Cardinal Zhao smoked silently.
Zhang Ping said nothing and just watched the man smoking.
He looked toward the window, out the window.
The rain is falling.
When Cardinal Zhao took a ship from Baodao to visit Shanghai for the first time, it happened to be Huang Meitian, and he fell in love with Huang Meitian in Shanghai and everything here.
Just because this is not my Chinese treasure island occupied by Japanese invaders.
This is the hot land of China.
Although Shanghai was still facing the white terror of the government at that time, this land was not occupied by the invaders. Even if they were sacrificed, they fell there, and the blood flowed out, nourishing the land of the motherland.
How he longed for the treasure island to return to the embrace of the motherland as soon as possible.
His sister, brother-in-law, and countless people with lofty ideals and red warriors sacrificed their lives in the hot land of Treasure Island just to help this land - go home!
A year ago, Shanghai fell, and Cardinal Zhao felt that he was sadder than anyone else.
He had experienced the life of a subjugated slave on the treasure island of his motherland, and he understood better what an occupied area meant.
…
Thoughts come back.
He was sad and heartbroken inside.
He didn't know Bai Feiyu's family background before, and he didn't know that this young man who resolutely joined the anti-Japanese movement, a family of six brothers, had already sacrificed five people!
"Comrade Zhang Ping, tell me your plan." Shuli Zhao flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said, "Don't be impatient. Speak slowly. I want to understand the whole process, especially the details."
Zhang Ping's eyes shone with joy and excitement, "Do you agree to my plan?"
"Well, there's no agreement." Zhao Li glanced at Zhang Ping and said, "Let's talk about it."
Zhang Ping explained her plans and arrangements in detail.
"A bad plan must be revised." Shuli Zhao frowned and came to a conclusion.
…
Zhang Ping was not angry because Cardinal Zhao criticized her plan as a bad plan, but was very happy.
"Tell me, what's wrong?" she asked with expectation.
"Many places." Shuli Zhao shook his head, "I will only say one thing. If Miss Fang really carries that suitcase to see Cheng Qianfan, do you know what Cheng Qianfan will do?"
"This Xiao Cheng will definitely let Bai Feiyu go." Zhang Ping thought, "I asked about the market price and found that the money is in line with Cheng Qianfan's requirements, or even slightly higher than his psychological price."
She took a puff of her cigarette and continued, "Although this Mr. Cheng is greedy for money, he has a good reputation for this kind of thing. He always does things with money."
"You are right." Shu Li Zhao nodded, "Cheng Qianfan will indeed help facilitate Bai Feiyu's release. The most important thing in this kind of thing is credibility. He will not destroy his golden name, but -"
"But what?"
"One month, no, two months at the latest. When you think everything is going well and there are no sequelae, Cheng Qianfan may arrange for someone to arrest you secretly." Councilor Zhao said with a serious expression.
"You mean, he will suspect something through this matter, and then secretly investigate and find out about me. However, in order not to damage his own brand and cover up others' eyes, Cheng Qianfan will wait for the situation to calm down before attacking me?" Zhang Ping immediately understood what Shuli Zhao meant.
"That's right." Shu Li Zhao nodded, "Maybe there is another possibility. He has found you, but he will not take action against you. Instead, he will ignore you for the time being and wait until he thinks it is necessary. Then he will take action, or maybe Sell you directly to the Japanese.”
…
His speculation was not without basis.
Governor Zhao has long been secretly paying attention to Cheng Qianfan. According to the information he obtained privately, Cheng Qianfan has been engaged in this kind of work of "taking people's money and eliminating disasters" for several years.
In most cases, Mr. Cheng and the former Inspector Cheng were very disciplined.
However, according to some secret information he has, there are a few cases that are quite strange:
Cheng Qianfan did take the money and helped to release the people.
However, after a while, the released person and even the donor who paid the bail disappeared inexplicably.
In addition, the most important thing is that Shuli Zhao judged from some details and his own experience that most of these people had unknown origins, or to be more precise, they probably belonged to a certain party. In one case, he even suspected Cheng After Qianfan received the money, the person who helped to unblock his release might be a comrade from the Red Party.
Of course, it was just suspicion, he had no proof.
Yes, Zhao Shuli had been the detective of the patrol room for many years and had rich experience in investigating cases. However, he did not have any clear clues about Cheng Qianfan.
However, just having suspicion is enough. Councilor Zhao suspected that Cheng Qianfan first collected money to do things, and then waited for the news to pass, and then started secretly.
And considering that Cheng Qianfan has always hated the color red and was close to the Japanese, the identities of those who disappeared can be guessed:
Either they are anti-Japanese agents from the national government or comrades of our party.
…
Among them, the one who impressed Shu Li very deeply was a boss named Tao.
At that time, Cheng Qianfan was just an ordinary patrolman, so he secretly used his teacher Xiu Gongshen's relationship to get Boss Tao out of the patrol room.
The two even became friends after that.
