In the early morning, Tang Cheng returned to his residence. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jianghe stayed up all the time and waited in the hall, blocking Tang Cheng. "Uncle, what time is it, why aren't you sleeping yet?" Tang Cheng, who was blocked by Zhang Jianghe, was a little flustered at first, but after a few breaths, Tang Cheng calmed down and didn't say a word about himself. Regarding going out, I just complained about Zhang Jianghe, which would affect the recovery of his injury.
"You kid, if you have a tail behind your butt, you are just a little fox! I haven't even asked you what you did when you came back so late, but you kid slapped me on the back first. Why? I can't teach you a lesson if you bully me with only one arm." !" Zhang Jianghe sat up from the sofa and then glared at Tang Cheng. The latter could only laugh and hurriedly opened the two packs of snacks he bought outside and brought them to Zhang Jianghe.
"I couldn't stay any longer, so I slipped out for a walk! Look, this roasted goose is so fragrant. You are injured and can't drink. I happen to have Coke here. Why don't we go upstairs and have a drink? ?" Tang Cheng tempted Zhang Jianghe with the Coke he had won from the system. Coke has appeared in Shanghai a few years ago, and the Coke that Tangcheng draws from the system is also packaged in glass bottles, which is exactly the same as the glass bottle Coke sold in the Shanghai Concession.
Tang Cheng changed the subject. Zhang Jianghe also knew that Tang Cheng must be hiding something from him, but if Tang Cheng didn't tell him, Zhang Jianghe also knew that he couldn't force him to find out the truth. Early the next morning, Tang Cheng went out after breakfast as usual. He got a somewhat useful message from Ogura Shakuya last night. Tang Cheng went out early in the morning to confirm the authenticity of this message. After the izakaya massacre, the Japanese army has strengthened security in Hongkou District. Not only has it increased the number of police officers, but Japanese patrols with live ammunition appear on the streets from time to time.
Chi Zhenghao pushed the bicycle. There was a box tied to the back seat of the bicycle. In the box were some fish and vegetables. But underneath the fish and vegetables, there was a pistol and dozens of bullets hidden. In addition to Japanese expatriates, there are also many Koreans living in Hongkou District. Ji Zhenghao is one of them, but he also has a secret identity as a liaison officer installed by the South Korean government-in-exile in Hongkou District. The Japanese army had not completely controlled Shanghai at this time, and the Korean government-in-exile was located at No. 4, Lane 306, Madang Road. Although North Korea had long been controlled by Japan, there were still many Koreans who were determined to restore their country and were willing to contribute money and efforts to this exiled government.
Chi Zhenghao runs a small restaurant in Hongkou District. Although his identity as a North Korean makes him suffer a lot of unfair treatment here, life here is better than life in North Korea. The South Korean provisional government in exile in China not only deployed an inside line in Hongkou District, but also tried to arm the Koreans in Japan. Chi Zhenghao's task was to use his identity to transport weapons and ammunition from the concession into Hongkou District. Then through his own small restaurant, he would pass the weapons and ammunition to other Koreans hiding in Hongkou District. Those who obtained the weapons and ammunition would use various ways to go to Japan.
After two consecutive years of smuggling, Chi Zhenghao, a middle-aged man originally born as a farmer, also possesses certain counter-reconnaissance methods. At this moment, he was secretly nervous. He had already turned two streets and he still didn't find the person following him behind him. As soon as he entered Hongkou District, Chi Zhenghao found someone following him, but no matter how he looked, he found no trace of the other person.
Could it be that I was too careful? Chi Zhenghao couldn't help but ask himself in his heart, but the feeling in his heart didn't seem to be fake, but why didn't he find anything unusual? With doubts, Chi Zhenghao pushed his bicycle into an alley on the street. The back door of his small restaurant was in this alley. Time passed little by little. According to the agreement, the person who came to receive the weapon should show up during lunch time. However, it was already past lunch time and the other party had not shown up yet. Chi Zhenghao felt something bad in his heart.
As soon as the bell rang, the door of the restaurant was pushed open, "Welcome!" Chi Zhenghao, who was a little worried, had not seen the person clearly, so he stood up and bowed like a reflex. It was only after he stood up straight that he realized The person who entered the restaurant was a strange young man, not the contact person he had been waiting for. Most of the people who come in and out of Chi Zhenghao's restaurant are Koreans living in Hongkou District. After all, there are authentic Korean kimchi and rice wine. However, Chi Zhenghao is 100% sure that this strange young man in front of him is not a Korean.
Tang Cheng, who was still dressed like a kid from a rich family, ignored Chi Zhenghao's reaction and just casually ordered a kimchi pot and a pot of rice wine. After that, like other diners, he just sipped the rice wine and waited for the food to be served. Chi Zhenghao couldn't tell Tang Cheng's identity, but Tang Cheng was observing Chi Zhenghao out of the corner of his eye. The information he got from Ogura Shakuya's memory was that there was only the presence of this restaurant and this person, but Tang Cheng was still there. I don’t know the details of Chi Zhenghao.
