Cicada Moving

Chapter 1273 Unfinished (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)

In Shanghai, outside an alley at the junction of the Japanese-occupied area and the public concession, Hase Ryosuke Shi Shiran stepped down from the car, straightened his collar and walked into the alley surrounded by his subordinates.

Just after taking two steps, Hase and the others heard crisp slaps coming from deep in the alley. In addition, they were also accompanied by Osako Tosada's roar from time to time.

"Crack!" "Crack!".

"Baga! They are all trash!"

"So many locust troops were killed, and you didn't even notice."

Hase Ryosuke frowned, looked back at the people watching behind him, whispered to his men to disperse the crowd, and increased his speed.

After walking a few steps, the alley became darker and darker. When they turned a corner, a row of more than ten corpses covered with white cloth appeared in front of everyone.

Next to the body, several chief secret agents of the Special Committee Against China were bowing their heads to accept Osako Tosada's reprimand. People from the public concession patrol room were also present.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Agency."

Hase Ryosuke said hello to Osako, and then without waiting for the other party to respond, he squatted down and opened one of the white cloths, and at the same time covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

Under the white cloth is a naked body, with only the crotch cloth remaining on the whole body. The head is tilted to the side at a weird angle. The two half-open eyes are turbid and bloodshot. The eyeballs are turned up, which looks quite scary. .

After putting down the shroud, Chang Gu checked the other corpses. The conditions were similar. There were no obvious external injuries on the bodies of the deceased. Even the expressions on their faces were similar, full of shock and surprise.

Osako Tosada came over at this time and said in a nonchalant tone: "Mr. Hase, these people are all special marines. They were going to the secret meeting place, but the murderer killed them here and took away the handheld disk. And uniforms, stupid navy red deer.”

Hase Ryosuke stood up and asked slowly: "Your Excellency, Chief of Agency, it seems that you don't need to pass through the public concession when going from the Navy Headquarters to the suburban military station. Why do the Marines appear here?"

As soon as these words came out, Osako Tosada's face turned even darker. He couldn't say that he didn't believe Hase and had deliberately set up a false target, so he had to be vague and try to hide the matter.

"In order to prevent Shancheng agents from sabotaging it, I temporarily adjusted the negotiation location to Hartung Gardens. Many imperial warriors died there. Fortunately, the Judah representative was safe and sound."

"Oh? Really?" Chang Gu looked at the other party with a half-smile, as if you think I believe it or not.

Osako blushed and began to forcefully change the subject: "Before committing the crime, the murderer pretended to be a gangster and warned the surrounding residents so that they could not go out. It is really rampant."

Chang Gu smiled playfully and did not continue to ask. He raised his chin towards the road where people were passing outside the alley: "Where are the passers-by? The murderer will not block the road too, right?"

"That's not true." Osako shook his head and opened his mouth to explain: "According to the confessions of the surrounding vendors, several men stopped the navy red deer, and then both parties entered the alley. No one knows what happened next."

After listening to this, Ryosuke Hase did not express his position. He turned to look at the concession patrol officers not far away: "If there is any discovery from the patrol house, they are the professionals in solving the case."

"Yes, the patrol room did find something." Osako Tsusada replied, and then waved to a person in the patrol room team, and introduced him to Hase when the other person approached.

"This is Inspector Kuang Fuan Kuang, a well-known criminal investigation expert in the public concession. After receiving the report, he was the first to lead the team to the scene."

Kuang Fuan looked at Chang Gu, smiled and stretched out his hand: "Your Excellency Chang Gu, long time no see."

The two have met on many occasions, but their relationship is relatively ordinary. After all, one of them is a Japanese intelligence officer and the other is a concession inspector. Their identities are sensitive and it is not appropriate to have too much contact.

"Hello Kuang Sang." Hase Ryosuke shook hands with him and said with a warm attitude, "I wonder what clues you have found?"

When it came to business, Kuang Fuan calmed down his smile slightly, let go and came to the first corpse, pointed to the bruise on the corpse's neck, and gave his opinion from a professional perspective.

"Based on the situation at the scene, the murderer stood on the side or behind the deceased and suddenly made a move, firmly holding the deceased's head with his arm, while the other arm went around the deceased's neck and pressed against his throat.

The strong compression blocks the airflow, causing the deceased to be unable to breathe and call for help. The blood flow to the brain is also cut off, causing the deceased to quickly lose consciousness. This process usually occurs within a few seconds.

In order to ensure fatality, the murderer pushed the deceased's chin, tilted his head back, and pushed the deceased forward, breaking the deceased's cervical vertebrae. The deceased was paralyzed and died almost immediately. "

As he spoke, he put on gloves and straightened the corpse's head, pointing to the slightly opened eyes with their eyeballs turned up, and continued.

"Look, you two, injuries to the cervical spine, especially injuries to the high cervical spine, will interrupt the nerve connection between the brain and the body, affecting the muscles that control the eyelids, so the deceased's eyes cannot be completely closed.

The upturned eyeballs were caused by severe damage to the spinal cord or brain and loss of control of the eye muscles. Combined with the congestion of the whites of the eyes, various signs proved that the deceased died from a broken cervical spine.

