There are three other people in the warehouse, all of whom are women. Two of them look like Zheng Chunyue's maids, and there is a middle-aged woman who must be the cook.
There is a bed in the warehouse. There is a table in front of the bed with several dishes on it. There are empty wine bottles near the table.
Lu Ming understood when he saw this. When he arrived, An Gonggen must have been drinking with Zhang Ziyang. These maids and cooks were all here to serve them.
After Lu Ming and others broke in, it was too late for the maid and the cook to go back to the front.
An Gonggen didn't know who was coming, so he naturally didn't dare to expose himself and could only continue to hide. Zhang Ziyang was not worried at all, he could handle anyone who came.
"Brother, you have to listen to me on this matter. Really, you have to help them once. In fact, you are also helping ourselves." Zhang Ziyang said while driving a few women around him out.
There were only two of them left in the warehouse.
"Tell me, what can you do to help them?" Lu Ming asked, his mood now more stable.
"I heard that the old Japanese commander Honjo Shigeru, the commander of the Kwantung Army, is coming to Shanghai for a visit. An Gonggen and the others want this old guy to never come back." Zhang Ziyang was half drunk and gestured with his hands unsteadily.
"They want to assassinate Benzhuang Shi?" Lu Ming asked in surprise.
He also knew that the commander of the Kwantung Army, Honjo Shigeru, was coming to Shanghai. Yan Xiaohui had told him, and the Yan family was busy preparing to hold a welcome reception for Benjo Shigeru.
"An Gonggen's men kidnapped me because they wanted to borrow my police uniform and gun to sneak into the venue and assassinate Honjo Shige. Initially, I heard that the welcome banquet would be held in the French Concession and hosted by Mr. Du. Later, the plan changed and was scheduled to be held in
A welcome banquet was held in the Japanese Concession. It was difficult for me to enter the Japanese Concession with my police uniform and gun, let alone sneak into the venue." Zhang Ziyang explained.
"It's useless even if you can sneak in. Who is Honjo Shige? Commander of the Kwantung Army. His security level is very high. Outsiders can't get to him at all. It's unrealistic to assassinate him." Lu Ming shook his head.
Lu Ming actually disapproved of assassination activities, because assassinations could not solve the fundamental problem. If you kill a general, there will be too many generals to replace him, which will not help.
Even an important person like Honjo Shige is not irreplaceable.
Of course, Lu Ming also sympathizes with the Korean people. He thinks that China was defeated by Japan in the Sino-Japanese War of 1891-1894 while defending North Korea. Since then, its national power has been in decline. From a certain perspective, China and North Korea are two countries that are closely related and dependent on each other.
But if you want to assassinate Honjo Shige, the success rate is too low.
The Shanghai Korean Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Team led by An Gonggen has carried out assassination activities against Japanese people many times, making these Japanese people extremely vigilant.
"Whether it is possible or not, as long as you can bring their people into the venue, the rest is their own business." Zhang Ziyang said.
"How could I enter that venue? Who told you that I would attend such a welcome reception?" Lu Ming sneered.
"Isn't this a discussion with you? If you want to get in, you will definitely be able to get in. Chairman Sheng will definitely be on the invitation list. When the time comes, why don't you just follow and get in? If you bring two more people from An Gonggen and sneak in, you will be able to get in."
It’s done.” Zhang Ziyang said proudly.
"It's not difficult to sneak in, but after the assassination, the assassin cannot escape safely. Once his identity is exposed, what will Uncle Sheng do? Have you ever thought about it?" Lu Ming said angrily.
Lu Ming estimated that the welcome banquet in the Japanese Concession was probably organized by the Yan family. In this case, it would not be a problem for him to enter the venue. He could also bring one or two followers with him. The problem was how to plan the assassin's evacuation route after the assassination?
"Alas, their people didn't expect to come out alive after they went in." Zhang Ziyang sighed.
"Death warrior?" Lu Ming said in surprise.
