Chapter 67: Assassination
Halfway through the meeting, Lu Xiyan felt tight and tight. He felt that if he continued to listen, he might have been able to overturn the table on the spot.
So he found an excuse to sneak out.
"Brother Anzi, why did you come out so soon? Will you finish driving?" Meng Hao saw Lu Xiyan coming out of the elevator and ran up to ask.
"No, come out and have a breath, Haozi, have you brought cigarettes?" Lu Xiyan asked.
"Take it." Meng Hao took out a bag of three cannons from his pocket.
Lu Xiyan reached out and pulled out one and bit it.
Meng Hao took out the match and lit it. Lu Xiyan sucked two mouthfuls and said, "I have seen it clearly. This foreigner is also unreliable. He said it beautifully, but it is not that interests are the most important!"
"Brother Anzi, what's going on inside?" Meng Hao asked curiously.
"Don't ask so much. When doing things in the future, be careful and don't rush forward silly. If it weren't for me, Weng Xiong would have pulled out your gun, your injuries would have been mild. How could I explain to your dad and your sister?" Lu Xiyan glared at him.
"It's common to be a policeman, and I won't do anything else." Meng Hao laughed, "Brother An Zi, I've made a contribution this time. Detective Tang said that when the credit is enough, I will be promoted to a first-class agent and reward me with 300 French coins."
"I told you, why did you get the third turret? It turns out that you have money, didn't tell your dad?" Lu Xiyan asked.
"How dare I not say it. Just this old man, can I hide it?" Meng Hao said aggrievedly, "I was confiscated for 250 before I could warm up the 300 yuan."
"Dad is afraid that you will spend money randomly and keep it for you to marry a wife."
"Okay, I escaped with my urine, and I have to go back. It's so bad to drive it now!" Lu Xiyan put out the cigarette butts and cursed.
After returning for a long time, he became much more swearing. In Paris, he is also a representative of an elegant gentleman.
...
"Consultant Lu has been urinating for a long time?" Asano Ichiro sat next to Lu Xiyan. Seeing him coming back, he deliberately came over and teased in a low voice.
"Do you care?" Lu Xiyan didn't give him a good look.
"I'm sorry about Ong Xiong's affairs. He was too meticulous in his facts." Asano Ichiro smiled and a hint of provocation in his eyes. This was not an apology, it was clearly a demonstration.
"Mr. Asano, I didn't expect you to be such a despicable person." Lu Xiyan snorted coldly. He heard the threat in Asano Ichiro's words.
"Guest Lu, you are a thoughtful and talented person. Why do you want to be an enemy of the Great Japanese Empire?" Asano Ichiro said with an expression of "I will be looking at the bright moon."
"Being an enemy, Ichiro Asano, this is what I should ask you. I have never been an enemy of you or an enemy of you. I am stopping you from invading our country, enslaving and killing our people? If so, not only I am your enemy, but forty million Chinese people are your enemies." Lu Xiyan sneered.
Asano Ichiro frowned slightly. Lu Xiyan's words made him feel uncomfortable, but objectively speaking, he was actually right.
Since ancient times, the contradiction between the conquerors and the conquered ones has been irreconcilable.
"Mr. Asano, Consultant Lu, two, I'll be the host of Rongshun Pavilion tonight. You must give Tang a face, how about it?" Tang Jin hurried over.
Lu Xiyan must give Tang Jin a face, but judging from Asano Ichiro's attitude, I am afraid that I will not seriously reflect on it. Reconciliation will be a show at that time.
"Mr. Tang's invitation will definitely come." Asano Ichiro agreed first. As for what he thought, only he knew.
"Okay, then let's make a reservation. We will see you at 7 o'clock tonight, Rongshun Pavilion." Tang Jin smiled.
To be honest, Lu Xiyan has the intention to kill Ichiro Asano, but he cannot do anything here. Not to mention that Ichiro Asano is highly vigilant, killing him is not easy.
What's more, killing Asano is not necessarily a good thing.
Tang Jin is willing to be a peacemaker. If I can really let Ichiro Asano dispel some of his doubts about him, this may be a good thing.
Both he and Meimei need a relatively safe living space.
The meeting was over halfway through, and Lu Xiyan was not interested in listening. He was thinking about how to drink this meal and head wine in the evening.
Tang Jin suddenly pushed his shoulder.
"What's wrong, Brother Tang?"
