The suitcase that Sinclair brought did contain a lot of useful things.

Especially the large amount of documentation.

From these documents, it can also be seen that Chiyuki Akagi was a very capable person. If he had not died, he might have really made a career.

He knew that the patrols in the public concession did not listen to him, so he checked the information of each detective and captain in the shortest possible time and classified them into categories.

Which detectives, captains, are difficult to tame. Which captains, detectives, can be bribed.

Those who are to be fired and who will be chosen as successors are all clearly marked.

There are also some contacts that have been grasped by the military and how they should be controlled in the future. In a letter from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that was not sent out in time, he clearly planned to use his current position to gradually reduce the military control in the public concession.

A comprehensive plan for survival.

This man died in time, otherwise he would have caused great damage to the military command if he had secured this position.

At the bottom of the information, there is a document marked "Top Secret".

Meng Shaoyuan began to be grateful to Sinclair. If this person had not acted quickly and took control of the office when the Japanese were panicking because of Akagi's death, he might not have been able to see these documents.

He opened the file:

"The 'dog ears' have entered the dog's den... The military commander is in a hurry to trace them, and they plan to hide the 'dog ears' for a period of time and then move them out of the public concession..."

Dog ears? Dog holes?

Is this a code name? But what does it mean?

Are the military commanders investigating urgently?

Why don’t you know anything about it?

Dog ears should represent individuals.

The dog's den is his hiding place.

What about the others?

"Wu Jingyi."

"Here, what's going on?"

Meng Shaoyuan closed the document: "Do you know who among us has the codename 'Dog Er'?"

"Dog ears?" Wu Jingyi was also stunned: "I have no impression. Maybe Zhou Weilong or Cheng Yiming is responsible?"

After the military unified operations were dispersed, Meng Shaoyuan, Zhou Weilong, and Cheng Yiming each took charge of their own areas. They also communicated with each other and supported each other, but it involved high confidentiality, so other departments were not clear about it.

"Get in touch with Mr. Dai." Meng Shaoyuan had no time to think: "There are only two words in the telegram, dog ears."

"I know, I'll do it right away."

…

Tian Qi was lying on the ground, his eyes wide open, looking straight up.

His whole body was covered in bruises and it hurt terribly when he moved.

Chop Suey Miao Cheng Fang, Chop Sui Meng Shaoyuan!

I will never be a spy again in my next life.

Only Master Qi has always tortured people, but look at Master Qi now?

He suddenly began to think of Hua'er...ah, and Lin Xuan.

He kept recalling their appearance in his mind.

Only in this way can his physical pain be alleviated.

Kawamoto Kojiro found nothing with him, and that old bitch Miao Chengfang didn't even show up to save him until now.

Tian Qi suspected that Miao Chengfang did this on purpose, deliberately abandoning himself and causing himself to suffer.

Just wait, as long as Master Qi can survive, this account must be settled with you.

The door opened.

Three people walked in.

Kojiro Kawamoto, Nitsugi Matsumoto, and:

Miao Cheng Fang!

Miao Chengfang glanced at Tian Qi, who was covered in injuries, as if nothing had happened.

"Kawamoto-kun, did the interrogation reveal anything?" Matsumoto Nitsugi's face was expressionless.

"Matsumoto-dono, no." In this kind of matter, Kawamoto Kojiro did not dare to hide anything: "I have tried many methods, but I have not found anything particularly valuable."

"Then it proves that there is nothing wrong with him and we can let him go, right?"

"Your Excellency Matsumoto, I suggest you keep him here for a while." Kawamoto Kojiro said cautiously: "During the interrogation, he will appear in a trance, and many of his answers will be incoherent..."

He immediately saw the dissatisfied expression on Matsumoto Nitsugi's face.

It is difficult to explain clearly to them myself.

During the interrogation period, he repeatedly tried to capture Tian Qi's behavior when he was lying, but failed every time. When Tian Qi should tell the truth, he always told some inexplicable lies, leaving him unable to do anything.

distinguish.

And this only increased his suspicion.

