Chapter 31: Assassination of the Puppet County Magistrate

Zhang Lei, who was dressed in a gray silk robe and pretended to be a merchant, and Hu Taohua, who was wearing a blue cloth printed dress and a blue cloth headscarf on his head, walked side by side into a silk shop.

While Hu Tao was picking silk and satin, Zhang Lei stood at the door and observed a building diagonally opposite.

In the building lived the newly appointed puppet county magistrate, Zhang Lei received a telegram that Boss Dai asked Zhang Lei to kill the puppet county magistrate.

The guards outside the door are heavily guarded, and the people standing guard are all Japanese devils. The building has three floors, five rooms on each floor, and it is not clear which floor the pseudo-mayor lives on.

A small group of Japanese devils came over in two vertical lines carrying guns, and Zhang Lei returned to the counter to assist Hu Tao in selecting silk.

Zhang Lei and Hu Taohua walked slowly side by side along the street, and Zhang Lei said: "We must find out which room the pseudo county magistrate lives in." ”

Hu Taohua whispered: "I know which one to live in, and I can't get in!" ”

Zhang Lei said: "Go over the wall." ”

Hu Taohua was shocked and said: "There is a little Japanese standing guard at the door, and there are little Japanese patrols on the street. This house is as big as Zhang Xiaotian's house, and if you go in, you will die! ”

Zhang Lei said: "Unlike Zhang Xiaotian's house, the back wall is exposed, and you can completely unknowingly climb up from the back wall!" ”

Hu Taohua looked at Zhang Lei and whispered: "We have been together for so long, I don't know how capable you are, as if you can do anything." ”

Zhang Lei shook his head and said: "No one is omnipotent, and we are not immortals." ”

Hu Taohua said: "But in the ambush battle in Gucun, you were out of nowhere, one moment barge gun, one moment submachine gun, one moment grenade, one moment next to the mound, and one moment behind the Japanese devils, and you alone killed dozens of Japanese devils." I've seen it all! ”

Zhang Lei smiled bitterly and said: "That piece of land is a model of the railway station we built!" We know everything about every plant and tree. After Little Japan entered, it was equivalent to entering our preset position. But here, we don't know each other, and once the gun goes off, we can't escape. Our lives are worth more than the lives of the pseudo-county magistrates, and I don't want to trade our lives for his dogs. ”

Hu Taohua nodded and said, "Although I have come to play, I am not familiar with it." ”

Zhang Lei said: "I have already planned the retreat route, enter Yushan along the lake, and it will be safe to cross Yushan." ”

Hu Taohua nodded and said, "I have been to Yushan, and the scenery is good." But how can we find out which room the pseudo-county magistrate lives? ”

After thinking about it, Zhang Lei smiled and said, "Go and have a look at the vegetable market!" ”

Hu Taohua smiled and said, "If you want to eat, we can go to the restaurant." ”

Zhang Lei said: "Go around!" Maybe there will be a reward! ”

When the stall owner weighed the pork, Zhang Lei asked: "The county magistrate's family also came to buy meat, right?" ”

The stall owner said triumphantly, "Yes! My pigs are all killed before dawn, and the meat is fresh! ”

Zhang Lei asked: "Who usually buys it?" When to buy? ”

The stall owner asked, "What do you want to do with this?" ”

Zhang Lei smiled and said: "My wife bought silk and wanted to give it to the county magistrate's wife, patting the horse's ass." ”

The stall owner sighed and said, "It seems that you are not good people. ”

Zhang Lei paid two more silver dollars and whispered: "Two dollars buy you a word." ”

The stall owner held the silver dollar in his hand and said with a smile: "Every morning, the meat of the county magistrate's house is bought by the cook Ah Qiang. If you want to find him, come early tomorrow morning. ”

In the inn, Zhang Lei hugged Hu Tao and fell asleep peacefully, Hu Tao looked at Zhang Lei's face, his eyes were full of tenderness and sweetness.

Receiving the heavy responsibility of assassinating the pseudo-county magistrate, it is very likely that he will die during the assassination, and ordinary people will not be able to sleep. But Zhang Lei is not an ordinary person, after he emptied his brain, he fell asleep as soon as his eyes were closed.

Hu Taohua couldn't sleep, she kept the same position for too long, her arms were numb, she wanted to move but was afraid of waking up Zhang Lei, and her hormones were vigorously secreted, she really wanted Zhang Lei.

Before dawn, Hu Taohua couldn't help it anymore and gently kissed Zhang Lei's lips.

Zhang Lei sucked his lips, and Hu Tao stared at Zhang Lei's face, with a happy smile on his face.

