Tang Cheng chose to stay in the restaurant under the pretext of being a bastard, and sent away the shocked diners. Hans put a sign on the restaurant that it was temporarily closed, then brought two bottles of beer and met Tang Cheng. Cheng was sitting behind the street window of the restaurant, chatting while looking at the situation on the street outside. The two of them didn't wait long before more than a dozen patrolmen from the concession rushed over, and then a few more men in suits came.
"Let's take a look! These guys in suits are probably people from the extra-high school class!" Tang Cheng put down the wine bottle in his hand and pointed out the window to motion Hans to look outside. Hans looked in the direction indicated by Tang Cheng and saw a man in a suit wearing a top hat getting out of a black car. "Tsk tsk! This guy is not simple at first glance! Maybe he is the leader of these plainclothes spies!" Tang Cheng couldn't help but smacked his tongue, and he could tell at a glance that the leather shoes worn by the man in the top hat were worth a lot of money.
Hans's focus was different from that of Tang Cheng. Just as Tang Cheng was secretly guessing from the top hat man's attire, Hans had already noticed the top hat man's attitude towards other plainclothes agents. Tang Cheng, who was sipping his beer, didn't know at the moment that because of his existence and his repeated attacks on Shanghai Special High School, the staff turnover of Shanghai Special High School was the fastest among all the special high school sites in China. one of. The man in the top hat who got out of the car at this moment was Lieutenant Colonel Nanzhe Banyoko, who was recently transferred from Tianjin University of Technology to Shanghai University of Technology. He was temporarily responsible for all operations of Shanghai University of Technology in the concession.
Banheng Nanzhe is also a veteran spy. He once set up ambushes in Tianjin Special High School and captured multiple members of Tianjin’s underground party organization in one day, including three senior members. The Shanghai Special High School has had a bad year recently. Not only have there been successive incidents in Hongkou District, which was tightly controlled by the Japanese army, but the operators of the Special High School in the concession have also been attacked continuously. As a result, the personnel of the Shanghai Special High School have suffered heavy losses, which has seriously affected their ability to work in the concession. Action matters in the concession.
If things are not done well, there is always a need for a scapegoat to resist the rebuke from superiors. In order to reverse the unfavorable situation currently faced by Shanghai Special Higher Education Course, there was an order to transfer Ban Heng Nanzhe to Shanghai Special Higher Education Course. To be honest, Banheng Nanzhe, who received the transfer order, was reluctant to be transferred to Shanghai. Ban Heng Nan Zhe, who was far away in Tianjin, had heard about what happened in Shanghai. The attackers were so bold that they even dared to attack the military dock in Shanghai that was closely guarded by the Japanese army. Ban Heng Nan Zhe did not think he could deal with such an enemy.
However, the military orders were overwhelming, and Banheng Nanzhe, who received the transfer order, did not have the courage to disobey the orders, so he could only bring a few confidants to Shanghai. Today was his first day on the job. Unfortunately, before he could sit on the sofa in the office to warm up, he received a report that someone in the French Concession was attacking a plainclothes vehicle of the Extra High School. Banyoko Nanzhe, who was getting out of the car at this moment, had no idea that the ghost gunman that Shanghai Special High School had been tracking was now in the restaurant across the street, looking at him openly through the glass of the street window.
Tang Cheng didn't know the identity of Ban Heng Nanzhe at this moment. He just saw this guy getting out of the car and felt that Ban Heng Nanzhe was the leader of these plainclothes agents outside the restaurant. Hans was also secretly observing the newly emerged Itayo Nanzhe. As a qualified intelligence businessman, good at observation is also a means of daily intelligence and clues. The car that was attacked was a mobile vehicle belonging to the Shanghai Special High School. At this moment, the fire in the car body had been extinguished, and several bodies inside the car were also taken out and placed on the street.
Banheng Nanzhe covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and got closer to observe the corpses. As he got closer, the burnt smell became stronger and stronger. A trace expert who was examining the corpse saw Banyoko Nanzhe approaching and immediately stood up and whispered. "Your Excellency Lieutenant Colonel, these corpses have been inspected. Except for that one, the others are all our people." According to the trace expert's report, Itayoko Nanzhe focused his attention on the outermost corpse. superior.
"Second Lieutenant Nantian and others had called back to the headquarters before they were attacked, claiming that they had captured a resister in the French Concession." The trace expert leaned down and used his gloved right hand to forcefully move the corpse's left hand away, signaling Banheng. Nan Zhe paid attention to the ring on the left index finger of the corpse. "Based on the traces inside the car, the pull tab on the corpse's hand, and the grenade fragments I found inside the car, I judged that the fire in the car was caused by an explosion inside the car, and the explosion occurred from the inside out. of."
"Are you saying that the car exploded and caught fire because this person detonated the grenade?" Nanzhe Banyoko had already heard something strange from the trace expert's account. Banyoko Nanzhe had already secretly observed the street where the car accident occurred when he arrived. It is actually not an easy task to attack a super high school car in such a crowded street, especially when the car caught fire due to an explosion.
