Siheyuan: Married a female spy at the beginning of 1944

Chapter 12 The Police Department Goes Crazy

After sending Miss Tan home, He Daqing tactfully left.

He was still thinking about how to face those somewhat unfamiliar colleagues when he went to work tomorrow.

The people at the police station over there have already started to act frantically.

Inside Qianmen, Shuncheng Street, the pseudo police headquarters, the director’s office.

Police Chief Cui Jianchu: "The victims this time were Japanese, and two of them died at once.

And he was stabbed to death in the street. If you can't find the person for me.

Don’t say my hat is in danger, even your heads should be protected.”

Cui Jianchu stood in front of his desk, pointing at several branch directors and giving them a lecture.

Although he is the director of the Police Headquarters, he does not actually have the final say in this police station.

There is also a consultant's office below the director's office.

All the staff in this consulting office are Japanese.

Although the police chief is nominally the highest head of the police station, in reality he must consult with Japanese advisers before making decisions on major matters.

The commander of the advisory office is Major Miyauchi.

In front of the Major-General Miyauchi, Cui Jianchu was just a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

Everything must be consulted with the palace.

As soon as the news of the assassination of a Japanese person reached the palace today.

He immediately called Cui Jianchu over.

Then he slapped him several times and ordered Cui Jianchu to find the murderer within a week.

If he cannot be found, Cui Jianchu must be severely punished.

Police Chief Cui Jianchu can only shift the pressure downward.

First, he beat up Yuan Gui, the director of the branch office in charge of the crime scene.

Then I told the other party that if there was no useful clue within three days, he would have to come to me with his head on the line.

Next, he reprimanded the remaining 15 branch chiefs and asked them to patrol for suspicious elements.

"Everyone should be alert recently. Five people from the detective team died a few days ago, and now another Japanese has died. Someone must be causing trouble. Check for more suspicious persons. Yuan Gui stays, and the others go back."

After the other branch directors left, Cui Jianchu sat in his office chair and said to Yuan Gui

"Yuan Gui, this case must be explained, do you understand?"

Cui Jianchu also knew that since the other party dared to assassinate him in the street, he must have prepared a retreat.

The world is so chaotic nowadays that catching a courageous and planned murderer is harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

So he was also hinting to Yuan Gui that if he couldn't find the person, he should find someone who was willing to convict him.

"Director, I understand. No matter what, I will definitely give you an explanation within three days.

I will definitely bring the criminals who assassinated the Imperial Japanese Army to justice and will not make things difficult for the Director."

Seeing that Yuan Gui was so tactful, he softened his tone.

"Yuan Gui, you know that this incident happened in your jurisdiction. If I hadn't made my position clear, the Japanese might have taken their anger out on you. I hope you understand my painstaking efforts."

Stand at attention and bow.

"I will always remember the director's protection and cultivation."

Seeing that Yuan Gui was so sensible, Cui Jianchu didn't explain any more.

"Well, go down and hand in a result as soon as possible."

In the consulting room, several Japanese consultants were also holding a meeting.

Among them is the head of the detective team, Tadao Koinu.

"Brother-in-law, five people died in our detective team the day before yesterday. We investigated and found no clues. Now our compatriots have been killed again. Do you think it is possible that the same group of people did it?"

Miyauchi was holding the investigation reports of the two cases and reading them carefully.

After reading it, he shook his head slightly.

“When you are working, you should refer to my position, not my brother-in-law.

That shouldn’t be the case. Your detective team had a gunfight with them because you were trying to catch the Kuomintang’s spies.

At that time, one person had been killed and one person was surrounded.

The person who was providing support from behind was not using a gun, so he should not be a secret agent.

The two soldiers who were killed today were shot to death at close range with a pistol. It was two pistols, fired rapidly in a short period of time.

And according to the testimonies of eyewitnesses, the man who killed your detective team had hair, although it was not long.

But the man who killed the imperial soldier had a bald head, and a shiny bald head.”

Judging from the two cases, Miyauchi also didn't believe that this was done by one person.

And according to the investigation results, the two people who attacked the detective team yesterday have already escaped by train.

How could he turn around and carry out an assassination?

And they were just two ordinary soldiers.

If it was an assassination of a government official, it could also be an act of espionage.

However, most of the assassinations of ordinary soldiers were carried out by anti-Japanese elements in the community. These people were unorganized and most of them acted on impulse.

There was no assassination target at all. Or rather, their assassination target was all Japanese.

Koinuma Chutaro nodded in sudden realization.

"Your Excellency the Commander's analysis is correct. What a pity! If it was done by the same person, I could still follow the clues and find the Kuomintang spy."

The other people also held the files and analyzed the situation sentence by sentence.

The final results were very consistent.

The spy who killed the detective team members has already escaped. There is no need to waste manpower and resources to track him down.

The murderer who assassinated the imperial soldier today was an individual act, not an organization.

"How about this, let all the police in the city conduct searches based on these conditions, and the first one is bald heads.

Then there is this height screening.

There are probably not many people in the whole of Beijing who meet these two criteria.”

He Daqing always killed people during the day, so it was normal for people to see him.

Gong Nei handed the plan directly to Cui Jianchu and asked Cui Jianchu to immediately organize a city-wide police search.

When He Daqing returned home, it was already dark.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Yan Bugui's wife sitting at the door.

He Daqing knew that his family was in dire straits and was waiting for him to go home and get food.

"I'll go home and get some food. I was seeing Miss Tan off just now and didn't have time to get some food for you."

He Daqing returned home and filled a clay basin with mixed noodles.

Then he went back to the front yard and handed it to Yan Bugui's wife.

"Your family should eat these first, and try to save them as much as possible. There are still many hard days ahead."

"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I don't know how I would get through this day. Thank you, Brother Daqing."

He Daqing responded with a few words and went home.

After dinner, as usual, I let the two children go back to bed.

Looking at the spacious bed and the narrow wooden board, He Daqing felt a little unbalanced.

"How's your leg? Is there any suppuration?"

"Maybe not."

He Daqing didn't have much medical knowledge. He just knew that it would be very dangerous if the patient had a fever after the wound was treated.

"Do you need to go to the bathroom? If you do, I'll be out first."

At this time, most civilians had no entertainment activities at night. If there was any, it was only one, which was to create humans.

Most people rest at sunset and work at sunrise.

After dinner, it was already dark and most people were ready for bed.

The same goes for He Daqing. There is no internet or game consoles in this place, and he doesn't know what to do except sleeping.
