After Chen Xigen was assassinated, the police dispatched police immediately.
As a consultant to the Police Department, Nakayama Ryoichi was very concerned about the Police Department's actions, and he immediately notified the Military Police detachment.
At this time, Lu Chengzhou had just arrived at the military police detachment after having dinner at home, and learned that such a thing had happened.
Lu Chengzhou was shocked when he learned that something happened at the Da Guangming Cinema.
After arriving at the place, it was determined that the deceased was Chen Xigen, manager of the Haigu Branch of United Bank.
The crime scene was well maintained, and the woman brought by Chen Xigen, as well as the manager and projectionist of the cinema, were all summoned.
The police department and the gendarmerie detachment jointly handled the case. They were divided into two sides and listened to the confessions of these people.
Only Lu Chengzhou stood with the military police unit at first. After waiting for a while, he quietly moved to the police station.
Through the narrations of the woman and the projectionist, the facts of the case were quickly clarified.
Because the phantom "Manager Chen is looking for someone outside" was played on the screen, Chen Xigen's position was exposed.
Therefore, the projectionist was the only eyewitness to the murderer.
It's a pity that the projectionist was only busy writing the slide show at that time and did not pay attention to the appearance of this person. He only vaguely remembered that he was an adult man of medium height and ordinary appearance, which meant that he had no obvious features.
"This must have been done by the military commander!" Lu Chengzhou said firmly after returning to the conference room of the military police unit.
In fact, from the description of the projectionist, he felt that the person who requested the illusion film looked very much like Zheng Wenyou.
Every time Zheng Wenyou goes out, he puts on makeup to try to look ordinary.
"Chen Xigen has a special identity, and this case happened at the Daguangming Cinema. This case must be solved!" Nozaki's eyes slowly swept over the faces of Lu Chengzhou and Jin Timing, and said sternly.
He applied to the Military Police to replenish the manpower of the special high class as soon as possible.
However, until now, the gendarmerie has not responded.
The gendarmerie detachment needs support. The gendarmerie can send people over at any time, but it is not possible to station the gendarmerie detachment permanently.
Nozaki sadly discovered that he could only rely on these Chinese people.
"Mr. Nozaki, please rest assured that the Intelligence Room will do its best!" Lu Chengzhou said solemnly.
"Leave Chen Xigen's case to the third room." Jin Timing suddenly said.
He was also at the scene just now, and it felt like it was done by the military commander.
The method of committing the murder was very similar to that of a military commander.
As the director of the third office, Jin Timing naturally wanted to achieve results, and his main opponent was also the military commander.
However, so far, he has not done anything that satisfies him.
In addition to the police department investigating Chen Xigen's case this time, Jin Timing hopes to handle the case on behalf of the military police detachment.
"Director Jin, the military commander is very cunning, and the police department may not be serious about handling this case. I think it is better to let the first office investigate." Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
Since Jin Timing was transferred to Intelligence Office 3, the relationship between the two has changed from a cooperative relationship to a competitive relationship.
"It is precisely because the military commander is cunning and the first office is short of manpower and is responsible for the intelligence of the British Concession. Therefore, it is most appropriate to hand it over to the third office." Jin Timing said with a smile.
Although he was Lu Chengzhou's instructor when he was in Xiongzhenlou, he almost became the commander of the military command Haigu station.
But after arriving at the military police detachment, he became Lu Chengzhou's deputy.
Now that he is transferred to the Third Intelligence Office as the director, he is qualified to sit on an equal footing with Lu Chengzhou.
"Leave this case to the third room. The first room is responsible for intelligence collection." Nozaki said slowly.
Now that Nozaki has decided, Lu Chengzhou naturally can't fight anymore.
In fact, he didn't want to investigate the military commander's case. If he couldn't be found out, he would definitely be punished. If he was found out, what would happen to him?
As long as Lu Chengzhou takes over, this case will definitely be unsolvable.
The next morning, Lu Chengzhou made a special trip to Liu Lifeng's office at the police station. He first reported to Liu Lifeng the attitude of the gendarmerie unit. Isn't it at this time that the special activity fund of 500 yuan per month comes into play?
"The Japanese are very determined. Nozaki has already reported to the Japanese Kaigu Army Secret Service and the Japanese Defense Forces Headquarters. It is said that Amano Tatsumi and Honma Masaharu were very angry and ordered the military police detachment to solve the case." Lu Chengzhou
Said worriedly.
"Chen Xigen worked for the Japanese and deserved to die." Liu Lifeng said angrily.
"Virgo, you have to think of a way quickly, otherwise the Japanese will take the opportunity to cause trouble again." Lu Chengzhou reminded.
The reason why he didn't want Zheng Wenyou to take action in the concession was that he didn't want to give the Japanese a chance.
After Wen Peishi took office, he launched an anti-British movement, and the Japanese have been eyeing the concession.
The existence of the concession served as an excellent cover for various anti-Japanese forces.
Once the concession cooperates with the Japanese, both the military and the Chinese Communist Party will lose the soil for growth.
"There are British people here, why are they afraid of the Japanese? The police department will definitely handle the case attentively. However, the case occurred in the British Concession. Even if the murderer is caught, it cannot be handed over to the Japanese." Liu Lifeng said coldly.
"Nozaki handed the case over to Jin Timing. If it were handed over to me, it would help the police," Lu Chengzhou said regretfully.
"Don't touch this case." Liu Lifeng shook his head. If Lu Chengzhou handled this case, some things would be difficult to handle.
"Virgo, do you have any clues?" Lu Chengzhou asked suddenly, and Liu Lifeng seemed very confident.
"The military commander is too blatant. It's good to teach them a lesson. This time, they actually injured two foreigners." Liu Lifeng said lightly.
The military commander had come to visit him before and wanted to assassinate Lu Chengzhou.
At that time, he made it clear that Lu Chengzhou was from the police department and the military could not touch people from the police department.
Unexpectedly, just how long had passed before the military commander took action again.
It's okay to say hello before taking action, but when they arrive, it's best to take action at the Grand Guangming Cinema.
The commotion was quite big, but the repercussions were also huge.
After the military commander made a move, he patted his butt and left, leaving a lot of mess behind.
Liu Lifeng felt that arresting the military commanders and sentencing them to three to five years would serve as a reminder to them.
The British Concession was not a Kuomintang-controlled area, and the military could not mess around.
After Lu Chengzhou inspected the area, he went to the military police unit.
"Foreigner?" Lu Chengzhou said in surprise.
The military commander was dealing with traitors and Japanese spies, so how could he attack foreigners?
Besides, why didn't he hear about this last night?
"At the time of the incident, two foreigners saw the murderer running outside. They were suddenly hugged from behind and shot twice in the stomach. They are currently being rescued in the hospital. It is said that eight holes were punched in the intestines. Another Swiss man,
He died on the spot." Liu Lifeng said slowly.
This is also the reason why he wants to handle this case. Even if he doesn't give an explanation to the Japanese, he still has to give an explanation to the Swiss.
