Amid the sound of gunfire, nine men tied up in large numbers twisted and fell down.
Every gunshot sounded like a needle piercing Cheng Qianfan's heart.
The execution agent of No. 76 was inspecting the body and re-shot.
Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette roll, his hand was very stable. He held the lighter's hand, skillfully tweaked the wheel, lowered his head slightly, lit the cigarette roll, and then took a few deep breaths.
A few smokes were sprayed out of his nose, and Cheng Qianfan turned his head to look at Li Cuiqun. He blew the ashes and suddenly laughed, "If I hadn't known the senior, I really thought this was giving me a warning."
"It's not for you." Li Cuiqun waved his hand.
"Oh?" Cheng Qianfan showed doubt.
"The Political Department of the Police Office called me to ask for someone." Li Cuiqun smiled, "We are all good citizens, just give it to others if you want someone."
"Tande?" Cheng Qianfan asked. Seeing Li Cuiqun nodding, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, "What's this?"
He took another sip of the cigarette roll, threw the remaining half of the cigarette roll on the ground, and said, "Don't luck."
Then he said goodbye to Li Cuiqun.
"Take the body away." Li Cuiqun shouted.
"What do I want that thing to do?" Cheng Qianfan said angrily, then he said to Li Hao, "Take a photo, take a few more photos, and take it back to hand it to Mr. Tande."
Li Hao nodded expressionlessly, then returned to the car and took out his camera to take a photo.
"I lost playing cards, so I must ask my senior for compensation." Cheng Qianfan sat in the car. He rolled down the window, and at some point he put another cigarette in his hand, and said to Li Cuiqun with a smile.
Li Cuiqun laughed out loud.
Haozi's expression is focused.
He tried to take some good photos of these brothers who sacrificed their lives for the country as their remains, but the slaughtered person did not look good in death.
This made Li Hao even more sad.
"I always know that people are gone, there are photos, there is a thought, there is..." Cheng Qianfan said. He wanted to comfort Haozi, but as he spoke, he couldn't continue.
"I recognize someone." Li Hao said, turning the steering wheel skillfully and turning into the main road.
"Who?" Cheng Qianfan was shocked, "Is it our periphery?"
"I don't know his name either." Li Hao shook his head, "I know he was a student of the normal school in Shanghai Middle School."
"What?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"At that time, the students of Shanghai Middle School held an anti-Japanese demonstration. I took someone to patrol. The man stopped me and asked me why I didn't fight against Japan." Li Hao said.
Li Hao's eyes were a little red. He remembered that in the summer of the 26th year of the Republic of China, the thin student walked up to him. The man had a pair of glasses on his nose, sweaty clothes, but he was very energetic.
"Mr. Patrolman, you are a seven-foot man, but you are humble to foreigners. Why don't you go to the battlefield and contribute to the fight against Japan?"
Li Hao remembered that he was looking at the other person indifferently at that time, but in fact he was worried inside because he was hesitating whether he should arrest someone.
In the end, he did not arrest anyone. His explanation was: the student was very literary and could not understand.
Li Hao remembered it very clearly. When he said this, the student had light, fire, the will to fight, and the determination to sacrifice himself for this land.
For several days, Li Hao was in a low mood.
Even if there were brothers in the Shanghai Special Love Department who died for the country, Li Hao was sad, but he was not affected in this way.
Cheng Qianfan watched coldly, but he could understand Haozi's emotions very well.
However, he did not persuade him, and he believed that Haozi could get out by himself.
In addition, although he had an answer from Li Cuiqun's mouth, he still had some doubts about why Li Cuiqun invited him to "watch the ceremony" to kill people.
Maybe the truth is indeed as Li Cuiqun said, but if you are suspicious, you will think too much, or even subconsciously think about the worst situation, this is already deeply engraved in Cheng Qianfan.
.
It's insincere...
...
January 7th, the 28th day of the winter lunar calendar.
It is advisable to: clean, bathe, sacrifice, do not take any other matters, repair the wall, break the ants, and plug the holes.
Taboos: get married, move a new house, bury, build, mourn, and build a temple.
‘Mr. Xiao Cheng” looked through the almanac in the police station office, and suddenly felt that it was suitable for a bath today, so he invited Lu Dazhang and Lao Huang to have a drink together.
After drinking, we will go to Yuchunxi bathing pool together.
Now I am having a drink at Lu Dazhang's house, and before I go to the soup pool.
"Tander was frightened." Cheng Qianfan and Lu Dazhang clinked glasses, took a sip, and sneered.
He still remembers the scene when he handed the photo to Tande a few days ago when Tande saw the scene of the dead bodies on the ground being scared and pale.
He Xingjian is a French concession registered and died in the western border area of ​​Shanghai.
