Chapter 394: You've come to the right person

The money was received. Zhang Yong really did release the person.

I am Liu Heizi. Reputation first.

Chen Gongshu didn't say anything either. Because of the 60,000 silver dollars, Zhang Yong and he split it equally.

Tianjin Station gets half. Zhang Yong gets half.

Turn it in? Haha.

There is no such thing for the time being.

Tianjin Station is currently in a huge hole. The funds are simply not enough.

However, Chen Gongshu is a good man at organising actions. But when it comes to money, he is definitely not that capable...

A secret discussion was held.

Tianjin Station will take half of all actions taken by Zhang Yong in Tianjin.

Tianjin Station's promise is that support will be in place at any time. The maximum support capacity is 50 people. Fully armed.

If there is an additional 10,000 silver dollars, at least one regiment of troops can be mobilised.

Tianjinwei had a garrison. It was under the jurisdiction of the 29th Army.

However, the senior officers of the 29th Army at the time were wavering in the face of the Japanese invaders' enticements. They were selfish. They were indecisive...

The Japanese had a large garrison in Tianjinwei.

This was the location of the Japanese invaders' North China Garrison Headquarters. There was a Japanese concession.

In Haiguang Temple, there was also a brigade of the Japanese invaders' marine corps. More than 1,000 people. There was also a Japanese naval fleet in Tanggu.

It can be said that at this moment in Tianjin, the Japanese invaders are very powerful.

The 29th Army stationed in North China, although the rank-and-file officers and soldiers actively resist the Japanese, the higher-ups still hope to negotiate...

Night.

Dinner.

Then back to work.

There's another red dot nearby. Less than 200 metres away.

The Japanese invaders really don't give Tianjin Station any face. They've planted so many Japanese spies right under its nose.

Depart.

Approaching red dot.

It turns out to be a Chinese restaurant.

The Japanese spy is the owner of the restaurant. It seems he is also the chef?

Amazing.

The Japanese spy can actually be a Chinese chef.

Impressive.

A large group of people enters.

The owner greets them with a smile, 'What would you like to eat, gentlemen?'

'You can cook Chinese food?' Zhang Yong is very curious.

'Yes!' The owner's response is very strange. But it is also very natural.

It was as if he were saying, 'I'm Chinese, how could I not know how to cook Chinese food?' You've got to be kidding me.

Zhang Yong took out a large bill.

'Just the thing, make me some hot and sour shredded potatoes.'

'What?'

'Hot and sour shredded potatoes.'

'Well... could you please take a look at the menu first?'

'There's no menu?'

Zhang Yong curiously picked up the menu.

Huh?

It seems there really isn't one.

What a disgrace.

What a shitty restaurant. They don't even have sweet and sour potato strips.

Back in the day...

Never mind. A hero doesn't talk about his past glories. Back in the day, when I didn't have any money and went out to eat, sweet and sour potato strips were a must-order dish. They were cheap and filling.

'Spicy eggplant?'

'They don't have that either...'

'Boss, you're Japanese, aren't you?'

'What?'

'I said, you don't even know how to make these basic dishes. Are you a Japanese spy?'

'You, you, you...'

The boss was furious. His cheeks seemed to be twisting.

It was as if he were silently accusing him of being Japanese. This was a great shame.

In his extreme anger, he didn't even bother to defend himself.

'How about this, boss, I'll give you five silver dollars. You stand outside the restaurant and scold the Japanese emperor for ten minutes. What do you think?'

'Ah...'

The restaurant boss was dumbfounded.

This was...

He was a Japanese spy, so how could he publicly scold the emperor?

If it was discovered afterwards, it would be very troublesome. The military police headquarters would make him commit hara-kiri as penance.

'So, you dare not curse?'

'I, I...'

'So, admit that you are Japanese!'

'I am not...'

'Arrest him!'

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

Several people immediately stepped forward and started to do it.

The restaurant owner did not resist violently. Resisting was useless.

Everyone else had already revealed the black muzzles of their guns. There were also so many people. The result of resisting would be being killed.

