At the same time, Zhang Chi, who had not waited for news from Liu Zezhi for a long time, finally decided to go to Zhou Chengbin for instructions, and Yu Haochen, who went to the Nanjing Government Ministry of Defense Guest House at six o'clock to reconnoiter the terrain, would return to the Western restaurant, leaving him with little time.

At the gate of the guest house, Liu Zezhi was extremely dissatisfied: "Tanaka-kun, did you take the place of Yue Ling?" Not allowed to go out? Is this up to me and Asano-kun? ”

Tanaka Katsuei said with a straight face: "This is Director Ni's order. ”

"Director Ni? Didn't he go to Japan? ”

Katsuei Tanaka sneered, "You'll soon know that Captain Kwon will be there soon." ”

With a sigh, Liu Zezhi's heart rose to his throat: Ni Xin and Quan Kanhu did not go to Japan, but in Nanjing! Could it be that Gong Zhenzong was exposed? And who are the people who go to get information? Have you been exposed yourself? No way, I haven't done anything myself these days. Calm down, you must be calm, Liu Zezhi repeatedly warned himself.

In the room, Asano was also very strange and asked, "Tanaka-kun, why are you here?" Liu Sang, aren't you going to buy something to take away tomorrow? Why didn't you go? ”

Liu Zezhi said angrily: "Why didn't I leave? This is for Tanaka-kun! He decreed on your behalf: No one is allowed to go out! It was also said that it was Director Ni's order. ”

At present, among the heads of various departments of No. 76, Katsuei Tanaka is the most eye-catching is Asano and Liu Zezhi, and he is too lazy to explain.

He Qixin's voice came from outside: "Captain Quan, I almost didn't recognize you in this dress, please come in, Asano-kun is inside." ”

Wearing a fur hat that was almost pressed between his eyebrows, a trench coat with an upright collar, and a pair of light brown eyes and a two-handful mustache, Kwon Kan Hu walked into the room, took off his hat, and said while taking off his trench coat: "Isn't it to hide people's eyes, I didn't dare to come with Tanaka-kun." Asano-kun and Director Liu, hard work. ”

Asano asked with one click, "It's really you, you didn't go to Japan...... So Director Ni didn't leave either? What the hell is going on? ”

Quan Kanhu replied: "Director Ni is also in command of the operation in Nanjing, let me inform you: the military commander will steal the battle plan of the Imperial Army of Western Hubei in the hands of Inoue Kazuhiko tonight, Director Ni ordered us to let them succeed, the difficult thing is to do something like that, not to let the military commander be suspicious, let's discuss the details." ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all understood Ni Xin's intentions. Liu Zezhi's hanging heart also let go a little: it turned out that the battle plan was fake! Things are not so bad that they are irreparable, Zhang Chi and others will not be arrested if they steal the battle plan, but will be deliberately let go. He only needs to inform Zhou Chengbin afterwards that the battle plan is fake, and the military commander will not have any losses.

Gong Zhenzong should be exposed, in order to hide people's eyes, No. 76 will not be arrested for the time being, just find a chance to let him escape safely. Now it's okay, there's no need to even find a chance to go out and report the news.

Liu Zezhi pretended to be the last to understand: "Don't arrest? Why? Oh, I see, it turns out that the battle plan in Inoue-kun's hand is just a bait, and if I knew it was so, Asano-kun and I wouldn't be all the grass and trees these days. ”

Since being induced to confess, Liu Zezhi was seriously injured, and Liu Zezhi has not complained after the incident, Quan Kanhu is very unhappy, and the relationship with Liu Zezhi is getting closer and closer, seeing that Tanaka Katsuei is about to reproach again, he rushed forward and said: "This matter is absolutely confidential, except for the five people here, only General Ono and Director Ni know, Director Ni also believes in the ability of the two, and it is more like it is true." ”

Asano, who was also a little dissatisfied, felt a lot more comfortable when he heard this, and then regretted it again: "It's a pity that I can't personally arrest the military commanders and bandits who came to steal the battle plan!" ”

After receiving a phone call from Zhang Chi asking to meet, he had already met with Zhou Fohai, and Zhou Chengbin, who had already decided to leave to return to Shanghai, postponed his trip. At 5:20, at St. Paul's Cathedral in Nanjing, Zhang Chi met Zhou Chengbin, disguised as a priest.

