Fast Wear: The Spare Tire Runs Fast

Yiang swaggered out of the Japanese headquarters and headed towards Xiao Shanling. Of course, it would take an unknown amount of time to walk there, so Yiang secretly cheated again and applied a magical talisman to himself, which made him go a little faster.

To avoid the possibility of someone else preventing him from seeing Xiao Shanling or simply refusing him entry, Yiang appeared directly at the door of Xiao Shanling's office and removed the invisibility talisman when he saw that no one was around. After all, Yiang didn't want to be caught as a monster.

After knocking on the door a few times, a middle-aged man's voice came from inside, "Come in."

When Yiang opened the door and walked in, Xiao Shanling initially thought it was a staff member. After a while, he looked up and realized it was someone he didn't recognize. He asked, "Who are you? How did you get in? What's going on?"

Seeing Xiao Shanling's defensive look, Yiang knew that he was the one being targeted for assassination.

Yiang said hurriedly, "Don't get me wrong, Mayor Xiao, my name is Du Fei, and I'm a reporter. I heard that a hero did something at the Japanese headquarters and seemed to have brought out some documents. I was wondering if they've been sent to you. If so, could I take some photos and keep them? After the war, these will be evidence of the Japanese's crimes."

"I will never disclose the contents of the document. Please rest assured. As a Chinese, I deeply detest the actions of the Japanese pirates and express my profound condemnation. However, I am only a journalist, and my pen is my weapon. Through these things, I can let the world, and even future generations, know about the tragic experience our country has endured."

Xiao Shanling stared at Yi Ang with an inquiring look. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Mr. Du, I'm very touched by your patriotism. But I don't have what you're talking about. If I did, I'd certainly be obliged to help. China is no longer a country, and we're not even close to home. I hope there will be more heroes like you who will contribute to our country, whether they wield guns or pens. They're all working for the victory of China."

"Yes, there will be a day of victory. This day will not be too far away, and victory will eventually belong to us." When Yi Ang heard Xiao Shanling say this, he knew that his goal had been achieved, so he continued, "Since that's not the case, I'll take my leave, Mayor Xiao."

"Alas, I thought I could get first-hand information, but it seems it was all in vain. However, since they said it so clearly, I guess the Japanese pirates are really making some big moves. I have to go and find out."

Yiang walked out while deliberately muttering to himself.

I hope Xiaoshan Ling will pay more attention to these documents. After all, one of them contains the time and plan for capturing Nanshi.

After seeing Yiang really leave, Xiao Shanling quickly went to the door to take a look, and called the secretary, asking if he had seen a slender man leave. The secretary looked at Xiao Shanling puzzledly and said, "No, Mayor, I was in the office just now and didn't pay attention to the outside. Is there anyone suspicious?"

"Oh, no, I was dazzled. I saw a figure in a trance. It should be someone in here." Xiao Shanling said casually.

Xiao Shanling returned to his office, took out the documents, and looked over them again and again, lost in thought. After a long while, he finally picked up the phone, dialed a number, and said, "Hello, has the tea arrived yet? Oh, it should be here this afternoon. I'll come pick it up then."

Xiao Shanling stayed restless until the afternoon, then went out on his own. He came to a tea shop and said to the counter person, "Hello, I called this morning and came to pick up some tea."

"Your quota of tea is still in the house and hasn't been sorted out yet. Why don't you come in with me and I can get it for you?"

"no problem."

As soon as he entered the room, he saw a man wearing a hat sitting inside. Xiao Shanling walked over quickly and said, "You're here. I have something here. I don't know if it's true or not, but I think it should be real. You can make some preparations for it."

The man who led Xiao Shanling in turned and left before Xiao Shanling could speak. The man wearing a hat took off his hat, revealing a middle-aged man with regular features and a square face.

"What document? Is it so important that you're willing to use my covert contact?"

Xiao Shanling handed the man a file bag. The man opened it and flipped through the documents one by one. His expression changed from calm, to angry, to calm. But you could still see a raging fire in his eyes, as if it wanted to burn through the papers. He blurted out murderously, "These beasts, I'm afraid these documents are real."

Xiao Shanling uttered a puzzled "Huh..." and asked, "Why are you so sure?"

The man said, "First, since you brought them to me, it proves that you don't doubt the authenticity of these documents. Second, our undercover agents on the Japanese side have previously reported that there's a major move at headquarters. We can't find out what it is, but it's definitely targeting Nanshi."

Xiao Shanling gave a wry smile and said, "Indeed, I had my suspicions this morning. But no one knew about this document; it just showed up in my office. Then, around noon, a man claiming to be a reporter came to my office. He said he'd heard I had documents from the Japanese and wanted to take photos for record keeping. So, I suspected he was the one who put this document in my office, and that he was the one who started the chaos at the Japanese headquarters. He probably went to my office because he was afraid I wouldn't take it seriously and wouldn't come up with a solution."

"Oh? Is that true? Then it's very likely him. An undercover agent reported this morning that there's a big commotion at headquarters. Their top commander, Matsui Iwane, was seriously injured for some unknown reason. He was rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night, and his life is still unknown."

"Then we must act immediately. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Nanshi should be relocated and deployed. I have an idea. We are all Chinese, and we are all fighting against the Japanese. Tell the Red Army about this, and we can all prepare together. When it comes to the survival of the country, quarrels among our own families are nothing."

"No problem, that's exactly what I was thinking. I'll send someone to make the contact. Time is running out in a few days. While the Japs are in chaos, we should act quickly and move the women, children, and the elderly to hide first. The young and strong will be in the rear for supplies, and we soldiers will be fighting in the front. Now is a special period, so the military is not the military. The people are the people. The military and civilians are all Chinese, and we all have to fight. After all, the Japs have weapons and cash, so we can only use human wave tactics."

"Alright, I'll hold a war meeting when I get back and come up with a better plan. Any news from your side, please pass it on immediately. We have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Nanshi, and we can't let our guard down. Otherwise, if we lose the battle and can't hold the city, there will be corpses everywhere. Those beasts won't know how to treat the people."
