According to the original plan, Ma San would only stay in Shanghai for a short time, and then return to Chongqing with the things entrusted by Tang Cheng. However, Miyamoto's incident disrupted this original plan, Tang Cheng didn't seem interested in mentioning it, and Ma San, who was supposed to leave Shanghai, was naturally happy and kept silent about his departure from Shanghai. Tang Cheng, who already knew in his heart, did not restrain Ma San, ignoring Ma San with a bulging wallet, and would go out to hang out from time to time.

For the next two days, Tang Cheng stayed in the residence, secretly monitoring Hans through the cook Mary, but he didn't expect Tang Cheng to be so patient. It wasn't until after breakfast on the third day that Ma San, who was about to go out, didn't leave the residence for long before a young man who looked like a student stuffed a bulging envelope into his hand. After arriving in Shanghai, Ma San, who had been cautious, did not make a noise or chase after the young man, but immediately returned to his residence with an envelope.

"It's okay, it's information sent by the Shanghai underground party." Tang Cheng, who opened the envelope, only looked at the contents of the envelope roughly, and his expression became relaxed. Ma San, who was originally nervous, came back to his senses, and dared to love the student baby who had just stuffed something for him, but he was actually a member of the Shanghai underground party! Tang Cheng asked Xu Huanshan for information on the gang forces in the concession, Xu Huanshan did not break his promise, and it only took two days to send Tang Cheng the relevant information he needed.

Although the intelligence summary sent by Xu Huanshan is not comprehensive, the gang forces listed in the intelligence summary are all privately cooperating with Tegaoke. Tang Cheng didn't spend too much time looking at this intelligence summary, and immediately decided to take Cao Daya, who was ranked third on the list, as his first target, this guy named Cao Daya, who had helped Tegaoke round up the underground party and the people of the Shanghai Station in the concession, and more than once.

"Third brother, let's go, I'll take you out for a walk, and get some money to spend by the way." Tang Cheng's tone sounded very relaxed, but when Ma San saw Tang Cheng talking and stuffing a gun into the holster under his armpit, Ma San's expression faintly revealed a trace of nervousness. Since the last time he saw Tang Cheng shooting and killing people in the street, Ma San's attitude towards Tang Cheng has changed drastically, and when he saw Tang Cheng fiddling with the pistol, he knew that this trip was definitely not as simple as hanging out.

Ma San was born in the rivers and lakes and didn't like to fiddle with hot weapons, so Tang Cheng gave Ma San the short knives in the basement, and seeing that Tang Cheng brought a pistol, Ma San also decided to bring a short knife to defend himself. "Third brother, you don't have to bring a guy, if you encounter a patrol and inspection, then it won't be clear! If you really have a hands-on time, you can have me, and if you go out with me today, there is only one task, and that is to bring the money back. ”

Tang Cheng has a carry-on equipment bag, which will stuff a gun in the holster under the armpit in front of Ma San, but he doesn't want Ma San to know his little secret. But if Ma San carried a weapon with him, once he encountered the patrol of the concession for a raid, he might cause unnecessary trouble. So without waiting for Ma San to go back to the room to get the knife, Tang Cheng immediately spoke out to stop him, and besides, he didn't decide to do anything to this Cao Daya today.

According to the information provided by Xu Huanshan, this Cao Daya has two pawnshops and a bathroom in the concession, which is not a good climate compared to the casinos and smoke houses opened by other gang forces. But in fact, the pawnshop is very profitable, especially Cao Daya has the support of Tegaoke behind him, and he is engaged in the business of buying and selling drugs and other contraband in the black market. If you rank according to the strength of the force, this Cao Daya is nothing at all, but if you rank according to financial resources, this Cao Daya will be ranked in the forefront of the gang forces in the concession.

Tang Cheng was ready to take Ma San out after he stopped, but it was still early, Tang Cheng did not take Ma San directly to Cao Daya's trouble, but took Ma San to buy a suit first. went to the place he often went to and worked for a while, and when Ma San came out of this suit shop, the whole person was already completely new, and he looked a little bit of Shanghai Xiaokai's taste and appearance.

Compared with Tang Cheng, Ma San was a little uncomfortable wearing a suit, and Ma San, who walked out of the suit shop, had stiff hands and feet, and almost walked out of the momentum of the same hands and feet, and Tang Cheng held back a smile when he saw it.

Tang Cheng and the two wandered all the way in the concession, waiting for the place to have lunch, and then Tang Cheng took Ma San straight to one of the pawnshops under Cao Daya's name. According to the information provided by Xu Huanshan, this Cao Daya will take turns to go to two pawnshops every noon. Today is a single day, and Cao Daya will definitely go to this Cao Ji pawnshop in the French Concession at noon, and then he will stay until the afternoon before leaving the pawnshop.

