Chapter 586 Shen Huaiming
After lunch, Shen Huaiming looked at the time on his watch.
“Can’t you stay a little longer?” Mother Wei Chengchu said reluctantly.
Before Shen Huaiming could speak, his father Shen Chengxiang had already 'reprimanded' his mother, "Huaiming is a soldier, and soldiers take it as their duty to protect their families and the country. It is extremely rare for him to take the time to go home during this national crisis." , how can you ask for more!"
“You don’t need to teach me the truth, how can I not know it?” Wei Chengchu glared at her husband.
Shen Huaiming smiled and watched his parents bickering.
He stood up and took his mother's hand.
“Grandma, it’s time for me to go. The Japanese army’s invasion of Wuhan is serious. The whole team is in a war-ready state. I will be ready to take off to kill the enemy at any time.”
“Huai Ming, be careful about your safety.” Wei Chengchu said.
"The little devil who can kill me has not been born yet." Shen Huaiming deliberately showed a proud expression and said to comfort his mother.
As he spoke, he took out a silver dollar from his body and put it into his mother's palm.
“Grandma, take this silver dollar and go to the street to buy whatever you want to eat,” he said.
Sister Shen Yue shouted from the side, "Second brother, I'll go buy it for mom."
"Be good! Listen to your parents." Shen Huaiming looked at his sister, "Read more and learn more knowledge. My brother is on the front line to resist the invaders. The burden of building the country in the future will be on you."
Shen Yue nodded vigorously.
Shen Huaiming looked at his father and said, "Dad, please take care of yourself."
“My body is strong.” Shen Chengxiang endured the pain of separation and said with a smile, “My son, for my father, I will watch you kill the enemy!”
“My son will definitely not disappoint you.”
"good!"
Shen Huaiming looked at his fiancée Wang Luyun, and the beautiful girl was also looking at him.
“Lu Yun, I bought you a cheongsam...” Shen Huaiming said.
"I know, I know, the cheongsam shop in Dacheng Lane." Shen Yue shouted, hugging her future sister-in-law, "My sister-in-law will definitely look great in it."
Wang Luyun went to scratch her sister-in-law's creaky nest.
Shen Huaiming looked at this lively scene and diluted the parting.
He put on his military hat and gave a solemn military salute to his family, "Father, mother, sister, Lu Yun."
Everyone looked at him.
“I’m leaving, please take care of yourself!”
After saying that, Shen Huaiming turned around and left.
The sound of the bells of foreign cars in the alley faded away.
Wang Luyun ran to the door and stared at her fiancé's retreating back.
Shen Yue shouted loudly, "Second brother, take care of yourself!"
…
No. 22, Xue Huali Road.
The Central Patrol Room held a plenary meeting.
Mr. Tande, special assistant to His Excellency Mr. Ferguson, Chief Superintendent of the French Concession Police Station.
Xi Neng, squad leader of the investigation team of the Political Department, and Xiu Gongshen, the translator, were accompanied.
These important figures were all present at the meeting.
Jin Kemu, Chief Inspector of the Central Patrol Room, presided over the meeting.
Jin Kemu first delivered a speech, reviewing and summarizing the recent work of the Central Patrol Room.
“Since Kim took up the post of Chief Inspector, thanks to the hard work and cooperation of all brothers, the detection rate of criminal crimes in our Central District has so far reached 91%, and public security cases are also within control.”
“The entire Central District of the French Concession is peaceful, with almost no doors closed at night. The citizens of the area praise it, and Shangfeng is also very satisfied. This is the credit of Jin Kemu, and the credit of all my colleagues in the Central District.”
Pap, pah, pah.
Inspector Xiao Cheng applauded first, followed by thunderous applause.
The Haozi beside him deliberately asked why the detection rate was not 100%.
“One hundred percent, it’s too fake.” Lu Jiufan said.
“That’s right.” Li Hao smiled and nodded.
Datulu lowered his voice, "That's because of the other nine percent of cases..."
“Shut up!” Cheng Qianfan glanced at his subordinates coldly.
Everyone quickly sat down and shut up.
Jin Kemu was in high spirits, and he talked at length for a long time.
Finally, we have entered the most important moment of today’s meeting.
Mr. Tande, the special assistant to the Chief Superintendent of the French Concession, Mr. Ferguson, stood up and read out the appointment letter on behalf of Mr. Ferguson:
Cheng Qianfan, former Third Inspector of the Central Patrol Room, was promoted to Deputy Chief Inspector of the Central Patrol Room.
In addition, the post of Inspector General of the Third Inspection Team is temporarily held concurrently by Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng Qianfan.
Hurrah hurrah.
There was thunderous applause.
The heroic Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng Qianfan took the stage to give a speech.
The photographer from the public relations department of the patrol room clicked the shutter and the spotlight flashed.
Cheng Qianfan first thanked Chief Inspector Jin Kemujin for his cultivation, then thanked Mr. Xi Neng for his teaching, thanked Mr. Tande for his encouragement and recognition, and thanked Mr. Ferguson for his trust.
