Chapter 104 Three Trials
Cheng Qianfan sat on the chair in his office.
There was a bottle of open whiskey on the desk.
To be exact, half a bottle of whiskey.
He has drunk half a bottle.
There were already many cigarette butts piled up in the ashtray next to the wine bottle.
Cheng Qianfan had a cigarette roll in his index finger and middle finger with his right hand. He took a deep breath and two smokes sprayed out of his nostrils.
It has been more than an hour since he returned to the office, and he has been smoking, drinking, with a gloomy face and without saying a word.
...
The office door was knocked.
"Come in." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice.
Li Hao pushed the door open and looked at the smokey office, and also saw Brother Fan's gloomy face. He turned around and closed the door.
"How is it?" Cheng Qianfan asked, pressing out the cigarette butts hard in the ashtray.
"Wang Kangnian has recruited people." Li Hao said.
"Say." Cheng Qianfan's body suddenly sat upright and asked coldly.
"Someone confessed that the purpose of their trip was to arrest a female Red Party member named Nursery from the Telegram Office." Li Hao said.
"Female Red Party?" Cheng Qianfan frowned, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes, "What do you say about the grenade in the briefcase?"
"They don't admit that the attack on Brother Fan is related to them." Li Hao's face was also gloomy, "Wang Kangnian said that all this is a misunderstanding. They came for the Red Party, and other things have nothing to do with them."
"Misunderstanding?" Cheng Qianfan sneered, "How could such a coincidence happen?"
...
"I'll go to interrogate again, I'll torture myself." Li Hao said gritting his teeth, "I will definitely pry open their mouths in two hours."
Li Hao was frightened when he heard that Brother Fan was attacked at the entrance of the Vienna dance hall and was almost killed by a "bomb".
Fortunately, the news came afterwards, and Cheng Qianfan escaped by chance and was not injured. This made Li Hao feel relieved and was also very scared.
Li Hao vowed that he would not let the murderer behind him go, and he would definitely find the mastermind behind him and avenge Brother Fan.
He will not let anyone know if he wants to harm Brother Fan.
"Haozi, how credible do you think what Wang Kangnian said is?" Cheng Qianfan looked cold and tapped the tabletop with his fingers.
"Their purpose of this trip was to arrest the female Red Party in the Telegram Office. This did not seem to be fake." Li Hao thought for a while and said.
"Is there something wrong with that nursery? Is it the Red Party? It should not be difficult to check." Cheng Qianfan pondered for a moment and said.
He rubbed his temples.
"Whether the confession is credible depends on the nursery they mentioned is the Red Party. Is there any evidence?" After pausing for a moment, Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly and said.
"Leave it to me, Brother Fan." Li Hao said.
The reason why underground parties are difficult to catch is because they are not exposed. Once exposed, it will be much easier to trace back to see if there are any problems with this person.
"As long as no one dies, it's fine." Cheng Qianfan said in a cold voice.
"I understand." Li Hao said with a fierce look on his eyes.
Of course, the most direct way is to interrogate Wang Kangnian and his group.
These guys are traitors who committed suicide in Japan. He hated these people deeply and had no reason to show mercy. What's more, these people are most likely to be suspected of intending to murder Brother Fan, and Li Hao hated them even more.
...
"Even if it can prove that the arrest of the female Red Party is true, it cannot rule out that they have nothing to do with the attack on you, Brother Fan." Li Hao continued to think and said.
"Brother Fan, you killed Wang Kangnian's subordinates and injured him. He must have a grudge. He cannot rule out the possibility that he secretly entered the French Concession to attack you under the pretext of capturing the Red Party."
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan picked up the cigarette box and wanted to smoke it. Seeing that the cigarette box was empty, he held the cigarette box in the heart of his fist and said coldly, "If I were Wang Kangnian, I would definitely have to take revenge."
"How did you investigate the briefcase?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"There is no clue yet." Li Hao frowned, shook his head, and said, "The briefcase was found in the river at the back door of the Vienna dance hall. The things inside were gone. The other party left no clues, and there were no witnesses."
"I changed my briefcase and threw it away, not afraid of subsequent investigations. This shows that this person is very confident in his skills." Cheng Qianfan's face turned pale, "It also shows that this person is sure that I will die."
"I can change my briefcase without realizing it. This person is not only extremely bold, but also agile." Cheng Qianfan thought, and then said with a gloomy face, "Haozi, check those three hands, especially those with famous names."
"Yes." Li Hao nodded. Brother Fan suspected that he was able to handle the three hands, and he recognized Brother Fan's inference.
These three shameless hands cannot be found by outsiders, so the police room can naturally be found.
Finding three famous and famous hands, on the one hand, is that these people can make a name for themselves, which also means that they are capable of being good at it, and they may be the ones who take action.
Even if it has nothing to do with them, the police station directly puts pressure on these people in the theft world. If there are rats, they can find people by themselves, which will be better.
