My years of espionage

Chapter 491 Locked (seeking Subscription Asking Monthly Pass)
Of course, if the situation is really dangerous, Cheng Qianfan needs to evacuate urgently.

Lao Huang will send out the agreed warning signal in advance.

When Cheng Qianfan saw the warning signal outside the patrol room, he would evacuate early.

This kind of direct code warning is the last choice in extreme cases, for example, when Lao Huang has no time to use objects to warn:

Warn Cheng Qianfan, order him to break through and flee immediately.

Even Lao Huang would stand up to fight the enemy and cover Cheng Qianfan's retreat.

Among the three members of the 'French Concession Party Group', 'Huo Miao' is the most important. At the critical moment, both 'Yu Chang' and 'Flying Fish' are prepared and determined to sacrifice their lives to rescue 'Huo Miao'.

It's not about who is more precious than whose life, but who survives the most.

……

The door to the infirmary was half open.

Charcoal was burning in the brazier.

Two chairs, two people chatting around the brazier warming the fire.

Lao Huang also set up tongs on the brazier, and put sweet potato slices soaked in salt on it.

All the patrolmen passed by the door of the medical room, and seeing this scene, they all lamented that Lao Huang, a rotten drunkard, was lucky to have become friends with the popular 'Inspector Xiaocheng'.

"The organization may send Comrade He Guan to work in the Qingdong guerrillas."

Lao Huang got up and bent over to turn the sweet potato chips over, this action covered the shock on his face.

Cheng Qianfan's words contained huge information:

He Guan joined our party and is our comrade.

Qingdong established an anti-Japanese guerrilla unit directly commanded by our party.

He Guan is going to work in the guerrillas.

"It's really unexpected." Lao Huang lowered his head, stared at the sweet potato chips, swallowed, and said softly, "More than a year ago, He Guan was a reckless policeman, and now he is our comrade."

"Yeah, it's been almost two years, too many changes have happened, and Shanghai is already an occupied area." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, pointing to the sweet potato chips, "Bake it again, this thing is half-baked, be careful if you have diarrhea. "

"Do you need me to sweep the formation for you in tomorrow's operation?" Lao Huang asked.

"No need." Cheng Qianfan leaned forward slightly, putting his hands up to the fire, "Unless there are special circumstances, I think it is really necessary for the Secret Service's operations, otherwise, you'd better not get involved."

Lao Huang nodded and remained silent.

He just mentioned it, and Cheng Qianfan said no, so he didn't need it. Within the party group, Cheng Qianfan was the team leader, so his words represented the group's organizational decision to a certain extent.

……

"Qi Datou is dead." Lao Huang said suddenly.

Cheng Qianfan was slightly taken aback, Qi Datou was a small leader of the Green Gang.

The world is so chaotic, and the high-risk job of gang leader is unavoidable. However, he knew that Lao Huang would not mention this person for no reason.

"How did he die?" he asked.

"It is said that he fell down the stairs after being drunk, hit his head, and died." Lao Huang picked up a sweet potato chip, and didn't care about burning his mouth. Take a bite now and again.

"You went to the scene?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately.

"Didn't come up to me, just glanced at it." Lao Huang said, "It doesn't look like it was hit on the head, it's more like being hit by a hard object."

He took another bite of dried sweet potato, "It's like this."

Cheng Qianfan looked over and almost couldn't help laughing. Lao Huang bit the dried sweet potato like a pistol, which meant that it was like a wound caused by being hit on the head by the handle of a gun.

"Qi Datou is dead, so many people are staring at Yang Qianli's piece of fat." Cheng Qianfan said.

Yang Qianli is a rice shop owner. After the Japanese occupied Shanghai, the price of rice soared. Not small.

To be involved in the business of rice, flour, grain and oil in Shanghai, there must be someone behind him, and Yang Qianli's backer is Qi Datou.

Qi Datou is dead, if Yang Qianli can't find a new backer as soon as possible, his rice store will not be able to keep.

Then he saw Lao Huang looking at him with a strange expression.

"Lu Jiufan went out in a hurry today and caught someone back." Lao Huang said.

Cheng Qianfan opened his mouth, it was really not his order.

His subordinates are actively making money, what can he do?
……

The arresting hall was in disarray.

When Cheng Qianfan came in, Lu Jiufan was questioning a middle-aged man.

Seeing the inspector come in, everyone quickly stood at attention and saluted.

"What happened?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a glance.

"This guy, pretending to be a blind man to tell fortunes, entered a house, threatened and controlled the hostess, and wanted to steal things, but was blocked in the house by the men who came home." Lu Jiufan said.

Hearing 'blind man fortune-telling', Cheng Qianfan immediately knew what was going on.

He glanced at the 'suspect' with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek, and showed a playful smile, "Stealing things? Or - stealing people?"

Hearing Cheng Qianfan's words, the young man evaded a little.

