Chapter 2049 Raid on Zhabei Branch
Zhabei.
This is a building consisting of two three-story buildings connected together, and a sizable courtyard.
This is the location of the Zhabei branch of the First Bureau of the Political Security Bureau.
In addition to his position as a special commissioner of the interrogation department of the First Bureau of the Political Security Bureau, Chai Weifeng now holds a new position: director of the Zhabei branch of the Shanghai branch of the First Bureau of the Political Security Bureau.
This was a position with real power, and it could also be seen as Wan Haiyang's reward for Chai Weifeng's tireless service and ruthless killing during this period.
As the city lights begin to twinkle.
The Zhabei branch office was brightly lit, but the surrounding buildings were all pitch black.
After this place became the headquarters of the Zhabei branch of the Shanghai branch of the First Bureau of the Political Security Bureau, the surrounding residents moved away one after another, unwilling to live near this den of iniquity, for fear of being harmed. After all, Chai Weifeng's inhumanity and indiscriminate killing of innocent people were already well known.
……
Just then, a car appeared first, followed by a military truck, and then two cars behind the military truck, and suddenly drove up and blocked the entrance to the Zhabei branch office compound.
He Hongsheng, a cigarette dangling from his lips, stared in surprise at the cars blocking the entrance.
When the first car pulled up at the gate, he wanted to go out and check and question people; however, when the military truck came and blocked the gate, He Hongsheng stopped in his tracks as he was about to step out of the gate.
There was no other reason than that a Type 96 light machine gun was mounted on the roof of the military truck, its dark muzzle pointing directly at the door, sending chills down one's spine.
However, anger soon rose in He Hongsheng's heart.
Who is this guy? He must have some nerve to block the gate of the Zhabei branch of the Political Security Bureau!
Of course, despite his anger, He Hongsheng wasn't stupid. When he brought one of his men out to question him, he had a smile on his face.
No matter who the other party is, they are not someone a mere underling like him can afford to offend.
These days, the dumbest people are those who are blind to the obvious!
……
"May I ask which branch of the gang you are?" He Hongsheng stepped forward and asked loudly, "What brings you to our Zhabei branch?"
“Not stupid,” Li Hao said with a smile from the car behind the military truck.
With that, he got out of the car.
As Li Hao got out of the car, the agents in the three cars followed suit.
A dozen or so special agents carrying rifles jumped off the military truck, and the men immediately scattered, with some starting to look for cover on the spot.
What is this doing?
Why does it look like they're about to attack the Zhabei branch?
He Hongsheng was startled.
……
"Is your Director Chai here?" Li Haoxu patted off imaginary dust from his clothes, then stepped forward and questioned him with a serious expression.
"Yes, yes," He Hongsheng quickly replied, then asked, "And you are...?"
As the other person approached, he immediately recognized who it was.
Li Hao.
He was the most trusted confidant of "Little Cheng" in the French Concession.
Of course, now "Little Cheng" should be addressed as the Director of the Third Bureau of the Political Security Bureau and the Director of the Special Police Division of the First Police Sub-bureau.
"So it was Captain Li." He Hongsheng visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
Cheng Qianfan's strength in the third game was significantly weaker than their strength in the first game.
Moreover, they were all from the Political Security Bureau. Although they had many conflicts in private, they still had to maintain a harmonious appearance on the surface. He didn't think Li Hao from the Third Bureau would dare to do anything to the Zhabei Branch.
……
He Hongsheng looked at Li Hao and then said, "I wonder what brings Captain Li here to see our bureau chief?"
"What is it?" Li Hao sneered and said sharply, "By order of the superior, arrest Chai Weifeng, a Chongqing extremist!"
"What?" He Hongsheng's mouth dropped open in shock.
He instinctively blocked Li Hao's path.
"Arrest him." Li Hao pointed and gave the order directly, "One of Chai Weifeng's accomplices."
He Hongsheng tried to resist, but was hit with the butt of a rifle and screamed in pain. He was then kicked to the ground and a dark gun barrel was pressed against his forehead. His scream was forced back down his throat.
"Disarm them." Li Hao waved his hand. "Anyone who dares to resist or make a fuss will be executed on the spot."
The group of men immediately disarmed the other two sentry agents.
Both of them were terrified and obediently surrendered, not daring to make a sound.
……
"Where is Chai Weifeng?" Li Hao pointed at someone and demanded.
"In, in the underground interrogation room."
"Ok?"
"Several Chongqing elements were arrested. The bureau chief is here and is personally interrogating them."
"Lead the way," Li Hao said coldly.
At the same time, he ordered A Mao to lead a team to raid the other agents in the courtyard. Anyone who dared to resist was to be shot and killed without exception.
“Anyone who resists is Chai Weifeng’s accomplice in Chongqing. Shoot them on the spot,” Li Hao said coldly.
