Chapter 82: Invite Li Ling
Shi Gongshu has been in Qingdao for a long time, and he knows the gang characters best. Send someone to cause trouble today, and tomorrow someone will send a lot of silver dollars to flatter and bribe you. He knows his power and influence. After Tan Ji Casino sent someone to catch the gamble, he wanted to knock Li Ling hard. Two days have passed, five days have passed, but I heard that Tan Kee Casino is closed, but I can't wait for people who come to give gifts. When he was puzzled, the housekeeper of his mansion came to report: Shi Gongzhu's only only son suddenly disappeared at home.
As the chief inspector of the National Police Department, Shi Gongzhu has always solved problems for others, but he never imagined that his own son was kidnapped. Lay down eyeliner and searched the whole city, but there was not a trace of clues. I didn't care about my identity and face, and I notified the gang characters to investigate, but there was no news. Now Shi Gong was a little flustered, his Shi Mansion was heavily guarded, but he could rob people unknowingly in front of dozens of thugs and servants, even if the thief swallow Li San couldn't do it, he couldn't figure out which side of the immortal was if he wanted to break his head.
He also guessed that it was Li Ling and his gang, but he didn't even believe it. Although Li Ling and the others have some strength, they are new to the city, and it is impossible for them to have this ability. Despite this, Shi Gongzhu also personally brought people to check.
The inner courtyard of Hongfu Teahouse, as Li Ling's shelter, has been dealing with big and small things here. Seeing the arrival of a large number of military and police personnel, Li Ling said with a smile: "The chief inspector came to the small teahouse so leisurely today, it is really brilliant. Today, I will do my best to be a landlord and ask the chief inspector to have a good cup of tea and dinner. ”
Shi Gong didn't have this idle time to drink tea, he didn't look down on Li Ling and the others at all, and he didn't even bother to say basic greetings, and said, "Someone has been kidnapped recently, and I suspect that the hostages are hiding in your place." Come on, search for me. ”
Li Ling's eyes flashed, and he said, "If you come to my teahouse to drink tea, I am very welcome." If someone comes here to make trouble, the king of heaven can only come in and don't want to go out. ”
Shi Gong, who has always called for wind and rain, has never been so threatened. He just came here to search with the mentality of just in case, but Li Ling's attitude made him almost sure that his precious son was in Li Ling's hands. Shi Gong was furious and shouted: "Little Red Guy is still lawless, do you know whose territory is here?" When Lao Tzu broke into the dock here, you were still breastfeeding! Are you all stunned? Search for me. ”
There were more than 50 policemen from the police department who followed Shi Gong in, and when they heard the order of the inspector general, they were about to start an operation, only to hear a commotion around them, and hundreds of figures were ambushed on the walls on both sides, all of them were holding guns and ready to shoot, and there were even a few light machine guns aimed at this area, and some people were even holding grenades, ready to pull the strings and throw them.
The policemen were so frightened that they didn't dare to make the slightest move. Shi Gongzhu's face was even more pale, no matter what, he didn't believe that the weapons in the hands of these people were so sophisticated, and pointed at Li Ling and said in a trembling voice: "You... You actually resisted law enforcement, and the crime was heinous, the crime was heinous. ”
Li Ling sneered and said, "The chief inspector slandered me for kidnapping hostages, is there any evidence to prove it?" If not, if you trespass into people's houses, you will be shot and killed indiscriminately, and whoever dares to take a step forward will be killed. ”
"You..."Shi Gong surged into his heart with a burst of blood, as the chief inspector, he could go wherever he wanted in Qingdao, when he had suffered this kind of wretched gas, but he couldn't beat it, he only hated that there were too few people brought, and he was about to leave two cruel words and go back to bring people to find a place again, only to see Li Ling smile and say: "You can eat whatever you want, you can't say anything casually." Kidnapping people is immoral, and the Inspector General should not be left on my head. Of course, I also want to prove my innocence, ask the inspector general to accept the gun, and go to the house to check it casually by himself, and you patrol policemen are waiting here! ”
"No, let's go," Shi Gong angrily led people away. Since Li Ling dared to let himself in, even if his son was in his hands, he would definitely have been hidden. But this evil breath can't be swallowed no matter what, it's just that his son's life is at stake, and when this matter is resolved, he will clean up Li Ling and the others.
Li Ling sneered and watched them leave, so he said to the side, "Are the kidnappers okay?" ”
A cold man next to him said: "Brother Huiling, that person is in the inner room, tied up, and waiting to be dropped." ”
"Then tie it here first, and it may come in handy in two days." Li Ling looked at this big man with satisfaction. This person's name is Zhu Jiang, he is unrestrained and smiling, has a resolute temperament, and is mainly skilled, and among the forty-six personnel brought by the Black Second Tower, he can definitely rank in the top three. After the recommendation of the Black Second Tower, let this person sneak into Shi Gongzhu's mansion and quietly kidnap Shi Gongzhu's only son.
If Shi Gongzhu learned that his son was in the Hongfu Teahouse, he would definitely be able to spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot. He was about to go back and arrange manpower again, when he saw a subordinate come down to report, and Sui Ganchen asked Shi Gongzhu to rush to the Sui Mansion immediately to accompany the guests.
