Funeral Home, Morning Room.

Asano Ichiro, Lin Shiqun, Wu Sibao and others, as well as a British detective who rented a police station in public, a total of seven or eight people surrounded the two bodies that had just been sent, all covered with white cloth.

The gunshot wound has no value in dissecting the corpse, so I sent it here directly.

"Brother Shiqun, what do you think?"

Asano Ichiro seemed to have intentionally taken Lin Shiqun. As soon as he looked up, his eyes asked Lin Shiqun who was covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

Lin Shiqun coughed, probably because he couldn't stand the strong smell of blood.

"Mr. Asano, these two people are already the lowest-level people living in the concession in terms of their outfits. Look at the felt hats and scarves, as well as the shoes they wear, the heels are worn very seriously. There are many such people, and there are many foreign people in Shanghai, so it is probably not easy to know their identity." Lin Shiqun walked around the bodies of the two.

Asano Ichiro is a criminal investigation expert and has been in China for more than a year, so he naturally saw it.

Judging from the dress, there is not much useful information.

"Take off your shoes."

Asano Ichiro waved his hand and a Japanese plainclothes came forward and took off the shoes from the feet of the two bodies.

"light?"

Zhang Lu turned on his mouth and unscrewed the flashlight, aiming the beam directly at one of the people's left foot. Lin Shiqun bent down and observed carefully, and looked very carefully.

"This person's feet are very wide, his feet are a little flat, and his skin is a little dark. He is likely to be a fisherman or sailor." Lin Shiqun said with his head up.

"The nails are very clean, and recently, the skin is very rough and the smell of soap on the body. No, there is also a fishy smell. It eliminates the possibility of sailors, there are calluses on their hands and knife wounds. These are the ropes in the middle that should be caused by fishing nets..."

Asano Ichiro waved his hand and signaled his assistant Kobayashi to record what Lin Shiqun said.

"Look at this again, his skin is fair but rough. He is not a pampered person at first glance. When he looks at his palms, he is covered with calluses, especially the tiger's mouth on his right hand, and a circle of calluses. However, his left hand has a lot lighter and no special smell on his body."

After saying that, Lin Shiqun picked up the shoes and knocked them on the ground, falling down a circle of mud and some unknown particles.

After grabbing it in his hand and crushing it, Lin Shiqun frowned slightly.

"Brother Shiqun, did you find it?" Asano Ichiro squatted down while pretending to touch and did the same move, but he did not find anything.

"I'm not sure, I need further testing." Lin Shiqun said.

"We will do it when we go back. You will tell us your guess first." Asano Ichiro asked.

"Based on my touch just now, it might be something like wood chips." Lin Shiqun covered his mouth and coughed, "According to the previous information and comprehensive analysis, this person may have been a carpenter in his lifetime."

"carpenter?"

There was a sound of surprise around him.

"I also speculate that some things will inevitably be contaminated in the gaps in his shoes where he works. By testing the identity of these things, he can determine his possible identity, so that he can lock in specific groups for investigation for us, and it will be easier to find the identity." Lin Shiqun explained.

"What Brother Shiqun said makes sense. These two people are almost without any objects on their bodies, and they have no IDs or other items that can identify themselves. It is really difficult to confirm their identities." Asano Ichiro said.

"So, we can only start with the physical characteristics of the corpse and the only information. Mr. Asano, judging from the situation of these two people, the other party has obviously made sacrifice equipment for a long time, so apart from physical characteristics, the rest does not give us much information at all." Lin Shiqun said.

"Brother Shiqun thinks this is what he does?" Asano Ichiro asked.

"It's hard to say. Those who can do this can be done by the Military Control Commission, the CCP's underground party, and the mysterious iron-blooded anti-traitor group can do it."

"Why is there no Central Government?"

"If the Central Commission for Discipline takes action, I wouldn't know that in the Military Commission, Xie Xiaochu should not be their target. They are targeting big figures in the military and political circles. As for the Iron Blood Anti-Traitor Group, I think Mr. Asano also has his own judgment?" Lin Shiqun said.

"Brother Shiqun also has this judgment?" Asano Ichiro said.

"I know very well the history of the Iron Blood Anti-Traitor Group. Their leader, the 'Military Advisor', can be regarded as a strange man in the world. He was under the command of Wang Jiuge and was a very powerful figure. However, I didn't see much information about this person when I was in the Central Commission for Discipline. And I know, you must also know that this person is meticulous, tricky, and very difficult. If it were him, it would be difficult to deal with." Lin Shiqun said.

"That's why I have to rely on Brother Shiqun."

"Mr. Asano, you are polite. Your business is mine, and I will do my best." Lin Shiqun said hurriedly.

The crime was in the public concession, so the case investigation and wanted must be handled by the public concession. However, the Japanese side obviously wants to intervene.

The public concession does not want to cause trouble, so the case is basically controlled by the Japanese military police ranks. If it is found out, the credit is from the Concession Police Department. If it cannot be found out, it will not be related to its own business.

