The document that Tang Cheng took out at this moment was the American passport that Hans helped get. This was a concession, and many gangsters living in the concession knew that people with such foreign passports should not be messed with. Among the men in short shirts surrounding Tang Cheng at this moment, some of them had seen the American passport held in Tang Cheng's hand. Let alone gangsters like them, even the concession patrol would not dare to provoke Tang Cheng.

The other party didn't dare to take action, but Tang Cheng didn't want to settle the matter. In front of these men in short shirts, Tang Cheng kicked Wang San several times until Wang San couldn't hold on anymore and pretended to be faint. Tang Cheng then Finally stopped. There was a fight on the street. Many people stood watching from a distance, and some good-hearted people called the police. The concession patrol officers who were patrolling on foot along the street rushed over immediately. However, after seeing the men in short shirts, the two concession patrol officers who rushed over slowed down.

Patrol officers maintain security in the concession, but their salaries are not high, so many concession patrol officers have private connections with gangs. They rely on shady transactions with gangs in the concession to obtain extra money. The two concession patrol officers who rushed here obviously recognized these men in short shirts and mistakenly thought they were gangsters lecturing them, so they deliberately slowed down.

"Do you want it private or public?" Tang Cheng glanced at the two concession patrols who were slowing down with a half-smile, and glared directly at the leader of the man in a short shirt. The man in a short shirt, who was stared at by Tang Cheng, suppressed the anger in his heart and forced a smile to Tang Cheng. He kept swinging his hands across his chest and kept saying "" Say no.

Tang Cheng also knew that too much was too much, so after the other party gave in, Tang Cheng carried his own things, squeezed away these men in short shirts, and left without looking back. "Don't ask! It's unlucky for us brothers today. We met someone we can't afford to offend!" Facing the inquiries from the two concession patrol officers, the leader of the man in a short-shirt quietly stuffed a few banknotes in his hand and answered hesitantly. In one sentence, he and several companions carried Wang San away.

Tang Cheng originally thought this was just a small incident, but he didn't expect that when he put his things back in the apartment building and came out again, there were people dressed as gangsters following him. Come again! Tang Cheng, who was immediately aware of it, became a little angry. He simply stopped on the street, turned around, and faced the two men in short shirts who were following him secretly. It seems that they did not expect that Tang Cheng would come out like this. The two men in short shirts who were discovered also stopped subconsciously. The two sides stood still and looked at each other.

Tang Cheng stood still, and the two men in short shirts who were parked more than ten meters away were also motionless. The two sides remained in a stalemate for about a minute, and then Tang Cheng, who felt bored in his heart, turned and left. But he didn't expect that when he turned around and raised his legs, the two people standing still behind him followed him again. Tang Cheng was helpless and had to change his plan and go to Hans' restaurant. After telling Hans what happened just now, Hans laughed so hard that he kept joking about Tangcheng.

"You usually seem to be a smart person, how could you be forced into this by two gangsters?" After making fun of Tangcheng, Hans called the two waiters in the restaurant, and after whispering, The two people nodded and left with smiles on their faces. "Okay! I'll help you get rid of those two annoying flies! I just have time now, so let's talk about the batch of gold from the Military Police Headquarters! I just praised you as a smart person, so you can Stop beating around the bush with me!"

Hans once again mentioned the batch of gold in the underground warehouse of the Military Police Headquarters. Tangcheng knew that Hans must have heard about the gold through an insider in Hongkou District. After just thinking about it for a moment, Tang Cheng nodded lightly at Hans, "If you are talking about the gold in the underground warehouse of the Military Police Headquarters, I want to say that I did not take the gold, but I do know something related to gold. Things." Tang Cheng's words made Hans's eyes light up, and he continued to ask about the gold with an eager expression.

Hans is a profiteer who can't afford to be too early. The military police headquarters building partially collapsed due to the explosion, which did not originally attract his attention. However, the appearance of Tangcheng in Shanghai made Hans connect this matter with the appearance of Tangcheng, so he asked insiders in Hongkou District to inquire about relevant information. Although the disappearance of the gold from the Military Police Headquarters was strictly controlled by the Military Police Headquarters, the number of people involved in clearing the ruins could not be resisted, so the news was still spread to a small area.

Hans had more than one insider in Hongkou District, so Hans quickly learned about the disappearance of Gold. Recall that after the Gendarmerie Headquarters building collapsed, instead of immediately searching for the murderer, the Gendarmerie Headquarters cordoned off the area where the Gendarmerie Headquarters building was located, and mobilized a large number of gendarmerie to participate in the work of clearing the rubble. After all, Hans was an intelligence expert. After carefully analyzing the relevant information at hand, he guessed that the missing gold from the Military Police Headquarters building should be related to the big explosion.

