In order to prove that what he said was true, Uncle Zhang, who ran a bookstore and was good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, even drew a picture of the flying fish suit that Tang Cheng wore at that time in the bookstore before Xie Rulin arrived, based on his own memory. "This is what I drew from memory before you came. Although the drawing is not complete, there is generally no problem. If you hadn't come, I would have taken this drawing and went to find some old friends to confirm it again. one time."
Uncle Zhang's words and the still-dry painting in front of him made Xie Rulin's original suspicion not dissipate, but intensified. "Uncle Zhang, even if you all heard that shouting at that time, you would still have seen someone wearing the same clothes as on the stage. But the Jinyiwei were hundreds of years ago, not to mention they were mortal enemies of the Qing government. How could they Maybe it continues to this day?" Xie Rulin's words sounded fine, but Uncle Zhang also insisted on what he heard and saw.
During the time when Xie Rulin was in the bookstore with Uncle Zhang, the news about Jin Yiwei in the concession spread quickly. Like Xie Rulin, the Shanghai underground party also received this news, and they were also confused. However, the senior leaders of the Shanghai underground party organization did not have the extra energy to pay attention to this matter at the moment, because when the cinema was attacked, one of their traffic officers was outside the cinema where the incident occurred. According to the traffic officer's later recollection, if gunshots had not been heard in the cinema at that time, he might have entered the cinema and been arrested.
"We must find this person!" After learning that someone shot and killed multiple Japanese puppet spies and Japanese military police in a movie theater, the top leaders of the Shanghai underground party organization, without knowing whether the other party was an enemy or a friend, just ordered a rights collection and attack on the movie theater. Relevant clues and information. At this time, Tangcheng had already returned to the small courtyard he rented in Hongkou District. No one would have thought that this young man who always had a chuckle on his face had just done a big thing in the concession.
Jinyiwei, this name is unfamiliar to most Chinese people, because of the bad taste of Tangcheng, it quickly spread in Shanghai. Several plainclothes agents of No. 76 even claimed that they had personally seen the hard-core carved feather arrows used to kill a large number of Japanese military police at that time. At first glance, it was not a prop used on the stage, but a murderous weapon. That night, in the Shanghai Concession, where people were still singing and dancing, the streets and alleys were filled with Japanese spies and gang members in plain clothes. They had only one mission tonight, which was to find the attacker dressed as a Jinyiwei.
Tang Cheng, who was hiding in Hongkou District, was drinking and chatting with two new Japanese expats in an izakaya near his residence. Isamu Kimura's residence is on the street in front of this izakaya. Even when Tang Cheng is standing in the room on the left side of the second floor of the izakaya, you can see the back window of Isamu Kimura's residence from the window. According to the intelligence provided by the military commander, Isamu Kimura does not have the habit of drinking, but this person is determined to climb up the ladder, and necessary outings are indispensable.
When Tang Cheng caused trouble in the concession before, it was not that he had to take action when things came to pass. He only did that. His main purpose was to mess up the concession and force the Japanese and puppet agents with low abilities to dare not do anything again in the short term. Go to the concession. Kimura Isamu is not a person with outstanding abilities. The reason why he has been able to get through in Shanghai's special high school until now is not because of his ability, but because he has no bottom line in flattering his superiors. The original order given by the bureau chief to Tang Cheng was to kill Kimura Isamu and then return to Chongqing immediately, but now, Tang Cheng has modified the original plan.
Because the Japanese army is pressing forward step by step and the foreign forces in the concession are retreating step by step, the current situation in Shanghai is very serious. Tang Cheng did not expect that his arrival would be able to reverse the current situation in Shanghai. All he wanted to do was to make good use of this opportunity and leave an unforgettable memory to the Japanese army in Shanghai. "Oda-kun, have you heard? Today in the concession, someone attacked the military police and plainclothes field officers of the Special High School. It is said that many people died!"
The three people in Tangcheng chatted about their own affairs without saying a word. Behind them, several Japanese military policemen were also chatting lively. Hearing these military policemen talking about the movie theater, Tang Cheng did not look back, but continued to chat quietly with the two Japanese expatriates he had just met. Just looking at the reactions of the two Japanese expatriates, these two guys seemed I also heard the chats of these military policemen. The battle ahead was stalemate, and the Japanese army began to recruit a large number of new soldiers. Even the military police stationed in Shanghai began to add new soldiers.
The Japanese military police sitting behind them in Tangcheng were all new recruits who had just come from Japan this year, so they were brazenly chatting about the movie theater during the day in the izakaya. In fact, the three people from Tangcheng were not the only ones eavesdropping on the chat of these military policemen. Even the proprietress of the izakaya sat over at some point, pretending to help pour the wine, and was eavesdropping on the chatter of these gendarmes.
