Chapter 566: Pulling silk and peeling cocoons
"Are you talking about the police? Is it one of the three old customers I'm talking about?"
"It should be true. I have been here for a short time. I have only seen one of the three old customers. I don't know if he is. However, the clothes he wore that day was the first time I made for Master Tian. That one was made for one of the old customers. I am sure he was wearing that piece of clothing."
Sun Shaohua nodded. He felt that there must be something wrong with this person, but he didn't know if the police identity was real. Sun Shaohua felt afraid that it was true. After all, he told a lie and was discovered, so more people needed to be fulfilled. These people were not stupid, after all, they had fooled young people.
"Don't be on the back, it should be a pistol, right? Look at which type it is?" After Sun Shaohua said, he took the shell gun and M1911 for the apprentice to defend it.
"Somewhat looks like this," the apprentice pointed to M1911 and said, "But it seems a little different, the grip is darker, and the gun butt doesn't have that little hammer."
According to the apprentice's description, Sun Shaohua felt that it should be a Continental Rubber. This gun is indeed equipped in the police system, but it must be an official, and it is not a turn for ordinary officials.
After asking about some details, after confirming that nothing was missing, Sun Shaohua arranged a room in the store for the three of them to rest. He was about to go upstairs to see the situation, but he happened to meet with the team members who had just received the order.
"Brother Hua, you really guessed it. There are really a lot of people in the situation this guy explained, but he was unaware of it at all."
"Have you discovered it? Say it..." Sun Shaohua took over the interrogation record, looked at it a few times, and signaled to the team members to say that they had discovered it.
"Brother Hua, I just found something wrong from the description of him coming to decorate the tailor shop. I carefully interrogated various details and found that the one who is really in charge here is probably the tailor."
"Well..." Sun Shaohua nodded without being surprised.
"Brother Hua, have you found it?" The team members were a little depressed and thought they had discovered it themselves.
Seeing this, Sun Shaohua replied: "I just learned about some situations with several apprentices. I feel this way, but there is no evidence to confirm it. Please tell me in detail about your findings."
"Okay..." The team members' mood rose a lot, and they told the whole process in detail, which was nothing more than the best. Everything in the store was vaguely dominated by the tailor.
"Apart from these, what about other discoveries?"
The team member heard this and said, "There is another thing that I think is very important. At the beginning of the 21st year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1932, he received information for the Japanese. According to his recollection, it should be his first time.
During that time, the shopkeeper and the tailor acted very wrong. The store no longer operated well and often closed the door and went out. They were even more anxious that day. After he came to the store, the two of them told him that there were several important customers who wanted to answer and asked him to send clothes and get the size.
He was not very happy at the time because he went to the vicinity of Xiaguan Wharf, and time was tight, so he had to run there. In the end, the shopkeeper promised to add money, so he went there.
Before he could walk out of the street, he saw the shopkeeper and tailor leave in a hurry. On that day, he rushed to a restaurant near the dock and picked up the customer. The other party took away his clothes and gave him the size sealed in the envelope.
I guess the envelope will definitely not be of any size. It should be intelligence. The person who handed over to him was either a Japanese spy or a traitor who was sold and turned against him, but I prefer the former one."
"Oh? Tell me the reason, does he have any impression of the other party?"
"I have an impression..." The team member nodded and explained: "He recalled that the other party arrived before him, but he did not blame him. Instead, he was polite. There were not many people who treated him like this, which impressed him deeply. This is also one of the reasons why I think the other party is a Japanese spy. According to his description..."
The team members told Sun Shaohua what they explained, emphasizing the other party's clothes, appearance, and temperament. They would definitely not be ordinary people, but suspected to be from the public.
"Can you be sure that his description is fine?"
"This..." the team member hesitated and said, "There may be some differences, but the differences should not be too big. I listened to his description and I really had a deep impression of this person. What's wrong with Brother Hua, is there any problem?"
"No problem, it's just the appearance he described. I just heard similar things. The other party is a police officer..."
Sun Shaohua told the team members about the situation provided by the apprentice. What did the team members think of, and asked someone to find a map. After Sun Shaohua finished speaking, he marked it on it.
