Guotai Theater was the largest and most luxurious theater in Chongqing.
This was the place that No. 76's people were going to secretly, as written in the documents of the communications department.
Around five o'clock in the evening, a black Ford was parked on the street.
Xu Xiaolian took out a cigarette from his pack and stuffed it into his mouth. His eyes were like an eagle's as he scanned the car window.
There were quite a number of pedestrians on the street. The big vendors took the opportunity to shout and sell their goods.
Guotai Theater was next to the busiest streets in Chongqing, which was one of the reasons why it was so popular.
Immediately, Xu Xiaolian turned his gaze to the new signboard hanging in the Guotai Theater.
A line of bold words was written on it:
At seven o'clock in the evening, Spring in the Jade Hall was on time.
No. 76 sent people all the way from Shanghai to watch the show, right?
Come to Chongqing... Could it be that another traitor had appeared in the military headquarters, or was it the middle commander?
The thoughts of these traitors were hard to fathom. Xu Xiaolian was too lazy to think about it. He just needed to find the target and bring it back for interrogation.
He took a deep puff of his cigarette, and there was a sound behind the car.
It was a team member who had disguised himself as a businessman to investigate the situation in the theater. He was also Xu Xiaolian's most capable subordinate, Li Xun.
He pretended to get into the car with his briefcase and then leaned over to report to Xu Xiaolian.
"Captain, we haven't found anything in the theater yet.”
After Li Xun finished speaking, Xu Xiaolian extinguished the cigarette butt and flicked it out the window.
He thought for a moment and said.
"Alright, there's no hurry. The show hasn't started yet.”
Xu Xiaolian took out another cigarette from his cigarette pack and was about to stuff it into his mouth when he suddenly noticed a tea stall not far away.
"That tea stall…"
Xu Xiaolian narrowed his eyes and put the cigarette beside his ear.
Li Xun looked in the direction of the tea stall that Xu Xiaolian had mentioned. He frowned and replied.
"Captain, what's wrong with the tea stall?"
"The tea stall is diagonally opposite the theater. It's a good place for reconnaissance and attack.”
"Yes, I'll go now!"
Li Xun got out of the car. Other than the driver, she was the only one left in the car.
Xu Xiaolian took a deep breath and put down the cigarette by his ear.
He placed it by his nose and sniffed it carefully, the corners of his lips curling up into a smile.
Wisps of smoke came out of the car window. Xu Xiaolian continued to smoke one cigarette after another as time passed.
...
Night soon fell. The sparrows returned to their nests and landed on the telephone poles, chirping non-stop.
It was a quarter to seven, and Spring in the Jade Hall was about to start. The high-profile Guotai Theater no longer allowed customers to enter.
Team One and Team Two had already deployed their troops and were waiting for Xu Xiaolian's order.
However, he did not seem to have any intention of taking action.
"Li Xun, do you want to ask the captain when we're going to take action?”
"That's right. It's been almost four hours. I'm tired of drinking this tea!”
"That's right. Seeing that the guests are all going in one after another, are we going to sit here and wait for the show to end?”
At a tea stall diagonally across the street, a few members of Team Two who were pretending to be chatting over tea started complaining.
Li Xun, who was originally dressed in a suit and leather shoes, had already changed into a coarse and tattered shirt. He lowered his hat and dressed up as the tea stall owner.
Li Xun heard the words of the second team members. To be honest, he was also a little anxious.
After all, it was the Japanese spy who caught No. 76, so everyone was very concerned.
It was getting dark, but Xu Xiaolian, who was smoking in the car, still showed no signs of preparing to take action.
"I'll go ask."
As Li Xun spoke, she put down the cloth she used to wipe the table, picked up a pot of tea, and walked towards the black Ford by the street.
"Boss, the Biluochun that you just ordered, I've prepared it for you and sent it over!”
Walking to the front passenger seat, Li Xun placed the cup of tea in front of Xu Xiaolian and said pretentiously.
Hearing this, the latter turned around, and a ruthless expression flashed across his face.
Fortunately, the streets were crowded and bustling, just enough to drown out the sound of their conversation.
"What are you doing?"
"Captain, everyone is waiting anxiously. I want to ask when we can make a move..."
"Is this your first time working with me?"
Xu Xiaolian said through gritted teeth.
He wasn't targeting Li Xun. He could read Li Xun's inner thoughts. He knew that Li Xun was doing her duty.
Xu Xiaolian exhaled deeply and continued.
"Although No. 76 isn't as good as before, she's still cunning and cunning. We need to be 120% prepared before we can catch her. Go and tell the second team that if they can do it, then do it. If they can't, then go back to the headquarters and find Qi Siyuan.”
Xu Xiaolian's aura was not to be underestimated. His expression did not change, and he could still say something that would make people shudder.
Li Xun was very tactful. He didn't say another word and retreated.
Very soon, Xu Xiaolian's cold gaze followed Li Xun's back to the tea stall diagonally opposite. He saw the members of Team Two frowning from time to time, muttering something at once.
"The upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked."
Xu Xiaolian turned around and cursed in his heart.
At the same time, in the Guotai Theater.
"Since this lawsuit has not been executed, I can relax about Yu Tangchun. I will look back after leaving the Imperial Censorate…"
As they sang hard on stage, applause rang out from time to time.
The wonderful melodies entered their ears, and everyone in the audience couldn't help but be filled with joy, their faces revealing satisfied smiles.
However, there were two people among them who did not raise their lips or cheer.
"When will this show end?"
"You should be asking when the people from the Central Committee will arrive.”
"When will the people from the Central Committee arrive?”
"He said eight o'clock. It should be soon.”
The stage shone brightly and coincidentally shone on the two people who were talking.
They were a man and a woman with their arms hooked together, but it was obvious that they were pretending to be husband and wife.
The man was wearing a dark blue suit. His hair was neat and tidy, and his leather shoes were polished to the point of glistening.
The woman was wearing a fashionable black dress with a pearl necklace around her neck.
The two of them looked simple, but they did not lose their style.
At first glance, it was hard not to think that they were rich people who had never touched the water.
There was still a quarter of an hour before eight o'clock. Xu Xiaolian acted alone and used the Bone Shrinking Technique to sneak into the back door of the Guotai Theater.
The Guotai Theater was two stories high. The first floor was built into a hall with a ticket counter and a bathroom.
Usually, when the second floor started singing, there was not much light left on the first floor. There were only a few small lamps left for people to illuminate.
Xu Xiaolian strode into the first floor and went straight to the bathroom.
Here, he saw a person who shocked him!
Liang Zhongchun, in the world of The Pretender, Director of the Operations Division of the No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters of the Wang puppet government.
