At half past five o'clock, the news conference ended, and more than 20 leading figures from various military and political departments in Shanghai walked out of the large conference room of the main building surrounded Yamashita Fengwen, and arranged according to the size of their official ranks in front of the steps. Zhang Zhan, who had just rushed back from Nanjing, came directly to the Peace Hotel, and had not yet found a chance to report to Ni Xin.

The photojournalists found a good angle and took pictures one after another. The reporter surnamed Liang of "Declaration" first took two photos from the front, and then turned back to the side to continue shooting. He had the best camera equipment in his hands, two flashes and two stands, all the while in a small leather case. Other photojournalists also had several boxes of spare equipment scattered around. Before the press conference, reporters went through strict security checks when they entered the venue.

The photo shoot time scheduled for three minutes later ended quickly, and just as Yamashita was about to return to the building, a deafening explosion suddenly sounded! In the smoke in the sky, Yamashita Fengwen, who was in the middle of the front row, immediately fell to the ground!

Journalists scattered and fled! Most of the military and political dignitaries in the group photo were not calm and fled for their lives!

Ni Xin, who was standing slightly to the right in the middle of the back row, was rushed back a few steps by the explosion and almost fell! After he barely stood still, he pushed aside the people in the way, and rushed to the left side of the front row: "General, are you okay?" ”

The agents of No. 76 reacted quickly, some led people to block the scene, some rescued the wounded, Qian Mingqi and Xie Wei rushed over to rescue Yamashita Fengwen. The explosion occurred in front of Yamashita Fengwen, and both of them were worried that Yamashita Fengwen would not escape!

As everyone was busy, Zhang Zhan paid attention to Ni Xin's reaction, and he was very strange: Ni Xin's concern for the safety of Fengwen under the mountain was far less than that of Ying Zuo Zhenzhao!

Seeing that Ying Zuo Zhenzhao was just grazed in his right hand by the flying shrapnel, Ni Xin was slightly relieved, walked a few steps to the side of Yamashita Fengwen, who was covered in blood, and ordered: "Kawasaki-kun, send to the hospital." Don't mess around, everyone! "Asano and Ezaki Takayuki were injured and stayed in Nanjing, and Tetsuya Kawasaki was the only one who knew that the injured Yamashita Fengfumi was a substitute's subordinate.

coincided with the group photo, there were a lot of people at the scene, and most of them had heads and faces, and the agent of No. 76 did not dare to be too reckless, and it took a lot of effort to finally calm everyone down.

Kagesa was in charge of reassuring several high-ranking officials who had suffered minor injuries and explaining to the rest of the attendees. Ni Xin took Xie Wei and others to detain reporters, staff and some attachés, and screened them one by one.

Zhang Zhan was assigned to Qian Mingqi as an assistant to survey the scene, although there were two technicians accompanying him, Qian Mingqi still called Mao Jun and four personnel from the technical department. Zhang Zhan was busy and observed, and felt more and more that something was wrong: Yamashita Fengwen's injuries were not light, and he was worried about his life. Ni Xin and Ying Zuo Zhenzhao did not follow him to the hospital. If Yamashita Fengwen died, not only No. 76, but also Kagesa Zhenzhao would be dealt with severely, but the two of them were busy with their own affairs and did not discuss countermeasures. Don't...... Isn't it Yamashita Bongbun himself who is at stake?

Zhang Zhan was startled by this sudden thought, and he couldn't verify it. Even if it is confirmed, it will not be possible to pass on the information.

There are some talents in the No. 76 technical department, just after seven o'clock, he took out a three-page "Preliminary Investigation Results", Qian Mingqi took Zhang Zhan to the temporary interrogation room of the auxiliary building, asked Ni Xin to come to the next room, and reported: "Director Ni, please take a look." It was a remote-controlled bomb in a camera kit. The effective distance of the remote control is up to 150 meters, and the subordinates led people to investigate, and the people under the remote control should have hid outside the wall of the Peace Hotel, and absconded after the explosion. This kind of bomb has strong lethality, but the explosion range is not large, and the target is very clear, it is aimed at General Yamashita Fengwen. Director Mao took the fragments back to No. 76 to trace the model and source of the bomb, and he said that he would report to you as soon as the results were available. ”

Ni Xin looked through it hastily and asked, "That box belongs to that media?" ”

"I wanted to track them down one by one, but when I counted the number of people, I found that a photojournalist surnamed Liang was missing, and his camera was discarded at the scene. He said that after the incident, he immediately ordered the other two doors of the Peace Hotel to be closed, leaving only the main entrance. As you know, it's not the 76 family that's in charge of the vigilance mission, and there are some people he doesn't know. The subordinates suspected that the surnamed Liang had taken advantage of the chaos to escape. ”

Zhang Zhan interjected: "This is the "Personnel Entry and Exit Registration Book" I took from Liu Weiping, please take a look." ”

Ni Xin sighed: "Put it here." The press conference had been decided a long time ago, and Lao Peng had not yet been exposed at that time, and if it was this surnamed Liang who planted the bomb, it would not be unusual for him to have a pass. Captain Qian, when the reporters entered the hotel, you were in charge of the security check, right? How did the bomb get in? ”

Qian Mingqi stopped talking, turned his head to Zhang Zhan and said, "You go and ask Director Mao when he can come up with the results." ”

Zhang Zhan agreed and walked out of the room.

After Zhang Zhan left, Qian Mingqi said: "Liu Weiping said that about 20 minutes before the incident, Mrs. Zun sent a maid named Gao Rui to deliver something to you, although it was a person sent by Mrs. Zun, he still habitually opened it and looked at it, it is indeed two dishes, I also went to the trunk of your car just now to see, the dishes are still there, but ......"