After listening to Zhang Chi's report, Zhou Chengbin pondered for a long time and ordered: "There is no information from No. 86...... Hold still! ”

"But the opportunity must not be lost, there will be no chance in the future, I think is it possible that the eighty-sixth has no chance to get out? Or did he know Gong Zhenzong's identity and thought that Gong Zhenzong would send information, so there was no need to take risks? ”

"According to the latent discipline, he and Gong Zhenzong are not subordinate to each other, and whether Gong Zhenzong sends intelligence or not has no impact on whether he acts or not. Lao Zhang, you don't know Eighty-Six, he is one of the best agents I have ever met. Don't worry too much, he accompanied Yokoyama to western Hubei, and there will be a chance in the future. ”

Zhang Chi nodded and said, "I listen to you, this may not be an opportunity, but a trap." Then I'll go first. ”

Zhou Chengbin's judgment is right, who knows that God will not bless me, yin and yang.

At half past six o'clock, Ni Xin returned to the military police regiment station, and saw Commander Du, who was very anxious and pacing back and forth: "Commander Du, what's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

"You're back! Director Ni is responsible for tracking the report of the team named Zhang Chi: Zhang Chi went to St. Paul's Church to meet a person, and it was the Zhou Chengbin you said! ”

Ni Xin was stunned on the spot! Zhou Chengbin? The soul of the Shanghai Branch, Zhou Chengbin, the killer of the royal faction of the military command, has appeared! The opportunity to catch them all is just around the corner! What to do? His face suddenly became cloudy, and he stood there speechless.

In just a few days of getting along, Ni Xin in the eyes of Head Du was gentle and peaceful, and his joy and anger were rarely colorful, and he asked cautiously: "Director Ni, did you hear my words clearly?" You see...... What should I do? ”

If we want the Chongqing government to believe the battle plan in our hands, not only can we not arrest the people who went to steal the plan on the spot, but we will also not be able to do anything to Zhou Chengbin and others in the near future. And once these people return to the base areas under the military command, when they will return to Shanghai, and which road they will take, it is not possible to figure out by tracking alone, not to mention that since Song Ningsheng's grocery store was cracked, there is not even a contact point there at present, and the military commander is impeccable in the strict anti-espionage work in his own territory, and he has temporarily arranged manpower, and he is not in a hurry.

Just watched Zhou Chengbin and the others escape from their control safely? Ni Xin is really unwilling!

Until Head Du reminded again: "Director Ni...... Director Ni, look at ......" Ni Xincai made a decision and ordered: "Dispatch capable personnel, you personally lead the team, secretly surround St. Paul's Church, find a place with a public telephone, forcibly temporarily requisition, temporarily detain personnel, set up a monitoring point, notify me of the number, and without my order, you must not alarm the opponent." Before you leave, you will assemble two more operational teams and put them under my command. ”

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

Quan Kanhu and the other five discussed the details of the action, Liu Zezhi and He Qixin were indispensable, but Asano and Tanaka Katsuei had repeated disputes, and Quan Kanhu had to be patiently persuaded to settle at eight o'clock. Quan Kanhu said: "I caught Zhou Chengbin a few days ago and missed, and I urgently need to make meritorious contributions, everyone, I will command this operation, how about it?" ”

Ni Xin had already ordered Quan Kanhu to be responsible, and everyone had no objections, and Quan Kanhu said again: "Team Leader He, except for Inoue Kazuhiko on the second floor, there is only one translator and one secretary, in case you hurt Inoue-kun, it will be difficult to explain, you take a few people to live on the second floor, just in case." ”

He Qixin nodded in agreement.

Tanaka Katsuei said: "I went to the western restaurant to command and monitor Zhang Chi, and I will work hard for you here." ”

As time passed, the nerves of several people became more and more tense, and who knew that at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, it was still silent and peaceful.

