However, it was even more difficult to assassinate Bai Yunfu in the heavily guarded Imperial Hotel than to ascend to the sky. The Japanese learned the lesson of the last assassination of Prince Masahito and made the entire two-kilometer radius around them the focus of defense.

In other words, not only are the agents of the military commander unable to enter the Imperial Hotel, but it is impossible for them to even get within the range of a sniper rifle.

Wu Wenkang summoned Liu Dada to the safe house, and the two discussed for a long time, but finally came to an end. This Bai Yunfu is also very cunning, he is like retracting into a turtle shell, hiding in the Imperial Hotel all day long and not coming out. Anyway, the hotel has food and drink, and there are beautiful women to accompany you, and it is not lonely at all.

Because Bai Yunfu provided valuable information to the Japanese army, the Kagezo Agency was also rewarded from the base camp. The effective intelligence gave the front-line commanders the wings of the tiger, and the Gui army was defeated one after another.

Time passed bit by bit. Wu Wenkang is like sitting on pins and needles. At this time, he regretted that if he had chosen to do it at the railway station a few days ago, the national army would not have suffered too much loss.

"It's not completely impossible to kill Bai Yunfu." Liu Da thought for a moment and said: "I have observed, every morning at five o'clock in the morning of the Imperial Hotel, someone will drive to the large vegetable market in western Shanghai to buy vegetables, about. ”

Wu Wenkang muttered while thinking about how to get the hotel's internal information. Liu Dada has been to the Imperial Hotel several times, but he only knows that this is a comprehensive hotel that integrates food, accommodation and entertainment, and is generally only used for Japanese people's own consumption, and is never open to the public.

Thinking of this, Liu Da had an idea and thought about it. He said, "You are in charge of looking for operatives, and I will go find someone to understand the internal structure of the Imperial Hotel and Bai Yunfu's accommodation room, and it is best to find a master key to enter his room." ”

......

Liu Dada's Operations Division 1 was responsible for the periphery of the Imperial Hotel. Shifts change every morning at 8 a.m. and continue until 8 p.m. The next day, he unexpectedly bumped into Akiyama at the entrance.

Akiyama Shaosa is Tadajun's personal attendant, equivalent to the life secretary of later generations, specializing in serving Tadajun's travel, food and daily life, and belongs to the people around Tadajun. Such a thing as duty definitely does not belong to Akiyama Shaosa.

"Akiyama Shaosa, why are you here?"

"Kurosawa Shaosa caught a cold today, and General Tada was in a meeting at the gendarmerie headquarters and did not go out. Therefore, with the approval of General Tada, I will replace Kurosawa Shosa. ”

"Oh, I see."

"Liu Sang, let's go, come with me into the hotel and drink two glasses of whiskey, how about it?"

"W-not very good?"

"What's so bad? Today, the Imperial Hotel is my sole responsibility. I have the right for you to cooperate with my work. Let's go! ”

Liu Dada called Wu Haitao to his side, explained like this, and followed Akiyama Shaozo into the Imperial Hotel.

The soldiers in charge of the security work were all scattered around the first floor. The gendarmes were carrying three or eight large covers, all of them with bayonets, and the bayonets more than a foot long shone dazzlingly in the sun, looking a little terrifying.

Akiyama Shaozo appeared at the Imperial Hotel, and a person who looked like a manager immediately greeted him and flattered: "Shaozuo, what do you want to drink?" ”

"Whiskey."

After a while, Akiyama Shaozo and Liu Dacheng sat on the sofa chairs in the lobby, crossed Erlang's legs, and talked and laughed. It can be seen that Akiyama Shaozo does not attach much importance to the matter of duty. In his eyes, such a stirring up is simply a superfluous move.

"I dare say that no Chinese agent dares to pull teeth out of the mouth. A one-kilometer range, heavily guarded. Even Prince Masahito did not enjoy such strict protection measures. It is a joke that a small Bai Yunfu actually enjoys a higher level of protection than the prince of the Great Japanese Empire. ”

Akiyama was not satisfied with the decision made by the higher-ups. This decision was undoubtedly made by the Shadow Agency, and the three paramilitary forces, the Gendarmerie Unit, the Secret Service Headquarters No. 76, and the Special High Division, all acted in cooperation. So it's normal for Akiyama to complain.

"Shaozuo, have you seen Bai Yunfu?"

"Nope."

"Neither did I. We are all working for a Chinese who we have never even met, and it is really not worth it. ”

"I don't know what he has three heads and six arms that makes our Shadow Captain so interested. A traitor, what's the big deal! ”

At this time, the manager of the hotel came over and asked, "Two chiefs, what else do you need to eat?" ”

Akiyama Shaoza said proudly: "No need. Did Bai Sang get up? Is his breakfast ready?"

"Ready. Restaurant on the second floor. It is estimated that Bai San and Miss Kyoko will not get up until nine o'clock. ”

"It's not like that. Why did he sleep so late? ”

Akiyama Shaoza was a little angry, and said dissatisfiedly: "Which room did he sleep in?" ”

Room 8013. Do you want our waiters to wake them up? ”

The hotel manager saw that Akiyama Shaozo was unhappy, and asked with some anxiety.

"No, I don't. I accompanied Liu Sang everywhere. ”

Akiyama Shaozo put the whiskey glass on the table, got up on the ground, and guided Liu Dacheng to the hotel elevator. Liu Dacheng couldn't help but be overjoyed.
