Chapter 173: Fraudulent Strength

When Xi Chen heard Zhang Lei’s question, he knew that his words had already worked.

"Yes." Xi Chen affirmed his answer.

Zhang Lei couldn't laugh anymore, he sat on the stool and fell into deep thought.

The owner of the Fushou Hall had a batch of opium that was robbed outside the wharf. Zhang Lei only got the news in the past few days.

Why did Zhang Lei know?

That's because there is an underground party who uses a lot of money to buy a batch of medicines from the black market.

When Zhang Lei and his team received this news on the 76th, they naturally had to investigate it.

Finally, they found out that the owner of the Fushou Hall was robbed of a batch of opium and suffered heavy losses.

Moreover, these opium has been sold to some tobacco shops in Shanghai, and all of them have been exchanged for money.

Zhang Lei and the others began to investigate the direction of money and found that the money had been taken to buy medicines. That's how Zhang Lei and the others knew about it.

However, the boss of the Fushou Club was robbed of his opium.

Now Xi Chen said that the owner of the Fushou Hall had met Dunkaibo, and Dunkaibo was dead again.

Zhang Lei had to think more about something.

"Come." Zhang Lei shouted outside.

A man came in outside and possessed him by Zhang Lei. Zhang Lei whispered to him: "Call the boss of Fushou Hall and ask him what he had said to Dunkaibo when he met Dunkaibo?"

"yes."

When Zhang Lei's people went out, Xi Chen pretended that he didn't know anything.

After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, people outside came in.

The man said a few words to Zhang Lei, Zhang Lei nodded and let the man leave.

The person from the Fushou Hall told Zhang Lei that when he saw Dunkaibo that day, he told Dunkaibo that he had goods to the dock.

Now that Dunkaibo is dead and the goods are robbed, Zhang Lei has to think that the person who killed Dunkaibo learned about this from Dunkaibo's mouth.

Those goods were robbed by anti-Japanese elements and then replaced with medicines.

From this reasoning, whoever kills Dunkaibo will be the anti-Japanese elements.

Xi Chen said it was Scarface who killed it, so wouldn’t Scarface be an anti-Japanese element?

But without evidence, just relying on Xi Chen's words, Zhang Lei can't do anything.

He offended the gang and was said to be scattered, so Zhang Lei would not be easy to get along in Shanghai in the future.

Zhang Lei looked at Xi Chen who was tied up and asked, "Are you saying true?"

"What?" Xi Chen asked.

"Don Kaibo was killed by Scarface?" Zhang Lei asked.

"Yes." Xi Chen nodded immediately.

Of course, Dun Kaibo was not killed by Scarface, but Xi Chen killed him, but now Xi Chen insists that Scarface is killed by Scarface.

Even if Zhang Lei went to check and Scarface said that it was Xi Chen who killed it, then Xi Chen could also say that Scarface said this on purpose in order to revenge himself.

At that time, this matter will be unclear. So whoever talks first will naturally have an advantage.

"Do you want to go out alive?" Zhang Lei asked Xi Chen.

"I think." Xi Chen nodded, and his tick was so intense.

"Help me do things, I will help you out." Zhang Lei made a request.

Xi Chen didn't think about it and said directly: "As long as I can keep me alive, I will help you."

Seeing that Xi Chen wanted to live so much, Zhang Lei smiled.

"Remember, Scarface wants you to die now. After you go out, he will still find a chance to deal with you, so you don't have the chance to regret it." Zhang Lei reminded him.

"I understand." Xi Chen gritted his teeth, as if he was holding a grudge against Scarface in his heart.

"What do you want me to do for you?" Xi Chen asked.

Zhang Lei lowered his voice and said, "I suspect Scarface is an anti-Japanese element. You are his person. Please help me investigate it."

"Scarface anti-Japanese elements?"

"It's impossible." Xi Chen looked disbelieving.

Although it was Xi Chen who made Zhang Lei suspect that Scarface was an anti-Japanese element, at this time, Xi Chen did not believe this matter.

The more Xi Chen performed like this, the more Zhang Lei felt that what Xi Chen was telling the truth.

If Xi Chen now said that Scarface is an anti-Japanese element, Zhang Lei would probably still have doubts.

Zhang Lei said disdainfully: "Do you think it's so easy to discover anti-Japanese elements?"

"Their lurking ability and disguise ability are far beyond your imagination, do you understand?"

"Yes, Captain Zhang taught him a lesson." Xi Chen nodded and was taught.

"You have a good investigation for me, especially the last time Dunkaibo was involved." Zhang Lei was careful and did not tell Xi Chen the owner of the Fushou Hall that the opium was robbed.

He wanted to see Xi Chen's investigation results.

In fact, he didn't know at all, Xi Chen knew it clearly.

"Why should I go out? If you saved me, Scarface will no longer trust me." Xi Chen felt this worry in his heart now.

Zhang Lei shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the police officer who dealt with you also came to the prison last night, and then the woman in the prison ran away."

When Zhang Lei said this, Xi Chen understood in his heart that the police officer was suspected.

As long as Zhang Lei takes the policeman away, it will be much easier for Xi Chen to leave, and even if he doesn't need Scarface to show up, Mao Xiaoliu can run away.

Because the police officer who had a grudge against Xi Chen had been dealt with, the rest of the police department would not be unable to get along with Xi Chen.

As for what you said you wanted to find someone who was guilty about last night, have you found it?

It was the policeman who caught Xi Chen in.

Seeing that Zhang Lei was really cruel, Xi Chen was not polite and said, "I understand."

"Remember, hurry up, help me investigate the news." Zhang Lei also wanted to catch the anti-Japanese elements and make contributions.

"Yes." Xi Chen nodded.

Standing up from the stool, Zhang Lei walked out of the interrogation room.

Seeing the police officer who caught Xi Chen in, Zhang Lei said, "Xi Chen was in the prison all night and never left. If he saved people, wouldn't he go out by himself? Is it better for you to interrogate?"

"I think you are just covering up against anti-Japanese elements."

Zhang Lei's words made the police officer in charge feel that his hat was too big, and he said, "Captain Zhang is so serious. We are still interrogating. We did not determine that it was Xi Chen's actions. We did not have to close the case."

"We all think Xi Chen is unlikely." Other police officers also ran up and said.

Zhang Lei looked at the police officer who arrested Xi Chen and asked, "Where are you?"

"I..." He wanted to kill Xi Chen, but he dared not refute Zhang Lei's words.

"Captain Zhang is right." He lowered his head and said.

"I'm not asking you if I'm right, I'm asking you if you've been here last night." Zhang Lei's serious look made this man dare not speak nonsense.

"Yes, I will catch Xi Chen back with him." The policeman pointed to another person.

The other man scolded him to death, but nodded and said, "Yes, we caught Xi Chen together and came back."

"Take all these two people away." Zhang Lei said, and the person on No. 76 came up and held them down and took the gun.

"Captain Zhang, what are you doing?" the police officer shouted.

"Last night, not only Xi Chen came in, but you also came in, right?"

"So, your suspicion is even greater." Zhang Lei said seriously.

"Captain Zhang, it's not us. Don't blame the good people for wrongly." The police officer was so scared that he couldn't do it.

"Is it wronged or not? Let's go to No. 76 and take it away." Zhang Lei waved his hand and asked someone to take the two away, and looked back at Xi Chen at the same time.

The police officers cried and shouted, "They knew where the 76th was. If they went in alive, they would not be able to come out alive."

But there were no police officers speaking for them. No. 76, they were scared when they heard it, how could they get on the rush?
