Takahashi Toyichi arrived at Taikoo Pier early in the morning. According to the news he received, Tian Nanchen would leave Haigu by passenger ship at 3:40 this afternoon.
He didn't have time yesterday and had to come to observe the scene today.
Takahashi Yuichi never fights an unprepared battle. Today is his first action as the super squad leader of the British Concession Military Police Detachment. He must succeed.
In order to ensure absolute success, Takahashi Toyichi transferred four Japanese military police.
Two of them also bought tickets for the 3:40 pm boat trip.
Once the operation at the dock goes wrong, they are responsible for arresting people on the ship.
He led the other two people and took action at the dock.
Although today's action did not alert the police, Takahashi Toyichi reported it to the Military Police Headquarters.
In order to ensure that his actions were foolproof, he had to become familiar with the terrain around the dock again.
Moreover, the four Japanese military police also needed to be familiar with the terrain of Taikoo Pier.
At noon, Takahashi Toyichi arrived at the dock again, found a suitable place, and waited for Tian Nanchen from the CCP to arrive.
However, from noon to the afternoon until the boat left at 3:40, he did not see Tian Nanchen.
At the same time, I didn't see my own insider information.
Takahashi Yuichi had to let his two men take the boat first and look for clues on the boat.
It wasn't until evening that Takahashi Toyichi saw his informant, a young man in student uniform, in a small cafe on Dakra Road.
His name is Ren Weigang, a Korean. As an exiled student from the Northeast, he joined the Democratic Pioneers in Peiping and worked as a secretary at the headquarters.
Ren Weigang grew up in Northeast China and can speak authentic Northeastern dialect.
This created good conditions for him to join the People's Bank of China in Peiping.
"Mr. Takahashi, I'm sorry, Tian Nanchen has temporarily changed his schedule." Ren Weigang said apologetically after seeing Takahashi Toyichi.
Ren Weigang is not tall and does not have the toughness of Northeasterners. He is a bit thin and his face is a bit long.
Generally speaking, his appearance is relatively ordinary. If you throw this kind of person into a crowd, you may not be able to recognize him.
"He hasn't left yet?" Takahashi Toyoichi didn't have time to lose his temper, he just wanted to know the result.
This is the first time he has commanded an operation as a super squad leader.
The person arrested was Tian Nanchen, an important figure in the CCP and the leader of the Northern Bureau.
It is said that Tian Nanchen has been in charge of special operations in Haigu and has an intelligence network in his hands.
"Yes, it is said that it has been rescheduled. The North China National Salvation Association will be changed to the North China People's Self-Defense Committee. Some personnel need his contact." As the secretary of the Democratic Pioneer Corps headquarters, Ren Weigang's information in this regard is still very accurate.
"Where does he live now?" Takahashi Toyichi asked. If Tian Nanchen didn't leave, he would have no choice but to take the initiative.
His first action must not fail.
"No. 1, Davenport Road, Davenport." Ren Weigang said affirmatively.
In the afternoon, he met Tian Nanchen there. Tian Nanchen was very talkative and asked him a lot about work and life.
"Where does he live alone?" Takahashi Toyichi asked. He wanted to do it at the dock before, but now it seems that he can only kidnap him at his door.
"He lives alone these days, but I don't know about it tonight." Ren Weigang works as a secretary at the headquarters of the Democratic Pioneer Corps and is very cautious about what he says.
"You go back first, this is your reward." Takahashi Toyichi took out an envelope and pushed it in front of Ren Weigang.
Ren Weigang grinned so much that he took the envelope, squeezed it, and stuffed it into his pocket.
Ren Weigang pushed the door of the cafe open, looked around cautiously, and after finding nothing unusual, he called a rickshaw and left.
Not long after he left, Takahashi Toyichi also walked out.
"Old Yao, Xiaohua, this is Takahashi Toyoichi, the new super squad leader of the British Concession Military Police Unit. Now, you should believe it, right?" Tian Nanchen sighed secretly, even though he knew this result last night.
But seeing with his own eyes that Ren Weigang and Takahashi Toyichi appeared in the same cafe, he was still disappointed.
Tian Nanchen met Ren Weigang at No. 1 Davenport Road, Davenport Road. Tian Nanchen had a good impression of this taciturn young man from the Northeast.
I never expected that Ren Weigang turned out to be Rite.
If "Ant" hadn't sent the message, he might have fallen into the hands of the Japanese now.
The old Yao in Tian Nanchen's mouth refers to Yao Yimin, the new high-ranking official of Haigu City who is sitting next to him.
Hua Ping is the Secretary-General of the Peking Revolutionary Headquarters and can be regarded as Ren Weigang’s direct leader.
The three of them were sitting in a small restaurant by the window on the second floor opposite.
The two of them ordered two dishes and a bottle of wine.
They followed Ren Weigang out. After arriving at the cafe, Tian Nanchen chose this restaurant.
This location is the best choice for monitoring the opposite side.
"I didn't expect Ren Weigang to be such a person." Hua Ping spoke first, but her voice was weak and her whole body was on the verge of collapse.
When Tian Nanchen told her in the morning that Ren Weigang might be working for the Japanese, she felt slandered.
The people in the Pioneer Corps are all good people. They are patriotic, dedicated, and hate the Japanese.
