers, literati, etc. have also emerged here, creating many sensational events and legendary stories.
Fashion, art, literature, etc. have also reached a peak. Peter proudly said that here, Shanghai still leads the trend of the entire China and even Asia.
It is worth mentioning that Peter would particularly emphasize that the concession belongs to China and is only temporarily concessioned to the French, British, Americans, and Italians. I think he seems to be particularly concerned about the fact that he is standing on Chinese soil.
"
"Today, a terrible thing happened outside a teahouse in the French Concession - I may have been targeted by a notorious criminal gang."
"I was holding a camera to take pictures of the crowd in front of a food stall. A man suddenly bumped into me. He almost knocked me down. Fortunately, Peter caught me, but the camera in my hand had no such luck. The camera never stopped.
My hand fell off and fell directly to the ground..."
Jennifer Eriver put down the pen in her hand and took a sip of the cocoa. Her memory returned to the moment of the accident during the day.
…
Jennifer Erivo looked at the man who looked panicked and hurriedly apologized to her. She was a little dumbfounded.
The accident came so suddenly that she seemed a little confused.
"My camera." Jennifer finally exclaimed, and she quickly went to pick up the camera that must have been broken.
"Take the little red guy." Peter caught the perpetrator, "Tell me to walk blindly?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see it, I'm sorry." Luo Yannian kept cupping his hands and bowing to apologize.
"Is it okay to just apologize?" Peter said angrily, "Pay up!"
"I will compensate! I will compensate!" Luo Yannian said quickly.
"You pay! Can you afford it?" Peter looked the man up and down, "Do you know how much this thing costs?"
Luo Yannian rolled his eyes, then looked at the far end, ready to break free and run away.
His sneaky expression was caught in Peter's eyes. Peter was already on guard. He grabbed the perpetrator's clothes tightly. At the same time, Peter followed the perpetrator's gaze and saw the patrolman in the distance. He immediately waved.
Shouting loudly, "Patrol, patrol, there is trouble here."
As if he was worried that the patrol would ignore her and not take her seriously, Peter grabbed Luo Yannian's clothes, pulled her over, then pointed at Jennifer Erivo beside him and shouted, "American, Miss America, her camera is broken."
"
Sure enough, when he heard Peter shouting like this, the patrolman who had just looked over but didn't seem to be planning to do anything started to run over at this moment.
At this moment, Liu Guyan and his team rushed over. He said to Peter, who was grabbing Mr. C, "We are undercover detectives from the patrol room. This man is entrusted to us."
Peter looked at these people doubtfully. At this moment, he felt the perpetrator he had caught struggling, and heard the man say in a cheerful tone, "Third brother, save me."
Peter was startled, and then he immediately realized that these people were in the same group. If the perpetrator he caught was not an idiot and started talking nonsense in a hurry, he almost really believed that these guys were plainclothes detectives.
Head.
When Liu Guyan heard 'Mr. C' speak like this, his expression changed, and he knew something was wrong.
Sure enough, then he saw the guy who grabbed 'Mr.
Hurry, catch them quickly."
…
From the window on the third floor, Cheng Qianfan saw all this.
When faced with being rounded up by the enemy, Comrade Lu Weilin did not panic. Instead, he came up with the idea of "surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao" in the flash of lightning.
Cheng Qianfan recognized the camera in the hands of the foreign woman. It was a German Voigtlander double-lens reflex camera, which was very valuable.
Foreign woman.
A priceless camera.
Comrade Lu Weilin's choice of "touch porcelain" target is very reasonable.
Comrade Lu Weilin is indeed quite resourceful.
Moreover, Lu Weilin chose to seek escape in this way. This strange combination also gave him, the deputy chief inspector of the Central Patrol Room, the opportunity to intervene in the matter.
However, now is not the time to intervene. Cheng Qianfan is waiting. He is waiting for the two patrol officers to arrive at the scene of the incident.
