A man with a beard and a slightly pitted face was enjoying his meal.
This is a window seat with a panoramic view of the Pujiang River. The scenery is infinitely better.
This should be one of the top dining environments in Shanghai, with dark red tables and chairs and green beams and columns. The entire restaurant is based on classic Chinese style.
Victor Sassoon's persistence and love for Eastern culture can be seen in the golden dragon and golden phoenix carved on the top of the center of the restaurant.
The bearded man took out his pocket watch and checked the time, then he snapped his fingers and pressed an old Lincoln card under the dinner plate.
The waiter handed over the hat politely, Stick.
The bearded man nodded like a gentleman, put on his top hat and held a stick in his hand. Shi Shiran left the restaurant and then took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor.
The agent of the Shanghai Special Situation Office, who was dressed as a doorman, glanced at the bearded man, with admiration and admiration in his eyes that was hard to hide.
This is the first time Hua An has met team leader Xiao Mianxiao. Thinking that he and the team leader are doing this operation together, Hua An feels particularly excited.
A black Ford car parked in front of the Chinachem Hotel.
Hua An saw the car's license plate clearly, immediately walked up to it, and opened the door diligently.
"Mr. Tao Huizongtao?" Hua An asked.
"It's me." Tao Huizong glanced at the doorman warily.
"Manager Que Yunque arranged for me to greet Mr. Tao early." Hua An said, "Manager Que went to the bathroom. He cannot come to greet you in person. He has entrusted me to express my apology to you."
Tao Huizong nodded, and then he said to the driver, "Drive the car home first. I will call if you want to use the car."
"Yes, sir." The driver said quickly, turned around at the door and drove back to the apartment where the Tao family lived in the French Concession.
At this time, a black car with a rental car phone number printed on it stopped at the door. A man in a suit and leather shoes got out of the car in a hurry. The man glanced at Tao Huizong and seemed to be relieved. It was okay. Slowly straighten your tie.
"Mr. Tao, please." Hua An looked at the man calmly.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Tao Huizong said.
"Just turn right after entering the door." Hua An said.
He watched Tao Huizong walking towards the restroom, and then noticed that the man standing at the door of the hotel adjusting his tie was also walking towards the restroom.
…
Xiao Mian put water in the bathroom and was washing his hands at the sink.
He washed his hands very roughly, leaving water all over the floor.
Tao Huizong came to the bathroom and looked around, but he was splashed with water. He couldn't help but frown, "Be careful."
Xiao Mian glanced at Tao Huizong and frowned, as if he was unhappy with the other person's attitude.
Tao Huizong didn't want to cause trouble, so he had to avoid going into the bathroom.
Then he was grabbed by the collar by the beard.
"I am Que Yun."
Just when Tao Huizong was about to shout loudly, Beard said in his ear.
Tao Huizong glanced at this person dubiously at first, and when he saw the other person nodded, his whole body suddenly relaxed.
This scene happened to be seen by the man in suits and leather shoes who followed Tao Huizong in.
At this time, in the corridor outside the bathroom, a waiter placed a sign on the ground:
The restroom is being unblocked and temporarily closed for use.
…
The man in a suit frowned at first.
Then he frowned, showing a look of disgust, and said, "What are you doing? This is the most upscale hotel in Shanghai."
"None of your business?" Xiao Mian looked at the man with a dark face and said with a cold snort.
"Sir, do you need me to call someone to handle it for you?" The man asked Tao Huizong politely, ignoring the beard.
Hearing what the man in suits and ties said, the bearded man loosened his grip on Tao Huizong's collar and looked at the man coldly.
"Little Yakuza, you are looking for death," he said.
Hearing this, the man in suit and leather shoes suddenly laughed, pointed at his beard and cursed, "You idiot who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, get out of here."
"Who are you?" The bearded man looked at the man in the suit with a solemn expression and asked with a frown.
"Anyway, he's someone you can't afford to offend." The man in the suit said with a sneer.
"I am from the Daodao City Government." The bearded man said hesitantly.
"Get out!" The man in the suit said coldly.
"Brother, please speak politely." The bearded face turned red, and he touched his hand to his jacket pocket and said angrily, "Show this business card to the person above you."
"I want to see what the business card is." The man in the suit snorted disdainfully and walked forward in two steps.
