Chapter 397 Notorious Inspector Xiao Cheng (please subscribe and vote)
"What happened?" Cheng Qianfan tied up Feng Ji buckle, put on his horse boots, put on his police cap, tidied up the gun belt, and asked casually.
"The Japanese bombed the concession." Hou Pingliang said.
"Where did it explode?" Cheng Qianfan walked straight towards the door, and the waiters along the way stopped to bow and salute.
"Two bombs fell in the British and American concessions." Hou Pingliang stepped forward to help Commander Xiao Cheng push the door open, "It is said that many people died."
"The Japanese are brave enough." Cheng Qianfan muttered.
A black car was parked on the side of the road. Datou Lu saw Xiao Cheng grow out, got out of the car quickly and opened the car door himself.
Cheng Qianfan nodded and got into the back seat.
Datou Lu got on the co-pilot.
Hou Pingliang and another policeman stood on the pedals on both sides of the car, holding batons, using this as a warning.
"Bang." The driver pressed the horn twice and the car drove quickly.
Along the way, you can see panic, like a headless fly running around.
Cheng Qianfan frowned. He understood that this was why Qin Detai convened all the inspectors to return to the arresting hall for a meeting.
Although the British and American concessions were thrown, not French concessions, this is an extremely bad precedent.
This also broke the psychological barriers for citizens to not dare to take action against the concessions by the Japanese.
Once the concession is no different from the Chinese, the Japanese still dare to throw bombs unscrupulously, which has a great psychological impact on the citizens of the concession.
Many people will once again fall into despair and fear dominated by the war.
In this case, the market will inevitably become chaotic.
...
"Brother Lu, tell me the specific situation." Cheng Qianfan said to Datou Lu.
"Yes." Datou Lu immediately reported the situation.
About half an hour ago, Japanese bombers first dropped a bomb on Church Road interrupted in the public concession and directly hit a building in the US Navy. The bomb directly penetrated from the roof of the third floor and fell into the bottom floor.
"The Americans are lucky, and the bomb did not explode." said Datou Lu.
Immediately afterwards, a Japanese bomb fell on Nanjing Road, directly penetrated the third-floor balcony of Xianshi Department Store, and exploded immediately.
At that time, Xianshi Department Store and Xianshi Amusement Park were crowded with people, and many citizens who took their children to go shopping and play gathered here.
Yong'an Department Store, Xianshi Department Store, amusement park and nearby stores suffered heavy casualties.
"It is said that there are about a thousand people who died or injured." Datou Lu said with a serious expression. "There are blockbusters in citizens. In addition, the most important thing is that more than a dozen people were killed or injured by the police who manage traffic lights and direct traffic, and dozens of foreigners were killed or injured. The British and Americans were very angry."
Yes, the British and American public concessions were extremely angry about the bombing tragedy. The most important reason was the heavy casualties of the police and foreigners, especially the latter.
After passing a tobacco shop, Cheng Qianfan glanced through the car window and glanced at the telephone pole at the door of the tobacco shop, and quickly looked away.
Cheng Qianfan returned to No. 22 Xuehuali Road.
Qin Detai, the general general manager of the Central Police Station, held an emergency meeting.
First of all, the Ministry of Industry and Technology Bureau’s emergency notice, the French Concession authorities encouraged and condemned the Japanese army’s bad behavior of bombing the British and American public concessions, announced that the French Concession and the public concession would “go together” and urged the Japanese side to severely punish the perpetrators and give a reasonable explanation.
Subsequently, Qin Detai read out the order of the police chief Fegerson.
The various police stations in the French Concession have strengthened patrols, but some scoundrels have caused chaos and used the key points in troubled times, allowing the police to shoot and kill them directly.
In fact, the market is already in chaos, with thieves and sluts spreading rumors that the Japanese were going to bomb Xia Feilu, deliberately creating chaos and taking the opportunity to rob the store.
The police station of Xiafeilu Police Station was not in time to respond. At first, he was attacked by rioters, causing two policemen to be killed and injured. Although the police later shot and shot and killed five rioters and arrested three people, several stores in Xiafeilu were already in a mess and were trapped in the sea of fire.
If the fire station had not come quickly, Xia Fei Road would have been trapped in a fire.
...
