"Stupid Stinny." At one end of the corridor, a middle-aged Western man in a suit and tie, wearing a top hat and holding a civilized stick in his hand had a gloomy expression.
This is Smith, the deputy general manager of Licha Hotel.
"David, if you were Stinney, what do you think you should do?" Smith asked a young man with blue eyes and black hair next to him.
"First of all, I won't question this young police officer as soon as he comes up." David said while thinking, "The gun has been fired. The most important thing at this time is to close the door, ask about the situation, and then use the same tone before speaking out publicly. Comfort the residents.”
"Smart boy, go ahead and leave this matter to you."
"As you wish, this matter will be handled perfectly." David nodded arrogantly.
David Johnson waved, and a waiter came over immediately.
"Go and ask Inspector Cheng to come over." David Johnson whispered.
Cheng Qianfan ordered his men to continue searching the room for clues.
He lit a cigarette himself and watched with interest as Stinney was besieged by hotel guests.
A waiter came quietly and found him.
Cheng Qianfan looked up and saw a young foreigner nodding haughtily at him.
"who is he?"
"It's Mr. David Johnson, the grandson of the hotel general manager Mr. Nelson," the waiter said.
"Five hundred pounds, two hundred pounds." Cheng Qianfan flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said softly.
The waiter glanced at the young and handsome Inspector Cheng, nodded, and walked back quietly.
Young Mr. Johnson's face turned green, this bastard, this was an opportunity to blackmail.
No wonder Jason was angry. What is the concept of five hundred pounds?
Five hundred pounds is equivalent to approximately two thousand U.S. dollars. The official exchange rate for one U.S. dollar is 3.33 French currency, which is approximately 6,660 French currency.
The actual exchange rate is even higher than the official exchange rate, and most importantly, the pound maintains its value and is currently the most trustworthy currency in the world.
"Sir, I suggest you choose five hundred pounds," the waiter whispered.
Inspector Xiao Cheng meant five hundred pounds or two hundred pounds. There were two solutions to choose from.
It can be said that the price is clearly marked and the price is clear, which is very consistent with the name and style of Inspector Xiao Cheng.
Jason glanced at the waiter suspiciously and warily.
"Inspector Cheng has a very good reputation. He asked for five hundred pounds, which means it is worth five hundred pounds." The waiter said, "Two hundred pounds and five hundred pounds are bound to be worth the same price."
When Jason heard this, he looked over and saw the young man playing with a Browning pistol in one hand and spinning a burning cigarette in the other hand.
Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly, very politely, but his face was calm and disrespectful.
…
"Five hundred, promise him!"
Just when Jason was still hesitating, Smith's voice came from behind.
Jason's expression changed, and he knew that his hesitation cost him points.
The waiter raised five fingers on his right hand, nodded, and signaled to Cheng Qianfan.
Cheng Qianfan smiled, threw the cigarette on the ground, stepped on it with his leather shoes, and crushed it out.
He took off the top hat, nodded slightly in greeting, showed a gentle smile, then put on the top hat again, stuffed the Browning gun into the holster, clapped his hands, "Everyone, everyone, listen to what I have to say."
The tenants who were 'besieging' the British manager Stinney looked over.
However, after just one glance, he ignored it and continued to make noise.
Cheng Qianfan was not angry either. He stretched out his hand, and Da Toulu immediately handed over a German-made M4 grenade.
The scene that was as noisy as dozens of ducks quarreling suddenly became extremely quiet.
"Do you know what this is?" Cheng Qianfan asked coldly.
"Grenade!" someone shouted.
"Yes, grenades." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "Three grenades and those explosives are enough to blow up this floor."
No one dared to speak, either because they were frightened by his words or by Cheng Qianfan: he was actually playing with a grenade in his hand.
"We received a tip from Mr. David Jensen of the Rich Hotel and suspected that there were criminal thugs staying in the hotel."
"In order to avoid causing panic and leaking information, this was a secret operation."
"It's a pity that we escaped Jiang Mulezi and other thugs, but thankfully, we worked together with the hotel to prevent a violent attack that could have caused huge casualties." Cheng Qianfan said with a serious expression, "In my case It seems that we got rid of the suspect, which is sad, but the most important thing is that no one was injured in this incident! This is the most gratifying."
Wow!
Someone applauded, and then there was a burst of warm applause.
"We must ensure the safety of the lives and property of our guests. This is what Mr. David Johnson and the Richa Hotel repeatedly warned before this operation. I propose to applaud the Richa Hotel for its respect and reverence for life. "After Cheng Qianfan finished speaking, he applauded first.
