Chapter 16 Patrol and Capture of the Concession

As the saying goes, 'early birds get worms', and for many people who open their doors to do business, they like to grab a good chance of opening the door. There are so many commercial houses on the street, why do customers who buy things definitely enter their own stores?

Seeing other trading houses opening up one after another, several local employees of the rice field club seemed a little overwhelmed. The reason is that the trading firm, which usually opens early, seems to be closed all the time today, and no one answered after calling several times.

The owners of several grain and rice shops next to him seemed to be surprised: "What's going on today?" Didn't that little devil open the door quite early on weekdays? Why haven't you opened the door today, so it's hard to close today. ”

"Shopkeeper, they don't open shops, why don't we do more business! Besides, these little devils are doing big deals, and people are not interested in doing small deals like ours! ”

", everyone on the whole street wants to make a big deal. But this big customer, that doesn't depend on relationships. ”

The chatter of the shop next door, and the clerks who stayed outside waiting for the business house to open, naturally couldn't hear it. Originally, a clerk wanted to forcibly knock on the door, but he was worried that he would lose his job because he was annoyed by the boss. The temper of the boss of the trading house is not very good!

Just when everyone thought that the rice field club would not open today, a few people suddenly appeared on the street, but many customers avoided it like a snake and scorpion. Many of the Japanese living in the concession area hated and feared them.

As one of the few shops in the shopping street, it is only natural that most of the people who sell to them are Japanese. There is such a thing as a national plot, not only the people of the Celestial Empire, but the little devils actually abide by this rule.

The Japanese who walked to the door of the rice field trading house frowned a little and said, "What's the matter with Heiichiro?" Won't you open today? ”

After muttering a few words, one of the Japanese pointed to the clerk in front of the door and said, "You Di, boss Di, where are you going?" ”

"Taijun, I don't know! A few of us came early in the morning and called the door, but we couldn't open it! ”

"Na? Keep knocking on the door! ”

Listening to these Japanese people speaking strange official words, the clerk still knocked on the door again. As a result, there was still no movement inside, as if there was no one in the store at all. This situation also surprised several Japanese people.

Wait until one of the Japanese said: "Yesterday we told Heiichiro that we would come to buy goods today, so it stands to reason that he should be in the store at this time, right?" Why don't we take a look from behind? ”

"Yo Breath! Do as you say! ”

Several Japanese people who had made a decision began to go around the alley behind the trading house and came to the back door of the trading house. Just when a little devil stepped forward to push the door, he found that the closed door was easily pushed open.

This situation suddenly made several Japanese people tighten their hearts and said: "Yaga, Heiichiro won't have an accident, right?" ”

When several Japanese and the clerk began to enter the yard through the back door, they found that the door of the warehouse was closed. The door of a room not far from the warehouse was open, and one of the Japanese strode in.

As soon as he entered the house, the bloody smell coming from the house immediately surprised him and said, "Not good! Something happened! ”

On the other hand, the few clerks who followed behind soon saw the bodies of the proprietress and Mr. Account who were dead on the bed and had no clothes on their bodies. This bloody scene made the clerk instantly weak but exclaimed: "Ah! Dead! Dead! ”

Looking at the clerk who was frightened and rushed out of the yard frantically, one of the Japanese instantly scolded fiercely: "You Di, shut up!" ”

In the past, this threat might have worked. But the clerk, who was already frightened, ignored the little devil's threat, pulled several other clerks, ran out like crazy, and opened the door of the store by the way.

As a result, it didn't take long for the death case of the Inada Club to spread throughout the entire commercial street. Watching the excitement is the nature of the people. Many businessmen who were doing business in the shopping street also came over with great interest.

From the mouths of those stupid clerks, most of the vendors on this street knew about the murder that happened in the trading house. But the most exciting thing for the people is how the bookkeeper of the trading house rolls into a bed with the proprietress?

In addition, the proprietors of the comptoirs disappeared. How many hidden secrets are hidden in this?

The shopkeepers and guys of several commercial houses next to them also began to whisper: "The little devil is really not a thing, the guy actually got together with the proprietress." I guess they should have been discovered by the boss and killed them in a fit of anger, right? ”

"This is called the death of peony flowers, and it is also romantic to be a ghost!"

