Assassination Suspicion 1

Next Chapter

Wangwangwang, a few piercing dog barks broke the silent night in Shanghai, only to see a few people rudely knock open the door of a house, the owner of the house who was brought out Tang San was obviously a little frightened, a few seconds later, when he saw the uniform on the opposite side, he hurriedly accompanied the smiling face, nodded and said: Taijun, a few bosses, this is?

The first fat man in a police uniform stood up and said: Xiao Tang, you have eaten leopard gall, do you know the Yamamoto Taijun of the Chamber of Commerce. Tang San was stunned for a moment, and then said: Back to the boss, I don't know the little one, how can I know Taijun.

At this time, two Japanese soldiers came out of the house with a woman on their feet.

When Tang San saw that his wife was arrested, he immediately panicked, Tang San: What are you going to do, it has nothing to do with my wife. A Japanese who led the team came over and said in stiff Chinese: Take his wife into the house, you guys will take your turn, until he tells the truth, hearing this, Tang San's expression couldn't help but turn from horror to anger, and he wanted to rush into the house, but his arms were supported by two Japanese soldiers, and he ran forward with only his legs, but he couldn't break free. At this time, there was a woman's hysterical shout in the house, mixed with the sound of her clothes being torn, and suddenly only a man in the room shouted "ah", a few seconds later, suddenly a gunshot rang out, and all the noise in the room returned to a deathly silence, Tang San was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood something, at the moment when everyone was attracted by the gunshot, he broke free from the shackles of the two Japanese soldiers, and rushed straight to the Japanese captain who had just spoken. Tang San only heard a pop, his back was hot, as if he had been burned by fire, he didn't care about the pain, and he didn't have time to think about it, he continued to rush towards the Japanese soldiers, when the voice remembered again, Tang San staggered, his back clothes were wet with blood in two places, and the wet place continued to expand, he instinctively turned around and saw two Japanese soldiers facing him with bayonets, Tang San's eyes glared at these beasts, and he fell unwillingly.

The people in the house came out, a Japanese soldier covered his hands, the wound was still dripping blood, and a Japanese puppet officer and soldier on the side lowered his waist and said, I met this girl today is a mad dog, Taijun, you are disappointed. The Japanese soldier led by him leaned over to look at the two people who had fallen to the ground, and after confirming their deaths, he told the others to close the group.

The noisy footsteps faded away, leaving only the cold bones of the two houses and the crowd of onlookers at the door.

In the evening of the next day, the conference room of the military headquarters.

The atmosphere in front of the rectangular conference table was depressing, and the murder of Yohji Yamamoto, president of the Japan-China Friendship Chamber of Commerce, made the participants seem to dare not even breathe, for fear of making a little noise to attract the attention of the presiding officer of the meeting.

"This month is already the third case of official killings, all of you here are the main responsible persons of Shanghai public security, I am very dissatisfied with what happened recently, please tell me your next countermeasures", the silent atmosphere was first broken by an old Japanese man in a kimono, this person has a silver beard, a small head, if it were not for the majestic figure and the callus left by the index finger because of the long-term trigger pull, looking at this face looks like a scholar, and it is not at all obvious that it is an executioner stained with blood donated by Chinese.

This person is Tsuyoshi Fujita, in his 50s, the highest military commander of the Japanese army in Shanghai.

No one dared to talk for a long time, Fujita just swept the table for a week, and finally his eyes fell on a fat man in a police uniform, about a second or two, the fat man also noticed that Fujita was looking at himself, Fujita nodded at him, and motioned for him to speak.

"Chief Fujita, I'm sorry, it's the incompetence of my subordinates, and the disadvantage of handling things, I disappointed you, after receiving the news of Taijun Yamamoto's accident yesterday, I have asked all the brothers in the police station to go down to search, be sure to arrest Tang San's comrades, please give me some time." The one who spoke was Li Shuhuai, the chief of the Nanjing Police Department who arrested Tang San last night, at this time he was kind and when he arrested Tang San last night, he was like two people, with a figure of 200 pounds and small eyes that were almost invisible when he smiled, but he was also a little cute. Li Shuhuai wiped his sweat and resignedly, for fear that Fujita Gang would take all his anger out on him. Takeda Akio, the captain of the military police, who was sitting next to Fujita Tsuyoshi, glared at Director Li with contempt, and he obviously didn't look down on Li Shuhuai's cowardly character.

"Everyone has been sent down, what is the result now, and have the co-defendants been caught?"

"Back to sir, our police station is sending people to check on Tang San's friends and neighbors one by one, but there are no clues yet."

Fujita Tsuyoshi was obviously dissatisfied with Director Li's answer, and his tone was a little higher: "No, the police station must dig deeper, this kind of case is impossible for a coachman to have no gang, you have to continue to work hard to expand the scope of the search." ”

"Yes, please rest assured, sir, our police department will do its best."