The other patrols put down the Pai Gow, tea mugs, playing cards, and newspapers in their hands, expressed their interest in this topic in a very 'timely' manner, and surrounded them.

"I don't have it. As the saying goes, there is a way to steal." The young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks poked his neck and said, "I just want to order something."

Who is the policeman? Hearing this, the kid would rather admit to stealing than admitting to stealing himself.

Obviously, this was a hit. This guy really had a tryst with the hostess, and was blocked in the house by the hostess, so he lied that he was going to steal something.

……

"I can't imagine that this sharp-mouthed monkey cheek has such a skill?"

"You can't judge people by their appearance, tsk tsk."

"Maybe this kid has a special thing." Someone said, and even came up and took a handful.

The monkey-cheeked young man blushed and stammered, "I don't, it's not me."

Then he said that it's not a crime to be a big bird, and he couldn't do anything about it because his father gave birth to his mother and raised his fetus.

All the patrolmen were laughing and joking, and the hunting hall was full of joyful atmosphere.

……

"Which one?" Cheng Qianfan asked, frowning.

"Yang Qianli's house on Father Jin Road." Lu Jiu turned and said.

If everyone looked at each other, it would be even more true.

Yang Qianli is the owner of the rice shop. Although he is not a powerful person, he is not something such a bum can provoke.

If Yang Qianli was arrested for stealing, he would look around in embarrassment and anger. It would not be surprising for such a bum to die in the police station.

"Come here." Cheng Qianfan nodded at Lu Jiu.

Lu Jiu turned into the office, and lit a cigarette for Inspector Xiao Cheng courteously, "Inspector, you old man has sharp eyes, and you can see through that kid at a glance."

"Record two statements for that kid." Cheng Qianfan leaned comfortably on the chair, with one foot on the table, "Show it to Boss Yang, whether it's stealing or stealing, let him choose."

"Understood." Lu Jiu smiled and gave a thumbs up, "Inspector, this is you!"

"The world is going down." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "Boss Yang is a showman. To save face, we have to take care of his emotions."

"Inspector, you are truly a bodhisattva. Yang Qianli has accumulated virtues from his ancestors. He met a kind person like you, Inspector."

"Go ahead and tell your brethren to keep your mouth shut."

"Yes!"

Just when Lu Jiufan was about to go out, he heard the inspector say something from behind, "No, I won't be an example."

Lu Jiu's expression changed, his forehead was sweating, and he said respectfully, "Yes, yes, this subordinate knows his mistake and dare not do it again."

"A worthless product." Cheng Qianfan looked at the terrified Lu Jiu, and snorted coldly, "How many times have I said that we are going to make a lot of money, the ball."

As he spoke, he paused, "This time, one point will be deducted from your share as a punishment."

"Yes! This subordinate knows his mistake!"

"Get out!" Cheng Qianfan waved his hand.

……

After a while, Datou Lu came back from Xunjie.

"Where did Lu Jiu find it, the one with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks."

The big-headed Reuben chuckled, "Nothing can be hidden from your discerning eyes, inspector."

Cheng Qianfan threw a cigarette to the big head Lu, "Looking like that, no one will believe you steal someone."

The big-headed Reuben winked, "That kid is ugly, but he has strengths."

Cheng Qianfan choked on laughing, pointed at the big head Lu Xiao and scolded, "What kind of dirty stuff."

Big head Lu grinned.

"Did something happen to Qi Datou?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

"Inspector, how do you know? I'm about to report this." Datou Lu showed a surprised expression.

"Without my support, Lu Jiu wouldn't have dared to touch Yang Qianli." Cheng Qianfan sneered, "It's obvious that Lu Jiu dared to attack Yang Qianli."

The big head Lu sighed in his heart, he knew that what Lu Jiufan did this time would make the inspector unhappy.

That's right, the inspector is greedy for money, but what the inspector likes most is the power in his hands. Lu Jiufan has been staring at Yang Qianli for a long time. It is against the inspector's taboo to do it.

"Lu Jiufan is also impatient, he just wants to make something good to honor you, Inspector," Datou Lu said.

"Bullshit, this kid just sees money and can't hold back." Cheng Qianfan scolded.

Hearing this, the big head Lu breathed a sigh of relief, it was right to scold people, and cursing meant that the matter had been exposed.

"Qi Datou is dead." Datou Lu said.

"How did he die?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

"It is said that he was drunk and fell down the stairs and died." Da Tou Lu said.

Cheng Qianfan didn't see anything unusual from Datou Lu's answer, he nodded, "This Qi Datou, it's bad luck."

"No, this guy is unlucky enough."

"Be careful, don't kill people." Cheng Qianfan thought for a while and said.

"Understood, nothing will happen." Datou Lu said, "That woman is not a good person either. Brothers have checked, and this woman raised a few bad faces behind Yang Qianli's back."

