"Do you understand?" Lu Dazhang threw a cigarette to the other party.
The man took the cigarette with both hands, smelled it, showed a flattering smile, and put the cigarette behind his ear.
"I found out that Aunt Gou only had a daughter who was married to Maoshan. His brother is an old widower. His wife died early and he has no son. I heard he was hooking up with Widow Luo at the end of the alley," the man said.
"Good job." Lu Dazhang nodded, "This matter..."
"Don't worry, Chief Road Inspector. Who doesn't know that I, Cheng Lao Er, have the tightest mouth?" Cheng Lao Er chuckled. It's not that he has a tight mouth, but that he knows when to keep his mouth tight.
"Let's go." Lu Dazhang waved his hand, took two steps, took out the remaining half pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and threw it out, "You have been more honest recently. The patrol room is conducting strict inspections, so be careful of getting shot."
"That can't be done, I'm being honest." Cheng Laoer said happily as he took half a pack of cigarettes.
Lu Dazhang wandered around, went to a teahouse, drank tea, and listened to a play. After about half an hour, he confirmed that no one was following him, and then Shi Shiran went downstairs to meet Lao Huang at the appointed time.
"I found out that the woman selling sweet-scented osmanthus cake only has one daughter, and she married to Maoshan. Her brother is a widower and has no children." Lu Dazhang said with a serious expression.
"In this way, it is basically certain that the so-called Ou Xiaoshan is lying." Lu Dazhang said, "In addition, according to the description, this person is very similar to a small agent named Xiao Ou from the Party Affairs Investigation Department, and this person has disappeared.
It’s been a while.”
"Okay." Lao Huang stood up and patted his butt, "I will report to the organization right now."
…
The martial law in the French Concession has not yet been lifted. After dinner, Cheng Qianfan returned to the central patrol room again to check on the status of his men on duty.
After scolding the two men who secretly pushed Pai Gow and wandering around for a while, Inspector Cheng Xiao stopped by the medical room before leaving the patrol room.
"Old Huang, please give me some more of the toothache medicine you prescribed last time." Cheng Qianfan knocked on the door and said loudly, "Old Huang, Old Huang."
no respond.
"This old Huang doesn't know where to hide and drink." Cheng Qianfan muttered.
At this moment, the door opened, revealing Lao Huang's drunken face.
"What are you doing?" Lao Huang burped.
"What are you doing? I want toothache medicine." Cheng Qianfan said angrily, and walked into the room casually, "Old Huang, the way you drink, you will die from the bottle sooner or later."
"Wait, I'll get the medicine." Lao Huang swayed, opened the medicine cabinet, and searched for a while before finding the painkillers. He unscrewed the medicine bottle, poured out a dozen pills, wrapped them, and handed them to Cheng Qianfan.
.
Cheng Qianfan took it, put it in his pocket, and came out holding his nose. Lao Huang's room smelled of alcohol, and there seemed to be vomit in the spittoon. Not to mention the smell.
Lao Huang uses two layers of paper to wrap the medicine.
Back in the car, Cheng Qianfan took off the outer layer of paper and looked at it.
"There are two brothers and sisters. The younger sister has only one daughter. She is married to Maoshan. The elder brother has no children. There is an agent from the Party Affairs Investigation Department named Xiao Ou who has disappeared."
Sure enough, Cheng Qianfan nodded secretly.
He took out the paste from the glove box, wiped a little of it, stuck the paper on a cigarette, lit it, held it in his mouth, and destroyed the information.
That night, the northwest headquarters of ‘Huo Miao’ Power Generation:
According to the "Declaration", the owner of the Osmanthus Cake stall outside has only one woman. She is married far away and the man has no children. The Party Affairs Investigation Department agent once had agent Xiao Ou, but now he has disappeared, which is highly consistent with Ou Xiaoshan.
…
the next day.
northwest.
Yanzhou.
Zheng Zhiteng and Fang Muheng met secretly.
