After safely returning to his residence in Tangcheng, he had a good sleep, but found that the conflict he expected did not appear. According to Tang Cheng's original idea, this was the time to secretly provoke the Koreans and Japanese to fight several times, but he had already promised Boss Yu that he would stay honest during this period and would never provoke the Japanese again. Boss Yu tried his best to restrain Tang Cheng because he was worried that Tang Cheng would delay the assassination operation three days later because of his recklessness.
Tang Cheng didn't take the assassination mission issued by the Intelligence Division headquarters seriously at first, but after he received the follow-up relevant information sent by Boss Yu, his attitude changed. At first, Boss Yu just told Tang Cheng that the target of the assassination, Xie Tian, was a traitor from the Intelligence Department. If the assassination of Xie Tiancheng was just to clean up the family, Tang Cheng would think that this operation would be very simple, but after he read the rest of the information, he found that this assassination operation was not that simple.
According to the information provided by Boss Yu, this Xie Tiancheng is just the general logistics section chief of the Tianjin Station of the Intelligence Department. This person is not involved in the daily operations of the Tianjin Station. For such a middle-level officer who is only responsible for logistics, even if he surrenders to the enemy, the consequences and losses he can cause should not be very great. But why did the Japanese send a rebel who was originally affiliated with the Tianjin Station to Shanghai High-Tech? As for the Intelligence Department, why are they so anxious to kill this person?
The information sent by Boss Yu has been carefully read by Tang Cheng many times, but he has never been able to see from this information why Xie Tiancheng is so important. If it were anyone else, they might think that Xie Tiancheng was just a simple assassination target based on this information, but Tang Cheng didn't think so. The less suspicious the information related to Xie Tiancheng became, the more Tang Cheng felt that something was wrong with this matter, but Tang Cheng couldn't tell what was specifically wrong.
Tang Cheng has always been very confident in his intuition. Whether it was when he attacked Japanese officers in Hongkou District last year or in the Japanese military hospital a few days ago, Tang Cheng's intuition worked. Tang Cheng believed in his intuition, but he didn't want to ask Boss Yu, because if the boss didn't know anything about it, if he rashly came to ask about it, it might be counterproductive and make Boss Yu resentful.
Two days later, it was time for Xie Tiancheng to arrive at the Shanghai pier. Tang Cheng, who couldn't find the answer after thinking about it, simply stopped thinking about it. The remaining time was just to perfect the steps of the assassination operation. Two days passed quickly. Boss Yu, who was worried about Tang Cheng going out to cause trouble, called Tang Cheng's residence many times. Knowing that Tang Cheng had stayed there honestly for the past three days and never left the house, Boss Yu finally let go. Heart comes.
The third day was the time for action. Tang Cheng got up very early and started preparing the weapons and equipment to be used today, as well as the things needed for disguise. After breakfast, Tang Cheng left the residence early, but he did not rush to the dock immediately to wait for the target to appear. Instead, he wandered aimlessly in the concession with a leisurely expression. Just like three days ago, there were still many suspicious-looking men in the concession. The Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau of the concession had obviously made a private deal with the Japanese. At least the concession patrol room did not expel these people.
Tang Cheng, who was blending into the crowd, looked at the suspicious people walking around the street with cold eyes, thinking that if there weren't important things to do today, none of these guys would be spared. After taking a final glance at the men in short clothes not far from him, Tang Cheng slowly turned around and turned along the street entrance into the street on the left. If he walked straight along this street, he only had to cross Three blocks away was Tangcheng's pre-anticipated starting point.
According to the information provided by Boss Yu, Xie Tiancheng will arrive in Shanghai by boat. The pier is crowded with people, making it the best place to assassinate Xie Tiancheng. But Tang Cheng always felt that there was something strange about this matter, so he did not choose to take action on the pier, but chose the only intersection after leaving the pier as the place to do it. If Xie Tiancheng's coming to Shanghai was a trap set by T&G, then they would never have imagined that they would choose this place as the place to do it.
Tang Cheng walked forward slowly along the street. It was still at least an hour and a half before Xie Tiancheng's boat arrived at the dock. This hour and a half was enough for Tang Cheng to arrive at the attack site and lurk smoothly. Dressed as a student, he walked through Tangcheng, paying attention to his surroundings and buying snacks from small shops on the street from time to time. When there was only one street left from the lurking place, Tang Cheng was already holding several bags of snacks in his hands. No one would regard such a gluttonous Tang Cheng as a dangerous person.
Not noticing anything unusual around him, Tang Cheng felt secretly happy while eating and walking. After about a quarter of an hour, Tang Cheng finally reached the downstairs of the lurking point. Tangcheng chose a five-story hotel on the street. Tangcheng, who had already seen the scene a day in advance, took a familiar route to the back alley of the hotel, and then used the Flying Claw Rope and the Lightweight Skill to quickly make no sound. climbed up to the roof of the hotel. After climbing to the top of the building, Tang Cheng lowered his body, moved to the edge of the roof, and slowly straightened up to look toward the southeast of the hotel.
