Chapter 515 Xiaosi
The car was speeding through the night.
“Team leader, where are you going?” Guo Lou asked while driving.
Wang Kangnian did not answer.
He gritted his teeth and sweat broke out on his forehead.
“Go to the hospital.” Xiao Si said.
The driver Guo Lou still wanted to ask, but he heard Xiaosi say again firmly, "Hospital!"
Guo Lou nodded, turned left at the intersection ahead, entered another road, and stepped on the accelerator again to speed up.
There was dead silence in the car, except for the sound of teeth chattering as Wang Kangnian gritted his teeth and endured the pain.
His arm where he was shot was bandaged with a scarf. The black and white scarf was soaked in blood.
“Xiaosi.” Wang Kangnian said in a hoarse bass voice.
“Brother, I’m here.” Xiao Si whispered.
“You said, Cheng Qianfan...” The blood loss made it difficult for Wang Kangnian to speak.
"Brother, don't talk, let me speak." Xiaosi's voice was very soft, "You want to say, how dare Cheng Qianfan shoot?"
Wang Kangnian’s head nodded slightly.
…
"We never thought that the person who got into Lu Dazhang's car would be Cheng Qianfan." Xiaosi frowned slightly and said while thinking, "Cheng Qianfan is the inspector of the Central District, and Lu Dazhang is from the Xiafei District. Inspector, these two people can contact each other in private and openly."
He glanced at Wang Kangnian with concern, thought quickly, and continued, "However, Cheng Qianfan was wearing a hat, a mask, and a windbreaker turned up. It was obvious that he did not want others to see this meeting between him and Lu Dazhang. "
"If Cheng Qianfan does not show up today, but we find out later that it was him in Lu Dazhang's car, we have reason to suspect that there is an ulterior contact between him and Lu Dazhang, which is problematic, and may even be partially Proof, brother, your suspicion of Lu Dazhang’s investigation direction is correct.”
"However, Cheng Qianfan not only showed up, this person is indeed as arrogant and domineering as the rumors said." Xiaosi paused, thought and said, "He shot you as soon as he showed up."
He glanced at Wang Kangnian with concern and saw Wang Kangnian gritting his teeth hard. This was not just to endure the pain of the gunshot wound, but also with hatred.
“In the end, after learning that we were from the Detective Section of the Dadao Municipal Government, Cheng Qianfan still shot and killed Brother Ding,” Xiaosi said.
Wang Kangnian groaned, or rather growled, like a wounded beast.
"Cheng Qianfan's behavior, looking at it now, is most likely to be vented." Xiao Si said, and he touched Wang Kangnian's forehead.
"Continue..." Wang Kangnian gritted his teeth and said. Due to blood loss, his brain was not very clear right now. Xiao Si was his brain at this time.
…
"I just said that if Cheng Qianfan doesn't show up today, there is something wrong with Lu Dazhang, and Cheng Qianfan is also suspicious. There is some unknown secret connection between the two." Xiao Si pushed up the frame of his glasses and continued, "Now, Cheng Qianfan's arrogant and domineering behavior has initially rejected this judgment."
"In this case, I speculate that there is some secret contact between Cheng Qianfan and Lu Dazhang, and this contact is not visible to the light."
“However, when it really comes to light, for the two of them, it is not a problem that is enough to hurt or shake their foundation.”
“Since the destination of the two people’s trip is a warehouse, I guess it must be related to cargo trading.”
“And the most likely items are contraband such as arms and medicines.”
"Shanghai is now owned by the Japanese, and the trade in contraband is a target of severe crackdowns. Once exposed...these two men are inspectors. The Japanese cannot reach into the concession, and the French cannot allow the Japanese to take it. Two patrol chiefs, however, the warehouse will definitely be closed down, and the person may also be punished, which will bring some kind of trouble to the two of them."
“Money!” Wang Kangnian whispered hoarsely.
"Yes, money." Xiao Si nodded, "Cheng Qianfan is extremely greedy for money. Our move may cause him a lot of money losses. Cheng Qianfan, who values money very seriously, became angry."
"Whether he shot at you or killed Brother Ding, it was Cheng Qianfan who was venting his anger." Xiao Si said and lowered his head to listen, and heard Wang Kangnian say, "Smoke." ’
He took out the cigarette case from Wang Kangnian's body, took out a cigarette and put it into Wang Kangnian's mouth, then took out a lighter and lit it.
Wang Kangnian breathed rapidly, took a small breath, coughed violently, and almost turned his eyes white.
Xiaosi quickly took away the cigarette again.
…
He saw Wang Kangnian open his mouth to speak, but the voice was too low for him to hear clearly, so he immediately bent down and leaned in close.
“Smoke is irritating.” Wang Kangnian gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.
Ah, I made a mistake.
Xiao Si immediately understood that Wang Kangnian was not trying to smoke just now, but was trying to point out the clue about cigarettes.
“Brother, are you saying that the way you smoked after you got out of the car angered Cheng Qianfan?” Xiaosi asked in a low voice.
Xiao Si was silent and thinking. After a while, he nodded, "Brother, your analysis is correct."
