Chapter 1997 Special Operations Department, Nanjing Station
"Where was it caught?" Masato Nagashima asked Junto Honda.
“The ridge road not far south of Fuqiao Police Station,” Honda Junto said.
"Is it related to the explosion at the Fuqiao Police Station?" Masato Nagashima asked immediately.
He had previously received the latest report that during the gunfight at Shipopo Temple, all the officers from Fuqiao Police Station detonated explosives, killing and injuring four people. The Fuqiao Police Station was in chaos, which directly prevented the Fuqiao Police Station, which was closest to Shipopo Temple, from sending reinforcements.
Therefore, Nagashima Masato immediately concluded that the explosion at the Fuqiao Police Station was a premeditated attack by the enemy, the purpose of which was to block the reinforcement of the Fuqiao Police Station towards Shipopo Temple.
"The intelligence headquarters also tends to believe that this person is related to the explosion at the Fuqiao Police Station," Honda Junto said.
"Is there any direct evidence?" Nagashima Masato asked as he walked.
……
"The man was covered in dirt, with abrasions on his face, hands and feet, and when he saw the Special Agent Headquarters checking him, he turned and ran away," Honda Junto said. "Sun Qiang from the Special Agent Headquarters has a very keen nose; he smelled gunpowder on the man."
"Lead the way," said Nagashima Masato, his eyes lighting up.
Then he gave an order to one of his men to continue questioning Li Ping and taking her statement.
……
Fuqiao Police Station.
The scene was noisy and chaotic.
A large section of the wall in the backyard collapsed, and several police officers who were urinating, smoking, and boasting in the corner were buried in the rubble during the explosion, resulting in two deaths and two injuries.
The Special Operations Headquarters apprehended a suspect and was preparing to take him back to No. 21 Yihe Road for interrogation when the Special Higher Police intervened directly, forcing them to place the suspect at the Fuqiao Police Station and hand him over to the Special Higher Police for on-site interrogation.
……
"Major Nagashima." Peng Yonghua recognized Nagashima Masato, and he quickly stepped forward to salute him.
"So it was Section Chief Peng leading the team." Nagashima Masato nodded. "Thank you for your hard work this time."
"Major Long Island," Peng Yonghua said with a forced smile, "You see, we arrested him on our side, so shouldn't we interrogate him together?"
He was indignant, but intimidated by the Special Higher Police's power, he dared not refuse when the Special Higher Police were trying to abduct him. He could only settle for second best and ask to be interrogated together with the Special Higher Police.
"Bag-ya-luo!" Honda Junto shouted from the side, "What right do you have to interrogate our prisoners?"
"Fuck your mother..." Before Peng Yonghua could speak, his subordinate Liu Xiaoqing couldn't help but curse out loud.
He had never seen such a shameless person.
Then, Liu Xiaoqing's forehead was pointed directly at by the dark muzzle of a gun.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, misunderstanding," Peng Yonghua quickly said with a smile. "That's just his catchphrase, he meant no harm, he meant no harm, and he wasn't talking to the Japanese officer."
“Honda.” Masato Nagashima glanced at Junto Honda.
Honda Junto snorted coldly and put away his Nanbu sidearm.
……
"Section Chief Peng, please go back," said Nagashima Masato with a smile, speaking politely.
"Then..." Peng Yonghua forced a smile and asked cautiously, "Where was the medicine applied?"
"Sayonara, sayonara!" Nagashima Masato laughed heartily and waved at Peng Yonghua.
Peng Yonghua turned around, his face darkening, and left with his men.
"Fuck you!" Liu Xiaoqing cursed again.
“If you keep cursing, believe me, the Japanese will really shoot you dead.” Peng Yonghua cursed. “Even if they shoot you dead, don’t expect anything. Do you believe the station chief will have to tell the Japanese that it was a good thing they killed you?”
Liu Xiaoqing opened her mouth, but didn't dare to say anything more.
……
"Where is Sun Qiang?" Peng Yonghua suddenly asked.
"They detained him by the Japanese. The Japanese said they needed Team Leader Sun's help with something," one of the subordinates said.
"Japanese people speak so politely?" Liu Xiaoqing didn't believe it.
Peng Yonghua glared at Liu Xiaoqing, who dared not say another word.
Once outside the Fuqiao Police Station, Peng Yonghua spat on the ground and cursed, "What a piece of trash!"
"Section Chief, are we just going to let this go like this?"
"Forget it? Forget it, what else do you plan to do?" Peng Yonghua said irritably.
However, a few minutes later, Peng Yonghua's eyes lit up. He called one of his men to his side and said, "Go to the military police headquarters and find Mr. Koizumi directly. Just tell him this..."
……
Masato Nagashima looked at the suspect who was bound hand and foot.
This was a thin man with bruises and swelling on his face. It looked like he had not only suffered minor scrapes and bruises, but had also been punched and kicked.
