Cheng Qianfan was sitting at the window, holding a thread with his left hand, and the other end of the thread was tied to the curtain. He gently pulled the thread, and the curtain opened a small opening, allowing him to observe the activities of Hans Clinic.
He was addicted to cigarettes, but he didn't smoke. He was playing with a cigarette in his right hand like a flower.
During the past few days while secretly protecting "Mr. Miao" at the "Tianya Photo Studio", Cheng Qianfan, who is addicted to cigarettes, was in a strict state of quitting smoking.
Because he carefully inspected Tianya Photo Studio and found that the owner of the photo studio did not have a habit of smoking, and there was no smoke in the whole house.
At this moment, Cheng Qianfan caught a glimpse of the light bulb at Hans Clinic going out, then turning on again...
He began to count silently in his mind, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!
After seven seconds, turn off the light.
Immediately it turned on again.
A smile broke out on Cheng Qianfan's face, which was a sign that 'Mr. Miao' had woken up and the operation was successful.
At the same time, in the safe house diagonally opposite Hans Clinic, Kang Erniu and another comrade who was responsible for security work also received the signal, and both of them were very excited.
Previously, 'Mr. Miao' had been in a coma and could not move. This was the biggest hidden danger in their security work. Now, 'Mr. Miao' has regained consciousness and the operation was successful. This biggest safety hazard is gone. Even if there is an emergency, they can
There is also more room for maneuver.
Kang Erniu didn't know that the signal sent out from the clinic was not just conveyed to them, but actually had something else going on.
Only Peng and Ou know that Cheng Qianfan is secretly guarding this photo studio, and no one else knows, including Chai Xue, who just sent the safety signal.
…
About two hours later, Cheng Qianfan checked the time on his watch and realized it was almost time to evacuate.
'Mr. Miao' has woken up, and Cheng Qianfan will no longer secretly guard this photo studio.
Under normal circumstances, the security comrades led by Kang Erniu can completely handle it.
As the Central Patrol Room was indeed conducting an arrest operation, he, the Third Patrol Inspector, must have known that, and all he needed to do was delay for a moment or two and give a timely warning, which would be enough to ensure the safety of 'Mr. Miao'.
The main reason why he had to protect him secretly before was because 'Mr. Miao' had not woken up and could not move.
In addition, there is a small situation. Over there, the owner of Tianya Photo Studio, Chang Shen, paid money to "bail out".
Chang Shu's relative, a man who claimed to be his cousin, spent 80 yuan to apply for "bail" for Chang Shu.
In addition to being able to make a lot of money from the eighty yuan, Chang Shu's cousin knew the rules very well and asked someone to send three small yellow croakers to Inspector Xiao Cheng in private.
Cheng Qianfan, who had always done things with money and had a good reputation, was very happy and promised to release him the next day and at dawn today, he would release him after work.
…
Cheng Qianfan held a flashlight in his hand and carefully checked the photo studio again.
Still nothing suspicious.
Cheng Qianfan smiled, this is interesting.
The reason why he suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the photo studio was because someone came to redeem Chang Shen.
Cheng Qianfan naturally made a thorough investigation when he chose to 'attack' Tianya Photo Studio.
The owner of the photo studio, Changshu, runs the shop by himself. He is an honest man and has no friends or relatives.
Even if you are caught by a patrol, you don't have to worry about someone coming to your door in the short term.
However, the current situation is that Chang Shen was only detained for three days before a so-called cousin came to the police station to lure him.
Although the cousin said that he had just returned to Shanghai and learned that his cousin had 'committed something', he quickly came to patrol the house redeemer.
This is too much of a coincidence.
Here at the Secret Service, we never believe in coincidences.
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan secretly became suspicious of this photo studio.
In order to avoid "accidentally injuring friendly troops", he did not notify the patrol room to conduct an inspection, but went to check it out himself.
This inspection was more careful than before the first 'move-in'.
Not to mention guns and ammunition, radio stations, documents that should not be there, magazines and the like, even during patrol searches, none of the ambiguous violations that could be punished or not were found.
Logically speaking, this is enough to show that there is nothing wrong with the photo studio.
However, in Cheng Qianfan's eyes, this just shows that there is something wrong with the photo studio.
