It was dark and it was dark in the attic without lights. Under the wall of the building that was blown up, there were sixteen thugs who came to guard the door led by You Yiman. Outside the locked wooden door were the French Concession patrolmen who followed Ma Weisan and were ready to come in and arrest the prisoners.

Under such a confrontation, it is difficult to compare who is superior and who is inferior for a while.

Ma Weisan sat beside the pile of debris in embarrassment, looking up at Huo Zuo, who was lighting a cigarette to smoke. The two young men were not in a hurry or impatient, but on the contrary, he was a little uncontrollable as a detective.

Ma Weisan said: "You have to listen to me first, and figure out what the chips are. ”

Huo Zuo gently spit out the wisp of smoke between his lips, and his expression was indifferent: "I'll listen, Inspector Ma." ”

The sparks that flickered in the darkness flickered and dimmed, blurring the faces of the three people in the game, and it was impossible to distinguish who was the dealer. Ma Weisan stared at him: "It's not a problem now. What if you escape? So many people died with you? It's useless for you to escape, this matter is a big problem, even if you kill me, your group of friends, brothers, and subordinates won't live long. ”

"Shanghai is so big—"

"Shanghai is not big, the northern army and the southern government, which one have you escaped?"

"Then the whole of China is so big, I don't believe that there is nowhere to go."

"Are you willing to live a life on the run like this?"

Huo Zuo's tongue licked through the cigarette filter. He gritted his teeth lightly and lowered his head as if in thought.

Ma Weisan continued: "We don't need to make such a big deal out of this situation. You obediently follow me, let them rob the Frenchman's big cigarette cart, and hand over a few little minions so that I can have a way to get promoted and make a fortune. If you go to prison, how you come out has nothing to do with me. In this way, I also did what I should have done for Qin Shengzhu, and my brother-in-law and I are completely incomparable. You are here, and I have given it a favor. As for Yiman, those friends of yours are safe and sound. ”

He spread his hands, looking humble as he cooperated, and just waited for Huo Zuo to make a statement. Shen Yigong stood beside the man, and his left and right feet were very uneasy and exchanged his center of gravity.

In the small attic, the smell of gunpowder is mixed with the smell of smoke, which inexplicably makes people feel stuffy and suffocated.

The cigarette butt burned in the darkness, falling to the ground and shattering sparks. Huo Zuo finally spoke.

"Okay."

"Master!" Shen Yigong grabbed Huo Zuo's wrist and looked at him with burning eyes. Huo Zuo chuckled, reached out and pinched his face, turned his head and said to Ma Weisan: "Can I still believe you this time?" ”

Ma Weisan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and handed over the gun in his hand: "If you want me to repent, you let your apprentice shoot me down." ”

"Okay." Huo Zuo took his gun and handed it to Shen Yigong, and instructed him, "Do you hear, Shen Yigong." As long as he regrets it, you shoot. ”

Then he turned around, his hands outstretched and waited for the other to handcuff him. Ma Weisan stood up with his hands folded, glancing at the teenagers behind the man as he handcuffed him.

Shen Yigong's eyes were surging, but there was a gate to block this, and it was difficult for any waves or waves to impact in the slightest. Huo Zuo's madness was like a sharp blade, but the big boy's forbearance was like a sheath. Ma Weisan looked at him for a moment and then subconsciously looked away: "In that case, you let You Yiman lead people back." ”

"Okay, when they're gone, I'll go with you." Huo Zuo turned his head and bowed to Shen Yi, "Go downstairs, go and tell your Aunt You, I put the document brought by Inspector Ma in the study, and she will know what to do after reading it." Then he said, "Inspector Ma, open a way for my apprentice." ”

Ma Weisan shouted outside the house: "Okay! All put down their guns. ”

Outside, I heard the sound of guns falling to the ground. Ma Weisan made a "please" gesture for Shen Yigong, and the young man clenched his fists, and after sweeping the two of them unwillingly, he smashed the things in front of the door and pushed the door open. There was a group of patrols crowded in the narrow stairwell outside the door, and when they saw someone open the door and come out, they all wanted to raise their guns again, but Ma Weisan raised his head and said calmly: "Okay, put the gun down." Is it okay now? "These people put down their guns and made a way.

Shen Yigong walked down the steps under everyone's gaze, and when he turned, he turned around again, and looked at Huo Zuo's face that seemed to be smiling, his lips trembled lightly, as if he wanted to say something, but the man nodded his head first, and said two words to him with a soothing lip shape: Let's go.

He finally strode downstairs as if he had made up his mind.

The footsteps gradually faded away, and Huo Zuo let out a sigh and looked up at the few stars of mildew on the ceiling.

Ma Weisan helped him out of the attic, and couldn't help but sigh: "You have a good apprentice, Lao Huo." ”

"I think so, too."

Shen Yigong walked out of the bathhouse with a smell of bloody gunpowder smoke under the sight of the patrol, looked back at the building behind him, turned around and waved at You Yiman on the roof of the opposite building. The woman wrapped her trench coat tightly and flicked the cigarette butt open, gave orders from left to right, and led the people down.

Just as the drama ends, the soldiers will step down. The flood waters receded, and the ground was in shambles. It didn't take a moment for the crowded streets to fall silent. The cold wind of autumn swept the yellow leaves and drifted into the stagnant water.