"Did you find any good citizen certificates?" Nagashima Masato asked.
"Reporting, Major, no," Nakano Yuukuro said.
"Did this person tell us his name?" Nagashima Masato asked.
“He said his name was Zhang Lei,” Nakano Yukuro said. “He kept protesting his innocence, saying that he was just passing by but was arrested for no reason.”
With a wave of his hand, Nagashima Masato tactfully stepped forward.
"Are you sure this person smells of gunpowder?" Nagashima Masato asked.
"Reporting to the officer." Sun Qiang sniffed again and continued, "There's no mistake, it's gunpowder, or more precisely, the smell of an explosion."
"Very good." Nagashima Masato nodded, waved his hand, and signaled that Sun Qiang could leave.
This Sun Qiang is an extraordinary person at the Nanjing station of the Special Agent Headquarters. He has an extremely sensitive nose, even more sensitive than the noses of the Empire's wolfhounds.
Of course, most importantly, this is a human. Dogs can't talk, but humans can.
……
Masato Nagashima went behind the table, plopped down in a chair, and began examining the items on the table.
These were all found on this man named Zhang Lei.
There are only two cigarettes left in the Sanpaotai cigarette box.
A box of matches, with about half a match still inside.
There were also a few Central Reserve Bank notes and two nickel coins.
In addition, there were half-eaten sesame seed cakes.
Nagashima Masato picked up the sesame seed cake, smelled it, and then suddenly laughed.
"Have Sun Qiang come over here again," said Nagashima Masato.
Soon, Sun Qiang was brought back again.
……
"Major." Sun Qiang bowed respectfully to Nagashima Masato, having already learned of Nagashima Masato's identity from the Special Higher Police agent.
“Smell these things,” said Masato Nagashima, pointing to the items on the table.
"Yes."
Sun Qiang didn't dare to be negligent and quickly stepped forward to sniff carefully.
……
"This sesame seed cake is only half full; it smells like it was baked no more than an hour ago," Sun Qiang said.
"Anything else?" asked Nagashima Masato.
"The sesame seed cake smells like dog meat," Sun Qiang said.
"Are you sure it's dog meat?" Nagashima Masato asked immediately.
He had just taken a sniff and could smell meat, but he couldn't be sure what kind of meat it was, which is why he thought of letting Sun Qiang come in to smell it.
Sun Qiang showed a hint of embarrassment, or rather, a cautious embarrassment.
“Say what you mean,” said Nagashima Masato, his tone slightly gentle.
He was still willing to show some leniency towards an extraordinary person like Sun Qiang.
“I know there’s a dog meat restaurant in Longzi Alley run by people from Peixian,” Sun Qiang said. “I’ve eaten there twice. The meat aroma on this sesame seed cake smells just like that dog meat restaurant.”
"Are you sure?" Honda Junto asked in surprise from the side.
“I’m sure.” Sun Qiang thought for a moment and nodded vigorously. “The dog meat restaurants in Peixian use different braising liquid. I can confirm that.”
“Very good.” Nagashima Masato nodded in satisfaction. “Continue.”
"There's soup on the cigarette pack, so food or soup must have spilled on it," Sun Qiang said, taking a cigarette out of the pack and sniffing it carefully. "This cigarette must have fallen on the ground."
……
"You can smell that?" Junto Honda asked.
"Reporting to the officer, I can tell," Sun Qiang said. "There are mud spots on this cigarette."
As he spoke, he suddenly let out a soft "hmm" and took a closer sniff.
"Major," Sun Qiang said, "the cigarette has a foul smell, the smell of rabbit urine."
"Anything else?" asked Nagashima Masato.
"That's all," Sun Qiang said, after sniffing the other things carefully again and shaking his head.
"Very good, thank you for your hard work." Nagashima Masato smiled and nodded, signaling his men to take Sun Qiang away.
"Sun-san," Honda Junto suddenly said from the side, "Don't say a word about what happened here."
"Understood, understood," Sun Qiang said quickly, smiling and bowing.
"Here you go." Nagashima Masato suddenly walked over and handed two Japanese yen to Sun Qiang.
"Ah, thank you, thank you for your generous gift, Major!" Sun Qiang was overjoyed and said loudly. Then he walked out holding the Japanese yen high, as if he were holding up the greatest honor and grace.
……
“Send someone to investigate.” After thinking for a moment, Nagashima Masato said to Honda Junto, “Go to the dog meat restaurant that Sun Qiang mentioned first, and try to find out Zhang Lei’s whereabouts as soon as possible.”
"Understood." Honda Junto nodded, then asked, "Um, what about rabbit pee?"
“This clue is also important,” Masato Nagashima said. “However, the most important thing now is to interrogate him as soon as possible.”
