Chapter 39: The First Assassination
Zodiac Society, that's right, the Ministry of Industry Bureau has already identified this terrorist organization, and it must be the Zodiac that is being attacked. If—
Let's talk about it, from the terrorist case to other trivial matters, until the wine is dry and the dishes are empty, a few men go back to their respective homes with a little bit of alcohol.
Shen Chen returned upstairs, lay on the bed drunk, thought about it for a while, and then fell asleep.
…………
Assassination is easier said than done.
If you analyze it from each stage, it is more time-consuming and laborious to prepare in advance. Such as scouting, stepping on points, tracking, timing and so on.
It takes a lot of manpower and a long time to be able to sort out the target's work and rest rules and accurate time, and the security situation around you, so that you can choose the right place and time to carry out the action.
Moreover, the collection of intelligence is not something that can be done by one or two people, it is a comprehensive and complex process, and it should be the strength of one or a few organizations.
It's not that Chu Jiao is too demanding, but it's really beyond her reach. Even if you commit a random crime, you can't just wander around the street and kill a Japanese or traitor when you see a Japanese or traitor pulling out a gun, right?
Fortunately, Zhang Lu's whereabouts were finally inquired about, and the key was that he worked as a driver for Ji Yunqing during this time.
And Ji Yunqing's activities are very regular, a famous bigwig, naturally he doesn't have to run around and work hard, and he has his own apprentices and grandchildren.
Although Ji Yunqing became a traitor, he did not do it himself, and he introduced apprentices to do things for the Japanese.
His apprentice, Li Shiqun, later became the head of the No. 76 Wang puppet agent headquarters. His apprentice, Zhang Lu, first ran errands for the Japanese, and later became a member of the No. 76 Wang Puppet Agent Action Team.
Ji Yunqing also has a bodyguard and driver, who is his godson-in-law, the guy nicknamed "Maris Little Sibao", who is Wu Sibao, the No. 76 killer and the captain of the guard corps who will be famous in Shanghai in the future.
It's just that Wu Sibao has some things to deal with these days, so he was replaced by Zhang Lu as a driver.
When Zhao Youcai finally reconnoitred clearly, Chu Jiao decided to act.
After discussion, the two prepared to snipe Zhang Lu near Yujin Pond, and Ji Yunqing, who was in the same car, was not a good thing. Put Zhang Lu and Ji Yunqing upside down, it is estimated that only Chu Jiao will do this.
If you want to say that you can't offend a woman! While Chu Jiao wanted to kill the traitors and resist the Japanese, she still remembered Zhang Lu's struggle for seats in the theater.
There is an old saying in old Shanghai: water in the morning, water in the evening.
It refers to some local idlers who go to the teahouse to eat tea in the morning, and the tea fills the stomach and becomes a leather bag of water; In the afternoon or evening, I will be in the bath and at ease, and all the troubles of the world will be washed away, and I will become a water foreskin again.
Ji Yunqing also has this hobby. And his favorite bath is the Yujin Pond soda basin bath located on the French Concession Mansion Road (now Jinling East Road).
The equipment and utensils here are imported from Europe and the United States, including custom-made soda stoves and porcelain bathtubs and showers equipped with hot and cold tap faucets, which is a very high-end bathroom in the concession.
There were many people at the entrance of the bath, and it was afternoon, Chu Jiao and Zhao Youcai decided to stop the car on the road and assassinate.
…………
The war seems to be on the horizon, and Shanghai is still bustling, although people call it "deformed" bustling.
Paved electric rails, upright telephone poles, giant star posters, cars, rickshaws, bicycles, and clanging trams converge on the street.
Zhang Lu drove the car along the street. Ji Yunqing sat in the back, her eyes seemed to be open and closed, as if she was asleep.
The car had barely gone far onto the road when a bicycle staggered out of a lane, and the cyclist seemed to want to dodge, but he staggered and fell in front of the car.
"Damn*, where did the red guy come from?" Zhang Lu scolded and stepped on the brakes.
The person who fell on the ground snorted and seemed to be unable to get up, and Zhang Lu tilted his head out of the window and cursed loudly.
Ji Yunqing opened his eyes and frowned a little displeased. The attention of these two people was attracted, and they didn't notice that Chu Jiao on the side of the road was approaching quickly.
Zhang Lu scolded, stretched out his hand to open the car door, and wanted to go out and use his fists and kicks to solve the guy who was in the way.
Chu Jiao took two steps to the front of the car, she was wearing a women's hat with tulle to cover her face, a half-coat, and tulle gloves on her hands.
Reaching out and slamming open the front door, her right hand had already taken out a point 32 revolver with a silencer from her coat pocket, and pulled the trigger at Zhang Lu, who turned her head to look.
A woman walked up and opened the car door, Zhang Lu saw it with the peripheral vision of his eyes, and he thought that a woman waiting for the bus had seen the wrong car.
But when he turned his head, he saw a black hole pointed at him, and after two muffled sounds, he had no more thoughts, and lay on the steering wheel with his head covered in blood.
Chu Jiao drilled into the car, stretched out a gun from the front seat, and pointed at Ji Yunqing in the back.
Ji Yunqing didn't react at all, his eyes were still straight, his lips moved, and he only burst out with the words "you, you" that were not in a sentence.
Looking at Ji Yunqing's gray-haired old man's appearance, Chu Jiao hesitated and hesitated, but finally gritted her teeth and pulled the trigger.
Ji Yunqing's frightened muttering was immediately blocked by the dull sound of gunshots.
Chu Jiao shrank out of the car, put the pistol into her coat pocket, and when she took it out again, she had already taken out a blank piece of paper, threw it into the car, turned around and walked towards the alley next to her.
Zhao Youcai saw that Chu Jiao had to evacuate, and his movements were also neat, he quickly stood up, picked up the bicycle, flew up, and drove Gillian away.
I was about to get out of the dim alley, and I saw the bicycle parked next to it. Chu Jiao jumped out of the car, took off her hat, pulled her head on her forehead, took off her coat, wrapped it with her hat, and put it in the bicycle basket.
Hopping on her bike, she pedaled a few times, like a fashionable young schoolgirl, out of the alley and along the road as fast as she could.
Assassination, to be precise, should be called assassination. There is no need to make bullets fly sideways and shock the earth. Attacking it unprepared, and attacking it quickly is the essence of assassination.
Although Shen Chen came to evaluate it, the arrangement of this assassination still had some shortcomings, but in Chu Jiao's opinion, it was a quite perfect assassination.
And the success of the operation was due to the pistol with a silencer, to the fact that the terrorist assassination in Shanghai had not yet begun at this time, and to the defenselessness of Ji Yunqing and Zhang Lu......
It doesn't matter if you're poor or rich, whether you're a big guy or a little deflated, life is the same, and it's only worth a few cold bullets in front of a real killer.
It's not that because Ji Yunqing is a green gang tycoon, and Zhang Lu's skills are not bad, he will definitely spend more time and more troubles.
"Let me do it next time!" When Zhao Youcai and Chu Jiao met at the agreed place, the bicycle had been stored in Zhao Youcai's newly rented residence, and the two were riding a car to the car repair shop.
