Shooting aimlessly while being chased by the enemy is undoubtedly a wrong move that seeks death. But how could Tang Cheng do such an unreliable thing? He did it on purpose. Tang Cheng deliberately fired indiscriminately just to let these Japanese expats see his appearance clearly. Once Tang Cheng releases the identity card he is using, he will immediately change back to his original appearance. Things at the dock always need a culprit, and the Ono Masaichi that Tang Cheng is currently pretending to be is the best culprit!
After Tangcheng attacked the convoy, he took the initiative to withdraw into the residential area. The main purpose was to expose his current face and create trouble for the subsequent investigation by the Special High School Division and the Military Police Headquarters. The rapid gunfire soon stopped. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that the civilians along the road were hiding. Tangcheng, who was striding all the way north, was holding back a smile. The Japanese police in the residential area were not slow to respond. Tangcheng had just moved to the intersection in front when he heard the sound of a police whistle coming from the street on the left.
Blowing the police whistle means that police are coming. Compared with the military police chasing behind you, the police who are on duty here all day are more familiar with the situation here. Tang Cheng did not dare to neglect. When he heard the police whistle, his first reaction was to turn across the street and run into the street on the right. Tang Cheng was wearing a Japanese military uniform at the moment. The rank mark on his collar showed that Tang Cheng was still an officer. A Japanese officer was holding a pistol in his hand and running like a dog in broad daylight. There would inevitably be many passers-by in this street. Take a few glances.
When they turned the corner, Tangcheng put the original Thomson Charge qia
g, replaced by a Mauser submachine pistol known as a 20-shot shell gun. In the Japanese Army, many low-level officers were actually issued shell guns as close combat weapons. Tang Cheng's running speed was not slow. When he got into the alley on the street, the police and military police chasing him behind him were able to catch up to the intersection of the street. Tang Cheng suddenly lost track of him, and the military policemen who chased him all the way were annoyed. Fortunately, there were police present, and they immediately concluded that Tang Cheng had gotten into the alleyway on the street.
He had long moved along the alleyway to Tangcheng in the next street. Although he had not removed his identity card or changed out of the military uniform, he had already put away his shell gun and did not attract any deliberate attention from passers-by in the next street. . Tang Cheng, who appeared in the next street, walked quickly, crossed the street, and walked into the hotel across the street. "Have the guests in room 203 checked out?" The hotel had just opened its doors not long ago. When the hotel owner who was wiping the counter looked up, he saw a serious-looking Tang Cheng standing in front of the counter looking at him.
"I am Second Lieutenant Ono of the Military Police Headquarters. This is my ID. I am looking for the guest in room 203 upstairs!" Tang Cheng did not go upstairs directly, but put on a business-like face and showed his face to the hotel owner first. He showed his ID, and after getting the answer from the other party, he raised his legs and walked towards the stairs leading upstairs. "Please bring us a pot of tea after half an hour. Before that, I hope you won't disturb our conversation."
Under the watchful eye of the hotel owner, Tang Cheng went up the stairs to the second floor. However, the hotel owner behind the counter downstairs did not know that Tang Cheng, who had gone up to the second floor, did not enter room 203, but walked up the stairs to the second floor. The corridor quickly moved to the ladder leading to the roof. Tang Cheng stepped on the ladder to the roof platform, and using the sheets drying on the roof as cover, he quietly observed the situation in the street outside the hotel, and found a Japanese policeman running quickly out of the alley.
Behind the Japanese policeman, followed closely by several military policemen holding rifles, Tang Cheng quickly retracted his body, hung a rope from another direction on the roof, and activated his light body skill to quickly rappel down. Before Tang Cheng decided to attack the Japanese dock, he had repeatedly deduced the action plan. He also conducted terrain reconnaissance on the residential area closest to the dock. Tang Cheng moved southward along the back alley of the hotel. After a dozen breaths, he changed into casual clothes and appeared in another street.
Tang Cheng, who was looking down at his watch as he walked, suddenly noticed police figures appearing at the intersection in front of him. Judging from their actions, these police officers seemed to be checking the IDs of passers-by. Tangcheng knew in his heart that the police in Hongkou District had received an urgent notice from the Military Police Headquarters, and they planned to block off Hongkou District and conduct a large-scale investigation. After Tangcheng caused trouble in Hongkou District several times before, the Military Police Headquarters and the Special High School Class had both blocked Hongkou District, so Tangcheng was no stranger to this practice.
