There was darkness all around, and even more terrible than the darkness was the growing fear in my heart.

Niu Meibo felt numbness and pain in her neck, which made her gradually recall what had happened.

After getting off work from the Working Women's Association today, she accompanied Ms. Mao. Halfway through, she made an excuse to separate from Ms. Mao, thinking of secretly returning to the Women's Club.

She felt that in addition to the money raised in the safe, there should also be documents and other things in the safe in Ms. Mao's office. As long as she finds out, she can go back to the Japanese master and no longer pretend to be a poor girl and suffer this crime.

On her way back to the Women's Club, she brushed shoulders with a man and was hit on the neck. Then, she didn't know anything.

At that moment, Niu Meibo shook her head, feeling that it was not very heavy, but it was very ingenious, and she could knock people out at once, which was obviously done by a master.

Master? Niu Meibo immediately guessed a few organizations, but she was not very sure.

Footsteps sounded, and Niu Meibo turned her head, and her mouth made a mumping sound. Anyway, let go of your mouth first.

Whether it's cunning or admitted, since you've been caught, you have to give people a chance to speak, right?

But Niu Meibo thought wrongly, the footsteps came closer, and a big hand grabbed her hair violently, and pulled it back hard, so painful that Niu Meibo's tears fell.

It's a pity that he is wearing a black cloth cover on his head and a strip of cloth on his mouth, and Niu Meibo's expression and voice are all invisible and inaudible.

Even leaning over the chair, Niu Meibo felt that her face was covered with something like a towel again, and then the cold and biting water was poured down.

Dozens of seconds later, a feeling of suffocation or drowning filled Niu Meibo's brain.

The blood oxygen in her body is depleted very quickly, and the conditioned reflex causes the nerve center to control her to open her mouth and breathe and swallow hard, and a large amount of water is sucked into the stomach, lung lobes, and trachea and bronchi.

Niu Meibo's bound hands and feet curled violently, and she suffered unbearable pain.

Just as she was about to lose consciousness, the water stopped and the towel was removed. Niu Meibo inhaled the air greedily, accompanied by a violent cough. In just a few seconds, the towel came up again, and the water poured down again.

After experiencing two times in a row, it was better to die than to die, and she tasted indescribable pain, and Niu Meibo's whole person collapsed.

At this time, she was pulled up by her hair, and the strip of cloth on her mouth was untied.

"Spare your life!" Inside the black cloth cover, Niu Meibo's tears and snot flowed into a ball, indescribably miserable.

Dog agent, you know that you are a soft egg, a bad seed.

Shen Chen pursed his lips in disdain, and a deep voice sounded, and the interrogation began.

"Waterboarding" is very efficient, and about 80 percent of those who enjoy "waterboarding" will speak, or about 80 percent will give in, and let them achieve their goal by saying anything.

About 20 percent of the remaining people will be tortured to death, and it is clear that Niu Meibo is not one of the hard bones.

No. 76 has not yet been formally established, and this Niu Meibo is under the command of the special high division of the Japanese gendarmerie, and is responsible for reconnoitering the intelligence of the underground anti-war organizations in the concession.

At the same time, Niu Meibo also assisted in carrying out the top-secret operation of the Japanese General Staff Headquarters, that is, assisting Li Shijun, Ding Motun and other traitors in raising and establishing a spy organization controlled by the Japanese secret service.

"Shaanxi Road No. ** house, is it your stronghold? What are the other places in the public concession? ”

"There are several people in the base, and their names, ages, and physical characteristics ......"

"Liang Zhongchun was developed by you? What intelligence did he provide and what was the mission? ”

"The names, occupations, addresses, ...... of other agents you know"

"Ah, spare my life, spare my life, I've said it all, all of it, hmm......"

let Niu Meibo enjoy another "waterboarding", and Shen Chen continued the interrogation until he was sure that Niu Meibo was not lying and confessed.

The harvest was very great, not only did he figure out that Liang Zhongchun was secretly arrested by Japanese spies, and was developed into a traitor spy under severe torture and coercion; I also know a lot about the personnel and arrangements of Japanese spies in the public concession.

Plugging Niu Meibo's mouth and tying her hands and feet firmer, Shen Chen took the confession and walked out of the basement.

Speaking of which, although Niu Meibo, Liang Zhongchun and other spies were hateful and hateful, they did not pose a direct threat to Shen Chen.

