"Brother Fan, take care of your people." Xiu Yuman finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Cheng Qianfan coming out.
"Idiot!" Cheng Qianfan glared at several of his subordinates, "Don't you know Sister Yuman?"
As he said that, he went up and kicked one of his men, "It's a shame you can stop others from entering at the door of their house."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and motioned for his men to disperse.
Then, Cheng Qianfan looked at Tang Hao, who was a little embarrassed and uneasy.
Comrade Tang Hao, whose name I have admired for a long time, finally meets him.
…
"Mr. Cheng, I have long admired you." Tang Hao took the initiative to extend his hand and shook hands with Cheng Qianfan enthusiastically.
"Editor Tang, I know you." Cheng Qianfan smiled slightly, "I also read the East Asia Daily."
"I welcome Mr. Cheng's corrections and encouragement." Tang Hao said happily.
With that said, he looked at Xiu Yuman and said, "It's getting late, so I won't bother you."
Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly and watched Tang Hao drive away, his eyes flickering.
"What are you looking at?" Xiu Yuman asked.
"Sister Yuman, is this my future brother-in-law?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a smile.
"Just him?" Xiu Yuman snorted disdainfully, then glared at Cheng Qianfan, "What are you talking about?"
With that said, she ignored Cheng Qianfan and stomped into the hall. The sound of her high heels on the floor was very clear in the quiet night.
Cheng Qianfan smiled, lit a cigarette, and stood in the yard smoking by himself.
Did Sister Yuman just come back from a secret meeting with Comrade Tang Hao?
…
Tang Hao is reviewing himself.
He secretly warned himself that if he needed to send Comrade Xiu Yuman home next time, he must clear his body of possible suspicious items in advance.
Just now, Cheng Qianfan's bodyguard saw his vehicle approaching and immediately became alert. Someone was coming to search, which startled Tang Hao.
He has a shotgun hidden in his car, which could cause him trouble.
In addition, the party documents in Comrade Xiu Yuman's bag are also very dangerous.
Tang Hao reflected in his heart and felt that he was still negligent. Although he had just reminded Xiu Yuman not to be careless towards Cheng Qianfan, in fact, he himself was subconsciously negligent.
Because Xiu Yuman is Cheng Qianfan's sister, both he and Xiu Yuman subconsciously felt that Xiu Yuman was safe and would not be searched or questioned.
But what is an unexpected situation?
It was an unexpected situation just now. If Cheng Qianfan came down a little late, Cheng Qianfan's bodyguards might have been ready to search.
Even if Xiu Yuman would not be searched, it would be very bad if weapons were found in the vehicle.
Subsequently, Tang Hao's expression became more serious, and he began to realize more deeply how dangerous it was for the Red Party and the anti-Japanese cause to have a counterrevolutionary like Cheng Qianfan in the French Concession who hated the Reds and was close to the Japanese.
It would be great if the Teko Red Team were still here.
…
This reunion dinner on New Year's Day is not luxurious, but lively.
The dishes include bacon, chicken, river delicacies and the like, as well as seasonal vegetables, home-style stir-fried, and then there is a hot pot around the stove to dispel the air conditioning in this cold day.
Of course, there are also some dishes Bai Ruolan brought from home.
"This duck is good." He Xuelin gave Xiaobao a piece of duck meat. "It tastes similar to what I had before in Nanjing."
"This was sent by a special car from our friends in Nanjing," Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
"There are also some delicious seasonal dishes." Cheng Qianfan said to Bai Ruolan, "I will arrange for someone to deliver some tomorrow."
"I know." Bai Ruolan nodded and said.
"Oh, no, no need." The teacher's wife waved her hands repeatedly, "Your teacher often has entertainment, and your sister Yuman is also like a wild rabbit, often homeless. How can I eat alone?"
As she said that, she gave her daughter a meaningful look.
"Brother Fan, your friend is quite energetic." Xiu Yuman saw that his mother was pointing the finger at him, so he quickly grabbed a piece of duck meat and changed the subject.
In the chaos of war, ducks and other New Year goods are not the most valuable. Cars and a safe and smooth journey are the most important.
"Commander of the Nanjing Garrison Division Liming Zuan." Cheng Qianfan said, "a friend I met when I went to Nanjing last time."
As he said that, he glanced at Xiu Yuman.
Whether it is the value of the information revealed in this sentence, or the fact that Li Mingzhan, a powerful general in Nanjing, and 'Brother Fan's relationship in Nanjing' itself are important information to Xiu Yuman.
