The Nanjing side deployed a monopoly inspection action against Shanghai, and Jiang Jingguo, acting mayor of Shanghai, personally set up a special task force, saying that it would thoroughly supervise and inspect and never tolerate it.

At a press conference held by the municipal government, Xiao Jiang made an impassioned statement to many reporters at the scene: "Friends from the press, this operation is personally deployed by the central government, and I am personally responsible, and I will cooperate with the Shanghai Police Department, the Civil Affairs Department, and the Anti-Corruption Bureau to conduct a joint investigation. Jingguo is not talented, and he is willing to do his best to go to the soup and fire. Please give us two months, and after two months, we will give you a stable and prosperous Shanghai. ”

When a reporter asked, "May I ask Mayor Chiang Ching-kuo, I heard that many black-hearted traders in Shanghai have a very strong background, and it is conceivable that this inspection action will face great resistance, do you have any preparations for this?" ”

Jiang Jingguo glanced at the reporter, and then said firmly: "Jingguo hereby says that this operation only fights tigers, not flies!" If anyone dares to defy the law, Jingguo will not tolerate it! ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a roaring applause, and then the reporter's magnesium light flashed, and Jiang Jingguo, who was dressed in a black lapel national uniform, looked serious and awe-inspiring. The next day, this photo was taken as a front-page cover by many newspapers, and the headline was even more eye-catching: The mayor of Jingguo said that the Shanghai operation only fights tigers, not flies!

The focus of domestic public opinion began to focus on Shanghai, and everyone was paying attention to this tiger fight.

……

At this time, Hu Biao picked up a newspaper with the title of "Tiger Fighting Operation", and after flipping through a few pages, the whistle urging the train to enter the station sounded.

He folded the newspaper, carried a briefcase, and followed the surging flow of people towards the train station.

This time, he made a special trip to Nanjing to ask for help.

Lao Pan sent him a distress signal in prison, and after Hu Biao learned about it, he immediately went to find his old chief Zhu Jingxing, in a vain attempt to contact Huang Zheng through Zhu Jingxing to conduct a thorough investigation of the case.

Regrettably, after making many inquiries, he learned that Zhu Jingxing and Huang Zheng had led their troops to Europe to prepare to participate in the military war against Germany, and they would definitely not be able to return in the short term.

"What's next?" For a while, Hu Biao ran out of ideas in a panic. He submitted several appeals to the Shanghai Special Procuratorate, but they said that the case was not under their jurisdiction, but under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Special Court, and that if he wanted to appeal, he would have to go there.

As time passed, Mo Bing heard that after the Shanghai side was ready to implement the evidence, it would be handed over to the procuratorate for prosecution, and then it should be killed and sentenced.

If it is transferred to the procuratorate, it will be difficult to overturn the case again. What's more, this is a special period, and after the transfer to the procuratorate, it means that a public trial will be held soon, and even if you find anyone, you will have no power to return to heaven.

There is not much time left for Hu Biao, and he must now race against time to get this matter done before the court proceeds to trial.

When he was helpless, he knew that he had to rush to Nanjing.

After the end of the war, the railway passenger and cargo ships became busy, and there were many more trains between Beijing and Shanghai, of course, it still could not meet the needs of the passengers, so every train was overcrowded.

Hu Biao used his connections in the pre-office to get a ticket, set off in the morning, and arrived in Nanjing in the evening, which is also very fast.

Hu Biao's initial plan was very simple: after arriving in Nanjing, he was going to go to the headquarters of the pre-cadre department to make a direct appeal, and these cases were still cases within the pre-cadre department, and going to the headquarters to directly make an appeal could be regarded as conforming to certain procedures.

But he definitely can't go at night, tonight, he has to stay in Nanjing, the location is arbitrary, any hotel can be settled, he does not require much living conditions, but there must be a little, to be close to the pre-dry place.

In this way, he will be able to rush there early tomorrow morning to wait, and if he is lucky, he may be able to wait until Director Yang Yibing's car passes.

The train roared forward, Hu Biao looked at the rice fields that were passing quickly, and couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart, it was already spring, where was he in the last spring?

He thought about it, was he still in the expeditionary force last spring?

He is a combat hero with great achievements and a bright future.

It's just that the change is too fast, and before he can react, he almost gave his life in. Over the years, whether I am fighting a war or lurking in Shanghai, I have experienced life and death many times, and some things have long been downplayed, but why are I still so angry and nervous when it comes to this kind of thing of being framed?

Anger is a matter of course, and anyone with a modicum of conscience will probably be angry about such a thing, but why should they be nervous?

To be honest, even though Hu Biao is fearless, he is also worried that this kind of thing will happen to his head, he is thinking, if it happens to his head, then what will be the outcome waiting for him?

