Come to this cafe called Qiangwei every three days. This is what Haruko Ikeda specially told her by her teacher Aoki Shouji before she entered Nanjing under the pseudonym Zhang Qing. There is nothing wrong with the Rose Cafe itself. Zhang Qing comes here every three days, just so that Aoki Shangji can make sure that Zhang Qing has not been exposed. As usual, Ikeda Haruko chose to appear in the Rose Cafe between 2:30 and 3:00. She knew that her teacher Aoki Shouji would be watching and observing her silently outside the cafe during this time.
Sneaking into Nanjing City, she was just an ordinary worker in a movie theater in the city. It was not that Haruko Ikeda had never questioned the arrangements of her superiors, but the obedience that had been deeply ingrained in her bones made Haruko Ikeda silently feel that she was useless. I have persisted until now. The strong smell of coffee could not dispel the loss in Haruko Ikeda's body. This loss came from the hesitation and uneasiness of losing contact with the teacher.
The pavilion in the park is a contact point used by Haruko Ikeda to receive instructions from the teacher. Counting this morning, she has left the pavilion empty-handed twice in a row. Is there something wrong with the teacher? Or maybe I can’t go to that pavilion because of something unexpected? Ikeda Haruko was full of questions at this moment, and the originally fragrant coffee in the cup felt increasingly bitter. Haruko Ikeda was slowly drinking coffee in the Rose Cafe, but Tang Cheng had already entered a shoe store across the street. While dealing with the shop owner's enthusiastic recommendation, he was paying attention to Haruko Ikeda in the cafe opposite.
Time passed little by little, and Tangcheng had tried on several pairs of leather shoes in succession. However, Haruko Ikeda in the cafe opposite, not only did not appear impatient at all, but looked more and more leisurely. There must be something wrong here? Tang Cheng, who had doubts in his mind, first ruled out the possibility that the other party had discovered him. Since the other party didn't notice him, didn't show any concern for time, and didn't show the slightest impatience on his expression, it meant that the other party didn't come here to connect with anyone.
When Tang Cheng was thinking secretly, a familiar face suddenly flashed past the critical display window of the shoe store, "I want this pair of black ones. I'll give you the money. I'll leave the shoes with you first. I'll pick them up later." Tang Cheng hurriedly took out a roll of banknotes and threw it into the shopkeeper's hand. He just told him to leave the shoe shop and chased south along the street. Although the face just disappeared for a fleeting moment, Tang Cheng immediately realized that that face had appeared in Zuohira Weiichiro's memory.
After chasing Tang Cheng out of the shoe store, the first thing he saw was a middle-aged man wearing a cotton robe, turning his head to look across the street. Tang Cheng also subconsciously looked across the street with the corner of his eye, and happened to see the street window of Rose Cafe, and the woman who came out of the cinema was sitting under the window. Everything came to light, and Tang Cheng became ecstatic. He finally understood why the woman came straight to this place after leaving the cinema. This was how they communicated.
Tang Cheng, who already knew that the woman worked in a movie theater, immediately used his system skills to target the middle-aged man in front of him. He planned to change the tracking target. Maybe this middle-aged man was a big fish! It must be said that Tang Cheng has always been very lucky. The middle-aged man he discovered by chance was none other than Ikeda Haruko's teacher, Aoki Shouji, codenamed Spider. Aoki Shouji, like Ikeda Haruko, both came to Nanjing three months ago. Unlike Ikeda Haruko's mission, Aoki Shouji also shoulders a secret mission.
Since half a year ago, the Nanjing Headquarters of the Intelligence Department has become uncharacteristically powerful. Several intelligence teams stationed in Nanjing between THT and the military have lost contact one after another. In the end, they were all confirmed to have been cracked down by the Nanjing Headquarters of the Intelligence Department. The Shanghai headquarters of Utech has also sent people to Nanjing to investigate the matter one after another, but as a result, they have lost contact with each other. This has attracted the attention of the Shanghai headquarters of Utech. As a counterattack, the Shanghai Headquarters of T&T High Tech made two preparations. On the one hand, it sent Aoki Shangji to Nanjing to continue the investigation; on the other hand, it used the traitors at the Shanghai Station of the Intelligence Department to target Zhang Jianghe, the special commissioner of the Intelligence Department who went south to Shanghai. assassination.
It's just that when Aoki Shangji came to Nanjing, it was the time when Tang Cheng went south to Shanghai, and Tang Cheng's special investigation team was also dispersed by the Intelligence Department and transferred to several sub-stations. Three months passed quickly, but Aoki Shouji was still unable to obtain valuable relevant information. At this time, another secret mission was handed over to him. In the past few days, he had been fascinated by this new secret. The task was a bit overwhelming.
The early arrest of the hamster was learned by Aoki Shouji through internal lines, so he immediately broke off the contact with the student Haruko Ikeda through the park pavilion. At this moment, he saw Ikeda Haruko appearing in the cafe as before, Aoki Shouji Only then did I finally feel relieved. After confirming that Ikeda Haruko was fine, Aoki Shouji immediately left the street. Although he was very careful, he still did not expect that he had been targeted.
