Chapter 111: Concealment of the situation

Important things, Tang Cheng likes face-to-face discussions, so he takes the eager Ma San to Hans's restaurant. Hans didn't expect Tang Cheng to bring a stranger to him, and he had the impression that Tang Cheng had always liked to act alone. "Don't worry, it's my own people, my own people I can entrust my secrets." Tang Cheng's introduction to Ma San was very concise, but Hans heard Tang Cheng's attitude from it, a person who could trust his own secrets, was obviously one of the people Tang Cheng believed in the most.

When Tang Cheng was still in Nanjing, he had close contacts with foreigners, and Ma San would not be surprised by this. Patiently waiting for Tang Cheng to light the cigarette, Hans spoke, "This news was learned by accident by an idler of mine, and it has been confirmed by me in many ways, and the authenticity of this news is absolutely undoubted. Hans, who was sitting behind the desk, opened the drawer of the desk, took out a few photos from the drawer and handed them to Tang Cheng and Ma San.

The person in the photo wearing the rank of Nakasa is the protagonist of this news, Miyamoto Jingichi, who is a logistics officer of the Kwantung Army. Miyamoto had come to Shanghai a day or two and was currently staying in a hotel in the French Concession, and my men had ascertained that the goods he had brought with him from Shanghai were now stored in warehouse No. 2 at the Shiliupu Wharf. As to why this man did not go to the military dock and lived in the French Concession, I guess he was going to use a foreign cargo ship to transport the goods. ”

Hans's last sentence made Tang Cheng frown slightly, it seems that the target is a guy who doesn't like to play cards according to common sense! Hans had been paying attention to Tang Cheng's reaction, and when he saw Tang Cheng frowning slightly, he explained it. "When Miyamoto entered the French Concession, he used a Chinese identity, and when he checked into the French Hotel, his registered name was Jia Wanchun, and I didn't contact you at the first time, just to find out if Miyamoto's deliberate move to stay in the French Concession was a trap."

Tang Cheng nodded lightly when he heard this, Hans could explain these at this time, and he could already show that this Miyamoto should not be a trap set by Tegaoke. "So what do you mean? Since you are in the French Concession, and the goods are also stored at the 16th Shop Wharf, you can directly tie people up and transfer the goods, and those people under you are enough, why do you still want to come to me? Tang Cheng put the picture in his hand and looked up at Hans behind the desk.

Hans, who was looked up directly by Tang Cheng, shrugged his shoulders, and then spread his hands and made a helpless expression, "Don, have you forgotten our previous deal!" More than half of my men have already returned to Berlin and will not be able to return anytime soon. Because Ma San was still present, Hans's meaning was very subtle, but Tang Cheng understood that half of the people Hans said at the moment should be Hans's henchmen, not all his subordinates.

Hans's explanation did not let Tang Cheng's slightly frowning brow loosen, on the contrary, he felt more and more that something was not quite right. "Hans, you should know my habits, if you don't make it clear what you are concealing, I will never get involved in this matter." Tang Cheng's expression became serious, and Ma San, who originally looked lazy, also sat up straight at this time, and there was a faint hint of anger in his eyes.

Hans, who looked at Ma San like this, was frightened, and hurriedly waved his hand at Tang Cheng, and explained with a white face. "Don, I didn't lie to you! I've only known this news for two days, and it's already good to have this information in the time. And it was you who interjected and interrupted me just now, and it wasn't that I deliberately concealed it. Think about it, isn't it the whole way I said? ”

Hans, who could force him, showed this anxious white face, Tang Cheng secretly laughed in his heart, but he was sure that Hans must still have something to hide from him. "Whatever you say, anyway, I'm still the same as I just said, since you deliberately concealed something, then I wish you success!" Tang Cheng deliberately said this with a straight face, and then got up from the sofa and stood up, looking like he was going to leave immediately. Ma San came with Tang Cheng, and seeing that Tang Cheng was leaving, Ma San naturally stood up as well.

"Tang, don't leave yet, can you listen to my explanation!" Seeing that Tang Cheng and the two were leaving, Hans hurriedly turned out from behind the table, he was smart, he didn't stop Tang Cheng and the two directly, but blocked the door with an arrow. "Don, I know, I really told you everything!" Hans opened his arms to block the door, and while his mouth couldn't stop arguing, he didn't forget to pay attention to Tang Cheng's facial reaction.