"Especially check if there are any guys who are tight on hand recently." Cheng Qianfan took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, opened it, took one and held it in his mouth, and said.
"It's tight?" Li Hao thought for a while and understood what Brother Fan meant.
Those who dare to accept the recruitment of characters from certain aspects and attack "Submission Commander Xiao Cheng" must be tempted by heavy profits and even have a desperate choice.
Seeing Li Hao leave in a hurry, Cheng Qianfan's hand whirled, playing with the lit cigarette, his eyes flashed, and he fell into deep thought.
"Inspector General, General Jin is here to the capture hall. Please come over."
"I know." Cheng Qianfan sorted out his police uniform, picked up his hat, and said.
...
Pete, deputy squad leader of the Political Department of the French Concession Police Office, and Cheng Qianfan, the chief of the Third Patrol Office of the Central Police Office, was attacked by a "bomb" and surrounded by gunmen, and Pete was even injured in the gunfight.
This incident caused shock to the police station in the French Concession.
Jin Kemu, acting chief of the Central Police Office.
The French Concession Political Department's squad leader Xi Neng, and the translator and Gongshen accompanied him.
There is also Mr. Tande, the special assistant to the French Concession Police Supervisor, His Excellency Fegerson.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The three parties jointly summoned Cheng Qianfan, the chief of the three-in-commissioned inspector, to express their condolences and inquire about this matter in detail.
Cheng Qianfan truthfully reported the results of the interrogation to the present.
"Catch the female staff nursery of the Telegraph Office?" Jin Kemu asked, "they said this woman is the Red Party, is there any evidence?"
Cheng Qianfan was about to answer, when the door of the General Administration Office was knocked.
"Come in." Jin Kemu said in a deep voice.
Li Hao came in, saluted the senior management of the police station in the French Concession, then walked to Cheng Qianfan and whispered a few words, and handed him a piece of paper.
...
Cheng Qianfan showed surprise, waved his hand, and signaled Li Hao to retreat.
Then, he unfolded the paper in his hand and looked closely. He first showed a flash of joy that flashed by, and then frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?" Jin Kemu asked.
"Report to General Jin." Cheng Qianfan presented the page of the paper in his hand, "Wang Kangnian confessed that they not only tried to secretly arrest the nursery in the concession this time, but before, they had also sneaked into the concession and secretly arrested a person."
"You keep talking." Jin Kemu took the paper supply, looked down, and said at the same time.
"The police department of the police station of the Avenue Municipal Government sneaked into the French Concession and secretly abducted a man. Later, they interrogated the person strictly and threatened and tempted him. This person confessed that he was Tong Xueyong, a traffic officer at the Hongdang South City Traffic Station, and it was this person who confessed that the female employee of the Telegraph Department was the Hongdang Party."
Xiu Gushen was translating Xi Neng and Tande. At this moment, he heard about the arrest and confession of the Red Party. He glanced at Cheng Qianfan and understood why the boy's eyes flashed with joy when he was reading the content of the confession just now.
"Bao Road City Police Department?" Tande snorted coldly, with a sarcastic look on his face.
"Mr. Tande, Your Excellency Xi Neng." Jin Kemu looked at the two of them with a serious expression, "This so-called police station of the Avenue Municipal Government, relying on the support of the Japanese, sneaked into the French Concession and carried out secret arrests. This is a provocation to the authority of the French Concession and a serious provocation to my police station."
When Cheng Qianfan heard this, he couldn't help but secretly applaud Jin Kemu's words.
Jin Kemu's purpose was naturally to curb the expansion and evil deeds of the police station of the Dadao Municipal Government supported by the Japanese in the French Concession. However, he did not show his anti-Japanese thinking at all, but instead used the reason to maintain the authority of the French Concession and the authority of the police station.
This is very useful.
What the French value most is face.
Sure enough, both Tande and Xi Neng showed an unhappy expression, especially Tande, who was extremely despised by the Avenue Municipal Government in his words.
"I will report this to Your Excellency Fergeson in person." Tande said coldly, "General General Jin, whenever he meets people from the Avenue Municipal Government in the future, he will arrest him first."
The French Concession authorities are indeed quite afraid of the Japanese, but, the Dadao Municipal Government?
It was just a dog raised by the Japanese, and this dog was not recognized by the French Concession and the public concession!
"I understand." Jin Kemu nodded.
When he heard Tande only mentioned the Avenue Municipal Government, he did not mention the Japanese master behind the Avenue Municipal Government, Jin Kemu was disappointed, but his expression was not abnormal.
...
"Chief Cheng, do you think the person who tried to blow you and Pitt to death was Wang Kangnian?" Xi Neng asked.
