Tang Cheng has nearly a hundred team members. Counting the families of these team members, Tang Cheng has to support the lives of more than 400 people. Without the support of these shops in the city, the search team may have been disbanded due to lack of funds. In order to support
These team members under Tang Cheng have tried their best. If the cost of purchasing information from informants is also included, the monthly expenditure of the search team has almost caught up with a second-level station among military unification stations.
of expenses.
The size of the tailor shop targeted by Tang Cheng is not small. The most important thing is that this tailor shop is actually a front shop and a house in the back. Not only is it very suitable for housing the family members of his team members, it can even be used as a place for Tang Cheng to build a business.
A hiding place in a state of emergency. From the earliest contact with the military commander in Nanjing, Tang Cheng actually never truly believed in the military commander. He spared no effort to help Zhang Jianghe climb up, just to be able to stay in Chongqing.
There is someone who can speak up.
So from the very beginning, ever since Tang Cheng decided to form a search team, he had been making a backup plan. Once the situation changed or the Tang family was targeted, Tang Cheng would activate this backup plan and the whole family would flee Chongqing.
Even domestically, these stores in Chongqing that the search team has are usually used to house team members' families and collect intelligence clues, but if needed, these stores may become the source of riots in the city.
Tangcheng would never have too many places like this, so from the moment it set its sights on tailor shops, Tangcheng had already made preparations to accept them. At this moment, Tangcheng had made its attitude clear, and Zhang Jianghe, who wanted to stop them, just
It was difficult to continue to object, but Bai Zhanshan vaguely agreed with Tangcheng's decision to arrest people immediately, because in his opinion, only if the Japanese and puppet agents lurking in the city were caught, would it be a definite achievement, and vice versa would be empty talk.
Time passed little by little, and the situation in the street outside was also reported to the oil mill from time to time by the team members disguised as guests. About an hour later, a young man who looked like he was just in middle school was carrying a schoolbag and hurriedly walked from
Turning around the street in front, I saw the schoolbag carried by the young man in his left hand from a distance. The shopkeeper who was standing at the door of the oil shop and was chatting with people immediately made a vague gesture. The clerk who was wiping the counter in the oil shop understood and immediately carried the basin.
Went to the back to the back.
"Captain, our people have received news that the male target has appeared and is coming to the tailor shop." The waiter in the oil shop carrying the basin passed the news to the waiter behind the oil shop according to the sign language played by the shopkeeper.
Tangcheng. Before Tangcheng can react,
In response, Zhao Dashan and others, who had been waiting a little impatiently, turned to look at Tang Cheng in high spirits. They were waiting for Tang Cheng to give the order to start the operation. Tang Cheng did not hesitate at all, but just looked at Zhao Dashan lightly.
With a slight nod, the latter took the people and left quickly through the back door of the oil shop.
"Uncle Bai, let's go over and join in the fun! The two of us are dressed well together today. I will be the young master and you will be the housekeeper. Don't let anything slip!" Tang Cheng said and grabbed the rag on the corner of the table.
, leaned over and wiped the leather shoes on his feet. When Bai Zhanshan heard this, he looked at what Tang Cheng was wearing today. He looked like a rich young master from a rich family, and his plain short shirt did look like a butler.
.Zhang Jianghe is missing an arm and is not suitable for disguised investigation, so he needs to sit in the backyard of the oil mill.
Bai Zhanshan followed Tang Cheng and left from the back door of Youfang, followed the alley behind Youfang to the left, and then turned into the main street. When Bai Zhanshan and Tang Cheng entered the main street, Zhao Dashan and others who had left Youfang earlier had already
According to the action plan, the street where the tailor shop was located was faintly surrounded. When Bai Zhanshan saw Zhao Dashan, the latter had already changed his clothes and was sitting in a teahouse at the corner of the street silently monitoring the situation in the street.
"Xiao Wu, these people under you are pretty good! At least they are incomparable to those under Hai Guang!" Bai Zhanshan, who has entered the role state, has been one position behind Tangcheng. He looks like a follower who follows the young master at home.
Bai Zhanshan's words only made Tang Cheng secretly proud, but he did not answer the other party verbally, because Tang Cheng's attention at the moment was already focused on the man in Mao suit at the street entrance.
At this moment, the man in Chinese tunic who was noticed by Tang Cheng as soon as he crossed the street was Qian Songlin. Before Qian Songlin went out, he was still hesitating whether he should go to the tailor shop as agreed. A large number of administrative agencies were about to go south to Chongqing. The news had already been announced.
Rumor has spread within the city government. As a well-informed person, how could Qian Songlin not know about it? Although he has betrayed information many times, those are just trivial matters, not even classified as secrets. Now even the chairman of the committee is going south to Chongqing.
Qian Songlin had a hunch that the level of information the other party requested from him might be getting closer and closer to the level of confidentiality.
