People are lazy. An old warlord who is used to enjoying a luxurious life will not be willing to live in an apartment with average conditions without special reasons.
There must be some reason that makes Zou Fengqi willing to temporarily give up his requirements for a living environment.
No matter what the reason is, it allows Zou Fengqi to temporarily endure the ordinary living environment, which shows that this reason is very important and valuable.
Following the order from 'Mr. Xiao', the Intelligence Group 2 of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group immediately took action.
One day passed.
Zou Fengqi stayed in the apartment that day and didn't go anywhere.
Two days have passed.
"Zou Fengqi went out today, and a car came to pick him up." Hao Zai reported.
"Where have you gone?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately.
"I checked and found that the car was made by Mitsui & Yoko Co.," Hao Tsai said. "There were relatively few cars on the road at that time. In order to avoid being exposed, we did not follow it."
"When did you come back?" Cheng Qianfan thought for a moment and asked.
"He went out for about three hours, but the car that brought him back was not the same car."
"Have you checked the condition of the car?"
"Not yet." Hao Zai said, "It's a new car, and the license plate was temporarily installed by myself."
"Private license plate." Cheng Qianfan nodded thoughtfully, "Go and check, this is a clue."
"Haozi is already investigating, and there should be news soon." Haozi said.
…
Cheng Qianfan nodded. Li Hao, the leader of the traffic team, was by no means a nepotist. Haozi was a little worse at literacy, but he was very sensitive to numbers and letter arrangement. It could be said that Li Hao had in his mind that almost most of the people registered in the French Concession were registered.
car license plates and those private license plate numbers that are 'allowed' to be on the road.
Yes, although the French Concession already has a vehicle license plate system, its implementation is not thorough.
Some powerful people and wealthy businessmen bought new cars. In order to show their specialness, they were not even willing to get a license plate, so they got a license plate and put it on themselves.
It can be said to be a majestic special license plate.
As for whether the patrol will impose fines on private license plates, it depends on the situation.
Even if the big boss's car is crossing the road sideways, the patrolman will turn a blind eye.
If there is a small car, the patrolmen will take a high look at it.
The car with its own license plate suddenly became a symbol of the untouchable boss in the concession.
Therefore, some "bad guys" and "intruders" find ways to buy a car, get their own license plates, and show off in the market. Sometimes they can even bluff the policemen into not questioning them.
However, this was all the case a few years ago. Nowadays, the management of license plates in the concession is stricter, and private license plates are no longer allowed on cars.
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan believes that the clues from the license plate are crucial:
If the opponent is a deck, it will be difficult to check.
This kind of car with a self-made license plate is either a new car purchased by a big shot, or a special car deceived and abducted by some friends in the world. As long as the patrol room wants to investigate, there will soon be news feedback:
In the former case, if you inquire inside the patrol room, you will naturally gain something.
In the latter case, as long as the police station speaks, some of the Sanguang Mazi will sell their friends in the world for drink money.
…
"Inspector, is it possible that the car is a Japanese car?" Hao Zai asked.
"It's unlikely." Cheng Qianfan shook his head.
The Japanese nation is very strange. When they face the Chinese who are temporarily weaker than them, they are arrogant and do things that break the bottom line of conscience and humanity. However, when facing countries that are stronger than them, or they have no plans to do so for the time being.
The offended forces will behave more disciplined:
This observance of rules is conditional. When they think they need to abide by the rules, they will behave very politely. On some occasions, the Japanese will behave aggressively, even revealing their insidious and cunning side.
Take car license plates as an example. Normal Japanese businesses, guild halls, even Japanese-funded schools, Japanese overseas Chinese, etc. will obediently apply for license plates, and very few use private license plates.
Vehicles owned by Japanese special agencies such as the Super High School Division are mostly under the name of Japanese trading companies and use normal license plates.
Pete expressed his inability to understand the duality of the Japanese:
Sometimes, these Japanese still obey the rules.
However, as Japan occupied Shanghai, even Japanese businessmen who had previously followed the rules began to show an aggressive side, constantly testing the power of "Europe's most powerful country" in Shanghai.
Cheng Qianfan had a feeling that the information about the car that took Zou Fengqi back to his apartment would bring him a surprise.
…
Chunfengdeyilou.
"Brother Fan, we found it." Li Hao took a sip of water and said to Cheng Qianfan.
"Take a breath and speak slowly." Cheng Qianfan chose the private room on the second floor. He glanced at the stage downstairs, where "Mu Guiying Takes Command" was being sung.
"Three cannon shots outside the camp were like thunder. I walked out of Tianbo Mansion to protect the country. I wore a golden crown on my temples, and I put on the iron armor from back then. The handsome flag floated into the clouds, with the big word "Mu"
Shake the universe."
"Okay!" Cheng Qianfan clapped and snapped his fingers at the waiter.
"Inspector Cheng is giving me ten flower baskets!" the waiter shouted happily.
Ten flower baskets are equivalent to fifty French coins, which is quite generous.
