The continuous explosions echoed in all directions, instantly shattering the surrounding tranquility.

After the explosions stopped, Bai Luo, who was hiding behind the wall, did not go to finish off the surviving Japanese soldiers. Instead, he ran towards the location of the Japanese Special Higher Police intelligence department.

The agents who had just returned to their base also saw the flames shooting into the sky in the distance.

Inside the Special Higher Police office, Kawada Shoji, the head of the Japanese intelligence department, walked to the window after hearing the explosion. He looked at the towering flames in the distance with a gloomy expression, wondering where the explosion had occurred and feeling a sense of unease.

The events of the past few days have put immense pressure on Kawada Shoji, the head of the Special Higher Police, with reprimanding telegrams from the Empire arriving one after another in his office.

If it weren't for his teacher, Doiyuu, who shielded him from most of the pressure, he would probably be in a Japanese military court right now.

Just then, a rapid knock on the door interrupted Kawada Shoji's thoughts.

"Come in." Upon hearing Kawada Shoji's voice, the person outside immediately pushed open the door and entered.

"Chief, the suspect we apprehended is downstairs, and the place where we heard the explosion earlier seems to be in the direction of the military police headquarters," said Miyamoto Ichiro, the captain of the action team, as he entered.

"What!" Kawada Shoji was shocked and immediately went to his desk, picked up the phone, and dialed the number of the military police station.

After quickly dialing the number, Kawada Shoji put the receiver to his ear, but all he heard was a busy tone. His expression became even more ferocious and terrifying.

Undeterred, I dialed again, but all I heard was a busy signal.

Kawada Shoji picked up the phone and slammed it to the ground, trying to vent his barely suppressed anger.

After slamming down the phone, Kawada Shoji forced himself to calm down and shouted at Miyamoto Ichiro, who was hiding to the side.

"Go and gather all the personnel involved. Put the people who were just arrested back in jail first, and we'll talk about them when they return. Leave one squad to guard them, and the rest of you come with me to the military police station."

"Hi"

Upon hearing the order, Miyamoto Ichiro immediately responded and then quickly ran out of Kawada Shoji's office to relay the order.

Having completely calmed down, Kawada Shoji's initial unease and anger have now turned into terror.

If the attacked force was indeed the military police, then the last batch of Imperial soldiers stationed in the city were gone.

Before the headquarters sent reinforcements, only his Special Higher Police Section's 500-plus men remained here.

Kawada Shoji felt that the city was now a graveyard for Imperial soldiers.

Forcibly suppressing the fear rising in her heart, she composed herself and quickly went downstairs.

Downstairs, at the entrance of the Japanese Special Higher Police compound, more than 400 Japanese spies had already assembled.

After getting off the bus, Kawada Shoji didn't say anything, but simply waved for everyone to get in and leave.

The gates of the Japanese Special Higher Police opened, and cars drove out, heading straight for the Japanese military police headquarters.

On the way, Kawada Shoji's expression grew increasingly grim, and as they got closer to the military police headquarters, the towering flames from the explosion became clearer and clearer.

A strong smell of gunpowder gradually filled the air, becoming even stronger after the convoy rounded another bend. And in this cold winter night, a gentle breeze carrying a hint of warmth also swept through.

When the convoy finally arrived at the military police headquarters, all the agents were stunned. The once vast headquarters was now a pile of ruins, as if it had been plowed over.

"Quickly put out the fire and rescue people! Hurry! See if there are any survivors!"

Kawada Shoji, who was the first to recover from the shock, shouted loudly, and the remaining agents also came to their senses after hearing Kawada Shoji's voice.

They immediately ran towards the ruins.

Kawada Shoji staggered back two steps as if he had been punched, leaning against the hood of the car behind him.

His eyes were lifeless; he knew he was finished. Even his teacher couldn't protect him anymore, and someone had to take responsibility for this.

And he guessed that person was the one.