Ten minutes later, the team member looked excited and said to Sun Shaohua: "Brother Hua, look, I separated a large part of it from the location he explained. Although it was not in Xiaguan at the beginning, it was also vaguely surrounding Xiaguan.
From this point of view, one of our goals should be Xiaguan. At the beginning, he handed over to Xiaguan. It is likely that he encountered an emergency situation, and the other party could not leave too far or for some reason, so he chose to hand over nearby.
Since he chose to be near, his place of residence is likely to be nearby, and there is a police station at Xiaguan Wharf, which is not far away. Now it is the most suspected."
"Well..." Sun Shaohua nodded and smiled, "The analysis is very good. I remember that many major events happened at the end of the 20th year and the beginning of the 21st year. Did any major events happen around the time he went to Xiaguan?"
"It really is..." The team members recalled, responded, took out the interrogation record, and said: "At the end of the 20th year of the Republic of China, the biggest event was the September 18th incident launched by Japan in the Northeast. At the beginning of the 21st year, it was the 128th in Shanghai. These two Japanese people only arrived early not long ago, and this period was the most abnormal.
Something big happened at Xiaguan at that time. At that time, when he was in contact, Japanese warships rushed to Xiaguan. Could it be that he was going to receive relevant information?"
The team member stopped, his eyes lit up, and he continued: "If this happens, then this information also contains other information. The three people in the store acted at the same time, indicating that they should contact at least three parties at the same time. The other two Japanese spies personally contacted each other, which is obviously more important."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sun Shaohua thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "This is not necessarily the case. It may also be because this person is outside the south of the city and Xiaguan is in the north of the city. The distance is very far, so he basically does not have much intersection with Xiaguan in daily life.
In this way, it can greatly avoid accidentally knowing the identity of the contactor and protecting the other party's safety. This also shows that the contactor has a good identity and is likely to be a Japanese spy in person.
If this guess is true, then we should be able to determine another target, which is likely to exist in the south of the city and outside the south of the city, and he may often encounter intersections in daily life."
"Yes..." the team member nodded and replied: "Brother Hua, this possibility is not small. He was left behind. The purpose was not simple at first. It is likely that it was prepared for a certain group of people. It should be activated directly if it was urgent."
"It is possible that if this target is really a policeman, he will focus on uniforms in daily life and make various clothes regularly, it will be easier to attract attention."
The two chatted for a while, analyzed various possibilities, and went out to find people. They walked into the store with five foolish young men. As soon as they came in, they stayed aside honestly and did not dare to be presumptuous.
The team member leaned into Sun Shaohua's ear and whispered: "Brother Hua, the leader of the five people, the apprentice is just stumbling with him. He is Boss Sun's person, and he is basically aware of the whole situation."
Sun Shaohua nodded and whispered a few words. The team members took the other four people away and asked separately. The leader was called aside by Sun Shaohua.
"Do you smoke?" Sun Shaohua sent a cigarette to the other party, and after sitting down, he started asking. He did not go straight to the point, but learned about the missing apprentice first.
According to the other party, the missing apprentice is quite honest and loyal. Of course, this is among the gangsters. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is purely a bad young man.
"... He can keep a close eye on the door, but he is not patient in doing things, and he is a little greedy for money. He can't say that he wants to make money, so he proves to his parents..."
The little leader, with a clear structure, introduced Sun Shaohua to the apprenticeship situation, allowing Sun Shaohua to understand him a little.
"What about him before he disappeared? Is there anything unusual or what has been revealed?"
When the little leader heard this, he was silent and said, "There is indeed something. A few days before he disappeared, he came to us for a drink. After getting drunk, he said he missed his mouth.
I don't know exactly what happened. It seems that he knew some secret and kept telling us that he was going to make a fortune. A few brothers saw that he was not a fake, so they asked him for inquiries the next day.
He was very strict and didn't say anything. He denied it at first, but later he was annoyed by asking, so he said that we would help him and someone, and that we would share the money afterwards.
At that time, I was just a gangster. Before I could talk to Brother Sun, I was very tight, so I went there. The one who was following an officer, a major with two bars and one star. Everyone was wondering at the time and didn't want to do it, but thinking about it was related to a major, maybe I really had a lot of money, so I just bit the bullet and did it.
