When Zhang Sichang was attacked and injured outside his residence, Lu Chengzhou reported to Kawasaki Hiroshi through the dead mailbox in the French Concession during the day.
After receiving Lu Chengzhou's report, Kawasaki Hiro was also stunned.
He didn't care whether Zhang Sichang was robbed, but what he cared about was the location where Zhang Sichang was robbed.
It's right opposite Lu Chengzhou's residence. Is it really such a coincidence?
Zhang Sichang is from Nozaki, could it be Nozaki, and what thoughts does he have about Lu Chengzhou?
"Nozaki-kun, was Zhang Sichang arranged by you?" Kawasaki Hiro went straight to the Nozaki Mansion after getting the information from Lu Chengzhou.
"Not bad." Nozaki had just returned from the British Concession, and he also had questions in his mind.
"Lu Chengzhou is loyal to the Japanese Empire, why would he do this?" Kawasaki Hiro asked angrily.
There is an old Chinese saying: Don't trust people when you use them, and don't use people when you doubt them.
Lu Chengzhou thought it made sense. Since he used Lu Chengzhou, he had to trust him.
Moreover, Lu Chengzhou has served the Japanese secret service for more than two years.
"Don't trust any Chinese. Wasn't that a special reminder from Kawasaki-kun at the beginning?" Nozaki said calmly.
"Lu Chengzhou is not what he used to be. If he finds out, wouldn't it be a chill to his heart?" Kawasaki Hiro said seriously.
"Don't you think he already knows?" Nozaki said coldly.
Apart from the fact that he had no evidence, he was almost certain that Lu Chengzhou had already discovered that he was being watched.
"This is inevitable. Lu Chengzhou has received professional training and has just been monitored by the military commander. He is always on tenterhooks. At this time, if you send someone to monitor, if it is a professional spy, send it. Send a Zhang Sichang, can you not be discovered?
?" Kawasaki Hiroshi said angrily.
"Did Lu Chengzhou say this himself?" Nozaki asked.
"Lu Chengzhou is my student. I know very well what kind of abilities he has. As for his loyalty to the Japanese Empire, I guarantee that there will be no problem!" Kawasaki Hiroshi said firmly.
Although Lu Chengzhou was refrigerated by the military commander, he could be activated at any time.
Lu Chengzhou also served as an inspector in the British Concession, which is enough to prove Lu Chengzhou's ability.
Moreover, the higher Lu Chengzhou's position is, the better he will be able to cooperate with Japanese secret service operations in the future.
As the Hebei-Cha Government Affairs Committee and the Japanese government cooperated more and more, various anti-Japanese groups eventually had to enter the concession to survive.
The British and French Concessions were the best soil for anti-Japanese groups to survive.
Lu Chengzhou serves as an inspector in the British Concession Police Department, which will be very beneficial to the Japanese secret service's operations against anti-Japanese groups.
"I'm just doing a routine inspection." Nozaki didn't really doubt Lu Chengzhou, this was just a way for him to supervise the Chinese.
"Let's do this. I will meet with him tonight. I hope you can explain this matter to him face to face." Kawasaki Hiroshi said.
As an undercover agent, the saddest thing is not the constant danger, but the distrust of the organization.
"Okay." Nozaki said.
One of the main tasks of the Nozaki Mansion is to collect information on each concession.
The greater Lu Chengzhou's energy, the more important it is to him.
However, Nozaki became increasingly worried about Lu Chengzhou's loyalty.
The stronger the ability, the more difficult it is to control.
It is undeniable that Lu Chengzhou was indeed loyal to the Japanese secret service.
However, who can guarantee that Lu Chengzhou will still be the same today?
After Lu Chengzhou went to work, he sent someone to call Han Fushan to the office.
After becoming an inspector, Lu Chengzhou moved into the old office of Ruan Jiangong.
This office can't be called luxurious, but it is independent and convenient for Lu Chengzhou to discuss work with his subordinates.
"Last night, a vicious robbery occurred near No. 15, No. 24 Road. There were at least three culprits. You must concentrate on apprehending the culprits," Lu Chengzhou ordered.
"Who is the victim?" Han Fushan asked. He is now the patrolman of No. 24 Road. A robbery has occurred, so of course he is obliged to do so.
"The victim did not report the crime, but it is our duty to maintain public order. The case occurred on Road 24. As the inspector, I hope you can solve the case as soon as possible." Lu Chengzhou said seriously.
"Searching, how can we investigate if there are no victims?" Han Fushan said awkwardly.
"There is a time, a place, and the victim's testimony. Do you want me to bring the criminal in front of you to know how to investigate?" Lu Chengzhou said coldly.
"I don't dare." Han Fushan shrank his neck.
The first level of official rank is overwhelming, not to mention that Lu Chengzhou is two levels higher than him.
Since Lu Chengzhou confessed, no matter whether there are victims or not, we must investigate.
Moreover, according to Lu Chengzhou's future attitude, he will have to hand over the "criminal".
Not long after Han Fushan left, Wang Siguang slipped into Lu Chengzhou's office.
"My seat, are you satisfied with how things are done?" Wang Siguang asked with a smile.
Yes, what happened last night was arranged by Lu Chengyi and Wang Siguang carried out the specific operations.
Let alone Han Fushan, Zhang Sichang's case cannot be investigated. Even if it is handed over to the detective unit, it may not be possible to solve it.
"Let's talk about this later." Lu Chengzhou winked at him. How could he talk about this kind of thing in the office?
Lu Chengzhou and Wang Siguang went to Kang Bonan Road. On the way, Lu Chengzhou asked about the treatment of those people.
