Even for comrades like Cheng Qianfan and Councilor Zhao who are both in a secret unit of the special party branch in the French Concession, everyone will have their own secrets. Due to various considerations, some situations do not need to be reported to comrades.
For example, regarding this assassination incident, Cheng Qianfan did not need to disclose it to Cardinal Zhao.
In fact, Cheng Qianfan had no intention of telling Comrade Abacus about this matter.
However, after learning that Cardinal Zhao had participated in the internal meeting on the 76th, Cheng Qianfan decided to selectively reveal something to Cardinal Zhao, because some subsequent operations may require the two of them to cooperate with each other.
"Great." Cardinal Zhao said happily, "Chen Mingchu, He Xingjian deserves to be killed!"
As he spoke, he shook his head and said regretfully, "It's a pity that Wang Iron Mu saved his life."
He did not ask Comrade Huo Miao about the details of the assassination. Since he was not notified of his participation before the operation, for the sake of confidentiality, he should not know more details afterwards.
"Why are you with Chen Mingchu and the others?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"I went to the west of Shanghai for something, and Chen Mingchu's car happened to be passing by. When he saw me, he stopped the car and invited me to dance at Paramount." Cardiff Zhao explained, "I heard from Chen Mingchu that Wang Tiemu, He Xingjian and others were involved, so I thought
I can take this opportunity to connect with those people..."
As he said that, Comrade Abacus smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect to meet him by chance."
"I originally wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Cao Yu." Cheng Qianfan also shook his head regretfully, "But I'm worried that leaving you behind after killing Cao Yu would be too abrupt, so I can only let that guy go."
"Indeed." Shu Li Zhao nodded, "Fortunately you didn't touch Cao Yu, otherwise my situation would have been more difficult."
Cardinal Zhao then told Cheng Qianfan that Li Cuiqun sent Hu Sishui to question him and Cao Yu.
"Do you think Li Cuiqun is suspicious of you?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately.
"It is impossible to say that there is no suspicion. Anyone who appears at the scene and survives by chance will be investigated routinely." Zhao Shuli thought for a while and said, "As for this matter specifically, I am not worried about them.
investigation.”
Cheng Qianfan nodded. He understood what Shuli Zhao meant. He was worried that the enemy's investigation might involve other things. This is what the underground lurkers are most worried about. They must try their best to avoid being suspected by the enemy, because once they enter
The enemy's suspicious sight will be very troublesome, because there is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
"Is the matter more troublesome?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Not really." Shu Li Zhao shook his head, "I have thought carefully about it. Because I have been out of contact with the organization for a long time, this can provide me with maximum protection. As long as there are no problems within our party branch, I should be safe.
of."
Cheng Qianfan nodded, and then he smiled bitterly, "You are fine, which to a certain extent helps that guy Cao Yu avoid suspicion."
As he said that, he sighed with regret, "If not, we can find a way to 'frame' that guy."
Hearing what Cheng Qianfan said, Councilor Zhao was also filled with regret, "I'm taking advantage of that guy."
"However, although Wang Tiemu was safe and sound at the time, his life is difficult now," he said.
"Li Cuiqun wants to put Wang Tiemu to death?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Wang Tiemu and Dingmu Tun are close, and Li Cuiqun is now seizing power, seeking to completely drive Dingmu Tun out of the secret service headquarters." Shuli Zhao said concisely and comprehensively.
Cheng Qianfan nodded and asked a key question, "Ma Tiantong, who is responsible for investigating the case, tell me about this person."
"Ma Tianzhu was born in Huangpu in the 29th year of Guangxu's reign. In his early years when he was in the Party Affairs Investigation Department, he edited the reactionary publication "Social News" together with Ding Mutun, Li Cuiqun and others." Cardiff Zhao said.
"When you said that, I got an impression." Cheng Qianfan nodded.
He was still impressed by this publication. This reactionary publication tried its best to confuse right and wrong and slandered red.
"Since Li Cuiqun chose Ma Tianzhen to investigate this matter, then, is this person from Li Cuiqun?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"It should be said that between Dingmutun and Li Cuiqun, Ma Tianzhu chose to be closer to Li Cuiqun." said Shuli Zhao.
Cheng Qianfan nodded. What Shuli Zhao said seemed to be the same as what he just said, but in fact it was not.
"Do you think Li Cuiqun will succeed?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
Although Wang Tiemu was not able to be directly eliminated this time, it would be a good result if the power struggle within the secret service headquarters could be used to prompt Li Cuiqun to eradicate his dissidents and get rid of Wang Tiemu.
"Ma Tianzhen should follow Li Cuiqun's will and find a way to establish Wang Ironmu's involvement in the case." Councilor Zhao said, "However, Dingmu Tun should try his best to protect Wang Ironmu."