Then one day, Shu Li Zhao suddenly discovered that Boss Tao had completely disappeared.
Later, he learned through his own news channels that Boss Tao might be an agent of the National Secret Service, and might even have died at the hands of the Japanese.
Cardinal Zhao couldn't help but suspect that Cheng Qianfan sold Boss Tao to the Japanese.
This was the first time he doubted Cheng Qianfan's evil nature and traitorous nature.
…
"What do you think?" Zhang Ping said.
"Half!" Cardinal Zhao said without hesitation, "Half the ransom."
Zhang Ping showed a surprised and puzzled expression, "Why halve it? Not double it? I asked about Mr. Cheng's temperament. The more money you give him, the harder he works."
"The amount of money you planned to take out at the beginning is enough to make Cheng Qianfan nod. There is no need to double it, but it will prompt Cheng Qianfan to target you in advance. Cheng Qianfan..." Shu Li said, looking at Zhang Ping. One glance, "Maybe Cheng Qianfan plans to have both wealth and wealth."
Zhang Ping then smiled charmingly and rolled her eyes at Shu Li Zhao.
"As for why it was halved?" Shuli Zhao smiled and said, "Because the other half is for my hard work."
He looked at Zhang Ping and said, "I will talk to Cheng Qianfan personally about this matter."
"No!" Zhang Ping immediately shook her head and refused, "This will expose your involvement in this matter."
"Do you think I won't be exposed if I don't come forward?" Councilor Zhao smiled bitterly, "Everyone may be deceived by Cheng Qianfan's greed for money and lust, but no one has ever thought-"
He took a long puff of cigarette and exhaled the smoke, "A young man became the deputy chief inspector of the Central Police Station at the age of twenty-four. He was extremely supported by his brothers. He also had the support of Jin Kemu, who had always had a bad attitude toward the Japanese. He has a good attitude towards this pro-Japanese guy.”
"The French also like him. He and Peter from the Political Department also run one of the most important black market businesses in the French Concession. The Youth Gang also respects him a bit."
"Those lake bandits and guys flying around are also brothers to him."
"Cheng Qianfan has always been very friendly to the Japanese."
He also did business with Americans. "
"If you calculate it carefully, Cheng Qianfan is involved in every force that can be counted in Shanghai. It can even be said that even Jin Kemu's intervention is not as useful as Cheng Qianfan's in some matters. Why, others recognize Cheng Qianfan and give him face? !”
"For such a person, many people were deceived by his greed for money and lust, but did not notice that this person was extremely capable and even extremely cunning!" Cardiff Zhao said to Zhang Ping.
…
"Once Cheng Qianfan is alerted, regardless of whether he is willing to collect money to help free people, the matter itself has attracted his attention. Once he investigates Bai Feiyu, he will definitely find you. At the same time, I secretly asked Mailan Even though we have been very careful in clearing up this matter, I have a hunch that this cannot be hidden from Cheng Qianfan's eyes." Shuli Zhao's expression was solemn.
"So, you might as well just come up to the table and let Cheng Qianfan think that you came out because you took my money to help save people." Zhang Ping said.
"Yes." Shu Li Zhao nodded, "There is one more thing that may make you wronged."
"What?" Zhang Ping raised her head and looked at Shuli Zhao.
"I will show my interest in you. This way, I can prevent Cheng Qianfan, a pervert, from having evil intentions towards you." Shu Li Zhao said, "But, in this way, it will damage your reputation..."
"I agree." Zhang Ping's eyes were bright, and she just looked into Shuli Zhao's eyes without flinching.
"That's fine. I will come to see you sometimes. It's just the right thing to say." Shu Li Zhao nodded.
Zhao Shuli did not dare to look at Zhang Ping's hot eyes. He was not a stupid person. Zhang Ping had a good impression of him. He knew that he also knew that he had love for Zhang Ping in his heart. However, he subconsciously avoided this almost It is the love and revolutionary companionship that can be achieved by puncturing the window paper.
Zhang Ping smiled, feeling a little disappointed because of Shu Shu Zhao's avoidance. However, Shu Shu Zhao was thinking about her and worried that she would be entangled by Cheng Qianfan, a lecherous man, which also made Zhang Ping feel quite happy.
…
"Then do we still need to contact Tang Xiaoye?" Zhang Ping asked.
"Continue to contact us." Shuli Zhao said thoughtfully, "If possible, I would like to go with Miss Fang to meet Cheng Qianfan."
As he spoke, he added, "This makes it more real."
Looking at Zhang Ping, he said, "Because the progress here is too slow, you were worried about something happening to your relatives, so you contacted Tang Xiaoye through your friends."
"What if Cheng Qianfan suspected why your progress was slow before?" Zhang Ping asked.
"This is easier to explain." Shu Li Zhao said with a smile, "I deliberately act slowly so that I can get more from you."
"Then why did you suddenly show up and actively get involved in this matter?" Zhang Ping continued to ask.
