Chapter 85: Scope of Lockdown

I actually found a tunnel, and now it's troublesome! Only then did Bai Zhanshan understand what Tang Cheng meant by the look he made at him in the courtyard just now. The Japanese spies lurking in the city of Nanjing already have the ability to dig tunnels, which is by no means a good thing for the military intelligence department. Bai Zhanshan didn't dare to delay time, and immediately prepared to call and report the matter to the director, but he didn't want to be stopped by Tang Cheng reaching out.

"What? You're going down the tunnel now? No, absolutely not!" Tang Cheng stopped Bai Zhanshan, preparing to ask Bai Zhanshan for his kerosene lighter, Tang Cheng was going to go down the tunnel first to find out. Knowing that Tang Cheng asked him about the lighter he wanted was about to go down the tunnel, Bai Zhanshan not only rejected Tang Cheng, but also shook his head vigorously, resolutely disagreeing with Tang Cheng to go down to the tunnel alone.

"Uncle Bai, I'm not going to be a lone hero, I just want to go down and see where the tunnel is going, so that we can figure out the direction in which other Japanese people might be hiding. If we can narrow down the scope of the blockade first, it will be very helpful for us to find those Japanese people. Tang Cheng couldn't cry or laugh, but he had to be patient to explain to Bai Zhanshan.

After Bai Zhanshan asked Tang Cheng to reassure him repeatedly, he took out the lighter and handed it to Tang Cheng in hesitation, and the latter did not hesitate at all, holding a kerosene lighter in one hand and a pistol in the other, and followed the pit on the wall of the cave, and fell to the bottom of the pit in a few strokes. After all, the light of the kerosene printer is not as bright as the flashlight, but it is enough for Tang Cheng to see the situation at the bottom of the cave, and the tunnel is less than three meters underground, and the width of the tunnel is not very large.

Tang Cheng just used Bai Zhanshan's kerosene lighter to illuminate it, and after watching at the bottom of the cave for a while, he climbed the entrance of the cave under Bai Zhanshan's constant urging. "Uncle Bai, I've seen it below, the tunnel is digging south, which is consistent with my previous suspicions. The tunnel below is not very wide, but I can see that there are standing logs on the cave wall, and it looks like this tunnel has been dug for some time. Bai Zhanshan didn't have time to pay attention to this, but after teaching Tang Cheng to put the wooden planks at the entrance of the cave again, he hurriedly left the courtyard with one of his men.

Tang Cheng knew that Bai Zhanshan was in such a hurry, so he went to call the director of the Military Intelligence Department, and it was obvious that the nature of this operation had escalated since he accidentally discovered that tunnel, and Bai Zhanshan did this because he knew that he could not afford this responsibility. After Bai Zhanshan waited for the people to leave, Tang Cheng ordered his subordinates to enter the courtyard, whether it was the investigation team or the military intelligence department, all of them hid in those rooms according to their own orders and waited for orders.

Bai Zhanshan walked and came back slowly, but after a quarter of an hour, Bai Zhanshan returned to the courtyard and brought Tang Cheng a piece of news that was neither good nor bad. "Xiao Wu, when the director heard about this, he immediately ordered the other two action teams in the department to come over to help, and one moment it was the head of the operation section who led the team to direct the operation." When Zhang Jianghe was still in Nanjing, Tang Cheng once met with Zhang Jianghe's home and met with the curtain chief, and knew that this person was a Maitreya Buddha who was not visible or leaky.

The manpower of the military intelligence department had not yet arrived, and Tang Cheng was unwilling to wait during this time, so he took several veteran officers of the investigation team to carry out a search from other directions in the blockade area according to the plan he had made before. This time, Tang Cheng disguised himself again as a rickshaw driver. Tang Cheng's age pretending to be a rickshaw driver is actually a bit too risky, but there are also many rickshaw drivers and Curry short-term workers who are the same age as him in the city, and when Tang Cheng dresses up, those who intend to dress up are older, and people who are not familiar with him will not pay attention to these when they see it.

Tang Cheng pulled Zhou Guangzhi, who was pretending to be a guest, to stroll forward along the street, and along the road, Zhou Guangzhi, who was dressed as a businessman, still vaguely saw a few familiar faces. When Zhou Guangzhi was on an errand in this police station, he had been a patrol officer in this area for more than a year, and there would naturally be people he was familiar with among those residents. "Stop!" Zhou Guangzhi suddenly called for a stop, and Tang Cheng had no choice but to stop the rickshaw on the side of the street, but saw that Zhou Guangzhi had already jumped out of the car and was walking towards a middle-aged man on the street.

Zhou Guangzhi first talked to the middle-aged man in a low voice for a while, then took out a few banknotes from his pocket and stuffed them to the other party, and then waited for the other party to nod, and then turned around and returned to Tang Cheng with a happy face. "Captain, that person's name is Wu Laoliu, who was also a patrol officer of this police station, but was later dismissed for drinking and mishapping. His family lives in this area, and this guy relies on the original relationship, and now he is the bag of this piece to inquire. Zhou Guangzhi, who returned to the rickshaw, whispered to Tang Cheng.

