Chapter Ninety-Seven: Slaughtering the Ten Brothers, Joining Forces

Patrolling to reap benefits and bend the law for personal gain, although it is very common. But if it is poked out, the Ministry of Industry will also clean it up.

A few years ago, the accounts of a pickpocket group were leaked, which led to the removal of a number of patrols in the Public Concession and the French Concession.

Shen Chen nodded and said, "I don't care if you give money or not, as long as you don't hurt the heavens like Youagen, I will do my best to help you." Of course, you have to do what you can, and poke out the big basket—"

"I won't embarrass Mr. Shen." Xu Huaiyi stepped forward and quickly answered.

Shen Chen smiled, stopped talking about these things, and after eating with Xu Huaiyi, they left separately.

Xu Huaiyi regained the gang, whether it would be as Shen Chen wished, and how valuable it was, Shen Chen didn't know, and he wasn't sure.

Therefore, in the spirit of prudence, Shen Chen kept a distance from Xu Huaiyi, did not participate in the specific affairs of the gang, and helped also had a bottom line and principles.

It's just that Inspector Wang was killed, and the fat man had no backer, and Xu Huaiyi's situation was much better. This was also a great favor for Shen Chen, even though his original intention was not so.

When the lights were first on, Shen Chen drove a car, carrying Chu Jiao and Zhao Youcai to the French Concession, and got off near a big restaurant.

The three of them all went through simple makeup, Chu Jiao carried Shen Chen, like a couple or a couple, and Zhao Youcai was like a follower.

Approaching the big restaurant along the street, Zhang Chengfu greeted him, said hello to Zhao Youcai, and talked like a friend who met by chance.

Shen Chen and Chu Jiao stopped not far away, pretending to look at the things in the window, waiting for Zhang Chengfu.

Soon, Zhang Chengfu and Zhao Youcai separated. Zhao Youcai came to Shen Chen's side and said in a low voice: "The target is seven, and it is in the big elegant room of 208." ”

Zhang Chengfu did a good job of reconnaissance, Shen Chen nodded lightly, and decided to do it without waiting for all the targets to be in place.

There are many dreams at night, and who knows how long it will take to come? Counting Inspector Wang, who has entered the earth for peace, there are already eight, which is a very good chance to kill.

"Go upstairs, kill and retreat." Shen Chen gave a brief order, "Let Lao Zhang watch the wind below, and you will answer in the car." ”

Zhao Youcai hesitated, nodded, turned around and walked away, muttered a few words to Zhang Chengfu, and walked towards the parked car.

Shen Chen and Chu Jiao walked towards the big restaurant, and after entering, they casually said that they were guests in a private room on the second floor, shook off the waiter, and went straight to the second floor.

When they arrived on the second floor, Shen Chen and Chu Jiao went into the bathroom separately and checked the guns and ammunition before coming out to meet in the corridor.

The door of the private room of 208 was closed, and there was a waiter standing at the door.

Shen Chen motioned for Chu Jiao to stay a little farther away, as if they were two people they didn't know. He walked over and said to the waiter, "Inspector Zhao, have they arrived?" ”

The waiter hurriedly bowed down and replied, "Inspector Zhao, they are inside, sir, please come in." ”

"You don't have to wait here, go down and watch, if Inspector Wang arrives, you can catch him." Shen Chen commanded in a majestic and unquestionable tone.

The waiter hesitated slightly, but this was the guest's order, so he had to obey, bowed, and turned to leave.

Shen Chen nodded, and Chu Jiao quickly followed, drawing a pistol at the door, blocking it with the leather bag in his left hand.

Pushing open the somewhat heavy door, ignoring the talk and noise inside, Shen Chen and Chu Jiao stepped in, Shen Chen turned around and closed the door again, and bolted it gently.

"Hey, you're in the wrong room." A very rich-looking man sat in his seat, looked at it with a frown, and said impatiently.

Shen Chen turned around, with a confused expression, and quickly took a look at the situation in the room.

Seven men, fat or thin, tall or short, sat around the table, and some of the food and wine had already been served, apparently waiting while drinking.

Shen Chen and Chu Jiao exchanged glances and nodded in unison.

According to the prior agreement, one of the two is responsible for the left and the other is responsible for the right.

Shen Chen suddenly took out a pistol from his arms and shot at the guy on the far right. This guy was half-sideways, just glanced at Shen Chen and Chu Jiao, and then turned his head and ignored it.

Bullets burst out of this guy's head, and at the same time as he lay on the table, Shen Chen shot bullets at the second guy.

At the same time, Chu Jiao threw down her small leather bag, held the gun in both hands, and also fired at the target.

