Chapter 989: The Situation Is Out of Control (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Li Zhiqun naturally has his own reasoning, aside from Luo Xingchao's special identity, Li Zhiqun still admires his talent very much.
Luo Xingchao's outstanding ability and shrewdness in several incidents impressed Li Zhiqun, and he had to admit that the young man in front of him was not inferior to him in terms of intelligence ability, at least among these people in the secret service headquarters, there was no comparison with him.
The most important thing is that because of the leakage of the news of Wang Hanmin's arrest, he has always suspected that the inner ghost is likely to be his cronies, so he didn't want to use his own people to do the screening work, but chose Luo Xingchao, who had a transcendent status.
He opened his mouth to explain: "Xingchao, we are all engaged in intelligence, and everyone is clear about the situation of the Shanghai Intelligence Section, so I won't say more, the military command is willing to use this department to take action, and the determination is not ordinary, we can't take it lightly!"
Shicai is brave and unscrupulous, reckless, and good at acting, but in the end he is a layman, and he is far worse off when he does the screening work, as for Zhang Jingyao, his work ability is too average, and since he was appointed as the director of the third division, there is no one who can handle it, it is really useless, Lao Sun has just been killed, there are not many people available around me, and now I have to work hard for you, I believe that with your ability, it should not let me down. ”
When Luo Xingchao heard this, it was also in line with his own mind, although he had prepared before, but if he really conducted an investigation and screening, if there was a flaw, it was really hard to say, everything was afraid of accidents, and now it was best to do it by himself, of course, it was the best, and when the time came, he would just find an excuse to prevaricate in the past, and Li Zhiqun couldn't say anything.
So he nodded happily and agreed: "Okay, since the director can trust me, I will do my best." ”
Li Zhiqun was also quite happy to see Luo Xingchao agree, he is now lacking in skills, and he can't take care of many things, and it is easier to share Luo Xingchao's burden.
"Okay, you will screen it immediately, I will go to the assassination scene now to take a look, see if I can find some clues, find the traces of the Shanghai Intelligence Bureau, let's act separately!"
Luo Xingchao nodded in agreement, got up and exited the office, Li Zhiqun sent him out, and just returned to his seat, the phone on the desk rang.
Li Zhiqun picked up the phone, but Zhou Fushan's angry voice rang on the other side of the phone.
"Li Zhiqun, you are untrustworthy and provoked again, you have to take full responsibility for what you have done..."
Zhou Fushan jumped like thunder over there, shouting at Li Zhiqun, which made Li Zhiqun surprised, and in an instant, a bad premonition hit his heart, and when the other party's tone paused slightly, he asked out loud: "Minister Zhou, what happened?" Can you be specific? ”
"What are you pretending to be confused? Huxi police station explosion, didn't you do it? You have already killed Kang Dongting, and now you have killed Xie Zi'an, and killed two police chiefs in a row, do you really think that I, the minister of police, am a decoration? I'm telling you, if you really fight again, the outcome is still unknown, don't be too complacent! ”
Blowing up and killing Xie Zi'an?
Li Zhiqun stood up from his seat all of a sudden, who is Xie Zi'an? Of course he knew, not just clear, he had dealt with him many times.
This person is the head of the Huxi Police Bureau, and he is the number one person in the Huxi area.
For various reasons, Huxi has always been the worst area in Shanghai, and the people living here are in the middle and lower levels of society, most of them are citizens who have no livelihood and no assets, and they are similar to slums in Shanghai.
At the same time, it is also an area where gangsters are rampant, brothels, tobacco houses, casinos and other illegal industries, most of which are opened in western Shanghai, theft, abduction, homicide and other illegal crimes, are also commonplace, so that in Shanghai, the citizens call this place "bad land", which means a place of sin, which can be seen in general!
Xie Zi'an, as the head of the Huxi Police Bureau, can be regarded as the most powerful figure in the local area, and every year he extracts a large amount of shares and benefits from various illegal industries in Huxi, and he makes a lot of money.
The Huxi Police Department, to which he belongs, is also one end of this chain of interests, and police officers at all levels collect benefits and fees, and collusion between police and bandits has become the norm.
However, this situation can no longer be maintained after the establishment of the No. 76 Secret Service Headquarters, the reason is very simple, Li Zhiqun urgently needs a large amount of funds in order to expand the power of the Secret Service Headquarters, so he set his sights on this place in western Hu, coupled with the background of his disciples of the Green Gang, with the support of the Japanese, he quickly collected all kinds of black industries in western Huxi and occupied all the interests.
With Li Zhiqun's domineering, how could he spit out the fat in his mouth, he swallowed all the benefits alone, and he had no intention of distributing them to others at all, so he suddenly cut off the financial route of the Huxi Police Department.
For this reason, the Huxi Police Department headed by Xie Zi'an had many conflicts with the secret service headquarters in the early days of its establishment, and there were even bloodsheds, but in the end, Li Zhiqun personally came forward, and Xie Zi'an, who was pressed, had to bow his head.
Later, as the power of the No. 76 Agent Headquarters became stronger and stronger, Xie Zi'an completely lost this heart and honestly accepted this reality.
But today, Zhou Fushan suddenly said that he blew up and killed Xie Zi'an? What else is the explosion of the Huxi Police Station? Li Zhiqun was a little stunned all of a sudden!
Where does this begin? Could it be that the Shanghai Intelligence Bureau also took action against Zhou Fushan and Ding Mo's forces?
