Li Hao got out of the car midway.
Cheng Qianfan drove the car with the window halfway down, and the cold wind blew in and swept his face.
Creak!
A sudden brake.
The car stopped on the side of the road.
Cheng Qianfan got out of the car.
The street lights are a little dim.
People returning late pass by in a hurry.
A car drove by and dropped half an apple. A little beggar flew up to catch it like a fish, showing a surprised smile.
Then, he looked around cautiously, put the apple in his pocket, and ran into the alley deep in the night.
A young woman who looked like a student walked by in a hurry.
Cheng Qianfan looked at her back, which reminded him of that poor girl. Qiao Chuntao mentioned that she was also a female student.
His eyes were lowered.
“I’m sorry, sister.” He said in his heart.
His heart ached terribly.
Without protecting you, you will not be able to rest in peace even after your tragic death!
sorry!
…
“One more bowl.” Cheng Qianfan wiped his mouth, sighed happily, and handed the porcelain bowl to Bai Ruolan.
Seeing Cheng Qianfan eating happily, Bai Ruolan was filled with joy.
Eat another bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
Bai Ruolan was washing the dishes, while Cheng Qianfan leaned against the kitchen door frame and looked at his wife with warm eyes.
The two of them chatted casually, talking about Xiaobao's homework results and interesting things about the two of them in the nursing home when they were young.
The light from the incandescent lamp shone on the two of them, casting a touch of warmth.
…
Go back to the study.
Cheng Qianfan calmed down and thought about things.
He was thinking about the conversation he had with Sanbonjiro in the evening.
Intuition told him that Sanbonjiro had long known about He Guan's return to Shanghai, followed and investigated He Guan, and may even have followed up and investigated Jin Kemu. There must be someone behind it.
When he asked Sanbonjiro about who was behind the Annan patrol to investigate and what matters, Sanbonjiro did not answer.
Instead, he turned to talk to him about the action taken by the Super High School against the Party Affairs Investigation Office.
Mimotojiro really does not need to answer the questions of his subordinate, and there is no problem with this turn.
However, he then tentatively mentioned whether T&G would take action against Qin Detai.
Mimotojiro said that it was not suitable to take action against Qin Detai for the time being, and also mentioned that in order to take action against Qin Detai, he must first remove Qin Detai from the position of chief inspector of the Central Patrol Room.
Hearing Sanbonjiro’s unintentional words, Cheng Qianfan immediately made a guess:
He understood Sanbonjiro's character. This person always made decisions before taking action. Sanbon's words mentioned that he wanted to remove Tan Detai from his position as chief inspector, which showed that it was very likely that Sanbonjiro was already taking action.
Following He Guan is part of the action against Qin Detai.
…
Yes, it seems that He Guan is being followed, and Jin Kemu is implicated.
However, Cheng Qianfan believed that this was a signal that the Japanese wanted to attack Tan Detai.
It is actually not difficult to attack Tan Detai, as long as the Japanese side provides the evidence that Qin Detai is the deputy director of the Shanghai District of the National Party Affairs Investigation Office, such as the confessions of the Party Affairs Investigation Office personnel arrested by the Special Higher Education Section to the French Concession, Tan Detai's The position of chief inspector cannot be kept.
The reason why the Japanese did not provide this evidence to the French Concession.
They are worried about Jin Kemu.
Once Qin Detai is dismissed.
The person most likely to succeed Tan Detai as the Chief Inspector of the Central Patrol Room is the current Deputy Chief Inspector Jin Kemu.
Jin Kemu has always behaved in a hostile manner.
This is what the Japanese do not want to see.
With Qin Detai resigning, the position of Inspector General is bound to be contested.
However, this is an emergency situation.
It is estimated that many people will not have time to act. Then, the Japanese side has already prepared. They will catch everyone off guard and will actively mobilize pro-Japanese elements who are qualified to serve as the inspector of the Central Police Station to win this position.