"This pawnshop is what you're going to move?" Standing diagonally opposite the Cao Ji pawnshop in the French Concession, he didn't see any big difference from the Cao Ji pawnshop on the other side of the street, so Ma San immediately asked Tang Cheng in a low voice. If he just wanted to deal with such an inconspicuous-looking pawnshop, why did Tang Cheng have to put on such a dress himself? Ma San felt in his heart that Tang Cheng should have something to tell him, and he was deliberately hiding it from himself.

Tang Cheng didn't answer Ma San immediately, but chuckled, and after a few breaths, Tang Cheng finally spoke. "Third brother, don't think about it, I won't do unreliable things, you can rest assured!" Tang Cheng said that he didn't do unreliable things, but Ma San secretly rolled his eyes in his heart when he heard it, and said in his heart that if you don't do unreliable things, then it's really abnormal, could it be that the previous things in the concession were not done by others.

Tang Cheng brought Ma San here, not for this Cao Ji pawnshop, he was going to wait here for Cao Daya's appearance, as long as he locked Cao Daya with his system skills, he was not afraid of not finding the other party. About a quarter of an hour later, Cao Daya, who had a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, appeared at the door of Cao Kee's pawnshop under the escort of several of his men. Tang Cheng, who was less than 100 meters away from Cao Ji's pawnshop, saw this, and immediately locked Cao Daya with his system skills, and Tang Cheng, who had a relaxed expression, secretly said in his heart, this can be regarded as a solid heart.

Ma San saw that Tang Cheng had been staring at the people at the door of the pawnshop, but he didn't know that Tang Cheng still had the system skill to defy the sky. "Let's go, find a place to pass the time, after dark, let's act, tonight is the day when Cao Daya returns to the west." Tang Cheng's expression was relaxed, but there was a strong anger in his words, Ma San couldn't help but shudder secretly when he heard this, and secretly felt pity for this Cao Daya in his heart. According to the usual practice, Cao Daya would stay in Cao Ji's pawnshop until dinner before leaving, and seeing that it was still early, Tang Cheng took Ma San to wander elsewhere to kill time.

Tang Cheng and Ma San are both dressed as children of rich families, and there are also foreigners in the haunts, even if they are targeted by the gangsters in the concession, they dare not rashly make some outrageous moves. Tang Cheng hadn't left his residence for a few days in a row, and once he had time and opportunity to be free, he certainly couldn't miss the thought of observing the movements outside. Compared with some time ago, there are a lot fewer suspicious-looking guys in the concession, and after walking two streets in succession, Tang Cheng only found two guys who looked like plainclothes.

Tang Cheng was silent, and his eyes did not always fall on the two people, and after confirming that there was no situation around, he pulled Ma San into the shop on the street. Ma San is a person in the rivers and lakes who has followed his master since he was a child, and after getting along with Tang Cheng during this time, he also has a general understanding of Tang Cheng's behavior, and was suddenly pulled into the shop on the street by Tang Cheng, Ma San knew that there was someone or something outside the store, which made Tang Cheng temporarily interested.

So as soon as Ma Sanyi entered the store, he subconsciously turned around and looked out from the storefront window. Ma San is not Tang Cheng, so he can't see the two abnormal guys outside the store, and Tang Cheng doesn't say anything to solve Ma San's confusion in his eyes. The two suspicious people found by Tang Cheng were no different from those passers-by on the street at a glance, but if you looked closely at the hands of these two people, you could find that they had been talking silently in sign language.

Tang Cheng had never been exposed to sign language before, but when he went south to Chongqing to reorganize the veteran police investigation team, by chance, when Tang Cheng accompanied his mother to church for worship, he learned the magic of sign language from a church teacher. However, what Tang Cheng asked the old policemen to learn was not the special sign language for the deaf and mute, but a simple action warrant, which was the combat sign language used by the special forces of various countries in later generations.

Tang Cheng's first reaction was to be surprised when he suddenly noticed that the two people on the street were communicating in sign language, and only after he saw a few familiar gestures from one of them in the sign language did he become alert. Tang Cheng was not in a hurry to pick up things in the store, but the corner of his eye kept paying attention to the two people on the street outside, and when someone suddenly ran in the street outside the store, Tang Cheng's attention did not take his attention off those two people.

The street outside the shop suddenly became chaotic, some people shouted, some people scolded, and when they came out of the shop, Tang Cheng saw at a glance that the patrol of the concession was arresting the people who ran out of an alley on the side of the street. The men and women who were stopped by the patrol in the concession all looked very old, and among these eight or nine people, there were actually two students dressed as students. Ordinary people usually don't get close to the onlookers when they see patrols and arrest people, but the two suspicious people that Tang Cheng had discovered before had actually crossed the street at this time and moved behind those few concession patrols.

"Third brother, I see that something is not quite right, if there is a situation in a while, you pay attention to your back!" Finding that something was wrong, Tang Cheng unbuttoned his suit jacket so that he could easily pull out his gun, and whispered to Ma San.
