Chapter 511.
Only after hearing Peng Nian’s words did Ding Mo Chuen understand what was going on.
The day Chen Manli was shot I night, Peng Nian called ahead to the Paramount Ballroom and made a reservation for this Chen Manli to accompany her.
Since someone booked in advance, Chen Manli also agreed.
So, even if Peng Nian refused to come that night, Chen Manli can not go to accompany others, anyway, this night she accompanied the dance payment will not be less.
Peng Nian accompanied his guests to dinner that night, and went a little late, Chen Manli was chatting with her friends on the dance floor, and was shot and killed by a gunman sent by an unknown person.
And the person who was talking with Chen Manli at that time was Zhu Tianming, the boss of Jardine Sugar, this guy was also pursuing Chen Manli.
Coincidentally, Zhu Tianming and Peng Nian are of comparable stature, and their clothes are similar in color, so if you distinguish them from their backs alone, it’s really hard to tell who’s who for a while.
Zhu Tianming was just a rich businessman with no special background.
And the gunman fired twice in a row, the first time was directed at Zhu Tianming, probably missed and missed, but the second time hit Chen Manli.
Before Chen Manli some out of the ordinary remarks, said what she does not accompany the Japanese dance and so on, for its win a lot of praise, in the Shanghai Bund dancers, distinct and unique, become everyone knows the patriotic dancer.
If you say that Chen Manli is a Chongqing background, that custody is someone to believe, but exactly how the truth, now do not know.
And with Chen Manli friendship, others do not have a big problem, but Peng Nian this 76 purge committee secretary-general and general affairs director can be a big problem.
How could he be close to such a controversial dancer?
And was Chen Manli using her status to take advantage of the opportunity to get close to Peng Nian, to turn him to do things for the Chongqing side, or to gain direct access to classified information? Chen Manli is now killed, about her possible hidden identity is widely speculated, and Peng Nian is her friendship people, was suspected, that is not the slightest problem ……
Lin Shiqun used this suspicion to investigate him, that was also logical.
If Ding Mo Chuen does not listen to him, then Lin Shiqun can use this reason to put him into the preferential treatment room of the Gao Yang room.
Those who were locked in, could not come out without giving an account of their problems. As to what to give an account of, it depended on what you wanted to say.
Peng Nian came to Ding Mo Chuen, but also to remind him, in case he was locked up by Lin Shiqun, when he could not bear to say anything, you old Ding can not blame me, after all, what kind of place is the preferential treatment room, you also know.
“Old Peng, this Chen Manli in the end what is the identity, you tell me the truth?” Ding Mo Chuen also heard it.
He didn’t say anything on the surface about the death of Cao’s father and son, but in fact, he had long built up a bellyful of fire against Lin Shiqun inside.
Although it proved the sinister intentions of Cao’s father and son, he was coming after himself, and he wanted to drive himself out of No. 76.
Cao’s father and son were provoking the relationship between the two, but if they weren’t suspicious of each other, could anyone else provoke them? Cao s father and son have someone behind them, but now this person they don t want to mess with, that surnamed Xiong also has the Japanese behind them now.
Peng Nian was his own beloved, if they messed with Peng Nian as well, then the prestige he had just built up in 76 with great difficulty would collapse.
“I just know that she is a dancer, nothing else.” Peng Nian said.
“Did the inspector’s office look for you?”
“Well, an officer named Qin Chi, who is under the British detective Claire of the Jing’an Temple Constabulary.” Peng Nian nodded, “But he’s now seconded to the Political Unit’s Chinese Unit under Chief Xiao Cheng.”
“This case is being investigated by the Political Unit?”
“Yes.”
“Generally criminal cases are investigated by the Criminal Unit, and if the Political Unit is involved, then it must have something to do with intelligence or politics, so it seems that this Chen Manli could really have other identities.” Ding Mo Chuen murmured. “Director, if Chen Manli really has other identities, then I can’t even wash myself by jumping into the Huangpu River.” Peng Nian’s face changed.
“Old Peng, don’t be anxious, even if there is a problem with Chen Manli’s identity, but that doesn’t mean you have a problem.” Ding Mo Chuen said, “I know about this matter, you go back first, turn around and wait for me to understand the situation, then find you.”
“Yes, Director, then I’ll leave first.” Peng Nian also knew that it was impossible for Ding Mochun to promise him anything, but as long as he knew about this matter, he would be much safer.
“Old Peng, stay for dinner …….”
“No, sister-in-law, I still have a bureau in the evening.” Peng Nian was busy finding an excuse, Ding Mo Chuen had told him to go back, how could he stay for dinner.
“Old Ding, Old Peng this all came, you didn’t even stay for a meal?” Ding Mochun came down from upstairs, Zhao Huimin complained.
“He doesn’t want to himself, let him be.” Ding Mochun let out an embarrassed cry, he never thought of asking Peng Nian to join him for dinner.
There was no need for that.
Staying and talking about anything at the dinner table, at this time, Pang Nian probably didn’t have the mood or the idea.
“This is information on Hiroshi Kinno.”
“Thanks for your hard work, Chiyoko.” Cheng Mo took it and flipped through it while asking, “It didn’t make things difficult for you.”
“After I brought it up to Officer Kawasaki, he knew it was the information you wanted.” Chiyo said as she poured a glass of water and took a sip.
“Did Minister Kawasaki say anything more, about me investigating the officers of the Naval Armed Forces?” Cheng Mo asked with a slight look up.
“This case shouldn’t have much to do with this Hiroshi Kinno, otherwise they wouldn’t have easily handed over Hiroshi Kinno’s information to me.” Chiyoko said.
“Yes, I asked you to get me a copy of Hiroshi Kinno’s information, it’s actually to test your attitude, if you give it painfully, it means there’s nothing wrong with it.” Cheng Mo nodded, asking that Chiyoko to get Kawasaki Tatsuo to get information on Hiroshi Kinno had the meaning of testing in it.
Chiyoko said, “Killing someone for a dancer is not like the style of the Kinno family.”
“Now it seems like the possibility of manslaughter is getting higher and higher.” Cheng Mo said as he put away Hiroshi Kinno’s information.
“Manslaughter?”
“Who was the killer’s real target, that sugar company’s owner Zhu Tianming, he doesn’t look like someone who has a deadly grudge against someone?”
“It’s not him, it should be someone else.” Cheng Mo said.
“This case is getting more and more fantastical, Cheng Mo Jun, only you are able to solve the case.” Chiyoko didn’t forget to praise her lover boy.
“Chiyoko, can I see Hiro Kinno for a moment?”
“This ……” Chiyoko hesitates, Hiroshi Kinno belongs to the military officer of the Japanese Navy’s military office in Shanghai, not in the same system as her, there is no interaction in this private, how to make an appointment?
“It’s fine, if I can’t get an appointment, I’ll use my own methods.” Cheng Mo saw Chiyoko’s difficult expression and didn’t want to make things difficult for her, so he changed his words.
“I’ll give it a try, let you know if I have news.”
