"That's what happened at the time. I was outside the hotel, and I didn't expect that they would scare the target in the hotel." Tang Cheng stood in the bureau's office with a slutty look on his face, and he still smelled of burnt food. In Tangcheng, the usual relaxation in front of the bureau seat is completely invisible. Just half an hour ago, Tangcheng, which had always been smooth sailing, experienced a passing crisis. The man in a long gown whom they discovered where they were staying unexpectedly discovered someone from the military command, asking about him in the hotel.
The man in the gown, who mistakenly thought the hotel was under military control, not only opened fire but also used grenades in the hotel. When the target uses a grenade, he naturally wants to create chaos first and then take the opportunity to escape. It was just chaos at the time, and after the target pulled the grenade ring off, he was actually hit in the arm by a stray bullet. As a result, the grenade exploded in the hotel lobby. Not only was the target killed on the spot, but the two military plainclothes officers who entered the hotel for investigation were also injured.
Tang Cheng, who was outside the hotel at the time, rushed out of the shop across the street as soon as he heard the gunshots. When he rushed to the door of the hotel, he was knocked over by the blast of air. Thinking about it now, Tang Cheng felt chills running down his back. If he had been that much faster at that time, maybe there would be one more of him among the wounded admitted to the hospital now. The bureau chief already knew the situation at the scene. Of course he knew that Tang Cheng could not be blamed for this, because his understanding of his subordinates was far better than that of Tang Cheng.
The two plainclothes military commanders in the hotel were probably trying to grab credit, so they volunteered and asked to enter the hotel for investigation. It's a pity that they lack the flexibility when fighting. When they are hit by the target, if they had the flexibility of Tangcheng, maybe things would change today. It's just that it's too late to say anything now. The news of the hotel explosion has already spread in the city, and the Zhongtong people have already given themselves eye drops in front of the Chairman.
Tang Cheng, who was not reprimanded by the bureau chief, felt a little sorry, so he spoke out his thoughts. "The matter at the hotel is related to the Japanese spies. Even if someone wants to make a fuss about this matter, I'm afraid it will not end well in the end. The most important thing now is that we have to find the other accomplices of the man in the long gown. As long as we have There are new clues and targets, and we are not afraid of whoever will make the fuss. After all, the case is still under investigation." Tang Cheng's suggestion made the bureau chief's eyes light up. Thinking about it carefully, this is indeed a solution.
"When we were following the man in the long gown, we found someone in the teahouse and had brief contact with him. At that time, we allocated part of our manpower to follow the man and woman. As long as there is a result there, the case will not be delinked. . And I have portraits of other targets in my hand. If we can find one of them, we can find the others, but we still need time." The expression of the bureau leader changed differently as Tang Cheng said, Yes, what they need most now is time.
The batch of cigarettes seized by the Anti-Smuggling Department at the dock was quite large. At first, many people in the city paid attention to the matter, just because of the batch of cigarettes seized by the Anti-Smuggling Department. Only with the passage of time and the intervention of military commanders did those who cared about this batch of smoke realize that there were things they didn't know. Because of the existence of Zhongtong, the bureau leader believed that the person living in the South Bank Villa might already know something about the inner wall. Thinking of the phone call he received in the morning, the bureau chief felt a headache. The explosion in the hotel might be the beginning of trouble.
Tang Cheng had a lunch at the military command headquarters and left alone after eating and drinking. In order to solve the troubles facing the bureau, he had to show his true skills. Throughout the afternoon, Tang Cheng traveled through the streets and alleys of Chongqing. The shops that originally belonged to the search team had photos that were reproduced with portraits. Although Tang Cheng has not received relevant news yet, he understands the role and capabilities of these shops. As long as the people in the photos are still in the city, they will be able to find traces of them.
Things were indeed as Tang Cheng had inferred. When dinner was approaching, Tang Cheng did not wait for news from Juntong, but received a call from a shopkeeper. The other party said on the phone that the person in the photo was five minutes ago. I once went to their store to buy something. Tang Cheng was immediately overjoyed. He made a phone call first, and then left the teahouse where he had been staying for several hours. A quarter of an hour later, several panting plainclothes military commanders appeared at the street entrance to join Tang Cheng.
"Remember those photos I asked you to take? Someone called me 20 minutes ago. They had seen one of the people in the photos." After Tang Cheng finished speaking, the plainclothes military commanders immediately became excited. Like Tangcheng, they were under great pressure, and the hotel bombing was the biggest omission in their operations. Eager to find clues, they also ran around the city all day, but had no clue. Now, they found a new target in Tangcheng.