"Well, that's what I mean." Zhang Ziyang smiled bitterly. He was inspired by the spirit of these Korean exile fighters, so he voluntarily stayed here to help them.
"This is a suicide assassination operation. I will not participate in it." Lu Ming shook his head.
"Master Lu, if I can kill Honjo Shimo, even if ten of us die, it will be worth it. I am going to go into battle personally. I have already reported to Chairman Jin Jiu, and he approved this assassination operation." I don't know when, An Gonggen
He walked in and said behind Lu Ming.
"Actually, I think everyone's life should be equal. It's not easy for you martyrs to come to Shanghai from the suffering land of North Korea. You should cherish your life more and not exchange your life at will.
The life of a Japanese, even if the Japanese has a high status." Lu Ming said calmly.
"Because the situation is different, our thoughts are also different. For us, the peace period has passed, and now we have become slaves of subjugation, so wherever the Japanese are, it is our battlefield. We are ready to fight at any time.
Be prepared to sacrifice. This does not mean that we do not cherish our lives. We are willing to dedicate our lives for the liberation and independence of the nation." An Gonggen said impassionedly.
Lu Ming was silent. Although he could not agree with this suicidal action, he could completely understand An Gonggen's words and was very touched.
If one day Shanghai is occupied by the Japanese, and China is occupied by the Japanese, will he be willing to devote his life to fight the Japanese to the end?
Of course he is willing and has no hesitation.
"Okay, I will find a way to bring your people in, but please do your best to evacuate safely afterwards." Lu Ming softened his heart and agreed.
"As long as Mr. Lu is willing to do his best to help, no matter when we achieve national liberation and independence, we will always remember the friendship of the Chinese people." An Gonggen bowed.
"Mr. An's words are serious. China and North Korea have been interdependent neighbors for thousands of years. The Chinese will never stand by and watch the Koreans' important events." Lu Ming returned the greeting.
An Gonggen bowed deeply to Lu Ming, seemed a little excited, and wiped his eyes.
"Why do you have to stay here? It's okay for you to leave now. It won't affect An Gonggen's plan. On the contrary, if you go out with me, there are many places where you can help me." Lu Ming said to Zhang Ziyang.
He still didn't like letting Zi Yang stay here, even though he knew An Gonggen had no ill intentions, but his brother's life was in the hands of others, which he was unwilling to accept.
"Inspector Zhang, Master Lu is right. You may be more helpful to us if you return to the police station." An Gonggen also said.
"By the way, how are you going to send the guns in? Even if I take your people with me, I will definitely be searched." Lu Ming suddenly thought of this.
"The gun must not be brought in. Our people are going to snatch the Japanese guard's gun and then use the Japanese gun to kill Shigeru Honjo." An Gonggen said.
Lu Ming looked at An Gonggen, wondering whether what he said was true or false.
I have to accept it.
Lu Ming has watched two American western movies, and An Gonggen's idea is even more outrageous than that of a cowboy.
It is obvious that such a plan will fail 100% of the time.
There is absolutely only one chance to assassinate an important figure, but why are you trying to grab him? Are the Japanese guards just stupid?
If you attack a guard, you will probably be beaten to a pulp by other guards before you even get the gun.
However, it is also possible that someone else in An Gonggen could lurk in and bring guns in beforehand, but they just didn't want to leak the news in advance.
When you meet someone, you can only say a few words, but don't give up everything.
What the ancient Chinese said is completely reasonable. He cannot completely believe An Gonggen, and the same is true for An Gonggen.
Zhang Ziyang was unwilling to leave before because he really wanted to help An Gonggen. He knew that An Gonggen would not completely trust him, so he wanted to stay. This would prevent the news from leaking out and An Gonggen could calmly proceed.
His plan.
"Are you a man or a girl? Why are you turning your elbows towards people with foreign surnames?" On the way back in the car, Lu Ming cursed Zhang Ziyang angrily.
"Hey, there's something wrong with what you said. Why do our little girls' elbows turn outwards? We turn them inward, okay?" Du Juan said with a smile.
