Chapter 384 What’s the matter with the second lieutenant?
Cheng Qianfan told Datou Lu to be in charge of the arresting hall, and at the same time arranged for Li Hao to stay and listen to Deputy Inspector Lu's dispatch. He ordered Haozi, who had just come to work, and left.
The sky was overcast.
There is a river to the left of the Target Range Prison. Across the river is a row of warehouses in the Central Patrol Room.
Cheng Qianfan asked for the key and approval document from Peter.
Several trucks were parked at the entrance of the warehouse, and workers were unloading the goods in full swing.
Seeing Inspector Xiao Cheng coming, the coolies showed a flattering smile on their poor faces and worked harder.
A third-class Chinese prisoner brought a bearer over.
"Listen up, our inspector said, if you work hard, each person will be rewarded with an extra fifty cents and three kilograms of pancakes!" Hua Li shouted at the top of his voice.
After hearing this, the coolies shouted hello, and some old coolies even knelt down and kowtowed to Inspector Xiao Cheng.
The young inspector looked at this scene with a smile and waved his hands from time to time, seeming to enjoy the grateful looks and words of these coolies.
At this time, a middle-aged laborer slipped and almost dropped the box to the ground if the person next to him hadn't pulled it.
"What are you doing?" Hao Zai waved his baton and went up to beat him.
"Hey, hey, stop." Cheng Qianfan frowned and stopped Haozi, "Don't do it, it's uncivilized."
The laborer, who was almost hit by a baton, hurriedly bowed and apologized.
Cheng Qianfan smiled and waved his hand, meaning it was nothing.
However, when a laborer went to move the goods, he overheard Inspector Xiao Cheng standing not far away with his hands behind his back, reprimanding his men in a low voice, "I'm afraid of you. I broke the goods and used his daughter to pay off the debt."
, Damn bad bamboos produce good bamboo shoots, this old boy actually has such a beautiful daughter."
This one kills with a thousand cuts!
The laborers then told the middle-aged laborers what they heard. Everyone was angry but dared not speak, and they cursed the greedy and lustful Inspector Cheng in their hearts.
…
Central patrol room, entrance to the third patrol hall.
"Inspector Lu, thank you, thank you very much." A man in a green cloth coat clasped his fists and said with a grateful face.
Next to him was an unshaven, silent young man. This man was Chang Shen, the owner of Tianya Photo Studio who had just been released.
"After you go out, do your work honestly and don't cause trouble again." Datou Lu pinched the wad of banknotes that the man had just handed over quietly. He had an idea in his mind, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, raised his riding boots and stepped on it, and said.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely discipline my cousin well." The man in the blue cloth coat said hurriedly, and glared at Chang Shen as he spoke.
"I know." Chang Shu whispered without raising his head, as if he was very frightened.
"Go." Da Toulu waved his hand.
Watching the cousins leave, he narrowed his eyes.
In the corridor on the second floor, Li Hao, who was smoking, also looked at this scene coldly.
Under a tree diagonally opposite the patrol room door, several young men and women kept staring at the patrol room door.
Seeing Chang Shen and the man in the green cloth coat coming out, one of the women whispered something to her companions.
"So, this person was framed and arrested by Cheng Qianfan's people?"
"Yes, Cheng Qianfan is greedy for money and lustful. He framed businesses and committed all kinds of evil." The woman sneered, "I guess I made a lot from this sum, otherwise I wouldn't have let him go so quickly."
"Okay, don't worry about other people's affairs. The most important thing for us now is to inquire about Akagi-kun." Another young man said.
"The problem now is that Akagi seems to have disappeared out of thin air. I have inquired secretly, and the patrol office said that no college students from Chishi University have been arrested." The young man in the lead said.
At this moment, a team of policemen came out to patrol the streets, and the police officer leading the team glanced this way.
"Withdraw!" the young man leading the group whispered.
…
The French Concession was ‘peaceful and peaceful’.
At this moment, the fighting is extremely fierce in Shanghai Huajie and Hongkou.
On the campus of Patriotic Girls’ School.
Houses are burning.
Fallen locust trees and burning poplar trees.
There were also book boxes, books, and lecture notes left behind by the fleeing students scattered everywhere, burning silently.
There are ruins and ruins everywhere.
The entire campus has turned into a sea of flames.
A small team of the Japanese army relied on the ruins of the campus library as a fortification to block the Chinese army's attack.
A squad of Chinese soldiers braved the enemy's artillery fire and rain of bullets for their eighth charge.
The street directly opposite the library is narrow, which creates difficulties for the attacking side. The enemy can directly block the front with full firepower.
