In order to avoid being followed, Shuisheng went alone to the military hotel where Jiang Yonggang and the others lived.
Jiang Yonggang, the five of them, and the other four were sent out for reconnaissance. He stayed alone in the hotel and listened to Shui Sheng's explanation of the situation. Jiang Yonggang was also in a dilemma. It was difficult to make a decision for a while. After pondering for a long time, he made a decision, no matter what happened. For whatever purpose, we must find a way to see Kuroda.
"Kuroda should be one of our own, otherwise the commander-in-chief will not allow us to mention him at critical moments. The assassination mission can be delayed. As long as we are not wiped out in one fell swoop, we have a chance. However, the mission of the Guards Division cannot be delayed. Just wait a moment, I will send a telegram to the Ancient Emperor to see if there is any progress on their side. If not, I will go and see that Panasonic in person."
Half an hour later, news came from the Ancient Emperor. So far, they have not been able to obtain any valuable information about the Guards Division.
After burning the message, Jiang Yonggang said to Shui Sheng: "We can only take risks."
Other people staying in the military hotel came back one after another, bringing back a lot of peripheral intelligence.
"I have inquired clearly. Kuroda is currently at the Nagasaki military port. He and his gang of Japanese seem to be under protection."
"Several passenger ships arrived at Nagasaki Naval Port today, and one of them is said to have transported Japanese soldiers to Shanghai."
"I tested several Japanese in succession today, and none of them have heard of the name Koizumi Toshiichiro."
…
At night, before eight o'clock, Jiang Yong and Shui Sheng went to Maruyama Hot Spring House. Seto and Matsushita were already waiting there, and there were only two of them.
Jiang Yonggang's pseudonym is Haneda Linnosuke, and he is a captain. The four of them sat cross-legged on the tatami under the service of Tang Nu, drinking wine and talking at the same time.
"I can't make the decision on this matter." Getting to the point, Jiang Yonggang said: "Only Mr. Kuroda can make the decision, so if you are really sincere in cooperating, please take me to see Mr. Kuroda."
When Matsushita went back to report the situation to Niijima, they had already analyzed this, so they were not surprised to hear Jiang Yonggang's reply. Matsushita said: "This matter is more difficult. Lord Kuroda is now the distinguished guest of Lord Koizumi and is under strict supervision." protection.”
A group of people had been searching for more than a day, but could not get any information about Xiaoquan. Now, they heard this name from a lieutenant staff officer. Jiang Yonggang and Shui Sheng couldn't help but feel excited. The two looked at each other to hide their emotions. Jiang Yonggang Said: "But why did I hear that they were detained by you in the name of smuggling? Matsushita-kun, this matter is related to whether we can cooperate in the long term. Please tell me frankly."
Panasonic pushed up his glasses and said: "I don't know much about this matter, but I can tell you for sure that it is definitely not a seizure."
"Then can you arrange a meeting for us? Just let me ask for instructions in person."
"Do we have to meet?" Seto said, "Just pass a note. It's not difficult to do."
Panasonic: "Yeah, pass a note to report."
"No." Jiang Yonggang insisted, "If this is the case, then there is no need for us to cooperate. If you can't even do this little thing, how can you expect us to trust your so-called strong connections in Nagasaki to smuggle this If you don't do this well, you will lose your head. Xiandao, let's go." After Jiang Yong finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the door.
Shui Sheng stood up immediately, shook his head at Seto, and also wanted to walk towards the door.
Seeing this, Seto immediately lost his composure. He stood up and ran after them to stop them, saying, "Please wait a moment, we didn't say no."
Matsushita also stood up and said: "Haneda-kun, you are so impatient. This is not a quality that a qualified businessman should possess."
