Chapter 359: Have a correct attitude (please vote for me)
Jingle bells.
The phone rang on the bedside table in the bedroom.
Cheng Qianfan suddenly woke up.
Then there was the cry of little Zhizhi in the next room, and the sound of the wet nurse coaxing the child.
"I'm going to see Xiao Zhizhi." Bai Ruolan got up and got out of bed.
"Put on your coat, it's cold." Cheng Qianfan shouted. When he saw Bai Ruolan put on her furry coat and left, he glanced at the still ringing phone and picked up the receiver, "I'm Cheng Qianfan."
"Boss Chi, it's so late..."
"you say."
"It's happening." Cheng Qianfan frowned, "Don't worry, Boss Chi. Cheng said he wants to keep your business safe, so he won't sit idly by if something happens."
"Okay, I will handle it myself later."
Putting down the phone, Cheng Qianfan took off his pajamas and began to change clothes.
When Bai Ruolan came back from the nanny's room, she saw her husband fully dressed, twirling his hat on his fingers, and thinking about something.
"Are you going out so late?" Bai Ruolan asked.
"A friend is in trouble over there and needs to be dealt with urgently," Cheng Qianfan said.
"When will you come back?" Bai Ruolan asked again.
"I can't say for sure." Cheng Qianfan said. Seeing the worried look in Bai Ruolan's eyes, he said calmly, "Something happened to Boss Huang. I have to go there."
After hearing this, Bai Ruolan's worried expression immediately dissipated, "Something happened? Is it serious?"
"It's not light." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "Okay, I'm going out, you should rest early."
"Be careful on the road." Bai Ruolan got into bed, looked at her husband who was about to go out, and suddenly said, "I want to eat Liu Ada's wontons."
"That's easy. I'll take it for you when I come back tomorrow." Cheng Qianfan smiled at his wife, closed the door and left.
He went directly to his study and pressed the bell on his desk.
"Prepare the car, I want to go out."
Afterwards, Cheng Qianfan opened the drawer, took out his Browning gun, carefully checked everything including the firing pin and the magazine, inserted the short gun into the cross-body holster, and then put on a windbreaker.
"Brother Fan." Li Hao came up with Hou Pingliang.
Hao Zi also moved and now lives nearby. However, during normal times, Li Hao sometimes lives in the Cheng Mansion, as if he is the housekeeper of the Cheng Mansion.
"Monkey, take the people out with me." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "Haozi stays behind."
"yes!"
"clear!"
The door of Cheng Mansion was pushed creakingly, and the car lights shined out, illuminating the road in front of the door.
Two cars drove out one after another. The license plates of the two cars were exactly the same. The curtains of the rear seats were also lowered, so that the outside world could not see clearly what was going on inside the car.
The car traveled all the way through Xiafei District and soon arrived near Yangjingbang.
"Brother Fan, we've reached the checkpoint." The driver said in a low voice.
The Japanese army set up checkpoints at the bridgehead to interrogate passing vehicles and pedestrians. Especially at night, the Japanese-occupied areas implemented stricter curfew management on some road sections. The Japanese army would not let them pass without a pass issued by the Japanese Military Police Headquarters.
"Passed." 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' raised his eyes and said.
"Yes!" Big Head flashed his light.
The police vehicle in front stopped, and a brother immediately got out of the vehicle and placed a flag on the flagpole in front of the vehicle.
This person did not return to the car, but pulled the edge of the car and stood on the side of the car, ready to communicate and negotiate with the Japanese soldiers at the checkpoint.
Unexpectedly, when they approached the checkpoint, the Japanese soldiers illuminated the license plate with a searchlight. When they saw the flag of Jiujiu Trading, they directly moved the barbed wire barrier and waved to let them go.
After passing the checkpoint, a vehicle parked on the roadside flashed its lights and then led the way.
"Follow up." Cheng Qianfan said.
The headlights flashed, and the vehicle on alert in front slowed down and pulled over. After Xiao Cheng's vehicle passed, the car immediately followed closely, and the vehicle on alert in front became on alert.
Cheng Qianfan looked at the vehicle leading the way with a cold expression.
The car in front was Xiaochi who had been waiting for him for a long time.
The call just now was from Koike. Koike told him bad news. Araki Harima was seriously injured, and the section chief informed him to come to the Special High School immediately to discuss important matters.
When something happened to his 'friend' suddenly, Cheng Qianfan was naturally in a bad mood.
His mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about this matter.
How did Araki Harima get injured suddenly?
Where was the injury sustained?
How is the injury?
In addition, Sanbonjiro suddenly summoned him urgently, what was his intention?
Sanbonjiro would not summon him urgently just because he and Araki were good friends and Araki was seriously injured. Public is public and private is private. Sanbonjiro could still distinguish clearly without involving the 'object in the cup'.
…
About Sanhuali away from the Super High School campus, Xiaochi's car stopped on the side of the road.
