The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 347: Grief and Honor after Death

As soon as he went to work the next day, Pride called Cheng Mo and asked him not to interfere too much in the case of Lu Liankui's murder.

Cheng Mo asked tentatively to see if Pride knew anything.

But Pride didn't elaborate.

It seemed that there was something behind Lu Liankui's death, otherwise Pride would not have reminded him.

Lu Liankui has been in the patrol room for many years, so he must have enemies. The possibility of enemies seeking revenge and killing people is very high, and Pride doesn't want him to be too involved.

However, he couldn't stay out of it at the moment.

As soon as he finished the phone call with Pride, Liu Shaokui came over with the transcript of yesterday's on-site investigation.

"Brother Cheng, you are a master at solving crimes. No one can help me with Lao Lu's case except you." Liu Shaokui jumped in as soon as he walked in.

"Old Liu, have you found anything?"

"Let's check as many as we can. If we really can't find the murderer, there's nothing we can do. You and I are not gods." Cheng Mo said, "People die every day in Shanghai. How many people die in vain, what else can we do?" Do you understand each one?”

"I will definitely carry the coffin, but you don't know if you want to or not." Cheng Mo said, "Jiajun calls me uncle, I can't ignore it."

"I really don't want to take over his business. It's not for free. I have to buy it with real money."

"When will Lao Lu's funeral be held? Do you want me to give him a ride then?"

"Yes, as long as we try our best, there is nothing we can do if we can't find it." Liu Shaokui left with the transcript.

This card game will be difficult to form in the future, one person is missing.

Lu Liankui had already chosen a cemetery for himself before he died, so apart from being a little hasty, the funeral was actually fine.

"According to the recollections of witnesses at the scene, there were three gunmen in total. They suddenly rushed over diagonally from across the road. I don't know how many shots were fired. Anyway, the three of them had their faces covered and did not reveal their true faces. After the shooting The gun ran away so fast that the patrol officers on the street didn't even have time to react, and the person was gone."

Cheng Mo naturally wanted to participate.

"I don't know. I've been busy with other things these days. He asked me to play card games several times but I didn't go. You have a good relationship with him. You should know better than me." Cheng Mo said.

Looking for another card partner?

"The gunman ran in that direction." Cheng Mo understood immediately upon hearing this that the assassination was premeditated, and there might be someone who could help the gunman escape. Unless he was captured on the spot, this case would be really difficult to solve.

Cheng Mo shook his head. This was not his original thought.

Liu Shaokui sighed: "If I knew, I wouldn't ask you. He can entrust his business to you. I think your relationship is extraordinary."

"One is heading west and two are heading south. The ones running separately are all men," Liu Shaokui said.

"What about this case?" Liu Shaokui said with a headache.

"Didn't you chase me?"

"Are there any other clues at the scene?"

The date for Lu Liankui's funeral was quickly decided, three days later.

"No." Liu Shaokui shook his head, "By the way, do you know if Lao Lu has offended anyone recently?"

"Why didn't you chase them? Not only did they chase them, they also set up checkpoints and intercepted them. These three people are too familiar with the roads and environment of the concession." Liu Shaokui said helplessly, showing his hands.

On that day, there were many people seeing him off, including high-level officials from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, including General Director Fan Keling, General Manager Philip and Deputy General Manager Tony Kaiziwei.

The Japanese side also sent people over, and the puppet Shanghai Avenue Municipal Government also sent people over.

With such momentum, the number of people mourning the funeral was several miles long. It was quite rare for a Chinese patrol officer from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce to be so mournful and honorable after his death. Cheng Mo knew that most of the British people were here to patrol the Chinese concessions. Everyone was dead, so there was no loss in giving them some superficial honor, and it could win over a wave of people.

After Lu Liankui was buried, there was still no clue about his assassin.

The three gunmen seemed to have disappeared.

Most people suspect that this is the work of the Blue Clothes Club of the Military Command, but the Military Command has just had a new person in charge and the organization is being adjusted.

Moreover, after the explosion of No. 76, the Blue Shirt Club's actions to punish traitors almost stopped...

This also made No. 76 want to cause trouble with the Blue Clothes Club, but the punches he punched were not strong enough, and he felt as if he was stuck in a pile of cotton.

Lin Shiqun knew very well that if this energy lasted for a long time, it would inevitably be vented. At that time, he would no longer be able to use the mourning soldiers' energy.

It is simply a shame and humiliation for No. 76 to suffer such a big loss.

……

Cheng Mo did not rush Lu Jiajun. Although he verbally promised to take over part of the Lu family's property, of course he would not take it for nothing. He bought it with money.

But he won't take the initiative to mention it. If the Lu family is unwilling, he won't force it. In fact, he doesn't value these properties that much.

After the acquisition, you still need to operate it, and you can't do a loss-making business.

What Cheng Mo values ​​​​is the manpower and influence Lu Liankui left in the patrol room. These are the people he needs to conquer and win over.

Lu Liankui still has many disciples and disciples. After he leaves, these people must have plans to start their own business, but some people also want to join others. After all, it is easy to enjoy the shade under the big tree.

There are not many people who are qualified to accept these people. Cheng Mo is the least qualified, but the one with the greatest potential. No matter it is You Agen, Tan Shaoliang or Liu Shaokui, they are not as good as him with the British, and even the Japanese. Difference.

Therefore, if you don't have the idea of ​​starting your own business, it would be best to follow Cheng Mo.

Of course, in addition to the people in the patrol room, Lu Liankui also had people outside who helped him run his property and look after his home and home.

It's hard to talk about these people. Among them are Lu Liankui's informants and Bao Qiao. Cheng Mo naturally wants these.

As for those who usually do extraordinary things, he is not willing to take over.

Who wants it, who doesn't want it, and how to refuse it all test his skill and ability.

He first asked Xu Qinghe to let him know that those who were willing to work with him would receive the same treatment as before. Lu Liankui would give him no less, or even more. If he didn't want to, he wouldn't force it. All he had to do was say, The world is easy to navigate.

Then let Xu Qinghe screen people.

Then set rules for them.

……

Finally, Lu Jiajun came to see Cheng Mo in person carrying gifts.

It was late at night, and I came alone with two bodyguards.

After more than ten days, Lu Jiajun, who was originally fair and fat, has lost a lot of weight. His eye sockets are sunken, his face is dark, and bright red bloodshot eyes can be seen. It can be seen how Lu Liankui has been living in the days after his death.

This is what Cheng Mo said. Whoever took advantage of the Lu family after Lu Liankui's death just couldn't get along with him. Do you want to try his revenge?
Cheng Mo is a senior member of the Qing Gang. He is senior enough and has a good relationship with Boss Du. Who in Shanghai doesn't know about the cooperation between Loulan Film and Television and Lu Jingshi?

He himself is a Chinese detective of the Political Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, with a profound background. If he had not been involved in any gray business, he would probably be the next rising Green Gang tycoon in Shanghai where the three tycoons are gradually fading away.

Now, many people already call him "Mr. Xiao Cheng" behind his back.
