Yang Changnian did not dare to speak and stood respectfully, ready to listen to Hirai Shinji's reprimand at any time.
This actually makes Shinji Hirai feel bored. Dog-like Chinese people are all cheap.
He is a little irritable now.
Sanbonjiro gave him two tasks. One was to investigate the mysterious new secretary of the Shanghai District of Military Command. However, more than half a month had passed and there was still no progress.
In addition, what made Shinji Hirai angry was that he asked Araki Harima whether there was any progress there, especially whether there was any latest information from the 'Jie Ruler', but Araki Harima ignored him at all.
Then Hirai Shinji complained to Sanbonjiro, and Araki Harima said that there was no information coming from the 'Jiesha'.
And today, for just a trivial matter, Sanbonjiro gave him a terrible scolding, which made Shinji Hirai very angry.
There is also the case where he was ordered to investigate the murder of Yamazaki Shuichi, especially the death of Special High School Agent Kakinuma Yushio in Nishi Jiraiki Street. However, there has been no progress so far.
Shinji Hirai insisted that the matter was related to Kentaro Miyazaki, or in other words, he needed to find evidence that the matter was directly related to Kentaro Miyazaki.
Chikitaharaji has sent a telegram from Qingdao and will return to Shanghai soon. Hirai Shinji originally planned to use the murder of Yamazaki Shuichi to get involved with Miyazaki Kentaro and provide ammunition for Chikitaharaji to continue investigating the case, but
, the evidence he has at this stage, not only cannot prove that the death of Shuichi Yamazaki was caused by Kentaro Miyazaki, but it objectively proves Kentaro Miyazaki’s innocence:
Various intelligence shows that when Kentaro Miyazaki left, Shuichi Yamazaki and his wife were still alive and kicking.
In addition, rumors about Cheng Qianfan's affair with Yamazaki Shuichi's woman, Asuka Iijima, are also spreading.
Cheng Qianfan secretly met Asuka Iijima, but was accidentally broken up by Yamazaki Shuichi. Subsequently, Cheng Qianfan and Yamazaki Shuichi had a conflict. The "little Mr. Cheng" from the French Concession used despicable means to make Yamazaki Shuichi surrender——
In Shinji Hirai's view, even though Yamazaki Shuichi was forced to admit the crimes committed by his cousin, the so-called Hirakawa Mataemon, he did not mean to cover himself up:
It's better to be a murderer of one's own relatives than to have one's own woman cuckold him.
…
This is what makes Hirai Shinji most angry. In this way, the relationship between Yamazaki Shuichi and his wife and Cheng Qianfan is just a romantic dispute.
Hirai Shinji immediately found another way. If it can be verified that the death of Kakinuma Yushio is related to Cheng Qianfan and the crime of killing his colleagues in the Special High School, Kentaro Miyazaki will never be able to stand up again.
Considering the close relationship between Miyazaki Kentaro and Araki Harima, as well as his good popularity within the Special High School through various interests, Hirai Shinji did not trust the staff within the Special High School, so he transferred this person to join the empire.
It turns out that Chongqing Central Committee member Shi Lei came to perform an autopsy on Kakinuma Yoshifu, hoping to find some clues from the body.
However, after careful investigation, Shi Lei could only confirm that Kakinuma Yushio was killed by a Mauser rifle, and there was no other more specific evidence.
The Mauser short rifle was the most common firearm in the French Concession. Qinggang elements, Chongqing elements, Taihu water bandits, gangsters, and even the empire's own agents also used these firearms, so this discovery was actually of little value.
This made Shinji Hirai very upset.
…
"Taijun, my subordinates have made a discovery. I don't know if it is useful." Yang Changnian said cautiously.
"Say." Shinji Hirai said coldly.
"My subordinates conducted an autopsy on Kakinuma Yoshifu Taijun." Yang Changnian said, "Through the undigested food in Kakinuma Yoshifu Taijun's stomach, it was found that Kakinuma Yoshifu Taikun had eaten a meal that night.
A sumptuous dinner.”
"A sumptuous dinner?" Shinji Hirai frowned slightly.
"Yes, there are seaweed, rice, and meat. It should be fish. Well, there are also undigested seafood." Yang Changnian said.
"Huh?" Hirai Shinji fell into thinking, "Seaweed and rice should be sushi, fish and seafood, which are also the empire's recipes."
He looked at Shi Lei, "You mean, Kakinuma Yushio dined at the Imperial Izakaya that night, and had a sumptuous dinner."
