Chapter 1168 The rain stops

Mountain City Beicheng.

The rumbling thunder kept ringing, silver snakes danced wildly in the gloomy sky from time to time, and the majestic rain poured down like the Milky Way, soaking the world in water.

There were only a few pedestrians on the dark street. A man wearing a poncho walked through the raging rain and came to an alley. He looked around carefully, ducked in, and jumped into the passenger seat of the car.

Taking off the hat on his head, the man wiped the rain off his face, nodded to Gui Youguang in the driver's seat, turned around and said hello to Zuo Zhong and Gu Qi who were checking information in the back seat.

"Deputy Director Zuo, Director Gu, my people are ready outside. They are all veteran police officers from Jinling. They have a very clean background."

Zuo Zhong raised his head and looked at the other party with a smile: "Very good, long time no see, Lao Bai. Your people must not make any mistakes today, otherwise I will hold you accountable."

Looking through the flashes of lightning, the person who came was none other than Bai Wenzhi, the director of the Shancheng Police Department. When Zuo Zhong said this, he immediately patted his chest again and promised that if anything went wrong, he would come to see him.

For this operation, the National Police Agency made sufficient preparations. Not only did they carefully select personnel, but they also used their wealth.

The police officers involved in the operation were all equipped with short guns, and some officers were also issued long guns, so they would never lose sight of their firepower.

Moreover, both fixed and mobile checkpoints have been set up at all intersections within a radius of one kilometer. No one is allowed to enter or exit without a special pass from the military commander.

"How to get in?" Zuo Zhong suddenly interrupted.

The landlord drew a detailed schematic diagram for us. In the second picture of the document, he revealed that the house had not been decorated or renovated. He had visited it ten days ago. You see, the landlord was there. "

"The registration at the police station shows that there is a man and a woman living in the house. They moved to Shancheng from Qicheng a month ago. The man works as a clerk in a goods store, and the woman has no fixed occupation and has little contact with her neighbors.

Gui Youguang glanced at his watch and explained his arrangement: "The area where the target is located will lose power in two minutes. I sent a few operational experts to secretly monitor the movements in the house.

Pretending not to notice, Zuo Zhong continued to ask about the target and the layout of the house where he was located. This was related to the success of the next operation and must be clarified.

The opponent needs lighting to decipher and search for the code book. If the lights are turned off, no matter whether the opponent comes out to confirm safety or makes other actions, the observers can take the opportunity to determine the enemy's distribution. "

However, it is understandable that in a city as big as Shancheng, thousands of people buy paper every day, and there are no clear clues. It is not easy for Wu Chunyang to find the target.

So even if we don't get past Jiang Long, it's still a matter of time before we find the target. Chunyang and the others will be able to find out the other party sooner or later.

As he said that, Gui Youguang pointed outside the car. Upon seeing this, a man a few meters away immediately took off his melon cap and bowed deeply towards the car. He was then dragged away by several spies.

When Gui Youguang heard the question, he turned around and replied, "Yes, in addition to the clue provided by Guo Changlong, there are also discoveries in paper tracing.

Zuo Zhong smiled softly, indicating that he was satisfied with Bai Wenzhi's answer. After all, he couldn't ask too much of these gangsters. Then he asked Gui Youguang another question.

Deputy, arrest them! The enemy may find the code book at any time. If the information is leaked, there will be no point in catching the person. "

The small courtyard where the two rented has three main rooms, with a living room in the middle, a bedroom on the east side, and a study room on the west side. There is also a kitchen on the east side of the courtyard, with no back door and a brick and wood structure.

There has just been feedback from the first place that the male residents there have purchased paper from several stores many times in the past two days, and the amount is enough for ordinary people to use for a whole year.

Zuo Zhong glanced at Gui Youguang with a half-smile, "It's not easy. This stubborn guy has now learned to cover for others."

Gui Youguang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself, Wu Chunyang, Wu Chunyang, I am very interested in you, and he reported the information that he had found out.

"With light, can the target be determined?"

Whether it was Guo Changlong who reported first, or whether Wu Chunyang discovered the suspicious person first, the answer is obvious.

"The activity range of the two targets is four houses and two people. If you can't determine the house where the other person is, you can't control the target immediately."

As the person in charge of this case, Gu Qi flipped through the information and found the schematic diagram of the house. After reading it, he asked a question.

The big bald man is the commander of this capture operation. In this kind of close-range fighting, life and death are only a matter of seconds. A specially trained special operations team is the most suitable executor.

"blasting!"

Gui Youguang said categorically, and then explained the reason for doing so.

"I have seen it on the spot. There is only one exit in the yard, and there are residents on both sides. I cannot rule out the possibility that there is an enemy observation post in it, so I can only enter through the main entrance.

However, there is a distance of nearly eight meters from the courtyard gate to the main body of the house. It takes at least several seconds for operators to climb over the wall or break through the door. The target has enough time to organize a defense, so blasting is the best option.

Once the target room is determined, we will set up explosives on the wall outside the room, and then go directly in to arrest people after blasting. The smoke and dizziness generated by the explosion are also beneficial to the operation.

To be on the safe side, the other two houses were used as the second and third targets and were controlled by blasting methods. At the same time, a group of people entered through the courtyard gate and launched an attack from the front. "

When Gui Youguang introduced the action plan, a small agent stood by the telephone pole, looked at his watch, and pulled the knife with force.

