Chapter 52: Killings
If everything is so smooth, of course Shen Chen will kill from the sixth floor to the fifth floor, and everyone who gasps will not let go.
But if things are going according to people's imagination, then there is no providence.
When Shen Chen came to the door again, opened a crack, and listened to the movement outside, the noise such as scolding and screaming in pain reached his ears.
It turned out that the Zodiac Society was an organization composed of thugs, and although its methods were cruel, it was not a professional secret service and was able to capture many anti-Japanese elements.
However, in order to intimidate and solicit credit from the Japanese, the Zodiac thugs used deception and other means to kidnap the refugees from the refugee camp, kill them and dismember them in the New Asia Hotel.
Therefore, most of the heads hanging in the concession to intimidate patriots, except for those of Cai Yutu, are not the heads of anti-Japanese elements.
Shen Chen drew his dagger, held the gun in his left hand, and held the gun in his right hand. waited for the noise to enter the room before he dodged out.
The lights in the hallway were dim, and Shen Chen was moving towards the room where the thugs had entered. With the sound of the door being locked, the door next to it was opened, and a guy walked out swearing.
As soon as the door lock rang, Shen Chen had already walked diagonally against the wall, avoiding the sight of this guy's front.
As soon as this guy came out, before he could close the door, Shen Chen's dagger in his left hand stabbed out diagonally from the bottom to the top and went into this guy's throat.
It was only a moment of piercing, and Shen Chen pulled back suddenly, feeling a slight stagnation in his hand, and the sharp dagger had already severed all of the enemy's trachea vocal cords.
The guy clutched his neck and opened his mouth wide but couldn't make a sound. Surges of blood whirred out, quickly taking away the last of his strength. I didn't even see who did it, and I fell softly.
Shen Chen helped him, so that this guy would not fall to the ground like a log. Then he pushed open the door and dodged in.
The door was shut, and for a while, there was a dull noise inside. Soon, Shen Chen opened the door and dragged the corpse in the aisle.
A little accident is nothing to Shen Chen. He infiltrated the New Asia Hotel to kill a chicken dog, but he didn't see the enemy as a local chicken.
But Shen Chen also has a strong self-confidence, these guys are amateurs, he is professional. Even if he can pounce twice, he will never be his opponent.
Of course, it is most perfect if you can sneak in, kill people quietly, and then leave quietly.
Kill, kill, kill!
Shen Chen seemed to be caught in a mechanical action, but it was not boredom and numbness, but a feeling of pleasure and catharsis.
How can these beasts let them live in the world? These scoundrels, thugs, to live one more day in this world is a blasphemy against justice and justice.
Poof, poof, poof! The dagger stabbed in succession and rapidity, all in one body; Bah, Bah, Bah! The muzzle of the gun moved rapidly, one shot to the head, one to the chest, and another to the head.
Shen Chen ignored the sound of the enemy falling, and arrived at the door of the bathroom in two arrows. With the handle of the dagger in his left hand, he pushed the bathroom door open.
Two thugs were in the bathroom with axes and machetes in their hands. A mutilated corpse lay on the tiled floor, blood flowing like a small river.
Bang! A shot hit the axe-wielding guy in the head, and a blur of flesh squeezed out of the back of his head, sprayed on the wall, and flowed down in bits and pieces.
Phew, Bah! The guy with the machete threw himself forward, shot in the chest and in the head, and planted a freshly rinsed human head in the bathtub with a freshly washed blood in his hand, splashing a pool of blood.
Shen Chen turned around and left, afraid to face the innocent head. If he had done his best, it would have been possible to save this man's life.
But Shen Chen couldn't take him away, let alone let him see him. Maybe cold, maybe guilty, Shen Chen didn't dwell on it. He can only kill more thugs and avenge the innocent.
It was supposed to be the last enemy on the sixth floor who fell. He stared at the dead fish-like eyes, and there was a bloody hole in the door of his head, and the blood, scalp, and bones spurting out of the back of his head formed a strange pattern on the wall.
Shen Chen didn't have time to deal with the corpse now, and there was a sound of footsteps coming from the other end of the corridor.
Shen Chen didn't want to hide, but approached quickly with a gun to meet the footsteps over there, like a small boat going against the wind.
At this moment, he became especially calm, landing on his toes, lowering his posture and not taking a large stride, which stabilized his body and maintained the elastic space to move quickly.
Kimura, a Japanese consultant, came up from the fifth floor. He had just finished talking to Chang Yuqing about the captain Zhao Songtao being captured by the patrol room.
It can be said that Zhao Songtao's arrest made the Japanese somewhat passive. In particular, the pistols that had been worn out of the number of the guns could not be denied.
In the past, the Japanese were able to adopt a perfunctory attitude of denial to the Ministry of Industry and Bureau for conniving at and instructing the crimes committed by the Zodiac Society.
Now, of course, the same is true, but if you are caught, it will mean provoking the patrol room. The patrol house intensified the crackdown and wanted to arrest Chang Yuqing and others, which also brought a lot of trouble to the Japanese.
Moreover, because of the attack on the armed procession in the public concession, the Japanese consul general in Shanghai exerted pressure on the Ministry of Industry and the bureau to intervene in the administration of law and order in the concession.
Under pressure, the Ministry of Industry and Bureau was forced to back down, and it was agreed that Akagi Jinyuki, who had previously served as Japan's counselor in China, would be transferred to the Police Department of the Ministry of Industry Bureau as the "Deputy Director of Police of the Ministry of Industry Bureau" in the Shanghai Public Concession Police Department.
Although the British still nominally maintained the leadership of the British, the position of Special Deputy Commissioner held by General Akagi was a very high position in the police force on behalf of the Japanese occupation forces.
Therefore, the Japanese believed that the arrival of Akagi would effectively urge the police force to suppress the anti-Japanese forces in the concession in order to ensure the interests of the Japanese side and to infiltrate the public concession on behalf of the Japanese forces.
It should be said that Britain, the United States, Germany, and Japan were natural enemies in the world at that time, and the bigwigs of the Ministry of Industry and the Bureau of Industry were more aware of the threat of the Japanese military machine than the congressmen on the other side of the ocean.
Therefore, on the one hand, the Ministry of Industry had to make some concessions, and on the other hand, it did everything possible to prevent the Japanese from taking control of the concession.
The most important representative of the Japanese side in the concession will be Akagi Jinyuki, who will soon take office. The Japanese also attached great importance to this concession to the Ministry of Industry and Bureau.
But the Zodiac acted terrorist, and was caught actively. The criminals and confessions were stabbed in the newspaper office by the Ministry of Industry, and the instigation and connivance of the Japanese behind the scenes had an adverse impact on Akagi's inauguration.
It was for this reason that Kimura found Chang Yuqing and asked him to hand over the affairs of the meeting to Vice President Zhou Liuwu first, and temporarily go to Nanjing to hide from the limelight.
