In the end, he resisted.
A small forbearance leads to a major disaster. The loss to himself is even greater.
Zhao Zhenzhao, the Shadow Killer, can only kill quietly. It is best to create the illusion of accidental death.
Or use someone else's hands.
In short, he had to get the 200 visas. But he couldn't expose himself too early.
Walking a tightrope?
Yes. It was indeed a bit difficult.
Walking in the dark and working in hell was extremely difficult in the first place.
Especially for an amateur like him, not to mention.
The previous kidnapping of Wu Yuanfu had caused a lot of trouble. If he didn't handle the killing of Kagekatsu well, it was estimated that there would be trouble in both places...
Wait silently.
What was Kagezo Shigenobu doing at the Tilanqiao Prison?
Was he there to humiliate Zhu Yuan?
He sent someone to prison, but that didn't satisfy his hatred, so he had to come to the prison in person to finish the job?
It turned out that wasn't the case.
When Kagezo Shigenobu came out of the prison, he was accompanied by several people in the procession.
These people were still wearing prison uniforms. They were obviously brought out of the prison.
I see. Kagezo Shigenobu also brought people out of the prison to do dirty work.
The huge Tilanqiao Prison must have held innocent people. But, more than anything, it held all kinds of truly vicious criminals. These people were real criminals. They had no sense of right or wrong. They were cruel. They were cold. They were veritable villains, scum, and losers. By releasing them, Kagezo Shigeaki was sure to unleash evil.
Frown.
Kagezo Shigeaki was truly vicious.
He used these scum and losers against the anti-Japanese elements. How sinister.
This is the prototype of No. 76!
Later, No. 76 was established with the support of Kagezo.
This guy also plotted the Wang Jingwei's betrayal. Later, he also handled the establishment of the Wang puppet government.
Because of his series of conspiratorial activities, after the war he was also classified as a Class A war criminal. Unfortunately, he did not wait for his trial and died of illness. It can be considered a favour to him.
Mark them!
Mark them all!
Mark all those scum.
Those willing to work for the Japanese invaders must not be good people. Get them all and dispose of them.
Five...
Ten...
Fifteen...
There are quite a few. There are thirty of them.
This Kagezo Shigeaki is quite something, extracting 30 in one go.
Last time I extracted 10 myself, it cost a full 5,000 US dollars. I wonder if this Kagezo Shigeaki son of a bitch wants to be paid separately?
If not, it shows that power really is very useful. Even in the concession.
As long as there is enough power, you can do whatever you want.
Naturally, Zhang Yong thought about fostering his own agents in the concession.
Or rather, to foster his own umbrella.
In the Special Branch of the Ronghui Society, Li Boqi was his umbrella.
In the Air Force, his wife was his umbrella.
But in the concession, there was no suitable candidate yet.
He must be a foreigner.
He must have the opportunity to be promoted. It would be best if he could enter the Public Works Department.
Yes. Only by entering the Public Works Department can he have a relatively large influence. Only in this way can he secretly counter the Japanese's infiltration and pressure.
The problem is, who is suitable?
He doesn't know much about the Department of Public Works. He doesn't have any personal connections with anyone there...
'Lao Pao!'
'Here!'
'Aim at the prisoner in the back. Do you see him?'
'Yes.'
'Kill him.'
'Yes!'
Lao Pao agrees.
Then he shoots.
Bang!
A crisp sound.
The target falls. Right in front of the prison gate.
The white dot on the map disappears. It means the target is dead. One shot.
'Do another.'
'Yes.'
Pop!
Another crisp shot.
Another prisoner is shot in the head. Then the white dot on the map disappears. Death confirmed.
'Hagah!'
Kagezo Tadaaki immediately senses that something is wrong.
There is an ambush.
He quickly hides behind the others.
Meanwhile, the veteran Japanese soldiers around him, as well as the traitorous Manchukuo ironclads, hastily deploy into battle formation.
