Chapter 31 is a ruthless person.
Chapter 31 is a ruthless person.
Tell me more about this person.
Shen Mozhou immediately asked, and Lu Mingxuan, without much thought, told Shen Mozhou everything he knew about Su Yuncheng.
"Does he also know Director Delon?"
Upon hearing the crucial point, Shen Mozhou immediately asked, while Lu Mingxuan nodded: "That's right, but Dilang is a stubborn and inflexible person, difficult to deal with. I don't know how Su Yuncheng managed to make Dilang look at him differently."
"I understand. Tomorrow, you will go to the hospital with Su Yuncheng as usual. Don't let anyone know that I came. I will arrange for someone to contact you later."
Shen Mozhou stood up, and the young man next to him returned the pistol to Lu Mingxuan.
Lu Mingxuan was someone the Special Service Department bribed at a high price; they wouldn't let anything happen to him easily.
"Yansheng, let's investigate this Su Yuncheng tomorrow."
Back in the safe house, Shen Mozhou immediately gave orders to the young man beside him.
"Yes, teacher."
Chen Yansheng replied that he understood the investigation would not be handled by the Shanghai station; clearly, the teacher had taken an interest in this young man named Su Yuncheng.
With deep ties to the Japanese and being a junior member of the Green Gang, Su Yuncheng certainly deserves their attention.
Late at night, Endo arrived at the hospital.
He was tasked with transferring Hu Bang'an, as there were too many people watching the hospital during the day, so he could only come at night.
Cao Lijun, along with six skilled fighters, had been hiding in the shadows for a long time.
"Prepare for action."
Cao Lijun was carrying two pistols. They hadn't brought rifles for this operation; they would leave after killing the people, as rifles were inconvenient.
Each person carried two guns and two extra magazines.
They were all armed with Mauser pistols. Cao Lijun didn't use the Browning pistols he was issued. The Mauser pistols were not very accurate, but they had a lot of firepower. Even if they encountered Japanese soldiers, they would still be able to fight back.
In addition, each person carried three grenades, which provided sufficient firepower.
After killing the man, they would leave immediately. As for the mission to rescue Hu Bang'an, Cao Lijun had already changed it to an assassination.
"Team leader, something's up."
Just as they were about to set off, the team member in charge of guard duty suddenly returned and reported in a low voice.
"What happened?" Cao Lijun asked immediately.
"Two cars just arrived, and a few people got out."
The subordinate quickly reported that they were hiding in the shadows in a small area, which was strictly controlled by the Japanese community. It was already difficult to find such a hiding place.
"Who are they, and what are they doing here?"
Cao Lijun was taken aback. Someone was coming?
"I don't know." His subordinate shook his head, and Cao Lijun didn't ask any further questions.
"Keep an eye on them, and make your move as soon as they leave."
After thinking for a moment, Cao Lijun decided not to act rashly. It was late at night, and most people were asleep. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that no one was around to force his way into the hospital.
If anyone were there, it would easily startle the others inside. This is Japanese territory, and there are Japanese soldiers patrolling around.
Once they are surrounded, none of them can escape.
"What if they don't leave?" one of the team members asked.
"If we don't leave, we'll wait until they fall asleep before we make our move."
Cao Lijun glared at him. If he really didn't leave or sleep, it would definitely affect their operation tonight.
"Captain, the person has been brought out."
Inside the hospital, several people carried a stretcher to the truck outside.
They didn't use an ambulance for the transfer; they just used a regular truck.
Endo only needs to bring the person back to the Special Higher Police.
Hu Bang'an remains unconscious; a bullet struck his nerve, and even the doctors cannot guarantee whether he will wake up.
"Go back right away."
Endo waved his hand and got into the car in front. Outside the hospital, the team members who were keeping watch went back to report to Cao Lijun.
"Did they carry someone?"
Cao Lijun was slightly taken aback, but immediately understood that the Japanese were unable to withstand the pressure and wanted to transfer Hu Bang'an.
"Thank goodness! We'll wait at the door. As soon as the car comes out, everyone throw me a grenade. You guys provide cover..."
Seizing the opportunity, Cao Lijun immediately assigned combat missions.
[Boom!]
As soon as the two vehicles drove out of the hospital gate, Cao Lijun and his seven men rushed out, each throwing seven grenades. One of the grenades exploded on the truck's wheel, rendering the truck immobile.
[Bang bang bang]
Intense gunfire erupted as Mauser pistols fired rapidly, forcing the Japanese in the two vehicles to keep their heads down.
"Team leader, it's Hu Bang'an."
One of the men opened the truck, shone a flashlight on the person on the stretcher, and immediately recognized him.
They were on a mission and had seen Hu Bang'an's photos.
[Bang bang]
Cao Lijun was a ruthless man; after firing several shots, he threw a grenade onto the car.
He didn't think about saving people, but now that he's alerted the Japanese, it won't be easy for them to escape, let alone carry someone away.
His mission was accomplished by killing Hu Bang'an.
"Withdraw as planned."
"We killed someone," Cao Lijun shouted. They ran and fired as they went, each emptying two pistol magazines.
The remaining two magazines are enough for them to evacuate.
Cao Lijun ran very fast. By the time the Japanese soldiers patrolling in the distance came to reinforce him, he had already led his men far away.
With the enemy gone, Endo finally got off the train.
He didn't pursue Cao Lijun; instead, he immediately went to check on Hu Bang'an's situation.
It doesn't matter if Hu Bang'an dies during the transfer or when the shipment reaches the Special Higher Police; that's not his responsibility.
But if he were rescued, he would be in big trouble.
"Captain, Hu Bang'an is dead."
Hu Bang'an was already seriously injured, and after being shot several times at close range, a grenade exploded next to him. He was now dead.
"Get the injured brothers to the hospital immediately, then we'll head back to the Special Higher Police."
Endo breathed a slight sigh of relief. It was much better to be dead than to be rescued. They had never admitted to capturing Hu Bang'an. If Hu Bang'an was rescued from here, all the previous lies would be exposed.
Not only the team leader, but also the section chief will suffer.
As the person in charge, he's definitely the first to take the blame.
The gunfire in the Japanese quarter did not affect Su Yuncheng, and he slept soundly that night.
Su Yuncheng wasn't worried after not dreaming about the future for two consecutive days; such dreams of seeing the future were rare and hard to come by.
The things he's dreaming about now have already told him a lot of important information.
However, Su Yuncheng did yearn to see more of the future, a beautiful and promising world.
"Yuncheng".
Not long after arriving at the newspaper office, before he had even had a chance to look at today's paper, Lu Mingxuan walked in.
"Brother Lu, why did you come in person?"
Su Yuncheng immediately got up. He had planned to finish his work at the newspaper office before going to the police station to find Lu Mingxuan.
He had arranged to meet Zhitian at 10 o'clock, and it was still early.
"Let's go early to avoid traffic jams."
To get to the hospital in the Japanese quarter, one has to pass through the International Settlement, but the chances of traffic jams are not too high. Lu Mingxuan wanted to get to the hospital as soon as possible to observe the situation.
Su Yuncheng sensed his emotions, understood what was going on, and immediately stood up:
"Okay, let's go now."
As the two left the newspaper office together, Su Yuncheng immediately sensed that they were secretly watching him.
