Chapter 120: Zhongtong in action
Xie Wencheng, who knew that the general trend was gone, finally gave up his defense, and in the unrelenting shouts of his wife, the old policeman under Tang Cheng escorted Xie Wencheng, who had a dead gray face, out of the courtyard. "Mrs. Xie, if I were you, I wouldn't be busy looking for acquaintances everywhere to rescue Xie Wencheng at this time, but should immediately consider whether to cut off all relations with Xie Wencheng immediately, because only then will your Liu family not get into trouble because of this Xie Wencheng."
Tang Cheng, who didn't want to offend the Liu family, specially reminded the other party before turning around and leaving, as for whether the other party could listen to it, it was not something he needed to worry about. After catching Xie Wencheng, the things that were already becoming clearer became clearer now. According to Xie Wencheng's confession, combined with the confessions of the five Kwantung Army intelligence officers, Zhang Jianghe immediately revised the report that was about to be sent to the Nanjing headquarters.
"Now, I'm relieved!" Zhang Jianghe's report has arranged for people to be sent all the way to Nanjing, and Zhang Jianghe, who finally let go of a matter of concern, suddenly felt that his whole person was brisk. But before Zhang Jianghe's good mood lasted, a sudden phone call made Zhang Jianghe's mood instantly change from relaxed to angry, and the office of the Central Union in Chongqing cracked an underground party stronghold in the city today.
Zhang Jianghe had already informed Luo Bingkun of the change of director of the Zhongtong office in Chongqing, and he also focused on reminding the visitor from Changsha that there was a problem. However, some people in the Chongqing underground party who were reported on the street ignored this information, and as a result, the people of the Central Unification seized the opportunity to not only crack a secret stronghold of the Chongqing underground party, but also capture alive six members of the Chongqing underground party who were holding a meeting in this secret base.
After nightfall, still in Luo Ji's backyard, Zhang Jianghe saw Luo Bingkun again. "What the hell is going on? Didn't I already warn the person from Changsha that there was something wrong with him last time? Zhang Jianghe's face was dark, but Luo Bingkun's face was also not good-looking. Zhang Jianghe's words left Luo Bingkun speechless, and he didn't know what was going on, after all, he had no way to directly contact the underground party organization in Chongqing.
So Luo Bingkun just shook his head slightly, "I don't know much about the specific situation, but I heard that the Central Union has arrested six of us." It is said that there were police officers at the scene to help maintain order, and I plan to ask the police officers I know well tomorrow, as long as they are at the scene, they will know some inside information. Luo Bingkun's intention was not to want Zhang Jianghe to be in danger because of this matter, but his words reminded Zhang Jianghe that Tang Cheng is now a policeman!
Although the investigation team is outside the Chongqing police system, their establishment is in the Chongqing police system, in other words, Tangcheng is also a policeman. "If you want to inquire about the news, I'll do it! I have my own people within the police, and I have the convenience to inquire about information. "Just like Luo Bingkun worried about Zhang Jianghe, Zhang Jianghe was also worried that Luo Bingkun would be in danger, and he was more suitable to inquire about the news than Luo Bingkun.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Jianghe left the Luo Ji Tavern, and immediately sent someone to find Tang Cheng, who was leading people to check the account books, received the news and rushed to Chongqing Station. "How much do you know about shooting during the day in the city?" As soon as the two met, Zhang Jianghe went straight to the point. Tang Cheng was shocked when he heard this, it was Zhongtong who shot in the city during the day, and Wang Bingzhang had already called to inform him of the inside situation.
"What I know is not detailed, it was Wang Bingzhang who called, and I only found out, as if it was said that the Central Union was arresting people in the city." Tang Cheng really didn't know much about the matter of Zhongtong arresting and shooting people in the city during the day, and Wang Bingzhang just said a rough idea when he called. But looking at Zhang Jianghe's expression at this moment, Tang Cheng guessed that something must have happened to the Chongqing underground party, could it be that the people of the Central Committee arrested them in the city during the day?
When Tang Cheng spoke, Zhang Jianghe had been secretly paying attention to Tang Cheng's expression, looking at Tang Cheng's expression as if he was lying, Zhang Jianghe had to sigh secretly, and said that if Tang Cheng didn't know the inside story, who else could he ask to inquire about the situation. "Uncle, Zhongtong is arresting people in the city, what does this have to do with us? Zhongtong's gang is not easy to deal with, and if you are not sure of victory, it is best not to provoke them. Tang Cheng deliberately provoked Zhang Jianghe with his words, but in fact, he was secretly reminding Zhang Jianghe not to be impatient.
Zhang Jianghe scratched his head helplessly when he heard this, "It's not that I don't deal with them, I'm just disgusted by them shooting in the street!" I heard that there were passers-by who were also injured at that time, and Zhongtong acted more and more lawlessly! Zhang Jianghe deliberately diverted the topic and tried to hide his thoughts, but Tang Cheng saw it in his eyes, but he was just secretly happy. My men said that there were still police officers at the scene to maintain order, and you asked your people to inquire and see what was going on. ”
Zhang Jianghe was in a hurry to beg for help, and without alarming more people, the only thing he could use at this moment was Tang Cheng. "Okay! I immediately called the people below to investigate, after all, our establishment is also in the police system. He had already seen Zhang Jianghe's thoughts, so Tang Cheng did not refuse, but chose to call out immediately, asking the old policemen under him to find the familiar policemen to ask for news.
