"Oh, by the way, team leader. The message also said that from now on, we are not allowed to join forces with the Red Party."
Just when Mingtai was still hesitant about whether to ask Uncle Li for help, Guo Qiyun quickly added as if he had guessed what he was thinking.
This really gave Mingtai a headache. He couldn't help but frown and said, "But with our small manpower, it is really difficult to punish Zhang Ni within a week."
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang's voice suddenly sounded from behind him without warning, "Why, is it possible that without the Red Party, you won't be able to complete the task assigned to you by Shangfeng?"
As soon as these words came out, Mingtai couldn't help but be stunned, and then he immediately put on a smiling face and said to Li Qiang in a flattering manner: "How could it be? We should do our best to complete the tasks assigned to us by Shangfeng. It's just that
As the old saying goes, a good woman cannot make a meal without rice. Our manpower is really limited, and the time limit of the task is short. It is not an easy task to complete the task! How about... Brother Aqiang, please support me a little more
Manpower, how about it?"
"Why else do you think I'm here?" After saying that, Li Qiang clapped his hands and said, "Come in, everyone!"
Before he finished speaking, a dozen well-trained young people rushed in from the outside with a roar.
And the leader is actually an old acquaintance of Mingtai and others, Staff Officer Lin!
When acquaintances meet, they are naturally very affectionate. After a few simple greetings, the two parties have become familiar with each other.
Li Qiang then said: "Since the leader of the Area B Action Team was transferred back to Chongqing to report on his duties, it was decided by the headquarters that from now on, the Action Teams of Area A and Area B will be merged and reorganized into a special operations group, with the team leader 'Poisonous Scorpion'
, deputy team leader Lin Huaibu, Guo Qiyun are still serving as adjutants, while Yu Manli has been promoted to second adjutant and will be directly assigned to the leadership of 'Venom Bee'. This appointment takes effect immediately, do you all hear clearly?"
"Listen clearly! Sir!" everyone responded in unison.
Hearing this, Li Qiang nodded with satisfaction, and then nodded to Lin Huaibu beside him. The latter immediately became suspicious, and then took out a map of SH urban area with extremely detailed markings from his bag.
"As we all know, Zhang Ni is arty and loves Peking Opera on weekdays, but now the famous Peking Opera actor Xin Yanqiu has performed two consecutive performances at the Update Stage, which can be said to be a full house, and in three days, she will be on stage to perform her best-in-class performance.
Zhang Ni will definitely watch the song "Yu Tang Chun" by then, and this will be a god-sent opportunity to assassinate him."
After hearing this, Mingtai pondered for a moment, and then said: "Well, in a public place like the theater, there shouldn't be too many bodyguards around Zhang Ni. Moreover, the theater is crowded with people and the environment is complex, so it is easy to follow the action.
Escape, Deputy Team Leader Lin is right, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime assassination opportunity! But even so, it needs to be planned carefully. Well, Manli and I will go to the theater to investigate first in the evening. Adjutant Guo,
These new brothers will be left to you."
"Don't worry, team leader."
"Okay, without further ado, let's split up! Manli, come with me!" After saying that, Mingtai nodded to Li Qiang, then left the flour mill with Yu Manli and went straight to the theater.
Rush in the direction...
"Manly."
"Um?"
"Did you feel anything was wrong?"
"You mean Staff Officer Lin?"
"No! The whole thing, including the teacher's assassination order, I always feel that things are not that simple."
"Teacher, don't you always take one step at a time and look at the next three steps when doing things?"
"No, this time is different. He also specifically emphasized that I am not allowed to join forces with the Red Party. Do you think...does he already know Cheng Jinyun's identity as a Red Party member?"
"Probably not?" Although Yu Manli unconsciously felt jealous as soon as she heard Cheng Jinyun's name from Mingtai, she still tried her best to help Mingtai in a calm tone.
The analysis said, "With the teacher's temper, if he finds out about Miss Cheng's Red Party identity, he will definitely try his best to separate the two of you!"
"That's right." Mingtai nodded in agreement and said.
However, before she finished speaking, Yu Manli on the side could not help but said quietly: "By the way, I almost forgot, congratulations!"
As soon as these words came out, Mingtai couldn't help being stunned, and then he asked knowingly: "What did you say?"
