The intruder with the gun to his head had already left, but Han Guangzhu still stood there dumbly without moving. If the door hadn't been open, maybe Han Guangzhu would have thought that what just happened was just that. My own random thoughts. Zhao Kuize and others had also come downstairs, but they were still in a coma at the moment. They all tried together, but they couldn't beat the intruder.
After more than half an hour, Zhao Kuize and the others woke up after being knocked unconscious. When they opened their eyes, they saw Han Guangzhu sitting next to them with a lonely look on his face. "Brother Guangzhu, who is that person?" Zhao Kuize reached out and rubbed his neck, moved his body and sat down next to Han Guangzhu. When he discovered that Han Guangzhu was held to the head with a gun by a stranger, he was the first to notice and rush to take action, and he was also the first to be knocked unconscious.
When everyone's eyes turned towards him, Han Guangzhu said what Zhao Kuize and others had not heard, "Our plan has probably been leaked. After that person knocked you unconscious, he opened his mouth and revealed it." Our identity. It is not easy for that person to be able to find our residence so accurately. I guess that person is either from the Intelligence Department or the Central Government, or from the Shanghai underground party, otherwise he would not have spared our lives."
Han Guangzhu's judgment was just his personal speculation, but Zhao Kuize and others were concerned about the intruder's purpose here, "The man said that he knew that we were members of the National Salvation Army, and he could help us send weapons and equipment to Hongkou District. However, , he wants to cooperate with us. In other words, our operations can be carried out as usual, but there may be a few more attack targets." Han Guangzhu's words made Zhao Kuize and others unable to react for a moment. The suggestion made by the intruder , seemed to have no hindrance to their actions.
"I'm worried right now whether that person is just indulging in lust. What if when our manpower enters Hongkou District, the Japanese will come all over him." Han Guangzhu's worries at the moment are not unnecessary. In fact In the past, the Korean National Salvation Army had been hiding in Shanghai for so many years, during which they had encountered many sieges and suppressions by THT. Han Guangzhu didn't want to be restricted by others, but he couldn't refuse the proposal made by the other party. If the weapons could not be delivered to Hongkou District before the operation, their long-planned attack would have no choice but to be suspended.
"Brother Guangzhu, why don't you agree to give it a try first! Xiushu works in a restaurant. He goes in and out of Hongkou District every day to purchase ingredients for the restaurant. We can ask that person to help us deliver weapons and ammunition to Hongkou District first. , after Hideki confirms it, it won’t be too late for us to talk about cooperation with that person!” Zhao Kuize has always given people the impression of being more naive than smart, but the suggestion he made at this moment made Han Guangzhu’s eyes light up. I thought I could give it a try.
While Han Guangzhu and the others were racking their brains to discuss countermeasures, Tang Cheng had already removed his disguise and was walking slowly in the street. Using the Korean National Salvation Army as cannon fodder to attract the attention of the Japanese army and THT in Shanghai, Tang Cheng actually did not realize how subtle this move was. But he has no one available now. Even though the combat effectiveness of the Korean National Salvation Army is still very weak, Tang Cheng, who has limited energy, has no other choice at this moment. As he walked aimlessly along the street, Tang Cheng's mind was already far away. Just as he subconsciously turned sideways to avoid a passerby who was walking towards him, he suddenly heard a gunshot in his ears.
"Papa!" Before Tangcheng could react to avoid it, a man in a suit rushed out of a shop more than ten meters away from Tangcheng. While running away, the man shot twice at the shop behind him. . Tang Cheng didn't think much, and immediately followed a few pedestrians on the roadside and got into the alley on the street without raising his head. Seeing a group of people shouting and running past the alley, Tang Cheng squatted in the alley pretending to be shivering, and then followed those pedestrians out of the alley.
The runners and pursuers had already gone away, but there was already a circle of idlers watching the excitement at the door of the shop where the gunshot had just been fired. Tang Cheng unexpectedly discovered a familiar face among these idlers. "Edmund, why are you here?" Edmund, who should have been in his residence at this time, was watching the excitement among the crowd. Tang Cheng felt very curious. Like Tangcheng, Edmund was also surprised to see Tangcheng here. After all, this location was quite far from their residence. Perhaps feeling that this was not a good place to talk, Tang Cheng immediately tilted his head at Edmund and motioned for the other person to follow him to the side to talk.
When Tang Cheng saw Edmund in the crowd, he unconsciously ignored the two foreign youths who were looking at Edmund not far away. Perhaps it was due to the suddenness of Tang Cheng's appearance and the way he tilted his head towards Edmund. The action caused a misunderstanding among the two foreign youths. Just when Tang Cheng turned around first, one of the foreign youths used his body to block Edmund, while the other one hit Tang Cheng in the abdomen with an uppercut.