As the bearded hand took out his suit pocket, the man in the suit leaned forward slightly.
It was at this time.
Xiao Mian also leaned forward suddenly, raised his left hand, and directly hugged the man in the suit's neck with force, covering his mouth at the same time, and the blade in his right hand quickly slid across the man's neck in the suit.
Almost instantly, when the blood in his throat was about to gush out, the thick white towel that had been placed on the sink for a long time and could be used to put things on it was pulled over by Xiao Mian with great skill and skill. He quickly wrapped it around the man in the suit's neck, tightly wrapped it tightly, and circled it around, sucking the blood that was about to gush out.
…
Tao Huizong was right in front of him. He was stunned and stared at all this in horror.
"It's okay, let's clean up the garbage." The bearded man smiled at Tao Huizong, "The person No. 76."
Gudong.
Tao Huizong swallowed, and all he could do was nod subconsciously.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the bathroom door.
"Come in." Xiao Mian whispered.
Two Secret Service agents dressed as waiters came in.
"Team leader, are you okay?"
"Take care of it, deal with it thoroughly." Xiao Mian said in a deep voice.
"Yes." The two men stepped forward and directly put a heavy windbreaker on the man in the suit, and thoughtfully raised the collar of the windbreaker, and then helped the newly born drunkard out with one hand on the left and the other on the right.
Xiao Mian looked at his right hand and saw a few drops of blood on his nails. He frowned, turned on the faucet, rinsed it carefully and slowly, and said to himself: "As I get older, my skills are not as good as before. .”
Then he looked at Tao Huizong with a smile and said, "Mr. Tao, time is pressing, please come with me."
Tao Huizong nodded and followed the bearded man who had just killed Agent No. 76 in an instant without saying a word.
When he came to the entrance of the corridor, the bearded man said to the waiter standing by the maintenance sign, "The toilet is blocked and there is a toilet on the ground. How can we do business?"
"I'm really sorry, I'll clean it now." The waiter apologized quickly. He took the maintenance sign and placed it in the middle of the corridor, then walked to the bathroom with a bucket and mop.
…
Tao Huizong followed the fierce manager Que out of the bathroom corridor, turned right, followed a corridor to the end, turned left and walked dozens of steps before arriving at a hidden side door.
"This is the small door used by employees." Manager Que turned to Tao Huizong and said.
"Um."
After exiting the small door, a black Citroën car had been waiting for a long time.
A Special Intelligence Agent immediately opened the car door without saying a word.
"Mr. Tao, please." Manager Que said.
The two of them got into the car.
The driver immediately started the vehicle, and the car drove out of the back alley and soon disappeared into the busy flow of people.
"Also, there is Brother Gao." Tao Huizong said hurriedly.
"Mr. Tao, don't worry, Mr. Gao has his own arrangements." Manager Que turned to look at Tao Huizong and said in a deep voice, "You two will meet in a while."
He stared at Tao Huizong and asked with a serious expression, "Mr. Tao, can you bring the photo?"
"When I get to the place, the photos will definitely arrive." Tao Huizong nodded, but did not say where the photos were.
Manager Que smiled and said nothing.
"This is your new identity." Manager Que handed a note to Tao Huizong, "Here are three names, all of which you can use to board the ship."
At the same time, he handed over the ferry tickets and said, "Here are three tickets."
He pointed at the note and said, "The name on the front is the upper class cabin, the name in the middle is the middle cabin, the name on the back is the lower cabin, whichever you choose."
He told Tao Huizong, "You must remember your name and don't make a mistake."
Tao Huizong nodded. He stared at the note in his hand and remembered the name firmly.
The military manager Que gave three names:
Qu Renhong, Shi Zhicheng, Li Wenzheng.
"I remember." Tao Huizong nodded.
Manager Que glanced at Tao Huizong and smiled in his heart.
He noticed that Tao Huizong's eyes had actually been fixed on the name Qu Renhong.
After all, he has not been trained, and his every move is full of mistakes.
"What name did Brother Gao use?" Tao Huizong asked immediately.
"There are also three names. We don't know which one he will choose." Manager Que shook his head.
He knew what Tao Huizong was worried about, so he said, "Don't worry, you are on the same boat. You will naturally find each other on the boat."
…
Chinachem Hotel.
