Chapter 1132: When the truth is false, the false is also true, and when the false is true, the true is also false
"I will arrange an investigation into this matter." Araki Harima said seriously.
"Be sure to keep it secret." Cheng Qianfan reminded, "Hiroyuki Kikube is a cunning guy."
"I will pay attention." Araki Harima nodded.
"Just now Mr. Araki said that Kikube had secretly interrogated Wang Kangnian." Cheng Qianfan picked up a small dried fish with chopsticks and took a bite. Finally, he simply put down the chopsticks and ate it directly with his hands. He bit the dried fish in his mouth and made a slightly loud sound.
Turbid, "How does this get involved with that guy Cao Yu?"
"As far as I know, Wang Kangnian recommended Cao Yu to Kikube." Araki Harima took a sip of wine and said, "Cao Yu was Wang Kangnian's former confidant, and he once infiltrated the Red Party. This person knows the Red Party very well.
.”
"However, there are also doubts about Cao Yu." Cheng Qianfan immediately frowned and said, looking at Araki Harima, "And the doubts about Cao Yu were discovered by you, Mr. Araki."
"So, looking at it now, it is very strange that Kikube Hirao secretly interrogated Wang Kangnian." Araki Harima said.
"Indeed." Cheng Qianfan nodded. He didn't say anything more. It was most appropriate to stop.
The two drank and talked for a while. Cheng Qianfan put down his wine glass and wiped his mouth, "I originally planned to meet the section chief..."
He shook his head, "However, seeing that Mr. Koike hurried over just now, I still don't want to join in the fun."
Araki Harima laughed.
He understood what Shizaki-kun meant.
The section chief summoned Koike urgently because he must have something to tell him. If there were any difficult matters or tasks to handle, if Kentaro Miyazaki went there so hastily, wouldn't he be "throwing himself into a trap"? If he didn't do it well, he would be arranged
task.
Cheng Qianfan flicked the ashes of his cigarette, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, stood up, patted his butt, and said goodbye to Araki Harima.
Araki Harima naturally got up, saw his friend off in person, went downstairs and left.
The door was closed, and the click of the lock cylinder sounded.
The door to the lounge in Araki Harima's office opened, and two people walked out.
…
Cheng Qianfan got into the car.
"Haozi, drive." He said to Haozi.
As the vehicle drove away, Cheng Qianfan let out a long sigh of relief, and then he closed the car curtain.
Araki Harima stood at the stairs on the first floor and watched his friend get into the car. The car drove out of the gate of the Special Higher Education Course and turned right.
He put the cigarette butt in his hand into his mouth, took a strong puff, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and turned back to his office.
"Section Chief, Your Excellency Lieutenant Colonel." Araki Harima saluted the two of them.
"Kentaro Miyazaki left?" Toshihiko Okada picked up a small dried fish with his hands, chewed it carefully, and asked.
"Yes, Miyazaki-kun left in a car." Araki Harima nodded.
Sanbonjiro sat down with a golden sword.
Araki Harima opened the door of his office, and someone immediately came over to remove the wine glasses, chopsticks and leftovers.
"Stay the dried fish," Toshihiko Okada said.
He likes this home-cooked dish very much.
Araki Harima waved his hand, and except for the remaining dried fish, everything else was removed. Soon, new snacks, wine cups, and chopsticks were placed again.
"Araki, do you really agree with what Miyazaki said, that Kikube is an accomplice of the traitor Seto Uchigawa?" Mimotojiro asked.
Okada Toshihiko also looked at Araki Harima, wanting to hear what Araki Harima would answer.
"There is a deep conflict between Miyazaki-kun and Kikube-kun." Araki Harima thought for a moment and said, "Section Chief, you just heard that Miyazaki-kun did not hide his hatred for Kikube-kun."
"Is it just hatred?" Sanbonjiro snorted coldly.
"To be precise, he has hatred in his heart and plans to do something." Araki Harima said, "Miyazaki-kun obviously doesn't know about the connection between Cao Yu and Kikube-kun, but he still directly insists that Kikube-kun is
The emperor ordered Cao Yu to monitor him, but of course, this is untrue."
"This is a frame-up." Toshihiko Okada said coldly, and Biaji spat out a fish bone.
Araki Harima glanced at Okada Toshihiko. He did not speak, but looked at Sanbonjiro.
Under the gaze of Sanbonjiro, Araki Harima continued, "As for Miyazaki-kun's report that Kikube-kun is an accomplice of Setouchi Gawa, if I think about it carefully, this should have been Miyazaki-kun's unintentional words at first.
"
After a pause, Araki Harima continued, "However, because the name Setouchi River is a mark of shame for my special high school, my subordinates scolded Miyazaki-kun and asked him not to say nonsense without evidence."
