Chapter 243: Initiation
Zhang Sichang didn't know that Lu Chengzhou at this time had returned to No. 24 Road, just around the corner not far from the opposite side, quietly observing the situation of the Daxing Daily Grocery Store.
Seeing Zhang Sichang follow, Lu Chengzhou immediately turned around and pushed out the bicycle hidden behind.
The direction in which Lu Chengzhou left was the opposite direction of Zhang Sichang following Ma Wenxiang.
Riding a bicycle, Lu Chengzhou was in a very happy mood.
Since Zhang Sichang sent Zhang Guanglin out, the "Sunbreaker Plan" has entered a state of preparation.
Zhang Sichang followed Ma Wenxiang, indicating that the "Sunbreaker Plan" was officially launched.
Ma Wenxiang was defenseless against Zhang Sichang, because his task was to attract Zhang Sichang.
Before the Salvation Association moved into No. 22 South Comber Road, Ma Wenxiang already knew Zhang Sichang's identity.
This time, Ma Wenxiang was entrusted by the Haigu Municipal Party Committee to show up at the Daxing Grocery Store on No. 24 Road.
If Zhang Sichang didn't keep up, his mission failed.
Ma Wenxiang's place of residence is not far from No. 24 Road, at No. 7 Songshan Lane, south of Edinburgh Road.
It's a small inn that doesn't even have a name, just a sign hanging outside that says "accommodation".
Zhang Sichang is very strange, Ma Wenxiang lives in such a small hotel, what does he want to buy kerosene for?
Moreover, as soon as you buy it, it is a big bucket, which is enough for a family for a year.
Following outside the small hotel, Zhang Sichang did not go in again, but wrote down the house number, turned around and went back.
Not long after Zhang Sichang left, Ma Wenxiang also walked out.
It's just that he didn't carry anything on his hands.
He called a rickshaw at the door and left quickly.
Not long after, a young man, carrying a suitcase, looked at the door and called for a rickshaw.
After Zhang Sichang returned to the Daxing grocery store, he picked up the phone on the counter, and his hands were a little shaky.
"Mr. Feng, I'm Zhang Sichang from Daxing Grocery Store, I have a new batch of wine from the store, do you want to try it?" Zhang Sichang tried his best to calm his tone.
This is the code of agreement, and the wine is red in color, which represents the CCP.
If Zhang Sichang said that a batch of liquor was obtained, it means that he had found information about the military commander.
"Is it a long year?" Ryoichi Nakayama said slowly.
Zhang Sichang actually discovered the intelligence of the CCP, and it seems that his intelligence station still has some effect.
"Long, quite long." Zhang Sichang said excitedly.
What Ryoichi Nakayama meant was to ask him if the CCP was important and whether his rank was high.
Hearing Zhang Sichang's words, Ryoichi Nakayama immediately called Toyoichi Takahashi and asked him to go to the Daxing grocery store.
Toyoichi Takahashi heard that Zhang Sichang had discovered clues about the CCP, and soon went to the Daxing grocery store.
"Have you reported this matter to Lu Chengzhou?" After listening to Zhang Sichang's report, Toyoi Takahashi said in a deep voice.
"I haven't contacted the road director yet." If Zhang Sichang wanted to make meritorious contributions, of course, he had to report directly to the Japanese.
If he reported to Lu Chengzhou first, wouldn't it be a credit to the intelligence room?
Moreover, Lu Chengzhou often patrolled the streets and could not be contacted in time.
"Are you sure it's Ma Wenxiang?" Toyoichi Takahashi said with a deep groan.
"Mr. Feng, I have dealt with Ma Wenxiang many times, and of course I know him. He was in a small hotel at 7 Pine Hill Lane, Edinburgh Road. Zhang Sichang said excitedly.
"Let's go, let's see." Toyoichi Takahashi said.
There is no doubt that Ma Wenxiang is a CCP.
It's just that Ma Wenxiang appeared in the small hotel, which made Toyoichi Takahashi a little suspicious.
Ma Wenxiang, as a professor at the former Law Business School and a major member of the Self-Defense Association, how could he live in a small hotel?
Toyoichi Takahashi suddenly thought that Ma Wenxiang was a communist, and he lived in a small hotel for only one reason, to connect with people.
The members of the Self-Defense Association are very complicated, and the gendarmerie detachment has always wanted to send people to infiltrate, which is Miao Guangyuan's main task at present.
If Ma Wenxiang had not acted alone, the gendarmerie detachment would not have dared to touch him.
After all, Ma Wenxiang is a celebrity, even if he is a communist, he can't arrest him openly.
The British Concession is not anti-communist, as long as Ma Wenxiang does not violate the laws of the British Concession, he can move freely, and he can even be protected by patrols.
"This is the hotel." Zhang Sichang took Toyoichi Takahashi to Matsuyama and pointed to the nameless hotel.
"You go and find out." Toyoichi Takahashi said to the two subordinates beside him.
However, his subordinates quickly reported that Ma Wenxiang had left.
When Zhang Sichang heard this, he couldn't believe his ears, why did he leave when he saw Ma Wenxiang enter this hotel?
He went in personally, spent a dollar, and bought the news from the guy at the counter.
Ma Wenxiang did leave, carrying a kerosene drum when he went in, and came out empty-handed.
"Squad Leader Takahashi, I'm sorry." Zhang Sichang said ashamedly.
"Let's go back." Toyoichi Takahashi didn't say anything, after all, Ma Wenxiang did come to the hotel, but he just handed over the gasoline to someone else.
"Ma Wenxiang said today that he still wants to buy two barrels of kerosene, but I only have one barrel in the store, and I asked him to come and get it in the afternoon." Zhang Sichang suddenly thought.