Cheng Qianfan speculated that Sanbonjiro's intention was to get rid of Qin Detai's position as chief inspector and suddenly force himself to get rid of Jin Kemu's deputy chief inspector, or at the very least, to cause Jin Kemu to lose his bid for the central patrol office. Qualifications for the office of Chief Inspector.
As for the current Jin Kemu, he has no idea that Qin Detai will be deposed by the Japanese, so he cannot see the situation behind it for a while.
If Jin Kemu knew about Qin Detai, with Jin Kemu's shrewdness and sophistication, he would naturally be able to guess a few clues.
Cheng Qianfan tapped his index finger lightly on the table.
Although it is just his unilateral speculation, the whole chain is very clear and it is a more reasonable guess.
So, who will the Japanese choose to replace Tan Detai as the chief inspector of the Central Police Station?
Several names flashed through his mind.
Pétain District?
Jiafei District?
Mailan District?
In addition, he was still thinking about whether he should secretly send a message to Jin Kemu through some channel?
After all, having Jin Kemu, a person with a tough attitude towards Japan, was very useful in the Central District. He could secretly operate through Jin Kemu for many things that Cheng Qianfan was not suitable to do.
Suddenly, Cheng Qianfan thought of a possibility.
The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was feasible.
In other words, this possibility and the huge gains it brings are extremely attractive to him.
…
Night.
In the dark night sky, stars twinkled.
The dog barked first.
Soon, the dog stopped whining.
Li Aquan, his mother-in-law, and children were awakened.
The mother-in-law was so frightened that she hugged the child tightly and hid in the corner, shaking like chaff.
Li Aquan gently got out of bed and came to the window. His fingers were stained with saliva, and he gently poked the window paper and leaned over to take a look.
I saw people moving around outside, and groups of people and horses moved quietly in the dark, passing by the window in formation.
The troops have passed!
Li Aquan was frightened.
He quickly ran to the stove and spread a handful of pot ashes on the faces of his mother-in-law and daughter.
He found a machete in the dark and held it firmly in his hand.
The village is next to the main road leading to the county seat, and there have been constant wars over the years.
Every time there is a war, it is a disaster for ordinary people.
In addition to soldiers, the most common ones are bandits.
I heard that Japanese people who were even more ferocious and worse than animals also came to kill them.
…
Li Aquan's wrists were stiff and his body was stiff. He was worried that his home would be broken into at some point.
Within a pack of cigarettes, there was no movement outside.
He dared to go to the window and look over. There was no one outside, no one around.
Li Aquan rubbed his eyes and looked again, but there was still no one.
He did not dare to open the door and look.
The family was hiding in the house and didn’t know when they fell asleep.
Its daybreak.
Li Ahquan opened the door and looked, and saw his neighbors who were just as doubtful as him.
The street is very quiet.
No one was harmed.
No cattle or sheep were taken away.
Not a single house was burned.
Nothing is missing.
Even the half-bag of rice bran that a neighbor left out to dry in the house was still there.
Everyone looked at each other and asked each other, "Did we really have a battle last night?"
what is that?
Someone shouted.
At this time, everyone noticed that there were writings on many walls.
Li Aquan was proficient in writing, so everyone asked him to read it out.
“Down with Japanese imperialism!”
“Swear to death and not be a slave to the country’s subjugation!”
“Fight to the end!”
“Long live the Chinese nation!”
There is also ‘killing the devils’.
Li Ahquan could see that the three characters "kill the Japanese" were different from the other characters. The characters were ugly, as if they were written by an illiterate person. However, the characters were very large, and one stroke after another seemed to be carved with a knife. Ordinary, very blunt. If you write such words in school, you will be slapped on the palm by the teacher.
“Who wrote this?” someone asked.
"It's the New Fourth Army!" Li Ahquan said. He pointed to the words behind these words, which were all signed, and it said "New Fourth Army"!
“Who are the New Fourth Army?” someone asked again.
Li Aquan shook his head, he didn’t know either.
“He must be a good soldier, right?” he asked in his mind.
Then this question mark turned into an exclamation point in his heart. No people were killed, no houses were burned, no food was robbed, no animals were captured, and no women were raped. This is not a good soldier!