"Yes, sir!" Amao stood at attention and saluted.
……
The operation to surround and capture A Mao proceeded smoothly, yet not so smoothly.
The phrase "not going smoothly" refers to the resistance from agents of the Zhabei branch, which resulted in a small-scale conflict.
"Smoothly" means that after he shot and killed a leading rebel, the others, seeing that the third round of fighters actually dared to shoot and kill, were immediately too frightened to resist and were obediently disarmed and confined to a room.
……
Let's rewind a few minutes.
The interrogation room of the Zhabei branch was in the basement.
"Mr. Shang, you're putting me in a difficult position." Chai Weifeng lit a cigarette, took a satisfying puff, exhaled a long plume of smoke, glanced at the man on the rack who was already a bloody mess, sighed, and said.
"Director Chai, please, please let me go," Shang Xiaoying pleaded, stammering, as she endured the immense pain.
“Mr. Shang, you’re wrong about that. What do you mean I’m letting you go?!” Chai Weifeng frowned and said, “I was the one who gave you a chance. I was the one with a heart of compassion who showed you a way out. How can you say such heartless things?”
……
"Director Chai, really, we're out of money, we're out of money!" Shang Xiaoying cried out, almost sobbing.
“Mr. Shang, you just can’t see things clearly. Is money more important, or is your life more important?” Chai Weifeng shook his head, sighed, and said.
"We really have no money left." Shang Xiaoying was almost on the verge of collapse. "That thousand silver dollars was already the result of our whole family selling everything we owned. Even if you killed my whole family, we still wouldn't have any money left."
“You said it yourself.” Chai Weifeng’s expression suddenly changed. He pointed at Shang Xiaoying and said, “I never said I would kill your whole family. You asked for it yourself.”
"Ah, Director Chai, no, you can't, you can't!" Shang Xiaoying screamed hysterically, as if she had gone mad.
He was just an honest businessman when Chai Weifeng's men broke into his house and arrested him at the Zhabei branch of the Political Security Bureau, a den of iniquity. Then, someone even identified him as a Chongqing element.
He was then subjected to inhumane torture and abuse.
Ultimately, they were blackmailed into paying money to ransom their family, or else they would be executed in the name of Chongqing separatists.
To save him, his family sold their shop, which they relied on for a living, at a low price, and borrowed money from relatives and neighbors. They finally managed to scrape together a thousand silver dollars, but Chai Weifeng still said it wasn't enough and wanted to pay another thousand silver dollars as atonement money.
Heaven help me, where would he get a thousand silver dollars? Let alone a thousand, he probably couldn't even borrow ten.
……
“Nothing is impossible for me!” Chai Weifeng stared coldly at Shang Xiaoying. “Write to your family and hand over another thousand silver dollars within two days, or you, Shang Xiaoying, will be a Chongqing element and executed on the spot.”
After saying that, Chai Weifeng ignored Shang Xiaoying. In the past few days, he had arrested several hostages. One of them was released after paying the ransom, another was tortured to death, and the third one could probably be extracted from his bones.
"Chai Weifeng, you disregard human life, you kidnap and extort, is there no law left!" Shang Xiaoying was desperate and collapsed, he shouted at the top of his lungs like a madman.
"The law?" Chai Weifeng scooped up a ladle of chili-salt water and splashed it directly onto Shang Xiaoying's battered body, saying viciously, "In Shanghai, in Zhabei, I am the law!"
"Aaaaaah, this is outrageous! God, open your eyes! Aaaaaah, open your eyes!" Shang Xiaoying screamed in agony, roaring in pain.
"God?" Chai Weifeng sneered, and just then, he heard a gunshot.
Chai Weifeng's expression changed.
……
Chai Weifeng naturally didn't believe anyone had the audacity to launch a sneak attack on the Zhabei branch.
This is Shanghai, a city dominated by the Japanese. Neither the Military Intelligence Bureau nor the Red Party dared to attack a branch of the Political Security Bureau.
"Damn it," Chai Weifeng cursed, suspecting that one of his men had gotten drunk and gone on a rampage, accidentally firing a gun.
Of course, it's also possible that the gun accidentally discharged, but that possibility is relatively low.
Chai Weifeng emerged from the basement interrogation room, cursing and swearing, and was about to deal with the men who had fired the gun.
Then, just as he came up from the underground interrogation room, a dark gun barrel was pressed against Chai Weifeng's forehead.
"Who? Are you looking to die?" Chai Weifeng cursed subconsciously, then a chill ran down his spine. He immediately realized that his men would never dare to joke with him like this. So, who was this guy holding a gun to his head?
Red Party?
Chongqing molecule?
Then, Chai Weifeng knew the answer.
……
“Chai Weifeng, your identity has been exposed,” Li Hao said coldly. “Come with me.”
