The sun was high in the sky, making people feel warm, but Matsumoto only felt chills in his body. Just now, when Matsumoto came over to join us as agreed, a group of men in short shirts suddenly rushed into the teahouse on the street. Then Matsumoto watched helplessly as his contact person was escorted out of the teahouse by several men in short shirts. Matsumoto's reaction was not slow. He immediately used the passers-by around him as a cover to cover himself, and paid attention to the situation of these men in short shirts.
Iro Matsumoto, whose pseudonym is Zhou Hai, didn't know at this moment that he was already being targeted from the moment he walked into the street along the left corner. The men in short shirts who came out of the teahouse did not pay attention to Matsumoto, but in a window on the second floor of the teahouse, two middle-aged men with stern faces stared at Matsumoto standing in the crowd without blinking. The men in short shirts who came out of the teahouse quickly escorted people away from the street. Seeing that there was no excitement to be seen, the passers-by immediately dispersed.
Matsumoto, who was standing in the crowd on the street, could only follow the crowd away at this time, but behind him, a man and a woman appeared. Judging from the direction of their eyes, it was obvious that they were secretly observing Matsumoto. The contact person was suddenly arrested, and Matsumoto was panicked. Although he suppressed the panic in his heart, his unknowingly faster and faster pace exposed the panic and uneasiness in his heart. The man and woman following him did not notice any counter-reconnaissance actions by the target person in front of him along the way.
A target that did not know the counter-reconnaissance means was something that the action team members had not thought of in advance. In the past, the targets they monitored and tracked would always use various counter-reconnaissance methods inadvertently. After walking through two intersections in a row, the panic in Matsumoto's heart gradually dissipated a lot, and his previous vigilance finally returned. The man and woman who immediately noticed something strange, after Matsumoto implemented the counter-reconnaissance method for the second time, walked across the street and walked into the shop on the street as if nothing had happened.
Through the street window of the street shop, Matsumoto had already begun to doubt the man and woman walking behind him. At this moment, he suddenly saw the man and woman crossing the street and going to the shop on the opposite street. Matsumoto secretly breathed a sigh of relief. No other abnormalities were found. Matsumoto turned around and left, but little did he know that a middle-aged woman carrying a vegetable basket was quickly following him about 20 meters behind him. The man and woman just now and the middle-aged woman now are actually tracking members of the action team, and Matsumoto is their mission target.
That day, after Tang Cheng was forced to accept the task assigned by the bureau, he immediately started a search and investigation around the Nan'an Villa based on the information provided by the military command headquarters. After two consecutive days of searching, Tang Cheng and the others found no useful clues or information. It was not until the afternoon of the third day that Tang Cheng found two cigarette butts buried under the turf in the woods at the northern foot of the South Bank Villa. The Japanese and puppet spies that Tang Cheng captured after returning to Chongqing allowed Tang Cheng to draw a new skill from the system - item retrieval!
Tang Cheng, who was in a hurry, used this new skill to trace the two cigarette butts. Unexpectedly, he actually traced the owners of the two cigarette butts. By secretly monitoring and tracking the owner of the cigarette butt, Tangcheng and the others discovered two more suspicious targets, one of whom was Matsumoto's contact person today. As for why Matsumoto also exposed his identity, it was because when Matsumoto walked into this street, Tangcheng was at the intersection of the street and scanned Matsumoto with system skills.
At this moment, Matsumoto was not aware that the danger was approaching him step by step. He walked straight to the intersection in front of him and walked into the shop on the street under the eyes of the middle-aged woman behind him. Iro Matsumoto, whose pseudonym is Zhou Hai, runs a grocery store in this street. The original store owner is said to have returned to his hometown to enjoy his life. The middle-aged woman watched Matsumoto walk into the grocery store on the street, and she immediately turned around and left. Behind her, at the intersection of the street, she waited for her companions who were coming over.
The grocery store run by Matsumoto was quickly put under surveillance. When Tang Cheng received the report, he had already returned to the military camp with the prisoners. The action team currently has only one case, and that is the assassination operation of the Wuhan Special High School against the Chairman. Although the bureau leader said that the military commander had sabotaged the operation, the bureau leader still wanted to be prepared to deal with it. Therefore, what the action team is doing now is to conduct a new round of investigation from the outside to prevent Wuhan Special High School from sending others to carry out the assassination operation.
In the interrogation room in the basement, the prisoner's screams soon came. Standing in the corridor, Tang Cheng continued to smoke calmly. Tang Cheng's attitude towards Japanese and puppet spies had always been harsh to the end. The prisoner's screams continued for a long time, and finally someone came out of the interrogation room. Tang Cheng turned around and looked over. The person who came out of the interrogation room was none other than Ma San, Tang Cheng's torturer specially seconded from the military command headquarters. Ma San, who was strong and burly, was already sweating profusely. It was obvious that he had been whipping the prisoners in the interrogation room.
