Wenchang Bridge·Su House.
In the study on the second floor, Su Wenqing was waiting for news. Although killing a lot of people was not a big deal to him.
But this time the person killed was a police officer.
The police are somewhat different from ordinary people. If they do it cleanly, there will be no big problem, but if they leave the beginning and the end behind, they will have to pay a certain price.
However, he is not worried. Based on his relationship with Kato, the commander of the Japanese military police stationed in Ice City, a small policeman is not worth mentioning.
"master?"
"Is there any news about the fourth child?"
"No, but I heard that there was a burst of gunshots in Butou District this morning, right over the city park." Su Xing reported.
"Gunshot, did you let Lao Si and the others use guns?" Su Wenqing was surprised.
"No, I specially reminded the fourth child not to use a gun. The sound of a gun will definitely alert the police and gendarmerie, and there will be no way to deal with it." Su Xing shook his head.
"That might be a coincidence. As soon as there is news from the Fourth Brother, you can arrange for him to hide in the countryside for a while, and tell the public that he has gone back to his hometown to visit relatives." Su Wenqing quickly ordered.
"Don't worry, sir. I have already made arrangements. After everything is over, give me a message and the fourth child and the others will leave Bingcheng directly and live in the countryside for a month. When the news has passed, I will notify them to come back." Su Xing said.
"That's good, Axing, you should handle things steadily and carefully." Su Wenqing nodded.
…
After Zhou Sen and others left, a Japanese military police force with live ammunition came over and surrounded the entire city park, conducting a search like a net.
Captain Zhongtou, captain of the gendarmerie port detachment, led a large wolfdog and rushed in the direction of Xiaonanyuan. The gun came from this direction.
And according to people nearby, there was a sound first, followed by a burst of intensive gunfire, which lasted only a minute or two.
Then there was none.
There are obvious footprints on the ground and the ruts of the carriage. Could it be that some gang arranged a fight here so early in the morning?
Otherwise, what are you doing here in such a cold weather? Are you going for an outing? It’s all covered with thick snow and ice. What’s there to see?
It's better to go skating on the Songhua River, that's much more fun than here.
The big wolfdog arrived at the place where Zhou Sen and others were just now, broke free from the rope in the hands of Captain Zhongtou, and started barking wildly.
Obviously, this is the scene of the crime.
The lieutenant Zhongtou waved his hand and ordered his soldiers to start searching immediately.
Ten minutes passed, and apart from the messy footprints on the ground, nothing else was found.
There are also bullet casings on the ground. The bullet casings are very common and basically have no value.
"Sir, there is something discovered over there." A Japanese military police officer ran over and gave the captain a military salute.
"Take me there." The lieutenant ordered sternly.
…
On such a cold day, it is very comfortable to sit in the office, warm up by the fire, and drink hot tea.
But after the Japanese gave an order, Lin Dakuan had to put on a thick coat, take the operation captain Zou Shuxun and the translator Wu Shuqing, and head towards the Special City Park in Buantou District.
Shibuya Saburo didn't say anything on the phone, he just asked him to take the case from the military police.
It was also said that this had been approved by Gendarmerie Commander Kato.
God knows what's going on here. The relationship between Shibuya and Kato is not good. Kato does not buy Shibuya's favor, but Shibuya has the support of General Qin Yanasaburo, the head of the Ice City Secret Service. Qin Yanasaburo also serves as the commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army. The Chief of the Second Section of the General Staff Department (in charge of intelligence) is the largest intelligence leader in Manchuria and even Baekje.
Anyway, this job is not easy to do. If you do it well, give it a verbal praise. If you don’t do it well, then it’s a problem with your ability.
Lin Dakuan is not an idiot. If Shibuya Saburo can arrange the case himself, it is definitely not a trivial matter. If he has to snatch the case, it will be even more problematic.
He asked Zou Shuxun to bring all the police action team at home, and also asked an armed police team to accompany him.
With more people comes greater strength. This is an unbreakable truth.