"It has been confirmed that Ou Xiaoshan is a special agent of the Kuomintang Party Affairs Investigation Division." Zheng Zhiyu said with a serious expression, "Comrade Mu Heng, you have made a meritorious service. On behalf of the Northwest Security Bureau, I would like to express my gratitude to you."
"They are all revolutionary comrades, as they should be." Fang Muheng said with a straw in his mouth, "I suggest that the organization arrest Ou Xiaoshan immediately. The anti-Japanese propaganda brigade has a special nature, and keeping this person alive is a huge hidden danger.
"
"Since the enemy has been exposed, we will not give him a chance to do evil." Zheng Zhifan said, "The organization has decided to take a long-term approach to fishing for big fish. The purpose is to dig out the enemy agents lurking in the northwest through Ou Xiaoshan."
As he said that, he looked at Fang Muheng and said, "Comrade Muheng, we need your cooperation to stabilize Ou Xiaoshan."
"I don't have the ability to fight against the enemy. I'm worried about making things worse." Fang Muheng pondered for a moment and said, "I still insist on my opinion. Ou Xiaoshan must be arrested immediately."
"Okay, I will report your opinions to the organization." Zheng Zhicheng nodded.
After Fang Muheng leaves.
Zheng Zhitong returned to the Security Bureau.
"How is it? What did Comrade Mu Heng say?" asked a leader of the Security Bureau.
"Reporting to the director, Comrade Mu Heng was worried that his lack of experience would arouse Ou Xiaoshan's suspicion. In addition, he expressed the nature of the anti-Japanese propaganda brigade and had many contacts with the leaders, so he insisted that Ou Xiaoshan must be arrested immediately."
The director thought for a moment and nodded, "Where is Ou Xiaoshan?"
"We have been arrested secretly!"
"Interrogate immediately."
"yes!"
After Zheng Zhicheng left, a smile appeared on the director's face. This Fang Muheng had a firm revolutionary will and hated his enemies extremely. He could rule out suspicion and was a good comrade worthy of trust.
It concerned the head of the headquarters and he did not dare to be careless.
…
A car is driving on the Shanghai-Nanjing Highway.
The roof of the black car is covered with a striking British Empire flag.
Sir Hugoson, the British Ambassador to China, was sitting in the car. He moved his body and twisted his buttocks.
The road from Nanjing to Shanghai can be regarded as the best road in China. However, the road has been bombed and damaged by Japanese military planes many times and has some potholes. The journey along the way is really exhausting.
Yesterday, I received a secret notification from the Nationalist Government that Chang Kaishen, Chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, wanted to take his car to Shanghai secretly. Xu Gesen hesitated and finally agreed.
However, he was still a little uneasy in his heart. China is a neutral country. If the Japanese side learns of this behavior, it will inevitably arouse strong dissatisfaction and protest from the Japanese side.
Thinking of Japan, Xu Gesen also had a headache.
The British Empire supported Japan's rise, which was once considered a coup for British foreign policy.
In the Sino-Japanese War, Japan defeated the Qing Dynasty and curbed the rise of the Wanqing government. The Russo-Japanese War directly helped Britain realize its strategic intention of containing Tsarist Russia in the Far East.
However, today, Japan, the pawn, has extremely expanded its ambitions and has completely escaped the control of the British Empire.
Xu Gesen shook his head.
Before he left today, the national government informed him that Chairman Chang Kaishen had important matters temporarily and would not take his ride.
Xu Gesen was very excited about this news, which also saved the British Empire from difficulty.
When approaching Jiading Road, the road was even more bumpy and bumpy, and the vehicles were driving slowly.
At this moment, a voice came from the air.
Xu Gesen opened the car curtain and saw two Japanese planes roaring in and showing off their power.
Xu Gesen frowned, the Japanese were too arrogant.
However, he didn't think much about it.
Although the Japanese were arrogant and cruel, they absolutely did not dare to offend the British Empire and did not dare to attack its vehicles.
Then, he saw the Japanese military plane swooping down and roaring down with a burst of fire.