Fortunately, Tangcheng had made preparations in advance. Taking advantage of the lack of people on the street in the morning, Tangcheng spent a lot of effort turning left and right. Finally, before Hongkou District was completely blocked, he used the flying claw to quietly return to his place yesterday. In an open hotel room. Before Tang Cheng stayed at the izakaya to guard Ono Shoichi yesterday, he had already booked a room in this hotel. As long as Tang Cheng now pretends to have slept in the hotel last night, coupled with the difference in height and appearance, I believe that even the military police will He and the special agents came to check, but they couldn't find any flaws in Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng climbed in through the window of the room and immediately removed his ID card. He simply wiped his body with cold water in the bathroom, then changed into pajamas and lay down on the bed. At this moment, Tang Cheng had calmed down. Although he was already lying on the bed, he was not sleepy at all. He simply opened the system panel and started to check his gains last night. Oops! This is the rhythm to develop! The number of lottery draws that appeared below the system light curtain made Tang Cheng almost jump out of bed.
Tang Cheng himself remembered that the number of Japanese soldiers killed on the dock last night was at most 30, but the number of draws that appeared under the light curtain was close to 200, and while he was stunned, the number of draws had strangely increased again. After thinking for a while, Tang Cheng came to the conclusion that the extra number of draws should be the reason why Japanese soldiers died in explosions and fires. And the lottery opportunity that was just added may be the result of the wounded Japanese soldiers sent to the hospital not being treated.
After getting so many lottery opportunities at once, Tang Cheng couldn't help but feel ecstatic. However, his carry-on equipment bag was already filled with weapons and ammunition obtained from the dock ammunition depot, so Tang Cheng decided not to draw lottery tickets from the system for the time being. While Tang Cheng was lying on the hotel bed and giggling, the military police and policemen who chased out of the alley but lost track of Tang Cheng had already followed their judgment and found the hotel that Tang Cheng had entered before.
The hotel owner did hear the explosions and gunshots, but he did not know what happened on the dock. When questioned by the military police and police, he immediately admitted that an officer had indeed come to his hotel. The anxious-looking military police and police learned from the hotel owner that the target was in Room 203 upstairs. They did not go upstairs immediately. Instead, they made arrangements to surround the hotel tightly. Later, they More military police came here, and they even brought light machine guns!
The heavily armed gendarmerie troops were mobilized and made careful arrangements. Then, under the leadership of a gendarmerie second lieutenant, a group of gendarmerie veterans with live ammunition launched a search for the hotel. But the result of the search made the gendarmes and policemen present feel black and black, because room 203, which the hotel owner said lived in room 203, lived a Japanese businessman who had just arrived in Shanghai from Japan two days ago. Unwilling to be reconciled, the military police searched other rooms in the hotel but could not find any trace of the target.
"Impossible! That officer did tell me at the time that he was looking for guests staying in room 203, and he told me to send them a pot of hot tea in half an hour!" The hotel owner was controlled by the furious military police. , knowing that the situation was not good, the hotel owner immediately started struggling crazily. There was indeed a pot of freshly brewed tea on the counter of the hotel. Looking at the situation of the guests in room 203, the military police and police present also felt that the hotel owner seemed to have been taken advantage of.
But the situation on the dock was too serious, and the military police major who was commanding the operations at the hotel did not dare to release the hotel owner and these guests now, so he could only temporarily detain these people in the hotel. At this time, Hongkou District had been completely sealed off. When they learned that the pursuing military police had lost their target, the furious senior officers of the military police headquarters immediately ordered a search of the entire Hongkou District. Tang Cheng, who had been lying in bed recalling the course of the action, was interrupted by a violent knock on the door half an hour later.
Tang Cheng got out of bed, walked over and opened the door, and then saw two military police and a plainclothes agent standing outside the door. Tang Cheng, who had foreseen that this situation would occur, acted very calmly at the moment. After taking out his ID as required by the military police, he also accepted the interrogation of the plainclothes agents. "I am planning to return to the mainland, but the ferry ticket is in three days, so I will stay here temporarily." The documents and ferry tickets that Tang Cheng took out were all correct, and Tang Cheng's appearance was very deceptive, so he easily Passed inspection by military police and plainclothes agents.
Tangcheng's stay at this hotel was not decided casually, because the owner of this hotel could help buy the ferry ticket back to Japan, so almost all the people staying in this hotel were Japanese who were anxious to return to Japan. The military police and plainclothes agents responsible for inspecting the hotel continuously checked the guests in several rooms and found that they were all travelers who were preparing to return to Japan by boat recently. The suspicion they had in their minds was gone.
The search of the hotel was immediately lifted, but the people in the hotel were asked not to leave at will. When Tang Cheng went downstairs, the hotel owner was taking his wife to prepare breakfast for the guests who had gone downstairs before. There is no way to leave the hotel for the time being, so the guests can only have three meals in the hotel. The hotel owner, who was originally dissatisfied, is secretly enjoying himself, but he can take the opportunity to make a fortune again. Knowing that he couldn't leave Tangcheng in Hongkou District today, he didn't care about it and just stayed in this hotel calmly.