The infiltration of the Japanese into the patrol house in the public concession made Shen Chen a little frightened.

According to Niu Meibo's confession, Pan Da, who once served as a detective in the patrol room and is now the chief of the Huxi Police, in addition to developing ten brothers, also bought hundreds of patrol arrests at a price of 20 to 60 yuan per month.

Bribery is not the same as control, and these patrols may not openly do things for the spy traitors, but the result of turning a blind eye is that the spy traitors can carry out criminal activities in the concession area more conveniently.

As for the patrol house in the French Concession, Qian Renlong was responsible for liaison and bribery, and used it to spy on the activities of anti-Japanese people in the French Concession, as well as the intelligence of the agents of the Central Unification and the Military Unification. Several recent assassinations by spies in the French Concession were all related to money.

Niu Meibo, a soft bone, under the enjoyment of "waterboarding", can be said to know everything, say everything, and tell everything she knows.

Zhao Youcai wants to look at the wind on the first floor, and may feel that it is not manly enough to deal with a woman. But after getting the confession and reading it carefully, he was also surprised.

"This dog spy knows a lot." Zhao Youcai stretched out his hand and tapped the name on the confession, and asked, "Special patrol, do you know?" ”

Shen Chen shook his head and said, "Song Yuan, his qualifications are not shallow, and he is about the same level as me. I want to tie him up and get more lists. ”

Zhao Youcai nodded and said, "The enemy on the bright side is easy to deal with, but the spies around him are difficult to prevent. Maybe an inconspicuous little shrimp will dare to hit your black gun when he is half a button! ”

Shen Chen sighed and said, "While people are not paying attention, dig another pit, so that no one knows about this spy's death!" ”

Let go of Niu Meibo and let her be an undercover agent, Shen Chen has thought about it. But this is also like a double-edged sword, and if you don't get it right, you will hurt yourself.

Therefore, Shen Chen felt that the safest thing was to let her disappear. When the enemy did not know what was going on, he used the information on the confession to deal a heavy blow to the enemy.

"What about Liang Zhongchun?" Zhao Youcai unconsciously said this name, showing his concern for He Xiaoyan in his heart.

Shen Chen glanced at Zhao Youcai and said, "Kill it!" After a pause, he added: "I'm going to revise Niu Meibo's confession and send it to the newspaper." Let the enemy think that this guy has defected and run away. ”

"Write Liang Zhongchun into it, let him die clearly, and let everyone know his face." Zhao Youcai suggested without thinking about it.

Shen Chen nodded and said, "Maybe we don't have to do it." Give this information to Ma Mingyu, and his Third Action Brigade should be fine with a few small shrimps, right? ”

Zhao Youcai thought for a while and said, "That's fine." Gillian is becoming more and more murderous, which is not necessarily a good thing. ”

Shen Chen lowered his eyelids and didn't say much, although he was also a little worried about Chu Jiao's psychological problems.

…………..

The next night, after Shen Chen got off work, he went directly to the car repair shop.

There were no workers in the workshop, only Chu Jiao and Zhao Youcai were waiting for Shen Chen.

During the day, Zhao Youcai had already supplied the mouth to Chu Jiao, and properly hid the rifle and explosives that Ma Mingyu had gotten.

Now, to modify the guns, Zhao Youcai took out the two spears.

These are two Type 38 carbines, also known as cavalry rifles. It was not only used for the Japanese cavalry at that time, but also for second-line troops such as engineers, artillery, baggage transport units, communications, and base garrison units of the aviation corps.

During the 77 and 813 riots, the military commanders attacked the Japanese outposts, airfields, and garrisons, and it is estimated that these two guns were captured and buried at that time.

I'm afraid Ma Mingyu didn't expect that these two guns that were casually hidden would come in handy in a big city like Shanghai. Since Chu Jiao wanted it, he tried his best to get it.

The length of the Type 38 carbine was reduced to less than one meter, and the effective firing range was reduced to five hundred meters. Despite the reduced range, in urban sniping, it was enough.

"This Japanese gun has a straight trajectory and high accuracy; The second is low recoil. Shen Chen fiddled around twice and introduced Chu Jiao, "You must know that even if there is a slight deviation when the bullet is discharged, when it reaches a target two hundred meters away, it may be one meter away." ”

"Therefore, at the moment of pulling the trigger, the arms and body should not move at all, and it is easier to meet this requirement by using the 38 style......" Chu Jiao smiled and continued.

