Zhang Bingzhou and the young and tall Li Moqiao walked down the stairs together, exited the Central Military Commission gate and walked towards the parking lot.
They all saw their driver standing next to the car.
21-34
Last night, Mr. Makino pointed at the driver and said gently: "General Zhang, tomorrow, this man will be your driver and will take you to the National Day meeting."
Zhang Bingzhou glared at him sternly, "What do you want to do! You said you would not bring any danger to me!"
Tingji still smiled gently and said softly: "I guarantee that it will not bring you any danger. Think about it, after he sent you to the back door of Yangtze Hotel, he drove into the parking lot and waited there. He didn't do anything.
Can’t do it!”
Zhang Bingzhou still glared at him sternly, "In this case, why should he drive the car instead?"
Yingji said softly: "He is an observer, observing the situation there. Finally, he will drive you home. This is his task. General Zhang, you are very important, I promise not to bring you any danger!"
We will not do loss-making business!”
Zhang Bingzhou stared at Mr. Makino for a while, then looked back at the suspicious driver, but in the end, he nodded! Due to the situation, it was impossible for him not to nod!
21-35
At this time, the driver was standing next to the car and looked at Zhang Bingzhou respectfully.
Seeing Zhang Bingzhou walking to the car, the driver hurriedly came over to open the door for him, and even reached over his head to prevent him from touching the door frame!
The car started to move and left the parking lot of the Military Commission.
Zhang Bingzhou turned around and looked at his adjutant Li Moqiao. To be honest, it was absolutely impossible for them to believe Mr. Makino's words! But what could the driver do if he stayed in the parking lot!
Adjutant Li Moqiao whispered: "Sir, let's check the situation when we get there!"
Zhang Bingzhou nodded and said no more.

Yangtze Hotel, side passage.
Yoshino didn't expect that the Miss Sun next to him was not only sharp-tongued, but also had a pretty face.
She opened her bright red mouth and made many pleas, and finally the stern-faced officer relaxed.
He said, "Wait a minute, I'm going to ask for instructions!" After saying that, he turned around and left.
Yoshino quietly glanced at his watch and felt that there might not be enough time!
At 8:15, the serious-looking officer finally came back and said: "You can only take pictures for fifteen minutes! When the time is up, leave here immediately! Do you understand? Tell me! Do you understand?"
Yoshino first smiled and said: "Sir, we understand, we understand."
Other reporters also took advantage of the situation and said: "I understand, I understand, we will definitely leave when the time comes."
The officer glanced at his watch and added: "Fifteen minutes!"
After he finished speaking, he opened the wooden fence and let the reporters pass.
21-37
As soon as they arrived behind the Yangtze Hotel, the reporters started taking pictures in all directions. Some took pictures of the back door of the hotel, some of the entrance to the small street, and some of the soldiers guarding the hotel.
Yoshino carefully chose where to stand while taking photos.
At this time, some officers had arrived by car. Their cars were being inspected at the street intersection. The soldiers looked in the car, then in the luggage compartment, and then waved the car through.
The car drove to the back door of the hotel, the officer got out of the car and went directly into the back door. The driver drove to the parking lot.
Yoshino took off the satchel from his shoulder, held it in his hand, and gradually approached the back door of the hotel.
Finally, he saw the car he was waiting for.
The car was first inspected at the street entrance, and then slowly drove to the back door of the hotel.
The driver stopped the car, got out quickly, and opened the door for Chief Zhang behind him.
When he saw Chief Zhang and his adjutant walking towards the back door, he reached out and picked up a black satchel from his seat.
Yoshino slowly walked past the car. The driver used the cover of the car door to hand him the satchel in his hand, and at the same time took the identical black canvas satchel from his hand.
The driver got in the car and drove away to the parking lot.
Yoshino carried the satchel calmly and walked a few steps before hanging it on his shoulder.
The adjutant standing inside the back door kept staring at the driver. He walked back to Zhang Bingzhou and whispered: "The driver drove to the parking lot. The guard said that the drivers are staying in the parking lot and are not allowed to come out!"
Zhang Bingzhou nodded to him, turned around and walked into the hall.
At this time, many officers had arrived in the hall, gathering to greet each other and chatting.
Outside the back door, a serious-looking officer finally came over and said loudly: "Reporters, please leave here now! Please leave now!"
Yoshino was carrying a black canvas satchel, chatting and laughing with Miss Sun, and returned to the conference venue.
21-38
At 8:10, at the mass entrance.
Groups of people holding flags, carrying banners and waving small colorful flags came over talking and laughing.
They are all people organized by various police stations. The requirements of the city police station are very clear. They must be people they know and understand, and who have never committed any crime! Therefore, the people who lead these people are police officers from various police stations.
