Chapter 49: 016 Special Train (II)
After the carriage door opened, Tang Qianlin stepped into the carriage and found that it was a dining car, exactly like what Zhou Yu said in his memories, but he smelled a very strange smell.
When Tang Qianlin stood there and looked around, Kubo Tiandao misunderstood what he meant, and stood there and explained in detail: "This is an official high-speed special train, using the same Pacific 7 locomotive as the Asia train, which was produced in Showa 9. ”
Tang Qianlin nodded and observed the inside of the car, he didn't know that this type of model was the fastest average speed in Asia at that time, and Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries only produced 12 units for the war of aggression against China, all of which were in service in China, and they were all in the northeast region.
Kubo Tendo's Asia train was synonymous with high-end luxury coaches in the Puppet Manchurian region at that time, and the route included from Changchun to Dalian and Changchun to Busan, North Korea. During the first run, it set a record of running more than 700 kilometers from Changchun to Dalian in 7 and a half hours.
This Pacific No. 7 locomotive adopts a streamlined design, the locomotive wheel diameter is 2 meters, the structure design speed is 130 kilometers per hour, and the automatic coaling system and feed water preheating device are adopted, which can load 37 tons of water and 12 tons of coal, which is considered to be the most advanced locomotive in the world at that time.
At that time, the Manchurian Railway of Japan defined this type of train as a limited express train, and in order to withstand the cold weather in the Tohoku region, closed double windows were used, and the whole car was equipped with air conditioning units manufactured by the American company Carrier.
"Originally, the first carriage was supposed to be loaded with luggage, but because it was a special train for official use, it was changed to a dining car, and there were a total of five carriages with the dining car." Kubo Tendo Station said in detail, "The front car, the dining car, the ordinary car, the conference car, the rest car, and the entourage car. ”
Ni Xiaowan looked around in the dining car, and Tang Qianlin asked, "How many people can sit on this train when it is full?" ”
Kubo Tendo recalled, "Theoretically, 80 people could be seated, but in practice no more than 40 people could be seated at any one time. ”
Ni Xiaowan turned around at this time and asked, "After the incident, have the things here been moved?" ”
Kubo Tiandao smiled: "We've already searched once, so let's count it." ”
Tang Qianlin looked at him and asked, "Did you find any useful clues?" ”
Kubo Tiandao shook his head expressionlessly: "No, except for the corpse, there is nothing suspicious about the others." ”
Ni Xiaowan glanced at Tang Qianlin, and after getting Tang Qianlin's nod of permission, she asked, "Did this special train have been missing for half a month before it was found that night?" ”
"Yes, mysteriously disappeared, disappeared on the railroad line." Kubo Tendo did not hide it, "For half a month, there was no trace to be found." ”
Tang Qianlin turned around in the dining car, stretched out his hand to open the door of the second carriage, and said at the same time: "Give me the list of members on the car." ”
Kubo Amamichi stood behind and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't been notified of this. ”
Ni Xiaowan asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Kubo Amamichi replied, "I was not told above, but I am sorry that I can provide a list of passengers on the special train." ”
Tang Qianlin closed the door and turned to leave: "Then I don't need to check again." ”
Tang Qianlin and Ni Xiaowan got off the train, and Kubo Tiandao stood there watching the back of the two of them leaving the train.
On the other side, at the edge of the railroad tracks, Li Yunfan and Yi Mochen were walking there aimlessly.
Li Yunfan checked the surrounding terrain, but Yi Mochen was a little absent-minded.
"It's desolate, there's nothing." Li Yunfan looked around, "In this kind of place, just find a nest in a nest, as long as you don't get close, no one can find out." ”
Yi Mochen just said "um".
Li Yunfan asked: "What do you think of this case?" ”
"What?" Yi Mochen came back to his senses.
Li Yunfan stepped forward: "You were absent-minded all the way, what's wrong?" What do you think? Is something wrong? ”
Yi Mochen shook his head: "No, I just don't understand something." ”
As soon as Li Yunfan wanted to ask him if there was anything he couldn't understand, he saw Tang Qianlin and Ni Xiaowan appear at the railway fork in the distance.
Li Yunfan hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it?" ”
Tang Qianlin shook his head: "We were probably just sent here for a walk-through." ”
"Why?" Li Yunfan asked strangely, "Is something wrong?" ”
Ni Xiaowan turned to look at Kubo Tiandao, who was walking from a distance: "The Japanese don't provide a list of passengers, and this train has been missing for half a month before it was found. ”
Li Yunfan frowned: "What? Been missing for half a month? ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Yes, the problem is here, within half a month, no one found this train, but half a month later, in the early morning, it suddenly appeared at this small station, all the people on the car died, died so strangely, who the dead person was, they didn't say, so, I think just sent us to go through the motions." ”
While the three of them were talking, Yi Mochen stepped forward, looked in the direction of Xiao Zhan and said, "Someone is coming." ”
The crowd looked in the direction of the small station and saw a car parked there, and several people stepped out of the car.
The two men in the leader, both of them wore fur hats, one was about the same age as Li Yunfan, with a cold face, and the other was wearing glasses, but he didn't know his age, because he covered his face with a scarf, causing a burst of white mist to rise on the lenses every time, I don't know if he was afraid of the cold, or afraid of being recognized by others.
