In the early morning on the beach, her busy schedule has already begun.
Through the car window and through the fine rain, Cheng Qianfan could see the people on the road.
The country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. For the people who fled to the French Concession, they lived a humble life in dire straits. However, life had to go on.
"These despicable Chinese people are like quails hiding in their nests." A sneer appeared on his lips, "They think they are safe if they hide in the concession. They really look forward to the day when the warriors of the empire march into the concession.
"
"Yes, this day will not be far away." Araki Harima nodded, "Miyazaki-kun, we are looking forward to that day together."
…
A smile bloomed on Cheng Qianfan's face.
What he just said was not a casual question.
He expressed his expectations as the Japanese Kentaro Miyazaki. Araki Harima's response was normal, which gave a signal:
Araki Harima did not doubt him at this moment.
That's good!
Ever since he got into Araki Harima's car, he had been mentally prepared to sacrifice.
Sanbonjiro has a distinguished guest and invites him to accompany him.
The signal implicit in this move is very clear. The distinguished guest is basically the mysterious doctor Mao Kexin from the police hospital.
In addition, it can also be concluded that, as he guessed, the doctor knew him, otherwise Sanbonjiro's distinguished guest would not have suddenly invited him, a subordinate, to accompany him.
Therefore, at this time, Cheng Qianfan knew in his heart that the moment he saw 'Mao Ke Xin', it was very likely that his identity would be exposed and he would be sacrificed.
He is ready.
The two conversations between him and Araki Harima just now seemed casual, but they can prove that Araki Harima has not doubted him at this moment, and they have only one purpose:
He wanted to confirm whether Ruolan and Xiaobao had the possibility of escaping.
The result satisfied him. Araki Harima did not doubt him at this time, so the Special High School Class would not attack Ruolan and Xiaobao in advance, which gave them sufficient time to evacuate.
…
Cheng Qianfan and Araki Harima were chatting casually, while his eyes would look out the window, at the people outside the window, and at the scenery outside the window.
Under his calm face, he looked at all this greedily in his heart, this was the land he was protecting.
The faces of Ruolan and Xiaobao appeared in my mind.
He feels that he is worthy of the party, the people, and the great motherland.
The only ones I'm sorry for are Ruolan and Xiaobao.
He may not be able to hold hands and grow old together.
He vowed to protect Xiaobao and see Xiaobao grow up healthily with his own eyes, but he might not be able to do that anymore.
…
Although I judged in my heart that the possibility of sacrifice on this trip was extremely high.
However, it is not his character to sit still and wait for death.
Cheng Qianfan now has three thoughts in his mind.
First, this trip was a near-death situation, and all he could do was seize the slim chance of survival as much as possible.
Judging from the current situation, the only way is to listen in and test whether the information about the distinguished guest can be obtained from Araki Harima's mouth in advance.
At the same time, we draw correct conclusions through our own careful analysis.
This may be his chance to survive this life-or-death calamity.
The conclusion is correct, student.
Wrong, die!
Maybe the chance is slim, but you have to fight for it anyway.
Secondly, if he really has to sacrifice, then when he leaves, he will try his best to seize the opportunity to kill Sanbonjiro or the doctor,
However, Cheng Qianfan knew deep down in his heart that once exposed in this situation, the first thing he would do was to end his own life.
If taking action against Sanben would affect his own suicide, he would have no choice but to give up and end his own life as his priority.
Third, he has to wait and wait for time to pass. If it is judged that Li Hao, Ruolan and Xiaobao have successfully evacuated, he can find a way to get off the car and escape midway.
…
Yendri.
Bai Ruolan washed the dishes and chopsticks and took off her apron.
"Xiaobao, stop playing, we should go to school." She shouted towards Xiaobao.
Xiaobao is playing with the cat. The cat is a little listless and doesn't want to talk to its little owner.
Xiaobao took out a fruit candy from his pocket, used the cat as a cover, quickly peeled off the candy wrapper, and stuffed the fruit candy into his mouth.
Bai Ruolan from the far side glanced, smiled and said nothing.
Bang bang bang.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Who?" Bai Ruolan asked.
"Sister-in-law, it's me, Haozi."