Early in the morning, Zhang Lei and Hu Taohua came to the meat stall again and picked out a piece of meat, and Zhang Lei gave the stall owner two more silver dollars as he did yesterday.

The stall owner told Zhang Lei to wait and said, "Ah Qiang will be here soon." ”

Ah Qiang is a middle-aged man in his forties, and when Ah Qiang was walking back with vegetables, Zhang Lei caught up with him and insisted on inviting him to eat tofu brain by the stall.

Ah Qiang felt that Zhang Lei was not like a bad person, and listened to Zhang Lei's emphasis that he wanted to meet the beautiful wife of the county magistrate through him, so he agreed.

Hu Hua put the silk wrapped in oiled paper in the vegetable basket and said with a smile, "You can give it to my wife for me!" I'll give her less today, and if she's willing to be friends with me, I'll give her more. ”

Ah Qiang smiled and said: "The top characters in Changshu want to make friends with their wives, and someone sends her things every day." ”

Zhang Lei suddenly asked in a low voice: "Which room does the county magistrate live in at night?" ”

Cuong said casually: "The easternmost room on the second floor." ”

Zhang Lei handed Ah Qiang two silver dollars and said with a smile: "If you can make friends with the county magistrate's wife, your share is absolutely indispensable." ”

Late at night, Zhang Lei and Hu Huahua walked slowly along the wall in the small alley.

There are Japanese devils standing guard at the gate of the county magistrate's house, and behind the building is a blue brick wall about two meters high, which is not guarded.

Zhang Lei asked Hu Huahua to catch the wind outside the wall, and he leaned over the wall with both hands.

Zhang Lei came to the back wall of the building, and he leaned in again, put his hands on the edge of the window, and his body was volleyed, looking into the room.

Zhang Lei pulled out the dagger from his trouser belt and gently pulled the window pin, the window was pushed open, and Zhang Lei got into the room.

The necks of the sleeping pseudo-county magistrate and his wife were wiped off by daggers.

In order to disguise himself as a puppet county magistrate who robbed money, Zhang Lei took a piece of cloth, piled all the jewelry and silver dollars he could find on the cloth, tied them, and then drilled out of the window.

In the small alley, Zhang Lei and Hu Taohua walked forward quickly.

By the lake, Zhang Lei and Hu Tao walked into the woods.

Soon after, the two disappeared into Yushan.

Zhang Lei, who was walking forward, suddenly stopped, and Hu Taohua asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhang Lei said: "I promised the patriarch that I must find Gu Yutong and protect her." ”

Hu Tao whispered, "Where to find it?" ”

Zhang Lei said: "School! ”

Hu Taohua whispered, "There must be martial law in the city." ”

Zhang Lei said: "It's not easy to come here, I feel very guilty about the sacrifice Gu Cun made for us, Gu Yutong's father is a division commander and is fighting bloody battles against the Japanese invaders on the front line, who can guarantee that he will not die in battle?" In order for this Master Gu to fight with peace of mind, we also have to take another risk and find a way to rescue Gu Yutong from the fire. You have to understand, if the Japanese devils and traitors knew that Gu Yutong's father was the master, they would still let her go? Gu Yutong is in a dangerous situation, and he may be arrested at any time. ”

Hu Taohua nodded and said, "I will do what you say, anyway, I will listen to you for everything." ”

The next day, the entire Changshu was under martial law, and the pseudo-county magistrate would be assassinated by people unknowingly under such strict protection. Who did it?

The Changshu side reported that it might be a robbery, but the division commander had to be connected with many incidents, the railway station was bombed, all 150 people in Gu Village were killed, and this time the county magistrate of the Changshu Special Government was assassinated again.

Liuhe Song Eryun uses his hands to wipe his neck, and he can kill a person with a clean knife, this person must be a master, how can ordinary petty thieves do it?

Liuhe Song Eryang shouted: "Come on!" ”

The adjutant ran in, and Liuhe Song Eryang said loudly: "Post a notice in Changshu and offer a reward of 100,000 oceans to reward those who provide clues." ”

After the adjutant went out, Liuhe Song Eryang called the commander of the Suzhou military police and said, "Have you found any clues in the railway station case and the Gucun case?" ”

The commander of the gendarmerie replied: "It is estimated that someone from the military command did it." ”

Liuhe Matsujiro shouted: "Is it possible that the New Fourth Army did it?" It is estimated that no, and a full investigation must be carried out. ”

The commander of the gendarmerie replied: "Yes!" ”

Liuhe Matsujiro called the Shanghai side and said, "The Suzhou Special High School needs support, please send competent personnel over immediately." ”