"The one in front is Zhang Liankai, head of the Investigation Section of the Hailar Local Security Bureau." Li Yunfan looked at the man who was about the same age as himself and said, "Back then, I was a classmate of the Security Bureau training class with him, he was very smart, and he was among the best in all subjects. ”
Yi Mochen said: "I remember, it's the genius you used to mention, right?" ”
Li Yunfan nodded and said, "Yes, if he was in Harbin, it would not be my turn to be the head of the investigation section at all." ”
Tang Qianlin looked at Zhang Liankai who came over: "He is so smart, how could he be sent to such a desolate place?" ”
"Voluntary." Li Yunfan explained, "When he graduated, he was asked to stay in the Xinjing Security Bureau, but he politely refused, he wanted to go back to Hailar, firstly because he was a local, and secondly, because he had always wanted to find out an unsolved case here in Hailar. ”
Ni Xiaowan said strangely: "Unsolved case? ”
Li Yunfan looked at Zhang Liankai, who was getting closer and closer: "Don't talk about it, I'll explain it to you when I have a chance." ”
As he spoke, Li Yunfan smiled and greeted Zhang Liankai: "Liankai, I haven't seen you for a few days." ”
Zhang Liankai smiled and held Li Yunfan's hand: "The last time we met was in Xinjing, I heard that you have been promoted." ”
Li Yunfan shook his head: "I'm ashamed, it's still the same as before." ”
Zhang Liankai turned to the man beside him at this time: "Yunfan, guess who he is?" ”
Li Yunfan looked at the man with a scarf covering his face, shook his head for a while and said, "I don't know, who?" ”
The man pulled down his scarf slightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Yunfan, don't you know me?" ”
After Li Yunfan saw his face clearly, he was surprised: "Senior instructor! ”
This man is none other than Gao Shigui, the instructor who taught Li Yunfan and Zhang Liankai modern criminal investigation in the training class back then, and is the person who makes Li Yunfan and Zhang Liankai both respect and fear.
Gao Shigui looked at Tang Qianlin and the others beside Li Yunfan: "Who are?" ”
Li Yunfan introduced: "My new colleague, this is Mr. Tang Qianlin, a senior consultant, and the young lady next to him is his assistant Ni Xiaowan, and the one over there is Fa Xiaoyi Mochen that I have often mentioned to you before. ”
Zhang Liankai and Gao Shigui shook hands with everyone one by one, and without saying anything polite, they went straight to the point.
Zhang Liankai said: "Yunfan, you are here to investigate the 016 project, right?" ”
Li Yunfan nodded: "Yes, you are too, right?" ”
Zhang Liankai said: "That's right, the Xinjing Security Bureau ordered us to solve the case in Hailar within a time limit, no, and sent the senior instructor down as an inspector." ”
Li Yunfan said with a smile: "With you and Senior Instructor here, I believe this case will be solved soon." ”
Zhang Liankai just smiled unnaturally, while Gao Shigui responded coldly: "Not necessarily." Lian Kai, let's go see the scene. ”
Zhang Liankai said: "Yunfan, let's go over and have a look?" ”
Li Yunfan nodded and said, "Let's go." ”
As the three of them walked towards that side, Kubo Tendo stepped forward to stop them and said, "Documents." ”
Tang Qianlin stood not far away and looked at them, thinking about something.
Ni Xiaowan said: "Uncle Shi, don't you think it's strange? It's been so long since this case happened, why is the Hailar Local Security Bureau only here now? ”
"That's what I think is strange, is it because the Japanese don't let them interfere?" Tang Qianlin was deeply puzzled, "Or is it that Kyoji Miyake deliberately pressed them, let us come first?" ”
Ni Xiaowan said: "Could it be that something is wrong inside the puppet Manchurians?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "I don't know, everything is unknown now, let's go over and take a look." ”
Under the leadership of Kubo Tenmichi, everyone boarded the 016 special train that stopped on the armament railway line.
Gao Shigui held the camera in his hand, shooting while walking, and only made eye contact with Zhang Liankai during the inspection, during which he didn't say a word, I don't know whether the two should say tacit understanding or deliberately.
After inspecting the five carriages, Gao Shigui turned around and got off the train, still without saying a word, and then walked slowly in the direction of the station.
After Zhang Liankai got out of the car, he called Li Yunfan aside: "Yunfan, do you have the list of occupants in the car?" ”
Li Yunfan shook his head: "No." ”
Zhang Liankai just smiled.
Li Yunfan said: "I really don't have it, the Japanese don't provide it to us." ”
"I know that you have a lot of authority in the newly established secret search department, and although the external propaganda is subordinate to the Security Bureau, it is actually independent." Zhang Liankai said calmly, "This case, we were originally going to take over at the beginning, but it has been pressed on the top, so we have to let you come first, but it seems that you have no clue." ”
Li Yunfan said with a smile: "You are still so strong, and you still like to use the agitation method, you should know that these are useless to me, and I really don't know the crew list." ”
"The 016 project, the local security bureau didn't originally send me, I took the initiative to apply to take over this hot potato, and no one wants to touch this case here." Zhang Liankai looked at Li Yunfan, "You probably don't know why, right?" ”
Li Yunfan shook his head: "Why?" ”
Zhang Liankai said: "It seems that your superiors didn't tell you anything. ”
Li Yunfan said: "If you have something to say, you can say it directly. ”
"Gardener." After Zhang Liankai said these two words, he looked at Kubo Tiandao who came and hurriedly said, "Let's go back and talk about it." ”
After Zhang Liankai finished speaking, he walked head-on towards Kubo Tiandao, and after passing by, he trotted to catch up with Gao Shigui in front.
