Chapter 158, Hit It Off (asking for monthly tickets)
On the afternoon of January 24, 1959, in a very ordinary hotel room in Osaka, Zhao Mancang, Zhang Jinfu, Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong were sitting face to face on the bed. The atmosphere was a bit weird.

After leaving the airport, the four took a taxi to this hotel and directly asked for two standard rooms.

But when they checked in, all four of them entered the same room.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Jinfu introduced the identities of Pan Chengdong and Zuo Changsheng to Zhao Mancang.

Pan Chengdong is Zhang Jinfu's comrade-in-arms and is currently in the 108th Department, while Zuo Changsheng is the former's colleague.

This time, the 108th Department and the Special Operations Department jointly carried out the mission, which means that Zhang Jinfu and the other three were acting together.

Zhao Mancang didn't know the specific details of the mission because Zhang Jinfu didn't tell him.

At the same time, Pan Chengdong and Zuo Changsheng also learned of Zhao Mancang's identity, and then asked to see Zhao Mancang's true face.

The latter naturally didn't care, and then took off all his disguises in front of Zhang Jinfu and the other three.

When Pan Chengdong and the other three saw the cosmetic contact lenses, nose pad wax and mud that Zhao Mancang had taken off, they were stunned.

So this is how you transform from a yellow person to a white person?

How did colored contact lenses come about? Where did Zhao Mancang buy them?

Contact lenses are not available in China. There are some abroad, but not many.

It was not until 1954 that Hungarian ophthalmologist Enno Spüner invented a contact lens made of methyl methacrylate, and it was not until the 1960s that it became truly popular.

Even contact lenses had not become popular yet, so it was even less likely that cosmetic contact lenses would appear.

Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong had some doubts about the materials used by Zhao Mancang, but they did not raise them on the spot.

It was not until Zhang Jinfu proposed that Zhao Mancang join the 108th Department that Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong raised doubts.

It is not about questioning Zhao Mancang's ability, but about questioning whether Zhao Mancang can execute orders.

why?
As early as October 20th last year, before Zhang Jinfu went to recommend Zhao Mancang, he had introduced Zhao Mancang to Pan Chengdong.

At that time, Zhao Mancang was able to kill five KGB agents single-handedly and find two KGB drivers hiding in a car on the side of the road.

In addition, Zhao Mancang himself is a very good doctor. If such a person joins the 108th Department, it will definitely be a great addition.

Unlike the special operations department, the 108th Department is specifically for external affairs, so it needs to frequently carry out missions outside.

The risks outside are higher and there are more uncontrollable factors.

Even if you are injured, it is difficult to find a hospital for treatment.

However, if you have teammates like Zhao Mancang, the logistical support will be very stable, and everyone can be more relaxed when performing tasks.

Secondly, Zhao Mancang’s previous experience in Moscow once again fully proved that Zhao Mancang’s ability is absolutely top-notch.

According to information, Zhao Mancang disappeared after a major avalanche, and then miraculously appeared on a plane from Hong Kong and Kowloon to Osaka.

How did he avoid the KGB's attention and appear in Hong Kong and Kowloon openly?
At the same time, what was his purpose in going to Osaka?

All of this made Pan Chengdong and Zuo Changsheng hesitant.

"Captain Zhang, I don't want to join the 108th Department."

Zhao Mancang spoke, and as soon as he said this, Zhang Jinfu interrupted him anxiously, while Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong were angry.

My goodness, neither of them has agreed whether to let Zhao Mancang participate in the assessment of the 108th Department, but the latter is disgusted with it.

This made them both very angry.

What kind of existence is 108?
Not to mention the specific level, just those who can join the 108 departments are all at the level of the best soldiers in the army.

There are only twelve people in the entire 108th Department. You can imagine how high the requirements of this department are for all new members.

If they weren't too picky, how could there be only twelve people?
"Comrade Zhao Mancang, you have no way out now. Think about your wife and what you did in Moscow before."