"I just don't want to waste time. Is it easy for us to come over from Hainan? To be honest, there are many people who want to cooperate with us. You are not our only choice." Jiang Yonggang said this, but stopped. ,
Seto diligently pulled the two people back to their seats and said: "The matter of meeting Mr. Kuroda is all on us. Today, let's put work aside and enjoy ourselves. Mama-san, where are the girls, find a few young and beautiful girls?" Come here, we have a big customer here."
"Hai, here we come."
Kuroda hid on the boat, originally thinking that he could get away from the dispute. However, in the end, he still could not escape. At about ten o'clock the next morning, Hanazuka sent word that someone claiming to be one of his subordinates wanted to see him. At that time, he was dumbfounded, "Ba Ge, these group of student soldiers are really a plague. You can't escape even if you want to. However, they are really brave enough. Aren't they afraid that I will reveal their identities? This is Japan." ." With this thought in his mind and without showing it on his face, Kuroda disembarked from the ship under the escort of several military policemen and saw Jiang Yonggang, Shui Sheng and Niinda in the reception room of the military port.
Seeing Niijima, Kuroda was ready to kick him. He immediately figured out that Niijima must have been involved in this matter. Maybe he wanted to take credit for himself, "Ba Ge, pig." , they are military students." Cursing in his heart, a smile appeared on his face, "Niijima-kun, thank you very much."
"Your Excellency, I finally see you." Jiang Yonggang and Shuisheng pretended to be extremely excited and stepped forward to greet you.
Kuroda only glanced at the two men and immediately concluded that they were definitely military trainees from units similar to the Wolf Fang and the Unity Brigade. Kuroda had been fortunate enough to witness the training of the Unity Brigade, and he had the same feeling at the time: His scalp was numb and his teeth were cold. But now, when he casually glanced at the two people's hands and found the calluses on them, he felt like this again,
"Ba Ge, how did they sneak into the Japanese island? They couldn't have followed them by hiding on the Daitomi Maru." He thought, recalling that he had carefully inspected all the cabins and every cabin on the ship. Corner, but found nothing, his teeth became colder and colder, he cursed Shen Gen'er and said: "I really suffered from this bastard." Gritting his teeth, he nodded: "Are you okay?"
"Yes, thank you for your concern."
"Your Excellency." Shui Shengfu'er went over and said, "My name is Sendou Kusei, and his name is Haneda Linnosuke. Your Excellency Niijima wants to cooperate with us. What do you think?"
Although they have recognized their status as military trainees in their hearts, they still have illusions after all, what if they are really the so-called Taiwanese family members in Shen Gener's mouth. Now, Shui Sheng personally told this, the last glimmer of hope was shattered, Kuroda I just felt that my eyes were getting dark, and I almost fell down. I gritted my teeth and tried to stay calm. I thought about Shui Sheng's words just now. I wonder what Shui Sheng's so-called cooperation is about. Could it be that this new island has also been bought by them? Kuroda Looking at Niijima with an inquiring expression,
The military police guarding Kuroda were standing at the door with loaded ammunition, so from Niijima's point of view, it was normal for Shui Sheng and Kuroda to bite their ears. Seeing Kuroda looking over, he nodded, leaned closer and said, "Sir Kuroda, what do you think? .”
Kuroda looked at Jiang Yonggang and then at Shui Sheng, gritted his teeth and said, "Just make the decision according to Xiandao Lord."
Niijima was naturally satisfied with this answer. He nodded, looked at Jiang Yonggang and Shui Sheng, and said, "Okay, I have obtained the consent of Mr. Kuroda. Let's go." Lowering his voice, he said, "This place is a military fortress. It’s not advisable to stay here for a long time, so leave quickly.”
Kuroda originally suspected that he had been bribed by the military trainees. After hearing what he said, he became more and more convinced of this. He couldn't help but think: "These military trainees are really bold. They dared to bribe an imperial major-level officer not long after they arrived." , that's fine, if something happens in the future, I will give him up to atone for my sins." Thinking of this, it seemed that he had an extra life-saving trump card, and Kuroda felt much more comfortable.
