The spy career of a surgeon

Chapter 229 Assassination

“It’s time to admit defeat.”

Zhou Qinghe looked at the documents and frowned slightly. He had to admire Sassoon's decisiveness in this matter. After all, he was a businessman, thick-skinned, and like a gecko, he broke his arm to survive. Otherwise, after the wedding, Zhou Qinghe would be ready to launch a joint attack on him.

It's not difficult, whether it's import and export or real estate, as long as you deal with people, the former can make the military police make him suffer, and the latter can make the Youth Gang come and cause trouble.

If you want to rent out a house, you have to see if anyone dares to rent it, right?

Now that Sassoon is decisive, Zhou Qinghe should not act in a hurry, otherwise if the news spreads, if protection money is not provided after paying the protection fee, others will not pay.

Then let him wait for two days, cut his flesh with a dull knife, and sooner or later he will spit out the money he earned.

"What is it?" Yasuda Chiba was curious.

"Chinachem Hotel." Zhou Qinghe handed over the document with a smile.

"what?"

Giving gifts to Chinachem Hotel was obviously not in Yasuda Chiba's mind. Who would give gifts to the iconic building on the Bund? I just felt that I didn't understand.

When she took it and took a look, she realized that it was actually true.

"Chinachem Hotel? Is that what he gave it to you?"

Yasuda Chiba was extremely surprised, "Why?"

"Of course it's because I want more."

"Then I understand." Yasuda Chiba nodded in approval. Born in a business family, this is easy to understand.

"Fujita-kun, you are so awesome."

Then I became excited. This gift was really interesting to open.

"I'll take it apart, let me take it apart, let me see what else is there."

The next day, Zhou Qinghe was on vacation.

The Gendarmerie Headquarters really had nothing to do with him recently, so he needed a vacation to recuperate.

After the wedding, all the Yasuda family members were sent away, and all the personnel and finance of the Chinachem Hotel had to be replaced.

Originally, Chinachem Hotel was outsourced by Sassoon to a subsidiary of its own company. Now all the senior management of Sassoon and Co. have been kicked out of the team. People from Yasuda Club are helping with the transition in the financial department, and then the club under the name of Red Rose is finally Take over to complete the handover.

Middle-level and hotel service staff who don’t want to leave can stay and the hotel will operate as usual.

Money is constantly rolling into Zhou Qinghe's pocket. The most important thing is that the shortage of personnel provides an opportunity to recruit people and arrange for his own people to be stationed.

From then on, the handover of information can be carried out very conveniently at the Chinachem Hotel. Zhou Qing and his own property have a great place on the top floor overlooking the beautiful scenery of the Bund, so frequent visits have become normal.

In the penthouse suite, Liu Kai reported.

"It went well to find out about Zhang Fayao. This man is so famous in old Shanghai. He is a master of eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling and smoking. He has been a playboy since he was a child.

I heard from the old man that Zhang Xiaolin couldn't bear it at that time, so he sent him to Germany, but he was still like this after he came back, and it got worse.

Zhang Xiaolin arranged for him to go to the police station, but he felt that he was too bad and stopped working after two days. Du Yuesheng arranged for him to go to the bank to be idle, and he quit after working for two days. One of his famous sayings is, this kind of It's a waste of my time. "

"The mood is quite high." Zhou Qinghe smiled.

"Yes, I heard that this man went to Nanjing later, and it seemed that he was going to be an official. He was very happy before he went. He held a banquet, and even Sister Yao knew about it. The news spread all over Shanghai, but I don't know why, but he didn't I worked for a few days and then came back.”

"Is there such a thing?" Zhou Qinghe was slightly surprised. It might be Du Yuesheng or Zhang Xiaolin who tried hard on the leader: "The principal doesn't like this kind of people. He probably arranged some kind of idle position, which is not suitable for this person." It’s what the young master expected.”

Liu Kai pursed his lips and nodded: "That's what I guessed too. Do I need to verify it?"

"Forget it, it's not necessary."

A rich man, a pure playboy, as long as his main goal is to get started.

"My personality sounds very public and high-spirited. I don't have a good father-son relationship with Zhang Xiaolin, so it shouldn't be difficult to do it. Are there any opportunities that I can take advantage of?"

