Chapter 43: Catching Rats
The precautions Tang Cheng had taken in advance were not in vain, and sure enough, as he expected, after the movie started, Aoki Masao, who had already sat down, got up and changed his position again, and Kuroko was about to get up and follow when he saw this, but Tang Cheng stretched out his hand to stop him. **, who was sitting in the corner, also noticed Aoki Masao's movements, but he didn't react when he saw that Tang Cheng didn't move, but continued to pretend to be a couple with Lao Ma's nephew, and continued to pretend to watch the movie while talking to each other.
Aoki Masao deliberately moved his position, and seeing that the other people in the movie theater didn't seem to notice him, he was relieved and got up again and moved to that specific position. Finding that the target had shifted its position again, Tang Cheng immediately leaned into Kuroko's ear and whispered a few words, and after the latter nodded, he immediately got up and walked out of the movie theater. After a while, when Kuroko came back, he already had two more packets of snacks in his hand. When uninformed people see this scene, they will think that this is a young man's greedy mouth, and he went out to buy snacks. But they would never have imagined that Heizi went out to not only buy snacks, but also passed Tang Cheng's order to Lao Zhou and them who were waiting at the monitoring point through the vendors outside the movie theater.
A pack of chestnuts, Tang Cheng only ate a few, and saw a middle-aged man sitting in front of Aoki Masao get up and stand up, Tang Cheng immediately used his fingers to flick a chestnut to the ** two. "I want to eat chestnuts too, you can go out and buy me a pack!" **The voice was not loud, but it was enough for the middle-aged man who got up to leave the theater to hear, and Lao Ma's nephew promised to leave the theater before the middle-aged man.
Is this a coincidence, the middle-aged man who left the scene early couldn't help but slow down, and when he walked out of the movie theater, he happened to see the young man who came out in front of him, who was at the door of the movie theater at the moment, taking a bag of chestnuts from a hawker. Ma Song, who was holding a chestnut in his hand, passed by the middle-aged man, and without even looking back, he went directly to the cinema. Although it was just a glimpse, Ma Song's swaying posture had already been seen by the middle-aged man, and he could finally put his mind at ease, such a person would never be used in the intelligence agencies of the national government.
The middle-aged man who was relaxed in his heart walked slowly along the street all the way to the west, but he didn't know that when Ma Song came out of the movie theater, Lao Zhou and the others who were waiting at the surveillance point had already focused their eyes on the door of the movie theater. The moment the middle-aged man appeared, Lao Zhou took a few people out of the surveillance point, and at the left and right streets, Lao Zhou arranged for people to wait for the middle-aged man's arrival.
Time passed minute by minute, and Masao Aoki, who had the patience to finally finish watching the movie, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because of this movie, he had watched it three times in a row. At the end of the movie, Aoki Masao walked out of the movie theater, Tang Cheng and Kuroko, who were competing with each other to fry chestnuts, walked in front of him, and the ** two who were talking about the plot of the movie while walking walked a few meters behind Aoki Masao, and everything looked the same as usual. Aoki Masao has already received the latest instructions, but the dictated instructions will not leave any traces, so Aoki Masao does not have to worry about the possibility of a crisis to himself.
After leaving the movie theater, Masao Aoki went to listen to another play, then went to the restaurant he frequented to eat, and then returned to his residence. "This person has a problem, and the person who left early in the cinema is even more problematic, from now on, the focus is on leaving the person and seeing if we can find more loaches through that person." At the end of the movie, Tang Cheng took advantage of the opportunity to fight with Kuroko and had an accidental contact with Aoki Masao. Through his own touch judgment skills, Tang Cheng can already be 100% sure that this person named Wang Kai is a Japanese spy, if he doesn't want to put a long line to catch a big fish, Tang Cheng may be able to catch this Japanese spy named Wang Kai now.
Before dinner, Lao Zhou and the others also returned to the courtyard that served as a safe house, and brought Tang Cheng a not-so-very good news. "Captain, according to your orders, we have been following the guy who left the cinema early. It turned out that this person actually entered a theater to listen to the play, and we didn't go up to the private room on the second floor that this person entered, but I heard Xiao Er say that there were other people in the private room. Later, I left someone in the theater, and I only had to wait for our people to come back to know who else was in the private room at that time. ”
Lao Zhou was one of the few safe people in the investigation team, and Tang Cheng never doubted his ability, since Lao Zhou was doing things according to his own instructions, Tang Cheng didn't say anything. waited until the moontop treetops, and the two people who Lao Zhou stayed in the theater came back, but they didn't bring back any good news, because they actually lost people. "We can't help it, that man is too slippery, he doesn't take the big road, and he specializes in those small alleys. We didn't dare to get too close, so he slipped away..."
