Bright Sword: Leading the Special Operations Squadron to Fight the Japs

Shopkeeper Liu hung a sign on the door saying "Closed for Business Today" and then quietly left through the back door. He and Tang Youyou were going to separately notify their comrades at the Beiping Intelligence Station and have them evacuate quickly.

Shopkeeper Liu and Tang Youyou kept praying, hoping to catch up!

The clock hand must have pointed to two o'clock in the afternoon. Guan Gu Shenqi took a breath of cool air to make his swollen gums feel better.

"Section Chief Guan Gu, is your tooth okay?"

"My teeth are fine, but my face hurts so much now! Whatever, let's gather the team and go!"

"Ha Yi! Section Chief Guan Gu has devoted all his energy to the cause of the empire. He is truly a role model for our generation! I admire you!"

Guan Gu Shenqi waved his hand, signaling them to set off immediately.

"When you encounter danger later, remember to hide behind the detective team. Only by protecting yourself can you truly be loyal to the empire!"

When Guan Gu Shenqi's subordinates heard Guan Gu Shenqi's "concern", they were moved to tears.

Other officers would have wanted their soldiers to die in battle, but only their officers would put themselves in their shoes and consider their own situation, which made them, who had basically received higher education, seem to feel a little different kind of care.

Guan Gu Shenqi took ten of his subordinates from the Second Confidential Section and got into three jeeps, then drove towards Erdao Hutong.

When they were more than a hundred meters away from the noodle shop, Guan Gu Shenqi and others got out of the car and then, according to the previous deployment, encircled the noodle shop in three directions.

Guan Gu Shenqi arrived at a teahouse opposite the noodle shop, went straight up to the second floor, walked into the "Bamboo" private room, and saw the detective team captain Jin Dachuan.

Jin Dachuan was a Korean. Because he wholeheartedly served the Japanese as a running dog, he was eventually appointed as the captain of the detective team by the General Staff of the North China Front Army.

"Section Chief Guan Gu, you're here? I've been watching here, everything is normal!"

Guan Gu Shenqi felt a little nauseous when he saw Jin Dachuan, who had come all the way to China to be a running dog.

"Well, Captain Jin treats the Empire as his own motherland and is so loyal to it. It's admirable! How about it, is there anyone coming in and out of the noodle shop?"

"Yes, it's the same as before, no different!"

Guan Gu Shenqi's heart skipped a beat and he looked across the street with a telescope. Sure enough, the noodle shop was still operating as usual, and there seemed to be quite a lot of people coming in.

Did his cleverness fail? Did Shopkeeper Liu and Tang Youyou not receive his message?

Now he could only pray that this so-called "nest" was not the intelligence station of the Independent Column!

"Well, how are your preparations going? Do you need to prepare more?"

Jin Dachuan quickly expressed his opinion and patted his chest.

"Section Chief Guan Gu, don't worry, our detective team is always ready to show up for the Empire and the Imperial Army!"

The reason why Guan Gu Shenqi asked this was that he wanted to delay time and make a bigger noise, and then take the initiative to alert the enemy and make the "enemy agents" in the noodle shop run away quickly.

However, Jin Dachuan seemed to understand this as a test for him and rushed to show his loyalty.

"Captain Jin, I'm asking you again, are you ready? Answer truthfully!"

Jin Dachuan felt a little scared when he saw Guan Gu Shenqi's unfriendly expression. He was full of confidence, but when asked so suddenly, he really couldn't answer.

"Section Chief Guan Gu, am I ready or not?"

"Baga, I'm asking you, not you asking me!"

Jin Dachuan was frightened by Guan Gu Shenqi's sudden shout and almost fell to the side.

"Report... Report to Section Chief Guan Gu, the detective team is ready and can go in and arrest people at any time!"

Guan Gu Shenqi lost his temper. Since he said so, there was no reason to stop him. He could only order all personnel to get ready and break in after five minutes.

Just when Guan Gu Shenqi was about to take action, a graceful figure walked into the noodle shop, surrounded by a large crowd of people. She was very arrogant and it was obvious that she was an important person or the family of an important person.

"What's going on? Didn't I tell you to block the perimeter? Why did you let these big shots in? Who are they? Investigate immediately!"

Jin Dachuan was also shocked. If he let the lover or concubine of some high-ranking official in there and happened to get hit twice, he would be in big trouble.

"Ha Yi, I will investigate immediately!"

Jin Dachuan dragged his round body, trembling as he ran towards the direction where the big shot was coming from.

Guan Gu Shenqi stood on the second floor and looked at Jin Dachuan's round body, as if he was a giant meatball rolling on the street.

He had no intention of looking at Jin Dachuan, but instead pointed the telescope at the noodle shop.

This noodle shop is a famous Yangchun noodle shop in Peking. The Yangchun noodles here are a specialty. Two poached eggs, a handful of green vegetables, and a spoonful of shrimp heads are added to make shrimp oil. It tastes so delicious.

Therefore, celebrities and dignitaries who have had enough of delicacies from land and sea will come to this Yangchun noodle restaurant to try something new and change their taste.

The detective team should have blocked the intersection before taking action, and they should have stopped all the wealthy and powerful people passing by to prevent them from getting in the way. But how come they missed this one?

Guan Gu Shenqi guessed that this woman must have a very powerful background, so that the detectives could not stop her!

His hands, which were holding the telescope, were sweaty and trembling slightly.

It was originally a one-sided massacre, but now, perhaps because of the sudden intrusion of this woman, there is a hint of suspense.

Guan Gu Shenqi watched the round ball of flesh roll back flexibly. Not long after, he heard a creaking sound from the wooden stairs, as if it was protesting against being overweight.

Jin Dachuan was breathing heavily, his face flushed, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at Guan Gu Shenqi.

"Baga, who is that woman? And what is going on?!"

"Section Chief Guan Gu, I deserve to die. The woman who just came in is Yang Xue, the daughter of Yang Wanli, the president of the Peking Federation of Industry and Commerce."

Yang Wanli was a remarkable figure. He was one of the first group of students sent abroad to study, and he studied economics in the UK.

After returning to China, he began to work for the Qing government. However, the decadent Qing government made him see no hope. In a fit of anger, he started to run businesses again, opening a flour mill, a machinery factory, etc. in Peiping.

Later, the Japanese launched a full-scale war. Yang Wanli had a large family and a large business, so he had no way to move his assets away, so he simply stayed in Peiping.

Finally, he was forced to "live in peace" with the Japanese and served as the chairman of the Peking Federation of Industry and Commerce. He usually represented the Peking industrial and commercial circles to communicate with the Japanese, and the Japanese often "raised funds" from the Peking industrial and commercial circles through Yang Wanli.

Because Yang Wanli was a top figure in the industrial and commercial circles of Peiping, with seniority and large industries, he had a lot of say, and the Japanese relied on him a lot.

The puppet Peking government invited Yang Wanli to serve as the secretary-general of the Peking government many times, but he refused each invitation.

Therefore, Guan Gu Shenqi's evaluation of him is that he is a businessman who can judge the situation.