Strictly speaking, this case has little to do with the French Concession. Of course, this is a comparison. After all, with the Japanese, crossing the boundary on the 76th into the concession to catch people and kill people, this is indeed nothing.
However, because Xu felt that it was not a big deal, Tande, director of the Political Department of the French Concession Police Station, suddenly had a whim and called the agents headquarters directly and asked the agents headquarters to hand over the murderer who killed He Xingjian.
"Tander called and killed a group of people on No. 76 to demonstrate." Lu Dazhang said.
Although, based on the internal feedback from Zhao Shuli from No. 76, No. 76 decided to kill a group of people to respond to the Military Control Commission's assassination of Chen Mingchu, He Xingjian and others, it seems that the death of the nine people was caused by Tande's phone call, which seems to be a bit unfair to Tande, but this incident is really infuriating when you think about it.
"That was because Tande was drunk and made a call to show off his might in front of his mistress." Cheng Qianfan said with a gloomy face.
From this matter itself, it's outrageous.
Moreover, in terms of procedurally, He Xingjian was assassinated, No. 76 was the 'debtor', and Tande should not ask No. 76 to hand over the person, at most he asked No. 76 to assist in the investigation.
"French men can do anything strange for women." Old Huang said with a gloomy face, took a sip of rice wine.
...
"Talking about the serious business." Cheng Qianfan said with a solemn face, "The year is approaching, but the life on the team is very difficult, to be precise, it is very difficult."
He looked at Lu Dazhang and Lao Huang and continued, "The organization hopes that the comrades in Shanghai can find ways to help the team solve some of the material difficulties."
"We are not suitable to participate." Lao Huang thought about it, but he clearly put forward his objections.
"I agree." Lu Dazhang said, "This kind of action will inevitably involve many people and all aspects. Once we participate, it will greatly increase our chances of exposure."
Cheng Qianfan smiled and said, "This is exactly my opinion. Now that I'm fine, I'm still worried about how to convince you."
"Although we are also very eager to help and feel sorry for the comrades in the team, we cannot." Lu Dazhang said with a sigh.
Putting aside the reasons he said just now, they are not unable to participate in similar actions, but this requires organizational approval and orders, or to be precise, such actions are best guided by Comrade Farmer. Most importantly, when Comrade Farmer came to Shanghai, he specifically reminded the French Concession Special Party Group that everything is to be concealed first and safety is the priority:
In particular, remember not to have dangerous horizontal contacts with other local party organizations, and do not participate in joint actions that are easily exposed.
...
The three people agreed, but there was a surprising silence.
From a heart-to-hearted perspective, they are eager to devote themselves to the vigorous anti-Japanese struggle, cooperate with local party organizations, and give full play to their special role.
But they can't do that.
Of course, if the situation in the team is very, very bad, the organization specially ordered the French Concession's special party branch to find a way
.
To help the team, they will be very happy to take action.
"We have more important work at the moment." Cheng Qianfan dispersed smoke for Lao Huang and Lu Dazhang. "After the main force of the anti-Japanese volunteers in Jiangnan retreated west and headed north, the situation in the eastern Jiangsu road area deteriorated sharply."
"The Japanese and puppet troops also seized this opportunity and continuously strengthened their stronghold garrison and traffic blockade, intending to siege and eliminate the anti-Japanese military and civilians in the eastern Jiangsu region."
"According to the information available, the enemy is likely to sweep the South Jiangsu East Road area at the end of the year." Cheng Qianfan said, "Comrade "The Farmer" called and instructed him, hoping that we can capture the enemy's military movements as much as possible and provide Xinjiang resistance to support in military intelligence."
"Xinjiang Anti-Japanese?" Lao Huang asked in surprise.
"Yes, Xinjiang Anti-Japanese." Cheng Qianfan was excited. "After the main force of Jianghan went north, the Jiangnan Command of the New Fourth Army decided to hand over a small number of armed forces left on the East Jiangsu Road to the leadership of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee, and cooperate with local party organizations to carry out the enemy's guerrilla war."
"At present, the organization has officially established the Eastern Road Command of the Jiangnan Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army based on the wounded and sick left on the South Jiangsu East Road." Cheng Qianfan said, "Xinjiang Anti-Japanese was established under a very difficult situation, and it can even be said to be established in the encirclement of the enemy. However, the team is not afraid of difficulties or sacrifices, and has won several battles, which has also aroused the vigilance and hatred of the Japanese and puppet troops."
"Tell me, what do we need to do?" Lu Dazhang said solemnly.
It is difficult for him or Lao Huang to get in touch with the Japanese, let alone the Japanese military intelligence.
However, they can cooperate with comrades ‘Roil’.