As expected, Xiu Yuman's heart moved, and she secretly remembered this matter in her heart.
"Is the leg injury completely healed?" He Xuelin asked with concern.
"Don't worry, Master, I'm fine now," Cheng Qianfan said.
As he spoke, he spat out a mouthful of fish bones and said, "If you can run and jump, it won't be a problem for me to go into the water to catch fish and shrimps, not to mention how happy you will be."
"Begging for a beating." He Xuelin glared at Cheng Qianfan, "Don't take my words seriously. You must be careful next time."
"I know."
…
When we returned to Raffaello's residence, it was already a quarter past nine in the evening.
Cheng Qianfan rubbed his eyebrows.
Lightly smoked.
"I asked you not to drink so much." Bai Ruolan took the warm towel from Xiaolizi's hand and put it directly on her husband's forehead.
"Not much in the evening. I just had a few drinks with my friends in the morning, and I couldn't stand it." Cheng Qianfan said.
"You drank the wine yourself, don't blame others." Bai Ruolan said angrily.
After saying that, she asked, "You also saw the person who sent Sister Yuman back today. How is that person?"
"Master asked you to ask?" Cheng Qianfan looked up at his wife and asked with a smile.
"Sister Yuman has been staying in the boudoir for a long time. Master, can you not be anxious?" Bai Ruolan said, "You haven't said anything yet, what about that person?"
"Tang Hao, the deputy editor-in-chief of the East Asia Daily, is quite talented." Cheng Qianfan said. As he spoke, he sat up, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the sobering tea. "However, he is several years older than Sister Yuman.
"
"It doesn't matter if you are older, but what's most important is your character?" Bai Ruolan asked.
"He is a person who understands current affairs." Cheng Qianfan chuckled and said, "The boss of "East Asia Daily" is Japanese."
Bai Ruolan understood instantly after hearing this.
"What are you worrying about? I think we are just ordinary friends." Cheng Qianfan yawned and said angrily, "The most important thing is that I look at Sister Yuman's posture, and I guess she is not as good as the one on the bridge.
Deputy Editor-in-Chief Tang."
"Master's wife is worried here, so I'll help you ask." Bai Ruolan muttered.
"Okay, you can take Xiao Zhizhi to rest early." Cheng Qianfan stood up and took Mrs. Tang from Bai Ruolan's hand.
"I'm going to the study, I still have some official documents to deal with," he said.
??????55.??????
"Don't stay up too late." Bai Ruolan warned.
"I know."
…
During the Spring Festival of 1940, the flavor of the New Year in the concession seemed stronger than ever before.
Moreover, it seems that during the Chinese New Year, the days go by faster and faster.
The newspaper said that the days are like a year, and during the Spring Festival, it seems that the suffering also has a touch of false sweetness.
On the early morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it snowed.
The snowflakes were not big or dense, they just floated in the air gently, and finally fell reluctantly, staining the beach in Shanghai with a light layer of whiteness.
In the middle of the morning, I don’t know what kind of stimulation God received. Amidst the complaints of the refugees in the French Concession, the snowflakes suddenly became denser. This attracted more residents to come out to buy firewood and briquettes despite the snowflakes.
Cheng Qianfan raised his hand, touched his nose with his white gloves, and frowned.
This is a murder scene.
A murder occurred in a Shikumen residence in Xingpingli. The head of the household and his family of four were murdered. The house was also ransacked, leaving a mess everywhere.
On the New Year's Day, such a tragedy occurred, which shocked the entire Shanghai. The Chief of Police, Mr. Ferguson, personally called the Central Patrol Room and requested the Central Patrol Room to solve the case within a time limit.
Ferguson pressured Jin Kemu, and Jin Kemu naturally pushed the matter into Cheng Qianfan's hands.
"Tell me about it." Cheng Qianfan couldn't help but cover his nose again and frowned.
"The male owner is Yu Guanming, the owner of Yuji Department Store." Lu Jiufan said, "At the same time, Mrs. Yu, Yu Guanming's eldest son Yu Ziqing, and his youngest son Yu Mingji were also killed."
With that said, Lu Jiu pointed to the scene and said, "Yu Guanming died not far from the door. It is initially speculated that someone knocked on the door, and Yu Guanming went to open the door, and was killed soon after."
"When the others saw this, they fled in all directions, but in the end they did not escape the fate of being killed." Lu Jiu sighed and said.
"That's wrong." Cheng Qianfan shook his head slightly. He came to the body of the male host Yu Guanming, "The posture of the body is wrong. It doesn't look like he opened the door and was killed."
