Chapter 224.

Kenji Soihara announced that he would personally visit the Tang residence to offer condolences to his late friend Mr. Tang Shaochuan, who had been assassinated.

This news announcement moved the already raging court of public opinion towards even more sinister complexity; Tang Shaochuan’s defection to Japan in the front, and the assassination by the military junta in the back.

This seemed to be an established fact.

Even though the KMT’s declared forces remaining in the rented area were the first to refute the clarification published in the newspaper that no agreement had been reached at the secret meeting between Kenji Tofihara and Tang Shaochuan.

But no one believed it anymore.

What’s more, that good son-in-law, was even more ambiguous in the press interviews, trying to cover it up, which further aggravated the speculations of the outside world.

And Tang Shaochuan’s family had all moved to Hong Kong, and there were no other relatives around, so after he was assassinated, there was no one at all to stand up and speak for him.

In this way, there was a lot of confusion.

The news of the great victory at Wanjialing came.

The country was once again invigorated. The war of resistance entered its second year, and although the country kept losing its territory, the resistance of the country never stopped.

Although defeats continued, there were also great victories like Taierzhuang, Pingxingguan, and Wanjialing, which at least conveyed a glimmer of hope amidst the pessimism and disappointment.

Chiyoko obviously didn’t know Cheng Mo’s identity yet, but she could tell that she had come to Cheng Mo’s house as a guest with a mission.

This could be seen in her tangled eyes.

Cheng Mo was also helpless, wondering why she had come to Shanghai, was it bad to stay in Japan? Nakamura Gong would definitely not tell her his identity, one more person knows, one more danger, not to mention that Chiyoko is just a newcomer, the cruelty of underground work she does not yet understand.

Tang Shaochuan’s case was investigated by the French Concession’s Beidang Road Constabulary, and news came from Wu Erge that the case was hung up.

The scene in addition to the broken porcelain vase of the Song Dynasty, the murder weapon and so on have not been found, as well as the antique dealer is also a false name.

Of course, the one who introduced the antique dealer to Tang Shaochuan was a late son or nephew of his, and this person disappeared after the incident.

Obviously, this person knows, at least can be recognized as an accomplice.

But the identity of this person is not a member of the “Blue Coat Society”, this can not rely on subjective speculation to judge.

Cheng Mo of course knows, this person called Xie Zhi Pan is the military intelligence, this sanction later many people have written articles to analyze.

It was not until later that the old man’s diary was declassified that the truth came out, and it was said that the assassination plan was made without authorization by the Junta Shanghai Special Administrative Region in order to claim credit.

Just ask, what kind of person is Dai Yunong, his subordinates unauthorized action, such a person he can tolerate, and after the incident was promoted to major general?

The Junta is all about loyalty.

Wang Miao participated in a card game, and specially asked Lu Liankui to call Cheng Mo.

“Mr. Cheng, you’ve heard about the case of Shaolao, what do you think?” Wang Miao sat in Cheng Mo’s upper house, played a card and casually asked.

“What does brother Wang want to hear?”

“Nothing, casual conversation, do you think the Junta did it?” Wang Miao asked.

“Brother Wang is in an important position in the state government, he is better informed than me, do you still need to ask me about this?” Cheng Mo hemmed and hawed, what kind of person are you, Wang Miao, am I still not clear? Although the Central Committee and the Army have never dealt with each other, your intelligence system isn’t bad either.

“What important position, just a piece of trash, seeing that the war is not to be done, they left us rootless people behind, and ran away by themselves, did they care about our deaths or lives?” Wang Miao complained. Cheng Mo smiled without saying anything.

They are all selfish people who sell out the country and the nation for their own selfishness and give themselves a bunch of reasons.

Ridiculous to the extreme.

“Cheng old brother, this Japanese ship is strong and artillery, this continues to fight, I’m afraid that the country will die, since they all want to talk, this put a good peace do not want, what do they want?” Wang Miao said, “Want the people to suffer and starve?”

“A great man can not live in the world, brother Wang, dignity is all fought out, what others give, at any time may take back.”

“Then Goujian still has lying down to taste the gall, Han Xin did not also endure the crotch humiliation?” Wang Miao said, “A great man can bend and stretch, there is no chance of revenge in the future?”

“That’s true, I just don’t know, if others will give you this chance.” Cheng Mo hemmed and hawed and played a card, “East wind, who wants it?”

“Touch!” Lu Liankui shouted, and after touching a circle of cards, he flipped it over again, “Open Kung!”

“Hu!”

“Old Lu has a great hand today, he’s won several times in a row!”

“Oh, I’m sorry, I’m sorry ……,” Lu Liankui was overjoyed, and after the hu, he rushed the three of them to cupped his fists and said.

“Cheng old brother, you in the patrol room political unit, is not in charge of news censorship in this area?”

“No, I don’t care about news censorship, movie censorship can talk about it.” Cheng Mo hemmed and hawed, this Wang Miao deliberately approached himself, obviously with a purpose, but he didn’t want to give the other party this opportunity.

“Movie censorship ah ……,” Wang Miao elongated his voice, obviously not very useful to him.

“Although Cheng old brother does not care about news censorship, but he is the political unit has a lot of power of speech, we in the Chinese arrest, in addition to Inspector Tan, it is Cheng old brother.” Lu Liankui was busy looking for a complement.

“How can I compare to Inspector Tan, he is an old-timer, highly respected, I just came to the Political Unit less than a year ago, many things still need to learn more.”

“Elder brother Cheng is modest, who doesn’t know about your relationship with Old Pu up and down the Political Unit, it’s Mr. Tony, who is also immensely appreciative and respectful of you.”

“Where, where, Lu man, you have flattered me too much.”

“I’ve heard that this Communist Party is rampant in the Concession, they are provoking the people and inciting violence, don’t you inspectorates care?” Wang Miao suddenly said, “Manage, of course, to manage, but how to manage, how to manage, this is not a small deputy inspector I can make the decision.” Cheng Mo directly soft-topped back.

“I have received some information that there are communist elements within this Damei Evening News, or even that this Damei Evening News has been secretly controlled by the communists.”

“Where did Brother Wang get this information?” Cheng Mo asked rhetorically, it’s this time of the year, Wang Miao still wants to borrow the hands of the Concession Patrol Office to deal with the Communists, who is he doing this for?

“A friend told me.”

“If Brother Wang is intending to report to the Patrol Office, we can accept it and investigate and deal with what should be investigated and dealt with, if not, don’t talk nonsense about this kind of credulity, the Great American Evening News is a newspaper run by Americans, are you trying to get me to check on the Americans?” Cheng Mo said seriously.

“No, no, I don’t mean that, Elder Brother Cheng misunderstood, I just think that this Great American Evening News always publishes some anachronistic articles every now and then, promoting hatred as well as reporting some untrue news, which can easily mislead the public and cause extremely bad social impacts, affecting the social stability of the Concession!” Wang Miao hurriedly explained.

“We will investigate this, Brother Wang’s identity, one has to be suspicious, what is your purpose in doing this?”

“Well, well, brother Wang, Cheng old brother, play cards, play cards, only talk about the wind and moon, do not talk about the affairs of the country …… ” Lu Liankui quickly rounded up the scene.
