What Xie Jinyuan's officers thought was suspicious were two men who looked like reporters. Tang Cheng just glanced at the two men with the corner of his eye and immediately recognized that these two were definitely not reporters, because just yesterday , Tang Cheng had already seen these two people outside Jiaodong Park. When Tang Cheng saw these two people yesterday, they were getting out of a car on the street, and sitting in the back seat of the car was a Japanese with a beard.

Japanese newspapers would never send reporters to the Lone Army Camp for interviews. Tang Cheng smiled secretly in his heart, and then pretended to take back the catalog of condolences from Xie Jinyuan. "Don't worry about it, just relax. The more nervous you are at this time, the more likely you are to reveal your flaws!" Tang Cheng reminded Xie Jinyuan and Tan Wensong in a low voice while taking back the notebook. "I am now the assistant to Huang Han of the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce. It is normal for me to have contact with Chief Xie."

Tang Cheng's words reminded Xie Jinyuan and Tan Wensong that the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce came to Gujun Camp to express condolences, and it was not abnormal at all to have contact with people from the Chamber of Commerce. As expected, the two men who looked like reporters were constantly looking towards Tang Cheng and the others. Seeing that Tang Cheng and Xie Jinyuan were separated, Ama Shi followed Tang Cheng quietly. But it's a pity that the person following Tang Cheng could only watch helplessly as Tang Cheng walked all the way to the people from the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce, and all he talked about was the distribution of condolences.

"There should be no problem. What I heard them talking about was the distribution of condolences. They are all people from the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce over there." The people who followed Tangcheng returned without success, and their attention was focused on Xie Jinyuan and Tan Wensong's body. Different from Tangcheng, Tan Wensong entered the lonely army camp for the first time under the banner of Xie Jinyuan's Meishan fellow. Two Meishan people talked together. These two plainclothes agents from Shanghai could not understand Xie Jinyuan and the others. What is said.

After leaving Gujun Camp, Tang Cheng separated from Huang Han and the others. According to the plan, after Tang Cheng left Gujun Camp today, he not only had to meet with the Korean National Salvation Army, but also went to Hansi's side. Seeing that it was still early, Tang Cheng, who left the Lone Army Camp, headed back to the French Concession. He decided to meet those from the Korean National Army first. The people of the Korean National Salvation Army in the French Concession have been very anxious these days. As the time for the operation gets closer and closer, they have never found an opportunity to bring weapons into Hongkou District.

Without weapons and equipment, they had no choice but to give up on their previously planned actions. The appearance of Tangcheng gave them a chance. Han Guangzhu, who was at a loss what to do, had reported to his superiors many times, but his superiors had yet to give a reply. "Brother Guangzhu, what did you say above? The time for the operation is getting closer and closer. If we can't get the weapons in, our operation will have to be cancelled!" Han Guangzhu can still keep his composure, but his hand The people below couldn't bear it anymore.

When Tang Cheng arrived, Han Guangzhu's team members were venting their dissatisfaction with their superiors one by one. "Did I come at the wrong time?" As soon as he walked in, he could tell that something was wrong with the atmosphere here. Tang Cheng still deliberately pretended not to know anything and asked. Seeing that Han Guangzhu just shook his head and said nothing, Tang Cheng chuckled, "Is there something wrong with your actions? I am just because of the transportation of weapons, right? Then have you conveyed my suggestions to your superiors?"

Han Guangzhu stretched out his hand and scratched his head after hearing this, "I have reported it to the superiors, but there is no reply yet." Tang Cheng believed Han Guangzhu's words, and he had already seen that the atmosphere here was wrong, and it should be related to the attitude of the upper echelons of the National Salvation Army. . However, this is an internal matter within the Korean National Salvation Army. If Tang Cheng expresses his opinion at this time, it may be counterproductive and make Han Guangzhu and others suspicious of their own purpose.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome. It's better to do this. What I said that day can be completely ignored. Just do what I want to do by yourself. As for the things you need to transport, I will help you get them in, but you You have to pay me a certain fee." Tangcheng needs the Korean National Salvation Army to divert the attention of the Japanese army and THT in Shanghai, so Han Guangzhu's operation must continue, otherwise Tangcheng needs to find other ways .

Tang Cheng changed his mind so easily that Han Guangzhu couldn't help but secretly wonder, but Tang Cheng smiled and spread his hands. "Things can always be changed. Your superiors have not responded for a long time. They are probably worried that you will be taken advantage of by me. So, we can solve this problem in another direction. You pay and I will help you transport the weapons. We will just It’s just an employment relationship, so I think your superiors won’t have any problems anymore.”

The changes Tang Cheng mentioned were just his temporary decisions. Han Guangzhu pondered for a while and had to admit that this seemed to be the best solution. "You'd better report to your superiors immediately. I don't have much time. I'm afraid I can only give you two days to think about it. In two days, I may go to Peking, so you have to speed up the progress!" Go to Peking , is naturally Tang Cheng’s excuse, and the purpose is just to force Han Guangzhu and his superiors.

