He Guan woke up.
He Guan fell into coma again.
Although He Guan only woke up for a moment, Huang Xiaolan almost cried with joy.
The doctor said that as long as he could wake up once, it would mean He Guan had a chance to survive.
A nurse came to relieve the shift.
Huang Xiaolan left in a hurry, thinking about boiling some rice soup for He Guan.
"Drink up the rice soup." Cheng Qianfan tapped Xiaobao's head with chopsticks.
Xiaobao looked at the remaining half bowl of rice soup and frowned.
She was not wasting food, but she was full. The little girl ate two pieces of glutinous rice cake and a half-meat steamed bun.
Xiaobao finally picked up the bowl, finished the drink, wiped his mouth, and burped again.
Cheng Qianfan laughed.
Xiaobao also laughed sheepishly.
"Okay, brother has gone to work. You should study hard in school and listen to your sister-in-law." Cheng Qianfan put on his armed belt and put on the holster. "The most important thing is, don't fight."
"I don't fight." Xiaobao said immediately, and then added after thinking, "I only fight Xiao Ming."
Cheng Qianfan smiled and shook his head and ignored it. For children, fighting is normal.
Just let nature take its course.
If he tells Xiaobao too many things that need attention, it will alarm Xiaoming's parents.
"Where are the textbooks and handouts?" Bai Ruolan, who was packing things in the kitchen, saw Cheng Qianfan going out and quickly stuck her head out and asked.
"In my study." Cheng Qianfan said, "I have marked the key points. If you don't understand anything, ask me when you come back from get off work."
"I got it." Bai Ruolan raised her green-white arms and tried to pull up her bangs. Her hands were stained with water and felt a little awkward. Cheng Qianfan took a comb over.
Gently combing the scattered bangs into order, Cheng Qianfan bit the handle of the comb in his mouth, tied up Bai Ruolan's hair and put on a bow.
"It's done, I'm going to work." Cheng Qianfan said.
Bai Ruolan helped Cheng Qianfan tidy up the corners of his uniform. She glanced out of the corner of her beautiful eyes and saw Xiaobao concentrating on playing with a bamboo dragonfly. She stood on tiptoes and kissed Cheng Qianfan's forehead gently, "Be careful on the road."
…
Cheng Qianfan sighed inwardly.
Although he did not want to involve Bai Ruolan in his dangerous work, as his wife, Bai Ruolan would inevitably be involved in his work.
Ruolan is very smart.
She always used her intelligence and alertness to help him silently and without leaving a trace.
After clearing the dishes, Bai Ruolan wiped her hands with a towel, hung up her apron, and went to the study upstairs.
After finding the textbook and handouts, she flipped through them casually, her beautiful Qiong nose wrinkled cutely, and then she carefully took out a book and a handout and put them into her bag.
Bai Ruolan has never formally attended school. She has studied with the nuns at the nursing home since she was a child. She is a smart woman with good learning ability. However, the university courses are still a bit too profound for her.
Bai Ruolan secretly calculated that she must seize the time to study and ensure her study progress.
In the eyes of outsiders, Bai Ruolan's request to attend Tongji University was a personal 'active' request.
Although she can only study by herself due to the war, it is precisely because of this that Mrs. Cheng, who is eager to learn knowledge and improve herself, cannot relax herself and must achieve learning results.
Bai Ruolan had no training, and even her husband didn't take the initiative to reveal anything to him.
She just relied on her intuition to do it. She knew that it was important to help Cheng Qianfan improve his words and deeds as much as possible.
Cheng Qianfan didn't know that Bai Ruolan was worrying about how to teach herself and improve herself, and he was frowning now.
"What's going on?" Cheng Qianfan frowned, "You have planned and prepared for so long, and you attacked suddenly with superior force, and you can actually let the other party escape partially?"
Li Hao reported a piece of news to him.
The little Taoist priest who had been secretly monitoring Sichuan Hongbang received intelligence in the early morning that the national army launched an encirclement and suppression of the Jiangkou Rangers.
Although it was a sudden attack and the troops were superior, the combat power and tenacious fighting will of the Eguchi Rangers exceeded everyone's expectations.
Facing the superior strength of the national army, the Guangdong Rangers quickly stabilized their position after the initial panic.
In the end, although this small elite team suffered heavy losses, they still managed to escape partially.
"The little Taoist priest said that the Japanese soldiers' marksmanship was very accurate, which was the key to their ability to break through." Li Hao said.
Cheng Qianfan's expression was solemn, and he also recognized Zhuo Yun's judgment.
The Japanese army's marksmanship is very accurate. On the battlefield, there is even a saying of "three shots at the Japanese army". This is a rule summarized by the national army:
This means that the Japanese soldiers' marksmanship is very accurate. If a Chinese soldier fires three shots at the same position without knowing how to change positions, the Chinese soldier will basically die.
