Chapter 1730 The fireworks are for the whole Shanghai to see!
It rained a little last night, and the drizzling rain added a touch of spring to the Grand-France Park.
Li Zi, holding the rattle he had just bought, walked towards a man who was sitting on a bench and looking down at a picture magazine.
Hearing footsteps, Sugita Sanshiro looked up and saw a girl in maid clothes walking towards him.
"Miss Chestnut?" Sanshiro Sugita showed the cover of the magazine to the other party and asked with a smile.
"I am." Li Zi nodded, "Sir?"
Although he had seen the cover of the eleventh issue of Liangyou Pictorial and had basically confirmed the other party's identity, Li Zi still cautiously confirmed it further.
"Yes, very cautious, worthy of being an elite agent of the Empire." Sugita Sanshiro nodded slightly, "Momoka, I am Sugita Sanshiro."
"Commander Sugita." Kuriko immediately bowed.
"Don't be shy. Be careful not to be seen by someone with ulterior motives." Sugita Sanshiro said, "Let's go. We can talk while walking."
"Yes!"
……
"In reply to your question, Sir, when he came back last night, he did bring back a lot of luggage," said Li Zi, "including the large suitcase that you mentioned."
She said to Sugita Sanshiro, "I also made a special observation at the time. It took two strong men to carry the box, which means it was quite heavy."
"Where is the box?" Sugita Sanshiro asked immediately, "Has it been secretly transported out of Cheng's house?"
"No, the box is still there." Li Zi said, "My husband arranged for it to be put in the warehouse."
"Are you sure the box is still there?" asked Sanshiro Sugita, frowning.
"Yes, I confirm." Li Zi nodded, "I live on the first floor. If the box needs to be transported out, it must pass through the hall. I must know that."
"Has anyone entered the warehouse since the box was put there?" Sugita Sanshiro asked again.
"Probably not." Li Zi thought for a moment and said, "I didn't see anyone go to the warehouse."
"This is strange." Sugita Sanshiro murmured, could it be that his guess was wrong?
"Because I am a maid in the Cheng Mansion, I need to go out sometimes, so it cannot be ruled out that someone has entered when I was out." Li Zi said quickly.
"So you can't be sure if any suspicious people came in and out of the palace while you were away?" Sugita Sanshiro asked immediately, "In other words, you can't tell whether the box was taken out of the warehouse and then sent back."
"Yes, sir," said Chestnut.
……
"Bagu Yaluo!" Sugita Sanshiro's face was gloomy, "Then what's the point of you staying in Cheng Mansion?"
"It is my fault, please punish me, sir." Li Zi's heart tightened and he said quickly.
"When you go back, find out whether the suitcase has been shipped out." Sugita Sanshiro said, "Also, find a way to get into the warehouse... Forget it."
He originally wanted to order Taohuajia to sneak into the warehouse and check the suitcase, but he was worried about alerting the enemy.
In addition, from Sugita Sanshiro's own perspective, even if the person was hidden in the suitcase, he did not tend to believe that the other party would transfer the person out by secretly transporting the suitcase.
Objectively speaking, it is safest for people to hide in the Cheng Mansion.
"We now suspect that there is an anti-Japanese element hidden in the suitcase. This person has been tortured and has difficulty moving. We now have reason to suspect that this person is hiding in Cheng's house. Your task is to secretly monitor Cheng's house and investigate whether there is such a person." Sugita Sanshiro said, "Also, focus on whether there are doctors entering and leaving Cheng's house."
"I understand." Li Zi said quickly. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "Sir, based on my understanding of Mr., he should be fine."
"Bagu Yaluo!" Sugita Sanshiro glared at Taohuajia, "Your mission is to lurk and keep an eye on the Cheng Mansion. Please remember that you should not have your own subjective judgment. You only need to accept the mission and complete the work well."
"Ha Yi!" Li Zi lowered his head and said quickly, "I understand."
……
Watching Taohuajia leave, Sugita Sanshiro's expression became gloomy and uncertain.
He was also unwilling to believe that Kentaro Miyazaki had any connection with anti-Japanese elements.
It was extremely rare for an excellent agent of the empire to betray the empire. So far, the only case he knew about was the treason committed by Setouchi Kawa of the Shanghai Special High Section.
Moreover, no matter how you look at it, Kentaro Miyazaki has no reason to betray the empire.
However, Miyazaki Kentaro was linked to so many coincidental events that Sugita Sanshiro couldn't help but become suspicious of this person.
Now, there are two huge question marks in his mind.
The more he studied the murders of Hiroyuki Taniguchi and Suzuo Nagatomo, the more he felt that the truth was not what was reflected in the files.
As he told my grandson Shinta, the most direct connection between these two cases and Kentaro Miyazaki is that these two people were Kentaro Miyazaki's teachers, and among them, Hiroyuki Taniguchi was Kentaro Miyazaki's mentor.
