"Officer Wu, this authentic painting of Tang Yin's maidservants has always been quite famous in the Shanghai antique circle."
"You guessed right. This painting definitely wasn't originally in the hands of the anti-Japanese elements who assassinated Professor Kamei. They only bought it from Boss Zhou recently for a large sum of money."
"Boss Zhou's main business is running a textile factory, but he's also a veteran collector in our antique circle. He has quite a few fine items at home. You're going to make a fortune this time. How about going to Boss Zhou's house and meeting him? Hehehehe!"
Broker Wang San had long coveted the large number of precious collections in Boss Zhou's house. Since he couldn't get them, he might as well give them to Chief Wu of the Secret Service Headquarters.
Perhaps Commander Wu would give him some leftovers because he had revealed the news. This might be his chance to make a fortune.
It was heard that the authentic Tang Yin painting in the hands of the anti-Japanese elements was actually bought temporarily from Mr. Zhou, who ran a textile factory.
A burst of golden light immediately burst out from Wu Yubao's greedy eyes!
"Wang San, why the hell didn't you tell me earlier? From now on, if something like this happens, you have to report it to me at the Secret Service Headquarters immediately, okay?!"
"Come on, lead the way, we're going to Boss Zhou's house to have a good chat with him!"
"Hehehe, if nothing unexpected happens, you will also benefit from it this time."
How could Wu Bao let go of the opportunity to take advantage of a wealthy family with a legitimate reason?
So a large group of traitorous spies from the Secret Service Headquarters surrounded the residence of Mr. Zhou, the boss of the textile factory.
Boss Zhou had some connections in the Wang Puppet Government, otherwise he would have been targeted and taken advantage of long ago.
However, this time, the paintings he sold indirectly killed a well-known Japanese finance professor.
After his misdeeds were exposed, even his backers in the Wang Puppet Government could not protect him.
Wu Yubao led his men into Boss Zhou's house, tied him up immediately, and began to interrogate the identity of the buyer who bought the authentic Tang Yin painting on the spot.
At that time, Boss Zhou actually didn't know that the person who bought the painting was from the Military Control Commission Station in Shanghai.
What they didn't know was that their purpose in buying the paintings was to lure Professor Kamei into a trap and wait for an opportunity to assassinate him!
Boss Zhou only knew that the group of people who bought the paintings were strangers from other places, but there was one detail that puzzled him at the time.
Now when I think about it, everything is clear!
Because of Professor Kamei's death, Boss Zhou naturally didn't dare to tell anyone beforehand.
But now Chief Wu from the Secret Service Headquarters has come to the door and threatened to kill me if I didn't tell him.
In order to save his own life, Boss Zhou had no choice but to honestly recite this detail.
"Commander Wu, actually, when I sold them the paintings, I really didn't know who they were."
"They were introduced by Old Liu from the black market. They were very generous and gave me a thousand dollars straight away. I thought the price was right, so I sold it right away!"
"Although I didn't know their identities at the time, it seemed that among the group of people buying paintings there was a waiter from the Furui Tea House on Tamsui Road. I've been there for tea several times before, so I definitely wouldn't have mistaken him!"
Boss Zhou was very clear at this time that if there were any anti-Japanese elements who assassinated Professor Kamei, it was this group of people who bought the paintings.
Then this group of anti-Japanese elements might be hiding in the "Fu Rui Tea House" on Tamsui Road now!
If Boss Zhou can think of something so clearly, then naturally the traitorous spy Wu Yubao can also think of it immediately.
Feeling that this visit to Boss Zhou's house was quite fruitful, Wu Bao laughed triumphantly.
He left some people to search Boss Zhou's house, and some people immediately went to the "Fu Rui Teahouse" on Tamsui Road.
