Chapter 870 The enemy is in the patrol room? (Ask for monthly ticket)
Cheng Qianfan sat back in the armchair, looking a little tired.
He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and exhaled a long stream of smoke.
His mind was spinning rapidly. He needed to calm down and analyze in detail the reasons why Guanghua Bookstore and Comrade Wang Jun were exposed.
Despite being extremely worried about the safety of Comrade Wang Jun in his heart, and the resulting worries about the safety of the special party branch in the entire French Concession, Cheng Qianfan knew that he had to calm down at this time.
Even if the mountain is about to collapse, you need to remain calm.
Only calm analysis can make the most accurate judgment and make the most appropriate response.
According to Da Toulu's report, it was a Sanguang coder nicknamed "Chuck" who gave him clues about the Red Party.
‘Chuck’ has a distant cousin, Luo Zizi who works at Samweiheng on Father Jin Road.
On this day, Luo Laizi went to Chuck's home and accidentally caught a glimpse of the old newspapers that Chuck used to paper the windows.
"I think I've seen this person before." Luo Laizi pointed to a photo in the newspaper.
This is the Japanese announcement in the newspaper of "Execution of Japanese Haters". The photo was taken after Comrade Kang Erniu was arrested and sacrificed.
Hearing that Luo Zizi said that he had seen Kang Erniu, a red party member who was executed by the Japanese, Chuck didn't believe it at first. He shook his head and joked, "Then you are at a big loss. If this person had been reported to the police station while he was still alive, he would have paid at least ten yuan." .”
Luo Laizi didn't believe it when he saw the chuck. He was so anxious that he picked out two **** of boogers and stuck them directly on the cheeks of the face in the photo in the newspaper.
“What are you doing? You’re stupid!” Chuck cursed.
“It’s this person!” Luo Laizi stared at the newspaper, then nodded.
"Okay, yes, yes." Chuck yawned and didn't pay much attention.
Luo Laizi thought for a while and suddenly said, "I met this man's accomplice two days ago."
He was stunned for a moment. He took a deep look at his relative. Seeing that he didn't look like he was lying, he asked, "Really?"
“I’ve really seen it.” Luo Laizi nodded vigorously.
"where?"
“Guanghua Bookstore.”
Chuck was overjoyed and took Luo Zizi to Guanghua Bookstore to secretly identify the person. Luo Zizi confirmed from Luo Zizi that the owner of Guanghua Bookstore was an associate of Kang Erniu, a red party member who was executed by the Japanese.
Subsequently, Chuck hurriedly reported the matter to Da Toulu, who was a non-staff investigator under Da Toulu.
Cheng Qianfan flicked the ashes from his cigarette and remained silent.
He never expected that Comrade Wang Jun would be exposed due to such an accidental factor.
Luo Laizi's recognition of Kang Erniu and Wang Jun actually stemmed from the coincidence more than three years ago.
Zhuang Ze rebelled after being captured by Wang Kangnian. Wang Kangnian placed him in the Shuanglongfang Apartment on Father Jin Road and formulated an extremely insidious fishing plan, intending to arrange for Zhuang Ze to infiltrate our party.
Zhuang Ze wants to eat delicious food.
The agent from the Party Affairs Investigation Department asked him for Sanweiheng’s Braised Pig’s Knuckles with Bean Curd.
Luo Laizi is the person who delivers the package of rice.
While delivering the packed rice back, Luo Laizi bumped into someone without paying attention, and bumped his head against the wall and made a bag.
He expected to be beaten and scolded by the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party would help him up and apologize first.
Another person saw Luo Laizi having inconvenience on his legs and knocked his head, so he gave Luo Laizi a nickel.
As a boy who delivers meals, it is common for him to be beaten and scolded. This is the first time Luo Laizi has encountered this kind of situation where instead of being beaten, he got an apology and 'compensation' for bumping into someone.
Hence, Luo Laizi remembered this incident very clearly, and also remembered the appearance of the two men clearly.
This man recognized Kang Erniu from the notification photo of the Japanese army's murder of Kang Erniu, and then once again recalled Comrade Wang Jun, whom he met by chance not long ago.
Cheng Qianfan felt bitter in his heart. He could tell that the man Luo Laizi bumped into was Wang Jun, and the person who gave Luo Laizi 50 cents was Kang Erniu.
He gritted his teeth and felt restless.
Three years ago, a very small thing, a kind act by Wang Jun and Kang Erniu, actually left such a hidden danger!
But, who could have thought of it!
…
Vice President Cheng seems to be in a good mood.
He came down from the office upstairs to patrol, chatted and laughed with the brothers, and threw a Marlboro to the police officers.
Later, Vice President Cheng went to sit with the medical officer Lao Huang for a while, and he must have had a few sips of wine.
