In Cheng Qianfan's memory, there are always some white pigeons flying over the sky in Shanghai, and the whistles of pigeons pierce the sky. When he is irritable, he will feel more irritable. When he is in a good mood, it is like an exciting serenade.
I don’t know when it started. White pigeons are rare and pigeon whistles no longer ring in my ears.
Probably after learning the sad news that his third brother died for his country.
Hold the fork in your left hand, cut off a small piece of roasted pigeon meat with your right hand, stab the pigeon meat directly with the fork, and slowly put it into your mouth.
He raised his head and glanced at the charming and beautiful woman opposite, and said lightly, "Why don't you eat it? It tastes good."
Zhang Ping glanced at 'Mr. Xiao Cheng', picked up the squab with her hands, tore off the pigeon's legs, and started to chew on it.
"Not ladylike at all." Cheng Qianfan frowned and put down his knife and fork.
After the customer next to him walked over, Cheng Qianfan picked up a square towel and wiped his mouth. He stared at Zhang Pingjiao's beautiful body and whispered, "Very good. This is how it is. Being coerced by the evil 'Mr. Xiao Cheng', I have no mercy." He doesn’t seem to want to come to the appointment.”
Zhang Ping gave Cheng Qianfan a cooperative look, "What does the organization think about this matter?"
"Chu Zhao thought of taking the initiative to report this matter to you, which shows that he made the decision after careful consideration, and also shows that he should have guessed something." Cheng Qianfan said.
"You mean harmonica?" Zhang Ping asked, and then she shook her head, "Shu Li Zhao doesn't know my code name."
"It's not the harmonica, it's the mood." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "I have also lost contact, and I feel the joy of returning home. Maybe you are careful to hide this joy and do not show it on the surface, but this kind of feeling The inner joy cannot be hidden in front of people who know you well."
Zhang Ping lowered her eyelids, was silent for a while, and nodded, "It's my responsibility."
"It doesn't matter if Governor Zhao can notice it. If he doesn't notice it at all, it shows his lack of ability." Cheng Qianfan said.
There is another point that he did not mention, but Zhang Ping also understood, that is, Councilor Zhao chose to take the initiative to report to Zhang Ping at this time, which in itself was a manifestation of a rigorous political attitude.
"So, what are you going to do as an organization? Will you have a direct dialogue with Cardinal Zhao?" Zhang Ping couldn't help but ask, "If the organization needs it, I can have a frank talk with Cardinal Zhao first."
"It's not appropriate at the moment." Cheng Qianfan said. His eyes stopped Zhang Ping from speaking. He took a sip of coffee and said slowly, "All of this is just Shu Li Zhao talking to himself. Further verification is needed in the organization."
"If it is verified that what Cardinal Zhao said is true, the organization will choose the right time to talk to Cardinal Zhao." Cheng Qianfan said.
"What do you need me to do?" Zhang Ping asked.
"Do nothing." Cheng Qianfan said, and then he thought for a while, "Well, you can cry to Cardinal Zhao about my harassment of you at the right time."
Zhang Ping almost laughed in her heart, but she had to make an angry expression on her face, as if she was irritated by Mr. Xiao Cheng's words.
"Wait for my news, and don't take the initiative to contact me. Remember, it was me who took the initiative to harass you, Ms. Zhang Ping." Cheng Qianfan raised a corner of his mouth, "In case of emergency, you can contact Lu Dazhang."
With that said, he stood up and walked over, placed his palm on Zhang Pingjiao's back, and rubbed it gently.
Zhang Ping frowned and twisted in dissatisfaction.
Mr. Xiao Cheng laughed loudly and strode away. In his ears, he vaguely heard words such as "Sex makes you stupid," and "Even Inspector Zhao's concubine dares to bully him."
Mr. Cheng glanced at it, and suddenly there was silence. He sneered and left with his head held high.
"Pooh!"
Some people waited until Mr. Cheng left before they dared to spit thick phlegm bitterly.
"Sir, please give me two yuan for the cleaning fee."
…
Outside the western restaurant, in an alley diagonally opposite.
"It's Cheng Qianfan, do you want to follow?"
"You go with Cheng Qianfan, and I'll keep an eye on Zhang Ping."
"Why don't you keep an eye on Cheng Qianfan." The short man looked at Daou and said dissatisfied.
Cheng Qianfan is a murderous local snake, following Cheng Qianfan?
If the ruthless Mr. Cheng found out, he might just throw it into the Huangpu River to feed the fish.
"You two, stop arguing." A voice sounded behind them.
The two looked back in horror and saw the black muzzle of the gun.
"Don't shout, don't be clever." Hao Zai turned around, and two of his men came over to search him, and fired their short guns, "Let's go, friend."
