My spy diary

Chapter 298: The Mistaken Car

While Wang Tianlin and Boss Dai were falling out, Chen Gongshu, who was in charge of the assassination mission in Hanoi, was also overwhelmed and complaining.

Because he was unfamiliar with the place, Chen Gongshu spent half a month investigating but couldn't even find Wang's residence, let alone monitor or sanction him.

In order to give an explanation to Boss Dai, Chen Gongshu called Yu Lexing, Cen Jiachao and others assigned to him by Boss Dai, and negotiated with several people from the working group, but no one could tell how to find Wang Tianhai's residence.

The leader of the assassination team was Chen Gongshu, and the first group of people to arrive in Hanoi consisted of seven people.

They are Wang Luqiao, the personal bodyguard of Boss Dai, Tang Yingjie, the instructor of the Military Control Bureau's Shancheng Martial Arts Training Class, and Yu Jiansheng, Zhang Fengyi, Chen Bangguo, and Chen Buyun, members of the action team of the Special Forces Corps of the Military Control Bureau Headquarters.

Wang Luqiao was good at spearmanship and could hit the target every time within a hundred steps.

Tang Yingjie, the instructor of the martial arts training class, knows "traditional kung fu" and has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. It is said that he can "shrink the power" and "fly over the eaves and walk on the walls."

This man was from Xichuan, 30 years old at the time, short in stature and plain in appearance, but he often called himself "Swallow Tang San".

In his early years, this man was imprisoned in the Secret Service Detention Center for committing a crime. The prison guards knew that he knew kung fu, so they put shackles on him. However, he was able to take off the handcuffs, shackles and shackles without any damage to his skin. This was his proud "clavicle technique".

As for his Qinggong, no one has ever seen it. It is said that this person has the skill of leaping over great distances. Not only can he pass through houses and rooftops as if walking on flat ground, he can also go up and down a ten-meter-high building with ease.

Some people said that they had seen this man holding an umbrella and jumping down from the roof of a building more than ten meters high. He landed on the ground without any sound, so they were amazed and thought he was an extraordinary person.

When Mr. Dai met this man, he was performing on the Shanghai Grand Stage. His martial arts skills caused a sensation, so he took him under his wing.

Apart from these two, the other five are experienced operatives, each with their own skills.

The second group assigned to Chen Gongshu were Yu Lexing and Cen Jiachao.

Both of them were Chen Gongshu's teachers in the Honggong Temple training class in his early years.

Yu Lexing was even known as a "Doctor of Chemistry" and "drug-making expert" in the Military Control Commission.

Boss Dai sent these two people there, firstly to serve as technical consultants for Chen Gongshu, and secondly to be responsible for "soft actions", mainly researching technologies such as poison gas, poisons, and time bombs.

Chen Gongshu was responsible for the "hard action", researching and implementing the assassination of Wang.

The third group was the Military Control Commission personnel responsible for transporting weapons, Cao Shiang and his French wife.

The two used their special background and French identities to successfully transport the weapons in.

Then the fourth group of people arrived. One of them was from Hunan named Tan Tianqian, who also studied in France and his girlfriend was also French.

Finally, Dai Chunfeng transferred several more operatives from Kunming for support.

It should be said that Dai Chunfeng mobilized all his wisdom and operational experience for this operation.

Every effort was made to provide adequate human, material and utilization resources.

But Chen Gongshu was still thinking about his position as stationmaster. In addition to the seven people in the working group, even his teachers Yu Lexing and Cen Jiachao were excluded, not to mention other operational personnel.

As soon as Yu Lexing arrived, he proposed a plan to use poison, but Chen Gongshu scoffed at it.

When he assassinated Shi Yousan, he used the poison provided by the Military Control Commission's Technical Department. However, the plan failed, the Peking Station was wiped out, and he himself "fled for fear of crime", so Chen Gongshu was terrified of poison.

This guy never reflected on the fact that he was too eager for quick success and the chef of Shi Yousan, who he bribed, made mistakes due to nervousness, which led to the failure of the plan. Instead, he blamed others.