'Take him away!'

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

No point in interrogating him. Just keep arresting people. We'll collect them in bulk later...

Let's see the next target. Oh, it's so close. Only about 100 metres away. Approaching quickly.

It's a rickshaw puller. He's resting at the base of the wall. Holding a burnt-looking pancake in his hand.

When Zhang Yong and his men approach, the rickshaw puller doesn't move.

He just looks at them curiously.

He's got some nerves.

Zhang Yong waved his hand, and a group of people immediately rushed up and seized the man.

'Hey, hey, what are you doing?'

'What are you doing?'

The rickshaw man yelled desperately. But it was useless.

His mouth was quickly covered with a rag. Then he was taken away. He was thrown directly back into the courtyard of Tianjin Station.

Continue to seize.

The next target was only about 200 meters away.

Basically, after seizing one, the map already showed another one.

There was no end to the arrests...

There's no way to finish them all...

Five...

Six...

Finally, when Zhang Yong captured the eighth one, he stopped.

It was mainly because it was late at night. It was already 3am. Everyone started yawning. The capture movements were not as nimble.

So the team was disbanded.

The people Zhang Yong brought were all staying at the hotel.

The outer perimeter was handled by the agents at Tianjin Station. This was to prevent any sneak attacks by the Japanese invaders.

Zhang Yong wasn't afraid of this.

If there was a Japanese sneak attack, he would definitely sense it in advance.

The distance of 250 metres was enough for him to prepare for it.

Cao Mengqi was sleeping next door.

Five American-made Springfield M1903 rifles were also nearby.

As long as the target was locked in, they could be used to shoot from a distance. The enemy would never be given the chance to get close to the hotel.

However...

'Ring ring ring...'

'Ring ring ring...'

As he slept, the phone rang again.

Previously, Zhang Yong had specifically instructed the hotel switchboard not to cut off incoming calls.

He was waiting for the other party to call a second time.

Who was the other party?

He wasn't sure. But it definitely wasn't a friend.

Since it wasn't a friend. Then he had arrested so many Japanese spies today, the other party would definitely call again.

With great difficulty, he gathered his spirits. He picked up the receiver. Without saying a word,

'Zhang Yong, you're going too far,' the other party said testily, as expected.

'Are you Tomohiko Yagami?' Zhang Yong guessed boldly.

'Yes, that's right.' The other party admitted frankly.

Oh, so it really is you!

Zhang Yong felt relieved. It was good to know who it was.

It meant he had found the right person.

'Give me Yang Junjian. I'll let all your people go back to you.'

'No way!'

'We're all working for the boss, why hurt each other?'

'Baka!'

'I'll take Yang Junjian back and hand him over. You take your men back. We'll pretend that nothing happened.'

'No way!'

'You can't make the decisions, can you?'

'Damn it! Your provocation won't work on me! We'll never agree to your arrogant demands.'

'Then I'll keep arresting people when I wake up.'

'Damn it!'

'I'm going to sleep!'

Zhang Yong yawned. He threw the phone down. But he didn't put it back on the hook.

The other end of the line. He Zhiying was both anxious and angry.

He heard Zhang Yong snoring. He wasn't sure if it was real or not.

This son of a bitch is really killing me.

Why did he suddenly come to Tianjin? I thought he went somewhere else.

I haven't heard anything from Jinling or Songhu. Then Zhang Yong suddenly appeared in Tianjin.

Then he arrested several Japanese spies in one go. Then He Zhiying couldn't sit still.

Last night, the intention was to scare Zhang Yong a little and make him back off. But it seems to have had the opposite effect?

Damn it!

After that son of a bitch wakes up, I'm afraid he'll really go around arresting people.

No.

He can't be allowed to continue.

Damn it!

Hang up the phone.

Bring the other phone over. Pick up the receiver.

'Let's do it!'

'Yes!'

...

Zhang Yong slept in a daze.

This He Zhiying is also a reclusive person. He doesn't sleep at all in the early morning.