Zhang Jinfu comforted Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong with one hand, and hurriedly persuaded Zhao Mancang with the other.

The latter also got angry when he heard this:

"What happened to me in Moscow? There was a big avalanche and no one came to rescue me. Why should I go back and obey their orders? If they hadn't kept asking me to go to Moscow and go hunting, how could so many things have happened?"

"If my wife wasn't pregnant, I would have definitely come after them, humph!"

Hearing what Zhao Mancang said, Zhang Jinfu immediately said:
"Comrade Zhao Mancang, your case is actually quite minor. If you were in the 108th Department, you wouldn't be in this situation at all. Even if you turned Moscow upside down, I don't think anyone would say anything to you."

"Really? If I join Department 108 now, can I overthrow Department 108? And then you can help me clean up my mess?"

Zhao Mancang stared at Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong and said suspiciously.

Assuming that Zhang Jinfu's statement is true, then Zhao Mancang is really tempted.

After all, his current condition is not very good and he can't take care of Lin Wan.

Although he has also established a newspaper company in Hong Kong and Kowloon, he is surrounded by wolves and has no foundation. He seems to have curryed favor with Alex Redmayne, a senior inspector who is considered a rising star in the police force, but isn't the other party also a hungry wolf?

Human greed is inevitable, and it is difficult to satisfy people. No matter if they are wealthy, powerful, or saints, they are essentially the same.

In Hong Kong and Kowloon, Zhao Mancang did not dare to reveal his identity as a doctor, because he could not entrust his life to the Governor of Hong Kong and Kowloon and others, right?
Besides, if his identity as a doctor is leaked, the KGB will definitely come to his door.

How will Zhao Mancang ensure the safety of Lin Wan and the others at that time?

Therefore, it would be better for Lin Wan and the others to stay in the capital, because after the middle of next year, the KGB and others will completely leave the capital.

By then, no matter how Zhao Mancang makes trouble in Moscow, Prokhot Rublev and others will not be able to do anything to Zhao Mancang.

In addition, even if the KGB did not come, if people like Sam, William, and Louis had any difficult and complicated illnesses and asked Zhao Mancang to diagnose them, would he go or not?
Therefore, the best outcome is that Lin Wan and the others stay in the capital, and as long as Lin Wan and the others' safety is guaranteed, Zhao Mancang will have no worries and can fight for revenge on the front line.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the 108 departments can really clean up his mess, otherwise, everything is nonsense.

"Have your spring and autumn dreams!"

Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong refused directly.

It’s just because Zhao Mancang is obviously not a very obedient person, and he has never been a soldier, so it is impossible for him to engrave the words "obey orders" into his bones.

Zhang Jinfu suddenly felt overwhelmed. Could these three people not be so impulsive?

Can't we just talk it out? Why do we have to argue?

So, Pan Chengdong and Zuo Changsheng were kicked out of the room, leaving only Zhang Jinfu and Zhao Mancang.

An hour later, Zhao Mancang, persuaded by Zhang Jinfu, finally made up his mind to join the 108th Department.

There are many reasons. In addition to the fact that Lin Wan and the others' safety are guaranteed after joining the 108th Department, the 108th Department can really clean up Zhao Mancang's mess.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that if Zhao Mancang caused any trouble himself, the 108 departments will clean up his mess without any punishment.

In addition, Zhao Mancang believes that there is another extremely important point, that is, the relative ease and freedom in the 108 departments.

Another point is that you can travel freely to the transit point of Hong Kong and Kowloon frequently.

Because the tasks performed by the 108 departments are all external, most of the time when they go out to perform tasks, they need to depart from Hong Kong and Kowloon.

This is very good for Zhao Mancang.

It’s just because he still needs to rely on the "Hong Kong and Kowloon Daily" to earn more experience points for him.

Realizing the importance of experience, Zhao Mancang naturally developed great interest in the Hong Kong and Kowloon Daily, or in other words, starting a business in Hong Kong and Kowloon.

