Because of the teahouse incident, Chongqing's underground party organization was worried that Xu Huanshan would be in danger when he went out, so they secretly deployed personnel to protect Xu Huanshan. Although the place where Xu Huanshan met Tang Cheng was not known to the underground party members who secretly protected him, the Chongqing underground party organization followed Xu Huanshan's route that day and quickly discovered the place where Xu Huanshan met Tang Cheng. Tangcheng is good at character sketches and portraits, and there are also such experts in Chongqing's underground party organizations.
According to the description of the tavern owner and waiter, the Chongqing underground party quickly obtained Tang Cheng's portrait, but they did not know that Tang Cheng's face was disguised when he met Xu Huanshan. As the old saying goes, there are always gaps in everything. When he met Xu Huanshan in Tangcheng, his face was disguised. He thought he was being careful, but when he appeared in the city again with his disguised face, he was caught by Chongqing. The underground party members were targeting him.
Fortunately, Tang Cheng was alert and realized that someone seemed to be following him. Tang Cheng immediately left the street where he was. After walking through two intersections in a row, he kept paying attention to the situation behind him and was 100% sure that he was being followed. People caught up. Who could be tracking him? Tang Cheng, who was full of doubts, first thought of the people from the Military Command Headquarters. After all, those people had deliberately found trouble with Zhang Jianghe before.
He was Zhang Jianghe's nephew, and it was his suggestion to establish a new labor camp outside the city. Based on these factors, the people at the military command headquarters should be equally angry with him. But Tang Cheng thought in a blink of an eye that the people in the military command headquarters had already been reprimanded heavily by the bureau chief who had returned from Chengdu. It had only been a few days, and those people in the military command headquarters might not dare to provoke him. But if the person following him was not someone from the military command, then who would it be?
As Tang Cheng walked, he thought to himself. He thought about the military command, the Central Command, the Brother Pao forces in the city and even the Japanese and puppet spies lurking in the city, but he never thought of the Chongqing underground party organization. Before he thought of the answer, Tang Cheng gave up the idea of joining Zhao Dashan and the others, and just walked around the city quietly. There were three underground party members following Tang Cheng. The three of them followed Tang Cheng alternately, but they never realized that Tang Cheng had seen through them.
About an hour later, Tang Cheng, who had been wandering around, finally stopped outside a teahouse on the street. This teahouse is the one with the best business along the way in Tangcheng. The guests who come to the teahouse at this time are either chatting or playing mahjong. Tangcheng quickly gathered at a table with three tea guests, and it was lively. There was a game of mahjong. One of the three underground party members who followed Tangcheng followed them into the teahouse, while the other two stayed outside the teahouse.
Tang Cheng was not in a hurry or annoyed, and started playing mahjong with peace of mind. This made the three underground party members who secretly followed them waste time and energy with Tang Cheng here. Of course, Tang Cheng, who became the target of being followed, would not be in a hurry, and he played mahjong in this teahouse for several hours without realizing it. It was almost dinner time, and seeing Tang Cheng still looking full of energy at the card table, the two people standing guard outside the teahouse finally realized something was wrong!
"Xiao Ma, do you think he has discovered us?" The young man who noticed something was wrong was a young man with a pockmark on his face. He watched Tang Cheng sitting in a teahouse playing mahjong for several hours. He felt Something is wrong. The underground party member he was questioning seemed to be a little younger than him. The latter scratched his head and murmured for a long time, but couldn't tell a reason.
"Forget it! I shouldn't have asked you since I knew you were a stupid person!" The pock-marked face failed to get help from his companions. Subconsciously frustrated, he whispered to his companions to wait where they were, and then he carried his legs and entered the teahouse. The first person to follow up in the teahouse was also full of boredom at this time, because no matter how he looked, Tang Cheng didn't seem to be leaving the teahouse. As long as the target doesn't leave, he has no way to leave. Thinking of the two companions outside the teahouse, the one who has already drank a lot of tea, can't sit still.
As soon as Pockmarked Face entered the door, the man in long gown and Tang Cheng, who were sitting and drinking tea, both noticed Pockmarked Face. However, Tang Cheng glanced away and looked away, while the man in long gown kept looking at Pockmarked Face. The pockmarked face who entered the teahouse was quite careful. He immediately saw Tang Cheng who was playing cards and his companion in a long gown. The pockmarked face did not say hello to his companion, but sat at a table alone.
Tang Cheng, who was secretly paying attention to the pockmarked face, laughed secretly in his heart. He had been killing time playing mahjong, and finally waited for the end of the cooldown of his insight skill. Tang Cheng's Insight Skill can only be used once every 24 hours. He had been guessing the identity of the stalker before, and his main purpose of entering this teahouse was to wait for the cooldown time of the Insight Skill to end. Tang Cheng secretly activated his Insight Skill immediately, and the identity of the pockmarked face and the man in the long gown was instantly understood by Tang Cheng.