A black Ford car stopped at the door.
Hua An saw the license plate and took the initiative to open the door.
"Mr. Gao Qingwu?" he asked.
Gao Qingwu nodded.
"Mr. Tao is already waiting for you in the restaurant." Hua An said.
He extended his hand and said, "Mr. Gao, please come with me."
Gao Qingwu seemed to hesitate for a moment, he was not sure of the other party's identity.
"Manager Que is talking to Mr. Tao," Hua An said again.
Hearing this, Gao Qingwu breathed a sigh of relief, followed the doorman into the hotel, and walked towards the restaurant.
At this time, a rickshaw stopped in front of the Chinachem Hotel.
A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses hurriedly got out of the car and hurried into the hotel.
"Hello, sir, do you want someone to accompany you?" A graceful woman in a cheongsam came up to him immediately and directly took the man's arm.
"Go away." The man said with a sinister look on his face.
"Oh, sir, how can you be so cruel?" the woman said, "he's so scary."
As she said this, the woman winked and said, "Sir, if you bring someone in, they will do anything for you."
The man immediately knew what the woman did.
This person is not qualified to enter the Chinachem Hotel and wants to hook up with a male companion.
He was about to get angry again, but something moved in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face, "Okay, you come with me in."
As he spoke, he pinched the woman's cheek.
…
Pooh!
Taozi washed his hands under the faucet. With a livid face, he washed his cheeks with water.
On the ground beside him, there was a corpse lying on the ground.
This man was strangled to death with a rope.
The man was still resisting at the time, so Taozi used his knee to hit the opponent's waist. The rope was just strong enough to prevent the throat from making any noise, and it was also convenient for strangulation.
He clapped his hands.
Two Secret Service agents came in.
"Team leader."
"Take care of it," Taozi said coldly.
"yes."
The same operation was performed, a windbreaker was put on, and a fresh drunkard was carried out by two men dressed as servants.
Tao Zi took out her lipstick from the bag and 'touched up her makeup'. Then, the graceful woman held the small bag, twisted her waist, and with a slightly painful expression on her face, walked out of the main entrance of the Chinachem Hotel and called out A rickshaw left.
…
Qiujiang Pier.
"Mr. Tao, I won't get out of the car to see you off personally." Manager Que said with a smile.
"Thank you to the hero for saving what happened today." Tao Huizong said gratefully, "May I ask the hero's real name?"
Listening to Tao Huizong's eloquent questions, Manager Que smiled. He could see that Mr. Tao was asking very sincerely, not because he wanted to inquire about anything, but because he really wanted to remember his benefactor's name.
"Que Yun." Manager Que said with a smile. He shook hands with Tao Huizong and said, "I wish Mr. Tao a safe journey."
"Thank you." Seeing that Manager Que was unwilling to reveal his name, Tao Huizong was a little sad, but he also expressed his understanding. He shook hands with the other person and said in a sincere tone, "Please take care of yourself."
Seeing Tao Huizong get out of the car and line up to board the ship, Manager Que nodded slightly, and an agent from the Special Intelligence Division also got out of the car and followed him quietly.
His job is to protect along the way.
About a moment later, a black Ford car drove over.
The car door opened.
Gao Qingwu got off the car.
He waved to the car and then walked straight towards the boarding team.
Manager Que was sitting in the car watching this scene from a distance. He was a diplomat and his movements were quite capable.
Then he saw a rickshaw running past the pier, and he vaguely saw Taozi, disguised as a woman, peeking out from the rickshaw's shed. Cheng Qianfan couldn't help laughing, and the corner of his mouth raised a curve.
…
Ocean liner President Hoover.
Tao Huizong chose to use the identity of Qu Renhong and used a first-class ticket.
He had carefully considered it, not because he was greedy for the enjoyment of the upper class cabin. He consciously used his own demeanor and conversation to use the middle cabin or the lower cabin. He was not confident in successfully pretending, and he was even more worried that he would not be in that environment. Improve the ability to cope with inspections.
After finding his bed, Tao Huizong breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.
However, as long as the ship did not weigh anchor and sail away, his heart could not calm down.
In addition, he has been worried that although the manager Que said that Gao Qingwu could find him and join him, he was a little worried that the two of them would not be able to find each other because there were so many people on this ship.
