On the street, a casual place?

Xi Chen's words, listening to Cao Wenhan and Fang Siyu's ears, how can they still feel very casual.

What is a place on the street, not a casual place?

"What do you say?" Cao Wenhan asked Xi Chen.

Xi Chen said: "Now I don't know, let's go and see." ”

"Tomorrow." Fang Siyu said, it is already very late, so it will be very inconvenient to go at this time, and it is still outside at night, it is easy to be investigated, and it is better to be during the day tomorrow.

Xi Chen felt that he also said: "That's okay, let's have a good rest tonight, and we'll go over early tomorrow morning, that person should also hide the experimental data in the morning." ”

Judging from the timeline that Liu Yuhang told Xi Chen, it may be morning, so going in the morning is more in line with Xi Chen's investigation.

Resting at night, Chi Rong was not informed of this matter, because it was impossible for Chi Rong to follow them over.

Early the next morning, Xi Chen and the others went over and came to the government building.

The government building is the starting point, and the place where the person lives is the end.

"Let's go." Xi Chen said.

They start at the starting point and then go to the end, and they walk very slowly, watching as they go.

But none of them spoke, none of them spoke, they were walking.

After walking to the place, Xi Chen asked Cao Wenhan and Fang Siyu, "What do you think?" ”

Both of them shook their heads, they had no idea, and they didn't find anything unusual along the way.

Seeing that everyone had no ideas, Xi Chen said, "Keep walking." ”

This time, Xi Chen walked from this person's residence to the government building.

They walked as fast as they could, and after they reached the government building, Xi Chen asked, "What do you think?" ”

"Nope." Cao Wenhan said.

Fang Siyu frowned and said, "Me didn't either." ”

"Keep walking." Xi Chen said.

In fact, the three of them, even if they walk for a day, will not get tired.

It's just a little impatient, Cao Wenhan is a little impatient.

When he left the first two times, Cao Wenhan could still patiently observe, but the third time, Cao Wenhan was in a hurry.

"How many more times do we have to go?" Cao Wenhan asked.

Xi Chen looked at Cao Wenhan and felt very strange.

Cao Wenhan is an impatient person, which can be seen from this incident.

But when Cao Wenhan touches the sniper rifle, you don't feel any impatience when you are on Cao Wenhan.

Because when Cao Wenhan got the sniper rifle at that time, he would become calm.

For a goal, Cao Wenhan can remain motionless for a long time, and Cao Wenhan in that way and Cao Wenhan now are two feelings.

Xi Chen said funny: "Shall I get you a sniper rifle and let you carry it away?" ”

Cao Wenhan also knew what Xi Chen meant, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Aren't I in a hurry, we walked twice, and I looked around at some residential buildings and shops, as if there was nothing strange." ”

"That's because we're still walking less, keep walking." Xi Chen said.

Fang Siyu asked as he walked: "If that person hid his things on the way home, and he is still relieved, do you say that there are his comrades-in-arms living on this road?" ”

Fang Siyu's proposal is more reliable, because as long as you are comrades-in-arms, you can gain trust.

But at this time, Cao Wenhan said: "Impossible. ”

"Why?" Fang Siyu asked.

Cao Wenhan said: "His comrades-in-arms should not live so close to him, although they are easy to meet, but they are also easy to be discovered. ”

"He's an employee of a government building, he lives in the neighborhood, so the people in the neighborhood are his acquaintances, and it's easy to find out who he meets and who he has a good relationship with."

Cao Wenhan's explanation, Xi Chen agreed.

It is impossible for two people to be so close, and if they are really so close, it can only mean that the two are not an organization and do not know each other.

But experimental data, such an important thing, if you can't be sure that it's safe, you won't give it to the other party, so Xi Chen thinks that Fang Siyu's reasoning is wrong.

Fang Siyu also realized that what she said was not quite correct, and she asked, "Since this is the case, then what are we looking for now?" ”

Xi Chen said: "We walked this road twice, but the staff of the government building had to walk every day after work. ”

"He's been working here for a few years, so how many times has he walked this road?"

Faced with Xi Chen's question, Cao Wenhan said: "I can't count. ”

"Yes, he's been walking more times than he can count, so he might find some places, safe." Xi Chen said.

