Chapter 1023 No trace left

Huang Shan brought Xiao Zhang out for dinner in name only, but in reality he asked him to collect the bounty for him.

He squatted down beside a lotus pond, pointed to the decent tailor shop not far away and said:

"Xiao Zhang! The man in black clothes and carrying a black suitcase at the door of the tailor shop is my distant cousin. He has been engaged in speculation since he was a child. I am afraid that he will cause trouble for me, so I don't want to see him.

My family brought something for me, please go get it for me."

Xiao Zhang asked with a smile: "Director! What if he doesn't give it to me?"

Huang Shan smiled bitterly and said, "You said my nickname, and the eel asked you to choose it, so he will give it to you."

Xiao Zhang nodded and said, "I understand!"

Huang Shan looked at his watch and saw that it was still one minute before six o'clock.

The lotus leaves in the lotus pond had grown to the shore, serving just to cover him.

If Xiang Chu had not predicted it in advance, he would never have thought that he was hiding among the lotus leaves.

Soon, Xiao Zhang arrived at the door of the Deti tailor shop.

The man wearing black clothes and a black hat and carrying a black leather suitcase was Wei Feng.

Wei Feng had seen Huang Shan's file photo in advance and didn't even look at Xiao Zhang.

Xiao Zhang said with a smile: "My dear brother, I was sent by your cousin Eel to get his things."

Wei Feng said unhappily, "Where is the eel himself?"

Without even looking, Xiao Zhang pointed to the lotus pond where Huang Shan was and said with a smile, "He's not feeling well. Wait over there. Let me come and take the things his family brought."

Wei Feng saw that Hu Changsheng and others had pounced on Huang Shan, subdued him, and took him into the house next door.

He deliberately said slowly: "My dear brother! Huang Shan's family told me to deliver this thing to Huang Shan himself no matter what. You should ask him to come over."

"OK then!"

Xiao Zhang nodded helplessly, turned and ran towards the lotus pond.

However, when he arrived at the lotus pond, there was no trace of Huang Shan.

He turned around hastily and looked back at the Deti Tailor Shop, but the man in black was nowhere to be seen. He thought to himself, "The director may not want to see his distant relatives, so he has gone back first."

Xiao Zhang didn't think much about it. He just strolled around the street and ate a bowl of hot dry noodles by himself.

In a vacant house nearby, Xiang Chu was interrogating Huang Shan and said in a cold voice:

"Huang Shan! Codenamed Eel, he is a spy planted inside our army by the Japanese commander Murakami Ki-saku. He has provided him with a large amount of intelligence. Speak up! What else do you have to say?"

Huang Shan was tied up and no longer had the arrogance he once had.

Seeing that the young man in front of him was too handsome, he tried to get close to him and said:

"This brother! You are probably Lord Chu, Chu Xi."

Xiang Chu was too lazy to answer him and said coldly: "Huang Shan! Don't ask these boring questions. I am interrogating you."

Huang Shan got angry and shook his head, saying, "I'm not a Japanese spy, I have nothing to say."

Xiang Chu sneered, "Huang Shan! All the telegrams you sent to Murakami Qizuo have been intercepted by us. Changsheng! Why not show it to him."

"Yes!"

Hu Changsheng hurriedly took the order and displayed a stack of telegrams in front of him.

Huang Shan was stunned, knowing that he could no longer conceal it, and said anxiously:

"Sir! I was captured and forced to take a photo with Murakami Kizuo and sign a surrender document before I came to this point. If I tell you, can you please not kill me?"

In order to get him to confess, Xiang Chu said noncommittally: "I can spare your life! But you must be tried by a military court, and the decision will be based on your attitude towards confession."

Huang Shan was delighted. As long as he didn't kill her, he would have a chance to survive. He said hurriedly, "Sir! I have another superior, but I haven't met him in person. I've only contacted him by telegram."

Xiang Chu was overjoyed and asked, "Which unit is this person in? What is his code name?"

Huang Shan shook his head and said, "I don't know. He just called the line. I only have his telegraph call sign."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! Contact him and tell him that you have important information. Ask him to contact you."

Huang Shan was not stupid. He knew that he was sentenced to death if he was tried, and it would be best if he could get out and escape.

He said hurriedly, "Okay! I'll contact him and arrange a meeting with him using the Yangtze River Defense Map Film as bait."

Xiang Chu ordered: "Changsheng! Untie him and let him send the message."

"Yes!"

Hu Changsheng hurriedly accepted the order.

With trembling hands, Huang Shan sent a telegram to his superiors requesting a connection.

Not long after, I received a call back from my upline:

"Eel! 8pm! Meet at the Little Three Gorges Tavern, table next to the window."

Xiang Chu looked at his watch and it was already 7:20, and warned:

"Huang Shan! We will untie you now and let you go to reconnect with your superiors. If you dare to escape, your life will be in danger, understand!"

Huang Shan said hurriedly: "I know! I will never dare to run away."

This man said one thing and said another, and thought to himself: "When the time comes for you to catch the Japanese spy, I will just escape. Otherwise, I will be waiting to die." At the door of the confidentiality director's office at the Jiang Defense Force Command.

Xiao Zhang knocked on the door several times, but still no one responded.

Gao Gu walked over and asked with a smile: "Xiao Zhang! Isn't your Director Huang in the office?"

When Xiao Zhang saw it was him, he said respectfully, "Colonel Gao! Our director will take me out for dinner in the evening..."

He told the whole story in detail, and Gao Gu frowned as he listened.

Needless to say, Gao Gu had just received information from Huang Shan and came here to check out the situation.

Years of experience in lurking told him that Huang Shan had been exposed and necessary measures must be taken to eliminate him.

8pm, Xiao Sanxia Tavern.

Xiang Chu took control of the tavern and set up a tight net around it.

Huang Shan sat down at the table next to the window, waiting for his "superior" to come over for the meeting.

Xiang Chu and Hu Changsheng were in the shop opposite, watching his every move.

Hu Changsheng said worriedly: "Commander! I always feel that Huang Shan will escape."

Xiang Chu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry! If we don't kill him, his superior will kill him. The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind! Who will be the mantis tonight?"

At this time, an old man who collected slop pushed a cart towards the Xiao Sanxia Tavern.

The old man stopped the cart at the door, opened the lid of the slop bucket and shouted:

"Collect the swill!"

Xiang Chu sneered, "Changsheng! This man is a Japanese spy, arrest him quickly."

The old man took out a bundle of grenades from the slop bucket, pulled the fuse and threw it at Huang Shan who was standing by the window.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise.

A big hole was blown in the window of the tavern and Huang Shan was killed on the spot.

At the same time, the old man turned into a young man in an instant and ran towards the alley next to him like a gust of wind.

However, several spies had already been lying in ambush in the alley.

"Bang! Bang!" Several gunshots were heard.

The Japanese spy was shot several times, but each shot hit a vital point.

The Japanese spy knew he couldn't escape, and roared loudly: "Baga! There really is a Chinese agent. You are dreaming of catching me. Long live the leader! Long live the military luck."

"Boom!" There was a loud noise.

The Japanese spy pulled the fuse of the grenade on his waist and committed suicide.

Xiang Chu walked into the alley, checked it out, and shook his head:

"This Japanese spy was so ruthless that he left no trace at all."