"Zhang Xiaolin sent eight bodyguards to protect him when he went out today. It should become a routine situation, but I found out that he has a hobby, which is very special. He likes fishing."

"Fishing?" Zhou Qinghe raised his eyebrows. This hobby is quite special for a young man.

But this hobby is very good. Whether it is a river or a lake, it is useless to have a hundred bodyguards surrounding it.

"Good fishing, execute."

"Yes, but I don't know if Zhang Xiaolin will let him go fishing."

Liu Kai was worried that given Zhang Xiaolin's sophistication, this kind of thing should not be allowed under the current situation.

"Do you think he is someone who would listen to Zhang Xiaolin?" Zhou Qinghe sneered.

"Same. Killed or seriously injured?"

"Seriously injured." Zhou Qinghe thought about it for a moment. Zhang Xiaolin only has a biological son. If his biological son dies, Zhang Xiaolin will only act more unscrupulously. The power of the Youth Gang in his hands is so strong that it drives him crazy. It will not be of any use to the future anti-Japanese force. Good thing.

"You still have to think more about others. It's better to warn them than to drive them crazy."

"clear."

"How is the check on the list of traitors I gave you?" Zhou Qinghe asked.

Zhang Xiaolin is still useful and can be kept, but other traitors must make achievements as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no explanation for Chongqing, and the principal will scold him.

"Time is tight. Jiang Wen and I picked out the most likely big businessman and checked it out. It was confirmed without a doubt that he is a hardcore traitor."

Liu Kai took out a newspaper from his arms. On it was an older man with a round face and a rich appearance.

"Gu Lugui."

Zhou Qinghe recognized the man in the photo at a glance. He was the rice king of Shanghai.

Everyone knows how important food is to the war. Zhou Qinghe has not only seen this person's information in newspapers, but also in the database of the former Shanghai Station of the Secret Service, and it was also mentioned in the Japanese army's intelligence.

It can be said that as long as he is a high-level military and government official in Shanghai, everyone knows about this person.

Coincidentally, in Shanghai when the Chinese government was in power, the Secret Service did not investigate this person, and the Japanese military intelligence contained very little information about this person.

This is intriguing.

The Secret Service did not conduct any investigation on this person at that time. There was only one explanation, that he was someone with a deep background or even an official.

"Are you sure he's a traitor?"

The Japanese did not investigate him, which was unreasonable. This was also an important reason why Zhou Qinghe put this person on the first batch of investigation lists.

Liu Kai nodded: "Yes, although Jiang Wen and I cannot conduct an in-depth investigation into his personality, there is one thing that makes us feel that the reason is quite sufficient."

"explain."

"Since the Songhu War, his large grain warehouse has never been bombed or robbed."

"This evidence is sufficient."

Zhou Qinghe snorted coldly: "Even Zhang Xiaolin's garden was bombed, but his granary was spared by the Japanese. Why? No need to investigate. Find an opportunity to kill him. Wait."

Zhou Qinghe remembered something: "I saw this person at the wedding. I was with the commercial counselor of the consulate. They should have been discussing the maintenance of the council. What positions this person might have."

Zhou Qinghe thought for a while and said: "Let go of his affairs first and send two people to keep an eye on it. When the maintenance meeting is established, the Japanese side will definitely publish a newspaper to publicize it. After it is published in the newspaper, they will take his life." !”

Since we are going to do it, we must achieve the best effect and kill one person to serve as a warning to others.

"understood."

"Go and deal with Zhang Fayao first."

"Yes."

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. Zhang Fayao may not have returned to Shanghai for a long time. The freshness of his new arrival in Shanghai has not yet worn off. He has been playing in the concession, so much so that he has forgotten his lifelong career of fishing.

As for the Maintenance Committee, Japan is anxious for economic recovery, so in just two days, the structure of the entire Maintenance Committee and the list of personnel holding positions came out.

In the hotel, Zhou Qinghe found Liu Kai.

