Chapter 324 Confrontation with Code Words (please vote for me)
The "violent attacks" that occurred on Di Siwei Road and Cherry Lane in Hongkou District, the French Concession, shocked Shanghai.
The next day, newspapers and media in Shanghai reported the incident vigorously.
"An attack by unknown persons occurred in the public concession. The Qingtian Clothing Store on Di Siwei Road and a residential house in Cherry Lane were attacked, resulting in heavy casualties.
The attacking gunmen even exchanged fire with concession patrols and Japanese military police, causing casualties to the patrols and Japanese military police.
After the incident, martial law was imposed on Dee Siwe Road. Japan strongly condemned this attack on civilians and has lodged stern representations with the national government.
No organization has claimed responsibility for this incident."
Cheng Qianfan put down the newspaper and yawned.
He was thinking about whether there were any mistakes in his actions yesterday.
After comprehensively analyzing Zhuo Yun's report, he repeatedly reviewed yesterday's actions in his mind, confirmed that there were no errors or omissions, and nodded with satisfaction.
The Japanese special group in the Inoue Mansion was like the sword of Damocles hanging over his head. Unless this group was eliminated, he would feel uneasy.
Now, the knot in my heart is gone and I feel refreshed.
…
Violent attacks in the public concession also affected the French Concession.
Chief Inspector Qin Detai convened a high-level meeting of the Central Patrol Office to inform the latest documents of the French Concession Public Security Bureau.
"At this time of turmoil, with demons and demons running rampant, my patrol office has the obligation to ensure the safety of the lives and property of the citizens in the central district, so——" Qin Detai glanced at the several inspectors and deputy inspectors.
"Brothers, please work harder, strengthen patrols, and arrest criminals immediately if you find them."
"Mr. Qin said it well." Cheng Qianfan immediately stood up, "On behalf of the Third Patrol, I would like to express my position here. It is our duty to protect the country and the people, and we will do our duty wholeheartedly!"
The other patrol officers glanced at Cheng Qianfan and were overtaken by this boy again.
The rest of the people also quickly expressed their opinions that they would ensure the safety of the area and not let Mr. Qin worry.
"Very good, very good." Qin Detai nodded happily, "I have great confidence in you."
He glanced at everyone and said, "Everyone else has left first, Cheng Qianfan is staying."
…
Qin Detai returned to sit behind his desk and glanced at Inspector Cheng, "Qianfan, do you know why I left you alone?"
"The area under my jurisdiction covers Father Jin Road, Honolulu Road and Masinan Road. It is the residence of important people in the Central District, and safety issues are of vital importance." Cheng Qianfan said respectfully, "My subordinates are young and it is inevitable that they will not think carefully.
Please give me some advice, Mr. Qin."
"You, you, threshold spirit." Qin Detai said with a smile, "As you expected, those people in your jurisdiction are all people of high status. I only have one request, don't cause any trouble."
"My subordinates assure you that patrols will be strengthened and arrangements will be made carefully. The troops will work conscientiously and no shots will be fired in the jurisdiction." Cheng Qianfan immediately expressed his position.
"Very good. What I appreciate most is the momentum of young people." Qin Detai nodded with satisfaction. He looked down at the documents, "One more thing. The national government has officially applied to the concession to extradite Liu Bo, and the authorities have approved it.
.”
Cheng Qianfan was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Qin, Liu Bo has been dismissed from his post and sentenced to prison. His affairs have nothing to do with us anymore, right?"
"Confused, Liu Bo is from our patrol bureau. Although he made mistakes, he is still from our patrol bureau." Qin Detai scolded, "I know you and Liu Bo have always had a good relationship..."
"Mr. Qin, my subordinates didn't know at that time that Liu Bo was actually a member of the Red Party." Cheng Qianfan quickly yelled.
"What are you shouting for? I'm not saying you have anything with him." Qin Detai scolded and took out an envelope from the desk. "Take this money and go see Liu Bo's wife and children. Although Liu Bo did something wrong,
After all, he has contributed to my patrol room, and his wife and children are also innocent. He is an orphan and a widowed mother, and his life is difficult."
"Mr. Qin has such a heart, if Liu Bo knew about it, he would definitely shed tears of gratitude." Cheng Qianfan said with sincerity.
"Go." Qin Detai waved his hand, "You take Liu Bo's wife and children to visit him in prison. There is only so much we can do."
"yes!"
…
After leaving the chief inspector's office, Cheng Qianfan returned to his own office.
Standing by the window sill, he lit a cigarette and thought about Qin Detai's intention.
Because of Liu Bo's scandal, Qin Detai was in trouble last year.
In the following year, Liu Bo's name became even more taboo in the Central Patrol Room.
Qin Detai suddenly mentioned to him that Liu Bo was going to be extradited by the government, and kindly gave him a "settlement allowance" and allowed him to visit Liu Bo's wife and children in prison.
Something went wrong.
There was nothing wrong with Qin Detai asking him, who had a good relationship with Liu Bo, to do this to appease his subordinates' wives and children.
However, his intuition told him that something was wrong.
Although Cao Yu is missing, the Party Affairs Investigation Office's judgment on Liu Bo's identity as "Yuchang" should not change.
In fact, precisely because of this, the national government, instead of suspending the extradition request, intensified its efforts to urge the French Concession authorities to speed up the extradition process.
Provide living expenses for Liu Bo's wife and children and arrange a meeting.
This is a good thing.
On the surface, this matter is also a kind act. Qin Detai took such good care of Liu Bo, a subordinate who made a big mistake. Naturally, his colleagues in the patrol room felt the same and praised Qin Detai endlessly.
For Liu Bo, it is also a good thing that his wife and children have this money and their basic life is temporarily guaranteed. He will naturally be grateful to Qin Detai.
Yes, on the surface, there is nothing wrong with this.
However, the problem arises at this time point, which is intriguing.
…
Qin Detai has something in Liu Bo's hands, so he is worried that Liu Bo will reveal the truth after being extradited?
impossible!
With Qin Detai's ruthlessness and skill, if Liu Bo really had control over him, Qin Detai would have arranged for Liu Bo to be killed in prison.
Qin Detai could kill a prisoner without being noticed.
So……
Cheng Qianfan thought hard.
Suddenly, he thought of a key point.
His teacher, Xiu Gongshen, was from the national government, and as he expected, there should be a secret service behind the teacher.
Many Chinese senior officials in the French Concession have diverse backgrounds.
Who is Qin Detai?
Cheng Qianfan made bold assumptions and carefully verified them.
If, if Qin Detai is from the Party Affairs Investigation Department, then everything can be explained:
Pay the An family expenses for Liu Bo's wife and children, and arrange visits in prison.
On the surface, Qin Detai is considerate of his subordinates and has a bodhisattva heart.
However, if Qin Detai is acting on behalf of the Party Affairs Investigation Office, this is tantamount to informing Liu Bo, or to be precise, informing "Yuchang"——
Your wife and children are under our control.
Since you can pay for relocation, you can also harm people!
This is a warning.
Cheng Qianfan further speculated that perhaps Liu Bo, who was in prison, had been warned about threats to his wife and children.
This time he arranged for him to take Liu Bo's wife and children to visit the prison, just to show his own experience.
This kind of profound meaning is unknown to others, but Liu Bo naturally understands it.
This is a "code word" confrontation between the Party Affairs Investigation Office and Liu Bo.