This is the marksmanship of ordinary Japanese soldiers, and the Eguchi Rangers are elites drawn from the Japanese frontline soldiers. It can be imagined that their marksmanship is accurate and their combat effectiveness is strong.
"Where's Eguchi Hideya?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Jiangkou did not appear. In fact, Jiangkou has not appeared in recent days. According to the little Taoist's secret observation, the real military leader of this special force is not Jiangkou." Li Hao said.
Cheng Qianfan nodded. He had thought of this a long time ago. Eguchi Hideya was more like responsible for general affairs for this special force, obtaining support from traitors for this elite force, finding hiding places, providing material reserve support, and at the same time trying his best to Help them hide.
When all this was done, Eguchi Hide decisively broke away from the Rangers to avoid being exposed or trapped in the fierce firefight that followed.
"I arranged to investigate Jiangkou's family. How is the investigation going?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Eguchi is very alert. I don't know why, but he seems to pay special attention to the protection of his family." Li Hao said, "So far, we have only heard from side information that when Eguchi returned to Shanghai from Japan, he came back with his wife. , regarding the further situation of this woman, no further progress has been made for the time being."
Cheng Qianfan fell into deep thought. The current situation was turbulent and the war was raging. Eguchi Hide was also worried about the safety of his family and it was not surprising to be cautious.
However, he arranged for people to investigate the situation of Eguchi Hideya and his family before the Songhu War broke out. At that time, Eguchi Hideya was the third-class military attaché of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai, and Hongkou was even more Japanese. In a gathering place for overseas Chinese, he actually doesn't need to worry too much about his wife's safety.
Eguchi Hideya's cautious behavior aroused Cheng Qianfan's interest.
Keiko!
Whether this woman is Keiko or not is crucial for Cheng Qianfan to solve some mysteries.
"Arrange a reliable brother..." Cheng Qianfan originally planned to have a reliable subordinate take a photo of Keiko and secretly identify it with someone who had seen Eguchi's wife. However, this method was risky.
Li Hao looked at Brother Fan through the rearview mirror and saw that he closed his mouth and did not continue speaking.
Knowing that Brother Fan was thinking about this matter, he did not speak to disturb Brother Fan's thoughts.
"Find a way to inform Qian Zhongnan's family that Ms. Ruth, who disappeared at that time, returned to Shanghai. Someone saw her getting close to the Japanese and vowed to take back the family property." Cheng Qianfan thought quickly and thought of a wonderful idea. idea, he said with a smile.
Qian Zhongnan was Keiko's dead husband when she was working as "Ms. Ruth".
Later, when Cheng Qianfan and Song Fuguo formulated a "love plan" to get rid of Yingzuo Eiichi, they used Qian Zhongnan's relatives to "report" Huizi for murdering her husband, and were able to capture Huizi into the patrol room detention center and control the situation. In his hands, he used this to control Hideya Eguchi.
Later, Yingzuo died and Keiko disappeared. After careful management, Qian Zhongnan's relatives were able to successfully own Qian Zhongnan's family property.
Now, after learning that 'Ruth' is back, those who are most nervous and most eager to find out the situation are Qian Zhongnan's relatives.
"I understand." Li Hao nodded, and couldn't help but cheer for Brother Fan. What kind of brain does Brother Fan have? There are so many clever ideas.
"If you go through a few more turns, you won't be traced to the special situation team." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Leave it to me." Li Hao said, he is the best at this kind of thing.
…
Japanese military planes bombed the car of British Ambassador to China Hugo Sen, causing Hugo Sen to be seriously injured. As expected, this incident became a hotly reported matter in the newspapers.
The headline of "Zi Lin Xi Bao" was that the British Empire lodged a serious protest against Japan.
In the patrol room, the patrol officers were also discussing this matter happily.
This said that the British were very angry and the consequences were serious.
That one said that the British were going to fall out with the Japanese.
There are also people who say with certainty that British soldiers will come to Shanghai to fight the Japanese together with the national army.
Of course, some people think that the British may not dare to fall out with the Japanese, otherwise the matter will go to nothing.
Two views were at odds.
"This is the British Empire. How can the British be afraid of the Japanese?" a patrolman said.
"The British are no longer good. The leader of the foreigners is France now." A patrolman retorted, which caused an uproar. Although everyone was working for the French, they also knew that the leader of the foreigners was not France, but England. .
Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, the patrolman immediately added, "It was Second Lieutenant Pitt who said this."
Cheng Qianfan had a cigarette in his mouth and a smile on his face. He opened the blinds with his right hand and glanced at the guys in the arresting hall.
At this time, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice.
Datou Lu came in and reported to Cheng Qianfan about today's patrol arrangements.
Cheng Qianfan took the duty form, glanced at it, and signed.
Throwing the duty list to Da Toulu, Inspector Xiao Cheng sat on the chair, flicked the ashes from his cigarette, frowned and said, "I don't know what happened today, I feel so weak, as if someone owes me money and won't pay back."
"Inspector, you are joking. Who in Shanghai dares to owe you money and not pay it back." Datou Lu complimented with a smile.
