Chapter 382 Innocent

"You have an old saying in China, which is that you are carried away when you are carried away, just like you are now." Peter glanced at Cheng Qianfan and said.

Of course, he also knew that Cheng Qianfan was not bragging. With Inspector Cheng's current energy, he could kill someone without anyone noticing.

On the surface, the French Concession belongs to the French, but in private, the inspectors and detectives in the patrol house, and the gang bosses of the Qinggang, these people secretly 'maintain' the underground order in Shanghai.

However, Cheng Qianfan's proud attitude made Peter feel uncomfortable and he couldn't help but make some sarcastic remarks.

Cheng Qianfan smiled but didn't refute anything.

He is "at heart" a Japanese Kentaro Miyazaki. As the Japanese army attacks Shanghai, Kentaro Miyazaki will inevitably expand. Maybe Miyazaki himself "didn't realize it". This is a subconscious reaction.

"I'm just a middleman." Cheng Qianfan said, slowly taking out fifteen gold bars from the suitcase, "One hundred and twenty large yellow croakers, I'll take the smallest share, fifteen."

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Peter glanced at the gold bars in the suitcase, touched his nose, and asked.

"The Daxin Steel Plant in Zhabei is preparing to move the factory equipment and personnel out of Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan played with a gold bar in his hand and said slowly, "They were blocked at the Zhabei lease level. The other party's request was to be within twelve

Pass within an hour.”

"Zhabei Concession?" Peter looked at Cheng Qianfan with a half-smile, "Fei Fei's territory, Fei is your friend, why don't you come forward?"

"I guess the Japanese are behind this." Cheng Qianfan lowered his voice, "You know, I have always had a pretty good relationship with the Japanese."

Peter understood that Cheng Qianfan not only wanted to make money from the intermediary fee, but was also worried about offending the Japanese, so he hid behind the scenes and secretly asked him to come forward.



"I can't do anything." Peter shook his head, "I'm not familiar with Lili."

"There is no need for you to contact Li Li." Cheng Qianfan said, "Our target is Viscount Cage of the Public Settlement Industry Bureau. As long as he speaks, everything will be no problem."

Smith, the police chief of the British and American Settlement Patrol House, returned to Washington to report on his duties. The Public Settlement Patrol House is now led by David Cage, who is a director of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau and currently also serves as the deputy police chief of the Public Settlement Patrol House.

"I'm not familiar with Viscount Cage." Peter said calmly with a calm expression.

"Yes, I know you are not familiar with her." Cheng Qianfan gave Peter a meaningful look, "But I heard that Viscount David Cage loves his daughter, Miss Ruth Cage, very much."

Yesterday, he accompanied Peter to 'enjoy' the air battle on the rooftop of the Sassoon Building, and discovered that the dog-eat-dog couple, Peter and Ruth, were secretly having a tryst.

When Cheng Qianfan left the Sassoon Building, he 'casually' asked the building staff, and easily found out the identity of Miss Ruth:

Director of the British and American Public Settlement Bureau of Industry and the youngest daughter of David Cage, Viscount of the British Empire, this person also has the identity of deputy police chief of the Public Settlement Patrol Room.

"Ruth and I are ordinary friends, and we are very innocent," Peter said seriously.

"Of course I believe that your relationship is innocent." Cheng Qianfan showed an expression of 'I believe you', nodded, and pointed at the golden yellow croaker, "I have inquired about the market price, and fifty gold bars are enough to convince this

Viscount Cage.”

Peter took a look at the remaining 105 large yellow croakers in the suitcase and made a secret calculation in his mind.

After excluding the fifty gold bars given to Ruth's father, there are still fifty-five gold bars left.

Ten more were given to Ruth, and there were forty-five gold bars.

feasible.



"Okay, I'll take this job." Peter nodded, "Although Ruth and I are just ordinary friends, I believe that with my friendship with Ruth, she will be happy to help."

"Refreshing." Cheng Qianfan gave a thumbs up and smiled, "By the way, Wei Zhirong, the boss of Daxin Steel Factory, has some minor conflicts with Mr. Flood, director of the Public Settlement Industry Bureau. However, the problem is not big. Thirty

A large yellow croaker should satisfy Mr. Flood."

"Why didn't you tell me about this just now?" Pete asked angrily.

Give Director Flood thirty large yellow croakers. In this case, Peter will only have fifteen gold bars left.

I was so busy that I got as many as Cheng Qianfan, who was just a matchmaker and a talker!

This made Peter quite unhappy.

"What do you think I'm doing?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a frown, "My friend, don't be too greedy. In addition to the ones given to Viscount Cage and Mr. Flood, you can also get twenty-five large yellow croakers, which is almost as much as me."

Twice as much.”

"I will also give Ruth ten gold bars." Peter said with a serious expression.

"You can't just try to steal my hard-earned money from me just to please your woman!" Cheng Qianfan looked indignant.

The two had a short-term 'violent' argument.

In the end, Cheng Qianfan compromised, and he reluctantly agreed to give up one gold bar. He would receive an intermediary fee of 14 gold bars, and Peter would receive 16 gold bars.



When saying goodbye and leaving, Cheng Qianfan extended his right hand towards Peter.

Peter and Cheng Qianfan shook hands.

Cheng Qianfan had a strange expression and stretched out his right hand again.

"What?"

"Give me the key to warehouse three." Cheng Qianfan said angrily.

"The key is not with me. I will help you get the key tomorrow." Peter said, urging Cheng Qianfan to leave quickly.

He was worried that he would wake up his wife Linda. Then Linda would see a suitcase of gold bars, which would be bad.

It was not that he wanted to hide his personal money from Linda, but this transaction involved Ruth, and he was worried that his wife would misunderstand his "innocent" relationship with Ruth.

"Remember, we must open up the relationship before tomorrow morning and let the checkpoint be released." Cheng Qianfan warned, "I promised to get this done before twelve o'clock."

He, Inspector Cheng, has always been paid to do things, and he has a good reputation, but he cannot let his reputation be ruined.

"Don't worry." Peter quickly agreed.



After leaving Peter's home, Cheng Qianfan drove away.

Peter's house is on Masnan Road.

It is less than 200 meters away from Peng and Ou's homes.

Peng and Ou stood by the window on the second floor. The curtains were drawn. He gently opened a gap, and he just kept staring outside.

At his feet was a spittoon and a toilet.

Under the dim street lights, a garbage bin stood quietly on the roadside.

A car light came directly from me.

Cheng Qianfan put one hand on the steering wheel and the other hand holding the cigarette case. He shook it slightly and a cigarette popped out. He lowered his head and bit the cigarette.

I stepped on the brakes lightly and stopped right next to the trash can.

He threw the empty cigarette box into the trash can.

Then he slowly flipped the lighter and lit the cigarette in his mouth, then started the car and disappeared silently into the night of Shanghai.

Peng and Ou, who were watching all this from behind the curtains on the second floor, were overjoyed. They just threw away the cigarette box and lit the cigarette. This was a sign that everything was going well.

If Cheng Qianfan drives away directly without stopping, it means the situation is bad and Peter is not willing to get involved in this matter.

If you just threw away the cigarette box and did not light the cigarette, it means that there is still the possibility of further negotiation and negotiation.
