Chapter three hundred and ninety seventh repayment
As usual, Lu Chengzhou first reported to the police station and then held a small meeting in his office to lay out today's work.
Afterwards, he will patrol the area.
After walking around for a while, it was not yet noon, but Lu Chengzhou's work for the day was considered done.
We go back for lunch at noon, it doesn’t matter whether we come in the afternoon or not.
As an inspector, as long as no major cases occur in his jurisdiction, no one will care about him.
Lu Chengzhou was in the patrol room and it was not easy to talk to Deng Zehua, but when he arrived at Road 25, he specifically talked to Deng Zehua.
"How are you doing?" Lu Chengzhou's so-called patrol is certainly not like being a patrol leader, riding from one end of Road 25 to the other.
"It's not bad. This road has good security and no major crimes have occurred." Deng Zehua said respectfully. Seeing Lu Chengzhou take out a cigarette, he immediately took out a fire and lit it for Lu Chengzhou.
"Are there many Japanese on Road 25?" Lu Chengzhou asked casually.
Han Fushan discovered that Deng Zehua was mysterious about people and gods. He estimated that Deng Zehua was either doing private work or joining some kind of organization.
Many of the police officers on patrol are gang members, such as Liao Zhendong.
There are also some who are members of anti-Japanese organizations, such as Lu Chengzhou.
Of course, there are also Japanese spies, such as Jia Ming, Han Fushan and others.
Deng Zehua's previous identity was still very innocent.
However, during this period, Lu Chengzhou did not have much contact with Deng Zehua. He listened to the reports every day and did not know much about his ideological trends.
"There are fifteen households with a total of 68 people, including two shops opened by Japanese." Deng Zehua said immediately.
As the patrol leader of Route 25, you still need to have a thorough understanding of the situation in the area under your jurisdiction.
Lu Chengzhou did very well when he was on Road 24.
At that time, he could call every household on Road 24 by name.
This impressed Deng Zehua deeply, and it is also his current role model.
"Aren't you going to cause trouble?" Lu Chengzhou asked.
What he meant was to ask whether these Japanese and the shops they ran were related to the Japanese secret service.
"They should all be legitimate Japanese." Deng Zehua thought for a while and said.
When Deng Zehua answered this question, he showed his thoughts.
Lu Chengzhou didn't ask any more questions. Obviously, these Japanese people on Road 25 were the focus of Deng Zehua's attention.
Deng Zehua was able to accurately say that there were sixty-eight Japanese on Road 25, which surprised him.
"Someone told me that you have been doing something recently. Can you tell me what it is?" Lu Chengzhou asked suddenly.
"This...actually it's nothing, I just met a few friends." Deng Zehua hesitated and said.
"What do these friends do?" Lu Chengzhou asked again.
"Anti-Japanese." Deng Zehua glanced at Lu Chengzhou and said calmly.
"Anti-Japanese elements? Have you joined?" Lu Chengzhou asked, his pupils shrinking.
"Not yet." Deng Zehua shook his head.
"In the future, don't interact with them in public again." Lu Chengzhou warned.
"Yes..." Deng Zehua said helplessly.
He did not understand what Lu Chengzhou meant. It was not that they were not allowed to interact, but that they were not allowed to "openly interact".
"If your behavior is known to others, it will not only bring trouble to those friends, but also bring trouble to you. Do you know how many people want to see your jokes? If you make a fool of yourself, I will make a fool of myself too.
." Lu Chengzhou reminded.
Deng Zehua and Wang Siguang were both inspectors promoted by him.
Although these two people also served as Class A patrol officers for several years.
But there are hundreds of Class A patrol officers in the police force, but there are only so many patrol captains.
All Class A patrol officers aspire to become patrol chiefs.
"I understand." Deng Zehua sighed secretly.
Lu Chengzhou didn't know who was in contact with Deng Zehua.
But whether it was the military command or the underground party, he was very pleased.
At noon, when Lu Chengzhou went home for dinner, Zeng Zilian handed him a note with an address, the north entrance of Ningyuan, and a description of Fu Qi. He was of medium build, skinny, wearing a gray coat and cloth shoes.
Fu Qi was from the Nangong County Anti-Japanese Forces and was sent to Haigu to purchase the Blue Sky and White Sun cap badge.
"Aren't you going?" Lu Chengzhou glanced at the note and asked in a low voice before Ma Yuzhen came out.
"No time." Zeng Zilian rolled her eyes at Lu Chengzhou.
Her intelligence team will finally be strengthened, and she will be responsible for intelligence support at Ma Dafu Hospital.
At the same time, she still had to keep in touch with Hu Ranwei and collect information about warehouses in the city. If she didn't want to have a meal with him, she wouldn't want to come back at noon.
Lu Chengzhou rode out on his own. When he left the British Concession, he felt as if there were a pair of eyes staring at him from behind.
However, when he looked back, he didn't find it.
Lu Chengzhou deliberately speeded up. He grew up in Haigu and was very familiar with the urban terrain.
On the other side of Guangshan Street, when passing through a long and narrow alley, he pedaled his bicycle fiercely. After he came out, he swung his bicycle towards the entrance of the alley and stood guard next to it.
Sure enough, after a while, a thin man quickly chased after him.
He looked at the entrance of the alley and immediately spotted Lu Chengzhou smoking.
