Chapter 285.
“Lao Xu, I’ve received a tip-off that someone is selling a batch of guns on the black market, I want you to disguise yourself as a buyer and make contact with them.”
“Chief, are you trying to fish this person out?” Xu Qinghe understood Cheng Mo’s idea as soon as he heard it.
“Yes. Illegal buying and selling of firearms as well as private possession of firearms is a felony in the Concession and must be combated.” Cheng Mo said, “This is our next focus.”
“Understood.”
No one dared to say anything about Cheng Mo’s selection of “possession of firearms” and illegal trading of firearms as the direction of the crackdown at this time.
For someone who had just been shot, he had every reason to make such a decision.
“Old Xu, it has to be kept secret.”
“I understand.” Xu Qinghe nodded.
“You’re behind the scenes, let that Lu Le step in, he has a raw face and won’t be easily spotted.” Cheng Mo instructed again.
“Okay.”
Two days later, after communication, the person selling the gun agreed to meet at the Queen’s Caf茅 on Yuyuan Road, when Lv Le’s disguised buyer traveled there.
However, he did not meet the person at the agreed time and place.
This was naturally expected by Cheng Mo, the more cautious the other party was, the more it meant that the plans were not small.
As expected.
As Lu Le was getting up to leave, a flower girl pushed open the door of the caf茅 and walked in, handing him a note.
After Lu Le saw the content of the note, he immediately got up to settle the bill and walked out.
He had long been temporarily instructed by Cheng Mo on how to respond to any situation he encountered in a while, so after he left without any panic, he looked around at the door and walked towards the opposite side of the road.
“Don’t be in a hurry, wait and see.” Cheng Mo knew there was a next move when he saw this looking around action of Lu Le, and pulled back the impulsive Xu Qinghe.
If they followed now, there was a high chance that they would be detected by their opponents who were stealthily observing nearby, and at that time, the new location, the gun seller wouldn’t show up and would never appear again.
As expected, a man with a felt hat on his head and his hands in his pockets followed him out of the cafe, following Lu Le unhurriedly.
L眉 Le’s next location was the lobby of the Cangzhou Hotel.
After he entered the lobby, he took a seat on the sofa in the lobby, removed his manners, placed them on the coffee table in front of him, and lit a cigarette.
A few moments later, the man with the felt hat on his head came in.
Only to see him come to Lu Le, bowed his head and said, Lu Le was surprised for a moment, but then took the hat and put it on, followed the man towards the stairway.
Cheng Mo and the others also followed.
The secret service team directly controlled everyone in the lobby, then took over all the entrances and exits at the front and back and quickly went upstairs.
There were many rooms in the Cangzhou Hotel, but L眉 Le’s shoes were specially made and would leave a special mark on the floor, so Cheng Mo could easily find him as he entered that room.
Breaking and entering.
The arrest was made with no effort at all.
Apart from the man in the felt hat, there were two other people in the room a being apprehended, while Lu Le had already been knocked out by them and was ready to be loaded into a box and taken away.
Obviously, the so-called gun sale was just a “bait” to lure people who needed to buy guns to come here and then kidnap them.
But Cheng Mo felt that this matter is not so simple, if it is only kidnapping, demanding ransom, how come there is no relevant news exposure? Obviously, this is not a “kidnapping”, or arrest.
However, the use of “selling guns” as a bait to capture the person is now arrested, all were brought back to the old gate arrest room interrogation.
This interrogation is really interrogated out of something.
These three people are actually employed by the Japanese secret service, using this way to trap anti-Japanese elements, catch people, they will be sent to the Japanese military police to receive a reward.
By this method, many so-called “anti-Japanese elements” were sent in.
Such a meticulous “entrapment” plan, is by no means ordinary thieves can come up with, there must be someone behind the guidance, and, from their bodies also seized guns, which shows that their identity is very unusual.
Under a severe torture.
These three people continue to confess to a person, this person is their top boss, surnamed Liu, living in Ragnar Road.
Cheng Mo immediately led people to arrest.
After some investigation, found that the surname Liu is not a person, there are wife and children, Cangzhou Hotel arrest operation is expected to have leaked out.
Surname Liu has long been unknown where to go, even his wife and children do not want, Cheng Mo in his home searched a lot of valuable documents.
Especially also found some guns very ammunition, the number is quite a lot.
Comparison of documents and information, Cheng Mo realized that they have ended up in the Junta Shanghai Special Administrative Region in the rental sector of a small arsenal.
This is a lot of fun.
But Cheng Mo can be sure that this is responsible for guarding the arms surnamed Liu has mutinied, the reason why it has not been discovered, should be the Japanese reverse use.
This is to allow him to continue to lurk within the Junta’s Shanghai Special Zone with the intention of gaining a greater harvest.
As for the use of arms in their hands to trap “anti-Japanese elements”, it should be this surname Liu’s good bet come up with their own.
Anyway, if the junta action needs arms, certainly do not need to buy from the black market, do this business to encounter the possibility of their own people is extremely small, but some other civil anti-Japanese organizations if you want to weapons to assassinate traitors, then if you want to buy weapons, to buy from the black market a good path ……
Those who have identity will be sold to each other, and those who have no identity background will be captured and sent directly to the Japanese side to collect the reward! There are still such people in this world, simply shameless to the extreme.
Cheng Mo will be this situation with Shen Mo and others, they are also stunned, the military junta Shanghai Special Zone internal actually chaotic to this point.
Tough Japanese special agencies can not enter the lease at will to arrest people, otherwise, it is really a terrible thing, if they also stayed in the organization of the Shanghai Special Zone in the first place, I am afraid that they will also be implicated.
The good thing is that the Japanese special agencies to arrest people in the Japanese Concession, need to be the Concession patrol room with the cooperation of the patrol room within the Junta is an insider.
But the Japanese special organs are also constantly buying and pulling together, they also know that there are people in the arrest room of the Junta, arrest defense is getting more and more guarded.
Cheng Mo reported the defection of “Liu Mou” to the headquarters of the Chongqing Bureau of the military intelligence.
I can imagine how furious Dai Yunong was when he received the secret report. After Zhou Weilong’s arrest, the work of the Shanghai Special Administrative Region has been incredibly bad for him.
This is a problem left over from the past, can not be simply counted on the newly appointed district chief Wang Tianmu head, so, Dai Yu Nong immediately gave Wang Tianmu a strict order, so that he quickly on the Shanghai Special Administrative Region to come to a reorganization, he wants to see the results of his as soon as possible.
As for the betrayal of “Liu Mou”, he issued an order of sanction.
“Liu Mou” is obviously an alias, from his wife and children, her husband called Lin Zhijiang, is the military junta in the Shanghai Special Administrative Region of the operations of the second group leader.
Cheng Mo naturally knew of Lin Zhijiang, and it was in his hands that Miss Pinglu, who was sacrificed by the CCTU in order to assassinate Ding Mochun, died.
And for his defection, did not leave much information, only a few descriptions, not specific, did not expect him to be because of gambling to expose his identity, and then pulled down.
