Tong Xueyong was frightened by Hiroyuki Kikube's cold eyes, and quickly bowed and nodded: "Yes, Director Kikube."
Cheng Qianfan held the wine glass in his hand, took a sip, and watched the scene with a smile.
In his mind, he was thinking whether Kikube Hiroyuki had another plan for arranging Tong Xueyong to interrogate Wang Kangnian, or was it just out of bad taste?
Tong Xueyong was originally arrested by Wang Kangnian, and he never gave in after being tortured. In the end, the Japanese used Tong Xueyong's daughter as a threat, and finally forced Tong Xueyong to rebel and betray comrade "Daffodil".
So now, Kikube Kano arranged for Tong Xueyong to torture Wang Kangnian to satisfy some evil taste?
wrong.
Cheng Qianfan shook his head.
Perhaps it was precisely because Tong Xueyong was a traitor to the Red Party that the Japanese deliberately arranged for Tong Xueyong to interrogate Wang Kangnian——
Wang Kangnian is "Chen Zhou". On this basis, it is impossible for the Japanese to completely trust the Red Party traitor Tong Xueyong. This is testing Tong Xueyong!
You must know that although Tong Xueyong confessed to Narcissus, Wang Kangnian's operation to capture Narcissus failed.
Here, Tong Xueyong had a wet towel wrapped on her hand and grabbed the handle of the soldering iron.
Lifting the soldering iron, he glanced at Wang Kangnian, who was tied to the torture rack, and stretched the red soldering iron towards Wang Kangnian's body with trembling hands.
Seeing the red soldering iron getting closer and closer to the exposed skin of Wang Kangnian's chest, Wang Kangnian tried his best to twist his body, with a look of horror in his eyes.
"Brother Tong, you..."
Tong Xueyong had a sullen face, and without giving Wang Kangnian a chance to shout, he pressed the soldering iron firmly on Wang Kangnian's body.
The red soldering iron came into deep contact with the person's skin and muscles, and a smell of lake mixed with the smell of roasted meat spread out. Wang Kangnian let out a scream, and then fainted.
Tong Xueyong gritted his teeth and poured a ladle of salt water down. Wang Kangnian screamed and was "awakened".
He picked up the whip casually and was about to continue the torture.
"I'll do it." Cheng Qianfan stood up and said.
Tong Xueyong subconsciously looked at Hiroyuki Kikube.
Kikube Hiroo nodded.
…
Tong Xueyong handed the whip dipped in salt water to Cheng Qianfan, but Cheng Qianfan did not take it. With a cigarette in his mouth, he walked directly to the execution frame and grabbed Wang Kangnian's hair with his left hand.
He took out the cigarette in his mouth with his right hand and pressed it directly on Wang Kangnian's face.
Wang Kangnian let out a painful howl, and struggled desperately as if he was swinging.
As soon as Cheng Qianfan let go, Wang Kangnian lowered his head like a limp noodle.
He shook his head, took out his cigarette holder, took out a cigarette and bit it in his mouth, turned around and picked up the red-hot iron in the charcoal stove, and was about to light the cigarette, but he glanced at Wang Kangnian, suddenly took a few steps back, and then
Then he lit the cigarette in his mouth with a soldering iron.
Wang Kangnian raised his head, his heart full of regret.
Just now, he was already prepared. If Cheng Qianfan, that damn bastard, dared to pretend to light a cigarette with a soldering iron in front of him, he would bang his head against it with all his strength, and the red-hot soldering iron would burn Cheng Qianfan's face.
, just imagining it made his body tremble with excitement.
He had estimated the distance, and if he stretched his head with all his strength, he would be able to get it.
But I didn't expect this guy to be so vigilant and cunning.
"Tell me." Cheng Qianfan exhaled a puff of smoke.
"I'm not 'Chen Zhou'!" Wang Kangnian said hoarsely, holding back the pain.
Cheng Qianfan shook his head, with a cruel and gloating smile on his face. He turned to look at Kano Kikube: "Tsk, tsk, Kikube-kun, this is the Red Party, the stubborn Red Party."
Then, he grabbed Wang Kangnian's hair again and said, "Captain Wang, you have to understand that there are only two results if you enter here, be killed or die."
Wang Kangnian's eyes flashed with fear, but he seemed to be forcing himself to look at Cheng Qianfan.
This seemed to anger Cheng Qianfan.
He took the whip from Tong Xueyong's hand and whipped him seven or eight times in a row as if to vent his anger. Wang Kangnian fainted again as he howled miserably.
"Continue!" Cheng Qianfan threw the whip over, and Tong Xueyong took it. He looked at Kikube Hiroo, who nodded. Tong Xueyong woke up Wang Kangnian with another ladle of water, and then continued to whip:
Recruit or not?
Recruit or not?!
…
Cheng Qianfan walked back to the small wooden table and saw Kano Kikube pinching a few peanuts in his hand and slowly putting them into his mouth. He leaned against the back of the chair and stared at Tong Xueyong, observing him.
demeanor.
