"Especially in Dalian, where the Japanese are most active, the organization sent comrades to invade the enemy, striving to obtain further trends and confidential matters of the Japanese army's possible invasion of China." Cheng Qianfan pointed to a passage in the document and read it to Imamura Hitotaro.
"The implicit meaning revealed by this sentence is that the Manchurian Special Corps of the Red Party has installed spies within a certain agency of the Dalian Empire." He expressed his serious expression, "From the following, the Manchurian Special Corps of the Red Party obtained a lot of information about the possible attack on the Empire in Manchuria that year, and the sources of these intelligence are most likely from these spies who invaded our side."
"Very good." Imamura Hitaro nodded with relief, "You were able to quickly lock into doubts on the file, which did not disappoint me."
As he said that, he took out a cigarette from the cigarette box. Seeing this, Cheng Qianfan skillfully took out a lighter to help the teacher light it.
After gently sucking a cigarette, Hitotaro Imamura made a thoughtful look, looked at Kentaro Miyazaki, and then slowly said, "Kanto Prefecture also noticed this sentence in the document, and spent a lot of manpower, material resources and time to investigate."
...
Kanto Prefecture is Dalian. The Japanese occupied it here and operated it for many years. They have long regarded Dalian and Lushun as their territory.
"It should be found out clearly and find out this spy." Cheng Qianfan said seriously, "It has existed within us in the sixth year of Showa. If this person is still within me, we will be unprepared for the enemy, and this person may even have an important position within us..."
As he said that, his face became even more gloomy, "...it makes people shudder when they think about it."
"According to the investigation of the Kanto Prefecture Special High School, they finally locked the possible hidden place of the spy in the Kanto Prefecture Military Police Brigade Special High School." Hitaro Imamura said slowly.
Special high class?
Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?" asked Hitaro Imamura.
"The students just find it strange that this matter involves the special high school course, and it is the special high school course in Kanto Prefecture. At present, this matter has little to do with the diplomatic department. Why did the teacher suddenly pay attention to this matter?" Cheng Qianfan expressed his doubts frankly.
As Hitaro Imamura's beloved disciple, he naturally thought about what he said now, and he didn't need to have too many concerns.
...
Hitotaro Imamura smiled, not answering Kentaro Miyazaki's question, but continued, "The key suspects are actually two, Araki and Yoshiheiban."
"Araki?" Cheng Qianfan said in surprise, "Is this person related to Araki Hatsuma, a student's colleague in the special high school class?"
"Araki Kazunaga Zuo, the squad leader of the extracurricular affairs class of the Kanto Prefecture Independent Gendarmerie Brigade." Imamura Hitaro said, "One of his other identity is Araki Hatsuma's clan brother."
It actually has something to do with Araki Kaori.
"So that's it." Cheng Qianfan nodded.
"The other person, Yoshihira Saemon, is from Nagasaki, the empire. His identity is the leader of the spy defense class of the Kanto Prefecture Special High School." Hitotaro Imamura said, and then he briefly introduced the structure of the local secret service agencies, judicial and police departments to his beloved disciples.
...
As an "excellent" agent of Shanghai Special High School Course, Cheng Qianfan has a good understanding of the internal structure of Shanghai Special High School Course. Even so, he is still shocked by the powerful functions of the Japanese constitutional special agency in Dalian.
The functional positioning of the military police in "Kanto Prefecture" is very different from that of the Japanese military police and the special high school classes in other places.
Japanese imperialism has been operating on this land for many years, and both administrative and judicial police are quite complete, almost the same as in Japan.
Take the Kanto Prefecture Gendarmerie for example. This is the only independent gendarmerie among the Japanese invaders in China, and has absolutely strong law enforcement powers;
Monitor the dock and monitor the dock workers.
Strengthen police defense, detect and suppress all anti-Japanese activities.
In addition, it is also responsible for searching underground workers from the Guohong Party and foreign spies entering by sea, monitoring labor recruited from North China and Shandong, and reviewing ships docked in various places.
The Independent Gendarmerie Brigade has two teams, Dalian and Lushun, and has set up special high school classes at the headquarters.