"Lu... Lu police officer."
"Why, rats also come out during the day?" Lu Chengzhou said jokingly when he saw it was Ma Ping.
Last time, Ma Ping committed a crime at the Lishun Hotel and stole something from Barnes. The police investigated the British Concession and it was Lu Chengzhou who finally found the stolen goods.
"Officer Lu was joking." Ma Ping actually wanted to talk to Lu Chengzhou, but when he was about to turn into No. 15, No. 24 Road, he saw Zeng Zilian and Ma Yuzhen.
Seeing that Lu Chengzhou had a female family member at home, he naturally did not dare to go in again and could only wait outside.
Unexpectedly, when Lu Chengzhou came out, he changed into casual clothes. Ma Ping followed him all the way to the city.
"Tell me, what do you want to do with me? It's not another case." Lu Chengzhou threw away the cigarette butt, pushed the bicycle, and walked forward slowly.
"Officer Lu, please lend me a moment to speak." Ma Ping saw someone nearby and followed Lu Chengzhou, and said softly.
"There is a teahouse in front, let's go there." Lu Chengzhou pointed to the teahouse in front and said.
After arriving at the teahouse, Lu Chengzhou asked for a seat, ordered a pot of tea, and ordered snacks.
As soon as the snacks were served, Ma Ping also came in.
"Thank you to Officer Lu for helping me with what happened last time. Ma is very grateful." Ma Ping walked up to Lu Chengzhou, clasped his hands and said sincerely.
"I thought you had forgotten about this." Lu Chengzhou said lightly.
Ma Ping handed him the stolen goods and was able to successfully resolve the crisis.
Otherwise, the police force would never spare Ma Ping lightly.
Now Ma Ping is dead. Wen Xiufeng found a scapegoat in prison and was shot in the name of "Ma Ping".
That "Ma Ping" was already going to be sentenced to death, but if he was charged with one more crime, he wouldn't die twice.
But his family received an unexpected fortune, and his death was considered a well-deserved one.
“Police Officer Lu’s kindness will never be forgotten by Ma Ping,” Ma Ping said solemnly.
"Okay, sit down. Actually, I don't care whether you repay the favor or not. All I ask is that you don't commit crimes in my jurisdiction." Lu Chengzhou took a sip of tea and said.
"I guarantee that there will never be any major robberies in Officer Lu's jurisdiction in the future," Ma Ping said.
He is now somewhat famous in the world, and he can still be safe if he dares to steal Barnes' things.
In addition, he is Wang Huzi's apprentice, so all the gangsters in Haigu will give him some face.
"That's good." Lu Chengzhou nodded.
"Ma Ping can't repay Officer Lu's kindness. This is a small kindness. Please accept it, Officer Lu." Ma Ping took off a cloth bag from his waist and put it on the table in front of Lu Chengzhou.
The bag fell on the table and made a clanking sound. When Lu Cheng heard it on Monday, he knew it was hard goods.
"I can't take your money." Lu Chengzhou pushed the bag aside and said calmly.
He is a police officer, how can he ask for the thief's money?
"Officer Lu, please rest assured, there is no problem with the source of the money." Ma Ping said in a low voice.
Ever since the case at Lilili Hotel was settled, he had been thinking about how he could repay Lu Chengzhou.
This is also the reason why he never showed up.
Lu Chengzhou helped him avoid a disaster, so he couldn't thank him empty-handed.
Ma Ping has nothing else he is good at and can only do his job.
"Is there any problem with the origin of your money?" Lu Chengzhou smiled. This money was hot and he wouldn't want it.
"This is 'taken' from Yan Shuxun's family. This big traitor, no matter how much he takes, there is no problem." Ma Ping said proudly.
"You still said the money is fine?" Lu Chengzhou said with a wry smile.
Both the underground party and the military command lack funds.
He didn't know how much money was in the bag, but he thought it was a lot.
It would be false to say that Lu Chengzhou was not moved.
Through the bag, he could feel the gold bars inside calling to him.
"I knew you wouldn't want my money." Ma Ping said with some disappointment.
"I'm very satisfied that you have such a heart. As for the money, I can't take it. Let's give it to those who really need it." Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
"Officer Lu, I'm staying in the French Concession. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me. As long as it's useful, Ma Ping will never give up." Ma Ping picked up the bag, closed it on his waist, and clasped his fists.
Sincerely.
He used to be in the British Concession, but after taking on the Lishun Hotel case, he always felt uneasy every time he came to the British Concession.
If you live in the French Concession, at least you can sleep well at night.
"Don't worry, I will be useful to you in the future." Lu Chengzhou said with a smile.
Ma Ping, a big thief, will definitely be useful.
Later, Lu Chengzhou went to the Liujing Road Municipal Office in Hebei Province and visited Sun Zhishu, the director of general affairs.
Before, Lu Chengzhou met Sun Zhishu several times as a match, and even talked to him about how to have both sides.
As expected, it was not as Lu Chengzhou expected. In the end, Liu Jinghua did not kill Pan Jiacai. The head of the secret service in Beijing personally came to Haigu to persuade the Japanese Army Secret Service in Haigu.
In the end, Haigu's secret service gave in and allowed Pan Jiacai to come to Haigu to serve as mayor.
