Most of the teahouses in Chongqing are related to Brother Pao's influence, and the same is true for the teahouse that Tang Cheng and others broke into. But after Tang Cheng showed his ID and pistol, the teahouse owner was afraid, because he had already heard about the power of the search team. Facing Tang Cheng's questioning, the teahouse owner and several waiters had different expressions, but Tang Cheng soon found the person among them who was worried. "Tell me about it, you only have one chance, I hope you don't make a mistake!"
Tang Cheng, holding a pistol in his right hand, stood in front of a teahouse waiter. Facing Tang Cheng's expressionless face, the teahouse waiter was already frightened and completely panicked. He wanted to say that he didn't know anything, but when faced with Tang Cheng's emotionless eyes, the teahouse waiter didn't dare to continue pretending not to know anything, so he could only tell what he knew. Knowing that the entire teahouse staff just helped Ma Laosi deliver a baggage out of respect for him, Tang Cheng asked where the baggage was sent.
"Before receiving the notice, you and your friends cannot leave here, otherwise you will be dead!" Tang Cheng, who got the exact address later, did not show joy on his expression, but a cold look on his face. Tell the teahouse manager. Tang Cheng and others came out of the teahouse and saw Lao Fu and the others. As Tang Cheng had guessed, Lao Fu and others did not find any useful clues. Tang Cheng then gave Lao Fu the address confessed by the teahouse clerk and asked Lao Fu to lead people to search the address, but he himself led people to continue tracking the traces left by the target.
"The target's foothold in this area has not been found. There are only two possibilities. One is that they really did not settle here. The other is that someone secretly helped them conceal their traces, so we need to increase the intensity of the search until we find out All traces of them here." Before separating from Lao Fu and others, Tang Cheng still firmed up his judgment and specifically reminded Lao Fu not to let the unfavorable situation in front of him affect his judgment.
Tang Cheng and Lao Fu each took several team members and separated at the street intersection in front. According to the information Tang Cheng had obtained, his current position was only one street away from the attackers' foothold in the south of the city. There was no way to share the information he learned with others, and Tang Cheng, who couldn't find a suitable reason, could only use this stupid method now, using the traces left by the target as a cover to get closer to the person who appeared in the memory fragments. Location.
Fortunately, Tang Cheng was cautious. Whether it was the previous hotel or the teahouse just now, facts proved that the target had appeared in these two places, so the search team members who followed Tang Cheng did not doubt Tang Cheng. After watching Lao Fu and others leave, Tang Cheng immediately led people into the street in front of him. Ten minutes later, Tang Cheng and others, whose search was fruitless, appeared at the next intersection at the end of the street. Now they were faced with two choices, but Tang Cheng knew that no matter whether they turned left or right, they would not be able to get close to the target's foothold.
"It's too hot. Let's find a place to drink some tea first." Tang Cheng's heart moved, and he immediately found a street intersection, crossed it directly, and went to the opposite street directly opposite the street entrance. The teahouse is a place where people from all walks of life come and go, and it is also a place where all kinds of news appear. Many people from the search team go in and out of this place to collect news. Tang Cheng's group occupied two tables in the teahouse, and after ordering some tea and snacks, Tang Cheng's team members habitually looked around the teahouse.
"Captain, I looked at the guy wearing the hat over there, something seems a little off!" Originally he was just looking around out of habit, but he didn't expect the team members under Tang Cheng, but he immediately discovered the situation. When Tang Cheng heard this, he did not look over immediately. Instead, he first picked up the tea cup in front of him, used the gesture of drinking tea as a cover, and then followed the line of sight of his team members. As expected, Tang Cheng saw a muscular man wearing a straw hat, but the attire of this muscular man was very inconsistent with the Cantonese-style straw hat on his head.
Cantonese-style straw hats worn by strong men are rare in Chongqing, but they are not unheard of. It's just that most of the people Tang Cheng saw wearing this kind of Cantonese-style straw hat in Chongqing were businessmen engaged in selling goods from the north and the south. This muscular man had a Jianghu aura about him, so Tang Cheng looked strange. "Captain, please pay attention to the leather shoes on that man's feet. I heard that Zhongtong's field officers like to wear these kind of leather shoes." The team member who was the first to notice the abnormality reminded Tang Cheng.
Although the Central Command and the Military Command are both privileged units, they also belong to government agencies, so they have certain dress requirements. The search team, which has no strict requirements for clothing, starting from Tangcheng, do not like to wear leather shoes. They stubbornly believe that although cloth shoes are not high-end, they can reduce the noise very well during operations. At this moment, they found that the muscular man was wearing the same leather shoes as Zhongtong Welfare. Tangcheng's first thought was to deduce whether this muscular man was a plainclothes operative of Zhongtong.
