Another attack on military police and plainclothes broke out in the concession, which made the already overwhelmed military police headquarters and special higher education department furious. A large number of military police and plainclothes were urgently transferred into the concession. Unfortunately, after a search, they still found nothing. However,
According to what No. 76 subsequently reported, the cause of today's attack was a group of underground party members captured by No. 76 in the concession. According to the traces left at the scene of the incident, the situation was indeed what No. 76 said.
The first to be attacked were the people from No. 76.
But no matter what, they were the ones who suffered serious losses, so the search must continue to find the elusive attacker. At this time, Tang Cheng had quietly returned to Hongkou District, relying on the book in his hand.
With his expatriate certificate, Tang Cheng checked into the Xinya Hotel again. Among the Japanese businessmen Tang Cheng had met here before, only one named Fujita was still living in the hotel. When he saw Tang Cheng, Fujita behaved
very happy.
When asked by the other party why he was not in Shanghai during this period, Tang Cheng just said that he had gone to Tianjin. This time he came to Shanghai to take a boat back to Japan in a few days. Tang Cheng looked like he had made money in Tianjin.
His face made Fujita even more enthusiastic. He was a well-traveled Fujita, and he was very aware of the huge profits from the antique business. Fujita traveled between Shanghai and Japan all the year round, and he also knew many people in Hongkou District. With him as a cover, Tang
Cheng believes that no one in the Xinya Hotel will provoke him.
Because of the continuous attacks, the Japanese army in Shanghai strengthened their control over Shanghai. Because of the previous suspicions of the Mei Agency and the Special High School, they also strengthened their control over Hongkou District. When Tangcheng checked in at the hotel, if not for the coincidence
Fujita, he might be questioned by the military police in the hotel lobby. Tang Cheng settled down in Xinya Hotel with peace of mind and did not go out for several days, but he chatted and drank with Fujita every day.
On the afternoon of the third day, Tang Cheng was dragged by Fujita to wander around Hongkou District. The two of them were just hanging out. Unfortunately, when they returned to the hotel, they met an acquaintance of Fujita, and the three of them went to a nearby izakaya to kill time.
.Generally, the best time for izakaya business is after dark, but today, for some unknown reason, the business of the izakaya they went to in Tangcheng was very good. As soon as Tangcheng entered, he saw people sitting in the lobby of the izakaya.
There were many Japanese soldiers, and there were even Japanese officers coming and going in the private room on the second floor.
The three people in Tangcheng went directly to the private room on the second floor. However, this Japanese-style building is not soundproof, and the noise next door was hard to hear.
The extraordinary Tang Cheng heard it clearly. These Japanese soldiers and officers in the Ganqing Izakaya had just withdrawn from the frontline battlefield to rest. They all belonged to the Kondo Brigade. Kondo Hotel encountered a strong enemy this time and suffered casualties.
Not to mention the heavy casualties, high-ranking officers also suffered heavy casualties. Removing them from the front line for repairs was actually just an excuse. The Japanese commander was worried that the Kondo brigade would be beaten to the point where its designation would be revoked.
These Japanese soldiers and officers who appeared in the izakaya had obtained the approval of the brigade superiors and returned to Japan to visit their families. After a short leave, they would be recalled and continue to serve on the front line. Originally, this kind of thing would not be possible in Tangcheng.
It was just something the officers next door said inadvertently that aroused Tang Cheng's interest. These officers of the Kondo Brigade not only returned to Japan to visit their families, they also had another mission, which was
He returned to Japan with the ashes of several high-ranking officers in the brigade.
Apart from the ashes, which they brought back to Japan, these high-ranking officers also looted a lot of property from China. From the conversation between the Japanese officers in the private room next door, Tang Cheng also knew that these guys lived just a few meters away.
In a hotel not far from the izakaya, the belongings and ashes they planned to bring back to Japan were placed in their hotel room. Tang Cheng, who had a thought in his mind, subconsciously reached out and touched his chin, thinking this
It would be a bit of a disadvantage if we pretended not to see the benefits of having it delivered to our door!
It just so happened that his carry-on equipment bag had been fully upgraded. The capacity of the equipment bag now exceeded one hundred kilograms, and now at least more than half of the extra space was unused. Tang Cheng, who had made up his mind, pretended to accompany Fujita.
The two drank and chatted, while secretly paying attention to the conversation in the private room next door. There were many people in the private room next door, and they were very noisy. The affected Fujita gradually became impatient. Fortunately, with Tang Cheng's persuasion, nothing happened.
Fujita was in a bad mood and could only choose to get up and leave.
Tang Cheng did not choose to leave halfway, but returned to the hotel with Fujita, and forced Fujita to drink another cup of tea. Only then did Tang Cheng let him go. Tang Cheng waited until night fell, and Ciao walked out of the window of the hotel room.
