At this time, Shen Chen, who returned upstairs, was already half-lying on the bed, but he did not fall asleep, thinking about things with his eyes wide open.

For the possible retaliation of the Zodiac Society, Shen Chen was vigilant, but he was not afraid. He was even a little excited to find a new purpose.

A group of rabble, Shen Chen's evaluation of the Zodiac Society is like this.

If it weren't for the fact that the headquarters of the Zodiac Society, the New Asia Hotel, was in Hongkou, across the Suzhou Creek from the concession, Shen Chen would have planned to kill overnight.

And so it is.

Because Chang Yuqing himself is the leader of the Green Gang, and his subordinates are all hooligans and bandits, most of the methods used are the terrifying local methods used by Shanghai hooligans since the early Republic of China.

For example, writing threatening letters, throwing grenades, kidnapping, cutting off people's heads and hanging them on telephone poles, sending people with severed fingers to intimidate, and so on.

Although these methods were cruel, they did not have much effect in practice, but aroused great indignation among the residents of Shanghai, and were severely cracked down on by the concession authorities.

By the time the 76th was founded, there would be no need for the Zodiac Society to exist in the eyes of the Japanese.

Thinking and planning, Shen Chen couldn't help but think of the newspaper, followed by the image of a familiar and unfamiliar girl.

Suddenly, he found that there was a trace of imperceptible doubt in his heart.

Scumbag? Is this a word that should be in this day and age?

Because he was familiar with the word, he ignored the person who said it at the time.

Now that I think about it, it's a bit of a trick. Is it a coincidence that the occasional self-coined word happens to be the same as the one in later generations?

Shen Chen was puzzled, couldn't help but turn over and sit up, came to the table again, and used a pen to draw and write on the paper, either consciously or unconsciously.

……………

The gray clouds are slowly moving, the sun is dim, and the weather is cold, giving people a sad and desolate feeling.

The car stopped at the mouth of the narrow alley, although it was possible to drive in, Chu Jiao didn't want to show her wealth in such a poor place, especially in front of Xie Yuelan, who was already hostile.

"I'll take a look and I'll be back." Chu Jiao got out of the car and raised the bag containing the pistol, reassuring Zhao Youcai.

Zhao Youcai nodded, rolled down the window, and advised, "Shout loudly if you have something." ”

Chu Jiao smiled disappreciatively, turned around and walked into the alley.

The newspaper office still looks like it is the same, and the gold and red billboards of the shops next to it still hang above the sidewalk.

It's the second time I've been bombed, but it's been repaired very quickly. Chu Jiao stood far away and didn't see the guards sent by the patrol room.

The door of the newspaper hall opened, and Xie Yuefan's brother and sister walked out, still arguing as they walked.

In front of the door, Xie Yuefan stopped, his attitude seemed to be very intense, and he waved his arms very much.

But Xie Yuelan did not show weakness and was arguing with her brother.

Xie Yuefan left angrily, but he still left two bodyguards and told the bodyguards.

The family affection between brothers and sisters, no matter how fierce the quarrel is, still cannot be erased.

Chu Jiao walked out from behind the telephone pole, smiled wryly and sighed, and turned to leave.

It's just that she cares, but in fact, she can't do anything in the face of the stubborn Xie Yuelan.

What's more, the newspaper is indeed promoting anti-Japanese propaganda, and she doesn't like Yin Zhihong. But he's doing the right thing, which is really unclear.

Of course, the thugs were killed and arrested, which has been published in today's newspapers, and the origin of the thugs has also been revealed. I am afraid that this is the instruction of the Ministry of Industry and the Bureau, and it is a warning to the Zodiac Society.

That little patrol is pretty powerful! Chu Jiao thought as she walked back to the car.

Just a quick glance, it is really a little difficult to clearly recall that public face.

But Chu Jiao put aside the heroic little patrol in a blink of an eye, and instead thought about tonight's actions.

That's right, she has a plan, and she's going to put it into action.

Although this plan would not be flattering if Shen Chen was to evaluate it, Chu Jiao felt that it was very thorough, who made her a master of thought!

…………

At the beginning of the lanterns, a figure had already circled around the Chu family twice. It was none other than Shen Chen, who was suspicious.

Shen Chen was familiar with the structure of the western-style building, the garden, and even the courtyard of the house, although he lived here at the time, and it was not his current body that lived here for a few days.

After carefully observing the room with lights inside, Shen Chen leaned against the wall and walked around the small garden, jumped up, grabbed the wall, and turned over neatly.

Avoiding the servants and the nurses, this was not a difficult task for Shen Chen, he sneaked into the western-style building and came to Chu Jiao's room with ease.

Of course, the door lock can't stop him, and his lockpicking tools have been added and improved over the years. In just a few seconds, Shen Chen was already in the house.

The familiar smell has changed, and many dolls are gone.

Shen Chen's eyes adjusted to the darkness, and he took out a cloth-covered flashlight and searched carefully in the room.

As soon as he picked up the newspaper that had been cut out of the skylight, Shen Chen's memory was amazing, and he immediately knew the cut report on the two sheets he had read.

This guy, why does he care about killing?

Shen Chen frowned slightly, feeling strange in his heart, and continued to search carefully. Subsequently, he found several dolls of paper in the wastebasket.

Under the faint light of the flashlight, Shen Chen opened the paper ball, and at a glance, his brows furrowed into pimples.

The painting was messy and not right, but Shen Chen still recognized that it was a silencer.

If you draw it correctly, it should be very professional.

I don't know if it was designed and manufactured by Chu Jiao, although there is the knowledge and memory left by Shen Chen, but it is vague and incomplete.

Changed the painting, threw it away, Shen Chen could even imagine the girl meditating on the lamp, and then being extremely angry.

Could it be - Shen Chen turned off the flashlight, put himself in the dark, sat quietly in the chair and began to think for a long time.

……………

At the beginning of the lanterns, Chu Jiao parked the car in a dark and secluded corner, got out of the car with Zhao Youcai, and pulled out two short iron rods wrapped in cloth from under the back seat.

This is a "cross-border road construction" area, a place where lawless gangsters are rampant, and the social order is particularly chaotic.

The so-called cross-border road construction is a road forcibly built by the concession authorities outside the concession area. The security of the road is managed by the patrol office of the Ministry of Industry and Bureau, and the security on both sides of the road is managed by the Chinese police, which actually creates a state of neglect.

If a criminal commits a crime on the road, as long as he escapes into the alley by the roadside, the patrol has no right to arrest him; On the other hand, if a crime is committed on both sides of the road, as long as it runs on the road, the Chinese police have no choice but to stare dryly.

"Take this and put it on your face for a while."

Zhao Youcai took it and took a look, it seemed to be a child's toy, his one was the second senior brother, and Chu Jiao's one seemed to be Sun Wukong.

"You don't have to do it, I'll do it." Zhao Youcai's injuries have healed, and with his body and mastery of national arts, he feels quite sure.
