Cheng Qianfan and Li Cuiqun came to the main entrance of Licha Hotel together.
Li Cuiqun looked at his deceased subordinate who was lying on his back on the ground, with many bullets in his body, and his dead man had a cold back. If he hadn't been careful enough to choose to enter through the side door, Li Cuiqun would be lying on the ground at this moment.
Cheng Qianfan looked at the deceased. The deceased's hairstyle and body shape were three-point similar to that of Li Cuiqun, but it was not easy to be confused. Not to mention that he was a person who was familiar with Li Cuiqun, even those who had seen Li Cuiqun's photos would never make mistakes.
Liu Yuchu was shooting from a long distance. Because of the distance, Liu Yuchu might have misjudged the person, but this is the role of arranging Bai Xiaoxiao to welcome guests at the door to verify.
The white shrimp will never make any mistakes.
Since you can't make a mistake, Bai Xiaoxiao will not send a signal of action, so-
These two shots were not fired by Liu Yuchu!
He glanced at the other waiters and the doorman, and was frightened by the white shrimp hiding not far away. The latter looked horrified and shook his head in slightest.
This confirms Cheng Qianfan's speculation.
It wasn't Liu Yuchu's gun, so who is it?
...
Cheng Qianfan looked at Li Cuiqun with a solemn expression.
"My person." Li Cuiqun said.
Cheng Qianfan squatted down, looked carefully at the appearance of the deceased, and then looked at Li Cuiqun, revealing a thoughtful expression.
However, he did not say anything, but checked the deceased's muzzle, "A shot in the lower abdomen, a shot in the chest, and another shot, which should be a refill."
Cheng Qianfan stood up, shook his head, frowned and looked at Li Cuiqun, "Senior, this is going to kill you!"
Li Cuiqun's face was as deep as water.
"Sir, I shot from the third floor of Broadway." A spy ran over to report to Li Cuiqun, "There are already Japanese soldiers on Broadway."
Cheng Qianfan's heart moved. The other party chose to use the third floor of Broadway as the shooting point, which was the same as his previous plan. This was a veteran of action.
"If seniors need it, please speak up." He looked at Li Cuiqun and said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, if you really need it, you will naturally not be polite to me." Li Cuiqun nodded.
If such a thing happened, the meeting naturally became a "premature death".
Li Cuiqun and Cheng Qianfan said a few words, and asked him to help find Ou Yingchun from the former detective brigade. Cheng Qianfan naturally agreed.
Seeing Li Cuiqun, who was as gloomy as water, pounced towards Broadway with his subordinates, Cheng Qianfan also had a solemn expression.
"Brother Fan, you have notified your brothers." Li Hao came over and said.
An assassination occurred. Although the opponent's target was Li Cuiqun, "Mr. Xiao Cheng" was also scared. He did not choose to take the risk of leaving, but instead ordered Li Hao to call and summon people to rescue him.
Nowadays, "Xiao Cheng" lacks a sense of security.
Cheng Qianfan nodded.
"What does it smell?" He suddenly frowned, covered his nose, turned his head to look, but saw Bai Xiaoxiao hiding not far away, with a pool of water under his crotch.
Cheng Qianfan waved his hand, looked at the doorman who was scared to pee his pants in disgust, and cursed "Search to the Donkey" in his mouth.
Such a bad shooting at the entrance of Licha Hotel was even more shocked to Mr. Xiao Cheng. Even though he had a Japanese boss as his backer, the new manager of the hotel still did not dare to neglect him and came to comfort Mr. Xiao Cheng himself and said that he had opened the best room and asked Mr. Xiao Cheng to rest to suppress his shock.
When it comes to "suppressing shock", the manager's eyes flashed and he had some meaning.
"I'm old when I meet Chi Lao." Cheng Qianfan cursed and went to rest with the manager.
...
Li Cuiqun's face looked very ugly.
When the Japanese soldiers from Paramount saw the spies running up with their guns, they almost opened fire and fired.
Li Cuiqun hurriedly sent someone to contact him. After reporting to his house, the other party said he didn't know him at all.
It was not until he stepped forward and said the name of Dong San in Shimizu that the Japanese soldiers put down their guns.
However, Li Cuiqun is still not allowed to bring people in.
Li Cuiqun was both frustrated and helpless. Although he and Dingmutun were received by senior Japanese generals like Tu Feiyuan and had the intention of "entrusting them to be used with them", the current situation is that a Japanese soldier could control him.
Fortunately, not far from this place is the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai, which belongs to the "security-controlled area for public security". Soon a team of Japanese police officers arrived.
This is the pressure on Britain and the United States after the Japanese army occupied the Chinese territory in Shanghai. The United Kingdom and the United States had to agree that the Japanese army had sent a large number of Japanese police officers in the Japanese-controlled areas of the public concession. In fact, most of these Japanese in police uniforms were active Japanese soldiers, including some gendarmeries.
