"Ahem."

A violent cough came from the room.

Hearing this cough, Lu Fei, who was already on standby in the hidden area of ​​the corridor, couldn't help but frown.

He was even worried that Xu Zhixin would cough up somehow.

Lu Fei winked at his subordinates: Keep a close eye on him.

He himself quietly followed the corridor to a room near the edge.

The rooms near the stairs on the left and right sides of the corridor have been moved in separately by Lu Fei.

His mission is to lead the team to stare at Xu Zhixin.

Dong Zhengguo led the task of arresting Sheng Shuyu on the outside.

Lu Fei was a little dissatisfied with this arrangement.

However, Chen Mingchu made a clear attitude that no matter who caught Sheng Shuyu, the credit was all for everyone. Chen Mingchu said that he personally followed Lu Fei's troops to act, so Lu Fei felt a little more comfortable.

However, as Chen Mingchu's "old subordinate" at the Shanghai station, Lu Fei still knows Chen Mingchu well. He thinks that the biggest possibility of Chen Mingchu's choice to arrest Xu Zhixin in the inside is:

Chen Mingchu is afraid of death, so it is safer here.

"I've been coughing all the time. I'm not the elite who came to Shanghai to do big things." Lu Fei shook his head and said, "I'm just a tuberculosis."

As he said, he said in a sarcastic tone, "Sheng Shuyu chose this thing..."

"Maybe it's pharyngitis," Chen Mingchu said with a smile, "Besides, if Xu Zhixin hadn't been addicted to smoking, we wouldn't have found this place so smoothly."

At this moment, a subordinate flashed into the room, "Team leader, Xu Zhixin is out."

Chen Mingchu frowned and he looked at Lu Fei.

"Our people are very careful, and Xu Zhixin is unlikely to discover it." Lu Fei replied with a look of Chen Mingchu.

"Start." Chen Mingchu's expression was solemn, "Don't act rashly."

"I'll go and stare at it myself." Lu Fei said.

Chen Mingchu nodded.

...

"Saiying Mu!" Xu Zhixin whispered while coughing, "I'm selling fake cigarettes to death, and the whole family is losing!"

He has his own abilities to be attracted to by Sheng Shuyu. His ability is that he has a very strong memory, which is a talent for telegraphers.

In addition, Xu Zhixin’s newspaper sending fingering method is very fast and he is an excellent graduate of the Military Intelligence Commission’s Xiamen Special Telecommunications Class.

He was addicted to smoking because the telegrapher needed a strong memory. He was arrested and sentenced by the Japanese, so he had mental problems and was prone to sleepiness.

Of course, it is precisely because he was arrested by the Japanese and was tortured by the Japanese without being exposed. This loyalty and strong will are the reason why Sheng Shuyu glanced at Xu Zhixingao.

However, I don’t know if my throat was damaged by pepper water or what happened. His throat was very harsh on cigarettes and could only smoke tobacco from his hometown.

Look, he just bought Huamei cigarettes today and felt something was wrong after only two puffs:

This is wrong tobacco.

Sure enough, my throat began to feel uncomfortable and I couldn't suppress my cough.

"Cough cough cough." Xu Zhixin came to the counter on the first floor, "Shopkeeper, do you have any throat syndrome?"

As he said that, he took out an advertisement paper from his body and slapped it on the counter, "Here, that's it."

This is an advertisement paper for "Mashi Pharmaceuticals Supervisor" which was distributed by the rickshaw driver when he was riding a rickshaw.

The coachman also enthusiastically reminded that this medicine is sold at the counters of major hotels.

The advertisement paper said that this medicine controls all pain in the throat.

The shopkeeper didn't know what was wrong, and he was in a daze.

"Cough cough cough, shopkeeper, Lup Schizophrenia, cough cough cough." Xu Zhixin asked again.

The shopkeeper came to his senses and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes."

"Well, please let me go." The shopkeeper came to the row of cabinets behind the counter and whispered to the clerk.