Finally, he expressed special thanks to his colleagues for their help, and all his subordinates worked together to help.
…
The 4th Battalion of the Chinese Air Force, the 23rd Squadron.
“Huai Ming, are there any more cigarettes? Give me one.” shouted a man who was writing at his desk.
Shen Huaiming threw the cigarette directly.
He lowered his head and continued writing in his diary.
To be precise, if he dies, this diary will become a suicide note.
The squadron has received instructions that the Japanese army will carry out a large-scale air raid on Wuhan tomorrow. All soldiers participating in the war have written suicide notes and explained their funeral arrangements to avoid leaving any regrets.
“Go home to visit relatives today.”
“At home, I really want to tell my parents how I feel.”
“I was afraid that they would feel uncomfortable, and I was afraid that they would be worried about my safety, so I swallowed the words as soon as they came to my lips.”
“The Japanese invaders accelerated their pace of aggression and the fighting became more intensive.”
“I often fight with Japanese planes in the air.”
“When fighting, there are sacrifices. Maybe one day, my plane may be shot down by a Japanese plane.”
“If that day really comes, father, mother, elder brother, younger sister, Lu Yun, please don’t be sad or sad.”
“I died for the country and the people, and my death was worthwhile.”
“If I die, I would like to express my condolences to my parents. I also hope that my elder brother, older sister, younger brother, and younger sister will continue to join the fight against Japan until the Japanese invaders are driven out of China.”
Shen Huaiming put down his pen and read the diary carefully.
…
After thinking for a while, he turned another page and wrote: To Lu Yun, my wife.
“I love you so much that you can feel it.”
“You love me deeply, and I know it too.”
“We love each other passionately and that’s our blessing.”
“Our country is suffering from Japanese imperialist aggression, which is a misfortune for the country and the nation.”
“When the country is in trouble, our soldiers should not hesitate to sacrifice themselves.”
“We love each other and know each other.”
“We all love our country.”
“That’s enough!”
“Lu Yun, if I die for my country, please don’t be sad or sad.”
“You look up at the blue sky and see the white clouds floating, that’s when I’m protecting you.”
“I love you Huai Ming, April 28, the twenty-seventh year of the Republic of China.”
Shen Huaiming put down his pen again.
He paced for a moment.
Back to the desk again.
Pick up the pen.
“To the eldest brother and the second brother.”
He thought for a long time and finally only came up with one line of text.
"If my brother leaves first, don't be sad, two brothers. I will die for my country and my nation, and I will die without regrets."
Even though he had not contacted his eldest brother Lu Xingge and second brother Cheng Qianfan for many years, he knew that they must be doing extremely dangerous things for the country and the people.
He knew it was confidential and could not write more, so he only left this line of text.
Shanghai.
“The sky in the French Concession is a blue sky.”
“The land in the French Concession is a land of freedom and security.”
“There is no talent in a thousand sails, but I am willing to assist Mr. Jin wholeheartedly to create a stable, united and happy Central District. This Central District should be a model for the French Concession and a model for Shanghai!”
After speaking, Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng Qianfan waved his hand, and two patrol officers came up carrying a plaque, which was given by an enthusiastic citizen and wrote:
Central District to protect the environment and the people, a model district for a bright and prosperous world!
Hurrah hurrah.
There was thunderous applause.
Mr. Tande and Mr. Xi Neng on the rostrum listened to Xiu Gongshen’s translation and nodded frequently. Mr. Jin Kemu and Jin also smiled:
Ke Laosheng’s calligraphy has become increasingly sophisticated.
At the end of the meeting, Cheng Qianfan smiled and accepted congratulations from many colleagues.
The satisfied Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng and his teacher Xiu Gongshen were walking and talking.
In the corridor, Cheng Qianfan looked up:
A flock of white doves flew in the sky, and their whistles crossed the sky.
Inexplicably, he thought of his third brother.
It has been nearly two years since we last saw each other.
The third brother often fights in the sky, fighting to the death with Japanese planes to guard the sky of the motherland.
Take care!
…
The next day, April 29, the twenty-seventh year of the Republic of China.
“The doctor has always lived in seclusion.”
“I spend most of my time in the apartment in Building 4 of the Police Hospital.”
“Even if he comes out occasionally, he usually wears a mask and cannot see his true face.”
In a hidden corner of a cafe on Notre Dame Road, Cheng Qianfan and Qiao Chuntao met secretly. Taozi reported to him about the mysterious doctor who was monitoring the police hospital.
After secret investigation, it was found that the plastic surgeon’s surname was Mao and his first name was Mao Kexin.
To be precise, this should be a surgeon with superb medical skills, who is good at eye and oral surgery.
Cheng Qianfan stirred the coffee spoon and frowned slightly, "He hasn't been to the clinic recently?"
“No.” Qiao Chuntao shook her head.