The first two times Tang Cheng came to Shanghai, he turned Hongkou District upside down. Although Tang Cheng did not clearly explain the purpose of coming to Shanghai this time, Hans vaguely felt that the explosion at the Military Police Headquarters building had something to do with Tang Cheng. Not open relationship. Now that he had finally come to Tangcheng to admit it, Hans really wanted to know where the gold in the Military Police Headquarters building had gone. That was a full 2 ​​tons of gold!

In front of Hans, Tang Cheng admitted that the big explosion in the military police headquarters building was related to him. But no matter how Hans asked about the whereabouts of the gold, Tang Cheng remained tight-lipped and became anxious when asked. Tang Cheng just said that he did not take the gold. "Don't ask anymore! I dare to swear in front of you now that I never took that gold. If I lie to you, I will never be able to leave Shanghai!" Tang Cheng looked very serious at this moment. But in fact, Tang Cheng was secretly laughing in his heart.

What Tang Cheng told Hans was that he did not take the gold. Strictly speaking, this did not count as deceiving Hans, because Tang Cheng only transferred the gold from the underground warehouse of the Military Police Headquarters to the abandoned sewer. inside. That batch of gold has never left Hongkou District from the beginning to now. Naturally, Tang Cheng has never really owned the gold, and it can also be said that he has not taken the gold.

Looking at Tang Cheng's expression at this moment, it didn't look like he was faking it. According to his understanding of Tang Cheng, Hans knew that Tang Cheng liked to be straightforward. After a slight hesitation, Hans actually believed Tang Cheng. The changing expressions on Hans's face made Tang Cheng laugh secretly. He could have told Hans the truth, but he had already decided to hand over the batch of gold to the Shanghai underground party. If he told Hans again, this would It's troublesome.

"Tang, I heard that the Military Police Headquarters is heavily guarded. How did you get in? Those Japanese materials you gave me last time were probably the ones you brought out from the Military Police Headquarters, right?" Hans stopped asking about the whereabouts of the gold. , but suddenly the conversation changed and he asked Tang Cheng about the Military Police Headquarters. Tang Cheng couldn't guess Hans' purpose, so he just grunted and casually responded with a few words. After being questioned continuously by Hans, Tang Cheng could only tell the story of how he sneaked into the military police headquarters that night.

"It was a coincidence that day. I had no intention of going to the Gendarmerie Headquarters, but suddenly I discovered that in the street next door to the Gendarmerie Headquarters building, someone had a conflict with the patrolling Gendarmerie in the street. I heard gunshots and rushed over to see There was a lot of excitement, and I found that the military police on duty guarding the Military Police Headquarters Building also rushed over. I thought at that time that there must be insufficient manpower at the Military Police Headquarters Building, so I got a military uniform and took the opportunity to sneak in."

What Tang Cheng said to Hans at this moment was naturally not the truth. Anyway, Hans was not present at the time. No matter what Tang Cheng said, Hans had no way to refute it. "Tang, I have to say, you are really brave!" After listening to Tang Cheng's story, Hans gave Tang Cheng a thumbs up. "I told the insider in Hongkou District that many people were killed or injured in the explosion that day in the military police headquarters building. I heard that the highest-ranking officer was a colonel."

A colonel officer is actually nothing! When Tang Cheng heard this, he secretly curled his lips in his heart. "I came to Shanghai this time specifically for the Military Police Headquarters and the Special High School Course! The Juntong Shanghai Station was encircled and suppressed many times by the Special High School Course and the Military Police Headquarters, causing heavy losses, so the Military Unification Headquarters sent me to Shanghai to carry out revenge! The explosion at the Gendarmerie Headquarters building is just an appetizer, my next goal is the extra-high school course!"

As long as Tang Cheng didn't ask about the whereabouts of the gold, there was nothing else that Tang Cheng needed to hide from Hans. Moreover, Hans was a cunning man. Even if Tang Cheng didn't tell him, Hans could guess Tang Cheng's purpose of coming to Shanghai. Sure enough, after hearing Tang Cheng reveal the purpose of Shanghai, Hans didn't see any other expression on his face. He just reached out and rubbed his chin, "The extra-high-level class is not easy to deal with!"

"I know that the Special High School Class is difficult to deal with! I don't even think about taking the blame for them. I just want to kill a few of the brains of the Special High School Class first. At least I can deal with the Military Command Headquarters!" How? Tang Cheng didn't have a complete plan in mind for the extra-high school courses. All he could do now was wait for the opportunity.

"I can arrange for someone to help you find out some information about the extra-high-level courses, but you still need to complete the specific operations yourself!" Hans said, with meaningful meaning in his eyes. Tang Cheng nodded upon hearing this. Of course he knew what the specific operations in Hans' words meant. For Tang Cheng, he preferred specific actions rather than collecting and analyzing intelligence.