The experience and tricks involved in patrolling and extorting merchants, eating and taking cards, have been tested over time, and ordinary stores cannot avoid them at all.
This small photo studio has perfectly avoided the problems that patrols can find trouble with, which in itself is wrong.
This photo studio came into Inspector Xiao Cheng's sight.
…
Before preparing to evacuate, Cheng Qianfan closed the window and let in the wind.
Cheng Qianfan's heart moved.
Soon, he took action quickly.
After all his troubles, the photo studio felt like it had been robbed.
The house was turned into a mess, and valuables were swept away.
Finally, he artificially lowered his unlocking skills and used a rough method to open the door locks of each room.
After completing all this, Cheng Qianfan wrapped the "stolen items" in a sheet, quietly left the photo studio, and quickly disappeared into the pre-dawn night.
…
"Brother Lu, it's good morning." Li Hao held the pancake wrapped in brown paper in his hand and ate it as he walked into the arresting hall.
Da Toulu pinched a piece of fried fish and put it in his mouth.
He has had breakfast and is not hungry.
It was just a way to express my closeness to Li Hao, the inspector's confidant.
"The inspector hasn't gotten up yet?" Li Hao asked in a low voice.
"Nothing." Da Toulu said.
After the fighting between the Nationalist Army and the Japanese, the entire French Concession was on full alert. Patrol Chief Cheng Qianfan set an example and came to the patrol house before dawn for several days in a row.
Inspector Xiao Cheng's theory is that before dawn is the time when things are most likely to happen, so he doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't come to the patrol room in person to keep an eye on things.
Of course, what Cheng Qianfan meant by personally watching was coming to his office and continuing to sleep.
However, since he is a patrol commander, it is already extraordinary to have such a gesture. No one will blame him, and will only give a thumbs up to the patrol commander Xiao Cheng.
"I'll go take a look." Li Hao raised the aluminum lunch box in his hand and said with a smile.
He brought breakfast to Cheng Qianfan.
"Brother Fan, are you up?" Li Hao gently knocked on the door of the inspector's office.
no respond.
He knocked harder.
"What a fool! Are you kidding a little red guy?" There was a curse coming from inside.
"Inspector, I am Li Hao."
About half a minute later, the sound of walking was heard inside. Cheng Qianfan, wearing a white shirt and police uniform, looked tired and yawned as he opened the door.
"You can't let me have a comfortable sleep in my cage." Cheng Qianfan cursed.
"It's getting late." Li Hao closed the door and placed the aluminum lunch box on the table, "The fried rice and glutinous rice cake are still hot."
"It's dry and heart-burning." Cheng Qianfan took one look at it and complained, "Go across the street and get me a bowl of wontons later."
"Okay." Li Hao said, as diligent as a little bee, going in and out to help Cheng Qianfan get toothbrushing water and face wash.
Cheng Qianfan brushed his teeth and deliberately made noise while washing his face.
"There are some things in Third Grandma's Alley. You can get them out in a day or two, find a skilled hand to deal with them, and then get rid of them." Cheng Qianfan said in a low voice.
"yes."
"Keep an eye out to see if anyone inquires about these things."
"clear."
"There's something wrong with Tianya Photo Studio. Keep an eye on it."
"Do you need me to arrange people in the group?"
"Zhitou and the others," Cheng Qianfan said.
Li Hao nodded and understood.
"What progress is there with Lu Qixiang?" Cheng Qianfan picked up the towel, twisted it hard, and asked in a low voice.
Lu Qixiang is Lu Xiaoming's father, and Lu Xiaoming is Xiaobao's classmate, the primary school student who used the word "eight dogs" to curse others.
"Qiao Chuntao arranged for Zhou Xiliang to lead people to keep an eye on it. There is nothing abnormal for the time being."
"Zhou Xiliang doesn't have to go to class?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
Zhou Xiliang is the deputy leader of the Intelligence Group, and his current legal identity is a Chinese teacher at a school in Yangjingbang.
"There is a war. Although classes at Zhou Xiliang's school have not been suspended, people are panicked. Some teachers and students have already asked for leave," Li Hao said.
Cheng Qianfan nodded, picked up the comb, took out a small mirror from the drawer, and combed his hair in front of the mirror.
After a while, I sat down, took two bites of breakfast, and shouted outside, "Deputy Inspector Lu, come here."