Before that, Cheng Qianfan was most worried that Comrade Lu Weilin would be directly kidnapped by the enemy. In that case, he would have no time to do anything.
Then Cheng Qianfan was surprised to see this scene:
I don’t know what Lu Weilin said, but the man who grabbed Lu Weilin’s clothes suddenly shouted excitedly at the patrol officer, and identified Lu Weilin as an accomplice of that group of people.
A smile appeared on Cheng Qianfan's lips. He could probably guess what method Comrade Lu Weilin had adopted.
In his heart, Cheng Qianfan marveled at the wit of Comrade "Lu Weilin".
This is a very experienced comrade who is calm in times of crisis.
Since the betrayal of the revolution by "Ling Ming", the Shanghai Red Party has suffered a devastating blow. Since then, the Shanghai Red Party has been rebuilt, destroyed, rebuilt, and destroyed again in a repeated cycle. Many comrades have sacrificed in this way, and their sacrifices have been numerous.
Because of the lack of experience in struggle, the enemy has not given our comrades the opportunity to progress, grow and accumulate experience. This can be said to be an almost unsolvable proposition.
Therefore, in the eyes of Cheng Qianfan, an "old comrade" of Special Kosovo, Comrade Lu Weilin's performance was a surprise.
The more this happened, the more reluctant he was to let such an outstanding comrade fall into the hands of the enemy.
…
"What's wrong?" Sakamoto Yoshino asked, noticing the smile on the corner of his friend's mouth.
"This man is unlucky." Cheng Qianfan pointed to Lu Weilin downstairs, who was being grabbed by his clothes. "He may not be able to afford the Voigtlander double reflex camera."
Sakamoto Yoshino took a look at the perpetrator's clothes and nodded, "I really can't afford to pay compensation."
He also owns a Voigtlander twin-lens reflex camera, so he knows the price of this German camera. It seems that the man in ordinary clothes can afford it.
"What do that group of people do?" Sakamoto Yoshino asked, pointing to several men in suits who seemed to be preparing to rob someone.
"Huh?" Cheng Qianfan let out a light sigh, and then he laughed out loud, "Turns out he is a little jerk."
He took a puff of the cigarette and exhaled the smoke lightly, "And he is a stupid little brat."
"What?" Sakamoto Yoshino asked.
"That person probably didn't bump into the camera accidentally. He bumped into it on purpose and then grabbed the camera." Cheng Qianfan pointed down and said, "It's just that the little jerk was too stupid and didn't grab the camera. Instead, he took it away."
The camera is broken."
He pointed at the group of men in suits, "Those guys should be in the same group as the perpetrators. I suspect that they pretended to be patrolling and wanted to use the opportunity of taking the man away to rescue the stupid thief."
"It should be like this." Sakamoto Yoshino nodded, "I thought I heard the man calling them a group just now."
"Really? I didn't hear it." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and cast his eyes on the bulging-chested foreign woman.
When Sakamoto Yoshino saw this, he couldn't help but laugh.
This friend of his is greedy for money, lustful, and extremely vulgar. However, it is precisely Kentaro Miyazaki who is his good friend.
"This is your jurisdiction, right?" Sakamoto Yoshino pointed at the messy situation below and said, "Mr. Cheng, I think you should go down and deal with it."
At this moment, the following has become a mess:
Several men in suits seemed to want to take Lu Weilin away before the police officers came over, but Lu Weilin, who was being grabbed by his clothes, accidentally fell to the ground. When he fell to the ground, he swept his legs and pulled him away.
The two enemies were shoveled to the ground.
Then he tried to get up and run away, but he ran into the arms of the foreign woman's Chinese companion and was hugged tightly by him.
Other men in suits hurried over to grab the man. At this moment, the policeman also arrived. The two men blew whistles in their mouths to call for reinforcements and waved the copper-headed batons in their hands, beating the men in suits and screaming.
"You dare to cause trouble on my territory, you are tired of life." Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly, "Sakamoto-kun, why don't you sit here for a while, or go down together to watch the excitement."
