After telling these young men, Tang Cheng turned around and left. He had earned 300 yuan in one morning, but there was not much joy on Tang Cheng's face. Walking aimlessly on the street, Tang Cheng unknowingly walked back to Chengxian Street. The dozen or so policemen who were originally here had already withdrawn, leaving only a few men in Chinese tunic suits still busy in the drug store. . Seeing that they were all familiar faces, Tang Cheng casually strolled to the door of the drug store. When he looked inside, he saw that these men in Chinese tunic suits were cleaning up the scene in the drug store.
"Brother Tiger, what are you doing? Why are there only a few of you?" Tang Cheng has always adhered to the principle of not hitting anyone with a smiling face. Before anyone entered the drug store, he would take it out of his pocket with a smile on his face. Bring a pack of cigarettes. The Military Intelligence Department is a privileged unit, but the salary of the lower-level members is not very high. They can smoke cigarettes for free, and no one will say anything to the familiar face in Tang Cheng.
Reaching out to take the cigarettes handed over by Tang Cheng, the strong man at the head said with a grimace, "Forget it, when the shooting started in front, the few of us were ordered to ambush in the drug store. No one thought at the time that the man who was watching The humble drugstore clerk is also a Japanese spy, otherwise he wouldn’t have taken the opportunity to send out a signal and hurt two of our brothers.” After the other party said this, Tang Cheng finally understood that these guys were really messing up the job. That's why I was left here to clean up the mess.
"Damn, there are just a few rooms on two floors. I checked inside and out several times. I couldn't find anything important. I didn't even find anything important. I even made them look disgraced." He was called by Tangcheng. Brother Tiger's Wang Hu took a long drag on his cigarette in a depressed mood. "Now we have something good to see when we go back. Killing three Japanese spies is different from capturing three alive. Our section chief is not easy to talk to."
"Brother Tiger, don't blame me for not reminding you. This kind of job of cleaning up the mess may not sound good, but it's not as bad as what you just said." Tang Cheng took over the conversation with a smile, and waited for Wang Hu to turn around and look. When he turned to himself, Tang Cheng shut his mouth and did not continue. This drug store is a joint point for the Japanese spy organization. Police registration information shows that this drug store opened here three years ago. A joint that had been hidden for three years, Tang Cheng believed that it could never be just a safe house used to hide spies, so he stubbornly judged that there should be value in digging deeper here.
"Xiao Wu, you are the nephew of our captain, and you can be considered one of our own. My brother is getting angry here. If you have any good ideas, please tell me quickly and stop playing tricks on my brother!" Wang Hu looked at Tang. Cheng didn't look like he was making fun of himself. While he was wavering in his heart, he held on to the temporary idea of and bowed to Tang Cheng repeatedly.
"Brother Tiger, I heard that you know a few black market brokers?" Tang Cheng lowered his voice cheerfully and whispered into Wang Hu's ear. "I have some spare money on hand, and I want to exchange it into US dollars or British pounds. Brother Tiger, please show me the way!" Tang Cheng's words immediately made Wang Hu happy. He thought to himself that this was nothing, he was just looking for a black market. The broker exchanges some US dollars and pounds, and any of his men can help Tangcheng get it done.
"Brother, I didn't say anything. I'll leave this matter to my brother. As long as you help him overcome this difficulty, and good things happen in the future, I will never leave you behind." Wang Hu, who was overjoyed, patted his face again and again. Chest, mouth is even more happy to agree.
After waiting for Wang Hu to give a positive answer and guarantee, Tang Cheng then smiled and said, "Brother Tiger, do you know what your Captain Zhang and his people are doing?" Tang Cheng's question made Wang Hu stunned. At the same place, with only the rank of sergeant, he is just an ordinary member of the Third Action Team. If it were not for his seniority, he would not be responsible here. As for the rest, he knows nothing about it. .
"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore." Tang Cheng knew what it meant to go too far, so he immediately lowered his voice and whispered into Wang Hu's ear. "When you were checking passers-by here earlier, your Captain Zhang discovered a suspicious person. Now, he should have led people to capture the target. Maybe he is doing the same thing as your brother, checking the suspected target. I don’t know where to live, either!”
Tang Cheng's whisper made Wang Hu regain his health instantly. Wang Hu, who knew his captain's temperament, couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart. Although the operation at the drug store was a complete failure, if the captain captured a new target, it would be considered a follow-up. There is an explanation. As long as they have a living mouth in hand, the mistakes made by their action team at the drug store are nothing at all. Even the director will not care about these small things. "Brother, thank you! When brother is free, I will treat you to a drink." Wang Hu, who was overjoyed, patted Tang Cheng on the shoulder from behind, but the latter just shrugged.
