Director Hua of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau was assassinated. This matter was not trivial. Martial law was implemented in the Huade Road area, and all members of the patrol room were dispatched to find the murderer.
Major newspapers took notice of the news and printed extra headlines one after another, reporting on the murder of Wan Xiangsheng.
At this time, in the reception room of Du Mansion.
Zhang Xiaolin was like an ant on a hot pot, walking around the room with his hands behind his back.
The door rang and Du Wenlong stepped in.
Zhang Xiaolin stepped forward quickly and said, "Brother Wenlong, you have figured it out. If you don't show up again, I will go to the back hall to invite you in person."
Du Wenlong said: "I have the habit of taking a nap, and you don't know it. Today is the day you come. If it were anyone else, the housekeeper would have blocked the way. Tell me, why is it so urgent?"
Zhang Xiaolin hesitated to speak and looked at the housekeeper and servants beside him.
Waiting for the servant to bring refreshments, Du Wenlong waved his hand, and the servant and housekeeper retreated.
Du Wenlong picked up the tea bowl, took a long sip, and said: "It's sweet and delicious, leaving a fragrance on your lips and teeth. Xiaolin, you should also try it. This is this year's new tea, the authentic West Lake Longjing tea."
Zhang Xiaolin sighed: "I have no intention of drinking tea. To be honest, I came to visit you today. I begged you to come."
"beg me?"
Du Wenlong put down his tea bowl and said calmly: "Are you kidding me? In Shanghai, with your strength as Zhang Xiaolin, can you still settle some injustices?"
Zhang Xiaolin looked embarrassed: "Brother realizes what happened to Wan Xiangsheng. Brother Wenlong, just help me get through this difficulty..."
Du Wenlong interrupted him: "At the beginning, I earnestly advised you not to touch Wan Xiangsheng. He is not only Director Hua of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, but also a disciple of the Hongmen. If the matter is exposed, have you thought about the consequences?"
"I don't want to touch him. However, Wan is always against me. If he hadn't been a hindrance, I would have been elected as Director Hua long ago!" Zhang Xiaolin said bitterly.
"In the world of martial arts, one word is faith! Since you promised me, you should keep your promise!"
Du Wenlong felt somewhat guilty about Wan Xiangsheng's death.
If he hadn't believed in his guarantee, given Wan Xiangsheng's behavior, he would have probably taken the initiative and sent someone to assassinate Zhang Xiaolin.
When the time comes, it’s really hard to say who will win.
Zhang Xiaolin did one thing for yin and another for yang. On the surface he agreed to reconcile, but secretly he still went his own way.
"Brother Wenlong, I think back then, when you were most unsuccessful, I tried my best to help you. Now that my brother is in trouble and begging for help, you won't just sit back and do nothing, right?"
“…”
"In terms of Wan Xiangsheng's matter, I did go too far. However, you also have to think about me. As long as this stumbling block is removed, I can successfully be elected as Director Hua. If it were you who would have such a good opportunity,
What would you do? Besides, in the final analysis, Wan Xiangsheng is just an outsider, we are brothers and family members..."
Du Wenlong was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and said: "Tell me about your troubles. I can't guarantee anything. I can only say that I will do my best."
Zhang Xiaolin beamed with joy and hurriedly said: "Brother Wenlong, I won't hide it from you. The people I sent are now blocked near Huade Road. The police are patrolling and searching from house to house. Sooner or later they will be found. Alas, things happened in a hurry.
, had they not encountered the prison car escorting the prisoners, they could have escaped smoothly..."
Under normal circumstances, it would take at least ten minutes for the patrol officers to arrive at the scene and then report to each level.
Within ten minutes, Zhang Azheng and Wu Sibao had already escaped from Huade Road.
Russell is the detective, and he has the authority to declare martial law within his jurisdiction.
In this way, it saves time.
Before Zhang and Wu left Huade Road, martial law had been implemented nearby. It would not be so easy for them to escape smoothly.
"How can I help you?" Du Wenlong asked.
Zhang Xiaolin said: "Zhang Huan is in charge of the Taohua Lane level, you just need to send someone to say hello..."
Zhang Huan was the inspector of the Hongkou Police Station, and he once worshiped Du Wenlong.
Zhang Xiaolin's intention was very clear. As long as Zhang Huan agreed to help, Zhang Azheng and Wu Sibao would be allowed to leave from Taohua Lane.
Du Wenlong frowned: "If the matter is exposed, Zhang Huan will go to jail..."
"After the event is completed, I am willing to pay 10,000 yuan to express my gratitude, and I will never break my promise!"
"Okay then, I'll put aside this old face and send someone to say hello to Zhang Huan. However, he is the inspector now, so whether he is willing to help or not is another matter."
"How could it be? I heard that Zhang Huan would personally visit you during the holidays, which shows that he has not forgotten his roots and regards you as his mentor."
"You can figure out even such a trivial matter, Xiaolin, your ears are quite long!"
Zhang Xiaolin smiled dryly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Du Wenlong didn't ask further and said, "What's the name of the subordinate you sent?"
"Zhang Azheng and Wu Sibao." Zhang Xiaolin replied.
"Which Wu Si Bao?"
"It's the Wu Si Bao on Qiujiang Road."
"How did I hear that Wu Sibao was caught by Zhabei Police Station for reselling guns on the black market?"
"He asked someone to beg me, so I spent money to bail him out."
"Oh, so that's it... Do you have any photos of them? At least Zhang Huan needs to recognize them."
"Yes. I brought them all." Zhang Xiaolin took out two photos and put them on the table.
Du Wenlong called the housekeeper to give instructions and asked him to take the photo to Taohua Lane to meet Zhang Huan.
Taking out 10,000 yuan at once, Zhang Xiaolin was considered to have spent a lot of money.
It is not a secret that he and Wan Xiang are inseparable in appearance and spirit.
If something happened to Wan Xiangsheng, many people would suspect Zhang Xiaolin. However, without evidence, suspicion can only be suspicion.
After all, Wan Xiangsheng has been involved in gangs for many years, so he will definitely have enemies.
If Zhang Azheng and Wu Sibao were arrested, it would be a big trouble for Zhang Xiaolin.
Not only will the patrol room investigate to the end, Hongmen will definitely not give up.
Which one is more important, Zhang Xiaolin knows very well in his heart.
…
Ward Road.
The streets are full of patrols.
As a detective from China, Xu Siqi was naturally among them.
He came over solemnly and said in a low voice: "I guess it was most likely Zhang Xiaolin who sent someone to do it! Do you remember that Zhang Azheng followed Wan Xiangsheng at the intersection of Sanma Road last time and almost hit a tram.
"
Xu Siqi nodded: "I think so. However, with Zhang Xiaolin's identity, no one dares to do anything to him without evidence."
"It's good to be rich and powerful. If it were an ordinary citizen, he would have already entered the interrogation room."
"Have you found Ma Biao?"
"not yet."
"With handcuffs, he can't run far."
"Let me tell you, let's not waste time here. Let's go around for a while. If we can catch Ma Biao, it will be a great achievement."
Zheng Zheng's idea is very simple. If he can be promoted to the rank of inspector, it will be more beneficial to his latent work.
