The death of Yoshikawa Gomon has been investigated for some time.

But after checking again and again, nothing was found.

Instead, many rooms in the New Asia Hotel were transformed into temporary interrogation rooms.

It is said that in these interrogation rooms, there are endless screams from morning to night.

But the truth?

There is no truth.

Fortunately, we finally have a scapegoat, Hiaki Inoue.

However, there is a more pressing issue facing the Japanese spy agencies:

A special envoy sent by superiors to investigate this matter is about to arrive in Shanghai.

"I believe that the Army agency should be responsible for receiving the special envoy."

At the impromptu meeting, as the head of the Army Intelligence Agency in Shanghai, Colonel Matsumoto Nitsugi said this as soon as he opened his mouth.

I can understand what Matsumoto Nitsugi said.

Whoever can stay with the special envoy for a long time and get in touch with him immediately will be able to put himself in a favorable position.

Get rid of as much responsibility as possible.

The head of the naval intelligence agency and one of the "Three Tigers of the Empire", Colonel Michio Tanishihara, sneered: "Army? Do you want to place Mr. Special Envoy in the public concession? Here, do you think you have the ability to protect Mr. Special Envoy?

is it safe?"

The people attending the meeting looked at each other.

How come the dignified public concession has now become a dangerous place?

Matsumoto Nitsugi showed no sign of weakness and retorted: "Is it safe to arrange him in Hongkou? Or should we arrange him in the New Asia Hotel?"

Tanishihara Michichi suddenly showed displeasure: "Matsumoto-kun, what do you mean?"

The Japanese army and navy had already accumulated grudges, and Matsumoto Nitsugi did not pay attention to Tanishigehara Michichi at all: "What I mean is that Lord Yoshikawa was safe and sound in the public concession, but when he went to Hongkou, he was loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.

"

"you!"

Gu Shigendao was furious.

"Okay, let's stop arguing." Japanese Consul General in Shanghai Attaché Hiromi Hiromitsu Hirosawa hurriedly acted as a peacemaker: "The tragedy has happened. What we need now is not an argument, but how to deal with it properly. If the reception is safe,

Your Excellency, Special Envoy.”

Since the death of Chichi Akagi, the Japanese Foreign Ministry's spy power in Shanghai has been sharply reduced, and it lacks the strength to compete with the army and navy's spy agencies.

Seeing that neither of them was convinced by the other, Koichi Hahara hurriedly said: "Your Excellency Tanishige and Mr. Matsumoto, I have a suggestion."

"explain."

"No party can escape responsibility for the death of Yoshikawa Gomon. If the situation remains the same after the special envoy arrives, I think it will be very detrimental to both of us."

Matsumoto Nitsugi and Tanishigehara snorted at the same time.

Hahara Koichi continued: "Now, the main responsibility lies with Inoue Hiaki. I think the two colonels should work together to make the special envoy's investigation as successful as possible."

He was implicitly reminding the two of them that with a scapegoat like Inoue Hiaki, if the two sides continued to argue endlessly, both sides would suffer.

Although Matsumoto Nitsugi and Tanishihara Michichi were both dissatisfied with each other, they decided not to continue arguing as it related to each other's responsibilities and their respective futures.

"If anything happens to the special envoy again this time, I don't know what kind of responsibility we will bear, but we will definitely become a joke."

Hahara Koichi specifically reminded this point: "So I suggest that the two sides set up a joint team to jointly be responsible for the reception of Mr. Special Envoy."

Although this is not the perfect result that both parties want, under the current circumstances, this is the only feasible way.

Everyone monitors each other, and if an accident occurs, the responsibility is shared, and no one can escape.

Kawamoto Kojiro, who had been listening all the time, sighed inwardly.

Shanghai.

How did Shanghai become like this?

One Meng Shaoyuan made the Japanese secret service agencies feel like they were walking on thin ice.

Was Shanghai occupied by the Japanese Empire?

Whose Shanghai is this Shanghai?

"I hope Mr. Matsumoto and Mr. Tanishiba can discuss the matter of the joint team in detail." Hiroshi Hiroshi said immediately: "Now, there is another important task. With the efforts of my Yunnan agent, the nephew of the famous Chinese businessman Qu Huanzhang

Hou Qunfeng will arrive in Shanghai soon, and traveling with him will be Xin Zhuangwen, the beloved son of the Yunnan Army brigade commander Xin Biquan."

There was no connection between Matsumoto Nitsugi and Tanishigehara Michichi.

This is a matter for your Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"Everyone." Guangze Boman also knew what they were thinking, and said bravely: "The Yunnan Army is about to arrive in Xuzhou. Hou Qunfeng is a very important part of our plan. Once the plan goes smoothly, China and Yunnan will be

This has caused a serious blow to the morale of the troops, so the Ministry of Foreign Affairs urgently hopes to get your assistance."

"Of course, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' affairs are our business."

Matsumoto Nitsugi was the first to speak: "However, my intelligence agency has a heavy workload. It is said that Meng Shaoyuan is conducting a major operation against my organization. I can't be distracted at the moment."

If Meng Shaoyuan knew that he had become a shield for the Japanese, he would not know whether to cry or laugh.

"It doesn't matter whether it's the Navy, the Army, or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

Michio Tanishihara said: "Everyone is working hard for the holy war of the empire. However, Mr. Hirosawa and Mr. Yoshikawa were assassinated at the New Asia Hotel, and there are Chinese spies who have absconded. I am stepping up my efforts to solve the case and cannot be dispatched at all.

Power."

Guangze Boman was so angry.

They are all looking for excuses to evade.

Koichi Hahara smiled bitterly in his heart.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs became a soft persimmon after the death of Akagi Chika.

The Army and Navy didn't take them seriously.

Hou Qunfeng is certainly important, but if he wants to protect him, he will inevitably have to face the military commander again.

If something happens again, the credit will not be denied, but it will be made all the more embarrassing.

Who is willing to take this hot potato?

Hiroshi Hiroshi endured his displeasure and said: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is severely lacking in power. Matsumoto-kun and Tanishige-kun, please help us in any way possible."

"Of course I want to help."

Michio Tanishihara looked embarrassed: "But the situation there is not optimistic. The consulate is in a public concession. I think Matsumoto-kun is obligated to do this."

Matsumoto Jintsugi was furious.

What does it mean to be obligated?

You have no responsibility anymore, what about yourself?

Just as he was about to find an excuse to refuse, he suddenly heard Kawamoto Kojiro say: "Your Excellency Colonel, please send me to assist Lord Guangshi."

Fool.

The number one fool in the world!

Isn’t this a nice thing?

But his subordinates had already said so, so Matsumoto Nitsugi could only bite the bullet and said: "Since Kawamoto volunteered, I agree."

"Please, Colonel, please allocate another group of people to me."

Matsumoto Hitoshi thought for a while and then said: "Yes, even though the situation is so difficult, I will still assign three of your subordinates."

How many?

Kawamoto Kojiro wondered if he heard wrongly.

Even myself, there are four of them?