So he directly arranged for Yu Lexing and several others who came after him to live outside, and only reported the situation when he remembered occasionally.

Chen Gongshu accepted the task inexplicably. As soon as he left, the position of stationmaster was replaced by someone else. He became suspicious and sent several telegrams to ask Boss Dai about his arrangements after the task was completed. However, all his telegrams fell into the sea.

This made him even more suspicious, and he was worried that he would be punished for not completing the task like he was in the last Shi Yousan case. Besides being uneasy, he didn't make any progress at work, and he couldn't help but complain, and he played mahjong for fun every day.

At this moment, when Dai Chunfeng's telegram inquiring about the progress of the investigation arrived, Chen Gongshu immediately panicked and remembered to invite Yu Lexing and others to discuss the matter.

He doesn't even know that he has so many resources in his hands, so how would the others who have been excluded by him know?

At this time, another telegram from Boss Dai arrived, asking him to find Mr. Xu.

Chen Gongshu then remembered that Dai Chunfeng had left him a business card when he left Annan.

Following the address on the business card, Chen Gongshu successfully met Mr. Xu.

He is in his 40s, wears a pair of high-power myopia glasses, is from Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, has studied in Europe and the United States, is prestigious in the local Chinese circle, and has contacts with the Hanoi authorities and senior French officials in Annan.

From Mr. Xu, Chen Gongshu successfully obtained the villa where Wang Tianhai temporarily lived - No. 27, Gaolang Street, Columbia Road, Hanoi City.

In addition, considering that Chen Gongshu and his colleagues were unfamiliar with the place and did not speak the language, making it inconvenient for them to carry out their work, Mr. Xu introduced him to Mr. Zeng who helped him run errands and a young man named Wei Chunfeng.

Wei Chunfen is in his early 20s and has a handsome face. His ancestral home is in Fujian, and he grew up in Annan. He not only knows French, but also speaks authentic Annan dialect and is very familiar with the local social customs.

Chen Gongshu immediately took Wang Luqiao and Wei Chunfen to No. 27 Gaolang Street for investigation.

But after going there several times, I rarely saw anyone coming in or out, and there were curtains drawn on every window, so I couldn't see what was going on inside the house.

Wang Luqiao said: "The car cannot stay for a long time, otherwise it will definitely be discovered. It is best to disguise yourself as a hawker or rent a house nearby to monitor."

Chen Gongshu said disapprovingly: "What's the point of renting a house? If you can't get inside, how do you know if Wang Tianhai is there and which room he lives in?"

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Wei Chunfen.

Wei Chunfen thought for a moment and said, "There is one person who can help, but we need to convince him first."

Chen Gongshu asked quickly: "Who is it?"

"He's a plainclothes policeman who happens to be in charge of patrolling the area around 27 Gaolang Street."

"What's your relationship with him?"

"He's my girlfriend's cousin."

Wei Chunfen grew up in Annan City. His girlfriend is also a local named Miss Ruan. The plainclothes policeman is her cousin.

"Very good!"

Chen Gongshu was overjoyed and immediately asked, "Are you sure you can convince him?"

"I can only try it with my girlfriend."

"Money talks. We just asked him to provide us with information, not to kill anyone. I don't believe he wouldn't be tempted by the money."

Chen Gongshu looked at Wei Chunfen without question: "I'll leave this matter to you."

Perhaps as the saying goes, money makes the world go round, Officer Ruan agreed to help.

But he was just a grassroots police officer and his knowledge of the situation was limited. Apart from being ordered by the Annan authorities to monitor and protect Wang Tianhai and others, he knew nothing else.

When Chen Gongshu's plan failed, he tried to bribe a detective-level leader through Officer Ruan, but Officer Ruan was afraid of losing his job and refused to do it.

Chen Gongshu had no choice but to place his hopes on Wei Chunfen.

Although Wei Chunfen is an operator, he has a high enthusiasm for work.

After a period of investigation, he found that there were many people living at No. 27 Gaolang Street, including men, women, young and old. However, apart from the Wang couple whose photos he had seen and Wang Tianhai's secretary Zeng Zhongming, he did not know anyone else, so the information could not be used effectively.