What he couldn't understand was that if the murders of these two people were really related to Kentaro Miyazaki, then why did Kentaro Miyazaki kill his two teachers?
In addition, there is one more thing, that is, Kuang Xiaoqin’s disappearance is enough to prove that there is something wrong with this woman. So, Kuang Xiaoqin is Miyazaki Kentaro’s lover. Does this mean that Miyazaki Kentaro has fallen into the enemy’s beauty trap and has become disloyal to the empire?
……
In fact, it was the disappearance of Kuang Xiaoqin that made him suspicious of Miyazaki Kentaro.
It can be said that the disappearance of Kuang Xiaoqin was the fuse for his investigation of Miyazaki Kentaro, and the case of the recent kidnapping and disappearance of the anti-Japanese criminal Yu Lang was naturally regarded by him as a breakthrough because Miyazaki Kentaro was involved.
The previous case happened a long time ago, and some things are difficult to investigate. On the contrary, in the Yu Lang case, from the professional perspective of Sugita Sanshiro, the enemy's actions in this case can be described as hasty, which also means that timely and in-depth investigation is likely to reveal clues.
……
"Madam, Li Zi went to buy a rattle first, and then went to the Grand Park of France, where he met a man." A bodyguard reported to Bai Ruolan.
"I know." Bai Ruolan nodded slightly, "Just keep an eye on him in secret, and don't let Li Zi find out anything."
"Yes!" The bodyguard nodded and retreated.
"Madam, I'm back." Li Zi took the little Master Sesame from the madam's hand with a rattle in his hand and used the rattle to tease the little master.
"Why did you take so long?" Bai Ruolan asked casually.
"My money fell, but luckily I found it in time and went back to get it back," said Li Zi.
"You're so impatient. You're lucky to have found it back. Be more careful next time." Bai Ruolan glanced at Li Zi and said.
"Yes, ma'am, I will pay attention to it." Li Zi said quickly and obediently.
Seeing that the lie he made up was successfully used to cover up the truth, he couldn't help but feel even more proud.
……
At noon, Cheng Qianfan returned to his home on Lafede Road.
"What's wrong? You look tired." Bai Ruolan asked her husband.
"I've been busy all morning." Cheng Qianfan took the coffee his wife handed over, took a sip, and said, "I went to report to Director Ferguson in the morning, and then went back to Xuehuali Road to call everyone to a meeting and deal with some accumulated official business."
"I thought some vixen had seduced you away." Bai Ruolan glanced at her husband and said.
"Stop being suspicious." Cheng Qianfan said unhappily, "I'm so tired, give me a shoulder massage."
"Yes, Master." Bai Ruolan rolled her eyes at her husband, walked behind Cheng Qianfan, massaged his shoulders and back, and whispered, "Li Zi went to the Grand Française Park to meet a man this morning on the pretext of going out to buy a rattle."
"Don't worry about it." Cheng Qianfan tilted his head to one side and signaled his wife to press hard on her right shoulder. "The little sparrow can't flutter in the wind and waves."
The little maid Li Zi thought she was hiding well, but in fact she had already arranged several eyes to watch her.
……
Just at this moment, Li Hao came.
"Brother Fan."
"I'm going to the study. I have something to talk to Haozi about." Cheng Qianfan patted his wife's hand and said.
"Go."
"Sister-in-law." Li Hao greeted Bai Ruolan first, and then followed Brother Fan upstairs.
……
"What did you find out?" Cheng Qianfan asked Li Hao while sitting on the swivel chair.
"Half a month ago, Zhang Xiaolin held a meeting at his home. Many people from the Green Gang attended, including Hu Sishui." Li Hao said, "Hu Sishui did not leave that night and stayed at No. 212 Huagenei Road."
"Last night, Hu Sishui secretly went to No. 212 Huagene Road to meet Zhang Xiaolin. Zhang Xiaolin sent away all the servants and only accompanied him, his butler Sui Erliang." Li Hao said.
"That's right." Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly.
Hu Sishui has a background in the Green Gang and has the support of the big traitor Ji Yunqing. After Ji Yunqing was sanctioned by the Military Control Commission, Hu Sishui got together with Zhang Xiaolin again.
Since Zhang Xiaolin had a grudge against him, it was only natural for him to instigate Hu Sishui to deal with him.
……
"Brother Fan, there's something I can't understand." Li Hao said.
"Talk about it."
"Zhang Xiaolin can't do anything to Brother Fan, so why does Hu Sishui think that he has Zhang Xiaolin's support and dares to take action against Brother Fan?" Li Hao asked puzzledly.
"Yeah, how dare Hu Sishui do that!" Cheng Qianfan said with a sneer.
Not to mention his relationship with Li Cuiqun, given his status and power in Shanghai, as well as his connections with the Japanese and Wang Tianhai's regime, Hu Sishui actually dared to break off relations with them directly, which even Cheng Qianfan found puzzling.
