"Although I was unable to bring anyone into Room 203 for investigation due to Sanji's obstruction, I did not give up the investigation because of this." Facing Su Chende's inquiring eyes, Lu Fei talked eloquently, with a slightly proud expression on his face. .
“My subordinates sent people to secretly inquire about all the waiters in the Licha Hotel who might have had contact with Qian Yewen and Xu Zhixin, and found two clues.”
Su Chende raised his eyebrows. He really didn't expect Lu Fei to say that he had found two clues.
“The billiard room.” Lu Fei said, “After checking into the Licha Hotel, the two of them did not go out. Apart from staying in the room, they played billiards in the billiard room.”
“My subordinates sent people to investigate secretly. To be precise, Qian Yewen likes to play marbles.”
When Chen Mingchu heard this, he nodded thoughtfully, "Sheng Shuyu has achieved great success at a young age, and he is also handsome. He can be said to be suave. He once pretended to be a little girl in action. He is very good at dancing or playing marbles."
"There is another clue." Lu Fei continued, "That Xu Zhixin once went to the counter of Licha Hotel to buy cigarettes."
“But what’s different about the cigarettes he wants to buy?” Su Chende asked with a thought in his heart.
"Chief Su is a wise judge." Lu Fei said respectfully, and this respect and admiration was not entirely fake. As soon as he mentioned buying cigarettes, Su Chende guessed that cigarettes are special, and his astuteness was truly extraordinary.
“Xu Zhixin wants to buy a synthetic cigarette. There is no such cigarette counter.” Lu Fei said.
Su Chende frowned, "Have you ever heard of this brand of cigarettes?"
Chen Mingchu and Tang Wenlao both shook their heads.
"My subordinates have never heard of this brand of cigarettes." Lu Fei continued, "However, my subordinates sent someone to find the guy selling cigarettes and matches at the counter of Licha Hotel. The guy said that Xu Zhixin saw that he didn't have the synthetic cigarettes, so he asked Do you have Huamei cigarettes?"
“Are there any Huamei cigarettes at the counter?” Su Chende asked with a thought.
"No." Lu Fei said, "But the man has heard of these cigarettes. The reason why Licha Hotel does not have these gorgeous cigarettes is because not many people smoke these cigarettes and the quality is not high enough."
“Say it in one breath.” Su Chende glared at Lu Fei.
He has not had much contact with Lu Fei, and he discovered something at this time. This person is indeed quite capable, but he seems to have a tendency to show off once he gets proud.
"My subordinates have been thinking that it is a habit for a person to like to smoke a certain brand of cigarettes. There must be some similarity between the Zhangsheng cigarettes that Xu Zhixin wants and the Huamei cigarettes..." Lu Fei talked eloquently.
“I have remembered it,” Tang Kanlao suddenly said, “I have smoked Huamei cigarettes and they taste good.”
He pretended not to see Lu Fei's constipated expression and reported to Su Chende, "Huamei cigarettes are from Fujian, and the tobacco seems to be produced in Yunxiao, Fujian. The tobacco there is good, so there are many cigarette factories in the area. Zhang Hesheng Cigarettes is also Yunxiao’s cigarette factory.”
Su Chende looked at Lu Fei.
Lu Fei nodded with a gloomy expression, "Team Leader Tang is right, Zhang Henghe is the cigarette manufacturer of Fujian Yunxiao."
“So, this Xu Zhixin is most likely from Yunxiao, Fujian?” Su Chende thought.
“My subordinates think so too,” Lu Fei said.
He glanced at Tang Kanlao and continued, "My subordinates have asked people to secretly find out where there is a cigarette shop that sells Huamei cigarettes. It would be better if there is a billiard room nearby."
“Team Leader Lu’s idea is right.” Chen Mingchu praised, “Xu Zhixin must be a big smoker and can’t buy Zhang Hefei cigarettes. Since he knows that Huamei cigarettes are sold in Shanghai, he will probably find a way to buy them.”
