Chapter 855: Waiting for a Net (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Ning Zhiheng said to Liu Yong again: "You go and inquire about the owner of the newsstand, see if it is an old merchant here, and when did you start selling newspapers here." β
Liu Yong also nodded and took the order, left quickly, spent some money, quickly found out, hurried back, and reported to Ning Zhiheng: "The owner of this newsstand stall is an old resident here, who has lived here for decades, and has generally set up a newsstand at this street corner for more than ten years. β
Ning Zhiheng nodded, it seems that the newsstand owner has no problem, Wei San is just to buy newspapers.
Ning Zhiheng instructed Zhao Jiang again: "Let's go, let's go inside and have a look!" β
Zhao Jiang and several guards were wrapped in white cloth on their heads, dressed in short clothes, and with cloth shoes under their feet, all dressed as standard Sichuan people.
But Ning Zhiheng's temperament is too outstanding, no matter how he dresses, it is impossible to completely hide it, so he wears an ordinary suit and a pair of glasses, looking like a company employee.
Since Chongqing became the capital, the economy has developed rapidly, and all kinds of companies and trading houses have been opened, and employees dressed like Ning Zhiheng are everywhere, but they are not conspicuous.
Ning Zhiheng stepped into this street, Zhao Jiang and the others behind him distanced themselves from him, and in response to his safety, Ning Zhiheng casually blended into the flow of people, slowly walking forward, and at the same time secretly observing the situation around him, but they walked from the street to the end of the street, and they didn't find anything.
Ning Zhiheng knew that the search process could not be so smooth, so he came to a teahouse in the middle of the street, chose a location facing the street, and asked for a pot of tea.
Zhao Jiang and the others didn't dare to leave Ning Zhiheng too far, so they also found a table in the teahouse and waited nearby.
Ning Zhiheng and the others stayed on this street until it was dark, and they didn't wait for Wei San to appear, so they had no choice but to close the team.
Zhao Jiang asked softly on the side: "Seat, it's been a long time, Wei San hasn't shown up, this Chongqing is so big, you can hide everywhere, could it be that Wei San just passed by here and didn't stay here?" β
Ning Zhiheng nodded: "It's very likely, but since there are no other clues, the neighborhood near here is the area we focus on, this silver fox is too important, even if it takes more effort, as long as we catch her, it will be worth it, tomorrow we will expand the scope of the search, and we will wait in the vicinity until we have something to gain!" β
Speaking of this, Ning Zhiheng seemed to suddenly remember something, and he hurriedly ordered: "Go and call Gan Huozi over, and I'll ask him in detail." β
Ning Zhiheng motioned to his subordinates to find Gan Huozi again, Gan Huozi had been cooperating with the action team members to find Wei San, and had already changed his outfit, and when he heard Ning Zhiheng's call, he hurriedly ran over.
Ning Zhiheng looked at him, thought for a moment, and asked, "Think about it carefully, you saw Wei San's specific situation at that time,"
"There was nothing special about it," he recalled, "so I watched him come all the way, bought a few newspapers at the newsstand, and then walked on. β
"How many newspapers?" Ning Zhiheng raised his eyebrows, as if he remembered something, "Did you buy a lot of copies?" β
Gan Huozi was stunned for a moment, thought about it carefully, and said again: "I see that the stall owner picked up several newspapers for him, and he rolled them up in a ball, and he did buy a lot." β
Ning Zhiheng's mind suddenly flashed with a flash of inspiration, it was through himself that Inoue Takahiko published an advertisement for Yuanze Trading in the Shudu Daily, sending a warning signal to the silver fox, so that the silver fox was alert and escaped from his hands again.
From this situation, it can be judged that several intelligence teams under the command of Silver Fox are likely to report to Silver Fox in this way.
That is to say, the silver fox needs to read the newspaper every day, and it is not limited to the Shudu Daily.
Because the silver fox has been exposed, and now the wind is tight, it must be inconvenient to travel these days, and Wei San, as the assistant of the silver fox, it is only natural for him to buy a few newspapers for her, why didn't he think of this before? What a carelessness!
Ning Zhiheng immediately ordered Liu Yong: "Find out all the coachmen who know Wei San tomorrow and continue to cooperate with us in the search." β
"Yes!"
"You go and feel the situation again, take this place as the center, check all the newsstands and newsstands in the nearby neighborhood, and we will come back tomorrow, and we will set up surveillance at every point, spread the net, and see if this big fish will appear."
In Chongqing, there are three channels for ordinary people to buy newspapers, one is the newsstand, which requires a fixed faΓ§ade and room, specially used to sell newspapers, by the way to operate some cigarettes and groceries, newspaper sellers do business in it, this kind of newsstand investment is large, can not be moved, but there is a little advantage, that is, not afraid of wind and rain, newspaper sellers do not have to run around too hard.
One is the newsstand, this kind of stall is more casual, the cost is very low, but a cart, a wooden board can be opened, the location of the newspaper is more casual, in short, where is convenient to go, with the change of the flow of people, the newspaper seller can be flexible, but the most afraid of rain and wind, a wind and rain, all the newspapers are wasted, how many days of hard work will be in vain.
There is also a kind of newsboys who sell everywhere, these are half-grown children, take out a certain number of newspapers from the newspaper hall, sell them along the street, make more money if they sell well, and send them back to the museum if they can't sell them, how much can earn a day's livelihood, and it is even harder, but these children have limited business ability, and generally only take a small number of newspapers, and the newspaper type is relatively simple, and generally only have time to receive a newspaper from a newspaper store, which does not meet Wei San's conditions for buying a variety of newspapers, so Ning Zhiheng did not consider it.
In this case, the number of remaining newsstands and newsstands should not be large, and it is not difficult to monitor them.
In the early morning of the next day, Chongqing woke up from its silence again, and people began their daily work, and there were more and more people on the streets, restaurants, shops, teahouses, newsstands, etc., all began to open.
Tomoako Matsuno, who goes by the pseudonym Wei San, walked briskly down the street, and soon entered the Skylantern Fort neighborhood and glanced at the newsstand at the corner of the street, but this time he did not stop, but continued to enter the street.
After walking a distance, he turned to the left, and after walking a few steps to a newsstand, he would buy several fixed newspapers for Chiemi Tanigawa every day, but Matsuno was extremely cautious and never bought newspapers in a fixed place, in case anyone would have an impression of him.
So he didn't continue to buy at the newsstand at the corner of the street, but today he went to the newsstand in the street, asked for a few newspapers, and by the way, asked for a pack of cigarettes, paid the money and turned around and walked away quickly.
