Volume 1 Turbulent Times Chapter 116 Ashes

Song Jiaoren sent Liao Zhongkai here. Firstly, he was the party to go to *hai Railway Station. Secondly, although Liao Zhongkai did not care about public order in the government, he was one of the major directors in the kmt. Although the Huang Xing case has not been a short time, the case has been investigated both within the kmt and in the government. (1_1) Liao Zhongkai has a good position in the party, and has a good relationship with Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing. In addition, this matter needs to be kept confidential for the time being. After considering it, Song Jiaoren decisively pointed out Liao Zhongkai's name and asked him to go to Tianjin immediately for investigation.

As for Yuan Shikai, Fang Zida initially thought that the mastermind behind the railway station case was Yuan Shikai, but after having contacted Yuan Shikai in the past two years and having carefully analyzed the complex relationship between the Beiyang Group and the kmt, it can be concluded that Yuan Shikai would never do such a stupid thing. Of course, this cannot rule out that some people in the Beiyang Group made trouble behind the scenes in the name of Yuan Shikai, but after the investigation, they did not find out who they were. Moreover, after the case, all the directly related people died mysteriously in prison, only Hong Shuzu escaped, and disappeared in the hiding concession.

Logically speaking, the person in charge of police affairs across the country is former Prime Minister Zhao Bingjun, and Yuan Shikai should send him over if he wants to send someone. But because Zhao Bingjun is also one of the suspects in this case, in order to avoid suspicion, Yuan Shikai sent Yang Du here.

Yang Du and Liao Zhongkai are both extremely smart people. When they learned that the killer was probably Yin Ruizhi, they were shocked and thought of a terrible answer at the same time. The two looked at each other silently, and neither spoke.

"Brother Xizi, Brother Zhongkai, this matter will be handed over to you. If you need my help, just talk." Fang Zida said, breaking the dull atmosphere.

Yang Du nodded slightly and said, "Can the entourage who recognized Yin Ruizhi be handed over to me?"

"This is impossible!" Fang Zida refused: "However, if necessary, I can ask him to cooperate, but the ugly words are ahead, and my people must be safe. No matter whether they are in the presidential palace or the government, their identity must be disclosed."

After thinking for a while, Yang Du felt that he could accept it, so he looked at Liao Zhongkai and asked, "Brother Zhongkai. What do you think?"

"Yes!" Liao Zhongkai agreed immediately. There was nothing wrong with Fang Zida doing this. On the contrary, he still appreciated this choice to protect his subordinates in this situation.

"That's it. We will take over this case directly. Brother Zhongkai, let's report to Beijing after we deal with it?" Yang Du suggested that Liao Zhongkai had no objection. The two of them stood up at the same time and made an urgent arrangement.

After finishing the matters on the police station and reporting to the Presidential Office and the Prime Minister's Office, Fang Zida specially found Jiang Zhiqing and asked some questions in front of Yang Du and Liao Zhongkai. Although Jiang Zhiqing is not very famous, Yang and Liao still know him, and they know that Jiang Zhiqing is Chen Qimei's brother. Chen Qimei has a deep relationship with the Restoration Association that year, and it is very normal for them to be familiar with Yin Ruizhi. After careful inquiry, it corresponds to the situation that Fang Zida talked about at that time. I feel that Jiang Zhiqing's words can still be believed.

The gun case in front of the hotel quickly caused a shock in Tianjin. Major newspapers published news about the incident. However, due to the timely reaction and the confidentiality work was done well, the newspaper industry has not yet known who the death was, who the specific gunman was, and why they used such a fierce way to kill a person in public. For this reason, major newspapers have written articles to speculate on this matter, some say it was a revenge killing in the world, some say it was a fight between gang members, and some say it was a grudge among wealthy families... Some even fabricated bizarre stories such as the deceased being a German spy and the murderer was an agent of the Allies, and all kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky.

Because of the sudden incident of the gun case, Fang Zida's departure was postponed for two days. On the third day, Fang Zida offered goodbye to Yang Du and Liao Zhongkai who were still in the investigation, because he wanted to return to Beijing as soon as possible to arrange it, and then rushed to Shanghai for official business.

On the train back to Beijing, Fang Zida was not as relaxed as before. In his luxurious private room, Jiang Zhiqing, who was a little tired from the side.

"Rui Yuan, what do you think about this?"

Jiang Zhiqing seemed to have not had a good sleep these days, his eyes were dark and his spirits were a little dazed. Fang Zida asked him for the first time, and he didn't seem to hear him. He didn't react until he asked again.

"I don't know, my mind is very messy now..." Jiang Zhiqing shook his head, and then suddenly remembered something: "Thank you, the president!"

"Thank me?" Fang Zida was stunned by this stupid thank you.

"Thank you for not handing me over to the Presidential Office and the government." Jiang Zhiqing thanked sincerely.

"Haha, it's this matter. Ruiyuan doesn't have to be polite. You are my person now, and even your own people can't take care of us, Fang Zida? Besides, this matter was just a coincidence. It was already my fault to get you in. Thank you." Fang Zida waved his hand and said with a smile.

