Zhou Sen really didn't expect that "Jiang Xiao" would actually be Zheng Nan, the owner of "Old Fengtian Tailor Shop", the "Brother Nan" in Hong Lianghui's mouth.
But did Jiang Xiao go by himself, or did he ask this "Brother Nan" to go for him?
This is unknown.
You know, he has never met the other person, and the only person who knows "Jiang Xiao" may be Bai Yulan himself.
But if Bai Yulan really knows the other party's exact identity, she shouldn't hide it from herself.
"Ale, don't tell anyone about this yet, especially your sister Yulan." Zhou Sen ordered.
"I know, my uncle is doing this to protect the young lady." A Le nodded. He is actually very smart and knows many things, but he never talks about it.
"Okay, you go and rest."
"Uncle, the sweet potatoes are burnt..."
"Oops." Only then did Zhou Sen smell a burnt smell coming from the stove. He quickly took a pair of tongs and pulled out the burnt sweet potatoes.
Fortunately, it was only burnt on the outside. After breaking it open, the inside was still edible.
"Would you like one?"
"No, I'm very full from dinner. I'm almost done eating now and can go back to sleep." A Le waved his hand quickly.
"I only have two, and I'll give you one. What can I eat?" Zhou Sen looked at A Le's back as he closed the door and left, and grumbled in his heart.
After eating two sweet potatoes, my hunger disappeared immediately. I couldn't eat too much because I wouldn't be able to sleep for a while.
"Why do you have such a bad mouth?" Back in the small building, Bai Yulan was not asleep yet. She was lying on her side on the bed, reading a book boredly, probably waiting for him.
"Ah, maybe it's from the roasted sweet potato I just ate." Zhou Sen smiled, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger.
"Houde Building also sells roasted sweet potatoes?"
"Houdelou didn't sell it. I didn't have enough to eat, so I baked it in my kitchen when I came back." Zhou Sen chuckled.
"You said you were going to Houde Building to eat, but Axiang didn't leave any food for you. Why, the food is not delicious?" Bai Yulan closed the book and said.
"The food is not bad, but I can't eat it," Zhou Sen said.
"What's wrong, Lin Dakuan is making things difficult for you?"
"It's not that difficult, but things are a little complicated. He probably has a headache now," Zhou Sen said.
"I'm still worried that something will happen at Bingcheng Station." Bai Yulan said while holding her forehead.
"Something did happen at Bingcheng Station. I guess it's not a big deal this time." Zhou Sen took off his clothes and lay down next to Bai Yulan.
"Is there really a traitor?"
"I am still guessing now, but there are various signs that someone at Bingcheng Station revealed the news of Jin Ronggui's assassination to the Japanese. The Japanese made preparations in advance and asked Jin Ronggui to come to Bingcheng quietly on the first day and come back early the next morning. A play was arranged for us to watch at the train station, which was really painstaking."
"So, if we just get the exact information, we can just arrange to arrive in advance and set up an ambush on the train. There is no need to arrange for Jin Ronggui to go to the train station again. Isn't this unnecessary?"
"As you can see, the Japanese are protecting the traitor in Bingcheng Station."
"Protect?"
"No, we provided the intelligence. The Japanese should be protecting a 'traitor' like me." Bai Yulan thought for a moment and said.
Zhou Sen was a little surprised. His daughter-in-law was still very perceptive. She didn't stay pregnant for three years, and she immediately understood the essence of the matter.
"This drama played by the Japanese is actually full of loopholes. If you want to find it, you can still find it. On the surface, it is to protect you, the 'traitor,' but in fact it is to provoke an internal fight between the skate team and the Bingcheng Station." Zhou Sen said.
"But how do the Japanese know what's going on inside us?"
"The problem is not on our side, so who else can it be on?" Zhou Sen curled his lips and said.
"Jiang Xiao rebelled?"
"That's not the case for Jiang Xiao. If he rebelled, Bingcheng Station would have completely changed his gender. But the higher-ups there had second thoughts. In other words, he was caught by the Japanese, surrendered under coercion, and became a traitor. This It is not impossible, this person should have access to the core secrets of Bingcheng Station, and even the top management of Bingcheng Station." Zhou Sen analyzed.
"Shouldn't that be the first time to remind Jiang Xiao?"
"Is the reminder useful? Will he believe you? Or, if this person's purpose is more sinister, it is the assassination plan drawn up by this traitor, and the target is aimed at you?" Zhou Sen asked in return.