He is actually a member of Chongqing’s underground party? But what are the underground party people doing following me? Tang Cheng, who used his insight skills to learn the identity of the other party, was a little dumbfounded. He thought that he had nothing to do with the underground party. In a sense, he even helped the underground party a lot. But why was the person following him the Chongqing underground party? What about the people? Tang Cheng, who was puzzled, secretly thought about the trajectory of his activities these days, but he could never think of any conflict between himself and the underground party.
The only thing Tang Cheng could think of was that he was getting closer to the military commander, but this was not the reason for the underground party members to follow him! According to Tang Cheng's understanding of Chongqing's underground party organizations, they don't seem to be keen on engaging in assassinations. What's more, they are not considered military commanders, and they have not done anything outrageous to Chongqing's underground party organizations. Tang Cheng, who carefully recalled his activities, suddenly thought of Xu Huanshan and the incident where Xu Huanshan asked him for help.
Could it be that the Chongqing underground party organization sent people to follow him because he refused to help Xu Huanshan and the others to find out the news? This idea that suddenly appeared in his mind was quickly dismissed by Tang Cheng. He believed that Xu Huanshan was an old acquaintance. He believed that Xu Huanshan would not attack him without reason. Moreover, he had explained clearly what Xu Huanshan asked for help at that time, and Xu Huanshan did not express any intention to do anything to him at that time.
If not this, then why? Tang Cheng, who had not figured out the answer, secretly used the corner of his eyes to pay attention to the movement of the man in the long gown and the pockmarked face. Seeing that the two of them were just pretending not to know each other, as if they didn't want to be discovered by themselves, Tang Cheng felt relieved, and suddenly felt that the other party didn't seem to want to do anything to him. Guessing that the other party was just following him but not malicious, Tang Cheng immediately felt something in his mind. He pushed the mahjong in front of him, excused himself to pee, and got up and went to the toilet behind the teahouse.
Seeing Tang Cheng taking action, the man in the long gown and Pockmarked Face became slightly nervous. After receiving the look from their companion, Pockmarked Face, who had only drank half of the bowl of tea, stood up and left the teahouse. The pock-marked man stood up and took a step slowly before walking to the door of the teahouse. Tang Cheng had already gone to the backyard of the teahouse. The curtain that had been lifted down immediately blocked the man in the long gown from sight. The pock-marked person didn't dare to waste time when he left the teahouse, so he quickly walked around to the back alley of the teahouse. After a closer look, he didn't see anything strange in the back alley.
He didn't find the unusual pockmarked face in the back alley, so he thought Tang Cheng was still in the teahouse, but he stayed at the entrance of the alley for a while until the man in the long gown came out of the teahouse angrily. "Don't look, he's gone a long time ago!" The pock-marked person didn't realize that he was being fooled until now. He couldn't help but kick the corner in front of him, but he almost broke his toe. Going to pee at the entrance of Chinatown Street was just an excuse. When he went to the back of the teahouse, he didn't even pause. He just took a run and climbed up the wall in the backyard of the teahouse.
When the pockmarked face walked around to the entrance of the back alley of the teahouse, Tang Cheng had already disappeared along the back alley of the teahouse and disappeared into another exit of the alley. After leaving safely, Tang Cheng did not return to the military camp. Instead, he immediately changed his clothes, took off the disguise on his face, and immediately took a detour back to the teahouse. Tang Cheng, who was guarding the street entrance, saw the man in the long gown with a pockmarked face from a distance, walking towards him one after the other, and he used system skills to lock the man in the long gown early.
Before, it was the man in the long gown with a pockmarked face who followed Tang Cheng all the way, but now it was Tang Cheng who followed the three men in the long gown from a distance, but the other three never noticed Tang Cheng who was following them. Tang Cheng followed the three opponents not to do anything to them, but to identify the contact point of the Chongqing underground party through the three of them. The three people who followed the man in the long gown who had lost Tangcheng felt disappointed at the moment. They were in a bad mood and had no intention of staying outside longer, so they went back to the contact point to report to their superiors.
Relying on the prompts from the system's skills, Tang Cheng followed the three of them and finally confirmed that the three of them had entered a courtyard. Tang Cheng, who only wanted to tease the other party, did not choose to wait until it got dark before coming here to cause trouble for the other party. Tang Cheng borrowed paper and pen from a nearby shop, wrote a few lines of large characters on a piece of kraft paper used to wrap goods, and then wrapped the kraft paper with the written words on a stone.
People in the yard were discussing the failure of the tracking when they suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object hitting the door. The pockmarked-faced young man who was closest to the door was the first to rush from the room to the yard. When he found that there was no one in the courtyard, he ran non-stop to the courtyard gate and carefully observed the situation outside the courtyard through the gap in the courtyard door. Tang Cheng, who threw the stone, had already left, so the pock-marked young man didn't see anything.
