While gunfire rang out on Kangnao Tuo Road, two things happened almost at the same time in Shanghai.

The Americans Baker and his wife were imprisoned at the same time, but they still maintained a certain degree of freedom.

Mrs. Stephanie Baker could go out for a period of time every day to buy some daily necessities accompanied by an agent.

Mr. Cronin Baker will also go to the neighborhood to do some necessary exercises under the supervision of two special agents.

After all, the American couple are actually pawns.

A chess piece used by Japan to bargain with the US government.

Moreover, they were so isolated in Shanghai that they had no way of escaping alone.

The Bakers also know this.

So they never did anything drastic.

As time goes by, people's laziness comes out.

Especially when you repeat the same thing every day, you tend to become lax.

This morning, after breakfast, the Bakers exchanged glances with each other.

Just two days ago, the Italian Falti, who always came to visit them, quietly told them something.

It's today!

They are about to start their escape!

Like every day in the past, they kissed after breakfast.

Then Mrs. Baker went out.

Mr. Baker also went out for exercise.

Mrs. Baker went to the same store she had always gone to to buy what she thought she needed.

Just when she started to select the goods, she suddenly let out a scream.

She clutched her thigh and was in excruciating pain.

"Something bit me."

She shouted in pain in English.

The agent who accompanied her knew some English and quickly asked: "Something bit her."

"Oh, it's not Centipede", right?"

The shop owner hurriedly said: "The tide has returned in the past two days, and there are a lot of these things. Yesterday, I bit a customer. Wife, wife."

The shopkeeper's wife hurriedly came out.

The shop owner pointed at Mrs. Baker and said, "Take her in quickly and apply some cooling ointment on her, otherwise she won't be able to recover for a month."

Bite it on the thigh, which is a woman's vagina, and it's hard for agents to follow her.

This store is so big and has been open here for several years.

The agent didn't care. He lit a cigarette, found a stool, sat down and waited.

"Old man, where is the cooling ointment? You old fool, you used it yesterday and misplaced it somewhere?"

Inside, the shopkeeper's wife could be heard scolding.

"Hey, isn't it in the drawer on the side?"

"You old thing, how could you possibly have one?"

"You haven't taken off your clothes, have you?"

"Nope."

"I'll come looking, I'll come looking."

The shopkeeper took out half a pack of cigarettes and threw it to the agent: "I'll get you another cup of tea."

…

Mr. Cronin Baker likes to exercise in a small park nearby.

Since the Japanese occupied the concession, no one has taken care of this small park, so it is a bit dirty.

But there are a lot of Chinese people here every day.

Mr. Baker's exercise consists of running several laps around a fixed area.

All are within the surveillance range of the two agents.

Every time at this time, the two agents would smoke a few cigarettes, stare at Mr. Baker, and chat to pass the time.

"Down with Japanese imperialism!"

Suddenly, a loud roar sounded in the park.

Then, a large amount of leaflets spilled out.

Suddenly, the park became lively.

With a "boom", a large group of people rushed here to watch the excitement.

The sight of the two agents was instantly blocked.

…

Fan Yuan.

A rapid knock on the door broke the tranquility here.

As soon as the concierge opened the door, he saw a dozen police officers standing outside.

The leading policeman was also recognized by the concierge. He was Sergeant Jian Jianwen.

"Chief Jian, what are you doing?"

"Arrests!"

Jian Jianwen said with a straight face.

"Arrests?"

Before the concierge could react, Jian Jianwen waved his hand: "I'll arrest everyone in the Zhang family. Anyone who resists will be shot without mercy!"

The police rushed in fiercely.

Outside Fanyuan, there are people watching every day.

But as the Japanese gradually lowered their guard against the old man, those spies were just like monks beating the clock.

Every day it is routine to come here for a walk, and then drink and have fun.

When it was time to get off work, I came over again to make sure everything was okay, and then I went back.

At this time, there was no one around.

But today, by coincidence, a secret agent lost an American lighter he had just obtained. He suspected that it had been dropped here, so he turned back to look for his own lighter.

When I saw so many policemen there, I was startled and hurriedly came up to ask what was going on.

"Arrests!"

Jian Jianwen flashed an arrest warrant in front of the spy: "See clearly."

It's really an arrest warrant.

The agent was a little confused: "How many people have been arrested?"

"Catch them all!"

"All? Hi, what happened to the Zhang family?"

The agent was confused. The bad thing was that he said one more thing: "I have to ask."

"Ask? Who are you asking?"

Jian Jianwen sneered: "This person is an accomplice of the Zhang family, let's catch him together and take him to the prison cell!"

These policemen are usually fed up with the anger of these agents. Now that the detective has spoken, what else are they thinking about?

With a "boom", they swarmed forward and, regardless of the agent's struggling and shouting, they handcuffed him directly and threw him into the police car.

At this time, people from the Zhang family, led by Zhang Qishan, walked out of Fan Yuan.

His eyes met with Jian Jianwen's, but neither of them spoke.

When leaving Fan Yuan, Zhang Qishan took one last look back.

After leaving, when can we come back?

"Hurry up, don't waste time!"

Jian Jianwen screamed fiercely.
