Chapter 1394 Zhang Fan's Intuition
Chapter 1394 Qianfan's Intuition
After hearing Zhang Lu's words, Li Cuiqun's first reaction was:
Leak!
He was discussing how to successfully escort the Qingdao Conference, and Wang Tiemu, who was imprisoned over there, actually shouted that he could help!
If this isn’t a leak, what is?
There must be someone inside No. 76 who secretly informed Wang Tiemu!
Li Cuiqun's face darkened.
He secretly wondered who the person might be who tipped off Wang Tiemu.
Soon, Li Cuiqun had a rough scope of suspicion in his mind. It was nothing more than the personnel of the former Military Control Commission's Shanghai District. After all, Wang Tiemu was once the director of the Military Control Commission's Shanghai District and a famous "veteran" in the Military Control Commission. He would have some followers.
Moreover, this person actually knew that they were going to Qingdao, which made Li Cuiqun pay more attention. So far, only his more trusted confidants knew that they were going to Qingdao.
This is betrayal!
Li Cuiqun felt secretly resentful.
His eyes first swept over the people present at the meeting, and then he thought about those who might know the truth.
Being stared at by Li Cuiqun's gloomy eyes, Zhang Lu was a little frightened, "Sir, then I will go tell Wang Tiemu that I won't see him."
"Forget it." Li Cuiqun snorted coldly, "I want to see what he can say."
……
Wang Tiemu was very anxious.
Previously, because He Xingjian and Chen Mingchu were assassinated, Wang Tiemu, who escaped with his life, was suspected of treason and was thrown into jail by Li Cuiqun.
He had previously hoped to connect with the Japanese through Cheng Qianfan and pin his hopes of escaping the crime on the Japanese.
However, although he had previously laid out the bait, saying that he knew important secrets of the Military Control Commission in the hope of escaping the crime, Wang Tiemu had his own plans and only gave out a few small fish and shrimps from the Military Control Commission's Shanghai branch. The Japanese were not satisfied and did not take any further action to release him.
This made Wang Tiemu anxious.
His previous plan was to use some small fish and shrimp to prove his innocence. After being "reinstated", the more important personnel and secrets of the Military Control Commission in his mind would be his greatest wealth and he could use them at any time.
Now, after being detained for more than half a month, Wang Tiemu became more and more eager to escape. Most importantly, one of his subordinates secretly told him that Li Cuiqun was determined to kill him. Wang Tiemu knew that he could not think too much and had to save his life.
Now, he learned that Li Cuiqun was preparing for the defense of Qingdao, and he knew that his chance had come.
Dingmotun lost momentum, in part, because it was not properly defended during the "Big Three" meeting in Nanjing.
It is obvious that Li Cuiqun cannot afford to make any mistakes in this Qingdao meeting. Only if this can help Li Cuiqun at this time will there be a chance that Li Cuiqun will show mercy to his subordinates.
However, Zhang Lu had been gone for a while, but Li Cuiqun did not come, which made Wang Tiemu even more anxious.
For such an important matter, Li Cuiqun did not rush to see him. This made Wang Tiemu firmly believe that Li Cuiqun was determined to kill him, which made him even more afraid.
Wang Tiemu banged on the iron bars and shouted that he wanted to see Li Cuiqun.
"Sir?" Zhang Lu glanced at Li Cuiqun and asked.
"Wait a little longer." Li Cuiqun shook his head.
After more than ten minutes, Wang Tiemu's voice was almost hoarse, so Li Cuiqun chuckled and said, "Let's go."
……
"Wang Tiemu, if you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have to fart, fart quickly! I'm busy!" Li Cuiqun glanced at Wang Tiemu, looking reluctant to see him, and said impatiently.
It was this attitude that made Wang Tiemu even more afraid.
He endured Li Cuiqun's scolding and said humbly: "Mr. Li, I know the station chief of Qingdao Station, Ke Zhijiang, very well. Mr. Wang will hold a meeting in Qingdao, and Ke Zhijiang will definitely take action. I can help you deal with him."
"Ke Zhijiang." Li Cuiqun frowned, "Tell me about Qingdao Station, tell me about this person."
Wang Tiemu reported to Li Cuiqun honestly and carefully what he knew about Ke Zhijiang.
Ke Zhijiang, the stationmaster of Qingdao Station, is less than 30 years old. He graduated from the special training class of Xiongzhen Building in Hangzhou. After graduating from Xiongzhen Building, he was deeply loved by Dai Chunfeng because of his outstanding performance. He can be said to be Dai Chunfeng's favorite student.
"This guy is handsome and he claims to be a romantic and suave man." Wang Tiemu said, "He usually waves a folding fan and walks leisurely with his hands behind his back, and he regards himself as a handsome gentleman."