"It's settled. The consulate has chosen Gu Lugui as the president of the maintenance committee. Of course, the name is not the maintenance committee, but the SH Citizens Association. Gu Lugui is the chairman. There will be a press conference tomorrow and it will be announced to the public. It will be at the city hall at one o'clock in the afternoon. held.”

"He is the chairman? The Japanese trust him so much?" Liu Kai was surprised.

"Well, this bastard has done all kinds of bad things."

Zhou Qinghe went through the information in the past two days and got more information. "In the 23rd year of the Republic of China, the principal was worried about food security, so he held a national food conference in Nanchang, instructing the Executive Yuan to establish the National Grain Bureau, and established a seven-provincial grain bureau in Shanghai. Transportation and Marketing Bureau, he was a rice industry tycoon, so he was put in charge.

In the 25th year of the Republic of China, the Japanese military set up a grain purchasing society in Pudong to provide rations for the war. In order to avoid arousing suspicion among the Chinese, it entrusted Gu Lugui's rice bank to purchase the grains on its behalf.

This Gu Lugui has been working for the Japanese since at least that time. "

It is impossible to say that you don’t know the identity of the Japanese person opposite you.

Gu Lugui is the boss and may not be involved in the specific business, but Mihang suddenly has so many orders, even a fool can detect something fishy.

What's more, such a large amount of food will have to be shipped overseas.

It can only be said that at that time, even if Gu Lugui was not working as a dog for the Japanese, he was still trying to make more money, so he simply ignored it.

"Stooge! The Chinese people don't have enough to eat, so they sell rice to Japan." Liu Kai yelled and cursed: "Kill him, and tomorrow next year will be his death!"

"Kill! Let's do it tomorrow."

Zhou Qing and Li Lifeng were present, and with so many reporters present, once Gu Lugui was killed, the news of his death would definitely spread throughout Shanghai.

What they wanted was a sensation, and what they wanted was to give the traitors a blow in the head at the juncture when the Japanese established the Maintenance Council.

Liu Kai naturally had no objection, but the time that followed was very tight. Tomorrow was the press conference, and the entire plan took less than one day from planning to action.

The two took out the map and spread it on the table.

"The location of the action must be at or near the venue, so that reporters can easily take pictures. However, Section Chief, you said that many Japanese military police will be present. It may be difficult for us to find an opportunity to take action. How many military police are there specifically?"

"An additional team of forty people will be sent. In addition to the mayor's eight military policemen, I don't know if they have their own bodyguards. Even if these people are not included, at least forty-eight Japanese military policemen will be present.

This is only external. Internally, there will be high-level officials present, from the consulate and the military police headquarters, and they will also have guns. "

"It's very difficult." Liu Kai frowned and thought.

Not to mention that none of these people would get out of the car for no reason. The car must have driven directly into the city hall. Except for the time to get off the car, in fact, it can be said that there was no chance at all.

Even if he succeeds in killing him, it is impossible to escape from so many Japanese military police. Think about being chased by 50 Japanese military police. How can you escape?

It is difficult to sneak in, and it is also difficult to escape.

Or you have to drive in, rush to the venue with a bomb, and blow yourself up.

Of course this is just a thought.

"I'll go check around the venue first to see if there are any high-rise buildings that can be sniped from a distance." Liu Kai suggested: "I will work with Jiang Wen again. She has strong mobility and may find an opportunity to strike. "

"No need, it's not as complicated as you think. I'll tell you how to do it."

Zhou Qinghe nodded at the city government, looked at him and said, "Don't be too limited in your thinking.

There will be gendarmes to protect the safety of the venue tomorrow, and the eight people who are already in the city hall to protect the mayor usually do not leave the mayor's side. This illustrates a problem, that is, tonight, there will not be a single gendarme in the city hall.

The best opportunity to infiltrate is today. Entering today directly avoids the possibility of military police interrogating documents tomorrow. Is the first step solved? "

Liu Kai suddenly understood and felt his mind was opened: "Yes, it will definitely be safe to sneak in today, what next?"

"The next step is to lurk. Sneaking in late at night will not be a problem during the transition to daytime. You can just find an office and hide there. Is that okay with you?"

"That's definitely no problem."

"Okay, the next step is to come out during the day. The time from day to one in the afternoon is the most difficult because there are so many people coming and going.

