Although the bureau did not give a time limit, Tang Cheng knew that he could not delay for too long. Therefore, starting from the next day, Tang Cheng also joined the ranks of doing field work. After lunch, under Tang Cheng's deliberate guidance, the two plainclothes military commanders quickly turned from fatigue and numbness to ecstasy. After checking and investigating according to the clues, they were now 100% sure that the middle-aged man they were investigating was one of the people in the portraits in Tangcheng. Neither of them were newbies. Although they were ecstatic in their hearts, their expressions were still as numb as before.
Knowing that one of the people in the portrait had been found, other plainclothes military commanders who participated in the operation also became energetic. Tang Cheng, who pretended not to know, just smiled secretly in his heart, but his expression did not reveal the slightest hint of weakness. Dashu Baosan, whose pseudonym is Qian Sanbao, does not know that he has been exposed at this moment. According to the plan, he will go to see the contact person tomorrow. But he never expected that from now on, his every move would be under full surveillance.
Tang Cheng did not participate in the surveillance of Dashu Baosan. The person at the anti-smuggling department on the dock told him that there were four people related to the batch of cigarettes on the dock, so he still needed to find three other targets. The next morning, Dashu Baosan, who was under close surveillance, left his residence, but he did not go to see his contact person immediately, but began to wander around the city aimlessly. If Tang Cheng were here, he would definitely be able to tell that Dashu Baosan's current behavior was just because he was worried about being followed.
Unfortunately, among the plain-clothes military commanders who were following Dashu Baosan, there happened to be a novice who had come to the military command to get gold. This guy found that Dashu Baosan seemed to be deliberately going around in circles, and he became a little frustrated. Although his reckless behavior was stopped in time by his companions, Dashu Baosan was immediately alert. The other plainclothes military commanders who were following him had no choice but to arrest him in advance. Dashu Baosan, who was pinned down in the street, knew that something was wrong, so he struggled hard with a sense of luck, but the novice's gun went off and shot him through the heart.
Tang Cheng, who learned the result later, could only curse the newbie in his heart for bad things, but he still had to rush to the scene of the incident to see if there were any suspicious things or clues on the dead target. By the time Tang Cheng arrived at the scene of the incident, the rookie whose gun went off and killed the target had been sent back to the military command headquarters. "Under the circumstances, we had no choice but to arrest him by force. But no one expected that Xiao Fan's pistol would suddenly go off!"
The plainclothes military leader who was guarding the scene of the incident was worried that Tang Cheng would make a big fuss out of this incident, so he came over and explained a few words in a low voice. When Tang Cheng heard this, he pointed at the other party and laughed out loud, "Brother Ninth, you are digging a hole to harm me! We have not cooperated once or twice. When did you see me doing something bad behind my back? I don't believe you didn't I’ve seen the search team’s previous files. It’s not like the search team never missed a sudden arrest like this! Let’s see, when have I ever gotten angry with a team member who failed to arrest?”
Tang Cheng's words sounded like a joke, but in fact, Tang Cheng removed himself from this matter. I found the clues myself. The subsequent surveillance and tracking, including the current sudden arrest, were all from the military command. If something happened now, it should have nothing to do with Tangcheng. Brother Ninth, who was told that he was thinking about something, could only laugh bitterly twice, and then followed Tangcheng to investigate the scene. The target's belongings were very few, and all that could be found were a few banknotes, a pack of cigarettes, and half a box of matches.
"That's wrong!" These things looked normal, but something happened to Tang Cheng. Just when Brother Jiu and the others looked confused, Tang Cheng spoke up. "Why is there no key on the deceased's body? He lived in a private courtyard. When he left his residence, he would definitely lock the courtyard door. But we did not find the key on him!" Tang Cheng's words made Jiu Ge and the others react immediately. yes! How can a person who lives alone and leaves his residence leave his door unlocked!
But the problem now is that they didn't find the key on the deceased. "Think about it carefully. After the target left the residence, did he come into contact with anyone? Or where did he stay?" When Tang Cheng asked this question, he had already stood up from the body. While Brother Jiu was still looking thoughtful, Tang Cheng had already handed over to the plainclothes military commander closest to him and told him to take people to the target's residence immediately to confirm whether anyone had been to the target's residence.
Ten minutes later, news came that after the target left the residence, someone had indeed entered the courtyard, and they had opened the courtyard door with a key. Fortunately, the person who entered the courtyard was also followed by plainclothes military commanders, but no results have been reported back yet. At this time, Tangcheng was secretly calling it a fluke. If it weren't for the plainclothes military officers who participated in the operation and left people outside the target's residence, this new target might have been missed.
