The other people who followed Tang Cheng to the dock did not expect that their captain would lock the target so quickly. After seeing the gesture made by Tang Cheng, the people in the investigation team were slightly stunned, and then they started to retreat according to the previous plan. Towards the periphery of the pier. The worried Shuichi Samoto and the others were secretly glad that the suspicious people on the dock were not coming for them, so after leaving the dock, Shuichi Samoto and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Yamamoto, who had been walking in front, deliberately slowed down after leaving the pier. When Shuichi Samoto and the other two passed him, he lowered his voice and whispered. "Sasaki, you take the Major and leave first, I will follow you." The three of them just whispered to each other and immediately separated. If they hadn't been staring at Shuichi Samoto, Tang Cheng would not have thought of the one with the gun hidden on his body. The guy and the target are together.
"What? Didn't you say there was only one person? How did it become three?" Bai Zhanshan, who stayed in Yijiangmen, quickly got the news. The increase in the number of people on the other side undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the task, but now it was too late to adjust the plan. . "Okay, just follow your captain's instructions. Don't let them escape!" After Bai Zhanshan thought for a moment, he finally made the decision to stick to the original plan.
After leaving the pier, Shuichi Samoto and the others took a rickshaw to leave. The three of them were together at any time, but they were divided into two formations, one in front of the other. The cunning Yamamoto fell far behind Shuichi Samoto and the others. "Ignore him, stick to the original plan and stick to the target!" In the fast-moving car, Tang Cheng also made the decision to stick to the original plan. The investigation team's manpower was deployed at several street intersections near Yijiangmen. The liaison officers on bicycles were galloping back and forth, passing the target's latest movements to the manpower deployed in front.
In order to track the target, Tang Cheng not only used all the manpower of the investigation team this time, but also recruited many rickshaw drivers who had used it before. At this moment, two of the rickshaw drivers Samoto Shuichi and three people were riding in were Tang Cheng. The city specially found the dock. The Japanese intelligence officers who could be sent to Nanjing were by no means ordinary. From the first time he dealt with Japanese agents, Tang Cheng had already understood this truth. Therefore, he did not expect that just these two rickshaw pullers could accurately predict the situation. Lock the target's foothold.
The actual situation was as Tang Cheng expected. Once Shuichi Samoto entered the Yijiang Gate, he had a vague feeling that someone was spying on him. After crossing two intersections in a row, Shuichi Samoto, who was alert, suddenly stopped the rickshaw. The three of them immediately crossed the street and found three more rickshaws. "You kid can do that! How did you know they would suddenly change cars?" Bai Zhanshan, who was sitting in the back seat of the car with Tang Cheng, saw this and finally couldn't help but ask Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng did not hide anything about Bai Zhanshan's question, but his answer did not satisfy Bai Zhanshan. "Uncle Bai, it's not as evil as you think. I just put myself in the perspective of the target and deduced it several times in my mind before making the plan. The Shanghai Station said that the target was an espionage expert from the Special Higher Education Course. Such a person Naturally, people are not very simple, but the more complicated a person is, the more cautious they will be. If I were him, I would be even more careful. After all, this is Nanjing, our capital."
The two people in Tangcheng were talking, and the car kept driving along the signal left by the investigation team. After turning several intersections, the car finally stopped. "Captain, the target entered the hotel in front. Two brothers from the third group followed, but no news has come out yet." Zhou Guangzhi's face appeared outside the car window. After he briefly explained the situation, Tang Cheng first looked through the car window. I looked at the hotel for a while, then opened the car door and walked out.
"Lao Zhou, take a few people to the back immediately. I'm afraid this hotel may have a back door." Tang Cheng's words made Zhou Guangzhi's face change slightly, and he immediately called on a few of his men to get into the alley next to him. Watching Zhou Guangzhi and others disappear into the alley, Tang Cheng turned to Bai Zhanshan in the car and said, "Uncle Bai, I see something is wrong with the situation. If you insist on fishing for the big fish for a long time, then what will happen next?" You have to obey my command for everything."
Tang Cheng's words sounded a bit presumptuous. After all, Bai Zhanshan's action team was the real leader, and the special investigation team was just a sideshow. However, Bai Zhanshan in the car didn't hesitate at all and nodded in agreement. After all, Tang Cheng's previous actions had already convinced Bai Zhanshan. Seeing that Bai Zhanshan agreed to his request, Tang Cheng smiled and said, "That's good, Uncle Bai, you wait here for a while, I'll go over and see how the situation is."
The location where the car stopped was still some distance away from the hotel. Even if someone stood at the street-facing window of the hotel room and looked out, they would not be able to see the scene where Tang Cheng was talking to Bai Zhanshan just now. Tang Cheng first moved forward along the street, and then Shi Shiran walked directly across the street and appeared at the door of the hotel. With just a glance from the corner of his eye, Tang Cheng appeared at the door of the hotel and found several of his men. Judging from their respective positions, they had already sealed off the front of the hotel.
