Ping An City, Yuelai Inn.
Qian Sihai welcomed its first customer a few days after closing.
This is a middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a long robe, with a sallow complexion and a rough face. He should be quite tall, but he is shorter because of his hunchback.
"Sir, do you want to work as a professional or stay in a hotel?" When Qian Sihai saw a guest, he came up to entertain him personally.
"Staying in the hotel, please arrange a clean room for the shopkeeper. Well, I have four oceans, you can do whatever you want."
Four oceans away, Shopkeeper Qian was shocked. When he looked carefully, he saw that the middle-aged man's face vaguely resembled Xu San's.
"Then please follow me." With that said, Qian Sihai led Xu San to the second floor.
When Xu San returned to Ping'an City this time, he did not go to see Mishima. The so-called Mishima family affairs were just made up by him to deceive Chen Changhai.
His real purpose was to find Qian Sihai so that he could contact the county brigade, because his subsequent plans were almost entirely dependent on the county brigade, and Li Si was the key to the success of this plan.
After entering the guest room, Qian Sihai immediately walked to the window and checked the surroundings. After making sure it was safe, he walked to sit next to Xu San and asked in a low voice: "Why did Boss Xu show up like this? Is there some emergency?" ?”
"Did I read the intelligence I gave you last time? Regarding the issue of the Japanese arresting people these days."
"Looking at it, I didn't expect the Japanese to be so inhumane. I've asked Huzi to send the information out personally, but he hasn't come back yet."
Recalling the indignation between humans and gods described in Xu San's note that day, Boss Qian couldn't help but clenched his fists.
"Things have changed a bit. I have found out that those people may be imprisoned in the chicken butt ditch. I want to find someone to find out the specific situation. The sooner the better. It is best to have the results tomorrow."
"You mean..."
"It's best to contact the county brigade. There's something wrong with my line. It's not safe now. I have no choice but to bother shopkeeper Qian."
"You're welcome. Your rank is higher than mine. Although we are not on the same line, but the situation is urgent, you can also give me direct orders."
Boss Qian's words immediately made Xu San's eyes light up.
Emotions are handled by superiors and subordinates, so why should they be worried?
Although I know that Qian Sihai will report the incident and may face scrutiny, the top priority now is to save people.
"If Boss Qian says that, I'll be relieved."
Next, Xu San told Boss Qian a place and a time, and told him where to contact him tomorrow regardless of whether there was any information about Jibutugou.
After thinking about it, Xu San continued: "It's best to ask Li Si from the county brigade to contact me, and don't expose my rank."
After saying that, Xu San felt a little regretful because Li Si, who was supposed to escort Miss Tian, hadn't come back yet.
Forget it, I guess Boss Qian can arrange for a stable person to come over.
"Okay, I've written it all down!"
Seeing that there was nothing more to say, Xu San walked to the door of the room and grabbed the door.
"Bang~"
Xu San slammed the door hard and left, cursing, "Damn it, what a shabby inn, it doesn't even have a stove, I want to freeze people to death, I can't stand it anymore."
When Xu San left Ping'an City again, he had a pair of walkie-talkies, one set of Japs officer uniforms, and two sets of ordinary Japs soldier uniforms.
In addition, Xu San also brought a special thing:
Product name: Jiqiang shaping matte hair wax
Product Type: Camouflage props
Styling Products: Styling Matte Pomade
Color Category: White
Product function: Disguise +20 (Strengthen +1)
Special function: Luck +20 (Strengthen +2)
Effective time: 6-24 hours (can be strengthened)
Number of uses: 10/10 (can be strengthened)
Manufacturer: 15 Sunflower Toy Manufacturing Factory Third Assembly Line
Note: After 6 hours, the function will decrease with time and return to zero after 12 hours.
Transformation and strengthening, this box of cigarette box-sized hair wax cost Xu San nearly sixty dollars. If Xu San didn't have a small amount of assets now, he really wouldn't dare to waste it like this.
After finding a secret tree hole to hide these things, Xu San returned to the stronghold again.
As soon as he returned to the stronghold, Chen Changhai took Xu San to his house, "Third Master, how is it? What did Taijun Mishima say."
The corner of Xu San's mouth twitched: "It took me a lot of words to persuade Mishima Taijun. He said that we would send 10 more this time."
"Only ten?" Chen Changhai was a little disappointed, because even if it cost three yuan per head, it was only thirty oceans.
"Oh, I'm not satisfied. Mishima Tai-kun said that this is not a one-time deal. There may be a big deal in the spring next year. Do you understand?"
"How dare I be dissatisfied? We will do whatever Taijun Mishima says. Besides, it is my honor to serve Taijun Mishima."
Xu San chuckled, "It's too late today. Let's go to a few nearby villages for a walk tomorrow to see what's going on."
"Why don't you arrest the person directly?" Chen Changhai was very anxious and wanted to arrest the person immediately and exchange the money immediately, so that he could be safe.
"That guy surnamed Yao has arrested a lot of people in the past few days, right? You think the guerrillas won't react. What if the two of us just go ahead and arrest people and get into the guerrilla encirclement?" Hey~~" Xu San sighed softly, "No wonder the Zhongyang Army always loses battles."
Chen Changhai wasn't angry after hearing this. Since he had money to take, he could just scold him.
The next day, Xu Sanlao took Chen Changhai out of the stronghold early and spent a morning visiting three villages.
Looking at the dilapidated villages one after another, Xu San's heart felt like a knife.
There are almost no young people in the village anymore, the houses are dilapidated, and as the New Year approaches, there are only a few old people sitting feebly in the village. Their old and withered faces are full of numbness and death, as if there is no hope at all.
Neither the women nor the children showed up. They must have been hiding because they were afraid of being caught by the Japanese.
Chen Changhai looked disappointed when he saw this scene. There seemed to be no pity in his eyes, just money.
Xu San sighed, "Come back tomorrow."
"Would you like to go further?" Chen Changhai was a little unwilling to give up and wanted to hang around for a while.
"No, I know in my heart. Is someone hiding? We will launch a surprise attack tomorrow. There are only ten of them anyway, so it won't take much effort."
It was almost noon, and Xu San led Chen Changhai towards the place he and Qian Sihai had agreed upon.
"This doesn't seem to be the way back to the stronghold, right?" Chen Changhai found that the route Xu San was leading was wrong, and he couldn't help but feel nervous. He was not afraid that Xu San would harm him, but he was afraid that the guerrillas would take advantage of him.
"Get some game and improve it. There's no bird in your mouth these days."
"Yes, it's too expensive to cut meat in the city! As for the consumption of ammunition, we'll just say we've encountered the Eighth Route Army."
Soon, the two arrived at the designated place.
However, Xu San did not find the footprints of the county brigade. Just when he wanted to search more carefully, Chen Changhai was lying straight on the ground.
Xu San was secretly shocked, what was going on? You, a traitor, wouldn't have died so suddenly.
He knelt down and breathed with his hand.
He was not dead, and his breathing was steady, as if he was asleep, but there was a silver needle more than an inch long inserted in his neck.
"Brother, don't worry, he won't die." A familiar voice came from behind.
Looking over at the sound, two people emerged from the bushes. One was Li Si, and the other was shorter than him. He was wearing an Eighth Route Army uniform. Judging from the badge, this person was still a regiment-level cadre.
Seeing this person, Xu San couldn't help but frown.
This is the regular army!
How to get in touch?
Out of caution, Xu San did not walk over, "I wonder who this is? It doesn't look like he is from the county brigade, right?"
"Hello, comrade, I am Zhao Gang."
