An hour later, Tang Cheng returned to Xinya Hotel with a full load. As soon as he walked into the hotel, Tang Cheng saw several Japanese military police in the hotel lobby, checking the guests' documents. "Excuse me, what's going on?" Tang Cheng asked an oncoming hotel guest with a calm face. The hotel guest who was called by Tang Cheng was a middle-aged man with a beautiful beard. The impatience on his face showed that this man was angry.
Fortunately, he did not get angry at Tang Cheng. Instead, he patiently told Tang Cheng, who looked harmless, about what he had just experienced. Knowing that these military police were here to check the hotel's situation, Tang Cheng immediately understood that this should be an arrangement made in advance for the pathologist arriving tomorrow. Tang Cheng took his fake ID, and with the certificate from the hotel staff, he successfully passed the military police inspection.
When dinner was approaching, the bank manager appeared in the hotel again. He came to have dinner with Tang Cheng. Perhaps because they felt that the identity of the bank manager was far more trustworthy than that of a businessman, the Japanese military police who had been staying in the hotel looked at Tang Cheng when they saw Tang Cheng and the bank manager walking out of the elevator talking and laughing. His gaze became much less. Tang Cheng, who had already noticed it, secretly smiled in his heart. He didn't expect that one of his unintentional actions would have such benefits.
Because of the unexpected surprise brought about by the accident, Tang Cheng was very generous with the expenses for dinner and izakaya. The bank manager was also secretly happy about this. As long as this young man regarded himself as a friend, the matter of contacting the Kwantung Army would be easy. The two people with their own thoughts played around in the izakaya for a while. When Tang Cheng, who was half drunk, was sent back to the hotel, Tang Cheng, who pretended to be drunk, learned from the chat among the hotel waiters that the suite on the top floor of the hotel had been occupied. The military police headquarters was set.
Already knowing that the pathologist will arrive in Shanghai tomorrow, and more than 80% of them will stay at the New Asia Hotel, so Tang Cheng returned to the room and immediately started to get busy. Tang Cheng once assassinated a traitor in the penthouse suite of the New Asia Hotel, so he still had some impressions of the situation in the penthouse suite. At 2 o'clock in the morning, Tang Cheng, dressed in black, quietly opened the door, took the stairs and sneaked to the upper floor. at the end of the east corridor. Tang Cheng did not dare to take the stairs directly to the top floor of the hotel. He was worried that the Military Police Headquarters would keep people on the top floor, so he chose to enter the penthouse suite from the outside.
Gently opening the window at the end of the corridor, Tang Cheng first observed the situation outside the hotel. Not noticing anything unusual, he leaned out of the window and then threw his flying claw upwards. The flying claws thrown by Tang Cheng accurately hooked on the edge of the roof. Tang Cheng, who had activated his light body skill, immediately got out of the window and quickly climbed up along the thin rope under the flying claws. When Tang Cheng climbed along the string to the outside of the window of the corridor on the top floor, he carefully observed the situation in the corridor through the window, but did not see any military police appearing.
The night provided the best cover for Tang Cheng, who was dressed in black. Tang Cheng, who was hanging on the string, waited quietly for a while, and after he was 100% sure that there was no one in the corridor on the top floor, he continued along the string. Climb up. Further up, climbing along the thin rope, you can see the window of the bathroom of the penthouse suite. There was no sound in the bathroom behind the window. Tang Cheng, who had activated the triple eyepiece skill, was completely unaffected by the light and could clearly see everything in the bathroom.
Tang Cheng did not stop here and put his ear against the window to listen to the movement in the room, but continued to climb up along the thin rope. After climbing to the top of the building, Tang Cheng changed the position of Feizhao and rappelled down from the current position. Tang Cheng could clearly see the general situation in the suite through the largest window of the penthouse suite. After a dozen breaths, Tang Cheng looked like Spider-Man in the movie, sliding down from the roof of the building little by little along the string under his flying claws, until his eyes were level with the upper edge of the window.
I have to say that Tang Cheng's caution was wise. Tang Cheng slowly slid down the string and quietly looked in through the window. Sure enough, he saw a sleeping military police lieutenant lying on the long sofa behind the window. In the two single sofas adjacent to the long sofa, there were also Japanese military policemen sitting with their eyes closed and taking a nap. Tang Cheng, who was hanging upside down on the string, secretly felt lucky. If he had barged in regardless, he might have started a fight with the three guys in the room by now.
Tang Cheng, who was secretly glad in his heart, immediately climbed up the rope and climbed back to the top of the building. He changed the position of the flying claw again, followed the path he came from and quietly slid down into the corridor, then went down the stairs and returned to his room. . In Tang Cheng's personal equipment bag, there were grenades and explosives obtained by Hans. He originally planned to sneak into the top-floor suite at night and use explosives and grenades to make a death trap for the pathologist. But he didn't expect that the Military Police Headquarters would actually send people to guard the suite tonight.