Leave, follow the route I wrote down during the day, and rush to the izakaya I visited during the day, because
Because only by finding the izakaya first could Tang Cheng find the hotel where the officers of the Kondo Brigade stayed. Half an hour later, Tang Cheng, dressed in black, appeared in the back alley of the hotel. After listening carefully to the surrounding movements, Tang Cheng moved toward the hotel.
The roof throws flying claws.
According to what Tang Cheng heard in the izakaya in the afternoon, these officers from the Kondo Brigade live on the third floor of this hotel. Because there is a police station two blocks away from the hotel, the security in this area is pretty good.
But they never thought that someone would be watching them tonight. After Tang Cheng, dressed in black, activated his light body skill, he quickly began to climb up the rope under his flying claws. After a few breaths, he
Climbed up to a window on the third floor.
Through the window, Tang Cheng could hear the snoring in the room. He slowly stepped on the edge of the window with his toes. After steadying himself, Tang Cheng took out a small tool from his equipment bag and began to pry open the window. This house
The windows of the hotel are all made of pure wood, and even the latch inside the window is made of wood, so it is not difficult for Tang Cheng to pry open the window. Tang Cheng's movements were very light and did not wake up the two sleeping people in the room.
Until Tang Cheng climbed through the window, the snoring of the two people in the room never stopped.
Tang Cheng, who had turned on the triple eyepiece skill, could see clearly at this moment. There were two sets of Japanese military uniforms hanging on the hangers on the wall of the room. The two people living here should be the officers of the Kondo Brigade who were about to return to Japan. Tang Cheng moved lightly.
Walking to the bed, he slowly stretched out his hands, covered the target's mouth and nose with one hand, made a fist with the other hand, and hit the target hard on the left chest with a Phoenix Eye fist. Tang Cheng's strength was far beyond that of ordinary people, and Phoenix Eyes
The punch was inherently damaging, but this punch immediately put the man lying on the bed into a state of shock.
After taking care of the man on the bed on the left, Tang Cheng immediately turned around and followed the same example to kill the Japanese officer on the other bed. After successfully taking care of the two people in this room, Tang Cheng walked behind the door and listened carefully to what was going on outside.
After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he began to search the entire room. In a short time, Tang Cheng found an urn and a large bag of gold and silver jewelry from the two boxes under the bed. Tang Cheng ignored the urn, but
I immediately opened the package of gold and silver jewelry and found that they were just ordinary items.
In the next half hour, Tang Cheng cleaned all the rooms on the third floor of the hotel. The dozen or so Japanese officers who lived in the rooms on the third floor were all asleep and were quietly sent to the ground by Tang Cheng.
Prison. After searching all the rooms, Tang Cheng finally found a suitcase containing dozens of gold bars and two boxes of porcelain calligraphy and paintings in one of the rooms. These were Tang Cheng's biggest gains tonight. Those in the room
Tangcheng deliberately did not clean up the corpses, but Tangcheng took away all their IDs.
In the early morning, Tang Cheng, dressed in black, followed the rope and quietly returned to his room. There were only four hours left until daybreak. After changing his clothes, Tang Cheng, who was not sleepy, sat quietly in front of the window.
Tang Cheng's stay in Shanghai this time has already exceeded a month. According to the agreement between him and Zhang Jianghe, he should have returned to Chongqing long ago. Thinking about it carefully at the moment, Tang Cheng seemed to have nothing else to do.
Let yourself stay in Shanghai.
Tang Cheng has always wanted to contact Xu Huanshan, but unfortunately Xu Huanshan disappeared. As for those people in the underground party organization in Shanghai, Tang Cheng does not want to contact them now. Tang Cheng has no intention of joining the underground party organization, so he took the initiative to contact Xu Huanshan
, and even took the initiative to help Xu Huanshan, just to do something to help the country. Although Tang Cheng has been branded as a military commander because of his father, Tang Cheng believes that he has never done anything detrimental to the country.
Time passed little by little as Tang Cheng's thoughts spread. When the sky brightened, Tang Cheng left the hotel after packing. He was now going to buy a boat ticket to leave Shanghai. There was news about the ship going south in the morning, or Fujita told him yesterday.
Tangcheng's. If everything goes well, Tangcheng will appear on the deck of the cruise ship heading south in half an hour. Perhaps Tangcheng's luck has returned. When he rushed to the pier, he happened to catch up with someone who refunded the ticket, and was
Tangcheng got a bargain. After getting the ticket, Tangcheng breathed a sigh of relief. There was only less than half an hour left before boarding the ship.
While Tangcheng was queuing up to board the ship, Hongkou District was already in turmoil because the bodies in the hotel were discovered. A dozen army officers who had just been withdrawn from the front line were killed. This is no small matter.
After receiving the report, the Military Police Headquarters immediately dispatched a large number of military police to block the street where the hotel where the incident occurred was located. At the same time, they also blocked all external passages in Hongkou District, because according to their judgment, the murderer committed the crime at night and should still be in Hongkou District.
The top brass of the Military Police Headquarters, who thought they were smart, neglected to block the dock. By the time they launched a comprehensive search, Tang Cheng had already boarded the ship and left the dock.