Following Huo Zuo's instructions, You Yiman found the document he said in his study.

Shen Yigong looked at the figure of the woman sitting by the brazier through the bead curtain. The tongue of flame, which burned and jumped, grabbed the corner of the paper and spread wildly. The entire document was burned to ashes in a short time. The woman had a jade cigarette butt in her mouth, staring blankly at the fire, but she didn't notice that Shen Yigong had walked in.

"Aunt You."

You Yiman reacted, took the cigarette holder out of his mouth, bit the cigarette and lit the flame: "Did your master ask you to tell me something?" ”

"Yes."

"What is it?"

"He said you'll know if you've seen it."

You Yiman was smoking a cigarette with a cigarette holder in his hand, tilting his head slightly, and his hair was scattered. After a while, she chuckled and leaned back in her chair: "He is really reassuring to me. What about you, did he tell you to do anything? ”

Shen Yigong shook his head: "Master asked me to listen to you." ”

"Did Ma Weisan give you his gun?"

"Yes."

"That'll do." You Yiman grew a puff of smoke, his eyelashes trembling slightly, "There is only one thing you have to do, I will tell you tomorrow night." ”

Tomorrow night, at ten o'clock, the French car can be flanked in front and back when crossing the Waibaidu Bridge, forcing the armed men on the car to get out of the car. The French led the troops to guard this batch of cigarette paste, and the weapons and equipment were average, as long as there were enough people from this side, they could grab the goods.

You Yiman will arrange this. Ma Weisan was afraid that something would happen, so he deliberately sent someone over to keep an eye on it.

Shen Yigong only waited for it to get dark the next day, and took it to You Yiman as soon as it was dark, and the woman stuffed him with a note, and after he opened it and read it, he disappeared from the Huo Mansion without a trace.

As for Huo Zuo, he didn't suffer much after being escorted back to the patrol room last night. In the end, the identity is there, and Ma Weisan is also a fox friend, and there is still a cooperative relationship with him. Although the prison looks shabby, no one will come out of the way to do anything malicious to him.

As soon as it was dark, the hawkers returned home, and the streets became sparsely populated, and everyone waited intently for the Frenchman's cart of cigarette paste to enter the city. The truckload was brought by water from India. The escort car is all white ghosts, and after being loaded from the dock, they are transported in the night. After nine o'clock, the streets of Shanghai were quiet, and there were no people in the suburbs. The truck drove along the main road towards the rental street with a pair of bright headlights. When I was about to get on the bridge, I heard the sound of other car engines in the night.

The truck got on the bridge, but saw a car get off the other side of the bridge. The driver muttered to himself and looked into the rearview mirror to the other side of the bridge - followed by a car that had been stopped.

Gunshots rang out on the banks of the river—and for a moment the silence and darkness were shattered. The bullet passed through the heads of several people in the cab before heading to the armed men in the car.

For a while, the sound of fighting began, and only the sound of gunfire remained on the silent bridge on the riverbank.

At this moment, Ma Weisan was sitting in his office waiting, and the moment the phone rang, he rushed faster than anyone else, and rushed over to pick up the receiver. This guy's eyes look like they're going to pop out.

Listening to his righteous words: "Yes, this is the patrol room." What the? Good! Yes, the plot is too bad! Yes, it's so rampant! Okay, well, I'll definitely arrest them as soon as possible! ”

He hung up the phone and slammed the table, grinned and scolded: "Damn, these little scumbags are going to rebel!" ”

This big drama babbled and kicked off, and he Ma Weisan was Mu Guiying, who was in charge, and he seemed to be in this treacherous situation.

After finishing speaking, he immediately led people to the detention room, and when he arrived, he shouted at the guards: "Quick, interrogate Huo Zuo!" Right now! ”

With a flick of his hand, the man who followed him immediately stepped forward and followed the guard. When he got to this, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the time on the table clock.

10:27, ok, not too late.

Huo Zuo lay calmly in his cell. It's so relaxing, like lying at home. When the lock opened, his eyelids moved, but he didn't get up, until the door opened and closed again, and he suddenly laughed: "I didn't think - I didn't think that it would be you, Third Uncle, who would come here to see me in the end." ”

After speaking, one sat up and sat up. In the small cell, standing in the middle with his hands behind his back was Qin Shengzhu's henchman guard: Zhou Wei.

He was wearing the guard uniform in the patrol room, and it was obvious that he was the person who had just followed Ma Weisan. Seeing that he was debunked by Huo Zuo, Zhou Wei didn't refute it, but just shook his head lightly: "Xiao Huo, I told you, young people still have to look at the ground when they walk at night, and it is difficult to avoid falling on their heels after walking for a long time." ”

Huo supported his knees with his elbows on both sides: "I won't ask much else." You probably want me to die today, right? ”

"The people under your command robbed the cigarette paste of foreigners, killed the soldiers of foreigners, knew that they could not escape a serious crime, and committed suicide in prison. Is it reasonable? ”

He sneered: "Yes, committing suicide in fear of sin, and being able to clear the suspicion of Master Qin, and taking this opportunity to break with the original underworld industry, is really a good plan to kill two birds with one stone." ”