Apart from anything else, even if Hu Sishui's immediate superior Li Cuiqun wanted to deal with him, he would have many concerns and would not dare to do so.
Cheng Qianfan thought for a moment, then he picked up the phone on the desk and shook it. "This is Cheng Qianfan, connecting to Director Li Cuiqun's office at No. 76, Jisifei Road."
The call was quickly connected.
……
"How did you find time to call me?" Li Cuiqun smiled on the other end of the phone, "You just returned to Shanghai. Not to mention your busy official duties, you have to spend more time with your sister-in-law and children."
"Senior, are you free this afternoon?" Cheng Qianfan said, "I have something to visit you about."
"If it were someone else, they would naturally not have time. But I have something to do, so I might have to squeeze out time," said Li Cuiqun.
Cheng Qianfan heard Li Cuiqun seem to say something to someone around him, and then said on the phone, "It's 3:15 in the afternoon. I have half an hour here and I'm waiting for you, my junior."
"Three quarter, good." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, "I will definitely visit you on time this afternoon."
……
No. , Jisfield Road.
After hanging up the phone, Li Cuiqun's face turned gloomy.
"Director." Cao Yu asked softly, "Is it Mr. Cheng Qianfan?"
"He said he would come to visit me this afternoon." Li Cuiqun shook his head and said, "He is here with bad intentions, to call me to task."
"Going to the pier to question him?" Cao Yu was stunned. "Yesterday at the dock, Mr. Cheng severely humiliated Captain Hu. Does this mean it's not over yet?"
"Why?" Li Cuiqun glanced at Cao Yu, "Do you think the reputation of 'Little Cheng Zong' in Shanghai is so worthless?"
As he spoke, Li Cuiqun snorted coldly, "Si Shui acted rashly, I'm afraid he has greatly offended Cheng Qianfan."
He leaned back on the chair and said, "Si Shui may feel that he suffered a loss yesterday and that Cheng Qianfan embarrassed him. However, I'm afraid my junior fellow student doesn't think so."
"So, this 'Little Mr. Cheng' is still going to keep on pestering us?" Dong Zhengguo frowned and asked, "Yesterday he really humiliated Captain Hu. To put it in a bigger way, he humiliated us at Jisifeilu. Isn't that enough?"
……
"You guys look at things too superficially." Li Cuiqun snorted coldly.
"Were the fireworks yesterday beautiful?" he suddenly asked the two of them.
Dong Zhengguo and Cao Yu looked at each other, not knowing how to answer Li Cuiqun's question.
"The fireworks are not for Hu Sishui to see." Li Cuiqun snorted and said, "Hu Sishui is not qualified to make Cheng Qianfan go to so much trouble."
"Even if he didn't call anyone, you think Cheng Qianfan didn't want to. What can Sishui really do to him?" Li Cuiqun asked back.
"Cheng Qianfan didn't have many people at the time. If Captain Hu forcibly ordered a search, Cheng Qianfan wouldn't be able to stop him." Dong Zhengguo said thoughtfully.
"Too superficial." Li Cuiqun glanced at Dong Zhengguo.
Li Cuiqun leaned forward and looked at the two men. "The muzzle of Cheng Qianfan's gun was pointed at Sishui's head at that time. Do you think if Sishui ordered a forced search, would Cheng Qianfan dare to shoot?"
"I don't think... I dare." Cao Yu swallowed his saliva, "Captain Hu is our Jisifeilu..."
Li Cuiqun looked at Dong Zhengguo.
"I also think that Cheng Qianfan doesn't dare to shoot." Dong Zhengguo thought for a while and said.
"You guys still don't know enough about my junior." Li Cuiqun shook his head.
Dong Zhengguo and Cao Yu were shocked. According to what Li Cuiqun meant, Cheng Qianfan actually dared to shoot and kill Hu Sishui in public? !
……
Li Cuiqun snorted coldly.
Whether it is Cao Yu or Dong Zhengguo, their rank is not high enough and their vision is too narrow. They only see that the Secret Service Headquarters is extremely powerful and dares to do anything, but they don't know that there are some people that even the Secret Service Headquarters, even him, Li Cuiqun, cannot easily take action against.
Apart from anything else, if Cheng Qianfan was really forced into a difficult situation by Sishui, he might really shoot and kill someone!
So, now that his junior fellow student has killed Li Cuiqun's general, who will have the most headache afterwards?
It’s not him, Cheng Qianfan, but him, Li Cuiqun himself!
Cao Yu looked thoughtful, glanced at Li Cuiqun, and then asked cautiously, "Director, do you mean that Cheng Qianfan's fireworks were actually set off for you to see?"
"It's not just me!" Li Cuiqun said, "He showed it to the whole of Shanghai!"
As he spoke, he snorted coldly, "Si Shui's actions have touched the sensitive nerves of my junior. He is taking advantage of the situation! Killing the chicken to scare the monkey!"