He added, "If Wang Tiemu is really killed because of this incident, Dingmutun will not only completely lose power in the secret service headquarters, but also within Wang's puppet government, it will have a huge impact."
Cheng Qianfan fell into deep thought, wondering if he could make some use of this matter.
Whether it is to prompt Li Cuiqun to ruthlessly kill Wang Tiemu, or even if Wang Tiemu cannot be killed, he can still use this matter to expand the conflict between Li Cuiqun and Dingmu Tun. It is best for a more intense conflict to break out between the two parties, and finally
Well, mad dog bites mad dog.
"Do you need me to do anything?" Cardinal Zhao asked. He could naturally guess what Comrade Huo Miao was thinking.
"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head decisively, "The impact of this matter is not small. Both the Secret Service Headquarters and No. 76 will investigate it in detail."
He looked at Cardinal Zhao and said, "You are not suitable to participate."
"Then I will try my best to avoid suspicion. After all, I should avoid this kind of thing." Shu Li Zhao said immediately.
"That's right." Cheng Qianfan said, and then asked, "Do you think my senior Li can successfully drive Dingmu Tun out of Jisi Feier Road this time?"
"The success rate is very high." Zhao Shuli thought for a while and said.
"Well, regarding Wang Tiemu's matter, you have to avoid suspicion. This is in line with your usual style of dealing with things." Cheng Qianfan said, "However, in other matters, you can try your best to cooperate with Li Cuiqun and show that you are more friendly with Li Cuiqun.
A sense of closeness.”
"Okay." Shu Li Zhao nodded and said with a smile, "I understand what to do."
He was in a happy mood, not only because Chen Mingchu was eradicated and He Xingjian might also die from his injuries, but also because he could report to the organization, listen, and accept the organization's analysis and instructions when things happened. This was for this man who had been out of touch for a long time.
For comrades, this feeling of close connection with the organization is the happiest and most satisfying.
…
Cheng Qianfan met Chen Mingchu and He Xingjian on the last day of the 28th year of the Republic of China. Of course, what he saw were their bodies.
He Xingjian was sent to Fumin Hospital for rescue by the Japanese. Although he went through several days of rescue, he eventually died of his injuries.
It was precisely because of He Xingjian's death that Cheng Qianfan had the opportunity to see the bodies of He Xingjian and Chen Mingchu as the person in charge of the French Concession Patrol Office:
He Xingjian owns property in the French Concession and even applied for a household registration certificate for the French Concession.
When this person originally applied for the household registration certificate for the French Concession, he was still the deputy commander-in-chief of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army. This household registration certificate was used by He Xingjian when he sneaked into the French Concession.
Later, He Xingjian defected to the Japanese and became a traitor, but he still did not give up his household registration status in the French Concession.
This time, Cheng Qianfan was instructed by Sanbonjiro to use He Xingjian's household registration certificate as his registration certificate to get involved in the case on behalf of the patrol department.
"It's so miserable." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
Chen Mingchu's Tianling Cap was blown away.
He Xingjian was shot several times, and a scalpel was used during the rescue. At this time, his whole body was swollen like a slaughtered pig's head.
"Vice President Cheng, I've seen this corpse. Do you have any other regulations here? Tell them all." Ma Xiaoyi said with a smile.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at this person. Ma Xiaoyi was Ma Tianchun's younger brother. This person was very dissatisfied with the involvement of the French Concession Patrol Office in this case, and he had always been yin and yang with Cheng Qianfan.
"I want to meet the people involved in this case." Cheng Qianfan said calmly.
"Who does Vice President Cheng want to meet?"
"Cao Yu, Feng Guozhen..." Cheng Qianfan took out a piece of paper from his body and said as if checking a book of life and death, "There is also - Wang Tiemu."
"Impossible." Ma Xiaoyi flatly refused.
"Really not possible?" Cheng Qianfan looked at Ma Xiaoyi with a faint smile on his face.
"Absolutely impossible." Ma Xiaoyi sneered.
…
Half an hour later.
"Vice President Cheng, please." Ma Xiaoyi said almost through gritted teeth, with a slap mark on his face.
"Look, I said, it's okay." Cheng Qianfan patted Ma Xiaoyi on the shoulder, then laughed and entered the preferential treatment room at No. 76.
Looking at Cheng Qianfan's arrogant back, Ma Xiaoyi's face turned pale and he gritted his teeth.
"What? Not convinced?" The door opposite to the waiting room opened, Ma Tianchun walked out, glanced at his brother, signaled Ma Xiaoyi to come in, and then closed the door.
"Brother, the whole of Shanghai is now dominated by the Japanese." Ma Xiaoyi shouted, "We are holding the Japanese job, why are we afraid of what Cheng Qianfan will do?"
