With Hans' full help, Tang Cheng quickly got what he wanted. Before bidding farewell to Hans, Tang Cheng also reminded the other party that Hans should quickly arrange for his family members who were temporarily living in the south to go north immediately. "Hans, my stay in Shanghai may not be very long. If you still need me to take care of your family, arrange for them to come north to Shanghai immediately. If everything goes well, maybe I can leave Shanghai next week!"
Tang Cheng did not inform Hans of the time of his action, but Hans had already guessed the specific time of Tang Cheng's action from Tang Cheng's words just now. After opening his arms and giving Tang Cheng a firm hug, Hans watched Tang Cheng leave. Although he knew that Tang Cheng was extremely skilled, he also knew that Tang Cheng's trip was full of dangers and he would probably leave without returning. Before Tang Cheng left, he specially left an address for Hans. That was the address of the Tang family in Chongqing.
After leaving the restaurant, Tang Cheng went to Sanyuan Bookstore again, but he was not seeking help from the Shanghai underground party organization, but to remind the underground party. "Old Huang, inform your superiors that within a week from now, it is best to evacuate your people in Hongkou District first! I don't want my next actions to affect their safety by then!" Like Hans, Tang Cheng also did not disclose the specific time and content of the operation to Huang Sanyuan.
However, Tang Cheng's serious appearance still scared Huang Sanyuan, because Tang Cheng had already made many big moves in Shanghai. But no matter how Huang Sanyuan pressed, Tang Cheng did not continue the topic, "Old Huang, if I were you, I would not continue to ask, because it is impossible for me to tell you the time and purpose of the action! In short, you remember , if you don’t want your people to die in vain, it’s best to transfer them out of Hongkou District as soon as possible.”
Tang Cheng didn't look like he was joking, so Huang Sanyuan didn't dare to neglect him. After Tang Cheng left the bookstore, Huang Sanyuan immediately called the third sister and repeated Tang Cheng's original words to the third sister on the phone. sister. "Then did he mention a specific goal?" The third sister on the other end of the phone was a little impatient. Although she knew that Tang came to remind Huang Sanyuan out of good intentions, the third sister could not help but feel angry and worried about Tang Cheng. His actions will pose a threat to Shanghai’s underground party organizations.
Tang Cheng, who has left the concession, has returned to Hongkou District in Shanghai. Relying on his impeccable disguise and his identity as a Japanese expatriate, Tang Cheng had already found a job in Hongkou District a day ago. Although the salary of this job is very small, hiring Tang Cheng's old man can provide Tang Cheng with a place to live, and it is also a separate residence. Specifically, the job Tang Cheng found was to look after houses for others.
A Japanese businessman living in Hongkou District wanted his family to return to Japan because of something else. However, the Japanese businessman did not want to sell or rent his residence in Hongkou District, so he wanted to find someone to help take care of his residence. Tang Cheng happened to meet this Japanese businessman who was about to leave Shanghai. Relying on his fluent Japanese and expat status, plus Tang Cheng's slightly immature and reassuring appearance, he successfully got the job. .
Today is the day that the Japanese businessman left Shanghai with his family. From today on, Tang Cheng will be the temporary owner of this small courtyard. "Oda-kun, I'll leave this yard to you! I hope that when I come back to Shanghai, everything here will be the same as before!" Before getting in the car, the fat-looking Japanese businessman did not forget to warn Tang Cheng. "I am friends with Second Lieutenant Kuroi of the patrol team. I have told him that I will come over and take a look from time to time during patrol."
The last words of the Japanese businessman were obviously a reminder to Tangcheng, but Tangcheng didn't care about the bullshit patrol team and the military police second lieutenant named Kuroi. Anyway, he came to Hongkou District to cause trouble. Tang Cheng, who was standing at the door, pretended to smile. After watching the businessman's family drive away, Tang Cheng immediately turned around and entered the yard. In order to hide himself better, Tang Cheng also deliberately followed Japanese etiquette and visited his neighbors with some snacks.
Everything Tang did was impeccable, and coupled with his politeness and seemingly impeccable manners, he quickly gained acceptance from his neighbors. Although Tang Cheng gained acceptance and recognition from his neighbors, he also found that things seemed to be starting to deviate from his expectations. The place where he lived was too far away from the Officers Club, and it was impossible for him to leave his residence during the day. Watch the Officers Club.