He remembered a detail:
Lu Dazhang, who always adheres to the principle of "leaving a tightrope in everything", is willing to let them go, but Cheng Qianfan orders his men to stop them.
At that time, Cheng Qianfan made an action. He raised his hand, and one of his subordinates handed him a cigarette. He shrugged, and another of his subordinates lit the cigarette for him!
Seems to be deliberately trying to be cool.
This behavior does not seem to be a problem, but after careful consideration, it is most likely a tit-for-tat response to Wang Kangnian's smoking style after getting off the car.
"Cheng Qianfan is cruel and ruthless, and he is so proud of himself at such a young age. He can't stand your behavior after you get off the bus, brother." Xiaosi said softly, "At that time, he had already decided to kill one of us. What a trick. The handsome behavior was intentional on his part, and he responded tit-for-tat, and he can't stand you, brother."
"He didn't dare to kill brother. Brother Ding drew his gun recklessly before, which gave him an excuse to kill." Xiaosi looked at Wang Kangnian and found that Wang Kangnian's face was extremely pale. He said hurriedly, "Brother, hold on, go to the hospital right away. ”
Wang Kangnian looked at him with his eyes lowered.
Xiaosi understood what he meant.
He continued.
“Besides venting his anger and embarrassment, Cheng Qianfan’s reason for killing people should be to establish his authority.”
“Just because he keeps asking us why we are following him, it shows that he is very concerned about being followed, and he wants to kill him as a warning to others.”
Wang Kangnian’s cold eyes exuded a trace of satisfaction.
Among his men, the most important one is not his number one general Ding Naifei, but the seemingly inconspicuous Xiao Si.
Cheng Qianfan killed Ding Naifei, which made Wang Kangnian very sad.
If it was Xiao Si who was killed instead of Ding Naifei, Wang Kangnian's hatred for Cheng Qianfan would reach the point of madness.
…
"Wang Kangnian can't move. He is now very valued in front of Sanben. I know this situation." Cheng Qianfan smoked dully. "If Wang Kangnian is killed, Sanben will definitely be suspicious."
“So, I can only kill his men to vent his anger and establish his authority.”
“Wang Kangnian is extremely insidious and cunning. If our contact is broken this time, he will definitely continue to pursue it.”
"We assumed that we came into contact with this excuse for the purpose of arms trading. If it is discovered, this matter may be exposed. Normally, I will lose a business or even have the warehouse seized." Cheng Qianfan sneered, "Extremely greedy for money. If Inspector Cheng doesn't vent his anger, he wouldn't be me."
"Establish your authority." Lu Dazhang didn't smoke, holding a cigarette in his hand. "You have to give the other party the impression of killing others as a warning. You have to show that you don't like being followed."
"Yes, establishing power is inevitable." Cheng Qianfan exhaled a puff of smoke, "My identity has been determined, and I want to avoid being followed to the greatest extent. I killed Ding Naifei to warn everyone not to follow me. I dare to kill even the Japanese’s dogs, so others who want to follow me will be careful!”
"The Japanese side..." Lu Dazhang asked the question he was concerned about. Although he believed in his comrades and knew that Comrade Huo Miao was not someone who would lose his mind due to anger, he still had to ask clearly.
…
"No, Ding Naifei is a dog of the Japanese. Kentaro Miyazaki is Japanese at heart. The lives of Chinese people are nothing in his eyes. Being followed by his own dog made him angry for a moment because of the possible loss of money. Killing this dog is a normal behavior." Cheng Qianfan raised the corners of his mouth and said contemptuously.
"No one will blame me for killing a dog." Cheng Qianfan said, "In the hearts of the Japanese, the lives of Chinese people are not lives, even if they are traitors who surrender to them."
“If Sanben punishes me because I killed an ‘insignificant’ traitor, it will even cause dissatisfaction among other special agents.”
"Also, I am just close to Japan, and I am not a traitor. Wang Kangnian and others are just dogs of the Japanese. They came to our French Concession with guns and followed me. If I don't kill one or two people, my words will be in the French Concession. Does it still work?”
"In Shanghai, the competition is about who is ruthless! I must first safeguard my position in the French Concession! The Japanese don't need incompetent pro-Japanese elements." Cheng Qianfan said with a sneer.
“Inspector Xiao Cheng is extremely powerful.” Lu Dazhang gave a thumbs up.
"Besides, given my 'friendship' with Sanben." Cheng Qianfan chuckled, "There's no way he could punish me for something 'big as sesame'."
“Money feeds friendship.” Lu Dazhang said with a smile.
Cheng Qianfan looked at the river, took a puff of cigarette, raised the corner of his mouth, and continued, "In addition, maybe in Sanben's view, I killed Ding Naifei, not only was it right, but it was also meritorious."
Lu Dazhang coughed and it was best to avoid smoking. He lowered his head and sniffed the cigarette, turned around and asked, "What about the deputy chief inspector?"
“Yes, it’s too late to be happy that the life of a little traitor has been exchanged for the favor of the French.” Cheng Qianfan said.
At this point, he paused and suddenly said, "Actually, I also want to kill the thin and small man with glasses next to Wang Kangnian."
As he spoke, he sighed, "It's a pity, there is no reason."