"Li Hao, what are you doing? Who gave you the audacity to do this?" Chai Weifeng shouted, "Guards! Guards!"
Someone has indeed arrived.
However, his men were disarmed and escorted out.
"Li Hao, what do you mean?" Chai Weifeng glared at Li Hao.
"At a time like this, you're still pretending to be calm." Li Hao clapped his hands. "No wonder you're Dai Chunfeng's capable subordinate."
"What?" Chai Weifeng was shocked, then roared angrily, "Li Hao, don't try that on me, don't try to smear me."
"There's no use in arguing." Li Hao waved his hand. "Tie him up and take him away."
"Who dares!" Chai Weifeng shouted. "What are you going to do? Where's Cheng Qianfan? What's he going to do?"
Then he was elbowed, screamed, and had his mouth stuffed with a rag.
"Take everyone away for interrogation and screening," Li Hao said in a deep voice.
"clear."
Just then, a noise came from the underground interrogation room. Li Hao frowned and led two of his men downstairs.
……
"This is utterly blatant disregard for human life!" Cheng Qianfan looked at the confession in his hand, his anger rising, and slammed his fist on the table.
This statement is a testimony given by Shang Xiaoying and several other citizens who were kidnapped by the Zhabei branch of the Public Security Bureau. They were signed and fingerprinted, and their testimonies exposed Chai Xiaofeng's indiscriminate killing of innocent people, kidnapping for ransom, and harming citizens.
“These people need to be protected. Tell them that our Third Bureau loves and protects the people, and we will definitely seek justice for them,” Cheng Qianfan said.
"Yes." Li Hao nodded with a strange smile.
"Has Chai Weifeng confessed?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
“No.” Li Hao shook his head. “Chai Weifeng keeps saying he wants to see you, Brother Fan, and he’s also saying that Wan Haiyang won’t let us off the hook.”
“Listen to this,” Cheng Qianfan clicked his tongue. “There’s something fishy going on between our Director Wan and Chai Weifeng. We need to investigate this thoroughly.”
"Then should we use severe torture?" Li Hao asked.
"Torture him severely." Cheng Qianfan snorted and said, "The fact that he was able to infiltrate our ranks for so long shows how cunning he is. He won't talk without severe torture."
"understood."
……
Wan Haiyang was awakened from his sleep by a sudden phone call.
"What? Impossible!" Wan Haiyang exclaimed in surprise, then his drowsiness vanished instantly. "What is Cheng Qianfan going to do?!"
"Chief, what do we do now?" Zhao Chaoyang asked anxiously.
"Where is he now?" Wan Haiyang asked.
“At number 15 Taylor Road,” Zhao Chaoyang said.
"Gather the men," Wan Haiyang said, his face ashen. "Come with me to get the people."
"Yes."
Zhao Chaoyang ordered his men to assemble, and as he walked and talked with Wan Haiyang, he said, "Chief, has Cheng Qianfan gone mad? He actually dared to send people to raid the Zhabei branch! What is he trying to do?"
……
What is Cheng Qianfan going to do?
Wan Haiyang's face was grim; he had already formed his own judgment and guesses.
“I reckon Cheng Qianfan already knows about the assassination attempt at Xiaguan Railway Station; we sent people to do it,” Wan Haiyang said with a grim face.
“How could that be?” Zhao Chaoyang frowned and said, “Qu Yan is still in Zhenjiang, he’s safe and sound. If Cheng Qianfan knew that we were the ones who carried out the assassination at Xiaguan Railway Station, Qu Yan would have been in trouble long ago.”
Hearing Zhao Chaoyang say this, Wan Haiyang also hesitated.
He also knew Cheng Qianfan quite well. Just as Zhao Chaoyang said, if Cheng Qianfan knew that the assassination at Xiaguan Railway Station was carried out by Qu Yan, Cheng Qianfan would definitely send someone to take action against Qu Yan immediately.
Meanwhile, Qu Yan is safe and sound.
"We can't worry about that now." Wan Haiyang sneered and said, "No matter the reason, Cheng Qianfan's attack on the Zhabei branch is a provocation. Is Cheng Qianfan trying to rebel?"
"Prepare the car, head to Telastu Road!" Wan Haiyang shouted sternly.
He wanted to personally rescue Chai Weifeng, and at the same time, he wanted to personally question Cheng Qianfan about his intentions.
Want to die?
He will make the whole journey smooth sailing.
……
"Chief, should we bring more people along?" Zhao Chaoyang asked.
“No need, your large team is enough,” Wan Haiyang said. “Bringing too many people will only make things worse…”
However, Wan Haiyang's expression suddenly changed. "Gather everyone at home and go there fully armed!"
Thinking back to how Cheng Qianfan, despite being less powerful than Zhang Xiaolin, still dared to attack Zhang Xiaolin, he still had to be as careful as possible when facing Cheng Qianfan now.