……

After the big head Lu went out, Cheng Qianfan's face darkened.

There are a lot of fish and dragons on the beach, people of all colors, and all sorts of messy things.

For example, the blind man who walks the streets to tell fortunes.

Among them, some blind fortune-tellers are accustomed to pondering people's hearts and flattering words, not only cheating those ignorant housewives out of their money, but even their bodies.

Every year, the police station receives many similar cases of housewives being defrauded of money and sex.

Some dark-hearted policemen started to think about it, and arranged for some "suitable" bastards to pretend to be blind fortune-tellers, seduce empty housewives, and then use this to blackmail the hostess.

The so-called "suitability" refers to being handsome or burly, of course, there are very few people who are "good" as the big head Lukou said.

Lu Jiufan is one of the proficient police officers here.

"A bunch of scum." Cheng Qianfan smiled wryly. In the eyes of outsiders, he might be the scum of scum.

This kind of thing belongs to the daily operation of the police, and he has no way to control it, and he can't control it, let alone control it.

He can only restrain Lu Jiufan secretly, not to attack ordinary women from good families.

"Yang Qianli..." Cheng Qianfan flicked the cigarette ash and snorted.

He suddenly realized that he might have overlooked something.

How could Lu Jiufan know so quickly that Yang Qianli's backstage Qi Datou had an accident, and then he could immediately arrange someone to lure Yang's daughter into the trap.

……

"Little monkey." Cheng Qianfan opened the door and shouted.

"Inspector, are you looking for me?" Hou Pingliang got up quickly.

"Come in and talk." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice.

Close the door.

"Go and find out, what happened to Qi Datou's death?" Cheng Qianfan said.

"Qi Datou?" Hou Pingliang was stunned.

"Go and check." Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly, tapped his fingers on the table lightly, "Keep quiet."

"Understood." Hou Ping nodded brightly.

Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette and fell into deep thought. Hou Pingliang obviously didn't know that Qi Datou was dead. This kid was extremely loyal to him, but he was not smart enough to realize what it meant for Lu Jiu to dare to touch Yang Qianli.

However, this also shows that the news of Qi Datou's death did not spread so fast.

There is a problem here.

……

In the evening, Li Hao returned to the patrol room.

"Where's the inspector?" He deftly smoked his colleagues and asked casually.

"in office."

"Haozi, come here." Cheng Qianfan called out from the office.

"Yes!"

Li Hao entered the door and closed the door behind his back, blocking out the chaotic sounds from outside.

"Brother Fan, I found out."

"Drink some water, and speak slowly." Cheng Qianfan handed Li Hao a glass of water, pulled up the blinds, and a ray of sunset fell in.

"Zou Fengqi is indeed playing dog running. In the last dog race, he bet heavily."

"How much to bet?"

"One thousand French currency."

A thousand French currency?
Cheng Qianfan pondered, this amount of money is an astronomical figure for ordinary people, maybe they will never see so much money in their lifetime, but for Zou Fengqi, it is just for fun.

"Win or lose?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

"I lost." Li Hao said, "Zou Fengqi bought the Lark last time."

Hearing this, Cheng Qianfan's eyes lit up. Combined with the news from Ah Can, the bad gambler said that Wang Kangnian recommended to Zou Fengqi to continue buying Lark for the next game. There are two possibilities:

One is that Ah Can casually made up that Wang Kangnian and Zou Fengqi got mixed up, which is true, but what the two of them talked about, of course, this bad gambler has no way of knowing.

Another possibility is that Ah Can did hear that Wang Kangnian recommended Lak to Zou Fengqi, which is interesting.

Either Wang Kangnian is good at looking at dogs, and it is true that Lark is in good condition and has a great chance of winning.

Either Wang Kangnian saw that the old man Zou Fengqi had a special liking for the dog Lark, and said so according to his liking.

This is the case with some old gambling dogs, who only buy the same dog.

What made Cheng Qianfan happy was that this kind of psychology seemed to indicate that Zou Fengqi was more likely to go to the scene to watch the running dogs.

This kind of old gambling dog, the greatest joy is watching the dog he insists on winning, even for Zou Fengqi, winning money is not the most important thing, what he likes more is the good spirit of winning transport.

"Did Zou Fengqi go to the dog race last time to watch the dog race?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately.

Some people play dog ​​races just for gambling, they only place bets and don’t watch dog races. Of course, this kind of people are a minority. More dog bettors will choose to watch dog races live. What they like is the atmosphere.

"Go." Li Hao nodded, "This man seems to be really fascinated by running dogs. Some people who saw him said that Zou Fengqi yelled very loudly when watching the game, and he looked like an old gambling dog."

"Okay! Very good!" Cheng Qianfan's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Based on the analysis from top to bottom, based on Zou Fengqi's dog-running addiction, he will definitely not be absent in tomorrow's dog-running race.