But within a few days, he disappeared, and his parents and police all came to us. We were frightened at that time and didn't dare to reveal the matter, just because we were afraid that we would disappear without knowing it."
"That's the case! Tell me about the officer's situation and what did you see when you follow him?"
"Well..." the little leader organized the language and said, "Actually, I didn't see anything useful. We have only seen him in one day.
That day, he put on his military uniform and went to the security headquarters. After a while, he came out again and went to find a woman. He wandered around the street for a few hours, and then moved into the woman's home when he was late.
We have checked the woman, named Wu Tian. Judging from their relationship, they may be lovers raised by the officers outside. Unlike husband and wife, more people have had an accident before they can investigate."
Sun Shaohua nodded and asked again: "Do you suspect the tailor shop?"
"I doubt it..." The little boss nodded and explained: "He usually usually stays in the tailor shop, and he is looking for us when he runs out. I know for myself that we have nothing to do with his disappearance, so he immediately suspected the tailor shop.
At that time, because of the involvement of the officers and the possibility of death, I also found that the tailor shop was paying attention to us and did not dare to do anything out of order. I was a turtle with a head shrink for half a year.
After half a year, the matter will come to an end, and I quietly paid attention to the tailor shop. But after paying attention for several months, I didn’t find any abnormalities. The police didn’t care anymore, so I slowly let it go.”
When Sun Shaohua heard his words, he didn't say much. It was natural to protect himself. After all, he was a murderer and an officer. If he didn't pay attention, he would be smashed to pieces and was not a street gangster who could deal with it. If he investigated quietly, he would be considered kind.
"You have been paying attention to the tailor shop for several months. You should have some understanding of the whereabouts of the shopkeepers! Tell me about it."
"Okay, if the shopkeeper is going out often, he will basically buy goods and deliver clothes to his door. But he only knows that he often goes to the places he often goes around, and he has never dared to go with him even further away.
As for tailor Tian, he usually goes to the shop, either tailoring clothes or giving instructions to a few apprentices. He rarely goes out, even when he goes out, he also comes to tailor his people or walk around, and goes to some small shops to sit."
Sun Shaohua asked the shopkeeper where the tailor often went, and then wrote it down one by one, and said, "I'll ask another question. Think about it carefully. Is there any shopkeeper who sends clothes to you outside the scope of your attention. When he comes back, the tailor will go out, or go out at a relatively fixed time the day of the day?"
The little boss rubbed his head, thought about it carefully for a few minutes, and hesitated: "It seems that there are a few times, but I can't be sure..."
"Where did you go? Is it the same place?"
"It's really..." The little leader's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "I've just passed two streets from here, and there is a small tea shop selling tea there. He went to buy tea those few times."
"He likes tea?"
"Yes! He usually rests in the store, or even goes out for a walk, he will take a small teapot and suck it in small mouthfuls, like a lifeblood.
And he has a very sensible mouth. The apprentice's parents basically don't want tea to give him, and they don't drink it after receiving it. They have to choose it themselves.
Although the tea shop is not big, the boss has a wide range of channels. It is said that he is from Fujian and can get many high-end and scarce good products from the place of origin. We ask people to do things and deliver tea from him.
The tailor is a regular customer, and he chooses good tea. The neighbors and neighbors all say that he has not married yet, but he has drunk all his wife's book."
So that's it. Sun Shaohua remembered that during the search, he found many cans of tea from the tailor's house on the second floor. There were also tea rooms on the first floor, which contained multiple sets of tea sets. I thought it was for entertaining customers, but it seemed that it was mainly for personal use.
‘Can it be that tea shop?’ Sun Shaohua was a little confused. The tailor shop did not find any items such as radio stations. The shopkeeper and the tailor also lived on the second floor of the store, and there was no intelligence to prove that there was another residence.
Judging from the composition of the Japanese spy team, there should be a carrier pigeon with a radio station and a password book. Such an important person is unlikely to be contacted by the shopkeeper who runs the errands, and the tailor who takes charge is responsible for it. The location is somewhere around.
‘Can it be a tea shop?’ Sun Shaohua asked himself again, and he always felt it was too easy. Other clues were still blurred under the cocoon. Such an important situation would make him find it so easily?