Considering the above points, Zhao Mancang is of course happy to join the 108th Department.

After persuading Zhao Mancang, Zhang Jinfu got up and went next door to persuade Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong.

At this moment, Zhang Jinfu was no longer worried that Zhao Mancang would leave suddenly, unless the latter really didn't want his wife anymore.

Besides, Zhang Jinfu is not a fool, how could he be completely unprepared?
In less than five minutes, Zhang Jinfu and the other two returned to the room.

Zuo Changsheng said to Zhao Mancang with a cold face:

"If you want to join our 108th Department, you must take our assessment. The most important point, the most crucial point, is to obey orders. If you can't do that, then you'd better give up this idea as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Zhao Mancang knew that the other party still cared about him and thought that he could not obey the orders of his superiors.

And from this sentence, it can also be seen that Zuo Changsheng and others have no doubts about Zhao Mancang's ability.

"Comrade Zuo, I am willing to obey orders, but I should also obey orders that require my death, right?"

"Of course, soldiers must obey orders as their first principle. This is non-negotiable."

Zuo Changsheng immediately responded seriously:
"And what you said is not true. We can't let you die for no reason. We don't have such a bad apple in our 108th department."

Zuo Changsheng almost couldn't hold back his anger at the fact that Zhao Mancang was still bargaining here until this time.

Before Zhao Mancang, who wanted to join the 108 departments without being respectful?
Only Zhao Mancang is picky!
If it weren't for Zhang Jinfu's strong recommendation, and if the 108th Department really needed someone like Zhao Mancang to join, Zuo Changsheng would not have said so much nonsense.

"Alright then, Comrade Zuo, what assessment do I need to take?"

Zhao Mancang nodded and stopped talking nonsense.

The current situation does not allow him to be picky anymore.

The 108th Department needs talents like Zhao Mancang, who is agile and has excellent medical skills, and Zhao Mancang also needs a backer like the 108th Department to protect himself.

The two sides can be said to be very complementary and hit it off immediately!
"Don't worry, you still need to wait two days until you get the notification from above."

Hearing what Zuo Changsheng said, Zhao Mancang had no choice but to nod.

No. 108 Communications Station, China Resources Company, Tin Wah Road, Central, Hong Kong & Kowloon.

There are only twelve people in the entire 108th Department, which is beyond doubt, but there are several communication stations serving the 108th Department, and Hong Kong and Kowloon is one of the most important communication stations.

When the communication station received the message from Zuo Changsheng, they were immediately stunned. Zhao Mancang? He wanted to apply to join the 108th Department?
The news was quickly reported up the chain through the Hong Kong and Kowloon Communications Station. By the time it returned to the capital, it was already the 26th.

Of course, the communication of letters was not that fast, because Zuo Changsheng needed to explain the news in detail, and it was impossible for him to just report it casually with a few words.

No. 8, Guozi Lane, Luoma Street, Siheyuan, 108 Headquarters, morning of the 26th.

"Wow, Changsheng and the others actually met Comrade Zhao Mancang? This is really unexpected!"

Wei Huayong looked at the telegram in front of him with a smile, his eyes flashing.

Wei Huayong certainly knew the information about Zhao Mancang.

Zhang Jinfu recommended it once in October last year, so Wei Huayong also paid attention to Zhao Mancang.

In the following months, Wei Huayong heard Zhao Mancang's name several times.

Especially in the past month, Zhao Mancang was buried alive by a huge avalanche in Moscow. He was surrounded and pursued by the KGB in Moscow, but he managed to break out of the encirclement and then disappeared.

According to the KGB's speculation, Zhao Mancang was definitely not dead, but had found a place to hide.

But no one expected that Zhao Mancang would appear on the plane from Hong Kong and Kowloon to Osaka, and he actually planned to fly from Osaka to Seoul, and then from Seoul to Bohai.
Wei Huayong really didn't know whether to say that Zhao Mancang was a smart man or a fool. How could he come up with such a stupid idea?
Why don't you take the right path, but have to go the crooked way?
"That's right!"

