Chapter 96: It was actually internal strife
Guandi threw the bench and confidently took out his pistol. However, he was dumbfounded. Before he even raised the gun, the car hit the bench and sped past.
Why didn't the other party stop? If I had known, I would have blocked the car.
Guan Di didn't know that blocking the car would be even worse. Xu Qingyun had just seen his photo and knocked him down when he noticed what he said.
"Bang"
Gunshots rang out, and Zheng Jiming fired first. Guandi's body was suddenly hit hard, and the bullet hit his right shoulder.
Zheng Jiming's marksmanship is really good and he can hit people in an emergency.
Xu Qingyun drove towards Zuo Jinfang. Seeing the car approaching, Zuo Jinfang waved hurriedly.
Noticing them, Xu Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Go and arrest people quickly."
Zuo Jinfang ran towards the car, not forgetting to order them to capture Guandi.
After Guandi was shot, he fell to the ground. He was shot in the shoulder. Half of his body was out of control. The gun fell to the ground. He struggled to get up and pick up the gun. Zheng Jiming had sharp eyes. He immediately stopped the car when he saw his movement and fired again towards him. One shot.
Guandi retracted his hand in fear.
Zheng Jiming and others rode bicycles and quickly arrived at a distance of tens of meters. The first person to arrive picked up the gun on the ground while the others held him down.
"Brother Qingyun, are you okay?"
Zuo Jinfang never expected that Guan Di came here to assassinate Xu Qingyun, and his face turned pale with fear.
"I'm fine."
Xu Qingyun didn't get out of the car. He looked back through the rear window and noticed that one of his own had rushed over and held him down. He got out of the car with confidence.
The sound of gunshots alerted people in the police station, and many people ran out with guns.
Who was so bold as to shoot at the door of the police headquarters in broad daylight? Wang Jiansheng also heard the gunfire and ordered his secretary to go out and check the situation.
"Brother Qingyun, I didn't expect that Guan Di came here to assassinate you. Fortunately, we caught up with him."
Zuo Jinfang said quickly, while Xu Qingyun was startled. Was the person who assassinated him Guan Di? He came to the General Administration to check Guandi's information and was assassinated by the person who wanted to arrest him as soon as he left the house?
Instinct told Xu Qingyun that someone had betrayed him. Guan Di knew that he was going to arrest him and went out of his way to take revenge.
Is he from the police headquarters?
No.
He just came to check information. People from the General Administration didn't know what he was going to do to Guandi. If it wasn't the General Administration, it would be their squadron.
The information was unequal, and Xu Qingyun did not think about Cao Yunfeng.
"Go over and have a look."
Noticing that Zheng Jiming and others had arrested someone, Xu Qingyun walked over. Guan Di was not dead, but there was a lot of blood on his body.
"team leader."
Seeing Xu Qingyun coming, Zheng Jiming and others gave way one after another. At this time, there were many people around, most of them were police officers who ran out.
"Take him to the headquarters."
This is the street, not suitable for questioning. Guandi was shot in the shoulder. It was not a fatal injury. The General Administration could stop the bleeding and bandage him.
As for the warhead inside, Xu Qingyun didn't even think about it. He wanted to find out who betrayed him and find out the traitor.
Guandi must die sooner or later, and letting him die as soon as possible would be a relief for him.
"yes."
Zheng Jiming and others carried Guan Di directly to the headquarters. The entrance to the police station was convenient. The headquarters had a more complete torture room and an electric chair.
In the entire Tianjin Police Department, only the General Bureau has one.
"Someone assassinated Xu Qingyun?"
The secretary asked about the situation and immediately ran back to report. Wang Jiansheng's eyes widened.
"Yes, Captain Xu was very cautious. Someone stopped the car and drove over. It happened that his men were tracking down the thief. The thief was the killer. Captain Xu's men fired both shots."
"Where are they?"
Wang Jiansheng stood up. He hadn't left yet. He was still the chief of police. Someone assassinated the captain of the rising star squadron at the door of the police headquarters. It was simply lawless.
"Captain Xu escorted people to our torture room."
The secretary replied, Wang Jiansheng didn't ask any more questions and walked directly out.
In the torture room, the doctor was bandaging Guandi to stop the bleeding, while Guandi kept wailing.
"Qingyun, are you okay?"
As soon as the wound was taken care of, Wang Jiansheng walked in.
"Director, I'm fine. Why are you here?"
"Let me see who is so bold as to assassinate our police officers in front of the police station."
Wang Jiansheng looked at Guan Di and said fiercely, he came just in time, Xu Qingyun can use the torture room for interrogation at any time, no one objects.
But if the electric chair is used, it must be approved by the superiors.
Wang Jiansheng had previously issued an order that the electric chair was not an ordinary instrument of torture and could not be used at will.
"Director, his name is Guandi. He is a lone robber. I am arresting him because of a theft case."
Xu Qingyun explained, and Wang Jiansheng was startled. He thought of the same question that Xu Qingyun thought of, and immediately replied: "Trial immediately."
