Chapter 415 Three brothers enter Shanghai on a rainy night (please vote)
Cheng Qianfan reported to Sanbonjiro the failure of the patrol room’s operation to arrest the red party members of Guanghua Bookstore on Feiton Road.
Sanbonjiro looked at Kentaro Miyazaki seriously for a while before speaking, "Lu Hu suspects that Zhong Guohao is the leaker, what do you think?"
"Impossible." Cheng Qianfan said firmly.
Sanbonjiro looked at Kentaro Miyazaki hesitantly:
Miyazaki is a despicable guy at heart and doesn't trust the Chinese.
"My subordinates arranged for Zhong Guohao to go to the armored convoy to request a vehicle, and at the same time secretly arranged for Hou Pingliang to follow, but no abnormal behavior was found in Zhong Guohao." Cheng Qianfan said with a proud look on his face.
Facing Sanbonjiro's questioning gaze, he continued, "The woman Hou Pingliang liked died in an assassination attempt by Chongqing. He was extremely loyal to the empire."
Sanbonjiro nodded. He remembered this incident. It was the incident when Ruan Zhiyuan was assassinated by the Secret Service. The woman Hou Pingliang liked was the maid next to Ruan Zhiyuan's woman Lou Lianxiang.
At the same time, Sanbonjiro suddenly understood.
So that's it. He was just wondering why Miyazaki Kentaro trusted Zhong Guohao so much. It turned out that this guy was secretly prepared.
"The Feiton Road incident is enough to prove that there is a red party underground party inside the patrol room." Sanbonjiro said solemnly, "Miyazaki, find these shady rats."
"Hai." Cheng Qianfan saluted respectfully and left.
He did not leave the Special High School, but went directly to Araki Harima's office.
…
"Araki-kun, did Lu Hu sneak up on you?" Cheng Qianfan looked unhappy and Pi Tou asked.
Araki Harima looked at his gloomy friend, first surprised and stunned, and then he understood how White House Zaki Kentaro learned about this matter.
The section chief must have asked Miyazaki about Lu Hu's suspicion of Zhong Guohao. With Miyazaki's intelligence, he naturally guessed that Lu Hu reported the matter to him in private.
Regarding Lu Hu's secret work for the empire, Miyazaki-kun knew about it, or even though he was a little dissatisfied, he still had to acquiesce.
"Miyazaki-kun, try my new good wine." Araki Harima said with a smile.
Cheng Qianfan snorted, but did not refuse. He sat down directly and started drinking without anyone noticing.
Seeing Miyazaki Kentaro acting like this, Araki Harima was relieved.
He knew that Miyazaki-kun might be really angry, but the anger was probably not directed at him.
as expected.
"Lu Hu reported to me that he suspected Fu Zhiyi, and I will report to you that he suspected Zhong Guohao." Cheng Qianfan took a sip of sake, savored it carefully, his eyes lit up, and he said with admiration, "It's Kyoto's Zuo Zuomu sake."
.”
Araki Harima said with a smile, "Miyazaki-kun is indeed a good drinker. He drank it in just one sip."
"Wine, sex, and money are all indispensable for a hearty life." Cheng Qianfan looked slightly proud, then his face changed, and he pointed at Araki Harima and laughed and scolded, "Araki-kun almost changed the subject."
As he spoke, his expression was gloomy, "There is an old saying in China that Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was meant for Pei Gong - Lu Hu didn't know that I was an imperial agent. On the surface, he suspected Zhong Guohao, but in fact he came for Cheng Qianfan."
Araki Harima secretly admired that people who know how to do business are said to have bright minds, and Miyazaki-kun is just like that.
"Lu Hu said he believed Cheng Qianfan was fine," Araki Harima said.
"Despicable and cunning Chinese people." Cheng Qianfan sneered and cursed.
If Datou Lu really believed that Cheng Qianfan was fine and loyal to him, or that he had no other ulterior motives, he should have secretly reported the matter to him and expressed his doubts about Hao Zai instead of secretly asking Harima Araki.
Report and expose.
"Does Fu Zhiyi have a problem?" Araki Harima asked.