Shen Chen looked at Chu Jiao, smiled a little weirdly, and said, "By the way, in a sense, you have also used this kind of gun." ”

"It's you, not me!" Chu Jiao rolled her eyes, took another gun, pulled the bolt, put the gun on her shoulder, and pulled the trigger, simulating a real shooting situation.

Many people think that a sniper only needs to shoot accurately. Of course, there's nothing wrong with that, but the complexity of shooting training can be surprising.

The trajectory of a firearm can cause errors at the point of impact due to rifling, gravity, and wind, so the rifle's gauge and gate can be adjusted to correct for these errors.

Snipers must conduct shooting training at different heights and distances in a variety of weather, temperature, day and night environments to help understand the performance and error of firearms. It is then amended to an acceptable range.

If you go further, it's the shooting of dynamic targets. The target's movement rate varies depending on the vehicle it is walking on, the way it runs, and the amount of preload it takes depending on the distance between the target and the sniper, and the wind speed......

So, for a top-notch sniper, including distance, wind direction, wind speed, wind deflection, light direction, azimuth, and even breathing methods when shooting are very particular.

Shen Chen was a little surprised, at this time, Chu Jiao did not show impatience, but was extremely interested, like a good student, studying seriously and humbly asking for advice.

Although she had received some of Shen Chen's teachings before, and often practiced speed and wind measurement with her fingers and eyes, she still occasionally showed impatience at that time.

But now that he has a gun in his hand, some of his floating and jumpy temperament is gone, replaced by a calm and tenacious spirit, and a smart and hard-working spirit.

I don't know if it's due to the influence of his own ideology, Shen Chen has a guess, but he is not very sure.

If she continues like this, maybe she will really grow into a good sniper. Or maybe the sniper's composure can change her murderous addiction.

"In the city, there are many buildings, as long as you can achieve accurate shooting from a distance of 200 meters, after one shot, it is very difficult for the enemy to find a sniper position in a short time." Shen Chen began to operate the lathe, but he still talked about the benefits of sniping, "By the time they judge the approximate location, you will have already retreated safely." ”

"In the city, it is not easy to find a good shooting range from 200 meters away." Chu Jiao still couldn't change the habit of loving and raising the bar with Shen Chen, but she quickly relented, and only did it occasionally, like a child playing with his temper.

Shen Chen smiled faintly, didn't care about her, and began to concentrate on work, and Chu Jiao also came up to help.

Using the lathe, the butt was first sawed down, and Shen Chen was ready to replace it with a metal folding type to reduce weight.

The barrel was then sawn in two and wedged to the wooden support so that it could be assembled seamlessly.

After the overall work was basically completed, Shen Chen carefully polished the barrel interface again to remove burrs and other debris that hindered the flight of bullets.

Without a scope, Shen Chen was not ready to find a way to install it. One is that it is difficult to obtain and requires very sophisticated machines for processing operations, and the other reason is that he cannot use the distance of two or three hundred meters.

Both guns have been modified in the same way, and the whole is divided into three parts, making it easier to carry.

"Buy two suitcases." Shen Chen compared the approximate size with his hand and said, "Make a sandwich, and then carve out a groove with cork, and install these three parts, as well as bullets." In this way, it is not noticeable and more hidden. ”

Chu Jiao nodded and said, "These jobs can be done in the basement, and I also happen to practice guns." ”

After a pause, Chu Jiao smiled from the bottom of her heart and added, "You make me feel so good, I am very obsessed with the sudden explosion after the silence, obsessed with the unstoppable speed of the bullet, and obsessed with the joy of overcoming myself after hitting the target." ”

Shen Chen smiled and said, "You summed it up very well, in the end, you are educated, I just feel happy, but I can't describe this feeling." ”

"Huh." Chu Jiao laughed twice, gently stroked the gun, and whispered as if talking to herself: "When will you be able to kill the enemy happily on the battlefield?" I'm really looking forward to it! ”

Shen Chen heard this, lowered his eyelids, and did not express any opinion.

On the isolated island of Shanghai, although you can also kill the traitors, you have to be sneaky in the end, and you can't act rashly.

Because I saw all kinds of depressing and resentful phenomena, I felt that I had done too little and had not changed anything.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Chu Jiao has such psychology and thoughts.