"I said congratulations, congratulations... you are about to get engaged to Miss Cheng."
"You know, she and I are just pretending to be a couple, that's all."
"I know they are pretending to be a couple, but whether it's real or fake, an engagement is an engagement..." Yu Manli touched the pendant around her neck through her clothes and murmured to herself.
Mingtai naturally knew Yu Manli's thoughts, but at this moment he had not thought about how he should respond, so he could only pretend not to hear and concentrate on driving, and ended their conversation with silence.
That night, a phone call covering a distance of nearly 300 kilometers came to the room where Nan Zao Yunzi was staying at the Nanjing Central Hotel.
"...Akagi Shigeyuki? That Baron Akagi's younger brother? What is he doing in Shanghai?"
"It is said that he came to rectify the telecommunications system of the Special High School, but just this afternoon, as soon as Shigeyuki Akagi arrived in Shanghai, he arrested all the people in the confidential offices of the Manchuria Railway Office, and then only briefly interrogated them.
Just a few words and they were all shot." On the other side of the phone, Wang Manchun replied truthfully.
"This idiot! What age have you been, and you still kill chickens to scare monkeys and establish your authority by killing them!" After scolding him fiercely, Nanzo Yunzi suddenly came back to his senses and asked, "That's not right! Akagi.
The matter of Maozhi's trip south should be kept strictly confidential, how did you learn about it?"
"Aqiang told me that he and Akagi Shigeyuki were old acquaintances, so as soon as Akagi Shigeyuki arrived in Shanghai, he invited him to a banquet at Hongkou Hotel to reminisce about old times."
"Reminiscing about old times?" Nanzo Yunzi couldn't help but snorted after hearing this, "It's not so much about reminiscing about old times, but it's more about wooing, right? But although it's not clear what the reason was, that kid revealed the news that Akagi Shigeyuki came to Shanghai.
From this point of view, Akagi Shigeyuki's meal should not have achieved the expected goal, which is a good opportunity for us."
"what do you mean?"
"Try to win over that kid as much as possible, figure out the true purpose of Akagi Shigeyuki's trip, and report to me at any time!"
"Yes! I obey my orders!" Having said this, Wang Manchun hesitated for a moment, but finally reported the truth truthfully, "In addition, Lone Wolf asked me to meet a few days ago and said that he discovered that Mingtai, the young master of the Ming family, is the military commander.
The strong evidence of 'poisonous scorpion', you see..."
"It's not a 'poisonous bee' but a 'poisonous scorpion'? No wonder... have you seen the evidence?"
"No, according to Lone Wolf's report, the evidence is now in Cheng's hands, and it is very likely that it has fallen into the hands of Chief Fujita."
As soon as these words came out, Nan Zao Yunzi's voice suddenly dropped, and he said word by word: "When did the two of them get on the line?"
"This... I'm not sure about the humble position. So in your opinion, what should the humble position do next?"
Hearing this, the other side fell into silence. I don’t know how long it took before Nan Zao Yunzi’s voice finally rang again, “In that case, let’s take the first step and carry out an all-weather attack on the Ming family, especially Mingtai.
Focus on surveillance. As for the specific actions to be taken, you can decide at your own discretion, but one thing is that you must not let him fall into the hands of others. Do you understand?"
"Understood! But if we capture Mingtai, Miss Nariko..."
"You don't have to worry about this. I will take care of it. You just need to do what I say."
"Yes! I humbly accept my order!"
Three days later, on the night of the action, Mingtai and Yu Manli arrived at the update stage early. Like a couple, they held hands intimately and successfully blended into the crowd who came to watch the show.
At the same time, Lin Huaibu, who had just been appointed as the deputy team leader, also quietly ambush at the four entrances and exits of the theater with his people, ready to intercept any fish that slipped through the net.
Guo Qiyun parked his car at the intersection just across the street from the main entrance of the theater, ready to meet Mingtai and Yu Manli in the theater at any time.
However, everyone waited until the show started, but Zhang Xiaolin still didn't show up.
Is this a coincidence, or did news of the assassination leak out, making him defensive?
Just as he was thinking about it, Lin Huaibu quietly came behind Mingtai and said to him in a low voice: "Team leader, we still haven't found the target. Do you want to cancel this operation?"
