Chapter 1: Beating
"Xiao Wu, you come to me by car immediately, I have something to look for you." After breakfast, Tang Cheng, who was practicing boxing in the yard, was interrupted by the ringing of the phone in the living room. The caller was made by Zhang Jianghe, who had already returned to the Nanjing headquarters of the intelligence department, and Zhang Jianghe, who had already returned to the Nanjing headquarters for three days, did not immediately receive the transfer order to Chongqing, and he only made a written report on his trip to Shanghai in accordance with the order of the division chief in the past few days.
Early in the morning, he called Tang Cheng, who was at home, and Zhang Jianghe was just for the purpose of reporting, and he didn't know if it was appropriate to mention Hans in his report. Zhang Jianghe had already guessed Hans's identity in his heart, he was not Bai Zhanshan, and he would really think that Hans was just a foreign businessman with some connections in Shanghai. Tang Cheng, who received the call, did not delay much, and after taking a simple shower and changing clothes, Tang Cheng rushed to Zhang Jianghe's office.
After leaving Nanjing for a few months, the Nanjing headquarters of the Intelligence Department already had a bit of a smell of being a person, and almost all of the people in Tang Cheng's original investigation team were sent to other places. With the entry and exit slip personally signed by the director, Tang Cheng entered the Nanjing headquarters of the Intelligence Department very smoothly, but when he found Zhang Jianghe, he found that Zhang Jianghe's original office had been given to others, and now he was staying in the slightly darkened cubicle in the far back of the first floor.
"Uncle, they just let you stay here?" As soon as he entered the door, he smelled a musty smell, Tang Cheng had to reach out to cover his mouth and nose, and looked at Zhang Jianghe's face with a disgusted expression. "You guys from the Operations Section are too fucked up, aren't they! Anyway, you were also an old man in the Operations Department before, why did you come back after only a few months of going out, and these people seem to have changed their appearance? What are they trying to do? ”
Tang Cheng rubbed Zhang Jianghe vigorously, and his words obviously had the intention of fanning the flames, but Zhang Jianghe only shook his head again and again when he heard the words. "I said you kid, stop it, okay! This place is my own request, it is quiet, just right for writing reports. It is better to have fewer people, and it is also necessary to save people from always coming to me to talk about it, and the headquarters is unstable for a while, and it is the best policy to do your own things behind closed doors. ”
"That's a nice thing to say, I think your old man is disliked by others!" Zhang Jianghe's explanation made Tang Cheng pout. "And you say that closing the door is the best policy, and if that's the case, why did you call me here? Aren't you afraid that I'll get into more trouble if I come to you? As far as the careful thinking of those people in your operations department, don't tell me, you old people can't see it. ”
Tang Cheng is not a person from the intelligence department, so he doesn't need to be as taboo as Zhang Jianghe, and besides, this is also talking behind closed doors, as long as Zhang Jianghe doesn't spread the word, no one else will know what Tang Cheng said just now. Before Tang Cheng left Nanjing for Shanghai, he went to the director in private, and Tang Cheng used the assassination of Kenichi Yamamoto as a bargaining chip to persuade the director to agree to transfer himself and Zhang Jianghe to Chongqing to take up their posts.
Originally, according to the agreement between Tang Cheng and the director, after they returned to Nanjing from Shanghai, they should immediately get the transfer order to Chongqing. However, the fact is that the Nanjing Headquarters of the Intelligence Department has not issued an order for a long time, and Tang Cheng wanted to ask to see the director, but he was told that the director had not returned from his outing, and that he had already resigned from the Nanjing police department, and now he could only temporarily rest at home. In short, Tang Cheng had already guessed that the elder might regret it, and he planned to delay it until he took the initiative to give in.
If it weren't for Zhang Jianghe's call to call him here, Tang Cheng wouldn't have planned to step into the headquarters of the Intelligence Department for another half step, and he was now thinking of getting the transfer order to Chongqing. Tang Cheng's mood fluctuated obviously and he didn't want to stay here longer, so Zhang Jianghe had no choice but to inform Tang Cheng whether he mentioned Hans in the report. When Tang Cheng heard this, he said that it didn't matter, Hans's scope of activities was basically in Shanghai, and no matter how long the intelligence department's hand was, it would not be difficult for Hans.
"It doesn't matter, you can write if you want! I'll tell you the truth, I've actually been doubting Hans's true identity, and although Hans didn't tell me clearly, I can see something unusual in his usual movements. He is definitely not as simple as an ordinary businessman, there are many foreigners like him in the Shanghai Concession, these people are honest people on the surface, but in fact there are many of them, all of whom work for the intelligence services of some European countries. ”
"Although Hans is an American, he is not a pure American, and there are many German-Americans in the United States, and there are not a few people like Hans who come to China." Tang Cheng deliberately bit the words on the word German, Zhang Jianghe's eyes lit up when he heard this, and when he turned his head to look at Tang Cheng, the latter's face had already hidden the snickering expression, and was replaced by a peaceful face. The hints in Tang Cheng's words were not very obvious, he just used words to deliberately guide Zhang Jianghe, as for what Zhang Jianghe thought, Tang Cheng would not care.
