In any case, Shen Chen's meeting with Cao Bingsheng and Xu Huaiyi was still very rewarding.

Intelligence is one thing, but also its own security. The brothers under Xu Huaiyi, although they are not good at it, can be eyes and ears, and they can still report the news.

After lunch, Shen Chen said goodbye to the two of them and went to their own business.

In the afternoon, Shen Chen did not go out, but stayed in the patrol room to check the information and intelligence. There are those given by Cao Bingsheng, and there are those recently collected by the patrol room.

Mason also sent Shen Chen the minutes of the secret meeting of the police department, but reminded him not to copy them, and after reading them, he immediately sent them back to his office, and he had to send them back to the police department before leaving work.

In the minutes of this meeting, Shen Chen saw that the Ministry of Industry Bureau would form an armed patrol team and take some measures to limit the growing number of terrorist activities in No. 76.

For No. 76, which was sheltered by the Japanese, the Ministry of Industry was actually very helpless. The direct use of force is not possible, and only a roundabout strategy can be adopted.

The so-called roundabout strategy is to surround from a distance, do your best to limit the movement of No. 76, and engage in a protracted contest.

Among them, Shen Chen believes that several measures are more feasible, including strict interrogation of people entering and exiting No. 76 at cross-border road intersections, strengthening patrols by armed patrol teams, and investigating and removing bribed patrols.

Although these measures are not direct, they do put pressure on 76, making it more burdensome and affecting operations.

Of course, these measures will be effective after they are implemented, and they are still only superficial.

During this period, some reporters went to the patrol room to interview, but without exception they were all blocked by the patrol, only saying that Shen Chen was not there and did not accept the interview.

Shen Chen didn't get off work on time, but greeted Mason, and left early when there was no one in front of the door on the pretext of avoiding reporters.

After driving around and not finding the tracking, Shen Chen made a phone call on the side of the road and asked Chu Jiao and Zhao Youcai to meet.

This is the first time the three have met since the last operation.

Shen Chen and Zhao Youcai, the two big men, are still reserved and introverted, but Chu Jiao is extremely happy.

Such a big operation, which not only dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, but also did not damage itself, is also a thing worth celebrating.

Chu Jiao actually took out a bottle of high-grade red wine, poured a glass by herself, patted Shen Chen's shoulder hard, and teased: "I've been hiding for several days, and as soon as I came out, it was earth-shattering." How did the three gunmen, or the ambush, all be killed? ”

"What kind of wine are you drinking?" Shen Chen smiled: "Let's hurry up, don't wait for He Xiaoyan and Yangniu to come back from work and bump into each other." ”

"Talking while drinking, I can't delay time." Chu Jiao raised her wine glass absently.

Shen Chen and Zhao Youcai raised their glasses helplessly, and after clinking glasses gently, they drank slowly.

"Recently, we have to keep a low profile, and the patrol room has strengthened its vigilance to prepare for possible riots during the Double Tenth Festival." Shen Chen turned his wine glass and said slowly: "However, being low-key doesn't mean doing nothing. I have some information here, and you should grasp it carefully. ”

Chu Jiao drank all the wine in one gulp, took the information handed over by Shen Chen, and looked at it. While watching, he said: "Ma Mingyu also gave me some information, and the two of them add up, and it is even more complete." ”

Zhao Youcai nodded, went to the basement to get the information, and handed it to Shen Chen.

After combining the two, Shen Chen felt that it was more complete, especially the information of personnel No. 76, he almost never forgot it and remembered it firmly in his mind.

"With this information, if the 76th dares to enter the concession, let's see one and kill the other." Chu Jiao didn't have such a good memory, so she stopped reading and poured herself another glass of wine.

Shen Chen shook his head and said, "It's not about seeing one and killing the other, but having a choice." For example, if you recognize a guy, don't kill him yet, try to follow him and see what other accomplices he has. ”

"Gather and kill together?" Chu Jiao's word "kill" did not leave his mouth, which made Shen Chen roll his eyes.

"Not all killed, but one or two." Shen Chen took a sip of wine and explained, "Leave the guy you think is easy to recognize, and don't let him know that he has been exposed." The next time he comes, he can pull out other villains from him. Isn't it trouble that you kill everyone and know less and less? ”

Chu Jiao thought about it, nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "You are really bad enough." Leave a good one, as long as he participates in the operation in the concession, he can be alert when he sees him. Well, well, that's a good trick. ”

"So, I will give Xu Huaiyi a copy of these people's photos, and let his subordinates help to investigate and report to me." Shen Chen raised his glass and said with a smile: "The news is true, I will give money to make them more motivated." ”

Chu Jiao nodded again and again and said, "As long as they can find out the information, it is worth spending some money." ”

Shen Chen drank all the wine in the cup, motioned for Chu Jiao to pour it again, and continued: "So, we have to go to the French Concession to do two votes." With money to make the devil grind, and with abundant funds, we don't need to do many things. ”

"Okay." Chu Jiao nodded in agreement without thinking about it, I don't know if it was the effect of alcohol, or if she was more excited when she heard the news, and her face flushed with a hint of redness.