"Yes, Director, I want to use the electric chair to speed up the interrogation."
"no problem."
Wang Jiansheng agreed immediately, and the director spoke. Without saying a word, the people in the interrogation office pressed Guan Di on the electric chair and prepared to turn on the electricity.
"Who told you that I was going to arrest you? How did you know I was here?"
When Xu Qingyun was asking questions, he was constantly analyzing in his mind. Not many people knew that he came to the General Administration today, and Zuo Jinfang was an insider.
It was impossible for Zuo Jinfang to betray him, and besides, it was Zuo Jinfang who brought his men over in time and hit Guandi.
But what about everyone else?
Or maybe an insider said that he had exposed his mouth, and someone with an interest heard it, and then told Guan Di.
"You want to catch me?"
Guan Di was stunned. He was sent by Cao Yunfeng and had no idea that Xu Qingyun was arresting him.
Looking at his appearance, Xu Qingyun frowned. What did he mean by asking this question? He didn't know that he wanted to arrest him, so why did he come to assassinate him?
Usually they have no grievances or grudges.
"Tell me clearly what's going on?"
Xu Qingyun asked, Guan Di shook his head and said: "You'd better let me go. There is a big shot behind me, who is more powerful than you think. If you don't let me go, you will not have a good life if I provoke him."
Guan Di knows Cao Yunfeng's identity. The Military Intelligence Department is a secret service and supervises the military and police.
Cao Yunfeng used to be the actual controller of Tianjin Station, and he was indeed a big shot in his heart.
"Big shot?"
Xu Qingyun smiled and waved his hand: "Electrify him."
Use the lowest setting for the current. As soon as the switch is turned on, the body is shaking wildly, and the expression is even more painful and ferocious.
He has been beaten before, considers himself cruel, and is generally not afraid of punishment.
But he didn't expect that there was such a terrifying thing as the electric chair in the world, which directly stimulates the nerves. Before this, he had never even heard of the name of the electric chair.
I enjoyed it the first time I heard about it, and I was lucky.
"Cao, yes, it's Cao..."
"stop."
When Xu Qingyun saw him, he wanted to say that he could not speak normally because of the current, and he would immediately have the power cut off.
Many people frowned, and a stench spread quickly. Guan Di was already peeing out and breathing heavily.
"Who is it?"
"Cao, Brother Cao, Cao Yunfeng from the Military Intelligence Department."
After experiencing a hellish journey, Guandi no longer dared to hide anything. He would rather die now than experience the pain just now.
"Cao Yunfeng?" Xu Qingyun's eyes flashed coldly, while Wang Jiansheng was stunned. He thought there was a traitor within the police station, but he didn't expect it to be an internal strife within the Military Intelligence Department.
"Everyone keep today's affairs a secret, get out now."
Wang Jiansheng suddenly gave an order. He knew that Cao Yunfeng was involved in the secret service and other police officers were not suitable to stay in the torture room.
"Qingyun, you can judge it yourself."
Wang Jiansheng patted Xu Qingyun on the shoulder and then left. He was not that curious. It was better to know less about the internal affairs of the secret service.
"He gave me ten gold bars, told me you were here, asked me to kill you, and then left Tianjin..."
Only Xu Qingyun was left in the torture room, Guan Di said slowly, and even took the initiative to explain that he only gave five gold bars at the beginning. After he knew that he wanted to kill the police squadron leader, he temporarily raised the price, and finally paid five gold bars as a deposit.
He didn't know that the person he was about to kill was the deputy leader of the Tianjin Station Intelligence Team.
Cao Yunfeng didn't tell him this.
"When did he find you?"
"A few days ago, he suddenly found me today and asked me to do something."
Xu Qingyun believed what he said. There were no traitors in the police station. There was no need for the police to have friendship with such people. If it was really Da Xiu, the police would indeed be willing to be friends with them. Da Xiu was a big gangster who had energy and could help. .
What can a person like Guandi do?
Help them kill people?
Most of the police officers have families, and those who don't have families also have parents and relatives. Being with such a bastard is not enough to cause trouble for yourself.
Cao Yunfeng did have a motive to kill him.
He was promoted to deputy team leader and threatened Cao Yunfeng's position. This time he made great achievements. Cao Yunfeng was afraid that he would replace him and wanted to get rid of himself first.
"Director, thank you, I want to make a call."
Wang Jiansheng was outside and did not return to the office. Xu Qingyun came over and thanked him.
"No problem, go and fight right away."
Xu Qingyun called Wu Shaoshu. Wu Shaoshu was stunned when he heard that Cao Yunfeng sent someone to assassinate Xu Qingyun.
After learning that the killer had been caught, Wu Shaoshu immediately asked Xie Yongshan to arrest the person. Unfortunately, it was too late and Cao Yunfeng was not in the office.
At this time, Cao Yunfeng was at home, packing things urgently.
He had just called the internal line of the police station and told him what happened at the police headquarters.
The insider didn't know that he was the instigator. According to the order, all important matters and military intelligence matters must be reported in time, so he reported Xu Qingyun to the police headquarters.