By the time Lin Da's broadband team arrived, Captain Zhongtou had been investigating the scene for more than half an hour, but there were very few clues at the scene.
Captain Zhongtou didn't find any useful clues, except that one party hid in the snowdrift and ambushed the other party.
In addition, an ambush was found in the woods a hundred meters away. I don't know what this man was doing.
Everything is like a mystery.
He was worried about how he would report this case to his superiors when he got back. Two groups of people got into a fight in Xiaonanyuan in the cold weather. They had enough to eat and had nothing to do. Afterwards, they all left, except for some bullet casings. No one had it, and there was nothing at the scene except footprints.
Judging from the footprints at the scene, the number of people was quite large, but from the analysis of scattered shell casings, there were not many guns, and they were all Mauser pistols. This type of gun has poor accuracy and is widely owned by the private sector. It is not even too difficult to manufacture. , tracing it from the gun can be said to be meaningless.
The captain had a headache.
At this time, his subordinates reported that Lin Daguan, the investigation director of the Special Agent Section of the Bingcheng Police Department, had arrived.
The Secret Service Section had a lot of dealings with the Military Police, so Zhongtou naturally knew Lin Dakuan. He also knew that Lin Dakuan, the investigation director, was very capable and was appreciated by Saburo Shibuya, so he naturally asked his subordinates to bring Lin Dakuan and others over.
"Mr. Zhongtou." When Lin Dakuan saw Captain Zhongtou, he quickly lowered his head and bowed slightly. Although his status in the police department was relatively high, according to the corresponding police rank and military rank comparison, he was still above Zhongtou.
But in Bingcheng, and even in Manchuria as a whole, any Chinese who sees a Japanese, especially a Japanese officer, must take off his hat and bow.
Even if the opponent is just a small soldier.
The Japanese were superior in Manchuria and were the superior people. The next best people were the Manchus and those working in the government. The Han people had the lowest status and could be bullied at will.
"It's Director Lin, what brought you here?" Zhongtou said hey.
"I heard the report from the police station below, saying that gunshots were heard here and that there was a fight here, so I led a team to come and have a look." Lin Dakuan hurriedly explained that as long as this case has nothing to do with "anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese", There is no reason for the gendarmerie to intervene. Otherwise, there is no separation of powers. In the future, whatever the police department and the police stations below will do, it will be left to the gendarmerie.
"There was indeed a fight, but when I arrived with my people, they were all gone." Zhongtou didn't want to investigate such a headless case. Now it seems that someone has come to take the blame, and he is serious about it. Then he will It’s easier to report if you go.
"No more?" Lin Dakuan was not surprised. This was an urban area. Once a gun was fired, the Japanese would definitely be alerted.
If you move quickly, the Japanese can arrive within ten minutes. Of course, if you move slower, it will be difficult to say.
If these people could evacuate quickly after the gunshot was fired, they must not be just a mob, but at least they had received some training.
The park is open. Although there is an entrance, it is not the only one, and it also leads directly to the river.
If this person leaves directly from the river, he cannot catch up now even if he wants to. After crossing the river, it is the suburbs. If a small team of dozens of people goes into the forest, unless the army is dispatched to search, then there is no way to find him. Less than.
What's more, after there was no blood on the ground, there were obviously no casualties, and the identities of both parties were not clear, so the army was dispatched to search for them. What idiot commander would dare to give such an order?
In fact, this was also the case. Zhou Sen and Qin Lang walked away separately, with no obvious goal. After leaving the door, they got into Wu En's carriage parked on the main road, and no one noticed.
Even on the way to the hospital in the car, we ran into the gendarmerie that was speeding towards us.
The remaining people all left on dog sleds from the river. They were scattered in all directions. It was useless to follow the traces on the ice.
If you weren't prepared in advance, how could you dare to kidnap Guo Laosi?
"Director Lin, if you take a look, you will understand that the footprints at the scene are very messy, and there is nothing except some dropped bullet casings." Captain Zhongtou said.
