The middle-aged woman stuffed the paper roll into the crack in the wall. It was actually a wall tile that had been deliberately manipulated. As long as the volume was not too large, paper rolls or small items could be stuffed into the wall crack of this movable wall tile. . After carefully looking at the scroll of paper retrieved by his team members, Tang Cheng was silent for a moment and immediately used the hotel phone to call back to the military camp. "Uncle, Jiro Kobayashi cannot be handed over to the military commander. I have discovered a new situation here. I will tell you in detail when I get back."
Tang Cheng did not talk to Zhang Jianghe on the phone. He just said a few words and hung up the phone, which made Zhang Jianghe on the other end of the phone very puzzled. After Tangcheng hung up the phone, he sent someone to call the hotel owner. After some discussions, Tangcheng bought this hotel from the owner, which was not doing well, at a price that was 30% higher than the market price. hostel. Tang Cheng bought the hotel with his own money, so he didn't discuss it with Zhang Jianghe at all.
"From now on, this is the base of our search team's activities in the city. On the surface, it is still open to the public. However, our people must hide their identities when entering and exiting here. Except for the few rooms that have been used so far, other rooms can be used For external business, the hotel manager and waiters can use our own people." After seeing off the happy hotel owner, Tang Cheng convened a meeting with the team members in the hotel to show them that he had paid to buy this place.
"I have just read the note that the new target put in the dead mailbox. It seems that the situation is as I speculated before. The hotel clerk we caught, Jiro Kobayashi, is basically a professional killer. He is going to do it The thing is to follow the instructions in the dead mailbox and eliminate the unrest among the Japanese and puppet spies or the traitors bribed by them. So I decided to use this place as a long-term stronghold to monitor this dead mailbox, and then expand the scope of surveillance."
Among all the team members present, no one raised any objection. Compared with hiding in a small attic or rooftop to monitor the target, they would rather stay in this hotel and monitor the target. The search team owns many shops in the city, and these shops are all run by the team members' family members. Therefore, Tang Cheng mentioned that the shopkeepers and waiters of this hotel are also run by the team members' family members. Zhao Dashan and others immediately rushed to recommend themselves. Think of your own family.
About an hour later, the hotel manager and waiters were already in place. They learned the search team's intention to buy the hotel. The family members of these team members did not say much about the purchase. The two groups of tracking team members who were following the middle-aged woman now had news coming back, saying that they followed the middle-aged woman holding an oil-paper umbrella all the way to the private residence of a high-ranking official. After hearing the news, Tang Cheng couldn't help but frown secretly. He was originally in a good mood, but felt that he needed to go back to the military camp.
Tang Cheng suddenly returned to the military camp, and Zhang Jianghe was even more puzzled. However, after listening to Tang Cheng's explanation, Zhang Jianghe had to admit that Tang Cheng's mind was spinning fast enough. "There's nothing I can do about it! The outside world spent a lot of effort to lock down the dead mailbox, and after staring at it for a long time, I finally found a target that activated the dead mailbox. But no one expected that, Our newly discovered target can actually enter and leave the private residence of a senior official freely. Our search team cannot afford to offend such a person."
Tang Cheng said he was very aggrieved, but looking at Tang Cheng's appearance at the moment, Zhang Jianghe clearly wanted to shirk the blame, but Zhang Jianghe still had to cooperate with Tang Cheng and call the military command headquarters to report the situation. Zhang Jianghe called the bureau chief's office with a look of helplessness. After simply explaining the situation on the phone, the bureau chief on the other end of the phone immediately prepared to come to the military camp. Zhang Jianghe put down the phone and turned around to look at Tang Cheng, only to find that the latter was lying on the sofa carelessly, looking extremely lazy.
"Uncle, don't look at me like that! Tell yourself, does this matter require the intervention of the military commander to coordinate it? Our search team's name is just enough to scare those smugglers or poor robe brothers. If we really meet a big boss who holds power, we won't even know how unlucky we are." Tang Cheng looked at Zhang Jianghe with an unhappy expression. Although Tang Cheng's words sounded uncomfortable, Zhang Jianghe But he couldn't fault Tang Cheng's words.
After Zhang Jianghe sat down on the sofa opposite with an expressionless expression, Tang Cheng sat up straight and took the initiative to pour tea for Zhang Jianghe with a smile. "I have bought that hotel and plan to use it as a base of operations in the city." When Tang Cheng said that he had spent a lot of money to buy the hotel, Zhang Jianghe was about to stare, but Tang Cheng picked him up. When I came down, I was gagged. "My decision to buy the hotel was not a decision made on the spur of the moment. After you listen to my plan, you will say that I spent my money well!"