Tang Cheng was patient, and accompanied Zhang Jianghe to sort out the report in that compartment all morning, until it was time for lunch, and then followed Zhang Jianghe out of the building. "Yo, isn't this Captain Zhang!" Tang Cheng and the two of them came out of the building, and they bumped into a group of people, led by the guy with a ruddy face and combing his back, as if he suddenly saw some rare object, and opened his arms to stop Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe.
"I heard that Captain Zhang's trip to Shanghai did not go well, and I said before that it was all rumors, but now it seems that those rumors are true. Tsk, this is missing an arm, and Captain Zhang's kung fu will be wasted! What a pity! The big back had a gloating face, and he teased Zhang Jianghe about Zhang Jianghe's missing arm, but those behind him didn't dare to open their mouths to cater to it.
Zhang Jianghe hadn't said anything yet, but Tang Cheng, who was standing behind him, was the first to shout and scold, "Hey, who's crotch is not closed properly, and you are exposed!" "Tang Cheng was already a little angry by the delay of several days, if it weren't for Zhang Jianghe's suppression, maybe Tang Cheng would have come to the headquarters of the Intelligence Department to make trouble. This big back that suddenly appeared, as soon as he came up, he talked about Zhang Jianghe and looking for fun, where could Tang Cheng endure it.
Tang Cheng's sudden attack made this big back head flutter for a moment, and after reacting later, he immediately stretched out his hand and pointed at Tang Cheng, sneering with a hideous face. "Boy, don't think that this cripple can protect you, now kneel here and fan yourself until I'm satisfied, otherwise I'll let you know Lao Tzu's methods..."
"Bang!" Without waiting for the big back head to let out a miserable scream, Tang Cheng kicked the big back head again and kicked it straight down the steps at the entrance of the building. "Grandson, my name is Tang Cheng, you can also call me Tang Wuye! Next time you look for someone to set up a banner, look for someone who can't mess with you, but don't look for you again. Clean up waste like you, sir, I will let you have one hand and one leg, in a word, as long as you dare to die here, I dare to help dig a pit and bury you! ”
Tang Cheng, who walked down the steps slowly, squatted in front of the big back with a smile, ignoring the people around him, and stretched out his hand to slap the big back head in the face several times one after another. It wasn't until Zhang Jianghe also came down from the steps that Tang Cheng stopped and stood up, turned around and looked around at the people on the steps, Tang Cheng said loudly. "Seeing that everyone is a familiar face, you should also know who I am, it is normal for people to step low and climb high, but you also have to see who you want to step on! Before stepping on someone, you must polish your eyes first, in case you step on a **, then the matter will be a big deal. ”
Tang Cheng's words obviously meant a warning, although this was the Nanjing headquarters of the Intelligence Department, but before Tang Cheng went to Shanghai, he was able to enter and leave here freely. There are still few people in the Nanjing headquarters of the Intelligence Department who don't know Tang Cheng, and there are even some people who privately say that Tang Cheng has a good relationship with the director. "You just hit someone, why do you have to say those things later? Beware of getting into trouble! ”
Tang Cheng and the two left the courtyard of the headquarters of the Intelligence Department, Zhang Jianghe opened his mouth to speak, Tang Cheng silently rolled his eyes in his heart when he heard this, and said in his heart, Why didn't you say this old man just now? Isn't it too late now? The Intelligence Department prohibits internal fighting, especially private fights, and punishes them severely, but Tang Cheng is not a member of the Intelligence Department, and the incident that happened in the headquarters compound of the Intelligence Department was quickly reported to the Director's Office.
"This kid is a grandson monkey, born with a disobedient face, if it weren't for his father's martyrdom, I would have put this kid into the army a long time ago!" The director who learned of this frowned, the people below reported the matter to him, he naturally understood what the people below meant, but he had other thoughts about Tang Cheng, and holding Tang Cheng for such a trivial matter was obviously a little contrary to his idea.
After accompanying Zhang Jianghe to lunch outside, Tang Cheng looked like he had nothing to do, and accompanied Zhang Jianghe back to the building to continue sorting out the report. It's just that Tang Cheng beat people at the door of the intelligence department building, and after being reported to the director's office, it disappeared like a stone in the sea. "What's going on? So I said, no one will come to embarrass me about this! Sitting in Zhangjiang and Tang Cheng opposite, he was looking triumphant at the moment, but in fact, he was more vigilant in his heart.
No matter how Zhang Jianghe says, he is also an old man of the Intelligence Department, even if he is missing an arm, it is not something that anyone can humiliate, and this incident also happened at the door of the Intelligence Department building. At this moment, Tang Cheng had a smug smile on his face, but in fact, he had been secretly pondering the inside story in his heart, and he guessed whether this would be the director's temptation.
