Chapter 37: Eating the Bitter Fruit of Yourself (2)
Yu Sheng and Su Yingjie, as well as Ji Yang and Chang Buji, stood in the principal's office. Suddenly, I heard a faint explosion outside. A moment later, Su Yingjie's friend in the patrol room called and told Su Yingjie that the truck that drove away from your school just now exploded in the department store! You guess it's going to be a little bit of a hassle!
Su Yingjie let out a sigh of relief, his clothes looked palpitating, and he sat back on the chair.
Take a moment of respite and let go of the horror. Only then did he inform Yu Sheng and everyone of the results, and said, "This time it's thanks to Mr. Yu!" ”
Yu Sheng pushed Chang out and said with a smile: "This time it's thanks to Xiao Chang's craftsmanship!" I don't dare to take credit! ”
"Yes! Oh, yes! Su Yingjie laughed and said: "Huaxia will be tilted, even if it is a rooster and a dog thief, it can also be for the country and the people!" ”
Chang Buji's petty theft skills were learned when he was taken in by a gang of thieves after his family was ruined and forced to leave his hometown. But such a gang can't last long in troubled times. Soon after, it fell apart. However, Chang Mo seems to have been born with this understanding, although he has not learned much about hand, but he has gradually formed his own set of crafts.
This journey has been bumpy, and it is precisely because of this craft that I can eat and drink without worrying and survive. Although he later met Ye Wuguang and Qing Xiaoyi, in the refugee shelter, in order to support thirty-six children, he did not do this kind of thing. Of course, the target of the theft will not be refugees.
It wasn't until I met the rest of my life that I was taken in and had no worries about food and clothing, and I gradually converged.
When moving something down from the truck, you can tell which package feels different from the others. This is a kung fu that he has practiced for a long time, and he can easily distinguish all the subtle differences between the shape, center of gravity, and balance of two roughly similar objects in the package. And from this, the specific objects wrapped in the package are deduced.
And hand speed, and clever visual blocking, is also a skill that he has practiced for a long time and has a lot of experience. Advertisements that have been marked are often easy to distinguish. The loose rope makes it easy to replace the advertising paper.
Although in the telescope for the rest of your life, everything looks like walking on a tightrope, and if you make one wrong step, you will fall into the abyss. And often do this step by step, it is actually no thrill or danger.
Eventually, the explosives pack was left in the car and the soap was left at the school. Since the payment was made after the goods arrived, and the owner of the department store was dead, there was no one to collect the payment for the half truck. So, it's equivalent to picking it up for nothing.
As for the traitor boss of the department store, I don't know if Jiuquan will be happier to receive the same amount of paper money.
Although the Zodiac Society's plan to create a bombing in Shanghai Middle School did not succeed, another plan did! Su Yingjie just breathed a sigh of relief, and another phone call came in. The other end of the phone only said a very brief sentence, but Su Yingjie jumped up from the chair as if he had been pricked by a needle, and his voice changed: "You, you, what did you say?" You repeat? ”
There was another short sentence on the other end of the line, and then he hung up. Yu Sheng and the others looked at Su Yingjie's dejected appearance, and were a little surprised: "Principal Su, what's wrong?" ”
"Just now, President Liu Zhanen of Huguang University was assassinated!"
"Huh?"
*************
At the beginning of 1938, the International Relief Society entrusted Liu Zhanen to go abroad to raise relief funds for Chinese refugees. Liu Zhanen is familiar with the fundraising, and feels that it is for the country and the people. And he readily agreed. Then the Chinese travel agency in Shanghai booked a ticket to Hong Kong on April 13.
When the Japanese learned of this, they ordered the Zodiac Society to assassinate Liu Zhanen before he left Shanghai! Chang Yuqing then sent four cadres, Zhao Jinquan, Yue Peizhi, Zeng Shougeng, and Chen Lianxi, disguised as rickshaw drivers, newspaper sellers, firewood sellers, and hidden pistols, to seek opportunities to assassinate Liu Zhanen near Anlefang.
At this time, due to the repeated intrusions of the Japanese, the patrol house in the Shanghai Tang Concession had already raised the alert level to the highest level. Every street was densely populated with sentry posts, and none of the four men had succeeded.