Chen Gongshu knew nothing about the frequent visitors to Wang Tianhai's residence, such as Zhou Mouhai, Gao Mouwu and the Japanese Yingzuo Zhenzhao.

After receiving the sanctions order against Wang Tianhai issued by Boss Dai, Chen Gongshu was instantly panicked.

What should I do? Until now, I still have not figured out the internal structure and living conditions of Wang's house.

Boss Dai had sent to him a total of 19 operational personnel, but most of them were marginalized by him. The only one he could use now was Tang Yingjie, who knew traditional kung fu.

Although Tang Yingjie is an instructor at the Shancheng Martial Arts Training Class of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he once worked under Chen Gongshu in his early years. He looks down on his arrogant boss and the two of them dislike each other.

At this moment, as he needed help from others, Chen Gongshu should have lowered his attitude and tried to win them over with kind words, but he still maintained a condescending attitude.

"Go ahead. Don't you know Qinggong? You must find a way to sneak into Wang's residence tonight and conduct a thorough investigation."

"Go ahead and make sure you complete the mission." Tang Yingjie sneered and walked away.

The next morning, Tang Yingjie came back and proudly told how he hung his feet on the roof with the posture of rolling up the curtain, and spied on the interior of Wang's house clearly, including which room Wang Tianhai lived in.

Chen Gongshu believed it without a doubt and immediately convened a working group of seven people to issue an order for sanctions to be imposed in three days.

Then the next morning, when Chen Gongshu was still studying the sanctions plan, Wei Chunfen rushed in in a hurry.

"The Wang family is packing their luggage and are probably going to go out."

"You're not trying to escape, are you?"

Chen Gongshu was shocked. It would be fine if Wang went to France, Europe or the United States. But if he went to Nanjing, Shanghai or Japan, the sanctions plan would fail and Boss Dai would not let him off easily.

He immediately ordered: "Chase."

So Wang Luqiao and Yu Jiansheng gathered four operatives who lived outside, and Chen Gongshu personally drove them to Wang Tianhai's residence immediately.

When they arrived, the two black cars carrying Wang and his group had already been on Hanoi's famous Red River Bridge, with the two sides several hundred meters apart.

"Just rush up and get close to them and kill them."

"Don't be in a hurry. Look carefully where Mr. Wang is sitting." Chen Gongshu hesitated and drove the car quickly over.

The cars were speeding past, and the agents in the cars saw it clearly. There were ten people in total in the two cars, including the drivers. In the front car were Wang Tianhai and his wife and secretary Zeng Zhongming.

"Turn around, kill him and rob him." Seeing Chen Gongshu still struggling, Wang Luqiao said urgently. "Wait a little longer, there are cars in front and behind, it will be difficult to evacuate." Chen Gongshu did not move, and while he was hesitating, the car Wang was riding in turned back.

"Oh no! Has he discovered us? Team Leader Chen, turn around and chase after him."

Chen Gongshu immediately slammed on the brakes and when he turned around, the car that Wang was riding in had disappeared.

The first opportunity was fleeting.

"Chase, and if they get close, shoot immediately."

Chen Gongshu gave another order in frustration and stepped on the accelerator to catch up.

We sped all the way and got onto the Red River Bridge again before we saw the back of the black car.

It was not until they reached the bridge that they narrowed the distance between them.

"Good opportunity, get ready." Wang Luqiao loaded the bullet and prepared to fight.

Team leader Chen Laoliu hesitated again: "There are so many people and cars here that we won't be able to get away. Let's wait until we cross the bridge."

However, what everyone did not expect was that just after Wang's car crossed the bridge, the light at the intersection turned red. Looking at a series of cars speeding past sideways, everyone could only sigh in despair.

The second chance was fleeting.

The crowd was dejected and had to continue driving the car to chase.

Unexpectedly, not long after passing the red light, the road took another unexpected turn in a commercial district.

There was another red light ahead, and Wang's car stopped right in front of them.

This was a godsend opportunity. The agent only needed to get out of the car and go around to the car where Wang Tianhai was sitting, and then he could launch an attack by surprise.

