Zhao Shuli lit a match and lit a cigarette for himself.
He is not used to using lighters, but he still likes to use foreign fires.
Mr. Xiao Cheng glanced at Inspector Zhao, took out his gold lighter, and lit the cigarette in his mouth.
He took a sip of cigarette.
Through the smoke that was sprayed, Cheng Qianfan seemed to have seen the scene where he met Fei Ming for the first time.
He and Fei Ming are not familiar with each other.
That was when he went to Xiafei Police Station to do business and saw Lu Dazhang scolding a young policeman.
Seeing that the boy was scolded for being dirty and said something casually, Lu Dazhang waved his hand and drove Fei Ming away.
At that time, he asked Lu Dazhang what mistakes did that kid make.
Lu Dazhang said that Fei Ming’s checkpoint was leaked.
His exploratory eyes looked at Lu Dazhang.
Lu Dazhang shook his head.
Now that I think about it, although Fei Ming was secretly doing something to help the anti-Japanese war at that time, he probably hadn't joined our party yet.
Cheng Qianfan knew that Zhao Shuli should have just returned from a secret meeting with comrades from the New Fourth Army, and did not know what happened in the police station.
...
Cheng Qianfan told Zhao Shuli about Fei Ming.
"It was my estimation error." Cheng Qianfan said, "If I delay for a while, Fei Ming should be able to successfully evacuate."
Zhao Shuli shook his head, "If you delay time, you will have doubts."
He sighed, "This comrade chose to shoot in the street to get rid of the postman, and he was ready to sacrifice himself."
As he said that, he showed a puzzled expression, "What's going on with the postman?"
"The postman followed the comrades who went to the bank to withdraw money." Cheng Qianfan said, "Our comrades were unable to detect the postman in time. The comrades in charge of protection found that there was something wrong with the postman."
"Fei Ming?" Zhao Shuli asked.
"I don't know." Cheng Qianfan shook his head.
He understood that what Zhao Shuli asked was whether Fei Ming was the comrade in charge of protection.
Cheng Qianfan was not sure about the specific situation. He received a code warning call, just informing the postman in Xiafei District that there was a problem. As for the source of the information, the other party did not say it, and he could not mention it on the phone.
With a cruel and complex struggle situation, the living people don’t even have much time to sad for the sacrificed comrades.
...
The two of them calmed down their sadness.
"Have you met Boss Huang?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Yes, I talked to Boss Huang about the transportation of this batch of goods." Zhao Shuli nodded and said.
He briefly reported to Cheng Qianfan what he had about his communication.
"Now there is a chance." Cheng Qianfan said, "The Japanese suspect that the New Fourth Army has entered Umemura, and their intelligence sources are not smooth, so Yuichi Oda found me."
"The Japanese want to inquire about information through the Jiujiu Trading Company?" Zhao Shuli immediately guessed Yuichi Oda's intention.
"That's right." Cheng Qianfan said, "I thought about it carefully. This is an opportunity we can take advantage of."
"It's really timely rain in the Japanese." Zhao Shuli said excitedly.
"Let me tell you about the plan I envisioned." Cheng Qianfan talked to Zhao Shuli about his preliminary plans.
"These are two lines, one light and one dark." After hearing this, Zhao Shuli thought for a moment and showed admiration. "The light lines are used to attract the attention of the Japanese, while the dark lines are hidden in Chen Cang."
"What I worry about is the bright line." Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly, "This bright line is responsible for attracting the attention of the Japanese. Because of this, we must find ways to protect the safety of the bright line."
Cheng Qianfan sighed softly, "There are too many comrades who have sacrificed recently. We are not afraid of sacrifice, but we do not sacrifice lightly."
"In this case, then the choice of this bright line needs to be considered very much." Zhao Shuli said thoughtfully.
"What do you mean?" Cheng Qianfan said, smoking a cigarette.
"It is best to attract the attention of the Japanese and traitors, but not enough to attract the enemy's attacks." Zhao Shuli said.
He blew up the ashes, "It is probably that before the Japanese take action, they will think that it is unnecessary to take action against this target, but will cause trouble and affect their mission."
"That's right." A hint of spirit flashed in Cheng Qianfan's eyes, "A person who will attract the attention of the Japanese, but compared with their mission on this trip will make them feel that the goal is not worth much. Such a candidate."
Cheng Qianfan frowned and thought for a while, but he laughed first.
"Forget it, let the candidates for the bright line be decided by the organization." Cheng Qianfan said.
The French Concession Special Party Branch only cooperated with the Shanghai Party Organization. The specific action of transporting materials was done by the Shanghai Party Organization and the comrades of the New Fourth Army.
Zhao Shuli nodded deeply because he should pay special attention to the requirements of security and confidentiality. The French Concession's special party branches have limited personnel that can be used and trusted. In comparison, there are more personnel to choose from in Shanghai local party organizations.
"In addition, I thought about Fei Ming's murder." Zhao Shuli said, "If you have to say that Fei Ming's sacrifice can be avoided, then the problem lies with one person."
"Bigou Lu?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a gloomy face.