There was a burst of warm applause, and some residents whistled and cheered.
…
At this time, Cheng Qianfan saw Sheng Shuyu appearing among the onlookers.
Sheng Shuyu nodded towards him.
Cheng Qianfan did not respond and his expression remained unchanged. He handed the grenade back to Da Toulu, who put the grenade into his suitcase.
"Okay, everyone, we have completed the search and are about to evacuate." Cheng Qianfan clasped his fists at everyone. The residents glanced at the suitcase containing explosives and grenades and hurriedly avoided it.
After Cheng Qianfan and others left, someone suddenly reacted.
"That's not right. This Cheng Qianfan is a patrol officer in the French Concession. This is a public concession."
"Yes, Inspector Fei, why was it the policeman from the French Concession who organized this operation?"
Everyone looked at the Huangpu Road Inspector Li Li at the scene and asked.
I want to fucking know why.
Li Li secretly complained in his heart.
…
"Let me explain this problem." Mr. Smith, the deputy general manager of the Richa Hotel, came over. "After Jason reported to me that he found a group of people suspected of being Jiang Mule, I asked him to contact the police station in the French Concession."
Smith paused, "This move does not show distrust of Inspector Lili and the police station in the public concession. It is just that the French Concession has been working hard to capture Jiang Mule and his party, and they know this murderer better.
And because most of the people on the patrol are familiar faces on Huangpu Road, the criminals recognize them. Once discovered by the other party in advance, they may take desperate risks and hurt everyone.
Therefore, for confidentiality and safety reasons, we chose to invite the French Concession Patrol Room to carry out this operation. "
Everyone suddenly understood and praised Li Cha Hotel for his thoughtfulness.
Only Li Li had a grimace on his face, what a fart!
These words are meant to deceive laymen.
As for the British and American public concession patrol houses, it is absolutely impossible for the French concession patrol house to come here to arrest people. It involves law enforcement rights and there is no reason to be lenient.
Smith's words, in addition to appeasing the residents and justifying the lie, also expressed another meaning: dissatisfaction with the security of the British and American Concessions, or more precisely, dissatisfaction with the security of Huangpu Road where the Richa Hotel belongs, and dissatisfaction with his effort. satisfy:
Jiang Mule has moved into the store, bringing grenades and explosives with him, but you don’t know anything about it! Simply inexcusable!
Li Lili felt panic and hatred in his heart, and he hated Cheng Qianfan even more.
"Yes, what Mr. Smith said is correct." Li Li cleared his throat, wiped the sweat from his forehead, forced a smile, and tried his best to pretend to be calm, "We are participating in this operation as a preparatory force. Fang, his colleagues in the French Concession, and the Licha Hotel made the decision after discussions among the three parties. Everything is to avoid a fierce exchange of fire, and everyone's safety is the first consideration."
…
Outside the Licha Hotel, Cheng Qianfan got into the car.
Hao Zai also got in the passenger seat.
"Cheng Tou, are you leaving now?" Hao Zai asked.
"Wait." Cheng Qianfan threw his body on the backrest, "Wait for someone."
About ten minutes later, Lili, sweating profusely, brought two of his men over.
…
Li Lili hurriedly left the hotel, anxious, for fear that Cheng Qianfan had already left.
At this time, I saw the car parked across the road and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then it got even more heated.
This bastard Cheng Qianfan is waiting for him!
This bastard must have figured it all out.
Li Li was very angry and aggrieved.
He was being plotted by this bastard Cheng Qianfan.
A smile appeared on Cheng Qianfan's lips.
He opened the door and Shi Shiran got out of the car.
I saw Li Li was smiling, laughing, and stretched out his right hand.
Cheng Qianfan also smiled and extended his hand.
The two shook hands, both smiling and very enthusiastic, like friends they hadn't seen for many years.
"Old Fei, I have taken the liberty to come to Guibao, excuse me for disturbing you." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
"No way, no way." Li Li said with a smile on his face, "The two of us will work together. It's rare for Brother Cheng to come to Huangpu Road, and I'm afraid he won't be well received."
After the warm greetings.
Li Li quietly gestured with five fingers.
Cheng Qianfan shook his head gently.
Li Li's face changed.
He glanced at Cheng Qianfan with a sly smile and made an eight.
Cheng Qianfan still shook his head.
Li Li's expression was gloomy, he gritted his teeth and smiled angrily, "Brother Cheng, I would like to advise you..."
"Old Fei." Cheng Qianfan smiled, interrupting Li Fei's words. He raised his right hand, pressed down on Li Fei's raised thumb and index finger, and shook Fei Fei's hand.