I am convinced that the murderers are a group of professionals who are proficient in unarmed combat, are powerful and have received special training. The opponent is likely to have a military background, move quickly, be well-organized, and be extremely cruel. "After introducing the current findings, Kuang Fuan took off his gloves, turned his head and looked at both ends of the alley, and speculated on the situation at the time of the crime.

"At that time, the murderer somehow tricked the deceased into the alley, and then attacked suddenly. The deceased had no time to resist and lost the ability to move in a very short period of time.

If I guessed correctly, the murderer should have used a false identity. Well, there is a high probability that he appeared as one of your personnel. Otherwise, the deceased would not have rashly entered a remote location and would not have allowed the murderer to approach. "

Osako Tosada and Hase Ryosuke nodded in unison. The Marine Special Marines were considered elite. With so many professional soldiers, how could they be easily killed if they were not unprepared.

While the three were talking, a patrol officer came over to report that they found multiple burned documents in a garbage dump dozens of meters away from the scene.

Kuang Fuan took the dark document, looked at it for a few times and handed it to the Japanese. The document was too damaged and he could not see any valuable clues.

Just because he couldn't see it, it didn't mean that Osako and Hase couldn't see it either. The two of them were very familiar with this document that had been burned until only a corner of the cover was left.

"Baga! This is a shameless frame-up!"

Osako Michizada was furious. Why was there a special agent of the Special Committee against China on the scene? If Tokyo knew about this, he would not be scolded as easily.

Changgu, on the other hand, was full of gloating. Fat Tiger was indeed a qualified partner. Not only did he successfully complete the task, but he also tricked Osako.

Kuang Fuan saw the reaction of the two people in his eyes and sneered in his heart. He didn't care how the Japanese fought dog-eat-dog. The important thing was that the secret talks between Japan and Japan were destroyed, and the matter must be reported to his superiors immediately.

In addition, based on the situation at the scene and the murderer's style of action, it is estimated that the person responsible was the military commander, who is worthy of being the national intelligence ace, with ruthless means and bold actions.

Everyone was silent for a moment. Osako Tosada left first. Hase bowed slightly to Kuang Fuan and left with the corpse. As a partner of the navy, he could exchange these corpses for many benefits and make the most of everything. Use it.

Looking at the back of the Changgu agency chief, Kuang Fuan pursed his lips, waved his hand to dismiss the patrol, got in his car and quickly drove away from the scene.

French Concession, hotel.

Zheng Tingbing circled Xu Enzeng twice with his hands behind his back. The latter was lying on the sofa moaning, his face was bruised and his clothes were in tatters, and he looked very embarrassed.

Chen Gongshu rescued Xu Enzeng, changed him into a beggar's uniform and threw him into the urban area of ​​the French Concession. The local beggar thought he was a bad guy who came to steal business and beat Deputy Director Xu on the spot. Man, Xu Enzeng was almost beaten to death.

"Tsk, tsk, Lao Xu, you are not going to have fun, are you stuck in bed by someone else's husband?" Zheng Tingbing asked knowingly, with a narrow tone.

Xu Enzeng was too lazy to pay attention to him, and his eyes slowly moved to Zuo Zhong, Gui Youguang and Shen Dongxin. His eyes instantly turned red and he raised his finger to point at the three of them with extremely sad and angry expressions.

"Zuo, I want to accuse you to the committee! And you two, don't think that Xu is a fool. Today's matter is a conspiracy, a conspiracy against me."

Shen Dongxin did not tolerate him and asked the other party why they did not meet near Hartong Garden as planned. If Xu Enzeng could not give a reasonable explanation, he would also report the matter to Zhu Liuxian and Shangfeng.

Xu Enzeng was speechless and hemmed and hawed for a long time but couldn't explain why. Zheng Tingbing shook his head and said to himself that Old Xu really couldn't see the situation clearly.

When they perform a mission together, even if they cannot be united sincerely, at least they must be able to live up to their reputation.

Now that the Central Unification Operation failed and a large number of manpower was lost, but the Military Unification Operation was successful, what Xu Enzeng had to do was to lower his head and get through the difficulties first.

But instead of looking at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, Zheng Tingbing thought of Erchen, so he asked Gui Youguang if his operation went smoothly, trying to save some face for Xu Enzeng.

Gui Youguang looked at Zuo Zhong, saw Zuo Zhong nodded slightly, and then recounted the action. The process was the same as Kuang Fuan's speculation, but there were many details missing, such as the existence of Hase Ryosuke.

When Zheng Tingbing heard that all the Japanese negotiators had been killed, he was surprised and suggested to retreat immediately. No matter how good Shanghai was, it was still Japanese territory, so it would be better to return to the mountain city as soon as possible.

"No hurry, there is one more thing that has not been done." Zuo Zhong rejected Zheng Tingbing's proposal and handed the other party several photos and translations.

Zheng Tingbing looked at the photo with curiosity on his face, his eyes slowly widened. No wonder Gui Youguang and Shen Dongxin didn't touch the Jewish people before. It turned out that it was not because of the commission's order, but because of the commission's order.

His heart moved, he grabbed the photo and said righteously: "Shen Zhong, if you need me to do anything, just ask me, Zheng will never shirk the responsibility!"

Xu Enzeng looked at Zuo Zhong, then at Zheng Tingbing, and shook his head vigorously. He always felt that this was an illusion. When did Zheng Tingbing become so active?