In an instant, the power supply to the entire residential area was cut off, and the lights in the homes of hundreds of residents were extinguished. A few shouts and curses were faintly heard from above the alley, but silence soon returned.

Due to the Japanese bombing and the sharp increase in electricity consumption, power outages are a normal thing in mountain towns, and people have long been used to it.

But this is absolutely bad news for the Japanese spies who are trying to decipher the secret code files and try to find the code book.

"Baga!" Handa cursed in a low voice, got up from the dark bedroom, groped his way to the window, opened a corner of the thick felt curtain, and watched cautiously for a while.

The reason for being so careful is that according to the requirements of the national air defense regulations, all residences and institutions must close their curtains at night to prevent the lights from attracting Japanese bombers.

This is a special method for special periods, and everyone must abide by it. If the curtains are fully opened, if a sudden call occurs during the period and the light leaks out, it will be in trouble.

Handa didn't want to provoke the patrolling Republic of China military police. Once the books, deciphering drafts and weapons in the house were discovered, their identities would be exposed.

After watching furtively for a long time, the courtyard was quiet as usual. Still a little worried, he walked out of the main room holding an umbrella, opened the courtyard door and looked around. After making sure it was safe, he turned and walked back to the bedroom.

At this time, the female spy Yamaguchi in the house took a match and lit the kerosene lamp. When Handa came in, he asked if it was safe.

"Safety."

Handa spoke in a relaxed tone and closed the bedroom door with his backhand. Inadvertently, a faint light shone on the floor of the living room.

A hundred meters away, a military spy holding a telescope accurately captured the fleeting light, then slowly retreated from the roof and ran towards the direction of the light.

Twenty minutes later.

Under the kerosene lamp, the female spy Yamaguchi sat in front of the table. On the table were a miscellaneous book taken from the bookstore and a code base file. There was also a loaded pistol beside her.

Her eyes raised slightly from time to time, and she compared the code on the bottom of the secret code with the content of the book to decipher, and wrote quickly on the manuscript paper with the pen in her hand.

After writing a few words, Yamaguchi found that these words could not form usable content. He threw the book aside with a heavy expression, then picked up another one and continued to decipher.

They had been doing this kind of work all day, and only one-third of the more than two hundred books they had brought back from the scene were left. It must be said that they were a bit unlucky.

"Damn that woman!"

Handa next to him also threw a book and cursed the female military agent in the bookstore. If it weren't for the other party, they wouldn't be trapped here, looking for the code book at the risk of being exposed at any time.

Yamaguchi heard the words and sneered disdainfully. Although he was an enemy, the courage shown by his colleague from the Republic of China was admirable. Thinking of those eyes that stared at death, she was silent for a few seconds and lowered her head to decipher again.

"2464, 4635, 1594, 4116."

"People, country, three, ten..."

The pen in Yamaguchi's hand suddenly stopped, with a look of ecstasy on his face, he found it! The codebook was found!

In order to ensure accuracy, she suppressed her excitement and finished deciphering the secret message. A message for a printing factory to apply for daily necessities appeared on the manuscript paper.

"Handa, hurry up, clean up the scene, arrange the timed burning device, and meet with Mr. Lieutenant Colonel immediately."

Picking up the code book and stuffing it into his arms, Yamaguchi hurriedly gave the order and reached for the pistol on the table, preparing to evacuate from here.

The thunder continued outside the house, and the sound of rain covered up all the sounds. Outside the back wall separated from the bedroom, two teams of black figures clung to the wall, quietly arriving at the intended attack position.

Gui Youguang stood in the darkness wearing a half-length raincoat. His tall figure blocked the incoming wind and rain. The rainwater flowed down from the brim of his hat and formed a water line.

Looking at the time, he nodded vigorously to the agent at the front of the team. The agent responded with a gesture and moved forward to hide, placed an item wrapped in oilcloth under the wall and stepped back.

Handa in the room didn't care about Yamaguchi's tone at this moment, and hurriedly got up to get the explosives, but as soon as he raised his buttocks, his whole body was severely knocked away by an invisible wave of air.

"boom!!!"

"Quick, control the target!"

With a loud noise, a large hole was opened in the north wall of the bedroom, Gui Youguang's roar sounded, and a large number of heavily armed agents burst into the house holding pistols and submachine guns.

Lying on the ground, Yamaguchi's ears were ringing, and her eyes were dazzled by the flashlight light. She knew very well that she had been discovered by the intelligence agency of the Republic of China. Damn Handa, damn foolproof.

Looking at the people of the Republic of China who were so close, a handsome face appeared in her mind for some reason. What a wonderful fate.

More than twenty hours ago, he watched the other party die, and more than twenty hours later, the other party's boss will also watch him die.

The next moment, Yamaguchi raised his pistol without hesitation, instead of pointing it at the military commander, he pointed it at his own jaw and pulled the trigger.

Blood spattered, and her head fell heavily to the ground. Her eyes, which were gradually losing their luster, reflected a pair of military boots. Her auditory nerves, which were about to stop working, sent back the last words intermittently.

"One person was shot in the head. He was sent to the hospital quickly. One person is safe. He was searched and brought back to the station to check the scene!"

Damn Handa!

Thoughts flashed through his mind, Yamaguchi's breathing became rapid and difficult, and his consciousness fell into boundless darkness.

At the same time, somewhere in the mountain city, the scar-faced man seemed to have dreamed of something. He woke up from his sleep and looked out the window dripping with sweat.

The rain actually stopped.
