Chapter 153: Sudden Incident

I also think that.

Looking at the excited Cheng Qingyuan, Zheng Qian smiled slightly, got up, walked to the cabinet, opened a hidden compartment, took out a map, and spread it on the table, saying.

Look, outside the Duke Law Restaurant is an open area, which is an excellent sniper position.

Zheng Qian said while pointing at the map: 'Just 50 meters outside the restaurant, there happens to be a residential building, which is the tallest building nearby.'

If we can snipe from the rooftop, we will surely catch them off guard.

The reason we only set up one sniper point is also because Zheng Qian can currently only get hold of one long rifle.

They had just established an intelligence station in Songhu, supplies of all kinds were tight, and even this single long rifle was scraped together by the frontline troops.

Cheng Qingyuan frowned slightly: 'Isn't the risk too great? If the assassination fails, it will surely alert the enemy.'

After that, it will be hard for us to find another chance to assassinate.

So besides this sniper position, we also need to send two team members to look for an opportunity to get close to them.

Cheng Qingyuan shook his head: 'This is too difficult; the head of the Songhu Special Agency is treating guests to a meal, and the Japanese military police will definitely impose martial law around the area, forbidding anyone from approaching.'

Once the Japanese surround the restaurant, our team members will find it hard to get close.

Zheng Qian said: 'So our team members would best be able to infiltrate the restaurant in advance.'

If they know someone is sniping outside, for safety they will definitely enter the restaurant to hide, rather than foolishly stay outside and get shot.

"Exactly!" Cheng Qingyuan's eyes lit up: 'Once they enter the restaurant, our team members hidden inside can then fire at close range.'

They surely won't expect that we have people not only outside but also deployed inside the restaurant!

A pincer attack from both sides will at least manage to kill one of them!

Zheng Qian nodded, refined the plan, then selected several retreat routes and handed them to Cheng Qingyuan.

Remember, each person only needs to complete their own task; there must be no heroics!

"Understood!" Cheng Qingyuan immediately said: 'No delay, I'll go arrange this right away.'

Zheng Qian's expression was stern: 'If the assassination fails, there must be no lingering in battle; whoever it is must withdraw from the scene as quickly as possible!'

"Hmm." Cheng Qingyuan nodded heavily.

To continue struggling fearlessly after a failed assassination is not only irresponsible toward oneself, but also irresponsible toward the lives of one's comrades.

Early the next morning.

Chen Yongren came to the police station as usual.

'Ren Ge.' Seeing Chen Yongren enter, Huang Qifa gave a greeting.

"What are you looking at? Whether you can survive today is uncertain."

"The organization is already considering whether to assassinate you."

"You had better breathe more air these days, because at any moment it could be your last breath."

"I really hope to see what you look like when you go to hell."

……

Because he kept his insight open, Huang Qifa's stream of thoughts poured entirely into Chen Yongren's ears.

Good fellow.

The speed is still quite fast.

Listening to Huang Qifa's thoughts, this guy went to report the situation to his superior right after work yesterday?

I…

They really are efficient.

Chen Yongren didn't pay much attention either.

Before, when Chen Yongren bombed the Japanese warship, he had familiarized himself with the terrain around that restaurant.

At this time, the Red Party's underground operatives didn't have many advanced weapons either.

Let them hold a rifle with a scope?

What a joke.

In order to succeed in the assassination, they can only get as close as possible to the target.

Fifty meters from the restaurant, there happen to be several buildings of decent height; it just depends on which one they choose in the end.

This just happens to be within the range of danger perception.

If this still allows the assassination to succeed, then those who die are truly not wronged at all.

Approaching the end of work.

A Japanese second lieutenant in military uniform quickly walked into the police station.

Seeing this Japanese second lieutenant, Huang Qifa instantly became energized and couldn't help but sit up straight.

The other police officers, seeing Japanese people walk in, had faces showing some fear and terror.

'Which of you is Chen Yongren?' the lieutenant asked, looking around, speaking in awkward Chinese.

'It's me.' Chen Yongren stood up.

'Please come with me to the car.' The Japanese lieutenant looked at Chen Yongren without further words.

'Ren Ge, it's surely the sir preparing to treat you to a meal.'

'Hurry up, Ren Ge!'

'Remember to tell us if there's any good news.'

……

Seeing this scene, the police officers all started to jeer.

Chen Yongren nodded calmly, got into the car with the Japanese lieutenant, and sped all the way to the Duke Law Restaurant.

As Chen Yongren expected, the area around the restaurant was already under martial law.

Armed Japanese soldiers with live ammunition stood near the restaurant.

"You traitorous dogs, as soon as you enter the restaurant, you're as good as dead."

"I hope our comrades outside can take out one of them with a single shot."

"When you're all together, I'll call out your names one by one from a distance."

……

Hearing these two inner voices, Chen Yongren felt a bit surprised.

They actually set up an ambush inside the restaurant?

There are people both inside and outside.

Chen Yongren wondered, after rescuing them later, how to let them slip away so the two Red Party members hiding in the restaurant could escape.

Suddenly, he saw in the rearview mirror a car slowly approaching from that direction.

"Director Fujiwara's car has arrived," said the Japanese second lieutenant.

The car pulled up right to the restaurant entrance.

Chen Yongren immediately opened the car door, quickly walked to Fujiwara's car, looked at the two people in the back seat, stood at attention and saluted, saying: "Major His Excellency, Director Takayuki!"

"Chen Sang, you've been waiting long." Fujiwara Kinta smiled.

Takayuki Shuji nodded in agreement.

"I've only just arrived myself," Chen Yongren said, slightly bowing, his left hand opening the car door and his right hand resting on the roof to shield.

Fujiwara Kinta and Takayuki Shuji then got out of the car one after another.

Chen Yongren led the way ahead, his eyes vigilant as he looked around.

"Chen Sang, relax; we already conducted a thorough carpet search earlier—inside the restaurant, aside from the waitstaff, it's just the guards we posted."

Seeing Chen Yongren's nervous appearance, Fujiwara Kinta smiled and reassured him.

"I can guarantee that this place is completely safe; no danger will arise."

The more Fujiwara Kinta looked at Chen Yongren, the more satisfied he became.

Chen Sang truly is a loyal and steadfast fellow; wanting to promote him was indeed the right choice.

However, just as they were about to enter the restaurant,

Chen Yongren suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of fear, his hair standing on end.

They're here!

"Major His Excellency, watch out!"

Chen Yongren lunged and shoved Fujiwara Kinta to the ground.

"Bang!"

The next moment.

A piercing gunshot suddenly rang out; a bullet grazed Chen Yongren's ear, striking the ground and leaving a small crater.

Seeing this, Fujiwara Kinta's eyes widened in shock.

"Quickly protect Major His Excellency and get him into the restaurant!" Takayuki Shuji reacted instantly, drew his pistol, and swiftly shielded Fujiwara Kinta.

The surrounding Japanese soldiers also raised their guns, aiming around to provide cover.

The Japanese soldiers inside the restaurant immediately opened the restaurant door, gesturing for them to hurry inside.
