Bingcheng Police Department, Deputy Director's Office.
Shibuya Saburo had just returned from a meeting at the Kwantung Army's intelligence agency in Ice City. His adjutant, Second Lieutenant Ono, followed closely behind him and reached out to take the black jacket he took off and hang it on the hanger.
"Sir, Hyacinth sent a message saying that her identity may have been discovered. In addition, Zhou Sen was not on duty today. He went out early in the morning. His big subordinate was also there. What was he going to do? ,no one knows."
"Well, I understand, help me make an appointment with squad leader Toshi Yamamoto of the Ice Special Agent." Saburo Shibuya nodded, as if he didn't care about the news, and ordered.
"Hai, are you having Director Bai's family dinner tonight?"
"Well, I can make an appointment a little later when I meet Director Yamamoto Satoshi after attending Director Shiro's family dinner."
"OK."
"Dong dong..."
"Director Lin, why are you here?" Ono went to open the door and found Lin Dakuan, the investigation director of the Secret Service Section, standing outside the door.
"Is Mr. Shibuya here? Do you have something to report?"
"Director Lin, please come in." Before Ono could speak, the voice of Saburo Shibuya, who was changing clothes, came over.
"Thank you, Adjutant Ono!" Lin Dakuan nodded and walked into the office.
"Director Lin, if you have anything to do, please tell me directly?" Saburo Shibuya asked, adjusting the position of his tie in the mirror.
"I discovered something, and I came here to report it to you, Mr. Shibuya." Lin Dakuan took a step closer and said, "Zhou Sen's subordinate Ye Saner was detained by the Taipingqiao Gambling House the day before yesterday. He was said to be a cheat in the casino. , asked Zhou Sen to redeem the person himself with money, and I found out from the bottom that someone might be secretly jealous of Zhou Sen's promotion, so he set up this trap and used the second son of the Qin family to retaliate..."
"Who did that? Can he bribe the second young master of the Qin family?"
"It's hard to say this."
"Is it difficult to say, or do you dare not say?" Shibuya Saburo turned around and glanced at Lin Dakuan with cold eyes.
"As far as I know, it's Mr. Qiu Shan's secretary Jin Suying from Nangang Police Station, but I don't know if this is..." Lin Dakuan lowered his head and said cautiously.
"This matter has nothing to do with Mr. Akiyama, don't think too much about it." Saburo Shibuya interrupted directly, "What else have you found out? Tell me about it?"
"Yes, I also found out that Zhou Sen has a close relationship with Bai Yulan, the proprietress of Ningxiang Pavilion. My people saw the girl next to Bai Yulan appearing next to Zhou Sen." Lin Dakuan lowered his head and said.
"Well, very good, continue to keep an eye on Zhou Sen. In addition to not letting him find out, you must also try to protect his safety." Shibuya Saburo ordered.
"Yes, I understand." Lin Dakuan didn't say much, but Shibuya Saburo wasn't curious about this at all?
…
Wenchang Bridge, Su Zhai.
The old housekeeper, Su Xing, stood with his hands down. At the desk, Su Wenqing was reading a piece of information, including quite a few, as well as photos.
"Axing, is this your investigation over the past two days?"
"Yes, sir." Su Xing said, "Actually, Zhou Sen is also quite famous in Bingcheng, but you don't usually pay attention to this."
"This kid is a policeman. He has already become a lieutenant at a young age. If there is no backstage, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do it." Su Wenqing said calmly. He didn't look down on a mere young policeman. , unless the other party is Japanese.
"You are right. Zhou Sen's backstage is his Belarusian adoptive father, Anthony Robin. This man is considered a low-key rich man in Bingcheng. He has a certain influence in the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce, and he actually said that he has a relationship with the Japanese. The relationship with him is also very good, but he seems to be away from Bingcheng recently. It is said that he went to Fengtian or Guan Nei to discuss business."
"What is Zhou Sen's reputation?" Su Wenqing asked.
"I don't have a good reputation as a swinger, but I haven't heard of any bad things. He is young and frivolous, greedy for beauty, and often goes to some romantic places." Su Xing said this, which is basically equivalent to Zhou Zhou. Sen was hammered to death in front of Su Wenqing.
Of course he didn't want an outsider to enter the Su family. He had watched Feng Hua grow up. He was unmarried and had no descendants. He basically regarded Feng Hua as his son.
If Feng Hua becomes the son-in-law of the Su family, he will have someone to rely on in the future, but if an outsider enters the Su family and becomes the master of the family, will he still have a place?
"A swinger is not as good as Ah Hua. Xiaoyun probably doesn't like this kind of person. Don't worry about him, but don't conflict with him head-on." Su Wenqing is still a little afraid of Zhou Sen's identity as a police officer. After all, He passed on an official uniform, representing the government, not to mention having a White Russian adoptive father.
"Yes, Master, I will remind Master Hua." Su Xing nodded.
"Is there anything else?"
"The news we heard from inside the Ningxiang Pavilion is that Boss Bai suddenly closed down the Ningxiang Pavilion. On the one hand, it is to reduce expenses. On the other hand, it is very likely that she has found a way out. She is very cautious now, except for a person named Ah next to her. A sweet little girl, no one knows what she is thinking. By the way, sir, there is one more thing, this Zhou Sen, he and Bai Yulan seem to know each other," Su Xing said.