"For such a person to be liked by Dai Chunfeng, he must have some outstanding qualities," said Li Cuiqun.
"Mr. Li, you are right." Wang Tiemu flattered him in an unskilled way, saying, "Although Ke Zhijiang likes to show off, he is a very smart man. Most importantly, he has extraordinary kung fu, especially his light body kung fu, which allows him to jump over roofs and rooftops as if he were walking on flat ground."
"Qingdao Station frequently took action to punish traitors and Japanese, and Ke Zhijiang made great contributions." Wang Tiemu said.
Li Cuiqun looked at Wang Tiemu deeply.
Wang Tiemu was shocked, realizing that the word "traitor" he had said had displeased Li Cuiqun.
He quickly said, "As long as I go to Qingdao, I will definitely find a way to dig Ke Zhijiang out."
Li Cuiqun was secretly delighted, but didn't show it on his face: "How can I trust you when you have no evidence?"
Wang Tiemu patted his chest and said, "I'm giving you a military order. If I don't crack the Qingdao station, you will shoot me in Qingdao!"
Li Cuiqun looked at Wang Tiemu, and Wang Tiemu also looked at him eagerly.
Just when Wang Tiemu was feeling a little discouraged, he saw Li Cuiqun nodding with a smile, "Okay."
"There are some doubts about the Zhaofeng General Association case," Li Cuiqun said. "After the Qingdao trip is completed, I will personally examine the case and make a public judgment on the right and wrong."
"Thank you, Mr. Li." Wang Tiemu said.
He naturally understood the implicit meaning of Li Cuiqun's words and knew that he could let him go. However, everything depended on whether the trip to Qingdao was successful and whether he, Wang Tiemu, could successfully eliminate the Military Control Commission's Qingdao Station in one fell swoop.
After meeting Wang Tiemu, Li Cuiqun went straight to Liusan Garden to pay a visit to Wang Tianhai, saying that he already had a foolproof plan to "protect Mr. Wang thoroughly" and would definitely catch all the Chongqing Military Control Commission elements who posed a threat to the Qingdao Conference in one fell swoop, so as to restore peace to Qingdao.
Wang Tianhai was overjoyed when he heard this, and told Li Cuiqun to do his job well.
……
"That's improvement compared to last time." Cheng Qianfan put down his chopsticks and said to Zhang Ping.
"Tell me what needs to be improved?" Zhang Ping asked, holding a notebook in her hand for notes.
“The taste is a bit salty, and the fried sugar color is a bit lacking.” Cheng Qianfan commented.
Zhang Ping called the police station and told him that she had prepared some of her signature side dishes and invited him to come over and taste them.
When Aunt Zhang invited him, Mr. Cheng naturally accepted the invitation with pleasure.
Since it is said to be a specialty appetizer, it must be really good, or at least barely good enough.
Although Zhang Ping has no talent in cooking, she is still working hard to improve.
"Miss Kuang went back at noon." Zhang Ping said.
Cheng Qianfan thought about it and realized that Zhao Shuli was indeed not in the police station this morning.
"But is there something wrong?" he asked.
"Li Cuiqun is not at Jessfield Road," Zhang Ping said. "Comrade Abacus said he suspected Li Cuiqun had secretly left Shanghai with others."
"Do you know where to go?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately.
"I don't know." Zhang Ping shook her head. "Comrade Abacus said that he could only confirm that some people were missing from No. 76. He judged that these people must have been secretly taken away by Li Cuiqun."
Cheng Qianfan closed his eyes and thought.
Zhang Ping came behind him and massaged his head with her slender hands.
Li Cuiqun should have secretly left Shanghai with his men. Comrade Abacus's speculation should be correct.
As for the reason why Li Cuiqun left Shanghai, it is not difficult to guess that the Special Agent Headquarters should continue to be responsible for Wang Tianhai's security during the "Big Three" talks.
The last time the 'Big Three' meeting was held in Nanjing, Dingmutun was in charge of security.
Now, Dingmutun has lost its power in Jisifeilu, so the responsibility of Wang Tianhai's security falls on Li Cuiqun.
Now, the key question is where did Li Cuiqun go?
Peking?
Tianjin?
Or was it Qingdao, which they had previously agreed was the most likely choice?
Immediately, Cheng Qianfan thought that since Li Cuiqun had already set off secretly, then Wang Tianhai should be leaving Shanghai soon.
Having learned from the previous experience of being caught off guard during the trip to Nanjing, and even having to communicate with Lao Huang and Ruolan through code words, Cheng Qianfan knew that he had to be prepared in advance this time.
……
Lafayette Road.
Chengfu.
"Today's dish is good." Cheng Qianfan wiped the corner of his mouth with a towel, pointed at a dish and praised Zhou Ru.