", that's called ghost fighting! Hehe, it's lively on the street again! ”

For these people living in the concession, they hated and feared the little devils. Now it is rare to see the little devils come out of the ocean, and they are naturally happy to talk a little more. In their opinion, the more the little devil dies, the happier he is.

As a well-known commercial street in the concession, the nearby patrols also rushed over when they heard the news. After examining the bodies of the two deceased, it was found that the deceased seemed to have drunk alcohol before going to bed, and there were not many signs of struggle and fighting.

In addition, the bedroom where the boss lives doesn't look too messy. Secondly, a large number of goods stored by the comptoir are missing, and the whereabouts of the boss are also unknown. For a while, the patrolmen felt confused.

The patrol in charge of investigating the case ordered someone to find the business firm and ask: "After the closure yesterday, is there any goods in the warehouse?" ”

"Yes! There are a lot of goods in the warehouse, in addition to grain, there is also a lot of oil and cloth. Originally, someone came to pick up the goods today, but when we came early in the morning, we found that the shopkeeper did not open the door. I waited for a long time before I came in with those Taijun. ”

"Then you were in the store yesterday, did you notice anything abnormal with the shopkeeper?"

"Doesn't seem like much! However, the shopkeeper didn't seem to be in a good mood yesterday, but he usually does this! ”

Naturally, the clerks couldn't ask for any useful information. The patrols immediately launched an investigation into the Japanese expatriates. The result was the same, and the answers of these people were similar to what the clerk said.

In homicide cases involving Japanese nationals, the Concession Patrol House still attaches great importance to it. Especially during this time, the patrols are also worried about the little devils taking advantage of the problem. Several Japanese businessmen who were questioned also protested in due course.

The Chinese patrol who took over the case, complained about receiving such a hot potato, and said very directly: "According to the situation at the scene of the murder, the shopkeeper of this commercial house is very suspicious of committing the crime. Do you know where he went? ”

"Yaga! How do we know this? ”

Although the scolded Chinese patrol wanted to beat up these arrogant little devil businessmen, he still held back his anger and said: "Since you were the first to enter the scene of the murder and are familiar with the boss of this trading house, I need you to record a confession later." ”

Hearing such words, these little devil businessmen were naturally unhappy. The problem is that just as they were about to go berserk, several foreigners also walked in. Along with these foreigners were the Japanese governors of the concession.

In order to manage the public concession well, the countries elected several directors to be responsible for mediating the affairs of the concession. It stands to reason that the case of just a few expatriates should not be enough to alarm the national councillors. But for the directors who rushed in, he knew very well that this case was not simple.

The reason is that the Inada Club is an intelligence station set up in the concession area of the Special High Division, and the three Japanese, including the boss, are all intelligence officers of the Special High Division. One intelligence agent had been missing, and now there were three people left in trouble.

Of course, the reason why the Japanese directors rushed to hear the news was more worried that the intelligence station was in trouble. If they are arrested by the concession patrol and find evidence that this trading house is an espionage station, I am afraid that they will also need to give an explanation to other countries.

The interests of the public concession belong to the countries related to the concession, and are not limited to the little devils. In the territory jointly managed by everyone, setting up such an espionage station, the directors of other countries will naturally feel dissatisfied, and feel that the little devils are spying on their secrets and intelligence.

After seeing the scene, it was found that these Chinese patrols did not discover the real secrets of the firm, and the directors also breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately expressed the hope that the concession patrol could catch the murderer as soon as possible and give the deceased a comfort.

The foreign director, who didn't want to be too stiff with the little devil, immediately instructed: "There is such a serious case in the commercial street, and the patrol house must send more people to investigate the case." Once a suspect is found, immediately report it for arrest! ”

The foreigner directors who have listened to the patrol report feel more that this is a case of hatred because of love. The main suspect is the missing shopkeeper. Find the missing shopkeeper and believe that the case will be revealed.

It's a pity that the patrol wants to find the real culprit, but I'm afraid it's impossible. When encountering professionals like Hu Biao, it is undoubtedly wishful thinking to investigate the case only with their ability to investigate the case!

Even these little devils who patrolled and rushed to hear the news did not expect that in the crowd of onlookers, the 'real murderer' who created this assassination incident was standing outside at the moment and planning to follow the vine and continue to look for the target!
