The fat man followed the middle-aged man out of the lobby of Jinling Bank.
As soon as the other party came out of the lobby, he looked completely different from the one in the bank. His steps were so fast that the fat man almost couldn't keep up with him.
The opponent's feet were very fast, but from time to time he stopped suddenly, taking advantage of various inadvertent opportunities to turn around and observe. Even though the fat man was full of wits, he was still a little overwhelmed.
After walking for about two miles along Zhongshan South Road, the man stopped and read a newspaper at a newsstand next to "Wuji Grocery Store".
Seeing this, the fat man had no choice but to pretend to look at the advertisement board on the roadside and read the advertisement in a serious manner.
At this time, a taxi slowly passed by and stopped gently next to the newsstand.
The man was still reading the newspaper intently...
Suddenly, he opened the door of the back seat of the taxi and got in.
The fat man was a little anxious when he saw it. No matter how powerful he was, his two legs couldn't catch up with the four wheels.
There is a fundamental difference between burning gasoline and burning bone oil.
Standing on the street and looking around for less than five seconds, the fat man smiled again.
Because he saw Chief Ma.
Commander Ma drove the old Ford across the street from the corner of the street.
"I couldn't help it. This guy is quite cunning. I had no choice but to park in the back alley of the bank. Fortunately, there was no delay."
Chief Ma said to the fat man.
The Ford followed the taxi, driving slowly, with a map on the passenger side.
Chief Ma will be the driver, and Fatty will be the co-driver.
Don't laugh, he is really the co-driver. It seems that the navigator of this rally is a human navigation.
Don't follow a car too closely. If you keep seeing a car following you in the rearview mirror, a fool will understand what's going on.
So the best thing is to follow the segmented method, but now that the situation is urgent, we can only follow the authority.
Fortunately, Commander Ma and Fatty are not rookies. There are some sections of roads, such as one-way roads, where you don't need to follow too closely. Some roads can be detoured when appropriate. Different roads lead to the same destination.
So under normal circumstances, having a co-driver following you can get twice the result with half the effort.
I followed the taxi for a while along Zhongshan South Road and turned into Jianye Road.
Jianye Road was very busy, and the car didn't drive very fast. After walking about five or six hundred meters, Li Wanhai got off the car in front of a jewelry store called "Longxiang".
The taxi drove away quickly. Li Wanhai stopped and looked around for a moment, then went into Longxiang Jewelry Store.
Ma Xiaoguang got out of the car first, and Fatty took over and drove the car aside.
Standing in the grocery store opposite Longxiang Jewelry Store, he pretended to buy something while observing the jewelry store.
The business in the jewelry store opposite was so-so, there were a few people, but it was definitely not good. After Li Wanhai dived in, no one was there.
Ma Xiaoguang bought two packs of Hardmen and started chatting with the grocery store owner on the pretext of waiting for someone.
"Boss, is business going well?"
"Oh, that's enough. The world is going by day by day. My shop is our ancestral property and we can't afford to lose it..."
The grocery store owner shook his head helplessly.
"Then the jewelry store opposite has always been on this street?"
"It's not a long time, but it's not a short time either. It's probably more than three years."
"I don't think the business is very good. Are you doing well?"
"Who knows, maybe there are other ways to get money."
After coming out of the grocery store, Ma Xiaoguang saw the car parked on the side of the road, but did not see the fat man. He smoked a cigarette and waited for a while, but saw the fat man coming out of the back alley of the jewelry store.
"There is a house in the back alley of this jewelry store. Li Wanhai went in through the back door. There is only one door in that house," the fat man whispered.
"I guess this is where he will stay. Don't disturb him. Go back and ask Xiao Lu and Xiao Yang to come over and monitor him 24 hours a day, but they are not allowed to be exposed!"
"Go right away. Where is your old man?"
After the fat man agreed, he seemed to think of something and suddenly asked.
When Chief Ma heard this, a decisive but helpless expression immediately appeared on his face and he said: "Alas! I still have to go to the Central Hospital to say hello..."
"Hey! That's your blessing as an old man, and no one else can envy you!"
"Hey, don't send me off. I'll take a rickshaw there myself. Go ahead."
After that, the two separated at the intersection of Jianye Road and went about their own business.
In the evening, a group of people returning to Hubei Road all looked tired.
In the living room, Xiao Lu and Fatty were holding a large bowl of meat noodles and eating enthusiastically.
"Brothers, you're working so hard and you haven't even eaten?"
"Didn't your old man say that there is round-the-clock surveillance? Then there was time to eat. Xiao Lu also went to find information about Longxiang Jewelry Store. We were just replaced. Xiao Yang and Xiao You took over. Tomorrow morning it will be Liang Shuang and the others..."
The fat man said vaguely while chewing the noodles.
"Sir, don't you want some?" Xiao Lu asked with concern.
"No, you guys eat slowly." Commander Ma lit up a Hard Gate and said quietly.
"Sir, maybe you can survive by eating from two families."
The fat man drank the last mouthful of noodle soup and said with a wicked smile.
Chief Ma rolled his eyes angrily, but did not deny the fat man's words. He picked up the information bag on the coffee table and looked through it.
"Here is the registration and tax information of Longxiang Jewelry Store. From this information, as you know, this store has not made much money at all since it opened."
Xiao Lu put down the bowl and turned to Chief Ma.
