Zhang Jianghe initially thought that Tang Cheng was joking with him, but after he personally saw the compiled confession files and the prisoners in the dungeon, he had to admit that Tang Cheng was not joking with him. "Why did you arrest so many people?" Zhang Jianghe never underestimated the abilities of these veteran policemen in Tangcheng, but he never expected that there were actually more than 30 prisoners detained in Tangcheng. Even if it were another person Chongqing Station has never arrested so many criminals in one operation.
If someone else had asked him such a question, Tang Cheng might have turned around and left. But when this person was Zhang Jianghe, Tang Cheng could only patiently explain it carefully. "The situation is like this. We didn't expect so many people to be arrested at the time, and more and more clues were drawn from them. If we don't think of a way, I really have no place here to use." Tang Cheng sounded like he was complaining, but there was a hint of pride hidden in his actual words. After all, the harvest this time was not small.
Zhang Jianghe said he didn't want to talk to Tang Cheng, but as soon as he changed his face, he immediately dispatched a large number of people from Chongqing Station. Not only did Tang Cheng and the others take away Nitta Yoshi and the others who were the first to be arrested and interrogated, but they also specially left behind A team of people came to cooperate with the search team's next operations in the city. "Captain, it will be much easier for us now! Moreover, we will avoid a lot of trouble when sealing the gates in the city. Not everyone can afford to offend the military commander!" Lao Fu came to Tangcheng with a cunning smile on his face. Next to him, he looked like a chicken thief after he succeeded, which made Tang Cheng extremely upset.
The search team's operation in the city can be basically divided into three steps. The first step was for Tang Cheng to personally capture Nitta Yoshi and the others. The second step is for Tangcheng to call the three of Nitta Yoshi overnight, and then use the clues found from these three people to confirm and capture the traitors developed by Nitta Yoshi and the other three. The last step is also what Lao Fu and other veteran police officers are most concerned about, which is to temporarily take care of the traitor's family and seal up the traitor's property.
The search team is organized in the police station, and the members also have police titles. However, from the day they join the search team, they no longer receive salary from the police station. In other words, these members of the search team are all supported by Tangcheng. Their salary consists of part of the basic monthly salary, part of the daily subsidy, and the last part is the action reward. It only depends on the operating share of the labor camp outside the city and the store in the city. The salary received by the search team members is not very large, so the action reward This became the biggest hope for Lao Fu and the others to secretly save their private money.
"Don't be too happy. As long as the criminal is handed over to the Chongqing Station, after the case is over, the detailed information must be reported to the Military Command Headquarters. This case involves so many people. I think those who were finally arrested are among them. , and some even know senior officials of the city government. If this is known by some people at the military command headquarters, they might come to complain about it, so we can’t eat alone this time. Chongqing Station must share the profits. Two.”
Tang Cheng habitually tapped the table with his fingers. When Lao Fu saw this, he immediately shut up and waited for Tang Cheng to continue. After a while, Tang Cheng opened his eyes after closing his eyes and thinking deeply, "First find out the details of the following group of people, and then send the detailed information to Chongqing Station. We will split it 50-50 with Chongqing Station this time. But the case involves We must have priority in selecting all stores in the city, and this is absolutely non-negotiable!" Tang Cheng's attitude at this moment was regarded as the final decision in Lao Fu's eyes, so he turned around and left with a smile.
What Tang Cheng was worried about emerged one day later. Although the search team's arrest operation was considered secretive and the family members of these traitors were temporarily under custody, the news was still leaked. Most of the traitors who could be developed into insiders by the Japanese army were people with some status in Chongqing. The search team directly arrested more than 20 people this time, and some people in the city government were immediately unhappy. "Brother Tang, I was forced to have no choice but to make this call to you. Tell me the truth. Do you have conclusive evidence about the people you arrested?"
The person who called Tang Cheng was Wang Bingzhang, an old acquaintance. Although Tang Cheng gradually had less contact with Wang Bingzhang after returning from Shanghai, this did not prevent Wang Bingzhang from calling Tang Cheng. Wang Bingzhang actually didn't want to call Tang Cheng. Last time because of his brother-in-law's matter, Wang Bingzhang had to bow his head in front of Tang Cheng and gave his wife's favorite set of jade jewelry to Tang Cheng for free. As the chief of Chongqing police, he How could he not feel resentment towards Tang Cheng in his heart.
But this time it was different. Tangcheng's search team had arrested more than 20 people in the city. Among these people, not only were familiar faces that Wang Bingzhang knew, but a few of them even had connections with the provincial government. Wang Bingzhang was determined to climb up the ranks, and the position of Chongqing Police Chief could no longer satisfy him. If he could gain connections with the provincial government through these people, he might be able to go further. However, Wang Bingzhang was cunning by nature. When he got the news, he did not get involved in the matter. He just asked his subordinates to collect relevant information, but he himself became a bystander.