Shen Chen pressed his hand downward and said, "Don't drink it, your face is red." I have already set a target, and I will inform Zhang Chengfu to reconnoiter it in advance. Then, let's take advantage of the fact that the French Concession has not yet strengthened its vigilance and seize the time to do it. ”

Chu Jiao glanced at Shen Chen, looked at the wine glass, drank half of the glass in one gulp, put the wine glass down, and said, "What is this bit of wine, look down on me." ”

"Hehe, Miss Chu, go home and wait to be beaten!" Shen Chen laughed a little gloatingly, raised his glass and shook it, drank it unhurriedly, and sighed, "A bottle of red wine is just enough, it's not enough for me to stuff my teeth!" ”

Chu Jiao glared at Shen Chen, blinked her eyes, and suddenly smiled: "You are quite annoying!" But I'm not afraid, I can go somewhere else to play and go home without the smell of alcohol in my mouth. Hey. ”

"Hehe, then let's go play!" Shen Chen drank the wine in the cup, got up and said, "Let's disperse early, who knows when the two eldest ladies will come back?" If you run into it, you may be cranky and inquiring, and you will have a headache. ”

Chu Jiao thought of He Xiaoyan, and also felt that it was better to leave early, so she hurriedly put away the information and beckoned Zhao Youcai to leave together.

Shen Chen waited for a while before going out and driving.

Without a refrigerator or freezer, Shen Chen, a lazy man, would not be able to store some convenience food. Actually, there weren't many convenience foods at that time.

Sometimes he didn't come back until late, and Shen Chen also felt hungry, but he was too lazy to cook, so he just ate a few biscuits.

Moreover, he was a little tired of eating outside, He Xiaoyan and Dani sometimes cooked some meals and beckoned Shen Chen to come to eat, and he also ate with relish.

So, Shen Chen went out and bought some biscuits, bread, canned food, and sausages for supper; I bought some rice noodles, eggs, bacon and other ingredients, and prepared them for He Xiaoyan and Dani to cook.

Not long after Shen Chen went out, Dani came back from work and went back to her room to rest. After a while, He Xiaoyan also came back from work and walked to the gate, only to find a woman wandering around.

Since the incident with Liu Nina, He Xiaoyan has been hit, and she has unconsciously raised her vigilance, and it is no longer as simple as before.

In addition, Shen Chen was attacked twice, and she was also reminded. Therefore, seeing the stranger dangling in front of the door, He Xiaoyan frowned, and when she saw that there were pedestrians around, she stepped forward and asked, "What are you looking at here?" ”

The seemingly strange woman looked back at He Xiaoyan, was stunned for a moment, and looked at it carefully.

He Xiaoyan also felt that this woman seemed to be a little familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it for a while, so she raised her voice again and said, "Who are you looking for?" If you're okay, please leave immediately. ”

"You, you" The woman stretched out her finger and pointed, thinking hard, and suddenly her face stretched out, and she shouted: "Ha, I remember, you are Gillian's classmate." ”

He Xiaoyan didn't think about it yet, but when she heard her mention Chu Jiao, her attitude softened, and she asked suspiciously: "I, I haven't remembered it yet." You, who are you? ”

Xie Yuehua smiled and said, "I'm Gillian's cousin, we met outside the lonely military camp." ”

After this reminder, He Xiaoyan remembered it, but it was just a one-sided understanding, she only cared about talking to Chu Jiao at that time, and she really didn't look at Xie Yuehua carefully.

"I remember, you and Gillian were together." He Xiaoyan smiled embarrassedly and said, "Then I should also call your cousin." I'm so sorry, look at my memory. ”

Xie Yuehua said with a smile: "I just met in a hurry, and even I almost didn't remember it!" By the way, you" she pointed to the bungalow and asked suspiciously, "where do you live?" ”

He Xiaoyan nodded and said, "I'm renting here for the time being." Cousin, where are you looking for someone? ”

"Don't call me cousin, just call me by my name!" Xie Yuehua stretched out her hand and introduced herself: "My name is Xie Yuehua, a reporter from a certain newspaper. ”

He Xiaoyan stretched out her hand and shook it, and said, "My name is He Xiaoyan, and I am now working in the working women's association. ”

"Look, now it's a real acquaintance." Xie Yuehua smiled happily, paused, and said, "I want to interview Inspector Shen, does he live here?" ”

He Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said, "Yes, he also rents here." However, he didn't come back, and the car was not in the yard. ”

"Then you should know each other well, right?" Xie Yuehua didn't wait for He Xiaoyan to answer, so she continued: "Can you help me make a recommendation?" I've always wanted to interview him, but I've never been able to do it. ”

He Xiaoyan was not easy to refuse, but it was not easy to accept, and said with some sneer: "I don't know him well, I don't know when he will come back, and sometimes he doesn't come back at night to ......live."

