After Tang Cheng climbed up the wall, he realized that he had thought wrong. From the outside, there was only one foreign-style building in the yard. There are actually other buildings behind the bungalow, and Tang Cheng is looking at it now, and it seems that there are other courtyards connected to the back of this courtyard. This is bad! Tang Cheng groaned in his heart that something was wrong. Without accurate information, it would be difficult for him to find the target's location here. The faint sound of footsteps in the distance interrupted Tang Cheng's thoughts. He quickly lowered his figure and squatted quietly on the wall, watching from a high position as the patrolling Japanese soldiers walked past the kitchen door.
There were three patrolling soldiers that Tang Cheng saw. Although Tang Cheng had a way to kill them neatly, Tang Cheng was not sure that the three patrolling Japanese soldiers would know the exact location of the target. Tang Cheng, who was secretly scratching his head, did not waste much time. After the patrolling soldiers left, he climbed to the left along the wall and onto the roof. He planned to explore the bungalow at his feet from top to bottom.
The bungalow at the foot of Tangcheng has a total of three floors. According to previous inferences, Tangcheng slowly slid down from the roof along the string, and then quietly slid down to the outer balcony of a room on the third floor. Western-style bungalows generally have this kind of external balcony, also called a terrace. This kind of external balcony is usually outside the master bedroom or study room. After his feet landed on the ground, Tang Cheng immediately retracted his flying claws, then lowered his body and squatted in front of the outer balcony and the French door of the room. Through the glass on the French door, he looked into the room behind the door.
Tangcheng was lucky. There happened to be a study room behind the French door. There was absolutely no one in the study room at this time. After making sure that no one was in the study behind the door, Tang Cheng took out a glass knife from his equipment bag and quickly removed a piece of glass from above the door handle. The study room was not small in size, and the bookshelves were filled with various books. However, Tang Cheng had no intention of checking them at the moment. After entering the study room, he just quickly moved to the door of the study room.
As Tang Cheng expected, there was a corridor outside the study. At this time, almost everyone was still asleep. Tang Cheng, who opened the study door, did not have to worry about anyone appearing in the corridor. Tang Cheng's search speed was not slow. He quickly searched the rooms on the third floor, but unfortunately he did not find the bedrooms. Isn't it here? Tang Cheng, who didn't find a bedroom on the third floor, looked suspicious. He had already reached the stairs and was about to go down to the second floor when he suddenly stopped.
Tang Cheng, who had a bad start, suddenly stopped. It wasn't that he had made a discovery, but because of the rooms on the third floor, Tang Cheng suddenly felt that he had missed some important information. The rooms on the third floor have been quickly searched by Tang Cheng. Except for the study room he sneaked into, the other rooms on the third floor look more like offices. Tang Cheng, who stopped at the top of the stairs, immediately turned around and went back. He planned to search these rooms again to see if he could make any new discoveries.
Tang Cheng, who had already activated the triple eyepiece skill, could see everything in these rooms clearly like daytime without turning on the lights. He only had to lower his voice and quickly pried open all the drawers in one of the rooms. Although he did not make any valuable discoveries, some of the things he found in the drawers proved his suspicions just now. All these materials and documents written in Japanese can only explain one thing. This is indeed an office point for the Japanese army in Shanghai to handle and record concession affairs.
There were too many things found in Tangcheng, and the value was not high, so he could only pick and choose, first picking up the important ones and packing some, and finally returned to the study room. There was such a study room in the office. Tang Cheng expected that the person who had the right to own such a study room would definitely not be a minor character. The desk and bookshelf in the study room were carefully inspected by Tang Cheng. Wanting to find clues, he even quickly browsed through all the various books on the bookshelf, but found nothing.
Could it be that I thought wrong? Tang Cheng, who had questions in his mind, was unwilling to give in. He took out his short knife from his equipment bag and carefully knocked on all four walls of the study room with the handle, but still found nothing. Tang Cheng checked the wall of the study room, suspecting that there might be a safe hidden in the wall of the study room, but the result of the inspection made Tang Cheng a little frustrated. Still unwilling to give up, he pried open the desk in the study room, only to find a few blank military police headquarters warrants.
Fortunately, this trip is not in vain! These blank warrants, which have been stamped with the military police headquarters' seal, are a consolation for the busy life in Tangcheng. This thing is useless to ordinary people, but if it is given to Hans or those in the National Salvation Army, this thing can play a big role. The patrol team appeared outside the small building again. At this time, Tang Cheng had already gone down the stairs to the second floor of the small building. Unlike before, Tang Cheng found that at least three of the rooms on the second floor were occupied.
Tang Cheng put his ear against the door panel and listened one by one. The sounds of snoring and teeth grinding in the room made Tang Cheng quickly determine that there were people in three of the rooms. However, the sounds heard in Tangcheng all proved that there were at least two people in each of these occupied rooms. Tang Cheng's target was a Japanese major general. As a major general, how could he sleep in the same room with other people? Tang Cheng, who didn't find his target, quietly followed the original path back upstairs, and then climbed to the roof from the outer balcony of the study.