"So, Miyazaki felt that he had lost face." Mihonjiro glanced at Araki Harima, "In desperation, he thought of the name Mizutaniuchi Yuji, and then thought that Mizutaniuchi Yuji was from Yamaguchi Prefecture, Yamaguchi Prefecture
It is adjacent to Hiroshima Prefecture, and it is believed that Kikube knew Mizutaniuchi Yuji and concealed the matter."
"Yes." Araki Harima nodded, "However, my subordinates can see that Miyazaki-kun was just a desperate excuse at the beginning. He actually knows that this kind of evidence is actually not convincing."
"However, seeing that you agreed with his analysis and attached great importance to the issue he raised, Miyazaki followed suit and encouraged you to make a fuss about this matter and conduct a secret investigation into Kikube." Mimoto Jiro said.
"Yes, Section Chief, this is the situation." Araki Harima nodded.
He was also shaking his head in his mind, Miyazaki was really unlucky today.
When Miyazaki came to visit, the section chief and Colonel Okada Toshihiko were drinking in his office.
You came to Shanghai secretly, and try not to be seen by others.
What Araki Harima didn't expect was that Sanbonjiro did not leave with Okada Toshihiko, but went directly to the inner room with Okada Toshihiko to take shelter, and strictly ordered Araki Harima not to reveal his flaws.
…
"Okada-kun, you are an outsider." Mimoto Jiro looked at Okada Toshihiko, "How do you view this matter from an outsider's perspective?"
"Araki-kun." Okada Toshihiko looked at Araki Harima.
"Hai."
"Let me ask you, what Kentaro Miyazaki said, that based on the fact that Yuji Mizutaniuchi was from Yamaguchi Prefecture, he concluded that Hiroshi Kikube knew Yuji Mizutaniuchi and concealed it from the headquarters. How do you view this matter?
"Okada Toshihiko said.
His eyes were fixed on Araki Harima, "Don't hesitate to speak your truest thoughts."
"I..." Araki Harima said, "I did think this was Miyazaki-kun's desperate argument at first. However, when he said that Mizutani Yuji might be acquainted with Kikube-kun, I thought that there was a Mizutani Uchi.
Yuji is from Yamaguchi Prefecture, and Yamaguchi Prefecture and Hiroshima Prefecture are adjacent.”
"So, you immediately realize that Miyazaki Kentaro's statement is not completely unreasonable." Okada Toshihiko said, "Although Miyazaki Kentaro later frankly admitted that this was a reason for him to apply it mechanically, in fact he did not have Kikube
There is evidence that Kano knew Yuji Mizutaniuchi, but you have already begun to think about how likely that is."
He looked at Sanbonjiro and pointed at Araki Harima, "As I expected, Araki-kun should have a voice in his heart at that time. This voice is that you hope and expect that what Miyazaki said is true."
Araki Harima was stunned.
"Araki, answer me, is what Okada-kun said accurate?" Sanbonjiro looked at Araki Harima with a serious expression and asked in a deep voice.
"Yes." Araki Harima's face changed repeatedly, and finally he could only nod and admit. He bowed slightly to Sanbonjiro and apologized, "Section Chief, I shouldn't have been affected by personal grudges at work, so that I lost my impartial stance.
and rational judgment.”
Sanbonjiro snorted coldly. He naturally understood what Araki Harima meant by personal grudges:
Uncovering the traitor Wang Kangnian was a major achievement of Araki Harima, but Kikube insisted that Wang Kangnian was most likely framed.
This is the root of the feud between Kikube Hiroyuki and Araki Harima.
He glanced at Araki Harima with a gloomy look, obviously very dissatisfied with Araki Harima's behavior. However, Araki Harima was able to be honest with him, and Sanbonjiro was still satisfied with this in the end.
"Okada-kun, I am not strict with you, it's ridiculous." Sanbonjiro sighed and said to Okada Toshihiko.
"Kentaro Miyazaki is very interesting." Toshihiko Okada took a sip of wine, smiled slightly, and said.
"Okada-kun, do you mean there is something wrong with Miyazaki?" Sanbonjiro's face darkened and he asked immediately.
"No, no, no." Okada Toshihiko shook his head, "I didn't mean that."
He shook his head and said with a smile, "This Miyazaki is very cunning, quick-witted, and good at leading the conversation."
He looked at Araki Harima, "Araki-kun, when you sent Kentaro Miyazaki away, did you notice Miyazaki's expression..."
After a pause, he reminded, "It's as good as I expected. It should be that kind of happy expression."
"A happy expression?" Araki Harima looked thoughtful.
"Yes." Okada Toshihiko said, "What Kentaro Miyazaki said, in Chinese terms, is just fabrication to confuse the public."
He smiled and said, "This person actually just lost face at first, and then he talked randomly in a hurry. In the end, those words were just to cover up lies and try to get away with it."
He said to Sanbonjiro, "One lie requires many lies to help cover it up."
"But lies are just lies after all." Mibonjiro ate a piece of cucumber sprinkled with mustard and nodded, "Miyazaki obviously knew this, so he left in a hurry and was very lucky that he was not exposed in person."
