Chapter 63: No Clue

Tang Cheng hid alone in a well-concealed cellar and couldn't think about it, but the special high school and the military police headquarters were already in a hurry, counting the izakaya bloody case some time ago, there have been two vicious cases with great impact in Hongkou District, especially this time, it was still a very purposeful assassination. The special high school has now concluded that Kenichi Yamamoto is the target of this emergency, and the few dead and wounded gendarmes may just be affected by the incident to the unlucky.

What happened in Hongkou District was learned of by people who were paying close attention to the incident after the gendarmerie lifted the full martial law on Hongkou District that night. Those who knew the inside story were all secretly amazed, if it was them, they would not dare to do such a thing in the Hongkou District, which was tightly controlled by the Japanese army. "Great, immediately send a telegram to the Nanjing headquarters, saying that the ** operation has been completed." After Bai Zhanshan received the report from his subordinates, he immediately jumped up happily and sent a telegram to the Nanjing headquarters as soon as possible.

Bai Zhanshan didn't expect that Tang Cheng would do it so quickly, and the location of the move was actually in Hongkou District. In addition to the excitement, he suddenly felt a little guilty, Zhang Jiang and his previous premonition were not wrong, the reason why Bai Zhanshan was in a hurry to contact Tang Cheng as soon as he arrived in Shanghai was because he had asked Tang Cheng to participate in the assassination of Kenichi Yamamoto, which he suggested in front of the director. Zhang Jianghe was injured in an ambush, and Tang Cheng immediately abandoned everything and rushed to Shanghai. This made Bai Zhanshan, who had already regarded Tang Cheng as his subordinate, jealous.

Tang Cheng is not very old, but his ability is not small, especially the ability to search for Japanese spies, which is admired by many veterans in the Nanjing headquarters of the Intelligence Department. Bai Zhanshan originally tried his best to win over Tang Cheng, trying to make the super capable Tang Cheng a help for him to climb up, but he didn't expect that Tang Cheng actually put forward conditions with the director of the department with his future, and was willing to serve Zhang Jiang and Zhang Mu, who had lost power, which Bai Zhanshan absolutely did not want to see. Especially after the Shanghai station reported the Izakaya operation in Hongkou District, Bai Zhanshan was fortunate to learn the inside story from the director, and from this, he became even more annoyed with Tang Cheng.

Originally, he suggested to the director that Tang Cheng also participate in the assassination of Kenichi Yamamoto, the purpose was not to put Tang Cheng in prison, but to extend his helping hand at the right time when Tang Cheng was in a hurry, so as to completely pull Tang Cheng onto his boat. But he never expected that Tang Cheng not only started the operation immediately, but also completed the assassination of Kenichi Yamamoto alone, and Bai Zhanshan finally realized that he still underestimated Tang Cheng.

Tang Cheng naturally wouldn't know that Bai Zhanshan was secretly targeting him, at this moment he was hiding in the cellar to recuperate, although the gendarmes had lifted the blockade of Hongkou District, but Tang Cheng didn't want to leave immediately. Tang Cheng didn't listen to what was going on outside the window at the moment, this was obviously not his intention, Tang Cheng who was hiding in the cellar didn't dare to go out rashly, after all, this is Hongkou District, as long as he took a slight wrong step, he might fall into the situation of being pursued by a large number of Japanese troops.

So Tang Cheng chose to wait and see, in short, the assassination of Kenichi Yamamoto has ended, and now he has a lot of time to waste, on the contrary, the special high school and the military police headquarters are like ants on the side of the oil pot. It has been almost 20 hours since Kenichi Yamamoto was assassinated, and after being examined and checked by trace experts from the special high school, the bullet casings found at the scene were definitely shot from the barrel of a gun. Judging from this, the murderer is likely to be alone, and as for how the murderer managed to move quickly between the two firing positions alone, then I can only ask God.

Because of the previous inference, the reprimanded Kuroteng couldn't swallow this breath, and when everyone was at a loss, Kurotto took his subordinates and others back to the scene of the incident for a second investigation. It seems that Kurote, who suddenly opened his mind, did not just waste time walking around the street as before, but sent his subordinates to go up to the roof of the movie theater and the roof on the left side of the street according to their own ideas, and then used their watches to strictly calculate the time it took for his subordinates to move quickly in these two locations.

After several repeated deductions and test calculations, Kuroteng and the others finally came to a conclusion that if the murderer was just alone, as long as his speed was fast enough, he could move quickly between these two locations, especially when Kuroteng and the others found half of the burned rope in the back alley of the movie theater. The rope that had been burned by the fire and only half of it was left gave Kurotto a great hint, and after careful investigation, Kurotto and others found traces of hanging ropes on the roof of the movie theater.