"Yes." Zhao Shuli said, "Lu Hu had long been in favour of the Japanese and was determined to be a traitor. If Lu Jiu turned around and arrested Fei Ming today, Fei Ming might have a chance to escape."
Cheng Qianfan was silent.
He understood what Zhao Shuli meant.
Lu Hu was determined to be a traitor. Although Lu Hu didn't know Fei Ming's identity, since Fei Ming was the target Li Cuiqun's people were going to catch, Fei Ming must be engaged in anti-Japanese work.
In this way, Lu Hu must have worked very hard to capture Fei Ming.
But if it was Lu Jiuyi, the situation would change slightly.
According to their observation, Lu Jiu had no political tendency to fall, and this person had to know everything about food and cattle, and had a lot of contact with all the religions and other abilities. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a bad police officer.
However, in terms of attitude towards the Japanese, Lu Jiu clearly adopted the attitude of not expressing his opinion and never saying bad things about the Japanese.
However, Cheng Qianfan had long noticed that when Lu Jiufen faced the anti-Japanese elements, he would secretly let him go.
Of course, Lu Jiufan was on the premise that he could protect himself.
As for the arrest of Fei Ming, an experienced veteran inspector like Lu Jiufan can delay the arrest for seven or eight minutes or even a quarter of an hour without leaking water.
In this quarter of an hour, Fei Ming had probably successfully boarded the ship and evacuated.
...
Cheng Qianfan's silence was because he heard the complaints in Zhao Shuli's words.
Perhaps it is not a complaint, it is just a review and analysis and suggestions.
However, in Cheng Qianfan, who felt guilty, he would feel a little complaint.
Or in other words, he hopes to complain, so that he will feel a little more comfortable.
This is a very contradictory emotion and psychology.
Comrade Cheng Qianfan, who has excellent abilities and has been tested for a long time, and Comrade Cheng Qianfan, secretary of the French Concession's special party branch, is a very cautious, calm and courageous person.
However, at the same time, he is also a person with a high nerve sensitivity, a person who is strong inside and strong to the extreme, but instead has an inexplicably weak person.
However, Cheng Qianfan did not realize this, just because his ultimate strength and weakness would only be reflected in Ruolan's side.
The sensitivity and guilt he shows now.
His guilt and sensitivity would interpret external words as similar, for example, he would now interpret Zhao Shuli's words as having a complaint.
This will not make him angry, but will have more recognition in his heart.
Yes, I could have done better.
He is so contradictory, sensitive, but can maintain a high degree of calmness. To some extent, this calmness seems so cold-blooded:
The biggest contradiction here is that Cheng Qianfan knew very clearly in his mind.
What he knew was that from Zhao Shuli's perspective, he could arrange for Lu Jiu to arrest Fei Ming instead of arranged for Datou Lu, which was the best choice.
However, Cheng Qianfan knew that he could only arrange for Datou Lu to carry out this arrest mission.
Zhao Shuri didn't know that Cheng Qianfan had a special hidden identity with Kentaro Miyazaki.
This identity determines that when Cheng Qianfan ordered the secret arrest of Fei Ming, he would immediately choose to secretly surrender to the Japanese big head Lu, rather than Lu Jiufan and others.
In other words, Cheng Qianfan chose to arrange for Datou Lu to arrest people, but in fact he was watching Araki Bomi and even Sanbenjilang and others.
Everything he did seemed to be nothing, but in fact everything was carefully considered.
This is not a careful consideration, because there is no time to think carefully, but this kind of preparation and attention to every detail has become a subconscious behavior and is engraved in his mind.
This is a cruel and extremely calm based on the extreme pain that outsiders cannot feel.
Under this calmness, Cheng Qianfan had an almost crazy recognition of his sensitivity and guilt in his heart—
This will make him feel that his blood is hot and he will not go crazy.
...
Seeing Cheng Qianfan's silence, Zhao Shuli thought that Comrade "Flame" was considering the feasibility of eliminating Datou Lu and its possible impact.
"Maybe it was the bystander clear." Zhao Shuli said, "My suggestion is that Lu Hu must be eliminated, and as soon as possible."
Cheng Qianfan nodded and signaled to comrade "Abacus" to continue.
"You are still the commander of the third inspector. The purpose is to control these old subordinates and to provide us with some convenience in secret." Zhao Shuli said.
He blew up the ashes, "The current situation is that Lu Hu's existence has caused problems within the third patrol, and if there is an emergency."
"Similar to today's situation." He glanced at Cheng Qianfan and said.
Cheng Qianfan was silent.
"The existence of Lu Hu will add a lot of variables." Zhao Shuli said, "So, I insist that Lu Hu must be eliminated."
He paused for a moment, looked at Cheng Qianfan with a solemn expression and said, "Secretary Cheng, I officially put forward my personal suggestions to the Party branch to eliminate the traitor Lu Hu."
Cheng Qianfan put out the cigarette butt and faced Zhao Shuli's serious gaze, he nodded slowly, "I received your suggestion, I will consider it carefully."
Zhao Shuli nodded and said nothing more.
