Chapter 13: There Are Thieves
Tang Cheng had been secretly monitoring this woman surnamed Tian for a week, according to this woman's living habits, as long as it was after dark, she would not go out, but today, the situation changed suddenly, and the woman actually went out after dark. Tang Cheng, who happened to be in the store, immediately made arrangements, and personally led two teams of people to quietly follow, until they followed all the way to a tavern.
Watching the woman walk into the tavern on the side of the street, the two old policemen who had been selected as the first surveillance team also walked into the tavern with their front and back feet, and a few minutes later, another group of Tang Cheng's men also entered the tavern. The group of veteran policemen transferred by Wang Bingzhang for Tang Cheng are all old fritters in various sub-bureaus, and after a few days of simple special training by Tang Cheng with carrots and sticks, they immediately showed their respective strengths.
Yuko Tanaka, who goes by the pseudonym Qi Tanaka, doesn't realize that she has been followed, even though the first group of people in Tang Cheng is sitting at a table close to her, Yuko Tanaka still doesn't notice it. The time is getting closer and closer, and Yuko Tanaka, who has been lurking in Chongqing for more than a year, is not the slightest nervous, because she knows that the Chongqing station of the intelligence department is almost a decoration, and the intelligence from Zhang Hanchun's mouth shows that the counter-espionage ability of the Chongqing station is really poor.
Therefore, Yuko Tanaka thought that as long as she did not shout on the street that she was a Japanese intelligence agent, she would never be exposed when she was lurking in Chongqing. When there was only a minute left before the time of the connection, the team member in charge of intelligence delivery finally appeared, and Yuko Tanaka, who had made eye contact with the other party, immediately took out a pack of cigarettes from her pocket and threw it on the table, and the information collected and summarized was hidden in the cigarette case.
The connector walked briskly past Yuko Tanaka, and after just a casual arm swing, the cigarette on Yuko Tanaka's table was gone. Yuko Tanaka and the connector thought they were doing smart, but they didn't know that from the beginning of eye contact, they had been discovered by two groups of people arranged in the tavern by Tang Cheng at the same time. So as soon as the connector got the cigarette case, one of the people in the group near the door got up and left the tavern, and the connector would be their next target.
"Captain, I can already confirm that there is indeed something wrong with the woman, and the short man in the shirt is here to connect with the woman. We saw with our own eyes, and the woman took out a box of cigarettes and put it on the table, and the short man took it. When the person who left the tavern reported to Tang Cheng, he happened to see the connector coming out of the tavern, so he immediately pointed it out to Tang Cheng. After night fell, the vision was not very clear, and the dim light at the entrance of the tavern was not enough for Tang Cheng and the others to see the face of the person clearly.
"You continue to follow the woman, this new target will be dealt with by me, and I will go to the tea shop to meet you later." Fortunately, Tang Cheng had the skills to be around, so he immediately turned on the target locking skill and followed alone. Unlike Yuko Tanaka's self-righteousness, the connector in charge of intelligence delivery was very careful, and half an hour was about to pass, but the goods were still going around near the tavern, which made Tang Cheng very bored.
Tang Cheng had already used the system skill to firmly lock the opponent, as long as the straight-line distance between the opponent and himself did not exceed one hundred meters, it was impossible to get rid of the lock of the system skill, so Tang Cheng followed all the way, and the other party has not been able to find out. Half an hour later, perhaps after making sure that he was not being followed, the connector in the shirt finally turned into the middle of a main street, and a quarter of an hour later, Tang Cheng, who was standing on the corner, watched the man enter a small shop.
Tang Cheng stood at the corner of the street and waited patiently, a cigarette was finished, the target had not yet appeared, but the skill hint showed that the target was in the small shop at the moment. Tang Cheng, who threw his cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it with his shoes, raised his feet and walked towards the small shop. Unlike Nanjing, most of the street shops in Chongqing are equipped with glass, and many of the street shops here are only pasted with window paper, so it is indeed a bit troublesome to see the situation in the store from the outside.
Tang Cheng didn't look outside the store, but directly pushed the door and walked in, and the spicy taste that greeted him made Tang Cheng feel like he had returned to the hot pot restaurant in the later life. It has been more than three months since he came to Chongqing, Tang Cheng can already speak fluent Chongqing dialect, and Tang Cheng's immature face that can deceive people is very deceptive, even if the people in the store recognize Tang Cheng as a fresh face, they will not feel that Tang Cheng is a person with a mysterious background. Tang Cheng had obviously thought about these things before he walked into this small shop, and he had prepared for the worst.
