Otake Kazuto, who was intensifying the interrogation, received a call from General Kawashima in the middle of the night: "Mayor Cai was assassinated just now. You have three days to catch the murderer."
Otake Kazuto was about to say something, but General Kawashima on the other end of the phone hung up the phone without any nonsense.
He hurriedly put the interrogation aside and rushed to the hospital with Katsuda Dahe.
To solve the case in such a short time, Otake Kazuto must figure out the entire process of the assassination immediately.
After arriving at the hospital, they learned that Mayor Cai only injured his left arm, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.
He immediately arranged for people to find the bodyguards following Mayor Cai to learn about the situation.
This operation had just begun. Kawaguchi Takuya, the military police force, also rushed to the hospital and dispatched his military police to protect the hospital at all levels.
Seeing this situation, Otake Kazuto was surprised and did not sarcastically say anything. Instead, he nodded and said: "Kawaguchi Colonel, I'm afraid I need your help this time."
Kawaguchi Takuya nodded and said, "Yes, if we don't find the murderer as soon as possible, I'm afraid we won't be able to do our job."
Yes, to them, although Mayor Cai is just a Chinese, the person standing behind him is a person from the base camp.
Moreover, this man once went to the Kwantung Army headquarters to meet General Nanjiro, and it was said that the two had a very good relationship.
With the full cooperation of the Special High School Gendarmerie, a car full of bullet marks was quickly found one kilometer away from the hotel where Mayor Cai was attacked.
After inspection and identification by Mayor Cai's bodyguard, it was confirmed that it was the person driving the car who attacked Mayor Cai.
After careful inspection, Katsuda Dahe found a torn photo in the gap of the back seat of the car.
After splicing by a special person, it can be seen that this is a photo of Mayor Cai, and there is a line of words behind the photo.
Because the fragments are not complete, the words are intermittent, but we can still tell that someone is driving out and Mayor Cai's travel route, please ask someone to move.
Looking at the handwriting, Katsuda Dahe felt a little familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen such handwriting.
At the same time, the gendarmerie was searching the whole city, and all those who did not return home at midnight were taken to the gendarmerie prison.
At dawn, news came from the hospital that Mayor Cai's injuries were not serious. Detective team captain Chen Feng led his men to protect Mayor Cai and go home to rest.
Hearing Chen Feng's name, Katsuda Oga seemed to have thought of something, and whispered something in Otake Kazuto's ear.
Otake Kazuto thought for a while and immediately said: "Go back and investigate as soon as possible. Once confirmed, arrest him immediately."
Katsuda Taiga returned to the Special High School Course and immediately called in all the documents that Chen Feng had written and the words that had been signed. After comparison, it was basically confirmed that this was Chen Feng's handwriting.
He immediately led his men to arrest Chen Feng in front of Mayor Cai's residence.
Mayor Cai asked with some confusion: "Why are you arresting people in front of my official residence?"
Taiga Katsuda had long expected such a situation, so he called Mayor Cai aside and said softly: "Your Excellency, Mayor, please take a look at this."
Looking at the documents in Katsuda Taiga's hand, Mayor Cai hesitated for a moment and said, "Now that your special high school class has been confirmed, let's arrest people. I'm tired and need to rest."
"Mr. Mayor, have a good rest."
When Chen Feng saw this situation, he shouted anxiously: "Why do you arrest me?"
Katsuda Taihe looked at him and said contemptuously: "Captain Chen, you are suspected of murdering the mayor, it is better to come with us."
Hearing this, Chen Feng struggled to break away. He knew that if he was caught in the extra-high school class like this, he might never be able to get out again.
There were several members of the detective team around who wanted to rush to save him, but were shot to death by people from the Special High School Class.
When Ozu Kazuto heard that Chen Feng had been captured, he immediately ordered: "Search the place where Chen Feng lives and where he works."
Katsuda Dahe and his people began to conduct a detailed and careful search of these two places.
The office only found some confidential documents that only the Japanese could know. These documents alone were enough to make Chen Feng die without a burial place.
In particular, the ins and outs of the cases involving the death of several government officials were written down in the documents searched.
After seeing these documents, Ozu Kazuto realized that it turned out that Chen Feng had been using them as a knife to eliminate those officials who blocked his path.
However, the search at Chen Feng's home did not go smoothly. Two safes were found, which contained only money and some documents.
It contained information about cigarettes or other smuggled items, but he didn't find what he wanted.
Just as Katsuda Dahe and others were preparing to leave, a member of the Special High School Course suddenly ran over and reported: "Report, a hidden safe was found."
There was a hint of surprise on Katsuda Dahe's face, and he immediately led people to the study room on the second floor. The bookshelf in the study room had been moved, revealing a well-hidden safe.
He immediately ordered someone to open the safe, and when he looked at the information inside, a radio station, and a code book, he had an expression of ecstasy on his face.
After returning to the Special High School, he handed it all in. After technical inspection, it was found that this radio station was the one that had disappeared for two months and suddenly started up last night.
The messages were all deciphered through the code book.
Looking at the above plan, Otake Kazuto felt his scalp was numb and hurriedly reported the matter to General Kawashima, who then relayed it to Mayor Cai.
It turns out that the telegram said that the plan to kill with a borrowed knife had been launched. Now by assassinating Mayor Cai, he obtained Mayor Cai's support and successfully took up the position of secretary of the municipal government.
Soon, Kazuto Otake of the Special High School received a call from Mayor Cai. He had only one sentence, and that was: "Such a wolf-hearted person does not deserve to live in the world."
After entering the special high school course, Chen Feng kept shouting that he was wronged.
Seeing Dazhu and others approaching, he hurriedly said: "Section Chief Dazhu, you know me, I helped you kill so many Anti-Japanese Alliance people."
Ozu Kazuto snorted coldly and said, "Yes, I really didn't expect that in order to gain our trust, you would betray so many people."
After saying that, he glanced at Katsuda Taiga and said: "Let's do it and let him know the consequences of deceiving the Japanese Imperial Army."
Katsuda Dahe nodded, took out a slightly red reagent bottle with his gloved hand, and poured it directly into Chen Feng's mouth.
After Chen Feng struggled twice, he passed out.
Otake Kazuto said coldly: "Inform Yamaguchi-kun and ask him to transport the wood."
Katsuda Dahe nodded, ran out, and called Yamaguchi...
