After threatening and bluffing, Ma Peiqu finally figured out that Lei Pen was trying to persuade Director Zhao to work for Chongqing. If the national army regained Yanjin in the future, Director Zhao would naturally become a patriotic businessman!
What's going on? Jiang Xinyu is a member of the Communist Party and Lei Pen is a military commander. They are not in the same group?
If you look at it this way, it is unlikely that Ray-Ban did it for the broken porcelain pieces to be subcontracted. There should be another reason...
"Team Leader Ma, I don't agree with what Lei Pen said, so it can't be said to be collaboration with the enemy, right?" Director Zhao said defensively.
Ma Peiqu thought for a while and said: "I just pretend that this incident didn't happen, but you can't go around and make it known. You know, although you didn't agree, not reporting the information is tantamount to collaborating with the enemy!"
"Of course, of course." Director Zhao agreed solemnly.
After sending Director Zhao back to the Chamber of Commerce, Ma Peiqu didn't waste a moment. He first went back to the detective team, and then returned to the vicinity of the Hongqiao Police Station.
Watching Ma Peiqu put a tape recorder into his briefcase, Mao Yonggui said: "Team leader, it's fine as long as I'm here. You can go back."
Ma Peiqu stared at the door of the police station and said, "No, today I want to meet Chief Lei in person!"
At around five o'clock, Ray-Ban walked out of the police station wearing casual clothes.
Ma Peiqu opened the door and got out of the car, walked over with a smile on his face and said, "Hello, Chief Lei."
Lei Ban: "Team Leader Ma, are you here to do business at the police station?"
"I came especially to see you!"
"Find me?"
"Chief Lieutenant Lei helped me find my wallet. I should express my gratitude."
"You're welcome, it's all part of your duty, and it doesn't take much effort."
"It may be just a small thing to you, but it means a lot to me! If Chief Lei is willing to reward me, let's find a place to have a few drinks and let me show my appreciation!"
"Then it will cost Team Leader Ma a lot of money!"
Lei Ban didn't take it too seriously. He had long been accustomed to this process of playing cards, even if he was facing Ma Peiqu, the leader of the intelligence team of the detective team!
At a nearby Sichuan restaurant, Ma Peiqu had reserved a private room in advance.
Guy: "Boy, would you like to order now?"
Ma Peiqu took the menu and ordered more than a dozen dishes at once. Lei Pen felt a little sorry and said quickly: "Team leader Ma, it's okay, the two of us can't eat so much."
"Brothers and sisters haven't eaten yet. Order a few more dishes and I'll send someone to deliver them to your home."
"Hey, you are so thoughtful, thank you very much!"
"I don't know why, but the first time I saw you, I felt so attached to you!"
"If you think highly of me, we are brothers. I dare not say anything else. After living in Yanjin for so many years, I have gained some respect in every aspect!"
"Must be a brother!"
As he spoke, Mapeiqu filled two glasses of wine. The two clinked their glasses and drank from their glasses.
After drinking two glasses of wine, Ma Peiqu let out a long sigh and said: "I thought that the environment would be different when I moved from Shanghai to Yanjin. Who knew that the crows in the world are as dark as each other, and no one is better than the other.
!”
Lei Ban put down his chopsticks and said, "What's the matter, are you having trouble?"
"The detective team has arrested important criminals and we are not allowed to interrogate them. They must be sent to the gendarmerie. What do you mean by this!"
"It's always been like this, just get used to it."
"Why? We worked hard and others picked up what was ready-made. In the end, all the credit goes to the gendarmerie! It's unreasonable, it's too reasonable!"
"To put it bluntly, the Japanese do not trust us after all. What do you think?"
"Oh, stop talking, come and drink!"
Ma Peiqu deliberately acted dissatisfied, but in fact he was just lying to let Ray-Ban fall into the trap he had set!
"Brother Ma, have you heard?"
"What did you hear?"
"At the end of last month, the US military sent more than 80 bombers to bomb Tokyo, Japan!"
"Oh, I heard that, but they didn't find the bombing target and didn't cause much damage."
"No damage was caused this time, but what about next time?"
"We don't have to worry about this kind of national matter."
"Brother Ma, in this situation, don't you plan to leave a way out for yourself?"
Ma Peiqu shook his head and said: "For people like us, what options are there for us? If the national army fights back in the future, we will just wait for our heads to fall!"
Lei Ban said tentatively: "Let me tell you, as long as we have a good relationship with Nanfang, when the day comes, everything will be fine!"
Ma Peiqu lowered his voice and said: "Brother, to be honest, I think it is the most important thing to live these days! But... we have no way!"
Lei Ban took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Brother Ma, you have no choice, I do!"
"Do you know anyone in Chongqing?" Ma Peiqu said, pretending to be surprised.
Lei Ban hesitated for a moment and said: "How can I have such great ability? Besides, if the Japanese find out, I will lose my life!"
"Then what's the way you're talking about?"
"I know a middleman who can help contact you. How you talk about it at that time is your own business."
"Oh, what is the middleman?"
"He... is a businessman in the porcelain business. Because of business matters, he often goes south, and he gets connected with Chongqing every time he goes back and forth."
"Then when can I meet him?"
"You have to do one or two things for Chongqing first to show your sincerity, otherwise they will not trust you and will not dare to come out to meet you."
Ma Peiqu pretended to think deeply for a while, then stretched out his hand and slammed the table, saying: "Okay! Then we have made an agreement. I will show my sincerity within the next day or two!"
Lei Ban was very happy. If he could instigate the intelligence team leader of the detective team, this would be a big contribution, and he would definitely be rewarded by his superiors!
The two drank another round of wine, and Ma Peiqu said: "I heard that you and Captain Jiang were very close when you were in the police station."
Ray-Ban: "We have a good relationship, but he is just a deadbeat!"
"Captain Jiang is known to be smart and capable, how can he be said to be stubborn?"
"To tell you the truth, I also advised him not to bet all his money on the Japanese. No matter what, he has to leave a way out for himself. What do you think his attitude is?"
"What attitude?"
"Refuse!"
"The reason Captain Jiang rejected you may be because he had other options..." Ma Peiqu said slowly and logically.
Ray-Ban snorted coldly and said: "What a way out! It's not like I can't bear to leave that Hattori Mina!"
Ma Peiqu smiled noncommittally and said: "Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty. Captain Jiang's choice may have its own reasons!"
Lei Ban said helplessly: "I have done everything I should do. He ran all the way to the dark side and no one could stop him... By the way, Brother Ma, you have to hurry up and I can make arrangements for you when the time comes."
meeting time!"
"Don't worry, you will see my sincerity soon!"
Ma Peiqu picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp!
