"Sir, all 250,000 yen are here."
Meng Shaoyuan looked at the money in front of him and yawned: "Did the robbery go smoothly?"
"It went well." Zhao Yun said calmly: "The Japanese-controlled areas have been peaceful recently, and they relaxed their vigilance, so they were able to successfully rob the money. However, the Japanese side will definitely tighten their vigilance in the future, and if they want to It’s not that easy to rob.”
"Robbery again? Why do you think I am a robber?"
Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "These two hundred and fifty thousand yen are enough for me. Li Zhifeng, help me get 20,000 yen, and I will leave the rest."
Li Zhifeng took away 20,000 yen from it without saying a word.
Zhao Yun didn't understand what it meant, but Li Zhifeng knew it very well.
Yesterday in the casino, the commander lost 20,000 yen, all of which he paid out of his own pocket. With his character, the commander is willing to suffer this loss and lose his own money?
That is something that must be repaired!
"Zhao Yun, please arrange a few people tonight to personally lead the team and prepare to wait for my dispatch." Meng Shaoyuan yawned: "I can't do it anymore. I have been busy all night. I have to go to sleep."
…
"A reserve fund worth 250,000 yen from the Central Bank was hijacked, and all the escorts died."
Zhou Fohai, who was in a meeting in Shanghai, looked very ugly when he heard this report.
This time, the meeting was originally organized by the Japanese side and brought together by the gendarmerie, Japanese special agencies, and representatives of the Wang Puppet regime to discuss how to expand the influence of the Wang Puppet regime in Shanghai and how to further control Shanghai's finance.
But the meeting had only been open for one day when the bad news was received.
"That's unreasonable." Zhou Fohai's face turned livid: "The financial war is going on today, and the military commanders openly robbed people in the security area. We must catch the robbers immediately and recover this huge sum of money!"
"President." Pang Tingfan, general manager of the Shanghai Branch of the Reserve Bank of China, said hurriedly: "In view of the large number of counterfeit Japanese yen that have appeared on the market before, and many of them are well-made, even bank insiders have difficulty distinguishing the genuine from the fake. In order to guard against counterfeiting, Money, we thought of a stupid way, we marked most of the money, and this reserve fund is the first batch!"
"Oh, really?" Zhou Fohai perked up.
"Yes, this is Lu Wenpu's idea."
"Lu Wenpu? Okay, okay." Zhou Fohai nodded repeatedly: "It should be praised, it should be praised. As soon as this money appears on the market, we can follow the clues and catch these robbers!"
"I think it's a little strange." Li Shiqun frowned and said, "Logically speaking, the military command has expressed its intention to cease the war before, so why did it suddenly take action again?"
Koichi Hahara, who came to the meeting on behalf of the Japanese special agencies, said slowly: "This matter is very strange. According to our intelligence, the military agents operating in the security area have ample funds, and they generally do not do such things.
If it’s just for a mere 250,000 yen…”
"Your Excellency Hahara, this is a huge sum of money." Zhou Fohai interrupted him to remind him.
"I know, this is a huge sum of money." Koichi Hahara was not affected at all: "But Zhao Yun, who is in charge of the command in the security area, still won't take a fancy to this money. The risk is too great."
"What if one of his men acted alone?"
"No way." Hanbara Koichi shook his head and said: "As our blockade becomes increasingly strengthened, the scope of military commanders' activities in the security area is shrinking. In order to avoid exposure, they have to break up into parts.
I just read the on-site report of the robbery. According to eyewitnesses, there were at least fifteen robbers. They were fully equipped with weapons and equipment, and even used explosives. They also acted quickly, and the hijacking time was very short.
To mobilize this force, only their commander-in-chief Zhao Yun can do it in the security area. Will he go to war for 250,000 yen? If he really is this kind of person, then we don't have to worry about him at all. "
If it wasn't the military commander who did it, who would it be?
Koichi Hahara didn't have an answer either.
"I also don't think it was done by the military commander." Yamaki Keizao frowned: "The other party knows the transportation route, time, and escort personnel very clearly. I suspect..."
He did not continue.
But everyone knows his subtext:
Maybe it was done by an insider!
"No matter what, we still need to recover this money as soon as possible." Zhou Fohai had a headache: "Comprehensive surveillance, once anyone using this marked yen appears, arrest him immediately!"
…
"Safety."
Li Zhifeng came to Meng Shaoyuan and whispered.
"Go." Meng Shaoyuan lit a cigarette.
Li Zhifeng stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened.
An exotic and extremely beautiful face poked out from inside.
When she saw clearly who was coming, she was startled:
"It's you!"
Then her face showed ecstasy: "Is he coming too?"
Li Zhifeng nodded, and then shook his head at her slightly seriously.
Lu Baoer understood immediately: "Come in through the back door."
…
This is the first time Meng Shaoyuan has come to Lu Wenpu's home.
There are three people in his family, Lu Wenpu, his French wife, and his daughter Lu Baoer.
His wife is in poor health and is bedridden all year round.
Lu Wenpu is off today.
Just like Lu Baoer, he never dreamed that this person would come:
Meng Shaoyuan!
Director of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Supervision Division of the Military Unification Bureau, Shanghai District Chief, and Shanghai Wang Meng Shaoyuan!
"Mr. Meng, I have admired your name for a long time. I finally meet you today. I am very lucky." Lu Wenpu was a little excited and held Meng Shaoyuan's hand tightly:
"Mr. Meng, this is an area controlled by the Japanese. Why did you take the risk?"
"Mr. Lu has helped us so much, but I have never thanked him in person. Even if it's a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, I have to come." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile:
"Moreover, the Japanese have completely trusted you now, and even the sentries monitoring you have been withdrawn, so Mr. Lu doesn't have to worry about the safety of my trip."
Meng Shaoyuan was really not afraid.
Lu Wenpu behaves like a "traitor" now. Especially on the issue of the implementation of China Reserve Bonds, he has expressed a lot of "insights and insights", which has won the praise of the Japanese and the Wang puppet regime.
Before coming, Meng Shaoyuan sent Xu Lesheng to conduct a careful observation near the Lu family to confirm that there was no danger. Only then did Meng Shaoyuan dare to come.
Lu Baoer's expression was really happy and proud: "Dad, I have told you a long time ago that there is nothing in Shanghai that Brother Meng cannot do, and there is no place that Brother Meng dare not go to. Hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops in Houjia Village surrounded Meng Brother, there is nothing he can do."
Fortunately, Li Zhifeng was watching outside and was not nearby, otherwise he would have sneered at him again.
What a bullshit, when did hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops trap Master Meng in Houjiacun?