"Yes, sir." Honda Junto nodded. The major was right. While investigations into whereabouts were important, the most crucial thing was interrogation. If they could quickly get Zhang Lei to talk, that would be more important and effective than anything else.
"Let Yuji Muto conduct the interrogation," Masato Nagashima said after a moment's thought.
"Major, Yuji Muto is heartbroken over his brother's death, and I'm worried he might lose his temper and act rashly," Junto Honda said.
“It’s alright, we’re using his anger,” Masato Nagashima said. “Tell Yuuji Muto that this man might have clues about the killer who murdered Yuichi.”
He glanced at Zhang Lei, who seemed to be eavesdropping nearby, and said, "I need to get Zhang Lei's statement as quickly as possible. He can use any means necessary, but he must ensure that the man is alive and talking."
“Understood,” Honda Junto said.
Yuji Muto is one of the three best torturers in the Nanjing Special Higher Police. Whenever Yuji Muto gets ruthless, the suspect's fate will be extremely miserable.
This person had better speak up as soon as possible, otherwise, even if they do speak up at the last minute, their extremely severe injuries will make it difficult for them to survive.
……
Zhuqiao Bridge.
"They fired?" Zhang Ping sniffed.
"Born in the Year of the Dog?" Cheng Qianfan glanced at Zhang Ping and joked.
"You're so cheeky." Zhang Ping smiled. "What's wrong?"
"Something's wrong. The enemy may have already entangled Nanjing Station," Cheng Qianfan said, his expression serious.
"Is the situation serious?" Zhang Ping asked immediately.
"We have already implemented the emergency plan immediately," Cheng Qianfan said.
Zhang Ping nodded. Comrade 'Flame' was extremely cautious in his work, which directly made 'Xiao Mian's' Special Affairs Division the unit with the lowest accident and casualty rate within the Military Intelligence Bureau system.
"Go take a shower," Zhang Ping said. "I have a keen sense of smell; I can smell a faint scent of gunpowder on you. Perhaps the enemy also has such experts."
Cheng Qianfan nodded.
He was there to meet his lover, so it was perfectly normal for him to take a shower before leaving.
……
"Brother Fan." Li Hao saw that Brother Fan looked refreshed and quickly got out of the car and opened the door.
"Back to Yihe Road," Cheng Qianfan instructed Li Hao as he got into the car.
"Brother Fan, you've taken a shower. Be careful your wife doesn't see you and think things will get complicated," Li Hao thought for a moment, but still couldn't help but remind him.
"Is it obvious?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
Li Hao nodded.
"I'm hungry, let's go get something to eat before going back," Cheng Qianfan said with a smile after thinking for a moment.
"Then we should bring some treats for Xiaobao and Xiaozhima," Li Hao said.
"Just remember that," Cheng Qianfan said with a smile. "Xiao Bao and Xiao Zhima are even closer to you than they are to me."
……
In the middle of the night.
A sudden downpour began.
At dawn, the downpour stopped.
Nagashima Masato hurried into the interrogation room of the Fuqiao Police Station.
"Did you say anything?" he asked Yuji Muto.
At this moment, Zhang Lei, who was tied to the rack, had already fainted and was completely unrecognizable as a human being.
There was a large puddle of feces and urine on the ground, caused by the prisoner's incontinence due to torture.
……
“This guy is a tough nut to crack; he hasn’t spoken yet.” Yuji Muto shook his head and said, “However, while he was unconscious, he murmured some key words that I think are very important, so I sent someone to invite the major over.”
"What important keywords?" Nagashima Masato casually took a page from Muto Yuji's hand.
There was only one line of text written on the paper.
……
"Special Operations Department... Nanjing Station." Nagashima Masato's eyes widened suddenly.
Special Operations Department?
"You suspect that the Special Intelligence Bureau this person mentioned subconsciously refers to the Shanghai Special Intelligence Bureau of the Military Intelligence Bureau?" he asked Yuji Muto with a serious expression.
“That’s my suspicion,” Yuji Muto said.
“But the Special Intelligence Division is in Shanghai, and the Special Intelligence Division is in Nanjing…” Nagashima Masato fell into deep thought.
"Major," Honda Junto, who had been silent until now, said, "The Nanjing branch of the Military Intelligence Bureau has long been wiped out. This Nanjing station could indeed be under the control of the Special Affairs Bureau, or it cannot be ruled out that Dai Chunfeng ordered the reconstruction of the Nanjing station and then had Xiao Mian temporarily take charge of it."
"You suspect that this Nanjing station is temporarily under the jurisdiction of the Shanghai Special Operations Department?" Nagashima Masato pondered before speaking.
"Based on this limited information, we can only speculate for now," Honda Junto said.
"Continue the torture," Nagashima Masato said with an extremely serious expression. "We must pry open Zhang Lei's mouth."
He said to Yuji Muto, "I'll be right here, watching you interrogate him."
