Chapter 19: The Lurkers (1)

Lurk, this is a very simple word, literally, the word lurking means to hide and ambush, but for those intelligence personnel living in enemy-occupied areas, the word lurking represents many meanings. Especially for Yao Ansheng, latent is to live like an ordinary person without attracting the attention of those who care. Yao Ansheng has been in Shanghai for more than half a year, and no one has come to contact him, and Yao Ansheng is really like an ordinary person, just entangled with vegetables, rice, oil, salt and short trivial matters in his parents every day.

Today is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and it is the day when Yao Ansheng goes to check the secret mailbox according to the usual practice, and there are many ways for the military commander to contact intelligence personnel, and the use of the secret mailbox is only one of them, and this is the only means for Yao Ansheng to contact his superiors. As usual, Yao Ansheng walked through the alley casually, and at the last moment when he walked out of the alley, he looked back seemingly unintentionally, and when he turned around, his eyes swept over the mailbox at the entrance of the alley.

There was still no movement, Yao Ansheng was a little disappointed in his heart, the traces he left last time on the mailbox are still there, which means that the mailbox has not been touched. Yao Ansheng, who walked out of the alley, looked the same as usual, but he was very disappointed in his heart, could it be that his superiors had forgotten him? I'm still going to continue to lurk here.

Following the usual route, Yao Ansheng walked slowly along the side of the street, and according to the habit of the past, he walked another street corner, which was the small restaurant where he often went to eat. Yao Ansheng, who was immersed in disappointment, unconsciously relaxed his vigilance, and did not notice at all that behind him, there were already a few sturdy men faintly following. Shanghai is a metropolis known as the Pearl of the Orient and a paradise for adventurers, but it is also a paradise and battlefield for many intelligence agents and black market brokers, especially with too many lurkers like Yao Ansheng.

Yao Ansheng didn't know that he was being targeted, and it wasn't until he walked into the small restaurant he frequented and found that the owner and men of the restaurant had all been replaced, that he realized that something was wrong. Turning around and glancing at the sturdy men who had appeared at the door of the restaurant, Yao Ansheng, who was beating fast and breathing rapidly, calmed down and found a table casually, Yao Ansheng sat down, but he was immediately controlled by someone from behind him.

Liu Chuang was a little disappointed at the moment, this guy in front of him had been stared at by them for a few days, but he didn't find anyone contacting the goods, and an opportunity to ask for merit and reward from above just slipped away. "Boy, you should know who we are, if I were you, I would obediently choose to cooperate with us, otherwise you can only ask for trouble." Liu Chuang stretched out his hand and patted Yao Ansheng's cheek, his eyes full of impatience.

Yao Ansheng naturally didn't say a word, even if he was punched in the back and chest a few times one after another, Yao Ansheng still didn't say a word. Seeing that there was already blood flowing out of the corner of Yao Ansheng's mouth, Liu Chuang knew that this kid was a hard thing, and in desperation, Liu Chuang had to decide to bring this kid back to No. 76 first. "Brother, why do you say you are doing this, if you don't look down on our means, then we can only take you back and hand you over to the Japanese. Trust the Japanese by means that you will definitely like and take away. Liu Chuang smiled at Yao Ansheng, who was speechless, and then beckoned his plainclothes agents to drag Yao Ansheng out of the restaurant.

Yao Ansheng, who was dragged out of the small restaurant, regretted a little at the moment, he didn't regret accepting the order of his superiors to become an incubator, he just regretted that he had leaked the bottom before the lurker was activated, and when he went out today, he forgot to put a poison pill on his collar. Liu Chuang's little spy quickly drove two cars from a distance, and immediately someone walked over quickly and pulled the car door, and the rest of the people walked towards the car with Yao Ansheng in tow.

It is not uncommon for spies to arrest people in the concession, and at first there were patrols in the concession to stop them, but as the Japanese offensive in China became more and more fierce, the foreigners in Shanghai also became much more pleasant to the Japanese, including the high-level officials of the Ministry of Industry in the concession. Seeing someone being dragged out of the small restaurant, the pedestrians on the side of the street just watched from a distance, but no one dared to say anything, because Liu Chuang, who was carrying a pistol, looked like a plainclothes spy.

Just when Yao Ansheng was pushed into the car by his head, Liu Chuang, who was standing next to the first car, subconsciously turned his head and glanced at his left side for some reason. If the operatives hesitate or are in a trance during the operation, it will often bring unpredictable danger and trouble, but the situation Liu Chuang is facing at the moment is not a dangerous occasion, and he is accompanied by six or seven subordinates, even if there is an accident, it is not a big deal.

