Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

At eight o'clock in the evening, Yuan Ye came to Hengyuan Grocery Store. Gu Yan had also returned. This afternoon, he was on the go. He first went to see Chu Yuntian, gave him the portrait drawn by Yuan Ye, and reported the information provided by Yuan Ye.

Then he went to the French Concession and the International Settlement, and surveyed the areas near the British, American and French consulates. He was an old Shanghainese and was familiar with the area. He looked carefully and spent a lot of effort, and finally found several good sniping positions. He marked them on the map one by one, and also marked the estimated distance on it. Basically, they were all between 600 and 1000 meters, which was also the range required by Yuan Ye.

He came back around seven o'clock and sat at the counter for a while when he saw Yuan Ye coming. He greeted the waiter Xiao Li and went upstairs with Yuan Ye.

When they arrived at the inner room, Gu Yan took out a map from his pocket, handed it to Yuan Ye, and said:

"I have surveyed all three consulates and selected several good sniper positions. They are all marked above. Take a look."

"You are quite efficient. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to complete the survey in one afternoon. Fortunately, you were allowed to go."

Yuan Ye smiled and opened the map to read it. It was obvious that Gu Yan had done a solid job. The location, height, and distance of the sniper point were clearly marked. He even explained what the structure on the roof was, the path to the roof, and whether there was anyone. Looking at this map, it was like being there in person. He was indeed a professionally trained agent who graduated from the Qingpu class.

After reading and comparing them repeatedly, Yuan Ye finally chose what he thought was the best sniping location, which was the Green Mail Steamship Building near the French Consulate. There were several reasons why he chose this place.

First of all, choosing to take action near the French Consulate has an advantage that the British and American Consulates do not have, that is, there is a long lawn from the gate of the French Consulate to the main building of the consulate, while the lawns of the British and American Consulates are relatively short, which means that Chen Lu is exposed to the muzzle of the gun for a longer time and can find a better shooting angle.

Second, Chen Lu’s itinerary in Shanghai was kept secret and not disclosed to the public. His last stop was the French Consulate on the afternoon of the next day. The previous itinerary had been smooth without any problems, so it was easy for the security personnel to become lax.

Third, the Green Mail Building is in a very good location, about 1000 meters away from the French Consulate. Few people would believe that someone could hit a target at such a long distance, so generally no one is sent to guard it. Moreover, the building is ten stories high, and there is a tower on the roof. Looking out from the window of the tower, the entire French Consulate, including the lawn, is in full view, and the tower is usually empty, making it an excellent sniper position.

Yuan Ye believed that with his current level as a top shooter, coupled with a Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle equipped with the most advanced scope, it would be no problem for him to kill Chen Lu at a distance of 1000 meters. He had the confidence.

Gu Yan saw that Yuan Ye was still thinking, so he asked:

"Is it hard to decide? I think the International Christian Auditorium is a good choice. Its bell tower has a great view and it's only about 600 meters away from the U.S. Consulate. It's in a relatively convenient location. You might consider it."

"The points you picked are all good. It's really hard to decide. I will consider your suggestions. I plan to think about it carefully after I go back."

He didn't plan to tell Gu Yan that he had already chosen a sniper location, mainly because it was too troublesome to explain. Gu Yan was a little worried about being a sniper himself, and he definitely didn't believe that he could accurately snipe the target from 1000 meters away. Now telling him would only make Gu Yan more worried, thinking that he was overestimating his own abilities and causing unnecessary trouble. If he put himself in Gu Yan's position, he would definitely not believe it.

"Well, think about it. There is one more thing you have to take into account. In Chen Lu's security plan, the Japanese will arrange for people from No. 76 to occupy the commanding heights near the British, American and French consulates. This is also a threat. You must be careful."

"I have already thought about this, but thank you for reminding me. Well, I can't stay here for too long. I have to go. You just wait here for my good news."

Yuan Ye knew that if he stayed any longer, Gu Yan would continue to nag. Of course, Yuan Ye knew that this was because Gu Yan was worried about his safety and it was purely out of brotherly concern. Normally, he was not a nagging person. On the contrary, he didn't talk much.

After leaving Hengyuan Grocery Store, Yuan Ye returned home, took out the violin case from the space, assembled the Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle, installed the PE scope, played with it for a while, and then put it back into the space. The next morning, Yuan Ye bought a newspaper on the way to work. The newspaper did not publish the news of Chen Lu coming to Shanghai. It seemed that the news blockade was quite strict, which was also what Yuan Ye hoped to see.

After arriving at the office, Yuan Ye chatted with his colleagues for a while and began to listen to the movements in the Secretary-General's office. He didn't know how the play against Qian Hao went last night and whether it was successful. If it was successful, Qian Hao would definitely report to Su Xiwu today.

Half an hour later, Yuan Ye heard a knock on the door of the Secretary-General's office. It was Qian Hao. Yuan Ye thought to himself that it seemed that last night's scene must have been a success.

As expected, Qian Hao entered the secretary-general's office, closed the door, and whispered excitedly to Su Xiwu:

"Mayor, I have found the assassin you wanted."

"It's only been one day, and you found it so quickly?"

Su Xiwu said in an incredulous tone.

"Qian Hao, this matter is of great importance and cannot be taken lightly. This assassin is the key to the whole thing. You must choose carefully. If you can't find a suitable candidate, you'd better give up this plan. You can't act hastily. You must not just find someone to do the job. This will cause delays."

Su Xiwu was obviously worried that Qian Hao had found the assassin so quickly, and spoke in a stern tone.

"Mayor, I understand this principle. Don't worry, I will never just pick someone to be an assassin. I won't report to you if I'm not sure."

Facing Su Xiwu's doubts, Qian Hao still spoke with confidence.

"Well, tell me what you think."

So Qian Hao reported to Su Xiwu everything that happened last night.

"From what you said, this Wang Jian has the demeanor of an ancient knight. He is indeed the most suitable candidate."

Su Xiwu was an old fox, very suspicious. After he finished speaking, he thought for a moment and still felt a little uneasy, so he continued:

"Qian Hao, do you think this is too coincidental?"
