It was no accident that Tang Cheng focused on these large-caliber artillery shells at the Japanese dock. The last time he attacked the Japanese officers' club, he found relevant information from the body of a dead Japanese naval officer. Tangcheng has been attacking the plainclothes officers of the Special High School in the concession these days. The purpose is just to focus all the attention of the Special High School on the concession. As long as he can successfully divert the attention of the Special High School, he will have the opportunity to attack the Japanese military dock. Just dealing with the Military Police Headquarters will be much less difficult.

Hans didn't know the inside story, so after hearing Tang Cheng's purpose, the pretended panic on his face immediately turned into a look of real panic. "Tang, I don't know where you got the information from! But you have to know that if the Japanese military dock stores large-caliber artillery shells that are about to be transported to the front line, the defense of the dock will definitely be extremely tight. Don't say whether you can sneak in. , even if you can enter the dock, how can you leave the dock safely?"

When Tang Cheng heard this, he just grinned and said, "I'm here to ask you for help! I heard that there are many smugglers in the black market, and they secretly get a lot of hot goods from the Japanese dock! You are also in the black market business , you should know that if these smugglers didn’t have insider information in the Japanese docks, they would never be able to get so many in-demand items! I want you to help find out who are the Japanese officers who secretly smuggled in-demand items from the Japanese docks!"

Hans didn't know that Tang Cheng already had a temporary identity card that was pulled out of the system last night. As long as Hans could help Tang Cheng identify a Japanese officer who was dumping military supplies from the Japanese dock, Tang Cheng could use it. This temporary identity card changed its appearance and entered the Japanese dock instead of the Japanese officer. "So what if I find it!" Hans just glanced at Tang Cheng angrily. "Those who squander military supplies are only used to trading with familiar faces, and strangers can't be trusted at all!"

Hans was obviously mistaken, but Tang Cheng did not explain it. He just told Hans to help him find out. In order for Hans to help him find out the news as soon as possible, Tang Cheng also took the initiative to give half of the money he deserved last time as a reward to Hans. Hans would never refuse anything that offered money. Seeing the faint pride in Hans's expression, Tang Cheng secretly laughed in his heart and said to himself, sooner or later, he will have to give the money to the young man. return.

Hans, who was jealous of the money, agreed to help. After leaving the restaurant, Tang Cheng saw that it was still early and went to the public concession again. When they parted ways with Xu Huanshan in Chongqing, Xu Huanshan once told Tang Cheng an address and said that if Tang Cheng went to Shanghai again and encountered trouble, he could go to this address to seek help. Tang Cheng is going to the place Xu Huanshan told him, which is a teahouse in the public concession. Like Juntong, Tangcheng has always maintained an aloof relationship with underground party organizations, but if there are benefits, Tangcheng will still think of underground party organizations first.

After entering the public concession, Tang Cheng found that the security environment in the public concession was far more chaotic than that in the French Concession, and there were even suspicious looking guys appearing in the streets. Tang Cheng looks like a kid from a rich family and looks tender. A plainclothes agent who is active in the public concession will not waste time and energy on Tang Cheng. After noticing several plainclothes agents in the street, Tang Cheng became increasingly depressed. He did not expect that the situation in the public concession was already so serious.

When Tang Cheng discovered that there were plainclothes agents on the street, he was cautious. Only after walking half the street, he finally realized that these plainclothes agents had no intention of paying attention to him. Tang Cheng, who secretly breathed a sigh of relief, mingled with the crowd and walked eastward from the street until he passed the intersection in front of him and saw the tea house's sign. If it had been when Tang Cheng first arrived in Shanghai, Tang Cheng might have chosen to enter the tea house directly, but now, he has not done so.

After seeing the tea house's sign, Tang Cheng did not choose to enter the tea house, but turned directly into the suit shop opposite the tea house. It is said that the British are strict and old-fashioned in doing things, and they rarely have contact with the British in China, so they don't know much about it. After he stood on the low platform in front of the suit shop window and was fiddled with by the old British tailor in front of him for almost half an hour, Tang Cheng finally believed the truth of the saying that the British were old-fashioned and rigorous in doing things.

Standing on the low platform, Tang Cheng kept raising his hands and legs in accordance with the requirements of the old British tailor. He seemed to be cooperating with the tailor to measure his body data, but in fact he was carefully observing the tea shop across the street through the street window of the suit shop. village. Half an hour later, Tang Cheng didn't notice anything strange about anyone entering or leaving the tea house. Moreover, the few plainclothes agents he had discovered before did not seem to list the tea house as a suspect. From this, Tangcheng judged that the tea house should be safe.