Fujita Gang listened to Li Shuhuai's statement, nodded, and responded gently: I believe you have this ability, but you must know that a person who always disappoints me is not qualified to sit in the position of director. ”

Fujita's last words obviously scared Li Shuhuai a lot, and he hurriedly nodded like garlic, "The subordinates know, the subordinates know." When he finished speaking, he lowered his head and wrote down what Fujita had said in his notebook.

"Captain Jia, what do you think about this matter", Fujita Gang turned his head to Jia Guijin, the captain of the Shanghai Detective Team. This Captain Jia turned out to be a ruffian in Shanghai, 37 years when the Japanese army captured Shanghai, he escaped to hide, slipped back after the war, gathered the local ruffians to take refuge in the Japanese invaders, became a Japanese puppet, and later the Japanese army set up a detective team in Nanjing, and he relied on his own kung fu to become the captain. Lean figure, chicken thief's eyes with a mouthful of yellow buckteeth. In the face of Fujita's question, perhaps Captain Jia has been mixed up in the "grassroots" all year round, resulting in a very low political and ideological consciousness, and he did not realize that the chief was questioning, but regarded Fujita as valuing himself, and regarded it as an opportunity to show himself at the meeting of defense executives. "Taijun rest assured, I guess this is what the underground party did, Tang San's pulling the foreign car is a miscellaneous fish, and when you catch the murderer behind the scenes, you see that I don't kill him, just our detective team, there is no mouth that we can't knock open."

Fujita Tsuyoshi silently listened to the captain's speech, unhappy but didn't seem to be able to find a major problem. I could only take a deep breath, as if I was pressing down the fire. After Captain Jia finished speaking, Fujita couldn't help but joke: It seems that if you catch the real murderer and smash the anti-Japanese elements, then you have to ask Captain Jia.

As soon as Jia Guijin heard that Fujita was going to rely on him to solve the case, a feeling of coming out spontaneously arose, and his expression showed a feeling that let everyone present look at me, Captain Jia, whose status in Taijun is not lower than yours. "Sir, you don't have to be polite to me, just look at it, our detective team has a great role in this realm."

Captain Jia said this, and someone next to him couldn't help laughing, Takeda Akio glanced at the laughing person fiercely with his eagle eyes, and this person immediately took the smile back, lowered his head, and avoided the sharp gaze of the military police captain.

Take advantage of the gap when no one is talking.

A sexy lady with a fair face, big eyes, and a high nose reported to Fujita: "Chief Fujita, the special high school has added secret sentry on the streets to investigate suspicious people, and several suspicious elements have been arrested, and I believe that the effect will be seen in the near future." Everyone present couldn't help but look at her, secretly praising that it was really beautiful. If it weren't for the military uniform on her body and the identity of the head of the special high section, I am afraid that many high-ranking officials would have taken the initiative to offer their courtesy.

"Very good, Hanako Suzuki, I am very satisfied with the speed of your special high class, if there are not enough manpower or any problems, you can report to me directly."

"Hi"

"I think there is something wrong with what Suzuki said," a man who was about 40 years old spoke, with a Chinese face, slightly dark skin, but a pair of clear eyes, and he looked at it as a whole, a resolute and resolute man.

Bai Yunfei, Director of Shanghai Security Department.

Fujita was stunned for a moment, then gave Bai Yunfei a look and motioned for him to continue.

Bai Yunfei said: Yamamoto's murder, whether it was done in Yan'an, or Chongqing, or just the coachman robbing money, we can't make a final conclusion yet, what we have to do now is to first check who Yamamoto Jun has come into contact with, whether there are enemies in ordinary times, and whether there is any connection with the first two official killings, this is what we need to figure out, in addition, how many gangs are on the streets of Nanjing now, and whether these gangs and the Chamber of Commerce usually have personal dealings, I suggest that these should be checked. Now Section Chief Suzuki has given an assumption from the beginning, this is a political assassination, and arresting people on the street, which is not conducive to maintaining the image of the new ** and the stability of law and order. It's better to assume that the coachman was greedy for money, robbed and killed Chairman Yamamoto, and then checked it out in Shunteng, I think this is the best.

Suzuki Hanako's expression was obviously dissatisfied, based on years of intelligence work, she judged that this was basically a political assassination, but there was no real evidence at present, and Bai Yunfei was not unreasonable, so she did not directly refute it on this occasion.

"Yes, yes", Director Bai said reasonably" Director Li Shuhuai immediately answered at this time, because he knew that if Yamamoto's murder was only a street security case, compared to the assassination of the Communist Army or the National Army, the responsibility would be much smaller, and if you still had to investigate the gang, it would not only be your own responsibility, but also bring the detective team and the Operations Department. Bai Yunfei's remarks undoubtedly helped him out of the siege, Director Li blamed himself at this time for not thinking of such a good reason, and on the other hand, he was thinking about the next countermeasure, the matter has already happened, first, how to show how to satisfy the Japanese in the next step of the investigation, and second, try to get rid of the relationship with the police station, in short, he just didn't think about taking the slightest responsibility for Yamamoto's assassination.