"My subordinates only reported truthfully to the prince based on the autopsy results of Kakinuma Hoshifu Taijun." Yang Changnian said quickly, "As for whether Kakinuma Hoshifu Taikun went to the izakaya for dinner that night, it is unknown."
Hirai Shinji glanced at Shi Lei and nodded.
He quite appreciated Shi Lei's cautious and objective attitude.
"Kumazawa." Hirai Shinji ordered, "Go and investigate whether Kakinuma Yushio went to any izakaya for dinner on the night of the accident."
"Did Kakinuma Yushio go there by himself, or with others, who specifically? Also, find out who will do the accounting in the end."
The salary of a Special Top Class agent is actually not very high, so even if Kakinuma Yushio is a Special Top Class agent, he would probably not be willing to pay for a big meal at an izakaya.
"Hai!" Kumasawa Kanbei saluted Hirai Shinji and then hurried away.
Hirai Shinji nodded with satisfaction. This was what he admired about Kumazawa Kanbei. Kumazawa did not look down on him because of his humble background. He treated him with respect since he was assigned to work under him.
…
"Brother Fan, we're here."
Cheng Qianfan got out of the car, and immediately a subordinate was waiting at the door of the car holding a black umbrella.
He pushed the umbrella away and said, "Don't block me from seeing the snow scene."
"Brother Fan, be careful of hidden guns." Li Ga said quickly.
"You are the only one who has many things." Cheng Qianfan cursed. Li Ga was Li Hu's younger brother. The young man was very clever, so Cheng Qianfan asked him to be his bodyguard.
Although he cursed a lot, Cheng Qianfan did not push the umbrella away after all. Under the protection of several umbrellas, he walked through the snow into the Kaiming Grand Theater.
"Mr. Cheng, you're here." The class leader saw the car license plate of 'Mr. Cheng' early and hurriedly greeted him, "Is it "A Dream in the Garden" or "The Peach Blossom Fan"?"
""A Dream in the Garden"." Cheng Qianfan said casually, "Mr. Xiaoqing's voice has recovered, isn't it him today?"
"Okay, that's great." The class leader said quickly, "I'll tell him soon, Mr. Cheng, please let him perform hard if you appreciate the honor."
"Hmm." Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly, "If you sing well, let him come to see me after the curtain call, and you'll be rewarded."
"Okay." The class leader happily agreed.
For the troupe, it is not easy to make a living in this troubled world. Being able to win the favor and favor of the famous "Mr. Xiao Cheng" in the French Concession is like an extra talisman for the troupe.
Not to mention anything else, those fools knew that "Mr. Xiao Cheng" liked their drama, so they would restrain themselves to some extent.
…
'Mr. Xiaoqing' is the current pillar of the Qingyun class. His name is Qing Shangqi. Therefore, there was a famous Kunzhou master Qing Xingliu in Shanghai who was known as 'Mr. Qing'. Therefore, this 'Mr. Xiaoqing' is very important to Qing Shangqi.
For Qi and Qingyun classes, it is an honorific title and a sign of status.
??????55.??????
‘Mr. Xiao Cheng’ was quite satisfied with today’s play and arranged for people to watch it.
After the curtain call, the class leader personally accompanied Mr. Xiaoqing to express his gratitude.
"What are you doing here?" Cheng Qianfan glared at the class leader, "Mr. Xiaoqing and I are discussing opera, which is an elegant matter. What do you know?"
Leader Qing glanced at Qing Shangqi.
Qing Shangqi nodded slightly, indicating that nothing happened, and then the class leader excused himself and left.
However, after going out to the backstage, the leader Qing found a little corner girl and asked her to bring some preserved fruits and dried fruits to her.
This 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' has a bad reputation for bullying men and dominating women. He is just a domineering woman, but he has never heard of bullying men. However, he had to be on guard and arranged for Xiao Jiao'er to go over. If something happened, he might be able to disturb the situation.
Although I couldn't save Qing Shangqi because of the good deeds of 'Mr. Xiao Cheng', I still felt clear in my heart.
…
"Yu Guanming's whole family was wiped out." Cheng Qianfan glanced at 'Mr. Xiaoqing' and said calmly, "Tell me the reason for doing that."
He personally led a team to inspect the scene, and almost as soon as he entered the door, he smelled a familiar smell.
It's not that the murderer acted crudely and left many clues.
On the contrary, the scene was handled very cleanly, but those clues that seemed not to be handled cleanly and that the murderer "still left clues despite being very cautious" were done secretly to cover up, induce, and confuse them.
use.
Cheng Qianfan was very familiar with this method of doing things, because it was exactly his 'usual' method in certain situations.
He immediately knew that this case was committed by Tao Zi.
