As the night fell, there was a faint sound of footsteps in the originally dark and silent alley. Only a dozen breaths later, two men in black appeared at the entrance of the alley, one after the other. The slightly taller man in black stretched out his body from the alley entrance and looked at the street entrance on the left side of the alley entrance from a distance. Go out from the alley and follow the street to the left for a short distance. There is a street intersection. As long as you go straight through this street intersection, you will soon see the Telegraph Building on the other street.
There are guards on duty at the Telegraph Building, and every half hour, a pair of policemen with guns patrol the place. These two men in black hiding in the alley, if they want to get close to the Telegraph Building, they must first evade the police patrolling here. That pair of policemen. After staring at the street intersection not far away and observing carefully for a while, the tall man in black finally retracted his body. After whispering a few words to his companion, the tall man in black quickly ran out of the alley.
With the help of the shadows on the street, the tall man in black quickly moved to the intersection of the street. He leaned sideways against him in the shadows on the street. After looking left and right to confirm that there was nothing strange around him, he quickly walked straight through. Street intersection. The short man in black who stayed at the entrance of the alley also ran out of the alley at this time. But compared to the tall man in black, the short man in black who set off later not only carried a bulging backpack behind him, but also carried a small oil can filled with gasoline in his right hand.
Seeing that the backpack filled with a lot of things and the oil can filled with gasoline seriously affected the speed of the short man in black, he had just leaned against the shadow of the street when he faintly heard a voice coming from the left side of the street. There was some chatter. The short man in black was immediately startled, ignoring the beckoning of his companions from across the street, and just ran back quickly carrying the oil can. The tall man in black who had already crossed the street heard the voices coming from the street next to him. Seeing that his companion had turned around to hide, he immediately lowered his body and hid in the garbage outside a shop. Behind the barrel.
The voices became louder and louder. The tall man in black who was hiding behind the trash can soon saw two policemen turning around from the street next to him. Worried about being exposed, the tall man in black secretly gritted his teeth and slowly pulled out the pistol from his waist. He was already prepared to be discovered by the two policemen. I don’t know if it was due to good luck, but the two policemen, who were chatting and joking while patrolling, didn’t find the man in black hiding behind the trash can.
Watching the patrol policemen disappear in the direction of the telegraph building, the tall man in black was secretly glad and couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Just after he put away his weapon and waited here at the street entrance for a while, his companion did not appear on the other side of the street. damn it! The tall man in black, who was waiting anxiously, cursed secretly in his heart. Not seeing his companion appear, he could only return to the opposite side of the street with a look of helplessness, looking for his companion who might have hid in the alley.
Because of the appearance of the two policemen, he saw his companion turning around to avoid him, and mistakenly thought that his companion was frightened and hid in the alley where he was. But when he returned to the alley, he didn't see his companions. Before he could react, he was knocked over by two black figures jumping down from the wall before he could react. Under the body. First, he hit his chin with a heavy punch, and then hit him with several heavy punches in the chest and abdomen. After the tall man in black completely lost consciousness, he was dragged from the ground with great force. stand up.
The man in black, whose eyes were full of stars, had almost lost consciousness at this time. Although he could detect someone standing in front of him, he just couldn't see clearly who was standing in front of him. "Okay, take it away!" The dizzy tall man in black only heard a deep voice ringing in his ears, and then he felt that he was being held up and walked out of the alley for a long time. After a while, he was stuffed into a car.
Half an hour later, two black cars drove into the military camp compound one after another. Zhang Jianghe, who had been waiting for a long time, stretched his head out of the corridor window and saw two men in black being dragged out of the cars. , was escorted into the small building by Tang Cheng and others. Tonight's operation was personally directed by Tang Cheng. Zhang Jianghe had not slept until now because he wanted to know the situation first-hand. Knowing that Zhang Jianghe had been waiting for Tang Cheng who had not slept, he quickly carried the backpack and oil can upstairs and went directly into Zhang Jianghe's office.
"Only two small shrimps were caught. Judging from the things they brought, they must be preparing to set fire. I still don't know if their appearance has anything to do with the Japanese bombing!" Tang Cheng entered Zhang Jianghe's office and opened the backpack. He took out the items in his backpack one by one and placed them on Zhang Jianghe's desk. Zhang Jianghe did not speak, but carefully looked at the things placed on Tang Cheng's desk. When he saw the oil pot and the oil-stained cotton yarn, he began to believe Tang Cheng's judgment.
