In the makeshift conference room at the Yabuli railway station, more than 20 high-ranking Manchukuo police officials and officers of Japan's special high school division sat down. There were also a few people in suits.

Sitting in the middle was Hiroshi Inoue, deputy director of the Manchukuo Garrison. In the Manchukuo government departments, most of the main positions are Manchukuo, while the deputy positions are basically Japanese. It is often the Japanese who hold the real power.

Inoue Hiroshi is the real boss of the Security Agency. He rushed from Xinjing to Yabuli.

Standing in front of the report was Yamagata Mozuma, a criminal investigation expert from the Special High School.

"One of the fifteen men in the tail carriage of the train was shot and died, and the other fourteen died as a result of the explosion." Yamagata said.

He took a paper bag and poured its contents onto the table. Things landed on the table with a clanging sound. It turned out to be a few pieces of black iron.

"That's what we gathered in the field. After reduction, it can be determined that it is a grenade. And I'm sure it's not a grenade that the Japanese army is equipped with. Much like a grenade used by the Soviet army. The explosion was powerful. Yamagata said.

"The carriage should be closed. How did the grenade get into the compartment? And what shot was the killed gendarme? Inoue asked.

"How the grenade got into the compartment is unclear for the time being. The most likely is through the window. But the windows were all shattered, so it's not certain yet. The deceased gendarme was killed by a German Sauer M1913 pistol. This pistol is called the Snake brand in the Northeast. After investigation, it was certainly shot in through the window of the car and hit the deceased in the head. Yamagata replied.

Yamagata begged for the horse to pick up two larger paper bags. He opened the paper packets, revealing two pistols each.

The four pistols had been burned by the fire, and the roasted blue on them had disappeared. The entire body of the gun reflects the off-white color.

"These are the four pistols found in the locomotive. Two are Southern Type 14 pistols, and the other two are Sauer M1913. I'm sure these two Sauer M1913s are pistols that killed the gendarmes. Yamagata said.

"Have you identified the people in the locomotive?" Inoue asked.

"There was a person who died outside the locomotive, and the identity has been determined. He was the co-driver on the train. The other two people can also be roughly determined based on the height of the deceased provided by the deceased's family. Only the identities of the last two people cannot be determined. Yamagata replied.

"One of them was only about one meter six tall. Two Sauer M1913s were found by his side. Yamagata added.

Jiang Hongkui, the chief of the Mudanjiang Police Department, listened attentively to the report of Yamagata Qiuma, which was translated by the translator next to him. When he heard this, he blurted out, "Why are the robbers so short?" After saying that, he knew that he had lost his words. Because among the Japanese present, there are a few who are about 1.6 meters tall.

Inoue didn't seem to hear anything, and he then asked, "How did the people on the locomotive die?" ”

"Of the five people, the co-driver died outside the car, and his body was intact. He was shot in the face and died. Three others were also thought to have been shot to death. There was a bullet hole in the head of a man who was only one meter six. After comparing the bullet holes, it should have been hit by the Southern Type 14 pistol. The other two had bullet abrasions on their ribs. But the remaining unidentified deceased has no signs of injury on the skeleton, and the cause of death is unknown. Yamagata said.

"Identification based on height alone? What if the height is about the same? Jiang Hongkui finally couldn't help asking.

A smile appeared on Yamagata Qiuma's face, "There are many details on the scene that can tell the story. Although they were all charred, only bones remained. Even the bones are burned and fragile. But the location speaks for itself. After investigation, the fire started from the boiler room. There were two people in the boiler room, one was only one meter six tall, and another person. It's a person whose bones can't be seen. I think the person who set the fire didn't want people to recognize these two people before they set the fire to it. ”

"Didn't the person who set the fire leave any traces?" Inoue asked.

"Yes, that's the only one." Yamagata said as he picked up a large envelope and poured a bunch of things onto the table.

"Look, these are actually bullets. But now it's all like this. Some are flat, and some are simply broken. This is to increase the lethality, the owner of the gun deliberately grinds off the copper clad on the bullet head, leaving only the lead core. When the lead core enters the body, it either becomes flat or shattered. According to the bullet casings left at the scene, it was shot by the American-made M1911, and the Northeast people called it the big-eyed picker. The caliber is eleven millimeters, and the lethality is very large. Yamagata replied.

"These things were mostly found on eleven railway policemen. And the guns are deadly. Yamagata said.

"He should be the one who took the money. The question is how to find this person. The police have set up checkpoints on the roads on all sides. However, this does not guarantee airtightness. He still has a loophole to exploit. Inoue said.

"I'd like to give you a little advice." Toyo Takushoku Co., Ltd.'s representative Hidaka Toshitsu thought for a moment and continued: "Our money was withdrawn from the Bank of North Korea. A quarter of all new money never flows through. The number on the banknote is traceable. He said with confidence.

"It's obviously black on the inside, so it must be done by the beard. Turn this beard up for hundreds of miles, and I don't believe I can't find it. Mudanjiang Police Chief Jiang Hongkui said.

"Someone must have leaked the news. This is also the case for you. Toyo Takushoku Co., Ltd., the Pioneer Group, the Bank of North Korea and the railroad were all to be checked. Even the Ministry of Economy of Manchukuo. Inoue said with a deep groan.

"The pioneers were all Japanese, and they were loyal to the Japanese Empire! It's impossible to leak the news! Saburo Arai of the pioneer group said.

"Although there are some Koreans in Toyo Takushoku, they are also loyal to the Japanese Empire." Hidaka Ritsu's tone was extremely dissatisfied.

"As long as it is a person who has been exposed to this news, no matter who he is, he will be investigated, no exceptions!" Inoue said angrily.

Inoue Hiroshi turned his head again and asked Jiang Hongkui, "According to your understanding, are there still bandits around here?" ”

"It turns out that there are a large number of bandits on the top of the Quartet dozens of miles south from here. But they have long gone their separate ways. However, I will arrange for people to go down to the towns and villages to conduct secret investigations, and those who suddenly get rich buy houses and land. And the new banknotes are all bad. Those bags are not idle to inquire about. If you really can't do it, you will be rewarded, and you will definitely find clues. Jiang Hongkui said confidently.

Inoue nodded, "Let's go back and start moving." The tracing of the trace, the self-examination of the self-examination. These more than 2 million are digging three feet into the ground to find out! Inoue said resolutely.