There was less than an hour left before dawn. If Hans were here, he would immediately persuade Tang Cheng to give up the operation. Although during the period before dawn, whether you are awake or asleep, your spirit is the most relaxed. But once Tangcheng is discovered or forced to make a move because of the bright sky, the tightly protected place will immediately become the center of chaos. It will be difficult for Tangcheng itself to escape from here. Escape safely.
Tang Cheng naturally has no determination to die for his country, but he managed to sneak in here with great difficulty, so naturally he will not give up this operation easily. Tang Cheng, who was squatting on the roof under the cover of night, thought to himself, then quickly slid down the west side of the roof of the bungalow, paused briefly by the wall, and quickly disappeared into the night. After confirming that the target was not in this bungalow, the most suspicious thing was another building behind the bungalow. Tang Cheng, who didn't want to give up this opportunity, planned to go and investigate.
Tang Cheng was lucky. After watching a patrol slowly disappear into the night, Tang Cheng rushed out of the shadows and found that the window facing him was cracked open. The window was not plugged in from the inside, which made it easier for Tang Cheng to sneak in. Tang Cheng, who was standing under the window, slowly looked into the room. After confirming that it was also an empty room, Tang Cheng didn't think much and just stretched out his hand to open the window. Climb in quickly. The empty room looked a little empty. Seeing the rows of chairs in the room, Tang Cheng guessed that this room might be a small conference room.
Worried about running out of time, Tang Cheng quickly checked the other rooms on the first floor, but found no useful information. Do we really have to give up action? Tang Cheng, who quickly searched the entire small building, was secretly anxious. At this moment, a burst of shouting suddenly came from outside the small building. Tang Cheng took a few hurried steps and carefully leaned his body sideways against the window so that he could see what was going on outside through the window. Two Japanese soldiers on patrol were running quickly past the small building, and it was the two of them who shouted.
Tang Cheng's heart moved, and he immediately reached out to the window and opened it a crack. The shouts outside immediately reached Tang Cheng's ears clearly. Based on the shouts from the patrolling soldiers outside, Tang Cheng learned that he was not the only one to sneak in here tonight. It was just that the other people who had sneaked in were unlucky and were discovered by the patrolling soldiers. In addition, Tang Cheng didn't have time to think carefully about who could be sneaking here. He just climbed up the roof quickly along the rope and began to observe the surrounding movements.
Along with the shouts of the patrolling soldiers, people appeared one after another in the originally silent courtyard, and lights were turned on in many rooms. While everyone was moving quickly towards the location where the shouts came from, Tang Cheng, who was lying on the roof, unexpectedly discovered that a Japanese officer not far away was walking quickly with several Japanese soldiers around him. Run towards the row of bungalows in the northeast corner of the yard. Tang Cheng had discovered that row of bungalows before, but at that time he felt that as a Japanese major general, the target would not live in that kind of place.
But now, after seeing this scene, Tang Cheng had different ideas. Could the Japanese be playing the dark trick under the lights? Hidden on the roof, Tang Cheng's eyes flickered. Although he felt that his idea sounded unreasonable, according to the Japanese way of doing things, it was not impossible. While everyone in the yard was attracted to other directions, Tang Cheng, who was hiding on the roof, quickly rappelled down, then suddenly exploded, using all his strength, he quickly ran towards the row of bungalows in the northeast.
Tang Cheng was running very fast at the moment, and under the cover of night, he soon appeared only ten meters away from the row of bungalows. There was only a crude-looking hedgerow in front of Tang Cheng. If it had been daytime, Tang Cheng, who was squatting on one knee behind the hedgerow, might have been exposed long ago. But it's not bright yet, and the Tangcheng hidden here will not be exposed immediately.
Through the gap in the hedgerow in front of him, Tang Cheng, who was kneeling on one knee, secretly observed the row of bungalows more than ten meters away, especially the room where the Japanese officer entered just now. There are a total of six bungalows in this row. All the lights are on now, but the doors and windows are closed. Tang Cheng has no way to see what is going on in the rooms. Tang Cheng was determined to move forward, preferably outside the door of the bungalow, but he had no way to guarantee that he would not be discovered by the enemy who suddenly appeared as he continued to move forward.
Just when Tang Cheng was secretly anxious, a sudden "Boom!" came from the direction behind him, and there was an explosion. Tang Cheng quickly looked back, but did not see the fire that burst out during the explosion. Judging from the vibration of the ground beneath his feet, Tang Cheng judged that the location of the explosion was at least 30 meters away from him. The explosion was so sudden that the row of bungalows with closed doors and windows finally reacted. In the second bungalow from the left, someone suddenly came out and was caught by Tang Cheng.