Ni Xin sighed helplessly and said, "Woman, that's trouble, who asked her to bring me food?" But what? If you have something to say, just say it. ”

"Yes, during the search, my subordinates found a small palm box with spare photographic equipment on the water tank at the height of the toilet in the bathroom, and took it to a text reporter who came with the "Declaration" to see that he said that it was the equipment of the colleague surnamed Liang, but the small palm box was not used before. His subordinates showed him the remains of the bomb box left at the explosion site, which he said looked like a box of equipment that was often used by the surname Liang. ”

"You mean that the guy surnamed Liang didn't know where he got the little palm box with the bomb in it, changed it and threw away the spare equipment, and then brought the box with the remote-controlled bomb to the scene and caused the explosion."

"Yes."

Ni Xin asked: "What does this have to do with Humble Jing sending someone to bring me food - if you have something to say, what are you doing?" ”

When his subordinates went to Secretary Liu to inquire about the entry and exit of personnel, they asked him and his military police on duty at the gate by the way: Have you seen this small palm box? A gendarme said he seemed to see the maid sent by your wife carrying this small suitcase. ”

Ni Xin was stunned for a moment, and replied: "You wait a minute-" picked up the phone and dialed the phone from home: "Hezi, it's me, I'm fine, the child is okay?" Fever subsided? That's good. Let me ask you something, you sent Gao Rui to deliver me food, how many dishes did you deliver? ”

"Two, what's wrong? Not enough to eat? Is there a woman eating with you? ”

"No kidding, I've got something to do. In addition to the food box, does Sister Gao still hold a small palm box? ”

"No, who did you see who used palm boxes to deliver food? What's wrong? ”

"Where's Gao Rui?"

"I haven't come back yet, I thought you left her, and when you finished eating, let her bring the food box back."

“……”

Tsuruko asked, "Hey, are you still listening?" ”

"Crane, listen to me: nothing happened, I'll be back right away...... I will send Li Xuehui back immediately, and during this period, you should not open the door to anyone, especially Gao Rui, and do not eat, including drink. ”

The crane was frightened: "What's the matter?" Make it clear. Shouldn't I...... Something happened to the dish that was delivered? ”

Ni Xin comforted: "No, it's okay, everything is with me, don't be nervous, no matter how late it is today, I will definitely go home." First of all. ”

Putting down the phone, Ni Xin broke out in a cold sweat: I didn't expect the military commander to actually stretch out his hand to his home! Then he said angrily: "Damn! ”

Qian Mingqi was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.

Ni Xin calmed down for a moment and ordered, "Call Li Xuehui to see me." Captain Qian, inform Deputy Director Xie that all the people should not be interrogated, and the newspapers and news agencies that have no influence will be counted, and the other newspapers and radio stations will leave a reporter, and the others will register and make a simple confession, and let them go. By the way, I ordered Liu Weiping to detain Gan Min for me! I'll ask him tomorrow. You led the team to search for the person surnamed Liang in the "Declaration". ”

Qian Mingqi found Li Xuehui and ordered him to meet Ni Xin, and after conveying Ni Xin's order to Xie Wei and Liu Weiping, he led the team back to set off.

Xie Wei, who didn't know what was going on, ordered his subordinates to carry out Ni Xin's order, and when he came to see Ni Xin, he met Li Xuehui with a solemn face, the two said hello, and Li Xuehui left in a hurry.

Xie Wei walked into the room and said, "Director Ni, how is General Yamashita?" Out of danger? ”

"I don't know, I don't bother asking."

Xie Wei was puzzled: "No matter how busy you are, you ...... The subordinate is saying, why did the interrogation stop? If General Yamashita is killed...... If we catch the murderer early, it can be regarded as an explanation, even if we can't catch the murderer, we must do our best to make a difference to the peak. ”

Ni Xin smiled and replied: "If General Yamashita Fengwen is dead, even if the murderer is caught, he will not be able to explain." ”

Xie Wei hurriedly said: "That's what I said, so you still make an appointment with General Yingzuo and go to the hospital to guard...... The subordinates lost their words, but the subordinates were indeed for ......"

Ni Xin patted Xie Wei on the shoulder and replied, "You take Zhang Zhan to decorate the small conference room in the annex building, and ask the stranded reporters to wait there in half an hour, and then you come to see me." ”

Xie Wei fell into the clouds for five miles, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to do it.

At eight o'clock, Xie Wei ordered Zhang Zhan to look at the more than ten reporters in the conference room, and he was ordered to see Ni Xin, Ni Xin said: "Let's go, I'll take you to meet someone." ”

On the east side of the second floor of the annex building is the room where Kagesa Zhenzhao and Yamashita Fumi's attachés stay, and seven or eight agents are guarding the corridor. Ni Xin took Xie Wei into the second room on the right, and saw Ying Zuozhen Zhao and a man in his fifties sitting opposite each other on the sofa chatting, and that person was Yamashita Fengwen!

Ni Xin gave a military salute: "The general is frightened." ”

Yamashita Fengwen laughed and said, "Ni Sang has worked hard! Military commanders and bandits sniped, poisoned, exploded, and did everything they could, but fortunately with you, I was safe and sound. I will promote Ni Sang to Major General of the Army to General Okamura. ”

"The general cultivates, and the subordinates dare not be ashamed."

"That's as it should be."

"The general will leave Songhu at ten o'clock tonight, before that, please take the time to meet with the reporters and smash the conspiracy of the military commanders."

"Okay, then let's go."

Xie Wei, who couldn't understand Japanese, was stunned on the spot.