"Enemy attack!" Xu Gesen was stunned. He had only one thought in his mind:
How dare the Japanese?
Can't they see the British Empire flag on the roof?
The vehicle hurriedly accelerated and fled.
"Woo——"
Japanese military planes began to drop bombs.
The dodging vehicle was hit by a bomb, and with a bang, the vehicle began to burn.
It's not over.
The Japanese military plane dropped two more bombs one after another, hovered in the air for observation, and after confirming that it hit the target, it shook its wings and left quickly.
…
Public concession.
A grand welcome banquet is being prepared.
The senior officials of the Public Settlement Industry Bureau, British businessmen, and representatives of expatriates also gathered together in a glamorous manner.
This is a banquet to welcome British Ambassador to China Hui Gesen.
As France is an ally of Britain in Europe, senior representatives from the French Concession Board of Directors also participated.
The tall and handsome Second Lieutenant Peter, as the representative of the Political Office of the French Concession, was talking to a beautiful lady at this moment. I don't know what the Second Lieutenant said, and Miss Ruth was trembling with teasing.
"Bitch man and woman." Cheng Qianfan flattened his mouth and cursed in his mind.
He came here with Pete to eat and drink.
Of course, the main purpose is to take the opportunity to meet some people in the public concession and expand contacts.
"Inspector Cheng, how do you think about the business I mentioned to you last time?" Nelson came over with a red wine glass, clinked it with Inspector Cheng, took a sip himself, and asked.
"Mr. Jackson." Cheng Qianfan smiled bitterly, "Even I would have a hard time selling those goods of yours."
After meeting this American at the Sassoon Building last time, this man came to his door to sell goods to him.
Chinese people, especially the young bourgeoisie, admire Western goods, so American goods should not worry about selling them.
However, I don’t know what this Jackson was thinking, but he actually shipped a large amount of contraceptive products to Shanghai for sale.
As you can imagine, this batch of contraceptive products cannot be sold except for some novices who are willing to give it a try.
When Nelson heard this, he also frowned. Of course he now knew that there was no market for this product in China. However, all his funds were tied up in this batch of goods, so he could only try his best to get rid of it before looking for other deals.
Cheng Qianfan looked at the frowning Nelson and thought in his mind.
The heat is almost done.
It's been a while since I gave up on this Citizen guy.
He secretly inquired and found out that Jackson was just an ordinary American businessman. However, Jackson's uncle dealt in medicines and medical equipment in the United States, which Cheng Qianfan valued.
Although he is now happily cooperating with the French, eggs cannot be put in one basket. It is always a good thing to prepare for a rainy day and expand supply channels.
"Well, let me think of a way to see if I can help you sell it." Cheng Qianfan pondered for a moment, "However, the price may be very low."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the price can be negotiated." Nelson said happily. He no longer wants to recover his capital, but only wants to stop the loss in time.
At this moment, a staff member from the public concession staggered in.
This person whispered in the ear of the British Consul General in Shanghai, and the Consul General's face changed drastically and he hurriedly left.
Soon, someone from the Board of Directors announced that the welcome banquet was cancelled.
The scene was in an uproar.
Everyone was puzzled.
Soon, the news spread that Sir Hugo Sen, the British Ambassador to China, was bombed by Japanese military planes on his way to Shanghai. He was sent to the hospital. It was said that his injuries were extremely serious and his life or death was uncertain.
The entire banquet hall exploded.
Many celebrities and guests were stunned and talking about it.
"God, how dare the Japanese?" Jackson exclaimed.
Yes, how dare the Japanese!
Cheng Qianfan was also shocked and said in his heart. His intuition told him that this matter was not simple. Are the Japanese crazy? At this time, the attack defeated the ambassador to China!
This explosive news shocked everyone, and everyone left the venue one after another.
Cheng Qianfan also took the opportunity to leave.
Although he did not know the inside story of this matter, he must report to the Nanjing headquarters immediately after such a big thing happened.