As she spoke, she turned her elbow and faced Lu Ming. Everyone laughed.
"Didn't I write to you all, telling you that I'm fine? As you can see, I'm really fine!" Zhang Ziyang said plausibly.
"You should tell us that you were kidnapped and were drinking with the kidnapper. We just believed it. Is there something wrong with you?" Cai Lian couldn't help but punched him.
At this time, both of them wanted to push Zhang Ziyang to the ground and beat him up. This guy was really outrageous.
"By the way, I can't tell what you want to convey to me in that letter." Lu Ming asked.
"I just want to tell you that I'm really good. My handwriting is so elegant. You can't see it. I'm so stupid." Zhang Ziyang said with disdain.
Lu Ming was so angry that he wanted to hit someone again. It turned out that Zhang Ziyang didn't want to convey any information at all. No wonder he turned over and over again and couldn't find it. There was nothing in the first place.
Can you find a message that doesn't exist?
It was getting very late at this time, so Lu Ming asked the driver to send Du Juan back first, and then send Cai Lian and Zhang Ziyang back. He was the last one to return to the apartment.
Along the way, the taxi fare was a bit scary. Fortunately, Lu Ming was rich now, so there was no need to worry.
He returned to the apartment and first called Yuan Mingzhu to tell him that Zhang Ziyang had been found and that An Ran was back. As for the inside story, he did not go into details. He just said that the kidnapper contacted him and then he went over to bring Zi Yang back.
Feeling exhausted, he took a hot bath, then lay on the bed, and soon fell asleep.
After Lu Ming and others left, An Gonggen and Zheng Chunyue went upstairs to discuss their assassination plan.
"Sir, can we completely trust them?" Zheng Chunyue said respectfully to An Gonggen.
She is not An Gonggen's woman, but her home is indeed An Gonggen's secret hiding place.
"It should be trustworthy. Our goals and interests are the same on this issue," An Gonggen said thoughtfully.
He has been considering the credibility of Lu Ming and Zhang Ziyang. After thinking about it, he felt that he had no choice but to trust them, unless the volunteers gave up their assassination plan.
But the opportunity was so rare that even if he took another risk, he still wanted to give it a try.
Since the motherland was occupied by the Japanese, Korean martyrs have never stopped fighting. Their main purpose of assassinating senior Japanese officials is to inspire people.
An Zhonggen is an outstanding representative among them. He wants to let the people of the motherland know that no matter how arrogant and arrogant the Japanese invaders are, the ideal of rejuvenation of the country by benevolent people has never been lost, and the unyielding voice has always been floating in the sky of Korea.
"Master Lu's attitude... doesn't seem to be very cooperative," Zheng Chunyue said.
"We tied up his brother. It's good that he didn't fall out with us directly. Who doesn't know that he and Zhang Ziyang are so good at wearing the same pair of trousers. Except that women can't share them, everything else can be used together." An Gonggen said with a bitter smile.
"Can he sacrifice his life for the country like us? I think he is too timid to do it." Zheng Chunyue snorted coldly.
She was compared to a pile of stinky dog shit by Lu Ming, and now that she thinks about it, she still feels so disgusted that she deserves it. She can't forget the look of disgust on Lu Ming's face when he finally wanted to kiss her, which almost made it clear: you are just a pile of stinky dog shit.
shit.
"You can't say that. You don't have to hold grudges against Lu Ming. You also drove him to a dead end." An Gonggen consoled him.
He heard the whole process downstairs and didn't think there was anything wrong with Lu Ming's actions. Instead, he completely felt Lu Ming's brotherly love for Zhang Ziyang.
An Gonggen also had a deep brotherhood with his men. After all, they were all exiled from the land of Korea, but he had to send his brothers, living and dead, to the battlefield once, twice, or even many times, never to return.
To assassinate the enemy.
Every time, his heart was as sharp as a knife, but he had no choice but to persevere until he too gave up his life and sacrificed his life for the country.
