Zhang Xiang has a round head and a round face, and is blessed with good fortune. He is also a good person. He has only been working in the logistics department for less than three years, and he gets along well with everyone above and below him. But no one would have thought that Fatty Zhang, who had always been a good person, would actually be a traitor insider who had been bribed by the Japanese with money early on. Zhang Xiang's defection to the Japanese happened before the Battle of Songhu. Zhang Xiang, who was corrupted and bribed by the Japanese with money, was just an inconspicuous little player in the Ministry of Military Affairs at the time.
No one could have imagined that in just three years, Zhang Xiang would already be in the logistics department and take the position of deputy section chief. Zhang Xiang was the first group of troops from the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs to go south to Chongqing. The office location of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs had already been selected, but the internal decoration of the office space and the addition of facilities were very demanding. Just like yesterday, when Zhang Xiang arrived at the temporary office, a large group of businessmen, large and small, immediately swarmed up. They all wanted to get the qualification to supply from Zhang Xiang.
It was still a busy morning, and when lunch time came, Zhang Xiang's office gradually became quiet. Zhang Xiang, who had declined the invitation to eat, looked a little impatient at the moment, but in fact, he was already happy in his heart. Under Zhang Xiang's desk, there is a box full of red envelopes and gift boxes sent by merchants. Zhang Xiang knew that these red envelope gift boxes would never contain just a few legal coins.
Naturally, Zhang Xiang would not keep all the benefits he received face to face. He would at least give a share to his boss and some to his subordinates, and the rest was his. It took a while for Zhang Xiang to count the money and goods sent by the merchants in the box. Satisfied, he left the office and went to have lunch. Zhang Xiang usually eats lunch nearby. Perhaps because he was in a good mood today, Zhang Xiang didn't go to his usual place to eat, but went to find a good restaurant on his own.
Zhang Xiang didn't know at this moment that from the moment he walked out of the office, he was already under surveillance and tracking by Tang Cheng and others. Seeing Zhang Xiang slowly entering the restaurant across the street, Tang Cheng immediately removed his hat and took it in his hands. Seeing his signal, three of the passers-by on the street immediately entered the restaurant. "Captain, how can you be so careful when dealing with a traitor?" Lao Fu, who was following Tang Cheng, was very puzzled.
After hearing this, Tang Cheng turned around and looked at Lao Fu, "This Zhang Xiang is just a small character. If you kill him, you can kill him. It's just that the heat behind him is very troublesome. What I mean above is that this Zhang Xiang must die, but it must be done like an accident." . Even if the person behind the scenes wants to find fault, there is no evidence that it is related to us and the military commander, so I am afraid it will be difficult to open his mouth!" The answer given by Tang Cheng made Lao Fu even more confused. In his opinion, killing someone is It's just killing people, why do you have to do so many tricks?
Tang Cheng had been waiting outside the restaurant. Fortunately, Zhang Xiang ate quickly. In about half an hour, Zhang Xiang, who was full of wine and food, was sent out by the restaurant waiter with a rosy face. Seeing Zhang Xiang's staggering steps, Tang Cheng immediately felt something in his heart and called Lao Fu beside him to explain in a low voice. Lao Fu nodded and left quickly, while Tang Cheng and others continued to follow Zhang Xiang, following him all the way east. Zhang Xiang has always had the habit of taking a nap, perhaps because he was in a good mood, but today Zhang Xiang did not return to his residence to take a nap.
"Captain, the target may have gone to the teahouse on the next street. A storyteller came to that teahouse. The target had been to that teahouse a few days ago." Seeing Zhang Xiang wandering around in boredom, Tang Cheng showed a look of boredom on his face. With a hint of helplessness, the two men left behind by Lao Fu saw something strange at this moment, and one of them immediately made a judgment. Sure enough, Zhang Xiang walked eastward along the street. After crossing the intersection, he immediately turned into the next street.
Tang Cheng, who had been following Zhang Xiang, could already see the Storytelling Water sign standing at the door of the teahouse when he stood at the street entrance. "You stay here and wait for Lao Fu to bring the people over. Then you take them to find me across from the teahouse." Tang Cheng once again left one person at the street entrance, and with the remaining team member, he immediately turned into the next street. . Zhang Jianghe asked that Zhang Xiang's death be like an accident, so Tangcheng was not in a hurry to take action. Anyway, the Military and Political Department had not completely moved south to Chongqing. Even if Zhang Xiang wanted to sell information to the Japanese, he might not have any important information on hand. .
Zhang Xiang, who turned into the next street, went to the teahouse to hear books. Tang Cheng did not enter the teahouse, but went directly to a street shop opposite the teahouse. With the police ID and 20 legal currency in his hand, Tang Cheng temporarily requisitioned this street shop as his office. "Don't be nervous. If you have customers coming to your door, just do your business and just treat us as guests." After Tang Cheng politely informed the owner, he sat in the chair brought by the owner and closed his eyes to relax, watching the movement in the teahouse opposite. , naturally someone from the tracking team is in charge.
