Outside the gate of Huijiang Hotel, a large number of citizens were still watching the fun. The people in the police station carried the bodies out of the hotel one by one and threw them on the truck beside them.

Only then did the citizens realize that there was a shooting case in the explosion hotel. However, as the bodies were lifted out one by one, the crowd gradually became turbulent, with screams of surprise, and endless discussion. Finally, because there were too many corpses, another truck had to be transferred, and then all the corpses were loaded away.

At this point, the incident of Luo Zidong and his group of more than 40 people being killed in the Huijiang Hotel quickly spread to all levels and sectors of the French Concession.

Among the crowd watching the excitement, two young and strong men in suits kept saying nothing. They quietly observed the policemen cleaning up the mess and listened carefully to the contents of the people around them. After a long time, they looked at each other, quietly left the crowd, walked through two blocks together, and entered an apartment.

These two men were the Shanghai station cadres, director of the Shanghai Concession, Lu Jian, director of the Intelligence Department, and Yang Wenbo, captain of the Operations Team. They have been hiding in the French Concession these days and are nervously preparing for the reconstruction of the Shanghai Station. However, today they encountered this assassination while on their way out for business.

As soon as they entered the door, they quickly reported to the stationmaster Chen Hongchi. After listening to their narrative, Chen Hongchi widened his eyes when he heard it. After a long time, he said: "It is said that Shanghai is a place where the wind and clouds gather, but it is really worthy of its name. We have only been to Shanghai for a few days, but the successive events have opened our eyes. The great turmoil in the city of Shanghai and the big explosion in the French Concession. In contrast, our small movements in Beijing cannot be put on the table."

These are all the sincere words of Chen Hongchi. He was ordered to re-establish the Shanghai Station. He was originally full of confidence and wanted to show his strength and create a situation. But now he realizes that the struggle between the enemy and us in Shanghai is so cruel and fierce, which is completely different from their work behind enemy lines in Peking.

Chen Hongchi continued: "The news of Luo Zidong surrendering to the enemy a few days ago was very rumored. I also sent a message to the headquarters for details. The headquarters' answer was indeed true, and I asked me to wait for an opportunity except for this person, but my staff had not yet been in place, so someone took action. Do you think it would be the intelligence department again?"

Director of Intelligence Lu Jian nodded and said, "Who else besides them? I was wondering a few days ago that the news of Luo Zidong surrendering to the enemy and how such a secret news came out. Now it seems that they are doing it. This is clearly a matter of killing people to establish their authority.

These people are really domineering! They have turned Shanghai upside down, and now they have reached into the concession again. They have made a big move. In a blink of an eye, more than 40 gunmen and bodyguards have been killed completely, and this action is too big!"

Yang Wenbo nodded with lingering fear and said, "We are in Peking, killing a president of a traitor chamber of commerce is already a big move. Then I have been planning for nearly half a month before killing two people. But here in Shanghai, the actions are so big, are the operations of the intelligence department so powerful? What should we do in the future?"

Chen Hongchi couldn't help scratching his scalp with his hands and said with a wry smile: "I had thought about doing some good results before, but the intelligence department is so fierce, wouldn't we be with the prince to study and serve as a foil for others?"

Everyone felt something and looked at each other. With the outstanding performance of these peers, if they don’t make some achievements in their future actions, they are afraid they will really not be able to raise their heads. The Shanghai Intelligence Department put too much pressure on them!

"Okay, let's not mention these anymore. Now it's useless to think about these. If the operation staff is not in place, we are just commanders who can't do anything!"

Seeing that everyone was feeling a little depressed, Chen Hongchi waved his hand and changed the topic and said, "Old Lu, how is the matter going? Are they willing to lend some? We need funds urgently now, and we can't do anything without money!"

The reconstruction work of Shanghai Station this time was much difficult, and the most important thing was the lack of money. The headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau allocated a sum of funds to him through the Central Bank left behind in Shanghai, but it was far from enough. Chen Hongchi raised a sum of funds from the Peking Station and brought it to Shanghai.

But these two small amounts of funds are still fiat currency. Now in Shanghai, the market value of fiat currency has plummeted. To be honest, the money has shrunk a lot after it has gone halfway.

Now Chen Hongchi is eager to exchange these fiat currencies for US dollars and pounds, but major banks in Shanghai do not exchange them for individuals at all, so Chen Hongchi tried to exchange the US dollars through the four state-owned banks. However, the only foreign exchange reserves of the four major state-owned banks must be used to balance the exchange rate and maintain the only remaining commercial reputation and value of the fiat currencies, and is unwilling to exchange them. Even the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau does not have the ability to interfere in the decision of the Ministry of Finance.