Unfortunately, the other party may really not know Yang Junjian's whereabouts. That's troublesome. If even He Zhiying doesn't know, it means that Yang Junjian is being hidden.

Moreover, the hiding place should be very secret. Maybe only Toiihara knows?

In that case, it will be very difficult to kidnap him.

Damn...

Don't go on a wild goose chase...

Suddenly, a thought occurred to him. A red dot entered the map range.

Then another red dot...

And then another red dot...

Huh?

What's going on?

Red dots keep appearing. And in different directions.

Could it be that the Japanese are preparing a surprise attack?

Shit, this is bad!

If the soft approach doesn't work, they're going for the hard approach.

Brace yourself. Wake up. Knock on Cao Mengqi's door next door.

Cao Mengqi's room doesn't have a phone. Only Zhang Yong's room is a deluxe suite. It has a phone.

He also knocked on the doors of the other people's rooms to wake them up.

'Enemies are coming!'

'Prepare for battle!'

'Cao, bring your rifle and follow me!'

'Okay!'

Cao Mengqi immediately grabbed his Springfield M1903 rifle and followed Zhang Yong.

Zhang Yong led him to the southwest corner of the hotel and hid behind the window of a guest room. From here, he could see the movements of one of the Japanese invaders.

It was nighttime, so visibility was very low. There was only very faint light.

Even with the help of the map, Zhang Yong had difficulty quickly locating the position of each Japanese soldier.

However, the Japanese soldier in front of him was special. He was exposed.

'You see?'

'I see.'

'Kill him!'

Zhang Yong said angrily.

The Japanese spy had actually launched a large-scale sneak attack!

Damn it!

Disturbing someone's rest was equivalent to murder!

A heinous crime.

Unforgivable.

Unfortunately, he doesn't have Cao Mengqi's marksmanship. Otherwise, there would be no need to speak. One shot and he's dead.

'Pop!'

Cao Mengqi has fired.

The target collapses. Then the red dot disappears.

Good. One down.

The distance is about 130 metres. Lao Cao's marksmanship is really good.

As long as he is given a target, he can basically kill it.

Next...

'Pop!'

Another shot.

Another red dot disappears.

The sound of gunfire seems a little out of place at night. But no one seems to care.

In Tianjin, the Japanese army often launches exercises with bravado. The sound of gunfire is too familiar to the local people.

Those who are not used to it have already moved away. Or fled for refuge.

The rest don't want to go. Or can't go. When they hear the gunfire, they roll up their quilts. As if nothing had happened. They continue to sleep.

Even the police patrolling the streets are unmoved. What about the gunshots? Who dares to go near?

They are not stupid.

In such a dangerous situation, it is best to pretend not to hear.

'Pop!'

'Pop!'

Cao Mengqi killed five Japanese invaders in a row.

At this time, Zhang Yong saw clearly through the binoculars. The Japanese invaders were using short guns.

He was puzzled. There were no Type 37 rifles?

Are they going for hand-to-hand combat?

It was difficult to find the other Japanese invaders.

They used the surrounding obstacles for cover and gradually approached the hotel.

After the gunshot, the agents on the outside retreated to the innermost part of the hotel.

Outside the hotel, there were no more of their own people for the time being.

This was just right.

When the spy entered 50 metres next to the hotel, the light became much brighter. There were street lamps around the hotel.

No spy could completely hide himself.

Point to Cao Mengqi.

'Pop!'

Cao Mengqi raised his hand and fired.

The spy immediately collapsed. Then the red dot disappeared.

Good. Another one down.

Moving on.

Targeting the second one.

'Pop!'

Cao Mengqi fired again.

The second spy fell over. Then the red dot disappeared.

Moving on.

The third one...

Moving on.

The fourth one...

Just like a robot.

Targeting the target.

Target locked.

Target destroyed.

It was like a production line.

Apart from changing the magazine, there was no other movement.

Finally...

the last Japanese spy was eliminated.

There were no more red dots to be seen around the hotel.

Zhang Yong then yawned and went back to bed. So sleepy. So sleepy...

Everything would be discussed after a good night's sleep.