Tang Cheng used the objects found on the target and used the system search skills one by one, but failed to get the results he wanted. Now, he can only wait for the latest tracking results. Two hours later, they finally received news from the south of the city. The new target who had entered the target's residence was now in a teahouse in the south of the city. Tangcheng and the others could only rush to the south of the city immediately, "The person is still inside, male, about 40 years old, wearing a moon-white gown, light-colored trousers, and a pair of color-blocked leather shoes."
The plainclothes military commander guarding outside the teahouse saw Tang Cheng and the others appearing. They did not rush to greet them immediately. Instead, they waited for Tang Cheng and the others to approach, then pretended to stand on the street and lit a cigarette, and whispered about the situation. Informed several people in Tangcheng. The people in Tangcheng were all veterans, so they naturally knew that this person didn't want to reveal himself, so they didn't say anything. However, when they approached the door of the teahouse, the people in Tangcheng dispersed. Tang Cheng was the leader of this manhunt, so he was the first to walk into the teahouse.
The man in long gown that the plainclothes military commander mentioned just now walked into the teahouse and saw his target at a glance. Tang Cheng, who pretended to be looking for someone, did not stop at the target. He just glanced past the target. Tang Cheng's eyes fell on a bald man. "Lao Niu, I haven't seen you for a while, and I want to ask you something!" The bald man, who was called Lao Niu in Tangcheng, looked impatient, but he did not dare to say anything more, and could only accompany him. Smiley sat next to Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng's current position happened to be on the left side of the teahouse door. With his back to the target, Tang Cheng did not attract the attention of the man in the long gown. But he didn't know that Tang Cheng didn't enter the teahouse to monitor him, but to use system skills to target him. Tang Cheng, who pretended to be looking for someone, casually asked the bald man a few questions, then got up and left the teahouse with a look on his face. The man in the long gown, who was originally cautious, was even more relieved now, because he felt that Tang Cheng had not noticed him.
Ten minutes later, a bearded man with a newspaper in his hand came out of the teahouse. Behind him, two plainclothes military commanders followed quietly. In the teahouse just now, this bearded man was the only one who had a brief contact with the man in the long shirt, so this bearded man became the new target of the plainclothes military commander. Tang Cheng did not move. He was still waiting for the man in the long gown to come out. When the bearded man came out of the teahouse, Tang Cheng had secretly used system skills to scan the other person's true identity.
Compared with a real Japanese spy, a traitorous scum like a bearded man cannot interest Tang Cheng at all. Time passed quickly and another ten minutes passed, and the man in the long gown slowly came out of the teahouse. In the shop across the street, Tang Cheng, after a dozen breaths, came out of the shop and followed the man in the long gown at a distance. The man in a long gown who left the teahouse seemed very relaxed. The man in a long gown who walked eastwards for two consecutive blocks did not even look behind him.
The target's lack of vigilance was the target's fault. Tang Cheng, who was following the target, was vigilant and made all preparations. The man in the long gown, who was being followed by Tang Cheng himself, suddenly turned left at the intersection in front of him and entered the restaurant near the intersection on the left side of the street. Relying on the prompts given by the system, Tang Cheng did not lose the target's location, but he had already tracked the target on two streets. It was not easy to follow him to the restaurant at the intersection of the street.
At this moment, the man in the long gown was in a private room on the second floor of the restaurant, talking quietly to a man and a woman, and handing a letter to each other. Tang Cheng, who was outside the restaurant, naturally didn't know what was going on inside the restaurant, but he kept a close eye on the people entering and leaving the restaurant. Half an hour later, when the young man and woman came out of the restaurant, their identities were scanned by Tang Cheng using system skills. Tang Cheng immediately became energetic when he discovered that the men and women had different identities. But there is only one person in Tangcheng now. If he chooses to follow the young man and woman, there is no way he can keep an eye on the man in the long gown in the restaurant.
Therefore, after Tang Cheng thought for a moment, he used his system skills to target the young man. He stayed outside the restaurant, waiting for the man in the long gown to come out. Time passed by minute by second, and while Tang Cheng waited patiently, the man in the long gown finally came out of the restaurant. Half an hour later, the man in a long gown finally approached a hotel on the street. Tang Cheng, who was acting alone, also spotted two plainclothes military commanders coming from the opposite street.
"The target has entered the hotel over there. You go in and ask the hotel manager. I will stay outside and continue to watch." Tang Cheng made a vague gesture, and when the two plainclothes military commanders came to him, he whispered to them , and then turned into the shop opposite the hotel as if nothing had happened. If Tangcheng's past actions were followed, after finding out where the man in the long gown had settled, the next step would be to arrest him. But this case belongs to the military commander, and Tang Cheng doesn't want to make the military commander's enemies because of this case.