Bai Yunfei continued: Director Li, yesterday's eyewitness was at your police station, or was he sent home? Director Li came back to his senses at this time, and said with a straight face: Yesterday Tang San was arrested, our police station cooperated with the gendarmerie to arrest people, and the eyewitnesses were not at the police station, you have to ask Chief Takeda about this.

Takeda Akio glanced at Li Shuhuai and said: Someone came to the gendarmerie to report the case yesterday afternoon, the incident happened suddenly, the witness is temporarily in the gendarmerie, there are still many situations to know, at night our gendarmerie and the police station went to arrest people, but I didn't expect Tang San to die in the process of arrest.

After listening to Takeda's words, Bai Yunfei suddenly felt a little strange, a Chinese person who could not speak Japanese, saw a dead person, did not go to the police station to report the case, how could he find the Japanese military police, so he said: Can you let us try again tomorrow to see if there are any other clues, this Tang San died, and many lines were broken. As soon as he said that the clues were broken, Bai Yunfei was a little complaining that Takeda was reckless and couldn't continue to investigate, Fujita Gang obviously heard this, but he didn't want to quarrel at this meeting, so he didn't take Bai Yunfei's words, but returned to the previous sentence

"Of course you can, just let Director Li go with you, tomorrow morning at the police station to try him, then it will be handled as a public security case first, at present, the neutral country mission and international dignitaries have come to Nanjing as a guest, to see the construction and economic development of the new **, especially in a few days to hold a large welcome ball, so please keep quiet, so as not to cause unnecessary panic."

Bai Yunfei continued: There is an old Chinese saying that it is not too late to make amends for the dead, and I hope that important officials in Nanjing who need protection can be protected in advance to ensure the stability of public order in Shanghai.

With a snap, the people around him were startled, Takeda Akio slammed the table, stared at Bai Yunfei with his eyes, and said: Director Bai, isn't this exposing ourselves, and doing so is a harmony.

Bai Yunfei glanced at Takeda, and said calmly: Captain Takeda, in extraordinary times, with extraordinary methods, this list can be decided by the imperial army, and our Chinese side will not participate, or we can pull out the list, and the people on the list will voluntarily decide whether they need protection, in today's form, stable political situation and economic recovery, the two cannot afford to slip up, Captain Takeda, if this time it is really Yan'an or Chongqing to do it, then the next person to be killed may be you or me, even if you are skilled, but the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to prevent.

After Bai Yunfei finished speaking, there was a lot of discussion at the conference table, some expressed approval, and some said that they were afraid that they were not qualified enough.

"Okay, what Director Bai said makes sense, we will study this matter after the meeting, Fujita Gang took the lead in breaking this discussion, Director Bai, you said it very well, Zhou Fohai didn't recommend the wrong person to me.

Bai Yunfei: Mr. Fujita, you have won the prize.

Fujita just turned his head to the other side and said to a man in his 20s: It has been two months since you came to the Operations Department of the Special High School, Director Xu, I hope you can give full play to your strengths and dig out the so-called underground organization in Nanjing as soon as possible.

This young man is Xu Hongping, who has just come to the Operations Department to take office, and when he heard the commander's instructions to him, he replied calmly: Please rest assured, I will do my best, and I will report to you as soon as I find something new.

This is the first time that Bai Yunfei has directly dealt with Xu Hongping from the Operations Department, this person has a white complexion, a pair of gold-wire glasses, a tall and thin figure, speaks calmly, and is angry, and he can't tell that he is the director of this kind of demonic place.

When the meeting ended, more than a dozen people passed through the door of the venue one after another, Bai Yunfei suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, subconsciously glanced back, and found that Fujita Tsuyoshi and Takeda Akio who were sitting on the chair were looking in their own direction, at this moment Bai Yunfei was not sure if he was looking at himself, so he could only smile slightly, turn around and leave the venue.

As soon as I walked out of the gate of the city hall, I saw Li Shuhuai greet me at the door, "Director Bai, thanks to you today, or I won't be able to pass this today, brother."

Bai Yunfei: Director Li, where are you, let's tell the truth, there is no evidence, and it is better not to make inferences.

Li Shuhuai: Yes, yes, it's still you, you have to be rigorous in our business, isn't it, Brother Bai. When Director Li spoke, the whites of his small eyes could barely be seen, and sometimes it was really difficult to tell whether what he said was true or false. "The whistleblower who will be tried tomorrow, you see what time we start."

Bai Yunfei thought for a while, and returned: At 11 o'clock at noon, I will go to the security office in the morning.

"Well, I'll go to the gendarmerie at 10 o'clock to pick up the witnesses.

Bai Yunfei: Thank you Director Li, and I want you to go to the gendarmerie to give a witness in person.

Li Shuhuai: Brother, this is a dead Japanese, can I not care, not hard, not hard, then we will see you at the police station then, but let you run to me, one day I will visit.

Bai Yunfei smiled faintly, said a few kind words and left the military headquarters.