So Chen Hongchi had no choice but to let Lu Jian negotiate many times, and today he asked them to continue to do these things.

Lu Jian shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It is impossible to make a loan, but after all, a director of the Silian Branch finally spat out and could exchange a part for us."

Chen Hongchi was overjoyed and nodded and said, "This is good news. The exchanged funds are reserved as reserves. Other fiat currencies are spent quickly and put on the shelves. When the headquarters calls, our staff will enter Shanghai in a few days. We must hurry up our work."

When Lu Jian heard this, he also spoke: "It's great. With people, our work can be carried out. However, webmaster, our intelligence work cannot keep up. When will the intelligence network that the headquarters promised to arrange for us be ready?"

Chen Hongchi waved his hand and said, "We can't wait for them. We will do it first. Now is the time when No. 76 is weak. They can't take care of themselves. It's a good time for us to take action."

Several people nodded. They had been following Chen Hongchi for a long time. They knew that this boss had outstanding abilities and had always been arrogant. If they didn't say it, they were afraid that they would also have the desire to compare with the Shanghai Intelligence Department in their hearts and would not be willing to fall behind!

In the French Concession General Police Office, Radaming and his men took a long time to handle the scene and returned to the General Police Office. He had something to do in his mind and gave all the follow-up work to Zhang Puhe. He quickly walked out of the door, started the vehicle, and rushed straight to his master Chen Ting's residence.

After entering Chen Mansion, he rushed directly to the study room to meet his master. He pushed the door and entered. He saw Chen Tingzheng lying on the rattan chair on the ground, closing his eyes to rest and listening to the opera, and his fingers tapping on the rattan chair rhythmically, looking leisurely and contented.

When Chen Ting heard someone come in, he opened his eyes and looked at it. Seeing that it was Radaming, he didn't care. Then he listened to the song and hummed a few words from time to time to answer.

Seeing that his master was in high spirits, Radaming had to sit aside and wait until the song was finished. Chen Ting straightened up and pointed his hand at Radaming.

Radarmin quickly stepped forward and moved the needle of the pickup on the record machine away, and the music came to an abrupt end.

"What's wrong? What happened again?" Chen Ting asked slowly.

Lei Daming's face was solemn, and he whispered: "Master, Wan Mulin killed Luo Zidong, this is forcing us to take sides! It's too ruthless for him to do this!"

"What!"

Chen Tingwen suddenly stared at the boss, and he stood up from the recliner, completely gone from the leisurely expression just now. He stared at Lei Daming and asked in a deep voice: "What the hell is going on? Tell me clearly!"

"Just at noon today, Luo Zidong invited Wan Mulin at the Huijiang Grand Hotel, but Wan Mulin was not present at all. As a result, a big explosion occurred in the hotel and the entire floor was blown up. Luo Zidong, his brother Yan Xing, and more than 40 bodyguards and gunmen were all killed. When we arrived, the scene was extremely tragic, exactly the same as when Lu Tianqiao was killed two years ago. There was no sign of resistance. The other party calmly re-selled the gun, all shot at close range, leaving no living mouth. This is the unique technique of Chongqing agents. I am sure the same group did it."

Chen Ting couldn't help but gasp when he heard this. He turned his body sideways and walked back and forth in the room several times, his brain thinking quickly.

Radaming continued: "After the murderer escaped without a trace, Wan Mulin sent Chai A Si into the hotel and confirmed Luo Zidong's life and death in front of me. This is a warning to us! Master, do you think Wan Mulin is trying to force us to express his opinion? If you don't agree to that matter, I'm afraid it won't work!"

Chen Ting's brows frowned even more, and after a long time, he said in confusion: "I have been dealing with Wan Mulin for so many years. Isn't he so domineering in his past?"

Radaming shook his head and said, "It must be his work. Luo Zidong was so scared that he kept his door shut because of betraying Chongqing agents. He dispatched a large number of bodyguards to guard the house and guard the hospital. He had been safe. But today, Wan Mulin was transferred out of Luo Mansion. As a result, this happened. Who else do you think it would be?"

When Chen Ting heard this, he couldn't help but believe that things would not be so coincidental. As for the people behind Wan Mulin, they have a special relationship with the Military Affairs Bureau, so there is no problem in doing this.

Chen Ting sighed: "Oh, it's been a long time since we've had a relationship. Do you really have to force it so tight?"

Radaming said with a serious expression: "He now has the support of Chongqing and is full of confidence. This matter is also of great importance. He came back from Hong Kong specifically, so he is determined to win. It is normal for him to be more ruthless. But if we don't agree, he is afraid that it won't be so easy for us to be let go."
