A strange man's voice came from the phone: "I saw you. Now I have released your wife and children. You will see them soon. After you see them, if you dare not tell me the address where the counterfeit money is printed, I will shoot them to death. Do you understand?"

"Understood, I'll tell you the address when I see them!"

"very good!"

A minute later, when Mrs. Kumamoto and Shunji, mother and son, appeared dozens of meters away, Ichiro Kumamoto's eyes instantly turned red and he was so excited that he almost cried.

At this time, a strange man's voice came from the phone: "Did you see them?"

"Look, I see it!" said Ichiro Kumamoto.

"Now it's your turn to tell us the address where the counterfeit money is printed!" the strange man reminded.

Ichiro Kumamoto didn't hesitate and said immediately, "At the Commercial Printing House, although I didn't hear Akamatsu say where to send the template to print counterfeit banknotes, there are only two places in Shanghai that can print banknotes. One is Jason Printing House in the French Concession, and the other is the Commercial Printing House!"

"Since Akamatsu wanted to print banknotes, it's obvious that he couldn't go to the French Concession because he couldn't control it there. It could only be at the Commercial Printing Factory, and the printing of Central Reserve Bank notes was done at the Commercial Printing Factory!"

"...Very good, congratulations on your family reunion, goodbye!" The strange man hung up the phone after saying that.

"I hope we never see each other again!" Kumamoto Ichiro said silently in his heart, put down the phone, opened the door and rushed to his wife and children: "Sachiko, Shunji"

The next morning, Lao Cui came to the Samsung stage at the hotel wearing a neat suit, shiny leather shoes, and a top hat.

I happened to see a little girl selling roses on the street with a basket, so I bought a bunch.

Before nine o'clock, the audience with tickets walked into the theater and found their seats and sat down.

Lao Cui looked up and saw that it was still early for the show to start, so he bought a bag of melon seeds from the snack vendor in the theater. After he found his seat, he sat down and placed the rose on the seat next to him. This was the secret signal for the meeting and he couldn't forget it.

The ticket for the seat next to me was delivered to a good friend last night, and he will enter the theater with the ticket.

At 8:40, the theater was almost full, with only a few seats left empty. It was not because the tickets for these seats had not been sold, but because the people holding the tickets had not arrived yet.

Time passed slowly and the theater soon opened. All the actors came on stage one by one. Everyone's performance aroused cheers from the audience. When the performance reached a wonderful part, some big bosses even shouted out how much money they would give as a reward, which caused other audiences to exclaim in surprise.

Two-thirds of the play was already over, and the seat next to Lao Cui was still empty. He was getting restless and very anxious.

Just as he was feeling restless and tormented, a woman's voice appeared beside him: "Sorry, I'm late!"

Lao Cui turned around and saw that it was the woman he had met that night. He quickly stood up, picked up the rose on the empty seat, handed it to her and said, "It's okay, I'll give it to you!"

"Thank you!"

"Come, sit down and watch the show, this is the exciting part!" Lao Cui said quickly.

"it is good!"

A few minutes later, the woman slowly leaned on Lao Cui's shoulder, and Lao Cui put his arm around her.

"They successfully copied the legal tender template yesterday afternoon! The person primarily responsible for printing counterfeit money in an attempt to undermine the legal tender credit system and disrupt the financial market is Akamatsu from the consulate. He brought people here yesterday afternoon to take away the counterfeit template!" the woman whispered.

Old Cui was shocked and asked, "How successful was this template?"

"The printed banknotes are almost identical to the legal tender. At least everyone involved in the counterfeiting has used a magnifying glass to observe and compare them for a long time, and they can't find any obvious flaws, not to mention other things like paper and ink!" said the woman.

When Lao Cui heard this news, he became even more anxious. "So the template is in Chisong's hands now?"

"It was in his hands yesterday, but I don't know what it is today. However, there are only two printing houses in Shanghai capable of printing banknotes on a large scale. One is in the French Concession, which is obviously not an option for Akamatsu. The other is the Commercial Press. If they want to print banknotes in large quantities, they can only do so there!"

"Very good, I received the message. Notify your people to evacuate in time. We must take action to stop them!" Lao Cui whispered.

"understand!"

"Thank you for providing the information this time. Otherwise, we would not have known that they had such a vicious conspiracy. If we let them succeed, we will suffer even heavier losses!" Lao Cui thanked the woman.

"You're welcome, we're on the same side!"

Lao Cui added: "If you have any questions or requests that we can provide, please contact us!"

"I will!"

After the story was told, the two did not choose to leave. Instead, they insisted on watching the show until the end and gave applause before leaving the theater with the audience. Then they parted without saying goodbye.

The Jiangzhou Blue Shirts Society headquarters had received the secret telegram from Worker Ant last night. Only an hour later, Worker Ant received a reply. The headquarters ordered him to conduct a secret reconnaissance of the Commercial Printing Factory and report back after figuring out the situation inside and around the printing factory.

After Lao Cui reported the situation to the base via telegram, he soon received new instructions. His superiors asked them to find out the situation of the Commercial Printing Factory before taking any action.

The Commercial Printing Factory was heavily guarded inside and outside, with a squad of 61 Japanese soldiers stationed there. Despite the tight security, the Blue Shirts Society and the underground party demonstrated their powerful infiltration capabilities and were able to figure out the situation inside.

Lucky Tea House.

At night, a light was on in a room in the backyard.

There were a total of 7 people in the room. Except Lao Cui, the others were all heads of various districts.

Lao Cui said to the crowd, "Now that everyone is here, I will convene a meeting. Regarding the Japanese plot to print large quantities of counterfeit banknotes to undermine the credit of the French currency and disrupt our economy, our superiors have instructed us to resolutely thwart this and absolutely not allow their conspiracy to succeed!"

"They have now copied the template of the legal tender, and the counterfeit notes they print are almost indistinguishable from the real thing. They print the counterfeit notes at the Commercial Printing Factory. Over the past few days, we have sent people to conduct infiltration and reconnaissance and have figured out the internal situation of the Commercial Printing Factory."

"This printing factory has a total of 87 workers and other staff, and a 61-man Japanese squad is stationed there. With such a strong defense, it is almost impossible for us to attack them head-on and destroy them. That would be tantamount to suicide!"

"So we can only outsmart them. Here's a plan of the Commercial Printing Factory's structure and layout, as well as the deployment of the Japanese sentries and mobile patrols. Now let's discuss how to thwart their conspiracy!"
