Chapter 1521 Young Master Duren’s Examination (please give me your monthly ticket)
"Commander, Chief Tsuchida needs to see you for something." The guard's voice came from outside.
Junichiro Ikeuchi winked at Kawada Atsuhito, who stepped forward and opened the office door.
Minetaro Tsuchida came in. He saw Atsushi Kawada and nodded slightly to the noble young master.
"Kawada, please go out." Junichiro Ikeuchi said.
"Hai!" Kawada Atsuhito said.
Then he saluted Junichiro Ikeuchi, turned around and left, closing the door behind him.
…
"Your Excellency, Commander." Minetaro Tsuchida saluted Junichiro Ikeuchi and reported, "Hiroyuki Kubota, Ryotaro Ishizaka and others are under control."
"What did Hiromi Kubota say?" Junichiro Ikeuchi asked.
"Kubota only admitted that he ordered the seizure of Cheng Qianfan's goods out of revenge." Minetaro Tsuchida said, "As for how to deal with these goods, Kubota Hiromi has no further plans."
He told Junichiro Ikeuchi, "Kubota Hiromi's plan is to use this batch of goods as a threat to force Cheng Qianfan to come and beg for mercy. If what he said is true, it is not in his interest for the goods to be burned."
"Do you believe what Hiromi Kubota said?" Junichiro Ikeuchi asked.
"Based on my subordinate's understanding of Kubota Hiromi, Kubota may be more utilitarian. In fact, news has spread that my subordinate will be transferred to Manchuria. Kubota Hiromi has been seeking meritorious service in order to become my successor." Tsuchida.
Minetaro thought about it and said, "Based on my subordinates' understanding of Kubota, he could even murder his colleagues for promotion. However, the possibility that he would participate in setting fire to the warehouse for money is very low."
"You are honest." Junichiro Ikeuchi glanced at Minetaro Tsuchida.
"This is better than Kubota being involved in the fire case." Tsuchida Minetaro said with a wry smile, "My subordinate is the commander of Kubota Hiromi. If he made any mistakes, he would be dealt with according to military law. However, they did not make any mistakes.
We can't just watch them being wrongly blamed."
"Very good, Tsuchida, you did not disappoint me." Junichiro Ikeuchi nodded with satisfaction.
Tsuchida Minetaro thought that Kubota Hiromi had no problem, which made him quite relieved, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Kubota Hiromi was also involved in the case, then the problem would become even bigger:
Hiromi Kubota is the chief of the second section of the security room, and Jichiro Kamiai, who committed suicide, is the captain of the second brigade of the security room.
If a Lieutenant Colonel in charge of security work and a Major in charge of security work colluded, just thinking about the possible problems behind this would be enough to make Junichiro Ikeuchi shudder.
Not to mention, Jichiro Kamiai's 'suicide' itself made Junichiro Ikeuchi highly vigilant.
"Tsuchida." Junichiro Ikeuchi looked at Minetaro Tsuchida with a solemn expression, "You are my most trusted subordinate. This matter is very difficult. I need you to help me eliminate possible problems within the military police before going to Manchuria.
"
"Commander, Tsuchida will never look back when he points his sword at you." Minetaro Tsuchida said excitedly.
"Very good, very good." Ikeuchi Junichiro laughed happily. He patted Tsuchida Minetaro hard on the shoulder, "My Tsuchida hound, I can rest assured that you are here."
…
Shortly after Tsuchida Minetaro left, Onodera Shogo, the chief of the first section of the intelligence room, knocked on the door and came in.
"I have ordered Kawada Atsuto to join you in Kiya's joint investigation team." Junichiro Ikeuchi said in a deep voice, "Do you know what your mission is?"
"Assist Chief Kitani to investigate the warehouse fire case and uncover the anti-Japanese elements who sneaked into the headquarters to cause sabotage, or uncover the rats within the headquarters," Onodera Shogo said.
Junichiro Ikeuchi shook his head gently.
He gave Onodera Shogo a meaningful look.
"I understand." Onodera Shogo suddenly felt blessed and said with a serious expression, "I will do my best to ensure Kawada-kun's safety and protect Kawada-kun from successfully investigating the case."
"Very good." Junichiro Ikeuchi nodded slightly and waved his hand.
"My subordinates retire." Onodera Shogo saluted Junichiro Ikeuchi and turned to leave.
Junichiro Ikeuchi stood in front of the wall with his hands behind his hands. There was a map of Shanghai hanging on the wall. However, his eyes did not seem to stay on the map, but fell into deep thought.
A guard knocked on the door and came in, "Your Excellency, Commander, Atsushi Mizuguchi is here."
