Spy War: I am the Living King of Hell

Chapter 274 "The Witch of Kanto" and "The Thousand-Faced Lady"

The woman turned around in the alley and finally stopped in the middle of a small alley. Then she looked around and saw that there was no one. She took a few more steps and knocked on the door of a household. Soon, another woman opened the door and welcomed her in.

When the two went in, Yang Xuewu's figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the alley. If they saw this scene, they would be scared to death.

"Sister Mei, what's the situation? Have you found out anything?" A hurried female voice asked as soon as they entered the house.

Upon hearing this, the woman called Sister Mei said, "Zhanjiang, I have found out where Wang Tianyi is. He lives in the French Concession just like us. This traitor is quite good at hiding."

"That's great! This dog traitor is so hateful that I must kill him with my own hands." The woman named Zhan Jiang said viciously.

Hearing this, the woman named Sister Mei shook her head and said, "Zhan Jiang, although I have found out the whereabouts of Wang Tianyi, the villa where Wang Tianyi lives is heavily guarded. I have carefully investigated and there is no way to sneak into the villa to kill him. If we want to kill Wang Tianyi, we must take a long-term approach."

"Sister Mei, with my skills, I don't believe those Wang Tianyi guards can stop me." The woman called Zhan Jiang said confidently.

"Zhan Jiang, I've told you so many times, don't think that you can kill anyone you want just because you are good at fighting. If you insist on doing it this time, don't blame me for sending a radio message to transfer you back to headquarters." The woman named Sister Mei said sternly.

Hearing this, the woman named Zhan Jiang said coquettishly: "Okay, okay, Sister Mei, I won't do what you say. Isn't it okay for me to listen to you?"

"You, I really can't do anything with you."

"Hehehe, Sister Mei is the best to me."

……

Listening to the conversation between the two, Yang Xuewu was 90% sure that the two women were from the Military Control Commission, but he really had no impression of this "Sister Mei" and "Zhan Jiang".

In fact, these two people are very famous. They had been lurking in Shanghai before the Anti-Japanese War. It is not surprising that Yang Xuewu did not know them.

One of these two people is named Wu Zhanjiang and the other is named An Yimei. Both are ace female agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Wu Zhanjiang was born in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province in 1913. He was physically strong since childhood. In middle school, he learned Chinese martial arts and Japanese judo from a reclusive martial arts master and could speak fluent Japanese.

Later, he entered the Peking Senior Police Officers School. In addition to being good at grappling and fighting, Wu Zhanjiang could also hold the gun with both hands and shoot with both hands. His shooting skills were extremely accurate. He ranked among the top in various subject assessments of the Peking Senior Police Officers School. Because of his charming and gentle appearance, he was known as the "Northern Beauty" in the school.

Because of her outstanding performance in school, she was secretly selected by Dai Chunfeng to join the Secret Service Department of the Fuxing Society. Because of her hot temper and superb martial arts skills, she was also called the "Kanto Witch".

Wu Zhanjiang was quite pretty and often went to places where Japanese gathered, such as the Japanese Academy and the Japanese Naval Club. She used her beauty to extract a lot of information from those lustful Japanese men.

An Yimei, a native of Shanghai, graduated from Jinling Central Police College. She can speak English, Russian, and Japanese, and is proficient in boxing, fighting, assassination, shooting, and tracking. She can also ride horses, drive, and take photos.

Of course, what she is best at is makeup. In addition to makeup, she is also good at playing various roles without being discovered by the target objects, so she is called the "Girl with a Thousand Faces".

Moreover, An Yimei is very good-looking, smart and clever. She is an excellent female agent. Between her and Wu Zhanjiang, she has always been in a dominant position, responsible for investigation and planning. If there is an action mission, it is usually Wu Zhanjiang, who is more skilled, who will take action. The two of them cooperate seamlessly every day and have made many contributions in Shanghai in recent years.

The reason why Yang Xuewu didn't know the two of them was, firstly, that their identities were extremely secretive and ordinary people had no way of knowing them, and secondly, that the two of them were careful and cautious and never revealed their identities when performing their tasks.

Yang Xuewu thought about whether he should send a telegram to the headquarters to inquire about the identities of the two people, but after thinking about it, he decided not to send it as it was quite taboo.

However, his interest in these two women did not diminish at all. Yang Xuewu believed that, besides himself, there must be many independent agents of the Military Control Commission lurking in Shanghai, but only these two women found Wang Tianyi's residence, which made Yang Xuewu look at them with admiration.

He planned not to take the initiative to attack Wang Tianyi first, but to follow the two women to see if they could kill Wang Tianyi.