The two looked at each other, sighed in resignation, and were escorted away dejectedly.
"Brother Fan, that's the two of them." Hao Zai pointed at the two people who turned pale with fright and said.
"Zhang Xiaolin's people?"
"Yes, yes, we are Boss Zhang's people." The short man nodded fiercely and said.
"Dishonest." Cheng Qianfan shook his head.
Hao Zai punched the short man directly in the heart. Before the short man could even scream, his mouth was covered, and his body was bent like a prawn due to pain and spasm.
"Say." Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette, shook it, and put out the kerosene lighter in his hand with a click.
"Report to Mr. Cheng, we are from the Detective Brigade. Captain Wang arranged for us to follow Zhang Ping. We are not here for you." Daou said quickly.
"Wang Kangnian?" Cheng Qianfan frowned and his face darkened, "You want to steal a woman from me even though you are a weakling?"
"Mr. Cheng, you misunderstood. The captain suspected that Zhang Ping was a member of the Red Party, so, so..." Da Ou quickly explained that this was a bigger crime than following Cheng Qianfan.
"I will naturally check whether Zhang Ping is a red party member. If I know that you continue to harass Zhang Ping again." Cheng Qianfan said secretly, "It's cold, and the fish in the Huangpu River are short of food and clothing."
"Don't dare, don't dare." Daou said quickly.
At the same time, I felt relieved.
Cheng Qianfan nodded with satisfaction, then suddenly his expression changed, and he pointed at the short man, "Break his legs."
"Mr. Cheng, Grandpa Cheng, I didn't do anything, I didn't say anything." The short man was frightened, and then he heard a scream.
Cheng Qianfan didn't even look at this person and walked straight to his car.
"You are dishonest." Hao Zai said with a sneer, and then glanced at Da Ou who was standing aside, "Your brother is not particular. He must have been thinking of going back to sue you just now."
With that said, Hao Zai patted Da Ou on the shoulder, chuckled, and left with his men.
Da Ou looked at his colleagues who were screaming on the ground with a gloomy face.
"I didn't." The short man endured the pain and said defensively.
"Do you have it? You know it yourself." Daou bent down and stood up for his colleagues, but he sighed, "Brother, be smart and be tight-lipped. You still don't understand. This is a battle between big shots, we are just small guys. To survive, eh..."
The short man felt hurt and wronged. What did he do...
…
Extraordinary courses.
"You said Wang Kangnian sent someone to follow you?" Sanbonjiro asked in a deep voice.
"According to what Wang Kangnian's men said, they were following Zhang Ping, saying that Wang Kangnian suspected that Zhang Ping was a member of the Red Party." Cheng Qianfan said.
"You think this reason is false?"
"It's hard to say." Cheng Qianfan looked thoughtful, "Jin Kemu helped me make peace with Shuli Zhao, but I still sent someone to investigate secretly."
Sanbonjiro motioned to Miyazaki Kentaro to continue.
"Three Eyelids was once beaten up by Shu Li Zhao's men, and this person owed a huge gambling debt. We cannot rule out the possibility that this person framed Zhang Ping, defrauded Zhang Ping of the reward, and also threw a basin of dirty water at Shu Li Zhao." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Of course, the most important thing is that after investigation, this woman Zhang Ping is very simple and there is nothing obviously suspicious." Cheng Qianfan said, "So, in order to understand this woman more deeply, my subordinates have to..."
"Are you investigating Zhang Ping?" Sanbonjiro nodded slightly after listening to Kentaro Miyazaki's explanation in an orderly manner. When he heard this, his expression changed and he couldn't help but cursed, "You are eyeing Zhang Ping's beauty. So sexy!"
"Section Chief Mingjian." Kentaro Miyazaki didn't feel ashamed at all. Instead, he said frankly, "This is a matter of public and private matters."
"Bag ducks down!" Sanbonjiro cursed.
"Hai." Cheng Qianfan put his legs together and lowered his head.
…
"Miyazaki-kun." Araki Harima couldn't stand it any longer. "You said before that Councilor Zhao was valuable in winning over, and now you're trying to seduce his concubine..."
"It is precisely because I want to win over Shu Li Zhao that my subordinate's actions are indispensable." Cheng Qianfan said.
Araki Harima was stunned. His words were meant to remind Kentaro Miyazaki that this guy puts business first and admitted his mistakes to the section chief. He didn't expect this guy to be so sophistical.
What he didn't expect even more was that Sanbonjiro actually looked thoughtful.
"Tell me about your considerations?" Sanbonjiro asked in a deep voice.
"Chief Zhao is a Chinese detective, and he seems to have a lot of power. However, because he has no real solid backing, his position in the French Concession is quite embarrassing."