Cheng Qianfan picked up the coffee cup and took a sip. His original plan was to arrange for someone to go see a doctor in the name of eye plastic surgery and directly contact this mysterious doctor.
It’s just that, apart from Zhou Ru and Sheng Huaizhen, there are no other female agents in the Shanghai Special Intelligence Team.
Neither of them are operational personnel.
The most important thing is that both of them have some relationship with Cheng Qianfan. Once they are suspected, they are likely to implicate suspicion on him.
Cheng Qianfan asked for help from the Wuhan headquarters, asking for the support of a smart and reliable female agent.
And specify that the female agent must have single eyelids.
Dai Chunfeng refused at first.
And he sent a private message, reprimanding Cheng Qianfan for his bad behavior and thinking about all the things he had and didn't have—
“What? You don’t want double eyelids, just single eyelids. How can you play with women now?”
Cheng Qianfan felt deeply aggrieved. He secretly sent a report and gave an explanation, mentioning that the target person had secretly inquired about him.
Dai Virgo finally agreed.
Last month, this female agent with single eyelids arrived in Shanghai, but unexpectedly Dr. Mao suspended her consultation.
According to the information obtained, Dr. Mao is currently concentrating on studying a medical topic and has no time for other things.
…
“Do you think there is anything suspicious about this person?” Cheng Qianfan asked Qiao Chuntao.
"On the surface, this person is following the rules and is busy with medical research. There is nothing abnormal." Qiao Chuntao thought, "But, because of this, I think your suspicion, team leader, is justified."
“Let’s talk and listen.” Cheng Qianfan stirred the coffee spoon and said calmly.
“It’s strange that such a well-behaved person who seems to be concentrating on medical research went to inquire about a person who has nothing to do with him,” Qiao Chuntao said.
“Yes, it’s very strange.” Cheng Qianfan nodded. The person Tao Zi mentioned who had nothing to do with Dr. Mao was Deputy Inspector Cheng.
Tao Zi’s analysis was just as he thought.
Dr. Mao's behavior was very normal, and he was very consistent with his identity as a medical expert obsessed with research. However, it was precisely because he fit this identity so well that the fact that this person secretly inquired about Cheng Qianfan's situation was so... unexpected.
"Team leader, do you want me to sneak in secretly..." Qiao Chuntao asked.
"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "Don't scare the snake."
At this moment, outside the cafe, Li Hao in disguise pressed his hat and lit a cigarette.
This is a sign that something is abnormal.
Cheng Qianfan and Qiao Chuntao immediately chatted about anecdotes about people on the beach.
At the same time, the two of them were secretly vigilant and ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
A few minutes later, Li Hao put out his cigarette butt: the abnormality was resolved and it was a false alarm.
“Will those people who saw the doctor before come back for treatment now?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Yes, although consultations are suspended, this does not include patients who have been treated before." Qiao Chuntao nodded, "According to our investigation, sixteen people have been treated by the doctor, and they will still go for follow-up consultations from time to time. ."
“Choose someone.” Cheng Qianfan put down the coffee spoon, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth.
“Understood.” Qiao Chuntao nodded knowingly, “There are two candidates, please let the team leader decide which one to choose.”
“Tell me about the specific situation of these two people.” Cheng Qianfan said.
…
A few hours later.
A dance hall on Julaida Road.
A group of policemen with armed guns directly opened the door of the dance hall and rushed in.
The ballroom suddenly became chaotic.
“Brother Ninth, Brother Ninth, what are you doing?” Seeing this, the manager of the dance hall hurriedly squeezed over, got close to Lu Jiufan, and secretly sent out a few banknotes, asking anxiously.
"Received a secret report that the gangster Jiang Mulezi's men sneaked into the dance hall." Lu Jiufan did not take the money, but secretly winked at the owner of the dance hall, and then said in a deep voice.
“Brother Ninth.” The manager was sweating profusely.
At this time.
“Everyone, stand against the wall, raise your hands and support the wall.” A thin young policeman next to Lu Jiufan said with a cold face.
After speaking, he walked forward and waved his hands at the same time. The police officers immediately held short guns in their hands, shouted loudly, and drove the guests in the ballroom to stand by the wall.
“Brother Ninth.” The dance hall manager finally recognized the young policeman, “Is that Hou Pingliang?”
Because Hou Pingliang is thinner than before, and his whole temperament has changed greatly.
Of course, there is another reason. In the past, Hou Pingliang was just an ordinary patrolman and did not attract much attention from the dance hall manager. He only knew that there was such a patrolman and was not too impressed.
“My name is Brother Monkey.” Lu Jiufan lowered his voice, “You are looking for death. This person is now a close aide of Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng.”
…
Wuhan.
19 Chinese Air Force fighter jets and 45 fighter jets from the Soviet Volunteer Air Force have already taken off, occupying favorable altitudes from all directions, waiting for enemy aircraft to enter.
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
The shrill sound of air raid sirens rang through the skies over the three towns.
The Japanese plane is coming.
The battle begins in the air.