If they could kill Wang Tianyi, Yang Xuewu would not take action. If they could not kill Wang Tianyi, it would not be too late for Yang Xuewu to take action.

"Zhan Jiang, come, let me put on some makeup for you, and then I'll take you to scout around Wang Tianyi's villa. Starting tomorrow, the two of us will monitor Wang Tianyi in batches, find out his activity patterns, and make sure there is no risk before we take action against him." Sister Mei said.

"Okay, Sister Mei."

About half an hour later, Yang Xuewu heard the two people going out, then he quickly hid in the corner and waited for them to go ahead.

Through observation, Yang Xuewu found that Sister Mei's face had changed again. As for Zhan Jiang mentioned by Sister Mei, it was the first time he saw her and he didn't know what her original appearance looked like. But through their conversation, Yang Xuewu understood that Zhan Jiang's current appearance was definitely not her original appearance.

Not long after, the two came to the villa where Wang Tianyi lived. Sister Mei whispered the situation to Zhan Jiang as they walked. However, their conversation was very natural, just like two good sisters whispering to each other, but their conversation was heard clearly by Yang Xuewu.

In the following days, Sister Mei and Zhan Jiang monitored Wang Tianyi's villa in groups, and Yang Xuewu did the same.

However, it seems that Wang Tianyi, the traitor, was really scared. He hid in the villa for several days and refused to go out.

In later times, with the company of electronic products such as mobile phones, computers, and televisions, it would be understandable not to go out for ten days or half a month. But in this era, no matter how strong a person is, it is impossible to stay at home for ten days or half a month.

Wang Tianyi was also among them. Ten days passed in a blink of an eye. The panic in Wang Tianyi's heart had slowly dissipated, and was replaced by desire. He longed to go out and play. If he betrayed the Military Control Commission just to be imprisoned like a prisoner, then what was the point of his betrayal.

Wang Tianyi has a hobby of playing mahjong. In fact, he has played several games of mahjong with several guards in the villa in the past few days. However, the guards are not of equal status to him, so playing mahjong is always not so enjoyable.

Now that several days had passed, Wang Tianyi felt that he could go out and move around. He couldn't just stay in the room like a mouse and get moldy. So he called Li Qun and told him his request. After answering the call, Li Qun thought about it and agreed.

Li Qun told Wang Tianyi that he would send someone to pick him up tonight and promised to play mahjong with him in person.

After hanging up the phone, Li Qun thought for a while. He felt that it would be very dangerous to let Wang Tianyi show up now, but danger also comes with opportunities.

After Wang Tianyi told Li Qun about the Military Intelligence Network in North China and Shanghai, Wang Tianyi's weight in Li Qun's heart immediately dropped a lot, because Wang Tianyi no longer had much value in his heart. This is a typical example of "using people forward and not using them backward."

The reason why he agreed to play mahjong with Wang Tianyi tonight was because he wanted to use Wang Tianyi again. If the Military Control Commission did not want to take action against Wang Tianyi, then he would just treat playing mahjong with Wang Tianyi tonight as a pastime. But if the Military Control Commission wanted to take action against Wang Tianyi, then tonight would be a great opportunity. Li Qun believed that the Military Control Commission would definitely not miss such a good opportunity.

Li Qun's idea was very clear, which was to use Wang Tianyi to lure out the snake, set a trap, and then catch all the Military Control Commission personnel who came to assassinate Wang Tianyi. It must be said that Li Qun's calculations were very precise.

At this time, Wang Tianyi had no idea that he had become a pawn used by Li Qun to lure the Military Control Commission's operatives into the trap. If he knew, he would probably deeply regret betraying the Military Control Commission.

At around 6 o'clock in the evening, a car drove into Li Qun's villa. After a while, three cars drove out. Yang Xuewu clearly saw that Wang Tianyi was sitting in a car.

"It's so late, what is Wang Tianyi doing outside?" Yang Xuewu thought to himself.

However, this was a good opportunity for him, Sister Mei and the Zhan Jiang sisters. After Wang Tianyi left, Sister Mei and the Zhan Jiang sisters immediately drove to follow him, while Yang Xuewu followed Sister Mei and the Zhan Jiang sisters on a bicycle.

Wang Tianyi's motorcade left the French Concession and headed straight towards Hongkou. About an hour later, Wang Tianyi's motorcade stopped in front of a restaurant.

When Wang Tianyi arrived, Li Qun had already set up ambushes in the restaurant. He was confident that if the Military Control Commission members dared to assassinate Wang Tianyi in the restaurant, he would definitely make sure they would never return.

