"Wen Zongyao will leave the New Asia Hotel at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
"Is the source of intelligence reliable?"
"Very reliable." Meng Shaoyuan couldn't say. Is this the information provided by my old man?
Wu Jingyi came to the map: "Wen Zongyao will definitely return to Chen Lu. It is difficult for us to take action in the Japanese-controlled area. The best opportunity is after he enters the public concession. There are seven roads to choose from, but in the end he will definitely pass one of them. There are four roads that he cannot avoid no matter what."
"We have to choose the one among these four roads that he is most likely to pass through."
Meng Shaoyuan did not look at the map:
"The person responsible for protecting him is Li Shiqun. This is the first task that Li Shiqun has personally taken charge of after arriving in Shanghai. Li Shiqun's character is wavering, suspicious and fickle. It is difficult for us to determine which path he will take. Nan Sri Road.”
"Why?" Wu Jingyi was startled: "How can you be sure that he will take that path?"
"I'm not sure." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "He can choose any of these four roads. What I have to do is force him to follow the route I set!"
Wu Jingyi knew that Master Meng already had an idea in mind, so she didn't ask further: "If Li Shiqun is also in the convoy, then he can be killed together."
"He will not be in the convoy." Meng Shaoyuan said with great certainty: "I said, this person is suspicious, and he is also worried that we will get information from some sources and assassinate Wen Zongyao. He is not willing to get involved. So. , he must have planned the route in advance, as well as the response plan in case of emergency, and commanded remotely from behind the scenes!"
After finishing speaking, he thought for a moment: "Let Xu Zhu lead the team, mobilize the best forces, and get a batch of weapons from here. Tell him that I will personally direct this attack!"
Direct it personally?
Wu Jingyi didn't know that Meng Shaoyuan was preparing to roll up his sleeves and go into battle in order to help his father get rid of his political opponents!
…
November 22, 1938.
"Meng Sang, I have to go to work."
"No need to go to work."
Meng Baifeng turned over and hugged Tomoko again: "I have already asked for leave for you."
"Take leave, can you help me?"
"I called Kenji Doihara directly. You can stay with me today without having to go to work."
"Ah, you actually called Mr. Doihara directly because of our matter?"
"Why not?"
"Then the entire New Asia Hotel knows!"
"So what? It's not shameful to be my, Meng Baifeng's, woman."
"You are so bad...ah...you are so bad..."
Son, I have provided you with the information. You can handle the rest by yourself.
Don't delay your father and I are having a good time here.
Meng Baifeng sympathizes a lot with his son who lives in the street...
…
"Wen Zongyao left the New Asia Hotel at 3 o'clock and entered the concession at 4 o'clock."
Li Shiqun put down the document in his hand: "Is it possible that the news has been leaked?"
"Absolutely not. One group of people is responsible for picking up Wen Zongyao, and another group of people is responsible for sending Wen Zongyao off. They don't know what their tasks are."
"Okay, Han Li, remember, be careful. Wen Zongyao is an important member of the Nanjing government, and nothing can happen to him. Do you remember all the four routes clearly?"
"Remember everything clearly."
"As soon as any abnormal situation occurs, change the route immediately. Tell me again what an abnormal situation is."
"Yes. People who shouldn't be there appear, vehicles that shouldn't be there appear..."
Han Li gushed endlessly, saying everything in one breath.
"Well, it's no use just memorizing it, but learning and applying it."
Li Shiqun looked at the time: "It's almost time, let's go."
…
Meng Baifeng finally got up.
When Tomoko got out of bed, her feet were dangling.
She really didn't expect that Meng Baifeng's energy would be so strong.
If I could stay with this man forever, it would really be the happiest thing in the world.
But she also knew this was impossible.
No woman can keep a man like this by her side forever.
Meng Baifeng straightened his appearance in the mirror:
"Let's go eat."
…
He took Tomoko with him and ate at Xinya Hotel, completely ignoring the strange looks from Tomoko's colleagues.
He also drank some wine.
It's a separate bar.
He wouldn't stare at a woman all the time.
After dinner, he took Tomoko to the Jewish bar opposite and had afternoon tea.
Then, he saw several bodyguards hurriedly walking out of the New Asia Hotel, looking around as if facing a formidable enemy.
After a while, Wen Zongyao appeared, escorted by four people!
"boom"!
Meng Baifeng took a shot in his heart.
You are dead, Wen Zongyao.
Is it really that happy to be a traitor? He was always on tenterhooks all day, for fear that someone would come and assassinate him.
"Why."
Meng Baifeng suddenly sighed.
"What's the matter, Meng Sang, are you worried?" Tomoko asked with concern.
"Yes." Meng Baifeng sighed: "Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow, Doihara Kenji will come to see me."
"That must be something very important, right?"
Meng Baifeng nodded: "Someone is about to die, and I am the target of suspicion."
"Ah, did you kill him?"
