"It seems like this 'robber Amao' has really turned this into a business..."
Ma Xiaoguang said meaningfully to Fatty and Charlie Cao (Cao Mu).
"This guy is not good at business, but he is very familiar with kidnapping and extortion. Now that he has the support of the devil behind him, he is even more unscrupulous..."
Fatty continued to introduce Sun Jiafu's background bitterly.
"Let's see where this bandit Amao will hide Zhou Huiding. The possibility of the concession is not very high. The person was robbed in Hongkou. There is no need to send him to the concession."
Ma Xiaoguang deduced Zhou Huiding's hiding place from common sense.
"It's probably in Hongkou or even Hongzhen. That's his hometown there, and it's been taken over by the Japanese again."
Charlie Cao immediately thought of the most likely place.
"But Hongkou and Hongzhen are so big. It's probably not easy to find someone. And if our whereabouts are exposed, if that guy gets impatient, he'll be in trouble!"
The fat man quickly expressed his worries.
Chief Ma agreed with Fatty's question this time.
A fat guy who doesn't know how to argue is not a good agent.
"We don't want too many people this time, just the three of us. Charlie is still responsible for driving around to find out the news. Fatty and I will go to Hongkou to find out the situation."
Ma Xiaoguang pondered for a moment and immediately arranged the manpower and strategy.
When the matter was settled, Ma Xiaoguang quickly sat down with Kevin again and made arrangements and explanations about the business matters.
Knowing that Boss Ma's work is of a special nature, and that Kevin also knows that Zhou Xiangsheng has a close relationship with him, Ma Xiaoguang naturally feels at ease...
Finally, under Natasha's resentful eyes, Ma Xiaoguang took Fatty and left Tianma Yangxing.
Instead of driving, the two of them changed into their normal clothes, took the tram and rickshaw, and went all the way to Hongkou.
The place they focused on was Hong Town, east of Hongkou.
Due to months of fighting, this place has become even more dilapidated, and broken walls can be seen from time to time.
Now this place has become the territory of the navy. Barbed wire fences have been put up all the way from Dalian Bay Road to Hongzhen Old Street, and roadblocks have been set up at intersections.
Marines with live ammunition are checking the documents of passers-by one by one...
This situation was unexpected before the two came.
"It looks like it's going to take a while to go in and investigate."
Looking at the barbed wire fence in the distance, Ma Xiaoguang said to the fat man with some annoyance.
"How about asking Quail for help?"
The fat man also asked anxiously.
"No, Quail is an important chess piece. We cannot use him unless absolutely necessary."
Ma Xiaoguang shook his head and gave his reason.
"What should we do?"
"I don't just know one quail in the Navy. Didn't I know several Japanese naval officers last time I went to the Marine Corps headquarters? You forgot that we both have the status of journalists..."
Ma Xiaoguang came up with an idea and said with a playful smile.
Just as they were told, Ma Xiaoguang and Fatty quickly returned to Qian Aili's rental house on Shigaota Road, Hongkou.
Here are the complete outfits and credentials of the two journalists.
After tidying up, Ma Xiaoguang took Fatty to the Marine Corps Headquarters on North Sichuan Road.
The person Ma Xiaoguang is looking for is Tian Yuan Koji, the head of the journalism department.
Section Chief Tahara's military rank has now been promoted from Major to Lieutenant Colonel.
The section chief was a well-rounded person. As soon as he saw the two of them, his face was filled with smiles.
"Your Majesty Lieutenant Colonel, this is my assistant, Ijuin Hayato..."
Ma Xiaoguang solemnly introduced Fatty to Lieutenant Colonel Tahara.
"Please take care of me!"
I practiced this Japanese phrase "Fat Man" many times on the way here, and now that I say it, it doesn't smell like plastic at all.
"We would like to conduct on-the-spot interviews on the new atmosphere in the Hongkou area... There are some places where we need your help, Lieutenant Colonel!"
"This matter has nothing to do with the Army Intelligence Agency. It is really just a news interview. Please take care of me!"
Ma Xiaoguang sincerely requested Lieutenant Colonel Tahara.
After that, he pushed over another envelope calmly.
Lieutenant Colonel Tahara was stunned for a moment, but soon his expression returned to normal. He put away the envelope skillfully and took out two passes from the drawer.
"This is a special pass for the Marine Corps Command. Except for the special area of the military dock where you cannot enter, the rest of the place can be accessed without obstruction."
Lieutenant Colonel Tahara said to the two "reporters" with a smile.
As he spoke, he asked the two of them for a one-inch ID photo, which he pasted on in person, and then took to the General Affairs Department to have it stamped with a steel seal.
After a lot of homework, you're done.
"Hey, I didn't expect your old man to have such a relationship at the Marine Corps Headquarters!"
After taking away his documents and leaving the Marine Corps headquarters, the fat man couldn't help but sigh to Ma Xiaoguang.
"Espionage work is sometimes not just about killing people, but also about being humane!"
"Last time, I investigated their internal leaks on behalf of the Army Intelligence Agency and didn't stab them. Section Chief Tahara was a favor, not to mention he could make extra money."
Ma Xiaoguang said to the fat man jokingly.
The fat man smiled evilly and said, "Hey, it seems that the Japanese also want to eat meat."
The two chatted and laughed all the way and returned to Hong Town again.
This time, with the blessing of the Marine Corps' special pass, he could naturally enter the blocked area unimpeded.
Most of the private houses here have been affected by the war, and many of them are in dilapidated condition.
However, driven by the Neon Army and some traitors, some civilians have repaired some houses.
There is a larger house among them.
A sign reading "Hongzhen Maintenance Association" hangs at the door of the house.
Due to their status as Neon reporters, neither the patrolling Marines nor the traitor plainclothes team had any trouble with Ma Xiaoguang and Fatty, allowing them to "interview" at will.
"It is estimated that 'Robber Amao' is very likely to hide Zhou Huiding in the Maintenance Association. No one from outside can get in. Even if Zhou Huiding escapes by chance, he will not be able to get out of Hong Town..."
Ma Xiaoguang whispered his judgment to the fat man.
"Then let's go and find out directly?"
The fat man asked excitedly.
After a day of hard work, it was finally not in vain. Victory was right in front of him. No wonder he was a little excited.
Ma Xiaoguang shook his head and said: "No, if by chance we happen to meet Zhou Huiding, he knows both of us. He is a young man in his twenties and has little experience in the world. He will call out our names when he gets excited. , then it’s a bad dish.”
Ma Xiaoguang's statement made the fat man calm down. He touched his chin and muttered: "It is indeed true. In addition, even if we find out that he is indeed inside, it will still take a lot of effort to rescue him after we get him out. This rainbow The town is surrounded by Marines."
"Of course, there are ways, but we can't do it ourselves. We have to ask Sun Jiafu to do it for us."
Ma Xiaoguang said with an enigmatic smile.