"Oh, what's their relationship?" Su Wenqing's eyes flashed sharply, completely different from his previous attitude.
Bai Yulan has long been regarded as a forbidden love by him, and any man who appears next to her deserves his vigilance and attention.
"It probably doesn't matter. A person as noble as Boss Bai will definitely look down on such a prodigal," Su Xing said.
Su Wenqing's expression softened: "Where's Ah Hua, why haven't you seen him today?"
"Master Hua has been accompanying the eldest daughter today. The eldest daughter is studying in Peking and has not been back for a long time. Bingcheng has changed a lot. With Master Hua by his side, the wallet will not be lost again." Su Xing explained. .
"Well, when Xiaoyun goes out from now on, he must send someone to follow him. Bingcheng is not peaceful recently." Su Wenqing ordered.
"I know, don't worry, sir." Su Xing knew what Su Wenqing was referring to, but there were some things he couldn't say clearly.
There have always been rumors that the Japanese dispatched military police to secretly arrest "Malu Da" at night, and it is not groundless that many beggars on the streets suddenly disappeared overnight.
When beggars are caught, they have no relatives, so they will naturally not report the crime. However, such things are kept secret. Now that the Japanese are the "rulers" in Ice City, who feels the need to openly question them?
It would be dangerous for a beautiful girl like Su Yun to go out alone during the day. Su Wenqing was not without enemies in Ice City.
"Is there any movement over Qin Laoqi's side?"
"Hey, there is..." Su Xing replied with a stern look on his face.
"Axing, what's wrong with you today? I always hesitate when asking you questions. Wasn't this the case before?" Su Wenqing frowned dissatisfied and asked.
"Master, it has something to do with Zhou Sen. One of his subordinates was detained in the Taipingqiao Gambling House by the second son of the Qin family. The second son of Qin asked Zhou Sen to use money to redeem him. This time, Zhou Sen really used money to redeem him. He took a man and ransomed him."
"When did it happen?"
"Just the day before yesterday."
"This kid Qing Lang is so messed up that he doesn't even give face to his father and eldest brother. How could Zhou Sen be let go so easily?" Su Wenqing said.
"This is not clear yet. It stands to reason that the two of them do not have a deep friendship. They only know each other on the ground of Ice City. However, Zhou Sen has a rich adoptive father this time. If the money is enough, Qing Lang will let him go. It's not impossible for people." Su Xing analyzed.
"Why did this Zhou Sen appear suddenly? Ah Xing, please send someone to keep an eye on this Zhou Sen. I want to know every move he makes." Su Wenqing said.
"good."
…
In Taipingqiao Gambling House, the Second Young Master of Qin was lying on the sofa, drinking fine wine and smoking cigars. The gambling house made a lot of money every day, but most of the profits had to be turned over.
Among them, the Japanese will definitely take the lead, as well as the former Bingcheng Police Department Director Lao Jin. Now Lao Jin has become the capital police chief.
This is Qin Laoqi's biggest backer. Lao Jin holds a major stake in Taipingqiao Gambling House.
There are also large and small joints. In the end, only 30% will be in the hands of the Qin family, and this 30% will have to pay for various expenses.
Even so, the benefits that this gambling house brought to the Qin family were beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Without such income, how could it support the extravagant life of the Second Young Master Qin?
"Second Young Master, I heard that the policeman named Zhou Sen asked a small gang called Shuangqinghui to help him find a man named Xiaohei."
"Xiao Hei, is that the guy who brought Ye San'er to our gambling house?" Qin Lang sat up and asked.
"Yes, this kid is hiding. He probably knows that he is in trouble and doesn't dare to show his face." said the subordinate.
"Can we find it?"
"Second Young Master, what do you want to do?" The subordinate was a little surprised.
"Come here." Qin Lang waved and motioned for his men to bend over, "If you do this, after you find this little black guy, reveal the news to the people at Shuangqinghui."
"clear."
…
The atmosphere in the private room of the shabu-shabu restaurant is lively.
"Xiao Hu, eat quickly, eat quickly. If you are slow, Wu Endu will take all the meat away..." Gu Laoliu called to the newcomer Hu Hao.
"Thank you, Brother Six. I've eaten a lot." Hu Hao said shyly.
"Yao Yuling, we grown men eat more casually. As for you, don't worry about us. Just order whatever you want. Although we may not be in the same group in the future, we have at least three months of fate. I will patrol on our behalf. The team welcomes two newcomers, come on, one of us!" Zhou Sen said, holding up his wine glass.
"Thank you, boss, brother!"
"Ye San'er, drink less. The injury is not healed yet." Zhou Sen reminded Ye San'er that this guy's injury is not healed. If you drink, the injury will heal slowly.
"It's okay, brother, these are just skin injuries." Ye San'er said nonchalantly.
"Brother Ye, have you found the little black guy who harmed you?" Hu Hao suddenly said, and the dinner table suddenly became cold.
"This kid is good at hiding. I searched all the places where he used to go, but couldn't find him. Forget it, as long as this kid is still in Ice City, he can't escape. Sooner or later, we will find this kid out and ask him why. You want to harm me!" Ye Saner gritted his teeth with hatred.
"Don't worry, this guy can't escape." Gu Laoliu said.
"Lao Liu, please send Yao Yuling off later. San'er, please take care of Xiao Hu and send him home." Zhou Sen ordered.
"Don't worry, boss."