Lu Hu reported to Miyazaki-kun that he suspected Fu Zhiyi, and Miyazaki-kun would definitely arrange for someone to investigate given his prudence.
"Nothing suspicious has been found on Fu Zhiyi for the time being." Cheng Qianfan said casually, "However, Chinese people are cunning and good at disguising. I will arrange for people to continue to pay attention to Fu Zhiyi."
Araki Harima nodded and then asked, "Is there any problem with Zhong Guohao?"
Miyazaki-kun was able to come to him angrily and confidently to "ask for justice", which obviously shows that he has clearly reported to the section chief that there is no problem with Zhong Guohao.
"For the Chinese people, my principle is that you can use it, but you must be careful." Cheng Qianfan smiled proudly, "Zhong Guohao is being watched, there is no problem."
"Miyazaki-kun is impeccable in his work." Araki Harima praised.
"My qualifications are mediocre, far behind Araki-kun, so I can only be more cautious." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
Araki Harima laughed loudly, raised his wine glass and clinked it with Kentaro Miyazaki.
No wonder the section chief admires Miyazaki-kun so much. His good friend's ability to flatter him is really good, but it's just such a shallow pat, which is so comfortable.
…
That afternoon.
Feiton Road.
Two cars parked at the entrance of the alley next to Guanghua Bookstore.
Several bodyguards got out of the car at the front and guarded the cars behind.
Patrolman Lin Xiangying of the second patrol trotted over and opened the car door, "Vice President Cheng."
"How's the situation?" 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' wore sunglasses on his nose. He tilted his head and one of his subordinates handed him a cigarette. He tilted his head again and another of his subordinates flicked a lighter and lit the cigarette.
"Nothing unusual." Lin Xiangying said.
Lin Xiangying, as the name suggests, is from Hunan Province.
"Let's go take a look." Cheng Qianfan said calmly.
"yes."
The door of Guanghua Bookstore was open, and there was a boy sweeping the floor with a broom at the door.
"Affix the seal." Cheng Qianfan said with a calm face.
"Mr. Cheng, don't you need to guard me anymore?" Lin Xiangying asked in a low voice.
"Just wait and see." Cheng Qianfan yelled, "The reason for waiting is because the rabbit is stupid enough, but the Red Party is not stupid."
As he spoke, he pointed at the man who was sweeping the floor at the door of the bookstore and cursed, "Who asked you to show up and sweep the floor like this?"
"Report to Vice President Cheng, it was ordered by Deputy Inspector Fu." The man quickly saluted and said.
"Idiot." 'Ms. Xiao Cheng' scolded.
"For a secret site like this of the Red Party, everyone from the boss to the clerk is carefully selected. If you arrange for such a new face to sweep the floor at the door, doesn't it mean that you are telling them that something happened here?" Cheng Qianfan
Seeing Lin Xiangying still confused, she held back her anger and taught.
"Congratulations, Mr. Cheng." Lin Xiangying immediately showed a look of great reverence, "I can't figure this out even if I try hard."
Cheng Qianfan stared at Lin Xiangying. After a while, he laughed and cursed, "Flattery!"
"Everything I say comes from the bottom of my heart." Lin Xiangying followed up in two steps and said in a low voice, "My admiration for Mr. Cheng is like the overflowing water of the Huangpu River..."
"Did Fu Zhiyi say why he arranged for someone to clean outside?" Cheng Qianfan interrupted Lin Xiangying's flattery and asked.
"I didn't say, I just obey the orders of Deputy Inspector Fu." Lin Xiangying said sternly, "My subordinates only know to obey the orders of the superior."
Cheng Qianfan took another deep look at Lin Xiangying, this guy is a talent.
He nodded slightly.
After taking another two steps, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Where is Fu Zhiyi?"
"Deputy Inspector Fu came to inspect in the morning. Someone came to see Deputy Inspector Fu and said that his family had a cold. Before Deputy Inspector Fu left, he ordered his subordinates to take charge of the scene."
As he spoke, he added, "Pippi is the son of Deputy Inspector Fu."
"When Fu Zhiyi comes, tell him to go to my office tomorrow and I want to hear his report on the progress of the survey." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice.