"Going at me, I never interfere in the affairs of Bingcheng Station, why is he going at me?"
"What if this person wants to take over Bingcheng Station and annex your skate team?"
"How is this possible? The members of the skate team are basically left by Lao Ma. Unless I betrayed Lao Ma and became a traitor, then..." Bai Yulan couldn't continue. She herself felt that this seemed to be true. It's possible.
"The most frightening thing is that he secretly colluded with the Japanese, or surrendered directly to the Japanese, and the military commander's power in Bingcheng was wiped out by him. At that time, as long as he is in office, the military commander's Bingcheng station will become It’s a tool for the Japanese to spy on Chongqing’s intelligence.”
"If it's true as you said, then this person's intentions are too sinister and he should be cut into pieces." Bai Yulan said bitterly.
"So, no matter what information they give you, don't reply now. As long as you don't reply, they won't be able to determine that you are a 'traitor'." Zhou Sen said.
"If I don't reply, won't I be found guilty of being a 'traitor'?" Bai Yulan asked in confusion.
"The charge of 'traitor' is not something they can frame you just because they want to. You also have channels to contact Chongqing. They can't stop you, and don't try to defend yourself. Once they first accept that you are a 'traitor' It is presumed that they will no longer believe anything you say. This is human psychology. You have to write a report on the causes and consequences of the assassination of Jin Ronggui and send it directly to Chongqing." Zhou Sen said.
"But what if they start?"
"Then it depends on who the Chongqing side trusts. If the Chongqing side trusts them, then there is no need to have anything to do with them. They can't help us now anyway. If they don't trust anyone, or send people over to actually If there is an investigation, then wait for the results of the investigation to come out. If Chongqing believes in you, then it is worth continuing," Zhou Sen said.
"But what should I do if Chongqing believes what Bingcheng Station said?"
"Without the status of military commander, we will not resist Japan?" Zhou Sen asked, "Having the status will not help us, but without the status, it will not necessarily become more difficult, right?"
If that doesn't work, let's fight against the real anti-Japanese people.
Of course, he can't say this yet. It depends on what Boss Dai in Chongqing chooses. If he helps, Bai Yulan can completely get rid of his status as a military commander. This is a great thing for him.
Bai Yulan's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, obviously she was still a little worried and uneasy inside.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Zhou Sen reached over and hugged his waist, which had almost recovered. "Go to sleep. If you don't get enough rest, how will you take care of your child?"
Under Zhou Sen's comfort, Bai Yulan also lay down and subconsciously leaned into Zhou Sen's arms. It felt good to have a man's shoulder for her to lean on.
…
Two days have passed since Akiyama Nosuke's three-day investigation period, and Lin Dakuan has no clue at all about the progress of the investigation into the case.
There is only one day left, and this cannot be broken no matter what. The assassins are dead, so how can we find the person behind it?
There is no confession, just relying on the traces left at the scene, even if you write a report, you can't break it.
But now, it is obvious that there is a secret behind this assassination, so asking him to investigate like this is not embarrassing!
He has to figure out Akiyama Nosuke's purpose. Is the three-day break time just a talk or is he serious? If this is true, he will not be afraid of exposing it. If it is just a gesture, then he will See through it without telling it, anyway, just investigate slowly.
As for the person involved in the case, Jin Ronggui, Lin Dakuan felt that he should know the inside story, otherwise he would not cooperate with the Japanese acting.
Lin Dakuan decided to go to Qin's house to find out.
Finding the parties concerned to understand the situation is also a normal approach in investigating and handling cases.
The Jin family has a house in Bingcheng, but no one lives in the old house. This time they returned due to unexpected events.
So Jin Ronggui came back this time and lived directly in the Qin family.
Firstly, the Qin family has a place to live, and secondly, it is convenient for someone to take care of them, and they can live with their daughter and son-in-law.
"Young Master Qin, my condolences." Lin Dakuan and Qin Laoqi had no friendship, and they were neither relatives nor friends, so it was naturally impossible for him to take the initiative to express his condolences.
But in order to see Jin Ronggui, since he came, he still had to offer a stick of incense to the deceased. After all, the deceased was the most important.
"Director Lin, thank you." Qin Xiong thanked him with a filial piety.