Bai Ruolan opened the door and saw Haozi standing at the door.
Then, her eyes stayed on the black umbrella in Haozi's hand.
Bai Ruolan felt inexplicably panicked.
"Why are you back? Where is your Brother Fan?" she asked.
"Brother Fan has something to deal with." Li Hao tried his best to keep his expression normal and forced a smile, "Sister-in-law, Brother Fan asked me to take you and Xiaobao to play with friends for a few days."
As he said that, he took a vigilant look at the situation in the alley, turned around and saw Bai Ruolan's worried face, and quickly explained, "I'm looking at the car. It's parked at the entrance of the alley."
"Do you want to pack your luggage?" Bai Ruolan asked, her voice trembling slightly.
"Brother Fan said that you can just carry the box in the study and bring some changes of clothes." Li Hao did not dare to look into his sister-in-law's eyes and tilted his head to one side as he said.
"Okay." Bai Ruolan nodded, turned around, and reached the stairs, staggering.
"Sister-in-law!" Li Hao said worriedly.
"I'm fine." Bai Ruolan didn't look back and walked on the wooden ladder with one hand. Her face was pale and her beautiful eyes were already shining with tears.
…
"Xiaobao, go and pack. Take anything important with you. We are going to stay with relatives for two days." Bai Ruolan's voice came from upstairs.
"I know." Xiaobao put down the cat and ran upstairs.
"Sister-in-law, hurry up." Li Hao couldn't help but urge.
"knew."
Li Hao's fists were clenched and he was leaning on the wall.
He couldn't wait to rush out now. He wanted to save Brother Fan. Even if he knew it might be a fatal situation, he could help Brother Fan block a few more shots.
However, he knew what Brother Fan was most worried about right now.
He vowed to protect his sister-in-law and Xiaobao even if he sacrificed his own life.
…
upstairs.
"Sister Ruolan, are we coming back?" Xiaobao asked.
"I don't know." Bai Ruolan had quietly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, smiled, and shook her head.
"Oh." Xiaobao nodded dully.
Soon, Bai Ruolan came down carrying a wooden box in each hand.
Li Hao quickly went up to pick it up.
"Xiaobao, where are your things?" Li Hao asked.
"Here it is." Xiaobao raised the thing in his hand.
Li Hao looked over and saw that Xiaobao was holding a scroll tied with a string.
He was a little confused, but he soon smiled with relief. He knew that Xiaobao liked to draw.
Bai Ruolan glanced at Xiaobao, her heart hurt like a knife. With a gentle smile on her face, she touched Xiaobao's head and said to Haozi, "Yes, this is my Xiaobao's most precious treasure.
.”
"Madam, I have to go out."
"Xiaobao, where are you going?"
When the neighbors saw this scene, they asked one after another.
"Qianfan's French friend invited us to stay for a few days." Bai Ruolan smiled slightly and greeted the neighbors.
After walking far away, I heard the sound of a cat meowing in my ears.
The cat came out of the window and followed me all the way, meowing on the roof.
"Cat, take good care of your house." Xiaobao waved his hand and shouted.
…
"parking."
Cheng Qianfan said suddenly.
The driver stepped on the brakes.
Araki Harima looked at him doubtfully, "Miyazaki-kun, what's wrong?"
"Shen Dacheng Pastry Shop is the best pastry shop in Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan pointed to the shop across the road and said, "The section chief is entertaining distinguished guests and asks me to accompany him. How can I go there empty-handed?"
This is the second trial and confirmation.
He was once again sure in his heart that Araki Harima did not suspect him, because when he called to stop, the driver stopped directly.
If Araki Harima had suspected him a long time ago, he would definitely have told the driver in advance. In this case, the driver's reaction at that time should have been to look at Araki Harima and ask if he wanted to stop the car.
Araki Harima suddenly understood. He ordered the driver, "Go and buy some cakes."
"I'll go in person." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "I didn't bring the section chief a gift he liked this time. I know the section chief's taste, and I bought some good pastries to show my sincerity."
Araki Harima smiled knowingly. He naturally understood what Kentaro Miyazaki said was the gift that the section chief liked, and nodded, "Miyazaki-kun is interested."
