My years of espionage

Chapter 1031 Candidates

Cheng Qianfan drank the meat porridge in the bowl slowly.

His mind was already thinking about the plan to get rid of Naito Kotsuba.

The decision to do it at the TEDA apartment was not out of will.

Almost when he made this decision, he already had several reasons in his mind to support this decision.

It is rare to be 'approved' to do something to the 'Japanese compatriots', Cheng Qianfan wants to maximize the value of Naito Xiaoyi's death.

Faced with the aggressiveness of the Japanese, the French Concession authorities retreated step by step.

This kind of situation not only brings great inconvenience and safety hazards to those who hide in the French Concession and persists in resisting the Japanese, but also has an extremely bad and subtle influence. Concession, some ordinary people will have a kind of pessimism and despair that cannot see the sun——

Even the French are afraid of the Japanese!
Is China really going to die? !

In this case, the 'rumor' that 'President Xiao Cheng' killed a Japanese, and he was a Japanese diplomat, no matter what the inside story was, the Japanese had nothing to do with Cheng Qianfan.

Cheng Qianfan will also secretly send people to make a fuss, emphasizing that on the one hand, it is because Xiao Cheng has always had a good relationship with Japan, and the Japanese have no hard evidence that Cheng Qianfan sent people to do it. The "Xiao Cheng Boss" who was the backer did it.

This is also a boost to the morale of the people in the French Concession.

For Zhang Xiaolin, including No. 76, Zhang Xiaolin of the New Asia Peace Promotion Association, and even other major forces in Shanghai, Cheng Qianfan, who killed the Japanese diplomats and survived, is undoubtedly even more mysterious. Any plot against him must be weighed in advance.

This is to kill chickens and monkeys.

Or maybe it was a fox pretending to be a tiger, he cleverly took advantage of the acquiescence of Imamura Heutaro.

……

"Brother Fan, do you want to inform Jiang Mule to send someone back to the concession?" Li Hao asked, he didn't ask why Brother Fan decided to do it in the TEDA apartment. Since Brother Fan has decided, Brother Fan has his own reasons, and it is in Li Hao's heart , I am also very excited about the choice of Brother Fan's hands-on location——

It's just killing a Japanese dog. Only in this way can he be worthy of the status of the famous "Mr. Xiao Cheng" in the French Concession!

Cheng Qianfan thought seriously.

The most capable operational force in the special situation group is Jiang Mule's special operations team.

"Brother Fan, Vice Captain Lu was a master of action when he was in Shanghai." Li Hao suddenly thought of Lu Xingge, the ace killer of the military command, and suggested.

"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head.

Luxingo is not suitable.

It's not just that Lu Xingge is inappropriate, anyone in the Shanghai Special Affairs Team is not suitable to be involved in this operation.

"This matter cannot have anything to do with the special situation team." Cheng Qianfan said solemnly.

After thinking for a while, Li Hao immediately understood the reason, and nodded in admiration, "Brother Fan is still thoughtful."

He drank the preserved egg and lean meat porridge in two gulps, wiped his mouth, and said thoughtfully, "Then Chen Hu is the most suitable to do it."

Chen Hu.

Cheng Qianfan pondered, but in fact he was also thinking about Chen Hu.

The reason why he didn't develop Chen Hu into the special case team was because of the current situation:
Chen Hu can be arranged to do things that are inconvenient for the special situation team to get involved in.

"Huzi is capable, and there are many brothers under him who are good at it." Cheng Qianfan said after thinking, "It's appropriate for him to do it."

Chen Hu is his man, and everyone in the French Concession knows it.

He wanted to get rid of Naito Kotsuba with a 'great fanfare', and he had considered not concealing that it was his people who did it, so as to have the greatest deterrent effect. Anyway, he himself would never admit that Naito's death had anything to do with him.

However, Cheng Qianfan had a feeling in his heart that Chen Hu might not be the most suitable candidate.

This is a kind of intuition, and he didn't think of anyone who is more suitable for this job for a while, but he just subconsciously felt that there was a more suitable candidate.

"Chen Hu should make preparations first." Cheng Qianfan said, "You inform Chen Hu and ask him to make a plan of action."

"Yes!"

"What's the progress of the police arrest operation against the military-controlled Shanghai area?" Cheng Qianfan also finished his meat porridge, watched Li Hao tidy up the dishes, and asked casually.

"Captain Pete led people from the Political Department to supervise the arrest operation. The Political Department deliberately delayed the time, and finally only cracked two units in the Shanghai area." Li Hao said, "Fifteen people were arrested. Forcibly detained seven people and did not agree to No. 76's extradition request."

Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly. This was the greatest possible effect he could use to secretly stimulate Pete by using Pete's sympathy for maintaining the glory of France, Pete's sympathy for China's anti-Japanese actions, and his disgust for the Japanese.

"Sort up the performance of each patrol room and each patrol in the arrest operation, and I want to listen to the report." Cheng Qianfan ordered.

