Chapter 40: The Garden Hall

Today's Xufu Street looks a lot more deserted than yesterday, and I don't know if it's an illusion. The big archway in the middle of the street is the Shanxi Gan Guild Hall, and there are still people coming in and out in front of the hall. Ren Laifeng took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, it was now eleven :25 in the morning, and there were still two hours before the planned start time.

It is obviously still early to enter the hall now, and there is a restaurant next to it, so Ren Laifeng simply took Feng Wenying and the three of them to the restaurant to eat first. In ancient times, wars had to be full of food before they could go into battle, and this time the assassination of Yoshikawa Sadasa, although the scale was small, it was also a battle to kill the enemy, of course, you had to eat a full meal before you could work.

This time period is when the restaurant is ready to wait for the diners to come to the door, there are not many customers in the restaurant, and the staff are all in place. As soon as the four of Ren Laifeng entered the door, the guy from the restaurant greeted them warmly, "Welcome, four guests, please!" ”

After going up to the second floor and finding a seat by the window, Ren Laifeng ordered four meat, two vegetables and six dishes, asked for a pot of wine, and the four of them ate to kill time. Ren Laifeng only talked to the three of them about some interesting things in the market, and did not say anything about the upcoming assassination. The number of customers in the restaurant gradually increased, and the voices of noisy people and shouting guessing orders came and went.

Huang Tian interjected occasionally, Feng Wenying basically didn't speak, only Ren Laifeng and Huang Guojin were talkative. The four of them ate slowly, chatted in the sea and the sky, and time passed quickly. By the time the meal was almost finished, the time had already pointed to half past twelve. It took four people an hour and five minutes to eat with the food in a meal.

After checking out, going downstairs, and looking up again, I found that six rickshaws were parked on the side of the road in front of the restaurant, and several drivers were gathering together to chat. Sitting on one of the rickshaws in a daze, and a rickshaw driver didn't know what to say, the two of them were in high spirits.

When Ren Laifeng passed by the car, he glanced at him in a daze, and smiled, "Cousin, when you finish your errands later, you will take this old brother Qian's car, and I have already paid for the car." Brother Qian, this is my cousin, you can pull him later. ”

"Okay! Hello sir, my surname is Qian, when do you want a car, you can look for me. When I'm not working, I usually stay at the Gulou intersection. "The rickshaw driver solicited business in a timely manner.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. As long as you are familiar with the road and the car is fast, I will definitely ride in your car often in the future. Cousin, you talk, I still have to go beforehand. After speaking, he waved his hand, and strode straight to the Shanshaangan Hall a hundred meters away in front of him.

"Yo, this old brother, your cousin is going to the Shanshaangan Hall to do business?" The rickshaw driver looked uncertain. Who were the people in the hall in front of him, but he, the rickshaw driver, knew very well. If this cousin goes there to run errands, won't he be ......

"My cousin is a busy man, but he only comes here occasionally, not often." Stunned, he explained casually.

The rickshaw driver quickly nodded and smiled, "Yes, all the people who come here are busy." "But in my heart, after today's work is done, from now on you better never ride in my car! There are either devils or traitor spies living there, how many good people can come here to do business?

I didn't know what the rickshaw driver was thinking, and Ren Laifeng didn't know it. When he arrived at the gate, Huang Guojin naturally went up to negotiate with the Japanese guards.

"Hey, stop! This is a key protected area, and idle people are not allowed to approach! ”

"Hey, private, I'm a Japanese agent, and I'm here to discuss something with your person in charge here. Where can I find him? As he spoke, he took out a small red plastic notebook and shook it in front of the Japanese soldiers and put it in his pocket. This small book is a Japanese military officer ID card captured during the previous battle, and Huang Guojin didn't know what kind of document the Japanese agents should use, so he took this first to deal with the emergency.

Huang Guojin didn't know what documents the Japanese spies used, and the Japanese private obviously didn't know either. Of course, this is also Huang Guojin's fluent Japanese that frightened him, this one looked at him, and the doorman standing opposite was a standard recruit, not as good as him.

"Let's go inside. Keep going inside, and when you see someone, you can inquire again. The general lives in the innermost. However, he should be eating right now and may not necessarily receive you. "Isn't it, it's almost noon at this time, who would visit someone at this point? This is also Huang Guojin playing a Japanese spy, if he changes his identity, the doorman will not release people in at all!

After passing the Japanese guards, several people entered the gate of the hall and walked inside. On this road, the wall, the theater, the main hall, the side hall, the bell and drum tower, are next to each other. Red bricks and green tiles, antique. Entering the hall is like entering an ancient garden. The hall is full of exotic flowers and trees, and from time to time beautiful birds fly from the trees to the ground to feed.

It is really sad that such a beautiful place fell into the hands of Japanese slaves. Ren Laifeng walked more and more inside, so he felt that Yoshikawa Sadazo should be killed! This guy lives in such a beautiful guild hall, isn't this Wang Ba eating barley and ruining things?

"Brother Feng, where does Yoshikawa live?" Feng Wenying asked a little impatiently.

This question can be regarded as a reminder of Ren Laifeng. yes, where does Yoshikawa live? Looking for someone to ask for directions? No, he brought a map, it was the topographic map sent by Zhong Baohua, the captain of the Yudong guerrillas! There is a description of Yoshikawa Sadasa's location in the guild hall.

Seeing that there was no one in front and back, Ren Laifeng flashed and went to the attic next to him. This place is densely wooded, and a few people stop here, and it is not easy for people passing by on the road to spot them without looking carefully.

When I arrived at a secluded place, I took out a map and opened it and looked at it carefully. The terrain drawn above is basically the same as the one Ren Laifeng walked all the way through, and the place where Yoshikawa lived is further back, almost in the deepest part of the entire guild hall.

Judging by the number of archways, Ren Laifeng has walked about a quarter to a fifth. Yoshikawa's location, on the other hand, leads from the entrance to about two-thirds of the entire hall. It's still far away!

I took out my watch and saw that it was already twelve fifty o'clock, and it had been twenty minutes since I left the restaurant. It looks like you have to hurry up if you want to find Yoshikawa Sadasa's bedroom before half past one! With a number in mind, several people sped up under their feet.

Walking so fast, I can't figure out how far I walked in. Ren Laifeng is a little big, how can this hall be so big? Could it be that he can get lost with a map? Looking at the surrounding garden buildings, it seems that each one is different and all of them are the same. Where does Yoshikawa Sadasa live?