The road to the southeast of the hotel is the only passage connecting to the pier. All passengers or goods disembarking at the pier will enter Shanghai through this street. Tang Cheng quickly built a temporary bunker using the debris on the roof. Even if someone came up to the roof at this moment, it would be impossible to spot Tang Cheng lurking under the temporary bunker at a glance. As time passed, Tang Cheng, who had already taken out the sniper rifle from his equipment bag, carefully inspected the weapon and slowly pressed the bullet into the magazine.
Among the information provided by Boss Yu, there was a photo of Xie Tiancheng. After secretly activating the triple eyepiece skill, Tang Cheng, who was hiding on the roof of the hotel, could clearly see all the people leaving from the dock passing by the road below. While Tang Cheng was hiding on the roof of the hotel, patiently waiting for Xie Tiancheng to appear, a group of high-tech plainclothes scattered on the dock were also waiting nervously.
Tang Cheng's premonition was very accurate. This Xie Tiancheng was a trap set by Tigao Ke to encircle and suppress members of the Shanghai Station of the Intelligence Service hiding in Shanghai. Although Xie Tiancheng was an insignificant figure in Tangcheng's eyes, Tangcheng didn't know that when he was in Tianjin, Xie Tiancheng had been secretly responsible for the smuggling activities at Tianjin Station. If Xie Tiancheng makes the Tianjin Station's collusion with Japanese businessmen smuggling public, the reputation of the Intelligence Agency will be greatly damaged. The Intelligence Agency headquarters will order Tangcheng to assassinate Xie Tiancheng for this reason.
Xie Tiancheng, who had been used as a bait, understood this truth in his heart, but now he could no longer look back and could only survive by hugging the Japanese's thighs tightly. The ship Xie Tiancheng was on had not yet docked, but the several plainclothes special agents responsible for protecting him along the way had once again stepped up their protection against Xie Tiancheng. As a protected person, Xie Tiancheng could only stay in the cabin at this time.
Amid the cheers of the crowd at the dock, Xie Tiancheng's boat finally docked. According to Shanghai T&T Hi-Tech's orders, Xie Tiancheng should take the initiative to appear on the deck at this time to lure members of the intelligence service who may be hiding on the dock to show up. Xie Tiancheng, who was trembling with fear in his heart, appeared on the deck under the close protection of several people beside him. Unfortunately, the situation expected by Shanghai T&T Hi-Tech did not appear. "Captain Hashimoto, is it possible that Shanghai Station still doesn't know about Xie Tiancheng's arrival in Shanghai?"
A group of high-tech plainclothes hidden in the cargo area of the dock were a little impatient. If the Shanghai Station had not fallen into the trap and sent people to the dock, all the arrangements they had made would have been in vain. Hashimoto Junichi, who had always had a cold face, did not speak. He just held a telescope and carefully observed the situation on the dock. Passengers on the ship began to disembark one after another after the ship docked, but Hashimoto Junichi still did not find anyone from Shanghai Station on the pier.
Could it be that the Shanghai Station really didn’t know the news about Xie Tiancheng coming to Shanghai? As time passed and the number of passengers on the ship decreased, even Hashimoto Junichi himself became a little frustrated! Xie Tiancheng, who appeared on the deck as a bait, was dumbfounded at this time. He knew in his heart that if he was no longer worthy of being a bait, those people from T&G would probably kill the donkey.
Amid Xie Tiancheng's worry, there were fewer and fewer passengers on the ship, but the assassination at the dock expected by Shanghai T&T Hi-Tech never happened. "Close the team! Inform everyone on the ship to get off!" Even though he didn't want to believe it, Hashimoto Junichi knew that this operation had failed. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people on the pier, Hashimoto Junichi had no choice but to order the withdrawal of T&T Technology Co., Ltd. Let’s talk about this later. Xie Tiancheng, who had not been assassinated, felt half happy and half worried. Then under the protection of several people beside him, he got off the boat and got into the car brought by Hashimoto Junichi and others.
Hashimoto Junichi and others, who took advantage of the excitement but returned disappointed, looked somewhat unsightly on their faces. Xie Tiancheng, who was riding in the same car with Hashimoto Junichi, had no choice but to act like a deaf and blind man, and just sat quietly with Hashimoto Junichi. around. All the people brought by Hashimoto Junichi evacuated the pier. How could such a group of people leaving the pier and hiding in Tangcheng on the roof of the hotel not be seen. Before Junichi Hashimoto got into the car, his interaction with his plainclothes men had already made Tangcheng firmly lock the car in which Junichi Hashimoto was riding.
As Tang Cheng waited and watched, the car that had been marked by Tang Cheng's system skills was slowly approaching the hotel building. Tang Cheng, who secretly adjusted his breathing, slowly extended the barrel of the sniper rifle through the hole he had drilled on the edge of the roof. He only had to pull the trigger, and the life-threatening bullet would immediately fly out of the barrel. Shoot out.
