Early this morning, Principal Zhang, Wang Zhimin, and others got together and chatted about last night's events, and finally everyone decided to go to see the newspaper guy who was injured yesterday. Several people got into Wang Zhimin's car. After a while, they arrived at the hospital, and when they entered the ward, they saw the guy lying on the bed wrapped in gauze, and everyone's hearts were indescribably heavy, and they felt a stuffy breath pressing on their chests, because until now they didn't know who did it, although they vaguely suspected that it was Japanese, but there was no evidence.

Fortunately, none of the injured people are in danger of life, but it is inevitable that they will recuperate in the hospital for a while. After comforting the crowd and promising them more subsidies, they left the hospital.

Before I walked out of the door of the hospital, I found that it was bustling outside and it was very noisy, and when I got to the door, I saw that there were many people at the door of the hospital, and there were some black cars, and one of the stars was an old man in his sixties wearing a black coat robe, holding two jade and jade balls in his left hand, and a wrench on the thumb of his right hand. Exudes the momentum of a superior person.

The old man walked forward slowly, and when he reached the front ward, he walked in, and it seemed that among the innocent people who were injured yesterday, there should be his relatives. In the whispers of everyone, everyone learned that this old man was the vice president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, and one of the people who was injured yesterday was the younger brother of his third aunt. This elder could not stand the crying of his aunt's wife, so he came to visit early this morning to understand the situation, and it seemed that he also wanted to inquire about who was so arrogant and dared to commit murder in the concession.

This president's name is Zhang Fashan, and he originally wanted to be the president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, regardless of whether he was elected by the Japanese or the British. The president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce gave Li Qi a victory, which made him very unhappy in his heart.

Now he feels that the opportunity has come, since some merchants have been injured by the rioters, then now he has to make decisions for these injured merchants, so that everyone will regard him as the backbone, and everything will give him some face, and his position will be stronger.

Looking at these injured people, Chairman Zhang couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, feeling that the Lend-Lease was becoming more and more inactive, and the Japanese had openly shot and killed people in the concession a few days ago, and the matter was over. Such a big thing happened again last night, and the murderer has not been caught until now. Chairman Zhang felt that he had had enough of the British bird's spirit and the unreasonable arrogance of the Japanese over the years, and now was the time to return the color.

It was an opportunity to encourage the merchants to march. When the time comes, the lease can't solve the problem, and I will stand up and wave my arms again. You can increase your influence in the eyes of the British and the Japanese, and you can also fall into a good reputation.

8:30 minutes.

Principal Zhang, Xiaoxue, Wang Zhimin, and Li Chao came to the central square of the concession on time. It's the same time as yesterday, but everyone's mood is heavier today.

Last night's smashing, looting, and burning incident cast a shadow on everyone's hearts.

Principal Zhang stood on the high platform, swept the people below with his eyes, and said loudly: "Students, you must be very curious that you have not received the free Chinese student newspaper today. Last night, a group of thugs came to the newspaper office of our Chinese student newspaper, smashed the opportunity when they saw people, and finally set fire to the newspaper office. The fire was raging, the smoke obscured the sky, and the burning fire spread to the surrounding shops, and the crowd was injured by the mob while fighting the fire.

They disappeared without a trace after arson and looting, and now dozens of people are being treated in hospitals, some of them are dying, and many more are suffering in pain.

Although I don't know who did it, I believe that this incident must have something to do with the Japanese, because our Chinese student newspaper is trying to expose all kinds of evil deeds of the Japanese, and now they have no way to stop the publication of the newspaper, so they use such despicable means. However, I would like to tell this group of humble aggressors that the bloody nature of the Chinese nation has been aroused, and no one can extinguish it. ”

Li Chao saw that President Zhang's speech had resonated with everyone, so he took the lead in shouting: "Down with Japanese imperialism, severely punish the murderers, and release the innocent students."

The people below listened to President Zhang's more and more passionate speech, and the crowd gathered more and more, and in addition to students and citizens, many people joined in. These people should be the businessmen who were instigated by President Zhang, and everyone felt that her words were very reasonable when they listened to President Zhang's words.

Under the leadership of President Zhang, the huge procession slowly marched forward. Shouting slogans as he walked, bursts of sound pierced into the sky. The route of the parade is still the same as yesterday, and the target is still the government building in the concession, and now everyone is very dissatisfied with the inaction of the concession, and the Japanese openly shoot and kill people in the concession, and the concession authorities have not dealt with it properly. Now that such a big thing has happened again, and the murderer has not been caught, it can really be said that the crowd is excited, and after a while, a huge team has come to the intersection of the concession administrative building.

Bailey got the news early and set up a checkpoint at the intersection. Looking at the surging crowd that was even more than yesterday, Bailey couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The number of patrols behind him has increased significantly, with the British patrolling, the Chinese patrolling, and the Indian patrolling all looking nervous.

"Ms. Zhang, please don't move any further. Bailey had unknowingly used the word please, and he was really afraid that the angry crowd would rush forward and tear him to pieces.