Seeing one after another his comrades fall under the firepower of the Type 92 heavy machine gun, the battalion commander of the major of the Eighty-seventh Division of the National Army got red-eyed and was about to rush out of the bunker and lead his men in a death-defying attack.
He was hugged by the soldiers beside him.
"Battal Commander, I'm on!" The soldier gritted his teeth, picked up the explosive pack, and rushed out of the bunker.
As soon as he rushed less than ten meters, he was hit by heavy machine guns and turned into a hornet's nest.
"Water scoop." The major and battalion commander roared in grief and anger.
…
At this moment, a group of soldiers in black military uniforms ran over from behind amid the thick smoke.
"Batalion Commander, the brothers from the Jiangsu Provincial Security Corps are here." A platoon leader ran over, knelt down and reported.
"Report." A lieutenant officer from the security regiment was about to salute.
The expression of the major battalion commander of the national army changed, and he rushed towards him, trying to throw the man to the ground, but it was already too late.
A bullet flew and smashed the second lieutenant's head into pieces, scattering red and white parts all over the floor.
"Get down, get down." The national army platoon leader screamed desperately, "Get down, the little Japanese's marksmanship is accurate!"
"Company commander!" A second lieutenant officer of the security regiment shouted desperately as he looked at the lieutenant whose head was smashed.
"You're dead." The major battalion commander of the national army patted the young second lieutenant on the shoulder, "You should be clear about the mission sent to you by the higher authorities. You will go another way later..."
Before the major battalion commander of the national army finished speaking, he saw the second lieutenant of the security regiment turn over and jump out of the bunker with no regard for life or death.
…
"Three platoons long!!"
"Aguan!!!"
Amid exclamations of surprise.
The second lieutenant who rushed out was completely exposed to the range of the Japanese army.
I saw bullets flying everywhere.
With a whoosh, a mortar shell fell.
There was a roar.
Everyone thought that the second lieutenant had died.
But he didn't expect to see this man through the smoke. He was short and cat-like. He was running in an arc and suddenly raised the rifle in his hand.
"boom!"
The roar of the heavy machine gun stopped.
"Charge!" Without any hesitation, the battalion commander, a major in the national army, rushed out of the bunker and took the lead in the charge.
Da da da!
The sound of heavy machine gun fire sounded again.
Several national army soldiers were directly torn to pieces by the barrage.
Snapped!
The second lieutenant of the security regiment who was lying on the ground suddenly stood up, half-crouched, raised his gun, and bang!
The machine gun misfired again.
The misfire of the Type 92 heavy machine gun directly led to the lack of defensive firepower of the Japanese army. In less than half a minute, the Chinese army broke into the ruins of the library and a fierce hand-to-hand battle broke out between the two sides.
In the end, the outnumbered Japanese troops retreated and abandoned their position at the Patriotic Girls' School.
…
"Well done, third platoon leader."
"Aguan, well done."
The officers and soldiers of the security regiment surrounded the second lieutenant and shouted happily.
"You fucking grandma." The major battalion commander of the national army came over and kicked the second lieutenant of the security regiment to the ground.
"What?"
"Why do you hit people?"
The soldiers of the security group became commotion.
The second lieutenant got up from the ground and made a gesture to stop the commotion in Pao Ze. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood at attention and saluted, "If you don't respect orders, you will be punished!"
"Since you knew you were disrespecting orders, why did you rush out?" asked the national major battalion commander.
"I can't bear it!" the second lieutenant of the security group yelled through gritted teeth and red eyes.
The major of the national army gave the second lieutenant of the security group a cold look. When he saw that the other lieutenant was standing straight, his expression unchanged, his eyes gained a touch of warmth, "Your name and serial number!"
"He Guan, commander of the third platoon of the first battalion of the Jiangsu Provincial Security Corps, was ordered to lead the team here and ask for instructions from the superior!"
…
Maggie Road, Doug Private Clinic.
"What clues were found?" Wang Kangnian asked Ding Naifei in a hoarse voice.
He sent all his men out to search for the traces of the 'Red Bandit' Luo Tao.
At the same time, other teams of the Action Unit of the Party Affairs Investigation Division, as well as the Intelligence Section, also dispersed all their people.
Not only that, Shangfeng also secretly informed the Qing Gang and asked the gang forces to help search for the person.
Half a day has passed, and there has been no progress yet, which makes Wang Kangnian a little impatient.
"No." Ding Naifei shook his head. He drank the tap water directly from the teapot, wiped his mouth, and said, "Team leader, it's just a name, not even a photo. It's hard for the brothers to check."
