On every main road leaving the concession, a large number of Japanese military police and puppet troops suddenly appeared. These military police set up checkpoints under the command of officers to inspect every pedestrian coming and going. Except for the elderly and weak, anyone without a document will be arrested by the military police immediately.

The noise this time was very loud and the inspection was very strict. Moreover, due to the previous failure, Kawashima Kanetake kept patrolling every checkpoint to prevent anyone from being lazy.

The traitors in the concession also took action and began to look for the new faces gathered together, which made the concession a little confused.

Such a big move by the Japanese naturally alarmed all walks of life in Tianjin. First of all, even if the Tianjin Concession authorities have expressed their dissatisfaction, the Japanese's behavior can be said to have blocked the concession, not to mention that there are still a large number of traitors causing trouble in the concession.

The Japanese's barbaric behavior made these foreign consuls very dissatisfied and directly contacted the Japanese senior officials, but this was the meaning of Yuujiro. The Japanese senior officials naturally had a tough attitude and did not give any face to the consulates of various countries in the concession.

Although they were slapped in the face by the Japanese, these foreign consuls had no choice. After all, Japan is becoming more and more powerful in international affairs, especially the outbreak of the European War, which made European and American countries have no time to look east and can only be suppressed by the Japanese. Therefore, the concession did not dare to be tough and turned a blind eye to the behavior of the traitors in the concession.

The party organization in Tianjin immediately discovered the actions of the Japanese. After all, the underground party also knew that the returnees would never give up leaving the dock safely.

After receiving this news, several senior underground party officials immediately met to discuss countermeasures. After all, the concession has been blocked, so it is not easy to leave.

However, after discussing for a long time, there was no countermeasure. Finally, Zhao Chengde decided to go out to check the situation in person and see if there was a chance to leave.

Zhao Wentian objected to Zhao Chengde's decision. After all, it was really dangerous to ask the senior management of the party organization to check the situation.

But the person in charge of the underground party also knew the severity of the matter. After all, escorting the returned overseas Chinese to Shaanxi was the most important thing, so he had to tell Zhao Chengde to be careful.

After leaving his residence, Zhao Chengde walked towards the direction of leaving the concession. Because the concession was not big, this old party member had been living in the concession and was very familiar with the terrain here and soon arrived at the Japanese check-in office.

Seeing the Japanese inspecting pedestrians coming and going, Zhao Chengde frowned because the Japanese inspected them too strictly and had no loopholes left.

Moreover, the situation this time is different from the past. In the past, the Japanese commanded the puppet army to inspect the blockade, but this time it was the Japanese military police who took action, while the puppet army on the side was just taking action and doing some physical work.

After a while of observation, Zhao Chengde did not see the opportunity and touched the good citizen certificate in his arms. The old party member was ruthless and decided to go over and try it out in person to see if he could find any flaws.

Because he has been in Tianjin for a long time and has organizational help, Zhao Chengde has already obtained a good citizen certificate. In the eyes of the Japanese, he should be a legal citizen, so he dares to take risks.

There were long queues at the checkpoints. After all, the Japanese inspected them very strictly, which led to a slow speed. However, because the Japanese military police were very cruel and the Chinese were timid, the order was pretty good, and there was no sign of chaos at all.

Moreover, the queue was quiet and no one spoke, except for the sound of Japanese inquiring and searching.

More than ten minutes later, it was Zhao Chengde's turn. A Japanese man first searched his whole body, then took the good citizen certificate from his hand, and asked in half-baked Chinese: "What are you going to do?"

"Taijun, a villain businessman, wants to go out to buy things."

Zhao Chengde's tone was a little scared, and a humble smile appeared on his face, acting like an ordinary person.

After looking at Zhao Chengde's good citizen certificate, he saw that the person in front of him was very ordinary. The Japanese returned the certificate and then said loudly: "Leave quickly."

After receiving the good citizen certificate, Zhao Chengde kept leaving, thinking that although the Japanese were strict in their inspection, they did not make any mistakes. It seemed that they were looking for overseas Chinese.

But you can't find anyone if you do this. After all, people with identity problems will not leave the checkpoint publicly, so this old party member is thinking about the real purpose of the Japanese.

Zhao Chengde had just taken two steps and before he could walk far away, there was a problem with the inspection next to him. He saw a young man in his twenties, who was stopped by the Japanese.

The young man explained: "Taijun, the villain is a good person. He just came from Shanghai and had not had time to apply for the certificate, but my family is in Tianjin, I..."

"Baga, be honest."

Before the young man could finish his words, the Japanese savagely interrupted him and smashed the young man with a butt. Then the puppet army next to him came over and took the young man aside.