Liu Zezhi walked back and forth in the room irritably, and Asano, who had been wiping the gun by the moonlight, frowned and said, "Can you stop and stay?" It upset me. ”

Liu Zezhi raised his hand to look at his watch again, and replied: "It's past twelve o'clock, it's the twenty-seventh, why haven't you done it yet?" Don't wipe it, beware of misfire. ”

He became more and more worried: Why didn't the military commander act? Could it be that he didn't receive his own information, and Zhang Chi canceled the operation, so what should I do? Will Ni Xin order the arrest? This is highly likely. Zhang Chi didn't know himself, and canceling the action was not in line with his personality. If it was Zhou Chengbin, there was such a possibility, but the information Xu Jianxue received was very clear: Zhang Chi was responsible for commanding this operation. Such an important action is in charge of Zhang Chi, where did Zhou Chengbin go? Is it to meet Zhou Fohai? So he was also in Nanjing, and Zhang Chi made the decision after he asked him for instructions?

Asano, who was also anxious, replied with one click: "I won't go off, I took off the magazine." Where's Captain Kwon? ”

"He must be in the room, don't go out, Lao Quan didn't even let the light on, saying that he was going to act unconscious. Someone infiltrated, will the surveillance sentry arranged by Lao Quan report with the call of three owls? Asano-kun, did you say that it was possible that the owl called, but you and I didn't hear it? ”

"It's impossible, it's so quiet at night, wait a little longer, someone sent information, someone took it, Zhang Chi also showed up, it's impossible for the military commander not to do it."

Liu Zezhi had no choice but to nod, turned around and sat on the edge of the bed, and asked, "Who is the spy you said sent the information?" Lao Quan still hid it from a few of us. ”

"Do what we do, he doesn't say it's right, don't ask."

The two chatted and waited, and soon it was 3:15 in the morning of the 27th, and Asano couldn't sit still, got up and paced back and forth in the dark, and kept talking to himself: "What's the matter? At this time, not coming? See a flaw? Zhou Chengbin, a lone wolf, no, he is much more cunning than a wolf......"

Liu Zezhi concluded that the military commander canceled the operation, and with his understanding of Zhou Chengbin and Zhang Chi, he could basically conclude that Zhou Chengbin was in Nanjing, and it was his decision to cancel the operation, where is Zhou Chengbin? If he had come to Nanjing to meet Zhou Fohai, then his place of stay would have been St. Paul's Cathedral. You must immediately try to inform him that Gong Zhenzong is exposed, and Zhang Chi and others have been monitored! How can I get rid of Asano Key who is in the same room?

Even more anxious than them was Ni Xin from the gendarmerie corps station, who had been standing by the window, looking at the endless night. At half past three o'clock, Ni Xin's expression was solemn, he walked to the telephone, and dialed the phone of Head Du: "Head Du, I am Ni Xin, is there any movement in the church?" ”

"No, everything is fine."

Ni Xin resolutely ordered: "Arrest at 3:45!" It's okay to live or die, Zhou Chengbin ran away, I'll send you to a military court! I'll send Kwon Kan to reinforce you. ”

"Yes, please rest assured Director Ni."

Ni Xin continued to dial the phone of Tanaka Katsuei, who was monitoring Zhang Chi and the others, and after giving the same order, he said sharply: "Execute the order, General Ono will explain himself, otherwise I will never let you go!" Do you understand? He Qixin will go to reinforce you soon. ”

"Please rest assured that Director Ni will follow the orders." At this time, Zhang Chi and the others have not yet set off, Tanaka Katsuei is also worried that things will change, and decided to do it, anyway, Ni Xin will take care of everything afterwards, if he dares to disobey, he and Ni Xin's family will be settled, and Ono Heiichiro may not protect him.

Finally, Ni Xin dialed Asano's one-click phone.

Asano agreed with one click: "Yes, please rest assured Director Ni." ”

Putting down the phone, Liu Zezhi asked anxiously, "Whose phone is it?" Did Director Ni call? Things have changed? Why did you turn on the lights? Asano-kun, what the hell is going on, speak! ”

Asano replied energetically: "I'll go arrest Gong Zhenzong!" Escort him to Director Ni for handling. You go and inform Captain Quan, Director Ni ordered to stop waiting with your pockets open, and the military commander should cancel the operation. In case the military commander comes, you take the rest of the people to arrest them, dead or alive! Inform Quan Kanhu, lead the team to St. Paul's Church, He Qixin go to the Western restaurant, and reinforce the roundup of Zhou Chengbin and Zhang Chi. ”