While Tang Cheng was talking, he reached out from his pocket and took out the previous scroll of paper and handed it to Zhang Jianghe, "This is the instruction we found in that dead mailbox today! Do you still remember my inference about the identity of Jiro Kobayashi?" Based on this order and Jiro Kobayashi's confession, I can now be absolutely certain that this guy is a killer who does underworld work, a killer specially used by the Japanese intelligence agency to clean up his own people." Tang Cheng's words made Zhang Jiang and his brows He frowned, but he did not interrupt Tang Cheng with a word, but motioned for Tang Cheng to continue.
Seeing the hint in Zhang Jianghe's eyes, Tang Cheng paused in his tone and had no choice but to continue. "When I saw this instruction in the hotel, I was thinking, why can't we make good use of this dead mailbox? According to Jiro Kobayashi's confession, all his contacts with other people were completed through this dead mailbox. , which means that this Kobayashi Jiro has never met anyone else, whether online or offline."
After what Tang Cheng said, Zhang Jianghe finally understood, so he interrupted Tang Cheng. "So, you want to use this hotel to conduct long-term surveillance of this dead mailbox. Then join forces with the military command headquarters and use our advantages to monitor and track all targets who have come into contact with this dead mailbox?" Zhang Jianghe's words were simple and direct. , but it hit exactly what Tang Cheng was thinking. When Tang Cheng heard this, he immediately nodded in agreement, because that was what he was thinking when he decided to pay for the hotel.
"Yes, that's what I thought at the time. Even if my idea fails in the end, at least we still have a hotel. The hotel owner and waiters are still the family members of the team members as usual, so this can be considered If you win people's hearts, we won't suffer any loss inside or outside!" Tang Cheng's shameless look made Zhang Jiang and his teeth itch, but after careful consideration of Tang Cheng's words, there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.
Because the bureau chief said on the phone that he was coming to the military camp, Tang Cheng did not leave. He just stayed in Zhang Jianghe's office, waiting for the bureau chief's arrival. The two of them chatted without a word. After about half an hour, the director finally drove to the military camp. In front of the bureau chief, Tang Cheng once again described his plan. After hearing this, the bureau chief did not immediately express his position, but asked Zhang Jianghe what he meant. Zhang Jianghe naturally would not object to Tang Cheng's plan, and Tang Cheng's plan was indeed very practical.
In order to convince the bureau chief, Tang Cheng even moved the blackboard from the conference room and drew a contact chart on the blackboard in front of the bureau chief and Zhang Jianghe. "This triangle meets the criteria for Jiro Kobayashi, who we have already captured, and this × represents Sasaki who died in the hotel. This diamond is the new target we just discovered today, that is, the middle-aged woman who contacted and used the dead mailbox. "Tang Cheng was explaining in his mouth, but his right hand had already used chalk to mark the connecting lines between these figures.
The connections made by Tang Cheng finally pointed to the circular diagram representing the dead mailbox. From this intuitive connection diagram, the director and Zhang Jianghe immediately understood what Tang Cheng wanted to express. . "According to Jiro Kobayashi's confession, this Sasaki almost leaked the contents of the operation because of a drunken gaffe. Later, he framed his companions in an attempt to evade responsibility. After being discovered by his superiors, he secretly tried to contact the British in order to seek asylum from the British. Kobayashi Jiro then received the order to clean up Sasaki.”
"It can be seen that what Kobayashi Jiro does is to clean up the internal work, so he can never meet the person who uses the dead mailbox to contact him." At this point, Tang Cheng hit the chalk in his hand heavily. On the blackboard is the circle that represents the dead mailbox. "As long as we have control of this dead mailbox, Japanese and puppet spies will continue to use this dead mailbox to contact Jiro Kobayashi. In other words, at that time, there will be unknowing Japanese and puppet spies rushing to join the trap."
Bureau Zuo and Zhang Jianghe, who didn't know that Tang Cheng had system skills, actually didn't support Tang Cheng's plan very much. Because based on their years of experience in fighting against Japanese and puppet spies, the Japanese and puppet spies lurking in Chongqing would not be so stupid. But Tang Cheng still insisted on implementing this plan, because monitoring this dead mailbox was just a part of his life, otherwise he would not be able to conceal his system skills for a long time.
Dead mailboxes are indeed useful. The middle-aged woman they found and targeted in Tangcheng today is the best proof. Moreover, Tang Cheng used his own money to buy this hotel and spent his own money to serve the country. Not even the bureau chief could stop Tang Cheng. In the end, the bureau did not organize Tangcheng to implement this plan, but Tangcheng did not obtain the full support of the military command. The bureau only agreed that the search team would continue to hand over clues to the military command headquarters.
Zhang Jianghe was somewhat disappointed without the full support of the military commander, but Tang Cheng did not think so. The Bureau did not allocate manpower to support the search team, but he agreed that the search team could hand over clues to the Second Military Command Division, such as the middle-aged woman discovered and targeted today. In other words, the bureau can bear the unfavorable factors that may arise from the incident, and Tang Cheng, who does not want to cause trouble, is eager to do so.
