Tang Cheng met the tea shop shopkeeper again in the backyard of a bookstore in the French Concession. Tang Cheng, who entered the bookstore at the agreed time, was taken directly to the back yard of the bookstore. There was not only the tea shop shopkeeper, but also a strange man and woman.
"What do you call it?" Seeing Tang Cheng following behind the bookstore owner, the tea shop owner immediately turned to the middle-aged man and whispered in his ear. The latter stood up and stretched out his right hand to Tang Cheng while smiling.
Words.
The other party had shown a kind attitude, but Tang Cheng didn't pay attention to the goodwill shown by the other party. He didn't even look at the middle-aged man's right hand, and just sat down in the chair opposite the tea shop owner.
"My time is very tight, so there is no need to resort to the same trick! I came here at the agreed time. I just want to know the decision of your Shanghai underground party organization! If you refuse to cooperate, I can still find someone else!"
Tang Cheng's disregard made the middle-aged man who stood up and stretched out his right hand somewhat embarrassed. The tea shop owner who was the first to react secretly winked, and then the middle-aged man suppressed his anger and sat down. He was ordered to come and negotiate.
The couple who met in Tangcheng mistakenly believed that Tangcheng was also an underground party. Tangcheng's behavior at this moment made them doubt their previous judgment, because one of them should not behave like this.
Tang Cheng looked at the other three people with an indifferent expression. He had already expressed his attitude just now. Next, it would be up to him to see what the other party meant. Tang Cheng did not speak, and the middle-aged man also had a cold face and remained silent. The tea shop owner
Seeing this, he could only speak to break the awkward situation. "I have reported to my superiors what you told me before. These two are here to meet with you on behalf of your superiors to discuss plans." Tang Cheng said to the tea shop owner.
The impression was pretty good, so after the tea shop owner spoke, he subconsciously softened his expression a little.
"We have many doubts about the plan you mentioned. The reason why the organization asked us to meet is to discuss some of our concerns with you." The tea shop owner broke the silence first, and the woman with a slightly heroic look between her eyebrows also
Then she spoke. Compared to the forced calmness of the middle-aged man beside her, Tang Cheng seemed to be quite satisfied with this woman's attitude. After all, when this woman spoke, her words did not reveal a superior attitude.
"I made it very clear last time. All you need to do is, after seeing the signal I sent, use your strength to transport the things away at the agreed location! Let me tell you the direction and purpose of the action.
, I just want you to understand this action. I don’t want you to participate in the specific action at all!"
Tang Cheng's words may sound a bit aggressive at first, but if you calm down and carefully consider what Tang Cheng just said, you can understand what Tang Cheng wants to express.
Half an hour passed quickly, and this not-so-pleasant meeting finally came to an end after Tang Cheng stood up. Tang Cheng, who left the back door of the bookstore, didn't look very good, and took the initiative to bring the Shanghai underground party organization closer.
During this operation, Tang Cheng just wanted to provide a batch of materials, weapons and ammunition for free to the Shanghai underground party organization. But he did not expect that the opinions within the Shanghai underground party organization were not unified. Some people from the Shanghai underground party organization
, actually felt that Shanghai’s underground party organization should take the lead in the actions proposed by Tangcheng.
After talking to the man and woman in the backyard of the bookstore, Tang Cheng immediately understood the meaning of the Shanghai underground party organization, so he chose to take the initiative to interrupt the meeting. After Tang Cheng left, the tea shop owner who remained in the backyard of the bookstore
He was a little disappointed. Judging from what he had just talked about, he believed that Tang Cheng was definitely not a spy sent by the enemy. Moreover, he believed that if the plan proposed by Tang Cheng was followed, the Shanghai underground party organization would definitely be able to obtain a batch of weapons and ammunition for free.
But now, everything is in vain. Looking at Tang Cheng's expression when he left just now, the tea shop owner knows that this cooperation seems to be impossible. "Old Han, you are too hasty! The action plan is for others.
It’s proposed, and we don’t need anyone from our side to take part in the specific actions! Don’t even think about it. If it were you, you would have to go through life and death on your own to carry out specific actions, and you would also have to obey our orders. Would you be willing?"
The middle-aged man, who was called Lao Han by the tea shop owner, was just stunned when he heard this, and then frowned slightly and said, "Old Hu, how can you speak for outsiders! How can we be controlled by others for such a big action!
What if the operation fails and we are involved afterwards? The superiors did not say that they have to take full command of the operation, but the identity of the other party is mysterious, shouldn't we be more careful?" What Lao Han said,
What he said was so righteous that the tea shop owner couldn't find the right words to refute for a moment.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now! After you reported the situation to your superiors, your superiors have already arranged manpower to investigate the Japanese docks.
Check, I believe there will be news back soon. As long as we have a grasp of the situation at the Japanese military dock, we can confirm whether the other party's action is possible, so it is useless no matter how much we say now." Old Han's mood also changed.
