Lurker

Chapter 237 Discovery
One of the two tasks that Dai Yu issued to Zhou Lin has already been completed, which is to eliminate rape and kill He Yinglong.

Today, there is still one task left, which is to assassinate the Japanese commander.

This task was very difficult, and Dai Yu did not specify a completion time, so Zhou Lin was not in a hurry for the time being, looking for an opportunity to talk about it.

Zhou Lin felt relaxed, so he went to the Sakura Tea House and drank a pot of good tea.

When he came to the Sakura Tea Club, Zhou Lin didn't go directly to see Tomohisa Yamashita.He came to the second floor, chose a lobby to sit casually, ordered a cup of matcha tea, and a few plates of snacks.

Mocha, also known as matcha in Japan, originated in the Wei and Jin Dynasties of China. Its method is to collect tender tea leaves in spring, steam them, and make them into cake tea (ie group tea) for preservation.When it’s time to eat, put the cake tea on the fire to bake and dry it, then use a natural stone mill to grind it into powder, then pour it into a tea bowl and pour boiling water into it, use a tea whisk to fully stir the tea in the bowl to make it foamy, and then drink it .

Japanese tea ceremony is divided into two "schools": matcha ceremony and sencha ceremony, but matcha ceremony is the most representative, and its number of "disciples" is unmatched by sencha ceremony.

Taking a sip of matcha tea and smelling the fragrance, Zhou Lin was in a particularly happy mood.

It seems that Yamashita Tomohisa bought authentic matcha in the teahouse, and is he thinking about asking him for three catties and five catties, and taking it back to make tea by himself.

If Yamashita Tomohisa knew that Zhou Lin had such an idea, he would definitely scold him.It took him a lot of effort to get ten catties of high-quality matcha. You want three catties and five catties?Can the business of the teahouse be done?
You know, the guests who come to drink tea only have more than one gram of matcha powder in each cup.A catty of matcha can brew three hundred cups.For 300 person-time use.

Thinking of this, Zhou Lin laughed.

Just when he looked up and laughed, Zhou Lin froze.

He saw Tomohisa Yamashita coming out of a box with a person.The two looked very affectionate.

Zhou Lin recognized that person, he is Hashimoto Ryutaro's follower.

Zhou Lin had seen this man three times.One time was by plane from Mudanjiang to Taiwan.Once in Shanghai, Zhou Lin was tried for the Japanese professor.Another time was in Tokyo, when Zhou Lin was on trial.

These three times, this person has been by Hashimoto Ryutaro's side.

How did Hashimoto Ryutaro's followers get mixed up with Yamashita Tomohisa?
The problem in the middle is big!

Zhou Lin got up immediately, went downstairs from the second floor, and walked outside.

He passed the time on the first floor, and heard Tomohisa Yamashita say: "I will think about it, and I will give you an answer within three days."

After Zhou Lin came out, he got into a car.This car had just been replaced with a Japanese military plate by Zhou Lin.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Lin saw that person come out.

After he came out, he looked around and looked back at the teahouse.With a wave of his hand.

Immediately, a person came out from the darkness.

The man pointed to the teahouse and said, "I'm staring at him! See if anyone comes into contact with him."

"Yes!" The man saluted and then disappeared into the dark again.

Zhou Lin was surprised, and Tomohisa Yamashita was under surveillance.

If Yamashita Tomohisa took refuge in Hashimoto Ryutaro, he would not be monitored.Besides, Hashimoto Ryutaro has always wanted to kill Yamashita Tomohisa.

Zhou Lin drove the car and followed the man all the way.Finally, I saw the man driving into the building of the Shanghai Secret Service.

Needless to say, Hashimoto Ryutaro must have come to Shanghai to take up a post.

I remember that when he was in Tokyo, Hashimoto Ryutaro said that he would come to Shanghai in half a year, and now half a year has passed.

Zhou Lin turned around and turned the car to the left road.After getting out of the car, I found that no one was paying attention, so I changed the Japanese military license plate and replaced it with a Shanghai license plate.

Turning around again, Zhou Lin passed the Shanghai secret service and returned to the not far from the Sakura Tea House.

After stopping the car, Zhou Lin went to the Sakura Tea House.Instead of entering through the front door, he turned to the back.

When turning around, Zhou Lin saw people watching from both sides.

Only there is no one behind.Because behind it is a house.There is no door at the back, so you cannot enter or exit the Sakura Teahouse.

However, Zhou Lin knew from Tomohisa Yamashita.Shanshita secretly rented the house in the back as well.And, on the wall, made a secret door.Open the secret door, and you can come and go between the Sakura Teahouse and the house.

Zhou Lin entered the house, found the switch, and when he pressed it, a hole appeared in the wall.

Zhou Lin got into the opening and went out to the Sakura Teahouse.

After closing the secret door, Zhou Lin went to the toilet.I just saw Tomohisa Yamashita in the toilet.

Tomohisa Yamashita was about to ask, but was stopped by Zhou Lin's gesture.

Yamashita understood that the two of them didn't speak, and came to Tomohisa Yamashita's room one after the other, without entering the door.The two looked around before heading to the basement.

After entering the basement, Zhou Lin said to the three special forces members on duty: "Remove the monitoring device, clear the traces, withdraw immediately, and report to Feng Jie."

The three special forces members responded and began to act.

