Chapter 44: Jokes

When Cao Wanchun was guessing in the director's office, Tang Cheng had already appeared outside the movie theater with Zhou Hong's makeup, and slowly parked the car near an intersection next to the movie theater, Tang Cheng took out the portrait and handed it to Zhou Hong's makeup. "Look again, remember this face in the portrait carefully, the person we are going to arrest is her." Karashiro's sketching skills were greatly appreciated by the Intelligence Department, and Haruko Ikeda in this portrait is almost identical to herself.

Before leaving the Zhang family's old house, Zhang Jianghe specially told Zhou Hongxiang to obey Tang Cheng's instructions in action. Reaching out to take the portrait, Zhou Hongxiang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, did not say much, but immediately opened the portrait and carefully remembered the face on the portrait according to Tang Cheng's explanation. After more than ten breaths, Zhou Hongxiang returned the portrait to Tang Cheng, and began to adjust the position of the quick-draw holster on his belt, so as not to affect the speed of the gun.

"Don't worry, there is still an hour left for the first movie screening in this cinema. You follow me when you get out of the car in a while, let's take a look around this piece first and see if this movie theater has a back door. Tang Cheng stretched out his hand to push the car door as he spoke, and got out of the car, and Zhou Hongxiang saw this, and also came out of the other side of the car. Don't be nervous, and don't look around to make people pay attention to you, just like we did the day before yesterday. This is the first time Zhou Hongxiang has participated in the arrest of Japanese spies, and after getting out of the car, he looked a little nervous.

Tang Cheng walked around the cinema with Zhou Hong's makeup, in addition to the small door on the left side of the cinema for staff to enter and exit, this cinema also has a back door dedicated to the entry and exit of film and equipment. "What to do? Not counting the main entrance, there are two exits to this cinema, but there are only two of us, and we can't control the three doors at all. Why don't you call home and call your godfather to help? Zhou Hongxiang looked down at the time on her watch a little nervously, and there were less than 20 minutes left before the first screening in the cinema.

"No!" Tang Cheng smiled and reached out and touched the top of Zhou Hongxiang's head, "It's true that this movie theater has three doors, but don't forget, the target is a woman." The female staff in the cinema will not be projectionists, so the back door for entering and exiting film and equipment will not be ignored. Female staff in movie theaters are generally engaged in light work such as selling tickets and checking tickets, and then there are support staff, such as cleaning staff or back-office, who have to go through the side door when they commute to and from the movie theater. ”

As he spoke, Tang Cheng pointed to the position where the two of them were standing at the moment, "Standing here, whether it is the main entrance of the cinema or the side door over there, you can see it clearly." You will wait here for a while, you are a woman, the target should not be too defensive, if you find the target appearing, you can capture it directly, if the opponent resists or has a weapon in hand, you can shoot the target. Zhou Hongxiang glanced left and right according to her words, and sure enough, the main entrance and side door of the cinema could be clearly seen here.

Tang Cheng decided to enter the cinema alone, in fact, he was not afraid that the target would take the opportunity to escape, but wanted to use this opportunity to let Zhou Hongxiang know that capturing Japanese spies was also a dangerous thing. In Shanghai before, Zhou Hongxiang only did the periphery of the underground party on weekdays, and that time Zhou Hongxiang was injured and fell into a coma due to the siege of spies, which was only a very small emergency.

After learning Zhang Jianghe's intentions, Tang Cheng himself also thought about this, since Zhou Hongxiang has appeared in his life, he should have a general understanding of what he does, such as arresting Japanese spies. One reason for arranging Zhou Hong's makeup to stay outside the cinema was because Tang Cheng was worried that he would show his feet if he entered the cinema without experience in this area. Another reason is because Zhou Hongxiang is a young woman after all, and staying outside the movie theater will not attract too much attention.

After repeatedly explaining that Zhou Hongmakeup had some matters to pay attention to, Tang Cheng turned around and walked towards the main entrance of the cinema, this was the first screening of the cinema today, and there were very few people who came to see the movie. Suddenly, Tang Cheng, who was still more than ten meters away from the main entrance of the movie theater, stopped, and when Zhou Hongxiang turned his head to see this strange scene, he saw Tang Cheng who was parked over there turn around again and actually walked back.

"Let's go, don't stop here, get in the car and talk." When passing by Zhou Hongxiang's side, Tang Cheng reached out and grabbed one of Zhou Hongxiang's arms, and the two walked towards the car parked on the street. After getting into the car, Tang Cheng didn't speak for a while, and Zhou Hongxiang in the co-pilot seat didn't know what was going on at all, so he could only turn his head to look at Tang Cheng with a suspicious face, waiting for the other party to give him a reasonable explanation.