Zhang Jiang and the others in Tangcheng had seen the people they arrested tonight from the corridor window just now. They were two small characters dressed in black at night. They carried oil and oil-stained veils with them. They were not preparing to set fire. What is it again! But the problem is that the place where they caught these two little characters in Tangcheng was near the Telegraph Building. Zhang Jianghe clearly remembered that not only were there guards at the Telegraph Building, but there were also patrol police patrolling the street from time to time.
Tang Cheng happened to notice the suspicious expression on Zhang Jianghe's face at this moment, so he pointed at the things on the table and said to Zhang Jianghe. "Don't underestimate these things. If they just set fire to cause damage tonight, it will indeed look like a joke. But if they just set fire to guide the bombers in the sky, once these things are ignited, they will then use the wind to Expanding the fire area is the bomber’s favorite ground guidance signal.”
For ordinary fires, you may only need to pour water to extinguish the fire, but if enough oil is used when setting the fire, once the fire expands, it cannot be quickly extinguished by pouring water. "Uncle, we have caught several waves of guys like this in the past few nights. Do you really think that they are just small characters who are bored enough to set fires at night?" Seeing Zhang Jianghe, his face was still full of anger. With his suspicious expression, Tang Cheng knew that Zhang Jianghe did not completely believe his inference.
"Anyway, it's too early to say this. Why don't we just wait. As long as the Japanese planes come, there will be discoveries and reports from the air defense positions outside the city." Tangcheng, which still retains the memory of later generations, clearly Remember, the Japanese bombing campaign against Chongqing lasted for a long time. The actual death toll during the entire bombing process was not very high, but the damage to the economy and social order was extremely serious.
Tangcheng has unparalleled system skills, and after moving south to Chongqing, it immediately set up a search team specifically to target the lurking spies in the city. The purpose was not only to crack down on the Japanese and puppet spies lurking in Chongqing, but the most important thing was to We want to avoid another tragedy like the Chongqing bombing. Only as a large number of people continued to move south, and a large number of refugees also poured into Chongqing, Tangcheng realized that the Chongqing bombing might not be reversed at all, because Tangcheng knew that a large number of Japanese puppets were already hidden among these refugees. spy.
Placing their carefully trained agents among the refugees and moving them at will in the Kuomintang-controlled areas is a specialty of the Japanese intelligence agencies. Such Japanese and puppet spies mixed among refugees often have only one mission, which is to secretly undermine the economic, military, industrial and social order of the hidden areas, causing maximum damage and losses to the Kuomintang-controlled areas. Chongqing is not only a mountain city, but also a famous foggy city. Without the cooperation of ground guidance, the Japanese army would not be able to use air power to carry out large-scale precision bombing against Chongqing.
Realizing that trouble is approaching, the only thing Tangcheng can do now is to intensify the search for Japanese and puppet spies in the city, and at the same time increase patrols at night to prevent the Japanese and puppet spies from trying to set fires at night to provide ground guidance for Japanese fighter planes. possible. The two men in black caught tonight are the result of night patrols led by Tang Cheng himself. Tang Cheng and the others have caught a lot of guys like this who come out to do bad things at night.
Two hours later, in the interrogation room filled with the smell of blood, the screams finally stopped. Two torturers seconded from the military command headquarters finally succeeded in prying open the mouths of the two men in black and brought Tangcheng... Two names. "Since we have confirmed that these two are the sponsors of the money, let's arrest them immediately!" Tang Cheng, whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, was not sleepy at all at this time. After making some arrangements, he immediately led people into the market again. district.
The two names confessed by the man in black were one named Zhao Kui, the owner of a tea shop in the south of the city, and the other named Bai Kun, a gangster who hung out in brothels and casinos all year round. Bai Kun came forward to find the two men in black tonight, but it was Zhao Kui who actually paid. According to Tang Cheng's judgment, this Bai Kun was just a middleman who got paid to do things, and it was Zhao Kui who actually had the problem. So when the task was assigned in Tangcheng, he chose to personally lead the team to capture this Zhao Kui.
Tang Cheng was already used to being arbitrary in the search team, so no one among the team members involved in the arrest dared to stand up and question Tang Cheng's orders. Tang Cheng originally thought that the next arrest operation should go smoothly, after all, he himself took action. But he never expected that when he led people to the south of the city, the roar of anti-aircraft fire suddenly came from the night above his head, and the Japanese bombers were really coming.