"It's easy to explain." Cardiff Zhao lit a cigarette, "Seeing that the cooked duck is about to fly, I will try my best to get the share that 'should' belong to me no matter what."
Looking at the calm and unhurried Shu Li, Zhang Ping nodded and smiled.
…
Cheng Qianfan rolled down the window and threw the cigarette butt out.
Haozi, who went to the roadside to buy cigarettes, came back and handed several packs of Marlboros to Brother Fan.
Cheng Qianfan took out a note from two packs of cigarettes.
This was when Li Hao was buying cigarettes just now, he met Zhou Ru who was out shopping, and Zhou Ru gave it to him quietly.
Cheng Qianfan unfolded the note and read it.
His expression was serious and serious.
This is a secret message sent by Dai Chunfeng himself.
Dai Chuzuo attached great importance to the information he provided about Zeng Zhengmin's presence around Japan.
In the call back, Dai Chuzuo ordered the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group to find a way to send the captured Japanese agent Hideo Oku out of Shanghai to Chongqing.
Among them, the Shanghai Special Situation Team is responsible for sending people out of Shanghai, and then colleagues will take over. Of course, this section of the work they are responsible for is the most important and dangerous section.
…
Dai Chunfeng can be said to have issued a task that is extremely troublesome for frontline agents.
It is much more difficult to transport a living person, or to be precise, a prisoner, all the way to Chongqing than to deliver information or even supplies.
However, Cheng Qianfan could somewhat guess why Dai Chunfeng had such a telegram.
The reason is that, on the one hand, it may be of great importance and involves Wang Qianhai, so the Secret Service Headquarters pays special attention to it. Maybe even the 'principal' will pay attention to this matter. To be cautious, the superiors will interrogate it personally.
Another reason: Oku Hideo can be a witness when needed!
I understand Dai Chunfeng's consideration in issuing the order, but it does not mean that Cheng Qianfan accepts and supports this task from the bottom of his heart.
Without him, 'Kentaro Miyazaki' was too familiar with the operation of the Japanese special agencies and the deployment of checkpoints along the way out of Shanghai. It was almost impossible to transport the captured Japanese special agents out of Shanghai.
The most important thing is that Oku Hideo will obey the arrangements honestly?
not necessarily!
Cheng Qianfan boasted that he had captured and interrogated many Japanese special agents, and that he could accurately grasp and even see through many Japanese special agents.
However, he couldn't see through this Oku Hideo.
Cheng Qianfan even suspected that this guy was mentally ill.
Such a Hideo Oku is a time bomb.
You never know when something might go wrong.
…
In addition, there is another point. When Oku Hideo was interrogating, Cheng Qianfan appeared with the appearance and identity of 'Xiao Mian'. Oku Hideo should not recognize his true face.
However, Hao Zai was different. Although Oku Hideo did not say it out loud, his intuition told Cheng Qianfan that the Japanese agent should have recognized Hao Zai. After all, Hao Zai was already considered the number one figure in the central patrol house of the French Concession.
In addition, Ojiu Hideo also met Qiao Chuntao and Yang Changnian.
Once Oku Hideo escapes or is discovered and taken back by the Japanese, the consequences will be disastrous.
In Cheng Qianfan's plan, Hideo Oku must be eliminated for safety reasons.
Hao Zai once asked him privately whether it was possible to develop someone like Hideo Oku into a spy for the Japanese special team in Shanghai, just like Eguchi Hideya back then.
Cheng Qianfan flatly rejected this possibility.
It is true that there are Japanese people who may be willing to work for China and oppose Japanese imperialism.
However, as far as Cheng Qianfan knew, these were basically Japanese red fighters or comrades of the Red International.
Develop a captured Japanese agent into one of your own, and then send it back to Japan to become your own spy on the Japanese side?
Not to mention what Cheng Qianfan knew, there were very few Japanese special forces who were willing to betray Japan and work for China. Even if there were captured Japanese special forces who were willing to do this, Cheng Qianfan would not dare to trust them.
Once the other party betrays you, it may bring endless disaster!

The building in the community where the confirmed cases were confirmed was taken away and quarantined, and several surrounding buildings were fenced off with iron sheets to prevent them from leaving.
The author's house is just outside the iron fence, so he can move around freely in the community.
Especially after the emergency nucleic acid test last night, the nucleic acid result was negative, and today the community is open to allow people to go out for shopping. Thanks to the community for the humane arrangements.
I spent the whole day like a hard-working bee shopping less than a kilometer away from home.
I went to the supermarket three times. Why? Every time I go there, a lot of things are sold out, so I buy some first and send them home, and then when I come back, I see there are restocks and I buy them quickly...
Alas, I walked 10,000 steps in three trips back and forth to buy things. Can you believe it?
It was raining heavily today, so I had to change two sets of clothes.
Finally, I want to complain about the prices, but it would be nice to be able to stock up on things at this time.
