Team leader "Portrait", formerly known as Matsumoto Shinichi, pseudonym Zheng Yi, assistant manager of Wenyuan Hotel, in charge of catering business;
"Blue Crab", whose real name is Takagi Hōro and alias Takagi, is the comprador of Wenyuan Hotel. He serves as a liaison in the group and is also responsible for sending, receiving and compiling telegrams with the Japanese base camp;
"Stone Crab", whose real name is Anqi Tianzhong and pseudonym Tian An, is a repairman and action team member of "Yihe" Automobile Maintenance Company;
"Flower Crab", whose real name is Goto Vision and pseudonym Shi Yuan, is a clerk at Boyuan Bookstore and an action team member;
"Red Crab", Sato Yoshihiro, pseudonym Zuo Yang, unemployed, action team member.
The five members of the "Crab Group" came to Nanjing first, Yunko Nakano, and with the Central Daily News as the center, except for Sato Yoshihiro who was a mobile force and did not find a job, the other four found legitimate occupations that could hide their true identities.
The main task of the "Crab Group" is to assist Nakano Yunzi in carrying out rebellion work, and at the same time responsible for its security and liaison with the Japanese base camp.
Because of his work, Matsumoto Shinichi has access to the list of people dining at the Laiwen Garden Hotel. Especially when important officials from the Propaganda Department come to dine, he will always know about it as soon as possible.
It was he who provided the news to Nakano Yunzi that Pang Xinghan and Zhu Daoshan came to Wenyuan for dinner.
Yesterday, he made an excuse to go to the notice board to read the job advertisement, saw the signal sent by Yunzi Nakano, and immediately ordered Takagi Toro to retrieve the information in the name of buying vegetables.
After reading the intelligence, Matsumoto Shinichi did not delay and ordered Takagi Tororo to inform the other three action team members and come to his office after get off work to discuss the action plan.
He has his own office in the hotel, which is very confidential. The hotel is also a place with a high turnover of people. If five people gather in one place, they will not attract special attention from others.
After discussion, Matsumoto Shinichi ordered Sato Yoshihiro to inspect the route the next day and formulate an action plan.
Today, Sato Yoshihiro took a trip along the route provided by Nakano Yunko and came back to report to Matsumoto Shinichi.
"Zheng Xiangli, look, this is a picture I drew based on the terrain on the ground. In my opinion, the Shizhao Bridge should be the best place for an ambush."
"Tell me the reason." Matsumoto said.
"This is the only way for prison cars to pass through. When passing through the bridge hole, as long as we put a crossbar or stone to the north of the bridge hole, the prison car will have to stop. Moreover, the bridge hole is narrow and difficult to turn around. When the time comes, we will be unexpectedly swarmed up.
, it’s done.” Sato Yoshihiro said.
"What's the surrounding terrain like?" Matsumoto Shinichi asked.
"There are no houses within a hundred meters, it's all weeds half as tall as a man." Sato Yoshihiro said.
Matsumoto Shinichi looked at the map, thought about it carefully and said: "This is indeed a perfect ambush location. This time the prison car hijacking must be done cleanly, no one alive can be left alive at the scene, and no clues can be left. This bridge hole is just right.
Let us achieve our goals."
"In order to ensure timely and accurate action, we need to find a car, follow behind the prison car, and turn on the lights to send a signal when we approach the bridge. This way we can be foolproof," Sato Yoshihiro added.
"Okay, let's do it!" Matsumoto nodded and agreed to Sato Yoshihiro's suggestion.
…
At 10:20, Shu Qi quietly came to the house and reported to Lin Chuang: "Team leader, someone is coming. There are four people in total, ambushing on the east and west sides of the bridge."
"Okay, I understand." Lin Chuang said.
"There can't be only four people. Four people are looking for death against seven guards? There must be others." Lin Chuang thought.
In order to prove his judgment, Lin Chuang picked up the phone and called Sun Shengli: "Captain Sun, what's going on there?"
"Report to the team leader, everything is normal." Sun Shengli replied.
"Is there any suspicious vehicle?" Lin Chuang asked.
"A car just stopped in front of the Kaifeng Pie Shop. The lights were turned off, but no one got out," Sun Shengli replied.
At the same time, Sun Shengli admired Lin Chuang, the young team leader: "The team leader is really awesome. He called just as the car stopped. He is really a god."
"How many people are in the car? Do you have a license plate?" Lin Chuang's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Report to the team leader, there is no license plate and the person in the car cannot be clearly seen. Do you want to go over and have a look?" Sun Shengli replied.
"What are you looking at? Keep an eye on that car, wait for the prison car to come out, and see if it is following the convoy. If it is, follow it and don't be alarmed. When the fight starts in front, you can take its back path." Lin
Chuang said angrily.
"Yes, I understand!" Sun Shengli heard the unkindness in Lin Chuang's tone and replied quickly.
Putting down the phone, Lin Chuang thought to himself: "Okay, there is only one car, plus four people on top, for a total of eight people, I have enough manpower." Thinking of this, Lin Chuang felt relieved.
At eleven o'clock, just as Lin Chuang was about to get up and go out, the phone rang. It was Sun Shengli calling.
"Report to the team leader, the prison van has set off, and the suspicious car followed it without turning on its headlights." Sun Shengli's voice was very low, and you could hear excitement and nervousness in his voice.
"Okay, follow up immediately, remember not to disturb it." Lin Chuangming said.
"Yes!" Sun Shengli agreed loudly.
Lin Chuang put down the phone, pulled out his pistol, turned on the safety, and said to Shu Qi: "The convoy has already set off, followed by a car. You are in charge of the north of the bridge, and I will go to the south of the bridge to take a look."
"Team leader, you don't want to go, just give instructions in the room. I will not disappoint the team leader in my humble position." Shu Qi said excitedly.
"Obey the order!" Lin Chuang said seriously.
Of course Lin Chuang knew that Shu Qi had good intentions.
However, he was responsible for rescuing Zhang Shouzheng and his wife, and also wanted to see if the "threesome" could successfully rescue Xu Tao. He had to go to the scene, how could he hide in the house?
"Yes." Seeing that Lin Chuang insisted on going to the scene in person, Shu Qi had no choice but to agree. With a wave of his hand, a group of his men followed him and quietly sneaked out of the surveillance point.
Lin Chuang quietly followed behind, and when others were not paying attention, he made a large circle, sneaked to the south of the bridge, and squatted in the grass.
"I wonder if the trio is here? Where are they hiding?" Lin Chuang looked around, but couldn't see anything in the darkness.
"Yi Lianhua, please don't let me down. I have spent a lot of effort on today's layout." Lin Chuang prayed secretly.
At this time, Lin Chuang was filled with expectations, worries, and nervousness, and all kinds of emotions filled his heart, making his nerves highly tense, but the spiritual platform was unusually clear.
His eyes were fixed on the south, waiting for the moment of the three-party melee to come.
Not long after, a total of four lights, one behind the other, pierced the darkness and shone from the south. At the same time, the sound of the car's motor became louder and louder.
"Here we come." Lin Chuang said secretly: "Little devil, don't let me down."
