According to the photo provided by Hans, Tang Cheng looked at the Portuguese man from a distance and left the building in a car. Seeing the target leaving, Tang Cheng did not follow him, but continued to observe the situation in this street. Perhaps because it was time for dinner, none of the suspicious people that Tang Cheng saw in the afternoon appeared on the street at this moment. Tang Cheng's heart moved, and he immediately followed a postman and quickly moved to the door of the store very close to the building.
For some unknown reason, the neon sign at the door of this store close to the Portuguese Trading Company did not light up. Covered by the neon signs at the door of other stores, the door of this store seemed a little dim. Tangcheng looked around and saw that there were not many people passing by on the street, and no one seemed to be paying attention here. Secretly activating his light body skill, he immediately threw his flying claws, and then with the help of the pull of the string under the flying claws, he climbed up from the door of the store to the roof of the store in the blink of an eye.
Tang Cheng climbed up the roof very quickly. The passers-by who approached here just felt that their eyes were blurred, and Tang Cheng disappeared. The place where Tang Cheng stood before was dimly lit, and people walking in this street would not deliberately notice him. Therefore, Tang Cheng disappeared inexplicably, but it did not attract the attention of passers-by on the street. Tang Cheng, who climbed onto the roof of the shop, did not immediately move his position, but instead lowered his figure in place.
Tang Cheng crouched on the spot for a while, and when he saw that no one in the streets below noticed his climbing move, he slowly stood up and retreated to the other side of the roof. Stepping on the tiles under his feet, Tang Cheng slowly moved forward until he could clearly see the situation in the room on the second floor of the building next to him. The room Tang Cheng saw at the moment was at least twenty meters away from him. Although there were no lights on in that room, Tang Cheng's triple eyepiece skill deliberately ignored the light environment.
The room that Tang Cheng saw was obviously a room for storing sundries, because through the window, he could only see some stacked tables and chairs, and a lot of dust had accumulated on those tables and chairs. Seeing the dust on the tables and chairs, Tang Cheng was secretly happy because it was obvious that few people would come in and out of such a room. The Tang Dynasty on the roof slowly moved to the edge of the roof ridge, and moving further forward, it was the backyard of the Portuguese trading house.
Tang Cheng originally thought that the Portuguese trading house did not have a backyard, but when he squatted on the edge of the roof, he realized that he had thought wrong. Not only did the Portuguese trading house have a backyard, but this cunning Portuguese actually blocked the end of the alley outside the backyard near the street. When Tang Cheng checked the terrain in the afternoon, he did not find the blocked lane entrance. Now the truth is finally revealed.
As expected in Tangcheng, there were not only mobile sentries patrolling back and forth in the backyard of the Portuguese trading house, but there were also people in the house, paying attention to what was going on in the backyard. Under the cover of night, Tang Cheng, who already had an idea in mind, slowly came down from the roof. Tiptoeing gently, Tang Cheng pressed against the wall of the alley and quickly moved to the entrance to the backyard of the Portuguese trading house. After slowly peeking out from outside the iron gate and taking a few glances, Tang Cheng retracted his body and began to retreat.
Someone was smoking in the yard. Although Tang Cheng didn't see where the smoker was just now, he could already smell the smoke. Tang Cheng slowly stepped back, climbed up the wall with his hands and stuck his head out. In just a few breaths, he had already found the source of the cigarette smell. The flickering cigarette butts in the east corner of the backyard made Tang Cheng quickly locate the smoker. He secretly estimated the distance between himself and the smoker, and Tang Cheng climbed up the wall without any hesitation.
Tangcheng promised Hans that it would only get rid of the Portuguese businessman, but it did not include the guards hired by the Portuguese businessman. In particular, Tang Cheng also suspected that there were people from the British military around this Portuguese businessman, so his purpose tonight was just to sneak in, not kill people. Slowly sliding into the courtyard against the courtyard wall, Tang Cheng lowered his body with his feet on the ground, allowing himself to be well hidden in the night. After waiting for half a cigarette, the smoker who had been stared at by Tang Cheng finally left the east side of the backyard.
Tang Cheng, who secretly adjusted his breathing, stood on tiptoes and ran as fast as he could. After a few breaths, Tang Cheng squatted down with his back against the wall of the building. The next moment, Tang Cheng threw his flying claw upwards. Tang Cheng's method of using flying claws was already pure. The flying claws thrown upward immediately hooked the roof. Tang Cheng, who was under the wall, quickly followed the thin rope under the flying claws and climbed up to the place he saw before. Outside the window on the second floor.