Zhang Yong frowned quietly.
These are veterans! They move very quickly.
The tactical distribution is also very appropriate. Someone has proven to be approaching. Someone is flanking.
The speed of the flanking is extremely fast. It shows quite a deep military literacy. If the regular National Army encounters them, it is estimated that the flank will soon be defeated.
If it is a close-range dogfight, perhaps after a few minutes, they will be surrounded.
Fortunately...
Zhang Yong is not ordinary.
He waved his hand quietly. He told Lao Pao to monitor from a high place.
The gun fired.
The French would intervene.
The French at this moment were still arrogant.
It didn't matter who tried to reason with them. Even the British and Americans.
In the end, the Führer managed to get the French to listen.
Kagezo soon found Zhang Yong.
He certainly knew Zhang Yong.
Suddenly, enemies met and were extremely jealous.
However, it was at this time that a group of French soldiers arrived.
The French captain in charge of the soldiers looks at Kagezo and walks towards him. Kagezo produces his identification.
The French captain then walks towards Zhang Yong. Zhang Yong also produces his identification. It is from the British. It is more effective.
Sure enough, after looking at the identification, the French captain turns back to Kagezo, raises his hand, waves it in the air, and speaks a bunch of gibberish in French.
After a moment, the interpreter by his side spoke succinctly, 'The Public Security Bureau requests that you negotiate peace.'
'I have no problem with that,' Zhang Yong replied very cooperatively.
Over there, Kagezo also responded in Japanese.
After the translation, the French captain led his soldiers back to the vicinity.
Zhang Yong glanced at Kagezo, then gave him the middle finger.
Kageasa Teizō didn't understand the meaning of this gesture. But he could definitely guess that it wasn't good.
So he quickly assumed a fighting stance.
Zhang Yong turned his head. He patted the other person on the butt. Damn it. Eat shit. I'll shit on you now.
Kageasa Teizō's face suddenly turned as dark as water.
Zhang Yong smiled smugly.
In his heart, he was actually secretly angry. Damn it. I can't beat you in a fight!
This Yingzuo Zhenchao, although not as tall as him, is very strong. He really has no confidence in a one-on-one fight. Even if he wins, it will be a miserable victory.
He has to think of a way to ambush this guy from behind.
I guess the other party is thinking the same thing. Waiting for an opportunity to get rid of him. Zhang Yong!
The tension is palpable.
It's about to erupt.
The French soldiers began to come forward.
They were eyeing the two men. They will come up at any time to arrest the two of them.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao raises his hands to show the French that he means no harm. Zhang Yong also opens his hands. To show that he has no intention of fighting.
There is no choice, in front of the French, you have to be submissive!
In the huge public concession, the French are the most domineering. There is also the largest garrison. There are almost 2,000 of them.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao steps back.
Zhang Yong also steps back. To distance himself from the other party.
Zhang Yong pointed at the two bodies on the ground and then at himself. He was saying that he was the one who did it.
Ying Zuo Zhen Zhao's face suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
This Zhang Yong. What the hell! How dare he kill his men right in front of his eyes!
A demonstration?
Showing off?
A provocation?
Maybe all of the above!
The other party was openly provoking him.
He was angry.
But there was nothing he could do.
There was no chance of him fighting now. Even if he did, he would not stand a chance.
He could only leave in a huff.
Later, the French troops also left the scene.
Since there was no chance of a conflict, the French left it alone for the time being.
Zhang Yong had in his hands a document signed by the British. The French would not completely ignore the face of the British.
After all, in the past, during the First World War, the British and French had fought together.
Zhang Yong then led his troops to the prison gate without incident.
'Your Excellency, are you here to...'
'I want to meet Zhu Yuan.'
'Do you have a meeting document?'
'I have been entrusted by His Excellency, the Supreme Leader of the Greater German Reich, to investigate certain matters. I need to ask Zhu Yuan for information.'
'I'm sorry...'
