After sneaking into the luxurious villa in the Presidential Palace where the traitor Wang Jingwei lived, Shen Yutang secretly kidnapped one of the villa's servants.
In this storage room, Shen Yutang held a sharp dagger to the servant's neck.
If she yells or doesn't obey her orders, Shen Yutang plans to make her suffer.
If this maid was only working in the presidential villa where the traitor Wang Jingwei lived to earn some money, she had absolutely no reason to risk her life to protect him.
Of course, if she herself believes that everything Wang Jingwei did was not wrong, but a roundabout way to save the country, and therefore chooses to protect Wang Jingwei.
Shen Yutang had nothing more to say but to make this servant with traitorous thoughts pay the price with her life.
However, after being tied to a chair in the storeroom by Shen Yutang and threatened with a gleaming dagger, the maid immediately confessed everything she knew.
"Good sir, please don't kill me! I'm just an ordinary servant hired to work at the Presidential Palace."
"How could I not know that the man surnamed Wang is a major traitor?! But we ordinary people also need to make a living, don't we? We always need to find ways to earn some money!"
“I won’t stop you from killing that guy surnamed Wang, but I really don’t know which room he sleeps in every night. There are thirty bedrooms in total, and he sleeps in one randomly every night. Even we servants don’t know which room he sleeps in.”
From the servant's words, Shen Yutang learned that the traitor Wang was indeed very cunning; even the room he slept in every night was randomized.
Using her "eavesdropping" skill, Shen Yutang was able to confirm that the maid was not lying.
So next, Shen Yutang inquired about the specific floors of these thirty rooms and their exact locations within the Presidential Palace.
Upon learning that these thirty bedrooms were not all in the same area, Shen Yutang was somewhat annoyed.
I have also gained a new understanding of the caution of the traitor Wang Jingwei!
After learning everything the maid knew, Shen Yutang simply chopped her into unconsciousness again.
Just to be on the safe side, she also taped the maid's mouth shut and gave her an anesthetic injection before leaving.
In this way, at least the maid won't wake up so quickly, and even if she does, she won't be able to escape the storage room to warn the large number of bodyguards outside the presidential palace.
Shen Yutang was not the kind of person who would kill innocent people indiscriminately. Since this servant was very cooperative with her, it meant that she was only hired to come to the Presidential Palace to earn some living expenses.
As long as this person does not hinder her assassination mission, Shen Yutang has no need to kill another ordinary commoner.
After doing all this, Shen Yutang found a servant's outfit in the storeroom and used the "Holographic Projection" skill to transform into the servant's appearance.
Carrying a bucket and a mop, Shen Yutang left the storage room in a very unreserved manner.
To prevent anyone else from entering the storage room, they discovered the maid who had been tied up.
After leaving the storeroom, Shen Yutang twisted a key from the maid's body and stuck it into the storeroom's keyhole.
As a result, unless a locksmith is called immediately, the storage room will not be able to be opened from the outside for the time being.
Carrying a bucket and a mop, Shen Yutang searched the different areas where the thirty bedrooms were located.
These thirty bedrooms, where the notorious traitor Wang Jingwei usually slept, were distributed in the four cardinal directions of the Presidential Palace.
Furthermore, some rooms are on the second floor and some are on the third floor, so they are quite scattered.
Furthermore, the servant had previously mentioned that the corridors and bedrooms where these thirty traitors, known as Wang Jingwei, slept would be patrolled by bodyguards at all times.
What's even more deceptive is that some bedrooms might even have bodyguards appointed by the traitor Wang Jingwei sleeping there as a kind of bait for protection.
In other words, it would be even more difficult for Shen Yutang to use the "map navigation watch" function to determine which of the thirty rooms were occupied, thus making it more difficult to determine the room where the traitor Wang Jingwei was staying tonight.
After all, on the "map navigation watch," the person surnamed Wang is just an ordinary small black dot, and the bodyguards and guards are also displayed as the same small black dot.
There is only one chance. If Shen Yutang chooses the wrong room, she may alert the bodyguards who are pretending to be asleep in the room, which could then alert the entire Presidential Palace!
Shen Yutang knew that this man surnamed Wang had been assassinated no less than a dozen times!
His almost obsessive vigilance was cultivated little by little through repeated assassinations.
It was precisely because of this man's extraordinary vigilance that he was able to evade assassination attempts by anti-Japanese guerrillas time and time again.
Knowing these specific details, Shen Yutang decided to start the search from the rooms on the east side.
She initially planned to rule out any empty bedrooms, regardless of whether the person in the room was actually a traitor like Wang Jingwei.
Wearing a "map navigation watch" on her wrist, Shen Yutang carried a bucket and a mop to the bedrooms of the house on the east side.
Along the way, Shen Yutang also encountered some puppet government soldiers patrolling the area at night. However, when these patrolling soldiers saw that she was a servant from the Presidential Palace, they did not come forward to question her.
They treated Shen Yutang as if she were invisible, completely ignoring her, and continued patrolling other areas.
Upon arriving at the building on the east side, Shen Yutang entered the house and activated the scanning function of her "map navigation watch," scanning the structure of every room in the building.
Like navigation software in later generations, if Shen Yutang stands outside this building, she can only look down at the building from the air.
The building looks like a gray cube, and it doesn't fully reveal every detail of its internal structure.
Only after Shen Yutang enters the building and activates the scanning function of her watch can a graphic scan of every part of the building's structure be performed.
Once the scan is complete, Shen Yutang can zoom in and out on the "map navigation watch" to view every room in the building.
Finally, Shen Yutang discovered that one of the eight bedrooms on the third floor of the building showed signs of being occupied.
After all, no black dots appeared in any of the other bedrooms in the building.
Only in the last bedroom on the third floor was there a small, motionless black dot.
However, based solely on the display on the "map navigation watch," Shen Yutang could not confirm whether the person was asleep in the bedroom.
Logically speaking, the bodyguards and guards arranged by the traitor Wang Jingwei in these bedrooms were meant to be bait to lure the assassins; they certainly couldn't have actually fallen asleep.
If the bait actually falls asleep, and he's unlucky, he might be mistaken for a traitor by the infiltrating assassins and killed.
Even if the assassin doesn't kill anyone, the bodyguards and guards acting as bait will miss the perfect opportunity to warn of the assassin.