After being fiddled with by the old British tailor for a while, Tang Cheng was allowed to get off the low platform. After paying a deposit and agreeing on a time to pick up the clothes, Tang Cheng came out of the suit shop carrying the things he had bought earlier. To be on the safe side, Tang Cheng, who walked out of the suit shop, did not immediately cross the street and enter the tea house. Instead, he first went to the shoe store next to the suit shop and bought a pair of shoes, and then crossed the street and appeared outside the tea house. Through the door of the tea house, Tang Cheng could clearly see that there were no guests in the tea house at the moment. There was only a waiter dozing on the table in the corner, and the tea house manager was settling accounts.

Tang Cheng pushed the door open and entered the tea house. The waiter who was awakened by the copper bell above the door immediately stood up and came over to greet Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng, who had put on a facial disguise before going out, was not worried that the other party would remember his appearance, so he sat down at the table in front of the tea house owner. "I want three taels of Yuqian Longjing, and two taels of old Pu'er. If there is English black tea, give me three taels too!" Tang Cheng's face was dull, and his tone of voice was calm when he spoke, but he heard his words. In the ears of the tea house manager, it had a different meaning.

This tea house is an emergency contact point for the Shanghai underground party organization. It is under the direct leadership of the senior leaders of the Shanghai underground party organization. However, it is only used for emergency contact with outside comrades and does not have direct contact with members of the Shanghai underground party organization. . What Tang Cheng said just now should be the emergency contact code, but he didn't know that the contact code Xu Huanshan told him was the highest-level contact code.

"Longjing is in stock before the rain, but Old Pu'er has been out of stock for a long time. There may only be one tael of English black tea!" The teahouse owner looked at Tangcheng without blinking. The man standing behind Tangcheng had already tightened his grip. took the teapot in his hand. If Tang Cheng couldn't catch the secret message from the tea house owner, the teapot in the waiter's hand would immediately hit Tang Cheng on the back of the head. After hearing this, Tang Cheng did not speak immediately. Instead, he stretched out his right hand, dipped his right index finger into the tea in front of him, and wrote a line of words on the table.

"When I came here, I found plainclothes agents wandering around the street in front, so we don't need to go to the back, let's talk here!" After completing the joint process, Tang Cheng rejected the tea shop owner's suggestion to go to the back to talk by himself, but He lowered his voice and explained his purpose to the other party. "I personally think this is an opportunity. You don't need to participate in the specific actions. You just need to organize people to transport those things and hide them after seeing the signal I sent!"

The shopkeeper of the tea house had already stiffened up. Tang Cheng, who could accurately speak the code for contact, was a new face. The one who could speak the code for contact was naturally one of his own. But what Tang Cheng just said was too sensational. He had been hiding in the public concession for many years and had never been exposed to such a bold action plan. The tea shop owner's reaction had already been noticed by Tang Cheng, but he did not urge the other party to make a decision immediately. Instead, he drank tea quietly and gave the other party enough time to think about it.

After about half a cigarette, the tea shop owner finally came to his senses, and then looked at Tang Cheng with complicated eyes. Tang Cheng, who noticed the hesitation in the other person's eyes, spoke first before the other person could speak. "I came to Shanghai because of other tasks! To be honest, my mission in Shanghai has almost been completed! I just happened to come across such a good opportunity. I feel that it would be a pity if I missed this opportunity!"

"And as far as I know, your Shanghai underground party organization has been short of weapons, ammunition and necessary equipment! Now there is such a good opportunity to get a batch of weapons, ammunition and equipment for free. It is absolutely great for your Shanghai underground party organization. It's a good opportunity! I'll give you two days to think about it. Regardless of whether you participate in this action or not, I will not sit idly by and ignore this good opportunity!" By saying this, Tang Cheng has made his attitude clear. The tea shop owner only said Neng said that he would get in touch as soon as possible.

Tang Cheng took the initiative to contact the tea house today, not to force the Shanghai underground party to make an immediate decision. The attitude of the tea house owner just matched Tang Cheng's thoughts. After agreeing on the next time to meet, Tang Cheng took the bags and packed them. Two bags of tea left the tea house. Half an hour later, he used the emergency contact method to report the situation to his superior, the tea shop manager. While waiting anxiously, he finally received a notification from his superior. The superior's attitude was basically consistent with the tea house owner's guess. The superior asked to meet with Tang Cheng to learn more about the actions mentioned by Tang Cheng.

Tang Cheng, who had already left the tea house, did not know how the tea house owner contacted the senior officials of Shanghai's underground party organization, but he knew that the other party might not believe him easily, and the tea house might be moved and hidden immediately. In the next two days, apart from going to Hans's restaurant to enjoy the autumn breeze, Tang Cheng hid in his residence and continued to refine and repeatedly deduce the action plan. Although Tang Cheng said it was easy, in fact, Tang Cheng was not very sure about this operation, especially after he took the initiative to contact the Shanghai underground party organization.