Sure enough, after a short while, a man in Chinese tunic suit who had followed the large group to Beihua Street appeared outside the drug store. "Brother Hu, the captain said, just leave two people here to watch. The rest will all go to Beihua Street. They need manpower support there." The order conveyed by the visitor surprised Tang Cheng, and he left Beihua Street. When we were on the street, the Japanese had already handed over the whole thing to Captain Zhang, and Captain Zhang had brought six or seven people there with him. Why did he need to send people over to help him now?
But doubts remain doubts, these are matters of the Military Intelligence Office, and Tang Cheng does not want to be too curious and end up getting himself into trouble. Wang Hu left in a hurry, and Tang Cheng also said goodbye knowingly. Walking eastward along the street, Tang Cheng soon returned to a small yard not far from the police station. The yard was not large. When Tang Cheng walked into the yard, a middle-aged man with gray hair on his temples was sweeping the floor with a broom.
"Uncle Sun, didn't I tell you to have a good rest? Why did the broom fall to the ground again?" Tang Cheng stepped forward, snatched the broom from Uncle Sun's hand, and then reached out to support Sun, who was stumbling a little. Bo sat down at the stone table next to him. "Uncle Sun, I invited you here to teach these boys how to read and write. When I need their help with something, if you can't sit still, just drink tea and write. Don't always do this or that. , these chores will naturally be done by them.”
Sun Miao just smiled and said nothing in the face of Tang Cheng's nagging. When Tang Cheng finally sat down, Sun Miao spoke slowly. "It's not like I can't move. The children have gone out and I'm bored being alone. I might as well get a broom to sweep the floor or something. This way I can exercise, right?" Sun Miao's explanation made Tang Cheng unable to help but I rolled my eyes and thought to myself, you are a genuine university professor. How dare we, my friends, use a university professor to sweep the floor for me?
Tang Cheng and Sun Miao were obviously very familiar with each other. The two sat at the stone table and chatted for a while. Only then did Tang Cheng straighten his face and tell Sun Miao everything about today in detail. After hearing this, Sun Miao pondered for a while, and then said to Tang Cheng, "You did a good job today. You are a patrol officer and helped them arrest Japanese spies. That is what you should do. But when you get along with them, you must You have to be careful, their identities are too sensitive, and it is not a good thing to yearn for them too deeply.”
Tang Cheng naturally knew what Sun Miao meant, and immediately nodded and said, "Uncle Sun, I think so too, so I only talk to them about money and nothing else. Even if they are interested in me, just With my family's situation, I will have a reason to refuse when the time comes. No matter how awesome their Military Intelligence Office is, they can't let me abandon my family to join them. How dare they use someone who doesn't even care about their family?"
Tang Cheng's almost rogue-like answer left Sun Miao speechless, but after thinking about it carefully, Tang Cheng's method seemed to be the most correct. After chatting with Sun Miao for a while, Tang Cheng got up and went to the backyard. Some of the equipment Tang Cheng used to practice martial arts were placed in the backyard. This courtyard belonged to Sun Miao. Neither the police station nor the Military Intelligence Office knew about the relationship between Tang Cheng and Sun Miao, and they would never have imagined that a university professor would actually accept a small patrol policeman as a closed disciple.
Tang Cheng took off his shirt and practiced Wing Chun for a while in front of the wooden dummy. Then he sat cross-legged and meditated on the cushion in the corridor while thinking about everything that happened today. Meditation is a compulsory course for Tang Cheng every day. No matter how tired or busy he is, Tang Cheng will take some time to meditate every day, sometimes for one hour, sometimes for two hours. In short, he has never stopped in the two months after his father passed away. Pass.
Meditation is actually a very effective way to exercise, especially after Tang Cheng mixed the Taoist breathing method. After just half an hour of meditation, Tang Cheng felt that his body was full of power. "Uncle Sun, I'm leaving first. When I have time, I'll drink tea and play chess with you." Back in the front yard, the tea made by Sun Xin had already cooled down, and Tang Cheng poured it directly into the teapot. He was angry, and then walked away amidst the laughter and scolding of Sun Boxiu chewing peonies.
Sun Xin's small courtyard was considered a place for Tang Cheng to relax. Although Heizi and the others often came here to study and read with Sun Xin, they didn't know that Tang Cheng also came here often. Everything in the future has nothing to do with Tang Cheng. After working as a patrol officer because of his father's death 2 months ago, Tang Cheng knew that he was no longer the small-time policeman in the future, but a stinky patrolman who had to work hard to earn a living in order to support his family. .
It was getting dark, and most of the pedestrians on the street were in a hurry and eager. They were eager to go home as soon as possible and be with their families. Tang Cheng is also eager to return home immediately. With the money he got today, his family's life should be a little more comfortable. Thinking of this, there was a slight smile on Tang Cheng's face. The familiar street lamp in the distance also gave Tang Cheng the power to fight poverty. Everything in front of him seemed to become warmer.