It had already been confirmed that the room behind the window was empty, so Tang Cheng didn't have to worry too much. However, when opening the window, Tang Cheng still carefully put tape on the glass. There was indeed no sign of anyone entering or exiting the room behind the window. Although the dust raised made Tang Cheng feel like sneezing, he still endured it when he got into the room through the window, and immediately moved to the door. later.
Perhaps because nothing had happened here, the guards hired by the Portuguese businessmen did not patrol the interior too carefully. Tang Cheng, who was behind the door, pressed his body against the door panel, but didn't hear any movement. Tang Cheng slowly opened the door and poked his head out of the crack in the door. The first thing he saw was a corridor, and there was no one in the corridor.
Tangcheng's current location is on the second floor. According to the information provided by Hans, the Portuguese businessman's office is on the street side of the third floor. Therefore, no matter how Tang Cheng completes his plan, he must go to the third floor. Tang Cheng turned around and closed the door, then moved along the corridor to the side with the stairs to confirm the location of the Portuguese businessman's office, which was crucial to his plan tonight.
From the time he sneaked into the backyard of the trading company until now, Tang Cheng has been going very smoothly. The sound of the old-fashioned wooden stairs did not attract the guards of the trading company to check. Tang Cheng appeared on the third floor very smoothly. Looking out from the corner of the corridor on the third floor, Tang Cheng did not find any guards. He had been cautious in his heart and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He put the Mauser submachine pistol in his hand into his personal equipment. In the bag.
Holding the Mauser pistol with its nose wide open in his hand, Tang Cheng always had a sense of urgency to shoot at any time. Now that he had put the Mauser pistol into his carry-on equipment bag, Tang Cheng suddenly felt relaxed. The third floor was the same as the second floor. There were many rooms on both sides of the corridor. I didn't know which one of them was the room I was looking for. Tang Cheng had to use a stupid method and check each room one by one. Door locks in this era were not complicated. When Tangcheng was still in Chongqing, two guys who were good at sliding doors and picking locks were transferred from the labor camp outside the city to the logistics team of the investigation team.
Therefore, when Tang Cheng had free time, he would learn the skills of unlocking from the two thieves. When he came to Shanghai, he even packed a special set of lockpicking tools in his equipment bag. After coming to Shanghai, all Tang Cheng did was face-to-face firefights with Japanese and puppet spies, so this set of door-opening tools had been left unused in his equipment bag, and now it came in handy.
When he opened the first door, Tang Cheng was not very proficient in unlocking. By the time he opened the door of the third room, Tang Cheng was already very proficient in unlocking. Although the first three rooms that Tang Cheng opened looked like offices, Tang Cheng judged from the furnishings in the rooms that they were not the offices of the Portuguese businessman. Until he opened the door to the fourth room, just looking at the large desk in this room, Tang Cheng felt that he had found the right place.
Tang Cheng has the triple eyepiece skill, so he can see clearly what's going on in the room without turning on the lights. After walking behind the desk, he reached out and tried to pull out the drawers. Unexpectedly, he actually opened one of the drawers. In the drawer that Tang Cheng opened, there were only some receipts and white paper, but nothing that Tang Cheng found useful. Unwilling to be reconciled, Tang Cheng opened other drawers one after another, only to find a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.
Tang Cheng, who had his own selfish motives, did not intend to give up. He did not find anything valuable from the drawer of his desk, so he immediately took out a short knife from his equipment bag and began to carefully tap the wall behind Qi's desk with the handle of the knife. . Tang Cheng's move was to look for safes or secret compartments that might be hidden in the walls, but he didn't know that this Portuguese businessman didn't have the habit of storing large amounts of cash and money in the business. Tang Cheng finally found only a very Small safe.
The safe that Tang Cheng found was hidden behind an oil painting on the wall. Just looking at the size of the safe, Tang Cheng was speechless. This French safe, which can be built into the wall, requires a key and a password to open, and cannot be opened without one of them. However, Tang Cheng does not need keys and passwords. He only needs to take out all the items in the carry-on bag and put them aside. Then, using the storage function of the bag when it is empty, he can easily put the door of the safe into the bag. Go in the equipment bag.
The safe found in Tangcheng didn't look big, but it was divided into upper and lower floors. There was a book on the upper floor of the safe, which looked like an account book. Tang Cheng used his carry-on bag to open the safe. He didn't pay special attention to the booklet. He just focused on the lower level of the safe. It seems that the trip is not in vain! The watch in the box at the bottom of the safe made Tang Cheng feel a little excited. Although Tang Cheng didn't know much about watches, he could tell that this extremely exquisite watch was probably not cheap.
