Chapter 243 Who is the ‘black hand’ behind the scenes? (The third update requires a monthly subscription)
“I’m going out to smoke a cigarette.” Cheng Qianfan pointed outside and went out directly after saying that.
Pete nodded, knowing that his friend was trying to avoid suspicion.
Peter admires this characteristic of Cheng Qianfan very much:
Very smart, knowing when to do things, very considerate of friends, and never making things difficult for friends.
Peter opened the safe, put the documents in the briefcase back, and then locked the safe.
“Qianfan, come here, try this.” Pete took out a box of cigars from his desk drawer and said hello.
The two men cut cigars, lit them, and puffed out smoke.
The conversation got excited and we opened a bottle of red wine.
Cheng Qianfan told what happened after Pete left:
After he dealt with Linda who broke in to catch someone **** him, he let the White Russian dancer leave.
Peter understood the subtext of Cheng Qianfan's words: He didn't touch that White Russian woman.
Pete shook his head. If there was anything, he wouldn't mind.
Cheng Qianfan blew out a smoke ring and said, "I mind."
…
"How did you know Linda was going to catch me?" Pete asked innocently.
"I saw Linda angrily sitting in a rickshaw passing by the door, looking towards the direction of Father Jin Road." Cheng Qianfan laughed loudly, "You are lucky, if I hadn't been smart, I guessed that Lin If Da is going to catch an adulterer, I will inform you immediately. You are now..."
Peter was startled, thinking about the consequences of being caught and raped by Linda in bed. Duan was extremely frightened. He clinked glasses with Cheng Qianfan and said, "God bless me. Fortunately, I have a smart friend."
Cheng Qianfan drank half a glass of wine and put it down, "No, I have to go to the arresting hall. It's not okay to hang out with you all day today."
Speaking, he picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and left in a hurry.
…
After Cheng Qianfan left, Peter poured himself another glass of wine, slowly tasting the wine and thinking slowly.
Room 301 of the Asia Hotel was his meeting point. Cheng Qianfan knew this. Therefore, Cheng Qianfan said that he guessed that Linda was going to catch an adulterer and hurried to report the news.
Theoretically it is established.
only-
Ten minutes later.
Cheng Qianfan looked down from the corridor on the second floor and saw Pete asking about the sentry.
The corner of his mouth raised a faint smile.
Peter returned to the office on the third floor. He just asked the sentry:
At that time, Deputy Inspector Cheng went downstairs, put a bag into the car, and then smoked a cigarette to go back to the office. He seemed to have seen someone passing by the door, and drove out in a panic.
What the sentry said is correct as well as what Cheng Qianfan said before.
However, there was one thing he didn't understand. What was the reason why Cheng Qianfan suddenly left the office and went downstairs?
At this time, he glanced and saw a black leather bag on the chair.
He immediately remembered that Cheng Qianfan had forgotten to take it and left it behind.
Peter closed the door, gently opened the zipper of the leather bag, and saw a bunch of money inside, as well as several exquisitely crafted gadgets. Although he didn't quite understand, he could tell that they were antique jade objects.
Pete understood that this was the "filial piety money" received by Cheng Qianfan. He couldn't keep it in the patrol room, so he secretly put it back in the car.
It was precisely for this reason that I met an angry Linda passing by the door.
Pete was relieved to have the whole process figured out.
At the same time, I felt a little guilty for actually doubting my good friend.
…
The young French lieutenant shook his head, yes, Cheng Qianfan would gain nothing by betraying him.
However, after thinking about it, he felt that it was unreasonable. The relationship between the two was good friends, but it was not just a simple friendship. The most important thing was that they had a community of interests:
The two are business partners. One provides the supply of goods, and the other controls the contacts and sales channels. The cooperation is very pleasant.
There is absolutely no need for Cheng Qianfan to do this.
There is no stronger friendship than a community of interests.
So, the question is, who snitched on Linda and wanted to destroy Linda and his happy marriage?
Armand? I have a close relationship with this businessman's wife. It is possible that this guy is deliberately seeking revenge!
Constantine? It shouldn't be the case, since he and his daughter have stopped contacting him a long time ago.
Gaspar? This guy has always been jealous of the fact that he fell in love with his fiancée last year.
Flo? Pete swore to God that he didn't have any evil intentions for Flo's little daughter, but that the little girl was the one who kept pestering him.
After thinking about it for a long time, Pete felt that everyone was like a ‘black hand’ behind the scenes.
…
Cheng Qianfan didn’t know that Peter didn’t think about the documents in the briefcase at all.
He thought about it carefully and realized that his arrangement was one link after another, which should be enough to eliminate Peter's doubts about himself.
When it was almost time to get off work, Cheng Qianfan hurried to Pete's office, looking for his wallet.
Taking the leather bag handed over by Peter, Cheng Qianfan opened it without hesitation and checked it. While looking down, he asked, "Peter, you didn't take my money, did you?"
“Get out!” Pete gave him the middle finger.
Cheng Qianfan laughed loudly, zipped up the bag, patted it with satisfaction, and waved to Peter, "Let's go."
Stepping out the door, he turned around and said, "My car keys."
"This is my car." Pete threw the car keys over and snorted.
“Give it to me and it’s mine.” Cheng Qianfan shook the car key in his hand, laughed and left.
Other patrol officers and detectives in the corridor saw Inspector Xiao Cheng and greeted him with smiles.
Without him, Inspector Xiao Cheng is now the sun is rising and the sun is shining brightly.
…
Go back in time several hours.
Nanjing, Xufu Lane.
The headquarters of the Secret Service.
A messy scene.
Dai Chunfeng was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, carrying a suitcase and wearing sunglasses, and was about to leave.
"Virgo." Qi Wu walked hurriedly, glanced around, and the others immediately exited the room.
“‘Blue Bird Urgent Telegram’.” Qi Wu then handed the telegram to Dai Chunfeng.
Dai Chunfeng put down his suitcase, took the message, and read it carefully.
“The Japanese have been deliberately preparing. Are they going to take action in Pingjin?” Dai Chunfeng frowned and asked Qi Wu.
At the same time, I was quite surprised in my heart. 'Blue Bird' actually got a telegram from Morishima, the Japanese Counselor in Peiping, to Kage Sasaki, the military attache of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai. Although it was an old telegram from half a year ago, This is also quite remarkable.
"It's hard to say." Qi Wu shook his head. "The Japanese are greedy and have long been eyeing North China. Judging from the telegrams, the Japanese have always been paying attention to Song Mingxuan's troops. This is understandable. As for whether they will take action..."
He paused and said in a low voice, "The appointment is now... Therefore, it is really difficult to judge what the Japanese think."
Dai Chunfeng nodded. The commissioner was trapped in Xi'an. The government was in chaos. It was really hard to say what the Japanese were thinking about and whether they would take this opportunity to suddenly start a war.
“Should you call Song Mingxuan and remind him to pay attention?” Qi Wu asked.