Hans blocked the door and refused to give way, so Tang Cheng had to stand where he was and said to Hans, "Hans, you are all understandable people, according to what I know about you, if you only have this information on hand, you will never call me, because it is too risky." You should also know my habits, if the situation is unclear or the information is incomplete, I will never take action, not to mention that the other party is still an active officer of the Kwantung Army. ”

Ma San was completely unaware of the things Tang Cheng had done since he came to Shanghai, but Hans was not Ma San, after all, when Tang Cheng carried out these actions, he didn't ask Hans for help, and when he heard Tang Cheng say that he was worried about the other party's Kwantung Army officer, Hans finally couldn't help laughing, "Tang, are you joking with me?" The other party is just a logistics lieutenant of the Kwantung Army, and you are the one who killed the gendarmerie Dazuo in the New Asia Hotel! ”

Hans's words made Tang Cheng's old face blush slightly, but he still refused to admit that his excuse just now was completely untenable, "You don't tell me about the New Asia Hotel, I told you, and that matter has nothing to do with me." Since we talked about this little logistics officer of the Kwantung Army, let's talk about the Tao here, if there is nothing else in this, why does this Zhongzuo of the Kwantung Army have to live in a hotel in the French Concession? According to what I know about the Japanese army, officers on active duty like them, if they leave the station, they will only live in the prescribed place. ”

"Although Shanghai is a metropolis, the concession is not currently under the control of the Japanese army, and according to common sense, after this Kwantung Army Zhongzuo came to Shanghai, he should live in Hongkou District, not the French Concession." Seeing that Hans still refused to let go of the door, Tang Cheng had no choice but to turn around and go back and sit down again on the sofa. "You just told the identity of the target, my first reaction was that I felt that this was a trap of Tegaoke, especially when he also stored the goods on the sixteenth shop wharf, which is too abnormal!"

"According to what I know of you, although you love money, you love your life even more. You are not a fool, you can naturally see the problem, since you can see the problem, and insist that there is a possibility of action, it means that you already know the problem. But what you just told me doesn't have an explanation for the problem, and I don't know why you're hiding it, but I don't want to be a fool. Tang Cheng had already explained clearly at this moment, and even Ma San, who had not spoken all the time, understood what Tang Cheng meant, how could Hans not hear it.

"Well, I admit that there are some things that I didn't make clear, but you have to understand that the things I concealed didn't do you any harm." With a wry smile on his face, Hans finally let go of the door, he didn't expect that in such a short period of time, Tang Cheng had already understood the fact that he had something to hide. "There are some things that I didn't say because I couldn't reveal the identity of the informant. In other words, once I've explained everything, you'll know from them who the informant who gave me this news is. ”

Hans was very embarrassed to explain, but Tang Cheng remained silent, and the more Hans was like this, the more Tang Cheng wanted to know who Hans's informant was. Ma San didn't understand what kind of trick Tang Cheng was fighting with this big-nosed foreigner, and after seeing Tang Cheng sit down in the sofa again, he also sat down, reached out and grabbed an apple from the plate in front of him and ate it, completely treating himself as a bystander. Ma San's movements, as if he had suddenly inspired Tang Cheng, returned his gaze to Hans's body, and Tang Cheng, who was looking at Hans, suddenly tilted the corners of his mouth and showed a smile.

"Hans, I can try to guess, you are so nervous about this person who reported your news, thinking that this person's identity is very secret, and it will not be easy for this person to know such confidential information. Although this Miyamoto did not want anyone else to know that he had come to Shanghai and brought a batch of goods, it was impossible for him to transport this shipment back to Japan on his own, and he must have an assistant, or someone who could provide him with the necessary help. ”

"In this case, the person who can still know the news is likely to be a Japanese, and he is also a Japanese soldier, or a Japanese military officer." When Tang Cheng spoke, he didn't stare at Hans, but Ma San, who had been watching from the sidelines, was eating apples while secretly paying attention to Hans's speech. When Tang Cheng said that the person who provided the information was a Japanese, Ma San obviously saw Hans's eyebrows tremble, and when Tang Cheng said that the other party was a Japanese officer, Ma San saw Hans swallow his saliva.

That's right! Ma San, whose eyes were round, subconsciously turned his head to look at Tang Cheng, he couldn't understand how Tang Cheng could guess this. Aware that Ma San was looking at him with round eyes at the moment, Tang Cheng, who understood in his heart, did not say anything to explain, but raised his eyes to look at Hans. "Hans, now that I've guessed right, do you still feel the need to continue to hide it? Aren't you worried that when I act one day, I will inadvertently kill this person you are deliberately hiding? ”