"I just gave him thirty yuan, and he asked us to wait for him at the bun shop in front, I guess he should have the news that works." Zhou Guangzhi's words made Tang Cheng's face smile, since this Wu Lao Liu is the bag of this piece to inquire, maybe it will really come in handy for a while. Tang Cheng and the two continued to move forward, but not far along the street, it was the bun shop that Wu Lao Liu said.

Wu Lao Liu is obviously a frequent customer of this steamed bun shop, and Zhou Guangzhi, who walked into the steamed bun shop, reported Wu Lao Liu's name, and was immediately asked by the young man in the store to go to the table in the corner. Tang Cheng pretended to be a rickshaw driver, so he couldn't enter the bun shop, so he had to take out two gross tickets, buy a few buns, sit outside the door and eat them. After a lot of effort, Wu Lao Liu, who had already changed his clothes, came from a distance, Tang Cheng glanced at Wu Lao Liu, and found that the other party was a very clean looking person.

When Wu Laoliu entered the bun shop, he made a face to face with Zhou Guangzhi, and Zhou Guangzhi was not ambiguous and directly explained the purpose. "Old Zhou, don't hurt me!" After hearing what Zhou Guangzhi asked about himself, Wu Lao Liu's face immediately changed. "When I heard you ask, could it be that it has something to do with the Japanese? You know me, I'm just a coward, I just want to get some money to support my family, it's too dangerous, I don't dare to do it. ”

Wu Laoliu's words made Zhou Guangzhi happy, and he didn't look at Wu Laoliu's cautious face at the moment, but just laughed coldly. "Sixth! You really haven't changed at all, but your brain is still good, and yes, the things I just asked you about are indeed related to the Japanese. As he spoke, Zhou Guangzhi took out his ID from his pocket and handed it to Wu Lao Liu, and motioned to the other party to open it with his eyes.

"I've been transferred to the Special Investigation Team, which is still nominally a police department, but in reality an independent department working for the Military Intelligence Service. Sixth, there has never been a good thing in the world that pie falls from the sky, if you want to make money, you have to work hard. Not to mention anything else, Lao Tzu is now receiving a double salary, the police station will issue a copy, the Japanese spy has been caught, and our investigation team will also send a more, this day is not much worse than the police chief. ”

After Wu Laoliu was dismissed, he inquired about this bag, in order to earn money to support his family, Zhou Guangzhi's last sentence deeply stimulated him. After Zhou Guangzhi finished speaking, he slowly opened five fingers to him, Wu Laoliu, who understood the meaning of Zhou Guangzhi's gesture, was already trembling with excitement, and immediately nodded in agreement. Wu Lao Liu hurriedly left the bun shop, Zhou Guangzhi also came out slowly, Tang Cheng did not talk to Zhou Guangzhi immediately, but signaled Zhou Guangzhi to get in the car.

"Old Zhou, pay attention to the guy wearing a peaked cap on the balcony on the second floor in front, I just saw that something was not quite right." When Zhou Guangzhi got into the car, Tang Cheng, who pretended to dust off with a towel, whispered. Zhou Guangzhi also pretended to get into the rickshaw as if nothing happened, but when Tang Cheng bent down to pull up the rickshaw, Zhou Guangzhi took a quick look at the position that Tang Cheng just said.

The balcony on the second floor in front of Tang Cheng was actually not on the side of the street, but behind a row of squares, and Zhou Guangzhi did see a guy with a peaked cap on the balcony on the second floor. Tang Cheng and Zhou Guangzhi were silent, and the rickshaw slowly drove through the street, but after turning the corner, Tang Cheng immediately stopped the rickshaw. "Lao Zhou, you go and call someone, I'll stay here." Hearing Tang Cheng's teaching, Zhou Guangzhi, who got off the rickshaw, immediately nodded and left.

A quarter of an hour later, Bai Zhanshan's car drove from the direction where Zhou Guangzhi had left, accompanied by two of his men and Zhou Guangzhi. "Uncle Bai, look at the 2-story building over there, according to the location, it should not be very far from the previous courtyard." Reaching out to take the floor plan and pencil handed over by Zhou Guangzhi, Tang Cheng directly drew a straight line on the floor plan, and carefully calculated the straight line distance between the 2nd floor and the courtyard, which was indeed not far away.

"Do you suspect there's something wrong with that two-story building, or is that tunnel in the courtyard directly connected to this side?" Bai Zhanshan will not be confused, as soon as he looks at Tang Cheng's action of marking straight lines on the floor plan, he has already roughly understood what Tang Cheng wants to express.

"It's not important, it's important that you have to put people in place to monitor the street now. If my guess is correct, and there is a problem with the 2nd floor over there, and the tunnel is activated, maybe someone here will take the opportunity to escape. Tang Cheng put away the floor plan, got up and said frankly to Bai Zhanshan.

Bai Zhanshan immediately nodded fiercely and said, "Then arrange the manpower, calculate the time, the manpower in the department should also arrive, just assign a part of the manpower from there to come here, and don't let people run away." Since there is no way to complete the operation according to the division chief's arrangement, it is necessary to completely annihilate this group of Japanese spies, otherwise the military intelligence department may end up being watched by people in such a vigorous action.