Looking at the layout and decoration of this restaurant, Tang Cheng guessed that Chi Zhenghao was North Korean. Tang Cheng did not rule out that the Special High School would arrange spies in Hongkou District, but he secretly observed Chi Zhenghao and found that this person seemed to be related to the Special High School. Not relevant. Chi Zhenghao is naturally not a person from the Special Higher Education Course, but Chi Zhenghao has already been on the blacklist of the Special Higher Education Course. Just when the steaming kimchi pot was brought to the Tangcheng table, outside the small restaurant, there were also Finally a few new faces appeared.
"Captain Noda, this is it. The restaurant over there is the place where we agreed to meet." A man with a knife-like face and long arms and legs was speaking in a low voice to the man in a suit next to him. When the man in suit heard this, he just frowned and looked through the window at the small restaurant not far ahead. After a while, the man in suit nodded.
"Li Sang, this is an opportunity for you. As long as you prove your loyalty to the Empire of Japan, the Special High School will definitely not be stingy with rewards for your friends!" Captain Noda's words made the knife-faced man overjoyed, and he was worried about money and power in his heart. The longing for him had long forgotten the oath he had sworn with his companions. At this moment, he was already deeply immersed in the reverie of a better life. As for the life and death of his former companions, he was no longer thinking about it.
Li Donghai is the name of this sharp-faced man. He and Chi Zhenghao were both people who fled North Korea and came to Shanghai to support the government-in-exile. It's just that he was more unlucky than Chi Zhenghao. Because of the murder at the izakaya, he was captured by the military police in Hongkou District. After that, he was tortured and interrogated by the Special High School. Li Donghai also wanted to die and serve the country, but he failed to persist. He finally confessed everything to the Special High School and became the leader who was successfully instigated by the Special High School to rebel.
According to the agreement, Li Donghai will meet with Chi Zhenghao here and receive a pistol and 30 rounds of ammunition, and then pass the pistol and bullets to other people waiting to go to Japan. Li Donghai plays the role of a traffic officer, but as a traffic officer, he takes orders from Ji Zhenghao. Without Chi Zhenghao, Li Donghai would not know who to hand over the pistol and bullets to.
Like Chi Zhenghao who was anxious, Tang Cheng, who was sipping rice wine, also felt that something was not right. Secretly opening the triple eyepiece, he began to secretly observe outside through the street-facing window of the small restaurant. When Li Donghai appeared from the corner in front, Tang Cheng had already noticed him. At the same time, Tang Cheng also observed that there were several people who were obviously not right appearing not far behind the man with a sharp face.
Is this a trap? Tang Cheng secretly grasped the chopsticks in his hands, but in the next second, Tang Cheng relaxed again. No one knows about the fact that he can draw a lottery systematically, except himself, and it is even less likely that the Japanese will know about it. Since the Japanese didn't know, it was even more impossible to set a trap for themselves in advance. Maybe these people's target was not themselves. Thinking of this, Tang Cheng secretly turned to look at Chi Zhenghao, who looked anxious.
The corner where Li Donghai appeared was not very far from Chi Zhenghao's small restaurant. When Tang Cheng was thinking secretly, Li Donghai had already walked to the door of the small restaurant. The bell hanging on the door nail of the restaurant rang again. Li Donghai pushed the door open and walked into the restaurant. Chi Zhenghao looked up in response, just in time to see Li Donghai take off his hat and put it back on his head after entering the door. Chi Zhenghao couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, because Li Donghai took off his hat and put it back on again when he came in, which was the agreed secret code for the connection.
Tang Cheng, who was sitting in the corner of the restaurant, watched with cold eyes. Li Donghai's actions just now were also seen by Tang Cheng. Although he was confused, Tang Cheng knew from the restaurant owner's reaction that there must be some kind of connection between the two people. Tang Cheng secretly observed that Li Donghai also saw Tang Cheng sitting in the corner, but Li Donghai did not become suspicious of Tang Cheng. After all, Tang Cheng looked at the young man and looked like he was not experienced in the world.
After confirming that Li Donghai was the one he wanted to wait for, Chi Zhenghao immediately gave Li Donghai a meal and quietly placed a handbag at Li Donghai's feet. Li Donghai lifted the handbag at his feet. The weight of the bag made Li Donghai smile strangely. He knew that the handbag contained something that Captain Noda was interested in. Tang Cheng had been secretly paying attention to Li Donghai, and the weird smile Li Donghai showed at this moment did not escape Tang Cheng's eyes.
Seeing the weird smile on the face of the man with a sharp face, and thinking of the suspicious people outside, Tang Cheng couldn't help but glance at the restaurant owner, and wondered if this was considered being sold and paying for the people. !While Tang Cheng was thinking secretly, the door of the restaurant was pushed open forcefully, and the people Tang Cheng had seen through the street window suddenly rushed in from the door. "Captain Noda, that's him, the stuff is here!" Upon seeing this, Li Donghai immediately pointed at Chi Zhenghao and shouted, still holding the handbag in his hand.
