Chapter 46: The Tailor's Shop (2)

Tang Cheng's team members are close to 100 people, counting the families of these team members, Tang Cheng has to bear the lives of more than 400 people, and if it were not for the support of these shops in the city, the search team may have been disbanded long ago because of lack of funds. In order to support these team members under his command, Tang Cheng can be said to have tried his best, if you count the cost of buying intelligence from the eyeliner, the monthly expenditure of the search team is almost catching up with the cost of a second-level site outside the military command.

The area of the tailor shop targeted by Tang Cheng is not small, and the most important thing is that this tailor shop is actually the layout of the front shop and the back home, which is not only very suitable for housing the families of his team members, but also can even be used as a hiding place for Tang Cheng in an emergency. From the earliest contact with the military commander in Nanjing, Tang Cheng actually never really believed in the military commander, and he spared no effort to help Zhang Jianghe climb up, just to have a supportive person in Chongqing.

So from the very beginning, since Tang Cheng decided to form a search team, he has been making a backup plan, once the situation changes or the Tang family is targeted, Tang Cheng will activate this backup plan, and the whole family will flee Chongqing or even China. The search team's shops in Chongqing are usually used to house the family members and gather intelligence clues, but if the time comes, these shops may become the source of riots in the city.

Tang Cheng would never have too many places like this, so from the moment he set his sights on the tailor shop, Tang Cheng was ready to take it. Tang Cheng had already made his attitude clear at this moment, and it was not good for Zhang Jianghe, who wanted to stop him, to continue to oppose it, but Bai Zhanshan faintly agreed with Tang Cheng's decision to arrest people immediately, because in his opinion, only by catching the Japanese puppet spies lurking in the city would it be a sure credit, otherwise it would be empty talk.

Time passed little by little, and the situation in the streets outside was passed into the oil mill from time to time by the members of the team who disguised themselves as guests of the city. About an hour later, a young man who had just entered middle school hurriedly turned around from the street in front of him with a schoolbag in his hand. From a distance, I saw the schoolbag that the young man was carrying in his left hand, and the shopkeeper who was standing at the door of the oil mill and was greeting people immediately made a vague gesture, and the guy who was wiping the counter in the oil mill knew in his heart, and immediately went to the back with the basin.

"Captain, there's news from our people that the male target has appeared and is coming to the tailor's shop." The oil mill guy with the water basin passed the news to Tang Cheng, who was waiting behind the oil mill, according to the sign language played by the oil mill shopkeeper. Before Tang Cheng could react, Zhao Dashan and the others, who were already waiting a little impatiently, turned their heads to look at Tang Cheng in high spirits, they were waiting for Tang Cheng to give the order to start the operation. Tang Cheng didn't hesitate at all, just nodded lightly at Zhao Dashan, who quickly left through the back door of the oil mill with someone.

"Uncle Bai, let's go over and have a good time! Let's wear a good match today, I'll be a young master in a while, you're a housekeeper, don't leak the bottom! As he spoke, Tang Cheng grabbed the rag from the corner of the table and leaned over to wipe the leather shoes he was wearing. When Bai Zhanshan heard this, he looked at Tang Cheng's dress today, and he looked like a young master of a rich family, and his plain shirt was indeed like a housekeeper. Zhang Jianghe is missing an arm, which is not suitable for disguise reconnaissance, so he needs to sit in the backyard of the oil mill.

Bai Zhanshan followed Tang Cheng out of the back door of the oil mill, walked out of the lane behind the oil mill to the left, and then turned into the main street. When Bai Zhanshan and Tang Cheng entered the main street, Zhao Dashan and the others, who had already left the oil mill, had already faintly surrounded the street where the tailor shop was located according to the action plan. When Bai Zhanshan saw Zhao Dashan, the latter had already changed his outfit and was sitting in the teahouse at the corner of the street, silently monitoring the situation on the street.

"Xiao Wu, these people under you are good! At least those under Haiguang can't compare! Bai Zhanshan, who has entered the role state, has always lagged behind Tang Cheng by one position, and he looks like a follower who goes out with the young master of the family. Bai Zhanshan's words only made Tang Cheng secretly proud, but he didn't say anything to answer the other party, because Tang Cheng's attention at the moment was already focused on the man in the tunic at the corner of the street.

At this moment, the man in the tunic who was noticed by Tang Cheng just after crossing the street was Qian Songlin, and before Qian Songlin went out, he was still hesitating whether he wanted to go to the tailor shop as agreed. A large number of administrative organs are about to go south to Chongqing, and the news has already spread within the city government. Although he had betrayed information many times, it was just trivial matters, not even classified secrets. Now that even the chairman of the committee is going south to Chongqing, Qian Songlin has a hunch that the level of information that the other party wants from him may get closer and closer to the level of confidentiality.