"yes."
Cheng Qianfan opened the cotton curtain of the bookstore and entered.
He flipped through the books in the bookcase with great interest.
Came to the back room again.
This is the residence of Comrade Wang Jun.
Because they wanted to trap and kill the red party members who had taken advantage of themselves, the bookstore in the front was still in order, but the back room had been turned into a mess.
Looking at the mess all over the ground.
The iron pot was also smashed and the dishes were broken all over the floor.
Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly.
Things have changed and people have changed, and he felt a little melancholy in his heart.
"What did you find?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"The owner of Guanghua Bookstore is Ji Xiaoliang." Lin Xiangying took the business note of Guanghua Bookstore and showed it to Vice President Cheng.
Cheng Qianfan took the business note and looked through it.
This business note is in vertical format.
The front is the main text.
On the far right side of the text: Business note from the patrol house in the French Concession, Xingzhi No. 0515.
Content part: According to businessman Ji Xiaoliang, now 31 years old and a native of Wuhu, Anhui Province, he applied to open a Guanghua bookstore for business. After investigation, there were no discrepancies, and the joint venture issued a license.
Firm information: owner name, opening address, capital amount, business level, opening date, etc.
Behind it is the personal seal of Clarkson, the police officer's ID card.
Below the business name information is a one-inch black and white photo of the applicant.
On the far left is the date of issuance, stamped with the official seal of His Excellency Mr. Ferguson, Chief of Police of the Patrol Room.
The opposite side of the business note is the precautions.
Note: This pass cannot be lent or transferred to others; this pass must be hung in a suitable place or on a wall that is easily visible for inspection; this pass must not be damaged or obliterated, and violators will be punished according to law; the owner of this pass is not allowed to impersonate or
Violators who add words or alter handwriting without permission will be punished according to law.
Cheng Qianfan weighed the business note in his hand and frowned in thought.
"Go and check if there is Ji Xiaoliang." He ordered.
"clear."
Logically speaking, those applying for a business note need to have proof of household registration in the French Concession, which means they also need to have requirements for the length of time they have lived in the French Concession. However, there are policies and countermeasures.
Even if you are a non-resident, you can apply for a business note first and then apply for a new household registration certificate.
All you need is enough money.
If this Ji Xiaoliang already has a household registration certificate, it means that this person has lived in the French Concession for many years. As long as he lives here, his neighbors will eventually know about him, and there are traces of him.
If there is no household registration certificate, or a household registration certificate is issued later, it means that the person has not been in Shanghai for a long time.
"Check the relevant photos to see if this person applied for a household registration certificate under another name two years ago." Cheng Qianfan ordered Lin Xiangying again.
He 'remembered' what Da Toulu reported that Luo Zizi said he had met the owner of Guanghua Bookstore more than two years ago.
"yes!"
…
Yuchun River.
The soup pool is filled with mist.
"It's a rainy day and it's not good. Come and loosen the bones." Lu Dazhang lay down on the wooden couch and shouted to Master Songgu.
"Okay." Master Songgu took a few puffs of cigarette. He took a look at the cigarette butt, which seemed to be a bit long. He was reluctant to throw it away, so he carefully pressed it out and put the cigarette butt into a tin box.
After these cigarette butts are disassembled, the tobacco inside can be taken out and used to roll cigarettes and smoke them yourself.
"You're new here, right? You're good at craftsmanship." Lu Dazhang called out comfortably and asked.
"The little one just came to Shanghai from northern Jiangsu to beg for food. He relies on the nobles to appreciate his food." Master Song Gu said with a flattering smile.
"I'm not a noble person." Lu Dazhang laughed loudly. He moved his head and wanted to observe the surrounding environment, but because he had gained weight recently and was suffering from loose bones, he couldn't turn corners.
"There is no one else." Master Song Gu said.
"Hey, the craftsmanship is really good." Lu Dazhang whispered, "Better than Comrade Dandelion's craftsmanship."
"I taught Lao Wang his craftsmanship," Fang Jinghua said with a smile.
"Has Comrade Wang Jun left Shanghai?" Lu Dazhang asked.