"Me? I don't kill people." Meng Baifeng shook his head: "I even hate seeing blood. Tomoko, maybe someone will ask you. Do you know what you want to do?"
"Me?" Tomoko was surprised: "What do you want me to do?"
"Answer honestly." Meng Baifeng said calmly: "How did I know you, what words did I say to you, and even how did I seduce you? Even if they ask you how many times you were in bed, you have to be honest. Answer, don’t hide anything.”
Tomoko's face suddenly turned red: "Meng Sang, you are kidding me again."
"Maybe." Meng Baifeng said nonchalantly: "I want to be an honest person, as honest as me."
An honest person:
Meng Baifeng!
…
"Captain Han, we have entered the public concession."
"Be on full alert and take the four-way road."
"yes."
The convoy quickly entered Star Road...
…
"It's four o'clock."
"Oh." Meng Shaoyuan said lazily, "They have also entered the public concession."
The phone rang in the grocery store.
Xu Zhu picked up the phone: "It's me... Got it."
Then he put down the phone: "Director Meng, they entered Star Road."
"knew."
Meng Shaoyuan picked up the bottled water next to him and took a sip.
This kind of water was introduced from the United States, and its earliest translation was called "tadpole chewing wax".
I don’t know what to say.
Of course, later on, the translated name was changed, and everyone knew it:
Coca Cola!
You know, the Coca-Cola Company spent a huge sum of 350 pounds to collect this Chinese translation.
When it first entered the Chinese market, the Chinese thought it tasted extremely weird, so sales were very low.
Later, the name was changed to "Coca-Cola", and sales began to gradually increase.
Changing your name to change your luck has some elements of Chinese metaphysics.
Meng Shaoyuan didn't expect to see Coca-Cola in this contact point covered by a grocery store.
"Brothers, please each drink a bottle."
Meng Shaoyuan said generously.
"What? That's it?" Xu Zhu looked unhappy: "District Chief Meng, you are getting bigger and bigger as you become more official, but you are also becoming more and more stingy. I have drunk this stuff before, Coca-Cola, it's like a potion Yes, what’s good to drink? If you really want to invite the brothers, after the task is completed, each of you can enjoy two bottles of Yanghe Daqu, that will be enjoyable."
"Idiot hater."
Meng Shaoyuan cursed angrily: "Did Yanghe Daqu pay you for the endorsement?"
"What? Endorsement fees? What is that?"
…
"parking!"
The car stopped suddenly.
Ahead, trumpets blare and firecrackers burst.
Someone is marrying a wife today!
"wrong!"
Han Li suddenly became alarmed: "It's already past four in the afternoon. Are you marrying a wife at this time? If there is a problem, turn around."
"Where to go?"
The road to climb the wax is too far, so that’s not possible.
"White Paul Road!"
"Yes, Paul Bai!"
…
"District Chief Meng, the motorcade just turned around at Sida Road and headed towards Bai Paulo Road."
"oh."
Meng Shaoyuan opened a third bottle of Coca-Cola: "Don't worry, it will be coming to us in a moment. Hey, who can open another bottle for me?"
"How about you settle the bill first?"
The owner of the grocery store and the person in charge of the contact point said with a smile.
"Isn't it reasonable that my dignified acting district chief of the Shanghai Latent Area of the Military Command Bureau would be at your expense?"
"No, District Chief Meng, you also know that I, the contact point, have to file accounts every month. This thing is expensive and I can't afford it... Also, um... I heard that you have been Repudiation..."
Damn it, who made this rumor?
…
"parking!"
The convoy stopped again.
Han Li stared straight ahead.
Wrong, still wrong.
Why are there suddenly so many hawkers on Bai Paul Road?
There are also those few customers who are not buying anything at the stall, but are looking around.
"People appear that shouldn't be there, vehicles appear that shouldn't be there... There must be something wrong when these things come together!"
Han Li firmly remembered what Li Shiqun told him!
"Turn around and go to Nan Sri Road!"
…
"District Chief Meng, look at the money for a few bottles of Coca-Cola, and please don't embarrass me."
"What the hell..."
"Report to District Chief Meng that the convoy made a U-turn at Bai Paul Road."
"Okay, get ready, enter the ambush position!" Meng Shaoyuan immediately put down the Coca-Cola bottle and quickly left the store.
"Hey, hey, you haven't given me the money yet."
The person in charge of the contact point looked at District Chief Meng's back and sighed: "What Assistant Wu said is absolutely correct. Don't believe Master Meng even if you believe in gods or ghosts."
…
"Everyone is in place."
"Get ready, follow my orders, block both ends, and prepare to take action!"
Meng Shaoyuan picked up the telescope.
In the distance, a convoy of four cars sped by.
He slowly raised his hand.
"Prepare!"
This is the afternoon of November 22, 1938, on Nan Sri Road in the Shanghai Public Concession.
4:30 p.m.
Several violent explosions suddenly shook the entire Shanghai Public Settlement!