Finally, Vice President Cheng also called and ordered a table from Chunfeng Deyilou, where he and Lieutenant Pitt from the Political Department had a delicious meal.
‘Mr. Xiao Cheng’s’ good mood came to an abrupt end at around seven o’clock in the evening.
The joint operation team led by Lu Hu, deputy inspector of the third inspection tour, and assisted by Fu Zhiyi, the second inspection inspector, returned.
Hearing the sound of military trucks in the yard, Vice President Cheng came down excitedly to 'welcome' his men's triumphant return.
But he saw three cars parked in the yard.
The first thing he saw was Datulu, who got off the co-pilot of Dangtou Junkari.
Datulu's expression was gloomy.
Lu Jiufan was a little angry.
Hao Zai also looked livid.
Fu Zhiyi, who was on the second patrol, also looked resentful.
Cheng Qianfan's face immediately darkened. Without asking, he had already guessed that this arrest would yield nothing.
“What’s going on?” Cheng Qianfan asked coldly.
"Inspector." Da Toulu came up to report, "No one was arrested."
“The information is inaccurate?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
"The information is correct." Datou Lu drooped his head, "It was a step too late and he escaped."
Cheng Qianfan looked at Lu Jiufan with a gloomy gaze, "You tell me."
"Report to Brother Fan." Lu Jiufan sighed and said, "When we arrived at Guanghua Bookstore, we saw the door open. When the brothers broke in, they found no one."
"Run away." Haozi on the side added, "There are still dishes and chopsticks on the table that haven't been cleared in time."
Cheng Qianfan's face became increasingly grim. He glanced sideways at Fu Zhiyi, who was on the second patrol. The latter was startled and said quickly, "Report to Vice President Cheng, the second patrol is on guard outside and saw no one."
As he spoke, he glanced at Cheng Qianfan, seemingly hesitant, and finally gritted his teeth, "Vice President Cheng, according to what my subordinates have seen, everyone who knows this information today and everyone involved in the operation is questionable. object."
Hearing this, Datou Lu laughed angrily. He looked at Fu Zhiyi, "Fu Zhiyi, do you mean that Vice President Cheng and I are also suspects?"
"Vice President Cheng can't be a spy." Fu Zhiyi seemed to dare not look at Datou Lu. He lowered his head, but he still said this with a pinched neck.
Da Tou Lu is very angry. Vice President Cheng cannot have a problem. Does that mean there is a problem with Da Tou Lu?
Fu Zhiyi's words are almost equivalent to saying that the problem lies with Lu Hu's third patrol!
How can Da Toulu not be angry? !
“Shut up!” Cheng Qianfan scolded, “I’m not good at arresting people, but I’m good at quarreling!”
He was obviously furious, and he looked around at everyone with cold eyes.
Everyone was silent as "Mr. Xiao Cheng" glanced at them.
"Lu Hu, Lu Jiufan, Zhong Guohao, and Fu Zhiyi are coming with me." Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly, "The others disperse!"
"yes!"
Everybody shouted in unison.
Cheng Qianfan ignored it. He walked straight through the waiting room and went upstairs with a sinking face.
All the patrol officers in the arresting hall were afraid to show their anger. They watched several people headed by Datou Lu go upstairs with their heads hanging down.
A patrolman whispered, "Vice President Cheng is very angry."
“Can you not be angry? Brother Fan hates the Red Party the most.” explained the senior and knowledgeable patrol officer.
…
Office of the Deputy Inspector General.
Cheng Qianfan had an angry look on his face. He put his hands on the desk and looked at the people coldly. "Tell me what's going on."
Da Toulu was about to speak first. Cheng Qianfan raised his hand and pointed at Fu Zhiyi, who was on the second patrol, "Fu Zhiyi, you speak first."
"Report to Vice President Cheng." Fu Zhiyi smiled bitterly, "I really don't know what to say. When I got to Guanghua Bookstore, I was arranged by Deputy Inspector Lu to lead people to guard the perimeter."
Cheng Qianfan looked at Da Toulu.
Da Toulu nodded reluctantly.
Cheng Qianfan knew what was going on. The target of this arrest operation had been confirmed in advance, and the information should be accurate. Therefore, this was the credit of his hands. Da Toulu did not want the second patrol to share the credit, so he directly Forcibly ordered the second patrol Fu Zhiyi to lead people to guard the perimeter.
"You go back first." Cheng Qianfan glanced at Fu Zhiyi, "The news has been leaked and must be investigated strictly. Your department will conduct a self-examination first and tell me the results of the self-examination tomorrow."
“Yes!” Fu Zhiyi was obviously relieved and saluted.
When leaving, Fu Zhiyi glanced at Da Toulu with a "gloating" look:
Da Toulu wanted to exclude him from meritorious service, but now it's good. The news leaked and the Red Party ran away early. The suspicion on his side was the least, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
This smug villain!