"That's more to thank you." Jiang Zhiqing said gratefully.

"Forget it, it's not interesting to thank you, but Ruiyuan, I always feel that you have some thoughts. Can you tell me?"

"This..." Jiang Zhiqing hesitated for a while and sighed: "Okay, since the president wants to hear it, I'll talk."

Fang Zida guessed right, Jiang Zhiqing was indeed thoughtful. Chen Qimei had a deep relationship with the Restoration Association. Speaking of Yin Ruizhi and Chen Qimei, it was Chen Qimei who introduced Yin Ruizhi to Tao Chengzhang of the Restoration Association. But later, due to different political views, Chen Qimei and Tao Chengzhang turned their faces. The two were like fire and fire. Chen Qimei did not do anything and took action first and decisively sent people to assassinate Tao Chengzhang at the Shanghai Guangci Hospital. This incident was quite sensational at the beginning. It was not someone else who presided over the assassination, but Jiang Zhiqing was the one who presided over the assassination.

After Tao Chengzhang's death, Jiang Zhiqing took refuge in Japan because he was worried about the revenge of Yin Ruizhi and others, and only returned to China later. It can be said that Yin Ruizhi and Jiang Zhiqing are not very familiar with each other. Jiang Zhiqing never expected that he would encounter a shooting scene in a hotel, and the person who had a thunder attack in the end would be Yin Ruizhi. Thinking of Tao Chengzhang's incident, he couldn't help but thunderous eyes twitching.

This was not only what shocked Jiang Zhiqing even more. Yin Ruizhi's move made him suddenly recall something, that was Chen Qimei's desperate laughter when she was ambushing in the Shiliupu Wharf and the words left when she died. For a moment, a terrible thought passed by Jiang Zhiqing's mind, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

"Are you guessing..." Fang Zida asked with a serious expression.

"Don't say it!" Jiang Zhiqing shook his head and said, "I just hope that what I guess is wrong. If this is the answer, I... I really don't know if I will believe it."

Nodding silently, Fang Zida did not force him, and never mentioned the matter any longer. He lay down, gradually closed his eyes, and slowly fell asleep with the rhythmic sound of the train.

At this time, Prime Minister Song Jiaoren and two others were sitting in the office. In front of him was a telegram sent by Liao Zhongkai from Tianjin. The content on it shocked everyone present.

"Can it be......" Tang Shaoyi murmured to himself, looking at Song Jiaoren with a shocked look: "Can he really do it? Why did he do this? Huang Keqiang and him are brothers of life and death!"

"Brother Shaochuan, although this matter is not certain, the only point to him now is the suspicious point. So what about Brother Life and Death? Isn't it still rumored that this was done by me, Mr. Zhao? There are many people who believe it!" The speaker was former Prime Minister Zhao Bingjun. Hong Shuzu's death completely took off his hat as the commander behind the scenes, but his expression was not relaxed at all, and his expression was even more serious than Tang Shaoyi.

"Impossible! It's definitely Fang Junming's people who read it wrong! Yes! It must be like this!" Tang Shaoyi thought about it but still couldn't figure out why that person assassinated Huang Xing, because it couldn't make any sense! In order to comfort himself, he suddenly thought of this and stood up excitedly.

"Don't be naive, Brother Shaochuan, Zhongkai is not a reckless person, and he is not sure that he will not report like this. Moreover, Fang Zhengming was in the phenomenon at that time, and he would not make a random decision with his personality. In addition, as far as I know, the president also received a report from Yang Xizi, which was exactly the same as Zhongkai's. Will so many people wrongly accuse him? Besides, Huang Keqiang's case is confusing, and maybe there is something else in it." After saying that, Zhao Bingjun turned his eyes to Song Jiaoren, who had not spoken out, as if he was asking something.

Song Jiaoren sat and frowned. After a long time, he stood up, walked to the desk and opened the locked drawer, and took out a piece of paper from it.

"This is not..." Tang Shaoyi looked at the paper in confusion. He remembered clearly that this was the pen left before Chen Qimei died. The three big words "hate" on it seemed like blood was dripping.

"After the train station, I kept thinking that Keqiang was probably dead for me. The killer really wanted to kill not Keqiang but me. If Fang Zhengming hadn't taken action in time that day, I, Song Jiaoren, would have been no longer in this world. I kept Chen Yingshi's word and kept thinking about it..." Song Jiaoren smiled bitterly. Zhao Bingjun's face changed drastically when he heard this, and his body was trembling. If Song Jiaoren's guess was true, it would be terrifying. If it were not Huang Keqiang but Song Jiaoren who died at that time, Zhao Bingjun was full of mouths and could not say it clearly. After all, he was Zhao Bingjun, and Song Jiaoren's purpose in going north was to form a cabinet...

Tang Shaoyi was also shocked, feeling bitter in her mouth and couldn't say anything. She didn't know how to do it for a while.

"In my opinion, this matter has passed like this. So what if he did it? Now there is no evidence, no witness, just based on speculation and someone's slightest identification?" Song Jiaoren shook his head, scratched a match and lit the paper. Soon in the fire, the three big words of hatred were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye. (To be continued...)