Zhou Sen can ask Qin Lang and others to clean up the traces. Firstly, the gunshots were fired and there was no time. Secondly, there was no intention to cover up. There were no casualties in the first place. Even if they were found out, it would be a gang fight. That was enough. If you don't go up to the top of the line, you can go online, and the Japanese are eager for this.
The Chinese people are fighting among themselves, which plays into their own hands. It would be better if people lose their lives, so they have an excuse to suppress and blackmail.
As long as we don't catch the current situation, no one will admit it and no one will make trouble with the Japanese. This is the bottom line that everyone agrees with.
Zhou Sen could definitely use the power of the Japanese to settle this matter, but he was unwilling to do so. He also had a bottom line in some matters.
"These are ordinary Mauser pistol bullets, of little value?" Lin Dakuan squatted down and picked up a bullet casing and said.
"Yes, these people may have been scared and the situation was not right, so they ran away." Zhongtou said, "Director Lin, you are a master at investigating crimes. I will leave this to you. I will withdraw my troops and go back!"
"Ah..." Lin Dakuan was stunned and handed the case over to himself. He thought it would not be that easy today.
However, he immediately understood what Zhongtou was thinking. If he was asked to investigate this headless case, he would definitely find nothing. If he didn't know how to deal with it by then, he might as well find someone to blame.
He just happened to be here, the best person to take the blame.
…
"ah……"
"Open your mouth."
A dish, a mouthful of rice. Zhou Sen really wanted to live like this for the rest of his life, because someone was feeding him.
"I took care of you because you were injured. Don't push yourself too far." Bai Yulan removed a restless hand from her thigh and said.
Zhou Sen chuckled, and within three seconds, his hand quietly moved over again. This time he placed it on it and stopped moving.
Bai Yulan rolled her eyes at him. She also figured out Zhou Sen's temperament. He was a bit rogue, but he was still measured and would not act recklessly.
"You know Guo Laosi, right?"
"Guo Laosi, that guy who was doing dirty work under Su Wenqing came to find you. Is it him who caused your injury?" Bai Yulan's eyes turned cold. It was obvious that she had touched her bottom line. Zhou Sen was implicated by himself. Do you really think she, Bai Yulan, is easy to bully?
"No, my injury was indeed caused by someone being shot, but it was not Guo Laosi, but Guo Laosi was caught by me and Qin Lang." Zhou Sen said.
"What, you and Qin Lang captured Guo Laosi?" Bai Yulan was shocked.
"Originally, we all captured Guo Laosi and his gang alive, but suddenly a shot was fired from the woods. Fortunately, I was lucky, otherwise it would have been difficult. I didn't expect that the mantis was catching the cicada and the oriole was behind. ." Zhou Sen said.
"Since Su Wenqing sent Guo Laosi to kill you, it stands to reason that he won't send more men to replenish the guns. So this gunman hiding in the dark actually knows your plan. Is this worth pondering?" Bai Yulan said.
"You mean Qin Lang?"
"You and Qin Lang are just cooperating in terms of interests. He may not be of the same mind as you." Bai Yulan said, "But it may not be him. If his people leak the news..."
"Qin Xiong, this gunman has no one else but Qin Xiong's subordinates. I am in Ice City, and the people who want my life now are Su Wenqing, and the other is Qin Xiong who ruined his good deeds. He is Qin Lang's eldest brother, it would be too easy to place an informant next to Qin Lang." Zhou Sen did not hesitate at all.
"Qin Xiong's gunners are good at marksmanship. There is one man, Dao Scar. He used to be a welcome beam in the gang, commonly known as: Pao Tou. He was chased by his enemies and had no way out. He defected to Qin Laoqi and worked under Qin Xiong. He is also a man who does dirty work, and many people have died at his hands over the years, but he has the protection of the Qin family, and there is nothing he can do about it," Bai Yulan said.
"This guy's shooting skills are very good. If you weren't protected by the breast mirror and inner armor, your life would be in danger today." There was already a chill in Bai Yulan's words.
