Chapter 203 Police Chief Qiao Shuxin
Twenty minutes later, Chen Yan squatted in front of the bearded man and wiped the blood off his face.
"Brother, tell me, are you just looking for a beating for nothing?
You are quite old, but you still don't understand things.
Jianghu is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships.
Why do you have to make things difficult for me?"
At this time, the bearded man was beaten black and blue, and his right arm was removed by Li San. He could only support his body with his left shoulder. Because of the insult by Chen Yan, his chest heaved with anger, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.
Since you can't win the fight, you can only let others do the killing.
"You bastard, I'm from the Green Gang's Master Huang. Kill me if you can."
Chen Yan shook his head and said faintly: "Why can't you understand what people say? Is your brain full of muscle or have you eaten too much starch? You are so stupid!
What difference would it make if I killed you? I won't gain any weight.
However, babies will be punished if they make mistakes.
For your rude behavior today, I think the money for these weapons will be confiscated, and you can take care of yourself."
Chen Yan strode out quickly, and the soldiers behind him began to move things out, leaving behind only the howling of ghosts and the resentful look of the bearded man in the room.
On the other side, Li Hong, who worked at the Shanghai Underground Party’s secret liaison station, was lying on the bed flipping through a notebook.
Wang Hu walked in with a man in black. Even though it was dark, the man still tried his best to cover his face with his collar.
"Team Leader Li, Comrade Qiao Shuxin is here."
Li Hong took off her glasses and said peacefully, “Shu Xin is here, please sit down.
Thank you for your hard work. The Four Seasons Bookstore was closed recently, so you had to run to such a far place in the suburbs."
The man in black took off his coat, revealing a very familiar face: it was the police chief who had been on the bank of the Huangpu River that morning.
"Sister, what are you talking about? What do you mean by hard work?
By the way, what happened to Four Seasons Bookstore? Why did No. 76 target it?
Hearing this, Li Hong's pupils darkened again, but soon returned to calm.
"Well, there must be an internal problem. I'm checking it out."
Qiao Shuxin looked at Li Hong, who seemed to be thinking about something, and stopped asking questions. He pulled over a chair, supported his thighs with both hands, and said after hesitating for a moment:
"Sister, this time I contacted the organization urgently because I have something important to report to you."
Li Hong sorted out her thoughts, nodded, looked at him and said, "What's the important matter? Tell me."
“Sister, I feel like the atmosphere in Shanghai is not right recently. It seems like an unprecedented force has emerged, but we don’t know if it’s a friend or an enemy.
This morning, our police station received a case of a female corpse in the Huangpu River. The woman was of a noble family, but all her valuables were still on her body, so it was not a robbery in the ordinary sense. Although she was beaten before her death, the cause of death was drowning. From this point of view, it seems like a gang method, but I think it is not that simple.
Because the woman had calluses on her knuckles, she must be an expert with a gun.
To sum up, a woman with a high social status who is also good at handling guns is rare in Shanghai."
Li Hong listened very carefully, but it was still unclear. She looked at Qiao Shuxin with some confusion.
"Tree Heart, what do you want to say?"
"Sister, our police station received a missing person notice No. 76 today. I looked at the photo above and I am sure that the female corpse is the woman in the photo.
The deceased is Yang Mei, a female agent of Unit 76."
At this moment, a trace of heat flashed in Li Hong's eyes, "Is it her? Code name Jasmine, she was killed by someone, is the information accurate!"
"One hundred percent accurate," Qiao Shuxin let out a long sigh and continued, "Moli is our old rival, and this female devil deserves what she got. However, it is not clear which force did it. I think it must be a new friend from Shanghai."
new friend?
Thinking of this, Li Hong's heart skipped a beat.
This kid couldn't have done it.
Although Li Hong thought this possibility was not high, after all, Chen Yan had just arrived in Shanghai not long ago, how could he have a conflict with Jasmine? However, she felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart.
She recalled the look and expression on Chen Yan's face when he swore in front of her at the latest, "What's wrong with robbing? If pushed to that point, I dare not even touch the Japanese Navy Special Marine Corps Headquarters," and she found that her heart skipped a beat.
Not long after, she noticed her right eyelid starting to twitch, and although she tried her best to control it, it was of no use.
"This guy is really hard to figure out," Li Hong thought to herself, and blurted out this sentence, which aroused the curiosity of Qiao Shuxin who was standing next to her.
"Sister, who are you talking about?"
"Ah, no one," Li Hong realized that she had made a slip of the tongue.
Obviously, Chen Yan's identity is top secret and cannot be known to too many people.
"Shuxin, since you are handling this case, then find a way to suppress it. No matter whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, getting rid of Jasmine is a good thing. Just consider it as helping them."
At this time, Li Hong was thinking that if it was Chen Yan who did it, she must not let No. 76 find any clues on the body and must deal with it quickly to prevent endless trouble.
"I understand, sister. I will have someone close the case tomorrow, and this matter will be forgotten."
"By the way, Shuxin, there is one more thing I would like you to pay attention to.
The organization wants to build some military equipment production lines and asked us to collect relevant clues and information. This matter is of great importance, you must take it seriously."
"Military production line?" Qiao Shuxin frowned, his eyes filled with confusion and anxiety, extremely complicated.
"Sister, it might be too difficult to do this in Shanghai."
Li Hong tried her best to put on an official smile and said, "We must complete the tasks assigned by our superiors without compromise.
Moreover, we are only responsible for collecting intelligence in this mission, and we must ensure the success of the mission without exposing our identities."
"I will absolutely obey the organization's arrangements," Qiao Shuxin looked at Li Hong, "Sister, it's getting late, I'll go back first. If I stay out for too long and get discovered, it will be difficult to explain."
After returning from the liaison station, Qiao Shuxin went straight home.
Although it was late at night, the lights in the house were still on for him, and he smiled with relief.
He has been engaged in underground work for more than five years, hiding in the police station. He feels uncomfortable wearing this leather suit every day, but this is the pressure and helplessness that frontline workers have to bear. Fortunately, his family gave him the greatest comfort.
He dragged his tired body and opened the door. The house was not big, and what caught his eye was the food on the table.
He hung the key on the wall out of habit, took off his leather shoes and coat, and said:
"Sister, I'm back."
"Shuxin is back. Wait a moment, I'll heat up some food for you."
A familiar and gentle voice came from the inner room. Although no one was seen, one could infer from the voice that this was a virtuous, hardworking woman.
