The other two action teams were already on standby, waiting for his notification to set off at any time to swiftly eliminate the hidden Japanese agents.
Upon receiving the notification, the intelligence team immediately mobilized all its personnel, giving their all like a lion hunting a rabbit, and Huo Yueze did not give the other side any chance.
At the residence at No. 23 Xiafei Road, Zuo Gang personally led his men to break in, catching the enemy off guard. They were caught off guard by the enemy's strategy and were outnumbered. A burst of gunfire rang out, and none of the nine Japanese agents escaped. Eight were killed on the spot, and one was captured.
At the same time, four agents at two other ambush sites were also eliminated; three were killed and one was captured.
At this point, Iwai no Suke's intelligence team was completely wiped out, except for Iwai no Suke who escaped.
Gunshots rang out throughout the French Concession in an instant, causing such a commotion that the various police stations in the French Concession were in a state of chaos.
Upon hearing the gunshot, Detective Lei Daming of the Chief Police Station immediately mobilized his team to arrest the suspicious individuals.
Especially number 23 Avenue Joffre, which was an independent house, but when the police arrived, there were only corpses all over the ground and empty houses.
Lei Daming looked at the scene before him, the room was in complete disarray and bloodstains were everywhere. The strong smell of blood made him sneeze.
Zhang Puhe, the head of the field investigation team, led his men to inspect the scene and quickly came to him to report: "Detective, there are a total of eight bodies in this house. They are all young and strong men between the ages of twenty and thirty. None of them were wearing coats, and some were still wearing pajamas. There were almost no signs of resistance. It is clear that they were attacked and shot to death while they were resting."
Lei Daming nodded, then asked, "Can you tell who these people are?"
The population density in the Shanghai concessions was high, and most of them were transients. Most of those who came to the concessions to make a living were not locals, and their composition was complex. There was no complete household registration procedure.
Zhang Puhe hesitated for a moment before saying, "We found nine pistols and more than a hundred rounds of ammunition at the scene. They were all Nambu pistols used by the Japanese. The bullets used to kill them were of the same type, and judging from the caliber, they should be American Browning pistol bullets. Based on my judgment, these were all Japanese, and the ones who killed them should be special agents from Chongqing."
"It's those Japanese again!" Lei Daming felt a headache coming on. This was another diplomatic dispute, and he was afraid the Japanese wouldn't let it go so easily. He was going to be busy from now on. He shook his head helplessly. "Go and inspect the scene again. The Japanese will definitely come looking for trouble. Make sure all the information is complete and don't let them find any fault with it!"
"Yes!" Zhang Puhe nodded in acceptance.
Zhang Pu looked around, then called over his subordinate Liang Yi and whispered, "Go and call Sun Guanglin and Tian Anyi over here, let them see the situation."
Upon hearing the section chief's instructions, Liang Yi was taken aback, but immediately nodded. It seemed that these two lads had caught the section chief's eye and were about to be given some experience.
He quickly went out the door, came to the street, and called over the two people who were under martial law.
"Sun Guanglin, Tian Anyi, the section chief wants you to come in."
The two people waiting outside were startled when they heard this, but they didn't show any surprise on their faces. Sun Guanglin nodded in agreement, exchanged a glance with Tian Anyi, and then stepped into the room.
Zhang Puhe glanced at the two of them and said casually, "Go and observe how your colleagues do things, and learn from them. We're in the field operations team, and we'll be dealing with this kind of thing more often in the future."
The two hurriedly nodded in agreement, pretending to be clumsy as they followed behind. They quickly took in the scene inside the house and were shocked.
Zhang Puhe's guess was correct. Sun Guanglin and Tian Anyi were not from any other group; they were Japanese Special Higher Police agents sent into the Shanghai International Settlement by Kitaoka Ryoko.
However, their group and Iwai nosuke's group had no contact and did not know each other's specific situation.
They recognized the eight corpses lying in the room; they were all Japanese agents transferred from the North China Special Higher Police headquarters, and even had a good relationship with each other. They never expected that they would all die here today.