What Kojiro Kawamoto can confirm is that Meng Shaoyuan is a master of psychology, whose level is far above his own, and Tian Qi is Meng Shaoyuan's right-hand man.

Did Meng Shaoyuan provide him with special training to deal with today's situation?

A person who can answer the simplest questions incorrectly, such as when he joined Lixingshe and where he is from, is obviously targeted.

"I agree with Mr. Kawamoto." Miao Chengfang actually said: "The suspicion on Tian Qi must be completely eliminated before he can safely let him serve the empire. I have no objection to continuing to interrogate Tian Qi for half a year or a year.

Opinion."

You old bitch.

Tian Qi heard his words clearly and cursed in his heart.

"Kawamoto-kun." Matsumoto Nitsugi said coldly: "I appreciate your serious and responsible attitude, and you can continue to investigate Tian Qi. However, since Chimu Akagi died, we can be sure that it was the military commander, and even,

It is determined that Meng Shaoyuan ordered the assassination of Lord Chimu. The situation is very urgent and we must come up with a response plan as soon as possible."

Having said this, he pointed at Tian Qi who was lying on the ground: "This person was once Meng Shaoyuan's subordinate. He is very familiar with Meng Shaoyuan. No matter what suspicions he has on him, I need to use him to deal with Meng Shaoyuan. So, I

He needs to be put into work immediately to serve the empire. As for your investigation, you can still continue."

Matsumoto Nitsugi is his immediate superior, and if he openly disobeys orders, he will be passive in his future work.

Moreover, if we continue to torture like this, there will be no particularly satisfactory results. It is better to secretly observe and investigate Tian Qi in the future.

So Kawamoto Kojiro immediately said: "Yes, Mr. Matsumoto, I will release Tian Qi immediately."

"Find him a doctor." Matsumoto Hitoshi came to squat in front of Tian Qi, with a smile on his face and said in fairly fluent Chinese: "Mr. Tian, ​​you have suffered."

"I want to go back to Meng Shaoyuan." Tian Qi gasped: "If I had known how hard it was to be a traitor, I wouldn't even want to kill me."

"Ah, no, you are not a traitor, you are my friend, a friend of the Japanese Empire, Mr. Tian."

…

Cheng Yiming, secretary of the Shanghai latent zone of the Military Command, opened the door and walked in.

It was very different from the Secretary Cheng that Meng Shaoyuan saw when he first arrived in Shanghai. At this time, Cheng Yiming was dark and thin. He had been directing battles on the front line for a long time, which made his face not look good.

"Secretary Cheng, please take a seat." Meng Shaoyuan poured tea for him: "Secretary Cheng is here very rarely. Why do you look so bad? I heard that during the Anti-Japanese War in Shanghai, you were always directing from the front. Why do you have to work so hard?

Woolen cloth?"

"Aren't you always on the front line?" Cheng Yiming smiled, and then sighed: "I am different from you. All of you are upright and young, and are either old people from Director Dai or from Huangpu. I am different.

, I used to be from there, and I surrendered here, but if I don’t work hard, I won’t be immune to the criticism.”

Meng Shaoyuan didn't ask much: "Secretary Cheng is here today. What instructions does he have?"

"How dare I instruct you? You are now the most popular person in front of Director Dai." Cheng Yiming put down the cup: "Director Dai asked me to come."

Did Dai Li ask you to come?

"Dog ears."

As soon as the words Cheng Yiming came out, Meng Shaoyuan suddenly realized.

The emotional person knows the situation of "dog ears".

Is Cheng Yiming responsible?

"Don't blame me for not knowing." Cheng Yiming said slowly: "You and District Chief Zhou are mainly responsible for fighting the enemy, and I am mainly responsible for political work. I am mainly responsible for the 'dog ear'. Of course,

The Japanese call him "Dog Ears", and we gave him the code name "Butterfly". To talk about this, we have to start many years ago.

For a period of time, we fully learned from Japan. The army hired many Japanese instructors. Not only that, a large number of Japanese entered China. Some came to do business. Some came to be spies.

What about others? They really come to exchange and learn from China. Some Japanese are hostile to China, but there are also some who are close to China.
To be continued...
