Genius Agent

Chapter 121 Ready

"Great, we'll report to the team leader right away."

Endo was delighted; this was the perfect opportunity for him to take revenge. However, he needed to report the situation before he could mobilize the action team.

Upon receiving the news, Sato immediately went to consult his section chief.

The section chief quickly agreed to their plan.

In the afternoon, one team from the action group assembled at the intelligence group's location. The action group had twenty-five members, while a small team from the Shanghai station's action group consisted of only twelve. Adding the two from the intelligence group, the total was just fourteen.

This time, Sato personally came forward, and six members of the intelligence team went, including Kato Ken.

In terms of numbers, they are more than twice as many as the Shanghai station.

Fighting within the concession requires a swift victory; otherwise, they too will be in danger when the police arrive.

With a larger number of people, Sato was even more confident. He was confident that he could wipe out the group of Chinese agents before the police arrived and achieve a complete victory.

"Set off."

Not long after, Sato led everyone away in batches. In the morning, Endo and Kato Ken had already gone to the vicinity of the dance hall to look for suitable ambush points.

They rented three houses, one of which was a hotel, all in excellent locations.

The plan at Shanghai Station was to ambush them in the street. Killing just one corrupt military officer wouldn't have taken much effort. Unfortunately, they didn't know they had someone else to catch them.

Sato was very pleased with his plan.

The people from Shanghai Station gathered a little later; they didn't arrive at the French Concession until the afternoon.

Two members of the intelligence team were tasked with monitoring Jiang Mushan. Despite his low rank, he acted like a big shot.

Jiang Mushan not only owned a car in the French Concession, but also hired two skilled bodyguards.

Otherwise, killing him would be even easier.

Jiang Mushan knew he had embezzled too much and angered many people. He dared not be careless in the French Concession and spent money to save his life. This amount of money was nothing to him.

"Sir, are you going to the dance hall again today?"

"Go, why not go? Xiao Cui is waiting for me."

At home, Jiang Mushan was having dinner. He would be going to the dance hall later. He was living a comfortable life now.

This time, he embezzled the clothing and bedding of tens of thousands of people and took a large sum of money, enough for him to live a carefree and happy life for a long time.

Live for today, for in this chaotic world, nothing is more important than money.

Money talks.

The Japanese approached him, and Jiang Mushan agreed to cooperate with them in exchange for becoming an official on their side. He would soon leave Shanghai for Northeast China.

He understood that the Japanese didn't value any of his abilities; he was merely a figurehead for the Kuomintang.

What good is just putting on a show?

If given the chance in the future, he will still be able to make money in the same way.

Jiang Mushan is very satisfied with himself now. Who doesn't want to make money these days?

He used to take less than he deserved, but he still gave a lot to the people above him.

As a result, they ate meat while he only drank some soup. This time, he went all out and embezzled so much money at once, a total of hundreds of thousands of silver dollars. This amount of money was enough for him to live a worry-free life for the rest of his days.

You need to eat well to have the energy to dance.

Dinner was lavish. Despite Jiang Mushan's greed, he was mindful of his spending. He gave what he was entitled to and never gave more than he was entitled to.

And he never flaunted his wealth.

This way, he can ensure that the money he brings out is enough for his future enjoyment.

"Shanghai is really great."

Once in the car, Jiang Mushan remarked with a sigh that his house had a side door, and there were no buildings around the side door, making it impossible to use a gun to stop him.

This is also why the Shanghai station wasn't sanctioned by him.

This area is a wealthy neighborhood, so it's already crowded with police. Jiang Mushan also has bodyguards, so there aren't any suitable ambush spots. It's much easier to make a move here than at the dance hall.

"Boss, Shanghai is definitely better. It's the most prosperous city in the Far East."

A bodyguard chuckled and said that when Jiang Mushan escaped, he brought a trusted aide with him, and that the aide was very skilled.

This trusted confidant was a poor soldier who was bullied in the army. Jiang Mushan helped him get revenge and made his life in the army extremely comfortable.

No matter what he does, this confidant will never abandon him.

With such a trusted confidant by his side, he dared to hire two bodyguards; otherwise, he feared they might kill him.

At this moment, his trusted aide was driving, with one bodyguard in the front seat and another in the back seat protecting him.

They all had guns, including him; ordinary people couldn't handle them.

Jiang Mushan has absolute confidence in his own safety.

In a safe house near the dance hall, Kato Ken, Sato, Endo, and others were together.

The entire action team is in place, with three people at each sniper position and ten more near the dance hall, just waiting for the Shanghai station personnel to enter the ambush zone.

There was no new information from Qian Hao, and Kato Ken and the others didn't know where the people at the Shanghai station were or what their status was.

But we'll definitely make our move today.

"Don't rush, just wait patiently."

Sato specially set up a tatami room and a table for himself, where he brewed tea.

He deliberately put on an air of profound mystery.

Even though they knew he was faking it, Endo and the others were still impressed by Sato's attitude. As expected of their leader, he had such a good mindset.

Despite their superior strength and the fact that it was a sneak attack without them having to lift a finger, Endo was still somewhat worried.

They were afraid that something might go wrong with the mission.

"Yes, team leader."

The group accepted the order together. Kato Ken volunteered to help Ito get water and refill his cup, but his mind was already wandering out the window.

Today's arrival is from the second team of the action group. The second team has a hot-tempered member named Ohga Tomo.

He once publicly declared that he was a man without eggs.

Kato Ken didn't know how the task force would allocate today's tasks beforehand, nor could he interfere, but he was familiar with the situation of everyone in the task force.

Ohga Tomo loves sweets, especially sweet glutinous rice balls.

There are sweet glutinous rice balls for sale near the dance hall, but their opening hours are not fixed.

Sometimes early, sometimes late.

When he learned that the Shanghai station was investigating Jiang Mushan, Kato Ken had already begun making arrangements.

He had no help and had to do everything himself.

He deliberately disguised himself as a woman to buy sweet glutinous rice balls from that shop, and he bought a lot.

He deliberately complained that the other party set up their stall too late, and that after his children had eaten, he wouldn't be able to buy anything.

Regardless of the type of vendor, they all value their major customers.

Two days ago, the vendor had set up his stall around the same time as Jiang Mushan arrived, and Kato Ken bought a lot of his glutinous rice balls.

If he sets up his stall as usual today, he will arrive around the same time as Jiang Mushan.

Whenever a glutinous rice ball vendor appears, Ohga Tomo will definitely not be able to resist eating a bowl.

Ohga Tomoya is arrogant, which is his weakness.

Not only that, this guy likes to show his gun whenever he sits down.

Kato Ken had several plans on how to inform the Chinese that there was an ambush and Japanese soldiers present.

He deliberately directed people to more than just this one stall.

The action group consists of two teams, each with individuals who exploit weaknesses. By targeting these weaknesses, their mistakes can be used to inform the Chinese.

It's far better than risking your own life to inform the Chinese.

Kato Ken's revenge is not yet complete, and he doesn't want to be killed prematurely. Even if he dies, he wants to die after these bastards.

"Sweet glutinous rice balls, time to eat sweet glutinous rice balls."

Finally, the hawker's cries for glutinous rice balls rang out from outside the window. As for Jiang Mushan, perhaps because of his military service, he was much more punctual than others and would arrive soon.

The people at Shanghai Station should be ready by now, right?
