On Friday, December 27, 1940, in the secret room of Jiren Library, Bian Rinan was confirming the action plan for the 31st with Li Jie.
"Wasp, are you sure Yamahara Yuhei will pass by North Sichuan Road on the night of the 31st?"
Li Jie nodded: "Although Yuhei Yamahara has always been single, he has a mistress outside. New Year is one of the most important festivals for Japanese people. On New Year's Eve, he will definitely go back to his mistress' place. North Sichuan Road is to Qianai The only way here.”
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Japan sent envoys to China to learn all the political systems, etiquette, customs, architectural styles, etc. of Chinese civilization. A trend of learning Chinese culture arose in the country. As one of the symbols of Chinese civilization, the Spring Festival is naturally It was also introduced to Japan and became one of the most important festivals in Japan.
However, with the vigorous development of the Meiji Restoration Movement, the Spring Festival also underwent major changes in Japan. After the "Black Ship Arrival" incident in the mid-19th century, the era of Japan's isolation came to an end. Japan launched the Restoration Movement and carried out comprehensive Westernization. One of them is the traditional calendar. Japan has fully used the Gregorian calendar since the Restoration, abolished the traditional lunar calendar, and instead used December 31 of the Gregorian calendar as the 'New Year's Eve' of the New Year.
Although the date has changed, New Year is still one of the most important festivals for Japanese people. Li Jie also accidentally learned that Yamahara Yuhei had a mistress.
Before the Anti-Japanese War, Japanese overseas Chinese in Shanghai concentrated in the Hongkou area of Hebei Province, Suzhou (Northern Public Concession). After the Japanese occupied Shanghai, the area north of the Suzhou River became the sphere of influence controlled by the Japanese army and was called the "Shanghai Japanese Concession".
Half a month ago, Li Jie accidentally noticed Yamahara Yuhei on his way to visit the famous Japanese scholar Koyama Ryuji.
Li Jie was very surprised that Yamahara Yuhei appeared alone in the Japanese Concession, so he simply followed him secretly until he reached Qianairi.
The residents of Senairi obviously knew Yamahara Yuhei. Li Jie saw people saying hello to Yamahara Yuhei from a distance. There were many Japanese communities like this in the Japanese Concession, and they were very wary of outsiders. In view of this, Li Jie did not dare to follow up in depth. .
Li Jie then applied to the organization for a comrade to monitor Senairi. In just half a month, Yamahara Yuhei appeared twice, during which he found that Yamahara Yuhei was very intimate with a Japanese woman.
Although the time of Yamahara Yuhei's appearance is irregular, it is enough to prove that he will often go to Senairi. On major festivals like New Year's Eve, Yamahara Yuhei will definitely go to Senairi if nothing unexpected happens.
Li Jie saw that Bian Rinan was worried and couldn't help comforting him: "Mr. Bian, Yamahara Yuhei will go to Qianairi if nothing unexpected happens after attending the dinner held by the Japanese Consulate. Don't worry, this joint operation will definitely be foolproof. Even then, If Yamahara Yuhei doesn't show up, we won't lose anything. The worst outcome is just to look for the next opportunity."
Li Jie also reported the information about Yamahara Yuhei to the military commander. After the last incident, the military commander's Shencheng station suffered heavy losses. Most of the personnel of the second military commander's office are lurking within the new government. They will definitely participate in various activities on New Year's Eve. Various banquets, so there are not enough people.
Boss Cheng, the director of the Second Military Unification Division, was both happy and worried when he got this information. He was happy that he could finally return the favor, but he was worried that there were not enough manpower that day and the Japanese Concession was heavily guarded, making it difficult for those Military Unification Office personnel who had just arrived in Shanghai to sneak in. , Boss Cheng had no choice but to apply to the headquarters to join the Red Party to act together. In order to retaliate against the Japanese, the senior military leaders did not care about partisanship at this time, so they agreed to Boss Cheng's application.
Bian Rinan felt relieved after hearing this: "I hope everything goes well!"
Li Jie learned through Muto Shixio that the last arrest was indeed planned by Yamahara Yuhei. Ben Nichinan knew the dangers of this person in his heart. During this period, the Special High School did not do nothing. The Special High School has made frequent moves recently, and the big A large-scale manhunt was launched, and a contact point of the underground party was also affected. Fortunately, no casualties were caused.
In the blink of an eye, December 31st came. In order to celebrate the arrival of the New Year, the Japanese held a large-scale banquet in the Japanese Consulate. The attendees included almost all middle and high-level military officers in Shencheng. Except for some left-behind personnel, most of the officials were present. , some senior officials of Wang's puppet government were also invited to the scene, including officials at the level of Zhou Fohai and Minglou.
Li Jie initially planned to create a disturbance at the banquet, and then take the opportunity to secretly get rid of Yamahara Yuhei, until he accidentally discovered the whereabouts of Yamahara Yuhei that day and changed his mind. After all, there were many people at the banquet, and it was inevitable that no one would see the flaw.
Yamahara Yuhei left just halfway through the banquet. Yamahara Yuhei was usually not sociable, and his departure did not attract the attention of anyone else except within the Special High School.
On the top of the Said Building, Wu Ming rubbed his frozen hands and cursed: "This weather is so damn cold. Do you think the target will pass by here tonight?"
Jiang Dazhi stared closely at the entrance of Qian Airi: "Don't be distracted. If the target person passes by us but misses it because of chatting, how can he be worthy of the brothers who died in battle!"
Wu Ming laughed: "Aren't there still people from the Red Party?"
Jiang Dazhi looked stern and said in a stern tone: "Be more serious! Otherwise, Shangfeng won't be able to spare you!"
Before this mission, Shangfeng issued a death order. If Yamahara Yuhei appeared and they failed, Wu Ming couldn't help but shuddered when he thought of the military commander's family rules. At this time, Jiang Dazhi's voice came to his ears.
"Hurry! Hurry! The target's vehicle has appeared!"
Wu Ming tensed up after hearing this, and hurriedly got down and pointed the scope at the moving vehicle. The internal road of Qianairi was narrow, and Yamahara Yuhei had to get out of the car and walk to get in. The parking place was only ten meters away from the entrance of Qianairi. , it only takes about ten seconds at the walking speed of a normal person, and the opportunity is fleeting.
Yamahara Yuhei drank a lot of wine at the banquet. He was already very drunk, and he was feeling dizzy at the moment. However, when he thought of Kumi Keiko, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. He was a ruthless executioner towards his enemies, and he could only do so in front of Keiko. Will show his gentle side and pick up the New Year's gift from the co-pilot. Yamahara Yuhei is preparing to formally propose to Kumi Keiko on the occasion of the New Year. Just halfway, he suddenly hears four gunshots.
boom! boom! boom! boom!
Yamahara Yuhei felt his eyes darken, and then he fell to the ground suddenly. The residents in Qianairi were immediately in chaos when they heard the gunshots. The patrolling military police in the distance heard the gunshots and whistles.
After the shooting, the two groups of operational team members saw Yamahara Yuhei fall to the ground and had no time to confirm the situation. They immediately got up and evacuated the scene. The Japanese Concession was a key defensive area for the Japanese. If they retreated a little later, they might not be able to leave, even if they were to leave immediately. Evacuation may not necessarily enable them to escape capture. They are already prepared to sacrifice before performing their mission.