As the director of the 108th Department, Wei Huayong would certainly not refuse Zhao Mancang's joining.

There is no need to elaborate on the latter's deeds. Such a person with extraordinary abilities should join the 108 departments instead of being left wandering around.

As for what Zhao Mancang caused in Moscow, it was not a big deal at all.

Wei Huayong was of course very clear about the situation of those people in Moscow. In the past one or two years, people like Khrushchev had done a lot of bad things because of the long-wave power station.

Therefore, what Zhao Mancang did in Moscow was quite satisfying for Wei Huayong.

After replying to Zuo Changsheng, Wei Huayong suddenly thought of something, so he got up and went to Lingjing Hutong to report on his work.

In the afternoon, in the director's office of the I-shaped building on Ministry of Foreign Affairs Street, Qi Zhengze heard someone knocking on the door and answered without raising his head, "Come in."

When the visitor came in, Qi Zhengze hurriedly stood up and greeted him respectfully.

"Comrade Xiao Qi, let me tell you, you still need to notify Comrade Zhao Mancang's family."

After hearing what his leader said, Qi Zhengze was completely numb.

My goodness, he and Pei Yimin had just been to Zhao Mancang's house in the morning and told Lin Wan about Zhao Mancang's sacrifice.

But now at this time in the afternoon, the leader tells me that Zhao Mancang is not dead?
The leader did not reveal the specific information, but the news that Zhao Mancang was still alive was explosive enough.

Moreover, how could it be so absurd to tell Lin Wan about this matter in such a way as to change one's mind every day?
But this was a task assigned by the leader, and Qi Zhengze could only obey and do it.

In the evening, Lin Wan and Zhang Dongyue, mother and daughter, had just returned home from Union Hospital. Lin Huijun's stomach was growling with hunger. Lin Wan wanted to busy herself with cooking, but her mother pushed her down on a chair in the living room.

"The doctor told you to rest well, why won't you listen? Let me do the cooking, ah."

"Grandma, I'll go help you!"

Lin Huijun also agreed sensibly. After seeing her grandmother nod with a smile, she said to her mother:
"Mom, you have to rest well. I'm grown up now and I can help you."

The little guy's acting like a little adult made Lin Wan burst out laughing.

Lin Wan felt very relieved when she saw the little girl following her grandmother to work in the kitchen in the front yard.

But soon, she thought of Zhao Mancang again, and her heart began to ache involuntarily.

At this moment, the barking of dogs Dahei and Xiaohei was heard in the front yard, followed soon by Zhang Dongyue's exclamation.

This made Lin Wan unable to think about anything else. She hurriedly got up and went to the front yard, but Qi Zhengze had already walked quickly into the backyard.

In the living room, Zhang Dongyue and Lin Huijun were arranged to go to the front yard, leaving only Lin Wan and Qi Zhengze.

The latter looked seriously at Lin Wan who was sitting opposite him and said:
"Comrade Lin Wan, I just received the latest news. Comrade Zhao Mancang has not died, but this information must be kept confidential."

Crunch!

Lin Wan was so shocked that she stood up, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise and disbelief, and her breathing became rapid.

"Director Qi, is this true? But didn't you just..."

This news was too horrifying and hard for her to believe. How could a person who had clearly died be resurrected?
She was not cursing her man, but the news announced by Qi Zhengze really made her dumbfounded, and for a moment she didn't know whether to believe it or not.

Qi Zhengze nodded seriously and said:
"I can tell you responsibly that this news is true. It won't be long before Comrade Zhao Mancang returns. Then you'll know whether what I said is true or not."

"Comrade Zhao Mancang is indeed very lucky, but that's all in the past. He's still alive, but he can't come back right away. Also, Comrade Lin Wan, for the safety of Comrade Zhao Mancang and your family, please keep it a secret and maintain the status quo. Don't even tell your parents."