After Li Cuiqun was blocked from entering, he called Dong San from Shimizu of the Consulate General. At this moment, Dong San from Shimizu arrived accompanied by Cymbun.
Seeing that Tingmutun appeared with Qingshui Dong San, Li Cuiqun sneered in his heart and his expression remained unchanged.
"Suigao, is it okay?" Cymmuntun asked with concern.
"Good luck, escape the disaster." Li Cuiqun smiled bitterly.
"This happened!" Dong San of Shimizu said with a calm face.
He was very angry.
Although Dong San Kimizu believes that Dingmutun is more valuable, this does not mean that he completely gave up on Li Cuiqun. In Dong San Kimizu's plan, Ding, who has a higher position within the National Party, is the main and Li is the auxiliary, which is a very suitable combination.
Therefore, Dong San Qingshui still cares about Li Cuiqun's life.
What's more, this place is next to the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai. Such as the assassination occurred, which is extremely bad in nature and has a very serious impact.
When Shimizu Dong San made a speech, the Japanese soldiers finally agreed to Li Cuiqun's men enter the Broadway building with the Japanese police.
However, it was too late.
...
"If the Japanese allowed us to go in earlier, we might be able to block the gunman." Zhang Lu said angrily.
Li Cuiqun shook his head gently, his face gloomy, "The other party is prepared, they are more familiar with the terrain than us."
As he said that, his fingers gently tapped the table, "I can't stop it."
At this time, Li Cuiqun, who had found nothing, had returned to No. 67, Daxi Road.
According to preliminary investigation, a car drove out from the south gate of Broadway shortly after the gunshot.
In addition, two spears left by the gunman were found in a room on the east side of the third floor.
It is speculated that the other party decisively discarded the weapon and went downstairs after completing the shooting, and then took a car that had been prepared long ago, leaving the south gate before the exits of the building was blocked, which had not been opened or guarded by soldiers:
The lock on the south gate was smashed open and the car rushed out directly.
At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door.
The door was knocked.
"Suigao, is it inside?"
It is the sound of Tsumun.
"Brother Ding, please come quickly." Li Cuiqun hurriedly stepped forward and personally helped Dingmutun open the door.
He winked at Zhang Lu, who quickly retreated, leaving two old men to discuss in secret in the office.
...
"Why did Suigao go to Licha Hotel at this time?" Dingmutun handed a cigarette to Li Cuiqun.
‘Can you care where I go?’
Li Cuiqun was very angry, especially the scene of Tingmutun and Qingshui Dong Sanyi appearing together in his mind, he was even more indifferent to the anger-
This shows that when he called Shimizu Dong San, Tsun was in Shimizu Dong San's office!
Li Cuiqun took the cigarette roll, took out the lighter, turned the gears to light it, and smoked silently, but did not answer the question of Tumun.
Tsingumun was not in a hurry, and was smoking a cigarette slowly.
"I made an appointment with Cheng Qianfan from the French Concession to meet and discuss some things." Li Cuiqun blew up the ashes and said.
"What are you talking about?" Dingmutun asked immediately. Seeing Li Cuiqun's face turn gloomy, he smiled, "It's not that I'm rude, it's important for my brother to be assassinated, and no details should be missed."
As he said that, he took a sip of cigarettes, "Of course, if it is a private matter, I should not say anything about it."
"It's nothing to say." Li Cuiqun smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Cheng Qianfan is in the French Concession and asked him to meet him because he wanted to ask him to help investigate the whereabouts of a suspicious person."
Tsingmutun nodded, but did not ask who the "suspicious person" mentioned by Li Cuiqun was.
He sneered in his heart, asking Cheng Qianfan to help him check the people is probably just a matter of saying that Li Cuiqun should want to win over Cheng Qianfan.
This 'Xiao Cheng' is said to be Li Cuiqun's junior, and he has such a relationship...
What if Li Cuiqun really wins over Cheng Qianfan?
Dingmutun's heart sank.
This is naturally not good news for him.
Cheng Qianfan’s energy and influence in the French Concession needless to say.
Tingmetun also learned about a situation from Dong San Kimizu. The relationship between this "Mr. Xiao Cheng" and the Japanese was closer than outsiders imagined. It is said that Cheng Qianfan had some information about why he was attracted to the eyes of Counselor Imamura Hitaro and was quite popular.
At present, he has secret support from Shimizu Dong San, while Li Cuiqun has two shortcomings. One is that Li has a small influence within the National Party, and the other is that Li Cuiqun has no reliable support from the Japanese.
