Zhao Fuhai was assassinated in the street, but the man from No. 76 arrived belatedly without saying anything. He simply checked on him and then turned around and left.
Such an obvious approach made Zhao Fuhai understand that No. 76 was just running an errand.
Thinking of the conflict with Li Shiqun, Zhao Fuhai immediately decided to send his own people to investigate.
After returning home, Zhao Fuhai calmed down and had many thoughts. He also believed that the assassination was not the work of the anti-Japanese forces.
"Sir, are you saying that this assassination was not carried out by anti-Japanese elements?"
The secretary was a little confused. After all, Shanghai was Japanese territory. Who would dare to assassinate Zhao Fuhai in the street except anti-Japanese elements?
"It's very possible!"
Zhao Fuhai spoke slowly and expressed this conclusion.
"why is that?"
"If you think about it carefully, isn't Shanghai very peaceful recently, and I haven't done anything extraordinary, so there is no need for the military commanders to come and kill me?
As for other anti-Japanese armed forces, I am afraid they do not have the ability to dispatch more than ten armed personnel."
Zhao Fuhai believes that in recent months, he has been suppressing No. 76 with the acquiescence of the Japanese.
Although this move was for the purpose of fighting for power, it was in the interests of the anti-Japanese forces. Logically speaking, the anti-Japanese armed forces would not assassinate him.
After all, compared with Li Shiqun, Zhao Fuhai's harm is much less, and his importance is also a little less.
As for the anti-Japanese forces with more than a dozen armed personnel, it is estimated that the military unification is the only one, but the military unification will not take action.
After all, compared to Zhao Fuhai, Li Shiqun and No. 76 are the only targets of the military commander. Anyone who is smart knows how to choose.
"Who could that be?"
The secretary also felt that this matter was a bit strange. After all, Zhao Fuhai had really done nothing during this period of time, and the anti-Japanese armed forces should not assassinate him.
"It's most likely that Li Shiqun did it?"
After such a long time, Zhao Fuhai has already suspected Li Shiqun. This is also a common problem among politicians. When encountering a crisis, he will immediately think of his opponents.
Moreover, Zhao Fuhai had just broken up with Li Shiqun and was assassinated, so he would naturally think so.
"Li Shiqun dares to assassinate you, this..."
The secretary couldn't believe this result. After all, Zhao Fuhai was an important member of the puppet government, and his status was still higher than that of Li Shiqun. Even when No. 76 was at his most arrogant, he did not dare to take action against important members of the puppet government.
What's more, the current number 76 is being squeezed by all forces, and even the support of the Japanese has weakened a lot.
Therefore, the secretary believed that even if Li Shiqun was crazy, he would not dare to attack Zhao Fuhai.
"I know better than you how courageous Li Shiqun is."
It was precisely because Zhao Fuhai knew how courageous Li Shiqun was that he immediately suspected him.
Moreover, Zhao Fuhai felt that if he was assassinated, Li Shiqun could blame the incident directly on the anti-Japanese armed forces.
In this way, even if you are reprimanded by the Japanese, the benefits are not small.
After all, without Zhao Fuhai standing up and publicly suppressing No. 76, Li Shiqun's life would have been much easier.
In addition, the two people had a public disagreement a few days ago, and Zhao Fuhai even believed that this was Li Shiqun's revenge.
"Then let's go to General Qingchuan and sue him!"
The secretary immediately made this suggestion. After all, No. 76 had a special status and was only nominally under the management of the puppet government. But in fact, the officials of the puppet government were not recruited by this department.
After all, the weapons and equipment of No. 76, as well as most of the supplies needed, were provided by the Japanese, and there were not many places where the puppet government was needed.
What's more, since the establishment of the puppet government, Li Shiqun has not reached a high status because of his poor popularity and his lack of scruples in doing things, which has exceeded the bottom line of many politicians.
This situation also made Li Shiqun dissatisfied, so he abandoned the puppet government and moved directly towards the Japanese, and even openly fought with some officials of the puppet government.
Zhao Fuhai, who held a high position in the puppet government, had nothing to do with Li Shiqun. After all, no one could touch the spy leader without the permission of the Japanese.
"We have no evidence. Even if we file a complaint, Li Shiqun can push back and forth. What can we do to him?"
Zhao Fuhai immediately rejected this suggestion. After all, what happened last time had made this big traitor understand that Qingchuan Qiheng would not give up No. 76 easily.
"Then you admit it!"
The secretary's tone was very angry, because his boss was assassinated in the street, and if there was no response, his already low prestige would be weakened.
As Zhao Fuhai's secretary, if this big traitor's situation is not good, his life will also be difficult.
"I admit it, how is it possible?"
Zhao Fuhai spoke bitterly, with a sinister tone in his tone, and then changed the subject and said: "You remember, if Li Shiqun does not come up with the results of the investigation within three days, we will notify the Ministry of Finance and put the Seventy-Six
The funds for my account have been stopped."
Most of the funds for the activities on the 76th were provided by the Japanese, but some were provided by the puppet government, so Zhao Fuhai dared to target Li Shiqun.
After all, he controlled part of No. 76's money bag, so Li Shiqun inevitably had some scruples when facing Zhao Fuhai.
The two sides had been fighting for a long time. Even when Li Shiqun was arrogant, he did not dare to use dirty methods against Zhao Fuhai.
Otherwise, given Li Shiqun's personality, when Zhao Fuhai took action to suppress No. 76, he would have already used some dark methods on him, such as kidnapping relatives and so on...
"Stop the funding for No. 76!"
The secretary was stunned for a moment, not expecting Zhao Fuhai to say that, but he quickly came to his senses and said excitedly: "I've written it down!"
"Now it depends on what Li Shiqun is going to do, but don't give me a reasonable excuse!"
Zhao Fuhai muttered to himself again, because although he was very concerned about the assassination, he did not forget to suppress Li Shiqun and No. 76.
So after the incident happened, Zhao Fuhai immediately guessed that it was Li Shiqun who did it. After all, these politicians always put their interests first.
At the same time, Li Shiqun was also thinking about how to deal with this matter.
After Zhao Fuhai was assassinated, the military police rushed over to clean up the mess, so Qingchuan Qiheng also got the news.
After learning about the situation, the Japanese general called Li Shiqun immediately and asked Li Shiqun to solve the case as soon as possible and find the murderer of Zhao Fuhai.
Li Shiqun had just found out about Zhao Fuhai, so naturally he didn't take the matter to heart, but on the surface he wanted to give an explanation to the Japanese, so he immediately promised Qingchuan Qiheng that the case would be solved as soon as possible.
Li Shiqun put down the phone, with a smile on his face, and thought with schadenfreude, damn Zhao Fuhai, he is finally unlucky, let's see if you still dare to suppress me...
Li Shiqun had some ideas as to who assassinated Zhao Fuhai. After all, only the military commander could dispatch more than ten armed men at once to assassinate puppet government officials on the street.
And only the military commander often did this kind of assassination. As for other anti-Japanese forces, they would not easily use this method. After all, assassination on the street, one improper action, would lose a lot of manpower.
Therefore, except for the Military Command Bureau, which had strong support from the National Government, no other anti-Japanese organizations had the confidence to do this.
However, the assassination failed. Li Shiqun was very disappointed, and even more annoyed to think that these military commanders were really incompetent. No one from No. 76 came to support them, and they hadn't succeeded yet...