With that, he said to the driver, "Let's have a portion of all the pastry flavors."
"Yes!" the driver agreed, got out of the car and left.
Cheng Qianfan became wary again. Araki Harima insisted on asking the driver to buy it, which made him suspicious again. Araki Harima, who overturned his previous judgment, did not doubt his guess.
He glanced at Araki Harima, and out of the corner of his eye glanced at the agent sitting in the co-pilot. Whether it was due to professional habits or other reasons, this person always kept one hand on his abdomen, which could ensure that this person
Being able to draw a gun immediately.
In addition, the most important thing is that he knows the strength of Araki Harima sitting next to him. This person is the most respected operational commander of the Special High School Course by Mibonjiro. Both his grappling and fighting ability and his marksmanship are second to none in the Special High School Course.
.
This made Cheng Qianfan reluctantly give up the idea of a sudden breakout.
If there is no chance of escape and the only option is to die together, he would rather save the chance to fight until the end. His primary target is Sanbonjiro.
…
Seeing Cheng Qianfan's puzzled expression, Araki Harima explained, "The section chief attaches great importance to today's distinguished guests and bought some of various flavors."
Cheng Qianfan showed a stunned expression, and at the same time looked at Araki Harima with a look of surprise, "Araki-kun, what is the origin of this distinguished guest, and the section chief actually pays so much attention to it."
"I almost forgot that this distinguished guest is an old acquaintance of Miyazaki-kun." Araki Harima said with a smile, "Maybe you know the taste of this distinguished guest."
"Oh?" Cheng Qianfan showed a curious expression, "My old acquaintance? Who is he?"
As he spoke, he smiled and joked, "I can't remember for the moment that any of my old acquaintances has such a distinguished status that he troubled the section chief to pay so much attention to him."
"The identity of the distinguished guest is a secret. Of course, Miyazaki-kun is not an outsider. However, I don't know the specific identity of this distinguished guest." Araki Harima shook his head, "I just know that this person is an old acquaintance of Miyazaki-kun in China.
.”
Cheng Qianfan nodded, showing surprise, "He's actually from China."
"No." Araki Harima shook his head, "I just heard that your guest is an old acquaintance of Miyazaki-kun in China. He is not from China."
"That's it." Cheng Qianfan nodded.
…
At this time, the driver came back with a large bag of pastries, and the car started moving forward again. Araki Harima also took the initiative to change the topic.
Cheng Qianfan showed an expression of anticipation and excitement about meeting an old acquaintance, and chatted casually with Araki Harima.
But he was thinking quickly in his mind.
He couldn't be sure now whether Kentaro Miyazaki really didn't know or was unwilling to say more out of confidentiality.
At present, from these few words, the information Cheng Qianfan can capture is very limited. To be precise, there is only one piece of information:
This person is an old acquaintance of Kentaro Miyazaki in Japan.
This made Cheng Qianfan's heart sink into rock bottom.
In this way, it was difficult for him to guess who this person was. Most of his understanding of Kentaro Miyazaki came from his diary records.
Kentaro Miyazaki's thick diary was started after Miyazaki came to China.
He really lacked understanding of Kentaro Miyazaki's situation in Japan.
…
Lack of understanding!
A light flashed in Cheng Qianfan's mind.
Yes, I lack understanding of Kentaro Miyazaki’s subsequent situation in Japan, but I don’t know anything about it.
Imai Tai!
From Imai's words, he learned about some of Kentaro Miyazaki's affairs in Japan.
Cheng Qianfan's mind was racing. He was thinking quickly, thinking against the clock.
Soon, he shook his head in his mind.
Most of the things Imai mentioned about his "childhood friend" Kentaro Miyazaki when chatting with him were their experiences from childhood to adolescence.
The people involved are basically their neighbors, teachers from elementary school and middle school, relatives and friends.
There are too many people involved, making it difficult to pinpoint the target.
In addition, the most important thing is that these characters that I learned from Imai Tai a few years ago are basically still living in the hometown of Kentaro Miyazaki and Imai Tai:
Most of these people should still be living in Fukushima at this moment.
And even if someone leaves Fukushima and comes to China, it is impossible for these ordinary people to successfully occupy high-level positions in the Japanese military and government in just a few years.