"Do you suspect there is something wrong with Tong Xueyong?" Cheng Qianfan asked in Japanese.
"If Wang Kangnian has no problem, then the possibility that Tong Xueyong, a Red Party traitor, has a problem is extremely small. Now that Wang Kangnian has a problem, it is difficult to ensure that Tong Xueyong has no problem." Kikube Hirooo said.
He clinked glasses with Miyazaki Kentaro, "The section chief is re-investigating the case that arrested the Red Party's Narcissus."
"What did you find out?"
"The section chief suspects that the grenade in your briefcase was placed by someone sent by Wang Kangnian."
"I have long said that Wang Kangnian wanted to harm me..." Cheng Qianfan said immediately, and then his expression changed, "Do you have evidence?"
At that time, he insisted in front of Sanbonjiro that Wang Kangnian wanted to blow him up. However, after all, this was just his "family opinion" and there was no substantial evidence. In the eyes of Sanbonjiro and others, because Kentaro Miyazaki was the same
Regarding the enmity between Wang Kangnian and Kentaro Miyazaki, his remarks should be quite subjective.
"The section chief was very interested in Zhuang Zeyi. He carefully studied the file of the case and discovered a very small detail." Kikube Hiroo said.
"Zhuang Zegu?" Cheng Qianfan frowned, "I have read this file..."
"The Party Affairs Investigation Division secretly notified the patrol room to arrest Zhuang Ze, and the patrol found some physical evidence from the Shuanglongfang apartment where Zhuang Ze lived temporarily, including some seemingly inconspicuous items," Kikube Hiroo said.
"What is it?" Cheng Qianfan also became interested and asked.
"A disassembled alarm clock." Kikube Hiroo said, "We managed to get this alarm clock from the evidence room of the patrol room. After inspection, we found the problem."
He clinked glasses with Kentaro Miyazaki and said, "There are tape residues on the gears and other residues."
"Time bomb!" Cheng Qianfan suddenly showed a shocked expression, "Someone once tried to make a time bomb in that room to blow up Zhuang Ze."
"Exactly." Hiroyuki Kikube nodded, "Our theory is that due to some unexpected circumstances, the plan to kill Zhuang Ze with a time bomb failed. The bomb was taken away, but the alarm clock was not taken away in time."
Cheng Qianfan showed a look of contemplation and admiration, "As expected of the section chief, he was able to discover such tiny details that I didn't notice."
He handed a cigarette to Hiroyuki Kikube, lit a cigarette himself, took a puff and said, "Wang Kangnian is the leader of the Party Affairs Investigation Department. He is responsible for arresting Zhuang Ze. He is also the most likely to approach and take advantage of the opportunity."
The person who killed Zhuang Ze, that is to say, the person who wanted to create a time bomb to kill Zhuang Ze was probably Wang Kangnian."
"Section Chief, I agree with you." Kikube Hiroo said, "For people like us, it is easy to have behavioral inertia in doing things. Wang Kangnian is used to using bombs."
"So, Wang Kangnian secretly swapped my briefcase with one with a grenade hanging on it. If I hadn't been lucky, Wang Kangnian would have successfully killed me on the one hand, and on the other hand, he could have used this as a warning to 'Daffodil'.
"
"The first purpose is to warn Narcissus. As long as the grenade goes off, this purpose is achieved. As for whether it can kill you, this is just a passing consideration." Kikube Hiroo said.
…
Wang Kangnian's screams also stopped abruptly at this time.
"Why did you stop?" Cheng Qianfan raised his head and looked at Tong Xueyong and Wang Kangnian.
"Captain Wang fainted again." Tong Xueyong said with a smile.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Tong Xueyong, turned around and asked Kikube Hiroyuki in Japanese, "Tong Xueyong will doubt my identity, and I cannot keep this person."
"If there are no problems with this person, the section chief plans to reuse him," Kikube Hirooo said.
Regardless of whether Wang Kangnian recruits him or not, such a person will definitely be executed because he is too dangerous and untrustworthy.
Under this situation, the detective brigade was leaderless and disorganized. The Special High School planned to support a new captain, and Tong Xueyong, who was very capable, came into Sanbonjiro's sight.
It is necessary to find out before re-employing, and you cannot promote while sick. This is one of the reasons why Sanbonjiro ordered a focused screening and inspection of Tong Xueyong.
"Don't worry, Miyazaki-kun, the section chief has already made arrangements." Seeing Kentaro Miyazaki frowning and wanting to say something, Hiroyuki Kikube explained.
Cheng Qianfan nodded and said nothing more.
"It is said that the Red Party members are all stubborn and die-hard elements. It is indeed true." He glanced at Wang Kangnian who had passed out and said with a sneer.
At the same time, he was also surprised in his heart. Previously, Wang Kangnian was caught by the Japanese when he was still in the Party Affairs Investigation Department. It was said that he only persisted for twenty or thirty minutes before speaking. Now he actually endured half a day of severe torture and refused to tell the truth.
Could it be that he is actually a tough guy?