"Team Leader Chen, tell me, are you going to do it or not?"

Wang Luqiao looked at Chen Gongshu with gnashing teeth. Why should a real man be afraid of death? Why was hesitating and acting like a woman?

Chen Laoliu held the steering wheel tightly, his face gloomy. He glanced at the Wang car in front of him, then looked back at the increasing number of cars behind his car, and hesitated again:
"The retreat is cut off. How are we going to evacuate? Keep following and wait for the right opportunity to strike."

Everyone was speechless.

Chen Laoliu drove his car and followed the car all the way, but he never found a suitable sniping opportunity and could only watch the black car return to No. 27 Gaolang Street.

The third chance was lost again.

The operation failed, and Wang Luqiao and others were very angry. They didn't say anything on the surface, but they were full of complaints in private. It was really a case of one incompetent general leading to the death of the entire army.

But Chen Laoliu's focus at the moment was not here, he was also full of doubts.

Why did Wang suddenly leave? Where were they going? Japan? Or France?

Since you have already gone out, why do you want to turn back halfway?
Were they exposed? Or was the plan leaked? Was there a traitor among them? Who? The seven-member team was not a big problem, could it be the operator?

Chen Laoliu was full of doubts, but at this moment a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity appeared.

Operator Wei Chunfeng spotted the Wang couple on the lawn outside the villa at No. 27 Gaolang Street, seemingly arguing.

Chen Gongshu immediately drove over with Wang Luqiao and others, but there was no one on the lawn at that moment, only a closed gate.

The chance for the fourth sniper attack was lost.

After missing several opportunities in a row, Chen Laoliu was on the verge of depression and collapse. He vented his anger by cursing and gathered the team members again.

"I have decided to launch a strong attack tonight."

Chen Laoliu finally made up his mind. He took the six people from the daytime and drove away at 11:40 at night, quietly approaching Wang's house.

The plan was well-made, but as soon as they approached, they were discovered by two plainclothes Annan policemen on patrol, who drove them away immediately.

Fortunately, Wei Chunfeng, who was in charge of waiting, rushed over and bribed the two men with money, so as not to alert the enemy before the plan even started.

According to the plan, Chen Gongshu drove and waited at the entrance of the alley, while the other six people went straight to the back door of Wang's house with weapons.

At that time!

Tang Yingjie, who knew traditional Kung Fu, was the first to climb up the wall of the back door of the villa at No. 27 Gaolang Street. He wanted to open the door and welcome the others in, but the door was locked tightly by a thumb-thick lock inside the door, making it impossible to open it. Everyone had to use a human ladder to get in.

In this way, Tang Yingjie was responsible for leading the way, followed by Wang Luqiao, Yu Jiansheng and Chen Bangguo, Zhang Fengyi guarded the back door, and Chen Buyun walked between the alleys and the joints to be responsible for vigilance.

The four men entered the outer courtyard and found that the main door to the building was also locked. Before Wang Luqiao could say anything, Chen Banguo pulled out the double axes on his waist, chopped and chopped, and kicked the iron door open.

Wang Luqiao listened to the loud noises and glared at Chen Bangguo unhappily. Fearing that the noise would wake up Wang Tianhai and his guards, he ran upstairs without waiting for Tang Yingjie to lead the way, and Tang Yingjie and Yu Jiansheng followed closely behind.

Wang Luqiao and the other two had just reached the second floor when Chen Bangguo made another mistake.

In the darkness, he saw someone on the first floor opening the door and peeking out. Without thinking, he drew his gun and shot.

Not to mention the sound of the axe opening the door, the sudden gunshot at this moment undoubtedly increased the risk of exposure and shortened the time for action.

Wang Luqiao and the other two were nervous and anxious. They didn't care about anything else and went straight to the room where Wang Tianhao was located, which Tang Yingjie had detected.

But the door was locked from the inside and could not be opened at all. Wang Luqiao kicked it, but it still did not move.

He was about to shoot and break down the door, but Tang Yingjie quickly turned over and went downstairs to get Chen Bangguo's axe.