Accompaniment? Shi Gong is now anxious like an ant on a hot pot, where is he in the mood to drink and be a guest. Sui Ganchen, the boss of the "Eight Tiger Brothers" in Qingdao, generally does not notify everyone if there is no major matter. It's okay, after I go, I can also sum it up with a few brothers.
At that time, the "Eight Tiger Brothers" of the Qingdao Youth Gang were Sui Ganchen, a spy of the Eighth Army, An Ganchen, who was also a spy, Zhang Jingqi, a counselor of the Eighth Army, Liang Huanzhang, a comprador of the British Tobacco Company, Shi Gongzhu, chief inspector of the Qingdao Police Department, and businessmen Huang Shaoxian, Liu Huanwu, and Wang Zilu.
Sui Ganchen served as a spy for the Eighth Army in his early years, and later the Eighth Army was defeated by the Northern Expeditionary Army in Shanghai, so he was idle at home. In Qingdao's "Eight Tiger Brothers", because of his flexible brain and wide range of contacts, from high-ranking officials and nobles to three religions and nine streams, there is no relationship that he can't find. was also elected by the remaining seven people to be the first position.
In the past two days, I don't know what the summit is, and a large number of martial arts figures have come to Qingdao. Sui Ganchen had met Li Jinglin a few times in his early years, and now that Li Jinglin has come to Qingdao, of course he wants to do his best to flatter the landlord. Li Jinglin used to be the commander-in-chief of the Zhilu Coalition Army, and he was not at all a small spy under Bi Shucheng's Eighth Army under Zhang Zongchang of the Zhilu Coalition Army, but because he was a local snake, Li Jinglin was also happy to sell him face, so he agreed to the dinner he set up.
Although Li Jinglin is in the wilderness, his influence is still huge, and more importantly, he is a figure of the "big" generation of the Green Gang. After receiving the notice that Li Jinglin agreed to go to the banquet, Sui Ganchen was overjoyed and hurriedly sent someone to call Shi Gongzhu and other other brothers and Qingdao's leading figures to accompany him.
Along with Li Jinglin was Ma Liang from Jinan. The two are both Shimono officers, and they are both masters in the martial arts world, and they have an excellent relationship. Although Ma Liang was not a member of the gang, his potential power in Shandong Province was overwhelming, and he was friendly with the Japanese, so he also came to the banquet today, which flattered Sui Ganchen.
As soon as the two arrived in the car, they felt a thousand glorifications. A large group of people at the entrance of the mansion lined up to welcome under the leadership of Sui Ganchen, and when they arrived in the inner room of the mansion, there were beautiful beauties standing on both sides to form a welcoming procession. Even if Li Jinglin and Ma Liang have seen a big scene, they can't help but look sideways.
After a polite introduction, the guest and host walked to the main seat. Sui Ganchen was the host, and the banquet was full of carefully selected delicacies. The two didn't have much appetite, so they asked about the situation in Qingdao.
In addition to the other seven brothers of Sui Ganchen, there were also Song Yuting, president of the Chamber of Commerce, Liu Zishan, the richest man in Qingdao, and Zhang Xun, general manager of Minghua Bank.
Sui Ganchen has been trembling and worried, and said: "In recent days, many martial arts people have come to Qingdao, these people have Taoist priests, monks, nuns, and even some Japanese ronin with katana swords, and they don't know what big things are going to happen. ”
Li Jinglin was silent, but Ma Liang smiled vaguely: "Recently, a martial arts conference will be held, and Qingdao local talents and souls will come here to join in the fun!" ”
Sui Ganchen understood that it was definitely not a lively martial arts conference, and since people didn't say it, it was not good to ask carefully.
And Shi Gongzhu, who had been silent, moved when he heard this, hugged his fists and said: "Two days ago, when my only son was guarded by dozens of bodyguards at home, he disappeared unconsciously, I don't know if the two seniors know who is so powerful, if there are clues, I will also send a big gift to thank you." ”
Li Jinglin glanced at him and said, "There are a lot of capable people in the world, and the heroes of the three mountains and five mountains have gathered here recently, but they generally don't kidnap for money." It also depends on what powerful characters you have offended. ”
Shi Gong searched his intestines and stomach carefully, and couldn't think of a reason, so he said: "Just a few days ago, I sent someone to Tan Ji Casino to catch gambling, it is a group of characters from Jinan, and the leader is called Li Ling." ”
"Li Ling?" Li Jinglin and Ma Liang exclaimed in unison.
The two glanced at each other and asked each other in unison: "Do you know Li Ling?" Then they both laughed.
Li Jinglin said with a smile: "This kid is from Hongmen, and he once escorted a batch of arms and was intercepted by me, I admired his toughness, so I let him go, but I didn't expect him to come to Qingdao." ”
"I remember, Li Ling once mentioned to me that I didn't go through a few tricks in your hands," Ma Liang also smiled: "I accepted him as a righteous son in Jinan, but I didn't expect this kid to cause trouble, and actually chased the Japanese who came to my house to Tai'an and killed them." ”
Li Jinglin said with some surprise: "Dare to kill the Japanese, it's not a small courage!" I haven't seen him for a long time, and I still have an appointment with him to come back in a few years, I don't know if he has improved in kung fu. ”
As the head snake of the land, Sui Ganchen really didn't expect that someone in Qingdao had such a deep relationship with these two big people, so he immediately ordered someone to bring an invitation to invite Li Ling to come to the banquet.