It is only five or six meters, which can be said to be a close distance, and the two of them move quickly, shoot accurately, and hit the gun.

Shen Chen's movements are faster, his shooting is more accurate, and the bullets are aimed at hitting the head, one at a time, which not only does not waste bullets, but also destroys the target faster.

Chu Jiao usually practiced the rapid shooting method, although it was still inferior to Shen Chen, but it also made eye-popping progress.

"Save-" As soon as the word burst out of his mouth, the bullet opened a bloody hole in the door of the guy's head.

Phew, Bah! Punched in the chest, a guy who had just stood up seemed to have been hit by a heavy punch and fell into the chair behind him.

The massacre lasted only a few seconds, and Shen Chen killed four people, shooting people in the head; Chu Jiao killed three and used up four bullets.

The two quickly put away their guns and sorted them out, Chu Jiao picked up her purse, hid her pistol, and came to the door with Shen Chen.

Opening the door a crack, Shen Chen looked around, but no one noticed. He motioned for Chu Jiao to go out and leave, and reflexively bolted the door again.

Shen Chen walked quickly to the window, opened the window, and looked out. Sure enough, just like Inspector Wang's confession, there was a relatively secluded alley below.

The second floor, this is difficult for Shen Chen.

He jumped out of the window and stood on the terrace. When he was sure that there was no one below, he jumped backwards and landed on the terrace.

By the time he descended to the first floor, his hands had grasped the edge of the terrace, and his body hung in the air. When he let go and fell, he was only about a meter and a half off the ground.

Shen Chen tidied up his clothes, calmly walked out of the alley, and came to the street. Glancing around slightly, he saw that Chu Jiao had already walked out of the restaurant and was walking towards the car in the distance.

The car started, and Shen Chen also appeared on the side of the road in front of him at the right time.

Getting into the car and driving onto the road at a very normal speed, Shen Chen heard Zhao Youcai let out a sigh of relief, and Chu Jiao let out two chuckles from behind.

The most critical evacuation can be regarded as a successful completion, and when the "ten brothers" who have slipped through the net arrive, or the waiter in the restaurant discovers the abnormality and smashes open the locked door, Shen Chen and the others should have entered the public concession, and even completed the separation of people and guns.

Easy? Killed seven people in a row, and retreated, without even being noticed.

When Chu Jiao heard the plan, she had several questions, but Shen Chen patiently explained. Only then did she know why Shen Chen would be so meticulous when interrogating Inspector Wang's confession, and would ask him repeatedly to determine the truth.

At the same time, Shen Chen also admonished her. It is best to personally investigate the environment before acting, as there are always unreliable places in confessions.

And every experience is an improvement for Chu Jiao and Zhao Youcai.

…………

The murder of the restaurant shocked Shanghai the next day.

Seven Chinese arresters in the concession, including the public concession and the French concession, and the youngest rank was also an agent, and all of them were killed in the private room, which was a sensational event anyway.

Just when the newspapers were speculating wildly about why the seven people were killed, an anonymous letter was sent to the "Great Beauty Evening News".

In the evening, the "Da Mei Evening News" was the first to publish the anonymous letter in full.

"Blood Banner Gate"! It's the "Blood Flag Gate" again!

Only then did people know why these seven Chinese arresters were killed, and it turned out that they had been bribed by the Japanese to provide intelligence and convenience for the spies' operations in the concession.

As for the three surviving Hua Zhu, they were also revealed before they died, and they must have been in constant fear.

No, it should be two, and Inspector Wang, who is in the ground, naturally doesn't have to worry about his life safety anymore.

The "Blood Flag Gate" not only said that it was responsible for the assassination, but also asked the three traitors to abandon evil and follow good. Otherwise, the operation will be launched again, and there will be no killing.

It seems that there is a quick response to the matter, and Inspector Wang, one of the "Ten Brothers", has disappeared, as if he has escaped from the disaster incognito.

The other two Hua Zhu have not reacted much for the time being, but the consequences of their identities being exposed can be imagined. Not only did the patrol room have to snub out and beware of these two Japanese lackeys, but the anti-Japanese elements must have also had targets to deal with.

What's more, there is also a notorious "Blood Flag Gate" staring at them. Come to think of it, these two guys won't even be at ease sleeping.

And these, for Shen Chen, don't have to care about it for the time being. Because, Sunday came, and the party that had been prepared for a long time began.

Although he was mentally prepared, Shen Chen stayed in the original house for one night, and when he returned to the rented western-style building, he was still surprised when he opened the door.

He just wanted to have a good time, contact his colleagues, and by the way, get rid of possible suspicions, so he wanted to have a party. Therefore, he really didn't want to arrange it in strict accordance with any specifications.