Perhaps because of this self-righteous principle of doing things, Liu Chuang has not been reused in No. 76, and he himself doesn't seem to realize it. Liu Chuang's reputation in No. 76 is not obvious, but he is also the leader of an action team, and suddenly turned his head to look at his left, and at the moment when Liu Chuang and a line of sight met and collided, Liu Chuang secretly screamed in his heart. At the last moment, Liu Chuang sensed that something was wrong, but unfortunately everything was already a little late, and before he could shout out before his complexion changed greatly, a bullet silently and accurately hit his forehead.

"Poof..."In front of everyone's eyes, Liu Chuang's head suddenly burst out of a cloud of blood mist, bullets shot into his forehead, and after deflecting and rolling in the skull, with a stream of red-white blood arrows and half a skull, it fell on the roof of the car with a bang. The plainclothes agents standing beside Liu Chuang were already dumbfounded, and without hearing the slightest gunshot, a big living person was blown off his head by a bullet, all of which seemed too mysterious.

Before Liu Chuang's body slid down the car to the ground, the two plainclothes agents standing behind him also fell backwards one after another, and like Liu Chuang, their heads were each chiseled out of a bullet hole. "Killed, killed..."Among the pedestrians who were dumbfounded like the plainclothes spies, someone finally reflected, accompanied by chaotic shouts, the passers-by who had stopped to see the excitement immediately scattered, and even some people just turned around and hid in the nearest street store.

The three corpses were lying on the ground clearly, and the remaining plainclothes agents didn't care about Liu Chuang and the others, who had been shot and fell, but just hurriedly got into the car and tried to leave here immediately. "Dang" The first sedan that had been on fire only jumped forward one meter and stopped, and a round bullet hole had appeared on the front windshield of the car, and the driver behind the windshield was directly torn open by the bullet, and the thick plasma splattered from the intercarotid artery in the neck instantly dyed the windshield a strange red.

The plainclothes agent sitting in the back seat only had time to reach out and push the car door when the next bullet penetrated the windshield and hit the left side of the body in the ribs. Then, enduring the severe pain, he leaned his back against the sedan and hid himself in the rear wheel of the sedan. The first sedan was stopped, followed by the second sedan, not only the driver, but even the plainclothes agent sitting in the passenger seat was shot dead.

Yao Ansheng, who was pressed in the back seat of the second car, was ecstatic at the moment, although he didn't know if it was the person who shot the military commander, but he knew that that person must not be his enemy. As in the previous situation, people were shot in a row, but the remaining plainclothes agents who were still alive did not hear the gunshots at all, and sat together with Yao Ansheng, and the two plainclothes agents who were pressing Yao Ansheng hard were especially afraid, afraid that they would become the next unlucky person to be shot and killed. The last two spies who were still alive were not stupid, they naturally knew why such a situation suddenly appeared, if nothing else, this military commander lurker who was caught by them was the bane.

The two plainclothes spies who were ordered to take care of Yao Ansheng couldn't help but glance at each other, and as soon as one of them was talking, the two pushed and shoved Yao Ansheng out of the back seat of the car. The pistol was pressed to Yao Ansheng's head, and the two plainclothes agents, who were obviously flustered, planned to use Yao Ansheng as a meat shield to leave the place. It's a pity that they underestimated the ruthlessness of the other party, the two of them escorted Yao Ansheng back from one left and one right, but the distance was only two or three meters, and the one standing on Yao Ansheng's left was cut off by the bullet.

"Let him go, I'll let you leave alive, or you'll die here too." The plainclothes spy who was still alive in the end lost his courage in an instant, and just curled up as much as he could, hiding behind Yao Ansheng. Just as he was shivering and looking around, a voice full of coldness appeared, and the plainclothes agent hiding behind Yao Ansheng followed the sound, and a person with a black cloth covering his face appeared on the side of the street. "I said, let him go, I'll let you leave alive." The masked man's right hand was raised, and a strangely shaped pistol was pointed straight at the last plainclothes agent.

The masked man was less than 20 meters away from the car, and at such a distance, the plainclothes agent hiding behind Yao Ansheng was not sure that he could shoot the other party, but looking at the situation just now, the other party could shoot himself at any time. The plainclothes spy who couldn't help churning in his heart fought for a while, and finally slowly let go of the left hand that was holding Yao Ansheng, and then held the gun in his right hand at the masked man, and the free left hand pushed Yao Ansheng violently, but he took the opportunity to turn around and run backwards.

"Get down..."Yao Ansheng, who flashed forward, heard this loud shout, and subconsciously lay on the ground with his arms outstretched, only to feel two strong winds passing over his head, and then the god of fire looked at it, only to see that the plainclothes spy who had just pushed away himself had fallen to the back of the car with open arms at this moment. If you don't leave, you're still waiting for me to invite you to dinner, your military commanders are in trouble. The masked man pulled the car door and sat in the car, and Yao Ansheng, who looked inquiring, got into the back seat of the car in a panic.
