Phoenix Restaurant and Maoyuan Hotel are on the same street. They sit east to west and are located at the entrance of South Street.
Xiaoru and Chunping took turns toasting, one glass after another. After a while, the plumber was reduced to a puddle of mud and fell unconscious on the dining table.
Xiaoru took off a bunch of keys from the plumber's belt. Xiaoru left Phoenix Restaurant alone and took a pedal rickshaw back to Ronghua Hotel.
Walking to the door of the power distribution room, Xiaoru stopped and looked around for no one. She quickly took out the key from her bag.
There are a total of four keys on the key ring. After opening and verification, the key to the power distribution room can be quickly found.
After returning to the guest room to rest for a while, Xiaoru took a rickshaw to find a lock shop to prepare a new key.
After the plumber sobered up, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon. Only then did Xiaoru and Chunping leave the restaurant.
It was estimated that the second group of Don't Move was about to enter the city. Under Xiaoru's urging, the rickshaw sped up and headed toward the Maoyuan Hotel.
Stepping into the hotel threshold, Xiaoru and Chunping didn't look sideways. They climbed up to the second floor and stopped in front of the door of Room 303.
Room 303 is the guest room that Xiao Liu has not checked out.
Sure enough, I knocked on the door twice. The door creaked open. It was Xiao Liu who opened the door.
Now look inside the room. In addition to Shanzi and Xiao Liu, there are also the four tiger generals of the Independent Regiment. They are: First Battalion Commander Song Yijie, Second Battalion Commander Xu Xiaolong, Third Battalion Commander Li Xiaohu, and the new Fourth Battalion Commander Gao Yufeng.
Because she was excited, Xiaoru rushed towards Shanzi in two or two steps and held Shanzi's hand firmly. However, her lips moved several times and she didn't say anything.
Shanzi asked bluntly: "Are you ready for everything?"
Xiaoru's answer was even more abrupt: "You have brought all your belongings over there, right?"
Shanzi said: "Zhuang Zhuang Wangwang and Platoon Leader Wang each drive a carriage. They are staying in another hotel. Their belongings are still in the mezzanine of the carriage. They will be delivered after dark."
Platoon Leader Wang refers to the reconnaissance platoon leader Wang Shishu. Zhuang Zhuang and Wangwang are both scouts. In this operation, they are only responsible for the transportation of firearms and personnel.
Shanzi told Xiaoru that after the second group of the special forces entered the city, Platoon Leader Wang and his party would leave the city tomorrow and wait at the first village beside the road outside the city to welcome the second group of special forces as they leave the city.
Xiaolong and Xiaohu each brought a glass of boiled water. One was for Xiaoru and the other was for Chunping.
Xiaolong said: "Sister Ru, my heart is always beating when I see you dressed up like a flower."
Xiaoru scolded: "You are too good to be true. If you have the ability, you can marry me and be your wife."
Xiaolong's face turned red and he was speechless.
Shanzi glared at Xiaolong: "You are the Pig. You are just talking nonsense. Sit down and talk about business."
Xiaolong Diliu turned around and sat down on the edge of the bed. But he pushed Xiaohu away: "Sister Ru, please sit here. The distance is close, and the heart is close."
Xiaoru had no scruples. She sat side by side with Xiaolong and faced Shanzi face to face.
Shanzi asked: "Do you want to make an appointment with Cheng Xiaoying?"
Xiaoru said: "The plan is going well. There is no need to make an appointment for the time being. Aunt Cheng has something to say first. If something unexpected happens, she will take the initiative to contact me."
After finishing speaking, Xiaoru opened her bag, took out a piece of letterhead and handed it to Shanzi: "According to our plan for leaving the city, Aunt Cheng organized eight groups of Japanese dialogues. The pronunciation and meaning are all marked with Chinese characters."
Shanzi read the letter and still frowned and said to himself: "The condolences team will arrive tomorrow. I always feel that time is too tight."
Xiaoru continued: "Judging from the current situation, time is not a problem. The only worry is whether we can break out of the city gate according to our plan for leaving the city."
Xiaohu said: "It's not interesting to say that. The Four Tigers will take action. There is no Flame Mountain that cannot be overcome in the world."
Shanzi glanced at Xiaohu coldly: "Come here."
Xiaohu stood up from the chair at the end of the bed and walked to Shanzi anxiously.
Shanzi held the letter up to Xiaohu's chest and continued: "With your bragging spirit, I'll leave these Japanese conversations to you. You must know them by heart."