After the meeting, Qin Detai left Cheng Qianfan to speak.
"Your master Ma Yishou performed poorly and is likely to be dismissed." Qin Detai said.
"Have you settled?" Cheng Qianfan said worriedly, "If there is any mistake, please help Mr. Qin to clear it up. Qianfan and his master are very grateful."
"Supervisor Feigeson is very angry." Qin Detai shook his head.
A bombing tragedy occurred in the public concession, and there were thugs who immediately caused chaos on Xiafeilu, which made French Concession police chief Feigeson extremely dissatisfied with him. He had great doubts about the ability of the commander of Xiafeilu, Ma Yishou, who could not control the situation at the first time.
Cheng Qianfan remained silent.
Qin Detai glanced at him and was quite satisfied with Cheng Qianfan's willingness to try to pull the horse and guard him. No one would dislike his subordinates who valued love and friendship.
"There is no room for reversal in this matter." Qin Detai said, "If Lu Dazhang had not appeared in time and led the police to shoot and kill two thugs, controlling the scene, the situation would be unimaginable."
"Lu Dazhang?" Cheng Qianfan looked at General Chief Qin in shock. It turned out to be Lu Dazhang?
"I didn't expect it." Qin Detai also smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Lu Dazhang was dismissed from his post in poor work, and his master was given the position of Commander Xia Feilu. This time, Lu Dazhang might have to step on the master and kill him back." Cheng Qianfan sighed, but in fact he was shocked.
"You go and meet Ma Yishou, have a drink with him, and tell him that he was my subordinate, and I will remember his affairs in my heart. If you have the chance, you will think of him." Qin Detai patted Cheng Qianfan on the shoulder and said.
"Mr. Qin is caring for you, Qianfan thanks you on behalf of his master." Cheng Qianfan showed a touch of emotion and said salutingly.
Cheng Qianfan left the General Administration Office and did not go downstairs immediately.
Instead, he went directly to the office of the deputy squad leader of the Political Department's investigation squad, Lieutenant Pitt, asked Lieutenant Pitt for the car keys, and borrowed his Citroen.
...
Ma Yishou has two houses, one on Father Jin Road, Central District and the other on Maggie Road, Mailan District.
After being transferred from the Central District to the Inspector General of Xiafei Road, Xiafei District, French Concession, Ma Yishou lived at his home on Maqi Road, because Maqi Road is closer to Xiafei District.
Qiao Chuntao asked for a pot of tea, sat at the tea stall, ate melon seeds, and listened to a blind man playing the erhu.
After Master Abing became famous in Shanghai, it seemed that many blind men wearing sunglasses and playing erhu came out of Shanghai.
Qiao Chuntao is waiting.
He had just arrived at the agreed location and did not see Cheng Qianfan, so he came here to wait.
This is a plan explained in advance by the team leader.
If you see an emergency signal suddenly appearing on the telephone pole at the entrance of the smoky store, the action will be terminated immediately and all team members will enter a dormant state.
If he does not see an emergency signal, he only needs to come here to wait and wait for the secondary connector.
...
A French Citroen car drove over.
Qiao Chuntao looked up and saw that this was Lieutenant Pitt's car from the Political Department of the Central District Police Station. He recognized this license plate.
An old man was about to cross the road, but hesitated.
Halfway through the road, I stood there.
The driver of this car's first reaction was a little slow and almost hit the old man.
Then, the car continued to drive forward for dozens of steps. The door opened. Commander Xiao Cheng took the whip down. The whip tip pointed at the old man and cursed, "Tell me, an old turtle, I'm looking for death."
The old man was already scared, but he was scolded again, so scared that he sat on the ground.
Everyone's attention was attracted.
Seeing this, a man in a green cloth coat scolded Commander Xiao Cheng for his bad behavior of bullying the old man, and then was directly whipped.
The man was angry and pointed at the nose of the governor Xiao Cheng and continued to scold him.
The onlookers quickly persuaded him, and some people even covered the man's mouth, and some people asked Mr. Xiao Cheng to be a lot of people, so they should not be as knowledgeable as this person.
Commander Xiao Cheng sneered, poked the man's glasses at the tip of the whip. The glasses fell to the ground. He went straight up and stepped on the lenses. He also crushed the horse boots hard, and then strolled away.