Cheng Qianfan's car also stopped.
One of the men immediately got out of the car and walked around to the other side of the car door. After other people gathered around to warn him, they opened the car door.
Mr. Xiao Cheng got out of the car, put on his hat, and walked towards Xiaochi's car under the guard of his subordinates. Xiaochi had already got out of the car and was waiting.
Cheng Qianfan shook hands with Xiaochi.
Then I got into Xiaochi's car.
"Monkey drives and follows." Then he ordered, "The leader will wait here."
"yes!"
…
Shanghai Japanese Army Hospital.
Cheng Qianfan, accompanied by Xiaochi, walked hurriedly in the corridor of the hospital.
At this time, Cheng Qianfan had taken off his windbreaker, put on a doctor's uniform, and put on a mask.
Along the way, there were constantly military doctors or Japanese officers passing by in Japanese military uniforms. Since Koike in Japanese military uniforms accompanied him, no one came up to question him.
Cheng Qianfan was also moved in his heart.
He has been secretly observing the hospital's security and checking the situation.
This was his first visit to the Japanese Army Hospital, and the interrogation here did not seem to be as strict as expected.
The fluorescent lamps in the corridor gave off a pale light, and from time to time wounded soldiers screamed, which was horrifying.
"Where is the war?" Cheng Qianfan asked Xiaochi casually.
"Maybe it's Araki-kun's men." Koike said.
"The loss is so huge?" Cheng Qianfan was shocked.
Outside the operating room, Jiro Sanmoto, who was dressed in a military uniform, was smoking silently. The butt of the cigarette flickered, and the smoker looked like a big stupid bear about to explode.
"Section Chief." Cheng Qianfan was so anxious that he didn't even bother to flatter the Chief, and asked eagerly, "How is Mr. Araki?"
"The doctor is performing an operation." Sanbonjiro said. His eyes were bloodshot and his expression was cold and scary. He glanced at Kentaro Miyazaki and said, "Follow me."
"Hai!"
…
Sanbonjiro temporarily borrowed a room in the hospital as an office, and Koike was also invited out. Only Sanbonjiro and Cheng Qianfan were in the room.
"Chief, how could Mr. Araki get hurt?" Cheng Qianfan looked puzzled and anxious and couldn't help but ask.
"Kikuchi is a reckless guy." Sanbonjiro said in a deep voice, "Araki knows Kikuchi and took the initiative to ask Miao to help."
"As expected of Mr. Araki, who is loyal to the empire." Cheng Qianfan said immediately after hearing this.
He already had a rough guess about this matter in his mind. After all, Sanbonjiro couldn't stand that Nishimura's class had to take the credit alone. For the extra-high-level class, watching Nishimura's class eating alone was simply worse than having the high-school class himself.
The loss is even more painful.
Araki Harima must have been sent by Sanbonjiro to 'support' Kikuchi Masataka of the Nishimura class, and there is a high probability that Araki encountered an enemy in the defense zone of the Hejian headquarters. In this case, the special high school class can really be said to have stolen
If the chicken fails, the rice will be wasted.
In this case, the fact that Sanbonjiro sent Araki Harima to Hebu was a mistake in itself, not too big or too small.
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan must not praise Sanbonjiro's arrangement of this action in a positive way at this time, or even praise Sanbonjiro for considering everything in the interests of the empire (sending people to selflessly support the Nishimura squad).
The most appropriate choice is to put all this on the seriously injured Araki Harima. This matter was entirely due to Araki Harima's loyalty to the empire and he took the initiative to help neighboring units.
What a great quality this is.
What's more, Araki Harima was seriously injured in the action!
In this way, Sanbonjiro completely distanced himself from the relationship, and Araki Harima not only would not be punished, but would even be praised and affirmed.
As for the top brass of the military, it is naturally impossible to be so ignorant that they cannot clearly see the fishery involved. However, it is normal for the two secret service agencies to compete with each other and grab credit. The top brass have long been used to it. The most important thing is
The point is to maintain superficial harmony:
There must be a high-sounding reason!
Moreover, in fact, when Sanbonjiro said that Araki Harima had "taken the initiative to ask for help," Cheng Qianfan knew that this was the tone set by Division Chief Sanbon, and he knew how to answer the question.
As expected, when Miyazaki Kentaro praised Araki Harima for his loyalty to the empire, Mimotojiro nodded slightly and also praised Araki Harima.
The section chief, together with Kentaro Miyazaki, highly praised Araki Harima who was still undergoing surgery in the operating room.
Then, Sanbonjiro finally told why Araki Harima was injured.
…
"What?" Cheng Qianfan was stunned, looking at Sanbonjiro with an incredible expression in his eyes.
Then the disbelief in his eyes turned into flames of anger, "Mataka Kikuchi! The people from Nishimura's class dared to shoot Araki-kun! This is how they treated Araki-kun who selflessly supported them!"
