About half an hour later, Liu Jianren, deputy head of the Fifth Action Group of the Shanghai Station of the Central Command, and Sun Chengshu, a member of the Third Group of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, each of them took a rickshaw and arrived at the gate of the Japanese Navy Club on Baoshan Road in the Zhabei area.

When the two of them got out of the rickshaw and wanted to enter the Japanese Navy Club, they were immediately blocked by two Japanese gendarmerie soldiers in charge of guarding.

More than half an hour ago, there were only two Japanese gendarmerie soldiers in charge of guarding the gate of the Japanese Navy Club, but as more and more guests entered, more and more people were naturally dispatched.

This time, more than 20 Japanese puppet policemen were specially deployed from the Huxi Police Station, and together with these two Japanese gendarmerie soldiers, they were responsible for guarding the gate of the Japanese Navy Club and searching all the people who entered and exited.

In addition to the requirement that no one entering or leaving the Japanese Navy Club should bring guns, ammunition, or knives and daggers, they must show an invitation card for tonight's banquet before entering the club, otherwise they will be blocked from entering.

Of course, if a person is found to be carrying dangerous goods through a search, he will be arrested by the Japanese puppet police on the spot, sent to the Huxi Police Station for temporary detention, and will be killed on the spot if he resists.

Seeing this scene, Luo Jiabin, the squad leader who led the reinforcements from the Huxi Police Station, immediately waved his hand and led several policemen to besiege Liu Jianren and Sun Chengshu, who were carrying a leather suitcase in their hands.

"Who are you two and what are you doing here, you don't have an invitation to tonight's banquet? Also, both of you must open the suitcase for inspection. Captain Luo asked Liu Jianren and Sun Chengshu arrogantly.

Just now, Liu Jianren and Sun Chengshu had just gotten off the rickshaw when they were intercepted by the two Japanese gendarmerie soldiers, because they were not in suits and leather shoes, but dressed ordinarily, and they were incompatible with the grand dinner held in the Japanese Navy Club tonight.

Facing Captain Luo's questioning, Liu Jianren accompanied the smiling face and took the lead in replying: "Officer, I am a tailor who makes clothes, I went inside, not to attend tonight's banquet, but to send a freshly made suit to a distinguished guest who has already entered the inside, he said to wear it to the banquet tonight, and specially called me to send it over." ”

After listening to Liu Jianren's answer, Captain Luo was very curious about this and asked, "What is the name of this distinguished guest you are talking about?" What does he do? ”

"Report to the police officer, my distinguished guest, his name is Chen Lei, I heard that he is working as an assistant to Mr. Iwai Ichiro, the deputy consul general of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai. As for Mr. Chen Lei, what does his specific job do, then I don't know! ”

A Japanese gendarmerie soldier standing next to him, who could understand Chinese, heard the tailor in front of him say that he had come to deliver a suit to Chen Lei, a Chinese assistant to Iwai Ichiro who had entered the room, and immediately nodded.

"Captain Luo, about half an hour ago, there was indeed a Chinese assistant named Chen Lei named Iwai Ichiro Jun, who had already entered it. It seems that the person who is looking for this tailor is this Chen Sang. ”

Hearing what the Japanese military police said, Captain Luo did not dare to slack off, he knew that whether it was a Japanese bigwig like Iwai Ichiro in Shanghai, or his assistant, a man named Chen Lei, he could not afford to provoke him, the small captain of the Huxi Police Department.

After not thinking about it, Captain Luo nodded at the Japanese military policeman he just mentioned, and then called a police officer standing next to him to follow the man who claimed to be a tailor and entered the Japanese Navy Club to find Chen Lei's whereabouts.

However, before letting Liu Jianren enter the Japanese Navy Club, Captain Luo still routinely opened the leather case that Liu Jianren was carrying, and after a brief and cursory inspection, he did not find any problems, it did contain a suit made of good fabrics, which looked expensive, and this suit was worth his salary for two or three months.

When a police officer led Liu Jianren into the Japanese Navy Club, Captain Luo continued to ask Sun Chengshu who was standing in front of him: "What are you doing?" You can't be a tailor like the one you just had, right? ”

Regarding Captain Luo's question, Sun Chengshu couldn't help but be handsome, waved his hand again and again, and denied it: "No, no, no, officer, you misunderstood." I'm not a tailor, I'm a newspaper reporter from the Shanghai Tang Public Concession, and I've come to cover tonight's grand banquet. ”

After finishing speaking, Sun Chengshu took out the invitation card and handed it to Captain Luo, and shook the suitcase in his hand, explaining: "The suitcase I am carrying in my hand is filled with cameras and other shooting equipment. If you don't believe me, officer, you can check it out. ”

After taking the invitation card from Sun Chengshu's hand, Captain Luo opened it and looked at it twice, the police officer confirmed that it was correct, and asked the two Japanese gendarmerie soldiers standing next to him to review the invitation again.

There was no problem with the invitation presented by police officer Sun Chengshu, but Captain Luo still asked Sun Chengshu to open the leather box he was carrying, and after a cursory look, it was indeed not found anything abnormal except for the camera and ancillary equipment, so he let Sun Chengshu go.

This time, Sun Chengshu was put in alone, and no police officers were sent to follow up.

In less than two minutes, the police officer who had just entered the hall of the Japanese Navy Club with Liu Jianren turned around and returned to the gate of the Japanese Navy Club, and reported to Captain Luo: "Captain, that tailor is not lying, there is indeed a gentleman named Chen Lei inside. Inside, a young Japanese girl in a kimono was taking Mr. Chen Lei and the tailor to the changing room to try on clothes.

"Captain, don't you know, this Mr. Chen Lei is really not simple! He actually spoke fluent Japanese, and when I went in just now, I saw that Mr. Chen Lei was talking and laughing in Japanese with several Japanese bigwigs in Shanghai. Moreover, I also saw that Mr. Chen Lei made a beautiful young Japanese girl in a kimono very happy. I really didn't expect that there would be such a powerful person in Shanghai. ”

When the police officer finished speaking, Captain Luo couldn't help but sweat for himself, if he recklessly blocked the tailor from the door just now, and then offended this Chen Lei, then his little police captain would definitely not have a good life in the future.

After about ten minutes, Liu Jianren, who was a tailor, and Sun Chengshu, who was pretending to be a newspaper reporter, came out of the Japanese Navy Club, and when they were searched by Captain Luo, they did not find anything from their bodies.

As for the reason for leaving, Liu Jianren said that Chen Lei was very satisfied after trying on the clothes, so he left him to drink two glasses of red wine in the hall on the first floor as a thank you.

Sun Chengshu lied that because he came in a hurry, he didn't find out until he entered the Japanese Navy Club that he had two accessories for shooting with his camera at home, and now he rushed home to pick them up, and if he didn't take them, the camera would not be able to shoot normally.

About 10 minutes after Liu Jianren and Sun Chengshu left the Japanese Navy Club, they burst into explosions like lightning and thunder from the northwest corner of the Japanese Navy Headquarters compound, which was only separated by a wall from the Japanese Navy Club......
