"Oh, I am the third director of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, Ding Mochun."
"It turns out to be Director Ding, whom I have admired for a long time."
"Detective Xu, can you give me some face today and let my men go? If you have any requests, you can sit down and talk about it."
Xu Siqi thought for a moment, took out the key and opened Axiang's handcuffs, and said: "Since Director Ding has spoken, I can't ignore him, so let's just forget about it."
Ding Mochun was somewhat surprised that the other party was so cheerful, and said: "Inspector Xu, I owe you a favor. If you can use Ding in the future, just ask."
"Director Ding, you are very polite. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me."
"No way. When it comes to offense, it's us who offended Inspector Xu."
"I don't dare. If I go to Huajie in the future and I catch up with someone who has a high horse and a short stirrup, I hope Director Ding will take care of him."
"It's easy to talk about."
The two people who were at war with each other just now are now in harmony and laughing happily.
This matter can only be solved in this way. Xu Siqi has the identity of the Secret Service and knows that the other party is from the National Government. Of course, he cannot hand over Axiang to the patrol.
He had already heard Zhou Weilong introduce the third branch of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. It was a department with the same status as the Secret Service Office and the Party Affairs Office, and was mainly responsible for postal and telecommunications inspections.
Ding Mochun's job level is generally similar to that of Boss Dai, but he is responsible for different tasks.
Xu Siqi knew that Ye Meiyun had made a phone call before going to the teahouse with him. Now it seemed that the call was undoubtedly to Ding Mochun.
The dignified Major General of the National Government went to the concession in person to kill people. This shows that the relationship between Ding Mochun and Li Shiqun is unusual.
Originally, according to Xu Siqi's plan, after verifying Li Shiqun's identity, he could just notify Fang Yongyan directly, and there was no need for him to get too involved.
The situation is different now. Ye Meiyun has become suspicious of herself. If Teko sends people to pick out the traitor, it will definitely arouse the enemy's suspicion.
Xu Siqi took the tram and arrived at the train station. According to the predetermined contact information, he wrote the connection code in the passenger message book.
…
Two days later.
At seven o'clock in the night.
On the Garbage Bridge connecting the Concession and Zhabei, Liang Dequan walked to the middle of the bridge and met with a businessman who claimed to have a Night Pearl from the Song Dynasty.
"Old Wang, have you brought the beads?"
"Bring it, bring it."
Lao Wang opened his gown, took out a bead the size of an egg, and said, "Brother Dequan, this is you. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't be able to sell it at this price."
"Then, what's the relationship between us two brothers..."
Halfway through the words, the smile on Liang Dequan's face gradually solidified. He slapped the beads into Lao Wang's hand and said with a stern face: "Old Wang, are you teasing me? If these are night pearls, I have a basket at home and will sell them all to you.
!”
Lao Wang's eyes were evasive. He was the bait brought by Liu Jianming. Facing Liang Dequan's questioning, he felt somewhat guilty.
Liang Dequan also saw something was wrong. With Lao Wang's discerning ability, he would not bring such fake goods. He looked around vigilantly and asked: "Lao Wan, tell me the truth, what is going on?
"
At this moment, Liu Jianming and several policemen ran towards the bridge.
Liang Dequan understood immediately and said angrily: "Old Wang, you are so fucking unjust, you are helping the police plot against me!"
Lao Wang looked sad and said: "The barrel of the gun is on his forehead. It's okay if I don't agree. Dequan, I can't help you. If you can, run away!"
Liang Dequan turned around and ran towards the concession. He was not very worried. Anyway, as long as he passed the checkpoint, the Chinese police could only stare.
When they were approaching the checkpoint, seeing that Liu Jianming and the others couldn't catch up, this guy got naughty and turned around and shouted: "Chase, chase, catch up with me, I will buy you candies!"
Xu Siqi stood in front of the checkpoint and ordered: "Temporary inspection, close the border gate and stop customs clearance."
"yes!"
The two patrolmen stepped forward and closed the heavy iron door.
The same large iron gates were built at all entrances and exits connecting the concession and the Chinese boundary, mainly to effectively close the concession in an emergency.
There were no gates in the concession at first. Later, when Liu Lichuan's Knife Society captured Shanghai, the concession authorities were worried that the war would spread to the concession, so they ordered the installation of iron gates.
When the Qing army fought against Xiao Dao Hui, swords were flashing across the Suzhou River, and the people in the concession looked at each other across the river, as if they were watching a big show, without being affected at all.
Neither the Qing army nor the Xiaodao Society dared to cross the line. The word "foreigner" was equivalent to a tiger's butt at that time.
A patrol officer stepped forward and said loudly to the people outside the iron gate: "The patrol room will be inspected for routine inspection and will be cleared in fifteen minutes."
I heard that the checkpoint was only closed for fifteen minutes, but no one else said much. Even if I got home fifteen minutes late, it wouldn't be considered a big deal.
Others could wait, but Liang Dequan could not wait. He banged the iron door anxiously and shouted repeatedly: "Open the door, open the door, I have something urgent!"
The patrolman glared: "Why are you shouting? You are the only one who has something urgent and everyone else is idle? Stand back, do you hear me?"
The patrolman picked up his rifle, pulled the bolt and loaded the gun with a clatter, and pointed the gun at Liang Dequan.
"no……"
Liang Dequan looked back and saw that Liu Jianming was already chasing him. He was so frightened that he swallowed the second half of his words.
Liu Jianming smiled and said: "I've caught up, I'll wait for you to buy candies for me."
"Chief Liu, please stop joking..." Liang Dequan cried sadly, secretly sighing why he was so unlucky.
Things went very smoothly. With Xu Siqi's strong assistance, Liu Jianming successfully captured the principal culprit of the smuggling case without any effort.
…
One week later.
evening.
In a teahouse box, Xu Siqi and Liu Jianming sat opposite each other.
Liu Jianming opened his briefcase, took out a suitcase from it, placed it gently in front of Xu Siqi, and said, "Inspector Xu, you deserve this."
Xu Siqi opened the suitcase and took a look. There were twenty envelopes of silver dollars neatly stacked inside. One hundred silver dollars constituted one envelope, and twenty envelopes equaled two thousand silver dollars.
"Chief Liu, this is..."
"In Liang Dequan's case, the police station gave a reward of 1,000 yuan, and the other 1,000 yuan was a bounty from the Party Affairs Investigation Office. I was specifically entrusted to deliver it on my behalf."
For a big case like Liang Dequan, the police station would definitely offer a reward, but Xu Siqi just didn't quite understand what this had to do with the Party Affairs Investigation Division.
Seeing Xu Siqi's confused look, Liu Jianming smiled and said, "Don't worry, you deserve this money."
Xu Siqi said sternly: "The so-called no reward for no merit, I don't want to receive favors from others for no reason. If you don't make it clear, I'm sorry, I can't accept this money."
Liu Jianming thought for a while and said: "Well, Inspector Xu is not an outsider, so it doesn't matter if I tell you. We have to start from the beginning... By the way, Shi Jiwei is from the Party Affairs Investigation Division, so this matter
Do you understand?"
Xu Siqi nodded: "I know. It's been published in the newspapers."
"When Station Commander Shi was killed, Director Xu Enzeng was shocked and ordered a thorough investigation into the matter. As you know, the Investigation Division is an intelligence department, and Station Commander Shi's whereabouts were very secretive. No one except me knew that he and Chen Zuyi were going to
Come to my house as a guest."
Liu Jianming paused for a moment, thinking about what to say and what not to say. After all, Xu Siqi was just an outsider.
