It hasn't even reached the weekend yet, and it has already rained three times in a row in Shanghai. Tang Cheng, who got up early, is sitting on the bed blankly, looking at the rain outside the window in confusion. If Tang Cheng is a homebody, then he should know that rainy days are the best days to sleep. Tang Cheng's eyes gradually became clearer, but he knew that he couldn't sleep in because today was the day when the action started. Tangcheng, who entered Hongkou District three days in advance, had already investigated the route of the operation, as well as the situation of the Japanese police and military police patrols in Hongkou District.
Tangcheng caused trouble in Hongkou District twice, leaving unforgettable memories for the Japanese police and military police in Hongkou District. Only a few months have passed, and the Japanese police and military police who used to be on a tightrope all day long have relaxed. At least this is the situation detected by Tangcheng. After getting dressed, Tang Cheng did not go downstairs to eat. Instead, he stayed in the room to check the weapons and equipment to be used in the operation for the last time. This was the basic guarantee for his smooth implementation of the operation.
Tangcheng Lion opened his mouth. Before entering Hongkou District, he asked Hans for a large number of bullets, as well as some things that were rare in the black market. In order to reduce the weight of the portable equipment bag, Tang Cheng put the Mauser rifle and some sundries in Hans' restaurant first, and only took the newly acquired MP40 and two pistols with him. At this moment, three guns, one long, two short, were placed on Tang Cheng's bed, along with a pile of spare magazines that had been loaded with bullets.
There were five *** magazines, all filled with bullets, and six pistol magazines, all filled with bullets. The remaining scattered bullets were packed in two cloth bags, and the number was more than a hundred rounds. Tang Cheng, who looked calm, did not neglect at all, but carefully checked the firearms and equipment that he needed to use in his actions. In order to use the space in his carry-on equipment bag to carry more weapons and ammunition, Tang Cheng also wore a special vest with sewn soft cloth ammunition bags, which could be used to place spare ammunition loaded with bullets. magazine.
For today's action, Tang Cheng had made all preparations. Seeing that the rain outside was getting lighter, Tang Cheng, who was wearing a fat raincoat, finally left the hotel. The raincoat was large enough to cover Tang Cheng's vest filled with magazines, and the hood of the raincoat also gave Tang Cheng a certain degree of privacy. Following the route that had been scouted long ago, Tang Cheng, wearing a raincoat, soon appeared outside the residence of Hayata Zenjiro's illegitimate son. He only paused briefly outside the gate before Tang Cheng stepped forward and pressed the doorbell.
The information provided by Hans showed that there was an old woman who took care of children living in this yard all year round. According to this time, there should be two helpers in the yard who were responsible for chores. After Tang Cheng reached out and rang the doorbell, he stood quietly at the door and waited. More than ten seconds later, a square doorway appeared above the door lock, and an old face appeared in the doorway. "This is the Hayata family, who are you looking for?" The face behind the door must be one of the servants. He looks like an old man over fifty years old.
"I am a subordinate of Lieutenant Colonel Hayata. Today is the child's first birthday. Lieutenant Colonel sent me to deliver a gift." Tang Cheng, who was standing in front of the courtyard gate, looked nothing strange. While answering the other party, Tang Cheng also raised his right hand. , so that the other party can see the box in his hand. Tang Cheng came to the door, under the banner of Hayata Zenjiro's brother. The old man behind the door panel changed his expression instantly, and immediately opened the courtyard door with joy.
"Come in, please! The last time Hayata Lieutenant Commander came here was half a month ago. I didn't expect that he still remembered that today is Miss Yukiko's birthday!" The courtyard door was opened, and the person who walked out was indeed an old man. The old man, who had no doubts about Tang Cheng's identity, sideways greeted Tang Cheng to come in, while not forgetting to talk about the situation of Zenjiro Hayata's brother coming here. Tang Cheng remained calm and just silently followed the old man inside while looking around at the situation in the yard.
Like most Japanese residences, the courtyard where Tang Cheng is currently located is not large in area, but it is decorated in a Japanese style. In the corner of the courtyard, there are several bamboos that are rare in Shanghai. "Lieutenant Colonel has a mission and cannot go out. I happen to be on vacation today, so Lieutenant Colonel arranged for me to deliver the gift. There is also one more thing that needs to be explained to Mr. Hayata in person!" Entering the main room, Tang Cheng did not see another maid or an old woman. I had no choice but to use the excuse I had planned, planning to stay here and wait for Zenjiro Hayata to show up.
The old man was just a servant, so of course he couldn't make the decision. After delivering tea to Tang Cheng, the old man went to the back to ask the old woman. After a while, the old man came back from behind. When Zenjiro Hayata was not here, the old Japanese woman who took care of the children took charge of everything in the yard. "I've called Mr. and said he'll be back in a minute!" The old man returned to the main room and sat with Tang Cheng, chatting with Tang Cheng to kill time.