"Wait a minute!" Mingtai said after pondering for a moment.
"good!"
After a while, the first scene on the stage had finished, but Zhang Xiaolin was still nowhere to be seen, so Mingtai was about to order the cancellation of the operation, but at this moment, Li Qiang stood beside him without knowing it.
Behind him, he said softly: "The news I just received is that just when Zhang Ni was about to go out, a call from the Japanese called his home, so he made a temporary change and rushed to Xinya Trading Co., Ltd."
After hearing this, Mingtai felt a little annoyed, but at the same time, the hanging stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. In his opinion, as long as there was no internal problem within himself, everything would be fine.
Thinking of this, Mingtai also lowered his voice and replied: "Okay, I understand, I will give the order to cancel this operation."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang quickly shook his head and said, "No! This operation cannot be canceled."
"Why?"
"Although Zhang Ni did not show up today, his children and in-laws, that is, Yu Yefeng, the vice president of the 'New Asia Peace Promotion Association', are in Zhang Ni's private room at the moment, so from now on, your action goal is temporary.
Instead, punish the old traitor Yu Yefeng and kill Zhang Ni for his arrogance."
"But... if this happens, won't it alert the enemy?" Mingtai asked worriedly after hearing this.
"Don't worry, I have already made the next plan for you, you just need to execute it according to the plan."
"Okay... then!" After a brief hesitation, Mingtai finally chose to believe Li Qiang and nodded to accept the task.
At this time, the famous actor Xin Yanqiu was performing hard on the stage. Everything from the movements to the lyrics was so smooth and smooth. The audience in the audience burst into applause and cheered constantly, but just when the performance was about to reach its climax
At that moment, a burst of gunfire suddenly came from the private room on the second floor, and then a well-dressed man in the private room and his five accompanying bodyguards all fell into a pool of blood.
After the gunshot, the entire theater immediately fell into chaos. The audience who had been cheering and applauding just now did not care about anything else and ran out of the theater screaming in terror.
And it was precisely because of this chaos that Mingtai and others were able to blend in with the crowd and leave the crime scene calmly without any effort.
The next day, Shanghai's major newspapers, which were as action-packed as No. 76, made extremely detailed reports on the shooting incident at the New Stage. This frightened Zhang Xiaolin who saw the report. He had to know that if he had been killed the night before,
If he hadn't received that life-saving call, the obituary in today's newspaper would most likely be his own.
In fact, it's no wonder that his reaction was so violent. Although Zhang Xiaolin had killed many people in his life, and his hands could be said to be stained with other people's blood, this time although he was lucky enough to escape, it was enough to make him
He became frightened.
So after putting down the newspaper, Zhang Xiaolin immediately gathered all the bodyguards in Zhang's residence and escorted him to the military police headquarters.
"...In this way, Zhang Xiaolin exchanged the shares originally held by Yu Yefeng for the protection of the Military Police Headquarters. For this reason, Fujita Yoshimasa also specially separated a military police class from the Special Second Class to station at Zhang's residence and protect him.
Zhang Xiaolin’s safety.”
In the study room of the Ming family, after Acheng told the news he had just learned, he couldn't help but frowned and said to Li Qiang with a hint of complaint: "I don't know what you are thinking, you can't even do this.
Even the city government is gone, but now that Zhang Xiaolin has been frightened, it will be difficult to assassinate him."
In fact, not only Acheng, but Mingtai also complained about such a plan, so he did not say anything and just looked at Li Qiang like Acheng, waiting for his explanation.
However, Li Qiang just smiled and said as if he was kicking a ball: "Don't look at me like that, this is an order from that 'madman', I'm just conveying it. But even so, I'm afraid this matter
It’s not as bad as you think.”
"Isn't this bad enough? The one-week deadline is almost here."
"Aren't there still three days left? That's enough!" Li Qiang said confidently, but then he suddenly changed the subject, "But compared to assassinating Zhang Ni, the area around the mansion has become more and more lively recently. I don't know if you guys
Have you noticed?"
"What do you think? If you can't even notice such an obvious difference, you would be too slow, right?" Acheng said angrily.
"That's true, but do you know who those guys outside are here for?"