Thinking of this, Li Zhiqun felt that he had to explain clearly, he was not afraid of Zhou Fushan, but there was no need to take the blame for the Shanghai Intelligence Bureau.
So he hurriedly explained: "Minister Zhou, the explosion of the Huxi Police Station was definitely not done by me, and I also inform you of one thing, just two hours ago, my two squad leaders, Wu Zhenming and Pan Gongya, were assassinated on the street, I suspect that someone did something from it, I originally wanted to call you to ask about it!" ”
Hearing Li Zhiqun say this, Zhou Fushan was also taken aback, his two main cadres were assassinated, he knew this kind of thing, Li Zhiqun would not lie, that is to say, things are indeed not as simple as imagined.
So Zhou Fushan also roughly described the situation over there, it turned out that just ten minutes ago, in the office of the chief of the Huxi Police Bureau, there was a sudden explosion, Xie Zi'an and two police chiefs were killed on the spot, and the police station was suddenly in chaos.
Because of the previous incident of Wu Shicai's killing of the police chief Kang Dongting, as well as the incident that had just occurred in a large-scale fire with the No. 76 agent headquarters, the Huxi Police Department was also involved, and there were many casualties, so the police all thought that this was another provocation and revenge by the secret service headquarters, and they were excited, and reported the matter to Zhou Fushan, demanding that Zhou Fushan uphold justice.
Another police chief died, which gave Zhou Fushan a headache, and his subordinates and followers were killed one after another, even if he was a slick and experienced politician who had been in the sea for many years, he couldn't bear this repeated provocation, so he called and directly questioned Li Zhiqun.
But now it seems that there is a reason for the incident, Li Zhiqun carefully explained the cause and effect, and told Zhou Fushan about Wang Hanmin's unsuccessful poisoning, and Zhou Fushan believed his words, and each put down the phone and dealt with a bunch of troublesome things.
Li Zhiqun couldn't help but rub his temples, he was so troubled by a series of things that it took him a long time to remember that he still had to go to the assassination scene to check, so he got up and walked out of the office, and rushed to the nearest Fuyuan Street with a group of subordinates to check.
But he didn't expect that things were not as simple as he imagined, just after he left the secret service headquarters, the situation in Huxi changed abruptly, and the flat ground made waves again, and the changes were so fast that even Zhou Fushan was unexpected, so that things got out of control all of a sudden.
Zhou Fushan called and ordered the Huxi Police Department to adopt a restrained attitude and wait for new instructions, but his attitude was not recognized by the Huxi police.
The Huxi police have been bullied by the secret service headquarters for a long time, resulting in the cutting off of their financial livelihoods, as well as the previous participation in the fire and the death and injury of many colleagues, and Xie Zi'an, who was killed today, coupled with the encouragement of people with intentions, many factors were mixed together, and the long-standing contradictions finally broke out.
The Huxi police quickly organized themselves spontaneously, concentrated all their police forces, and began to sweep the local casinos, confiscate gambling funds, and arrest the organizers.
Casinos are the most profitable industry in western Shanghai, and they are also Li Zhiqun's money bags, he is most concerned about the supervision of casinos, and there are a large number of spectators.
When the two sides confronted each other and were in a stalemate, someone in the police team suddenly opened fire, and the personnel of the secret service headquarters were knocked down, like a spark sprinkled in an oil pot, and the next situation was completely out of control, and another fire between the two sides broke out again!
However, this time the scale far exceeded the previous night encounter, the number of participants was wide, the intensity of the battle, all completely beyond the planners' expectations, the war spread again and again, from Changning Street in western Shanghai to Duqiao Street, the police station side was obviously prepared for the battle, fully armed, with sufficient weapons and ammunition, and the other side was defeated and retreated, with heavy casualties.
The Second Action Brigade stationed at the Secret Service Headquarters in Huxi, because the captain Wu Zhenming had just been assassinated on the street, did not make the fastest response when the dragons were leaderless, so that the Secret Service Headquarters suffered a big loss.
When Li Zhiqun knew the news and spoke to Zhou Fushan again, he knew that Zhou Fushan could no longer control the situation, and in desperation, he had no choice but to send all parties to support Huxi, and at this time, the Huxi area had become a pot of porridge, with gunshots and explosions everywhere, and the casualties on both sides were difficult to count.
As soon as the support arrived, the secret service headquarters organized an effective counterattack, the police in western Huxi saw that it was not good, and asked for support everywhere, the police officers in the police department, each with their own contacts and relationships, under the launch, the nearest southern branch had to send people to support, first involved in the war, and then the Nanshi police station also sent people to participate in the war, the conflict escalated again and again, the scene became more and more out of control, the war has not been limited to the western part of Shanghai, and gradually spread to the southern urban area.
In just a few hours, the situation became more and more unbearable, Zhou Fushan and Li Zhiqun could not control the situation, the number of casualties on both sides skyrocketed, more and more people were involved, and the scale and scope of the conflict became larger and wider.
In the end, Li Zhiqun and Zhou Fushan had to ask Qingqing Zhengliang for help, and Qingqing Zhengliang knew that the situation was serious, so he had to pull down his face and ask for help from the garrison troops and the military police.
So the gendarmerie troops stationed in the eastern urban area, as well as the garrison troops stationed in the western suburbs, intervened forcefully, and finally with some efforts, before dark, the situation was brought under control, and many of the ringleaders were arrested at the same time.
So far, a great turmoil that has swept the entire downtown area of Shanghai has finally come to an end.