If Li Cuiqun successfully wins over Cheng Qianfan, and then climbs up to Imamura Hitaro's high branch through Cheng Qianfan...
When Tingmutun's heart moved, he naturally couldn't watch the matter happening.
"Brother Suigao." Dingmutun said in contemplation, "How many people know about this meeting between you and Cheng Qianfan?"
"What does Brother Ding mean?" Li Cuiqun's eyes flashed and looked at Tingmutun.
"Is it possible that it is Cheng Qianfan..." Dingmutun said slowly.
"Absolutely," Li Cuiqun shook his head, "You know Liu Wen, who was killed by a gunman. This person is just a bit similar to me, but in fact his appearance is very different."
He knocked out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, "Cheng Qianfan knows my appearance. If he had commanded this matter, the gunman would not have killed the wrong person."
It is naturally impossible for Li Cuiqun to have no doubt about the process of Qianfan.
In fact, at the moment of the gun being fired, his first reaction was to suspect Cheng Qianfan's head.
However, after a quick thought, Li Cuiqun denied Cheng Qianfan's doubts.
One of them is the reason he told Li Cuiqun.
Another reason is that Li Cuiqun witnessed Cheng Qianfan getting out of the car and hearing the facial expressions and words and deeds after the gun was fired, which all showed their astonishment at the sudden sound of the gunshots, as well as Cheng Qianfan's concern for his safety.
Not only Cheng Qianfan, but also Cheng Qianfan's driver's reaction also shows that this point cannot be performed.
"Suigao, I know you are particularly sincere to your friend, but you must be careful of being blinded." Dingmutun frowned and persuaded.
"I understand Brother Ding's kindness." Li Cuiqun said, "But I believe Cheng Qianfan, this matter has nothing to do with him."
He also understood that he had come here. Dingmutun's move was deliberately trying to lay a thorn between him and Cheng Qianfan.
The "friendship" between people is the most incapable of torture and suspicion.
Why is this happening in Cymutetun?
Isn't you want to see him get closer to Cheng Qianfan?
Li Cuiqun thought quickly. He really intended to take this opportunity to bring the relationship between Tongcheng Qianfan closer.
Cheng Qianfan's power and influence in the French Concession made him covet.
Yes, this is exactly what Cumuten doesn't want to see.
However, the style of conduct of Tingmutun is like a smiling tiger. He has never been so straightforward and rough. This speech is equivalent to directly slandering Cheng Qianfan, which is too fucking.
What is the reason for Tymuteun to have such an "abnormal" behavior?
Li Cuiqun couldn't figure it out for a moment, but his intuition told him that there must be something strange about it.
...
Li Cuiqun insisted that Cheng Qianfan had no problem, so Dingmutun smiled and said nothing.
Although Li Cuiqun is so decisive, with his understanding of this person, it is hard to say what he thinks in his heart.
There are some words that need not be repeated, he believes that the thorn has been successfully planted.
The two of them exchanged their conversations on this matter for a while, but there were no definite clues or conclusions. Dingmutun reminded Li Cuiqun to rest well, and then left.
...
"Old fox!" Li Cuiqun snorted coldly.
He leaned back, leaned against the back of the chair, and rubbed his temples.
Immediately, Li Cuiqun's face became very ugly, his expression became more gloomy, and a vicious light flashed in his eyes.
"Military Command!"
"Dress the spring breeze!"
Li Cuiqun gritted his teeth.
He was 90% sure that the assassination was done by the Military Commission.
He picked up the phone and microphone casually, and Li Cuiqun asked for a phone number.
Soon, the phone was connected.
"Brother Jing, thank you." Li Cuiqun said in a deep voice.
"Brother Li's words made me..." Jing Muyun said with a smile on the other end of the phone. Then, his voice changed, "Well? Brother Li, they took action? Are you okay?"
"It's so dangerous and I saved my life." Li Cuiqun snorted coldly and said, "Liu Wen is dead."
"Liu Wen? Oh!" Jing Muyun said 'oh', and I think this Liu Wen is the person who provided him with the photo Li Cuiqun.
Previously, Yu Zhengze from the Shanghai Station of the Military Control Commission found him and asked him for photos of Li Cuiqun.
He first pretended to refuse to take time to make photos, and then secretly informed Li Cuiqun.
When Li Cuiqun learned that the Military Control Commission was going to attack him, he was shocked and angry, so he discussed with Jing Muyun and finally thought of such a way to provide fake photos to the Military Control Commission.
But I didn't expect that the photos were just provided there, and the Military Control Commission couldn't wait to start the battle after not too long.
"Dai Chunfeng, Dai Chunfeng, you miss me so much." Li Cuiqun secretly hated her. Although she had a more eye-catching target like Cymute Tun, Dai Chunfeng did not attack Cymute Tun, but attacked him first.
