Chapter 135 How to Enter the Warehouse
"Brother Pan, the Shancheng headquarters sent me a radio and asked me to secretly investigate the situation of the Japanese Navy's arsenal from now on. They also asked me to find a way to blow up the arsenal as soon as possible!"
In a coffee shop on Wuyuan Road, Yuan Cheng and Pan Guozhan were drinking coffee and talking in low voices.
"Great! This shows that Boss Dai has not given up on you. Now is the period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. We must secretly cooperate with Shancheng and blow up the Japanese arsenal." Pan Guozhan said excitedly.
"As for Consul Hatto at the consulate, you must tell the truth. The Japanese will definitely ask you to pass on false information. When the time comes, you can handle it carefully according to the situation. Your own safety comes first."
Later, Pan Guozhan added.
Yuan Cheng nodded, and the two left the coffee shop.
Yuan Cheng hid the radio at home and called Hatano Eiji again.
"Yoshi! Actually, the Sifu Warehouse is already an open secret, but it's harder to get close to it than to climb to the sky. You can provide some information according to Shancheng's requirements, and give us the situation outside the Sifu Warehouse to see what they plan to do next. You can't come to the consulate anymore. Starting tomorrow, you will continue to work at the Shanghai Daily News."
On the phone, Hatano Eiji said happily.
"Yes! Consul Hatten, I will report relevant information to you at any time." Yuan Cheng hung up the phone after saying that.
After Zhang Xiansheng received Yuan Cheng's call back, he immediately went to Boss Dai's office, handed Yuan Cheng's telegram to Boss Dai, and asked in confusion:
"Boss Dai, do we really have to trust Yuan Cheng?"
"For this kind of multifaceted spy, there is only use, no trust. Sometimes, even though you know it is a trap, you still jump into it without hesitation! Have you set up a dead mailbox for Yuan Cheng?"
Boss Dai looked at Zhang Xiansheng and asked.
"Report to Boss Dai, it has been set up!"
"Send someone to keep a close eye on the mailbox! This is also a test for Yuan Cheng. Don't let the contact know any other secrets." Boss Dai ordered again.
"Yes!" Zhang Xiansheng replied and turned to leave.
The next day, Jiang Yifan came to the Special Higher Section and saw Kudo Ichiya in the action team office, so he stepped forward and asked:
"Kudou-kun, why were you discharged so early? You see, I was so busy that I didn't even have time to visit you in the hospital."
"Shimahashi! I know everyone is busy, otherwise I would not have been discharged from the hospital. It was the section chief who notified me to come back." Kudo looked at Jiang Yifan and replied.
Jiang Yifan thought, it seems that the Japanese are short of manpower, otherwise they would not have allowed Kudo to be discharged from the hospital.
Just then, Miura Miwako also walked in.
Jiang Yifan was surprised and asked, "Secretary Sanpu, you are back to work too?"
"I've been at work the whole time, I was just on a business trip." Miura Miwako answered casually.
Then, Keiko Tanaka also walked into the office and said:
"I have transferred 20 plainclothes military police from the military police. Divide them into two groups. Captain Kunitake and Kurajima Hiro will lead one group, and Shimahashi and Kudo will lead the other group. First, go to the Sifu Warehouse and report to Colonel Sasaki. Then, secretly disperse to the west bank of Suzhou Creek and near the Sifu Warehouse. Arrest all suspicious persons."
"Hayi!"
Kunitake Xiang, Jiang Yifan and the other three stood at attention and bowed to Tanaka Keiko and answered.
Then he walked out of the Special Higher Police and came to the gendarmerie compound, where, as expected, there were twenty plainclothes gendarmes waiting in the compound.
Jiang Yifan and Bang Wuxiang each brought ten plainclothes military policemen, got on two Japanese army trucks, crossed the North Bridge of Suzhou River, and arrived at the west bank of Suzhou River.
Jiang Yifan found that there were still many trucks passing along the road, but there were much fewer than yesterday.
This shows that the Japanese cargo ships had brought in arms and almost all of them had been put into storage.
"Captain Bangwu, how should we arrange it?" Jiang Yifan came to Bangwuxiang and asked.
"Of course, it is centered on the Sifu Warehouse and spreads out in all directions." Kunitake Xiang replied.
"But where is the Sifu warehouse?" Jiang Yifan asked back.
"It's my first time here too. Just follow the trucks transporting ammunition." Kunitake Xiang answered truthfully.
So Jiang Yifan got in the car again, followed a truck and drove towards the Sifu warehouse.
But he didn't go far before he was stopped by several plainclothes officers.
"What do you do?" asked a tall plainclothes officer who was in the lead.
"What do you do?" Bang Wuxiang asked, looking at these plainclothes police officers.
"We are naval agents. Please get out of the car and be inspected." The tall plainclothes officer stepped forward and said.
Only then did Bang Wuxiang get out of the car and handed his ID to the tall plainclothes officer.
The tall plainclothes officer took the ID, glanced at it, and said:
"Special High Section! Yoshi! You stay on the south and east sides of the Sifu warehouse. If you find anyone suspicious, arrest them immediately. If anyone dares to resist, shoot them immediately!"
"Excuse me, who are you? Where is your ID?" Bang Wuxiang took his ID, put it in his pocket, and asked the tall plainclothes officer.
"Yoshi! This is how you should work, be serious and impartial!" The tall plainclothes officer praised Bang Wuxiang, took out his ID and handed it to Bang Wuxiang.
Bang Wu Xiang ignored the tall plainclothes officer's compliments, opened the ID and saw the words "Sasaki Aki". He immediately handed the ID to the tall plainclothes officer with both hands, stood at attention and said:
"Colonel Sasaki, I am here to report to you on the orders of Section Chief Tanaka!"
"Yoshi! I feel relieved that the Special High Section is guarding the south side of the Sifu Warehouse. Captain Bangwu, from now on, this place will be guarded by your Special High Section!"
Sasaki Aki looked at Kunitake Sho and answered.
"Please rest assured, Colonel Sasaki, we will do our best to guard the east and south sides of the Sifu Warehouse." Kunitake Sho stood at attention again and replied.
So, Aki Sasaki took a dozen plainclothes officers and headed towards the Sifu warehouse.
After Sasaki Aki led his men away, Jiang Yifan looked at Kunitake Xiang and asked for his opinion: "Captain Kunitake, how about you guard the south, and Kudo and I will guard the east?"
"Okay! You go to the east, remember! Don't be careless!" Bang Wuxiang finally reminded.
"Understood! Captain!" After saying that, Jiang Yifan directed the truck to drive towards the east of Sifu warehouse.
Because, in Jiang Yifan's mind, the east side of Sifu Warehouse was only separated from Suzhou River by a road, and, if his estimate was correct, the sewer of Sifu Warehouse must be connected to Suzhou River.
If I could sneak into the warehouse secretly through the sewers along Suzhou River...
As Jiang Yifan was thinking this, the truck had already driven along the road outside the wall of Sifu Warehouse and arrived at the east side of the warehouse.
What Jiang Yifan didn't expect was that on this side alone, there were more than fifty Japanese naval soldiers guarding it. If the people he brought with him were included, there would be sixty or seventy people.
It seems that it is too dangerous to enter the warehouse from here!
However, this is the closest passage to the warehouse.
Jiang Yifan fell into deep thought as to how to get in from here.