As he spoke, he changed the topic, "As for the billiard room..."
He shook his head, "Sheng Shuyu is not an inexperienced agent. He will not deliberately look for a place with a billiard room nearby. This person is playing billiards at the Licha Hotel. He is not playing to get bored. It just shows that this person is very cautious."
Su Chende showed interest in Chen Mingchu's analysis and motioned for Chen Mingchu to continue.
"I have studied this case." Chen Mingchu said, "Sheng Shuyu and his wife chose to stay at the Licha Hotel and try not to go out. On the one hand, they were waiting for Guo Yuyu, and on the other hand, they also tried to avoid going out for safety reasons."
“However, two grown men staying in the room all the time was somewhat suspicious, so they went to the billiard room to play billiards.” Chen Mingchu said.
“Brother Chen is quick in thinking and what he said makes sense.” Su Chende nodded slightly.
He agreed with Chen Mingchu's judgment. As the former secretary and personnel chief of the Juntong Shanghai Station, Chen Mingchu had met Sheng Shuyu and had a good understanding of this person's temperament:
Sheng Shuyu may indeed like to play billiards, but he will not get into trouble because of playing billiards. This person played billiards at the Licha Hotel, but he did not play for the sake of playing billiards.
Lu Fei smiled bitterly, "My subordinates took it for granted and thought that by seizing the two clues of cigarettes and billiard room..."
Su Chende waved his hand and said, "Team Leader Lu, don't be discouraged. You have already done a good job."
His words were not entirely meant to comfort his subordinates. Objectively speaking, Lu Fei did a good job.
Speaking, Su Chende fell into deep thought.
Tang Wenlao and Lu Fei did not dare to disturb Su Chende's thinking. They discussed quietly on the side, while Chen Mingchu looked incomprehensible and reluctant to talk.
“Ask Qu Buhuan, if they and Sheng Shuyu did not successfully connect at the Licha Hotel, what would be the arrangements later?” Su Chende said suddenly.
“Yes.” Tang Wenlao responded and immediately turned around and left.
Soon, Tang Kanlao came back.
"Qu Buhuan doesn't know either." He reported to Su Chende, "Qu Buhuan said that only Guo Yunyu knows about this."
“Have Guo Yunyu spoken?” Su Chende asked a little irritably.
"No." Tang Canlao said with a gloomy face, "I just stopped by the torture room to ask. The man has died and been reborn many times, but he hasn't opened his mouth yet."
After a pause, Tang Kanlao snorted, "I didn't expect that the teacher, who looked so weak, could turn out to be a tough guy."
Su Chende frowned, and his expression suddenly changed slightly, "Send someone to check. Although Sheng Shuyu and the two did not call a rickshaw at the entrance of the Licha Hotel, it is unlikely that the two of them walked to their destination."
"With Sheng Shuyu's cunning, since this person is keenly aware of the danger, he probably won't just call a rickshaw to get there." Chen Mingchu thought for a while and said.
"I know." A smile appeared on Su Chende's face, "The rickshaw driver may not be able to help us find Sheng Shuyu's current location, but he can tell us where he has been, what he has said, and even what he has bought..."
In the absence of a better way, what he needs are these details, and he believes that through the study of these details, he can eventually find the intersection.
This is the valuable experience Su Chende gained from hunting down red parties.
When he was under the Central Government, he had used this method to achieve many satisfying results in arresting the Red Party.
In one of the cases, he discovered a detail from the mixed information: the target liked spicy food and did not eat sweets.
This person is from Wuxi, with a Wuxi accent, but he likes spicy food. The most important thing is that Wuxi people don’t eat sweets, which is very rare.
Finally, with this detail, Su Chende ordered his men to conduct secret investigations and found this man with a Wuxi accent who ate spicy food but not sweet food.