"Uncle Fu, you have a wide range of people, so I'll leave this matter to you. Don't be afraid to spend money, find a few more people to ask, since the incident happened in the city, our investigation team must have a certain amount of information, otherwise our investigation team will become deaf and blind! Tang Cheng was explaining the matter in an ordered tone at the moment, and Lao Fu on the other end of the phone naturally nodded and agreed, and it was really simple to spend money to buy news.
Not to mention how Lao Fu operated, Tang Cheng accompanied Zhang Jianghe and waited in the office for less than an hour, and Lao Fu called and informed Tang Cheng of the news he had inquired about. "Uncle, the situation has been figured out." Tang Cheng, who put down the phone, turned around and looked at Zhang Jianghe, "My people found the policemen who helped maintain order during the day, according to them, it was indeed the Zhongtong people who shot and arrested people in the city during the day, and a total of no less than 10 shots were fired at that time. It is true that a passer-by was injured by a stray bullet at the scene, but the injury was not serious, and the Central Union has already made compensation. ”
Tang Cheng said a lot of things, and the second half was almost all nonsense, Zhang Jianghe was impatient in his heart, but he could only endure and not have a seizure. "At the end of the operation, six people were captured from the backyard of the shop surrounded by them, two of whom were wounded, but it is not known how they were injured." What Tang Cheng said at the moment was the point, and when he learned that six people had been arrested, two of whom were injured and did not know the severity of the injuries, Zhang Jianghe's heart was filled with grief and indignation.
The person from Changsha has a problem, which shows that the Central Committee has spread a big net in Chongqing and is ready to take action against the underground party organization in Chongqing. I had obviously reminded them, but why did such a thing happen? Zhang Jianghe, who was muttering to himself in his heart, endured his grief and anger, and in his eagerness, Zhang Jianghe couldn't deduce what was wrong. Zhang Jianghe's expression remained unchanged, but Tang Cheng still sensed something bad from him, so he didn't tell Lao Fu that Lao Fu had already found out where the six people were being held.
Lao Fu drew inferences from one another, and after receiving Tang Cheng's order, he not only immediately found the policemen who helped Zhongtong maintain order at the scene during the day, but also traced the location of Zhongtong's safe house in the city through one of the messages. Tang Cheng deliberately concealed this news and did not inform Zhang Jianghe, because Tang Cheng planned to go out in person tonight to see if he could rescue the six arrested underground parties.
Things have basically been figured out, Zhang Jianghe is self-assured that he is unable to rescue the six arrested comrades, and when Tang Cheng said goodbye and left, Zhang Jianghe was still immersed in grief and indignation. After leaving Chongqing Station, Tang Cheng immediately went home and called Heizi out, "Follow me tonight, I have something to ask you for help." Heizi, who wanted to help Tang Cheng, was overjoyed when he heard this, and followed Tang Cheng around the city to a courtyard that looked a little dilapidated.
"Keeping this courtyard and the route we'll take in a moment, I'll arrange for a few people to come here tonight, and you'll be responsible for leading the way." After pointing out the location of the cellar in the backyard to Kuroko, Tang Cheng took him out of the courtyard and walked all the way in the direction of the east of the city. Zhongtong's safe house is in the east of the city, in a dark alley, Tang Cheng and Heizi sit quietly in the shadows, and the second courtyard on the left side opposite the alley entrance is Zhongtong's safe house in the east of the city.
"You just wait here, and if you hear a gunshot, and I don't show up for a minute, you leave and go home." Before leaving the alley, Tang Cheng whispered to Heizi, and after Heizi repeatedly assured him, Tang Cheng went out of the alley without looking back. Zhongtong's safe house was just across the street, and Tang Cheng didn't believe that there were no sentry posts set up by Zhongtong here, but when he went out from the alley to observe carefully, Tang Cheng didn't find that there were sentry posts around.
"No wonder the Central Command will be looked down upon by the Intelligence Department, there is not even a sentry outside the safe house, this is not afraid of someone coming to save people!" Tang Cheng, who ran out of the alley, quickly crossed the street, and turned sideways to Tang Cheng, who was hiding in the shadows on the side of the street, and the thought that this could not be a trap flashed in his mind. Following the shadows of the street, Tang Cheng moved forward quickly, and soon appeared under the side walls of the first courtyard.
As a precaution, Tang Cheng did not choose to sneak directly into the courtyard where the Zhongtong safe house was located, but chose to enter from the courtyard next to it. It's just that Tang Cheng didn't expect that the yard adjacent to the Zhongtong safe house is also the property of the Zhongtong Chongqing Office. The utility rooms in these two courtyards are connected, in other words, there are Zhongtong people in these two courtyards.
