Tang Cheng likes face-to-face discussions on important matters, so he took the eager Ma San to Hans's restaurant. Hans did not expect that Tang Cheng would bring a stranger to his place. In his impression, Tang Cheng always liked to act alone. "Don't worry, he's one of our own. He's one of our own who I can entrust secrets to." Tang Cheng's words to introduce Ma San were very concise, but Hans could hear Tang Cheng's attitude from it. He was one of his own who could entrust secrets to. , is obviously one of the most trusted people in Tangcheng.
When Tang Cheng was still in Nanjing, he had close contacts with foreigners. Ma San would not be surprised by this. Waiting patiently for Tang Cheng to light up his cigarette, Hans finally spoke, "This news was accidentally learned by one of my idlers, and it has been confirmed by many parties. There is absolutely no doubt about the authenticity of this news." ." Hans, who was sitting behind the desk, spoke, opened the drawer of the desk, took out a few photos from the drawer and handed them to Tang Cheng and Ma San.
"The person wearing the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the photo is the protagonist of this news, Miyamoto Jingichi. This person is a logistics officer of the Kwantung Army. Miyamoto Jingichi came to Shanghai a day or two ago and is currently staying in a hotel in the French Concession. Here, my people have determined that a batch of goods he brought to Shanghai is currently stored in Warehouse 2 at Shiliupu Wharf. As for why this person does not go to the military wharf but lives in the French Concession, I guess he is Prepare to transport that cargo on foreign cargo ships.”
Hans's last words made Tang Cheng frown slightly. It seemed that the target was a guy who didn't like to play his cards according to common sense! Hans had been paying attention to Tang Cheng's reaction. When he saw Tang Cheng frowning slightly, he explained. "When Miyamoto entered the French Concession, he used a Chinese identity. When he checked into the French hotel, his registered name was Jia Wanchun. I didn't contact you immediately because I wanted to find out that Miyamoto had deliberately stayed there. Is the French Concession’s move a trap?”
Tang Cheng nodded slightly when he heard this. If Hans could explain this at this time, he could already explain that Miyamoto should not be a trap set by Tekko. "Then what do you mean? Since you are in the French Concession and the goods are stored at Shiliupu Pier, you can just tie up people and transfer the goods. Those people under you are enough, why do you want to come to me?" Tangcheng He held the photo in his hand and looked up at Hans behind the desk.
Hans, who looked up at Tang Cheng, shrugged, then spread his hands and made a helpless expression, "Tang, you must have forgotten the deal we made before! More than half of my people have already returned to Berlin. I won’t be able to come back in a short time.” Because Ma San was still present, Hans expressed his meaning very implicitly, but Tang Cheng understood that half of the people Hans was talking about at the moment should be Hans’ close men. , not all his men.
Hans' explanation did not make Tang Cheng's slightly frowning eyebrows loosen. On the contrary, he felt more and more that something was not quite right. "Hans, you should know my habits. If you don't make it clear what you are hiding, I will never get involved in this matter." Tang Cheng's expression became serious. He originally looked lazy. Ma San also sat upright at this time, with a hint of anger in his eyes.
Hans was frightened by Ma San's appearance. He hurriedly waved his hand at Tang Cheng and explained with a pale face. "Tang, I'm not lying to you! I've only known this news for two days. It's already pretty good to be able to find out this information in this short time. And it was you who interrupted me just now. It's not I concealed it from you on purpose. Think about it carefully, is that what I said?"
Tang Cheng secretly chuckled when Hans, who could force him, showed his anxious face, but he was sure that Hans must be hiding something from him. "Whatever you say, anyway, I still said what I just said. Since you deliberately concealed something, then I wish you immediate success!" Tang Cheng deliberately said these words with a straight face, and then got up from the sofa. He stood up and looked like he was leaving immediately. Ma San came with Tang Cheng. Seeing that Tang Cheng was about to leave, Ma San naturally stood up as well.
"Tang, don't leave yet, please listen to my explanation, okay!" Seeing that Tang Cheng and the two were about to leave, Hans quickly turned out from behind the table. He was smart and did not stop the Tang Cheng and the two directly, but stepped forward to block them. In front of the door. "Tang, I really told you everything I know!" Hans opened his arms to block the door. While he couldn't help but defend himself, he also didn't forget to pay attention to Tang Cheng's expression and reaction.