"Luo Tao came to Shanghai to treat his injuries." Wang Kangnian said, "According to the information from Hangzhou, Luo Tao's injuries are extremely serious. Only large hospitals and high-end private clinics that can perform major surgeries can treat him."
He took out the cigarette case, smoked a cigarette himself, lit it, took a deep breath, threw the cigarette case to Ding Naifei, and continued, "There are only a few large hospitals in the French Concession. You and your people should first take care of these hospitals."
Go through it again.”
"What about those private clinics?" Ding Naifei asked.
"I'll personally take someone to touch it." Wang Kangnian flicked the cigarette ashes, his eyes twinkling.
Based on his speculation, the Shanghai Red Party would most likely arrange for Luo Tao to go to a private clinic for treatment. Without him, private clinics would be more concealed.
"There's one more thing." Ding Naifei said.
"Say." Wang Kangnian said in a deep voice.
"Wang Yiming could not bear the punishment and died." Ding Naifei said.
"Eating everything inside and outside." Wang Kangnian snorted coldly, "Did he explain anything?"
"No." Ding Naifei said, "He kept repeating those words. He did not admit that he was a Red Party member, nor did he admit that he sympathized with the Red Party. He only said that he was wronged."
Wang Kangnian's eyes narrowed. He had previously deduced that Wang Yiming was influenced by "Yuchang", or was instigated by "Yuchang" Liu Bo. To be precise, Wang Yiming was bewitched by Liu Bo's fallacies and heresies, so that he betrayed the Three People's Principles.
, betrayed the party-state.
However, Ding Naifei reported that even after being tortured, Wang Yiming still refused to reveal anything and only said that he was unjustly accused.
This made Wang Kangnian a little suspicious. He suspected that Wang Yiming was not just bewitched by Liu Bo. Wang Yiming was probably a red party member himself:
Also, Wang Yiming is a latent agent arranged by the Red Party to infiltrate the Party Affairs Investigation Department.
If not, it would be difficult to explain why Wang Yiming was able to withstand such severe torture.
Wang Kangnian was well aware of the horror of torture in the Party Affairs Investigation Department. He himself was a master of torture, and at least dozens of Red Party members died in his hands.
Some people are not Red Party members. After being tortured, they will rush to admit that they are Red Party members and just want to die quickly.
There is a high chance that someone who keeps carrying things like this without saying anything is a real red party member.
…
Two rickshaws stopped at the entrance of Tianya Photo Studio.
"How are you?" The man in a blue cloth coat helped Chang Shu get out of the car.
"Fortunately." Chang Shu smiled bitterly, "Those guys didn't torture me, they just didn't eat enough, didn't sleep well, and I was weak."
Arriving at the door, Chang Shu took out the key from his body and prepared to open the door.
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly.
"What's wrong?" the man in the green cloth coat asked in a low voice.
"The door has been broken open." Chang Shen said with a gloomy face.
The two looked at each other with solemn expressions.
When I entered the house, I saw that everything was messed up and in a mess.
One of them rushed to the darkroom and the other to the bedroom on the second floor.
A few minutes later.
Chang Shu came down from the bedroom on the second floor.
The man in the green cloth coat came out of the darkroom with a livid face.
"All the photos and negatives are gone." The man in the blue cloth coat gritted his teeth and said, "Not only those, but also the developer, the tweezers, the cassette, and the clips have also been looted."
"The upstairs was also turned upside down." Chang Shu said, "However, the other party only took away the money. My books, magazines, novels, and diaries are still there."
"Who do you think did it?" the man in a blue cloth coat asked.
"It should be a break-in." Chang Shu picked up a chair, sat down tiredly, and said while thinking, "Many people know that I was caught by the patrol, and those who broke in naturally also know that the photo studio has no
People, so they targeted me."
"What I'm most worried about now are those photos and negatives," said the man in a blue cloth coat.
"If only the photos and negatives were confiscated, it means we were exposed." Chang Shen said with a solemn expression, "But the other party also took away the developer, tweezers, cassettes and other things. This actually reassures me.
Quite a few.”
He looked at the puzzled expression of the man in the green cloth coat and continued, "These are probably a bunch of extremely poor bastards. They don't understand. They just think that the things in the photo studio are high-end. As long as they haven't seen anything before,
Anyone who doesn’t understand, just go along.”
Hearing this, the man in the green cloth coat breathed a sigh of relief, "If it's really what you said, then that's okay."
Immediately, he frowned again and said, "Tell me, these thieves will develop the film, which will be troublesome."
"If it's really a thief, then it'll be fine." Chang Shu said with a wry smile.
"Do you want to report to the police station?" the man in a blue cloth coat asked.
"Absolutely not." Chang Shen said with a serious expression.
