Agents of the Republic of China

Lin Xiaotang and Yazawa Shinichi arrived in Suzhou on the same day.The difference is that Yazawa Shinichi led the elites of the extra-high school and drove directly to Suzhou from the highway, while Lin Xiaotang and others arrived quietly by train.

Suzhou fell during the Songhu Anti-Japanese War. At that time, Suzhou, as an emerging industrial and commercial city in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, was bombed indiscriminately by Japanese aircraft, and the urban area was severely damaged.After the Wang puppet government took over, although a certain degree of rectification and restoration was carried out, the entire city can still see the marks of war everywhere.

Before occupying Suzhou, the Super High School had dispatched personnel to infiltrate, and secretly controlled wealthy businessmen, factory owners, and gang leaders in Suzhou according to the pre-registered list.After the fall of Suzhou, the special gendarmes of the special high school entered immediately and sealed up all the property of the target person and the property of the former Suzhou government. After detailed inspection and price verification, they were registered one by one, and they were ready to be shipped to Shanghai. They boarded a ship in Shanghai and transported them all to the mainland of Japan, where they were included in the emperor's private collection.The main one is gold, and there are also some cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings.It is this batch of gold that Yazawa Shinichi wants to escort.

At present, the secret stronghold of the special military police is in the former Huasheng Paper Mill in Suzhou.This used to be a well-known national enterprise in Suzhou. After the fall of Suzhou, it became the pocket of the super high school. The gold is currently temporarily hidden in the warehouse here.

The news of the delivery of bulk cargo has spread, and Yazawa Shinichi has also arranged a convoy as a cover, waiting for his order to leave at any time.Yazawa Shinichi looked at the neatly piled gold ingots all over the room, and his expression remained calm, "How is the situation outside now?"

The leader of the Suzhou Special Gendarmerie replied: "After the news spread, the Chinese people were ready to make a move, but mainly the forces in Shanghai and Hangzhou, including the local gangs. Judging from the current situation, they just waited and watched and did not dare to take action. On the contrary. There has been no movement from the Chongqing government in China."

Yazawa was a little surprised. This was somewhat different from what he had expected. His original intention was to lure out those hidden anti-Japanese organizations, and hand them over to the local Japanese army in Suzhou to wipe them out. It was transported to Shanghai without interest. In this way, the delivery task was completed and the anti-Japanese elements were hit. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

But now, Yazawa was a little disappointed that only a few little mice were brought out who wanted to steal oil.The current situation made him feel a bit stuck, should he escort the gold to the road immediately, or wait until later?Yazawa hesitated.

……

"Fatty man, are you so full that you have nothing to do, and you still plan on these unknown products!" Lin Xiaotang cursed angrily when he saw Fatty Shen.

Fatty Shen laughed with him, let Lin Xiaotang and others into the wing room of his hidden small courtyard, and ordered a few of his men to go outside to watch the wind, pour tea for Lin Xiaotang and others respectfully, Huoyan and Guo Zhui looked at him Look, giggling endlessly.

Lin Xiaotang suppressed his laughter, and continued to keep a straight face, "Will you go by yourself, or let me tie you up and send you directly to the train? Choose yourself!"

Fatty Shen sat next to Lin Xiaotang, with a serious expression on his face, "Seventh Young Master, I am not the kind of person who wants money and life as you imagined. You explained this to me before, and I understand what you said. He is also a self-aware person, he will not do things that are not sure, and he has discovered a new situation, and he is ready to investigate more in detail!"

Speaking of Fatty Shen, he gave a thumbs up, "Your Seventh Young Master is still a good friend. When you heard that I was in danger, you were the first to come to help. Just focus on this, and I, Fatty Shen, will convince you!"

Lin Xiaotang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and waved his hand, "Don't put a high hat on me, pack up your things and go back to Shanghai with me, this matter is not easy, we can't get involved!"

Fatty Shen hurriedly pressed his hand, "That's impossible, Seventh Young Master, since you're here, you have to let me explain the matter clearly. It's not too late for you to worry about it after listening!"

It turned out that Fatty Shen was not concentrating on planning to snatch this batch of goods in Suzhou these days, but carefully focused on inquiring about the origin of this batch of goods and the truth behind them.Fatty Shen is not stupid, but he is a curious person by nature. The more this batch of goods is concealed, the more interested he is, but he will not be like ordinary Jianghu people who are stupid and ready to rob. After finding out the details of the batch of goods, he, Fatty Shen, would not just rush forward so foolishly.

Fatty Shen's tenet is: the more money the better, but for money of unknown origin, it's best to inquire about it, wash it clean, and put it in your pocket, so that you can spend it with confidence.

Ever since, he and a few of his confidantes started the so-called investigation on their own without going through the eyes of the Qing Gang.In fact, there is no need to investigate. The whole Jianghu now knows that there is a batch of valuable goods in Suzhou that are going on the road. All the gang brothers are gathered near a warehouse in the south of the city. It is difficult not to know.