With two "bang bang" blows of the axe, the door was finally split open with a hole about one foot long.

Although the door couldn't be opened, the light from the corridor allowed me to see a person lying trembling under the bed, with his back and thighs exposed.

Because the man's upper body was hidden under the bed, his face could not be seen, but from the exposed body shape, Wang Luqiao concluded that this man must be Wang Tianhai.

Tang Yingjie investigated and found that this place was Wang Tianhai's bedroom. It was the middle of the night, who else could it be but Wang the traitor?
Now that the target is there, it will be easy.

Wang Luqiao raised his hand and shot without hesitation.

"bang bang bang"

After three shots, the man wailed a few times and lay motionless.

"Retreat." Wang Luqiao was absolutely confident in his marksmanship. All the bullets shot into the man's waist and back. Even if he didn't die at this moment, he would not live long.

At this moment, the sharp sound of police cars was heard in the distance, and everyone evacuated separately.

Tang Yingjie used his "qinggong" to jump onto the top of the wall, and pulled up Wang Luqiao who was following closely behind him, and then the two of them evacuated in different directions.

Chen Gongshu met up with Wang Luqiao and drove around for a few laps. The others had not returned yet. When he heard from Wang Luqiao that Tang Yingjie had also evacuated, and saw the police car roaring towards them, he immediately drove away.

He didn't worry about the safety of the other people at all. Wouldn't he be a fool if he didn't retreat when he heard the police car?

"How is it? Was it successful?" Chen Gongshu asked expectantly as the car drove not far away.

"Don't worry. He was shot three times in the waist and back. Even Hua Tuo couldn't save him." Wang Luqiao said confidently.

"That's great." Chen Gongshu finally felt relieved and smiled triumphantly.

He thought to himself that this should be the most brilliant case he, Chen, had ever done since he sanctioned the traitor Zhang Jingyao. Moreover, it was a cross-border attack, and the difficulty and time it would take were unimaginable. It was also the first time in the history of the Military Control Commission.

The success of this operation will undoubtedly fill the gap in the Military Control Commission's transnational assassinations and serve as a template for students in the training class to learn from.

By the way, he heard that his old superior Wang Tianlin was driven back to Tianjin by Boss Dai. At the moment, the position of Shanghai District Chief is vacant. If this operation is successful, maybe he can propose to his boss.
Chen Laoliu was thinking happily and went back to the base. He saw that only Tang Yingjie and Chen Buyun had returned, and the other three were nowhere to be seen. Then he felt something was wrong.

"Where are Yu Jiansheng, Chen Bangguo, and Zhang Fengyi?"

Tang Yingjie and Chen Buyun both shook their heads.

"Is there something wrong?"

Wang Luqiao asked in doubt.

Suddenly he remembered that the gate outside Wang's house was locked. The wall was more than one person high, and he was able to climb up with the help of Tang Yingjie.

Yu Jiansheng and Chen Bangguo happened to meet during their retreat, so they could use a human ladder to get out, but what if they didn't meet them? And Zhang Fengyi was guarding the back door and didn't enter the yard at all, so he should be the last one to get into trouble.

We looked at each other, and finally we all looked at Chen Gongshu.

Chen Gongshu's face was as gloomy as water. Compared with the execution of Wang the traitor, the loss of three people was insignificant. Moreover, they were all pseudonyms. Even if they were arrested, they would only suffer a little. But if someone could not withstand the interrogation and revealed his identity, then
Time passed minute by minute, and in constant agony, at five in the morning, the phone finally rang.

He is Mr. Xu, a well-known local in Annan.

"I just got news from a French friend that you have the wrong target. The man is fine. The injured one is his secretary Zeng Zhongming."

Chen Gongshu was stunned, his body stiffened, the phone slipped from his hand, and he muttered to himself in despair: "How could this happen?"

"What happened? Team Leader Chen?!"

“Wrong target”

"This is impossible." Everyone's heart sank instantly.

At this time, the phone rang again. Wang Luqiao picked it up and it was still Mr. Xu on the other end of the phone.

"Three of your men are under arrest."
