Japanese-style houses are generally not very large, but unlike Chinese-style houses, Japanese-style houses generally have front and back yards, and the backyards are more delicately decorated. Tang Cheng climbed the wall with his backhand, slowly slid down against the wall, and then squatted and knelt by the wall, carefully observing the courtyard that was not very large. The yard is small in size, but it is very clean, with a few flowers and trees scattered in the corners of the yard, and a gravel path paved with small pieces of gravel in the center.

Tang Cheng's position at the moment, just behind a flower tree, carefully observing the situation in the yard, Tang Cheng got up and walked around the flowers and trees, and went straight to the nearest room along the gravel path. There was a faint sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and Tang Cheng, who had already leaned sideways against the wall, didn't have time to pay attention to this, but slowly leaned forward, trying to see the situation in the room clearly from the window. There was no one in the house, Tang Cheng outside the window only saw a flower cat squatting on the windowsill, Tang Cheng raised his eyebrows, and reached out to push open the window and get into the room.

The flower cat raised by the head of the household didn't seem to be surprised by Tang Cheng's appearance, it just stared at Tang Cheng for a while, then turned its head and jumped on the shelf by the windowsill, and put its butt against Tang Cheng into a state of false sleep. Seeing this, Tang Cheng secretly laughed unconsciously, and said in his heart that this flower cat's newness is really big enough. Just when Tang Cheng hid in the backyard of a private house and looked for an opportunity to hide himself, the special high school that got the news had already sent someone to the scene, although Kenichi Yamamoto directly accepted the command of the local, but he was still nominally a person from the Shanghai headquarters.

Kenichi Yamamoto, who was only shot in the neck and back, did not look terrible in death, Kenichi Yamamoto, who died because of a large amount of blood loss, looked just a little pale at the moment. However, the two corpses dragged out of the car by the gendarmes looked very terrifying, especially the driver who was the first to be shot, and half of his head was directly missing. Of the four people in the car, only one of the guards sitting in the front passenger seat survived, but unfortunately he was in a deep coma at the moment after being penetrated by a bullet in his chest.

Kenichi Yamamoto and three people were killed at the scene, but also a gendarmerie commander and two ordinary gendarmes were killed together. "Yamamoto Daisa: They were all hit by bullets of the same caliber, and according to the answers of the gendarmes at the scene, they never saw the gunman's figure, which means that the murderer should be a very experienced veteran." The traces of the special high class experts give a concise judgment.

"Based on the bullet holes on the car, we have analyzed and preliminarily judged that the bullet that penetrated the front windshield of the car should have come from the roof of the movie theater over there. When the secret agents on the side of the trace expert heard this, they were all shocked. The cinema was more than 300 meters away from the street where the car was located, and at such a distance, shooting and killing several people one after another, there should be no one among them who could do it.

"Not all bullets come from that direction!" Just when everyone's hearts were shocked, this trace expert named Black Vine suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the left side of the street and said. "The bullet that pierced the car did come from the direction of the movie theater, but the bullet that killed Yamamoto and the three gendarmes at the end should have come from this direction. The gendarmerie has already sent someone to investigate, and there will be an answer later, and if they can find relevant clues, it means that there is more than one murderer, and maybe the murderer is a team of more than two people. ”

Kuroto's judgment still needs relevant clues to support it, and the only thing he can rely on at the moment is to use the location of the bullet holes on Kenichi Yamamoto's body to simply guess the direction of the bullet. The bullets that pierced the car and killed Kenichi Yamamoto obviously came from two directions, and in Kuroto's natural understanding, it was impossible for Kenichi Yamamoto's murderer to move from the roof of the movie theater over there to the corner of the street in such a short period of time in broad daylight, so the murderers must have been more than two people.

At first hearing, Kuroteng's judgment didn't seem to have much basis, but everyone present only groaned slightly, and then nodded one after another. All of these people made the same mistakes as Kuroto, but they didn't know that what they couldn't do, not that others couldn't do the same. The gendarmes sent to the roof on the left side of the street soon made a discovery, and they found several bullet casings upstairs, which were identified by the people of the special high school as belonging to Mauser rifle cartridges of 7.92 caliber.

The 7.92 caliber Mauser rifle cartridge is not rare in China, after all, there are so-called German armourers under the command of the Nationalist Government, and the Mauser rifle has a large market in China. The scene of the explosion on the roof of the cinema was quickly cleared, and the dead and wounded gendarmes were carried off the roof, and they also found three Mauser rifle cartridge casings on the roof. "Look, I'll just say that the murderers are in a gang, and they must all have used Mauser rifles." The same Mauser rifle cartridge casings made Kuroto excited.