The Public Concession Police Department has turned a blind eye to the case involving Japan, but the law enforcement power is still in the hands of the Concession Police Department.

The Japanese side can investigate, but cannot enforce the law in the concession. If arresting people, they must obtain approval from police.

After leaving the Immortal Funeral Home, Ichiro Asano got into Lin Shiqun's car.

"Brother Shiqun, what do you think of this failed assassination?" Asano Ichiro asked.

"The opponent was well prepared, and we did not receive any relevant information in advance." Lin Shiqun said, "This is enough to show that we occupied an extremely unfavorable position in the fight against the Japanese elements. Even if we made sufficient preparations, we still gained very little in the end."

"Do you think there is something wrong with our intelligence work?"

"Yes, if we only defend passively against the Military Control Commission, the underground party, and semi-Chongqing elements like the Iron Blood Anti-Traitor Group, we can only continue to suffer losses." Lin Shiqun said, "Only by establishing an organization that can be confronted by agents and using agents to reverse the current situation."

"Is this your agent plan?"

"Yes, we can do what they can do. Say a disrespectful word. As long as you are well-trained agents, you can recognize them at a glance. Even if a senior agent can disguise himself as a Chinese and deceive most people's eyes, some people still can't hide it." Lin Shiqun said.

"Is there really such a person?"

"Yes, not only are there such people in the Military Control Commission, but also in our Central Government. Such people have the innate talent to look at people. Sometimes, they only look at people based on feelings, and feelings are something that cannot be explained clearly. Therefore, we must also have such people."

"Brother Shiqun once studied at a special police school in the Soviet Union, right?"

"It's an unbearable past. Does Mr. Asano doubt Lin's sincerity?" Lin Shiqun said with embarrassment flashed across his face.

"No, I wonder if you have such ability, Brother Shiqun?" Asano Ichiro said.

"I can't guarantee it, but I still have some experience in it."

"Is Mr. Ding Momura happy to live with you?" Asano Ichiro asked after a different question.

"Fortunately, the climate in Shanghai is too cold and his body is not very good, so he is a little uncomfortable." Lin Shiqun replied carefully.

"Is that so? Mr. Ding is my good friend of the Japanese Empire. Looking back, I will personally arrange to find a good doctor to see him for treatment." Asano Ichiro said.

"Okay, I will definitely convey your kindness to Mr. Ding." Lin Shiqun nodded.

"Stop, I won't follow you back. Brother Shiqun, please ask Xie Xiaochu for the case. I will ask Director Tajima for convenience in the Concession Police Department." Asano Ichiro said.

"Please rest assured Mr. Asano, I will determine the identity of the killer as soon as possible." Lin Shiqun said, he did not dare to solve the case.

The case is complicated. He is a newcomer who wants to make contributions, but he also needs to measure his abilities.

...

It was almost four o'clock in the morning when Lu Xiyan returned home.

I wanted to wait for Tan Si and Ding Pengfei to come back to learn about the situation, but no one knew when they would be able to come back. After waiting for a while, after dealing with the post-operative matters, they went back.

On New Year's Day and New Year, a gun battle broke out on Yuyuan Road. The traitorous businessman "Xie Xiaochu" was assassinated by anti-Japanese elements. I am afraid that there will be news for the newspapers in Shanghai tomorrow.

Going upstairs, the bedside lights in the bedroom are still on.

Meng Fanxing turned over and noticed a sound. He opened his eyes and said, "Xiyan, are you back?" (I used to be called Brother Anzi when I was in love, but now I think it is better to call him a name, after all, I am already a couple)

"Let's wake you up." Lu Xiyan said gently.

"I've been waiting for you, and I don't know when I fell asleep." Meng Fanxing was still wearing a coat, so there was no need to explain this.

"Then let's go to bed." Lu Xiyan said, "It's going to dawn in two or three hours."

"I can't sleep anymore, can I tell me what happened?"

"The Iron Blood Anti-Traitors Group planned an assassination last night, targeting the traitor businessman Xie Xiaochu. Who knew that this was a trap set by the Japanese deliberately to lure them into the bait. As a result, two were killed on the spot, one was seriously injured and needed surgery, so I called me over." Lu Xiyan explained.

"You went to perform surgery on someone?" Meng Fanxing said in surprise.

"Well, if you go a little later, you may be in danger." Lu Xiyan nodded.

"No wonder you have bloody smell."

"Is there still a bloody smell?" Lu Xiyan said, "Do I want to take another shower?"

"Let's wash tomorrow morning. There is no hot water now. If you alarm your dad, you should be worried again." Meng Fanxing shook his head and said.

"Or why I'll go to the study to sleep. It's not good for me to smell it."

"It's okay, I'll change the bed sheets and sheets tomorrow. Besides, the smell is not too heavy. If you don't get close to me, you won't smell it."

"All right."

Lying down, Lu Xiyan couldn't sleep, thinking in his mind how to deal with this matter next.