Selling general information and selling confidential information
Although Qian Songlin was not very clear about the difference, he knew that once he really handed over confidential information to the other party, he would really be on the pirate ship. Before leaving today, Qian Songlin made a thought in his heart.
I was struggling a lot, but my loan sharks were about to expire. If I couldn't raise the money to repay the debt, if the debtor came to the workplace, I might be fired from my job. Being fired from my job meant that I
Without a decent job, he became a jobless vagrant.
Qian Songlin worked hard to become what he is now. How could he allow himself to become an unemployed vagrant? After some psychological struggle, Qian Songlin decided to visit a tailor shop, because this was the only way he could get money.
To pay off the debt. Qian Songlin looked inconspicuous, but he was not useless at all. From the time he resold the first piece of information, Qian Songlin began to like watching detectives, and according to the plot in the book, he learned some detective skills by himself.
means of reconnaissance.
On the way to the tailor shop, Qian Songlin kept walking and used the anti-reconnaissance methods he had learned many times. Until Tang Cheng saw him, Qian Songlin did not notice the tracking team following him. Tang Cheng's first attack on Qian Songlin
At first glance, I don't think this person is a gambler who loves gambling, because Qian Songlin looks gentle and has a typical scholar's appearance. He has been to many casinos in Tangcheng, and has never seen someone like Qian Songlin.
People like Songlin hang out in casinos.
But when Tang Cheng saw Qian Songlin walking across the street and suddenly stopped on the street, looking sideways at the street window of the street shop, Tang Cheng immediately changed his original view of Qian Songlin. Qian Songlin was just a member of the Housing Department.
How could the section chief, Qian Songlin, who is a part-time job himself, know how to counter-reconnaissance? Although Qian Songlin's counter-reconnaissance looks very clumsy, it is not a skill that ordinary people should have. Tang Cheng feels that Qian Songlin may have something hidden in him.
Holding a big secret.
Qian Songlin tried to use the street window of a street shop to see if he was being followed, but it naturally ended in failure. Qian Songlin was secretly relieved that no abnormality was found, and then went straight to the tailor without staying any longer.
shop. Tang Cheng, who discovered the target in advance, had already reached the door of the tailor shop ahead of Qian Songlin. From the corner of his eye, he saw Qian Songlin coming in this direction. Tang Cheng tilted his lips and smiled slightly, and entered the tailor shop first.
Now is not the time when there is the greatest flow of people, and there are no other people in the tailor shop.
When his customers, Tang Cheng and Bai Zhanshan, walked into the tailor shop, there was only one boy in the shop, half-lying on the cloth counter in a daze with nothing to do. When he saw the customers entering the shop, the boy hurriedly got up from the counter and stood up.
While saying hello, he also stepped on the bell pedal with his left foot to contact the backyard. Many shops in Chongqing have such bell pedals installed under the counters, which are used to contact the shopkeepers who are often in the backyard. After a few breaths, the tailor
The owner of the store appeared behind the counter.
This tailor shop not only sews clothes, but also sells various fashionable fabrics and some trinkets. When the owner of the tailor shop came out from the back, Tang Cheng was looking at the trinkets placed on the side counter with interest.
Seeing these trinkets, Tang Cheng thought of Zhou Hongzhuang and the twin girls at home. After returning from Shanghai, it seemed that he had not spent time with his family seriously. Tang Cheng, who was secretly blaming himself, planned to buy some trinkets here.
, take it back and give it to your family when you have time.
Tang Cheng was dressed like a rich young man at the moment, especially the leather shoes on his feet and the watch on his wrist, which looked very valuable. The female owner of the tailor shop just glanced at Tang Cheng and immediately relaxed her attitude toward Tang Cheng.
Cheng's vigilance. In her opinion, military intelligence officers would not be so showy, and Tang Cheng's face looked too tender. According to her estimation, Tang Cheng should just be wandering around on vacation.
Rich students.
As for Bai Zhanshan, who was wearing a short shirt, the female owner of the tailor shop didn't pay much attention, because as soon as Bai Zhanshan entered the door, she kept looking at the posters of actresses posted on the wall of the tailor shop. The young master from a wealthy family went out with
There is nothing curious about this. "Take this out and show me." Tang Cheng was greeting the boy in the tailor shop and took out small accessories from the counter. The bell hanging above the shop door rang again.
After getting up, Qian Songlin came in from outside at this time.
Qian Songlin obviously didn't expect that there were other people in the tailor shop. He wanted to say hello to the female owner of the tailor shop, but he forcefully swallowed the words that came to his lips. Qian Songlin's unusual behavior did not escape him.
Bai Zhanshan and Tang Cheng secretly observed, but both of them chose to remain silent. They were just waiting for Qian Songlin to pretend to buy fabrics, and when he actually walked to the fabric counter, Tang Cheng, who had been leaning over to look at the trinkets, finally
He stood up straight and made a gesture towards Bai Zhanshan.