It's not very good. Tangcheng came and left suddenly. Old Han still has many questions that have not been answered.
The tea shop owner didn't know that there was one thing that Lao Han didn't say, which was that the Shanghai underground party organization had been doubting Tang Cheng's identity. When they agreed to meet with Tang Cheng, the Shanghai underground party organization had already used the radio to contact their superiors.
Verify Tang Cheng's identity. The mysterious Tang Cheng knows the tea house and can accurately speak the contact code. If Tang Cheng's identity is not confirmed, the consequences are definitely not something that the listed underground party organization can bear.
Taking all these circumstances into account, the Shanghai underground party organization behaved cautiously, but Tang Cheng did not understand the cautiousness of the Shanghai underground party organization. He just felt that the other party did not believe him. Tang Cheng was used to living alone, so once he
Feeling that the Shanghai underground party organization was not a good teammate, Tang Cheng chose to leave immediately, thus severing contact with the Shanghai underground party organization. After leaving the bookstore, Tang Cheng did not return to his residence immediately, but walked alone
Wandering around in the French Concession.
I have been in Shanghai for many days, and the gifts I bought for my family have already been sent back to City C through Hans's channel. At this moment, I am just wandering aimlessly in Tangcheng, without any desire to shop. After walking through two streets in succession,
Tang Cheng walked into a cafe on the street and chose a seat by the window to sit down. Tang Cheng drank fragrant coffee while flipping through the newspapers subscribed to by the cafe. Tang Cheng obviously enjoyed this.
A leisurely life, especially when he saw news of the attack in the French Concession published in the newspaper.
According to Tang Cheng's understanding of the islanders, the face-conscious islanders would not allow this matter to be reported. Unfortunately, foreign newspapers in the concession are not subject to the control of the islanders. Through the street-facing window of the cafe, Tangcheng was in a happy mood.
Looking at the situation on the street outside the cafe, compared with yesterday, the number of suspicious people on the streets in the French Concession has increased unabated. Tang Cheng stayed in this cafe for almost 2 hours before getting up and leaving, feeling something in his heart
With new ideas, he hurried back to his residence.
The meeting with the Shanghai underground party organization did not go well. When Tang Cheng returned to his residence, he almost forgot about the incident. After briefly checking and maintaining the commonly used firearms, Tang Cheng began to recharge his batteries and wait.
When night falls, if Tang Cheng wants to raid the Japanese military dock warehouse, he must first find a way to divert the attention of the Special High School. While killing time in the cafe, Tang Cheng has a good idea in mind.
It was just getting dark when Hans called from the restaurant office. He said that he had helped Tang Cheng find out the relevant situation and asked Tang Cheng to go to the restaurant to meet with him to discuss in detail. Tang Cheng, who already had plans for the evening, refused on the phone.
Hans's request to go there immediately was just that he would go there to meet Hans tomorrow morning. "Don, tell me the truth. If you don't come to the restaurant to meet me, will something happen again in the evening?" Hans thought.
Carefully, he immediately guessed from Tang Cheng's words the reason why Tang Cheng refused to meet him.
Tang Cheng didn't hesitate at all, but he couldn't tell Hans the truth on the phone, so he could only say politely. "I want to go to bed early tonight, so we'd better meet tomorrow! Besides, this part of the concession is
It’s not safe time, I’m afraid I’ll get into trouble if I go out at night!” Tang Cheng said politely on the phone, but Hans on the other end of the phone didn’t believe the reasons given by Tang Cheng at all. Fortunately, Hans didn’t continue to ask, otherwise
, Tang Cheng really didn’t know how to explain it.
Tang Cheng hung up the phone and started packing his equipment bag. He hid the things he wouldn't need tonight under the bed in the bedroom. Tang Cheng, who simply put on a facial disguise, stood in front of the mirror and checked repeatedly. He found that there were no flaws.
Only then did he leave his residence. The French Concession at night looked much more depressed than it had been some time ago. Shots had been fired from time to time in the past few days, making the security environment in the French Concession much worse. Unless necessary, there were very few Chinese living in the French Concession.
Will go out at night.
There are fewer Chinese people going out at night in the concession, and there are a lot more blond and blue-eyed foreigners. After leaving the residence in Tangcheng, I walked through a street and met several waves of foreigners in succession. In the French Concession at night, plainclothes people can be seen everywhere during the day.
There were indeed a lot fewer secret agents, but there were a lot more gang members wearing short shirts on the streets. Tang Cheng walked on the street as if nothing had happened, and when he encountered gang members staring at him, Tang Cheng didn't care at all.
Many gang members in the concession secretly help the islanders, relying on the support of the islanders. Sometimes even the concession patrol room has no way to deal with these gang members. Tangcheng is dispatched tonight, and the main target is these gang members in the concession who secretly help
A gang member working in the Special High School, he wanted to use this incident to completely anger the Shanghai Special High School.
