Chapter 249: Shanghai Storm (Part 14) I still have the final say in the Ming family (Part ) (Return to the main story tomorrow)

The next morning, it was still dawn.

Minglou appeared downstairs of Wang Manchun's villa.

"Senior brother, why are you here so early?" Wang Manchun was originally very angry about getting up, but when she saw Minglou standing at her door, her anger disappeared instantly.

Ming Lou's face was not in a good state, as if he hadn't slept all night. He was not polite at all: "What did the Japanese think of that sudden notice last night?"

"Do they know that this rough approach will cause a series of consequences?"

"Shanghai's economy, which has finally recovered, is likely to be devastated!" Minglou looked disappointed.

"Senior Brother Minglou," Wang Manchun lowered her head and said softly, "This matter cannot be changed. The Japanese have made up their minds."

Wang Manchun knew the consequences of the theft. As the daughter of the head of the Wang family, she knew more and deeper information than the Japanese.

She also understood what it was. The Japanese would never give it up, and neither would the Wang family.

Ming Lou interrupted rudely, "None of you are explaining clearly. So, what exactly is the reason? I, your economic advisor, must know!"

"What on earth could be more important than the entire Shanghai economy?"

Minglou's words became more and more impolite, and he looked completely heartbroken.

Wang Manchun was instantly overwhelmed by love. She also understood that her senior brother had worked hard for the economy of Shanghai, and his current actions would be equivalent to wasting all his efforts.

"Brother, this is an order from the Imperial Army." Wang Manchun's voice gradually became lower and lower. "But it's okay. It will only take a day at most. Once we catch those three thieves, everything will return to normal."

"Hmph, what if they run out of Shanghai? Are you, Unit 76 and the Special High Section, going to keep blocking the city until you can catch them?" Minglou snorted coldly.

"Don't worry, they can't escape from Shanghai. They are just a few outsiders. We have almost locked them down." Wang Manchun explained quickly.

Sure enough, the target was Er Yuehong.

And the thing in his hand.

Ming Lou narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly, "Then I will wait for good news."

Seeing Minglou getting angry, Wang Manchun quickly said, "Brother, at this moment, we must not get angry with the Imperial Army."

"If anything goes wrong, I won't be able to help you."

Seeing that the situation was getting tense, Ming Lou softened his stance a bit: "Forget it, forget it. You guys with guns don't understand how difficult economic work is."

"I came here so early because I wanted to discuss the specific work with you."

"This includes how supplies are delivered and personnel entry and exit permissions during the lockdown."

Seeing that Minglou had finally put away his scholarly arrogance, Wang Manchun smiled and said, "During this period of time, please make sure to inform Sister Mingjing not to go out casually."

"The Japanese sometimes don't recognize people."

"Don't worry, I have the final say in the Ming family." Ming Lou responded casually and invited Wang Manchun to get in the car together.

This time, he also used the transportation of supplies to indirectly understand Japan's defense and search plans.

To increase the chances of survival for Er Yuehong and others who may still be hiding in the city.

If the Japanese really wanted something to be buried with them in Shanghai, it would definitely be related to the overall situation of the War of Resistance.

Early in the morning, Zhang Chun went to the streets under the pretext of buying breakfast to inquire about the situation.

You won’t know unless you ask. Once you ask, you’ll be shocked. You’ll quickly buy two fried dough sticks and rush back.

"Uncle, please teach me!"

The girl clung to Qi Tiezui and forced him to take out his arithmetic book, asking the famous fortune teller in Changsha to do the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

The younger boy was picked up by Er Yuehong and looked at the morning glories on the wall.

When Zhang Chun came back, he saw such a happy scene.

He was stunned for a moment, then walked up and bowed, "My daughter and son are not well-educated, and I am sorry to bother you two gentlemen."

"It's okay." Er Yuehong touched the little boy's head.

Zhang Chun put down the fried dough sticks, handed the two children a bag of candy, and said in a serious tone, "Go do your homework! You can eat after you finish your homework."

When the two little kids saw the candy, they immediately forgot everything and ran back happily.

When they entered the room, Zhang Chun's face turned serious and he whispered, "My Lords, the whole of Shanghai is in chaos!"

"I don't know what the Japanese have done. They mobilized tens of thousands of people and blocked off the entire city of Shanghai last night, forcing no one to enter or leave."

"All the Japanese soldiers and police in Shanghai are conducting a large-scale search of our area, especially the people from Hunan, who are the key targets for investigation."

"I heard from the newspaper vendor, Xiao Hangsan, that if anyone shows signs of suspicious behavior, they'll be taken away for questioning, regardless of anyone's feelings."

"Besides, they've already plastered Erye's portraits all over the city."

Zhang Chun sighed.

Er Yuehong and Qi Tiezui looked at each other. Since they knew what the item was, they had no doubt about the Japanese's determination to take it back.

The exposure of Er Yuehong was also expected.

After all, he disappeared while singing, and considering that he was from Changsha, this incident must be related to him.

"Second Master, then shall we disguise ourselves and go out?" Qi Tiezui thought for a while and said.

Er Yuehong shook his head. Although disguise can solve the problem of appearance, it cannot solve the problem of identity.

They had no way of obtaining legal status, and given the cruelty of the Japanese, any suspicion would lead to imprisonment.

The Japanese would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go.

At this time, Chenpi climbed over the wall with a serious look on his face.