Soon, Wang Tianyi was personally welcomed into the restaurant by Li Qun. The other two people who played mahjong with Wang Tianyi were Ding Mocun, another director of No. 76, and Chen Minchu, who helped Li Qun to persuade Wang Tianyi to defect.

Wang Tianyi was very happy to see these two people. After a meal, they started playing mahjong. Wang Tianyi was very happy at the mahjong table, as if he had forgotten that he was in danger all the time.

On the other side, watching Wang Tianyi enter the restaurant, Zhan Jiang said to Sister Mei: "Sister Mei, what should we do? Do you want me to go into the restaurant and assassinate Wang Tianyi?"

Hearing this, Sister Mei shook her head and said, "No, I suspect there is an ambush in the restaurant."

Zhan Jiang was anxious when he heard this, and quickly said, "Sister Mei, it would be a pity if we don't kill Wang Tianyi with such a good opportunity."

"Zhan Jiang, this is not a good opportunity, but a trap. You're right to listen to me. Besides, we can kill Wang Tianyi not only in the restaurant."

Hearing this, Zhan Jiang was startled and asked, "Sister Mei, what do you mean?"

"I plan to kill Wang Tianyi on his way home. This will help us escape smoothly. If we enter the restaurant, if the enemy has an ambush, we will be in great danger."

"Sister Mei, you are really thoughtful. I'll listen to you and let's go to the road to make arrangements."

On the other side, Yang Xuewu, who heard the conversation between the two, nodded with satisfaction. This Sister Mei has a really clear mind. She is worthy of being the person who can find Wang Tianyi's whereabouts on her own.

Because Yang Xuewu clearly heard the conversation coming from the restaurant, someone asked the service staff in the restaurant to carefully observe the people entering the restaurant to ensure the safety of Li Qun and other three. Since even the service staff were spies, the restaurant must be full of spies at this moment. Therefore, assassinating Wang Tianyi in the restaurant was a very unwise approach.

In fact, even if it was Yang Xuewu, it would be impossible for him to kill Wang Tianyi under such circumstances. His idea was the same as Sister Mei's, which was to kill Wang Tianyi halfway.

Therefore, when Sister Mei and the other person left, he followed them quietly. If Sister Mei and the other person could successfully kill Wang Tianyi tonight, he would not show up.

The mahjong game lasted until after 2 a.m., and Wang Tianyi ended the game because of the pain in his waist. After the game, Wang Tianyi went to the French Concession under the escort of his guards.

Not long after Wang Tianyi left, Li Qun thought about it and took his men to follow Wang Tianyi. He was a little confused that the Military Control Commission did not take action against Wang Tianyi tonight, but he had a feeling that Wang Tianyi's journey back to the French Concession would not be peaceful, so he thought about it and decided to follow Wang Tianyi. If the journey was smooth, then he would consider it as his escort for Wang Tianyi. But if the Military Control Commission really took action against Wang Tianyi on the road, then he could reap the benefits.

About an hour later, Wang Tianyi's car drove into the French Concession. On a street shortly after entering the French Concession, the driver of the lead car in Wang Tianyi's convoy found two women blocking their way.

The two women seemed to be drunk, swaying left and right on the street, laughing and cursing loudly from time to time, looking a little crazy. In order to avoid killing anyone, the driver had to step on the brakes to stop the car.

When he stopped the car, he forced the other two cars to stop. Then the driver of the first car got out and drove the two women away. However, the two women were unreasonable and kept making a fuss, saying that the road was not theirs and why should they give way.

As a last resort, the guard who also got out of the car pulled out his gun and pointed it at the two women, and the two women gave way.

When the driver of the lead car and the guards got on the car, the two of them staggered to the second car where Wang Tianyi was riding. When the driver of the lead car started the car, the two women's temperament changed. They pulled out guns and pointed them at Wang Tianyi in the car, then fired several shots.

All this happened in a flash. By the time others reacted, Wang Tianyi had been shot to pieces and several guards in the second car were also all killed. Hearing the gunshots, Li Qun, who was following behind, immediately ordered his men to speed up. In fact, Li Qun's convoy was only about 200 meters away from Wang Tianyi's convoy, and they could arrive there in a flash.

After confirming Wang Tianyi's death, the two women fled immediately. If Li Qun had not followed them, their plan might have been successful and they would have escaped smoothly.

But the accident came so suddenly. When the two women found that someone was driving a car behind them and shooting at them, they both had a bad feeling in their hearts. They felt that they might be in danger this time.

At this time, Li Qun in the car saw the two women running away while firing, and excitedly ordered his men: "Don't kill them, I want them alive!"