The distinguished guests whom Jiro Sanbon entertained with great solemnity must have extraordinary status. People like Fukushima obviously did not meet the identity conditions of the target persons.
…
"What are Miyazaki-kun thinking about?" Araki Harima asked.
"Mr. Araki laughed." Cheng Qianfan smiled, "I am in a foreign country, and I can't wait to see my old friends in China. I have been wondering who my old acquaintance is."
"Hahaha." Araki Harima laughed loudly, "Miyazaki-kun will know it when you see it."
Cheng Qianfan cursed in his heart. He wanted to use these words to get some information out of Araki Harima, but Araki Harima just didn't take the bait.
Cheng Qianfan continued to think in his mind.
Those relatives and friends in Fukushima, Kentaro Miyazaki’s hometown, can basically be excluded.
So, the origin of this distinguished guest, our old acquaintance?
Cheng Qianfan then thought of Kentaro Miyazaki’s teacher Hiroyuki Taniguchi.
However, today's distinguished guest obviously cannot be Hiroyuki Taniguchi.
When he analyzed this mysterious doctor before, he had several reasons to support this judgment.
At this moment, the reason why he thought of Hiroyuki Taniguchi was very straightforward:
As a famous professor in Japan, Hiroyuki Taniguchi’s influence is not low, and he has a certain influence in Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
In addition, Hiroyuki Taniguchi had contacts with the Japanese military and secret services, and was well received and valued.
If Hiroyuki Taniguchi came to Shanghai, he would certainly be worthy of being treated like a distinguished guest by Sanbonjiro.
Getting closer and closer to the secret location of the Super High School, between life and death, Cheng Qianfan's brain speed is also approaching the limit.
Hiroyuki Taniguchi!
A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he got inspiration from Hiroyuki Taniguchi:
The identity and background of this mysterious guest may be similar to Hiroyuki Taniguchi. He is a "highly respected" professor? Or a scholar? An expert? He has many contacts with the Japanese military and Japanese special agencies.
Cheng Qianfan was thinking about how likely this was.
Miyazaki Kentaro 'joined' the Special Higher Education Course in Shanghai. He was not a professional agent before, and his main social circles were mostly in academic and cultural circles.
University!
Yes!
If this mysterious guest is an influential university professor, to be precise, could he be Kentaro Miyazaki’s teacher at university?
Kobe University.
Teacher at Kobe University?!
Cheng Qianfan thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was the greatest, or that this identity was the most consistent with his research and calculation conditions for this mysterious guest.
However, Kentaro Miyazaki met so many teachers while studying at Kobe University.
What's more, he knew very little about Miyazaki Kentaro's situation in college.
In such a hurry, there was no time to inquire about relevant information, let alone determine who this person was.
…
Be calm!
This man has relatively superb surgical skills!
This is a feature.
Cheng Qianfan racked his brains and thought——
Are there any relevant passages in Kentaro Miyazaki's diary?
Has Imai Tai mentioned anything about Kentaro Miyazaki’s time at Kobe University?
"Araki-kun, what has Wang Kangnian been busy with recently?" Cheng Qianfan handed Araki Harima a cigarette, lit a cigarette himself, and asked with a faint smile.
He cannot show any abnormality and must think while talking to Araki Harima.
At the same time, you should also be careful not to reveal your flaws due to distraction when talking to Araki Harima.
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan chose to control the topic as much as possible himself.
Among them, the topic about ‘enemy’ Wang Kangnian is obviously the safest.
"Miyazaki-kun really holds a grudge." Araki Harima laughed loudly and joked, "It is said that Wang Kangnian is very careful when going out now, for fear of running into you, Mr. Cheng."
"I have always believed that people like Wang Kangnian are not loyal to the empire." Cheng Qianfan snorted and said, "It seems that this guy rarely shows up recently."
"Wang Kangnian is now involved with Tong Xueyong, and the two seem to have a good relationship in private." Araki Harima said.
Wang Kangnian and Tong Xueyong got together?
Cheng Qianfan was surprised inside.
At this moment, the car turned a corner and entered a wide road.
A building with a courtyard less than a mile in front is the secret residence of the Super High School.1