"Previously, Wang Kangnian led his men across the border and entered the French Concession, intending to do something wrong. One of his subordinates was shot dead by me, and Wang Kangnian himself was also injured by me. I suspect that Wang Kangnian was holding a grudge from this and intended to harm me." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice.
"When did the thing you said happen?" After hearing this, Tande showed a strong interest in what Cheng Qianfan said.
Cheng Qianfan briefly told the story: Wang Kangnian led his subordinates to sneak into the French Concession, sneaking and being discovered by the wise and powerful Commander Xiao Cheng. There was a conflict between the two sides. Commander Xiao Cheng did not care about the other party's so-called origin of the police station of the Avenue Municipal Government, and killed a thug and injured Wang Kangnian. The latter led his men to escape from the French Concession in a panic.
"Behind Wang Kangnian is the Japanese, do you know?" Tande asked.
"Behind his subordinates are the police station, the French Concession, and the powerful French Republic!" Cheng Qianfan said loudly without hesitation.
"Very good! Very good! Commander Cheng, you are an upright and loyal police officer!"
Tande was very happy to hear this.
He told Xi Neng and Jin Kemu that what the French Concession needed was an excellent police officer like Chief Xiao Cheng who was loyal to France and bravely fought against evil forces.
Jin Kemu, who was standing aside, agreed with her smile, and Xi Neng also praised Cheng Qianfan a lot.
Both of them knew that Cheng Qianfan was actually quite close to the Japanese, but at this moment, both sides chose to forget this, and no one mentioned this to Tande.
...
"What do you think about the briefcase being dropped and grenades are placed?"
"I didn't notice this at all, and I didn't know when the briefcase was dropped." Cheng Qianfan showed a look of shame. "I was not alert enough, and almost implicated Pete, and felt guilty and uneasy."
"You are also a victim, don't worry, how is Pitt now?"
"I sent Lieutenant Pitt to the police hospital for surgery and notified Lieutenant Pitt's family." Cheng Qianfan said, "I asked the doctor and Lieutenant Pitt should not be in danger of life."
"After waiting for Ms. Linda to arrive at the hospital, she left the hospital and vowed to arrest the murderer and avenge Lieutenant Pitt."
Cheng Qianfan said something, and Xiu Gushen translated it.
Whether it was Xi Neng or Tande, after hearing these words, he nodded.
Especially Tande, when this man summoned Cheng Qianfan to question him last time, he was quite cold to Cheng Qianfan, and his face was much gentler at this time.
"Is there any evidence to prove that the attack is related to Wang Kangnian?" Jin Kemu asked.
"There is no direct evidence yet that the grenade is related to Wang Kangnian." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "However, Wang Kangnian's subordinates first shot at me and Lieutenant Pitt, which is a fact."
The few people whispered and discussed it, asked a few more questions, and then signaled that Cheng Qianfan could leave.
Tande even comforted Cheng Qianfan again in a gentle tone for the first time, saying that the authorities in the French Concession would not allow anyone to attack the patrol police, and that the matter would be investigated to the end and give him an explanation.
...
Cheng Qianfan returned to his office.
Close the door.
His face was extremely solemn.
The reason for the exposure of the nursery was found out, and it turned out to be the rebellion of Tong Xueyong, a trafficker at the Nanshi Transportation Station of our party.
Wang Kangnian did not hold on for too long when facing Li Hao's severe trial and quickly confessed.
Cheng Qianfan was not surprised by this. Wang Kangnian could not withstand severe torture and betrayed the Party Investigation Office and defected to the Japanese. Because of this person's betrayal and confession, Qin Detai eventually evacuated Shanghai. The entire Party Investigation Office station was almost taken into custody by the Special High School.
Such people are greedy for life and fear death and cannot bear torture. If they can confess once, they can confess a second time.
He secretly guided Li Hao to torture Wang Kangnian and others, on the surface, to find out the evidence that the other party said the target was the female red party nursery, but in fact it was also a clever trick to use this to figure out the real reason for the nursery exposure.
The importance of underground transportation stations is undoubtedly high, and their confidentiality level is also extremely high. Tong Xueyong's rebellion may pose a great threat to the Nanshi Party organization.
However, Cheng Qianfan was a little confused. The "Dazurri" had been lurking in the French Concession. How could he have contacted the traffic officers in Nanshi and eventually led to his invocation and betrayal?
Cheng Qianfan pulled up the blinds, opened the window, and poured the tea leaves in the tea cup directly out of the window on his left.
Old Huang, who was sitting in the corner of the wall basking in the sun and eating melon seeds, glanced out of the corner of his eyes.
About five or six minutes later, he patted his butt and returned to the medical room.
Cheng Qianfan came to the yard with a gloomy face and looked at the people coming and going, and then he was stopped by Lao Huang who was carrying a bottle of wine.
"General Cheng, I feel relieved when you see you are fine." Old Huang held the bottle and asked with a smile, "Drink a drink to relieve shock?"
