The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 281 The scapegoat

Before the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau started questioning the two seriously injured and alive gunmen, the Japanese came to them on their own initiative.

Ask to talk.

Even if the two seriously injured gunmen did not speak, the autopsy reports of the three gunmen who had been killed were released.

The obvious Japanese characteristics on his body cannot be concealed at all.

Of course, if the Japanese side insists that this is a death without evidence, then it can also trace the identity of the gunman from the clothes and items he carried.

Especially the weapons and ammunition they used to kill...

There are still two people who are still alive. The only thing is to wait for them to wake up and spend a little more time. The patrol room has many means to make them speak. It depends on how far they go.

Cheng Mo knew very well that it was impossible to investigate the case and punish the mastermind behind it.

Unless you have the ability to take revenge yourself.

Cheng Mo is a party involved, so he is naturally qualified to participate, and his opinions are the main ones in the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau.

Cheng Mo didn't want to indulge in a momentary dispute. After all, this was not a frontal battlefield where the two armies were fighting, and there would be no compromise or concession at all.

This is just for Cheng Mo personally. There is also the issue of Japanese military police entering the concession wearing plain clothes and carrying weapons. This matter must also be resolved.

If the reconciliation conditions fail to meet expectations, the Ministry of Industry and Industry Bureau will obviously not agree to it.

This is the fatal thing, and it is impossible for Japan to agree to it.

If you stay, you have to compromise first, and don't confront the Japanese face to face. If you plan to leave, then how to do the next work? You can't be stared at like this all the time, you have to compromise.

This is not available yet.

As for compensation, in addition to compensating a car, an additional 10,000 yuan in emotional solace will be given.

This condition seems to be very favorable to Japan.

But for Cheng Mo, if he hadn't been lucky enough, his life would have been lost. The car was his own, so this didn't count as compensation. Ten thousand yuan was just a beggar!
Cheng Mo naturally disagreed.

That's a sign of irresponsibility. You can decide your own life and death. What about Su Moer's, and what about the 'Dark Fire' team?
Under the mediation of Okamoto, the Japanese director of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau, the Japanese Military Police Command in Shanghai sent people to secretly contact and negotiate with the police of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau.

The Japanese side should either withdraw the Japanese military police from the west of Shanghai, or set a rule. If something like this happens again in the future, the concession side will handle it on its own without any further notice from the Japanese side.

If you don't listen to your own people, how can you lead this team?
The Japanese side has offered an apology and compensation. The apology is naturally private and not public. Japan cannot afford to lose face. Once it is made public, someone will have to take responsibility for this matter. If it is less talked about, someone will lose their official position.

What can he do?
Go your own way.

The Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai set up a military police detachment in the west of Shanghai and repeatedly interfered with the normal work and life in the concession, which was the source of unrest.

Moreover, it was not up to him. Dai Yunong had already issued an order, telling him to be patient and put his latent mission first.

In two years at most, the Japanese would launch a massive attack on the concession, and he would have to consider whether to leave or stay at that time.

The first contact between the two parties ended on bad terms.

But no one said that they would terminate the negotiations directly, which shows that everyone left some room and wanted to turn this matter into a major issue.

Then, there was a second contact soon, saying that the compensation was raised to 30,000 yuan, and the other conditions remained the same. As for the situation where Japanese military police plainclothes entered the concession privately, the concession party could repatriate them or even restrict them from entering again. If a crime occurs In this case, he must be extradited to Japan for disposal!
The concession authorities refused, and Japanese military police in plainclothes entered the concession to engage in illegal intelligence gathering activities. They were spies. Treating spies is not the same as treating soldiers. If a spy is caught, unless the host country agrees, what to do with it is the power of the host country and region.

The negotiation of disposal rights had nothing to do with Cheng Mo, but he was naturally dissatisfied with the compensation figure, so he immediately increased it to 100,000.

No need to negotiate if it is less than 100,000, and the car being compensated must be bulletproof, which can be regarded as a guarantee for future purchases.

If you don't accept it, just announce the case to the public and let the whole world judge. Anyway, one of them has already obtained a confession.

Japanese military police are also human beings, and there are moments when they cannot bear it.

They also thought that even if they confessed, the concession authorities would not dare do anything to him, so they confessed.

Get the hard evidence.

Japan has begun to soften. Once the truth of the case is announced to the outside world, Japan will be embarrassed internationally.

It is not uncommon for national intelligence agencies to engage in assassinations, but they are usually carried out secretly. Once someone is caught with evidence, it is a shameful thing.

What's more, this time they were trying to assassinate a police officer. Not only did they not succeed, they failed, which was even more embarrassing.

The Japanese side compromised and agreed to the compensation request. They also made changes to the relevant agreement regarding the entry of plainclothes Japanese military police into the concession, so that they were legally unable to run amok in the concession.

This can be regarded as the best result of the game between the concession authorities and the Japanese side in the past year.

But this was all the result of Cheng Mo almost losing his life.

If it were just a painless compensation, they might continue to make small moves behind the scenes, but this time the price paid was high and painful. If they want to do this next time, they will have to consider the consequences of failure.

It is probably impossible to get the Japanese to stop, unless they voluntarily give up retaliation against themselves, but they can still do it if they stop for a while.

However, Japan was able to take the initiative to "extend an olive branch" this time, which somewhat surprised him. According to Japan's usual practice, isn't it not to shed tears without seeing the coffin?
Take the initiative to reconcile?

Is there something going on here that he doesn't know about?

When Cheng Mo was puzzled, Japan's compensation was in place, one hundred thousand yen, and the bulletproof car needed to be ordered, and it would take at least half a year to get it.

Cheng Mo is not in a hurry, he can just buy an ordinary car and drive it.

As soon as the compensation was paid, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau handed over the bodies of the three killed gunmen to the Japanese side, and the two seriously wounded were repatriated directly and were never allowed to enter the concession.

Although the matter is over, the case must be explained to the public.

There must be a culprit in the case!
Who is the most suitable scapegoat?
Naturally, it is the military commander, Blue Clothes Club.

This result was not what Cheng Mo wanted, but he couldn't stop it because it was also the result of discussions between the Ministry of Industry and the Japanese side.

Anyway, the Blue Clothes Club has committed more than one crime, and it doesn't hurt to have one more. It doesn't itch if there are too many lice.

The reason why the Ministry of Industry and Commerce agreed to do this was because even if they said so, Lan Yi Society would not have any objections. Cheng Mo was the middleman who secretly contacted Lan Yi.

As for Dai Yunong, he won't have any objections. This can minimize the relationship between Cheng Mo and the Blue Clothes Club (when there may be suspicion).