Datou Lu saw Fu Zhiyi's expression in his eyes, hated him in his heart, and vowed to punish this villain sooner or later.
…
"Tell me about it." Cheng Qianfan took out the cigarette case from the drawer, stuffed a cigarette into his mouth, threw the cigarette case on the desk, and said with a cold snort.
If this had happened in the past, Datulu and others would have "consciously" picked up their cigarette packs and started smoking. However, in this situation, the three of them were trembling with fear and did not dare to make the slightest move.
"Inspector, my subordinate asked the tobacconist next to the bookstore. Seven or eight minutes before we arrived at the bookstore, the bookstore owner hurried out." Datulu said.
"Is the door open? Where are the other boys in the store?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a frown.
“The bookstore owner stood at the door and said to the clerk that he had something to go out and would come back later.” Lu Jiufan added.
“You idiot!” Cheng Qianfan scolded, “If I guessed correctly, the boy in the store must have run away too.”
"Brother Fan Mingjian." Haozi interjected, "The back door is open. The young man should have ran away from the back door. The two of them were acting for the neighbors."
“What did you find?” Cheng Qianfan asked without giving up.
“When I entered the store, I saw that the brazier was still burning.” Da Toulu handed the briefcase in his hand to Cheng Qianfan, “My subordinate brought back the documents that have not been burned yet.”
“Where are the ones that were burned?” Cheng Qianfan asked directly.
“The other party is an expert and smashed the ashes with chopsticks.” Datou Lu understood what Cheng Qianfan meant and said quickly.
Seeing Cheng Qianfan looking at the briefcase, Hao Zai on the side said, "Brother Fan, the briefcase was found from the bookstore. It is empty and can be used to store things."
Cheng Qianfan poured out the burned documents from his briefcase and carefully spread them out on his desk.
“Inspector, it is undoubtedly the Red Party.” Da Toulu said. He pointed to a half-burned piece of paper and said, “This is it.”
Cheng Qianfan picked it up and read it, and could see the words on the header: Mobilize the masses, publicize our party’s idea of uniting and resisting Japan by establishing a united front for the entire nation, and establish the determination to resist the war for a long time...
He nodded, this literal expression is indeed a red party.
“Chifei!” Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly.
He raised his head and looked at the three of them, "According to what you said, the other party left seven or eight minutes ago."
Cheng Qianfan pondered deeply, "After getting the news, they hurriedly burned the documents, and then evacuated. When do you think they got the news before you arrived?"
"About ten minutes." Datulu thought for a while and said, "The documents were just burned hastily, and they evacuated in a hurry."
“Check!” Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice with a cold expression, “Check if anyone has been to Guanghua Bookstore or had contact with anyone from Guanghua Bookstore in the five minutes before and after this time period.”
"Understood." Da Toulu said, feeling a little relieved in his heart. Since the inspector ordered him to be responsible for investigating the matter, it meant that the inspector trusted him.
“Is there a telephone in Guanghua Bookstore?” Cheng Qianfan suddenly asked.
"No." The three of them thought for a while, then Lu Jiufan shook his head and said, "The grocery store next to the bookstore has a phone, but the bookstore does not."
Cheng Qianfan looked at Hao Zai.
“I’m going to check if there is anyone who called the grocery store looking for the bookstore.” Hao Zai said.
Cheng Qianfan nodded and waved his hand, "It won't take a while, let's check it now."
“Yes!” Hao Zai glanced at the team leader, nodded and left.
Cheng Qianfan turned to Lu Jiufan again and said, "Lao Jiu, go and lead someone to secretly keep an eye on Guanghua Bookstore."
"Brother Fan means..." Lu Jiufan thought for a moment and showed joy, "I understand!"
“If there are dates but there are no dates, it will be a three-pole attack.” Cheng Qianfan said calmly, “What if some red party members who don’t know about the incident in the bookstore throw themselves into the trap.”
“Yes!” Lu Jiufan left happily.
…
Hao Zai and Lu Jiufan left, leaving only Cheng Qianfan and Da Toulu in the office.
Cheng Qianfan stared at Da Toulu coldly.
This made Datou Lu's slightly relieved mood start to become tense again. He smiled bitterly and said, "Inspector, it's my incompetence in doing things, please punish me."
Cheng Qianfan ignored Da Toulu. He rolled the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray and put it out as if venting his anger.
“How likely is it that the news leaked from inside the patrol room?” Cheng Qianfan looked at Da Toulu with a gloomy look and asked.
Seeing that Da Toulu was about to speak, he raised his hand with an impatient expression on his face, as if he was trying to hold back his anger. "Don't answer me in a hurry. Think about it carefully, or do you have any suspicions in your mind?"