'Are you trying to insult His Excellency, the Supreme Leader of the Greater German Reich?'
'I didn't mean to offend...'
'Then get lost!'
Zhang Yong's face was taut. His eyes were gloomy.
If the name of the German leader could not even intimidate a prison, then that would be ridiculous.
As it turned out, his worries were unnecessary.
Once he mentioned the name of the German leader, the prison authorities immediately let him go.
At the same time, they sent someone to guide him to Zhu Yuan's cell.
Fortunately, Zhu Yuan's cell was a single room. It was somewhat similar to the prison cell in the TV series.
In any case, Zhu Yuan had also worked in a police station before. He was still a team leader.
Zhu Yuan looked very surprised when he saw Zhang Yong appear.
'What are you...'
'Just passing by. Thought I'd drop in.'
'Ugh...'
Zhu Yuan's expression was gloomy.
Zhang Yong walked up to him. He looked him up and down.
He really didn't expect to see the other man in prison. Still, Tilanqiao Prison.
'I used to think you were a Red.'
'Me? A Red?'
'Yes.'
'You overestimate me.'
'Why did Kagezo Tadaaki go after you?'
'I don't know.'
Zhu Yuan shook his head. He said he was confused too. He didn't understand.
Although it was true that he usually didn't care much for the Japanese, he still put on a show. So why all of a sudden...
'What connections do you have?'
'What connections?'
'Don't tell me you don't have any connections in the concession. Otherwise, how could you be transferred from Shanghai to Tianjin and back again?'
'Well...'
'I don't believe in coincidences.'
'I...'
Zhu Yuan was silent.
Zhang Yong then stopped pressing.
Obviously, the other party had something they couldn't talk about. So be it.
These days, who doesn't have a secret or two!
Zhu Yuan's reaction instead ruled out the possibility of acting with Kagezo Sadakazu.
If Kagezo Sadakazu had deliberately used such a ploy to get Zhu Yuan to infiltrate the anti-Japanese elements, he would have definitely found a suitable reason.
'I know some anti-Japanese elements,' Zhu Yuan finally said. His tone was obscure.
'And?' Zhang Yong's expression did not change.
'Actually, there is not much overlap between them and me...'
'Has Yingzuo Zhen'ao found out?'
'Yes. He has. He is very cunning. He has many informants. I know many smiling tigers. But he is the most terrifying.'
'Terrifying?'
'Yes. This guy is very smooth. He is good at everything. Everyone in the Public Works Department speaks highly of him.'
'Really?'
Zhang Yong frowned inwardly.
Sure enough, this Kagezawa Teizō is a tough opponent.
He is not afraid of the Japanese arrogance. Arrogance often means arrogance. It means looking down on everything. It means overestimating oneself.
Akagi Takasumi is just like that. He always overestimates himself. He dared to act alone. As a result, he was ambushed many times by himself. To be honest, Zhang Yong still misses it very much. For every hit, he gets money. There is no faster way to make money than this.
However, Kagezo Teisho was not Akagi Takasuke.
Kagezo Teisho would never make the mistakes that Akagi Takasuke had made. Therefore, he would never get the chance to commit a sneak attack.
What was most fatal was that Kagezo Teisho had successfully secured the support of the Public Works Bureau.
In the future, many policies and orders would be implemented with the help of the Public Works Bureau's decrees to achieve Kagezo Teisho's personal goals.
It can be imagined that the laws of the concession would become increasingly ruthless against anti-Japanese elements. The Japanese would continue to grow in power within the concession. The number of Japanese secret agents gathering in secret and hardcore traitors from the puppet state of Manchukuo would also increase.
Later, there might even be Japanese military police stationed there to directly crack down on anti-Japanese elements.
Without the concession as a cover, it would become increasingly difficult for all anti-Japanese elements, regardless of faction, to survive. The losses would also become increasingly great.
So...
How do you plant people inside the Municipal Council?