Seeing Kentaro Miyazaki who was almost out of anger, Mimotojiro felt quite happy in his heart. Miyazaki and Araki were good friends. As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, and Kentaro Miyazaki was very good.
Even the darkest person likes his subordinates to be kind and kind.
"Miyazaki-kun, calm down." Sanbonjiro said in a deep voice, "Although there are now various signs that Araki was ambushed by Kikuchi Masataka's people, Kikuchi Masataka has denied this."
"Of course they don't dare to admit it." Cheng Qianfan said angrily, "Araki-kun went to support with good intentions, but Kikuchi Masataka doesn't see it that way. He will most likely think that Araki-kun is here to take the credit."
"I've heard Mr. Araki say a long time ago that these guys in Nishimura's class are arrogant and arrogant. Sure enough..."
"Bag ducks down!" Sanbonjiro scolded angrily, "Miyazaki, don't let your anger burn your reason. This matter will eventually be investigated and come to light."
Araki Harima led the team to support Kikuchi Masataka. After the two sides met, an unpleasant quarrel occurred.
Then, just as Araki Harima was about to lead his team to 'forcibly' enter, gunshots suddenly rang out in the darkness.
Araki Harima was shot and fell to the ground.
Almost instantly, Araki Harima's men concluded that Kikuchi Masataka's men were responsible, and immediately fired back.
Soon, a brief but fierce gun battle broke out between the two sides.
In just a few minutes, a total of four people on both sides were shot and killed, and many others were seriously injured, including Araki Harima, who was the first to be shot.
"Section Chief, my subordinates still insist that this matter was done by Kikuchi Masataka." Cheng Qianfan lost his breath and said.
"I said I would investigate this matter and get to the bottom of it." Sanbonjiro said solemnly, "Okay, you don't need to ask about this matter. The Military Police Headquarters has already intervened."
"Hai."
…
Kentaro Miyazaki sighed helplessly, "My biggest expectation right now is that Araki-kun can be a lucky star."
"Araki must be very happy to have a friend like you." Sanbonjiro nodded slightly and said in admiration.
His eyes were fixed on Miyazaki Kentaro, "Miyazaki-kun, I have a task for you."
"Search Chief, please give the order. Miyazaki will go all out." Cheng Qianfan quickly expressed his stance with a solemn expression.
He has now grasped the pulse of Sanbonjiro very accurately. Under his money offensive, Sanbonjiro has great trust in him. On this basis, Sanbonjiro's most direct perception of his request comes from
:
manner!
No matter whether you can complete the task or not, you must first have a correct attitude!
As for whether the task can be completed, there are naturally many objective or non-objective factors.
"Based on the situation reported by Arino, it can now be determined that Kikuchi Masataka went to the He Xing headquarters defense area precisely to recruit He Xing headquarters." Mimotojiro said.
After a pause, Sanbonjiro said expressionlessly, "Or to be more precise, He Xingjian, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Loyalty and Salvation Army, has officially pledged allegiance to the Locust Army, and the 50,000 men under his command will also officially join the Locust Army." Sanbonjiro said.
Jiro said.
Hearing this, Cheng Qianfan didn't look overjoyed, but muttered angrily, "Such a great achievement, the West Village class is cheap."
"Bag duck falls." Sanbonjiro was furious and cursed, "He Xingjian's tens of thousands of people surrendered to the locust army. This is a major success. Stupid guy, don't stick to your immediate interests."
"Hai." Cheng Qianfan said quickly, "What the Section Chief taught me is that the structure of my subordinates is too small, and I must follow your example, Section Chief."
Sanbonjiro felt that this guy's words seemed to be sarcastic, but he had no evidence.
However, Sanbonjiro will naturally not be angry because of this. Miyazaki Kentaro has a temper and feels uncomfortable. This just shows that Miyazaki's position is correct and he considers the interests of the special high school wholeheartedly.
"He Xingjian will lead some of his officers to Shanghai in the near future, and the empire will prepare a grand welcome ceremony for He Xingjian." Sanbonjiro said, "Before the welcome ceremony is made public, in order to ensure the sensational effect of the matter, He Xingjian
They will be temporarily placed in the French Concession."
"The military attaches great importance to He Xingjian's surrender and must ensure He Xingjian's safety in the French Concession." Mimotojiro looked at Kentaro Miyazaki and said.
Cheng Qianfan frowned, and he subconsciously raised an objection, "Section Chief, why don't you just place He Xingjian in the imperial-occupied area?"
As he spoke, he showed a look of dissatisfaction, "He Xingjian defected to the Locust Army. This is the credit of the Xicun Team. Now that they have made such a great contribution, the subsequent thankless work has been handed over to us."
The more Cheng Qianfan talked, the angrier he became, and his face became more and more gloomy and ugly.