When Lin Wan heard this, the smart girl immediately thought of something, nodded immediately, and repeatedly assured herself that she would not leak it out.

At this moment, her eyes were filled with tears, she was so excited.

Today was full of twists and turns, making her mood fluctuate.

Fortunately, I can finally put my heart at ease now.

Qi Zhengze did not continue chatting. After reminding Lin Wan three times to keep it a secret, he left Zhao Mancang's house.

As soon as Qi Zhengze left, Zhang Dongyue immediately came over to ask Lin Wan what was going on.
The latter naturally did not reveal the news and just said a few words and sent him away.

In fact, as far as the current matter is concerned, Lin Wan didn't want to hide it from her mother, but since Director Qi said so, she certainly couldn't help but carry it out seriously.

On the other side, Osaka.

Upon receiving the notice, Zuo Changsheng immediately informed Zhao Mancang of the specific assessment content. "All subsequent personnel joining the 108 departments will undergo rigorous assessments, but your situation is different this time. Therefore, some of the assessments can be postponed until you return to the capital. Now, cooperate with us to complete this mission."

When Zhao Mancang heard this, his expression suddenly became strange.

He hasn't even joined the 108th Department yet, but he's already carrying out his mission.

"Comrade Mancang, let me explain to you the objectives of our mission this time."

Zhang Jinfu said with a smile at this time, and Zhao Mancang immediately listened carefully.

Based on Zhang Jinfu's statement, Zhao Mancang finally understood the specific situation and understood why Zhang Jinfu, the captain of the special operations department, went out on a mission with Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong.

The cause of the incident has to start with a case that Zhang Jinfu and his team had dealt with before.

After liberation, Zhang Jinfu was transferred to the special operations department, specifically responsible for combating enemy spies. At that time, when he was still an ordinary team member, he had already followed up on the case of the small fry nicknamed White Rose.

At first, Zhang Jinfu thought that Bai Meigui was just a small fry, but he didn't expect that this person was involved in several major cases, and Bai Meigui herself was not a small fry either, she actually had three subordinates.

What Zhang Jinfu found most unbelievable was that at the last moment, Bai Meigui faked her own death and escaped.

Now, several years have passed, and Zhang Jinfu is still brooding over this matter.

Until some time ago, the team led by Zhang Jinfu solved another case.

There is a very important clue in this case, that is, Bai Meigui is currently hiding in Kimura Osaka and giving remote control.

In addition, White Rose itself was also involved in the case of the whereabouts of the two tons of gold.

Logically speaking, since White Rose has already arrived in Osaka, the task of capturing White Rose should be handed over to the 108 departments.

But Bai Meigui was a very cunning person. Zhang Jinfu and his men had not been able to catch her successfully, and the 108 departments might not be able to do so either.

What's more, White Rose is now in Osaka, where she is like a fish in water.

Therefore, Zhang Jinfu, who was familiar with Bai Meigui's crimes, was sent here to carry out the mission together with Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong.

Zhao Mancang was also very angry after hearing this.

It was mainly because of the commotion caused by Bai Meigui in 1953, which resulted in the death of several cows.

According to the case in 1953 cited by Zhang Jinfu, Zhao Mancang had just joined the steel plant not long ago. When the people instructed by Bai Meigui took action, the steel plant lost five cows and five ox carts.

At that time, there were only a few cows in the steel plant, and five of them were killed by the other party.

Later, Xing Shuqi and his team transferred a few horses from other units. Horses require careful feeding and naturally cannot be taken care of as simply as cows, so Zhao Mancang was exhausted during that period.

In addition to the fact that this matter is related to Zhao Mancang, Bai Meigui also deserves to be killed.

Although this person hid behind the scenes and did not kill many people with her own hands, many people were killed or injured because of her.

