Nagatomo Akio looked at his student, Miyazaki Kentaro's eyes showed excitement, embarrassment, and of course, a bit of respect.
This made him feel a little emotional, reminding him of his short career as an instructor at Kobe University.
Sanbonjiro showed a puzzled expression and looked at Nagatomo Akio.
"Nagatomo-kun?"
Cheng Qianfan's heart tightened, 'Mr. Changyou'?
Did you make a wrong bet?
Cheng Qianfan sighed in his heart, after all, he still had not survived this life-and-death disaster.
He was prepared to die calmly.
However, when he raised his head and looked at this 'Nagatomo-kun', he did not see any warning or doubt in 'Nagatomo-kun''s expression. The man seemed to be sighing and reminiscing.
This is?
This discovery caused Cheng Qianfan to temporarily suspend his plan to commit suicide.
"Miyazaki, I haven't seen you for many years, and you have grown into a pillar of the empire. Sanben-kun has praised you a lot." Nagatomo Cunnan nodded slightly, "Very good!"
Then he looked at Mimoto Jiro, "When I was an instructor at Kobe University, I didn't use my real name. I used the identity of my friend Makino Shimoro."
"That's it." Sanbonjiro nodded.
"At that time, because I showed a very friendly attitude towards the Chinese students at Kobe University, many students were dissatisfied. Kentaro Miyazaki even called me 'Makino Genkuro' in private..." Nagatomo snorted coldly and looked at
Kentaro Miyazaki, "Because of this incident, this guy was punished by the school."
"Miyazaki didn't know the teacher's intention back then and was reckless. I sincerely apologize to the teacher." Cheng Qianfan showed a hint of embarrassment and said quickly.
"Hahaha, the school is right about the punishment." Sanbonjiro laughed loudly. He looked at Miyazaki Kentaro, "Why Makino Genkuro?"
…
Why Makino Genkuro?
Cheng Qianfan smiled sarcastically, said nothing, then lowered his head and looked at the floor.
Although he had successfully connected many clues in his mind at this time and had some speculations about the inside story, this was after all an old secret between Kentaro Miyazaki and Genkuro Makino.
', If his guess is wrong, it will be troublesome.
In this case, it is better to be still than to move. Obviously, it was Kentaro Miyazaki who was disrespectful to the teacher that day. This was Kentaro Miyazaki's "embarrassment". Out of respect for "Makino-sensei" in front of him, he chose not to speak.
There is nothing suspicious about this.
"I was an instructor at Kobe University at the time. Because of my father, I was very fond of medicine. Sometimes I would go to the school medical office part-time to help. There were some Chinese students in the school who would go to see a doctor. I would pay special attention to and take care of these Chinese people.
." Changyou Cunnan said.
The trainees assigned by the Meicun Training Center this time are mainly allocated to the Shanghai Japanese Special Agents and the Hangzhou Special Agents.
Naturally, both sides want to get more, one wants more and the other wants less.
"How can the importance of Hangzhou be comparable to that of Shanghai?" Sanbonjiro said with a haughty expression, and then showed a questioning expression, "I heard that Muranshitaro is the best among the trainees this time."
"Sanbon-kun came prepared." Nagatomo Ino laughed loudly and nodded, "Yes, Murashitaro is indeed the leader among this group of students, but..."
"But what?" Sanbonjiro asked.
"Sanbon-kun may not know yet, but as far as I know, Murashitaro is the person Okada-kun requested by name." Nagatomo Akio shook his head and said.
"Then I have to contact Colonel Watanabe as soon as possible." Sanbonjiro laughed.
…
Over the past few days, he has frequently shown goodwill to the other party, and the result of today's discussion was quite satisfactory to him.
Nagatomo Sugao secretly came to Shanghai this time mainly because he was entrusted by Kenji Doihara to recruit Fu Xiaoyu and establish the Shanghai Special Municipal Government.
Nagatomo Atsuo is the beloved general of His Excellency Kenji Doihara. This status alone makes this person worthy of his deliberate friendship.
In addition, he had already known in advance that Nagatomo Atsuo had secretly gone to Wuxi Meicun Training Center to serve as a consultant, and he was just pretending not to know.
This deliberate friendship was also for the purpose of using Nagatomo Akio to get in touch with Colonel Watanabe Mukaya of Umemura Training Center to obtain more trainee quotas.
The empire usually selects spies for training among recruits below the rank of junior sergeant.
During the three-month training period for new recruits, officers begin to examine and screen them, usually focusing on three types of candidates:
One type is the 'model soldier', who is deeply educated in the empire's 'bacterial nationalism', is loyal and reliable, and can speak Chinese.
The second type is the children of businessmen in China who have deep connections with the Japanese military; including some children of Chinese businessmen who secretly cooperate with the empire.
These two types of people will participate more proactively.
The third type is those with bad conduct and criminal records.
These people agree to engage in espionage activities, and after meritorious service, their disciplinary violations will receive special pardons.
