Suddenly, he heard someone in the room below him talking about his mysterious identity. At this moment, the only people Tang Cheng could think of besides bandits were the Japanese. Just the next second, Tang Cheng's question was answered, "Brother Yao, there are senior officials sent from Nanjing to Chongqing this time. The person I told you must be caught, otherwise it will not only be me." , even you may be implicated." Sun Xiaochuan's voice sounded again, and this time, Yao Mazi's face became even more ugly.
As if he noticed that Yao Mazi's expression turned extremely ugly, Sun Xiaochuan immediately slowed down his speech, "Brother Yao, I know I did something wrong, but there is nothing I can do! The people sent from Nanjing are watching The police are very tight. If I can't help them catch that person, I will probably be transferred back to Nanjing. Although Nanjing is prosperous, a small role like me has no chance of getting ahead. I might as well stay in Chongqing to give myself more opportunities. The good thing is that I will have the capital to settle down and live in the future."
Sun Xiaochuan's words made Yao Mazi's expression gradually soften. In the past few years, Sun Xiaochuan had often pulled him into the tobacco business. Relying on Sun Xiaochuan's relationship, Yao Mazi had often made money from the tobacco business. If Sun Xiaochuan left Chongqing, it would be difficult for him to continue the lucrative tobacco business on his own. Yao Mazi, who also longed for wealth, did not dare to continue thinking about it because he felt physical pain.
"Brother Sun, tell me honestly, what department did you join?" Yao Mazi was silent for a moment, and then finally spoke. However, Tang Cheng on the roof did not hear the rest of the conversation clearly, because Sun Xiaochuan's The answer was whispered into Yao Mazi's ear. Tang Cheng didn't hear the rest of the conversation clearly, but he already had a vague inference in his mind that Brother Sun was probably from Zhongtong, and the person being hunted by Yao Mazi's men might be an underground party member in Chongqing.
People from Zhongtong unexpectedly appeared here. Tang Cheng never expected it in advance. What made him even more unexpected was that Zhongtong actually needed the help of the local Paoge forces to arrest people in Chongqing. Government departments asking for help from gangsters, this is probably the funniest joke that Tangcheng has heard so far since it came to this era. Tang Cheng held his breath and continued to listen. After a while, the voices of Yao Mazi and the two gradually became louder again, which made Tang Cheng on the roof extremely happy.
The bald people hiding in the street outside could still see Tang Cheng at first, but as the night deepened, the bald people quickly lost sight of Tang Cheng. "Brother, that person is here to inquire about Yao Ge's cousin. Should we go and talk to Yao Ge's people?" The bald head was stroking his chin and thinking secretly, when one of his subordinates squatting beside him suddenly whispered. Words.
Although Yao Mazi is nothing in the circle of Paoge in Chongqing, in the eyes of these street gangsters, he is already considered a big deal. If he helps Yao Mazi this time, he may be taken into the hall by Yao Mazi. Maybe. When the bald man heard this, he looked around and saw that the brothers beside him seemed to have the same plan. The bald man, who was used to following the crowd, didn't say anything and immediately ran to the intersection with a few brothers.
The bald people who are used to hanging out in this area have long known that the tavern here at the corner of the street is Yao Mazi's property. They came here just because they didn't want Tangcheng to know that it was their letter to Yao Mazi. "Old man He, go and tell Brother Yao that someone came to inquire about the affairs of the public house. We saw that man climb into the room with our own eyes." The bald men rushed into the tavern and found the old and dim-eyed innkeeper. shouted.
The bald guys often hang out in this area, and the people in the tavern naturally know a few of them. The bald guys heard that someone had an idea for Yao Mazi and had climbed onto the roof. The people in the tavern didn't really believe it. Because this area is Yao Mazi's territory. "It's true! Mr. He, it's true. We watched with our own eyes that man climbed onto the roof along the fence. We originally thought that people in the yard would find it, but it took a long time. The few of us I didn’t hear any movement.”
The owner of the tavern, He Laoguan, looked dim-eyed, but he was actually a thoughtful liar. Although he didn't quite believe what the bald guys said, he also knew that the bald guys would never have the guts to tease him. He Laoguan, who was just thinking for a moment, did not dare to neglect, and immediately called a young boy to whisper a few words. The latter took off his apron and sleeves, and quickly disappeared into the night from the back door of the tavern.
Tang Cheng, who was still lying on the roof, didn't know that his whereabouts had been exposed at this moment. Fortunately, he had already taken precautions in advance, and the pistol he held in his right hand was the best way to take precautions. The waiter in the tavern followed Mr. He's instructions and quickly walked out of the back alley of the tavern, and finally appeared outside the back wall of Yao Mazi Hall. The courtyard separated by a wall is where Yao Mazi's restaurant is located. The tavern clerk does not dare to climb over the wall to enter, but he has other means to contact the people in the courtyard.