Ren Weigang is an exiled student from the Northeast and hates the Japanese even more. How can he do things for the Japanese?
However, when she saw Ren Weigang and Takahashi Yuichi having sex with her own eyes, Hua Ping was so angry that she couldn't even hold her chopsticks.
When Takahashi Toyichi came out, he looked at the time and saw that he had to go back to the agency.
Takahashi Toyichi arrived at Tai Koo Pier early in the morning and stayed there in the afternoon. He only went to No. 22 Combat South Road at noon.
When Takahashi Toyichi arrived at No. 22 Kang Bonan Road, everyone else was already there.
"Congratulations to squad leader Takahashi for the victory." Lu Chengzhou saw Takahashi Yuichi coming back and greeted him with a smile.
"What's the flag? What's the victory? What's the progress of the intelligence room's work today?" Takahashi Yuichi said coldly.
There was nothing wrong with Lu Chengzhou's words, but to his ears, they were very harsh.
If Tian Nanchen is caught, he will accept Lu Chengzhou's compliments calmly.
However, he didn't even see Tian Nanchen's shadow, so he was naturally in a very bad mood.
"The intelligence room has summarized the situation in the British Concession today." Lu Chengzhou was not angry because he was scolded, and still said calmly.
In addition to him and Zhang Sichang, the intelligence room also arranged for a translator, mainly to translate newspapers from the concession into Japanese.
In addition, the information from Lu Chengzhou and Zhang Sichang will also be compiled.
However, they are all routine and do not contain any important information.
In fact, Takahashi Toyichi's attitude made Lu Chengzhou secretly happy.
If Takahashi Toyichi's action was successful, he would be very satisfied at this time, but for Lu Chengzhou, it would be a bad thing.
"Let's have a meeting." Nakayama Ryoichi knew that Takahashi Toyoichi was back and called several people to the conference room.
This conference room was converted from a study room on the second floor. No. 22 Cumberland Road has a total of three floors and more than a dozen rooms, which is enough for the personnel of the British Concession Military Police Detachment to live and work.
Takahashi Toyichi did not mention the content of the action at the meeting, let alone the fact that he and Ren Weigang had just met.
He will report these matters to Nakayama Ryoichi alone.
As long as there are Chinese people participating, he will be particularly wary.
Although Takahashi Toyichi was very well hidden, Lu Chengzhou had already deduced from his mood that today's so-called action must have failed.
Li Xiangxue has already reported the information to the organization. If Takahashi Toyichi still succeeds, he might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill him head-on.
Takahashi Toyichi was not in a rage. It is estimated that the insider has not been exposed yet.
The organization may not have found the traitor yet, but it is also possible that it accepted its own opinion and did not alert the traitor for the time being.
Before the leader of the Northern Bureau left Haigu without safety, Lu Chengzhou felt that the traitor should not be alerted.
If the traitor is punished today, given Takahashi Yuichi's character, he will definitely be investigated rigorously.
In front of such people, Lu Chengzhou didn't want to leave any flaws.
You must have a backup plan for everything and be ready to deal with Takahashi Toyichi's sudden attack at any time.
"There are two things in today's meeting. First, the vehicle issue. I went to the headquarters today. We need to solve the car issue ourselves. Second, the interrogation issue. I found that there is a cellar here where people can be temporarily detained. If the cellar is
If we deepen it, we may be able to interrogate the prisoner." Nakayama Ryoichi said slowly.
"How can we solve the car problem in the British Concession?" Takahashi Toyichi said dissatisfied.
The Gendarmerie is a secret service with great powers. Is there still a shortage of cars?
"There are so many departments that need vehicles. Some military police units only have motorcycles for the time being. However, we are a secret unit and cannot use military motorcycles." Nakayama Ryoichi explained.
"You can give us money and we can just buy it ourselves." Zhang Sichang said disapprovingly.
You can buy everything in the British Concession. As long as you have money, you can buy not to mention cars and airplanes.
"The headquarters will not pay this money even if it is needed." Nakayama Ryoichi shook his head. The Gendarmerie headquarters has just been established. The facts are complicated and their needs have not been taken into account at all.
"Without a car, it's very inconvenient to move around." Takahashi Toyichi also thinks this is a problem.
"Director Lu, what do you think?" Zhongshan Liang asked proactively when he saw Lu Chengzhou didn't speak.
"We are a military police unit, and everything should be given priority to us. If Captain Zhongshan is trustworthy, I can solve the vehicle problem." Lu Chengzhou said firmly.
"There are no cars in the smuggled goods." Zhang Sichang was racking his brains, thinking about how to offer suggestions. Lu Chengzhou casually agreed to solve the problem. He felt that his pride was hurt.
"I wonder what Lu Sang can do?" Takahashi Toyoichi was also aroused by Lu Chengzhou's interest.
His actions are inseparable from cars. Not only cars, but also several more, preferably trucks and cars.
"Let me give you a break. I'll think of a solution first. If it's solved, I'll report it to a few people. If it's not solved, I won't show off my shame." Lu Chengzhou said with a smile.
"Okay, leave this matter to Director Lu. As for the expansion of the cellar, Deputy Director Zhang will be responsible for it." Nakayama Ryoichi said slowly.