Seeing this situation, Fatty Shen muttered, he and Lin Xiaotang have been working together for not a day or two, even if they have never eaten pork, they have seen how pigs walk.Lin Xiaotang loves to ask why, he has learned a lot from him.He immediately felt that this matter was not simple, but it seemed to be a big fanfare, attracting people to peep. Fatty Shen immediately stopped, found a hidden place to hide, and began to secretly investigate the news.

For this reason, he kept a close eye on a shopkeeper of this warehouse, because this shopkeeper is one of the few people who often go out in the entire warehouse, and Fatty Shen always feels that this shopkeeper is a bit speechless during the process of secretly observing. a feeling of.It wasn't until one day that he personally followed the shopkeeper and saw him greet others that he suddenly realized.

When this shopkeeper talks to others, he always bows his head involuntarily. Chinese people also have the habit of bowing their heads to say hello, but this shopkeeper is obviously different. He always bows his head very hard, and often bows his waist straight. In a word, you have to lower your head twice in a row. In this way, it is obviously different from the Chinese habit of bending and bowing your head.

Fatty Shen was frightened into a cold sweat by his discovery. Could this be Japanese?He was very glad that he didn't rush to be the first bird, and he acted first. Looking at the situation, if it was really a trap set by the Japanese devils, then don't worry about small fish and shrimps. Under the nest, there will be eggs!

Lin Xiaotang was also taken aback by Fatty Shen's deduction, "Are you sure?"

Fatty Shen curled his lips, "Seventh Young Master, I am in the catering business, and I have seen a lot of Japanese people of all kinds, all Japanese have this problem, their heads are lowered like grandchildren, but their backs are straight , unless you are his boss or elder, then you will bend down, I know this very clearly."

Fatty Shen spread his hands: "Okay, I've finished speaking, how about I go back to Shanghai with you?" As he spoke, his eyes raised.

"Don't be too busy!" Lin Xiaotang was not in a hurry, "If it's about the Japanese, it would be interesting, don't let it go and ask more questions, and see why the little devil came to play such a big battle!"

Fatty Shen chuckled, and suddenly felt a sense of pride in the success of his scheme, "I knew it, you must be motivated when you get involved in this matter!"

"Who does this shopkeeper usually contact with?"

Fatty Shen patted his stomach proudly, "I've checked everything out. This guy is in charge of purchasing. He usually goes to vegetable markets, grain stores and other places. So I followed all the way and soon discovered a problem."

"what is the problem?"

"There are a few people who often appear in these stores at the same time as him. We also followed up secretly and found an interesting thing. No matter how many times these people have gone around the city or where they have been, Wherever we settled down, there used to be a meeting point. Huasheng Paper Factory!"

Lin Xiaotang looked at Fatty Shen in disbelief, "Okay, Brother Fatty, you've learned this!"

Lin Xiaotang then asked: "Then are you sure that Huasheng Paper Factory is a Japanese place?"

Fatty Shen scratched his head embarrassingly, "Sorry, I haven't thought of how to check yet?"

Lin Xiaotang immediately vented his enthusiasm, "I just praised you, so I just came here, stupid, go, go now, I will teach you another trick!"

……

In a three-story residential house opposite the Huasheng Paper Factory, this is the yard that Fatty Shen had let his subordinates rent quietly earlier.Through the gaps in the curtains, the entire paper factory was pitch-black, only some lights were flickering in the factory building behind. At the gatehouse, a few men squatted or sat, but their eyes were obviously looking at the movement around them all the time.

"I came to see it too, but I felt that the guards were very strict, so I didn't dare to sneak in rashly." Fatty Shen said to Lin Xiaotang who was observing with a telescope.

Lin Xiaotang watched intently, "Fortunately, you didn't go in. I found three observation posts on the roof in a short time, and they might be snipers!"

"Ah!" Fatty Shen opened his mouth wide, "My mother, this is really the stronghold of Little Japan!"

"Not sure yet, we need to do an experiment!" Lin Xiaotang handed the binoculars to Huoyan, turned around and whispered something to Guo Zhui, who hurried downstairs.

Fatty Shen stared blankly, not knowing why.

In less than half an hour, several cars with the Suzhou Police Station attached roared up.

The policemen in black uniforms got out of the car and rushed into the paper factory aggressively, but were stopped by a few men in the gatehouse. The policemen had just raised their guns, and a dozen people ran out of the yard, looking at the paper factory without fear. They, however, refused to give way.

After a while, the crowd divided, and a man walked out, flashing the ID in his hand at the police leader.The policeman suddenly lost his aura just now, bowed his head and saluted. After the man said a few words, he waved his hand in disgust. The policemen climbed into the car as if they were being pardoned, and ran away in a hurry.

A few minutes later, Guo chased upstairs, "I see clearly, the ID they showed was from the Japanese Gendarmerie, the leader told the police that they were stationed here to carry out secret missions, and threatened the police to keep their mouths shut, or they would all be shot! , They all have guys on them, and they don't look like ordinary devil soldiers!"

"It's that simple? How did you find out?" Fatty Shen still didn't understand.

"The boss ordered me to call the police, saying that someone in the paper factory was hiding arms! I suspect they are anti-Japanese elements!" Guo Zhui replied flatly.

Lin Xiaotang raised his eyebrows at the astonished fat man, "Boy, learn a little bit!"
