Within one day, two murders involving shootings in the street occurred in the concession. Although the victims were not well-known figures, as the case was investigated, the concession patrol room suddenly discovered that they had no investigation on hand.
to find any available clues. The superiors of the Concession Patrol Office and the Ministry of Industry Bureau were very dissatisfied with the investigation of the case. Tang Cheng, who had completed the two assassinations, was also very dissatisfied.
"Uncle Yu, can you tell the headquarters that little guys like Cao Manjiang will stop attacking me? I thought these two were unobstructed figures. Before taking action, I
I also spent a lot of time planning the action steps. Unexpectedly, it only took 2 hours to get together, Cao Manjiang and the guy named Zhao, I easily solved them!"
Tang Cheng knew that the intelligence agency headquarters wanted to assassinate Cao Manjiang and the traitorous businessman named Zhao. There was definitely an inside story behind this that he had not thought of, but he did not want to know the so-called inside story. Therefore, Tang Cheng gave Boss Yu a plan afterwards.
When he made the call, he deliberately put on such a conceited face, believing that with Boss Yu's shrewdness, he would definitely understand his attitude. In fact, Boss Yu did not expect that Tang Cheng's actions would be so fast and violent.
It only took such a short time to solve the first two goals.
As for Tang Cheng’s thoughts, Boss Yu didn’t hear it, because Boss Yu didn’t want to delve into the deeper inside story. People who work in intelligence work always don’t like to get to the bottom of things too much, because they believe in an iron law, the better they know, the more they know.
The more people die, the sooner they will die. "Stop talking to me about useless things! It's best not to go out these days! You'll be busy again in a few days!" Boss Yu laughed and cursed on the other end of the phone, and then reminded Tang Cheng, again
There were a few days when Shimakawa came to Shanghai.
The profound meaning of Boss Yu's words was clearly understood by Tang Cheng. Although the information provided by the Intelligence Division headquarters was less, Tang Cheng didn't care. "Uncle Yu, don't worry, as long as a human being lives in this world,
, will always leave traces! That Shimokawa, as long as he comes to Shanghai, he can't hide and not show up all the time. As long as he shows up, I can find him." Tang Cheng did not say too much on the phone.
It's too obvious, but the meaning is fully expressed.
After having this phone call with Boss Yu, in the next two days, Tang Cheng only traveled between his residence and Hans's restaurant. Since Boss Yu was unable to do anything, Tang Cheng wanted to make sure that after Shimakawa came to Shanghai
For the purpose of finding a foothold, we can only turn to Hans, an old friend. Damn it.
With Hans' help, Tang Cheng finally got a copy of Shimakawa's schedule from the Japanese military police headquarters the day before Shimakawa came to Shanghai.
From this schedule prepared by the Japanese Military Police Headquarters, it is not difficult for Tangcheng to draw the conclusion that Shimakawa came to Shanghai with a secret mission. In this seven-day schedule, there will not be two consecutive days.
The order given to him by the Intelligence Division headquarters was to assassinate someone else's intelligence expert named Shimakawa in Shanghai. Therefore, even if Tang Cheng saw something strange from this schedule, he did not inform him.
Boss Yu.
When Shimakawa came to Shanghai, he boarded a Japanese navy warship. It was impossible to do anything at the dock, so after getting the docking schedule in Tangcheng, he secretly planned to sneak into Hongkou District again. The Japanese Military Police Headquarters planned to sneak into Hongkou District again.
The itinerary arranged by Shimakawa was basically within the area controlled by the Japanese army. His destination was also arranged at the newly reopened New Asia Hotel. Moreover, when entering and leaving the New Asia Hotel, Shimakawa would be accompanied by a team of plainclothes soldiers.
military police.
It is quite difficult to assassinate such a target. You have to sneak into Hongkou District to find the opportunity. But it turns out that Tang Cheng’s plan to sneak into Hongkou District in advance is also very difficult, because he attacked the Japanese military hospital last time.
Things, the interrogation in Hongkou District is now much stricter. Not only are there more Japanese police on the streets, but there are also military police and agents in plainclothes. They are keeping an eye out for suspicious people on the streets. It only took 2 hours for Tangcheng to sneak into Hongkou District.
, I have been stopped several times to check my ID.
Such a situation was something Tang Cheng had not thought of beforehand, so he made a decisive decision and immediately gave up his previous idea. "Tang, you are too impatient! The Shimakawa you are looking for must not be an ordinary person!" In the restaurant's office
, Hans, who learned about this, spoke to comfort Tang Cheng. "At this time, you need to be more calm. To use an old Chinese saying, acting too hastily will cause problems." Hans's words did not make Tang Cheng happy.
He calmed down because he didn't listen to what Hans was saying at all.
This Shimakawa also has other tasks, and he will not stay in Shanghai for a long time. If he cannot kill this guy in Shanghai, he may completely lose his chance.