Therefore, Zhao Mancang expressed his position on the next action: follow orders!
However, they encountered a problem at the beginning because Bai Meigui did not use the telegraph frequently, and Zhang Jinfu and his team could only sit and wait. There was no other good way to locate Bai Meigui.

"Captain Zhang, can I have a word?"

On the morning of the 28th, before departure, Zhao Mancang suddenly spoke.

In the past two days, they have been working in pairs, driving through the streets and alleys of Osaka, which is a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack.

With a machine like this, how could it be possible that White Rose happened to use the telegraph to send a message?

The probability of accidental occurrence is too high.

"What do you want to say?"

Zuo Changsheng, Zhang Jinfu and Pan Chengdong looked at Zhao Mancang and were somewhat unhappy with what he said, because they thought Zhao Mancang was planning to be lazy.

"I think our method is too inefficient, and we may not be able to find the white rose. Why not see if there is another way?"

"What solution do you want to use?" Zhang Jinfu asked curiously after hearing this.

"Captain Zhang, didn't you say before that you knew Bai Meigui very well? You've been monitoring her for nearly a year and a half, so you must be familiar with her every move. Her living habits and eating habits should be very clear to you, right?"

Hearing what Zhao Mancang said, Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong remained silent, while Zhang Jinfu frowned and asked:

"You mean by looking for it through the other person's habits?"

"That's right. People's eating habits are difficult to change. For example, if someone likes shrimp, they will definitely buy shrimp frequently or eat at restaurants that cook shrimp."

After a pause, Zhao Mancang continued:

"Besides this, he should have many other habits. We can analyze and summarize these habits, and then investigate them in batches."

Habits are actually very difficult to change no matter what environment you change into.

Especially for an agent, many behavioral habits have to be abandoned because of work, but some habits will definitely be retained.

Although Zhao Mancang's method is not completely effective, it is much better than the current situation, where he is running around like a headless fly and looking for a needle in a haystack.

Zhang Jinfu's eyes lit up and he blurted out immediately:

"I know Bai Meigui likes chili peppers. It can be said that she can't live without spicy food. She also used to love steamed buns and soy milk."

After hearing the other party's words, Zhao Mancang pondered in silence.

After Zhang Jinfu finished speaking, Zhao Mancang spoke:
"There aren't many bun shops in Osaka, especially breakfast shops, so we can start with this one and lock down the general area."

"But when looking for a bun shop, we need to be careful. We can't just go there directly to avoid alerting the suspect. We need to think of a way. Um, spend some money and entrust an agent to help us find it. They must be most familiar with bun shops in Osaka."

Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong nodded in satisfaction after hearing this. It seemed that Zhao Mancang was not only very skilled in martial arts, but also had a very useful brain.

Ordinary people may not be able to come up with a method like Zhao Mancang did. Even professionals like Zuo Changsheng have not thought of this.

Although it is still uncertain whether the method Zhao Mancang proposed will work, Zhang Jinfu, Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong are all looking forward to it.

Half a day later, Zhao Mancang and the other three met up at an agency because the other party had helped them find a bun shop.

Right near Chinatown is a Goubuli steamed bun shop that specializes in breakfast.

When the four of them arrived at the nearby streets, they were indeed dumbfounded, because there was a large flow of people nearby, which meant that there were quite a few people living nearby.

There are not many bun shops in Osaka, but Zhao Mancang and his team have ruled out other bun shops, and the one in Chinatown is the most likely one.

"This should be a bustling urban area with a large population. This also shows that Bai Meigui probably enjoys the hustle and bustle, or perhaps she's someone who really understands the concept of 'hiding in the city'."

Zuo Changsheng sighed and said that it felt a bit tricky. It seemed that finding the white rose was still a bit difficult.

"Comrade Zhao Mancang, do you have any other plans?"

Zhao Mancang heard this and shook his head honestly:

"I've tried my best. I can't think of any other way to lock it in a place like this. Unless Captain Zhang continues to talk about other habits of this White Rose, I'll see if I can analyze any useful information."