Chongqing is not Nanjing, if Tang Cheng is tracking the target in Nanjing at the moment, he can get a lot of help with the help of the sign of the intelligence department. But this is Chongqing, the brand of the intelligence department may not work here, and Zhang Jianghe has just opened up the situation, and the help that Tang Cheng wants can only be a desire now. Tang Cheng, who had dealt with Japanese intelligence agents in both Nanjing and Shanghai, knew that the Japanese intelligence teams lurking in the shadows were generally composed of four to six people, and arresting only one or two of them would not have the purpose of completely destroying the entire intelligence group.
What's more, if the leader of the group who controls the radio station is not caught, this intelligence team will still have the possibility of a resurgence, and Tang Cheng is facing such a difficult choice at this moment. Did you choose to continue to track this connector, and then find the other members of the intelligence team, and then wipe out the entire intelligence team? Or do you want to start first, catch one by one, and use this case first to make Zhang Jianghe's name louder in Chongqing?
It is naturally good to be able to catch the entire intelligence team along the way, but as long as there is a slight mistake during this period, it is likely that the intelligence team will be startled, so that the intelligence team can escape and find an opportunity to dive deep. Once the other party chooses to dive deeply, the team members will not take the initiative to contact each other, which means that even if Tang Cheng can catch the people in the group, he may lose the possibility and opportunity to completely destroy this intelligence team. Tang Cheng, who was already very familiar with the structure of the Japanese intelligence team, only thought about it for a while, and made the decision to take the initiative.
Tang Cheng pushed the door and walked into this small shop, the oncoming spicy smell deeply stimulated Tang Cheng's senses and taste buds, just casually glanced at the store, Tang Cheng deliberately showed a look of impatience, and found a random table in the store to sit down. The scale of this shop is not large, and there are only six tables in the store, and when Tang Cheng sat down, there were only three tables of customers in the store, and of course Tang Cheng himself was also included in these three customers.
Tang Cheng, who sat down, did not look around, but looked directly at the table on his left, and the guy who came over with a teapot and a tea bowl looked at Tang Cheng's line of sight, and immediately couldn't help laughing. The guest at the table on Tang Cheng's left hand side was also alone, and when Tang Cheng came in, the man was munching on his desk, looking at the pile of bones piled up on the table, and everyone would secretly praise this person's good appetite. What really surprised Tang Cheng was that this diner with an excellent appetite was not a sturdy and mighty man, but a young woman.
Tang Cheng felt that the other party was young because this woman was wearing a red dress, and there was a red rope tied to the braids, and looking at it from the side, Tang Cheng felt that this woman was about 20 years old. After listening to the introduction of the guy in the shop, Tang Cheng, who was full of relish, immediately asked for two hooves wrapped in spicy flavor, and the soft and fresh fragrance after the entrance made Tang Cheng couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows. All Tang Cheng's actions after entering the store were completely a young gourmand who came here to eat hooves, but no one noticed that Tang Cheng's eyes had landed on the door connecting the back kitchen.
The connector who Tang Cheng followed all the way was not in the store at the moment, but the prompt area of the system's skills showed that the target that had been locked by the skill was in this store. After Tang Cheng ate the first hoof, he realized that this shop was not just a front room, it also had a back kitchen. Since the system skill prompts that the target is still in this shop, the only possibility is that the target should be in the back kitchen of this shop at the moment, or the target should be a cook or a helper.
After pondering and understanding this, Tang Cheng's mood became more and more happy when he dealt with the second hoof, and when he felt that he could no longer eat anything, he suddenly realized that the table in front of him was also like the woman in red, already full of bones. Unconsciously, Tang Cheng ordered four hooves before and after, and Tang Cheng, who originally planned to keep two for Zhang Jianghe to bring back, had no choice but to ask for two hooves to pack and prepare to take away. "Little brother, I'm really sorry, the last two hooves left in the shop have been asked for by the guests over there, so..."
Tang Cheng smoked a cigarette very comfortably, waiting for the young man to send his packed hooves, but he waited for the young man to look sorry. Tang Cheng turned his head to look at the woman in red when he heard this, but he only saw the back of a person walking out of the store with a lotus leaf bag, and Tang Cheng, who secretly screamed in his heart, had to check out and leave, saying that Zhang Jianghe really didn't have this mouthful.
Tang Cheng checked out and left, but he didn't actually go far, but immediately activated his light body skills, and went directly to the roof of the hoof shop under the cover of night. Moving along the ridge of the roof to the back kitchen of the hoof shop, Tang Cheng, who slowly leaned down, was about to uncover the roof tiles, when he suddenly heard a shout from his side. "Catch a thief... There are thieves on the roof! This shout came too suddenly, so that Tang Cheng on the roof didn't react for the first time, and after a few breaths, when Tang Cheng on the roof turned his head to look in the direction where the sound came, he only saw a lotus leaf bag flying in front of him slowly getting bigger.