After cleaning soon, Zhou Lin asked Yamashita Tomohisa to take the three of them out through the secret door behind.

More than ten minutes later, Tomohisa Yamashita came back.

"The three of them have left."

After finishing speaking, Tomohisa Yamashita handed Zhou Lin a cigarette and asked, "What happened?"

Zhou Lin took the cigarette and lit it: "Who did you meet half an hour ago?"

Tomohisa Yamashita also lit a cigarette, "That's a Japanese businessman who owns a teahouse in Wuhan. Seeing that the matcha in my teahouse is very good, he wanted to buy a few catties of matcha from me."

Zhou Lin took a puff of cigarette: "Do you know who he is?"

Tomohisa Yamashita said, "He said his name is Ichiro Kawaguchi."

Zhou Lin smiled: "Did he lie to you? His real identity is Hashimoto Ryutaro's follower. Hashimoto has something to do, and he was asked to come forward."

Tomohisa Yamashita dropped the cigarette from his hand: "Really?"

Zhou Lin: "It's more real than real money. Our Lixing Club has information on Hashimoto Ryutaro and his followers."

Yamashita Tomohisa stepped on the cigarette on the ground, turned it around fiercely, and turned the cigarette into dust.

After that, Yamashita took out another cigarette and lit it. "It seems they know about my situation."

Zhou Lin nodded: "They know that you and I are classmates in the Nanjing training class. They think that we must be connected. Because you are a person who fled to China and came to China with no money. How could you buy this teahouse?"

Tomohisa Yamashita calmed down: "At first they wanted to kill me, but with what you said, they wanted to put a long line to catch big fish. Lead you out, catch you or kill you."

"Yes! I guess it's been two days since they discovered your identity. This person should come here to get in touch with you and confirm your identity."

Tomohisa Yamashita asked, "Then what should I do?"

Zhou Lin looked in the basement and found a trace, so he went to clean it up and said, "Don't hesitate! Take your money and leave immediately."

"Where?"

"Let's go to Chongqing! The accompanying capital of the national government will be placed in Chongqing. At this time, the bureaucrats have not moved. You go to Chongqing first, buy land and buildings to do business."

Tomohisa Yamashita looked at Zhou Lin: "Do you want me to be a real businessman?"

Zhou Lin said: "No! Remember, you will always be an agent. At that time, there will be a time when you and I join hands."

"Okay! With your words, I am satisfied. I am waiting for you."

Tomohisa Yamashita and Zhou Lin left the basement together.He went back to the room.Zhou Lin stood guard outside.

Fifteen minutes later, Tomohisa Yamashita came out with a large suitcase.

Seeing Zhou Lin's signal, Tomohisa Yamashita went directly to the secret door.

Zhou Lin followed behind him and also left through the secret door.

The two came to Zhou Lin's car and got into the car.

Zhou Lin immediately drove and sent Yamashita Tomohisa to the pier in the French Concession.

When they arrived, there was a river boat leaving the port half an hour later, heading for Chongqing.

Zhou Lin went to buy a ticket.Tomohisa Yamashita was not asked to buy a boat ticket because he was afraid that the Japanese would find out where Tomohisa Yamashita was.

If he didn't buy a ticket, it means he is still in Shanghai.The Japanese will only be looking for him in Shanghai.In this way, Tomohisa Yamashita won time.

As long as they pass through Nanjing, even if the Japanese know about it, they can't help Tomohisa Yamashita.He is a secret agent, and he will change a lot.It's hard to catch him.

I saw Tomohisa Yamashita's boat leaving the pier.Only then did Zhou Lin drive back.

He and Tomohisa Yamashita set up a radio channel and password for communication.If there is anything, you can call the other party.In fact, it is impossible to contact at the moment.Because the mountain went to Chongqing, we needed to open up the market and take root in Chongqing.

The next day, a group of people came to the Sakura Tea House.The leader is Hashimoto Ryutaro's follower.He asked the foreman, "Where's your boss?"

The foreman said, "The boss has gone to buy some goods."

When the attendant heard this, he felt bad.So he asked the foreman to lead the way and went to Tomohisa Yamashita's room.

After entering the room, the servant felt that the house had been abandoned by the owner.

The furnishings of the house have not been moved, and the quilt on the bed is also neat.It is the cabinets and boxes in the room, which seem to have been turned over by someone.

Moreover, there was nothing of value in the boxes and cabinets.

The attendant asked, "Where is the cash in your teahouse?"

"It will be deposited in the bank every day. Our boss has an account, and every day's income must be deposited into that account."

The attendant asked, "What about your tea?"

"Cheap tea is stored in the tea room. The expensive tea is kept by the boss."

"What about the matcha powder?"

The foreman pointed to a box and said, "It's in that box. Several times, I saw the boss take matcha powder out of that box."

The valet opened the box.There is nothing in the box.Only some scattered tea powder fell on the bottom of the box.

Does the attendant know that Yamashita Tomohisa still has five or six catties of matcha powder in his hands.He also used the excuse of buying matcha powder to identify Tomohisa Yamashita.

It seems that Yamashita Tomohisa recognized himself yesterday's visit.So, last night, Tomohisa Yamashita ran away.

The attendant called over the people who were on duty in the front and left and right.They all said they didn't see Tomohisa Yamashita go out.

After spending more than an hour, the attendant finally found the secret door.
