Sun Guanglin and Tian Anyi were also highly trained agents, and they quickly grasped the situation on the scene. It was obvious that the Chongqing agents had discovered their presence and launched a surprise attack.
The bullets retrieved from the room were all Browning bullets, not a single one of the Confederate pistol bullets. This meant that his colleagues had been shot to death while they were still asleep, without any chance to fight back, and their deaths were extremely unjust.
This also suggests that the opponent was a formidable fighter. The two were cautious and careful, not daring to let anyone see any flaws, until they cleaned up the scene.
Zhang Puhe secretly observed their actions but found nothing unusual. However, it didn't matter. Such a big thing had happened. If these two people were really Japanese agents, they would definitely contact their superiors and report the matter. In this way, he could find out their background and know who they were.
After they finished investigating the shooting scene, they returned to the police station. It was already broad daylight. Lei Daming, who had been busy all night, gathered his district detectives together and briefed them on the case.
"Boss Lei, we found three bodies at two other crime scenes. The situation is basically the same as at No. 23 Xiafei Road. We also found Nambu pistols and bullets at the scene, but the gunmen were all Browning pistols. We checked and found that these dozen or so people were all unfamiliar faces, and the houses were all newly rented. They must have been in the concession for a short time." A police chief reported.
At this moment, Detective Fang Minda of the McLan Police Station also spoke up: "We also have a new situation here. Last night, a shooting also occurred in our McLan Police Station's jurisdiction. However, when we arrived at the scene, we found two bodies and a car. Both of them had Southern pistols on them, and each of them had been shot multiple times. The bullets that killed them were Browning pistols. However, we found a survivor near the scene!"
"Alive?"
Everyone was invigorated. The case was now very clear: just last night, Chinese and Japanese agents hiding in the concession engaged in a life-or-death struggle.
The result was quite obvious: the Chongqing agents had achieved a complete victory. Although the shooting locations were different, the victims were all Japanese agents, a fact that all the police officers present were very pleased to see.
The Japanese are the mortal enemies of all Chinese people. Now that they have been killed by Chinese agents, everyone is excited. However, as police officers in the French Concession, they also know that the Japanese will not let this go after so many people have died. The French consulate and the board of directors must give the Japanese an explanation, and the lives of these police officers will not be easy either.
Lei Daming quickly asked, "What exactly happened? Where is this survivor now?"
Fang Minda spread his hands and said helplessly, "When we arrived, we heard several gunshots. We followed the sound and found a man in a sewer. He was covered in blood and had gunshot wounds. He explained that he had encountered armed robbers, but we soon found two other bodies and a car nearby. We knew that things were not so simple, so we sent him to St. De Hospital for emergency treatment. He has now undergone surgery, and we don't know if he has woken up yet. I sent a few people to guard him at the hospital, and we will ask him for a statement when he wakes up."
At this point, Fang Minda was already regretting it. If he had known that the Japanese were involved, he shouldn't have saved this person in the first place. Now he didn't know whether the person he saved was friend or foe. If it was a Chinese agent, it would be fine, and he could consider it a good deed. But if it was a Japanese agent, wouldn't he be superfluous?
Zhang Puhe's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What is the caliber of the bullet that was taken out?"
"Yes, what's the caliber?" Radar Ming also asked.
Now it's clear: if the bullets taken from this person were Browning pistol caliber, then this person was a Japanese agent; if they were Nambu pistol caliber, then this person was a Chinese agent.
Fang Minda blushed and couldn't continue the conversation for a moment. Finally, he said, "At the time, I was too busy investigating the scene to do anything but arrange for my men to take the person to the hospital for treatment. Later, I received a phone call saying that the surgery was over, but the specific details are still unclear."
Fang Minda hadn't expected things to be this big, so he hadn't been keeping a close eye on things. It wasn't until he received the notification in the morning that he learned about the major incident that had occurred the previous night, which had even involved a showdown between Chinese and Japanese agents.
Lei Daming waved his hand and said, "I'll go to St. De's Hospital with you right away to check and confirm his identity!"
“Yes!” Fang Minda replied.
Lei Daming immediately adjourned the meeting and was preparing to go to Shunde Hospital with Fang Minda when Zhang Puhe rushed over and said, "Detective, let me go with you."
Zhang Puhe naturally wanted to see the condition of this survivor and confirm his identity. He was actually unaware of the Shanghai Intelligence Section's operation last night.
Because it was already late when Huo Yueze received Rong Hao's alarm message, he urgently dispatched three action teams to set up an ambush and prepare for the arrest operation. Zhang Puhe was an intelligence team member, and there was no task that required Zhang Puhe's assistance, so he was not notified.
However, Lei Daming did not agree to Zhang Puhe's request. He waved his hand and said, "Puhe, you should finish organizing the information you have. We'll be back soon, and I'll explain everything to you in detail when we get back!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Puhe could only smile slightly, nod in acceptance, and watch Lei Daming and the other man leave. He did not return to the police station, but instead quickly went to a car not far away, opened the door, and got in.