The guy was stunned for a moment and quickly said, "Shopkeeper, I'll get it."

At the shopkeeper's eyes, the guy opened a drawer, took out a medicine bottle, looked carefully at the name on the medicine bottle, and then handed the medicine bottle to the shopkeeper.

"Ahem, cough, hurry up, I'm going to death."

On this side, Xu Zhixin seemed to be so angry that he urged him repeatedly.

"Here you come." With a 'bo', the shopkeeper pulled out the cork of the medicine bottle, "How many do you want?"

"Three." Xu Zhixin said impatiently, "Let's hurry up."

As he said that, he took the three pills poured out by the shopkeeper, threw the words, "Stop the account", and almost couldn't wait to stuff one pill into his mouth. Without drinking water, he swallowed it into his stomach.

But I seemed to choke and finally swallowed it, and then I coughed violently again.

"What a pity." The shopkeeper looked at Xu Zhixin who was going upstairs and sighed.

Then he saw the guy's meaningful gaze, and he quickly shut up and showed a flattering smile.

upstairs.

"No abnormality." Lu Fei returned to the room to report to Chen Mingchu. He had just peeked in the corner and saw everything. "Xu Zhixin felt uncomfortable in his throat, so he went to the counter to buy Ma's throat powder."

Chen Mingchu nodded with confidence.

"Now I'll wait for Uncle Sheng to enter the trap." His eyes showed the light of expectation.

Back to the room.

While coughing, Xu Zhixin closed the door and bolted it with his backhand.

When the door was closed and separated him from everything outside, his eyes became extremely solemn.

In less than half a minute, he saw at least three things wrong with the shopkeeper's medicine scene.

He said that he wanted to have the throat sepsis powder, and usually the guys would take the initiative to come forward and speak.

But just now, the shopkeeper was stunned, the guy was not stunned, the guy was staring at him.

Then, the shopkeeper came back to his senses and went to get the medicine, but the guy still didn't have the awareness of taking the medicine.

Then, the shopkeeper actually said to the guy, "Please give it a minute." Although the shopkeeper's voice was very low, Xu Zhixin could still hear it clearly:

The telegrapher must have excellent hearing.

How could the shopkeeper be so polite to the guy?

This can only show one problem, this guy is fake.

In addition, the guy found the medicine bottle and looked carefully at the name of the medicine bottle.

This is not right. Is it the throat severity he wants? The guy just glanced at the bottle and knew it. He didn't need to look at the name of the medicine bottle at all.

At that time, Xu Zhixin's heart fell to the bottom.

These details all illustrate:

Exposed!

And he has been surrounded by the enemy!

Although he is not an experienced field agent and may not have much experience in the enemy, he will make some mistakes, but as a telegrapher, he observes carefully.

Xu Zhixin thought about rushing out of the hotel and seeking a glimmer of hope.

However, he gave up this idea in an instant.

Since the enemy had touched this place and had laid a siege, he could not have broken through alone, and he was unarmed at that time.

He gave up this impulsive and ineffective idea and returned to the room.

It's not because he had other ways, but because he suddenly realized something:

The enemy did not take action, there was only one possibility. They were thinking about catching turtles in the jar, and they were waiting for Director Sheng!

Xu Zhixin knew that he could not escape.

The only thing he can do now is wait and wait for the opportunity to warn Sheng Shuyu.

When is the time to warn?

He was going to shoot and warn before Sheng Shuyu stepped into the hotel and entered the enemy's encirclement.

To accomplish all this, all he has to do is complete the final battle and then face death.

...

Time is passing.

Xu Zhixin took out his pocket watch from time to time to look at the time.

As the night became darker, Xu Zhixin became more and more nervous.

Sheng Shuyu said before leaving the house that if there are no special circumstances, he will definitely return to the hotel.

Xu Zhixin came to the window, and he lifted up a corner of the curtain and looked out.