"That's not wrong, the murderer should have been on the rooftop, first shooting at Yamamoto Daisa's car, after discovering that a military police patrol appeared. The killer then gave up shooting and instead slid down to the back alley of the cinema using a rope that had been prepared long ago. Traces of a fixed rope were found on the edge of the roof of the movie theater, and Kuroto's speculation was found, and most of Kuroto's team members agreed with him.

After several field tests, Kurotto and others found that if the murderer left the back alley of the movie theater and moved on a bicycle, he could quickly rush to the roof of the building maintenance building on the left side of the street to set up a second shooting point. Hongkou District is a Japanese army-controlled area, and most of the people who live here are Japanese expatriates, and the black vine who was forced to be anxious directly used the stupid method of asking one by one, and soon, they had a few clues that were not very clear.

The first clue that Kuroto took seriously came from a nearby businessman, who recalls that before hearing the explosion, he saw a man riding a bicycle out of the back alley of the movie theater. It's just that he just glanced at it casually at the time, so he didn't see the other party's appearance clearly, but he still remembered the other party's clothes, especially the gray cap on the other party's head.

Although the merchant couldn't tell what the man looked like, Kuroteng felt that the gray cap was a good clue, and soon, Kurotto's subordinates found a lot of gray caps of different styles, and after the merchant carefully identified them, Kurotto's subordinates took the identified gray caps to several checkpoints to ask the gendarmes and police on duty. Caps are not uncommon in Hongkou District, but there are not many gray ones, and the few checkpoints that have been notified have begun to pay attention to suspicious people wearing caps in and out of Hongkou District.

Kuroto, who already had the first clue, did not stop tracking, and they traced down the back alley of the movie theater all the way to the building on the left side of the street, and found the dilapidated bicycle that had been discarded by Tang Cheng. Found a bicycle that may have been used by the murderer, this major discovery made Kuroti and the others suddenly feel angry, and it also surprised and surprised the others in the special high class.

With this momentous discovery, Kurotto regained control of the case, and he had a lot of men at his disposal, including two military police patrols. The continuous discovery made Kuroto full of confidence, but he also had some disappointments, because they found too many fingerprint marks on this bike, and it would take a lot of manpower and time to check these fingerprints. For Kuroteng, who is in a hurry to prove himself, time is the most important thing to waste, and the two clues he has discovered seem to be very time-consuming to have an investigation result.

But Black Vine is already ready to shoot at this moment, and he doesn't want to be reprimanded by his boss anymore, so he can only continue to pursue it, even if he has no other clues in his hands. At the same time as the Kuroteng gang launched an investigation, the intelligence system of the Special High Division also began to exert its power and effect, and after confirming that the murderer may be alone, the personnel of the Special High Division in the black market in the concession immediately began to collect relevant information and investigate the gunmen who were active in the concession.

With the passage of time, a large number of clues and intelligence collected from the concession were eliminated one by one, and the so-called gun-wielding masters in the concession were too different from the targets to be found by the special high school. Unable to find anyone with a gun, the Special High School had to settle for the next best thing and began to trace the source of the weapon from the black market, but the sales of Mauser rifles in China were very large, and the people of the Special High School did not find much useful information in the black market.

The actions of the special high class in the black market immediately aroused the alarm of an arms dealer like Hans, and with the previous rumor, Hans immediately made a judgment, and he immediately thought of Tang City. Hans didn't really see how Tang Cheng could marksmanship, but he knew that Tang Cheng was a master of action, as evidenced by the operation to eliminate the British arms dealer Henry. Especially when Hans called and was told that Tang Cheng had temporarily gone to Suzhou to run errands, Hans strengthened his judgment.

Hypothetizing that he went to other places to do errands, this was discussed with Zhang Jianghe before Tang Cheng left the residence, but Tang Cheng didn't expect that Hans didn't need the so-called evidence at all, and he had already determined that this matter was related to him. Hmph, see how you explain it to me when you come back! Knowing that Tang Cheng was not at the residence, Hans, who hung up the phone, couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, saying that he had grabbed Tang Cheng again.

Tang Cheng naturally wouldn't know at this moment, Hans had already guessed that this matter was related to him, in fact, even if Hans stood in front of him at this moment to identify, Tang Cheng wouldn't care about anything. According to the agreement between Tang Cheng and the director of Nanjing, the things he promised have basically been completed, as long as Zhang Jianghe recovers from his injuries to the point where he can move long distances, it will be the time to return to Nanjing, and at that time, even if Hans wants to control himself, I am afraid that there will be no chance.
