Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter Ninety-Two: The Teahouse Horror (Part 2)

Contrary to Ye Shaohong's expectations, the person who entered first was not Tanaka Tsujin.

It was the middle-aged man he had met just a few days ago.

He changed his makeup today.

He no longer wore that dark black long gown, nor did he wear a top hat. Instead, he wore a well-fitting suit, and a smile was always on his lips.

Even more surprisingly, the wart on his left cheek near his nose was gone.

It can be said that it has completely changed its appearance.

How did Ye Shaohong recognize him?

It's very simple. When the two of them first met, Ye Shaohong keenly noticed a detail.

When this person walks, their shoulders are not level.

His right shoulder would appear uneven as he took a step, with one shoulder higher than the other.

Ye Shaohong guessed that his leg might have been injured.

It was precisely because of this small detail that Ye Shaohong was able to recognize him even though he had changed his appearance.

"interesting!"

By this point, Ye Shaohong was basically certain that this person was the Japanese spy who was preparing to meet with Tanaka Tsujin.

Although he already had this suspicion in his mind, Ye Shaohong was not in a hurry to take immediate action.

As the saying goes, to catch a thief red-handed, you need to catch him in the act. Without solid evidence, without being caught red-handed, if the person has some status or background, they can deny everything to the death. To be on the safe side, Ye Shaohong decided to hold back for the time being.

Then he realized something was wrong.

Shortly after the middle-aged man entered Huiquan Teahouse, another person who had attracted Ye Shaohong's special attention walked in.

This time, it was a woman who came in.

At the age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight, she wore a bright red cheongsam embroidered with peony patterns and held a women's handbag in her hand, exuding a graceful and charming aura.

She stepped into the room, glanced around, and then naturally walked to a spot not far from the middle-aged man.

They waited quietly.

"An accident, a coincidence?"

Looking at the two people, a man and a woman, who were not far apart yet clearly separated, Ye Shaohong's face showed a rare solemnity.

He wanted to go out and check the situation, but he also knew very well that he had already revealed himself to that middle-aged man.

If he dares to show himself, it will surely alert the middle-aged man.

This is the outcome Ye Shaohong did not want to see.

In the end, Ye Shaohong held back.

He slowly sat down, picked up the teacup from the table, and took a small sip.

"Humph."

"I don't care if it's an accident or a coincidence. If I find anything wrong, neither of you will be leaving today."

After he finished speaking, Ye Shaohong took out his pocket watch again and checked the time.

They estimated that Zheng Yaoxian and Tanaka Tsujin should be arriving soon.

With anticipation growing, Ye Shaohong glanced at the door more frequently, but just then, an unexpected event occurred. "Damn it!"

"What's going on?"

What did Ye Shaohong see?

He didn't see Zheng Yaoxian and Tanaka Tsujin at the shop entrance, but instead saw a familiar face.

A Nationalist government officer.

He was also a suspected Japanese spy who was under Ye Shaohong's special attention.

When the middle-aged man and the charming young woman appeared one after another, Ye Shaohong's calm and composed mind had already begun to change slightly, as the identities of the two suspects were still unclear.

The last suspect has arrived.

Is there such a coincidence in the world?

Maybe.

But with so many coincidences happening in front of Ye Shaohong, he absolutely refused to believe it.

Three? All three of them came?

"Is one of them a Japanese spy who's about to make contact, or... are all three of them?"

Unable to make an accurate judgment, Ye Shaohong's mind was in turmoil. Looking at the three people sitting in the lobby on the first floor, a cold glint flashed in Ye Shaohong's eyes.

"calm!"

"Ye Shaohong, you need to calm down."

"You are the main person in charge of this operation, and your planning and arrangements have been perfected. Even if some unexpected things happen, you have enough ways to deal with them."

Taking a long breath, Ye Shaohong suddenly raised his head and shouted towards the door.

"Refill the tea!"

This was a pre-arranged code between Ye Shaohong and that Mr. Bai. If a special situation arose and Ye Shaohong was unable to personally appear, he would use this excuse to call out and establish contact. Ye Shaohong sighed inwardly.

Fortunately, he was well-prepared and had considered all possible scenarios. If he hadn't been prepared, he might have been thrown off balance by this sudden turn of events.

"coming!"

Upon hearing Ye Shaohong's call, the young man surnamed Bai, who had been brought out of Nancheng Prison, shuddered imperceptibly. He then grabbed a wicker kettle and hurriedly ran upstairs to the second floor.

They entered the private room where Ye Shaohong was.

"Sir, your tea has gone cold. Let me brew you a fresh cup."

Bai Xiangong entered Ye Shaohong's room, saw Ye Shaohong's gesture to silence him, quickly nodded, and moved closer.

"Give me your hand!"

Before Bai Xiangong even entered the room, Ye Shaohong had already taken out his pen from his shirt pocket. Seeing him enter the room, he showed no politeness whatsoever and grabbed Bai Xiangong's free arm.

Brush brush.

His wrist moved swiftly, and soon he had written two lines of text on the arm of the white-clad gentleman who was pretending to be a servant.

First line: The situation has changed.

Second line: Focus on men in suits, young married women, and soldiers.

After writing these words, Ye Shaohong finally spoke and gave the order.

"When you go down later, find an opportunity to show Li Yunlong and Zhuang Yifan what I have written."

"Remember, don't let the people around you notice."

Ye Shaohong's solemn demeanor secretly alarmed Bai Xiangong, who dared not question him and could only nod slightly.

Then he took the kettle and went downstairs. Just then, another person walked in at the entrance of the teahouse.

This time, it was finally Tanaka Tsujin who came in.

No one was following him. He stepped into the teahouse, first scanning his surroundings before his gaze settled on the middle-aged man in the suit.

After a brief observation, Tanaka Tsujin did not rush over immediately.

Instead, he went to stand next to the middle-aged man in the suit.

As Tanaka Tsujin sat down, Ye Shaohong discovered something extremely interesting.

Those were a man in a suit, a charming young woman, and a government officer; the three of them were seated in a triangular formation.

Later, Tanaka Tsujin entered the teahouse, which happened to be right at the center of this triangle.

Was it pre-planned? And among these three, who will step forward to meet with Tanaka Tsujin?