At this moment, Tang Cheng was pretending to be a colleague of Hayata Zenjiro's brother at the Military Police Headquarters. Before borrowing this identity, Tang Cheng had already done repeated deductions, so he was not worried at all that Hayata Zenjiro would call his brother to verify. Zenjiro Hayata's brother was sent to the New Asia Hotel to train Ma Yong and the other traitors. This was supposed to be a secret mission. Since it was a secret mission, Tang Cheng deduced that the people inside the Xinya Hotel would not be allowed to contact the outside world at any time, otherwise the secrets might be leaked.
Now it seems that Tang Cheng made the right bet. At least the old man sitting with him did not show any guard against Tang Cheng. Half an hour passed quickly, and the doorbell on the courtyard door rang again, and the old man immediately stood up. "It should be Mr. Hayata who is back. Only he can ring the doorbell long and short like this." As he spoke, the old man stood up and walked out of the main room to open the courtyard door. Tang Cheng did not get up. He was pretending to be an officer from the Military Police Headquarters. If he could not maintain the reserve and dignity of an officer, his secret would be exposed.
If he hadn't received the call from the old woman, Hayata Zenjiro shouldn't have come back so early today. Knowing that his brother who had a secret mission sent someone to deliver the child's birthday gift, Hayata Zenjiro hurried back to his residence. "You are..." Hayata Zenjiro put down his umbrella and entered the main room, but suddenly found Tang Cheng who had just taken off the hood of his raincoat and looked at him strangely. He tried hard to recall but could not remember whether he had seen this person before. The purpose of Tang Cheng coming here was to deal with Zenjiro Hayata. The reason why he stayed in the main house and did not take any action just now was because he was worried that Zenjiro Hayata would show up with his bodyguards.
At this moment, seeing that Zenjiro Hayata had just returned alone and had been sitting in the main room for more than half an hour, he did not intend to waste time here anymore. There was a soft sound of "Poof!", and Tang Chao suddenly raised his right hand and was hit by a flash of gunfire. After he had just stepped across the threshold, Hayata Zenjiro's body went limp, and he suddenly fell limp at the door of the main house. Before the old man's helper who was following Zenjiro Hayata had time to react, Tang Cheng turned the muzzle of the gun in his hand and fired again, killing the old man's helper at the door.
Like a leopard in Tangcheng who succeeded in shooting continuously, he ran from the seat to the door, reached out and dragged the two corpses into the main room. After Tang Cheng presented the two corpses as if they had been tortured and interrogated, the blood stains at the door of the main house had long been washed away by the rain. Hayata Zenjiro, who lives in a residential house in Hongkou District, is not next to the New Asia Hotel, but Hayata Zenjiro's brother, who is an intelligence officer, is the link between the two things. This is why Tangcheng will find him first. The reason why I joined Hayata Zenjiro.
After setting up the scene, Tang Cheng did not continue to shoot the remaining helper and the old woman taking care of the child. He needed time to rush to Tang Cheng at the New Asia Hotel, but only knocked them unconscious after the child fell asleep. Zenjiro Hayata drove back, which happened to provide Tang Cheng with convenience. Taking Zenjiro Hayata's business card and a box of seafood sushi made by the helper, Tang Cheng drove to New Asia Hotel. The old woman and the helper who were knocked unconscious by Tang Cheng would not wake up for at least half an hour, but it only took Tang Cheng a quarter of an hour to drive to the Xinya Hotel.
"I am an employee of Hayata Co., Ltd. The president's brother Hayata Nakasa is on business on the top floor. I followed the president's instructions to deliver sushi to Hayata Nakasa." Tang Cheng entered the Xinya Hotel still wearing a raincoat, but he did not directly After entering the elevator, I first looked for the lobby manager who was standing behind the service desk. "Please contact the top floor and ask Hayata Nakasa to send someone down to get the sushi." Tang Cheng, who spoke fluent Japanese with a Kyoto accent, did not arouse the suspicion of the lobby manager.
The call was answered, and the lobby manager quickly handed the phone to Tang Cheng, "Yes, the president sent me. When I left, the president was receiving guests. The president also had a note that he asked me to hand over to him. Lieutenant Colonel, it's something very important." Tang Cheng's voice also confused Hayata Junichiro on the other end of the phone. After a slight pause, Hayata Junichiro on the other end of the phone asked Tang Cheng to send the sushi directly to the top floor.
Things seem to have gone smoothly to this point, but Tang Cheng has not let down his guard. At least so far, he has not entered the top floor of the New Asia Hotel. There was only Tang Cheng in the elevator. He secretly adjusted his breathing and was ready to make a scene. As the elevator slowly rose to the top of the hotel, Tang Cheng in the elevator slowly unbuttoned his raincoat, with a fierce look in his eyes. The energy became more and more intense.
For this secret mission, the top floor of Xinya Hotel has been completely sealed off. The stairs leading to the downstairs are blocked by debris. The only way to go up and downstairs is to rely on the elevator, and there are also people guarding the outside of the elevator 24 hours a day. "I'm here to deliver something to Lieutenant Colonel Hayata!" The elevator door was opened by someone outside, and Tang Cheng stretched out his hand to let people outside see the food box and at the same time identify himself.