Han Guangzhu didn't know Tang Cheng's intention, but he was not anxious. After all, Tang Cheng's origin was mysterious, and he still suspected that Tang Cheng's purpose was impure. "Looks like we have to find another way!" Not getting the answer he wanted from the Korean National Salvation Army, Tang Cheng walked along the street and thought to himself, but for a while, he couldn't think of a way. Tang Cheng was walking and unknowingly wandered into Hans' restaurant. Seeing that there were too many people in the restaurant, Tang Cheng did not go in immediately.

There happened to be a shoe store diagonally across from the restaurant. Tang Cheng stood in front of the window and looked around for a few times. He felt that a pair of short boots in the store were of good style, so he opened the door and entered the shoe store. The business of the shoe store didn't seem to be very good. When Tangcheng entered, there were only two foreign women in the shoe store choosing shoes. Seeing Tang Cheng with an Asian face come in, the two foreign women looked at Tang Cheng curiously. Tang Cheng's heart was moved. He could tell from the eyes of the two foreign women that they were of the same kind. .

Through the window of the shoe store, Hans' restaurant could be seen. Tang Cheng, who was looking at the window from the corner of his eye, had an idea and pointed at the pair of men's short boots he had just seen. "Please pick up a pair of black ones!" Tang Cheng, who reported his shoe size, quickly got short boots that fit his shoe size from the shoe store owner. I don't know whether it was accidental or intentional. When Tang Cheng took the shoes, his right hand His fingers happened to brush across the shoe store owner's wrist.

As long as there is physical contact, Tang Cheng can activate the triggering skill. The shoe store owner looks simple, but just this inconspicuous contact gives Tang Cheng a rough understanding of this person's identity. Could it be that Hans' identity has been exposed? Tang Cheng, who realized that the owner of the shoe store had a hidden identity, muttered secretly in his heart. Looking at the two foreign women who were trying on shoes, Tang Cheng suddenly realized that this shoe store was more like a surveillance point.

Maybe it's because Tang Cheng has an Asian face and he doesn't look very old. The shoe store owner and the two foreign women didn't seem to be overly wary of Tang Cheng, but they didn't communicate much between them. . Tang Cheng calmly tried on the pair of short boots, then paid and left. However, when he left the shoe store, he did not go directly to Hans's restaurant, but went around in a circle and called Hans's restaurant from the back alley. the back door.

"Why didn't you come in from the front?" Tang Cheng came here several times and always walked through the front door, but this time he walked through the back door. When he saw Tang Cheng again, his expression was not very good, so Hans subconsciously said something to Tang Cheng. Cheng asked. The restaurant's business was very good today, and people were coming and going in the back kitchen. Tang Cheng couldn't tell Hans what happened in detail, so he could only wink at Hans and prepare to go to Hans' office to talk.

"Have you been to the shoe store across the street?" After entering Hans' office, Tang Cheng put the shoe box on the table and went straight to the topic. "I just saw a lot of people in the restaurant, so I wanted to go to other places first. I happened to see a pair of good short boots in the shoe store opposite. Guess what? The shoe store owner and two female customers, I looked at You don't look like an ordinary person. If you think about it carefully, are you showing off your skills and being targeted?"

The news brought by Tangcheng did not immediately cause Hans to panic. For many years in Shanghai, Hans had experienced many dangerous emergencies. "The shoe store across the street?" Hans reached out and rubbed his chin, thinking secretly. "I don't think I've ever bought anything in this street! You said there's a shoe store across the street, but I really haven't noticed that! Do you really think there's something wrong with the shoe store?"

Hans had seen with his own eyes what Tang Cheng was capable of, but that was only Tang Cheng's combat ability. He felt that the other party was suspicious after just one encounter, and Hans still couldn't believe it. "If you don't believe me, you'd better send your people to take a look. When I came out of the shoe store, the two women hadn't left yet. One with blond hair was wearing a dark coat, and the one with brown hair was wearing a plaid coat. , the two women look pretty young, and the blond one is wearing a wedding ring."

Tang Cheng wouldn't find it strange that Hans was suspicious. Even if it were him, he wouldn't easily trust other people's judgments. However, Tang Cheng described it to Hans quite carefully at this moment. The latter immediately picked up the phone to contact his people and repeated Tang Cheng's description on the phone. "Wait a moment. My people will follow those two women secretly. Whether they are friends or foes will be known soon."

The wait between the two people in Tangcheng did not last long. After about half an hour, the phone in Hans's office rang. The caller was the person Hans had arranged for. "It's confirmed. Those two women went to the British Concession. My people saw that the person meeting them was Boris. This person is from the British Intelligence Department." Putting down the phone, Hans's expression became much more solemn, and he was It's obviously not a good thing to be targeted by people from the British intelligence services.