Why did Xi Chen go over and over again, it was to find the feeling of that person and see how he discovered this place.

Hearing what Xi Chen meant, Cao Wenhan said: "Then let's go, but I think the three of us should not go together, but should stagger together, so that we can get more information." ”

Yes, every time, the information is different.

Xi Chen said: "Very good, I'll continue to move forward, you turn your head and walk, Fang Siyu will also turn your head in a while." ”

"Okay." Cao Wenhan and Fang Siyu said.

The three of them began to walk, and this way, the three of them kept walking around.

When Xi Chen walked to the place and came back, he saw Cao Wenhan halfway, the two didn't speak, and then they didn't say hello when they saw Fang Siyu, they just walked over and over again.

At noon, Xi Chen stopped the two and said, "Find a place to eat." ”

Sitting at the dinner table, the three of them ate, Cao Wenhan said: "I observed all the shops around and found that there was no abnormality, as for the residential building, I didn't go in, so I don't know very well." ”

Fang Siyu said: "There are a few shops selling breakfast in the morning, but there are many people coming and going, and there is a lot of traffic, so it is impossible for him to hide things in these places. ”

Xi Chen nodded and said what he thought.

"It's bustling here, and there's a lot of traffic." Xi Chen said.

"You don't think he'll take the experimental data and just find a random car and put it on." Cao Wenhan felt that this was a bit too whimsical.

Xi Chen said: "It's really unlikely, because he can't be sure where the car will go, and if he can't find the car by then, it won't be troublesome." ”

"But it can't be ruled out that his situation was already very dangerous at that time, and in such a dangerous situation, he might make any unusual moves."

Xi Chen thinks that he can't talk too hard now, maybe that person just played a trick at that time, and no one could think of it, and the Japanese naturally couldn't think of it.

If his thoughts were normal, then wouldn't the Japanese have guessed that his approach would be useless.

Cao Wenhan asked, "Then what are we doing in the afternoon?" ”

"In the afternoon, we started to go into the shops and ask about every store." Xi Chen said.

Fang Siyu nodded and said, "Yes, let's go our separate ways." ”

Of course, we have to act separately, otherwise there are so many stores, and the three of them have a big goal together, which is easy to arouse suspicion, not to mention, and the efficiency will be very slow.

After eating, Xi Chen and the others began to act separately, and in every store, Xi Chen wanted to go in and inquire.

There are many shops and variety.

Breakfast has been closed, but as Fang Siyu said, the breakfast industry is not very suitable, and Xi Chen feels that he doesn't need to care.

I inquired about a lot of shops, and in the evening, the three of them visited the shops here.

After the convergence, Cao Wenhan couldn't help but speak first: "There is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in this store, I saw that the owners of several stores should be masters of shooting." ”

Cao Wenhan pays more attention to firearms, so he also knows about the people who use guns.

Coupled with Cao Wenhan's unique observation, he can see what others can't see.

Fang Siyu also spoke: "I also found that there are a few shops with people who seem to have some problems, as if they are not familiar with their own business at all. ”

The problems that Fang Siyu and Cao Wenhan said, Xi Chen also encountered a few.

"It's close to the government building, and it seems that there are a lot of people hidden in it." Xi Chen said with a smile.

Among these people, there are those of the underground party, the military commanders, the Central Union, the Comintern, the Japanese, and the puppet Manchurian government.

Anyway, it's a mixture of fish and dragons, no matter what the purpose, they all appear here.

"There are a lot of shops, how can we be sure which one it is?" Cao Wenhan asked.

Hearing Cao Wenhan's inquiry, Xi Chen said with a smile: "We don't need to determine which one it is, but we can exclude all of these." ”

"Exclude?" Cao Wenhan difference.

Xi Chen nodded and said, "Yes, we have been using the elimination method from morning to now. ”

"Be clear." Cao Wenhan felt that he was going to be confused by Xi Chen.

Fang Siyu also looked at Xi Chen curiously, and Xi Chen began to explain with a smile: "In the morning, we first excluded the residential buildings. ”

The residential building was excluded by Xi Chen in the morning, because when you enter the residential building, it means that you must know the people here.