"Let him come in." Junichiro Ikeuchi said solemnly.
…
Onodera Shogo found Kawada Atsuhito in the senior officers' dormitory.
"Kawada-kun, what are you doing back in the dormitory at this time?" Onodera Shogo said with a wry smile, "I've been looking for him in the office building for a long time."
"I'm waiting." Kawada Atsuhito lit a cigarette, flipped the lighter to light it, took a puff, then threw the cigarette case on the table and gestured toward Onodera Shogo Nunu.
"What are you waiting for?" Onodera Shogo took a cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath.
"Waiting to see if Onodera-kun will come to see me." Kawada Atsuhito said with a smile.
"The Commander told me that Kawada-kun will also join the investigation team..." Onodera Shogo said.
"I'm still waiting for Onodera-kun. I want to hear what you would say if you came to see me." Kawada Atsuhito flicked the ash from his cigarette and said with a faint smile.
Onodera Shogo's eyes instantly became serious. He glanced at Kawada Atsuhito, and then suddenly smiled. He flicked the cigarette ashes, took another puff of cigarette, and nodded, "It seems that I didn't make Kawada Atsuhito."
The young master is disappointed."
Kawada Atsuhito took a deep look at Onodera Shogo and smiled, "Because Onodera-kun is a smart person, and smart people never make mistakes in multiple-choice questions."
…
"Your Excellency, the Commander, ordered me to protect Kawada-kun." Onodera Shogo said, "Protect Kawada-kun from being harmed during the investigation of the case."
Kawada Atsuhito chuckled, "Your Excellency, Commander, you do have great love for me."
Then he asked Onodera Shogo, "What do Onodera-kun think of this order from the Commander?"
Onodera Shogo did not answer immediately, he fell into deep thought.
There is nothing wrong with this order from Commander Junichiro Ikeuchi:
Major Ichiro Kamiai, captain of the Second Brigade of the Security Room, who was responsible for the fire in the warehouse, actually committed suicide in the detention room of the inspection room.
Although judging from the preliminary autopsy, Jichiro Kamiai is indeed consistent with the signs of committing suicide by hitting a wall out of fear of crime.
However, Onodera Shogo had a strong intuition that Jichiro Kamiai would never commit suicide out of fear of crime.
Although he was not familiar with Jichiro Kamai, he had met Jichiro Kamai when there was a fire in the warehouse that day. This officer was said to be from Orion. His behavior in the face of emergencies really impressed Onodera.
Changwu was disappointed.
In a word, Jichiro Kamiai is incompetent, let alone excellent, even a qualified imperial officer cannot be said to be competent.
If Jichiro Kamiai was a very good and capable officer, and after a fire broke out in the warehouse he was responsible for guarding and all the supplies were burned, he felt deeply guilty and committed suicide out of fear of the crime, he would think it was reasonable.
.
However, a guy with insufficient ability climbed to the position of captain of the second brigade of the guard room and became a major. In addition to his lack of military ability, such a person naturally has strengths in other aspects. Such a person will be temporarily dismissed because of his lack of ability.
He was ashamed and uneasy when he was detained, and chose to die to apologize to the empire and His Majesty the Emperor. Onodera Shogo absolutely did not believe it.
And since Jichiro Kamai can commit suicide out of fear of crime.
Then, Atsuto Kawada, who participated in the investigation of the fire case, may naturally be in danger.
As the son of the Kawada family, the importance of Atsuto Kawada's safety is undoubted. To some extent, compared to Atsuto Kawada's safety, it is not important whether a 'small' warehouse fire case can be thoroughly investigated.
.
Therefore, Commander Ikeuchi said that to him and ordered him to protect Kawada Atsushi. This seems to be very common sense and not inappropriate.
However, Onodera Shogo knew that since Master Atsuhito asked this question, it must not be without purpose, which meant that the commander's words were by no means as ordinary as they seemed.
There must be a meaning that he cannot investigate for the time being.
…
Kawada Atsuto did not urge him. He crossed his legs and smoked a cigarette slowly. His eyes were fixed on the winding decorations in the vase, with admiration and affection in his eyes.
Onodera Shogo frowned and thought. He thought about it and didn't think there was anything wrong with Junichiro Ikeuchi's words.
Suddenly, his heart moved.
The Commander ordered him to protect the safety of Atsuhito Kawada because of the importance of Master Atsuhito. Compared with the safety of Master Atsuhito in the warehouse fire case, the safety of Atsuto Kawada was naturally more important.