"Second Master, the Japanese are coming!" Chen Pi whispered.

"So fast?!" Er Yuehong's heart tightened.

He had expected the Japanese to come soon, but he didn't expect them to last even a day. Qi Tiezui's face turned pale, and he began to tremble like a sieve.

Zhang Chun's face turned pale. The Japanese came here so quickly, obviously they had obtained intelligence.

This way you can't get away with bribery.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Gentlemen, this alley is very complicated. People from outside can't get out even if they come in."

"There's a small trail that only a few people know about, and you'll definitely not run into any Japanese!"

Chen Pi snorted and turned his head: "Second Master, I'll go and distract the Japanese. You guys go from the back."

Although he didn't find anything suspicious about the man yesterday and early this morning, he still trusted himself more at this time.

"No!" Zhang Chun shouted anxiously, "I know you gentlemen don't trust me, but at this moment, I can't hesitate any longer."

"Japanese, send out at least a squadron! No matter how good you are at fighting, you can't escape from dozens of Type 38 rifles!"

Chen Pi wanted to say something, but Er Yuehong patted his shoulder and smiled at Zhang Chun: "You are the escape route that Buddha left for us. We trust you as much as we trust Buddha."

"Lead the way, let's go."

Zhang Chun finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his hands and handed the fried dough sticks on the table to his wife.

"Your favorite fried dough sticks, brought specially for you."

As if sensing his wife's worried gaze, he smiled at her worried face; "Xiaohui, don't worry, you take good care of the two children."

"I'll be right back."

Less than two minutes had passed since the four of them turned the corner.

Two military jeeps suddenly rushed into the alley.

A group of Japanese soldiers in khaki uniforms jumped out of the car, scaring the two old ladies who were peeling melon seeds and chatting at the door so much that they ran back suddenly.

A Japanese squad leader rubbed the mud on his feet at the corner of the wall, then walked in front with a pistol in his hand, looking arrogant.

He drew his saber, pointed at the houses on both sides, and shouted, "Make sure to search thoroughly. If you encounter any suspicious individuals who dare to resist,

"Execute on the spot!"

Er Yuehong has been wondering whether his whereabouts had been exposed yesterday. After all, the Japanese soldiers directly surrounded this area of ​​streets, which seemed to be a targeted move.

From the Hongkou Military Police Headquarters to Zhang Chun's house, he met so many people along the way, even though he changed his appearance three times and changed four sets of clothes.

He couldn't even guarantee that no one would recognize him.

Moreover, he felt the weight of the suitcase.

Now even the Luoshu has come out, who knows if the Japanese have any strange things over there.

Or strange people or ghosts.

He suddenly felt Chenpi secretly tugging at his sleeve.

Chenpi took out a pineapple knife and nodded at Zhang Chun who was leading the way.

Er Yuehong shook his head.

It wasn't Zhang Chun, he was sure.

Moreover, Chen Pi may not necessarily suspect Zhang Chun, but more likely wants to kill him to silence him.

Zhang Chun was a good man. If they killed him for their own safety, what difference would they make from the Japanese?

The four of them kept moving through the streets and alleys, walked out of that door, and went into other people's homes.

After walking for nearly ten minutes, they finally got out of the alley and saw a black Ford car parked in front of them.

Zhang Chun finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to the three Nine Gates and said, "Three gentlemen, hurry up and get in the car."

"This is the car of Mr. Zhao, the boss of Hongchuntang. He has some connections with the Green Gang, the Japanese, and the government."

"The land route is blocked now. I've already agreed with him that you should take the water route."

"I heard from Boss Zhao that the Japanese are rampant at sea, and a captain died at the Military Police Headquarters yesterday."

"So there's no movement at sea. You can leave Shanghai by sea!"

Chen Pi's face was full of suspicion, and he asked directly: "What boss Zhao? What if he sends us to the Japanese military camp?"

Zhang Chun was extremely anxious: "Oh, my three masters, it's already this late."

"I know it's useless to say more at this moment, but the Japanese are coming after us!"

Er Yuehong grabbed Chen Pi who was about to speak, opened the car door directly, paused for a moment, turned around and handed a revolver to Zhang Chun.

"What is this?" Zhang Chun asked puzzled.

Er Yuehong smiled faintly: "This gun was given to me by the Buddha back then, and I am giving it to you now."

When Zhang Chun heard that it was Master Fo's gun, his face was immediately filled with joy: "How can this be so embarrassing!"

"A good gun deserves a hero, and you are a hero too."

Er Yuehong patted his shoulder and gave Zhang Chun a fist bump. "Brother Zhang Chun, I cannot thank you enough for this kindness. Take care."

"I have to go back as soon as possible. If the Japanese find out that the owner of the house is not at home, they will definitely become suspicious." Zhang Chun put the gun into his arms and saluted Er Yuehong and his party.

"Three heroes, take care!"

The car drove away immediately. Zhang Chun breathed a sigh of relief and hurried back.

It should be fine. Boss Zhao is a sincerely patriotic man. He and his brother sacrificed their family property to help the Japanese invaders. I also heard that his elder brother went to Sichuan a few days ago and hired a group of strange people to assassinate high-ranking Japanese military officials.

There is no other way now. Although the Buddha has other arrangements in Shanghai, they were all cleared out by a group of Japanese aliens some time ago.
