Chapter 44: Escape (4)
Maeda Toshitada is actually the chief inspector of the Japanese Concession, after all, he is going to the public concession to do business, if he comes in the name of the army, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction between the British and the Americans, so the Japanese are not stupid, they let an inspector lead the team, that is, on the pretext of handling cases, in order to cover the mouths of the British and Americans.
Xiao Linghu only then understood why Yizhimei recognized Maeda Lizhong, thinking that he had also committed crimes in the Japanese Concession, so he naturally met with the chief detective.
If Maeda Lizhong and Ye Qimin knew that one of the two people who walked in front of them at this time was the Jiangyang thief Yizhimei who they had offered a reward of 500 oceans to capture alive, it is estimated that they would definitely not quarrel here, and they would definitely work together to arrest Yizhimei.
The two men were still fighting each other, and Maeda asked, "That gunman is definitely still in this hotel, because we have surrounded the whole hotel, unless he flies out with wings, or burrows out of the ground like a mouse!" ”
"Yo, that's a coincidence!" Ye Qimin also said: "The killer I want to catch must be in this hotel, but I should be better than you to catch him, he is injured and can't run far!" ”
"Alright, let's search for each other!" Maeda said, "However, if I find the person you want to arrest, I won't hand it over to you!" I'm going to take it back and interrogate it myself! ”
Ye Qimin frowned, thought for a while, and said: "If Maeda-kun says so, then I will also put the words here, if I find the person you want to arrest, I will not hand it over to you, I will also take it away!" ”
"Humph!" Maeda snorted coldly, and led the people to the elevator first, he must have searched from the top of the building.
Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei were walking towards the staircase, hoping to reach the top of the building before the Japanese, after all, they didn't know what happened to Sha Wenhua, so they still had to find it from there.
"You two come here!" Suddenly, Maeda's voice came from behind them.
Yizhimei glanced at Xiao Linghu with a bitter face, no matter how they didn't think that Maeda would stop them, could it be that they were seen by Maeda?
Xiao Linghu turned around first, he was not afraid of Maeda, and he was not as worried as Yizhimei.
Of course, Ichi-mei is afraid of Maeda, after all, he is a chief inspector, who knows, has he seen his own photo? Thinking of this, Yizhimei quickly stuffed a brace into her mouth, and then turned around.
"You two, one will take us to the fifth floor, and the other will take us to the first floor to check door to door!" Maeda ordered Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei, and really regarded them as waiters in this hotel.
It's just that his gaze swept from Xiao Linghu's face to Yizhimei's face, he was stunned for a moment, looked at him carefully, retracted his gaze again, and cast it on Xiao Linghu's face, relatively speaking, he still likes to look at this good-looking face.
Xiao Linghu couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yizhimei, and almost screamed in surprise, his face became a lot wider, completely different from the thin just now, it was difficult for Maeda not to recognize him?
It's just that when Maeda stopped him, Ye Qimin also followed and turned his gaze, after all, he was the one who was on an errand and handled the case, and he recognized Xiao Linghu at a glance, he couldn't help but be startled, and immediately stepped forward and said to Maeda: "I called these two people, you can't take them away, if you want to check the room, then find someone else!" ”
Maeda was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xiao Linghu carefully, feeling that this waiter had nothing special except for his good looks, and at this time, Xiao Linghu also walked over to Ye Qimin with interest.
Yizhimei hurriedly followed behind Xiao Linghu.
When Fore Tian set his eyes on Yizhimei again, he was thoughtful, as if he felt that this person was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
After all, it's not a patrol in this area, relatively speaking, Maeda is still a little weak-minded. The reason why he wanted to go to the Huizhong Hotel to search for him was not only to arrest Mizusha Wenhua, but more importantly, to take Noda Takahiko out, which was also something that Sosuke Ono asked him to do. He knew very well what would happen if Takahiko Noda fell into Ye Qimin's hands.
Therefore, Maeda, who is also a high-flying man in the Japanese Concession on weekdays, faced with Ye Qimin's scramble, he consciously took a step back, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll go find two more entertainers!" And he went away again.
Ye Qimin came to Xiao Linghu's face, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Company Commander Xiao, why did you get in?" ”
Xiao Linghu didn't hide it, and told him: "I have to take my people away!" ”
"You're saying that it was your people who killed so many Japanese on the roof just now?"
Xiao Linghu nodded.
"Hehe, good fight!" It's rare, Ye Qimin praised that after his men were killed and injured by devil killers, he also hated the Japanese to the core.
"Didn't you find that devil's cold gunman?" Xiao Linghu couldn't help but ask. For him, if Noda Takahiko does not die, then I don't know how many Chinese will be killed!
Ye Qimin said: "I went to the top of the building and followed the pool of blood to find the third floor, but after searching room by room, I didn't find the shadow of the devil killer!" ”
Xiao Linghu turned his head to look at Yizhimei, and when he said that Noda might be on the third floor, he said it.
Yizhimei was a little embarrassed, he shrugged his shoulders, after all, he had a brace in his mouth, and if he spoke, he would definitely expose his pretense, so it was better not to speak.
"Let's search again!" Xiao Linghu said: "No matter what, we must find my people before the Japanese!" ”
Ye Qimin thought for a while, turned his head and shouted loudly: "Big head, wool, you two follow those Japanese, if you see him find something, you must tell me as soon as possible!" ”
"Yes!" The two patrols departed in response.
"Let's go straight to the third floor!" Xiao Linghu suggested.
"It's been searched there, there's nothing!"
"Look again, maybe there's anything you haven't discovered?" Xiao Linghu said. In his heart, there was a faint premonition, since Yizhimei said that Noda Takahiko was hiding on the third floor, he would definitely not guess, thieves have thief hearts, and they were born to know where to be dangerous and where to be safe.
Moreover, Xiao Linghu also had a hunch that the reason why Sha Wenhua did not sneak out of the Huizhong Hotel for so long must have gone to settle accounts with Noda Takahiko.
He thought that Sha Wenhua should not be for Zhou Lao Liu's revenge, but for himself. He will not miss this opportunity in vain, and if he doesn't get rid of Noda Takahiko when he is injured, then when Noda recovers in the future, it will be a big problem for him.
Perhaps, if you find Takahiko Noda, then you will also find Sha Wenhua!