Ma San, who came out of the interrogation room, did not speak, but nodded slightly to Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng then put the entire pack of cigarettes and lighters into Ma San's hands, and then entered the interrogation room. . The interrogation room was filled with the smell of blood, but Tang Cheng seemed not to smell the disgusting smell. He just looked at the prisoner fixed on the wooden frame with a calm expression. The prisoner, whose head and face were swollen, tried his best to raise his head and look at Tang Cheng. He found that the person standing in front of him was not the torturer with a sinister look just now. The prisoner on the wooden frame breathed a sigh of relief.
"When I arrested you, you must have already known who we are! There is no one else here, so why don't I tell you again, this is a special operations team under the military command, and I am Tang Cheng!" Tang Cheng said When the words "Special Operations Team" were said in the sentence, the prisoner on the wooden frame clearly reacted. Then when he heard Tang Cheng say his name, the prisoner raised his head and looked at Tang Cheng again. The prisoner's reaction clearly showed that he knew about Tang Cheng and the action team, which made Tang Cheng feel more confident.
"The person who was here just now is a torture expert that I specially seconded from the Military Command Headquarters. If you don't cooperate or plan to say nothing, then I will have to hand you over to him again. By the way, this person Two brothers who are masters of torture, one died in the Songhu battlefield and the other died in the Zhongtiao Mountain! If you fall into his hands, I can only guarantee your life or death, but I think he will definitely make you feel... Life is worse than death!" Tang Cheng then chuckled, but the man on the wooden frame was already trembling subconsciously.
"Actually, you don't have to be so tough, because we didn't catch you by chance, but because we already have definite evidence in our hands." Tang Cheng said this. Naturally, the man on the wooden frame would not He admitted it, so after Tang Cheng paused for a moment, Bai continued. "We started focusing on you two days ago. We have separately monitored and tracked the two people who have been in contact with you. One of them works in the city government and the other is a school teacher. Am I right? "
Tang Cheng's last words made the man on the wooden frame turn pale instantly. He did not expect that the young man in front of him had really mastered so many situations. "Moreover, you showed up at that teahouse today, ready to meet people! You may not know that the owner of that teahouse is a robe brother, and I have good relations with many robe brothers in the city. As long as their territory If there is a suspicious person in the house, I will always know it immediately, just like today!"
The slight smile on Tang Cheng's face was undoubtedly equivalent to a devil's smile in the eyes of this special agent, and it made his heart skip a beat. "We have also tracked the person you were supposed to meet with in the teahouse. Just now, I received a report that your contact entered a grocery store. I guess that grocery store is your contact It’s a place that people use to disguise themselves, but don’t worry, it won’t be long before he appears here!”
The two people who had been in contact with him have been exposed. Matsumoto, who was supposed to meet today, was also noticed. Yamada Jibei, who was fixed on the wooden frame, was completely panicked. Tang Cheng, who had been paying attention to the other party's changes, grinned and chuckled again, "Do you know how we discovered you? When my team members are performing tasks, they all know that they are not allowed to carry items related to their work and identity! Yes! Sometimes, even a small habit will expose you to the eyes of interested people."
"It's because you were too careless this time that you were targeted by us!" Tang Cheng said with a smile. He reached out and took out a small paper bag from his pocket. When he opened the paper bag, there were two shriveled and deformed ones inside. Cigarette butts. Seeing that there were only two shriveled cigarette butts in the paper bag, Yamada Jibei looked at Tang Cheng with some confusion, and the latter continued. "Do you know where I found these two cigarette butts?"
Yamada Jihei obviously did not recognize these two cigarette butts, so he was unable to answer Tang Cheng's rhetorical question, "If I say that I found these two cigarette butts in the woods at the northern foot of Nan'an Villa, do you have any Impression?" The woods at the northern foot of Nan'an Villa? These words in Tang Cheng's words instantly made Yamada Jibei's eyes widen, and then he immediately looked at the two cigarette butts in Tang Cheng's hands with an incredible look.
"That's right! These two cigarette butts were the ones you left behind at that time! Under normal circumstances, no one can find usable clues with these two cigarette butts! It's a pity that you don't know that some of my men are good at the art of crowing and stealing. A master! We were able to find you not by these two cigarette butts, but by your habit of smoking and always biting the cigarette butts! There are not many people with your smoking habit in Chongqing. You usually appear here and there. There were no less than 10 people in the place who reported you to us."
