Although his left hand was injured, it was all for show. He knew very well that if he hadn't done it on purpose, the wound on his arm would have healed long ago. It has to be said that the integration of Bodhi Seed had an incredible effect on his physique, especially his extremely abnormal recovery ability. When he captured the snow wolf, his abdominal cavity was injured by close-range shock. Normally, a person would need to rest for a period of time after suffering such a serious internal injury, but he was completely fine after just one night of rest!
He removed the bandage and looked at the fading scar on his arm with a sense of helplessness. It seemed he would have to cut himself again tomorrow, otherwise how could he go to Boli Hospital to change his dressing and continue gathering information?
It wasn't until 9 p.m. that evening that Ning Zhiheng finally met with Ji Hongyi. The two met and discussed the situation again.
"How's the situation today? Has the water supply to that safe house been cut off?"
Ji Hongyi nodded and said, "Things went very smoothly. We started last night, and by noon today, their water pipes were completely corroded. There is no water supply in that yard now. The water company's repairmen have arrived and it should take about five days to fix. We need to act quickly."
Ning Zhiheng then asked, "Didn't the Japanese investigate the damage to the water pipelines?"
Ji Hongyi replied, "A few Japanese agents went to take a look, and our people were on site making repairs. They didn't see anything and left."
"Very good!" Ning Zhiheng finally felt relieved. He was very worried that the Japanese agents would discover that the water supply pipeline had been deliberately sabotaged. If that happened, they would alert the Japanese agents, who would then associate it with the two Chinese agents they had already turned, and would suspect that someone was plotting against them.
"Have their movements changed?" Ning Zhiheng asked.
"Today, Yan Kaiding and Xing Shengrong are doing the same thing as yesterday, guarding and identifying people at the two checkpoints."
Around 5 o'clock, all checkpoints were closed. The agents, along with two others, met at the Suzhou Bridge. Because the water supply had been cut off at noon, they didn't return to the safe house but instead went to a Japanese pub called Mokufuen for lunch.
"Mufengyuan? Where is it located? Do you know anything about this tavern?" Ning Zhiheng asked.
"It's located in a tavern at the northernmost end of Songhu Street. It's run by Japanese people, and both Japanese and Chinese customers come, with slightly more Japanese. They also have a total of ten agents protecting them closely," Ji Hongyi explained.
Ning Zhiheng thought for a moment and asked again, "Ten people? Didn't you find any ambushes?"
Ji Hongyi smiled slightly and said, "This hotel is very close to the Special Higher Police, so they must think it's safe here."
As for the people they had secretly deployed, they parted ways at the tavern entrance, leaving only the ten Japanese agents who accompanied them. These agents were originally residents of the safe house and also needed to eat, so they ate at the Mokufuen restaurant. Around seven o'clock, they left the tavern, taking the two traitors back to the safe house.
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "In other words, they chose Mufeng Garden today, but we don't know if they will choose Mufeng Garden again tomorrow. We need to confirm for two more days. If there is no change, it means they will continue to choose Mufeng Garden. Then we will have a target. Moreover, their defenses will be at their weakest at this time. As long as we find the right opportunity, we can deploy people to assassinate them!"
Ji Hongyi said, "Hopefully things go smoothly and they establish fixed habits and locations so that we can begin making arrangements."
After thinking for a moment, Ji Hongyi suggested, "Could we consider poisoning the food? That would be less dangerous."
Ning Zhiheng shook his head and said, "Poisoning is also very difficult. How can we put it into the target's food silently? Besides, with so many people eating, we can't guarantee that everyone will eat and die at the same time without triggering any alarms. You know, this is the heart of the Japanese. Once they trigger an alarm, my men won't be able to get out. It's safer for us to do it ourselves and control it manually!"
Ji Hongyi nodded. According to Ning Zhiheng's analysis, poisoning was no less difficult than doing it himself, and the target's death could not be confirmed. It seemed that assassination was the only option!