Many people are like this. They are originally honest people, but as soon as they drink, the honest people immediately become dishonest. This was the case for these new recruits who had just been recruited from Japan. When they entered the izakaya, each of them looked very polite and their voices were not too loud. But now, after drinking a few glasses of wine, the few people who seemed to be honest at first have begun to talk about the matter of being tightly blocked by the Special High School and the Military Police Headquarters.
Tang Cheng listened calmly for a while and found that the military policemen behind him were just repeating those words over and over again. He knew that these guys might have heard the news from other people. "It's almost done, I'm going back first!" Tang Cheng suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart, put down the wine glass in his hand, and then stood up to leave. "Mrs. Juzi, there are some things that it is not a good thing to know too much!" Before leaving, Tang Cheng did not forget to remind the proprietress of the izakaya.
Perhaps God was also cooperating with Tang Cheng. Just when the proprietress looked up at Tang Cheng with a puzzled look, two military police officers came in from outside the door. The new military police officers were talking loudly, and the two Japanese officers who had just come in immediately heard what they were discussing loudly, and their expressions changed greatly. When Tang Cheng got up, he had been paying attention to the situation in the izakaya out of the corner of his eye. These two Japanese officers who had just entered were naturally the targets of Tang Cheng's attention.
Seeing that the faces of the two Japanese officers changed drastically and they were heading this way in a daze, Tang Cheng immediately nodded slightly to the proprietress, then took two steps to his left, first turning on the loud-sounding ones behind him. The new military policeman who spoke was revealed. Looking at the reactions of the two Japanese officers, Tang Cheng was worried that trouble would arise again soon, so he tried to use the new military police officers behind him to attract the attention of the two Japanese officers, so as to buy himself time to get out of here. and opportunities.
But what Tang Cheng didn't expect was that just when he was about to leave in a low-key manner, the proprietress of the izakaya did not immediately go to greet the two Japanese officers. Instead, she reached out and grabbed the hem of Tang Cheng's kimono. Tang Cheng was stunned subconsciously, and immediately heard one of the Japanese officers shouting loudly, "Everyone, please sit down and don't move, otherwise you will be taken away by the military police." The Japanese officer who spoke wore the rank of lieutenant, and he The words immediately silenced the izakaya.
Tang Cheng, who could only sit down at the moment, didn't know whether he should thank the proprietress of the izakaya or glare at her. The other Japanese officer was a second lieutenant, but among the two, his face was even more angry. "Asshole, what were you talking about just now? Didn't your superiors tell you that private discussion of this matter is not allowed?" The grumpy Japanese second lieutenant rounded up his right hand and slapped the recruits one by one.
The new recruits who were slapped all lowered their heads in fear. Only then did they remember that their superiors had indeed said that they were not allowed to discuss the cinema. The actions of the Japanese second lieutenant made the izakaya proprietress and others secretly panic. Tang Cheng, who was sitting next to the proprietress, also pretended to be scared, lowering his eyes and not daring to look around. Fortunately, the lieutenant officer was still rational. After looking around at the other people in the izakaya, his eyes fell on the proprietress.
"Mrs. Juzi, I guess you didn't see or hear anything just now, right?" The lieutenant officer's voice was a bit cold. The landlady nodded hurriedly, saying yes again and again, and the others also nodded. Garlic is average. Perhaps because Tang Cheng was sitting next to the proprietress and he looked young, the lieutenant officer just glanced at Tang Cheng and paid no attention to him. Tang Cheng, who had always been cautious, subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and quickly left the izakaya with the others.
When he returned to his residence later, he did not go to bed immediately, but began to check weapons and ammunition. Early the next morning, Tang Cheng followed the flow of people out of Hongkou District and entered the concession. Today he would first rent a room in the concession as a temporary residence. Tang Cheng left a mark in the concession yesterday. He was originally planning to contact the Military Command Shanghai Station, but the incident in the cinema caused Tang Cheng to change his original plan again.
He is not planning to contact the Military Reunion Shanghai Station right now. Now that the drama has begun, when will it end depends on whether the special high school program is successful. Compared with yesterday, there seemed to be more plainclothes agents in the concession. Along the way to Tangcheng, they had been secretly observed by several waves of suspicious-looking guys. Tang Cheng remained calm and just rented a room in an apartment building as planned. Tangcheng chose to rent an apartment here not because the landlord was a Belarusian, but because this apartment building happened to be at the intersection of a three-way street, which was very suitable for Tangcheng to evacuate at any time.
