The sudden explosion and the dust pouring out of the shop indeed attracted the attention of these Japanese and puppet spies, but their attention was immediately diverted by Tang Cheng's continuous shooting. Compared to the one who had already retreated into the shop,
Tang Cheng, with his beard and accurate marksmanship, was the enemy of these Japanese and puppet spies. Tang Cheng, who occupied the alley, slowed down his shooting speed after successfully attracting the attention of these Japanese and puppet spies.
A few minutes later, the Japanese and puppet agents finally arrived with reinforcements, but they could not pose a threat to Tangcheng who occupied the alley for a while. Looking at these Japanese and puppet agents who came with reinforcements, they seemed to want to surround themselves.
Meaning, Tangcheng simply retreated into the alley and followed the street wall directly to the roof of the nearby store. The higher he stood, the farther he could see. Tangcheng, which had the advantage of the terrain, calculated that time was almost up, so he walked directly along the roof towards
Move a little eastward, then lie down where you are.
Tang Cheng did not choose to leave immediately, but lay down on the spot. He also wanted to confirm whether the bearded man had left. Suddenly there was no sound of gunfire, and the Japanese and puppet spies on both sides of the street immediately took action. After a few old spies,
Under the leadership and urging, they slowly approached the alley from both ends of the street. It took a few minutes to confirm that the gunmen in the alley had left. The unwilling Japanese spies naturally also went to the store where the explosion occurred.
, the result is still nothing.
After confirming with his own eyes that he had gained nothing from dancing all these days, Tangcheng, who was hiding on the roof, quietly left. In the concession, Japanese military police began to check the IDs of passers-by, and gang members also appeared in the streets and alleys, carrying cooked food.
Tang Cheng could only go back to the New Asia Hotel. As expected, the atmosphere in Hongkou District became a little tense again. Military police and police patrolling could be seen everywhere outside the New Asia Hotel. However, these were all different from Tang Cheng who had already returned to the hotel.
The city has nothing to do with it.
When it was time for dinner, Tang Cheng did not choose to go out, but settled his dinner in the hotel restaurant. Perhaps God helped, while Tang Cheng was having dinner alone, the three Japanese businessmen sitting next to him, maybe
After drinking too much, they actually talked about a piece of news they had just learned. The voices of these three Japanese businessmen were not actually very loud, but Tang Cheng's hearing was far better than ordinary people, so these three were drunk.
The red-faced Japanese businessman did not realize what they were talking about, and Tang Cheng heard it clearly.
Gold? Hearing the word of interest, Tang Cheng's eyes narrowed, and then he slowed down his eating speed. After listening to it secretly for a while,
Finally, Tangcheng had roughly figured out what the three Japanese businessmen sitting next to him were talking about. A Japanese colonel stationed in Peiping applied for retirement due to physical reasons. This was originally a very common thing. But this man
Someone close to the Japanese colonel spread the news that the Japanese colonel who retired due to injury actually had no need to retire at all.
He retired from the army in the name of injury, and his purpose was just for convenience, to transport a batch of gold antiques he had collected over the years back to Japan. Once the news came out, everyone thought it was just a rumor at first, but someone secretly carried out the plan.
An investigation was conducted, and it was confirmed that this rumor was not unfounded. However, because the Japanese colonel who applied for retirement had some background, those who knew the inside story did not dare to take any chances with the Japanese colonel.
But now, this news has been known to the three Japanese businessmen sitting next to me. The thinking mode of businessmen is different from that of ordinary people. As long as it is profitable, businessmen will follow it like flies.
You. These three businessmen also seem to know that the Japanese colonel has a strong background, so they also dare not take the idea of the Japanese colonel. But what they are talking about now is how to establish a relationship with the Japanese colonel first, and then through this
The Japanese commander who was about to come to Shanghai met some Japanese officers who were also stationed in Peiping.
Tang Cheng was not interested in the follow-up plans mentioned by these three Japanese businessmen at all, but he was interested in the Japanese commander who was about to go south to Shanghai. Most Japanese came to China empty-handed, so they returned to Japan
When we were in the mainland, everything we brought should belong to China. This was what Tang Cheng thought in his heart. Having already learned the name of the Japanese colonel from the conversation between the three Japanese businessmen sitting next to him, Tang Cheng hurriedly ended his dinner and stood up.
Leave the hotel restaurant.
According to the three Japanese businessmen, the Japanese military commander who was preparing to leave China with gold antiques should arrive in Shanghai three days later, and then after a short stay, leave Shanghai on a warship. Moreover, Tangcheng also figured out that this Japanese military commander
Colonel, prepared to take a boat from Tianjin to Shanghai, which gave Tang Cheng more space and opportunities to display his talents. Tang Cheng was not familiar with Tianjin, so he chose to wait in Shanghai for the arrival of his target.