Meanwhile, Bai Luo encountered Kawada Shoji's convoy on the way. He dodged into an alley to avoid them and did not attack the convoy.

His current goal is to save people—after all, he's so compassionate. What Bai Luo doesn't know is that a large part of the reason those people were arrested is because of him.

After the convoy passed, Bai Luo immediately continued running towards the Japanese Special Higher Police headquarters.

At this moment, Zhang Weiguo and Hu Zi were crouching in a small alley near the entrance of the Special Higher Police headquarters, peeking out and observing the entrance.

"Tiger, are you sure your sister-in-law has been taken to the Special Higher Police?" Zhang Weiguo asked again to confirm.

"determine."

Hearing Hu Zi's affirmative tone, Zhang Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief; at least he wasn't in the Japanese military police headquarters.

"Commander, what happened to you?" Hu Zi asked, seeing Zhang Weiguo's disheveled appearance.

Zhang Weiguo's face darkened. He and Hu Zi separated to search for Zhang Ya. Finally, around 10 p.m., the Japanese lifted the blockade.

He and Hu Zi went to the vegetable market inside to search, and finally learned from the vegetable vendor that Zhang Ya had also been taken away. It was because Zhang Ya couldn't stand the Japanese beating and scolding a child, so she went up to argue with them.

Finally, they were locked in a police car by secret agents and taken away together, along with the maid.

Helpless, Zhang Weiguo and Hu Zi had to split up. Hu Zi went to guard the entrance of the Special Higher Police station, while Zhang Weiguo went to follow the Japanese soldiers who had just left after the blockade was lifted.

Zhang Weiguo jogged all the way, hurrying as fast as he could, and finally reached the vicinity of the Japanese military police headquarters, but by then the Japanese soldiers had already returned to their camp.

He had just approached the military police station about 50 meters away, preparing to check if the arrested people were being held there, when suddenly an explosion occurred at the Japanese military police station opposite him.

The shockwave that followed knocked him to the ground, where he fell face-first into the mud.

The sudden explosion caught Zhang Weiguo off guard. He staggered to his feet and patted his slightly dizzy head.

Looking back at the Japanese military police headquarters that had been razed to the ground, he felt as if he had been hit on the head with a heavy hammer. After regaining his senses, he scrambled and crawled towards the ruins of the Japanese military police headquarters.

After searching around, Zhang Weiguo found no wreckage of the police car. He felt a little relieved, comforting himself that the people must have been taken to the Japanese Special Higher Police.

Then they quickly took a shortcut to the Japanese Special Higher Police headquarters, a location they had just passed by when they infiltrated the city.

Otherwise, he would have had a hard time finding him in a short time. Although he was very familiar with Haishi, he often took Zhang Ya to stroll through the streets and alleys of Haishi before he went to military school.

However, after graduating from military academy, he never returned to Shanghai and had no idea where the Japanese Special Higher Police had placed their office building.

Thinking of this, Zhang Weiguo said to Hu Zi with an annoyed tone, "Did you hear the explosion just now?"

Tiger nodded.

"The explosion occurred at the Japanese military police headquarters. I don't know how it suddenly happened. I happened to be nearby, and the shockwave from the explosion threw me into the air."

Zhang Weiguo said this while brushing the dust off his clothes.

Tiger quickly asked with concern, "Then, Commander, are you alright?"

Do I look like something's wrong to you?

Tiger looked Zhang Weiguo up and down seriously. Just when Zhang Weiguo was about to get a chill from his gaze, Tiger nodded and said something.

"Yes, Commander, your pants have a hole in the back."

Zhang Weiguo glared at him, ignoring him, and thought to himself, "This bastard, can't he see I don't want to continue this topic? Doesn't he know there's a hole in the back of his pants?"

It was so cold, with the cold wind whistling in, he couldn't help but notice.

He started to grumble in his heart again about that damn bastard who bombed the Japanese military police headquarters. He didn't even check if anyone else was around before he bombed it. He must have been seriously injured when he fell.
