Almost all the personnel of the gendarmerie detachment arrived at the Grand Guangming Cinema.
Fourteen personnel were arranged at the main entrance, four Japanese military police from the special high class, and ten personnel from the first intelligence room, led by Ishida Akio.
At a small door at the back, two Japanese military police and six people from the Intelligence Room were arranged, led by Wu Wei.
Yamaguchi Shizuo personally sat behind Liu Jianwei, and next to him were two Japanese military police.
Lu Chengzhou was sitting on the right side of the row in front of Liu Jianwei. Beside him were Han Fushan, Ning Ming and Zhao Bin.
The three of them were either from the police force or from the detective team.
It can be said that as long as the flame appears, it will never escape.
As agreed, Liu Jianwei wore a white suit tonight, which made him stand out in the dark cinema.
Even if the lights are turned off in the cinema, you can still see clearly through the screen.
However, halfway through the movie, no one came to contact Liu Jianwei.
This made Yamaguchi Shizuo a little anxious. He kept comforting himself that the flames were difficult to deal with. Maybe at this time, the flames were hiding in some dark corner, observing Liu Jianwei.
Yamaguchi Shizuo used his sinister eyes to constantly observe the situation in the cinema. Any movement of people would attract his attention.
Lu Chengzhou was sitting there calmly. This real flame was watching the movie leisurely.
Before the movie was shown, Lu Chengzhou followed Yamaguchi Shizuo's order and carefully observed all people entering the cinema.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, he placed a timed incendiary bomb under the screen and set the time in one hour.
The timed incendiary bomb at Haigu Station was developed by the Anti-Regiment. It is small in size and has strong combustion and explosion value. If it is placed there, it will not be found at all if it is not activated.
Just when the movie was at its most exciting point, the screen suddenly burst into flames. The fire instantly became huge and impossible to stop.
As the screen burned and emitted a large amount of thick smoke, people in the cinema quickly rushed out as soon as they saw the fire.
Akio Ishida and Wu Wei, who were guarding the door, suddenly saw the people inside and rushed out like they were desperate.
"Bang bang bang!"
When Akio Ishida saw this, he immediately took out his gun and fired three shots into the air.
However, the sound of gunfire failed to stop the crowd inside from rushing out.
Hearing the gunfire, people ran even crazier.
There are hundreds of people in the cinema, and it's not like a dozen people can stop them.
Especially the people at the back, in order to survive, they didn't care what happened at the door and squeezed out as hard as they could.
Even if people at the door want to stop, they will be pushed by those behind them.
Almost in an instant, the checkpoint formed by Ishida Akio was washed away. Ishida Akio was pushed to the ground, the pistol fell to an unknown place, and he was stepped on countless times.
"Ah! Baga!"
Ishida Qiuo suddenly felt a sharp pain in the tibia of his calf. He clearly heard the sound of bones breaking. His calf was broken by someone.
The situation at the back door was similar to that at the front door, except that Wu Wei knew his wits and did not block the flow of people. He let them break up the barrier and quietly hid aside.
Those Japanese gendarmes also wanted to stop the audience in the cinema, but were knocked to the ground by the crowd in front of them. Although their bones were not trampled, there were countless footprints on their bodies.
As soon as the screen caught fire, Yamaguchi Shizuo concluded that the flames must have arrived.
However, there are hundreds of people in the cinema, how can we find him at once?
Yamaguchi Shizuo didn't expect that things would take such a big turn. He had already transferred basically everyone in the military police unit, but he still couldn't catch the cunning flame.
Of course, not everyone in the cinema ran out, and a few unlucky ones were detained in the end.
Although Yamaguchi Shizuo knew that they had nothing to do with military rule, the reason why he didn't run away was just because he ran to the end.
However, he still took these people away.
"Why are you arresting us?" One of the Chinese men in a suit said angrily.
"boom!"
Yamaguchi Shizuo was furious, the flames must have escaped, and he was about to kill someone to vent his anger.
One person was killed on the spot, and the others were so frightened that they dared not say a word and followed the gendarmerie detachment obediently.
However, before returning to the military police detachment, Yamaguchi Shizuo saw a fierce fire coming out of No. 22 Combonan Road, which could be seen from several streets away.
"Speed up!" Yamaguchi Shizuo yelled at the driver.
The entire three floors of No. 22 Cumberland Road have been devoured by fire. Even if Yamaguchi Shizuo tried to rush in again, there would be only one result: perished in a sea of flames.
"Is Mr. Nozaki still in there?" Lu Chengzhou got out of the car and looked at the raging fire. Although he felt an indescribable sense of relief in his heart, his face could only show anxiety and worry.
Wearing a mask and playing various roles every day is not only a test for Lu Chengzhou, but sometimes also a kind of torture.
"I hope he's okay." Yamaguchi Shizuo murmured.
Lu Chengzhou ran to the cellar at the back, took out a quilt, put it on his body, walked to the open space, and let the rain soak the quilt.
When the quilt was soaked, Lu Chengzhou covered his whole body with the quilt and rushed into the sea of fire.
Seeing Lu Chengzhou rushing into the building risking his life, Yamaguchi Shizuo also subconsciously wanted to follow him in.
However, just as he reached the door, a sudden burst of hot air rushed him out.
At this moment, Yamaguchi Shizuo was very grateful to Lu Chengzhou.
As a Chinese, Lu Chengzhou's actions moved Yamaguchi Shizuo.
No wonder Nozaki and Hiroshi Kawasaki always believed that Lu Chengzhou was a loyal friend of the Japanese Empire. It was not unreasonable.
After rushing into the sea of fire, Lu Chengzhou rushed all the way to the third floor. In Nozaki's office, he saw Nozaki lying in the middle.
No matter what, Lu Chengzhou dragged Nozaki into the quilt.
Nozaki was already dead, and his whole body was hot, and even exuded a meaty smell like barbecue.
Of course Lu Chengzhou knew where this fragrance came from. He almost vomited out his dinner.
However, no matter what, he had to take Nozaki out. This was his merit.
When Lu Chengzhou came out, he was still holding someone in his arms. Yamaguchi Shizuo felt happy.
However, when he rushed forward, what he saw was a headless corpse.
Yamaguchi Shizuo's body was soaked by the rain. Although the scent was not as strong as before, it could not be covered up for a while.
Yamaguchi Shizuo didn't have as much concentration as Lu Chengzhou, so he suddenly bent over and vomited all the food he had eaten.
Nozaki was dead, and everything in the military police unit was burned to the ground.
"The military commanders must be held accountable for their actions!" Yamaguchi Shizuo shouted to the sky, and all the people captured from the movie theater, regardless of whether they were men or women, or foreigners among them, were shot to death in the military police unit, and they were buried with Nozaki.
The fire lasted until the middle of the night, and it was not over until everything was burned.