He then raised two fingers and said, "This time it was my brother who offended me first. The incident happened suddenly. I hope Brother Fei will forgive me."
Li Li glanced at Cheng Qianfan in shock. Seeing the apologetic look on his face, he nodded, "I'm interested. I accept your love."
Cheng Qianfan clasped his hands and said, "I'm sorry."
He stooped into the car and closed the door.
In the car behind, someone immediately got out of the car, placed a package on the ground, and then got in the car.
Cheng Qianfan rolled down the window and closed the curtain.
"Let's go."
…
Watching the car Cheng Qianfan was riding in slowly driving away under the escort of another car, Li Lili had a gloomy expression on his face.
The two made gestures just now and finally reached a consensus:
Li Li used two large yellow croakers to buy an identity to act together.
One of his men opened the bag and found a German-made M4 grenade, a dagger, and a sketch of the Licha Hotel.
This is evidence that Jiang Mulezi and other criminals intended to commit murder, and it is also evidence of the merits of his laborious unit.
With these, Li Li can be said to have participated in this operation. This not only saved Li Li's face, but also saved the face of the British and American Public Settlement Patrol House.
However, I couldn't understand how Cheng Qianfan dared to lead people across the border to the public concession to do something about it?
This is very taboo!
What made Li Li most unhappy was that he had obviously been 'calculated' by Cheng Qianfan and had to take out two large yellow croakers to buy a fig leaf.
But he still owed Cheng Qianfan a favor.
Yes.
Two large yellow croakers are not worth mentioning at all.
According to the normal 'price', I would have to take out seven or eight large yellow croakers to settle it.
It depends on whether Cheng Qianfan is willing to nod.
Of course, he could have ordered the arrest of Cheng Qianfan and others, but in this case, it would be a complete betrayal.
The most important thing is that Li Li knew Cheng Qianfan and had a fairly good understanding of this famous little Inspector Cheng:
This person has always acted cautiously and would not take people across the border to handle cases without authorization.
There must be something behind this that he doesn't understand.
Jiang Mulezi led people to sneak into the Licha Hotel, and Li Li knew nothing about it, which was a huge dereliction of duty. If Cheng Qianfan was taken down at this time, although there was no problem in terms of procedures, he might have missed the final compensation. Chance.
The most important thing now is not how Cheng Qianfan led people to handle the case across the border, but how he solved the situation!
Li Li knew that only he was involved in this operation, and this was the only way to break the situation.
Two large yellow croakers were given to him by Cheng Qianfan.
Let him gain face in front of his men.
However, this face was obtained by owing a favor of some magnitude.
I bother!
Li Lili spat fiercely on the ground, ah ah ah, this kid is so sinister!
Haozi drove the car and asked, "Chengtou, why don't you just don't want the money? It would be a greater favor?"
Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "Not to that extent."
Hao Zai thought for a moment and understood. He was even more impressed by the team leader's skills.
…
At this moment, in a movie theater.
"Life and Death" is playing on the curtain.
In the dark environment, Comrade Xiangwu, who was in the last row and left the Licha Hotel in the chaos, was talking in a low voice with Peng Yuou.
Comrade 'Xiangwu' gave several instructions and requirements for the development of underground parties in Shanghai:
The Shanghai underground party organization can develop slowly, but remember not to rush it.
It is necessary to understand the political and historical situation, class consciousness and political quality of party members.
Special attention must be paid to concealment conditions for our party cadres, especially latent agents.
Finally, Comrade "Xiangwu" made important instructions - only comrades and patriotic young people suitable for underground work in Shanghai can stay, and the rest can be sent to the northwest or to the anti-Japanese base areas in southern Jiangsu that will be established to protect revolutionary comrades, cadre.
Peng Yuou listened attentively and nodded frequently. Comrade Xiangwu's instructions were very timely and important. This was the first time that the Jiangsu Provincial Committee and the Shanghai Municipal Committee had lost contact with the central government and met with the leader of Zhongyang in person for the first time. Listen to central instructions in person.
More than 20 minutes later, Peng and Ou looked at the movie screen. He had watched the movie in advance and knew that it would be over in another 20 minutes.
The two hands held each other tightly.
"Take care of yourself!"
"Take care of yourself!"
Without any extra words, the two said goodbye reluctantly.
Peng Yuou and an underground party comrade left the theater early and left the theater together with people who had finished watching the movie in another theater. They did not attract the attention of the spies watching at the entrance of the theater.
…

In the office of Chief Inspector Qin Detai.
