The clerk at the grocery store where Yao Yimin bought firecrackers hung around Dunqiao Road all day long.
Two yuan a day, food and lodging included, and I found someone who still had a hundred yuan left. Of course he was very motivated.
There was no need for Miyamoto Kiyoshi and Kaida Shinichiro to supervise. The clerk ran to the street alone and carefully checked everyone.
As a grocery store clerk, I have to meet many people every day and I am very sensitive to human faces.
Coupled with the stimulation of money, he has a deep memory of Yao Yimin who bought firecrackers.
If the Japanese did not find him, maybe after three to five days, he would no longer be able to remember what the person who bought the firecrackers looked like.
This morning, he saw Yao Yimin walking into Fushun Lane, Dunqiao Road, and immediately ran to tell Miyamoto Kiyoshi.
However, when Miyamoto Kiyoshi returned to Fushunli, Yao Yimin was nowhere to be found.
Miyamoto Kiyoshi asked Zhao Bin and Li Jiping to guard the east end, while his assistant and Kaida Shinichiro guard the west end, while he went to find Lu Chengzhou.
Not long after Miyamoto Kiyoshi came back, a bicycle rushed over and knocked Miyamoto Kiyoshi to the ground.
Miyamoto Kiyoshi was angry at that time. As a Japanese military policeman, he had never suffered such a big loss. His backhand was just a slap.
As a result, the young man riding the bicycle was not someone to be trifled with, and the two started to have a big argument at the entrance of the alley.
When Miyamoto Kiyoshi opened his mouth, his strong Japanese accent was immediately heard.
After the young man heard that Miyamoto Kiyoshi had a Japanese accent, the quarrel immediately turned into a fight. In anger, Miyamoto Kiyoshi took out his pistol and shot the young man twice.
These two shots completely exposed Miyamoto Kiyoshi's identity, and at the same time, his mission completely failed.
"Why can't you just give in?" Lu Chengzhou said with regret.
"It's too late to regret now." Shinichiro Kaida sighed.
He was also at the scene at the time, and things happened so quickly that before he could even try to persuade her, the two of them were already wrestling with each other.
"Where's that guy?" Lu Chengzhou asked.
"We've already sent him back to the hotel, it's nearby." Shinichiro Kaida said.
In order to make it easier to find people, they arranged for the clerk to stay in a small hotel on Dunbridge Road.
"Have you reported this matter to Squad Leader Gaoqiao and Captain Zhongshan?" Lu Chengzhou asked suddenly.
"No, this matter must be reported immediately to Squad Leader Gao Qiao, or directly to Captain Zhongshan." Lu Chengzhou said decisively.
"Can we find the suspect first and then report?" Shinichiro Kaida said hesitantly.
He also knew that he made a mistake today and let go of an important CCP suspect.
If Han had caught the suspect, would they have the nerve to go back?
Thinking about the fingerprints on Takahashi Toyichi's face a few days ago, Shinichiro Kaida shuddered.
"Haitian-kun, report first and then arrest people. This is a rule. If there is an accident, deliberately concealing it is the same as betrayal." Lu Chengzhou said firmly.
He used the phone in the cafe to call the gendarmerie detachment.
The call went directly to Nakayama Ryoichi's office. Lu Chengzhou said in Chinese: "Mr. Feng, there was news about a Japanese agent shooting a Chinese man on Dunqiao Road. Are you interested?"
"Of course, wherever you are, I will come right away." Nakayama Ryoichi used to use the pseudonym Feng Mingde.
Nakayama Ryoichi's car suddenly stopped in front of the cafe. The loud braking sound made the pedestrians on the street look sideways.
Nakayama Ryoichi, wearing a suit, stepped out of the cab. When he walked into the cafe, he happened to see Lu Chengzhou stand up.
"What's going on?" Nakayama Ryoichi asked in a low voice after sitting down.
Lu Chengzhou quickly reported what happened to him in a low voice. Lu Chengzhou's meaning was very obvious. If there really was a CCP suspect living in Fushun Lane, Dunqiao Road, he would have left long ago.
"Baga!" Nakayama Ryoichi slammed the table and roared in a low voice.
Miyamoto Kiyoshi and Kaida Shinichiro, these two stupid pigs, missed such a good opportunity in vain.
If Lu Chengzhou hadn't reported it in time, I'm afraid he wouldn't know the truth by night.
Zhongshan Liangyi immediately decided that Lu Chengzhou would borrow two patrol officers from Wen Jingzai, and then take the grocery store clerk to carefully search Fushun Lane on Dunqiao Road.
Miyamoto Kiyoshi has disappeared because he killed someone. Zhao Bin and Li Jiping of the detective team, as well as Kaida Shinichiro, are all nearby to cooperate with Lu Chengzhou.
However, after searching the entire Fushunli, the man who bought firecrackers could not be found.
However, there are three households in Fushun where no one is home, including No. 12.
This made Lu Chengzhou feel a little relieved. At least, the municipal party committee was safe now.
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers. Here's some tea money." Lu Chengzhou gave each of the two patrol officers a five-yuan French currency.
Although nothing was gained, the money cannot be saved.
There was no result, and Nakayama Ryoichi's expression had already changed.
"Mr. Lu, thank you very much." When Nakayama Liangyi left, he still held Lu Chengzhou's hand and said politely.
Although he had his heart set on killing Miyamoto Kiyoshi, he still had to keep a certain distance from Lu Chengzhou in front of outsiders.