"Don't be anxious. People have been arranged over there. Just follow the target and let's go there slowly." Tang Cheng knew that at this time, the people involved in the operation need to stabilize their emotions. Blindly rushing for quick success will only lead to bad thing. When Tang Cheng and the others rushed to the store, the shopkeeper was already waiting outside the store, and they had quietly followed the target and found the target's foothold. Tang Cheng didn't say much. He just asked the target's whereabouts before leading them away.
The new target, identified by the shopkeeper, lived in a three-story building. After confirming that the light was still on in the room where the target lived, Tang Cheng took out the money and sent away the little boy sent by the shopkeeper to keep an eye on him. Man. The store clerk took the money and left. Only Tang Cheng and a few plainclothes military commanders were left here. In order not to expose themselves, Tang Cheng and the others chose to enter the alley next to them first. "This new target is the only clue we have. If we monitor it first, it will not only require more manpower, but may also waste more time."
"So, I decided, let's arrest people first, and arrest them immediately!" After Tang Cheng said this, he deliberately paused and looked around the other people. When no one else spoke against him, Tang Cheng continued. "No matter what, we must hold a card in hand first! The incident at the daytime hotel is a good example! The Bureau is currently under a lot of pressure, and so are those of us involved in direct action, so, No matter what, this new goal must be in our hands."
The main reason why Tang Cheng has never been willing to cooperate with the military commander in handling cases is because he is not suitable for the military commander's way of handling cases. As long as the search team discovers Japanese and puppet agents, they will most likely arrest them as soon as possible. After the military commander discovers Japanese and puppet spies, most of them will take a long-term approach to catch the big fish, and their method of operation will have a high chance of the monitored target escaping or a forced counterattack by jumping over the wall. Tangcheng decided to arrest people immediately. Although these plainclothes military commanders were a little unhappy, they did not express any objection.
"Well, since no one has any objection, let me arrange the action steps." Tang Cheng didn't care at all about the reaction of these plainclothes military commanders. Since no one raised any objection just now, Tang Cheng naturally took over the action command. right. After some explanations, Tang Cheng, dressed as a rich kid, walked out of the alley first. But just when Tang Cheng had walked out of the alley and was about to look at the window of the target's room, something suddenly flashed in Tang Cheng's heart. He immediately noticed that someone seemed to be looking at him.
Tang Cheng, who reacted quickly, immediately coughed to alert the others still in the alley. Just when the plainclothes military officer closest to the alley looked at him, Tang Cheng, who was standing at the alley, suddenly made a loud noise. After peeing, she was adjusting her pants. People have three urgent needs. Small alleys like this in the city often become the best place for men to urinate when they are in a hurry. Therefore, Tang Cheng, who had just come out of the alley, would be considered to have urinated in the alley next to him.
Tang Cheng, who pretended to adjust his pants, secretly used the corner of his eye to look around, checking the location of the gaze just now. Several plainclothes military commanders who were still in the alley also reacted at this moment. They closed their mouths and stood quietly in the alley looking at Tangcheng. After a few breaths, Tang Cheng, who seemed to have adjusted his pants, made a few vague gestures to the people in the alley, and then walked east along the street with a relaxed look.
Tang Cheng's feeling just now was not wrong. When he came out of the alley, there was indeed someone standing in the window looking at Tang Cheng. Fortunately, Tang Cheng reacted quickly and pretended to be peeing in the alley just now. This was able to deceive the person hiding behind the window. Tang Cheng, who was walking eastward along the street, seemed to be relaxed, but in fact he was secretly paying attention to the situation on both sides of the street. He had roughly confirmed the direction of the gaze just now, but he could not confirm the specific location, and now, the gaze had disappeared.
Tang Cheng, who couldn't think of a way yet, could only keep walking forward until he reached the three-story building where his target was. The gaze just now appeared again at this moment. Tang Cheng, who was aware of it, did not stop and just continued to walk forward. But after he walked more than ten meters through the three-story building, he suddenly crossed the street and walked into a shop on the opposite side of the street.
After a cigarette, Tang Cheng came out of the street shop and walked back along the street. With the gaze that he had just observed continuously, Tang Cheng had basically locked the opponent's position at this moment. The location of this guy was chosen very well. It was diagonally opposite the target's residence. All suspicious people approaching the target's residence could not avoid this guy's observation. Moreover, once he finds that something is wrong, he can also send a signal to the target diagonally across the street.