This action of arresting anti-Japanese elements at the request of the Japanese and traitors was also a screening and test for the attitude of the high-level police officers in the French Concession and the middle-level police officers of the patrols towards Japan.

Being able to secretly grasp the attitude of the policemen towards the Japanese and fighting against Japan, not to mention whether to develop them to contribute to the resistance against Japan, but to grasp their attitudes, can save lives at critical moments.

"Hao Zi is doing this." Hao Zi said.

Cheng Qianfan nodded.

Although he had a grasp of the apparent attitude towards Japan of the top and second leaders of the six major patrol houses in the French Concession, it was hard to say what these people were thinking in private.

In addition, Cheng Qianfan believes that the attitude of the police officers at the inspector level in the patrol room is even more important than the inspector, deputy chief inspector, and chief inspector to a certain extent, because these police officers are the first-line people who lead the team to do things.

"Brothers are strictly ordered to hide and stand by, and no one should act rashly under the current situation." Cheng Qianfan said with a serious expression.

"Yes." Li Hao nodded, "I have already ordered you to go down."

He showed a thoughtful look, and asked, "Brother Fan, those people from the Shanghai area who were detained by Captain Pete are now being held in the target range (prison)."

"You must not have any contact with these people." Cheng Qianfan understood what Haozi was going to ask, and he said seriously, "I also said this to Haozai and others. Without my order, do not have any contact with these people, let alone go to inquire about."

His expression was serious, "Even if you see Pao Ze from Shanghai District dying in front of your own eyes, you still have to hold back."

"Understood." Li Hao nodded with difficulty.

……

"It's thrown off." Shao Mingkui wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a low voice.

A policeman suddenly searched the street where their apartment was located. They dared not stay in the apartment, so they climbed over the wall and left. They evaded the policeman who opened the card all the way through the alleys, and hid in the Hengtai Ballroom on McHevis Road.

Hengtai Ballroom is quite spacious. Entering the gate, there is an empty field on the left, and a corridor on the right, leading to the dance floor at the end of the corridor.

There is also a stall room for "fighting soldiers" on the left.

Shao Mingkui is quite familiar with this dance hall. He knows that the gambling stall of "Da Bing Ge" has a back door that few people know about. After leaving the back door, it is a dead-end alley. Moment can be used as a back road.

"Get rid of it." Zhan Hua nodded. He had been paying attention to whether there was a follower behind him just now.

Not long after the three sat down on the table near the dance floor, they suddenly saw a person walking into the dance hall.

Zhanhua was overjoyed, so he went up to say hello.

Cheng Xuyuan grabbed Zhan Hua.

"Don't move." Cheng Xuyuan said in a low voice.

"Boss Tan suspects that something happened to Boss Chen?" Shao Mingkui understood Cheng Xuyuan's meaning and asked in a low voice.

"Extreme times." Cheng Xuyuan said.

Naturally, he didn't have any evidence that something happened to Chen Mingchu, but he just subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

He took a look, and seeing Chen Mingchu looking around, his doubts added to his mind.

At this critical moment, isn't Chen Mingchu's sneaky appearance afraid of attracting suspicion?
A clatter.

When Zhan Hua sat down, his elbow accidentally touched the water glass on the table. Fortunately, he caught the glass with sharp eyesight and hands, but it still inevitably made a noise.

Oops.

Cheng Xuyuan's heart sank.

Sure enough, the movement here attracted the attention of Chen Mingchu who was looking around.

Chen Mingchu raised his eyes and saw Cheng Xuyuan and the three of them.

Naturally, he knew Cheng Xuyuan, and he also had an impression of Zhanhua from the district accounting team.

As for the man on the left of Cheng Xuyuan, Chen Mingchu didn't know him, but he had a vague guess that this person might be the Shao Mingkui who escaped from the chief arresting room of the public concession.

"Boss Tan." Chen Mingchu came up and shook hands with Cheng Xuyuan enthusiastically, "What a coincidence."

"Boss Chen, what a coincidence." Cheng Xuyuan said, and as he spoke, he leaned forward and lowered his voice, "Mingchu, you came just in time, and I'm going to try to notify you."

"What's wrong?" Chen Mingchu asked in confusion.

"Something went wrong." Cheng Xuyuan said, "There are traitors in the organization. I am notifying all departments to hide. You should also pay attention to safety here."

"What?" Chen Mingchu was taken aback, "Who is the traitor?"

"I don't know yet." Cheng Xuyuan shook his head, "Checking."

"Traitors, everyone can get them and punish them." Chen Mingchu gritted his teeth and asked, "How is Mr. Ling?"

Ling Qiuyun is the pseudonym of Zheng Lijun, the mayor of Shanghai District.

"Mr. Ling is fine." Cheng Xuyuan nodded.

Chen Mingchu nodded, and asked again, "Mr. Wang is with me, do you want to meet Mr. Wang?"