If the outside world knew that Lu Chengzhou was actually from the military police unit, it would cause invisible resistance to Lu Chengzhou's work.
"It should be." Lu Chengzhou said humbly.
"You two, are you still prepared to guard here?" Lu Chengzhou asked with a smile after Zhongshan Liangyi left.
"We won't worry about Officer Lu anymore, please do as you please." Zhao Bin said respectfully.
Lu Chengzhou and Wen Jianmin were classmates and police officers of the police department. Matters concerning the British Concession must be brought to his head.
Moreover, the relationship between Lu Chengzhou and Nakayama Ryoichi seems to be extraordinary.
No wonder Lu Chengzhou could straighten his back in front of Wen Jianmin. It turned out that someone was supporting him.
Lu Chengzhou used to change into casual clothes and go home, but today he had no choice but to go home first.
When passing by the death mailbox with Yao Yimin, Lu Chengzhou felt an inexplicable sadness.
When with Japanese agents, Lu Chengzhou could not show any sad emotions.
Until now, he was riding his bicycle alone, and the time he returned home was his alone.
However, he couldn't show any expression on his face. No matter how sad he was, he could only keep it in his heart.
The wind blew on Lu Chengzhou's face, making him numb.
As a lurker, his emotions must be controllable.
Others' joys and sorrows can be written on their faces, but Lu Chengzhou can only bury them in his heart.
What kind of hard work, what kind of emotions are needed, what kind of expression must be on his face, Lu Chengzhou must show what kind of expression and show the corresponding emotion.
Although Jiang Zhiyuan and him only met today, Lu Chengzhou had already regarded him as his closest comrade-in-arms.
Jiang Zhiyuan is also a graduate of Railway No. 1 Middle School. He participated in the anti-Japanese demonstrations on 1218 and 528. He joined the Communist Party of China as early as the year before last.
Because he is a calm person, he was appointed as the traffic officer of "Ant".
This work is boring, but extremely glorious.
In order to do this job well, Jiang Zhiyuan was almost isolated from the outside world.
It is difficult for ordinary people to persevere, but Jiang Zhiyuan not only did it, but also took on the task of "monitoring" Lu Chengzhou.
Lu Chengzhou was extremely saddened by Jiang Zhiyuan's sacrifice.
It wasn't until he got home that he showed a sad expression on his face.
However, after changing his clothes, Lu Chengzhou calmed himself down quickly before opening the door.
It is a luxury to have a few minutes to express true emotions.
"Mr. Lu..."
As soon as Lu Chengzhou came out carrying his bicycle, he heard Zhang Guanglin's voice.
"Why are you here?" Lu Chengzhou asked in surprise.
"I came here specifically to tell you that today I rented No. 20 Kang Bo South Road. A hole has been drilled in the wall. You can enter and exit from No. 20." Zhang Guanglin said respectfully.
"I'm interested." Lu Chengzhou glanced at Zhang Guanglin.
Zhang Guanglin acted very calmly. Although Lu Chengzhou didn't know about his previous experience, from the first time he saw him, Lu Chengzhou felt that this person was special.
I'm so hungry that I can't even stand still. When I hear there are dumplings to eat, my first reaction is not to pounce on them and eat them, but to bow to myself. This is a kind of cultivation or family education that comes from my bones.
"It should be." Zhang Guanglin bowed.
"Let's go have dinner together. We might not be back until very late tonight." Lu Chengzhou said meaningfully.
Zhang Guanglin sat behind Lu Chengzhou's car and didn't ask any questions.
No. 20 Cumberland Road is next to the Military Police Detachment and has its own separate small yard. After opening the door, you can park your bicycle in the yard.
Moreover, No. 20 Cumberland Road also has a back door. Sometimes the front door is too conspicuous, so you can enter through the back door.
In the middle bedroom, a big hole has been knocked out, and people can easily get in.
"This is only a temporary opening. Let's ask the cellar digger to dig it for us tomorrow." Zhang Guanglin said after following Lu Chengzhou over.
"Those are Japanese, you have to be polite." Lu Chengzhou reminded them.
Walking to the military police unit, Lu Chengzhou immediately felt that the atmosphere was very strange.
Everyone was silent, only Nakayama Ryoichi's office roared.
Lu Chengzhou waved to Zhang Guanglin and told him to quickly go to the Intelligence Room, while he tiptoed to Nakayama Liangyi's office.
As soon as I walked to the door of the office, I heard a slapping sound. It sounded like applause, but it was actually Nakayama Ryoichi slapping me hard.
Lu Chengzhou walked in and saw that the person who was beaten was none other than Miyamoto Kiyoshi, who shot Jiang Zhiyuan.
At this time, Miyamoto Kiyo's cheeks were already swollen.
"A good move was ruined by your recklessness. Are you worthy of the emperor? If it weren't for war, I would definitely execute you!" Nakayama Ryoichi roared in Japanese.
After Nakayama Ryoichi returned, Miyamoto Kiyoshi had already escaped.
After Jiang Zhiyuan was shot in the street, Miyamoto Kiyoshi could no longer stay outside.
If caught by the police, Miyamoto Kiyoshi will definitely be arrested.
"Captain Zhongshan, I am also responsible for this. I did not arrive at Dunqiao Road in time, which caused the CCP suspect to escape." Lu Chengzhou walked over and bowed heavily to Zhongshan Liangyi, saying with a guilty look on his face.
"Everyone was wrong about what happened today, but your handling was correct." Nakayama Liangyi glanced at Lu Chengzhou and said slowly.