It's different from entering a store, when you enter a store, you may be spending, but when you enter a residential building, you must be looking for someone.

If you enter a residential building, you will leave a lot of clues, and it is impossible for the Japanese to find them.

Xi Chen continued: "Then we excluded the breakfast shop. ”

This is what Fang Siyu said, she walked over and over again, and when she observed, she excluded these shops.

Xi Chen continued: "The Japanese also investigated these two stores at that time, arrested some people, and these stores were also excluded. ”

Since the Japanese were able to capture them, it means that this is not a safe place, and when that person hid the experimental data, it was impossible for him to hide in a place where the Japanese could be captured at any time.

"Now, we have eliminated all the suspicious stores that we have found." Xi Chen said.

"Why exclude?" Cao Wenhan asked.

"You think, the people in these shops are basically people with status. If you weren't sure of the other person's identity, would you put something so important in their hands? Xi Chen asked.

Cao Wenhan said: "What if I determine his identity, he is my comrade? ”

"Yes, if you are sure of his identity, he is your comrade, then why don't he give it to the organization when he gets the information?" Xi Chen asked.

Hearing Xi Chen's words, Cao Wenhan said: "I understand, no one in this group of people has obtained experimental data, whether it is anti-Japanese elements or Japanese. ”

"If the anti-Japanese elements got it, they should start propaganda now, and at the same time tell the Japanese that our test time has been taken away by us, and it is useless for you to investigate, maybe you can save those who were arrested by the Japanese." Cao Wenhan said.

Fang Siyu continued: "If the Japanese got it, then now the Japanese will take advantage of this matter and start to follow the vine, instead of still investigating the experimental data." ”

"So, we can all exclude these places, and if we exclude so many places, then there are not many places left." Xi Chen said with a smile.

Seeing Xi Chen's smile, Cao Wenhan couldn't laugh, Cao Wenhan said: "Even if you exclude these, there are more than 20 of them, which is quite a lot." ”

Cao Wenhan is right, there are many more, but in Xi Chen's opinion, at least it is a good start, otherwise there is no goal at all now.

"Let's go back, come back tomorrow, and focus on taking care of these twenty or so tomorrow." Xi Chen said.

These more than 20 are the places that they now identify as having experimental data.

So they have to work hard and look into it.

"Let's go, let's go back." Cao Wenhan shouted.

The three of them went back to their residences, and today was a day, and there was no gain, but there was also a harvest.

Not very clear and still needs to be investigated.

"Think about it at night, where the suspicious place is, tomorrow is the most important time." Xi Chen said.

Cao Wenhan asked, "Can I find it tomorrow?" ”

Facing Cao Wenhan's words, Xi Chen said helplessly: "What are you looking for, if you can find it so quickly, are the Japanese still waiting for us to find it?" ”

"Do you want to rule it out tomorrow?" Fang Siyu asked.

Xi Chen nodded and said: "Yes, the elimination method, we can only eliminate the impossible, and the rest is possible." ”

"And exclude, but tomorrow with what conditions do we exclude?" Cao Wenhan found that he still liked sniper rifles, and as for these things, Cao Wenhan felt a headache.

How to rule it out?

Xi Chen didn't have too good ideas in his heart, he said: "Tomorrow we will inquire about the reputation of their various stores, and the boss's personality." ”

"You're trying to take advantage of these?" Fang Siyu asked.

Xi Chen said: "The owners of these shops are not sleepers, they are all people with no identity, so it is impossible to deliberately let themselves be infamous in order to hide their identity." ”

Sleepers may go ununderstood and do bad things in order to gain the trust of their enemies.

But if you are not a lurker, you will not specialize in these things, and if you do, you are basically not a good person.

With this, some people can be excluded.

Because it is impossible for the people in the government building to hand over such an important thing to a person with a bad character.

Cao Wenhan said: "In this way, we can't exclude many people. ”

Xi Chen is not as optimistic as Cao Wenhan, and next time he said: "If you can exclude three, it will be good." ”

"So little?" Cao Wenhan asked.

"If you don't believe it, you'll know tomorrow." Xi Chen feels that tomorrow will speak with facts.