"'Chen Zhou' is very cunning." Hiroyuki Kikube shook his head and said, "After being tortured for half an hour, Wang Kangnian said he had done it."
He glanced at the unconscious Wang Kangnian and said with a sneer, "He admitted that he wanted to secretly get in touch with the Chongqing Central Government again, but he firmly refused to admit that he was the Red Party's 'Chenzhou'."
"After that, no matter how he was tortured, Wang Kangnian still refused to admit that he was 'Chen Zhou'." Kikube Hiroo said.
He looked grim and said, "This person is very smart and tries to hide the truth."
‘This is because he is really not Chen Zhou’, Cheng Qianfan said in his heart.
What’s more, Wang Kangnian clearly knows that once he ‘confesses’ that he is Chen Zhou, he will definitely die!
It is impossible for the Japanese to let go of such a "red ace agent" who has been hidden in the Party Affairs Investigation Department and the Japanese secret service.
This kind of person is so dangerous!
…
At this moment, an agent from the Special High School came in and walked up to Hiroyuki Kikube and whispered a few words.
"Miyazaki-kun, I'm really sorry. A new suspect has been brought. Your identity is confidential and you need to avoid it," Kikube Hiroo said.
"I should be the one thanking Kikube for his attentiveness." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
Then, he stood up and said goodbye to Kikube Hiroo. When leaving, Cheng Qianfan looked at Tong Xueyong, who bent down slightly and showed a reserved smile.
Not long after Cheng Qianfan left, agents from the Special High School Division escorted several people from the detective brigade over.
A group of five people lined up and stood still.
When the five people saw Captain Wang Kangnian being tied to the torture rack, they were all shocked and even more panicked.
Kikube Hiroo glanced at Tong Xueyong.
Tong Xueyong licked her dry lips and stepped forward.
He looked around at several people and said: "Brothers, the Locust Army has found out that Wang Kangnian is a Red Party member with ulterior motives who is lurking within the Detective Brigade. It has also mastered the fact that Wang Kangnian has accomplices in the Detective Brigade."
He frowned, with a sullen face, and paused before continuing, "To tell you the truth, the Locust Army is convinced that Wang Kangnian's accomplice is among the five of you. If you are a man, please come forward."
The five people looked at each other with frightened expressions on their faces.
"The Locust Army said that if no one surrenders, everyone will die!"
Tong Xueyong’s voice was stern, “Don’t the Red Party claim to save the working people? Could it be that the Red Party says one thing and does another, but they have the guts to do it but not the guts to admit it, so they just want to implicate innocent people, right?”
At this moment, one of the five people raised his hand, "Assistant Tong, I want to report!"
"Brother Jian, please tell me!" Tong Xueyong was overjoyed, "The report was successful and the Locust Army will reward you heavily."
"I don't know if Xiao Ou is a member of the Red Party." Brother Jian said, "But Xiao Ou is a person sent by the Central Unification Committee when he returns to Shanghai this time."
Tong Xueyong was startled and turned to look at Kikube Hiroo.
"What's wrong?" Hiroyuki Kikube asked coldly.
"Xiao Ou is not among these five people." Tong Xueyong said quickly with sweat on his forehead, "Xiao Ou is not Wang Kangnian's confidant, so..."
Kikube Hiroyuki's face was gloomy, and he waved his hand at his subordinates, "Catch Xiaoou immediately!"
"Hai!"
…
Kikube Hiroo watched his men leave. He turned his head and glanced at the five people, his cold eyes passing over them like knives.
"There are still Japanese haters among you." He waved his hand, and more than a dozen of his men immediately raised their guns.
"Thirty seconds, surrender within thirty seconds, otherwise -" Kikube Hiroo's face was ferocious, "They will all die!"
The thirty seconds are quickly coming to an end.
"Nineteen eight seven six five forty three..." Hiroyuki Kikube's cold-blooded voice echoed in the torture chamber.
"I've done it, I've done it." A man suddenly knelt down, his whole body shaking as if he was shaking.
"Say!" Kikube Hiroo pointed his gun directly at this person.
"I, I am a member of the lurking team of the Shanghai District Intelligence Section of the Central Unification Committee..."
…
A few minutes later, in the courtyard of the Special High School, all the agents gathered urgently.
"In Room 206 of the Tang'an Ballroom, some Central Command personnel are having a secret meeting." Hiroyuki Kikube said in a deep voice. He glanced at his subordinates and said, "Try to capture as many as possible alive."
Agents of the Special High School Class, armed with live ammunition, surrounded the Tang'an Dance Hall.
Gunshots were fired, but no resistance was encountered. Only one shot was fired during the entire arrest, and the arrest went smoothly.
Soon, four tightly tied men were escorted out of the chartered room on the second floor of the dance hall by agents from the Special High School.
In addition to these four men, there were also two crying women.
"What's going on?" Hiroyuki Kikube, who was directing outside the dance hall, asked his subordinates.
"The four men are from the Central Government and have already confessed. They were playing mahjong when we rushed in. The two women were invited by them to accompany them and sing."
