After Wen Jianmin left, Lu Chengzhou could no longer sit still.
He lit a cigarette, took a long puff, and kept pacing in the office.
Three words kept swirling in Lu Chengzhou's mind: What to do?
Wen Jianmin had already chased him to the Lishun Hotel, and it was difficult for this comrade to escape.
The most terrible thing is that Lu Chengzhou does not know this comrade and cannot contact him.
Also, Lu Chengzhou had to be on guard. This was Wen Jianmin's plot to test him.
Wen Jianmin was so embarrassed in a French park just now, why didn't he find out why?
Wen Jianmin suspected that the possibility of hitting Lu Chengzhou was low, but Lu Chengzhou had to be on guard, so he conducted routine tests.
For example, arrange a false intelligence and let everyone test it once.
People with abnormalities will surface.
Lu Chengzhou's conversation with Wen Jianmin just now was normal behavior.
If something unusual happens to him now, he will bring it upon himself.
The most correct thing for Lu Chengzhou to do now is to cooperate with Wen Jianmin and go to the Lishun Hotel to investigate the situation.
Of course, he can also report to the gendarmerie detachment.
As the director of the Intelligence Office of the Gendarmerie Detachment, this incident happened in the British Concession. He had to report it regardless of circumstances or reasons.
Report to Nakayama Ryoichi, and also take a look at the situation from the side to see if Wen Jianmin's actions are true and effective.
It was daytime now, so Lu Chengzhou couldn't go to No. 22 Kang Bonan Road, so he could only report to Zhongshan Liangyi by phone.
But before reporting, Lu Chengzhou found a public phone and dialed the emergency contact number with Yao Yimin.
"Hello, is this Mr. Mu?" Lu Chengzhou said the first code word.
"There are two Mr. Mu here, which one are you looking for?" Yao Yimin was stunned for a moment after receiving the call, and then said.
He had already memorized this password in his mind.
It can be said that I have been preparing for the call from "ant".
However, Yao Yimin didn't want "Ant" to call. Once "Ant" called, it would definitely be an emergency.
"I'm looking for Mr. Mu from Shuangmu." Lu Chengzhou said in a deep voice.
Although Yao Yimin was his superior, Lu Chengzhou still deliberately changed his voice. Coupled with the damage caused by the phone, Yao Yimin might not be able to recognize this voice even if he encountered it in the future.
"I'm Mr. Lin." Yao Yimin was finally convinced that the caller was Comrade "Ant".
"I am Ant. A comrade has just arrived in Haigu from the East Railway Station. He was discovered by the enemy near Dunqiao Road and is now forced to stay in the Lishun Hotel. The room number may be 204, 208, 306." After Lu Chengzhou finished speaking,
I renamed these three room numbers.
"Remember it." Yao Yimin recited the number silently in his mind and said solemnly.
"What alias does this comrade use?" Lu Chengzhou asked again in a low voice.
He will go to Lishun Hotel and investigate for himself.
If you can know the pseudonym used by this person in advance, you can know the room he lives in in advance.
"He will use the word 'Wan' for long live as his surname." Yao Yimin said eagerly.
"Ten thousand?" Lu Chengzhou murmured, and then hung up the phone decisively.
Then, Lu Chengzhou went to another street, found a public phone, and reported the matter to Nakayama Ryoichi.
When Lu Chengzhou came out just now, he didn't notice that he was being followed, so he called Yao Yimin in advance.
Otherwise, this call will not be made until after reporting to Nakayama Ryoichi.
Let the underground party know the news one minute earlier, maybe it can change the final outcome.
"Captain Zhongshan, I am Lu Chengzhou. Wen Jianmin's man found a suspect at the East Railway Station and followed him all the way to Lishun Hotel..." Lu Chengzhou reported to him in Japanese for the convenience of Zhongshan Liangyi.
"Who do you think he is?" Nakayama Ryoichi asked.
"I can't tell." Lu Chengzhou concluded that this person was a Communist because he went to Dunqiao Road.
There is the seat of the Haigu Municipal Party Committee and Yao Yimin's residence.
But Lu Chengzhou couldn't tell Nakayama Ryoichi about this.
"Since it is a case that happened in the British Concession, of course we have to take over it." Nakayama Ryoichi said slowly.
This is Lu Chengzhou's role in the police force. The military police unit can learn the latest developments in the British Concession immediately.
"I think so too." Lu Chengzhou said humbly.
"You continue to cooperate with Wen Jianmin, and I will handle the rest." Nakayama Ryoichi said thoughtfully.
Yao Yimin received the call from "Ant" and immediately guessed that this comrade was probably sent by the Northern Bureau.
Lili Shunli Hotel, once the North China National Liberation Congress, is now the office of the North China People's Self-Defense Committee.
The situation was urgent and Yao Yimin had no time to contact other people. He believed that Comrade "Ant" would definitely find a way to rescue this comrade.
However, he also had to be prepared.
When he went out, Yao Yimin specially brought a pistol and checked the magazine. There were only six bullets.
After Nakayama Ryoichi finished talking to Lu Chengzhou, he immediately called Takahashi Toyichi and asked him to come over immediately.
"Lu Chengzhou reported a situation. Is your injury okay?" Nakayama Ryoichi said.
"What's going on?" Takahashi Toyichi said in surprise. Seeing Nakayama Ryoichi looking at him, he added: "There's nothing wrong with my hand."