The tavern waiter saw that there was no one around, so he put his hands in front of his mouth. After a few breaths, a burst of bird chirping came from the tavern waiter's mouth. The chirping of birds was vivid, but the tavern clerk had forgotten that it was already dark, and no one's birds would be flying around and squawking like headless flies at this time. "It's the boy from the corner tavern!" Two men chatting in the backyard heard the birdsong. They were very familiar with the corner tavern and immediately recognized the source of the bird song.
"It's so late and you're imitating the chirping of birds on the back wall. Is there anything wrong with Xiao Liu?" The two people in the backyard were not stupid. They just looked at each other silently and roughly guessed the intention of the tavern waiter. Just when the two people climbed up the wall to talk to the tavern waiter, Tang Cheng, who was lying on the roof, also heard the chirping of birds from the backyard. Although it was not very clear, Tang Cheng's reaction was not slow.
"What? Someone broke in! It's impossible. The two of us have been here all the time. We haven't even seen a ghost, let alone a human being." The two people sitting on the wall were full of disbelief. The two of them have been in the backyard, and there are more than a dozen people in the front yard. If the intruder wants to avoid everyone's sight, it is absolutely impossible to do so. The tavern waiter was ordered to deliver the message, but when he saw that the other two did not believe what he said, they became anxious.
"Xu Jiu, I can tell you that Mr. He asked me to deliver the message. Whether you believe it or not is up to you, but if you make a mistake, you will never want to go to the tavern to drink again in the future." The tavern clerk left in a hurry. Go, Xu Jiu and Xu Jiu, who were sitting on the wall, looked at each other. Neither of them spoke, they just jumped down from the wall the same way. After lighting up the cigarette and taking only a few puffs, Xu Jiu, who was upset, threw away the cigarette and turned to go to the front yard. Xu Jiu and the other two walked forward to the front yard one after the other. Tang Cheng on the roof had also changed from a prone position to a squatting position. If an emergency arises, Tang Cheng can retreat or defend.
Tang Cheng actually had no real premonition of the approaching danger. His reaction at the moment could only be regarded as subconscious. However, he did not expect that just after he changed his body shape, he heard a commotion coming from the yard. The men in short shirts under the eaves of the front yard heard from Xu Jiu that someone had sneaked in and touched the roof. Several of them had a violent temper and started shouting. At the same time, some people rushed out of the eaves and walked to the middle of the yard. Check out the walls and roof.
"There's someone on the roof..." A sudden shout made Tang Cheng, who was squatting on the roof, instantly dumbfounded. He only felt that his head was empty at the moment. He really didn't know how the people in the yard below found him. The sky was dark now. It’s already dark at night! But no matter how much Tang Cheng complained at the moment, someone in the yard did find Tang Cheng on the roof. Along with the yelling and cursing, daggers and axes whistling in the air flew onto the roof.
"What's going on?" Just as Tang Cheng on the roof was dodging left and right to the other side of the roof, Yao Mazi, who was talking secretly with Sun Xiaochuan in the room, also heard the noise in the yard and came out of the room. "Go and have a few people go up to the roof and take a look. The rest of the people should go out and seal off the surrounding streets first, and then gather people together to help me find the people." This area is my own territory, and it can't be touched by others for no reason. They even went up to the roof at the entrance to the hall, and Yao Mazi's heart was filled with anger at this moment.
This area was Yao Mazi's sphere of influence. His men and some street gangsters in this area soon completely blocked the surrounding streets. All strangers who appeared in these streets would be attacked by them. surrounded and interrogated. Yao Mazi originally thought that he would find the man soon, but as time passed, there was still no trace of the man who escaped from the roof. An angry Yao Mazi jumped in the yard with his hands on his hips and cursed.
Yao Mazi, who had been struggling for more than an hour with no results, had to call all his men back. After standing in the yard for more than an hour, he finally remembered that Sun Xiaochuan was still left in the main room by him. But Yao Mazi didn't expect that Sun Xiaochuan was not without someone to accompany him, but Yao Mazi didn't know this person. "Close the door, shut up, come in and sit down." As soon as Yao Mazi's left foot crossed the threshold, his head was pressed against the barrel of a gun, and a deep voice appeared in his ears.
Yao Mazi had no choice but to walk into the house and turned around to close the door. When he looked at Sun Xiaochuan, he had already been firmly tied to the chair with a hemp rope. The person who appeared in the room and put the pistol on Yao Mazi's head was Tang Cheng. When Tang Cheng was discovered by Yao Mazi's men again, he had already foreseen that he would be blocked and rounded up by Yao Mazi's men. So after he slipped from the roof to the back of the house, he did not escape the yard immediately, but quietly returned to the front yard under the cover of night.
When Yao Mazi stood in the front yard with his hands on his hips and cursed, he never expected that at that moment, Tang Cheng suddenly activated his light body skill and climbed into the main house through the window. "Yao Mazi, I came here tonight specifically to see you." Yao Mazi was also tied into a chair with a hemp rope. Tang Cheng moved a chair over and sat in front of Yao Mazi and the two of them. "I have been listening to the conversation between you two on the roof for a while. I don't care about other things. I just want to know, which of you will be responsible for the deaths and injuries of my men?"
