Tang Cheng went to Shanghai several times, and the tasks were completed very well. The bureau also came from Tang Cheng's mouth. He heard more than once that Tang Cheng knew many foreigners in Shanghai. Therefore, he didn't completely believe what Tang Cheng was saying at this moment, but he didn't believe it either. As Tang Cheng spoke, he was actually paying attention to the bureau chief's reaction. Seeing the suspicion in the bureau chief's eyes, Tang Cheng understood in his heart and immediately changed his tone. "My friend is a German-American. He also has an uncle who serves in the German Wehrmacht. It is said that he has contact with many upper-level figures in the German Wehrmacht."
Although the bureau chief had never been to Germany, the Nationalist Government had previously invited senior officers of the German Wehrmacht to come to China to guide the formation of the so-called German Arms Division, so he was not unfamiliar with some things about the German army. Tang Cheng's specious answers succeeded in confusing Bureau Zuo to a large extent, and also caused his thoughts to shift from the topic just now to other directions. The bureau chief did not speak for a long time, and Tang Cheng also paused, just winking at each other with Zhang Jianghe.
"What you just said, it's best to get a written report first. This matter still needs to wait for the chairman's decision." The bureau chief had the idea of forming a similar arrest team, but what he said to Tang Cheng Special Forces knows nothing about it, and without the support of the Generalissimo, he can do nothing. The bureau chief's decision did not go beyond Tang Cheng's expectations, so he didn't say anything more and just nodded in agreement according to the bureau chief's wishes.
The bureau leader suddenly came to the military camp, but took the people away without saying anything. Tang Cheng was very puzzled by this. "It's none of your business, just stop asking!" Zhang Jianghe, who was questioned by Tang Cheng, just glared at Tang Cheng angrily, but did not give a reasonable answer. Zhang Jianghe's reaction was obviously that something was wrong, but if Zhang Jianghe didn't want to say it, Tangcheng couldn't force Zhang Jianghe to give an answer.
In the next few days, there was no movement at the bureau desk. The written report that Tang Cheng had prepared long ago was also stuffed into a drawer and no one paid attention to it. Fortunately, Tang Cheng didn't care about this. He just resumed his work all day long. A day spent wandering around the city. The Chongqing underground party's cloth shop was visited twice by Tangcheng to discredit it, once to send money and once to send weapons and ammunition, which made Huang Pingle, who had been sticking to the backyard of the cloth shop, blossom.
Tangcheng, who had just had lunch, had nothing to do, so he stayed in the hotel that the search team used as a stronghold in the city to drink tea. After the pot of tea had cooled down, he saw Zhao Dashan taking three steps and two steps at a time, walking quickly from outside. Come in. "Captain, there's a situation!" Zhao Dashan, whose face was covered with sweat, reached out and grabbed the tea cup next to Tang Cheng, tilted his neck and poured it into his throat. After drinking two cups of tea in a row, Zhao Dashan let out a long breath and sat down opposite Tangcheng.
"Brothers, the teacher we were keeping an eye on last time has not given up surveillance these days. Just this morning, a group of our people finally found the old boy's clues!" Zhao Dashan said with a smug look on his face. He took out a roll of paper from his pocket and handed it to Tang Cheng. "Our people found this. It was something the target hid in the dead mailbox. I looked at it a few times, but I didn't understand the content." Amid Zhao Dashan's chatter, Tang Cheng opened the scroll. , and it turned out that I couldn’t understand what was written on the paper.
Tang Cheng could only be patient and thought over and over for a while, only to find that the content on the scroll was simply a piece of written information in a three-word puzzle format. The three-word puzzle format defined by Tangcheng means that no matter how confusing the content on the scroll is, you only need to recombine the content on the scroll every three characters to get a smooth text. After determining that he could unravel the contents on the scroll, Tang Cheng took the pen and paper, copied the contents of the scroll as it was, and then handed the scroll back to Zhao Dashan.
"You send this thing back now, as it is, as if nothing happened, and ask our people to keep an eye on the place where this thing is placed. Let's follow the clues this time." Although Tang Cheng did not say it clearly, Zhao Dashan had already seen from Tang Cheng's reaction that Tang Cheng seemed to have deciphered the contents of the scroll. In a heavy mood, he reached out his hand to accept the scroll handed to him by Tang Cheng, and immediately stood up and left. After Zhao Dashan left, Tang Cheng, who had originally planned to stay in the hotel, also got up and left the hotel.
After leaving the hotel, Tang Cheng immediately returned to the military camp and went to Zhang Jianghe with the recruitment information. In Zhang Jianghe's office, Tang Cheng, who explained his intention, reorganized the transcribed content into a smooth-talking one in front of Zhang Jianghe. After reading the content of the reorganization of Tangcheng, Zhang Jianghe's face became serious. He did not expect that after the joint investigation and arrest by the search team and the military commander, there were actually people in Chongqing who maintained secret contacts with the Japanese in private for their own benefit.