Sure enough, on the third day after the news spread, someone quietly contacted Wang Bingzhang, saying that as long as Wang Bingzhang could get two people out of Tangcheng's hands, someone in the provincial government would naturally provide money and effort to help Wang Bingzhang. Wang Bingzhang was familiar with Tang Cheng. This was not new news in Chongqing. However, more than 99% of the people who knew the news did not know that Wang Bingzhang and Tang Cheng had become enemies over trivial matters.
Tang Cheng is ruthless, but he likes to be straightforward. Wang Bingzhang's character is exactly what Tang Cheng doesn't like. Wang Bingzhang took the initiative to call him, which Tang Cheng never expected. However, as soon as Wang Bingzhang came up, he asked about the traitor insiders caught by the search team, which immediately made Tang Cheng guess Wang Bingzhang's intention. After waiting for a while, Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone finally spoke.
"Wang Bureau, to be honest, this matter is very big and has involved too many people. Please don't get involved anymore!" Tang Cheng knew that Wang Bingzhang had a suspicious temper, so he didn't say it clearly on the phone. The vague tone and attitude were deliberately used. Wang Bingzhang on the other end of the phone was indeed fooled, and immediately continued to question Tang Cheng on the phone, while Tang Cheng continued to persuade the other party. "Wang Ju, really, don't get involved in this matter, it's not cost-effective!"
Wang Bingzhang's reaction was indeed as Tang Cheng expected. The more Tang Cheng responded to Wang Bingzhang with this tone and attitude, the more suspicious Wang Bingzhang realized that Tang Cheng was hiding something from him, so he ignored Tang Cheng's good intentions to "persuad" , Wang Bingzhang still asked the previous questions on the phone. "Wang Ju, do I know if you are asking these questions on your own terms or on someone else's terms?" Wang Bingzhang had fallen into the trap unknowingly. Tang Cheng felt secretly happy and immediately began to ask Wang Bingzhang questions.
Wang Bingzhang naturally would not admit that he was someone else's lobbyist. He just vaguely said on the other end of the phone that someone he knew was asking for help. "Wang Bureau, it's not that my brother doesn't give you this face, it's just that you are a step too late. Several important criminals involved in the case have been taken away by the military commander. Other prisoners temporarily detained have also been registered by Chongqing Station. If If their people find out that I am missing someone here, this will cause trouble!" Tang Cheng has always been a master who refuses to let go of rabbits. Even if Wang Bingzhang wants to play the trick of empty gloves and white wolves, he must come up with something to let Tang The city is satisfied with the bargaining chip.
Tang Cheng's words made Wang Bingzhang feel relieved. He suddenly thought of the new deputy station director of Chongqing Station. Last time at the Huibin Building, he and the deputy station director were quite familiar. Through the conversation just now, Wang Bingzhang knew that Tang Cheng had no hope. Zhang Jianghe had a close relationship with Tang Cheng, so naturally he could not agree to his request. Now it seems that the only person I can ask for help is the deputy station director of Chongqing Station.
Wang Bingzhang could think of the new deputy chief of the Chongqing Station at this time. This was definitely not an idea that came out by chance. Even if there was no such difficulty at hand, Wang Bingzhang planned to have a good relationship with the deputy chief. Tang Cheng, who was still holding the phone at this moment, was secretly frightened. Wang Bingzhang on the other end of the phone changed from his previous submissiveness. Although there was no obvious flaw in his words, Tang Cheng could clearly hear that Wang Bingzhang seemed to have found a solution.
He caught the people himself, but now they have begun to be handed over to Chongqing Station. If Wang Bingzhang wants to recruit people from Chongqing Station, he needs to go through Zhang Jiang and the station master first. What kind of person Zhang Jianghe is, perhaps only Tangcheng in Chongqing knows best. Not to mention whether Zhang Jianghe can give up justice for personal gain, just talk about Wang Bingzhang. Tangcheng also feels that this guy dare not go to Zhang Jianghe to intercede. .
Since it was not Zhang Jianghe, who else could Wang Bingzhang go to? Tang Cheng, who had doubts in his heart, wanted to trick Wang Bingzhang, but Wang Bingzhang on the other end of the phone hung up first, which made Tang Cheng secretly grind his teeth for a while. After putting down the phone, Tang Cheng pondered secretly for a while. When he couldn't find the answer, he simply called Zhang Jianghe and told Zhang Jianghe everything about what Wang Bingzhang had just asked him to do.
"Uncle, what do you think Wang Bingzhang means? I didn't expect him to call, but from what I saw, he seemed to be just trying to get people out of my side. He didn't want to get involved in this matter!" Tang Cheng, who made the call, still wanted to test Zhang Jianghe, so he did not tell the truth. At least he did not tell Zhang Jianghe the suspicions he had about Wang Bingzhang on the phone.
