Chapter 281.
No sooner had the Bureau of Public Works side begun questioning the two living gunmen who had been seriously wounded than the Japanese side came to the door of their own accord.
Requesting to talk.
Even if the two seriously wounded gunmen didn’t talk, the autopsy reports of the three gunmen who had already been killed came out.
The obvious Japanese traits on their bodies, that simply can’t be hidden.
Of course, if the Japanese side had to feel that it was death without proof, then that was fine, as well as tracing the identity of the people from the shooters’ clothing and the items they carried on their bodies.
Especially the weapons and ammunition they used to kill ……
There are still two alive, just wait for them to wake up, take a little more time, the police station has a lot of means to make them talk, depending on which step to take.
Cheng Mo knows very well that it is impossible to investigate the case clearly and punish the mastermind behind the plan.
Unless you have the ability to take revenge with your own hands.
This is not available now.
Cheng Mo also does not want to show off a momentary battle of wills, after all, this is not a frontal battlefield, the two armies fighting, that is simply will not have a compromise and concessions.
At most, there are two years, the Japanese will attack the Concession, he had to consider that time he is to go or stay.
If he stayed, he would have to compromise first, not to confront the Japanese directly, if he was planning to leave, then how to do the next job, he couldn’t be stared at like that all the time, he would still have to compromise.
Moreover, it is not up to him, Dai Yunong has issued instructions over, let him hold back, everything should be the mission of infiltration.
What could he do? Get bent out of shape.
That’s a sign of irresponsibility, one can make up one’s own mind if one is dead or alive, what about Su Mo’er’s, what about the ‘Dark Fire’ team? Under the good offices of the Japanese director of the Bureau of Public Works, Okamoto, the Japanese Military Police Command in Shanghai sent someone to negotiate with the Bureau of Public Works police secret contact.
Cheng Mo was the party involved, naturally qualified to participate, and his opinion was dominant on the side of the Public Works Bureau.
If the terms of the settlement fell short of expectations, it was clear that the Works Bureau side could not agree.
If one’s own people don’t listen, then how can this team be led? The Japanese side proposed an apology and compensation, the apology is naturally private, not public, the Japanese side can not afford to lose this face, once public, then someone will have to be responsible for this matter, to say the least, someone will have to lose his post.
As for compensation, in addition to compensation for a car, but also additional 10,000 yuan of mental comfort.
This condition in the Japanese side looks, has been very generous.
But for Cheng Mo, if he is not lucky enough, then his own life will be lost, the car was their own, this is not compensation, 10,000 yuan, to send a beggar! Cheng Mo naturally disagreed.
This is just for Cheng Mo personally, there is also the problem of Japanese gendarmes in civilian clothes carrying weapons into the concession, this matter must also be resolved.
The Japanese Military Police Command in Shanghai set up a military police detachment in Huxi that repeatedly interfered with the normal work and life of the Concession and was a source of unrest.
The Japanese side will either withdraw the Japanese gendarmes in Shanghai West, or make it a rule that if such things happen again in the future, the Concession side will take care of them on its own, and will no longer take care of the Japanese side.
This is what is going to kill the Japanese side is unlikely to agree.
The first contact between the two sides came to an unhappy end.
But no one said, to directly terminate the negotiations, it can be seen that everyone left room for manoeuvre, wanting to minimize this matter.
Then, there was soon a second contact, said the compensation was mentioned to 30,000, other conditions remain the same, as for the Japanese gendarmerie plainclothes private entry into the lease, the lease authorities can be repatriated, or even restricted from re-entering, and in the event of a crime, shall be extradited to the Japanese side to dispose of the situation! The leasehold authorities refused. Japanese gendarme plainclothes entering the leasehold to engage in illegal intelligence-gathering activities is espionage. The treatment of spies is not the same as military personnel, spies are caught, unless the host country agrees, how to dispose of that is the power of the host country and region.
Negotiations on the right of disposal have nothing to do with Cheng Mo, but the figure of compensation, he is naturally not satisfied, and in one breath, he directly increased to one hundred thousand.
Below one hundred thousand exempt from negotiation, and compensation for the car must be bulletproof, which is also considered to buy a guarantee for the future.
If you do not accept, you will directly publicize the case, let the world to comment, anyway, one of the oral confession has been in hand.
Japanese gendarmes are human beings, and there are moments when they can’t take it anymore.
They also thought that if they confessed, the concession authorities would not dare to do anything to him, so they confessed.
Ironclad evidence.
The Japanese side began to soften, once the truth of the case is released to the public, then Japan will lose face in the international arena.
It’s not uncommon for national intelligence agencies to engage in assassinations of this kind, but it’s usually done secretly, and once the evidence is caught, it’s all a matter of shame.
What’s more, this time they assassinated a police officer, not only did not succeed, but also failed, even more humiliating.
The Japanese side compromised and agreed to the compensation request, and the agreement related to the entry of Japanese gendarmes in plainclothes into the Concession was also modified, making it legally impossible for them to rampage in the Concession.
This is also regarded as the best result of the game between the authorities of the Concession and the Japanese side in the past year.
But this was all because Cheng Mo almost lost his life in exchange.
If it was just a painless compensation, they might continue to make small moves behind their backs again, but the price they paid this time was big and painful, and if they want to do it again next time, they will have to consider the consequences of failure.
Want the Japanese to stop and not do it, that is estimated to be impossible, unless they take the initiative to give up on their own revenge, but subside for a period of time can still be done.
However, the Japanese side this time to take the initiative to “extend the olive branch”, this is a little so that he did not expect, in accordance with the consistent practice of the Japanese side, is not not see the coffin will not shed tears? Take the initiative to reconcile?
Will there be any situation that he does not know.
Cheng Mo is puzzled at the moment, the Japanese side of the compensation in place, 100,000 yen whole, and bulletproof car, this need to order, at least half a year to get.
This Cheng Mo is not in a hurry, he can first buy an ordinary car to drive is.
As soon as the compensation was in place, the Bureau of Public Works handed over the bodies of the three killed gunmen to the Japanese side, and the two seriously wounded were directly repatriated, and were never allowed to set foot in the Concession.
Although the case was over, it had to be explained to the public.
There must be a culprit! Who is the most suitable culprit? Naturally, it’s the Junta, the Blue Coat Society.
This result was not what Cheng Mo wanted, but he couldn’t stop it, because it was also the result of discussions between the Bureau of Public Works authorities and the Japanese side.
Anyway, the Blue Coat Society has committed more than one crime, and one more won’t hurt either.
The reason why the Bureau of Public Works agreed to do this was because even if they had said so, the Blue Coat Society wouldn’t have a problem with it, and Cheng Mo was the intermediary who secretly liaised with the Blue Coats.
As for Dai Yunong, she wouldn’t have a problem with it either, and it would maximize the chance of clearing Cheng Mo’s relationship with the Blue Coat Society (at a time when he might be suspected).