Cao Yunfeng scolded him while taking the valuable thing. Damn Guan Di, he actually missed it. Why didn't he die when he missed it? Instead, he was captured alive by Xu Qingyun.
Once Guandi betrays him, he will be finished immediately.
Wu Shaoshu disliked him and would not let go of such an opportunity.
He had to run.
As long as the green hills remain, there is no need to worry about running out of firewood.
"Let's go." After a brief tidying up, without taking any clothes, Cao Yunfeng called his wife.
"I haven't finished taking my things yet."
"I won't take it, I'll buy it later."
Cao Yunfeng knows the importance of time. One more minute at home means more danger and he must leave immediately.
He planned to drive out of the city and head west.
There was a brother of his far to the west who he could seek refuge with. The sky was high over there and the Emperor was far away. Nanjing was not the only place where people from the Military Intelligence Office could do nothing to him.
"Very valuable."
Cao Yunfeng's wife didn't listen and was still packing. She didn't know what happened. Cao Yunfeng only told her to pack her things and leave, not knowing the importance of time.
"Crack."
Cao Yunfeng slapped her directly and pulled her away without any explanation. Life was more important than things.
Xie Yongshan led people to his home, but it was a pity that it was too late.
"Director, I will go back first. Guandi will be detained with you for the time being."
Over at the police station, Xu Qingyun immediately said to Wang Jiansheng after making the call.
"Take your people back with you, don't worry, I won't let anyone come into contact with Guandi."
Wang Jiansheng smiled and said, "The beauty of Lin Feng will be destroyed. How long ago, someone actually wanted to assassinate Xu Qingyun, and he was one of their insiders."
Don't they know that when Xu Qingyun died, the Japanese were happy?
If such a person is in his hands, he will definitely be shot.
"Thank you, Director."
Xu Qingyun took Zuo Jinfang and others away. Wang Jiansheng specially gave them a car. One car was not enough for more people.
The men followed to protect Xu Qingyun's safety.
Cao Yunfeng is looking for a killer to assassinate him. Who knows what other crazy things he will do?
Safety is the most important thing.
"Team leader, the station leader asked you to go to Cao Yunfeng's house."
Not long after he came out, Yan Ming drove to find him. Xu Qingyun's heart suddenly sank. Cao Yunfeng received the news and ran away?
He immediately remembered that the police station had an insider from the Military Intelligence Department.
It's a pity that all these insiders are in the hands of Cao Yunfeng, and only the webmaster knows their identities. Xu Qingyun has been busy and is the deputy team leader, so he did not take over these informants.
"Let's go there."
Several cars drove to Cao Yunfeng's house together. Before they arrived, Xu Qingyun saw Wu Shaoshu and Xie Yongshan standing in front of Cao Yunfeng's house. There were many people at the door.
"Qingyun, that bitch Cao Yunfeng ran away a long time ago. I'm asking people to trace where he ran."
After Xu Qingyun passed by, Wu Shaoshu took the initiative and said that the intelligence team leader of the Tianjin station assassinated the deputy team leader. He was extremely angry. If other substations found out about this, he had to laugh it off.
They have just achieved such great achievements, so it is a good thing to show their face, because Cao Yunfeng will be greatly reduced.
Damn it, Cao Yunfeng, why didn't you see that he was such a person before?
I would have dealt with him earlier.
Wu Shaoshu is an afterthought. After all, Cao Yunfeng is the leader of the major's intelligence team. Wu Shaoshu cannot touch him at will without a suitable reason.
"Did he drive?" Xu Qingyun asked immediately.
"It's open."
The answer was from Xie Yongshan. He asked someone about the situation and found out that Cao Yunfeng did drive back home and left soon after with his wife and children.
Damn Cao Yunfeng, he still drives a car belonging to the Military Intelligence Service.
"Let me take a look first."
Xu Qingyun observed carefully at the door and quickly found the car prints. Since he wanted to run, he only had a few options.
Escape by train, boat, or just drive.
Airplanes are impossible.
The steamer had to wait, and there were many trains at Tianjin Railway Station, but he was walking in a hurry, so there was no guarantee that there would be a train when he arrived at the station. He would most likely have to drive.
"Stationmaster, wait for me. I will chase him. I won't let this kid run away."
Xu Qingyun took the initiative to write down the car prints. Wu Shaoshu remembered his unique skill of reading footprints with his hands. It seemed that the car prints could be read as well.
"Okay, go right away."
"Team leader Xie, go back and get some gasoline and bring it to me. I will mark signals for you along the way."
Cars need gasoline. There are no gas stations everywhere these days, and it is difficult to refuel in remote places. Only by bringing enough fuel can Xu Qingyun ensure that he can catch up with Cao Yunfeng.
"no problem."
Xie Yongshan agreed immediately, Xu Qingyun wasted no time and let Yan Ming drive. He took the passenger seat and left in the direction of the car tracks.
Fortunately, in this era, there are mostly bluestone roads. There is a lot of dust on the road and it is easy to leave marks.