Seeing the puppet army bringing people to the corner, there were seven or eight people there, but these people were all young men and women, and they were obviously people of some culture.

Seeing this, Zhao Chengde's heart moved and immediately made some guesses, so he left without stopping.

After walking around the city, I found that all the roads leaving the city were also checkpoints set by Japanese people. Anyone who wants to leave must also undergo strict inspections.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Chengde was not testing, so he returned to the concession from another road.

On the way back, Zhao Chengde also found a large number of gang members asking about something on the streets and alleys.

Zhao Chengde could recognize a few of these gangs, all of whom were traitors who defected to the Japanese. After all, he lived in the concession for a long time and was naturally familiar with the situation of these people.

After half an hour, Zhao Chengde finally figured out what these gang members were asking about, so he felt nervous and immediately returned to his residence.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Wentian asked: "Comrade Chengde, why did you come back? What did you see?"

Zhao Chengde has been away for a long time, so Zhao Wentian is very worried and has a bit of anxiety in his tone.

"Comrade Wentian, the Japanese are looking for our whereabouts, and they have also mobilized traitors in the concession, and many gangs are also looking for our whereabouts."

Zhao Chengde did not delay and immediately told the situation.

When Zhao Chengde said something, Zhao Wentian frowned, but he had no intention of panic. After all, this old party member knew that the Japanese would definitely not give up.

Moreover, after receiving the overseas Chinese, Zhao Wentian was thinking about what to do when encountering a critical situation, so he calmly said: "Don't be confused, this is the concession, not the Japanese territory. It is not easy for them to find us."

As soon as Zhao Wentian finished speaking, Zhao Chengde said solemnly: "Comrade Wentian, the situation this time is unusual. The Japanese not only blocked the concession, but also had clear goals. At the checkpoints, they arrested young people, and there were no elderly or weak, and their age range had been determined.

And I also noticed that when Japanese people check the good citizen certificate, if they find that it is a new one, they will focus on investigations."

"It's nothing. At worst, we can delay a few more days in the concession. I believe the Japanese will not search indefinitely."

Zhao Wentian was still not panicked. After all, in his heart, he believed that the underground party had the initiative and as long as the Japanese did not find a place to find a place to stay, there would be no problem with safety.

"Comrade Wentian, I'm afraid this will not work, because the Japanese mobilized a large number of traitors to look for us in the concession.

Moreover, these traitors have learned about our situation and know that the overseas Chinese are all young people and will gather together, which makes our situation a little dangerous."

Under normal circumstances, Zhao Chengde was not worried, but the concession was not large and there were people of all kinds. So many people gathered together and it was easy to be discovered.

Even if Zhao Chengde lives, it is not very safe. After all, the neighbors nearby are all ordinary people. If there are people from gangs coming to inquire about the situation, these ordinary people will definitely not keep it confidential.

As soon as Zhao Chengde finished speaking, Zhao Wentian's face changed, because the current situation is indeed dangerous. After all, the people in the gang are familiar with the situation in the concession and have clear goals, so they can be found sooner or later.

Seeing Zhao Wentian's face change, Zhao Chengde was not surprised because he knew what was going on now, so he immediately said: "I guess these gang members will not find me in a short time, and it won't take a long time, so it's not necessarily the case. Now we still need to transfer as soon as possible."

Zhao Wentian said anxiously: "But the concession has been blocked, and the returned overseas Chinese have no documents yet and cannot leave at all. We are almost trapped in the concession."

Zhao Wentian is really anxious now, because if he delays, he will be found by the Japanese sooner or later. Thinking of this, the person in charge of the underground party would feel a little guilty.

When making the plan, Zhao Chengde suggested repairing the city, believing that the city is large and there are several safe houses. If there is really something out, there is room for maneuver and you can hide in other places.

However, Zhao Wentian believes that it is better to be safer in the concession. After all, the concession is the territory of foreigners, and the Japanese cannot do anything randomly. The city of Tianjin is the territory of Japanese people. They can unscrupulously check and search, which is very dangerous.

Although Zhao Chengde believed that the area of ​​the concession was too small and there was only this stronghold, and something really happened and there was no other place to hide, he still followed Zhao Wentian's advice because he did not think that the Japanese would block the concession, after all, foreigners would not agree.

But unexpectedly, these foreigners are all bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. When facing the weak and incompetent National Government, they can be said to be a mess, but when facing the strong Japanese, they dare not say anything. Even the concession was blocked and a large number of traitors entered the concession to make trouble, they did not dare to say anything.

Thinking of this, Zhao Chengde hated these imperialists very much, but there was no way, so he had to use his brain very quickly to come up with a solution. After all, the safety of overseas Chinese is the most important.