"Su Dongpo once praised, 'Pink stonehead still has no bones, snow-white puffer fish is not harmful to people.'" Bai Ruolan was also happy with the meal and praised, "I dare not eat puffer fish, so I'll eat this catfish."
Zhou Ru cooked several dishes for dinner, among which the spring bamboo shoots and catfish balls were the most delicious.
(The author bought used books and did his homework. I am a professional.)
"My wife is a talented woman who is eloquent." Cheng Qianfan said jokingly.
"You're such a smooth talker." Bai Ruolan glared at her husband.
"Haozi, come with me to the study and lie down for a while." Cheng Qianfan said to Haozi, who was having dinner with him at home tonight.
"Yes!"
After Cheng Qianfan left, the little cook was so happy to hear her husband and wife praising her that she smiled up. At this time, she said to her wife, "Catfish meat is thick and has few bones. It has a plump texture and is very good for the skin."
When talking about skin care, Bai Ruolan became interested and started chatting with Zhou Ru enthusiastically. Xiao Lizi, who was serving on the side, also became interested and listened attentively.
……
In the study.
Cheng Qianfan sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Haozi stood aside, not daring to disturb Brother Fan's thoughts.
Cheng Qianfan opened his eyes and glanced at the cigarette box on the table. Haozi quickly took it, took out a cigarette and handed it to Brother Fan, then took out a lighter to help him light the cigarette.
After taking two puffs of the cigarette and gently exhaling the smoke through his nose, Cheng Qianfan tilted his head and gently pressed his temple with his little finger.
"Li Cuiqun has already taken his people out of Shanghai. He must have gone to arrange security for the 'Big Three' talks in advance." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Brother Fan, are you leaving Shanghai soon?" Li Hao asked.
"I estimate it will be in these two days." Cheng Qianfan nodded.
He looked at Li Hao and said thoughtfully, "Regarding the location of this so-called 'Big Three' meeting, it is very likely to take place between Peking, Tianjin and Qingdao."
"Of course, it could be in other cities, but these three cities are the most likely," Cheng Qianfan continued, "and Qingdao is the most likely."
Li Hao listened quietly.
"With the previous experience of our people assassinating Wang Tianhai in Nanjing, the Wang Puppet regime will definitely be more vigilant this time." Cheng Qianfan said, "So, I have to be more careful this time."
"I will try to avoid contacting my family unless it is absolutely necessary."
"Yes."
"It still won't work." Cheng Qianfan shook his head. He thought for a while and said, "If I call home and say I'm going out on business, then it means that the Big Three meeting is not held in Qingdao. As for where it will be held, you must remember every word I said on the phone at that time. The answer lies in the words."
"clear."
"If I didn't make this call, it means that the enemy's meeting place is in Qingdao, so I don't need to make a call." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Ah."
"Repeat what I just said according to your understanding." Cheng Qianfan said in a serious voice.
"If it was Qingdao, there wouldn't be a call." Li Hao thought for a moment and chose his words carefully. "If there was a call, it means it wasn't Qingdao. Remember every word Brother Fan said. The answer is in his words."
Cheng Qianfan nodded.
"Once the location is confirmed, let Taozi lead a team to meet me urgently." Cheng Qianfan said.
"How do they contact you, Brother Fan?" Haozi asked.
"Have Taozi publish a missing person advertisement in the largest local traitor newspaper." Cheng Qianfan said, "The content of the advertisement is to find the fourth cousin from Jimo."
"Jimo?" Li Hao asked, puzzled.
"It's a place name, Ji (ji) for instant, and Mo (mo) for writing ink." Cheng Qianfan said.
"The biggest traitor bought a missing person advertisement in the newspaper, looking for my fourth cousin from Jimo." Li Hao said, "Brother Fan, do you need to explain Taozi in more detail?"
"No need." Cheng Qianfan shook his head. "Taozi is very smart. He knows what to do."
"Yes."
"Also, while Taozi and I are not in Shanghai, you and Haozi will be in charge of the Special Affairs Department." Cheng Qianfan said, "Unless there is danger and an emergency response is required, otherwise, when I'm not here, the Special Affairs Department should prioritize stability and try not to take any action."
He looked at Haozi and said, "In short, stay calm and put safety first."
"Stability is the priority, safety comes first." Haozi nodded. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Fan, why did you only tell me? You haven't left Shanghai yet, so you can call Haozi, Taozi and others to a meeting and give orders."
"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, his expression somewhat serious, "Something big is about to happen, it's better to be careful."
He had a hunch that Wang Tianhai, who had experienced several assassination attempts, was like a frightened bird at this moment and would pay special attention to safety. It was hard to say how vigilant the enemy would be this time and to what extent the security measures and investigation efforts would be taken.
This intuition has saved his life many times, and he believes in this intuition so much that it can even be described as superstition.
