Chapter 114 News about Kentaro Miyazaki (please ask for the moon)
The morning in Yandeli was as busy as ever.
Aunt Ma is cursing again.
A salted fish she hung on the window sill was stolen.
Aunt Ma was so distressed that the scolding didn't stop from morning to mid-morning.
Cheng Qianfan, carrying his suitcase, appeared at the entrance of the alley, and heard Aunt Ma's scolding from a distance.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This kind of Yandli, the familiar Yandli, brought him the warmth of home.
He did not bring Haozi directly to Yandeli's residence, but arranged Haozi in a safe house on Xiafei Road.
Gave him some money.
He told Hao Zi not to go out casually, and then returned to Yandli's residence alone.
"Brother Fan is back."
"Where has Brother Fan been these days?"
"Brother Fan, take care of Aunt Ma."
Cheng Qianfan smiled and greeted the neighbors.
"Brother Fan, it's amazing, there is a big thief in Yandeli." Aunt Ma saw Cheng Qianfan, grabbed her, and burst into tears accusing the thief of stealing salted fish.
Cheng Qianfan comforted Aunt Ma and said that she would definitely help solve this major theft case, and then Aunt Ma gave up.
…
Take out the key, open the door, and enter the home.
There is no musty smell in the air that comes from a house that has been left empty for a long time.
The house is clean and there is no dust.
Cheng Qianfan knew that it was Li Hao who often came to help clean and ventilate.
A subtle sound came from the second floor.
Cheng Qianfan frowned, put down his suitcase, took out a Browning gun from his body, and with a serious expression, he quietly went upstairs.
Meow.
The cat meowed and jumped into his arms.
Cheng Qianfan did not relax his vigilance and checked carefully before confirming that the noise was caused by this little thing.
"You little guy." Cheng Qianfan put away the Browning gun, sat on the edge of the bed, hugged the cat and played with it.
Meow~woo.
The cat squinted its eyes in enjoyment and meowed comfortably.
Then, Cheng Qianfan caught a glimpse of the leftover half-salted salted fish in the cat bowl on the window sill.
"It turns out that the big thief in Yandeli is you." Cheng Qianfan couldn't laugh or cry.
After petting the cat, Cheng Qianfan opened the suitcase and started packing.
When I opened the drawer, I saw a few letters in the drawer.
Cheng Qianfan picked it up and looked at it.
There are two letters sent by classmates from Meixi Primary School.
These were his two better playmates when he was a child.
One of them is now working in a foreign bank in Nanjing.
One returned to his hometown in Suzhou next door and inherited his family's medicine shop.
Cheng Qianfan opened the letter. There was nothing important. The two classmates gave him the usual greetings, talked about the recent situation, and invited him to visit Nanjing or Suzhou.
There are also two letters, one is a letter of greetings from East Asia Douwen College.
Cheng Qianfan had to admire the Japanese's meticulousness and attentiveness. He had been away from East Asia Tongwen College for some time, and the Japanese school still sent letters of greetings every once in a while.
The words are sincere, ask about the current situation, if there are any difficulties that the school needs help with, and invite you to go back to your 'alma mater' when you have time.
…
this letter?
Cheng Qianfan was slightly shocked when he saw the handwriting of the last letter. It was Tai Imai's handwriting.
He immediately looked at the postmark and saw that it was indeed sent from Manchukuo.
It turned out to be a letter sent by Imai Tai from Manchuria?
Didn’t Yu Pingan say that Imai Tai had been assassinated and executed by his Manchurian colleagues from the Secret Service?
Cheng Qianfan did not doubt that what Yu Ping'an said was false. Dai Chunfeng personally issued the assassination order. The Secret Service did not dare to perfunctoryly say that it was an execution, which should be correct.
So this letter should have been sent before Imai Tai died.
At first, Cheng Qianfan didn't pay much attention to it. Imai would send him a letter in about half a year.
He talked about his life and work in Manchukuo, and expressed his nostalgia for his student career at East Asia Tongwen College and his friendship with Cheng Qianfan as a classmate.
However, when he opened the envelope and read the contents of the letter, his expression suddenly became solemn.
…
"Mr. Cheng, I have been in a bad mood recently. Anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese elements are very rampant, which disturbs me very much."
"The day before yesterday, I personally punished an anti-Manchurian. This person was extremely stubborn and his words were extremely disrespectful to the empire. Unfortunately, I was unable to change this person and had to execute him and his family with my own hands."
"I often think about how great it would be if these people were as friendly to the empire as Mr. Cheng."
"Tell me some good news. I believe you will be as excited as I am when you hear the news."
"I have news about Miyazaki-kun. I received a letter from Miyazaki-kun in Manchuria a few months ago, and I found out that he had come to China a year ago."
"I really envy Miyazaki-kun's life. He is employed by Kobe University. His job all day long is to travel around China and record some local customs. This is the life I yearn for. I think Cheng Jun thinks so too.
Bar."
"Miyazaki-kun has been in a bad mood recently. He met and fell in love with a Chinese girl during his travels. Unfortunately, this girl was very hostile to the empire and even participated in anti-Japanese activities."
"Miyazaki-kun was extremely loyal to the empire. He actually completed the action of killing the girl and her family alone. It really impressed me. Of course, this incident made Miyazaki-kun a little sad."
"I learned from Miyazaki-kun's letter that he will go to Shanghai in the near future. This guy who was hurt by love is probably still recovering from his injuries."
"However, I am very happy. You have always been curious about Miyazaki-kun. This time you meet, imagine this scene, I am looking forward to it."
"I didn't mention you in my reply to Miyazaki-kun. This was intentional. I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I thought of the possible surprise on Miyazaki-kun's door when someone with a similar look suddenly knocked on his door.
Come."
"I have written to Mr. Miyazaki and arranged for him my previous residence in Shanghai, which is the house in Hongkou District, as you know."
"Mr. Cheng, according to Miyazaki-kun's letter, he will arrive in Shanghai in mid-May. I believe that you two will be very compatible. I think that when Mr. Cheng and Mr. Miyazaki were drinking and talking happily, I was the only one missing.
It’s a pity.”
Cheng Qianfan put down the letter.
He was surprised and pleasantly surprised.
Unexpectedly, Kentaro Miyazaki is actually in China, and he came to China a year ago.
Now it is coming to Shanghai soon.
In addition, according to Imai Taishin, Miyazaki Kentaro was hired by Kobe University to travel around the land of China, observing and recording the local customs.
This is uncannily similar to the "wandering poet" that Cheng Qianfan used to call himself Kentaro Miyazaki.
This is an excuse for the Japanese to collect intelligence for legitimate reasons in China.
It's called traveling, but it's actually an open act of espionage.
Cheng Qianfan picked up the letter again, and his eyes stayed on what Imai told about Kentaro Miyazaki's murder of a Chinese girl and her family.
Cheng Qianfan was angry and confused inside.
According to what Imai Tai said before, Kentaro Miyazaki is a rather introverted, kind and quiet young man.
Such a Japanese young man, when he came to China, quickly evolved into a murderous demon serving Japan's war of aggression against China.
In mid-May, the "long-famous" Mr. Kentaro Miyazaki will come to Shanghai:
