Chapter 1790: The Police Station May Have Xiong Zhenlou Members
"Mr. Zuo Shang, you misunderstood." Beads of sweat appeared on Meng Fanyu's forehead. "Please listen to my explanation."
Saeki Umezuzu looked at Meng Fanyu coldly.
"Meng did this because he wanted to test the reaction of the police station." Meng Fanyu said, "It was just that the matter was rushed and I didn't have time to report it to Mr. Zuoshang. I hope Mr. Zuoshang will forgive me."
"To test the police station?" Sasaki Umezu looked at Meng Fanyu, "Tell me in detail."
"I have always kept in mind what Mr. Sakami told me. I tossed and turned, unable to sleep at night, and I couldn't wait to complete the task Mr. Sakami assigned me as soon as possible." Meng Fanyu said.
Sasaki Umezuchi had a blank expression on his face and nodded without comment. He wanted to hear how Meng Fanyu would argue.
……
"I suddenly remembered something earlier." Meng Fanyu said, "When He Qichen and I were drinking, he once said under the influence that the graduates of Xiongzhen Building would be sent to the Shanghai Concession to hide secretly."
"Why didn't you report this earlier?" Saeki Umezuchi suddenly sat up straight and asked.
"This is just what He Qichen said after drinking. I have forgotten about this matter. If I hadn't been thinking about Mr. Zuo Shang's mission, I wouldn't have thought of this." Meng Fanyu said quickly.
In order to exonerate himself, he racked his brains to come up with this 'almost perfect' reason, but of course he didn't have time to report it to Sakami Umezumi.
"The name He Qichen sounds familiar." Sasaki Umezu said, frowning.
"He Qichen served as the captain of the Hangzhou station operations team of the Lixingshe Secret Service Department a few years ago." Meng Fanyu said.
Sakami Umezu nodded. He remembered He Qichen. After the empire occupied Hangzhou, the Lixingshe Secret Service went underground. He Qichen spent the night at his mistress's house and was captured by the Imperial Gendarmerie. He soon defected to the empire.
"Did He Qichen really say those words to you?" asked Sasaki Umezu.
"That's true." Meng Fanyu said quickly, "I heard that He Qichen has also turned over a new leaf and is working for the Empire of Japan. Mr. Sakami can arrange for someone to question He Qichen."
"I will arrange someone to inquire about this matter with Hangzhou. Please continue." Sasaki Umezu nodded. In his heart, he already believed what Meng Fanyu said.
……
"Earlier, Meng met Cheng Qianfan by chance at Sincere Department Store. Later, when he visited Cheng Qianfan, he had an idea and revealed the clues of the Red Party that I accidentally discovered, in order to get close to Cheng Qianfan." Meng Fanyu said.
"Do you suspect that the person who sneaked into the concession from Xiongzhenlou is Cheng Qianfan?" A strange look appeared on Sasami Umezumi's face.
"No." Meng Fanyu shook his head. "I just want to get close to Cheng Qianfan and gain his friendship. Then it will be convenient for me to go in and out of the police station and investigate the 'student' of that year."
"How can you be sure that your students in Xiongzhen Building are in the French Concession, in the Central Police House, and not in the International Settlement, or other departments in the French Concession?" asked Umezumi Saeaki.
"Not sure." Meng Fanyu shook his head. "I'm just thinking about taking it one step at a time. I'll build a good relationship with the police first, and then plan for the future."
"Why did you choose Cheng Qianfan as the breakthrough point?" Saeki Umezu asked suspiciously.
"It's just because I heard that Cheng Qianfan hates the red color extremely, and it just so happens that the clues about the Red Party that I found can be used as a gift to get close to Cheng Qianfan." Meng Fanyu said.
Sasami Umezu said nothing, just stared at Meng Fanyu.
……
Meng Fanyu was nervous in his heart, but his face was full of respect. He thought quickly in his mind that this excuse he had come up with on the spur of the moment should not have any flaws. The most important thing was that there would be no evidence to prove it!
"Meng-san." Said Umezumi Saeki.
"Mr. Sakami."
"Your idea is good." Saejo Umezumi smiled. "However, if you could report in advance before taking action, the whole plan could be more perfect and would not cause so many misunderstandings."
"It's Meng's fault." Meng Fanyu breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he was smart and he had managed to fool it.
He then quickly said, "It happened suddenly, and Meng was careless."
"So, tell me what results your attempt has yielded?" asked Umezumi Saeki slowly.
"That 'Little Cheng' really hates the color red. I told him about the clues of the Red Party, and he was very interested." Meng Fanyu said, "I also suggested the plan of playing the long game to catch the big fish to Cheng Qianfan, and he readily agreed."
"Although something unexpected happened later." Meng Fanyu continued, "However, after this incident, I have won Cheng Qianfan's friendship, which will facilitate my future actions."
……
"Hmm." Saejo Umezu nodded, then he thought for a moment and said, "If you report before the action, you can go a step further. I can also provide clues about the Military Control Commission members and let the police station arrest them. If we can even find out the possible Chongqing members in the police station..."
"No, Mr. Zuo Shang." Meng Fanyu said solemnly, "The members of the Military Control Commission who came out of Xiongzhen Building are all outstanding talents within the Military Control Commission. Not to mention that this person has been lurking in Shanghai for many years. This person must be extremely vigilant."
"My sudden appearance would easily arouse vigilance. If I had used the Military Control Commission members as bait from the beginning, it would have alerted potential enemies instead." Meng Fanyu said, "Meng adopted a step-by-step strategy to gradually reduce the enemy's vigilance, and then make plans later."
He stood up and poured tea for Saejo Umezumi, and continued, "Chongqing seems to be cooperating with the Red Party, but in fact, it is extremely wary of the Red Party and never forgets to take action against the Red Party. I approached the Red Party as a 'gift', which would not arouse the vigilance of potential enemies."
"It's a thorough search!" Saejo Umezuchi showed a look of approval on his face, "Meng is indeed an experienced person, and he considers things carefully."
"Meng acted rashly." Meng Fanyu said quickly.
"Very good, your plan is very good." Saejo Umezumi said, "I will arrange for Yajima Kotaro to contact you. I hope you two can work together to catch this Military Control Commission member who came from Xiongzhenlou as soon as possible."
"Yes." Meng Fanyu said quickly, "Meng will definitely cooperate sincerely with Yajima-kun."
……
Umezumi Saejo turned his head and glanced at Yajima Kotaro who was standing behind him and remained silent. "Yajima, you understand your job."
"Hayi." Yajima Kotaro said, "I will definitely cooperate with Mr. Meng to complete this task."
"Very good." Saejo Umezumi glanced at Meng Fanyu, then placed an envelope on the table, "Meng-san, this is your activity funds for next month."
"Thank you very much, thank you Mr. Sakami." Meng Fanyu said happily, "Meng will definitely devote his life to the Great Empire of Japan until his death."
Sajo Umezu nodded slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea.
Seeing this, Meng Fanyu took the envelope, said goodbye and left tactfully.
……
Umezu Sae held the teacup in his hand and drank the tea in silence.
He no longer took small sips of water, but drank tea in big gulps.
"Yajima." Umezu Sagami said.
"Sir." said Kotaro Yajima.
"Do you think Meng Fanyu's words are credible?" asked Saeki Umezumi.
"What is the question, sir?" asked Kotaro Yajima.
"His explanation," said Umezumi Saeaki.
"I was just thinking about it, and it seems to be a reasonable explanation." Yajima Kotaro said, "Meng Fanyu has no need to lie, and I believe this person would not dare to deceive us. In addition, whether it is true or not, please ask He Qichen in Hangzhou and you will know."
Sajou Umezumi nodded slightly, "You go contact Hangzhou. If possible, it would be best to ask Hangzhou to arrange for He Qichen to come to Shanghai."
……
"Hayi." Yajima Kotaro nodded, "Meng Fanyu's explanation seems reasonable and should be true. However, I think it is more like 70% truth mixed with 30% lies."
"You heard it too?" Saejo Umezuchi snorted coldly and said.
"Yes, He Qichen should have said those drunken words. However, I feel that Meng Fanyu's purpose of approaching Cheng Qianfan in this way may not be, or may not be entirely as Meng Fanyu said." Yajima Kotaro said.
"Meng Fanyu is very cunning. He is selfish, or we can say that he is very selfish." Saeki Umezumi said, "We need to use him, but we also need to be on guard against him."
Sasaki Umezuzu rubbed his brows and said, "Meng Fanyu is still useful for now."
"Hai."
……
Central Police Station.
torture room.
Cheng Qianfan sat on a chair, holding a cigarette between his fingers, and watched with interest as his men whipped Han Lin with a whip.
When a whip soaked in salt water is used to whip a person, the pain in the person's nerves will be instantly amplified many times. Every time the whip falls, it is accompanied by Han Lin's screams.
"Don't tell me!"
"Don't tell me!"
Han Lin screamed in agony as the whip whipped his body, but he never confessed.
"Qu Yong, haven't you eaten yet?" Cheng Qianfan flicked the ash off his cigarette and said.
"Brother Fan, this is a tough nut to crack." Qu Yong said as he wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel.
In this hot weather, whipping people with a whip is hard work.
"Go." Cheng Qianfan nodded at Haozi.
Haozi walked forward with a stern face, took the whip from Qu Yong's hand, and started whipping Han Lin without saying a word.
Soon, Han Lin's screams became quieter and quieter, and finally ceased.
"Brother Fan, he has fainted." Haozi walked up to Han Lin and touched his nose, confirming that he was still breathing, then turned to Brother Fan and said.
"I can't tell." Cheng Qianfan said with a sigh, "He has delicate skin and tender flesh, but he is still a hard bone."
As he said that, he stood up and walked to the water tank, scooped a bucket of water, and poured it directly on Han Lin to wake him up.
……
"Han Lin." Cheng Qianfan stepped forward and grabbed Han Lin's hair. "Tell me your superiors, your subordinates, and your accomplices, and I can spare your life. Otherwise, you will experience what it means to be worse off than dead."
"Pooh!" Han Lin spat blood all over Cheng Qianfan's face.
"You bastard." Qu Yong cursed at the side and quickly handed him a clean towel. As he spoke, he was about to pick up the burning iron in the charcoal basin and press it.
Cheng Qianfan stretched out his hand to stop him. He glanced at Han Lin and said, "You are so stubborn. What a pity."
As he spoke, he sighed, "You are so young, yet you are bewitched by the color red. If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your parents. Is it easy for them to raise you?"
"Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved at the same time. I will sacrifice my life for my country. My parents should be proud of me." Han Lin's eyes were red as he looked at Cheng Qianfan and shouted, "Our beliefs, our will, and what we are going to do are incomprehensible to a traitor like you."
"You have been too deeply bewitched by the red heresy." Cheng Qianfan shook his head gently, "Mr. Wang has found the brightest way out for China, which is the path of saving the country peacefully. This is..."
"Draw your sword and make it a piece, you big traitor Wang." Han Lin sneered and cursed, "The big Wang family has the shamelessness to forget their ancestors, and the little Han Lin is willing to sacrifice his life for the country. Long live the red, and the war of resistance will win!"
……
Cheng Qianfan's face changed. He took the whip from Haozi's hand, gritted his teeth, and started whipping Han Lin. Soon, Han Lin fainted again.
"Wake him up and brand him." Cheng Qianfan threw the whip on the ground and said coldly.
"Yes!"
It was at this moment that the door of the interrogation room opened.
Cheng Qianfan turned his head and saw Jin Kemu coming in accompanied by Su Zhe, with several patrolmen following behind Jin Kemu.
And Old Huang also followed behind, carrying a medicine box.
……
"Boss Jin." Cheng Qianfan took off his blood-stained gloves and walked over to him. "Why are you here in such a filthy place?"
"What? Did you torture me personally?" Jin Kemu glanced at the gloves thrown on the ground by Cheng Qianfan. There were already a lot of blood stains on the white gloves.
"He is stubborn and recalcitrant." Cheng Qianfan shook his head. "He insulted Mr. Wang with his words. It's really a pity that such a good young man was bewitched by the color red. He was so angry that he resorted to violence."
Jin Kemu frowned slightly. Cheng Qianfan sometimes began to mention Wang Tianhai without any scruples in the police station. He really didn't even bother to hide it.
This means they are determined to follow Wang’s pseudo-regime in Nanjing all the way to the end!
"I want to take the person away." Jin Kemu glanced at Cheng Qianfan and said lightly.
"Boss Jin, the interrogation is still going on. Who knows, this guy might start talking soon." Cheng Qianfan was anxious and immediately stopped him.
"If you continue to torture someone, someone will die." Jin Kemu frowned as he looked at Han Lin, whose flesh and blood were beaten by the whip.
Then he said to Lao Huang behind him, "Lao Huang, go check it out."
"Yes." Old Huang walked forward with the medicine box and gave it a quick inspection.
Then he first looked at Cheng Qianfan, and then at Jin Kemu.
……
"Old Huang, tell the truth." Jin Kemu said in a deep voice, "I can definitely find someone else to check the prisoner's physical condition."
After hearing this, Old Huang said helplessly, "Boss Jin, the prisoner was tortured quite severely and must have fainted several times."
"Let me ask you, is the prisoner's life in danger if we continue to torture him?" Su Zhe asked from the side.
"Probably, maybe, possibly." Old Huang said vaguely.
"Qianfan, I've taken the person away." Jin Kemu looked at Cheng Qianfan, "There's a call from the Gongju Court. The prisoner's family has hired a lawyer and wants to see the prisoner."
He said with a serious expression, "It's not nice for the prisoner to be seen in this state."
Jin Kemu looked at Lao Huang and said, "Lao Huang, come with me and treat the prisoner."
"Yes." said Lao Huang.