And even if you can leave your residence and travel far, you still have to be careful of the gendarmerie patrols that can be seen everywhere, especially the gendarmerie second lieutenant named Kuroi who suddenly comes to your door. After An Xin stayed at his residence for a day, Tang Cheng had no choice but to schedule his outing in the evening. He believed that with his own skills and the cover of the night, he should be able to get close to the officers' club. Time passed like this day by day. During the day, Tang Cheng concentrated on staying in the small courtyard, deducing the action steps while trying his best to deal with the surrounding neighbors and Second Lieutenant Kuroi who appeared every day.
A week passed quickly, and Tang Cheng finally learned from Hans via phone that the Japanese officers who had withdrawn from the front line had come to Shanghai to rest. According to the arrangements of the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters, two days later it will be time for these frontline officers to gather at the Officers Club for a festive banquet. This meant that he only had the last two days left to prepare. Tang Cheng was not surprised but overjoyed because he had already made all preparations for action.
After lunch on the third day, Tang Cheng immediately left the courtyard after dealing with Second Lieutenant Kuroi who came to check on the situation. Tang Cheng left the small courtyard carrying a basket and looked like he was going to buy groceries. However, when he emerged from a small alley, he had already changed his clothes and even his face was disguised. The officer's club's celebration banquet was held after dark. At this time, the officer's club was not yet strict in interrogation. Tang Cheng planned to take advantage of this time to sneak into the officer's club first.
According to the results of his observations over the past few nights, Tang Cheng first walked half a circle around the officers' club, then climbed over the fence outside the club, quickly crossed the lawn and rushed into a small door on the east side of the club. This small door on the east side of the officers' club is actually an abandoned power distribution room, which is now used to store some sundries. When Tang Cheng came here to observe the club a few nights ago, he had ventured into it, so he knew that there was a small ventilation window that could lead to the inside of the club.
Carefully stepping on an empty box, Tang Cheng followed the ventilation window and quickly entered the club. The banquet started in the evening, so it was still the club's preparation time. Most of the club's staff were helping in the kitchen. Tang Cheng, who got out of the ventilation window, looked a little ashamed, but he didn't care about it. He just quickly went up the stairs to a room on the second floor of the club.
Like the izakayas that Tang Cheng has been to, most of the rooms on the second floor of the club are decorated in a Japanese style with tatami mats and wooden doors, but the room Tang Cheng entered is in a Western style. Tang Cheng, who lowered his head to look at his watch, immediately put on the urban combat attire drawn from the system in this room, and then sat cross-legged in the narrow corner between the two sofas, waiting for night to fall.
As time passed, no one went upstairs to check and decorate the room, but no one found Tang Cheng hiding in the room on the second floor. As night fell, Tang Cheng, who had been hiding everywhere and hiding his whereabouts, finally began to take out weapons from his equipment bag and carefully check the firearms and ammunition. After dark, the officers' club was brightly lit, and one car after another appeared in the parking area outside the club. Those who got out of the cars were either officers in straight military uniforms or high-profile missions in the Japanese-occupied areas.
Tang Cheng, who had made all preparations for action, did not act immediately. Instead, he waited quietly on the second floor, listening carefully to what was going on outside through the cracked door. It wasn't until he finally heard someone starting to deliver a speech in the banquet hall downstairs that Thomson's Tangcheng was hung on the gun belt on his chest, and then he quickly came out of the room. Tang Cheng, whose face was covered with a skull mask, was seen by a waiter from a club just after he came out of the room.
But before the club waiter could scream, Tang Cheng raised a silenced pistol and shot him in the head. The club waiter standing at the top of the stairs fell on his back, and his body rolled down the stairs directly to the first floor, immediately attracting the attention of everyone in the banquet hall on the first floor. "Are you okay? I was sent by God to give you a gift!" Following Tang Cheng's shout, Tang Cheng appeared at the top of the stairs, already raising Tom with his gun belt towards the banquet hall below. Xun.
"Ta-ta-ta...ta-ta-ta..." Thomson, who had strong firepower, instantly spit out a tongue of fire, spraying a large amount of blood mist into the banquet hall under the stairs. Tang Cheng, who had a strong arm, controlled Thomson's gun, which kept jumping from time to time, and fired all the bullets spitting out of the barrel into the crowd gathered in the banquet hall. The first ones to bear the gunfire were the group of Japanese officers in the banquet hall wearing straight military uniforms. At this moment, they were only wearing empty holsters and command knives, and they had no way to fight back.
Thomson's hundred rounds of bullets in the drum were quickly fired by Tang Cheng, but he did not move immediately. He just stood there and did not move. After quickly changing the drum, he continued to face the banquet hall under the stairs. Continue to shoot. In just ten seconds, the banquet hall, which was originally full of singing, laughing and dancing, was already covered in blood. Especially the guests who rushed to the door in a hurry to escape fell to the gunfire one after another.