It was Thursday morning, April 7th.
Liu Zhanen and his sister Liu Mingzhen, as well as their young son Liu Guanghua, who had a toothache all night, walked out of the alley of Anle Fang talking and laughing.
Liu Guanghua is at this time when he has wisdom teeth, and the so-called toothache is not a disease, but it hurts to kill. Liu Zhanen felt sorry for his young son, so he prepared to take a taxi to take Liu Guanghua to the famous Salt Industry Building Dentist Clinic in Shanghai Tang to see his teeth. Just as the taxis in later generations were not easy to call, there were few taxis in Shanghai at this time. Early in the morning is the time for everyone to go to work, and there is no empty car. Liu Zhanen and the three had no choice but to take the bus instead.
At this time in Shanghai, buses are a very cost-effective means of transportation. It doesn't cost much, it's extremely fast, and it's best for office workers. And the largest number of people in Shanghai are these little ones who have no money in their pockets, but are dressed brightly. Coupled with the influx of refugees into the concession, the population has exploded, and the daily buses are even more crowded.
And once the bus arrives, everyone will desperately squeeze forward. As for the people and environment around them, there is no time to take care of them. Whether it is an ordinary Xiaokai or a university president like Liu Zhanen.
To get to the Salt Industry Building, you should board the bus at the bus stop at the intersection of Dahua Road, which is closer to Anle Fang. Liu Zhanen pushed his sister and young son to get into the car first, but forgot that there were still wolves around him, ready to go.
The long-awaited people in the Zodiac finally found an opportunity, Zeng Shougeng raised his gun and shot, and a shot hit Liu Zhanen in the back. In such a crowded crowd, Liu Zhanen didn't even have the slightest chance to dodge. Liu Zhanen rolled over and fell.
Liu Guanghua heard the gunshots, and when he turned back, his father had fallen into the dust. I can't help but tear my eyes. At this time, the Zodiac congregation began to shoot indiscriminately! More than a dozen people were hit by stray bullets and rolled over and fell to the ground. The gunshots rang out incessantly, and everyone fled, instantly drowning the whereabouts of the Zodiac Church in the sea of people.
Liu Guanghua saw a person out of the corner of his eye, wearing a black robe, and even holding a gun in his hand! He jumped out of the car regardless of it, ran wildly all the way, and chased away. While running and calling for help, the British patrol heard Liu Guanghua's cry for help and saw the man in a black robe running in front of him, so he chased after this person with Liu Guanghua. And this person is Zeng Shougeng, who shot Liu Zhanen!
Hujiang University had a great influence in Shanghai at this time, and Liu Zhanen was extraordinarily influential, and there were many people who knew Liu Zhanen. At this time, Li Changyun, a student of Hujiang University, and Victor Hansen, a foreign professor, were present. Seeing this, Victor Hansen pursued Zeng Shougeng with patrolling Wade and Liu Guanghua. And Li Changyun went straight back to Hujiang University and reported to everyone at Hujiang University. And Liu Zhanen's sister Liu Mingzhen had come to her senses at this time, stopped a car, and sent Liu Zhanen to Baolong Hospital.
Although Zeng Shougeng was unlucky, he was followed by everyone. The pistol, on the other hand, was dumb and could not be fired back. But he is indeed a member of the Zodiac Society, and he can be regarded as brave and strategic. Seeing that everyone was chasing, they couldn't fight back. While escaping to the Metropolis Night Garden Ballroom, he threw away his black kaftan and pistol in a secluded location. He sat alone on the steps at the entrance of the ballroom, pretending to be someone else.
However, this good and evil will be rewarded in the end. Although Zeng Shougeng's plan to empty the city sang well, it completely fell into the eyes of the ballroom doorman, and the ballroom doorman blew the siren after Liu Guanghua and the three approached. Zeng Shougeng saw that the situation was not good, and when he turned around and was about to run, he was pressed to the ground by the four people who chased him.
Although Liu Zhanen was taken to Baolong Hospital in Shanghai in time, the bullet passed through the vital part. In the end, there was too much bloodshed, and a generation of patriots died.