"What happened, follow me quickly." Tang Jin stood up with a serious look on his face.
"What's the matter?" Lu Xiyan was not surprised. Something happened in the French Concession every few days. This has become the norm. It would be strange if there is no accident.
But looking at Tang Jin's expression, I'm afraid it's a big deal.
"Zhou Yuanquan was assassinated in the street and his life was in full swing. He was being sent to Guangci Hospital for emergency treatment!" Tang Jin and Lu Xiyan walked out of the conference room and told him the truth.
"Who is Zhou Yuanquan?"
"Forget this Zhou Yuanquan, let's talk to you when I get in the car." Tang Jin walked forward quickly.
"Meng Hao, drive and take me and your brother-in-law to Guangci Hospital, hurry!" After leaving the gate of the international hotel, Tang Jin directly ordered Meng Hao.
"yes!"
"This Zhou Yuanquan was a scholar in the late Qing Dynasty. He graduated from Zhejiang Martial Arts School and was admitted to Baoding Army Officer School. He once studied in Japan and served as the chairman of Zhejiang Province. He is now the president of the Zhejiang Public Security Maintenance Committee. It is said that he may serve as a senior official in the Reform Government." Tang Jin briefly introduced in the car.
"So he is a big traitor." Lu Xiyan snorted coldly.
"That's right, Zhou Yuanquan is indeed a big traitor. However, he was assassinated in the French Concession, and this matter is in trouble." Tang Jin said.
Lu Xiyan nodded. If such a big traitor died in the French Concession, the impact would definitely be significant.
"Drive quickly..."
Meng Hao was already sweating, he kept honking the horn and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, but this was on the road where people were passing by, and no matter how fast he was, he couldn't get up!
"Hurry up!"
Tang Jin's car is Fiat 518. It has been less than two years since I bought it. There are not many cars in the entire Shanghai, and almost everyone in the French Concession knows it.
Therefore, after the car entered the French Concession, the speed accelerated a lot.
After less than half a quarter of an hour, Lu Xiyan and Tang Jin rushed to Guangci Hospital together.
The person has been sent to the hospital emergency room. A large group of people surrounded by Zhou Yuanquan's bodyguards and entourages, and several injured people are bandaged in the disposal room.
"Qi Huan, what's going on?"
"Inspector, you are here." Hearing Tang Jin's voice, Qi Huan, who was directing to maintain order on the scene, ran over in three or two steps.
"I'm not angry when I'm sent to the hospital. I guess it's a lot of danger." Qi Huan replied with a bitter face.
"Who did it?" Tang Jin's face looked ugly. If it was an assassination, it would be understandable, but this was an assassination in broad daylight, and it was in the French Concession, who had eaten the courage of the bear heart and leopard.
"I don't know, Chief Ma Long has brought people to block the scene and is investigating it, but there are many pedestrians on the road at that time and the gunman cannot be locked in. Even if there are clues, it will destroy the panicked crowd." Qi Huan said.
The lights in the rescue operating room are out!
Tang Jin and others walked over, the door opened, and the person in charge of the rescue was Professor Sheng Xiyuan, who was already the top medical team of Guangci Hospital.
Sheng Xiyuan walked out and shook his head slightly at Tang Jin as soon as possible.
From this glance, you can tell that people are definitely helpless.
"Can we go in and take a look?" Tang Jin asked.
"Yes, but not too many people. I'm afraid that someone will not adapt." Sheng Xiyuan nodded.
The body was lying on the first aid operating table.
There is still a trace of residual heat.
Zhou Yuanquan was shot several times, almost all the guns were hit on the vital point. It would be great if he could hold on to the hospital in one breath. Even the gods could not do it if they wanted to pull people back.
"Brother Lu, what do you think?" Tang Jin asked with his nose covering.
"I have been planning for a long time, and one blow is fatal. It is definitely not done by ordinary gangsters!" What else can Lu Xiyan say, even a fool can see.
"This case is difficult." Tang Jin sighed.
"Brother Lu, I'm going to trouble you next. I'll do a comprehensive autopsy on Zhou Yuanquan's body and give the police station a report as soon as possible."
"Okay, do the autopsy in the hospital or go to the police station?"
"It's a problem to move around in the hospital. I can only give you 24 hours at most. The Japanese will definitely negotiate with us soon. The case involves the officials of the Reform Government. It's hard to say whether we can solve the case before them." Tang Jin said.
Chapter completed!