Although Nanjing may have learned about the matter through other channels, what he should report must still be reported in a timely manner.
…
Father King Road.
Cheng Qianfan used the key to open the door of Zhou Ru's residence.
Lock the door.
Quickly take out the transmitter and send a message to Nanjing.
Didi didi.
Nanjing, Xufu Lane.
The red light of a telegraph machine that had been on for a long time flashed. Soon, the confidential officer who received the telegraph presented the telegram to Qi Wu.
When Qi Wu saw that it was the call from 'Blue Bird', he did not dare to neglect and knocked on the door of Dai Chunfeng's office with the telegram.
"Virgo, there's an urgent call from Shanghai's Blue Bird." Qi Wu said.
Dai Chunfeng took the message, opened the safe, took out the code book, and quickly translated the message.
"On his way to Shanghai, British Ambassador to China Hugo Gerson was bombed by Japanese military planes. His car was destroyed and people were seriously injured. All efforts are being made to rescue him."
Dai Chunfeng was shocked.
At this time, the secret telex from Shanghai Station also arrived, also reporting the matter.
Dai Chunfeng nodded secretly. He was worthy of being the 'blue bird' he valued. He was able to stand one step ahead of Shanghai Station. There were nearly a thousand people in Shanghai Station, but he was overwhelmed by Cheng Qianfan.
Dai Chunfeng was thinking about the significant impact this matter might have.
The Japanese attacked the British ambassador to China, which was a good thing for the government.
If the British and the Japanese turn against each other because of this incident, this will be good news for the government, which is fighting a tough war.
At this moment, Dai Chunfeng's expression changed drastically.
"Prepare the car and go to the leader's official residence." Dai Chunfeng almost roared.
He immediately remembered that according to the established plan, the commissioner should take Xu Gesen's car to the front line in Shanghai today.
Fortunately, the chairman of the committee had something to do today and canceled his scheduled trip. Otherwise...
Dai Chunfeng broke into cold sweat on his forehead.
…
Leader's official residence.
Chang Kaishen held the secret telegram presented by Dai Chunfeng, his face gloomy and his hands trembling.
Bang!
The Chairman grabbed the message with his backhand and slapped it heavily on the table.
"Mother Xipi!" the committee member was angry and yelled, "The Japanese are not here for Xu Gesen, they are here for someone like me!"
"The Japanese want to kill me!" Chang Kaishen stared at Dai Chunfeng and said, "The Japanese want to harm me!"
"How did the Japanese know that I was going to take Xu Gesen's car!" He asked Dai Chunfeng angrily.
Dai Chunfeng was sweating on his forehead. He didn't know how to answer the chairman.
He knew he would be scolded if he came, but he had to come and report as soon as possible.
"Yu Jin deserves to die." Dai Chunfeng said respectfully, "It's because Yu Jin didn't do his job well and the spy was never found."
After a pause and observing the chairman's expression, Dai Chunfeng whispered, "Maybe Director Xue found something..."
Hearing this, Chang Kaishen became even more angry, Xue Yingzong?
Dai Chunfeng received the news that Xu Gesen's car had been bombed, but Xue Yingzhen didn't come to report for a long time. It might as well be Dai Chunfeng.
"Where's Xue Yingzong?" Chang Kaishen shouted angrily, "Go, go, go and call Xue Yingzhen over."
About twenty minutes later, Xue Yingzhen came almost at a trot, and then he was greeted with a scolding.
"inability!"
"fool!"
"Fool!"
"What do you do for food?"
Xue Yingzhen was so scolded that he did not dare to raise his head. From the corner of his eye, he looked at Dai Chunfeng, who was standing upright and accompanying him in the scolding. Although he did not know the specific situation, Xue Yingzhen dared to conclude that it must be Dai Chunfeng, a villain who was making mistakes in front of the committee.
calumny!
Dai Chunfeng was respectful, said nothing, and obediently accompanied the scolding, but he sighed with satisfaction in his heart, and now——