He was applauding Comrade Lu Weilin's wonderful performance in his heart. The current messy situation, as well as the previous series of causes and consequences, in a sense, even if he takes action at this moment, he can minimize the possible consequences.
Suspect——
He was completely forced to take action.
"Let's go down together." Sakamoto Yoshino said.
He is very interested in the status of his friend Kentaro Miyazaki's "Cheng Qianfan". It is rare to encounter this famous "Mr. Cheng" from the French Concession. Naturally, he will not miss the opportunity to observe and observe. These will become his future novels.
material.
…
Private room on the second floor of Chunfengdeyi Building, window.
"Bag ducks down!" Chikitaharaji looked at the chaotic scene downstairs and couldn't help but cursed angrily.
‘Mr. C’ appeared and was successfully locked.
Then all that's left is to arrest.
Chikitaharaji was at ease about the arrest. With a seven-person arrest team outflanking him from all directions, there shouldn't be any problem in catching an unsuspecting Red Party suspect.
However, at this moment, what should have been a smooth arrest turned into such a chaotic situation downstairs, which made Chibeihara very angry.
This 'Mr. C' is cunning.
Qianbei Yuanji naturally saw clearly and understood what was going on:
'Mr. C' was alertly aware of the crisis. He deliberately bumped into the white woman and successfully knocked the camera from the woman's hand, thus causing trouble and subsequently creating such a chaotic situation.
It is precisely because of this that in Chikitaharaji's mind, he has increased the importance he attaches to this 'Mr. C'.
Such a cunning ‘Mr. C’ is obviously a proven veteran of the Red Party——
This should be a big fish, a bigger fish than he had imagined before.
Qian Kitaharaji held the window sill with both hands and stared downwards. Although the chaotic scene made him angry, he was still confident in successfully arresting 'Mr. C'.
It was at this time that Chikitaharaji saw Kentaro Miyazaki and Nagayuki Sakamoto's youngest son walking downstairs together. The two of them walked towards the messy incident site, guarded by several bodyguards.
Qianbei Yuanji's expression changed...
…
Looking at the messy situation, Li Hao glanced at Brother Fan and the little Japanese Sakamoto Yoshino next to Brother Fan, Li Hao's eyes flickered.
"Brother Fan." Hou Pingliang came over, carrying candied roasted chestnuts in a brown paper bag in his hand.
The aroma of chestnuts suddenly filled the air.
"What's going on?" Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice with a gloomy face.
"It looks like the bastard was trying to grab the camera, but he was too stupid and missed." Hou Pingliang had just inquired about the situation and had first-hand information, so he immediately reported, "The bastard was caught by the victim.
These guys pretended to be plainclothes officers from our police station and tried to rescue people, but they were discovered."
"It's almost as I guessed." Cheng Qianfan turned to Sakamoto Yoshino next to him and said, with a hint of pride in his tone.
Sakamoto Yoshino smiled and gave a thumbs up to his friend.
"Mr. Cheng."
"Mr. Cheng!"
When two patrol officers saw Mr. Cheng arriving, they quickly came over to salute Mr. Cheng.
"Is the situation what the little monkey said?" Cheng Qianfan asked, he needed to confirm again.
"Yes, Mr. Cheng." said a patrolman, "The situation is exactly what Brother Monkey said."
Cheng Qianfan stepped forward, and as he walked over, his men held guns and used the black muzzles to control the disgruntled man in the suit.
Then, Cheng Qianfan grabbed Lu Weilin's hair, ignored the man's cries of pain, and picked him up, "Hey, do you know where this place is? Are you here to do a show?"
As he said that, he slapped Comrade Lu Weilin directly, "Tell me, what do you do?"
Lu Weilin seemed to be stunned and frightened by this slap. This stupid 'robber' actually confessed directly:
He said that he was a good citizen, but he couldn't help himself, and it was Jiang Mulezi's people who forced him to work.