Xiaohu nodded and said, "Brother, Xiaolong's head is much better than Xiaohu's. It's perfect to leave this job to him."
Shan Zi was serious about his words. He shook the letter with his right hand and said: "Only those with good brains can play. This is an order. Take it quickly."
As soon as he heard the order, Xiaohu raised his head and chest, and saluted: "Brother, it is better to obey orders than to be respectful. Since you value me so much, Xiaohu is no longer modest. It is just a good time to show off his skills to help my brother learn something."
Shanzi smiled coldly: "Go back. I will continue to blow in my dreams at night."
Xiaoru then told Shanzi that she would stay at the Ronghua Hotel tonight. On the one hand, she tried to unlock the door lock of the power distribution room, and on the other hand, she observed what was going on in the hotel.
Shan Zi also told Xiao Ru that he and Xiao Long rushed to the front door of the hotel at eight o'clock. They would first familiarize themselves with the environment and geography there. Then they would conduct reconnaissance along the way and plan an evacuation and exit route from the city.

In the early morning, Xiaoru and Chunping walked quickly and hurried back to Maoyuan Hotel.
Climbing to the third floor, Xiaoru gently knocked on the door of room 303.
After Xiao Liu opened the door, Shanzi had already dressed.
Looking at his watch, it was only 6:17. Shanzi was puzzled and asked suspiciously: "Why are you back so early?"
Xiaoru said nothing. She handed two pieces of stamped letterhead to Shanzi.
Shanzi unfolded the letter, but could not understand the Japanese on it.
Xiaoru said...
The dance was in progress last night. The ballroom manager informed her to make an appointment with Chunping, the general manager.
I didn’t want to come to the general manager’s office, but I saw Tian Yuan and Cheng Xiaoying were there.
Sakata said that all guests must check out of the hotel before eight o'clock this morning. The letterhead is a letter of introduction issued by Sakata. It can be used as a voucher for entering and exiting the hotel.
Chunping went on to say...
Sakata also said that there is an important guest at tonight's dance. Sister Ru will dance with her throughout the whole process. Sakata particularly emphasized that no matter what the guest requests, Sister Ru must absolutely obey. Otherwise, she may be executed.
Xiaoru couldn't help but turn red: "Judging from Aunt Cheng's expression, this guest is Miyamoto."
Shanzi was silent for a long time. After a long time, he turned his attention to Chunping: "Chunping, the entire assassination operation and even Xiaoru's life and death are all in your hands. We must make sure that everything is foolproof."
Chunping said: "Don't worry. The mistake will never happen to me."
Shanzi nodded happily. Then he took out a Browning FN pocket pistol and handed it to Xiaoru.
Xiaoru asked: "Have the route of evacuation and leaving the city been determined?"
Shanzi said: "We have drawn the signs and put them with Xiaolong. Please remember that after rushing out of the hotel, go straight to the alley in the middle. Xiaoliu and I will meet you there."
Xiaoru thought for a moment and suddenly said: "That's right. I almost forgot something."
Shanzi looked at Xiaoru with a surprised look: "What's the matter?"
Xiaoru went on to say...
According to Cheng Xiaoying, the Japanese Jiaonan agents were wiped out, alarming the theater's highest headquarters. If it weren't for the fact that the condolence group was busy clearing the countryside, a brigade would be used to attack the independent group again.
Cheng Xiaoying specially reminded that it is estimated that in mid-April, the condolence group will end its condolences to the Japanese war zone in Shandong. Presumably after this, the independent group will suffer a disaster. Please be sure to be prepared.
After listening to Xiaoru's report, Shanzi smiled disdainfully: "The Independent Regiment is not what it used to be. We are worried that so much ammunition will not be used. I hope there will be more dead ghosts."
As soon as Shanzi finished speaking, Xiaoru immediately asked: "Are there any other tasks during the day?"
Shanzi replied in a joking tone: "Eat, rest, and refresh yourself. This is the mission."
Chunping said: "Brother Shanzi, if nothing happens, let's go shopping. Sister Ru has taken a fancy to a pair of beautiful clothes. She wants you to buy them for Sister Mei."
Shan Zi's face turned red and he used clever words to talk to Chun Ping.
During the execution of the mission, it is not allowed to use official services for personal gain.
When Chunping heard this, she muttered...
There are as many grains of hemp as there are in meters. A stingy person.