"That car belongs to Yiyuan Dog Running Park." Li Hao said, "The owner of the car is Ying Zhen, the deputy manager of the dog running track."
"Guan Yingzhen?" Cheng Qianfan tapped the table with his right fingers, looking at Qiao Chuntao who was singing on the stage downstairs, with a look of appreciation on his face.
He knew a little bit about Guan Yingzhen. He was quite famous in Shanghai. He was from Jiading and had quite a fortune. He had studied abroad in Citigroup. In the past two years, he had partnered with others to run a dog racing business near Yiyuan.
field.
"Why did Zou Fengqi come back in Guan Yingzhen's car?" Cheng Qianfan asked, "Did you find out anything?"
"Is it an appointment? Or is it a chance encounter? Is it a temporary appointment or a long-standing appointment? If it is a chance encounter, why did we meet by chance? Is it a traffic jam? The car broke down? Or Zou Fengqi and Guan Yingzhen went to the same place and happened to stop by when they came back.
Bring it back?" Cheng Qianfan spoke quickly, but his words were clear.
"I understand, I'll check it out soon." Li Hao nodded with a serious expression.
…
When leaving Chunfengdeyi Building, Cheng Qianfan looked back at the stage.
On ordinary days, the feeling Qiao Chuntao gave him was:
People are alive, but their hearts are dead.
The purpose of Taozi's life is to take revenge!
At this moment, looking at Qiao Chuntao on the stage, Cheng Qianfan felt that Taozi was alive. This was a flesh-and-blood Qiao Chuntao, with every frown and smile, and a charming look between his eyebrows!
Cheng Wenzao is from Zhejiang and likes to listen to Kun Opera and Peking Opera. Cheng Qianfan was influenced by his father and has also liked to listen to it since he was a child.
He is proud of this ancient opera. "Singing, chanting, doing and fighting" shows the skill, and "Sheng Dan Jing Mo Chou" has its own charm, beautiful costumes, beautiful figure, and beautiful singing.
Cheng Qianfan felt that Taozi had a chance to become a famous Qingyi.
It was the Japanese invaders who forced a big man in Tsing Yi to become a cold-blooded agent like a 'living dead'.
…
The car stopped moving.
"What's going on?" Cheng Qianfan, who was deep in thought, raised his head and asked.
"Brother Fan, there's a traffic jam." Li Hao said.
The concession was already "prosperous". After the Japanese occupied the Chinese community, a large number of Chinese citizens poured into the concession. The concession seemed to be even more prosperous, with frequent traffic jams.
This is mainly due to the clutter of various vehicles on the road. Valley
There are trams, cars, rickshaws, old-fashioned wheelbarrows, handcarts, and even horses.
The disorderly flow of various vehicles often causes congestion, and quarrels and even fights often occur.
To this end, the Concession has specially promulgated the vehicle driving management regulations of the Ministry of Industry and Industry, which stipulates many speed limits and traffic restrictions.
For example, the French Concession in Shanghai clearly stipulates that vehicles cannot exceed twenty miles per hour, otherwise they will be fined.
"Go and take a look." Cheng Qianfan said.
"yes!"
Li Hao got out of the car and asked a passerby. After a while, Li Hao came back.
"Brother Fan, it's those Annan people who are trying to steal the note." Li Hao said, "A coachman didn't want to let them take the note away, so he started to quarrel with them. The Annan people hit the heads of both the coachman and the passengers with batons.
Blood flowed, and the Annan people not only arrested the coachman, but also the passenger who tried to resist. The other coachmen complained, and a confrontation broke out."
…
The so-called carjacking is when the policeman uses the pretext of violating traffic rules to confiscate the license plate of a rickshaw, and then forces the driver to spend money to redeem it.
The French Concession authorities stipulate that each patrol officer on duty must obtain at least 35 licenses per month.
Not only rickshaws but also tricycles are also being pried.
For example, if a rickshaw is caught with a ticket, the fine will be 50 cents per ticket, and a tricycle will be fined 1 yuan per ticket. (PS1)
The Hua arresters are better, and the Annan patrol is the worst. They greatly exceed the task of prying off the notice every month.
When these Annan patrol officers saw an empty vehicle on the road, whether it was a rickshaw or a tricycle, regardless of whether it was illegal or not, they would immediately forcibly detain it and pry it away to take notice.
If the rickshaw driver argued with him, he would often be severely beaten, then imprisoned in a police station, and eventually even lose his money before he could be fished out.
Therefore, in the French Concession, the most notorious ones are the Annan patrols. They are as famous as the red-headed Asan in the public concession and are the most hated by ordinary people.
Cheng Qianfan frowned.
"Go and tell those Annan people to get lost! Don't block the road!" Cheng Qianfan said coldly.
"yes!"
…
"No, no, no, we can't let him go." Annan patrol officer Ruan Zhiqi, who was leading the team, shook his head. "This driver injured someone and he has to pay compensation."
"Why?"
