Chapter 166.
“Amer, is she pretty, or am I pretty?”
“You’re pretty.”
“What’s her personality like, what does she like to do in her spare time, watch movies, go shopping, or read books?”
“She ……”
Cheng Mo’s memories are all of the original Cheng Mo, on the surface, he and Chiyoko did not have any transgressions.
But the time they spent together was more than the friendship of ordinary friends, and they had the opportunity to develop into lovers.
But the difference between each other’s nationalities, coupled with national hatred, Cheng Mo even know Chiyoko is a very good girl, he is not willing to take that step.
In fact, “Cheng Mo” heart is Chiyoko, only, by the current Cheng Mo takeover, this feeling has been diluted.
Although Su Moer asked a lot of questions, but her heart is still very happy, her husband received the letter the first time to tell her frankly, she can also feel that Cheng Mo has a girl in his heart, after all, human beings are emotional animals, together for a long time, it is inevitable that will not produce feelings.
Just as she studied in France, there are Chinese students in the school, there are also people who have pursued her, and even silently guarded for several years.
The other didn’t last long and left during the final test.
From this failed relationship lessons, Su Moer understands a truth, feelings are not used to test, once you are ready to test, then the relationship has come to an end.
Loyalty can be, love can not.
Love is the purest, can not afford any test.
From the heart will be able to, wrong, from the beginning again.
Glancing at his wife who was already sleeping sweetly, Cheng Mo understood that he would not fail Su Moer no matter what.
“Chief, something’s wrong!” Early in the morning, Cheng Mo had just arrived at the arrest room, Xu Qinghe pushed the door in, his tryst turned out to be correct, for so many years, he had not been able to take a step forward, since he followed Cheng Mo, he had jumped two levels within a year.
When one reaches middle age, it seems like luck has come to him all of a sudden.
“What is it?” Cheng Mo couldn’t be like him, he had to be calm and steady at the rudder, otherwise how could he be an officer.
“Pingwang Street, the case of the upstairs/downstairs conflict we took before, the little Japanese died.” Xu Qinghe reported.
“What?” Cheng Mo was slightly shocked, regarding Nojiri and Keiko’s identity, he did not let Shen Mo inform the Shanghai district side.
The purpose was also to fear that the Junta would mess around in the concession and create trouble for him, after all, he was now tasked with a secret liaison line with the Junta.
The purpose of this line is that both sides control themselves, and the side of the Concession will be lenient to the arrested anti-Japanese elements, for example, will not be extradited to the Japanese gendarmerie, while the Blue Coat Society should not be large-scale terrorist sabotage, such as assassinations and kidnappings, and so on, in the Concession.
Of course, these are all unspoken things, the focus is still on control, do not let the situation get out of control, as long as there is no large-scale conflict, the Concession side is acceptable.
Otherwise, if something happens in the area controlled by the Japanese, but nothing happens in the Concession, then the Japanese will also suspect that the authorities of the Concession and the Blue Coat Society have reached some kind of agreement.
Especially for the Japanese side, this is a verbal agreement, the military intelligence in the leased territory, assassination of traitors, this Ministry of Public Works Bureau can turn a blind eye, but the arrest will still be arrested, the solve the case or have to be solved, or else, the Japanese side can not be accounted for.
But the Japanese cannot be touched. Once a Japanese dies in the Concession, and if it is an unnatural death, it will give the Japanese an excuse to enter the Concession.
The British don’t want to get tough with the Japanese in the Far East, so if a Japanese dies in the Concession, the problem will be quite serious.
But it’s not absolute. If the Japanese were intelligence agents, they were not subject to such restrictions.
Intelligence agents are not civilians, not even in the captured can not be counted as prisoners of war, can not enjoy the treatment of prisoners of war, if it is in the two wars in the country, that is not after the trial, directly escorted to the execution ground shot.
Nojiri’s matter, Cheng Mo did not report to Pryde.
