Lost and Spy

Chapter 118 Inspector Nakano
A shocking case occurred in Zhengjin Bank, one was killed and one was injured, the president's son and another employee were kidnapped!

This news quickly shocked the entire Japanese overseas Chinese gathering area!
Nakano Taro, the Chief Detective of the Japanese Detective Office who was participating in the fellowship patrol in the public concession, quickly returned to the area where Japanese overseas Chinese gathered, and rushed to the scene of the crime as soon as possible.

Can speak Japanese with a dignified Kyoto accent... Everyone wears a weird mask... Quick action and skillful coordination...

This is the clue Nakano Taro currently has.

Just before he came, he also got a piece of information that Yin Kesheng, the leader of the Youth Gang in Shanghai, and his eight apprentices were all shot dead, and none of them survived.

The murderer also wore a strange mask.

Then, Yin Kesheng's shooting and Zhengjin Bank's robbery were done by the same group.

The Japanese Consul General in Shanghai also sent his assistant, Yuta Sakamoto, to personally inquire about the progress of the case.

Taro Nakano stood at the door of the vault, looked at it for a while, then squatted down, picked up a used match from the ground, and put it in front of his eyes for a while.

In the vault, Taro Nakano and his assistants searched very carefully.

Two cigarette butts, and an empty, squashed cigarette case.

Every physical evidence may become the key to solve the case...

……

In the office, Ishijima Hiroshi and Sakamoto Yuta who comforted him stood there. They didn't dare to destroy the crime scene, so they could only stand there.

And Morita Kumaya stood behind them with a mournful face.

"Shidao-kun, your son will definitely be rescued." That's all Yuta Sakamoto could say.

rescued?
My son's life and death are uncertain now, how can I save him?
"Your Excellency Shidao."

Morita Kuma also hesitated for a moment: "Yin Kesheng was killed, and now Chong is also kidnapped. Could it be related to what we did in Nanjing?"

"Yeah, I've considered it too." Shi Daokuan's face was gloomy: "Yin Kesheng's death and the robbery of the bank were all done by the same group, but there were five people who went to Nanjing, and three of Yin Kesheng's subordinates were safe and sound. , you are still standing here. Why did you only get kidnapped again? Not like, not like."

……

"I also want to bring Morita Kuma back and kill him."

Meng Shaoyuan stood there calmly, looking ahead, he returned to the question Yuan Zhonghe asked himself: "But in this case, even if we do it cleanly and all the murderers who killed Lao Mu are dead, the Japanese will definitely kill them." Connected together, two places are involved.

Yin Kesheng is the main messenger, without his order, his subordinates would not dare to do such a thing, so he deserves to die, must die.We have the names of his three men, and we can easily kill them after waiting a few months.As for Morita Kumaya?The next time I come to Shanghai, it will be the day of his death! "

"Team leader, everything is ready to avenge Lao Mu!"

"Let's go, Lao Mu is still watching us from the sky."

Meng Shaoyuan looked up at the sky, in the sky, as if he really saw that familiar face of Lao Mu...

……

Nakano Taro carefully found half of a snack on the desk, put it under his nose and smelled it.

"Your Excellency Nakajima, do you have any clues?" Shi Daokuan asked impatiently: "The gang of robbers ransacked the entire bank, even my office!"

Nakano Taro did not rush to answer immediately, but pointed to the desk and asked, "Is there something here?"

"Yes, a pen, and a watch."

"The robbers didn't even let this go, which shows their greed." Nakano Taro said calmly: "This should be a complete robbery, and they won't let go of anything valuable. I heard Even bank staff were robbed of their belongings. I have been in this business for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen such greed.”

After finishing speaking, he sneered:
"The gang of robbers acted quickly, and it took only ten minutes before and after. However, no matter how perfect the robbery is, there will always be evidence. In the vault, I found matches, cigarette butts, and an empty cigarette case.

Did you notice this match?It is thinner and shorter than ordinary matches. In the International Settlement, there is only one kind of match like this, and that is produced by the Empire of Japan.

As we all know, the empire's resources are limited, and everything is based on conservation. Each match can save some materials, and it can accumulate a lot of resources for the empire.

The two butts, and the empty pack, were from a pack of ten 'Cherry' cigarettes produced by the Reich.In the International Settlement, there are two brands of cigarettes in Japan, one is the "Sun" brand produced by Toyo Tobacco, which is specially exported to China, and the other is the "Cherry" brand which is mainly smoked by Japanese expatriates.

His Excellency Shidao told me that the person who pretended to be 'Matsudaira Jun' spoke Japanese with an authentic Kyoto accent and knew the Japanese economy like the back of his hand. Coupled with these clues I found, I came up with a bold idea, 'Matsudaira Jun' Could it be a real Japanese? "

"impossible!"

Yuta Sakamoto was the first to call out: "No Japanese would do such a shameless thing!"

"I'm speaking from a just standpoint. There are criminals in Japan, otherwise there would be no prisons." Nakano Taro took out the half of the snack he found:
"I have eaten this kind of dim sum. It is produced in Hokkaido. It is made of dried fish mixed with a lot of wasabi. It is especially popular among Japanese people. But dried fish with a strong mustard flavor is not suitable for people outside of Japan. taste.

This reminds me of a case that happened in Japan.In Showa [-], there was a robbery in Yokohama, Japan. One of the five robbers was killed and three were captured, but the last one and the stolen money were never caught.

Let me imagine again, where did the last robber hide for so many years?Will he travel across the ocean and come to China?He committed the case in Yokohama, and the headquarters of Zhengjin Bank is also located in Yokohama. Is there any relationship between the two? "

Ishijima Hiroshi and Sakamoto Yuta glanced at each other.

"By the way, the leader of the robbers once slipped his tongue and called 'Old Zhang'. He should be one of the robbers." Shi Daokuan remembered this incident.

Nakano Taro didn't say anything, he carefully paved the empty cigarette case.

On the outside of the cigarette case, he found several numbers written on it:

"9, 12, 26, 37..."

What do you mean?
Nakano Taro frowned tightly.

"The case must be solved as soon as possible." Yuta Sakamoto frowned and said, "Your Excellency the Consul General attaches great importance to this case, and we must try our best to rescue Shidao again. Your Excellency Nakano, please contact the police department to see if you can analyze it." Let’s look at the common ground between the two cases.”

"I will, I will."

Nakano Taro answered a little absent-mindedly.

What do these numbers mean?
Will it be a clue to solve the case?

But at least on the surface, there seems to be no connection between numbers and numbers.

There must be some meaning.

Nakano Taro is very sure of his judgment.
