Lost and Spy

Chapter 1758 Gorgeous Strange Case
It was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon when I returned to my office from the US consulate.

Young Master Meng was really exhausted.

Fighting against Sophia last night, the physical strength was almost exhausted.

Just now, I had lunch with Bonannu again.

This back and forth, just one word:

tired!
Wu Jingyi happened to be in his office.

Thinking of sister Jingyi's ten yuan, Young Master Meng couldn't help but shudder.

Wu Jingyi was looking at a file there.

When he saw Young Master Meng coming in, he first said hello.

How could she have imagined that in the mind of Young Master Meng at this time, all he was thinking about was how to pass the level at night:
"I just saw the report sent by my subordinates. There is a case that you may be interested in."

"What case?"

Meng Shaoyuan was really not interested at all.

It's okay to change to the past, but now?

It's too late to deal with such a big mess in front of me.

"From Huamei Pharmacy."

"Huamei Pharmacy?"

Meng Shaoyuan was taken aback.

Huamei Pharmacy is located at the intersection of Fuzhou Road and Shanxi Road in Shanghai. Its appearance is not grand, but the owner of the store, Xu Xiangru, is the chairman of the New Drug Industry Association and one of the best giants in the Western pharmaceutical industry.

Xu Xiangru lives in Pushi Road, and has two daughters and two sons.

The eldest daughter is more honest, unmarried, and takes care of the housework for her father at home.The second daughter, Xu Jihua, studied medicine in Germany and obtained a doctorate. With the support of her father, she opened a Jihua Hospital on Julaida Road.

The eldest son, Xu Jiming, graduated from the Sino-French School of Pharmacy and is married. He helps his father manage the business in the pharmacy, and he is quite able to guard the business.The second son, Xu Jigao, is twenty years old and is still studying in Nanyang Middle School.

Xu Xiangru, the owner of the pharmacy, and Meng Shaoyuan knew each other.

When the Anti-Japanese War just broke out, he also donated medicines to the national army together with the New Medicines Association.

At this time, when he heard that it was related to Xu Xiangru, Meng Shaoyuan became somewhat interested: "What's the matter?"

"A murder caused by a woman."

"woman?"

"Yeah, isn't it your favourite?"

Uh?
Young Master Meng couldn't even say a word.

Xu Jigao is unmarried but has the hakama habits of rich children, indulges in dance pavilions, and has a hot fight with Chen Ying, a dancer in the Xinhua Ballroom, and wants to marry her for the sake of eternal love.

Chen Ying knew that Xu was the owner of Xu Jigao's Huamei Pharmacy, with a huge family fortune, and she frequently asked Xu Jigao for buying this and that.

Xu Jigao is still studying and depends on his family financially. However, in order to win Chen Ying's favor and fulfill his marriage contract, he had to ask his family for money repeatedly.

Xu Xiangru was nearly sixty years old, and although he was still in charge of the pharmacy, his eldest son was responsible for the management of the money.Xu Jigao asked Mr. Qian to reach out to his elder brother who was in charge of the economy, so there was unavoidable quarrel between the brothers from time to time.

On the evening of July 1941, 7, Xu Jigao asked his elder brother for money again.Because Xu Jiming asked for more and more money recently, and the amount was getting bigger and bigger, he questioned the purpose of it.

Xu Jigao had no choice but to tell the truth, hoping to get the sympathy of his elder brother.Unexpectedly, Xu Jiming was furious when he heard this, and said that he could not marry a dancer if he wanted to get married, which would damage the Xu family's dignity, so there was a big conflict between the brothers.

On a whim, Xu Jigao saw a small ax in the corner, and without thinking about the consequences, he picked it up and chopped off his elder brother's head.

Xu Jiming was injured and fell to the ground, bleeding profusely, unconscious.Seeing this, the members of Xu's family hurriedly sent Xu Jiming to Jihua Hospital on Julaida Road.

Xu Jiming finally died.

It is reasonable to send Xu Jiming's body to the funeral home, but his scars are obvious, and the funeral home is managed by the police station. If the corpse is found to be suspicious, it must be reported, which will inevitably lead to trouble.