Tang Cheng's ability to track people can only be regarded as half a bucket of water, but he has system skills to help him. As long as the straight-line distance between him and Aoki Shouji does not exceed 50 meters, even if there is a building between them, Aoki Shouji can't. Escape the lock of system skills. To put it simply, with the help of system skills, if Tangcheng wants to track people, it is really not too easy. Tang Cheng, who had the system in hand, was just like the pedestrians on the street, only paying attention to the excitement in the street and not even interested in taking a look at the target.
He was in such a state that even if the best agent of Ttech came here, he would never think that this young man walking across the street and never looking this way was following him. Aoki Shouji, who can speak fluent Chinese, has no consciousness of being a spy. If it weren't for the memory of Saheira Eiichiro, Tang Cheng would never have imagined that this middle-aged man who could bargain skillfully with street vendors would be a Japanese spy. .
An hour later, Tang Cheng finally saw the target enter a middle school. After school, Tang Cheng followed the target to a residential area. After confirming the target's place of work and residence, Tang Cheng called a rickshaw and rushed to Xinanli Street. His car was still parked outside the park. "I thought you wouldn't even come for dinner!" A tired-looking Tang Cheng returned to the Zhang family's old house. What awaited him was not a greeting but a sermon from Zhang Jianghe.
"It's broken! I really can't eat dinner at home." Tang Cheng, whose buttocks were still hot, wanted to explain his today's itinerary to Zhang Jianghe, but suddenly remembered that he had accepted Joseph's invitation, and hurriedly told Zhang Jianghe Just explain, change your clothes and leave immediately. Tang Cheng drove to Joseph's leather goods store, only to find that Joseph's leather goods store was closed. He went around to the back and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one paid attention.
"Damn Joseph, did you forget that I came to drink?" Tang Cheng looked over the wall and looked into the yard for a while to make sure no one was there, then he gave up and walked back to the front. After going back and forth like this, Tang Cheng didn't even have dinner. Thinking of Zhang Jiang and that serious face, Tang Cheng couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and decided to just find a place outside to deal with a few mouths before going home.
Tangcheng drove back a short distance and saw a noodle shop on the street. When he saw the sign at the door of the noodle shop with the name of dumplings, he suddenly became interested. The noodle shop looked small but very clean. When Tang Cheng walked into this noodle shop, there were only two customers in the noodle shop, a man and a woman. When a customer came in, the noodle shop boy immediately came up to greet Tang Cheng with a face full of hospitality. After asking about the fillings of the dumplings, Tang Cheng ordered a pound of pork-filled dumplings and two plates of braised cold dishes.
While waiting for the dumplings, Tang Cheng habitually paid attention to the two diners in the noodle shop. The man and woman obviously came together. When Tang Cheng entered, he heard them talking in low voices, but after Tang Cheng sat down, the two The person ended the conversation. Tang Cheng was just paying attention to the situation in the noodle shop out of habit, but he didn't actually pay much attention to the man and woman. But when he suddenly noticed that the noodle shop boy was secretly winking at the man and woman, he realized that the man and woman and the noodle shop boy should also We know each other.
Tang Cheng, who discovered the strangeness, immediately kept his composure, thinking in his mind about who this man and woman would be, while slowly peeling garlic cloves. Tang Cheng's order was served very quickly. The dumplings and braised cold dishes were quickly served by the waiter. Tang Cheng saw that the waiter's figure was not that of a practiced one, so he focused all his attention on the couple. On men and women. A mouthful of dumplings, a mouthful of garlic, a pound of dumplings and two plates of cold dishes soon went into Tang Cheng's stomach. However, Tang Cheng did not pay the bill immediately, but ordered another bowl of noodle soup and drank it slowly in small sips. .
When the bowl of noodle soup was almost finished, Tang Cheng suddenly realized that he seemed to have overlooked something. There seemed to be only one waiter in this noodle shop, but he did not see the owner of the noodle shop. Thinking of this, Tang Cheng couldn't help but feel alarmed. Although he hadn't seen anything wrong yet, Tang Cheng didn't want to be involved in trouble for no reason. "Man, check out! Your braised beef tastes good. Please pack two kilograms for me to take away." Tang Cheng immediately took out the banknotes to pay the bill, not forgetting to pack and take away some braised beef to make himself look more like a diner.
When they heard Tang Cheng calling for the check, the boy and the man and woman who were originally worried secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They wished that this person who suddenly appeared could leave quickly. Tang Cheng walked out of the noodle shop carrying the wrapped braised beef, and accidentally bumped into the two people who were coming towards him. The other person didn't pay attention, but Tang Cheng's expression had faintly changed. The hard object on that man's waist should be a pistol! With just an accidental touch, Tang Cheng had already concluded that one of the two people just now was carrying a pistol. When he thought about the strangeness in the restaurant behind him, Tang Cheng felt that things were getting more and more interesting.