Yes. Tang Cheng's mind was very confused at the moment, but he didn't have a clue. After returning to his residence, Tang Cheng, who was alone in the study room, began to clean the gun as usual. It was not until he was about to go to bed that Tang Cheng finally thought of
came up with a solution.
"The current situation in Hongkou District is very bad. I tried to sneak in and take a look yesterday, but in less than 2 hours, the police and plainclothes military police checked my documents continuously." Tangcheng didn't sleep well all night.
I went to see Boss Yu early the next morning. His new plan needed to be approved by the Intelligence Division headquarters through Boss Yu. "The Xinya Hotel is also heavily guarded. Even if I can sneak in and find a chance to take action, I will not be able to do it after the fact."
I’m afraid I won’t be able to evacuate.”
"According to the schedule from the Japanese Military Police Headquarters, Shimakawa will not stay in Shanghai for long, so I was wondering if I could find out where Shimakawa went after he left Shanghai, and then I would find an opportunity to wait until he left.
We will do it after Shanghai." Tang Cheng's explanation made Boss Yu's eyes light up. If this Shima River cannot be solved in Shanghai, Tang Cheng's idea at the moment is not bad. After the target leaves Shanghai, his vigilance will definitely relax.
At this moment, Boss Yu already understood that Tang Cheng was here to seek help, so he had to immediately call the Intelligence Division headquarters and try to collect relevant intelligence through the Shanghai Station. Tang Cheng's existence was already considered highly confidential in the Intelligence Division headquarters.
, received an emergency telegram from Boss Yu, and the Intelligence Division headquarters responded quickly. The chief executive at the headquarters did not agree to Boss Yu’s request to contact the Shanghai Station. “The headquarters did not agree to use the Shanghai Station’s channels for collection.
Intelligence! But the headquarters agrees that you act in camera, even if the operation fails, it will be fine!"
The so-called camera operation meant that Tang Cheng had to take matters into his own hands, but Tang Cheng didn't believe the last sentence in the telegram. If the assassination failed, he would definitely face a lot of trouble. Another day passed.
Early the next morning, Tang Cheng went to Hongkou District. Compared with yesterday, there were no less plainclothes people in Hongkou District. This time, Tang Cheng did not wander around on the street. Instead, he took the newspaper and went to a warehouse first.
This warehouse is hiring.
The identity Tang Cheng used when entering Hongkou District was that of a Japanese expatriate. There are many down-and-out expats like him who came to Shanghai from Japan to seek a living, so seeing the tender-faced Tang Cheng appear here is not too distracting.
Attention people. Goods coming from Tangcheng
The purpose of Zhan was not to really lurk into Hongkou District, he just didn't want the whole fake identity he used to attract attention. After all, the first thing for Japanese expatriates who come to Shanghai to seek a living is to find a job.
Tang Cheng had a tender face, and the warehouse owner wanted to hire people who could do the job. Naturally, the warehouse owner looked down on him. Tang Cheng, who was rejected by the warehouse owner, did not show the slightest bit of frustration on his face.
Because of such an incident, his appearance in Hongkou District would not attract the attention of the plainclothes men. For the whole day, Tang Cheng did nothing but look for work in Hongkou District. As dinner time approached, Tang Cheng finally
I came across the Xinya Hotel.
The New Asia Hotel has reopened for business. Tang Cheng still knew this news from Boss Yu. He also knew about the recruitment of new Asia Hotel. Tang Cheng spent the whole day in Hongkou District with the purpose of doing it now.
Foreshadowing. The New Asia Hotel was short of a lot of manpower. Tang Cheng successfully entered the New Asia Hotel to work. However, he could not go to important positions and was only assigned to wash dishes and clean in the back kitchen.
Being able to sneak into the New Asia Hotel seems to be very effective in the assassination of Tang Cheng. However, Tang Cheng is vaguely worried. He is worried that the New Asia Hotel will attract Tekko to attack everyone in the hotel because of Shimakawa's arrival.
Conducting an identity verification investigation. While Tang Cheng secretly observed the situation in the Xinya Hotel, he secretly thought about how to overcome this difficulty, until he discovered that people from the Shanghai underground party appeared in the Xinya Hotel, and one of them was his former self.
seen.
When people from the Shanghai Underground Party appeared in the New Asia Hotel, Tang Cheng knew that there was definitely something going on that he didn't know about, and it was definitely not a trivial matter. Tang Cheng did not take the risk of contacting the Shanghai Underground Party people, he just secretly
Conducting observations and trying to find answers. Time passed quickly. In the busyness and secret observation of Tangcheng, another two days passed, and one day after that, it was the day when Shimokawa arrived in Shanghai.
There were two Shanghai underground gangsters who appeared at the New Asia Hotel. They were a man and a woman pretending to be a couple. Through careful observation, Tang Cheng confirmed that the man and woman should be action personnel, because the walking figure of the man and woman, at first glance,
They have just practiced. Could it be that they are also coming for that Shimakawa? Tang Cheng suddenly had an idea in his mind. Since the man and woman from the Shanghai underground party appeared here, could he join forces with them to carry out an assassination operation?