The sudden attack did not make Tang Cheng panic. He just used his left elbow to press down to block the opponent's uppercut. While secretly inhaling, Tang Cheng took a step forward and directly hit the foreign young man's chest with his body. The foreign youth who suddenly attacked with a punch looked strong and tall, more than a head taller than Tang Cheng. Under normal circumstances, anyone who saw Tang Cheng would say that Tang Cheng was no match for him.
However, after Tang Cheng withstood the opponent's attack, he launched a counterattack within two breaths, forcefully knocking the opponent back one after another. The confrontation between the two men in Tangcheng ended in just an instant. Edmund, who was only two or three meters away from the two, did not see clearly because there was still a person blocking him. However, Edmund's reaction was not slow. From the corner of his eye, he saw the other person being forced back by Tang Cheng. He immediately stretched out his hand to push the person in front of him and shouted in a low voice to Tang Cheng who turned around. A voice.
"Edmund, you don't have to rush to explain, I know this is none of your business." Tang Cheng turned around, the expression on his face did not change. After only glancing at Edmund, Tang Cheng turned to look at the foreign young man who had just punched him. Just now, Tang Cheng felt that this man looked familiar. Now that he looked face to face carefully, Tang Cheng recognized him immediately. . "Your name should be George. Although I don't know if this is your real name, I am sure that we have met before."
The foreign youth who punched Tang Cheng but was blocked was looking at Tang Cheng with a confused look on his face. He had been practicing boxing since he was a child and knew how powerful his punches were, but the man in front of him looked much smaller than him. Guy, but he blocked it very easily. He didn't hear what Tang Cheng said at this moment. He just wanted to fight Tang Cheng again because he was very confident in his fists.
"This is not the place to talk, Edmund. If you don't object, we can talk somewhere else." The young foreigner didn't seem to recognize him before the meeting, so Tang Cheng turned his attention to Edmund. These two foreign young men devoted themselves to protecting Edmund. Needless to say, Tang Cheng could guess that there must be some kind of connection between them, and Tang Cheng was very curious about this.
Edmund nodded slowly, and the three of them followed Tang Cheng out of the street, and finally sat down in a cafe in the next street. "Edmund, what happened to the shooting just now? I think you have been watching it for a while, so you should know something about it." After a few people sat down in the cafe, Tang Cheng did not immediately ask Edmund and this person. The relationship between the two foreign youths, but deliberately mentioned the gunshot just now.
"I don't know much. I heard from people next to me that it was the plainclothes patrolmen in the concession who were rounding up the prisoners. It was said that it was related to a batch of electrical equipment in the black market." Edmund did not hide it from Tang Cheng. Amidst constant hints and objections, Edmund told everything he knew about the situation. Black market electrical materials? Tang Cheng frowned slightly when he heard this. In this case, the person who rushed out of the store just now and ran and fired must be a member of the Shanghai underground party, because in Shanghai, apart from the underground party, there are no other people who cause trouble for electrical materials. People.
Tang Cheng thought that this matter was related to the Shanghai underground party, but he did not say it out loud. After putting down the cafe in his hand, Tang Cheng immediately raised his head and looked at the two foreign youths. "It's true that this is a concession, but this is not a safe place for you Jews. The Japanese have allied with the Nazis. This is not a secret. As far as the current development of the war is concerned, the possibility of the Japanese army controlling the entire Shanghai has been Once the Japanese army controls the whole of Shanghai, will the Jews living in Shanghai still live as leisurely as they do now?"
Tang Cheng saw through the identities of these two foreign youths at a glance, and Edmund was shocked. Thinking back to what Tang Cheng had said before, Edmund looked at the foreign youth on his left with a suspicious expression. The foreign young man who was stared at by Edmund shook his head involuntarily. In his memory, he did not remember that he had met Tang Cheng. What exactly is going on? Edmund believed that his companion would not deceive him, so he turned his head and looked at Tangcheng.
"Perhaps you have forgotten, then let me remind you!" Edmund's eyes showed deep suspicion. Tang Cheng did not explain, but grinned at the foreign young man. "Nanjing Confucius Temple! Do you still have an impression of this place? In the middle of August last year, you and your companions entangled a Chinese girl in Nanjing Confucius Temple. Your companion was beaten very badly. The one who did it was That Chinese girl’s brother.”
"You are Tang Juan's younger brother!" Tang Cheng mentioned the Nanjing Confucius Temple and the matter of entangled Chinese girls. The American young man who was once named George suddenly realized, and then pointed at Tang Cheng and screamed. Just looking at his expression at the moment, it was obvious that he was not really happy to meet Tang Cheng in Shanghai.