Hans blocked the door and refused to give way. Tang Cheng could only stand there and said to Hans, "Hans, you are all sensible people. According to my understanding of you, if you only have this information on hand, you will never give it to I called because it was too risky. You should also know my habits. If the situation is unclear or the information is incomplete, I will never take action, not to mention that the other party is an active officer of the Kwantung Army."
Ma San was completely unaware of what Tang Cheng had done after coming to Shanghai, but Hans was not Ma San. After all, when Tang Cheng launched these actions, he often asked Hans for help. At this moment, Tang Cheng said he was worried. When asked about the identity of the other party as an officer of the Kwantung Army, Hans finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Tang, are you kidding me? The other party is just a logistics lieutenant of the Kwantung Army, but you were beaten to death in the Xinya Hotel Where is the person who has passed the military police colonel!"
Hans's words made Old Tang Cheng blush slightly, but he still refused to admit that his excuse just now was completely untenable, "Don't tell me about the Xinya Hotel. I have already told you, that matter was with me It doesn't matter. Now that we're talking about this little logistics officer of the Kwantung Army, let's talk about it. If there are no other things, why does this Kwantung Army lieutenant colonel have to live in a hotel in the French Concession? Where? According to my understanding of the Japanese army, active-duty officers like them will only live in prescribed places if they leave the station."
"Although Shanghai is a big city, the concession is currently not under the control of the Japanese army. According to common sense, after the Kwantung Army commander comes to Shanghai, he should live in Hongkou District, not the French Concession." Hans still refused to give in. After opening the door, Tang Cheng had no choice but to turn around and sit down on the sofa again. "You just told me the identity of the target. My first reaction was that I thought this was a trap by T&G, especially since he stored the goods at Shiliupu Pier. This is so abnormal!"
"According to what I know about you, although you love money, you cherish life even more. You are not a fool, so you can naturally see the problems here. Since you can see the problems, you still insist on the possibility of action. , this means that you already know the problem. But what you just told me did not explain the problem. I don’t know why you want to hide it, but I don’t want to be a fool." Tang Cheng has already explained at this moment The traces were clear, and even Ma San, who had been silent all this time, understood what Tang Cheng meant. How could Hans not understand it?
"Okay, I admit that there are some things that I didn't explain clearly, but you have to understand that the things I concealed will not do any harm to you." Hans, with a wry smile on his face, finally let go of the door. Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, Tang Cheng would already understand the fact that he was hiding something. "There are some things that I didn't say because I couldn't reveal the identity of the informant. In other words, as long as I explain everything, you will be able to know from these things who the informant who provided me with this information is." ”
Hans' explanation was very difficult, but Tang Cheng remained calm. The more Hans acted like this, the more Tang Cheng wanted to know who Hans' informant was. Ma San didn't understand what Tang Cheng was doing with this big-nosed foreigner. After seeing Tang Cheng sit down on the sofa again, he also sat down, reached out and grabbed an apple from the plate in front of him and ate it. He completely regarded himself as a bystander. Ma San's actions seemed to have suddenly inspired Tang Cheng. His eyes returned to Hans. Tang Cheng, who was looking at Hans, suddenly tilted his lips and smiled.
"Hans, I can try to guess. You are so nervous about the person who informed you of the news. I think this person's identity is very secret. He can know such confidential information. This person is not simple. Although this Miyamoto is actually a He didn't want others to know that he came to Shanghai and brought a batch of goods, but he couldn't successfully transport the goods back to Japan alone. He must have an assistant or someone who could provide him with it. People who need help.”
"Under such circumstances, the person who still knows the news is probably a Japanese, and also a Japanese soldier, or a Japanese officer." When Tang Cheng spoke, he did not stare at Hans. Ma Ma, who had been watching, Sanke was eating the apple while secretly paying attention to Hans's speech. When Tang Cheng said that the person providing the information was a Japanese, Ma San clearly saw Hans' eyebrows twitching. When Tang Cheng said that the person providing the information was a Japanese officer, Ma San saw Hans swallowing his saliva. Actions.
This is right! Ma San, whose eyes were wide-eyed, subconsciously turned to look at Tang Cheng. He couldn't understand how Tang Cheng could guess this. Realizing that Ma San was looking at him with round eyes at this moment, Tang Cheng, who understood in his heart, did not explain in words, but raised his eyes to look at Hans. "Hans, since I guessed it right, do you still feel the need to continue to hide it? Aren't you worried that when I take action one day, I will accidentally kill the person you deliberately concealed?"