"That's... Well, we might need some help. At this moment, Tang Cheng was completely lacking in his previous wisdom, and he was a little stammering when he spoke. Seeing that Zhou Hong's makeup was holding his breath and concentrating to hear what he said clearly, Tang Cheng, whose face was flushed, finally explained the reason. "Well, it's my fault, I'm taking it for granted. I had only confirmed that the target was lurking in the theater, but I had neglected to see if the target had any other companions here, so we needed help. ”

Because of the smooth sailing, Tang Cheng made a joke negligently, and after he reluctantly told Zhou Hongxiang the reason, the latter turned his head to look out of the car window with a forced smile, and said in his heart that you dare to make mistakes. Because of a whim in his heart, he almost made a mistake, and Tang Cheng was very remorseful at the moment. In case the female spy still has an accomplice in the movie theater, and there is chaos when she arrests the other party and her accomplice escapes, then Zhou Hongxiang, who is guarding outside the movie theater, may encounter danger.

As soon as he thought of this, Tang Cheng, who calmed down with the help of smoking, only felt that his back was in a cold sweat, he knew how Zhou Hongxiang was injured in the arrest operation, and the furious Zhang Jianghe would definitely peel his skin. After smoking a cigarette, Tang Cheng's mood gradually calmed down, and Tang Cheng, who was secretly reviewing in his heart, immediately started the car, he urgently needed a place to make a phone call. This time, Tang Cheng didn't plan to take care of his face, but decided to call Cao Wanchun and take the initiative to ask the other party for help.

Tang Cheng called the intelligence department, and at the instruction of the director, he was directly transferred to the director's office, but Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone knew nothing. Cao Wanchun, who picked up the phone, placed one end of the handset of the telephone handle next to the megaphone at the suggestion of the director, so that the director on the other side of the desk could also hear Tang Cheng's voice. In front of the director, Cao Wanchun didn't dare to hint at Tang Cheng in his words, he could only hope in his heart that Tang Cheng would never say something that should not be said on the phone.

Tang Cheng didn't know that there was still a director on the other end of the phone, and every word he said on the phone could be heard by the director. The phone was connected, and after hearing Cao Wanchun's voice in the receiver, Tang Cheng, who was completely kept in the dark, spoke urgently. "Uncle Cao, don't talk yet, listen to me first." Tang Cheng's hurried voice on the phone made Cao Wanchun and the director froze for a moment, and the two of them became nervous almost at the same time, they both mistakenly thought that Tang Cheng's operation had failed and that there was an uncontrollable situation.

"I was going to arrest the female spy directly, but it turned out that it was all outside the movie theater, and I suddenly remembered, what if this female spy still has accomplices in the movie theater? There are only two people in the cinema, but there are three exits in the cinema, and I haven't checked the other staff in the cinema, so you can send me some people! I'm in trouble with this! ”

Cao Wanchun and the director listened very carefully, but with Tang Cheng's narration, there was a faint smile on their faces. Just now, the two of them were still worried about Tang Cheng's going, and now it seems that Tang Cheng is still a child who has not grown up at all, listening to the tone of this kid on the phone, he is an unlucky child who did something wrong and remembered to ask his parents for help! At this moment, Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone didn't know that his phone still had such an effect.

"Alright, I see, you kid just like to do things that are anticlimactic. When there is any action in the future, you'd better ask your Uncle Zhang, and I will send someone over to help immediately. At the director's suggestion, Cao Wanchun hung up the phone. Tang Cheng's action was self-proclaimed, but after all, he was also doing things for the Intelligence Department, and Cao Wancai would not sit idly by and ignore it in public and private, not to mention that the director's expression at the moment could already explain the problem.

"Tell your people to go slowly, this bastard deserves to wait. This kid has never suffered a loss, and this time I have to let him remember the lesson, so as not to suffer a big loss in the future! After listening to the call from Tang Cheng, the director's mood was obviously much better. Although he was impatient, Cao Wanchun still followed the instructions of the director and notified his subordinates to rush over to respond, and specially explained that he wanted to slow down.

Most of Cao Wanchun's action team members were puzzled when they received the order, but they still deliberately slowed down according to Cao Wanchun's order, and when they arrived at the movie theater, Tang Cheng and the others waited for almost an hour. "Xiao Wu, don't blame the brothers, this is an order from above, we arrived at this point is already very good, if we follow the order from above, we should appear in half an hour." One of Cao Wanchun's cronies whispered to Tang Cheng, and the latter's face was a little better.

"I'm famous now, I don't even have to think about it to know, when we return to the intelligence compound, there must be someone waiting to see my jokes!" Tang Cheng thought for a while before he reacted, the person sent by Cao Wanchun was late, and said that he had received an order from above, Tang Cheng knew that his joke was a big one, and there must be someone in the intelligence department waiting to see his liveliness.