Since there is no chance to enter the penthouse suite, Tang Cheng can only think of other ways. If someone else encountered this situation, they might think that they could find a chance to enter the penthouse suite by pretending to be a hotel waiter. But Tangcheng didn't think so. In the afternoon, the military police had fully verified the identities of all hotel guests. Could it be that they would treat the hotel staff differently?
The Gendarmerie Headquarters arranged for people to enter the penthouse suite at night, which showed that the Gendarmerie Headquarters valued the pathologist very much. In this case, Tang Cheng believed that the first thing the Gendarmerie Headquarters would verify was all the work in the hotel. The identity of the person. Tang Cheng still has an unused identity card in his hand. As long as Tang Cheng uses this identity card, he can completely become a different person like he did when he attacked the Officers Club last time. Although the ID card also has a time limit, as long as Tang Cheng moves fast enough, he will have enough time to leave Hongkou District safely.
Unfortunately, Tang Cheng planned to use that identity card in an attack on the Japanese military dock. Compared with assassinating a so-called pathologist and attacking the Japanese military dock, Tang Cheng felt that attacking the dock was more dangerous. The night was already dark, but Tang Cheng in the room had not yet fallen asleep. He thought of no less than five action plans, but after repeated deductions, he finally found that these action plans had loopholes. When leaving the hotel at dinner, Tang Cheng noticed the faint presence of military police on the top of the building opposite the hotel.
If Tangcheng could not occupy the high roof of the building opposite the hotel, it would not be possible for Tangcheng to implement the plan of on-site sniping. If Tangcheng goes all out and forcibly implements this action plan, the target may die outside the hotel door, but Tangcheng is also likely to be surrounded by military police troops, and in the end he will be dead or injured and unable to leave Hongkou District. Tangcheng would never make such a loss-making deal by exchanging his own life for the target's life, even if the other party held highly confidential information.
What's more, the most important point is that the pathologist arriving at the hotel tomorrow will have a piece of information that Hans wants. Since Hans said that the information was highly confidential, Tang Cheng felt that the information should be carried by the pathologist. If he used a sniper rifle to carry out long-range sniping, he would have no way to get the information Hans wanted. . As Tang Cheng tossed and turned in thought, the sky gradually became brighter. Fortunately, Tang Cheng's recovery ability was far superior to ordinary people. Otherwise, he would have appeared in front of everyone wearing a pair of black eye frames after not sleeping all night.
At eight o'clock in the morning, three black cars came outside the New Asia Hotel. Tang Cheng, who had been standing in front of the room window to secretly observe the situation outside the hotel, judged that the target might be in these three cars. So after confirming that the car was parked in front of the hotel, Tang Cheng counted the time in his mind, pretended to want to go out, left the room and stood in front of the elevator. Since the Gendarmerie Command arranged for the target to be in a suite on the top floor of the hotel, the target should take the elevator upstairs. Tang Cheng was waiting here because he planned to make a fuss in the elevator.
There are two elevators in Xinya Hotel, one goes up and one goes down. When Tang Cheng saw the steel cable of the upgoing elevator shaking due to force, he knew that the upgoing elevator had been started. The elevators of this era were not the fully enclosed elevators of later generations, so Tang Cheng, who was standing in front of the elevator door, only had to put his hand through the space of the mesh elevator door to wrap a homemade bomb around the steel of the ascending elevator. on the cable. Xinya Hotel is a Japanese property, and those who stay here are either Japanese or traitors. Therefore, Tang Cheng does not feel the slightest sense of guilt in causing chaos here.
Using homemade bombs to blow up the target's elevator to create chaos was the only available option that Tang Cheng could think of after thinking hard last night. Although Tang Cheng was not 100% sure whether the target was in the elevator, he chose to take a gamble. If he lost the bet, he would attack again at worst. "Boom!" There was a loud noise, and he quickly went down the stairs to the next floor of Tangcheng, feeling that the whole hotel was shaking.
Tang Cheng did not pause at all, but quickly went down the stairs. When he reached the corner of the stairs on the first and second floors, Tang Cheng slowed down slightly. On the first floor of the New Asia Hotel, there was a panic scene at the moment. A group of Japanese military police were gathering in front of the elevator, and the military police were trying their best to drive the people in the lobby on the first floor into the restaurant next to them. Tang Cheng's appearance on the first floor did not attract anyone else's special attention because the lobby on the first floor was too chaotic.
Tang Cheng immediately pretended to be scared and crouched down beside a middle-aged couple tremblingly, keeping an eye on the situation in the elevator out of the corner of his eye. The elevator's rope was broken, and the elevator that had already reached the fourth floor fell from the elevator shaft to the first floor. The military police gathered in front of the elevator door were thinking of ways to use force to open the deformed elevator door and get the people out of the elevator.
