Chapter 41 Sharing the Blessings
Lu Xiong was familiar with the road and drove quite fast. Soon he arrived at Chaoyang Road and parked the car in a small alley.
Xiang Chu immediately ordered: "Brothers! Our target today is the 'Good Luck' grocery store. Ning Qiang! You lead four people to block the front door of the grocery store. Lu Xiong! You lead three people to block the back door. Don't let anyone go. Anyone who escapes will be killed without mercy, but don't kill them.
Zhang Linmao! You are responsible for watching the car. I will go to the platform, act immediately, be careful. "
Ning Qiang said anxiously: "Sir! Isn't it too few for you to go alone?"
Lu Xiong also said, "Sir! Should we wait until you reach the platform before taking action?"
"Quite a lot! No need!"
Xiang Chu said confidently.
He pushed open the car door, climbed onto the roof, and then jumped onto the platform.
Such a swift movement stunned the team members.
"Move quickly!"
Xiang Chu shouted downwards.
"Yes!"
The members of the action team reacted, jumped out of the car hurriedly, and ran to the front and back doors of the "Good Luck" grocery store.
There are many shops on Chaoyang Road, but there are still gaps between the rooftop platforms of the shops.
However, the widest is only a little over 2 meters, and the most common is 1 meter, with some even connected to walls.
Xiang Chu looked at the action team members running below and jumped onto a rooftop platform.
The action team members below have rushed into the "Good Luck" grocery store and started shouting loudly.
"Everyone, don't move. Anyone who moves will be killed."
Xiang Chu was hiding outside the door of the "Good Luck" grocery store platform, holding an M1911 Browning pistol.
The front and back doors of the grocery store were blocked, and it was in chaos inside with people shouting and yelling.
Not long after, Xiang Chu heard hurried footsteps coming from inside the platform door.
A man in a grey robe, carrying a long box in one hand and a gun in the other, kicked the door open and rushed onto the platform.
Xiang Chu rushed forward at lightning speed and hit him on the neck with the butt of his gun.
Although this man is disguised by a beard, it is certain that he is Takeo Ishikawa.
Xiang Chu hurriedly checked and took off the potassium cyanide bag on his collar, but there was no tooth in his mouth that could hide potassium cyanide.
Only then did he open the long box, and inside was a Japanese Type 97 sniper rifle equipped with a 4x optical sight.
Xiang Chu was overjoyed and quickly closed the long box.
He looked at the platform and saw a pile of broken branches and leaves against the wall, all of which had fallen from a large sycamore tree on the roof.
Xiang Chu hurriedly picked up the long box and hid it among the branches.
Then he picked up the pistol, which was a Southern-style pistol.
"Sir! Are you okay?"
Ning Qiang, Mi Shengqi and others rushed up shouting and yelling.
When everyone saw that Takeo Ishikawa had been subdued, they immediately smiled happily.
Ning Qiang praised: "Sir! You are really amazing."
"You guys are not bad either!"
Xiang Chu smiled and pointed at Ishikawa Takeo and said:
"Tie up this Japanese spy and take him away to search for valuables."
"Yes!"
Everyone accepted the order in unison.
They knew that meeting a good leader like Xiang Chu would definitely bring them benefits.
Ning Qiang and Mi Shengqi took out ropes and tied up Takeo Ishikawa tightly.
Xiang Chu waited until the team members escorted Takeo Ishikawa off the platform before following them down the stairs.
There were several members of the operation team searching the rooms on the second floor, so he went down the stairs to the grocery store on the first floor.
There were two people who were shopping in the grocery store and they were trapped during the arrest operation.
At this time, Lu Xiong was interrogating them strictly.
Xiang Chu took a look and saw that one was a man in his 60s and the other was a woman in her 50s. They were trembling with fear and speaking incoherently. It was obvious that they were not Japanese spies. He smiled and said:
"Old Lu! Please register their names and addresses, and make sure they don't say anything nonsense. Then put your fingerprints on them and let them go!"
"Yes!"
Lu Xiong nodded hurriedly.
Soon, the two civilians left, and Xiang Chu shouted:
"Brothers! Search carefully to see if there is any radio, code book, or money."
"Yes!"
The team members responded in unison.
However, after searching for a long time, not only did they fail to find the radio and code book, they didn't even find any money.
Of course, there were still a few hundred French francs and some silver dollars on the counter, which Mi Shengqi quietly stuffed into Xiang Chu's pocket.
Xiang Chu didn't pay any attention to it. He was really discouraged and was about to pack up.
"Sir! We found something good in the wall of the toilet."
Ning Qiang ran down the stairs, holding a small black suitcase.
He placed the suitcase at Xiang Chu's feet and said with a smile:
"There's a lot of money in it, and even gold bars. Hehehe!"
Xiang Chu asked: "Is there nothing else in the wall of the toilet?"
"No! It stinks."
Ning Qiang also rubbed his nose hard.
Needless to say, the box also smelled bad.
Xiang Chu pointed at the box and said, "Open it!"
Ning Qiang opened the suitcase and found three stacks of French currency inside, totaling 3 yuan.
There were also some 5 strings of jewels, 6 large yellow croakers, and 10 small yellow croakers.
Xiang Chu shouted loudly: "Brothers! Share the blessing! Divide all the currency here equally among you. I will give the jewelry and yellow croakers to the two directors. No one is allowed to tell anyone."
"Sir, you are so kind!"
All the action team members cheered in unison.
They had found a lot of valuables before, but the leading officers had detained them all in the name of handing them over, so they never got any. They didn't expect Xiang Chu to let them share it all right from the start.
As for jewelry and gold, they dared not ask for them.
The average score is the best, no one will complain about who has too much.
Ning Qiang found a small suitcase in the grocery store, washed and dried the gold and jewelry, packed them up, and handed them to Xiang Chu.
"He's a rough man but careful! Not bad."
Xiang Chu couldn't help but praise him, took the suitcase and said,
"Lu Xiong! Mi Shengqi! You two stay here and pretend to be servants. If there are any Japanese spies coming, arrest them directly."
"Yes!"
Lu Xiong and Mi Shengqi happily accepted the order.
The money from selling the goods naturally goes into my pocket.
Ning Qiang said with a smile: "Sir! Can we have a little bit of the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sugar, tea, pots, bowls, and utensils?"
Xiang Chu glanced at his greasy face and nodded, "If anyone needs anything, come and get it after get off work, but don't eat it in a bad manner. Let's go! Take the spy back to the office. Oh, and bring some wine, tea, candy, etc. to honor the captain."
"Thank you, sir!"
The team members cheered.
In order to understand the current situation, Xiang Chu used a public phone to call Ning Changde's office.
"Director! I just caught a Japanese spy on Chaoyang Road."
"Really? That's great! You really bring honor to our CC department."
Ning Changde said happily, paused, and gossiped,
"Xiao Xiang! That guy is in big trouble. Haha!"
Xiang Chu didn't have time to talk to him on the phone, so he smiled and said:
"Director! I have seized some gold and jewelry and am sending them to you. You are not leaving the office right away, are you?"
Ning Changde was overjoyed when he heard this and said hurriedly:
"No! No! Come here quickly."