This created a contradictory situation. Since you were worried about Kawada Atsuhito's safety, why did you arrange for Mr. Atsuhito to join the investigation team?
Is this to arrange for Young Master Duren to join the investigation team and share the credit?
This is a gesture of goodwill to the Kawada family.
At the same time, he was worried about the danger that Kawada Atsushi might face. Although the possibility of the other party attacking a nominal noble young master was extremely low, he still had to guard against it.
As for the inside story of Shogo Onodera being transferred from Qingdao to Shanghai, no one else knew it. How could Junichiro Ikeuchi, the commander of the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters, not know it.
Obviously, it is most appropriate for him, who has the background mark of the Kawada family engraved on his body, to be assigned to protect Kawada Atsuto.
Onodera Shogo took a puff of his cigarette, it must be.
Your Excellency the Commander's intention should be to allow Atsuto Kawada to easily share the credit while ensuring Kawada Atsuto's safety.
"Commander, you are now confident about solving the warehouse fire case. Commander, you should have important evidence." Onodera Shogo said to Kawada Atsushi, "Kawada-kun, with your ability, you will definitely solve this case."
came to the fore during the investigation."
Kawada Atsuhito was slightly stunned, then he glanced at Onodera Shogo and said with a smile, "The credit belongs to everyone, I just did something within my ability."
With that said, he said to Onodera Shogo, "Your Excellency, the Commander, asked me to meet Miyazaki-kun. You can go to Cheng Mansion with me to visit tomorrow."
"Hai."
In the office of the Commander of the Gendarmerie.
Ikeuchi Junichiro looked serious and said to Mizuguchi Atsushi, "Mizuguchi, keep an eye on Tsuchida Minetaro!"
"Hai!"
…
The next day.
Song Fuguo hung up the phone, looked around alertly, then pressed his hat, held up his umbrella, and quickly left the telegraph hall.
Song Fuguo liked the sudden spring rain last night. All the pedestrians on the street held up umbrellas, which made it easier for him to hide himself among the crowd.
Dai Ji held an umbrella and hung it behind Commander Song from a distance.
The two of them returned to Shuanglongfang Apartment one after another.
"My boss, no one is following you." Dai Ji reported to Song Fuguo.
Song Fuguo nodded.
He always acted with extreme caution. He walked to the window sill naturally, pretended to stretch, and then looked at the rain outside the window. He naturally looked outside and found nothing unusual, so he felt relieved.
Turning his head to see Dai Ji's surprised look, Song Fuguo smiled and said, "Sometimes, the more natural we are, the less likely we are to arouse suspicion."
Dai Ji nodded. He understood what Chief Song said, but he couldn't do it. He would only sneak to the window sill and carefully stick his head out to look outside, so that he would feel safe.
Song Fuguo pulled out the box from under the bed, opened it, and took out the short gun.
This was a gun that Dai Ji got back from going out the night before. Song Fuguo was very cautious. He dismantled the gun, inspected it carefully, and then assembled it again to confirm that there were no problems with all parts, including the firing pin.
"Has the body been disposed of?" Song Fuguo asked Dai Ji casually.
"It's all done, the two bastards were thrown into the septic tank," Dai Ji said.
Song Fuguo nodded. Throwing the body into the septic tank is not the most perfect way to deal with it. After all, the body in the septic tank will be discovered sooner or later. However, this is not a perfect criminal case. Even if the body is found,
, and some days, they have already moved.
"Let's go." Song Fuguo opened the safety of the short gun and put it into his briefcase.
Dai Ji packed his suitcase and followed Song Fuguo with the suitcase, pretending to be his employer's follower.
…
Although it is a rainy day, the incense in Longhua Temple is still very strong.
The country is broken, the livelihood is difficult, and more and more people come to pray to God and worship Buddha.
The Japanese were raging fiercely, and people who could not see any hope of victory placed more of their hopes on the illusory gods.
Song Fuguo wore a halberd, pretended to be an ordinary pilgrim, offered incense respectfully, and spent fifty cents on two bowls of vegetarian noodles.
"Concentrate on eating noodles." Song Fuguo glanced at Dai Ji.
"Master, there are so many people here." Dai Ji said softly. He actually disagreed with the fact that Chief Song chose to meet people here. He felt that the meeting should be in a secluded place, which can avoid people's eyes and ears, and at the same time
It also makes it easier to detect dangers in time.
"Da Yin is hiding in the city." Song Fuguo said, "Eating noodles."
Dai Ji didn't quite agree with the idea of "hidden in the city", but the commander insisted, so he had no choice but to obey. While eating the noodles, he watched the surroundings vigilantly.