"I don't blame you for this, I told you a long time ago, I'd rather lose it than be discovered by the target and followed." Tang Cheng seemed to have foreseen such a situation a long time ago, and just asked Kuroko to bring pen and paper. "Now is not the time to dwell on those things, if you lose it, you lose it, it's not a big deal. Now, tell me more about what that man looked like, and it would be better to remember everything you saw. ”
This was not the first time that Tang Cheng had drawn a portrait of a target based on a description, but it was the first time that these peripheral members of the investigation team had seen such a miraculous skill. As the two described and complemented each other, on the drawing paper in front of Tang Cheng, a facial sketch of a character gradually took shape. "It's so similar, that's what that guy looks like!" The two peripheral team members who had had direct contact with the target were dumbfounded, and this sketch of Tang Cheng was even more similar than the photo.
After confirming with the two peripheral team members, Tang Cheng finally repaired a few strokes, and finally put down the brush in his hand. "Lao Zhou, find a photo studio that knows and can retake this portrait, and we must make sure that each of our people has one." As Tang Cheng spoke, his heart suddenly moved, and he smeared the image of a mouse with a paintbrush at the bottom of the portrait with some wicked humor. "From now on, the middle-aged man in the movie theater is called Loach**, and this person is codenamed Mouse, and the operation against him is called Operation Rat Hunting."
Out of bad taste, Tang Cheng gave this new target a code name for a mouse, but he didn't expect that just a few days later, a whole 12 hidden agents belonging to three groups would be implicated behind this mouse. "Captain, didn't we hand it over to the Military Intelligence Department as soon as we confirmed the target? Why this time..."The old horse, who saw a little bit of a difference, asked Tang Cheng in a low voice.
Old Ma's question made Tang Cheng look at the other party in some surprise, "Even if you don't ask, I plan to tell you about this matter." "Tang Cheng didn't plan to hide it, since Lao Ma had already taken the initiative to ask about this matter, Tang Cheng also pushed the boat down the river and explained." During this time, our investigation team may have been silent for a while, the previous smooth sailing has caused too much discussion, and the military intelligence department is not monolithic, before Captain Zhang comes back from Shanghai, we had better not do anything rash. ”
Tang Cheng's words were not very obvious, but the old policemen under him were originally old fritters from the police stations in the city, and everyone already understood the meaning of Tang Cheng's words. "Captain, isn't this new White Captain also the captain of the operation, is he..."
Before the old policeman could finish speaking, Tang Cheng interrupted, "Don't think too much, Captain Bai is my Uncle Zhang's close friend, and he is also familiar with my late father, I treat him the same as Uncle Zhang." It's just that Captain Bai was transferred to Nanjing, and the foundation within the Intelligence Department is not stable, and it is not easy for us to get too close to him at this time, otherwise it will give people with a heart an opportunity to take advantage of, I have just said that the Intelligence Department is not monolithic. ”
After Tang Cheng explained like this, among the people present, there were still some people who didn't understand Tang Cheng's meaning, but Lao Zhou and the others had already understood, and carefully recalled Tang Cheng's words just now, and everyone was awe-struck. "That's why I said that we should be silent during this time, be patient and calm down, and carefully follow the existing lines in our hands. In the past, we only found clues and reported them to the intelligence department, but now we have a lot of time, so we might as well do it ourselves. ”
Those veteran policemen who didn't understand it just now can be regarded as reacting at this moment, daring to love their own squad leader, not to abandon their martial arts, but to prepare to jump out and do it alone. The investigation team was not in the official establishment of the Military Intelligence Department, and in the entire investigation team, there were only two women who were named as field officers of the Operations Section of the Intelligence Department, so no one objected to Tang Cheng's words.
According to Tang Cheng's arrangement, the investigation team focused all their work on Masao Aoki, who was alias Wang Kai, and the middle-aged man codenamed Loach**, and at the same time secretly searched for the new target who was named a mouse by Tang Cheng, as for Bai Zhanshan, Tang Cheng just kept in touch with the other party on the phone. "Captain, I found it, our men found the mouse." Two days later, one morning, an excited old Zhou broke into Tang Cheng's house and brought good news to Tang Cheng, who was having breakfast.
"Well done, go... Say as you go. Hearing that the mouse had been found, Tang Cheng didn't even bother to eat, just grabbed two buns casually, and rushed to the safe house with Lao Zhou in a hurry. In Tang Cheng's cognition, this new target named Mouse is obviously much more important than the middle-aged man named Aoki Masao and Loach ** under the pseudonym Wang Kai, Tang Cheng faintly felt that through this mouse, the investigation team may be able to search for more Japanese spies.