But the arrangement and furnishings that caught his eye suddenly exceeded his psychological expectations. The decoration is not luxurious, but the colored paper strips are very bright; The furnishings are simple and bright, like a buffet, and there is an open space for dancing and joy......

"This-" Shen Chen scribbled his fingers around, nodded, and looked at Jennifer who appeared with a smile, "It's well arranged......"

"Mr. Shen." Jennifer greeted with a smile and kept saying, "Let's see, if it suits your heart?" Daini and I set up the room, shopped for things, and we're done. Come on, why don't you move the place? ”

This is my home, right? I'm the master, right?

Shen Chen almost had an illusion, smiled bitterly, looked at it casually, and said, "It's quite well arranged, thank you, Miss Jennifer." Oh, and Miss Denny. With that, Shen Chen nodded to Dani who appeared in front of him.

Dani said with a smile: "I was really surprised and excited to be able to participate in the party when I first came to Shanghai, and it was arranged in person. Thank you, Mr. Shen. ”

"Besides—" Dani seemed to hesitate, then continued, "I don't think I'm comfortable with the environment of the inn, but it's good here." I heard that you rented this floor, so I wondered if I could borrow two rooms for me to live in temporarily. ”

"It's for us to stay." Jennifer interjected and added: "It's a bit presumptuous, but I don't think it will cause you any inconvenience, or you need us to pay for the room, which is no problem......

Shen Chen smiled a little helplessly, what a strange creature!

There was not a hint of madness on Jennifer and Dani's faces. On the contrary, Dinny's eyes are perceptive, always looking at herself. Moreover, those eyes seem to have an innate power to attract people, waiting to ask questions at any time.

But this is by no means admiration, love, Jennifer and Danie's initiative and enthusiasm are just the result of their character, and there are also foreigners' habits. Shen Chen confirmed this, and there was no way to refuse.

"I suppose you will have no problem living here if Mr. Everett agrees." Shen Chen moved out the last shield, after all, Jennifer is his daughter, and Dani is Jennifer's American classmate and best friend.

"Of course, this must be done with my father's permission." Jennifer seems to be confident and confident.

In principle, with Shen Chen's permission, Jennifer and Daini's movements were more lively, and they kept talking, introducing Shen Chen to their arrangements for this party and the reasons for various decorations.

"What a carelessness, I forgot to ask, have you had lunch? We're doing it, so come along! "Jennifer had a naïve and clever air that liked to cause trouble at the same time, and it was reflected in her slightly upturned nose and in her squinted sky-blue, very flexible eyes.

I feel out of order again! Shen Chen felt like a somewhat helpless guest, and Jennifer became a hospitable host.

Shen Chen declined Jennifer's invitation, took the supplementary list she and Dani had listed, and went out to buy everything and treat them to dinner.

This dinner was arranged by Shen Chen, and Cao Bingsheng and Xu Huaiyi were invited, not only to introduce the two to each other, but also to hope that the gangs of the two could take care of each other.

The roots of a gang are mainly in the French Concession, and the power of a gang is in the Public Concession. If complementary cooperation can be achieved, of course, it is a very beneficial alliance of strong forces.

Shen Chen came to the hotel and found that Xu Huaiyi had already arrived first. After sitting in the private room for a while and chatting for a while, Cao Bingsheng also came.

I introduced the two of them first, and Shen Chen ordered wine and food again, and the three of them talked while eating.

"I didn't expect Lao Wang to do things for the Japanese, and he was killed by the 'Blood Flag Gate' like this, it was seven, with his courage, I am afraid that he will run away." Cao Bingsheng didn't pity losing Inspector Wang's helper at all, with a contemptuous sneer, "The golden fat man has no backer, how does Boss Xu plan to deal with him?" ”

This is temptation, but also hope. If the two join forces, it can be said that it is very sure to clean up the fat man.

Cao Bingsheng raised this matter first, naturally he also wanted to gain something from the industry, the wharf, or the land.

Xu Huaiyi glanced at Shen Chen, but did not make his own claim, and the meaning of the inquiry was obvious.

Cao Bingsheng immediately noticed this, and said with a smile: "The golden fat man is really not a thing, and he wants to kidnap Mr. Shen's girlfriend." That day, it was for the sake of my thin noodles that Mr. Shen let him go. ”

Shen Chen reacted quickly, and immediately answered: "Inspector Wang has run away, and he still needs to make a big move to clean up the fat man?" How many of his subordinates could risk their lives to avenge him? I think Brother Cao and Boss Xu discussed it, and the little life of the fat man was explained. ”