After interrogation, it was found that although this person was stubborn and did not confess any information about the Red Party, Su Chende was quite interested in this person's living habits and asked why this person did not eat sweets even though he was from Wuxi.
The red party member was very upset when he learned that his whereabouts had been exposed because of this living habit. It turned out that although this person was from Wuxi, his ancestral home was Bazhong, Sichuan.
…
Su Chende knew that his strategy was stupid. Although he was anxious, he was mentally prepared to take time to investigate slowly.
Therefore, Su Chende was surprised when his subordinates told him that they had found clues.
It was found within one day.
The first clue came from a rickshaw driver.
This man was the second rickshaw driver that Sheng Shuyu and his wife found after they hurriedly evacuated from the Licha Hotel.
According to this rickshaw driver’s account, passengers once asked him where to buy Huamei cigarettes on the way.
Obviously, as they expected, this passenger was Xu Zhixin. This man was a heavy smoker and couldn't help but smoke the cigarettes he was accustomed to.
No one knows better than rickshaw drivers where there are cigarette stalls and where a certain brand of cigarettes is sold, even for Huamei cigarettes, a brand that is rare in Shanghai.
The rickshaw driver thought for a while and informed the passengers of a nearby cigarette stall selling Huamei cigarettes.
However, what surprised the rickshaw driver was that the passengers seemed to have no intention of stopping to buy cigarettes.
"Xu Zhixin is only Sheng Shuyu's subordinate after all. He has no freedom of movement. If he dares to stop and buy cigarettes nearby, Sheng Shuyu will definitely punish him severely." Chen Mingchu said, "Sheng Shuyu's rule is quite strict."
Su Chende nodded.
The agent who came to report the situation continued.
Near Father Jin Road in Central District, Sheng Shuyu stopped the rickshaw, and Xu Zhixin also stopped the rickshaw when he saw this:
Before they got on the bus, they told the rickshaw driver that they were going to Shuanglongfang Apartment on Father Jin Road.
The rickshaw driver who pulled Xu Zhixin provided a detail. When Xu Zhixin got off the bus, the rickshaw driver said that there was a place selling Huamei cigarettes nearby. Xu Zhixin shook his head and mumbled something casually...
The rickshaw driver did not hear clearly what Xu Zhixin said specifically, but based on his description, it was obvious that Xu Zhixin's enthusiasm was waning.
"Xu Zhixin is a heavy smoker. If he really plans to settle in Shuanglongfang Apartment, he will be extremely happy to learn that there is a Huamei cigarette seller nearby. His attitude shows something is wrong."
Sure enough, agents from the Secret Service Headquarters went to the cigarette stall selling Huamei cigarettes near Shuanglongfang Apartment and found that no man with a height similar to Xu Zhixin came to buy Huamei cigarettes.
“It can be seen that they are not going to Shuanglongfang Apartment.” Tang Wenlao said, “Shuanglongfang Apartment is just a cover.”
Shuanglongfang Apartment is quite famous in Shanghai because of its prosperous location, but the room rate is not too high and the conditions are acceptable, so it is very popular among tenants who are short of money but need to show off their appearance.
Sheng Shuyu said he was going to Shuanglongfang Apartment. It was obvious that this person was quite familiar with the situation in Shanghai.
If it weren’t for Xu Zhixin’s inadvertent question to the rickshaw driver, they would probably have chosen Shuanglongfang Apartment as a key location for investigation.
From Xu Zhixin’s words, we can guess that what they really want to go to is somewhere else.
…
Sure enough, according to the undercover investigation, Da learned from the rickshaw driver working near Father Jin Road that two people came out of the stairs of Shuanglongfang Apartment and called a taxi to go to Beitang District. At this time, they were a few meters away from Sheng Shuyu It takes about half an hour to get off the bus at Shuanglongfang Apartment.