But there are loopholes that can be exploited.

The city government was established not long ago, and many people don't know each other at all. You can avoid them if you can. Even if you can't avoid them, even if you meet them face to face, as long as you don't panic, others won't think there's anything wrong with you, or even if you order them to do something. Anything is okay.

Of course, try to do this kind of thing as little as possible.

The main thing is to avoid.

Toilets, utility rooms, rooftops, etc.

It won't take long, even if there are a lot of people there at 11 o'clock in the morning, by o'clock at noon, most people are ready to eat, there are still people setting up the venue, and even people who maintain the meeting have already arrived.

At that time, it was so chaotic that people were coming and going, and it was hard to tell which ones were from outside and which ones were from the municipal government. At this time, it was actually very safe.

Next, everyone's eyes will be on the press conference. You can just stroll around. "

Liu Kai nodded. He should be more courageous in this matter.

"The next thing is the key point. The target of the attack is Gu Lugui. He will definitely drive here. The car will be parked in the city hall and there will definitely be a driver."

"Yes."

"The driver may follow Gu Lugui in. It depends on whether the driver is also a part-time bodyguard. He usually follows him. If he doesn't, it doesn't matter.

Work in pairs, bring explosives, lure the driver away, put the explosives in the car, wait for Gu Lugui to return to the parking lot after the meeting, get in the car, bang~"

"Ouch~" Liu Kai nodded, understanding everything.

Zhou Qinghe was still saying: "There will be chaos by then. Everyone is looking at the parking lot. You can take the opportunity to leave quietly. Of course, if the action proceeds quickly, you can also put the bomb and leave early."

"I understand, I understand." Liu Kai nodded frequently: "The section chief's clever move will make everything foolproof, but there is still one problem."

Liu Kai smiled: "For example, how to lure the driver away?"

It sounds simple, but if the driver doesn’t get out of the car, how can he divert them away? It may not be successful.

Zhou Qinghe smiled slightly: "It's not difficult. As long as the person asking the driver to get out of the car is Japanese, or even a military policeman, how dare he not get out of the car? Just two IDs will do. If not, you can wear a Japanese military uniform inside."

"I'll arrange it right away." Liu Kai had no doubts.

The next day, the city government's press conference was held with a high profile.

This conference is related to Shanghai's economic strategy, and according to the list of personnel that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs intends to disclose to the media in advance, the people participating in this maintenance conference are all Shanghai's business tycoons.

As a result, reporters from all over the world were able to come. Every country was concerned about Shanghai's economy, and so many people entered the city government.

The reporter group received the invitation letter in advance and successfully entered the city hall area after being inspected by the gendarmerie at the gate of the city hall.

A car parked in a special parking lot, and reporters and businessmen who got off the car walked into the venue.

The press conference began immediately.

The Military Police Headquarters and the Japanese Consulate attached great importance to this conference, and more than a dozen people of all sizes came to the conference.

First the big shot spoke, and then the list of SH Citizen Association was officially announced.

"Mr. Gu Lugui Gu serves as the chairman of the SH Citizens Association. Mr. Gu is invited to come to the stage to deliver a speech. Everyone welcomes it."

Gu Lugui came to the stage with a glowing face and delivered his acceptance speech.

The process went on in an orderly manner, and reporters asked questions about future developments. The entire meeting lasted for two and a half hours before it ended.

Regarding the overall smoothness of today, the elected people are very satisfied, Su Xiyun is very satisfied, the Military Police Headquarters is very satisfied, and the consulate is also very satisfied.

Until Gu Lugui and other elected people, at the invitation of the Japanese, got together and went out for dinner.

When Gu Lugui opened his car door, boom!

The violent shock wave overturned everyone around him. Gu Lugui, who was smiling, was swallowed up by the flames in an instant and torn into pieces.

The entire car soared into the sky and crashed to the ground, killing two people next to it.

The power of the explosion caused serious injuries to the crowd gathered nearby.

Fire, blood, corpses.

Screams, scoldings, curses, and wails.

The sudden change caused everyone's mood to change instantly, and the entire venue became panicked and chaotic.