Principal Zhang looked at Bailey and said, "We can not move forward, there are only two requirements, the first is to find out the murderer and punish the murderer severely, and the second is to release Zhou Min." ”

After Principal Zhang finished saying these two requests, the people behind him echoed one after another: "Severely punish the murderer and release Zhou Min." ”

Bailey couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing these two requests. He couldn't do either of these requests. But in order to delay time, he still agreed to consult his superiors. "Ms. Zhang, please wait here, and I'll go to the chief to report. ”

After saying that, he trotted all the way and soon disappeared. After Bailey came to the administration building, he first hid in the men's bathroom, took a hard puff of cigarette, sorted out his mood, came to the door of Flender's office, and knocked slowly.

"Come in," came Flender's deep voice from the room.

After Bailey entered, he saluted first, and said to Flender: "The captain's procession today is bigger, and the intersections around the administrative building are almost blocked. The demonstrators made two demands, the first was to find out the murderer and severely punish the murderer, and the second was to release Zhou Min. ”

Flender looked at Bailey disapprerovingly. "Haven't you found the murderer yet?"

Bailey wiped a cold sweat and said, "I'm sorry chief, I made this group of people too mysterious, and I haven't found them until now." ”

"Bailey, you idiot, if you can't find the murderer, the concession will be turned upside down, and I also know that the procession has become bigger, because there are many businessmen joining today, and many of the people who were injured yesterday are businessmen, there is a saying in China called cold lips and teeth, and they are all worried about their situation now, do you understand what I mean?"

Bailey didn't dare to move even if he was foamed at the mouth by Flender, but he hated the murderers to death in his heart and vowed to dismantle them.

"Chief, I think this matter must have something to do with the Japanese, because the free newspapers published by the newspaper in the past two days are all denouncing the crimes of these natural dwarves, and these Oriental dwarves must have done this out of revenge. Let's see if we're talking to the Japanese," Bailey said cautiously to Flender.

Frando thought for a moment and felt that Bailey's words made sense, waved his hand at Bailey, warned him to do everything he could, and picked up the phone when he caught the murderer. I dialed the number, and it seemed that he also felt that it was time to talk to the Japanese.

At this time, Bailey did not want to go back to Luka and face the angry crowd.

After returning to Luka, Bailey said to Principal Zhang: "Ms. Zhang, I have reported the situation to the chief, who is now interviewing the Japanese. Please don't be impulsive and wait quietly for news. ”

Principal Zhang looked back at what everyone said to Bailey, "Okay, then we'll wait here." I can't guarantee what will happen if there is no definite news before three o'clock this afternoon?"

After Principal Zhang said this, he sat on the ground and asked Li Chao to find a person with more status in the procession and ask them to discuss.

In the end, it was agreed that if no definite information was received before 3 p.m., demonstrations would be intensified in the evening.

When Bailey saw that everyone was quietly waiting for an answer, he couldn't wait to go back to the patrol room for a meeting. Bailey angrily yells at his men, demanding that they find the killer within two hours.

As a matter of fact. After some investigation by the Chinese patrol last night, many people have already grasped some information, but they are reluctant to sue Sù Bailey.

Everyone still hoped that the news in their hands could be exchanged for two dollars, but Bailey just didn't mention it. made everyone very disappointed, seeing him so angry today, everyone also knows that the matter is imminent. So they gathered the news in their hands and asked each other about it. Hopefully, one answer can be synthesized to find the murderer.

According to everyone's analysis, the perpetrators must be Shanghai locals, or even people from the concession, and the perpetrator is by no means a single person, which can be known from the injured people. The group of people who can commit murder in a short period of time and can still be evacuated must have done this kind of thing often, and normal good people will definitely not do this.

The patrolmen targeted the gangs, as they were the only ones capable of doing such things for the Japanese. As a result of Wang Jingwei's defection, the whole of China is now in the midst of a wave of defection to Japan. Millions of anti-Japanese armed forces behind enemy lines changed their course one after another, turning to Wang Puppet Political Axe in Nanjing or Wang Kemin's provisional government in North China, and Qi Xieyuan, a remnant of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, was secretly instigated by Okamura Ningji to formally form the North China Public Security Army in Beiping, with 12 group armies under its jurisdiction and a pre-formed strength of up to 500,000 troops! All of a sudden, all the anti-Japanese armed forces transformed from bandits and family armed forces became Han annihilation forces!

As a matter of fact, in the middle of March of the 28th year of the Republic of China (1939), this sudden downward trend reached the highest level! On 12 March, Cai Xiongfei, deputy commander of a certain division of the Jinsui Army, broke away from the Jinsui Army with two regiments and defected! On 13 March, Gong Bingfan, commander of the 34th Division, led his troops to surrender at Zhongtiao Mountain, creating a precedent for the Central Army to surrender to the enemy as a whole division! On 15 March, Li Changjiang, deputy commander-in-chief of the guerrilla corps of the Sulu Theater, led eight detachments (regiments) to defect in northern Jiangsu! On 16 March, the Southern Jiangsu Theater was loyal and righteous to save the enemy. Deputy Commander-in-Chief He Xingjian announced that he would break away from the battle sequence of the National Revolutionary Army and lead 50,000 troops to join Wang's puppet government.

By the end of March of the 28th year of the Republic of China, Central China and North China were already full of thieves!

Even the regular army had surrendered to Japan, and the patrols were fully convinced that the gangs in Shanghai must have been bought by the Japanese.