Under the shouts of the police, these people lined up in several long lines, waiting for the soldiers to check and search at the entrance. They were all very happy, laughing and saying hello to each other, as if they were here for fun.
Han Jindong stood on the street, staring at these people talking and laughing loudly, hoping to find a suspicious person among them!
Qiao Yanfang patted him on the shoulder from behind, "Old Han, there's no need to stare so hard! I guess the Japanese won't go this way."
Han Jindong turned around and saw Chen Zifeng waving to him over there, so he walked over while rubbing his tired eyes.
Chen Zifeng looked at the officers around him, his mouth almost tilted to his ears, and said: "No need to keep an eye on people! The Japanese are all slippery! They have already seen how we will defend ourselves! So! So! Damn it!"
Think about it! What else will they do! What will be their next step! It’s best to figure out their next step!”
These officers all looked distressed. Chen Zifeng's request was more difficult than picking the moon from heaven!
21-39
At 8:15, the crowd was like a river, pouring into the venue slowly but unstoppably.
The venue suddenly became lively and crowded, and chatter and laughter erupted like a tide. More flags fluttered in the venue, like an ocean.
Chen Zifeng and others walked slowly forward along the edge of the venue. They knew there would be no result, but their scrutinizing gaze was to sweep over the noisy and laughing crowd.
When they were about to reach the rostrum, they saw Duan Zegang in a neat and straight military uniform, with his hands behind his back and glaring at them sternly, as if he was about to accuse them of dereliction of duty!
Chen Zifeng stopped in front of him, thought again and again, and finally said: "Sir, we all believe that the Japanese will cause trouble in the venue! This is for sure!"
Duan Zegang's tone became more severe, "You mean you don't know what trouble the Japanese are going to cause!"
At this moment, Chen Zifeng was speechless. The situation in front of him was very serious! They all believed that the Japanese wanted to cause trouble in the venue, but it was definitely not their main purpose! The Japanese just wanted to lead to the next step! But they just didn't want to
Know what's next for the Japanese! Damn it, this is remiss!
At this time, not even Qiao Yanfang dared to make fun of Duan Zegang.
She whispered: "Brother, please be more careful about the safety of the Chairman. Brother, I beg you!"
Duan Zegang looked at her and was speechless!
Chen Zifeng, the gendarmerie, has done their best! From the beginning of the "Barrel Plan" to the current "Operation Broken Hoop"! They have also experienced many dangers! The explosion in Shibanpo Village made it obvious that they were also targets of the Japanese!
Duan Zegang understood all this! He finally said: "I can protect the Chairman today, but what's the next step! I simply don't know how to protect him! You all think about it, is this the case?" He stared at the few in front of him one by one.
personal!
Chen Zifeng was speechless and could only turn his head and glare at Xiao Ancheng! It seemed that this was the only move he had!
He didn't expect that Leng Yue next to him also pushed Xiao Ancheng, as if asking him to speak!
Xiao Ancheng looked at Leng Yue, then at Chen Zifeng, then turned to Duan Zegang and said, "Sir, if you can protect the Chairman through this day, maybe we can guess the Japanese's next move!"
Duan Zegang stared at him, "You mean, today is very important!"
Xiao Ancheng whispered: "Yes, sir, today is very critical! You are the first to bear the brunt!"
Duan Zegang stared at them and finally said: "I will fulfill my responsibility and I will never take a step back!"
He turned to leave, but Xiao Ancheng asked the last question: "Sir, when will the chairman arrive?"
Duan Zegang turned back and stared at him, and finally said: "At half past eight, the Chairman attended the morning meeting at the official residence and listened to briefings on battlefields from various places! At ten past nine, the Chairman set off by car and expected to be here in twenty minutes! At this time
, no one knows! I am telling you now just to make you aware of it!"
At this time, although Chen Zifeng and others looked at him dumbfounded, their eyes were spinning like glass balls!
Duan Ze just glanced at them and couldn't help but wonder. What did these thieves think of again!

8:20, Chairman's Residence.
The atmosphere in the official residence is a bit tense. Everyone knows that the Japanese may cause trouble in today's venue!
Outside the gate of the official residence, in the corridor, and at the entrance of the stairs, the guards stood tall and straight, staring motionlessly at the officers hurriedly passing by.
Zhang Yuzhong stood outside the door of the living room, glancing at his watch from time to time.
Director Lin Wei turned from the corridor, walked to him, looked at his watch, and asked in a low voice: "Can I go in advance?"
Zhang Yuzhong shook his head and also whispered: "The Chairman is talking to Chairman Lin, listen."
Director Lin listened carefully and heard laughter coming from the living room.
He couldn't help but say: "The chairman is sure!"
21-41
In the living room, the Chairman and Chairman Lin Sen were sitting on adjacent large sofas, having a pleasant conversation.
