Chapter five hundred and eighty first dealing with the aftermath
Layton's words made Kawashima Jinwu very angry, but there was nothing he could do, because the Japanese entered the concession privately, and no matter what went wrong, they had to bear it themselves, and there was no way to hold the British accountable.
However, the British government had been secretly supporting the Republic of China's war of resistance and wanted to openly enter the concession, which had no effect at all. Therefore, the Japanese had no choice but to enter quietly.
"Chief Layton, I won't pursue anything further, but this car and the things in it belong to the Empire of Japan and must be handed over to me now."
Kawashima Jinwu also knew that he was being unreasonable. After all, entering the concession privately did not make sense. In addition, he did not want to talk nonsense with Leiden, so he went straight to the topic.
Leiden didn't know what was in the car, and he wouldn't care about an ordinary car, so he said, "If it belongs to you, I will return it to you, but you have to provide me with a proof."
Layton did not embarrass Kawashima Jinwu because the white police chief knew that it was impossible to swallow their things in front of the Japanese.
What's more, Layton didn't dare to turn away the Japanese's things. After all, the white police chief believed that as long as the Japanese didn't cause trouble casually, they would be Amitabha.
Regarding Layton's request, Kawashima Jinwu didn't say much and immediately found a witness. After all, he knew that this was a normal procedure and he had to prove it.
But at this time, Kawashima Jinwu also saw a policeman carrying a suitcase in his hands, so he immediately stared at this person.
Even now, Kawashima Jinwu believes that the police did not know what was in the box, so they did not take any drastic action.
After a few minutes, it was confirmed that the car belonged to the Japanese, and Layton ordered the police leading the team to return the car and the box to them.
After listening to Layton's instructions, the policeman leading the team was heartbroken, and even felt like he was in pain. After all, it was really unacceptable for a large number of dollars to fly away in front of his eyes.
But the police leading the team had no choice. Not only could they not stop him, but they also pretended to be unaware and handed the items to the Japanese, because if they showed any reluctance, not only would they not get any benefits, but they would also get into trouble.
Because once the British know that the police leading the team wanted to embezzle US dollars and then confronted the Japanese, they will definitely be held accountable.
Looking at the suitcase in front of him, Kawashima Jinwu breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he knew what was in the suitcase.
After taking the box, Kawashima Jinwu weighed it casually, knowing the approximate number, and then handed the box to his men.
During this process, Kawashima Jinwu did not open the box, because he also knew how money moved people's hearts, and he was afraid that if he opened the box and let the white police chief see it, he would cause some trouble.
However, it was precisely because of this that Wu Baozhong had an excuse to escape when the incident occurred, and it also caused the relationship between the Japanese and the concession authorities to become even worse.
"Chief Layton, the matter has been dealt with, I will take my leave!"
Kawashima Jinwu had to go to the Meihua Hotel to clean up the aftermath, so he got the box and said goodbye immediately.
Leiden did not stop him. After all, in his heart, he had always hoped that the Japanese would leave as soon as possible so that he could deal with the aftermath.
After more than ten minutes, Kawashima Jinwu arrived at the Meihua Hotel, cleaned up the mess, and then left with others.
When Kawashima Jinwu left the concession, Wang Min and others also returned to the headquarters and were dejectedly reporting the situation to Li Yunsheng.
After telling the story in detail, Wang Min said in a low voice: "District Chief, I did not make proper arrangements and allowed this traitor to escape. I will bear all the responsibilities."
Wang Min's tone was very disappointed, because he had a lot of responsibilities for today's events. After all, the obstruction was not arranged well, which allowed Wu Baozhong to escape.
"Okay, what happened today is not entirely your fault. I can only say that the traitor was destined to die."
Li Yunsheng did not pursue the matter. After all, he was his confidant and could not be held responsible for a single failure. Moreover, there was no problem with Wang Min's arrangements tonight. After all, no one could have imagined that Wu Baozhong would dare to rush into the sea of fire at the risk of a car crash and death.
Besides, Wang Min's performance tonight can be regarded as going all out, even taking risks with Wu Baozhong. What can Li Yunsheng say?
Hearing that Li Yunsheng would not pursue the case, Wang Min breathed a sigh of relief and said again: "District Chief, Wu Baozhong, this traitor, is really troublesome. We haven't dealt with him this time, and we don't know when we will have another chance."
Wang Min was very upset about not being able to get rid of Wu Baozhong. After all, he had performed many missions and had never suffered such a big loss.
What's more, after what happened tonight, Wu Baozhong will definitely be more cautious. It will be very difficult to get rid of him.
At this time Xu Bing also frowned and said: "District Chief, Wu Baozhong, this traitor, had some bad luck. He was able to escape two snipers. If you want to get rid of him again in the future, I'm afraid..."
At this point, Xu Bing did not continue to speak. After all, the two misses had already caused the military commander to lose face.
What's more, in tonight's operation, Li Yunsheng set up two killing traps to be on the safe side, but neither of them succeeded. This has affected the morale of the military commander to a certain extent.
