Chapter 123 Taking His Life
Chapter 123 Taking His Life
"Team leader, the gunfire is too intense."
Endo spoke cautiously, and Sato nodded slightly, pointing to one of his team members: "Go and check on the situation."
Fortunately, he remained kneeling on the tatami mat drinking tea, giving him a reason not to get up and avoid taking any risks.
The team member he pointed at was stunned for a moment.
"Hai."
He dared not disobey the team leader's orders. Although Sato's position still carried the title of deputy, everyone knew that this title would soon be removed.
In the future, Sato will be their team leader, in control of everything they do.
The team members carefully approached the window and peered out through the crack.
The fighting outside continued. The initial gunfire startled many people nearby. Some fled into the dance hall, while others ran in all directions.
People at Shanghai Station are using the terrain and various objects to launch a counterattack.
However, there aren't many of them left now.
The Special Higher Police dispatched twice as many people as they did this time, and in terms of marksmanship alone, they were indeed better than them.
Fortunately, they were also the best of the best, and their strength was not bad, otherwise they would have been completely wiped out long ago.
The fact that they didn't collapse and were able to fight back proves that their usual training is excellent and that they are indeed among the elite.
Currently, there are six people left at Shanghai Station, two of whom are injured. Most of the people at Shanghai Station have died or been injured.

The police finally arrived. Actually, there were already police officers here before, but the gunfire was so intense that it was clear there was a melee, so they didn't dare to get close.
"Notify them to evacuate."
Sato ordered them to slowly get up. They were not afraid of the police, but there were too many of them, and they could not afford to have too much of a conflict with the police within the concession.
These police whistles are a warning; they haven't started making arrests yet.
Sato knew the police well; they could bully ordinary people, but they wouldn't dare to fight them on a large scale.
Lu Mingxuan had already eaten at home and was lying down reading the newspaper when he heard the gunshot. He immediately got up, as the dance hall was not too far from where he lived.
It's obvious that it's within his jurisdiction.
He can't escape responsibility for such a large-scale gunfight that occurred in his jurisdiction.
Su Yuncheng lived not far away and also heard the gunshots.
The gunshots from his side weren't as loud; they sounded more like firecrackers, but Su Yuncheng could still tell they weren't firecrackers.
Something must have happened.

Just as Lu Mingxuan was about to leave, his phone rang. He didn't want to answer it, but after thinking about it, he went over anyway.
It must have been the police station that reported something had happened in their jurisdiction.
He heard the gunshots, so naturally he knew all this.
"Brother Lu, did you hear that?"
To Lu Mingxuan's surprise, the caller was Su Yuncheng. Su Yuncheng was faster than him, but after coming out, he didn't go directly to the location of the gunshot. Instead, he called Lu Mingxuan first.
Bullets don't have eyes, and Su Yuncheng isn't a superman.
One bullet could kill him, so to be safe, he wanted to ask first.
Such a large-scale gunfight couldn't be the Green Gang.
The Green Gang was relatively restrained in their actions within the concession, avoiding the use of guns whenever possible and relying more on knives. Dylan had only recently taken office and was the strictest in enforcing security, so the Green Gang dared not act recklessly at this time.
It was likely a gunfight that took place inside the concession by other people.
Moreover, neither side will consist of just one person.
It must have been a multi-person gunfight; otherwise, such a commotion couldn't have been created.
The newspaper needs to be the first to know the news, and Su Yuncheng also needs to find out what's going on.
"I heard you, where are you?"
Lu Mingxuan immediately replied that Su Yuncheng's call came at just the right time. He knew something serious had happened when he heard the gunshot, and he was only thinking about finding out the situation as soon as possible, so he ignored Su Yuncheng.
This matter will definitely alarm the police force, and even the Public Works Bureau. If Su Yuncheng goes with him, and Dilang comes, he will have someone to help him.
"I'm at a restaurant near my home."
Su Yuncheng used the restaurant's phone to quickly give them the address.
Lu Mingxuan immediately went out and drove straight there.
"Yuncheng".
In just a few minutes, Lu Mingxuan arrived at Su Yuncheng's side and waved to Su Yuncheng, who was standing at the restaurant entrance.
"Let's go there now."
After picking up Su Yuncheng, Lu Mingxuan felt much more at ease. On the way here, he had already cursed the person who had caused him trouble.
Don't let him catch anyone, or he'll make those people pay.
To cause such a big disturbance on his turf is tantamount to killing him.
"it is good."
Su Yuncheng didn't stand on ceremony. The newspaper office was already closed, and no one else had a phone at home, so he didn't notify them.
The incident occurred in the jurisdiction of the Xiafei Road Police Station, and with Lu Mingxuan present, he had no concerns about the news coverage.
When Lu Mingxuan picked up Su Yuncheng, Sato had just left.
Members of the Special Higher Police's action team are also evacuating.
The intelligence team and the action team withdrew separately, and Sato was unaware of their personnel losses or the number of Shanghai station personnel killed.
"Chief Inspector, you've arrived."
Lu Mingxuan quickly arrived near the dance hall. The gunfire had already stopped, and the police had taken over the battlefield and were cleaning up.
The battle was too intense, and even when the police arrived, they didn't dare to get close until the Special Higher Police withdrew.
There was no one else outside the dance hall, only police officers and people who had been arrested.
In addition, there are corpses.
There was more than one body; the police were moving the bodies and questioning those they had arrested.
"What happened?"
Lu Mingxuan showed no politeness and directly reprimanded him. The person who came was Captain Wu, an old acquaintance of Su Yuncheng, who was currently wearing a mournful face.
He was unlucky; the incident happened within his jurisdiction.
"Chief Inspector, the specific situation is still unclear. According to witnesses, as soon as the people in the car arrived at the entrance of the dance hall, a group of people came and opened fire. The other party was extremely vicious. There were four people in the car, three dead and one injured. The identity of the deceased has just been confirmed. He was Jiang Mushan and his bodyguard."
Captain Wu pointed to the car at the entrance of the dance hall and said that he had already questioned someone and found out some details.
Jiang Mushan?
Su Yuncheng's heart stirred. He knew about Jiang Mushan's affairs. He was a corrupt official in the Kuomintang army. He didn't hold a high-ranking position, but he had embezzled a lot.
The Kuomintang was very annoyed by this.
If Jiang Mushan was killed, it was definitely the Kuomintang that did it, most likely the Special Service.
"Is Jiang Mushan dead?" Lu Mingxuan asked immediately.
"Dead, this is it."
Captain Wu hurriedly pointed to a corpse. Three of the four people in the car were dead, and one was injured, but not seriously.
The injured person was Jiang Mushan's confidant, who was the driver. He was planning to park the car on the side of the road after Jiang Mushan entered the dance hall, but he didn't get out of the car.
He had served in the military; as soon as the gunfire started, he lay down, and eventually, a bullet grazed his arm.
The injury is indeed not serious.
"If you kill a few people, why are so many people firing guns?"
There were more than three bodies at the scene, more than ten, Lu Mingxuan asked again. Captain Wu replied, "It is said that as soon as these people appeared, someone opened fire on them, and there were even more of them."
"More people?"
Lu Mingxuan was stunned. Someone had deliberately ambushed the murderer. This case was not simple and was definitely not an ordinary murder case.
The more complicated the case, the more his head ached.
"Find out their identities immediately."
Lu Mingxuan ordered that Dylan would likely come, or at least be summoned for questioning. He needed to understand the situation before Dylan questioned him.
Don't be clueless when asked.