"Two more barrels of kerosene?" Takahashi Yuichi frowned, buying so much kerosene is definitely not for his own use.
For ordinary families, it is enough to buy a bottle of gasoline, but it is not enough for Ma Wenxiang to buy a barrel, it must be used for other purposes.
"Hurry back to the store, prepare kerosene immediately, and wait for Ma Wenxiang to arrive at any time." Toyoichi Takahashi said decisively.
After returning to the Daiko Grocery Store, Toyoichi Takahashi left two of his men behind.
This time, he wanted to arrest Ma Wenxiang in the Daxing grocery store.
This kind of Communist Party sent to the door, if it is spared, is a crime against the emperor.
"Yes." Zhang Sichang said respectfully.
Lu Chengzhou went to the gendarmerie detachment in the afternoon, and only then did he "know" that Ma Wenxiang had arrived at the Daxing grocery store.
"Squad leader Takahashi, over there in the Daxing grocery store, you can hand it over to the intelligence room, and you don't need to bother with the special high class." Lu Chengzhou immediately found Toyoichi Takahashi.
"In this case, Captain Zhongshan has been handed over to the special high class, and the intelligence room only needs to cooperate." Toyoichi Takahashi said impatiently.
"Squad leader Takahashi, don't you think it's normal for Ma Wenxiang to suddenly appear in the Daxing grocery store?" Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
"As long as Ma Wenxiang is caught, everything will be normal." Takahashi Toyoichi thought that Lu Chengzhou wanted to fight for merit, and said disapprovingly.
"What if you can't catch Ma Wenxiang?" Lu Chengzhou asked rhetorically.
"Lusang, you are alarmist." Toyoichi Takahashi said dissatisfied.
In the past, he generally called "Lu Jun", which was a very polite title.
However, the words of "Lu Sang" are much more estranged.
"I don't think the whole thing is normal, Ma Wenxiang just bought kerosene, and Zhang Sichang followed him to the hotel. As soon as Zhang Sichang turned around, Ma Wenxiang left, and the kerosene was gone. Is this a coincidence? Or was it an accident? Lu Chengzhou said with a straight face.
"What do you mean by that?" Takahashi Toyoi was stunned, he suddenly felt that Lu Chengzhou's words were not arbitrary.
The whole thing, indeed, is eccentric.
As a professor, Ma Wenxiang went to buy kerosene in person, which was not normal.
"The National Salvation Association used to run an official business here, and at that time, Zhang Sichang lived here and had contact with Ma Wenxiang all day long." Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Toyoichi Takahashi finally understood that Lu Chengzhou did have something to say.
"I can't talk nonsense without evidence. After all, he is the deputy director of the first room, and I am responsible for him. Lu Chengzhou shook his head and said solemnly.
However, Lu Chengzhou's words have taken root in Takahashi's heart.
After Lu Chengzhou left, he called Kaida Shinichiro and asked him to secretly spy on Zhang Sichang for the past few days.
"You go get a camera, and if you notice that he's behaving abnormally, take a picture of it." Toyoichi Takahashi admonished.
Lu Chengzhou's words reminded him that Zhang Sichang was a person from the Nozaki Mansion, and he had served the Japanese secret service for many years.
If he really has a problem, it is useless to speculate alone, there must be evidence.
There were two more Japanese gendarmes in the Daxing Japanese grocery store, which made Zhang Sichang very uncomfortable.
Originally, he only needed to lie down and rest in the back room.
But when the Japanese military police came, the room was occupied by them.
In order to entertain them, they have to be served with good wine and food.
Zhang Sichang is very annoyed, he can't leave, if Ma Wenxiang is here and he is not in the store, then after catching Ma Wenxiang, who is it?
"Officer Lu, you're here." Zhang Sichang saw Lu Chengzhou park his bicycle on the side of the road and immediately greeted him.
"Didn't rest in there today?" Lu Chengzhou saw Zhang Sichang and asked pretending not to know.
"There are two guests inside." Zhang Sichang led Lu Chengzhou into the grocery store and said softly.
"What's going on?" Lu Chengzhou asked.
"In the morning, Ma Wenxiang came, and I was the only one in the store at that time, so he slipped away. He may also come to buy kerosene, Takahashi Toyoichi left two people, as long as Ma Wenxiang came again, he would immediately send it to Changlongsheng. Zhang Sichang quickly introduced.
"You, since you slipped away, don't report it. If you don't catch Ma Wenxiang, I'll see how you explain it. Lu Chengzhou said coldly.
"At that time, I just wanted to arrest people, and I didn't think about it so much." Zhang Sichang was stunned, he only thought that he could be a director like Lu Chengzhou.
"Since this matter has already alarmed them, I won't worry about it." Lu Chengzhou sighed, turned around and left.
"Road ......"
Zhang Sichang was very anxious when he saw Lu Chengzhou leaving.
He also felt that he was too anxious about this matter.
Until dark, Ma Wenxiang did not come again, Zhang Sichang could not wait any longer, so he had to order Zhang Guanglin to close the door.
In the evening, Zhang Sichang returned home, thinking about it, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and today's incident seemed to be wrong.
But what was wrong, he couldn't say.
Zhang Sichang thought about it all night and didn't sleep well all night.
When I woke up the next day, I was listless, and after going out, I hired a rickshaw and went to the Daxing grocery store.
"Boss Zhang."
Just out of Comber South Road, when he was about to turn a corner, Zhang Sichang's rickshaw was suddenly stopped.
"Mr. Ma......" Zhang Sichang heard Ma Wenxiang's voice, and suddenly seemed to be doping, and the whole person immediately sobered up.