After discussing with relatives and friends, Xu's family decided to send the body to the coroner's office of Tong Ren Fu Yuan Tang in the French Concession.

It was a non-governmental charity organization supervised by the authorities of the French Concession. It often collected beggars who died on the road and buried them in coffins. If any accident happened, it would be reported to the government for inspection.

After the Xu family sent Xu Jiming's body, they were afraid that the murderer would be found to be fatal due to his injuries, so they bought the staff of the Tong Ren Fu Yuan Tang with money to replace the body of a beggar who died of illness.

The result of the forensic medical examination was, of course, that "the death was due to illness and there was no other reason", and the body had been coffined by the family furniture.

Although the Xu family strictly kept this matter a secret, no one except close relatives and friends knew that such a catastrophic event had happened.

But there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and a chef of Xu's family disclosed this matter to the dog-legged pockmarked Sanguang pockmarked by the police in the French Concession.

Bao inquired that this was a good opportunity for extortion, and there was a lot of money to be made. In order to capture the evidence of Xu's family, he first brought forward Xu Jiming's coffin that was left in the funeral parlor, and then arrested Xu Jigao and Xu Jihua in the arrest room. .

Xu Xiangru panicked, so he approached Geng Jiaji, the secretary of the Shanghai Special Municipal Government before the Anti-Japanese War, who had fallen into the water and become a traitor, and asked him to go through the network of Qiao Shiban, the French chief of the police station in the French Concession.

Geng Jiaji was born in France as a student. When Wu Tiecheng was the mayor of SH, he often represented the municipal government in dealing with the French Concession Board of Directors.

But Qiao Shiban is an old fox, he is afraid that people's lives will be at stake, and he can't get away if things get serious in the future, so he only agrees to release Xu Jihua on bail, and the murderer Xu Jigao is still in custody.

Unwilling to take more responsibility, Qiao Shiban sent Xu Jiming's coffin, which he brought from the funeral parlor, to the Terrasto Road Autopsy Office, where it was confirmed by the forensic medical examination that he died of injuries.

So he sent the autopsy list together with Xu Jigao to the Court of the Second Special Zone of Shanghai, and let it go.

"Good guy, my brother killed my brother."

Meng Shaoyuan shook his head repeatedly when he heard this: "Just for a dancer? Huh? The brothers of the Xu family killed each other, what's my business? Do I want to do things for them? Give me money, and I can do anything if I give enough money."

"You only have money in your eyes?" Wu Jingyi gave him a supercilious look: "Wang Jingwei and Li Shiqun are all implicated in this case?"

"what?"

Meng Shaoyuan regained his energy when he heard it: "Tell me quickly."

Xu Xiangru had to spend money desperately, trying to keep Xu Jigao in order to continue the Xu family's incense, so he went to the court of the Second Special Zone of Shanghai.

At this moment, the hands of some newspaper reporters also intervened.

Xu Xiangru is a wealthy family in the western medicine industry. Such a turmoil in his family is related to the fate of his life. For some reporters who specialize in blackmail, it is really a dream object.

These reporters usually communicated closely with Bao inquired from the patrol room and Sanguang Pocky under Bao inquired, so not only did more and more people go to Xu Xiangsu later, but their appetites also grew.

Even those who received less money in the past asked to make up for it.

Xu Xiangru was overwhelmed by these coming and going, big and small journalists, how could she do other things?
He entrusted a reporter from Shenbao to take care of the matter.

Since this reporter dared to arrange it, of course he had some backing.

After he was entrusted, he ate his fill first, and then broke off the crab legs to share the spoils one by one.

To get people's money and eliminate disasters for others, each report did not publish a word at the beginning.

But, immediately, things got serious.

As a result, the Judicial Yuan of the Wang puppet government, Li Shiqun, and Wang Jingwei were all involved.

And at this point, no one can imagine what direction this matter will develop!
(What, I haven’t erupted for a long time. Tomorrow is the last day of July. Well, at least three chapters are guaranteed. Try to strive for five chapters to erupt!)