Xie Yuehua was very persistent, quite indomitable in selling insurance in later generations, and said with a smile: "I don't want you to be embarrassed, it's okay to invite me to come in and sit, right?" When it comes to dinner, if he doesn't come back, I'll leave; If he comes back and doesn't give an interview, I won't force it. How about doing this little favor, did you just call me cousin? ”

He Xiaoyan smiled bitterly and nodded, it was really useless, she opened the door, stretched out her hand to invite, and teased: "Cousin, please come in." ”

Xie Yuehua smiled, was not polite, and walked in.

"What has Gillian been up to lately?" He Xiaoyan asked casually as she walked, "I haven't seen her for a long time." ”

Xie Yuehua's face darkened for a moment, but then returned to normal and said, "Me too." She's busy, I'm busy, this cousin is really unqualified! ”

He Xiaoyan didn't think it was strange and stepped up the stairs.

When he walked to the middle, there was a loud creaking sound from a staircase, and Xie Yuehua was worried that it would not be strong, so he slowed down.

He Xiaoyan was accustomed to it, and said in her mouth: "It doesn't matter, it's very strong, but there is a problem with the wood, and no one is too lazy to repair it." ”

On the second floor, He Xiaoyan pointed to the opposite room and said, "That is the room rented by Inspector Shen, and this is the room rented by me and Dani." Speaking of which, Inspector Shen is a second landlord, and the entire second floor was originally rented by him. ”

Xie Yuehua nodded and said, "With Inspector Shen living here, I don't know if it's safe or dangerous for you." ”

He Xiaoyan opened the door of her room, invited Xie Yuehua in, and said, "Inspector Shen also hopes that we can consider moving out, but I don't want to be a coward." Dinny also said that she lived very well, and did not believe that any thugs would dare to do anything to foreigners. ”

"It used to be like this, but now, those badass thugs are getting more and more unscrupulous." Xie Yuehua seemed to empathize and sighed.

He Xiaoyan invited Xie Yuehua to sit down, poured her a glass of water with a thermos, and said, "By the way, cousin, the newspaper you just mentioned, I seem to have heard of it, the one that was dropped twice, right?" ”

"yes!" Xie Yuehua nodded and said, "A small newspaper, the spies don't let it go. Speaking of which, Inspector Shen and I also met because of the newspaper. At that time, he was still a small patrolman, and he was invited to work to protect the newspaper. ”

"Little patrol, on duty?" He Xiaoyan couldn't help laughing and said, "It's less than ten yuan a day, it's really interesting to think about." ”

"Although the salary is not high, Inspector Shen is still conscientious, squatting at night, and beating the rioters to death." Xie Yuehua said: "In fact, from that time on, I should have seen that he was not a simple character. ”

He Xiaoyan sat down and asked with interest, "Then what was he like when he was a little patrolman, cousin, tell me." Anyway, if you have time, just make small talk. ”

Xie Yuehua nodded with a smile and said, "Don't look at him as a small patrol at the time, and his temper is quite stinky. When I said the wrong thing, he immediately grabbed the white, and I choked so badly. Later, I thought that he must have offended someone in the patrol room, or he would not have been sent to the newspaper. Do you think, is it dangerous for the newspaper that was dropped to be bombed? ”

"That's right." He Xiaoyan thought so and nodded yes.

"However, at that time, he was very studious, reading newspapers, reading books, and sitting in the corner of the newspaper building." Xie Yuehua continued: "Moreover, he is very smart and knows how to avoid danger as much as possible. Of course, he was also heroic when it came to encountering the thugs of the Zodiac. One man, killed and wounded several bad guys. ”

"Now he's even better." He Xiaoyan said: "A spy with a gun, he also dares to shoot a few by himself." The badass ambushed him twice, no, three times. But they were all killed and wounded, but he had nothing to do, and he was not afraid at all. ”

"So, I'm weird!" Xie Yuehua then said: "Who is the behind-the-scenes commander of those spies and gunmen, you don't have to think about it. But why is he not afraid, why is he merciless? ”
