Farmers in the courtyard

Chapter 119 Chapter 120: Shoot if you can’t catch up

Nanluogu Lane, the intersection of Maoer Hutong and Beibingmasi Hutong.

On the dark side of the road, there are eight gangsters hiding. They are all young men with strong bodies. They are all sleeping on the three-wheeled carts at the moment.

Covered with dark felts, all of them had messy hair and were poorly dressed.

It seemed that they were used to nights like this.

Indeed, there are many coolies who sleep directly on carts like this. Not all those who go to the city to do odd jobs have a private home like Cai Quanwu.

It is impossible to spend money to rent a house, so no one cares about these people sleeping in the shadows on the roadside, let alone takes care of them.

Even the patrolling militiamen are accustomed to this.

But the eight people sleeping here tonight are not simple. They are on a mission. The leader is called Shen Laosan.

And Shen Laosan is the boss who contacted Xu Zheng.

But till tonight, they haven't seen Wang Zhendong's car come back, and they don't know where Wang Zhendong has gone.

This intersection is the only way for Wang Zhendong to go home.

Shen Laosan felt that tonight's mission might have to be canceled and could only wait until tomorrow night. He guessed that Wang Zhendong might have gone to the eastern suburbs.

Because he knew that Wang Zhendong's wife went to school in the eastern suburbs.

Although there was little hope tonight, he didn't let the brothers disperse. It was already this hour anyway, so there was nothing wrong with sleeping until dawn.

Just guy style, you have to put it away in the morning, send it to a hiding place, and pick it up tomorrow night.

There were not only eight of them, but four at the front and at the back.

It can be said that almost all of them were dispatched.

Because they knew that Wang Zhendong was difficult to deal with. This man had escaped death many times on the battlefield and was more fierce than them.

Last time, Chen Minsheng and his wife were unable to kill Wang Zhendong with two guns at close range, which shows their skills and reactions.

Yes, last time Chen Minsheng and his wife were arrested, Shen Laosan knew all the details.

They also had people at the police stations, because many police stations in Sijiu City during this period were also taken over after liberation.

Many staff members have worked at the police station since the Republic of China.

The name police station also existed during the Republic of China.

How can it be possible for the Forty-Nine Cities with a population of several million to undergo a major overhaul? Most of them are left over from the Republic of China period.

Just like the change of dynasties during Zhu Yuanzhang's time, most of the officials and literati were from the Yuan Dynasty.

Shen Laosan's plan was actually very simple and crude. He saw Wang Zhendong's car and then pretended to block the road accidentally.

Then there was a violent killing. They all had guns. Shen Laosan didn't believe that there were so many guns. If he couldn't kill Wang Zhendong, his car would be damaged.

Wang Zhendong didn't know that there was a murderous intention waiting for him at the intersection in front of his home, but he missed it tonight by some strange combination of circumstances.

Unlocking the door bolt, Wang Zhendong gently pushed open the door of the entrusted store, entered quietly, and slowly closed the door.

After that, he stood quietly and listened carefully inside the shop to see if there was any breathing.

Hearing no breathing, Wang Zhendong slowly groped for the stairs to the second floor.

There is no one downstairs, so the doorman must be on the second floor.

It is impossible for such a commissioned store to have no one checking the store at night.

And He Chuanshan would not let untrustworthy people look at his property, so the people in the store must be his close associates.

After adapting to the darkness, his eyes were able to see dimly, and he soon found the wooden stairs.

Looking at the wooden stairs, Wang Zhendong was a little confused.

Such old stairs will definitely make a sound when people step on them.

It will also alarm the people upstairs.

He raised his foot and stepped on the first step. Sure enough, it was not very hard, but it still didn't have enough weight for the whole person, that's all.If he stepped on it with his whole body, it would definitely be very loud.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to let the people upstairs come down, so he walked to a row of shelves, stretched out his hand and touched it, and touched a porcelain bottle.

Regardless of whether it was an antique or not, he just threw it on the ground. When the porcelain bottle hit the ground, it shattered immediately and made a loud noise.

And he quickly returned to the stairs, hid himself, and waited quietly.

Sure enough, a light came on upstairs, and a man ran downstairs quickly with a flashlight. The wooden stairs creaked as the man stepped on them.

Not sure if there was only one person like this, Wang Zhendong waited for this person to go down to the stairs, knocked him out from behind and sent him into the space.

Then I continued to wait. After a long time, there was no movement upstairs.

But Wang Zhendong did not relax because of this. He felt uneasy, as if there were people upstairs.

I listened carefully to the movement on the floor upstairs, but there was no sound at all.

It's a bit strange, and I also wonder if I am suspicious.

But he believed in his intuition. There must be someone upstairs, and he was a very cunning and cautious person.

The person who came downstairs just now was probably just a little guy.

At this moment, Wang Zhendong heard a sound coming from upstairs. He was a little confused about what the sound was, but soon he realized that it was the sound of a window latch, and the people upstairs were trying to run away from the window.

Immediately, he quickly ran towards the door. When he rushed out, a black figure jumped down from the window upstairs.

And when he landed, he rolled on the spot to relieve the force of the fall, raised his legs and ran wildly. Wang Zhendong also ran after him without stopping.

He could see that the man who jumped down from the building was very skilled and should be a martial artist, so while he was chasing him, a gun appeared in his hand.

It’s John White’s 1911.

Of course, he didn't want to shoot unless he had to, so he shot because the other person was running too fast. If he didn't shoot, the person would be gone.

In a place like this, there are alleys and alleys everywhere, and you really can’t find it if you run away.

And the consequences are very serious. It is almost impossible to find He Chuanshan after being alerted.

bah...

With just one shot, the man in front of him, who was as fast as a leopard, lost his balance and rolled over for a long distance.

Wang Zhendong also arrived quickly, knocked him unconscious with the butt of his rifle, threw him into the space, and then quickly left the place.

The gunfire alarmed many people nearby, and lights were turned on in some houses.

Wang Zhendong quickly returned to where the car was parked, got in the car and left quickly. He did not enter the city, but went to the alley where the Qianmen Bistro was located.

Looking for a remote place, he entered the space with people and cars.

In the space, in front of the wooden house, Wang Zhendong poured a basin of stream water to wake up the escaped man.

He ignored the one he caught first, and his intuition told him that the one who escaped through the window must be a close associate of He Chuanshan.

As soon as He Hu was aroused by the cold stream, he suddenly woke up with a jolt. The moment he woke up, he turned over and stood up, almost subconsciously.

The severe pain caused by the gunshot wound to his calf made him stagger and fall to the ground again. Then he endured the severe pain and looked around.

His eyes were blank, confused, and incomprehensible.

Finally, he looked at Wang Zhendong, who was a few meters away. The moment he saw Wang Zhendong, He Hu's pupils shrank.

Wang Zhendong discovered this very keenly. From then on, when people saw his reaction, it was obvious that they knew him, and they should be impressed, otherwise there would be no stress reaction of pupil contraction.

But he was very unfamiliar with this person and saw it for the first time.

This shows what?
Was he being stared at?Is He Chuanshan also related to Chen Minsheng last time?
Or is it that the man in the steel rolling mill has people starting to stare at him?

Otherwise, why would the people in He Chuanshan react like this to him?
