It's quiet at night.
Cheng Qianfan was sitting at the window, holding a thread with his left hand, and the other end of the thread was tied to the curtain. He gently pulled the thread, and the curtain opened a small opening, allowing him to observe the activities of Hans Clinic.
He was addicted to cigarettes, but he didn't smoke. He was playing with a cigarette in his right hand.
During the past few days while secretly protecting "Mr. Miao" at "Tianya Photo Studio", Cheng Qianfan, who was addicted to smoking, was in a strict state of quitting smoking.
Because he carefully inspected Tianya Photo Studio and found that the owner of the photo studio did not have a habit of smoking, and there was no smoke in the whole house.
At this moment, Cheng Qianfan caught a glimpse of the lightbulb at Hans Clinic going out, then turning on again...
He began to count silently in his mind, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!
After seven seconds, turn off the light.
Then it lit up again.
A smile broke out on Cheng Qianfan's face, which was a sign that 'Mr. Miao' had woken up and the operation was successful.
At the same time, in the safe house diagonally opposite Hans Clinic, Kang Erniu and another comrade who was responsible for security work also received the signal, and both of them were very excited.
Previously, 'Mr. Miao' had been in a coma and could not move. This was the biggest hidden danger in their security work. Now, 'Mr. Miao' has regained consciousness and the operation was successful. This biggest safety hazard is gone. Even if there is an emergency, they can There is also more room for maneuver.
Kang Erniu didn't know that the signal sent out from the clinic was not just conveyed to them alone, but actually had something else going on.
Only Peng and Ou know that Cheng Qianfan is secretly guarding this photo studio, and no one else knows, including Chai Xue, who just sent the safety signal.
…
About two hours later, Cheng Qianfan checked the time on his watch and it was almost time to evacuate.
'Mr. Miao' has woken up, and he will no longer secretly guard this photo studio.
Under normal circumstances, the security comrades led by Kang Erniu can completely handle it.
And if there was indeed an arrest operation in the central patrol room, he, the third patrol commander, must have known about it. He only needed to delay for a moment or two and send a warning in time, which would be enough to ensure the safety of 'Mr. Miao'.
The main reason why he had to protect him secretly before was that 'Mr. Miao' did not wake up and could not move or transfer.
In addition, there is a small situation, that is, someone paid money to bail out Chang Shen, the owner of Tianya Photo Studio.
Chang Shu's relative, a man who claimed to be his cousin, spent 80 yuan to apply for "bail" for Chang Shu.
In addition to being able to make a lot of money from the eighty yuan, Chang Shu's cousin knew the rules very well and asked someone to send three small yellow croakers to Inspector Xiao Cheng in private.
Cheng Qianfan, who has always been paid to do things and has a good reputation, was very happy and promised to release him the next day and after he went to work at dawn today.
…
Cheng Qianfan held a flashlight in his hand and carefully checked the photo studio again.
There is still nothing suspicious.
Cheng Qianfan smiled, this is interesting.
The reason why he suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the photo studio was because someone came to redeem Chang Shen.
Cheng Qianfan chose to 'attack' Tianya Photo Studio, so he naturally did a thorough investigation.
The owner of the photo studio, Changshu, runs the shop by himself. He is an honest man and has no relatives or friends.
Even if you are caught by a patrol, you don't have to worry about someone coming to your door in the short term.
However, the current situation is that Chang Shen was only detained for three days before a so-called cousin came to the police station to fish for him.
Although the cousin said that he had just returned to Shanghai, he learned that his cousin had "committed something" and he quickly came to patrol the people who had redeemed their houses.
This is too much of a coincidence.
Here at the Secret Service, we never believe in coincidences.
And he was able to take out eighty yuan in one go, and he was able to bribe Inspector Xiao Cheng with three more small yellow croakers in private.
This was not consistent with Chang Shu's family situation during his investigation.
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan secretly became suspicious of this photo studio.
In order to avoid "accidentally injuring friendly troops", he did not notify the patrol room to conduct an inspection, but went to check it out himself.
This inspection was more careful than before the first 'check-in'.
Not to mention guns and ammunition, radio stations, documents, magazines and other things that should not be there, even during patrol searches, none of the ambiguous violations that could be punished or not were found.
It stands to reason that this is enough to show that there is no problem in the photo studio.
However, in Cheng Qianfan's eyes, this just showed that there was something wrong with the photo studio.