Things were done beautifully, Zhang Sichang had no suspicion at all, and even burst into tears of gratitude to Lu Chengzhou.
Last night, listening to Zhang Sichang's sincere thanks and seeing the miserable way he was beaten, Lu Chengzhou felt a little bit unbearable.
Zhang Sichang must be taught a lesson, otherwise he will be under surveillance every day and it will be extremely annoying.
Lu Chengzhou estimated that although Zhang Sichang couldn't see his thoughts, the people behind him should understand.
Lu Chengzhou didn't know whether it was Hiroshi Kawasaki or Nozaki who instigated Zhang Sichang to spy on him.
No matter who it was, Lu Chengzhou was secretly alert, and he had to be extra careful recently.
Perhaps the Japanese did not doubt him, but were just worried about whether he was still as loyal as before.
Lu Chengzhou needed a chance to show his sincerity to them.
Zhang Sichang was robbed, but Lu Chengzhou expressed his dissatisfaction.
No matter what the Japanese think, he cannot accept being monitored.
Lu Chengzhou was under surveillance by the military commander before, and he was already suffocating. If he was under surveillance by the Japanese again, would he still want to live?
Lu Chengzhou must clearly express his attitude, and Zhang Sichang's robbery was one of his means of expression.
Now, what Lu Chengzhou has to worry about is Wang Siguang's arrangements for the aftermath.
"Please rest assured, inspector, they usually don't move around the British Concession very much. I told them not to come to the British Concession for at least three months." Wang Siguang said with a smile.
The fact that Lu Chengzhou could arrange for him to do such secretive things showed that he already trusted him a lot.
It is the dream of many subordinates to share a secret with their boss.
"Okay." Lu Chengzhou nodded with satisfaction.
He will put enough pressure on Han Fushan to hand over the murderer within a month.
With Han Fushan's sophistication, even if he couldn't solve the case, he would still find someone to take the blame.
As an inspector, Lu Chengzhou no longer needs to patrol the streets every day.
However, Lu Chengzhou was newly appointed as an inspector. In addition, he still lacked a deputy inspector. He would still go around Liutiao Street every day.
He rides a bicycle and can go around faster.
As the area under his jurisdiction increased, the secret codes for his contact with Li Xiangxue and Liu Youjun became more subtle.
For example, Lu Chengzhou asked Li Xiangxue to set up a secret communication signal on a telephone pole or fence on Route 25.
As for Route 26, it will be handed over to Liu Youjun.
From now on, Route 27 will be used by Hiroshi Kawasaki.
Yesterday afternoon, Li Xiangxue actually discovered the secret code for the meeting, but Lu Chengzhou did not respond.
He was being monitored by Zhang Sichang and did not want to bring danger to Li Xiangxue.
Today, Lu Chengzhou stopped his car and smoked a cigarette near a telephone pole on Road 25. By the way, he erased half of the code left by Li Xiangxue.
If Li Xiangxue sees it, he will know that Lu Chengzhou can meet with him tonight.
Just as Lu Chengzhou was about to go back, he saw the secret code Hiroshi Kawasaki left for him on Route 24, requesting a meeting.
Lu Chengzhou met Kawasaki Hiroshi at the house at No. 22 Kang Bonan Road.
Normally, Lu Chengzhou would meet with Kawasaki Hiroshi only at night, but today Kawasaki Hiroshi added a five-pointed star after his code, which was a request to meet immediately.
Lu Chengzhou was secretly surprised, what kind of evil are the Japanese planning to cause?
No matter what, he still had to go to Kawasaki Hiroshi to meet him immediately.
Riding a bicycle makes Lu Chengzhou's movements very convenient.
When he arrived at the back door of No. 22 Cumberland Road, seeing no one around him, he moved his bicycle into the backyard. As soon as the door was closed, he seemed to have disappeared.
Seeing Kawasaki Hiroshi and Nozaki also appearing, Lu Chengzhou was startled.
"Mr. Lu, I have asked you to come here today for only one thing. Regarding Zhang Sichang's surveillance of you, this is a routine inspection. I hope you don't mind." Kawasaki Hiroshi said straightforwardly.
"I can accept any form of inspection at any time." Lu Chengzhou said hurriedly.
"Mr. Lu, I want to solemnly apologize to you. Your loyalty to the empire should not be doubted. Zhang Sichang was arranged by me, and he deserves his own fault for his current fate." Nozaki said sincerely.
"There is an old saying in China that true gold is not afraid of fire. I am willing to accept inspection by anyone at any time and in any form. Of course, the premise is that it does not affect my mission." Lu Chengzhou vowed.
"In order to hide, Mr. Lu needs to interact with some anti-Japanese people. If he is seen by people who don't know the truth, they will suspect that he has other intentions." Kawasaki Hiro explained.
"Mr. Lu's generosity and loyalty to the Japanese Empire make me ashamed." Nozaki bowed to Lu Chengzhou and said sincerely.
"Now that we've talked about it, the misunderstanding has been eliminated. Let's go in and have a drink." Kawasaki Hiro said with a smile.
"Mr. Lu, there is one more thing I want to ask you. In the future, if you have the opportunity, please pay a visit to Zhang Sichang." Nozaki added.
"I am willing to serve Mr. Nozaki." Lu Chengzhou said politely.
Nozaki didn't ask about Zhang Sichang's robbery, and Lu Chengzhou didn't tell the whole story.
However, after Nozaki left early, Lu Chengzhou reported to Kawasaki Hiroshi in detail.
Including that he asked Wang Siguang to find someone to do something, and then told them not to come to the British Concession.
"You did a good job." Kawasaki Hiro said with a look of relief after listening to Lu Chengzhou's report.