"Needless to say, there is probably something wrong. Has the boss checked it?"
"Fang Decheng is from Jingkou, Jiangning Province. I'm afraid the information from Jingkou will not arrive so quickly. It will be the day after tomorrow at the earliest."
"It won't take that long, just keep an eye on him for 24 hours. During the day, I'm mainly afraid that something might happen to him. I'll go meet this Li Wanhai tomorrow."
"So fast?" Fatty and Xiao Lu asked in unison.
"Soldiers need speed!" Commander Ma replied thoughtfully.
Early the next morning, Chief Ma and Fatty swaggered to the temporary surveillance point and brought breakfast to Yang Bailin and You Xin.
"After eating, leave immediately and go back to rest. Fatty and I will come."
"This...it's not necessary, you are the commander."
"Excuting an order."
Soon, Commander Ma and Fatty replaced two colleagues.
After smoking two cigarettes, Ma Xiaoguang put away the cigarette butts and said to the fat man: "Stop staring, let's go straight in and meet Li Wanhai."
With a trace of doubt, Fatty followed Chief Ma and knocked on the door of the house.
I knocked for a long time, but no one answered.
"Open the door, we are from the Qinglong Gang! If you don't open the door, I will kick the door down!" The fat man shouted at the top of his lungs as he headed outside.
"I'm coming……"
There was a feeble response from inside.
After a while, the door opened.
"What are you two?"
The door opened a crack, and when I looked through the crack, the person inside was Li Wanhai, who had appeared in the bank yesterday, looking at the two of them with some confusion.
Seeing that the door was open, the fat man couldn't help but open the door and jumped in. Chief Ma followed him and naturally went in with a big show of his own.
"You two, I am a tuberculosis patient and I am afraid of infection!"
"We are not afraid, go in and talk."
Commander Ma strode into the living room of the house without any concern.
The fat man also walked in, but instead of sitting down as calmly as Chief Ma, he searched everywhere.
"Mr. Li, ah no, it should be the deputy director of the company, or Mr. Zong, hello!"
Ma Xiaoguang said to Li Wanhai with a smile.
"Sir, are you kidding me?"
Li Wanhai looked confused.
"Old senior, yes, you can hold on well...but I still suggest you go to the hospital as soon as possible to check your internal injuries. Otherwise, you may die before the task is completed!"
When Li Wanhai heard this, his expression did not change, but a frightened look flashed in his eyes. With a shake of his hand, he magically pulled out a pistol from his body - a Colt M1911.
When Ma Xiaoguang saw this, his face was as calm as water and he stood at the moment.
"Where are you from?"
"Haha, Mr. Zong, aren't you kidding me? I don't believe you don't know, hey, fat man!" Ma Xiaoguang suddenly shouted.
Li Wanhai or Zong Duanben was suddenly stunned when he heard this.
Ma Xiaoguang dodged and struck like lightning. He grabbed the slide of the Colt M1911 with his left hand and pushed it back suddenly. His right hand pinched Zong Duanben's neck, suffocating him.
Zong Duanben pulled the trigger, but could not make the bullet fire. His eyes were wide open, like a fish caught in a net.
Ma Xiaoguang's hands were like two iron pliers, and Zong Duanben couldn't move even though he was pinching her from a distance.
After a while, Zong Duan rolled his eyes a little, his body became a little weak, and he nodded quickly at Ma Xiaoguang.
Seeing this, Ma Xiaoguang grabbed the pistol with a little force with his left hand, but he had already let go of his right hand.
Zong Duanben relaxed all over and quickly held onto a chair, breathing heavily and coughing from time to time.
"I'm sorry, I'm rude. Although this is a bit overwhelming, we are all traveling together and are agents, so we don't break the rules that much..."
Ma Xiaoguang sat down again. Although he said this, there was no apology in his tone.
At this time, the fat man had returned to the living room, nodded to Ma Xiaoguang and said: "After checking, there is no other danger, and there is no eavesdropping."
"Let's talk, Senior Zong." Ma Xiaoguang said lightly.
Zong Duanben calmed his breath and slowly sat down on the chair.
After sitting down, he said nothing and glanced at the fat man with wandering eyes.
"This is the most reliable brother, there is nothing I can't say."
Ma Xiaoguang said without comment.
"Master Ma of the Secret Service is indeed well-deserved, I just didn't expect it to happen so soon!"
Zong Duanben's tone returned to calmness, but his eyes also returned to calmness.
"Senior, it's a bit impolite to talk to others with a fake face!"
Ma Xiaoguang glanced at Zong Duanben and said jokingly.
Zong Duanben's eyes froze when he heard this, but he took out a handkerchief on his body, and like magic, he took out a small flat flask and poured out some strong liquor.
Zong Duanben soaked the handkerchief on his face and wiped it, and saw some dough-like things falling rustlingly on his face...
Revealing a somewhat pale face.
It was Lian Zongwang, the deputy director of the Second District Bureau who had already reported his death in the accidental fire!
"Senior has been an official for a long time. Maybe he didn't expect Song Zhao to be so skilled. Are you careless?" Ma Xiaoguang asked with a smile.
"Oh, I even expected this, it's really amazing!"
"Let's not brag about each other. Let's talk about it. Which intelligence agency in Neon Country does your senior belong to?"
Ma Xiaoguang's expression suddenly changed and he asked in a deep voice.