It is already very difficult to lock onto a place based on habit, and this is based on the premise that White Rose is careless and does not change this habit. Otherwise, it is very likely that all efforts will be in vain.

Because for some top agents, any habit may change.

It was even said that when Bai Meigui was in Beijing, she had this habit because she was deliberately putting on a show for Zhang Jinfu and the others.

Of course, White Rose has already escaped and is temporarily settling in Osaka, so perhaps she won't be so vigilant anymore.

Zhang Jinfu nodded when he heard this, and then told her every detail he knew about White Rose's habits.

Zhao Mancang, Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong each recorded these and began to analyze them one by one.

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the telegraph machine that had been turned on, which instantly made Zuo Changsheng, Zhang Jinfu and Pan Chengdong excited.

Looking at Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong who couldn't wait to put on headphones to eavesdrop, Zhao Mancang remained calm and didn't say a word.

Zhang Jinfu, who was sitting in the driver's seat next to him, started driving the car around.

After a while, Zhang Jinfu stopped in front of a building as Zuo Changsheng and the others called out.

This building is an independent house with a wooden structure and three floors.

Before Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong could say anything, Zhao Mancang suddenly said, "It seems like someone is watching us from behind. Could it be one of their sentries?"

"Let's go!" Zuo Changsheng said quickly, and Zhang Jinfu also stepped on the accelerator, immediately maintaining the previous speed and slowly leaving.

It was not until this time that Zhao Mancang saw the person in the rearview mirror, retracted his gaze and looked elsewhere.

Therefore, it is now almost certain that it is the small building just now.

The four of them did not dare to delay and prepared to monitor every move of the building nearby.

They watched from two directions, one in front and one behind, to prevent White Rose from escaping.

It's still afternoon now, so it's not a good idea to arrest people. We have to wait until night.

Time passed minute by minute, and there was no movement in the three-story building. The person that Zhao Mancang had discovered before kept walking back and forth in that position.

After confirming with each other's eyes, they knew that this was the person they were looking for.

As the sun sets in the west, darkness shrouds the earth and the sky over the city gradually darkens, but it is not completely dark.

Although Osaka's economy is not doing well and has not yet started to rise, there are still some lights illuminating the city sky at night.

Zhao Mancang and the other three couldn't wait any longer and went straight into the three-story building to arrest people.

To ensure that everything is safe, the four people were not allowed to fire their guns when entering the three-story building.

Because a place like a three-story building is most likely just a stopover and there is no chance of big fish there.

Although White Rose may already be a big fish, what about the financial backers behind it?

If no one supported White Rose, how could she have been so successful?
Also, let’s see if we can dig out who the leader of the White Rose is.

Zhao Mancang entered the room in the dark, his eyes widened. The first floor was a very ordinary living area, with the layout of an ordinary house.

It was already 11 o'clock in the evening and many people were already asleep, so if there was no bedroom on the first floor, it must be on the second or third floor.

I went up the stairs to the second floor and finally found the bedroom.

There were three people in total, and they were knocked unconscious by Zhao Mancang and others in an instant.

Nothing unexpected happened, and Zuo Changsheng and the others were delighted. However, Zhang Jinfu frowned and indicated that there was no sign of Bai Meigui among the two women among the three.

hiss!
Could it be that White Rose is on the third floor?

Zhao Mancang and the others continued to go up to the third floor, which turned out to be an office with all the necessary facilities such as radios, but there was no one there.

What?

The white rose seems to have disappeared again!
The only thing that can be confirmed is that these three people are indeed the people Zhang Jinfu and his team are looking for, but Bai Meigui is obviously not in this small building, or she should be nearby.

Now they have alerted the enemy, so they can't delay any longer.

Right now, the only people who can help Zuo Changsheng and the others find a breakthrough in White Rose are the three people who were just captured.

So, Zhang Jinfu, Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong entered the room separately to interrogate the three people, while Zhao Mancang became the lookout.