Although Qian Songlin said that he was very clear about the difference between selling general information and selling confidential information, he knew that once he really handed over confidential information to the other party, he would really get on the thief ship. Before going out today, Qian Songlin struggled very much in his heart, but his loan sharks were about to expire, and if he couldn't raise money to repay his debts, if he was troubled by the person who asked for the debt, he might be dismissed. Being dismissed means that you don't have a decent job and become a jobless vagrant.

Qian Songlin hollowed out his mind before he became what he is now, how could he allow himself to become an unemployed vagrant. After some psychological struggle, Qian Songlin decided to visit the tailor shop, because he could only get money from here to pay off his debts. Qian Songlin looks inconspicuous, but this person is not useless, since the first piece of information was resold, Qian Songlin began to like to read detective novels, and according to the plot of the book, he learned some counter-reconnaissance methods by himself.

On the way to the tailor's shop, Qian Songlin, who had been walking, used his anti-reconnaissance methods many times in a row, until Tang Cheng saw him, Qian Songlin did not find the tracking team that followed him. Tang Cheng's first impression of Qian Songlin was that this person did not look like a gambler addicted to gambling, because Qian Songlin looked polite and polite, with a typical literati appearance, and he had been to many casinos in Tang Cheng, and he had never seen a person like Qian Songlin haunt a casino.

It's just that when Tang Cheng saw Qian Songlin walking across the street suddenly stopped on the side of the street and looked sideways at the window of the shop on the street, Tang Cheng immediately changed his original opinion of Qian Songlin. Qian Songlin is just a section chief of the Housing Department, and he is himself an idle Qian Songlin, how can he be counter-reconnaissance means? Although Qian Songlin's counter-reconnaissance looked very clumsy, it was not a skill that ordinary people should have, and Tang Cheng felt that Qian Songlin might still have a big secret hidden in him.

Qian Songlin tried to use the street window of the shop on the street to observe whether he was being followed, but the result naturally ended in failure. Qian Songlin, who didn't notice the abnormality, secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then didn't stop longer, but went straight to the tailor shop. Tang Cheng, who had discovered the target in advance, had already walked to the door of the tailor shop ahead of Qian Songlin at this time, and the corner of his eye saw that Qian Songlin was coming in this direction, Tang Cheng slanted the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, and went to the tailor shop first.

Now is not the time when the flow of people is the highest, and there are no other customers in the tailor shop, when Tang Cheng and Bai Zhanshan walked into the tailor shop, there was only one young man in the shop, who was lying on the cloth counter in a daze with nothing to do. Seeing a customer entering the store, the young man hurriedly got up from the counter and stood up, and while greeting him, his left foot also stepped on the wire bell pedal to contact the backyard. Many shops in Chongqing have such bell pedals under the counters, which are used to contact the shopkeepers who are often in the backyard, and after a few breaths, the owner of the tailor shop appears behind the counter.

The tailor shop not only sewed clothes, but also bundled all kinds of fashionable fabrics and some trinkets, and when the tailor shop owner came out from behind, Tang Cheng was looking at the trinkets on the side counter with an interested expression. Seeing these trinkets, Tang Cheng remembered Zhou Hong's makeup and the pair of twin sisters at home, after he came back from Shanghai, he didn't seem to have been with his family seriously, and Tang Cheng, who secretly blamed himself in his heart, planned to buy some trinkets here, and take them back to his family when he was free.

Tang Cheng was dressed like a rich young master at the moment, especially the leather shoes on his feet and the watch on his wrist looked very valuable, and the female boss of the tailor shop just glanced at Tang Cheng, and immediately relaxed her vigilance against Tang Cheng. In her cognition, the intelligence officers of the military command would not have such a flamboyant time, and Tang Cheng's face looked too tender, according to her estimate, Tang Cheng should be just a rich student who went out on vacation.

As for Bai Zhanshan, who was wearing a short shirt, the female owner of the tailor shop didn't pay too much attention, because as soon as Bai Zhanshan entered the door, he kept looking at the actress posters posted on the wall of the tailor shop. The young master of a rich family went out with a follower, and there was nothing curious about it. "Take this out and show me." Tang Cheng was greeting the young man from the tailor shop and coming out of the counter with the trinkets, the bell hanging above the door of the shop rang again, and Qian Songlin came in from outside at this time.

Qian Songlin obviously didn't expect that there were other people in the tailor shop, and he wanted to say hello to the female owner of the tailor shop, so he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth. Qian Songlin's abnormal behavior did not escape the secret observation of Bai Zhanshan and Tang Cheng, but both of them chose to remain quiet. Just waiting for Qian Songlin to pretend to buy fabrics, and when he really walked to the fabric counter, Tang Cheng, who had been leaning over and looking at the trinkets, finally stood up straight, and made a gesture at Bai Zhanshan.