The gendarmerie was searching for the entire Hongkou district, but the murderer was never found, and an hour later, bad news came out of the special high school, they compared the bullet casings found at the two scenes, and finally found that the bullet casings were fired from a rifle. This news annoys Kuroto, who speculates that there are more than two murderers, and while everyone else is wondering how the killer can move quickly between the two locations, Kuroto is secretly scolding the damn murderer for disgrace himself.

In fact, for the special high school, the question in the assassination case of Kenichi Yamamoto is not only how the murderer managed to move quickly between the two locations, but also the several shots fired by the murderer on the roof of the movie theater. At a firing range of more than 350 meters, Kenichi Nayamamoto's two bodyguards and one driver were shot in succession, a marksmanship that only a few elite shooters could have achieved even in the Japanese army.

The Japanese military intelligence department, which has been carrying out intelligence infiltration into China since the early years of the Republic of China, has a fairly good understanding of the strength of the Chinese army, and the so-called sharpshooters in the Chinese army do not possess such marksmanship. Soon, there was a new theory within the special high school, and they were more inclined to this murderer of Kenichi Yamamoto as a lone killer hired by the intelligence department, because they believed that neither the Chinese army nor the intelligence department had such a good marksman.

It's just that no matter what judgment the special high class makes, the most important thing at the moment is to find the guy who assassinated Kenichi Yamamoto. As time passed, the gendarmerie unit blocking the Hongkou District increased its strength again, and with the cooperation of the police, they carried out a second round of detailed searches in the Hongkou District. All the buildings in Hongkou District were carefully searched by the military police, even places such as banks and hospitals, but the results of the search disappointed the military police headquarters and the special high school.

The murderer of Kenichi Yamamoto, who shot and assassinated him in the street, seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and two searches by the gendarmerie and the police department did not find the slightest trace. "It's impossible, Kenichi Yamamoto was still alive when there was an explosion on the roof of the movie theater. It was also after hearing the explosion that the gendarmes began to close the various passages connecting the Hongkou District to the outside, so it was absolutely impossible for the murderer to escape from the Hongkou District. He's definitely still in Hongkou District, but he hasn't been found yet. ”

There has been no news of the murderer, and the people of the special high school judged that the murderer had left Hongkou District, but the military police headquarters refused to accept this inference. The two sides argued, and finally decided to conduct another full search before it got dark. The three successive house-to-house searches have made the people in Hongkou District panic, and the Japanese living in Hongkou District are better, and others, such as Koreans and people from other countries, will inevitably be taken advantage of by the military police and police who are searching.

The movement of the military police to blockade Hongkou District is not small, and some people who are closely following the movements in Hongkou District can give full play to their imagination even though they cannot enter Hongkou District to learn about it for themselves. Soon, a rumor appeared in the intelligence black market in the concession, and unlike the last Izakaya murder, this time the matter may be even more troublesome, because Hongkou District has been cordoned off by the gendarmerie for a whole afternoon. People outside Hongkou District can't get in, and people inside can't get out, which makes this rumor more and more believed.

Bai Zhanshan also heard this rumor that had not yet been confirmed, but he had to believe this rumor more than others, because a secret agent of the Shanghai Station of the Intelligence Department in Hongkou District had temporarily withdrawn from Hongkou District a day ago according to Tang Cheng's explanation after he prepared clothes and water for Tang Cheng. It must be Tang Cheng who did it, Bai Zhanshan already had a judgment in his heart, but he didn't have a way to confirm his judgment now.

The third search in Hongkou District finally found nothing, and seeing that it was already dark, the Military Police Command had to admit that the murderer was likely to have left Hongkou District. Martial law in Hongkou District has been lifted little by little, but there is still a solemn appearance at the checkpoints, and anyone who enters Hongkou District, whether Japanese or not, needs to go through strict checks before they can pass through these checkpoints.

No one knew that Tang Cheng had not actually left Hongkou District, and when a large number of gendarmes and police officers searched the entire Hongkou District, he was sleeping proudly in the cellar after changing hiding places in succession. The cellar where Tang Cheng was finally hiding was only a street away from the izakaya that he had once turned into an Asura field. Whether it was the special high school or the military police headquarters, they didn't expect that Tang Cheng would play a trick with them under the lights.