"Uncle, this matter is definitely not something we can control. I think it's best to report it to the bureau first to avoid getting into trouble later." Seeing Zhang Jianghe's hesitation, Tang Cheng simply said Give your own suggestions. At this time, most of the people who dared to keep in touch with the Japanese were those who held high positions and were not optimistic about the development of the war. Although the search team has made countless achievements, if they really offend those high-ranking people, they will definitely be in trouble afterwards.
"Uncle, I'm not just guessing. Do you really think that the person living in the South Bank villa is not someone in the government who is secretly keeping in touch with the Japanese? I guess he must know, he just doesn't know how many people are following him. The Japanese are just connected! So, for this kind of thing, if we rush to the front, it will not help at all. It is best to report this matter immediately, and then we can just be a common people and don't get involved. " Seeing Zhang Jianghe's delay in responding, Tang Cheng had no choice but to speak more directly.
After Zhang Jianghe was silent for a while, he nodded to Tang Cheng and said, "I just thought about it and you are right. We can't get involved in this matter, otherwise we won't be able to get out!" Facing Tang Cheng, Zhang Jianghe stood up and walked to his desk, reached for the phone and called the bureau directly. Just like Zhang Jianghe's reaction after reading the content just now, the bureau chief on the other end of the phone just listened to Zhang Jianghe's general remarks and immediately interrupted Zhang Jianghe's report. He asked Zhang Jianghe to take Tang Cheng to the military command office immediately. Headquarters.
Tang Cheng had no choice but to follow Zhang Jianghe and immediately go to the military command headquarters because this was the order from the bureau chief. In the bureau chief's office, Tang Cheng first took out the two texts with completely different contents and handed them to the bureau chief. Then he explained the whole story to the bureau chief in detail, and also demonstrated on the spot how he cracked the text. of confusing text. "I have already asked people to put the original document back far away, and also deployed manpower to keep an eye on the dead mailbox. As long as someone triggers the dead mailbox, my people will definitely be able to bite the new target."
If you don't know Tangcheng well and have confidence in the ability of the search team, people who don't understand the situation will definitely think that the guarantee made by Tangcheng at this moment is just perfunctory. But before Tang Cheng and the others arrived at the Military Command Headquarters, the bureau chief had already decided to hand over the case to the Second Military Command Division, so no matter what guarantees Tang Cheng made at this moment, the bureau chief would ask the search team to withdraw from the case. This case is very sensitive. This is the consensus reached between Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe on the way to the military command headquarters.
So after hearing that the bureau chief wanted the search team to withdraw from the case, Tang Cheng, who looked angry on the surface, secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, what he just promised was not too much. With this case, I will be in trouble. Among the other two people present, Zhang Jianghe knew Tang Cheng. The decision he made at the meeting was basically consistent with Tang Cheng’s previous guess. Zhang Jianghe had nothing to say at this moment.
"Don't worry, Bureau Chief, I will go back and collect all the information related to this case. As long as the personnel of the Second Division are in place, the case and information will belong to the Second Division!" Tangcheng's general knowledge is not in vain. As compensation, the bureau chief gave Tang Cheng a approval note, allowing Tang Cheng to receive a batch of oil from the military command headquarters to be used for the daily activities of the search team. After receiving the approval slip, Tang Cheng was speechless, thinking to himself, are we the ones who missed this little oil? But in a blink of an eye, he went to the Logistics Department of the Military Command Headquarters and exchanged the oil commanded by the bureau commander and the people in the Logistics Department for gold bars.
Oil is now in short supply. Seeing that Tang Cheng only wanted money, but looked down on oil, the people in the logistics department of the military command headquarters secretly laughed at Tang Cheng for being a country bumpkin. But little did they know that since the search team had cars and trucks, when Tangcheng needed to refuel, he would drive directly to the garrison to find someone. The people from the garrison not only took the initiative to fill up the tank, but also stayed with Tang Cheng for meals every time. They wished that Tang Cheng would come over and fill up the tank every day.
In the city of Chongqing, people who are not familiar with Tangcheng only remember Tangcheng's arrogance and brutality. But everyone who is familiar with Tang Cheng knows that Tang Cheng has a lot of ways to make money. As long as the relationship with Tang Cheng is settled well and Tang Cheng gives a little guidance, it will be enough for the big guy to support his family. After Tang Cheng drove away from the military headquarters compound, he kept a smile on his face and the heavy gold bars in his pocket made Tang Cheng feel very good.
Zhang Jianghe, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, didn't understand. He couldn't figure out why Tang Cheng was so happy, but he asked several times, but Tang Cheng just smiled and didn't answer, which made Zhang Jianghe very angry. People from the Second Military Unification Division arrived very quickly. In front of Zhang Jianghe, Tang Cheng handed over all the files related to this case and also completed the personnel handover. From now on, this case will have nothing to do with the search team. If it causes trouble, it will also be trouble for the military commander.