An hour and a half later, Zuo Changsheng and the other two compared the results of each other's interrogation, and then compared them, and finally determined the current location of Bai Meigui.

Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong both know Japanese, and for this reason alone, they are indeed remarkable talents.

Without further ado, the four threw the three people into the car and left.

After all, the three-story building is someone else's territory, and killing people there is definitely not an option, because Bai Meigui has not been found yet. Who knows if these three people have provided false confessions?

So let's save the lives of these three people first and deal with them later after we find the White Rose.

Less than 500 meters away from the three-story building, Zhao Mancang and his team stopped the car. After making sure that the three people in the car had been tied up, they set out to capture Bai Meigui.

Bai Meigui lives in a two-story house nearby, not facing the street.

When Zhao Mancang and the other three arrived near the house and saw that the power was still on, they looked at each other in confusion and then chose to launch a forced attack.

It's already early morning and you haven't slept yet. There must be something strange going on.

Anyway, don’t worry about it for now, just catch the person first.

The four of them cooperated and after entering the first floor, they saw two people inside who were sending telegrams.

Baimeigui Ito Saki and Umekawa Kuchako reacted immediately and drew their guns to shoot, but they were not as quick as Zhao Mancang.

Zhao Mancang's flying knife had already pierced the arms of Bai Meigui and the other person, and Zuo Changsheng and the others then opened fire.

By the time their bullets were fired, White Rose Ito Saki and Umekawa Kuchako had already fallen down, having perfectly avoided the bullets.

But at this time, Zhao Mancang had already stepped forward, and with one knife and one strike, two silver needles were quickly launched at the same time, making Bai Meigui and the other person lose the ability to move in an instant.

Zuo Changsheng, Zhang Jinfu and Pan Chengdong were all very surprised, but they did not say anything. Instead, they cooperated and walked to the second floor.

There were only people on the second floor, a middle-aged man with a big belly and a plump, pretty woman, who were playing a shameful game.

In no time, the middle-aged man and the plump woman were both taken down.

After taking them down, Zhao Mancang and the other three didn't stay for long. They immediately threw Bai Meigui and the other four into the car and drove away.

Because a shot had just been fired, it would definitely alarm the nearby neighbors, and someone might have already called the police.

Soon, Zhao Mancang and the other three returned to the temporary building they rented in Osaka.

Whether it was Zuo Changsheng and his group or Zhao Mancang himself, the four of them were tourists visiting Osaka.

Staying in a hotel is the best option, but they are not really here to have fun, but to catch people.

Therefore, they must find a room that is well hidden and convenient for travel, and renting a house becomes their best choice.

They even rented the car, so they had enough funds for the activities.

Besides, as long as the mission is completed and the two tons of gold that White Rose took away are successfully found, then the merit will be fulfilled.

What followed was another very boring interrogation session, and Zhao Mancang was still the one who was on the lookout because he didn't speak Japanese.

In fact, it’s not that he can’t speak Japanese. He still understands simple words like Yamedie, Baka, and Neon Pot, but it’s of no use.

Zhang Jinfu also came out of the bedroom quickly. There was some blood on his face. He came to Zhao Mancang and said with a smile:

"Mancang, you are really good at fighting. Our gun speed is not as fast as your throwing knife speed."

If Zhao Mancang had not quickly drawn his knife, Zhang Jinfu and the other three would most likely have been shot.

Bai Meigui's reaction speed is absolutely first-class, and Meichuan Kuchazi is also a first-class agent. They both have very fast reaction speeds.

"Captain Zhang, you're too modest. Even without me, you can definitely deal with these people."

Zhao Mancang said modestly, but Zhang Jinfu shook his head and continued:

"If it weren't for the habit solution you proposed, we would still be searching everywhere like headless flies, not like now."

The two chatted for a while, and Zuo Changsheng and Pan Chengdong also came out. They finally found out about the financial backer behind White Rose and where the gold went downstairs.