There are five steps at the door of the hotel. Tang Cheng has already stepped onto the third step. With two more steps, he can step into the hotel. But at this moment, a cursing man walked out of the hotel. , and happened to bump into Tangcheng. "What are you doing? Don't you have eyes when you walk?" Before Tang Cheng could say anything, the other party started yelling and scolding him, and even pushed Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng, who was caught off guard, was stunned for a moment, and then after reacting, he and the other party struggled on the steps.
The two of them in Tang Cheng were still struggling. Two more people walked out from behind the man, that is, from the hotel. Facing the main entrance of the hotel, Tang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes. He had already identified one of them as the person in the photo. . Shuichi Samoto, who was originally wearing a long gown, had changed into a dark suit. Following him was Yamamoto, and another follower named Sasaki was carrying a suitcase a few meters behind the two of them.
Seeing the target appear at the door of the hotel, Tang Cheng realized why his team member suddenly reached out and pushed him. Tang Cheng suddenly tilted his body, and the team member grabbed Tang Cheng's arm and swung it outward. Tang Cheng, who secretly applauded, spun around, took advantage of the situation and turned an extra half circle while mixing garlic at his feet, and happened to collide with Shuichi Samoto. together. "Hey, what are you doing?" Yamamoto, who was following Shuichi Samoto, was too late to stop him. He could only watch Tang Cheng, whose body was spinning, collide with Shuichi Samoto.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!" Tang Cheng, who seemed to be equally surprised, barely stabilized his body, stretched out his hand to support Shuichi Samoto's arm, and said vaguely to Shuichi Samoto. This actually made Samoto Shuichi a little uncomfortable, so he had to tell Tang Cheng that it was okay, while reaching out to rub the painful ribs that Tang Cheng had hit. "Do you want to go to the hospital?" Tang Cheng did not let go immediately, but asked Samoto Shuichi with concern, but was immediately pushed away by the cold-faced Yamamoto.
After just a brief moment of hunger, Tang Cheng was 100% sure of the other party's identity, and taking advantage of the previous inquiry, Tang Cheng also kept the looks of Yamamoto and Sasaki firmly in his mind. Tang Cheng looked tender and looked like he was a child from a wealthy family. Neither Shuichi Samoto nor Yamamoto were too wary of Tang Cheng. As for the team member who pretended to have a scuffle with Tang Cheng just now, his efforts had already disappeared, and he was completely out of the attention of Samoto Shuichi and the others.
Being bumped into by someone in vain at the door of the hotel, Samoto Shuichi could only secretly complain that it was bad luck. Fortunately, everything went smoothly after that. Half an hour later, Samoto Shuichi and the others arrived at the first meeting place. "Major, there's nothing going on behind, it's safe." Shuichi Samoto in the tavern had just picked up his wine glass when Sasaki, who had been following at the back, walked in carrying a suitcase. Shuichi Samoto nodded slightly when he heard this. Yamamoto, who was sitting opposite him, saw this and immediately took out four chopsticks from the chopstick cage. He arranged a tic-tac-toe on the table according to two vertical and two horizontal lines, and then placed an empty wine glass upside down into the space in the middle of the tic-tac-toe.
What Yamamoto was doing at the moment was the code for the connection. While Yamamoto was playing with his chopsticks and wine glasses, Shuichi Samoto was secretly paying attention to the reactions of other people in the tavern, because he knew that the person he was connecting with should be in the tavern. The tavern is not large. When Shuichi Samoto looked around, only three of the six tables in the tavern had customers. The first thing Samoto Shuichi saw was the table sitting on his left. There were two guests, one old and one young. The old one looked to be in his fifties, and the young one was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Judging from the appearance of the two of them, Based on their appearance and eating behavior, Samoto Shuichi first eliminated the old and the young.
Facing the table facing Shuichi Samoto was a single guest, but that guest had his back to Shuichi Samoto. Just looking at the other person's back and figure, Shuichi Samoto judged that the other person's age should be less than middle-aged. At the last table with guests, there were three people, two men and one woman. Shuichi Samoto quickly eliminated these three people. He judged that these three people should be a family of three, because the older man and woman looked very married. Mutually.
After looking around at the other tables of guests in the tavern, Shuichi Samoto had to turn his attention to the tavern's shopkeeper and the waiter. It was just that the tavern's shopkeeper was a woman, and the waiter was a lame boy with a pockmarked face. Could it be that the person to contact him hasn't come yet? The few side dishes he ordered have been brought to the table, but the waiter has not yet appeared. Samoto Shuichi felt anxious in his heart. He was worried that something had happened that he didn't know about.