Kentaro Miyazaki, this guy, always goes to see him every time he comes to the special high school class, but he didn't take the initiative to go there today. This is a manifestation of his guilty conscience, because Kentaro Miyazaki knows that his confusing lies cannot deceive wise people.
It's the section principal's, so I just left in despair.
Only then did Araki Harima understand what Okada Toshihiko meant by what he just said. He looked astonished and suddenly thought of something.
"What have you thought of?" Sanbonjiro asked.
"Miyazaki-kun got into the car, and I saw from the window that Miyazaki-kun let out a long sigh of relief." Araki Harima said, "This should be what you call 'lucky'."
Okada Toshihiko nodded slightly.
"Your Excellency." Araki Harima looked at Okada Toshihiko, "Why do you only think that Miyazaki-kun is cunning, but there is nothing wrong with him?"
He did not expect Miyazaki Kentaro to have questions. On the contrary, he asked this question because he cared about his friend and wanted to ask clearly.
"There is nothing wrong with Kentaro Miyazaki. What he did can be called quick-witted and cunning." Okada Toshihiko said, "If Kentaro Miyazaki is a spy, his words and actions can only be described as stupid."
."
Sanbonjiro nodded slightly. Okada Toshihiko was right. As long as that guy Miyazaki is not suspicious, this is an internal matter of the Special High School. Such sophistry and punching the old master to death can be regarded as illegal.
Quick wit.
On the other hand, if Kentaro Miyazaki is a spy, his words and actions are simply stupid. Either he thinks that the Special High School is a fool, or Kentaro Miyazaki himself is stupid.
Is Kentaro Miyazaki stupid?
of course not.
Therefore, Kentaro Miyazaki has no problem.
"Okada-kun, you are still that wise guy." Sanbonjiro said with a smile, "You can see everything at a glance."
Okada Toshihiko smiled slightly, feeling quite pleased with himself.
…
Araki Harima must have noticed the way he breathed a sigh of relief just now.
The car has already left the Super High Course for some distance.
You can hear the whistle on the Huangpu River.
Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette and thought.
In the courtyard of the Special Higher Education Course, he asked Haozi to drive away. When the car passed under the street lights in the courtyard, he let out a long sigh of relief at the right time.
There were other people in the lounge in Araki Harima's office. This was Cheng Qianfan's conclusion after just two glances after entering Araki Harima's office.
At first glance, he caught a glimpse of a small pool of inconspicuous water stains in the corner of the tatami.
When he sat down, he dipped his hand in it and sniffed it secretly. It was wine.
The most important thing is that there is no drink on the table, which means that Araki Harima has not had time to get the drink.
So, where did this spilled wine come from?
At the second glance, or to be precise, the first bite, he tasted the dried fish in the food and drink. This was indeed the dried fish sent by Araki Harima's family from the main island of Japan.
However, this small dried fish has another story.
This is a small dried fish he carefully selected:
Under the light, the color of dried small fish is slightly different from others.
He tasted it and found that there was a faint smell of alcohol on the dried fish. This was because the wine was sprinkled on the dried fish.
Moreover, he noticed that there were two small dried fishes on the plate near one side of the tatami.
All this shows that before he and Koike came, there was a drinking party in Araki Harima's office.
His sudden visit disturbed the wine shop.
The wine party ended hastily.
What kind of drinking party would end hastily because of his arrival?
Cheng Qianfan thought about it at that time.
As a friend of Araki Harima, he can be said to be a friend of Araki Harima, and he is qualified to serve at Araki Harima's drinking party.
Therefore, this hastily ended drinking party must be something strange.
Or it involves some secrets.
In other words, he is not suitable to participate in it.
If it's the latter, that's fine.
If it's the former, that's interesting.
Moreover, Cheng Qianfan guessed that among the participants of the wine party there must be the section chief Sanbonjiro.
The reason is also in the food.
It is normal to add vinegar to cucumbers.
Adding vinegar and wasabi to cucumbers is not unusual for Japanese people.
However, patting cucumbers with mustard, vinegar, and some peanut butter is a small hobby of Sanbonjiro, and it is even a quirk that Sanbonjiro himself did not notice.
Cheng Qianfan only once had a banquet with Sanbonjiro, and accidentally noticed that Sanbonjiro was jealous of cucumbers dipped in mustard and then dipped in peanut butter.
It was a rare occasion for Sanbonjiro to have a drink in Araki Harima's office. Cheng Qianfan secretly speculated that the most likely possibility was that Araki Harima entertained a guest in his office, and this guest had an extraordinary identity. Therefore, Sanbonjiro
After hearing the news, he deigned to come to his subordinate's office to have a drink.
As for why he judged that Sanbonjiro and the guest did not leave, but were 'hiding' in the intercostal lounge of Araki Harima's office, it came from another small detail he discovered.