Lao Fu quickly arrived here with his people, and after driving the store owner to the back of the store, Tang Cheng began to assign tasks to Lao Fu and the others. "Zhang Xiang is timid by nature, but he drank wine during lunch, so his reaction will be slower than usual. When he comes out of the teahouse later, he will be in charge of the group here at the intersection. Be sure to watch him clearly. After that, let’s set off firecrackers.” Tang Cheng drew a simple map on the white paper on the table with a pen, and then marked a location at the street entrance.
"Old Fu, you personally lead people to wait on the street. When you hear the sound of firecrackers, immediately lift the top cover of the sewer, and then prevent gravel on the left side of the top cover of the sewer. The task of the rest of you is to After the firecrackers went off, like ordinary passers-by, they dispersed and moved to the roadside, trying to force Zhang Xiang to the top of the sewer." Tang Cheng explained the task while marking the corresponding positions on the white paper so that he could Lao Fu and the others can understand.
Using the sewer to kill Zhang Xiang, the traitor, was a method that Tang Cheng suddenly thought of while standing at the street corner. Originally, Tangcheng would not use such crude methods, but Lao Fu brought more than 20 people. With so many people to assist, not to mention just one Zhang Xiang, even two more Zhang Xiang would definitely fall into the trap. After understanding the mission, Lao Fu and others left the street shop one after another. Only Tang Cheng was waiting in the shop alone. Time passed little by little, and Tang Cheng, who had been waiting for Zhang Xiang to come out of the teahouse, secretly let out a long sigh of relief.
Tang Cheng's plan actually still had many loopholes and shortcomings, but Tang Cheng didn't care at the moment, as long as Zhang Xiang's death looked like an accident. After leaving the teahouse, Zhang Xiang did not realize that the danger was approaching him. He walked back along the street and was about to return to the office to continue his afternoon work. But when he reached the intersection, he found that a family was picking up a bride. , a lot of people gathered around the street to watch the excitement.
Chinese people like to watch the excitement, so Zhang Xiang didn't think there was anything strange. He smelled of alcohol and even squeezed into the crowd, tiptoeing to watch the wedding scene. The tracking team members who had noticed the target's appearance immediately sent out a signal as planned, and the team members pretending to be picking up the bride lit up firecrackers. I don’t know why, but the lit firecrackers suddenly exploded everywhere. The passers-by who gathered at the street entrance to watch the excitement scattered to avoid the exploding firecrackers amidst laughter.
Zhang Xiang, who was squeezed in the crowd, tried hard to stand firm, but he didn't want to be moved to the street. In the crowd, some people began to pretend to fall down and cry. The cry immediately caused a commotion. Coupled with the exploding firecrackers, passers-by who were originally disapproving finally became really panicked. Zhang Xiang, who was moved to the street by the crowd, had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly felt that his feet were empty. One of his legs had already stepped on the air, and he stepped into the sewer opening with the top cover lifted.
Zhang Xiang, who was unsteady on his feet, naturally tilted his body and fell to one side. Coupled with the pushing and pushing of passers-by, Zhang Xiang, who was slow to react due to drunkenness, fell directly to the sewer entrance. There were quite a few people who fell to the ground at the intersection, so Zhang Xiang's fall did not attract the attention of passers-by at first. It was only after the sound of firecrackers stopped that people at the scene discovered that this person had fallen to the sewer. The middle-aged man's mouth was filled with a large pool of blood.
"He's dead! He's fallen to death!" A woman who saw blood stains suddenly pointed at Zhang Xiang who fell on the ground and screamed. The street that had just calmed down the commotion suddenly became chaotic again. After just a few minutes, all that was left in the originally crowded street was the mess on the ground, the scraps of paper left by the explosion of firecrackers, and of course Zhang Xiang, who was still alive and dead. Then the police came over. The police called many people to ask about what happened, but none of them came up with any valuable clues. In the end, they had no choice but to send Zhang Xiang, who was not breathing much, to the hospital.
"Good! This matter was handled very well! It looks like an accident. It not only warns the people behind it, but also prevents them from finding a reason to cause trouble!" Zhang Jianghe, who received the news, praised Tang Cheng fiercely. , In the same way, Zhang Jianghe was naturally praised by the military command headquarters. Tang Cheng did not take Zhang Jianghe's praise calmly. On the contrary, because of Bai Zhanshan's presence, Tang Cheng had to pretend to know nothing.
"Uncle, what are you talking about?" In front of Bai Zhanshan, Tang Cheng pretended to be innocent. "I am following this Zhang Xiang on the second day. I originally planned to wait until dark before taking action. I have already found someone to prepare medicine. How could I have imagined that this Zhang Xiang would actually fall to his death at the sewer entrance? , all my efforts have been wasted!" Tang Cheng spread his hands, saying that Zhang Xiang's death was really an accident and had nothing to do with him.