They believe that this is also the reason why Comrade 'Scarlett' urgently convened this special meeting of the Party branch.
"My initial idea now is to attack Atsuto Kawada." Cheng Qianfan said, "Because it is not sure which army will be responsible for the Japanese army's mobilization of the South Jiangsu East Road, it is difficult for us to be targeted. Of course, it is not easy to be targeted."
"So, you decided to make a fuss about the Japanese noble master?" said Lao Huang, "It's a way of thinking."
"I agree." Lu Dazhang pondered, "The question now is whether Atsuto Kawada has the opportunity to access military intelligence about the enemy's sweep."
"I have thought about it carefully, it is possible." Cheng Qianfan said, "Kawada Atsuto's noble status has made this person very trusted and close to Ikenai, the commander of the Japanese military police. If the Japanese army has any movement, Ikenai, the commander of the military police, should be in control. Then, Kawada Atsuto's staff officer may also control it."
...
"Wait a minute, why does the Chi Nei master the Japanese army's sweep plan?" Lao Huang interrupted Cheng Qianfan and asked a key question.
"I don't know." Cheng Qianfan sighed lightly and said frankly, "Or it's just an ideal speculation of mine, and I'm not sure."
He looked at his two comrades and said, "I'll talk about my analysis and thinking."
"In combination with the previous Japanese army's sweep of the Qingdong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Base Area and the Japanese army's sweep of Baoshan, the former, I learned about the enemy's sweep plan from Yuichi Oda of the Watanabe Regiment, and the latter, the Japanese military police department sent troops to participate in the sweep."
"Wabi United will still be the Watanabe United for a sweep this time?" asked Lao Huang.
"From the information I have had before, this is impossible." Cheng Qianfan said, "Oda Yuichi and I are in contact with irregular gatherings. According to what Oda Yuichi said before, they should have returned to the main island of Japan to rest."
Lao Huang nodded.
"So, the biggest hope now is on the Gendarmerie Command, and on Atsuto Kawada." Lu Dazhang said.
He looked at Cheng Qianfan, "There is another question. Let's first assume that the Japanese military police commander Ikenai knows the Japanese army's sweeping plan, but how to ensure that Atsuto Kawada can grasp this confidential information?"
"Good question." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "This is the core issue we want to discuss, how to ensure that Atsuto Kawada can control it.
.
Hold on to the Japanese army's sweep plan."
"I'll add one more thing." Lao Huang said.
Cheng Qianfan and Lu Dazhang looked at Lao Huang.
"There is another key question. Even if we can find ways to urge Atsuto Kawada to contact and master the Japanese army's mobilization plan, how can we ensure that we can avoid arousing suspicion from the Japanese." Lao Huang said with a serious expression, "This is also very important."
"What Lao Huang said is also very reasonable." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
"It is difficult to do any of these two points, let alone do both points." Lu Dazhang frowned and said.
"It's not very difficult, it's very difficult." Old Huang nodded, "Especially the latter. Once the Japanese detect military information leaks, any person who may have access to intelligence will be investigated. If they are not careful, they may enter the Japanese's suspicious sight."
"So--" Cheng Qianfan looked at the two of them with a smile.
"Let's find a way together."
"There is always a solution."
Lao Huang and Lu Dazhang almost said in unison, saying, "Let's find a way together." It was Lu Dazhang, saying, "There is always a solution." It was Lao Huang.
Then, the three of them discussed for a long time, and put forward several ideas during this period, but they were all rejected in the end.
Although the three of them were a little disappointed, they were not discouraged. They had no other way and continued to think hard.
In Lao Huang's words, as the saying goes, "Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang." The three cobblers plan their ideas together, even if they are serious, they can think of a "scam trick" that can be used.
Cheng Qianfan felt that Huang was humble, and he felt that he and his comrades were much more powerful than cobblers.
...
"Have you encountered trouble in business?" Bai Ruolan asked her husband with concern, "I see you are frowning."
"Well, it's the end of the year, and there are some official jobs." Cheng Qianfan was shocked and said to his wife.
He knew that this was Ruolan's vague reminding him in this way.
Even when Ruolan asked a question, she had already helped him choose the 'answer' in advance - a trouble in official business.
"There is endless work, don't be too busy." Bai Ruolan walked behind Cheng Qianfan and helped her husband press his head.
"Press my shoulders." Cheng Qianfan closed his eyes, sighed comfortably, and said.
Bai Ruolan gently slapped her husband on the shoulder and then began to pinch his shoulder.
"The New Year is over, are the New Year's goods ready in the police room?" Bai Ruolan asked while pinching her shoulders.
"New Year's goods? The General Affairs Office is busy with this matter, I'll turn around and ask." Cheng Qianfan suddenly felt aroused.