He focused on cultivating Qiao Chuntao, and Taozi also secretly learned from him, and even some of his behavior styles increasingly bore his mark.
"Yu Guanming invited me to meet at his home, saying that he had urgent information." Qiao Chuntao said, "When my subordinates arrived, they discovered that Yu Guanming's two sons, Yu Ziqing and Yu Mingji, were also at home."
Cheng Qianfan frowned.
For many military commanders who are single, Yu Guanming has a family, a career, a wife, and two sons, which is very special.
However, Yu Guanming was an old man from the Lixingshe Secret Service period. At that time, Shanghai had not yet fallen, and there were no restrictions on having a family within the Secret Service.
Qi Wu came to Shanghai a year ago and handed over the agent who had been lurking in the market for many years to the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group for use.
Cheng Qianfan was surprised to find that this old resident in his jurisdiction turned out to be a veteran military commander.
This person was very successful in lurking. When buying gifts for the patrol house, he even purchased goods from Yu Guanming.
If Qi Wu hadn't informed him of this person's identity, Cheng Qianfan wouldn't have had any doubts about this friendly but shrewd little boss.
It was precisely because of this that he heard from Qiao Chuntao that Yu Guanming had sent out a secret meeting signal and made an appointment to meet Taozi, but did not remove his family members in advance. This was indeed wrong.
If it is understandable that Mrs. Yu is at home and there is a need for protection, the two sons should never be at home.
This is inconsistent with Yu Guanming's usual cautious temperament.
…
"When I saw Yu Guanming's two sons, my face darkened," Taozi said.
"What did Yu Guanming say?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
He knew that the problem lay in what happened next.
"Yu Guanming said that his two sons and their classmates were going to enjoy the snow, and they just happened to run back to get their cameras," Taozi said.
There was a flash of memory in his eyes, and at the same time there was a hint of sharpness, "At this moment, Yu Guanming's eldest son Yu Ziqing took the camera towards me and pressed the shutter."
Cheng Qianfan's expression immediately became extremely serious.
"Then, before I could get angry, Yu Guanming scolded his sons and drove them to get out of here." Qiao Chuntao said.
Cheng Qianfan reached out and picked up a licorice apricot, put it into his mouth and chewed it. He spit out the apricot core and said calmly, "You did it right away?"
"Yes! I took action immediately. Yu Guanming didn't expect that I would suddenly attack." Qiao Chuntao nodded, "After killing four members of the Yu family, I faked the scene."
"Rough." Cheng Qianfan shook his head slightly, "Have you burned your clothes when you went back?"
"The clothes were burned." Taozi said.
"Where are the shoes?" Cheng Qianfan asked again.
"The soles of the shoes have been checked, and the blood stains have been cleaned up." Taozi said, explaining to Virgo, "It won't attract attention if the clothes are disposed of, but throwing away the shoes will easily arouse suspicion."
"Go back and check the shoes carefully." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Did my subordinates make any oversights?" Taozi immediately realized something was wrong and asked immediately.
"There was paint between Yu Guanming's fingernails. When the police came in, the paint was not completely dry," Cheng Qianfan said.
He glanced at Tao Zi and said, "On the ground, in an inconspicuous corner of the wall, there is a shoe print that is not very obvious. The shoe print is covered with paint."
"My subordinate was negligent." Taozi's expression changed and she nodded.
Although he was very skilled, it still took a lot of effort to get rid of Yu Guanming's family by himself. Then he forged the crime scene. Although he was careful enough, it was difficult to take care of too much due to time constraints.
Tao Zi now recalled carefully that there should be blood on the soles of his shoes, and then the paint was covered with blood, so that he later did not find that the soles of his shoes had been stained with paint.
In addition, he did not notice the paint between Yu Guanming's fingernails. It was difficult to say whether his body might have been stained with paint at some point. This detail was not noticed by him because he burned his clothes.
…
"Did you find anything after you started killing people?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"No." Qiao Chuntao shook her head solemnly, "My subordinates quickly searched Yu Guanming's home and found nothing unusual."
"Did Yu Guanming say anything before he died?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"When my subordinates took action, they did not think about leaving anyone alive for interrogation," Qiao Chuntao said.
Although he also knew that the truth could only be clarified by keeping Yu Guanming alive for interrogation, but when he took action, Taozi did not hesitate at all, and the action was extremely ruthless, because he knew that in that case, if he thought too much,
If there are too many, hesitating to take action is a big taboo.
According to his idea, the most reasonable approach is to deal with Yu Guanming's entire family and silence them.
He thought so, so he did it.