Although he didn't understand why Comrade Firefox was hesitant about this matter, he believed that Comrade Firefox said that it should be considered carefully, and there should be his reason.
In addition, he also believed that Cheng Qianfan would eventually support his insisted on getting rid of Lu Hu, because no matter from any perspective, Lu Hu's cancer has reached the point where he has to get rid of it.
However, Zhao Shuli inevitably felt some emotions in his heart, and he felt that Comrade "Flame" was a little cold-blooded.
For this cold-blooded, he knew that he was an excellent lurker, a qualities that an excellent leader must possess, which he could understand but could not completely let go.
...
At this moment, the phone ringing on the desk rang.
Cheng Qianfan picked up the receiver.
"I am Cheng Qianfan."
"Senior brother, it's me."
Hearing the sound on the other end of the phone, Cheng Qianfan covered the microphone and vomited a lip at Zhao Shuli, and then he said, "It turns out that it is the senior. The senior is calling. I wonder what to do?"
No. 76, Jisifeier Road.
Li Cuiqun looked at his subordinates who were busy handling documents and files, covered his microphone and told him to be careful.
Li Cuiqun and Dingmutun have always been not satisfied with No. 67 Daxi Road, where the agency is located.
Now, the Japanese allocated the building No. 76, Jisifei Road to them for use.
This place will also become the latest headquarters of their secret service.
Li Cuiqun frowned when he heard Cheng Qianfan's sarcastic spirit on the other end of the phone.
Li Cuiqun was furious when he learned that his subordinate Dong Zhengguo's troops were ordered to be disarmed and arrested by Cheng Qianfan.
Later, when he learned that Cheng Qianfan had arranged for his subordinates to escort Dong Zhengguo and his group of people across the market, he was like parading the streets, which made Li Cuiqun even more angry.
However, just a few minutes ago, he learned that Cheng Qianfan's subordinates had quietly handed Dong Zhengguo and others to the Foreign Liaison Office of the Political Department of the French Concession.
This is because there is no intention to continue to detain, it is because it is about to be released.
In this way, Li Cuiqun's anger finally subsided.
He then called Cheng Qianfan's office:
Don’t think it’s enough to let him go. I have to give him an explanation for this matter.
However, he did not expect that Cheng Qianfan not only did not avenge the crime but explained, but instead spoke with a gun and a stick.
...
"Why did Mr. Li dare to send Vice President Cheng?" Li Cuiqun sneered, "After Vice President Cheng gave the order, he could capture my subordinates and parade the streets."
As he said that, Li Cuiqun snorted coldly, "No one in the French Concession knows the power of 'Ziao Cheng'."
At this time, Li Cuiqun was no longer the case where he had just arrived at Shanghai. He only had three or two kittens in his hand, and the only bodyguard Zhang Lu under the gun was the only one.
Just before, when Wang Baihai had just arrived in Shanghai, Li Cuiqun and Dingmutun boarded the "Beiguang Wan" and "visited" Wang Baihai under the recommendation of Zhou Liang.
In Cymute Tun, Li Cuiqun proposed to Wang Baihai that he was willing to surrender his agents to the Wang family:
Wang Baihai's new regime recognized Ding and Li's secret police as the new regime's secret police and established the General Headquarters of the Special Services.
In addition, if the new regime is established, the Wang family will leave several important positions such as the Minister of the Interior, the Mayor of Shanghai, and the Governor of Jiangsu to them.
Faced with their asking price, the Wang characters looked at each other in anger, and Wang Baihai was even more angry.
This meeting was a bit unhappy.
As the saying goes, asking for a price based on the sky and bargaining on the ground, the two sides finally reached a consensus after several contacts.
Wang Baihai personally replied to Cymute Tun and Li Cuiqun:
Agree to establish a special agent headquarters.
The funding of the agent headquarters has been negotiated with the Japanese representative of the Japanese side, Akira Takashi, and will definitely satisfy them.
However, the position of mayor of Shanghai and governor of Jiangsu Province cannot be given to your department, because Jiangsu Province and Shanghai are the foundation of the peace movement, and the work of the Minister of the Interior to wait for the position is very wide, so it is difficult for the public to accept that agents will hold this important position.
However, the administrative responsibilities of the police of the Ministry of the Interior can be handed over to the secret service headquarters, and the details can be discussed in detail.
After several days of discussion, Li Cuiqun finally agreed to Wang Baihai’s reply.
In this way, Ding and Li's secret service officially merged with the Wang Baihai faction.
And just as they agreed to formally surrender to Wang Baihai, Wang gave the sweetness:
After Wang expressed his importance to the power of the secret service in Ding and Li's hands to the Japanese (this was a message deliberately revealed by Zhou Liang to Dingmutun and Li Cuiqun. Of course, Li Cuiqun did not fully believe it in his heart, but he also admitted that Wang should have contributed behind the scenes). The Japanese seemed to have also attached importance to the upcoming official headquarters and allocated No. 76, Jisifeier Road to them for use.
It can be said that Li Cuiqun is in a good mood and full of energy now.
Therefore, facing the sarcastic aura of Cheng Qianfan, Li Cuiqun was not patient, but directly retorted.