Since he is going to move the “Inoue” public house line, how can he let Pryde know, he knows, will not he also exposed. He was a special agent of the Far East Intelligence Group of the British Secret Service, and had taken a verbal oath of allegiance to the British Empire.
As long as not move Nojiri and Keiko couple, the British people do not know, Inoue Nishiaki also can not suspect his head.
Now this Nojiri actually died.
On the occasion of the junta Shanghai district major action team to get rid of the “dog team”, which had to let Cheng Mo think more, Shen Mo will not go behind their backs to the “Nojiri” couple of things are also disclosed to the junta Shanghai district.
These people will not consider your safety, directly sent people to kill, which threw the trouble to him.
This kind of dead friend of the road thing they can do.
But Shen Mo should understand his own thoughts, not so much that he would do something against his orders, after all, he also had to consider his own safety.
Then there is an explanation, is the Japanese killed Nojiri, to a planted, “dog team” is gone, Nojiri is not much value, waste use.
This “thieves shouting to catch thieves” technique, the Japanese is a repeat offender, all the time to provoke disputes, they have done so, blatant outrageous.
“Chief, will this case end up in our hands?” Xu Qinghe was a little worried, after all, they had had contact with this Nojiri before this.
“Right now the case is still unclear, if it’s an ordinary criminal case, then it has nothing to do with us.” Cheng Mo said.
“Oh.” Xu Qinghe nodded.
“Alright, just one dead Japanese, see how scared you are, what does it have to do with us?” Cheng Mo waved his hand, “Hurry up and do your own work.”
With Cheng Mo’s words, Xu Qinghe’s heart is very stable, and then he went to work on his own business.
Cheng Mo lit a cigarette and smoked two puffs, suddenly the phone on the table rang, he hurriedly extinguished the cigarette and picked up the phone receiver, “Hello, Old Gates Constabulary Political Unit.”
“Yes, sir, I’ll be right there.” The call was actually from the Central Arrest House, a call from the Political Unit Inspector, Mr. Laobosheng, asking him to make a trip there at the first opportunity.
Cheng Mo called Lu Le and drove to the Central Arresting Room.
In Lawbson’s office, Cheng Mo also met his old boss, Pryde, and the two seemed to be waiting for him as if they were waiting for him.
“Have you heard about the Ping Wang Street case?” Laubson asked directly to the point.
“As soon as I arrived at the arrest room in the morning, I heard the report from the people below, saying that a Japanese died.” Cheng Mo could only answer cautiously as he couldn’t figure out the purpose of Lawbson’s search for him.
“There is a problem with the identity of this Japanese.”
“Problematic, what’s the problem?” Cheng Mo directly played dumb, Nojiri’s identity, if he wasn’t a traveler, he would probably find it hard to find out.
“He is an intelligence agent.”
“Intelligence agent?” Cheng Mo’s expression remained surprised.
“Cheng, do you know about the Tongyuan foreign bank in the Hartung building?” Pryde snapped.
“I’ve heard of it, it seems to be a company that does foreign trade, why?” Cheng Mo nodded, still putting on an expression of not understanding.
“The actual controller of Tong Yuan Foreign Bank is former Japanese Army veteran and senior member of the Black Dragon Society, Inoue Nikiaki.” Pryde explained, “What does the Black Dragon Society do, Cheng, there’s no need for me to explain it to you again.”
“No need, although the Black Dragon Society is a civilian gangster organization in Japan, it in turn has extremely deep ties with the Japanese government’s military and political circles, and their activities in China are mainly focused on intelligence gathering and smuggling and trafficking of tobacco and contraband.” Cheng Mo said.
“Tongyuan Foreign Bank is ostensibly a trading company, but in fact it engages in smuggling as well as intelligence gathering and terrorist activities behind its back.” Pryde shrugged and said with a show of hands, “We’ve been keeping an eye on this foreign bank, but we haven’t caught any substantial evidence so far, and it’s not good to take action against it.”
Cheng Mo realized that the British knew what Tong Yuan Foreign Bank was doing, but they did not want to do anything about it.