"Are you Japanese?" Ma Tianzhen looked at his brother with a strange look and asked.
"of course not."
"You also know that you are not Japanese!" Ma Tianzhong snorted coldly, "Believe it or not, if I hadn't slapped you, there would have been a floating corpse in the Huangpu River in a few days."
"He dares!" Ma Xiaoyi shouted.
"In today's Shanghai, apart from the Japanese, Cheng Qianfan dare not take action. If anyone else offends Cheng Qianfan, who can have good results?" Ma Tiantong said coldly.
As he spoke, he frowned and said, "No, even if they are Japanese, Cheng Qianfan would dare to attack them if he dares to do so."
He remembered the rumors about the Japanese named Naito Tsubasa who was not dealing with Cheng Qianfan and who later disappeared. It was the kind of disappearance where the body was never seen alive or dead.
"The Japanese... how dare he?" Ma Xiaoyi was really frightened.
In his eyes, the Locust Army is the master of Shanghai, no, the whole of China. Let alone the Locust Army, even ordinary Japanese ronin can do whatever they want in China.
"So, don't think that your brother, I have this skin and this gun on me." Ma Tiantong pointed to the uniform of the secret service headquarters on his body, and then pointed to the gun on his desk, and said, "Cheng Qianfan not only Someone has a gun, and the most important thing is, according to the information I know, brother, this person has a lot of influence on the Japanese side."
Ma Xiaoyi is so quiet.
"Also." Ma Tianzhong glared at his younger brother, "We are not serving the Japanese people's jobs, we are Mr. Wang's people."
"Is there any difference?" Ma Xiaoyi asked blankly, "Mr. Wang, don't you also want to listen to the Japanese...ah!"
Ma Tianzhen slapped his younger brother's right cheek again, "Just remember this second slap. Just understand some of the words..."
…
Li Cuiqun's office.
"Director, I still don't understand." Lu Changxin frowned and asked in confusion, "Why did you agree to allow Cheng Qianfan to meet Wang Tiemu?"
Wang Tiemu is now the key offender.
The most important thing is that he is very clear about Li Cuiqun's attitude towards the Mega Federation incident——
There is definitely something wrong with Wang Tiemu, or there must be something wrong.
However, when it comes to how to deal with Wang Tiemu, even people close to Li Cuiqun within No. 76 do not quite agree with getting rid of this person, which makes Li Cuiqun very dissatisfied.
Lu Changxin then gave Li Cuiqun an idea: to put Wang Ironmu under house arrest, not allowing anyone to visit him, and to minimize the news about this person. Then, when no one pays attention to Wang Ironmu, he can be fired at any time.
Therefore, he was quite surprised that Li Cuiqun actually agreed to Cheng Qianfan's request to meet with Wang Tiemu, the number one suspect in the "Mega Feng Association Assassination Incident".
"It's not Cheng Qianfan who wants to see Wang Ironmu." Li Cuiqun shook his head, "It's the Japanese who want to see Wang Ironmu."
"Cheng Qianfan is Japanese?" Lu Changxin was startled and said subconsciously. Then he was looked at by Li Cuiqun like he was a fool. Only then did he realize that he had misunderstood. He asked cautiously, "Cheng Qianfan has also taken refuge...
"
According to the information they had learned before, Cheng Qianfan had always been very close to the Japanese. However, this person did not seem to have fully surrendered to the Japanese.
"Maybe, maybe not." Li Cuiqun said thoughtfully, "But the Japanese obviously trust him very much."
He had received a call from Araki Harima before. On the phone, Araki ordered No. 76 to allow Cheng Qianfan to interview Wang Tiemu.
Although Li Cuiqun was angry, he had no choice but to agree.
…
Cheng Qianfan first looked at the furnishings in the room from the viewing hole.
There is a bed with a person lying on his back and covered with a blanket.
There is also a coffee table.
There are teapots and teacups on the coffee table.
There is also a plate of pastries, several boxes of cigarettes, and a match box.
spittoon.
The spittoon smelled bad.
The privileged room in the secret service headquarters is worthy of its name. At least Wang Tiemu should not have been treated harshly here.
This was his first face-to-face contact with the military commander's second most traitor to date.
He had met Wang Tiemu before, and he could be said to be a handsome man who could be called heroic and mighty.
However, at this moment, Wang Tiemu's face was haggard, his beard was unkempt, and he looked like he was out of his mind.
Hearing someone push the door open and come in, Wang Tiemu was lying on the bed with his back to the door. However, he did not turn around to look at the person. Instead, he snorted coldly and said, "I'll give you my back. If you want to kill me, just kill me."
It can be done.”
"Mr. Wang." The visitor chuckled, "You and I have no grievances, so why should I kill you?"