"Firstly, I came to offer incense to Mr. Qin Qi. Secondly, I wanted to see the old director of the department. I also asked the young master to come for your convenience." Lin Dakuan explained the purpose of his visit.
"Jia Yue was assassinated on the way here. He was a little frightened and a little sick. I'm afraid he will disappoint Director Lin." Qin Xiong declined.
】
"I understand, I understand, then I won't force you. Mr. Qin, please take your leave." Lin Dakuan said no more, directly cupped his hands and left.
Qin Xiong looked at Lin Dakuan's leaving figure, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He knew the relationship between Lin Dakuan and Zhou Sen.
After his father passed away, he had been coming to see him. Now that his father-in-law was here, he came over to please him. How could such a good thing happen in the world?
If you want to see Jin Ronggui, let’s go through him first.
"Brother, what's going on?" Zou Shuxun was smoking outside. When he saw Lin Dakuan coming out not long after he entered, he quickly stepped forward and asked.
"Let's go, the old director won't see me."
"No, why, brother, have you ever offended him?" Zou Shuxun asked in confusion.
"I don't know either. It's impossible to get some information out of the old director's mouth." Lin Dakuan sighed, "Let's look for clues from the two dead rushers."
"This person is dead and can't speak. What clues can there be? Three days have passed before my eyes. If it doesn't work, let's tell Section Chief Akiyama clearly..."
"What do you know? You can't say anything until you have no choice." Lin Dakuan waved his hand, "Let's go back to Shaotang to discuss it again."
…
Shuidao Street, inside the "Old Fengtian Tailor Shop".
"Old cat, what do you mean? The facts are already obvious. The skate team and that woman have betrayed the party and the country and defected to the Japanese. It was she who provided false information that led to the sacrifice of two of our brothers. You still Is there anything worth doubting?" Ma Rongda asked the old cat Zheng Nan with an angry look.
"You said the information provided by the skate team was false. Where is the evidence?"
"Fang Zhiping saw it with his own eyes at the train station and did not see Jin Ronggui in the carriage at all." Ma Rongda said.
"But at the train station that day, both the Japanese and Manchukuo officials were there. Jin Ronggui did get off that train." Zheng Nan retorted, "There are not only reports in this newspaper, but also photos. This cannot be faked. Bar?"
"What I'm saying is that Jin Ronggui is not in the VIP box. This information is wrong. The VIP box is a trap!"
"Trap, did the Japanese know in advance that we were going to assassinate them, so they set a trap?" Zheng Nan was sent to Bingcheng as the station chief, and he was not stupid.
"That's why I said that the woman betrayed us and betrayed this operation!" Ma Rongda defended, "Otherwise, how did the Japanese know that we would assassinate Jin Ronggui and had we made arrangements in advance?"
"Intelligence will be wrong, not to mention it is very rare to find out Jin Ronggui's itinerary in such a short period of time. As for what will happen on the car, the Japanese have taken precautions in advance. This may be an accident. If the intelligence is wrong, you cannot tell the skateboard team Being a traitor is equivalent to being a traitor. Have you ever thought about what would happen if we made such an arbitrary judgment?" Zheng Nan scolded. He was the station manager of Bingcheng Station. Before he was removed by the superiors, Ma Rongda was still his subordinates.
"As long as she is relieved of her position as the leader of the skate team, we can take charge of the skate team, so that the Juntong Bingcheng Station can live up to its name."
"I think you want to be the leader of the skate team." Old cat Zheng Nan saw that Ma Rongda's goal was to be the leader of the skate team.
"I just get back what belongs to me." Mayongda said.
"Is that your thing? It belongs to the party-state." Old Mao corrected sternly.
"Yes, it belongs to the party-state, but this position originally belonged to me. It was that woman who deceived my adoptive father and defrauded me of this position." Ma Rongda said with resentment as the muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched.
"You left because you refused to accept the arrangements of your adoptive father Ma Wenhan. Are you doing this now for your own selfishness?"
"Stationmaster, two of our brothers died. Either you or I will bear this responsibility, or she will. Do you want us to be held accountable?"
"But you can't just blame others." Old cat Zheng Nan said.
"Isn't this responsibility theirs?"
"I think we should report the matter to Chongqing and let Boss Dai make the decision." Old cat Zheng Nan took a deep breath and said.
"Okay, let's do it like this." Ma Rongda nodded. Without Lao Mao nodding, if he reported without permission, he would probably not be convincing.