Come.
Three days passed quickly. Tangcheng got up early in the morning to make breakfast and came to the dock early. Ships coming to Shanghai from Tianjin, whether merchant ships or cargo ships, have a fixed arrival time. The time is in Tangcheng
Minutes and seconds passed while waiting. Finally, when the big ship docked, Tang Cheng, who was mixed in the crowd, carefully looked at every passenger who got off the ship. Sure enough, just as Tang Cheng had expected in advance, the target did not come from the big ship.
Get off the boat.
During the three days of waiting for the target to appear, Tang Cheng had been repeatedly deducing the action steps, and he also thought that although the target was a retired colonel, he had a backing and might take a warship south to Shanghai. Tang Cheng got up early this morning
He came to the dock. To be honest, he didn't expect to wait for his target here. Tang Cheng would rather waste his time here just to verify his speculation. Now it seems that his judgment was not wrong.
An hour later, Tang Cheng returned to the New Asia Hotel. The hotel waiter, whom he had already bribed with money, brought good news to Tang Cheng. The target was indeed to take a warship south to Shanghai, but the target was not the same as the Japanese army in Shanghai.
Therefore, the goal of heading south to Shanghai chose to stay at the Xinya Hotel. The hotel waiter told Tang Cheng that although the Japanese colonel named Takada had taken off his military uniform, he was accompanied by more than a dozen guards.
They are elite veterans.
The hotel waiter also found out what Tang Cheng wanted to know most. When Colonel Takada took his people to stay at the Xinya Hotel, each of them brought a suitcase with them, but there was something wrong with the size of the suitcase. No.
Everyone knows, no one knows how many gold antiques Colonel Takada wants to bring back to Japan, but according to Tang Cheng's judgment, they only carry a dozen suitcases with them, which obviously cannot contain much.
However, according to the last piece of information revealed by the hotel waiter, after Takada and his party checked into the hotel, Colonel Takada only took two people out of the hotel, and everyone else stayed in the room without going out. The last piece of information revealed by the hotel waiter,
Tang Cheng began to hesitate. If Colonel Takada was carrying high-quality antiques, he would not need many suitcases. Tang Cheng casually took out a stack of banknotes and gave it to the hotel waiter, but did not ask for it. He continued
Staring at Colonel Takada and his party.
Tang Cheng’s current identity is that of a person who has been on the move
He is an antique broker who travels between China and Japan. Therefore, it is normal to learn that the rumored Colonel Takada has come to Shanghai and spend money to inquire about the relevant news. But if the other party has already checked into the New Asia Hotel
, Tang Cheng still found someone to keep an eye on the target, which was a bit unreasonable. Afterwards, Tang Cheng returned to the room and began to rethink the action steps. It was absolutely impossible to do it in the Xinya Hotel first.
Not to mention the dozens of people on the other side, there was no way for Tang Cheng to take those dozen suitcases out of the hotel safely. Especially what the other side wanted to bring back to Japan were gold antiques. Even if there were not many things, the weight would not be less than
The maximum capacity of Tang Cheng’s carry-on equipment bag. Tang Cheng, who was sitting in front of the window, had been thinking about countermeasures. Unknowingly, the sky had turned completely dark. Tang Cheng, who had been waiting to go downstairs for dinner, entered the hotel restaurant, but he still didn’t
Think of a solid solution!
However, Tang Cheng was not without gains in the hotel restaurant. At least he saw the rumored Colonel Takada in the restaurant. Many people in the hotel already knew about Colonel Takada, and it was these Japanese businessmen who came up one by one.
The gesture of greeting allowed Tang Cheng to easily confirm who was Colonel Takada. Colonel Takada's face looked a little pale, and he would occasionally cough a few times when he spoke. This was in line with his excuse for retiring due to injury.
.
Tang Cheng did not keep staring at the target, because after he confirmed that the middle-aged man was Colonel Takada, he immediately locked the opponent with system skills. In other words, from now on, as long as there is no relationship between him and Colonel Takada
Beyond the range of skill usage, Tang Cheng knew the opponent's position clearly. Tang Cheng also took a long time to eat this dinner because he wanted to confirm whether the dozen or so subordinates of Colonel Takada would come in another shift.
Eating in the restaurant. Facts have proved that Tang Cheng guessed correctly again. The dozen or so guards of Colonel Takada did come to eat after changing shifts.
Compared with looking at the pale-faced Colonel Takada, Tang Cheng paid more attention to these guards. Just as the hotel waiter said, these guards of Colonel Takada looked like elite Japanese veterans. They were calculated mentally but not carelessly, so Tang Cheng was not worried.
, whether he could get rid of these dozen elite guards, what he was most worried about now was how he could safely transport those suitcases out of the hotel. After dinner, Tang Cheng left the hotel and began to use the cover of night,