"I've passed it, I've passed it." Cheng Qianfan smiled and pointed at Da Toulu, "I'm just a little bit thin in the French Concession."
However, smiling, smiling, Cheng Qianfan's smile faded and he patted the table:
Someone really 'owed him money'!
"There's no movement from Chi Guofu?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a cold face.
Datou Lu saw the inspector's face darken and quickly stopped his smile. When he heard Cheng Qianfan ask this question, he immediately understood why the inspector was angry.
"No." Datou Lu shook his head, "I didn't hear that Chi Guofu sent someone to inquire about anything."
"Has the news that Akagi-kun is in our hands been released?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"After he was released, it was said that Akagi-kun committed a crime and was detained by the patrol room." Datoulu said quickly, "Logically, this news should have reached Akagofu's ears."
"That doesn't make sense." Cheng Qianfan frowned and shook his head. Chi Guofu was the only one in the family, Chimu-kun, and it was impossible for the old guy to ignore him.
"Maybe..." Datou Lu hesitated.
"Say." Cheng Qianfan cursed.
"I heard people say that Akagi-kun's stuff is not very good. Will that Japanese woman have Akagi-kun with another man..." Datulu winked and whispered.
"Hey!" Cheng Qianfan went out secretly to deliver the report last night. He didn't get a good rest. He was a little sleepy at first. When he heard this, he lost all sleepiness. "Hearsay, I can't be accurate."
Datou Lushan smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes."
"However, we must also stay close to the people and listen to their opinions." Inspector Xiao Cheng looked serious, then lit a cigarette, brought the ashtray close to him, crossed his legs and said, "Many times, these seem to be rumors. Things often contain clues."
"Congratulations, Inspector." Datou Lu gave a thumbs up.
"Come quickly." Inspector Xiao Cheng said seriously.
…
The arresting hall of the third patrol of the central district patrol room was as lively as ever.
At noon, Inspector Cheng took a whip and gave Sanguang Mazi a good beating for being drunk and causing trouble.
Soon, a news spread among the people:
Inspector Xiao Cheng, who is recovering from alcoholism, does not want to see drunkards causing trouble.
The incident of Xu Gesen being bombed by Japanese military planes continues to ferment.
The Americans have stated that the U.S. government will not give up its interests in the Far East.
At the same time, US President Roosevelt issued a call for armistice and peace talks between China and Japan.
Subsequently, a meeting of the British Empire's Prime Minister, Foreign Minister, and Privy Councilors decided to safeguard interests in China and welcomed the US President's call for an armistice.
Some people were cheering because they saw the hope that the League of Nations, led by Britain and the United States, would intervene in the Sino-Japanese war and mediate.
There was such optimism even within the National Government.
Chairman Chang Kaishen convened a meeting with government officials to analyze the impact of British and American attitudes on the Sino-Japanese war.
The foreign affairs department regarded this as good news and believed that the League of Nations would very likely intervene and mediate. Although the Japanese were arrogant, they still had to listen to the words of the League of Nations.
However, the military generally believes that the British do not dare to do anything to the Japanese and cannot expect too much from Britain, the United States and the League of Nations.
The Chairman hesitated.
When Chen Wendan saw this, he was a little angry and said:
Even if we place our hopes on the powers to stop, we need to take the initiative on the battlefield. Otherwise, why would the powers lean towards us?
After hearing this, Chang Kaishen finally agreed and nodded.
…
"The British are fierce in appearance but soft in heart." Hyōtaro Imamura sneered and said.
Cheng Qianfan followed Sanbonjiro's instructions and came to visit Hyōtaro Imamura in an honest manner.
Hyōtaro Imamura seemed to be in a good mood. Imamura, who liked to teach others, gave Cheng Qianfan a lesson and explained and analyzed the current situation.
"Chang Kaishen was not in Xu Gesen's car. The bombing was by mistake." Hyotarō Imamura said, "However, it also gave us an opportunity to test the British's strength, attitude and reaction."
"From the current point of view, although the British attach great importance to their interests in China, they do not dare to fight in the Far East. They are afraid of the powerful Japanese Empire." Imamura Hyoutaro said, "Whether they are British or Americans, they are Those who won’t shed blood for China’s war will at most just wave the flag and shout.”
Cheng Qianfan was convinced that it had been several days since Xu Gesen was bombed by Japanese military planes, and the British protest was only verbal without any actual action.
"The arrogant British are actually very afraid of war." Cheng Qianfan said.
Hyōtaro Imamura glanced at him approvingly. This sentence summed it up very well. It seems that he often gives lectures to Miyazaki-kun, and Miyazaki-kun has made considerable progress.
At this moment, a secretary came in and whispered something into Imamura Hyoutarou's ear.
Hyōtaro Imamura waved his hand and the secretary stepped back.
"Miyazaki-kun, did you capture Aka Kunifu's son?" Hyōtaro Imamura asked.