"You were the one who hit me first!"
"Ahuaila was tired and stopped here to take a breath. You came up to arrest him, tried to pry away his note, and even injured the guest. Why?"
A middle-aged driver shouted, and all the drivers fell silent.
"How much do you think the compensation will be?" asked the middle-aged driver. He knew that if the stalemate continued like this, he would suffer the consequences.
"Fifty French coins!" Ruan Zhiqi raised five fingers.
The coachmen were in an uproar. They didn't expect that Annan's patrolman not only beat him up, but also opened his mouth like a lion.
"Officer Ruan, please stop joking," the middle-aged driver said with a smile.
"I'm not kidding." Ruan Zhiyuan smiled happily, "Now it's eighty French coins! If you don't have money, you will seize the car and arrest the person!"
He just liked to see the painful and helpless expressions of these ignorant Chinese people after they were humiliated and deliberately tortured by him.
Li Hao looked at Ruan Zhiyuan coldly. He didn't believe that Ruan Zhiyuan didn't know who he was. This Annan brat did this on purpose, deliberately not giving him face, in other words not giving face to Brother Fan.
"Ruan Zhiyuan, let him go and get out of the way." Li Hao said with a serious face.
"Don't say it's you, even if Cheng Qianfan is here, I still won't let him go." Ruan Zhiyuan said with a sneer.
…
"Ten seconds, slap yourself three times and get out." Cheng Qianfan strode over and walked over with a cold face.
"Inspector Cheng." Seeing Cheng Qianfan, Ruan Zhiyuan's expression changed and a smile appeared on his face.
"Five seconds left!" Inspector Xiao Cheng flipped the lighter wheel, lit the cigarette, took a puff, and glanced at Ruan Zhiyuan contemptuously.
"Cheng Qianfan, don't bully others too much." Ruan Zhiyuan blushed, gritted his teeth and roared, and then he was kicked to the ground by Li Hao.
Li Hao rushed forward and kicked Ruan Zhiyuan down as he was about to get up. He sat on him and slapped his mouth hard.
The remaining seven or eight Annan patrol officers were about to rush forward and take action.
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out.
Everyone at the scene was stunned, and then screamed and the crowd fled in all directions.
The rickshaw driver and passengers caught by the Annan patrol took the opportunity to break free, pull up the rickshaw, and the passengers got on. The driver desperately pulled the rickshaw and blended into the crowd to escape.
Seeing Ah Hai break away from the arrest and escape in a rickshaw, Cheng Qianfan breathed a sigh of relief.
He just got out of the car and took a glance, and saw that the people surrounded by Annan patrolmen with bloody heads included Ah Hai, and the rickshaw driver was the comrade of Kang Erniu.
Despite the tense situation, Cheng Qianfan was not only worried but also a little bit dumbfounded:
This Ah Hai's several accidents were basically not his own fault. Once he was implicated by Fang Muheng, once because of a few anti-Japanese leaflets, and this time he was arrested by the Annan patrol who wanted to extort money.
Why do bad things always happen to him?
…
The Annan patrol officers were frightened by Inspector Xiao Cheng's shot. They all stood there and looked over blankly.
"He doesn't dare to shoot." A shorter Annan patrolman shouted, "Go and save Brother Ruan."
"Bang!" Cheng Qianfan shot the man on the shoulder, and the man screamed and fell to the ground rolling.
At this time, all the Annan people were frightened. They couldn't understand why Cheng Qianfan dared to really shoot at people. They were Annan patrolmen!
No matter how powerful you are, Inspector Cheng, do you really dare to shoot?
Toot toot.
Datulu blew his whistle and ran over with a pair of uniformed policemen.
"Inspector." Da Toulu saluted.
"Surround them up!" Cheng Qianfan waved his hand.
Da Toulu and others immediately raised their guns and pointed them at the panicked Annan patrolman.
"Take them all back." Cheng Qianfan said with a gloomy face.
This incident happened suddenly, and he could not just watch A Hai and the two being arrested by the Annan patrol. A Hai's identity could not withstand in-depth investigation.
The situation was urgent and he had no choice but to make this decision.
This is not a bad strategy that means he will be exposed.
The Annan people were rude and harsh, and did not take Inspector Cheng Cheng seriously.
Cheng Qianfan never came forward in advance, and quietly watched Ruan Zhiyuan deliberately slighting Li Hao during the game. He kept waiting for Ruan Zhiyuan to say something even more arrogant.
As expected, he was waiting for it.
In this way, there is nothing suspicious about Cheng Qianfan, a young, energetic and popular man who shot and wounded someone in anger. It is basically in line with Cheng Qianfan's current temperament. It just adds a bit of domineering reputation and will be punished.
Just a punishment.
At this moment, Li Hao, who had beaten Ruan Zhiyuan, walked up to Cheng Qianfan and handed a photo to Cheng Qianfan.
"Inspector, this was found on this guy."
Cheng Qianfan took it and took a look, his expression changed drastically.