He has been secretly investigating the reasons for his failure. He believes that Liu Youjun must have obtained accurate information from the military police unit, otherwise it would be impossible to ambush him.
In other words, the military commander is very likely to have placed undercover agents in the gendarmerie detachment.
In Takahashi Yutaka's eyes, all Chinese people are very suspicious.
Among them, Lu Chengzhou was included!
"The detective team of the Special High School Division of the Police Department discovered an anti-Japanese element. He probably came to the British Concession to meet with people. He is currently staying at the Lili Shunli Hotel. I am going to let you take over this case." Nakayama Ryoichi said slowly
.
"Hi!" Takahashi Toyichi said excitedly.
Takahashi Toyichi immediately took two military policemen in civilian clothes and drove to the Lishun Hotel.
When Takahashi Toyichi arrived at the Lili Hotel, he found Lu Chengzhou in police uniform flipping through accommodation records at the front desk.
"Lu..." Takahashi Toyoichi was about to say hello to Lu Chengzhou, but suddenly he thought that this was a public place and he couldn't have too much contact with Lu Chengzhou.
"Go to room 315." Lu Chengzhou suddenly said softly as he walked past Takahashi Toyichi.
Room 315 is opened by Wen Jianmin.
Just now, Lu Chengzhou looked at the accommodation records. There were rooms 204, 208, and 306, but there was only room 204. The registered guest was a passenger named "Wan Guoxing".
However, there were no passengers named Wan in the dozen or so rooms before room 315 was registered.
In other words, this "Prosperity of All Nations" is the comrade who has just arrived in Haigu.
How to notify Yao Yimin? This question was immediately put in front of Lu Chengzhou.
At this time, it would definitely be too late to notify Yao Yimin. The only way was to issue a warning and notify Wan Guoxing.
Lu Chengzhou didn't know that Yao Yimin had already arrived at Lishun Hotel at this time, and he also saw Lu Chengzhou.
Yao Yimin was shocked when he saw Lu Chengzhou appearing at Lishun Hotel.
Lu Chengzhou is a Japanese spy. When he gets here, the Japanese spies must also be here.
Soon, Yao Yimin discovered that there were indeed many suspicious people in the hotel.
Yao Yimin couldn't check the registration book at the front desk like Lu Chengzhou did. At this time, he couldn't even enter the hotel.
After waiting anxiously outside for a while, Yao Yimin suddenly turned around and left.
Lu Chengzhou arrived in room 315 before Takahashi Toyoichi. He brought a set of patrol police uniforms and asked Wen Jianmin's men to wear them.
"Chengzhou, thank you so much." Wen Jianmin's eyes widened with a smile when he saw this police uniform.
"Who among us is following whom? Hurry up and change your clothes and go to the ward for rounds immediately." Lu Chengzhou said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'll let everyone go outside the three rooms." Wen Jianmin said proudly.
"Is this person unable to escape from your grasp again?" Lu Chengzhou said jokingly.
"Chengzhou, can you please stop talking about this in the future?" Wen Jianmin became particularly depressed when he heard the word "palm".
"Dong dong, dong dong."
When Lu Chengzhou was about to speak, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Wen Jianmin was surprised and surprised. The knock on the door did not sound like one of his own men.
When I opened the door, I saw three strangers standing there.
"Who is Wen Jianmin?" Takahashi Toyoichi spoke in less than standard Chinese.
When Wen Jianmin heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
"That's me." Wen Jianmin walked over immediately.
"I am Takahashi Toyoichi, the senior squad leader of the British Concession Military Police Detachment." Takahashi Toyoichi glanced at Wen Jianmin arrogantly.
"Captain Wen, I'm going to check the ward first." Lu Chengzhou said suddenly.
When Takahashi Toyichi and Wen Jianmin meet, they will definitely have a dispute.
"Thank you for your hard work, Officer Lu." Wen Jianmin said politely.
The arrival of Takahashi Toyichi gave Wen Jianmin a bad feeling.
"Captain Wen, I received an order that I will take over the case at hand and your people can go back." Takahashi Toyoichi also hoped that Lu Chengzhou could go to the ward to check the suspect's room early.
"Squad leader Takahashi, I did not receive such an order." Wen Jianmin heard Takahashi Toyichi's words, a despicable smile appeared on his face, but he did not want to let go of the fruit he was about to get.
"Snapped!"
Takahashi Yuichi gave Wen Jianmin a slap with his backhand. Although one of his hands was injured, there was still no problem in using the other hand to teach these lowly Chinese people a lesson.
"Baga!" Takahashi Toyichi roared angrily.
"Hi, my people can help you." Although Wen Jianmin was slapped, he did not dare to touch his face. Instead, he said respectfully in Japanese.
"We should be responsible for the British Concession case." Takahashi Toyichi's face finally softened when he heard that Kenmin could speak fluent Japanese.
"I didn't think carefully enough and didn't communicate with Monitor Gao Qiao in time. I deserve to die." Wen Jianmin said with a servile look on his face.
"Just communication is not enough." Takahashi Yuichi said coldly.
"Yes, we need to report. Things in the British Concession must be reported in time." Wen Jianmin nodded and bowed.
"Boss, are there any firecrackers?" Yao Yimin walked into a grocery store near the Lishun Hotel and asked.