Special agents from the Secret Service Headquarters brought the two rickshaw pullers and the two rickshaw pullers in front of them together, verified each other, and confirmed that the two men were Sheng Shuyu and Xu Zhixin.
According to information obtained from Shuanglongfang Apartment, the two men entered Shuanglongfang Apartment as visitors.
“Sheng Shuyu is very cunning.” Chen Mingchu said with a smile.
Sheng Shuyu and the two took a rickshaw to the Huamin Hotel in Beitang District and checked in.
However, according to the latest information they gathered, the two of them took their luggage downstairs and left only half an hour after checking in. They told the shopkeeper that they had something to deal with. If anyone came to the hotel to find them, please provide them with paper and pen. Visitor message.
The shopkeeper is full of promises.
"It's confirmed, Huamin Hotel!" Lu Fei said excitedly, "We can ambush first and arrest them immediately when they come back."
He looked at Su Chende with admiration in his eyes. He boasted that he was already quite good at checking people, but now he was convinced of Su Chende——
As expected of being the former director of the Su-Shanghai District of the Central Government, the people of the Central Government were indeed more capable in handling such investigation and arrest matters than those of them who had military backgrounds.
Why? I think this is all the experience and skills that Zhongtong has accumulated and honed in those years of arresting red party members.
"It's not Huamin Hotel." Su Chende shook his head, "Check! See where these two people went after leaving Huamin Hotel."
Instinct told him that Sheng Shuyu was very cunning, and this Huamin Hotel was most likely a cover deliberately placed by Sheng Shuyu.
…
“This gun is good, I want it.” Sheng Shuyu said.
“Five hundred yuan as a courtesy.” Cheng Qianfan said jokingly.
"No money." Sheng Shuyu said angrily, "The debt is pending."
Sheng Shuyu inspected a weapons depot of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group. These were the weapons prepared by Cheng Qianfan for the operation to sanction Wang Tiemu and Chen Mingchu.
Seeing that it was getting late, Sheng Shuyu was ready to say goodbye and leave.
“Where are you staying now?” Cheng Qianfan asked Sheng Shuyu.
Although he met Sheng Shuyu who was posing as a rickshaw driver in Beitang District, he did not know where Sheng Shuyu ended up.
Sheng Shuyu looked at Cheng Qianfan warily and said in a half-joking tone, "What? Does Team Leader Xiao have a good place to live?"
Even if the other party is Cheng Qianfan, a trustworthy Cheng Qianfan, Sheng Shuyu is still very cautious and will try not to inform the other party of his destination unless it is really necessary.
Furthermore, he was also very surprised. Cheng Qianfan should know the rules, so why did he suddenly ask about their whereabouts?
"The Chief Inspector of the Petain District Patrol Room is secretly pro-Japanese." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "If the Japanese or No. 76 find out that we are hiding in the Petain District, it will be very dangerous and I may be out of reach for a while."
Sheng Shuyu chuckled and said confidently, "Don't be alarmed. After we evacuated from the Licha Hotel, we first walked, changed rickshaws three times, and changed hotels once. Unless the enemy is Erlang Shen's roaring dog that can smell it, there will be no chance. We can’t be found.”
"This is the best." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "Brother Sheng, I can rest assured when doing things."
"Come on." Sheng Shuyu was not polite. He pointed at Cheng Qianfan and said with a smile, "You are just afraid that I will hurt you."
As he said that, he pretended to be angry, "Boy, when it comes to this secret service, I am the senior."
“Senior Sheng.” Cheng Qianfan laughed.
Sheng Shuyu was also laughing, but he shook his head. He felt that Cheng Qianfan seemed to have a phobia of being implicated. Not only was he almost completely cut off from the Shanghai area, but he was also threatening all those who came into contact with him outside the Shanghai special situation group. People who come to Shanghai are extremely vigilant and even respond with suspicion.
this is not good.
It is not conducive to unity.
Where?
You, Cheng Qianfan, are the most capable?
Others are not as good as you?