Cheng Qianfan looked at Sanbonjiro and showed that the section chief was really powerful and understood me, and continued, "How does a man feel when he can't even keep his own woman?"
When Araki Harima heard this, he understood a little bit and showed a thoughtful expression.
"I am the catalyst for Shu Li's ambition." Cheng Qianfan showed a proud look, "Great Shanghai belongs to the empire, and Shu Li Zhao is a smart man, so he naturally realizes this. Maybe he used to think about his own acre in the French Concession. He can live a peaceful life with only three points of land, but now he realizes that he must find a bigger supporter, otherwise, not to mention his woman, even he himself will be in danger."
Araki Harima frowned, then suddenly realized, and said, "You have taken advantage of Shuli Zhao's woman, and Shuhu Zhao must have become a thorn in your side. It's impossible for Shuli Zhao not to understand this. Whether he wants to protect himself or take revenge, he needs the help of the empire." .”
"That's exactly the truth." Cheng Qianfan nodded and joked, "Araki-kun, this is where you are far inferior to the section chief. The section chief saw through my plan at a glance."
As he said that, he looked at Sanbonjiro and said, "Section Chief Ming Jian Wanli."
Sanbonjiro touched his chin, feeling satisfied. Yes, he had seen through Miyazaki's plan a long time ago.
Then, he snorted, "If I hadn't seen through your thoughts, how could I have spared you?"
He glared at Kentaro Miyazaki, "I don't want to care about your thoughts about that Chinese woman. I just hope you keep it in mind."
"Please give instructions to the section chief." Cheng Qianfan said respectfully.
"Don't abandon public service for personal reasons." Sanbonjiro said in a deep voice, "Remember, you are an excellent agent of the empire."
"Hai." Cheng Qianfan bowed and said.
…
"Araki, please tell Miyazaki the results of your investigation." Sanbonjiro said.
"According to our secret investigation, although Oku Hideo is an agent of the Imperial Nishimura Squad, Qiu Xing, who pretended to be Oku Hideo's wife, is not from the Nishimura Squad," Araki Harima said.
"Isn't this Qiu Xing a citizen of the empire?" Cheng Qianfan asked with surprise.
"No, Qiu Xing is indeed a subject of the empire. Her real name is Kamura Yumi. It is currently impossible to verify which agency Kamura Yumi belongs to. However, it has been confirmed that the man who secretly met Kamura Yumi is from the Military Attaché of the Consulate General. Eguchi Hideya," Araki Harima said.
"Eguchi Hideya?" Cheng Qianfan looked surprised.
"Miyazaki-kun knows this person?"
"The section chief should still remember something reported by his subordinates the year before last year." Cheng Qianfan looked at Sanbonjiro, "Previously, the empire had intended to recruit the inspector of the public concession, Li Fei, through my introduction and contact with Li Fei. The person in charge of this matter is Eguchi Hideya, so this subordinate has had contact with Eguchi-kun."
"Eguchi Hideya is now not only the second-class military attaché of the Imperial Consulate General in Shanghai, he also has another identity." Mimotojiro thought for a while and said, "According to the secret investigation, Eguchi Hideya is also Iwai-dono's second-class military attache." It’s also quite popular there.”
"Iwai Mansion?" Cheng Qianfan asked in surprise.
He wasn't pretending this time, he really didn't know that Hideya Eguchi had also secretly joined the Iwai Mansion.
…
"The Iwai Mansion has formed a relatively secretive action team, and Eguchi Hide is a highly used officer among them." Araki Harima explained.
"So, it is Iwai Mansion that is wooing Cardinal Zhao?" Cheng Qianfan touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
"Maybe it's the Iwai Mansion, maybe it's another agency." Sanbonjiro shook his head, "These are not important. The important thing is that we discovered it earlier."
"What the section chief means is that Shuli Zhao has not really committed to a certain party?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a look of joy.
"According to the information revealed by those close to Cardinal Zhao, the conditions proposed by Cardinal Zhao are quite harsh and they have not yet reached an agreement." Sanbonjiro frowned and said, "This person is very greedy."
"Is it because of money? Or is it because of job requirements?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"In terms of money, Shu Li Zhao's request is quite reasonable." Araki Harima said, "This is a smart man. He knows that as long as he has greater power, money will naturally not be a problem. In fact, being overly focused on money is short-sighted behavior. .”
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Araki Harima and said, "What do you want me to do?"
Sanbonjiro nodded to Araki Harima.
Araki Harima then said, "As far as we know, Cardinal Zhao's request to Kamura Yumi is to ask the empire to find a way to get you down. His target is the deputy chief inspector of the central district patrol room."
