Ma Xiaoguang groped under the bench for a while and soon made a discovery.
There was a hole under the wooden bench, and in the hole was something like a cigarette—it was a tightly rolled piece of paper.
Opening the note, it was filled with special symbols.
Ma Xiaoguang picked up the camera left by the fat man, quickly took a photo of the content on the note, and looked at it carefully for a while.
After making sure there was no other hidden information, he put the note back into the small hole in the bench.
Ma Xiaoguang turned around and went outside the park to buy another box of "Three Fortresses", took out the cigarettes inside, and threw the cigarette box into the trash can.
After carefully checking the scene and making sure it was as good as before, Ma Xiaoguang left the scene, found a secluded bush where a bench could be observed, and resumed his squat.
After waiting for a long time, when it was getting dark, a man wearing a black windbreaker appeared next to the bench.
This man had his collar turned up like the mysterious people in many movies, and he wore a scarf underneath, with only half of his face exposed.
The man carefully observed the surrounding situation, and then squatted down again.
The man was not particularly anxious to check the dead mailbox inside the bench, but first glanced at the trash can next to it.
However, he didn't go through the trash like Ma Xiaoguang. He just took a look at the cigarette box inside, and after making sure it was safe again, he started groping under the bench.
The man quickly got the cigarette-like note, put it in his pocket, stood up, and walked away as if nothing had happened...
After the man left, Ma Xiaoguang put away the camera with satisfaction and left Hongkou Park.
Instead of going back to Alpe Road, Ma Xiaoguang went straight to the "Yunxiang Photo Studio" on Second Avenue in the Public Settlement.
This is a point of contact for the Special Operations Group.
The owner of the photo studio is Jiang Shouan, who is honest and reliable and is also a member of the special operations team.
Let Jiang Shou'an do his own thing while keeping watch outside.
Ma Xiaoguang personally developed the photos taken at the scene.
At nine o'clock at night, the photos were developed and the fat man came.
The fat man reported to Ma Xiaoguang in a low voice: "Lao Jiang is a discerning man. He went out, and now we are the only ones here..."
Ma Xiaoguang handed the photo to the fat man and said: "This should be a list of personnel, but we don't have a code book, so we won't be able to decipher it in a short time.
The man in the trench coat only had half a face, and he consciously hid himself, making it basically invisible. "
The fat man nodded and continued his report: "I followed Zhang Kaifeng all the way. After he left Hongkou Park, he did not return to the magazine, but went to Xianshi Company.
After wandering around Xianshi Company for a while, guess who he saw again? "
"Kaori Takahara?"
"Your old man's guess was too accurate this time!"
The fat man nodded and replied, with an ambiguous smile on his face again.
"It seems that there is something wrong with Zhang Kaifeng. Without further ado, go to the "Declaration" and place an advertisement tomorrow morning..."
"Also over there, Yusuke Takahara and his wife continue to keep an eye on him. There must be something going on here! He may not be young yet."
Ma Xiaoguang did not continue to gossip with the fat man, but gave him the next step.
An advertisement was published in the next day's Shenbao.
"We have a batch of red sandalwood furniture from the Ming Dynasty on sale at this store. We have two Arhat beds, a pair of screen couplets, and four pairs of official hat chairs..."
Putting down the newspaper, Ma Xiaoguang glanced out the window. The sky was still hazy.
All I can do now is wait...
"Ding……"
The phone on the table rang.
"Master, the other party has shipped the goods, let's continue to follow up..."
This is a call from Gao Chao, which means that Yusuke Gaohara has taken action and the people here have followed.
"Okay, keep in touch. I'd rather get lost than wake up!"
Ma Xiaoguang immediately ordered in a deep voice.
Putting down the phone, Ma Xiaoguang got into the taxi he had made an appointment for and arrived at the meeting place mentioned by Gao Chao on the phone - Jiaxing Road.
"How is it going?"
Ma Xiaoguang asked aloud as soon as he saw Gao Chao.
Gao Chao reported in a deep voice: "Brother Li just made a call, and he is now over there on Duolun Road..."
Without saying much, the two of them rushed to Duolun Road in a hurry.
On the way to Duolun Road, Ma Xiaoguang particularly missed the mobile communication equipment and technology of later generations.
This back and forth is mainly due to communication equipment issues.
Being able to communicate by phone like this is already a very good condition. In many places, underground struggle and communication still rely on manual labor.
The distance between the two sides is not far, and it takes more than 20 minutes to walk there.
Lao Li did not dress up as a beggar like he did a few days ago. This time he was dressed appropriately and pretended to be a neon businessman.
"Gao Yuan met Akagi Chiyuki, the Japanese director of the Ministry of Industry Bureau, and the two sneaked into the neon bookstore in front..."
Lao Li reported in a low voice, and then pointed to the "Hoshino Bookstore" in front of him.
"This plateau looks similar to me at first glance. He doesn't have a few ounces of ink in his belly, and he has green onions stuck in his pig's nose. It's probably just a trick to show off..."
"In addition, Akagi and Gao Yuan are superiors and subordinates, and they are pretending to be mysterious here. There must be something going on inside... I'm afraid of alerting the enemy, so I won't be able to go in."
Lao Li then explained to Ma Xiaoguang while complaining.
Ma Xiaoguang nodded and said: "You did the right thing! Didn't I say it before? It's better to be lost than to be exposed. Just know the place."
After confirming the meeting place, Lao Li and Gao Chao left first.
Having more people is not always a good thing.
Hoshino Bookstore lobby.
"Sir, we have a membership system here. You must be a member to enter. To become a member, you must be recommended by a member..."
A staff member of the library politely but firmly stopped a neon ronin.
Ronin was a little angry and wanted to get angry, but when he saw a few strong guards behind him, he had no choice but to give up and leave angrily.
Ronin left "Hoshino Bookstore" with some annoyance and turned around to a secluded alley.
"Well, it's okay. Thank you for your hard work. Forget it if you can't get in. I'll find another way."
Ma Xiaoguang waved his hand and said to Ronin nonchalantly. After that, he gave Ronin a five-yuan bill.
After the ronin left, Ma Xiaoguang took a deep look at "Hoshino Bookstore" and then left quietly.
"Yunxiang Photo Studio" on Erma Road.
"It seems that there must be something fishy about that bookstore. Even if you find connections to get in, it will alert the old spies..."
After listening to Ma Xiaoguang's report, Fatty said thoughtfully.
"That's for sure, how's the advertising?"
"It's done, don't worry! Should we wait, or..."
"Of course you have to think about it. It's not my style to wait and see. You know."
"We need to find out what kind of plane these two are on. Ordinarily, they shouldn't take off their pants and fart. Why are they meeting outside?"
The fat man also muttered, his expression and tone were exactly the same as Lao Li.
"Just saying this reminds me that there is a way..."
When Ma Xiaoguang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he had a solution.