"That's right!" The trace expert squatting next to the corpse nodded. "I just conducted a deduction. The Nantian team reported that they captured a resister in the French Concession. According to the operational regulations, if they capture the person, they should be sent back to the headquarters for interrogation or single-person detention as soon as possible. I deduced that Nantian After the team caught the person, they may not have carefully searched the prisoner's body, which led to the prisoner hiding a grenade. Seeing that there was no hope of his escape, the prisoner who was controlled in the back seat of the car simply detonated the grenade."
After listening to the trace expert's analysis, Banheng Nanzhe did not speak. Although he did not express his position, he basically agreed with the trace expert's analysis. "You said they were squatting next to the corpse. What were they talking about?" While Banyoko Nanzhe was listening to the trace expert's analysis, Hans and Tang Cheng in the restaurant across the street were also watching with interest. Hans even had time. Think about what Banyoko Nanzhe said to the trace expert.
Hearing this, Tang Cheng put down the beer bottle in his hand, "What else can I say? I guess the man with the beard may be a trace expert from the Special Higher Education Course. You see the way he was rummaging through the body and checking the car before, he must be looking for Traces. The sharp-faced man who came just now, at first glance, is the head of these plainclothes agents. With all the heads here, the little guys working below will naturally report the situation immediately." Hans heard this and nodded again and again, which was regarded as Agree with Tang Cheng's statement.
The two of them drank wine and chatted in Tang Cheng, watching the activities outside the restaurant. More than an hour passed without realizing it, until Tang Cheng accidentally saw the figure of Xu Huanshan passing by outside the restaurant. Why is this guy here? Thinking that this street was full of plainclothes agents and concession patrols, Tang Cheng couldn't help but worry about Xu Huanshan. "I'm going to go back and pack my things first, and I'll come back to you tomorrow morning." Tang Cheng did not tell Hans the truth, but just found a reason, got up and left.
Tomorrow is the day to board the ship. Naturally, Hans has no doubts about Tang Cheng. He just wants Tang Cheng not to forget the time tomorrow. Tang Cheng was well-dressed, and he saw Hans, a big-nosed foreigner, escorting Tang Cheng out of the restaurant in person. Banheng Nanzhe, who was standing across the street, just glanced at Tang Cheng casually and stopped paying attention to Tang Cheng. After leaving the restaurant, Tang Cheng walked eastward along the street. He passed Xu Huanshan outside the restaurant before, but now he was only forty or fifty meters away in front of Tang Cheng.
He walked around Tangcheng and bought some snacks from street vendors from time to time. In a short time, he was carrying a lot of things in his hands. Xu Huanshan, who had been walking in front, didn't seem to notice that someone was already following him faintly behind him, but Tang Cheng, who was following from a distance, could clearly see that among the passers-by on the opposite side of the street, there were at least three plainclothes agents from the Special High School, who were secretly there. Following Xu Huanshan. Tang Cheng remained calm and just moved at a constant speed. But if you carefully observe Tang Cheng's steps, you will find that each step of Tang Cheng is much longer than that of the average person.
Xu Huanshan, who was not aware that danger was approaching him, slowed down after walking straight through the intersection in front of him. The plainclothes agents following him couldn't help but feel happy when they saw the target slowing down. They all saw that Xu Huanshan did not look like an ordinary person. Xu Huanshan slowed down because the person he was meeting gave a meeting address on this street, but the other party did not give a specific location, so Xu Huanshan needed to see the person first.
After a night of careful consideration, Xu Huanshan made an appointment with an acquaintance of his. According to Xu Huanshan's understanding of this acquaintance, this person would never betray the organization. Entering the agreed street, Xu Huanshan did not see the acquaintance he had made an appointment to meet, and he had no idea that the acquaintance he wanted to meet had already arrived on this street. This acquaintance was currently in a street-facing room on the second floor of a shop on the street, looking at Xu Huanshan from the street-facing window.
There was a problem within the Shanghai underground party organization. Tang Cheng and Xu Huanshan were not the only ones to think of this. Because of the successive incidents that led to the arrest of many members of the underground party organization, some people within the Shanghai underground party organization began to wonder if there was something wrong within them. . Xu Huanshan, who was originally affiliated with Shanghai's underground party organization, reappeared in Shanghai six months after leaving and used an emergency contact signal to contact him. The person who received the contact signal would inevitably make some arrangements in advance.
The person behind the street-facing window on the second floor was observing Xu Huanshan from a high position. After a short time, he discovered that Xu Huanshan was being followed. Under such circumstances, as a senior member of the underground party who has been active in enemy-occupied areas for a long time, it is absolutely impossible for him to come forward to meet Xu Huanshan. Xu Huanshan looked down at his watch and realized that the agreed meeting time had passed. He realized that something was wrong, but when he turned around to leave, he realized that a suspicious person appeared behind him.