He didn't dare to think about it, because he had already experienced something similar once, and if he thought about it now, he would feel creepy.

People are really not fearless, and whoever wants to say that they are fearless is a lie.

Hu Biao remembered what Pastor Sean had said to him on the battlefield in Burma before, "When a person has a firm belief, he is stronger and courageous than strong." ”

It's just that he doesn't know if he has such a firm belief now?

……

In the midst of the flying thoughts, the train stopped at Nanjing Station.

The train began to be lively, bustling, full of endless streams of passengers, all rushing towards the exit of the station.

After Hu Biao left the station, he called a rickshaw and went straight to the pre-dry place.

"Are there any cheap hotels nearby?" On the way, Hu Biao asked the rickshaw driver.

"You mean the pre-dry building? That area is all military units, and there are very few civilians living there, besides, who will have nothing to do with opening a hotel there. If you want to sue, there is a Chase Hotel two miles away from the pre-dry office, the price is cheap, and it is not too far away, so you can rush over early tomorrow morning. "The rickshaw driver has good physical strength, and he talks to Hu Biao from time to time when he trots.

Hu Biao was happy, he smiled and asked, "How do you know that I am here to sue?" ”

The rickshaw driver smiled, "I've pulled a lot of guests like you during this time." They all went to the pre-cadre office, and they were all unjust. ”

"Then how do you conclude that the one who went to the pre-dry place is the one who complained? This complaint should not go to the Supreme Court, and if it is not good, it will go to the Central Executive Committee, and how can it still accept the complaint from an intelligence gathering agency? Hu Biao happily chatted with the coachman.

"I said, don't be angry." The coachman said again.

"Well, I'm not angry. You say. The coachman said happily.

"Well, you name it." Hu Biao is not shy about it.

"Nowadays, there are few complaints that go to the court, because the court is in charge of hearing, and the complaints come to the pre-cadre office, because the pre-cadre department has been arresting traitors recently." After the coachman spoke, he hurriedly said, "I'm not saying that you are a traitor or that you are a traitor, and it is too late for him to hide the real traitor?" How dare you run to complain? ”

The coachman talked eloquently, "It's a good thing to catch traitors, but I'm afraid that the execution will not be good." Now some people are using this as a cover to wantonly arrest people and collect money. I'll tell you the truth, a few days ago a little brother of mine in Suzhou was arrested and said that he had pulled a car for the Japanese before. You say, we are all mixed food, who can give money without pulling? This was given as a traitor, and later the family scraped together 200 yuan to send it over, and it was considered to be released. ”

Hu Biao understood, the situation that the coachman said was really serious.

The coachman also said: "These days, many people from all over the country have come to the pre-cadre office to complain, saying that their family members have been defined as traitors, some have done something unconscionable, but some are simply shadowless things. It is said that the people who are now responsible for catching traitors are fat errands. ”

Hu Biao nodded, it seemed that the situation was much more complicated than he imagined.

The coachman continued: "Many people come here these days, all like you, dressed in decent clothes and trendy clothes, and they all look rich. ”

Hu Biao didn't answer him, he asked with interest: "Then you say, do you have a good chance of winning this lawsuit?" ”

"Who knows? Anyway, I'm in a hurry, so I have to give it a try. ”

"Why don't people go to the building of the Central Executive Committee to complain, and when the chairman sees it, don't they pay more attention to it?" Hu Biao asked again.

"Hey, there are three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry over there, and before you can see the car, you are basically pressed down. It's better here, there are fewer cars on the road, and the people at the pre-dry place have to be kind to persuade each other. Besides, it's all the work of the people below the pre-cadre department, so I should go to them. The coachman laughed.

Hu Biao nodded and did not speak.

The coachman walked quickly, and after running for more than half an hour, he arrived at the Chase Hotel he was talking about.

"How much?" Hu Biao got out of the car, the driver reported the money, and when Hu Biao took out his wallet, he brought out his military ID card.

When the coachman looked at the military ID card of the blue shell, he couldn't help but be nervous, "You, you...... Are you the one in the pre-dry? That, this military master, I just talked nonsense......"

Hu Biao looked at the certificate in his hand and smiled slightly: "Ah, yes." But don't worry, I'm here to sue too. ”

As he spoke, he put away his documents and walked towards a small restaurant next to the Chase Hotel with his briefcase, he hadn't eaten much today, and now Hu Biao's stomach was already hungry, and it seemed that he urgently needed something to eat.

The coachman scratched his head when he looked at Hu Biao's distant back, and he wondered: "It's strange! It's the first time I've heard of people from the pre-drying department coming to the pre-drying office to file a complaint. ”
