This matter is really not easy to handle.
Liu Shouyi's identity is the clerk of the court.
Lixingshe has great power and can conduct secret arrests at will. However, there is a certain kind of person that they cannot bring back for interrogation without conclusive evidence:
Of the court!
Since entering the Republic of China, whether the Nationalist government is real or fake, whether it really wants to make a difference or is just acting, the judicial construction has made great progress.
Especially after entering the golden decade, even those Western developed countries believe that China's judicial construction has entered a new and good stage.
In addition, Ju Zheng, the president of the Judicial Yuan, was the founder of China's modern judicial system. He participated in the formulation of the "Provisional Constitution of the Republic of China" and served as the president of the Judicial Yuan for a long time.
He contradicted Chiang Kai-shek and was imprisoned for two years, but that was nothing. The most arrogant thing is that he has made all kinds of efforts to abolish foreign extraterritorial rights in China. Even the great powers had to work carefully in front of him with a smile on their faces when they saw him.
If you dare to arrest people from the court before there is conclusive evidence, it will be a big hole in the sky.
By then, let alone Dai Li, not even Chiang Kai-shek would be able to protect him.
There is also Xu Deshan, and in the background is Ma Chaojun, the veteran of the Tongmenghui, who is a tougher nut to crack than Liu Shouyi.
Meng Shaoyuan understood these principles.
what to do?
Who is sitting in the Citroen sedan?
Who was the person who instigated Liu Shouyi to have secret contact with Takahashi Iemasa?
Meng Shaoyuan searched his mind for a long time, recalling the memories of his past life one by one, but he couldn't find any signs.
"Lao Yuan, Lao Xiang, you continue to stare here." Meng Shaoyuan thought there for a long time: "Old Mu, come with me to Henglong Trading Company to do business."
"Captain Meng, I have to remind you." Mu Dekai was a little worried: "Xu Deshan and several old men from the Shanghai Youth Gang, Huang Huangrong, Du Yuesheng, and Ji Yunqing are all friends. Moreover, the Youth Gang is in our Tang Gang in Nanjing. Gao Shenxing, the master of Yitang, is also his guest."
Ji Yunqing?
Meng Shaoyuan sneered, Ji Yunqing's apprentice had just been killed by him.
These so-called Youth Gang bosses are nothing more than a group of gangster leaders...
…
Henglong Trading Company is easy to find, located next to Jiangnan Gongyuan. Further east is the Confucius Temple, one of the "Four Major Confucian Temples in China".
There were two men in short coats standing at the door, and they looked like they had guys on their waists.
How does this look like a company doing serious business?
"Stop, who are you looking for?" A gatekeeper blocked the way.
"Hello, please inform me that Meng Shaoyuan from Caodu Lane wants to see you."
Mu Dekai was cunning and cunning. He did not explain his identity and only said that he was from Caodu Lane.
But as soon as Xu Deshan heard it, he would immediately know that this was someone from Lixingshe.
"Wait." The doorman walked in.
After waiting outside for seven or eight minutes, a young foreigner came out. As he walked, he complained unhappily in English.
Meng Shaoyuan listened carefully and saw what the foreigner was saying, "A bunch of hooligans are so unreasonable" and so on.
Good guy, Xu Deshan is so arrogant, he doesn't even give foreigners face.
After waiting for another ten minutes, the man who went in to report the news finally came out, lazily saying: "Go in, Boss Xu has agreed to see you, hurry up."
Mu Dekai leaned into Meng Shaoyuan's ear and whispered: "Captain Meng, it's not easy to handle. Wherever we go, as soon as we show our identity, people will give us some respect, but here, we have been waiting for almost twenty minutes. The gatekeeper They don’t even take us seriously.”
yes.
Meng Shaoyuan also felt a little helpless.
In the living room, a man in his fifties, wearing a gray robe, was drinking tea and talking to a man in a black shirt, looking very intimate.
"The one in gray robe is Xu Deshan. The one in black robe is Gao Shenxing, the master of Shengyi Hall."
Mudkai knew all of these people.
"Boss Xu." Meng Shaoyuan clasped his fists in accordance with etiquette: "I take the liberty of coming to disturb you. I hope Boss Xu will respect you."
Xu Deshan looked him up and down: "You're from Caodu Lane? Isn't that the Second Division of the Military Command Bureau? You old Tang, ah, Tang Zong and I are old friends. What about you? Which department are you in?"
Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Chief Tang turns out to be my immediate boss, and I have just been transferred to the second department."
"The Second Department, Dai Yunong personally directed it." Xu Deshan was very familiar with the Second Department: "What are you doing in the Second Department?"
He was not treating guests like this, but rather interrogating prisoners.
Meng Shaoyuan didn't care about his attitude: "Captain of the Sixth Squadron of the Second Squadron, Meng Shaoyuan."
"It turned out to be a squad leader."
Xu Deshan sneered and didn't take the team leader in front of him seriously at all: "My Henglong is not working now. Any kind of soldiers and crabs dare to come in. Tang Zong has to call me in advance when he comes to my place. Tell me, Captain Meng , What business do you have here with me?"
Your grandson, what are you doing so carelessly?
Meng Shaoyuan didn't talk nonsense to him: "Boss Xu, we are investigating a case and found a Citroën car. Someone recognized that car as belonging to your boss Xu. I came here today just to ask, what happened to Boss Xu recently?" Did you lend the car to anyone else, and if so, who did you lend it to?”
Xu Deshan smiled: "Captain Meng, the car is mine. I can lend it to whomever I am willing to lend it to. But there is no law under the Nationalist Government that even borrowing a car is illegal? What obligation do I have to report to you?"
Meng Shaoyuan held back his anger: "Boss Xu, what we are investigating is a major case, and we sincerely ask Boss Xu to cooperate. Otherwise, we will delay the important matter, and I'm afraid you and I won't be able to afford it."
There was a "pop" sound.
Xu Deshan slammed the tea bowl on the table with such force that the tea spilled out. He glared at Meng Shaoyuan: "A little captain actually went to Henglong to threaten me? Do you want to know if I can lend my car to you?" Who is it? Okay, let Dai Yunong ask me. You are not qualified yet!"
Meng Shaoyuan was angry.
For the first time since he arrived, he was truly angry: "Boss Xu, I am indeed just a squad leader, but I represent the Second Division of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Military Commission. Brother, I am here today for official business. You If you refuse to cooperate, it will make everyone lose face."
"Someone is coming!"
Gao Shenxing, who had been silent all this time, started to cry.
Suddenly, seven or eight big men with daggers and axes rushed in and surrounded Meng Shaoyuan and Mu Dekai.
Meng Shao originally acted as if nothing had happened, but Mu Dekai's expression changed drastically.
Gao Shenxing pointed at them and cursed:
"If you are blind, you won't even see where this place is!"
"This is the capital of the Republic of China, Nanjing!" Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Don't you know?"
"you!"
"Forget it, Brother Gao." Although Xu Deshan was angry, he did not dare to really hurt the agents of Lixingshe: "Let's go, let's go, Captain Meng, I don't have what you want here."
Meng Shaoyuan sneered: "I have already explained the words, and I have already done the things. What to do next is your boss Xu's business. We will always meet again."
After saying that, he cupped his fists and said, "Goodbye!"