As he spoke, he squatted down and turned the body over. Seeing the chopped and turned strips of meat on the body, Cheng Qianfan couldn't help but frown, then stood up and waved his hands in disgust.
"Lao Jiu, check which house on this street has just been painted recently." Cheng Qianfan coughed and said.
"yes."
…
Outside the crime scene, his men were asking the neighbors for confessions. Hao Zai had his hands in his trouser pockets and glanced around with cold eyes.
"Where's Brother Fan?" Li Hao came over on a foreign car, and a patrolman hurried over to take over the foreign car.
"We're investigating the scene inside," Hao Zai said.
The two of them smoked together and talked in low voices.
"Do you understand?" Hao Zai asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Li Hao nodded, "He's from the second team of the Intelligence Department."
"The problem is troublesome." Hao Zai said with a serious expression.
The actual identity of the male protagonist Yu Guanming is a latent member of the Intelligence Section 2 Group, which Li Hao has just confirmed from Qiao Chuntao.
A latent intelligence officer of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Bureau was killed and his family was exterminated. The nature of this matter is very serious.
"The more troublesome thing is yet to come." Li Hao whispered, "Yu Guanming has seen Taozi."
"What?" Hao Zai's face changed and he breathed out.
Then, his expression was extremely serious.
As Li Hao said, this unexpected incident was more troublesome than they imagined.
…
No. 22 Xue Huali Road, the conference room of the Central Patrol Room.
"It's inhumane! It's extremely vicious! It's appalling!" Cheng Qianfan slapped the table and shouted in a loud voice, "In a bright and clear world, during the Chinese New Year, such an appalling massacre of an entire family happened. How crazy is this!"
His expression was extremely angry, "The murderer is provoking me from top to bottom in the patrol house. This is a huge provocation to the long-term stability of the central district of our French Concession!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the hanging plaque and said, "Everyone, what is this?"
"'Protect the environment and the people!'" Cheng Qianfan became angry and said indignantly, "This case, such a tragedy, is a great irony to our plaque, and a great irony to the great praise given to us by the citizens.
"
As he said this, he looked around at his subordinates and said, "Everyone, you can express your opinions on this tragedy."
There was silence.
Just when Cheng Qianfan looked gloomy and was about to call his name, a voice whispered, "Could it be Jiang Mulezi who committed the murder?"
"Who said that?" Cheng Qianfan's expression changed and he said in a deep voice, "Who is talking."
"Reporting to Mr. Cheng, I am a subordinate." A young inspector stood up and saluted.
"Fan Shizhou, sit down quickly, you have no right to speak." The deputy inspector of the second patrol hurriedly scolded him in a low voice.
"Let him speak. I have already told everyone to express his or her own opinion." Cheng Qianfan waved his hands and stared at the inspector, "Tell me, what is your basis for judging that this case was committed by Jiang Mulezi?"
"That, that." Fan Shizhou was a little nervous and stammered, "What I'm thinking is, wouldn't such a major and tragic case fit the characteristics of Jiang Mule's crime?"
All the police officers sitting here looked at Fan Shizhou. Some nodded and looked like they were thinking, some showed an incomprehensible smile, and some secretly shook their heads.
"This ginger mule is very busy, and even during the Chinese New Year, he has to order some ham." A patrolman lowered his voice and said to his colleagues around him.
"There is some truth in what he said." Cheng Qianfan glanced at Fan Shizhou, nodded slightly, and said, "The nature of this case is vile. The murderer was ruthless and ruthless, leaving no one alive. His actions can be said to be the outrage of both humans and gods. This type of case is indeed serious.
It’s somewhat in line with Jiang Mule’s murderous style.”
He glanced at Yuan Kaizhou and said, "Inspector Yuan."
"My subordinate is here."
"You lead the department and investigate the Jiang Mulezi gang." Cheng Qianfan said solemnly, "See if there are conditions for merging the cases with the Jiang Mulezi gang."
"yes!"
Cheng Qianfan looked around at everyone again, "Everyone, do you have anything else to say about this case?"
As he spoke, he called Hao Zai's name and said, "Zhong Guohao, please tell me your opinion."
…
"Bag duck down!" Shinji Hirai slapped Shi Lei hard.
"Hai." Yang Changnian covered his mouth and stood up quickly, "Taijun, please calm down."
Hirai Shinji snorted coldly, glared at Yang Changnian fiercely, but didn't say anything else.
There was nothing wrong with Shi Lei, it was just that Shinji Hirai was in a bad mood, so he beat and scolded this Chinese man to vent his anger.