The experience and tips involved in patrolling and extorting merchants and taking advantage of cards have been tested over time, and ordinary store owners simply cannot avoid them.
This small photo studio has perfectly avoided the problems that patrols can find trouble with, which is something wrong in itself.
This photo studio came into the sight of Inspector Xiao Cheng.
…
Before preparing to evacuate, Cheng Qianfan closed the window and let in the wind.
Cheng Qianfan's heart moved.
Soon, he moved quickly.
After all his troubles, the photo studio felt like it had been robbed.
The house was turned into a mess, and valuables were swept away.
Finally, he artificially lowered his unlocking skills and opened the door locks of each room in a more crude way.
After completing all this, Cheng Qianfan wrapped the 'stolen items' in a sheet, quietly left the photo studio, and quickly disappeared into the pre-dawn night.
…
"Brother Lu, good morning." Li Hao held the pancake wrapped in brown paper in his hand and ate it as he walked into the arresting hall.
Da Toulu reached over, pinched a piece of fried fish, and put it into his mouth.
He had eaten breakfast and was not hungry.
It was just a way to express his closeness to Li Hao, the inspector's confidant.
"The inspector hasn't gotten up yet?" Li Hao asked in a low voice.
"No." Da Toulu said.
After the fighting between the National Army and the Japanese, the entire French Concession was on full alert. Patrol Chief Cheng Qianfan even set an example and came to the patrol house before dawn for several days in a row.
Inspector Xiao Cheng's theory is that before dawn is the time when things are most likely to happen, so he doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't come to the patrol room in person to keep an eye on things.
Of course, Cheng Qianfan's so-called personal watching meant that he came to his office and continued to sleep.
However, he was a patrol commander, so it was already remarkable to have such a gesture. No one would blame him, and would only give a thumbs up to the patrol commander Xiao Cheng.
"I'll go take a look." Li Hao raised the aluminum lunch box in his hand and said with a smile.
He brought breakfast to Cheng Qianfan.
…
"Brother Fan, are you up?" Li Hao gently knocked on the door of the inspector's office.
no respond.
He knocked harder.
"You idiot! Are you kidding a little red guy?" There was a curse coming from inside.
"Inspector, I am Li Hao."
About half a minute later, the sound of walking was heard inside. Cheng Qianfan, wearing a white shirt and police uniform, looked exhausted, yawned and opened the door.
"You can't let me have a comfortable sleep in my cage." Cheng Qianfan cursed.
"It's getting late." Li Hao closed the door and placed the aluminum lunch box on the table. "The fried and glutinous rice cakes are hot."
"It's dry and heart-burning." Cheng Qianfan took one look at it and complained, "Go across the street and make me a bowl of wontons later."
"Okay." Li Hao said, as diligent as a bee, going in and out to help Cheng Qianfan get toothbrushing water and face wash.
Cheng Qianfan brushed his teeth and deliberately made noise while washing his face.
"There are some things in Third Grandma's Alley. You can get them out in a day or two and find a skilled hand to deal with them before you get rid of them." Cheng Qianfan said in a low voice.
"yes."
"Keep an eye out to see if anyone inquires about these things."
"clear."
"There's something wrong with Tianya Photo Studio. Keep an eye on it."
"Do you need me to arrange someone in the group?"
"Zhitou and the others," Cheng Qianfan said.
Li Hao nodded and understood.
"What progress is there with Lu Qixiang?" Cheng Qianfan picked up the towel, twisted it hard, and asked in a low voice.
Lu Qixiang is Lu Xiaoming's father, and Lu Xiaoming is Xiaobao's classmate, the elementary school student who used "eight dogs" to curse others.
"Qiao Chuntao arranged for Zhou Xiliang to lead people to keep an eye on him. There is nothing unusual for the time being."
"Zhou Xiliang doesn't have to go to class?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
Zhou Xiliang is the deputy leader of the Intelligence Group, and his current legal identity is a Chinese teacher at a school in Yangjingbang.
"There is a war. Although classes at Zhou Xiliang's school have not been suspended, people are panicked. Some teachers and students have already asked for leave," Li Hao said.
Cheng Qianfan nodded, picked up the comb, took out a small mirror from the drawer, and combed his hair in front of the mirror.
After a while, he sat down, took two bites of breakfast, and shouted outside, "Deputy Inspector Lu, come here."