After listening to what the two people said, Li Yunsheng smiled slightly and said with a touch of emotion: "It's not a big deal, it's just a coincidence. I can only say that this traitor is destined to be lucky."
Both operations failed, which also surprised Li Yunsheng. After all, Wu Baozhong, a traitor, was so lucky that even the arranged sniper failed to kill him.
However, after experiencing this incident, Li Yunsheng also paid more attention to Wu Baozhong, because luck is a vague thing and cannot be explained.
Besides, Wu Baozhong not only has luck, but also has considerable courage and ability, which makes it even more troublesome.
As soon as Li Yunsheng finished speaking, the room fell silent. No one knew what to say. After all, the successive failures made these people feel depressed.
"Okay, we didn't gain anything from this incident. These twenty kilograms of gold can be regarded as a big advantage for the Japanese."
After a pause, he continued: "Besides, Wu Baozhong lost so much gold, which is enough for him. The Japanese will never spare him."
Seeing that his subordinates were in low spirits, Li Yunsheng immediately spoke to encourage everyone. After all, one or two failures didn't mean anything. As long as you persevered, you would be able to eradicate the traitors sooner or later. Moreover, the War of Resistance Against Japan was a long-lasting matter, and there was no need to fight for its length.
"Yes, losing this batch of gold is enough for the traitor. I don't know what the Japanese will do with him?"
Xu Bing immediately agreed, his tone full of schadenfreude. After all, everyone knew that the Japanese were very stingy, and Wu Baozhong, who had lost a large amount of gold, would definitely be unlucky.
Then he changed the topic and said: "But this time, thanks to Xiao Wang, if he hadn't been clever, he wouldn't have been able to take away the gold, and he also created an opportunity for us to eradicate the traitors."
After saying these words, Xu Bing looked at the young man named Wang with gentle eyes, his eyes full of relief.
The young man surnamed Wang is called Wang Youwei. He is a college student. During the Shanghai War, he joined the military command's action team and was later incorporated into Li Yunsheng's department.
When the Shanghai War was about to end, Wang Youwei accepted training from Xu Bing and was considered her student. Later, after several trainings, he was able to stand alone.
Wang Youwei performed well tonight. As a teacher, Xu Bing was naturally honored, so he immediately took the opportunity to praise him.
"Xiao Wang is indeed outstanding, and his performance tonight surprised me."
Li Yunsheng was indeed very satisfied with Wang Youwei's performance. After all, this person could adapt to changing situations and, even more rare, could complete the task.
"It's all because of the good leadership of the district chief and the good teaching by Teacher Xu."
After hearing the compliments from the two people, Wang Youwei immediately said a few words of humility, because he knew in his heart that it is not a good thing to take credit and be arrogant at any time.
Wang Youwei's performance made Li Yunsheng even more satisfied, so he said: "I saw your performance tonight and will give you credit later."
Although Wang Youwei performed well, his qualifications were still low, and Li Yunsheng could not promote him. He could only remember him for his great merits and wait for the right time to promote him.
Wang Youwei also knew that his qualifications were shallow, and even if he performed well this time, he would not be promoted, so he would not be dissatisfied.
At the same time, Wu Baozhong's physical condition also recovered somewhat, allowing the traitor to have the energy to think about tonight's events.
The more he thought about it, the more Wu Baozhong felt that something was wrong, especially the box of U.S. dollars. There might be something wrong with it, so he became a little worried. After all, the traitor knew that if there was something wrong with the U.S. dollars and he lost the gold, there might be big consequences.
trouble.
When the traitor was anxious, several of his men rushed over to visit his immediate boss.
Seeing several of his subordinates appear, Wu Baozhong frowned and immediately asked: "What are you doing here? What's going on at the Meihua Hotel? Are there any clues?"
Wu Baozhong's tone was very displeased. After all, he felt that these men were so useless and made him angry just looking at them.
After hearing Wu Baozhong's question, his subordinates looked at each other, and one of the older ones answered: "Captain, Colonel Kawashima went to the Meihua Hotel. After doing some research, he asked us to go back and stand by."
After a pause, he continued: "Because my subordinates and others are concerned about the captain's injury, I came here to visit first..."
The older traitor has rich experience and is naturally good at talking. Even if Wu Baozhong is dissatisfied with today's events, he is in a much better mood at this time. After all, as a traitor, he is too empty and needs the care of others, even if it is false care.
.
At this time, Wu Baozhong thought about the box again, and asked with a roll of his eyes: "Colonel Kawashima went to the Meihua Hotel, did he say anything special?"
The subordinate thought for a while, then shook his head and answered with certainty: "The colonel just dealt with the aftermath, inspected the scene, and took the people away without saying anything more. But I did hear that the gendarmerie people
, had a conflict with the police in the concession!"
"What is going on, please explain to me clearly?"
Upon hearing these words, Wu Baozhong's eyes suddenly lit up, because he immediately thought that the reason why the police in the concession had a conflict with the Japanese must be because of the U.S. dollars in the box.
However, his men were not at the scene and had no idea what was going on. Wu Baozhong had no choice but to ask them to go out and inquire.