Cheng Xuyuan shook his head, "Brother Chen is not ignorant of my relationship with him. I don't want to see him. I will contact you when necessary."

"They all work for the party and the country. It's better to settle enemies than to end them." Chen Mingchu smiled wryly and persuaded.

As soon as Wang Tiemufu arrived in Shanghai, he took down Cheng Xuyuan's post as secretary, sent Cheng Xuyuan to work in the field, and promoted him to Chen Mingchu as secretary.

It can be said that Cheng Xuyuan's relationship with him and Wang Tiemu is not good, but he, Chen Mingchu, has a good temper, is good at making friends, and maintains a good face with Cheng Xuyuan. As for Wang Tiemu, he has already fallen out with Cheng Xuyuan.

"Let's go and see Mr. Wang. At this critical moment, Mr. Wang also said that we should put aside our previous suspicions and work together to tide over the difficulties." Chen Mingchu persuaded.

"I won't go today. Tell me Mr. Wang's address, and I'll see him next time." Cheng Xuyuan said.

Alarm bells were already ringing in his heart. Chen Mingchu's words made him suspicious. He understood Wang Tiemu's temperament. This person claimed to be a veteran of the military command, so he would not take the initiative to bow his head to reconcile with him.

"Okay then." Chen Mingchu hesitated, his expression unnatural, and he seemed to think about it before he told Wang Tiemu's address.

After finishing speaking, Chen Mingchu left on the grounds that he had something to do.

Cheng Xuyuan became suspicious, and he winked at Shao Mingkui, who immediately followed.

Shao Mingkui saw Chen Mingchu stopped on the corridor, facing the gate, with his back to the dance floor, whispering to a burly man.

Shao Mingkui was shocked, knowing that the situation was not good, he turned around and ran back, and called for the stall where Cheng Xuyuan and Zhan Hua rushed to "fight with soldiers".

The inside was crowded, and the gamblers were fighting with red eyes.

Cheng Xuyuan shouted in his heart, "Mr. Xiao Cheng is here to arrest someone."

Shao Mingkui understood, and immediately shouted, "Run, Cheng Qianfan is here to arrest someone."

Everyone was shocked.

Because the dance hall and gambling stalls belonged to Zhang Xiaolin, "Mr. Xiao Cheng" had a feud with Zhang Xiaolin, and if he had a whim one day, he would send patrols to search and arrest people.

All the gambling money was confiscated, the personnel were seized, and a high bail was required to avoid disaster.

Therefore, what the people here are most afraid of is that 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' and Zhang Xiaolin will quarrel again, which will bring disaster to Chi Yu.

Suddenly, the scene was chaotic.

The table was knocked over, gambling equipment and banknotes were scattered all over the place, making the situation even more chaotic.

Shao Mingkui was powerful, he led Cheng Xuyuan and Zhanhua through the crowd and went straight to the back door.

Out the back door, climbed over the low wall, and entered the main road extending in all directions.

In order to avoid attracting people's attention, several people parked the car far away on purpose. Now it seems that this is a wise decision. The three of them made a circle, found a parking place, and drove away quickly.

The three of them drove away all the way, and everyone was slightly shocked.

"Chen Mingchu is definitely a traitor." Shao Mingkui cursed angrily.

Shao Mingkui, who was determined to avenge the murdered relatives and friends, hated the traitors the most. He couldn't imagine how these soft-boned guys thought that they could kneel down and be dogs to the Japanese who killed their relatives and compatriots.

"It must be reported to Chongqing immediately." Cheng Xuyuan said with a serious expression.

Chen Mingchu used to be the secretary of the Shanghai station, and even the head of the personnel department of the Shanghai station. This person is too familiar with the Shanghai area. Once such a person becomes a traitor, the harm to the Shanghai area will be too great.

He took Shao Mingkui and the two of them to hide in Tibet. The reason why he didn't go back to meet up with his wife and children was because he was afraid that they would be targeted by the enemy and be followed and hurt the family.

However, facing this unexpected situation now, Cheng Xuyuan had to go back to see Guiqian, and ordered his wife to send a report to Chongqing to report Chen Mingchu's treason against the country.

Not only Chen Mingchu, Cheng Xuyuan also had another worry in his heart.

That is Wang Tiemu.

Chen Mingchu and Wang Tiemu got close. If Chen Mingchu became a traitor, he would be the first to confess to Wang Tiemu. Cheng Xuyuan suspected that Wang Tiemu might have fallen into the enemy's hands.

As for whether Wang Tiemu was also a traitor like Chen Mingchu?
Cheng Xuyuan shook his head, although he and Wang Tiemu had deep conflicts, but based on what he knew about Wang Tiemu, this person was a tough guy, so he shouldn't be the generation who forgot his ancestors.

Cheng Qianfan glanced at the big head Lu who knocked on the door and came in to report on his work, and his heart skipped a beat.