However, Tang Cheng only glanced at the man a few more times, but did not make a judgment. Compared with whether this guy was a plainclothes official, Tang Cheng was obviously more interested in the attack case. The muscular man found by Tang Cheng and the others was originally sitting alone in the corner of the teahouse. Just when Tang Cheng looked away, a man in a short shirt came in from outside the teahouse and quickly walked up to the muscular man. The two immediately started talking in a low voice.
"Captain, the man who just came in is the golden-headed old man on the dock. I heard that he used to be a spy." Such a coincidence made Tang Cheng feel that he was really lucky today. Unexpectedly, the man in a short shirt who just came in was himself. He also knows his team members. It was very interesting to ask around and talk quietly with a guy who looked like a plainclothes official from the Central Government, hiding in a corner of the teahouse. After Tang Cheng thought for a moment, he left two team members behind and asked them to stare at the muscular man for a while.
After Tang Cheng left the teahouse with the other team members, he followed his instructions and started searching the street where the teahouse was located. Sure enough, his team members took the two photos and quickly asked for clues in a shop on the street. The shopkeeper of this shop still remembered the face in one of the photos, saying that the man in the photo had come to his shop more than once to buy cigarettes and matches. "I have bought cigarettes and matches from here many times, which shows that the target must have a foothold around here."
Tang Cheng's words made the search team members nod in agreement. If he didn't live nearby, the target wouldn't have appeared here many times to buy cigarettes and matches. This new clue made Tang Cheng and others cautious, and their investigation process using the photos became much more secretive. The several search team members who had been led here by Tang Cheng did not know at this moment that they and others had already been exploited by Tang Cheng. If it weren't for Tang Cheng's deliberate guidance, it would have been impossible for them to discover new clues so quickly.
After some investigation, the alley in the middle of the street became the place they finally targeted in Tangcheng. Tang Cheng did not enter the alley immediately, but first arranged for someone to call for support, and then called several search team members around him to go to the other end of the alley. Ten minutes later, the hurried Lao Fu and others arrived here first. When they learned that Tang Cheng and the others had investigated where the attackers might have settled, Lao Fu and others immediately became excited.
"Leave two people to watch over here, and the rest of you will follow me in!" Tang Cheng, whose expression showed no trace of excitement, immediately led the people into the alley. According to his request, Lao Fu and the others had already drawn their pistols, loaded the bullets, and were ready to shoot at any time. There are not many residents in the alley, but the houses here are not very high. If Tang Cheng lived here, the walls and roofs of these yards could be used as a way to quickly evacuate.
So after Tang Cheng led people into the alley, he immediately arranged for his team members to climb onto the roof and monitor the residence from above. They didn’t know whether the enemy was prepared in advance or whether Tang Cheng’s team members made too much noise on the roof. When they searched outside the third courtyard one by one, Tang Cheng, who had been cautious all the time, faintly smelled something. There was a burning smell coming from the yard beside me. Tang Cheng, who was secretly complaining about something bad, could no longer care about that much at this time. He jumped directly over the wall and entered the courtyard.
In the courtyard that Tang Cheng had forced his way into, the door of the main house directly opposite the courtyard door was wide open, and a smoldering iron bucket was in the main house. As soon as Tang Cheng's feet landed, the m1911 pistol in his hand had already fired. The man squatting behind the iron bucket and burning something was accurately hit on the left shoulder by this shot. With the sound of gunshots, Lao Fu and others who were still outside the yard climbed up the wall one after another. At this time, Tang Cheng had already rushed into the main room and was extinguishing the fireworks in the tin bucket.
Tang Cheng's reaction was not slow, but he was still a step too late. The man he shot and injured had already thrown all the things that should be burned into the iron bucket, and Tang Cheng only had time to grab a small part. There was only this man in this courtyard, so after controlling him, all Tangcheng and the others could do was search the place carefully. Compared with Lao Fu and others who looked disappointed, Tang Cheng didn't realize how disappointed he was, because with the system in place, as long as the person was caught, Tang Cheng would have a chance to find other clues.
The search for this alley did not stop because of the arrest of this man. On the contrary, Lao Fu and the others were arranged by Tangcheng to do a lot of things. When the logistics team from the military camp arrived here, the entire alley was The residents have all been carefully investigated by Lao Fu and the others. "Search carefully for me. Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find useful clues." Tang Cheng, who was sitting in the yard, told the logistics team, and then he and Lao Fu began to fiddle with the iron bucket. The scraps of paper that were taken out.