"The small steamer we boarded at noon." Fang Jinghua said, "It's his fault. It would have been someone else who was in such a hurry and couldn't leave."
Comrade Wang Jun's main task is to serve as the special traffic officer between the French Concession Special Party Group and the Shanghai Red Party. He does not have many other tasks on hand, so he can evacuate at any time without too many worries.
This was also the advice Comrade Peng and Ou gave to their successors after they left:
The traffic officer responsible for contacting Comrade Huo Miao had better have limited separation from the Shanghai Red Party. This is for safety reasons. After all, the less contact with various parties, the safer it is. Another consideration is that if something goes wrong, he can escape in time.
If so, it is easier to escape, and even if you cannot escape in time, you can control the impact within a smaller range.
"The incident happened suddenly and the situation is extremely urgent. For safety reasons, Comrade Dandelion must evacuate." Lu Dazhang said.
Comrade Huo Miao directly "ordered" Comrade Wang Jun to evacuate. In fact, Comrade Wang Jun's party membership, seniority, and rank were higher than those of Cheng Qianfan, and Comrade Wang Jun's organizational relationship was with the Shanghai Red Party.
If the evacuation was really ordered, it was Fang Jinghua himself who gave the order. Strictly speaking, Cheng Qianfan's move was considered an act of escaping, and Lu Dazhang was explaining and justifying Cheng Qianfan.
Fang Jinghua nodded, "I understand."
He pressed the ridge bones skillfully and said, "Although Comrade Huo Miao is young, he is a proven old comrade. He handled this matter very decisively and in a timely manner. I support his decision."
Hearing what Fang Jinghua said, Lu Dazhang breathed a sigh of relief.
"We have already established a line with the Tan Mansion here." Lu Dazhang said, "The next step is to meet directly with Tan Pinggong and agree on matters related to the delivery of the donation and the evacuation of Shanghai."
"Very good. Thank you to the comrades of the special party branch for their preliminary work." Fang Jinghua nodded happily, "It is not appropriate for you to meet with them. Leave the follow-up work to us."
This was agreed upon by both parties. The special party branch in the French Concession used their special relationship to establish contact with Tan Pinggong's government, and then the Shanghai Red Party quickly took over.
It is not impossible for the Shanghai Red Party to establish contact with the Tan Mansion, but it just requires longer preparation and time.
And the longer it is delayed, the more likely it is that changes will occur.
Now this "arrangement method" highlights three words, one is the word "quick", and the other two words are "confidential".
…
Almost at about the same time.
Comrade Xiong Jiashang of the Shanghai Red Party Working Committee welcomed the comrades who came up from the team in his secret residence.
"Comrade Yu Chang, welcome." Xiong Jiashang shook hands with the other party happily.
She couldn't help but look at Comrade Yu Chang a few more times. She felt that this comrade seemed familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before, but she couldn't remember it for a while.
"Minister Xiong, this is Comrade Chen Kewen." 'Yu Chang' pointed to the man next to him and introduced him.
"Hello, Comrade Chen Kewen." Xiong Jiashang's expression was strange, but he soon returned to normal.
She recognized Comrade Chen Kewen as Fang Muheng, the eldest son of the Fang family from the Guohua Food Factory. The Fang family's wife was a target of the anti-Japanese united front. She had seen a group photo at the Fang family, which included Fang Muheng, the eldest son of the Fang family.
"Minister Xiong, this is Deputy Company Commander Huang Zhongyuan of the Advanced Detachment of the Jiangnan Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army of the New Fourth Army." Comrade 'Yu Chang' pointed to another person next to him.
"Hello, Minister Xiong, Huang Zhongyuan is reporting to you." Huang Zhongyuan saluted Xiong Jiashang with a standard military salute.
Xiong Jiashang opened her mouth and glanced at Deputy Company Commander Huang, who used the pseudonym Huang Zhongyuan. She finally held back her smile and shook hands with him, "Thank you, Deputy Company Commander Huang."
She knew more about this person. He Guan, nephew of Chief Inspector Jin Kemu of the Central Police Station, was nicknamed "Master Guan".
