"Well." Fan Keqin analyzed: "Yes, if this news is true, then the Japanese war reserve is really in the Southern District or Xiangfang."
Hua Zhang also agreed with Fan Keqin's analysis. If the little devil's convoy he saw at that time was transporting goods to other places, it would be better to go directly to the train station. Wouldn't it be more convenient to transport by train? So he said: "Even if some small counties need supplies, it is impossible to go there and back on the same day. And the news we have now is that they can come and go within one day."
As he spoke, Hua Zhang lowered his head and looked at the map. He was silent for a long time and said, "How about using the elimination method to find it?"
Fan Keqin pondered for a moment and said: "Wait a minute, the car... and it's a team, it can't disappear for no reason. The reason why we can't find out about the team now is because this team is still here. Only at the edge of the city can it block the view from the other side."
As he spoke, Fan Keqin made a gesture on the edge of the map with his left hand and said: "Look, my left hand is the motorcade. When the car drives here, which is the edge of the city, then the buildings on this side of the city will be... It will become a barrier and block the view from this side.”
Hua Zhang let out a soft "Huh" and said: "This hypothesis is quite reasonable. If it is true, it will explain the problem that we did not find out the final destination of the convoy. Because no one saw where the car finally went. Then...Japanese The combat reserve should be a large... building? Or a group, so that the figure and whereabouts of the Japanese convoy can be completely blocked."
"Yes." Fan Keqin said: "Assuming this idea is true, then the Southern District can also exclude most of the areas. There is only a corner in the southeast. Just let the brothers confirm it. After all, further south in the Southern District is Xiangfang , what about further east? It’s an area extending from the East District.”
"Well." Hua Zhang pointed at a few locations on the map with his hand and said, "That's right here. The only area less than one mile away is the edge of the city. So, compared with South District and Xiangfang... It is more likely that it is Xiangfang. But if it is Xiangfang, the edge of the city will be very large, and we are still a little bit confused."
Fan Keqin leaned back and let his back fully contact the chair, which made it more comfortable, and said: "In this way, just send three or four brothers to investigate the small edge of the South District. All the rest will be done Investigate the urban edge line of Xiangfang and find a relatively large building complex, community, factory, in short, a relatively large building. As long as there is any suspicion, write it down and report it immediately. If they investigate like this, they may be closer to the little devil. War preparation library, so...be careful not to investigate in depth rashly. Just write it down and report it first."
"Understood." Hua Zhang replied, stood up randomly and said, "I'm going to contact Captain Wang now."
Fan Keqin also stood up and said: "It's almost lunch. Let's go down together. It's quite normal to have lunch. I can watch behind you."
Hua Zhang said hello with a smile, put on his coat, and handed Fan Keqin's to the other party. The latter took it and said, "Let's go." The two of them went out immediately.
When they got downstairs and left the Madil Hotel, they passed through a shopping mall and were separated, with Hua Zhang in front and Fan Keqin behind.
Hua Zhang came to the public phone and started making calls. Fan Keqin was at a newsstand at the other end, casually flipping through newspapers and magazines while chatting with the boss.
After he finally selected a locally published magazine "Modern Architecture", he paid the money and walked directly forward. He then turned into a doorway and pretended to be waiting for someone. He lit a cigarette and looked at his watch. , take a look at the magazine. In fact, he was watching Hua Zhang's surroundings.
That was it, about a few minutes later, the phone rang again. Hua Zhang got through immediately and exchanged news with Wang Zhanyuan. After a while, he hung up the phone and walked out of the phone booth.
Fan Keqin saw the whole process clearly, and no one became Hua Zhang's tail. So he walked a little faster, and a few minutes later, he was shoulder to shoulder with Hua Zhang. When the two people turned to another street, Hua Zhang had already put his arm around Fan Keqin again. Transform into a couple or a young couple and get together.
Fan Keqin asked in a low voice: "How is it?"
"I've already talked to Brother Yuan." Hua Zhang replied, "He will arrange it. I haven't said anything else."
The rest is not mentioned, except that there are no special circumstances that need to be reported.
Seeing this, Fan Keqin said: "Okay, let's go eat."
The two of them walked forward for a while and saw a steamed dumpling restaurant on the side of the road. Then he walked in and ordered two drawers of donkey meat steamed dumplings. It's not cheap, especially these days. Fortunately, they are not short of money.
After eating, the two of them went shopping in the afternoon. The main reason was that now we had to wait for a reply, and there was no point in being anxious. So it was better to go shopping to make our behavior look normal. After all, if you hide in the Madill Hotel all day long, it will actually be easy to attract attention.
Just like that, the next day, the two of them went out again and wandered around the riverside, parks and other places for a whole day. At the agreed time in the evening, Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang contacted Wang Zhanyuan again using the same pattern as yesterday. This time there was still not much news, just a short sentence: "Southern District excluded."
This shows that Wang Zhanyuan has sent his brothers to scout the city boundary that is less than a mile away. Besides, he didn't say anything else. This means that there is no information from Ji Maosong's side. But this is not surprising, after all, Ji Maosong has just developed into their internal agent. In the epidemic prevention and water supply headquarters, if you think about it, you will know that the alert level must be relatively high.
Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for even a professional agent to sneak in and obtain useful information in a short period of time, let alone a non-professional like Ji Maosong. So this requires patience.
In addition, Wang Zhanyuan's "exclusion of the southern district" also illustrates another thing, that is, the war reserve of the Japs that may be hidden in the Xiangfang area, and they are still investigating. It's just that I haven't gotten any useful information yet.
After that, another two days passed, and the progress remained stagnant. The little devil's war arsenal is as if it is invisible. There was no progress at all.
Although Fan Keqin is very patient, he also has a concern, that is, if the investigation lasts for too long, any flaws will be exposed...