Those who are "qualified" as spies are gathered in specialized training centers at brigade or division headquarters, where they are trained by various scientific and technical instructors and experts on China issues.
In the training center, trainees do not use their real names but only use numbers. Generally, one training period lasts for three months. The training process is strict and intense, and is divided into three categories: spiritual training, political training, and technical training.
The first two weeks are for spiritual lectures and political training, and from the third week onwards, the focus is on spy skills training.
The military department secretly opened a new training center in Meicun, Wuxi, with nearly a hundred trainees, to support spy activities in Zhejiang and Shanghai.
Naturally, Sanbonjiro wanted to get more of the pie.
…
Now that Nagatomo Akio agreed to help establish a connection with Watanabe Mukaya, Mimotojiro's goal was achieved, and he was cautious and did not talk about the Wuxi training center again.
The two talked about the ongoing Battle of Xuzhou.
"General Ito is invincible, and China general Han Yanghe's troops were defeated in one blow." Nagatomo Cunnan sneered, "These China generals are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they have been frightened by the empire."
Just at the end of last month, 5 infantry brigades and 1 field artillery brigade of Sato Brigade of Ito Masaki's 101st Division set out from Dongtai, captured Yancheng at the end of the month, and are now storming Funing.
Han Yanghe's 24th Group Army had five times the strength of the Japanese army, but it collapsed at the first touch and retreated to Dongkan. In this way, the back of the National Army Tang Group was seriously threatened.
Cheng Qianfan listened carefully. What Sanben and Nagatomo talked about were basically battlefield information that had already happened. The two of them mostly focused on reviewing the situation and did not talk about too many secrets.
I just don’t know if this is because the two of them simply like to review the war, or if they are out of caution.
Cheng Qianfan speculated that the latter was more likely.
He showed a bit of tiredness and even yawned secretly.
Sanbonjiro glared at him.
Cheng Qianfan quickly cheered up.
Changyou Cunnan smiled and said nothing.
The two discussed boring military information, battle reports, and tactical reviews. Miyazaki Kentaro didn't understand much, so he naturally had no interest.
…
Wuhan.
Temporary headquarters of Lixingshe Secret Service.
When the always steady Qi Wu translated this urgent telegram from Shanghai, his face was pale and sweat dripped from his forehead.
"Virgo." Pushing open the door of Dai Chunfeng's office, Qi Wu glanced at the other people in the office.
Dai Chunfeng understood and waved his hand.
Everyone left one after another.
"Virgin, this is an urgent telegram from the Shanghai Special Situation Team." Qi Wu handed over the secret telegram with both hands, "It's not a telegram from Cheng Qianfan, it's a telegram from 'Gray Rabbit'."
"Gray Rabbit" is Zhou Ru's codename, which was given to his subordinates by Xiao Mian, the leader of the Shanghai special situation team.
Dai Chunfeng received the message.
"Virgo, something may have happened to Cheng Qianfan," Qi Wu said.
"What?" Dai Chunfeng's expression changed and he hurriedly read the telegram.
‘Gray Rabbit’ made an urgent call to Wuhan and reported to the Secret Service Headquarters:
The big wax gourd entertains guests, accompanied by 'ants', and the guest is suspected to be a mysterious person.
…
"Miyazaki-kun, how is Professor Taniguchi's health now?" Nagatomo Akio asked casually as he looked at the scenery outside the car window.
"The teacher fell down on his leg the year before last. Although he recovered well after diagnosis and treatment, walking long distances will cause soreness and pain, so he rarely goes out of town now. He mostly spends time in Peiping and Tianjin." Cheng Qianfan replied.
.
Nagatomo Akio wanted to go back to his residence and asked Kentaro Miyazaki to accompany him.
"You don't run around anymore?" Changyou Cunnan raised his lips, "That's fine, I'm getting older, so it's better to be more honest."
"You don't have to feel embarrassed." Changyou Cunnan smiled slightly, "Your teacher and I don't like each other, and it's not like you don't know."
Cheng Qianfan smiled, he really didn't know.
"Teacher Changyou, are we going to the French Concession?" Cheng Qianfan asked, looking at the buildings outside the window.
"The police hospital on Trastevere Road in the French Concession." Nagatomo Akio looked at Kentaro Miyazaki and said, "I work there now."
"Teacher Nagatomo actually works in the police hospital?" Cheng Qianfan showed an extremely surprised expression, "I have been to the police hospital many times in the past few days, and I didn't even know anything about it." 1
…
Tarastro Road.
The second floor of a residential building opposite the police hospital.
Lu Fei, the team leader of the Shanghai Station Operations Brigade of the Secret Service, sat on a chair and smoked.
Snapped!
A small flying insect was killed with one slap.
Lu Fei couldn't help but curse, it was only May and there were so many small flying insects.
"Has Mao Kexin come back?" Lu Fei raised his head and asked his men who were observing. 4