The Japanese invaders were arrogant and domineering in China, burning, killing, looting, and the military police in Dalian were even more arrogant and domineering because of their special nature.
After listening to Imamura Hitotaro's introduction, Cheng Qianfan also remembered something. When he was at the East Asian Arts Academy, he once heard Imai Ta say something.
At that time, Imai Tai was quite complacent and could even be described as complacent.
After the September 18th Incident, the Japanese military police team in Kanto Prefecture were responsible for arresting and guarding the Northeast military and political leaders who had not had time to escape.
The Japanese army set up layers of open and secret posts around the detention areas, and strictly prohibited any "idle people" from approaching to prevent the wandering Northeast Army from robbing prisons and saving people.
The military police on duty must be interrogated and searched regardless of their identity, regardless of their identity.
One day, the American consul in Fengtian passed by a detention place by car.
The Japanese military police suddenly rushed out of the roadside, directly grabbed their guns and stopped the car, and searched the car and the US consul.
The US consul took out a business card to indicate his identity.
The Japanese military police ignored it at all and even forced the American consul to take off his pants to check, and even made a fuss about the privacy of the American consul.
Finally, he lied that the other party was pretending to be a diplomat.
The US consul was furious by two Japanese military police and teased him, and he kept accusing the Japanese military police of infringing on consular diplomatic rights.
The military police pulled the consul out of the car using the excuse of interfering with military affairs and gave it a slap in three Pentax.
The US consul fled in a panic, covered his face, and later ran to the Kwantung Army Command and raised a strong protest to Commander Honjo Shizuka.
Honjo-sama waved his hand and refused to admit that the matter was done by his own side. He also accused the US of deliberately spreading rumors and slandering the situation with the intention of undermining Japan-US relations.
...
In any normal country, this kind of thing will cause uproars and major diplomatic storms. Not only no one in Japan is held accountable, but it has become a thing worth showing off.
This incident was later spread within the Japanese military police, and even spread more widely. It was talked about by the Japanese. It was regarded as a grand event in which the Great Japanese Empire rose and could arbitrarily humiliate white people in Europe and the United States. This is the pride of the Great Japanese Empire.
In the words of Imai Tai, those two military police did a lot of things that the Japanese dreamed of—
Suck the American ghost old man’s big mouth!
Cheng Qianfan peeled off the kraft paper from Imamura Hitotaro's head cake, and smiled on his mouth and told the story that Imamura Hitotaro's widely circulated.
Sure enough, Imamura Hitaro also knew about this. However, Imamura Counselor did not seem to agree with the behavior of the two military policemen of the Kanto Prefecture Gendarmerie Brigade. He shook his head with a serious expression and commented on "It hurts the country's style."
...
Cheng Qianfan smiled, not echoing the teacher's words or refuting anything.
Imamura Hitaro glanced at his students and understood the psychology of young people like Kentaro Miyazaki. The empire was knocked on by the Americans back then. If the empire had a thousand-year wish in addition to occupying China, then the empire had a hundred-year wish, which was to defeat the United States and avenge the previous shame.
Young people like Miyazaki will naturally applaud what can make Americans ugly.
Just now, Kentaro Miyazaki saw that he was a little tired after working for a long time, so he changed the topic and told these "interesting things", and at the same time sent some pastries to satisfy his hunger.
Imamura Hitaro's attention and meticulous concern for him were naturally seen by Kentaro Miyazaki, and his heart was quite comfortable.
Now, after eating tea and pastries, the two of them talked about the main business again.
"Teacher, is it because this suspected spy incident involves the foreign affairs department and is involved in Shanghai that it is transferred from Kanto to your hands?" Cheng Qianfan thought for a while, understood the joints, and asked.
Imamura Hitaro smiled and signaled Kentaro Miyazaki to continue.
"The comrades in the Red Party's Manchurian Special Correspondence are not only from the Chinese Red Party, but also from the Soviet Union!" Cheng Qianfan thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he said, "This person may be from the Soviet Union."
As he said that, Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "It's impossible that he is a Soviet Russian, with obvious differences in appearance. Then, the biggest possibility is the Red International Chinese Red Party led by the Soviet Union."
"Your analysis is already closer." Imamura Hitaro nodded slightly, "Araki Ban is indeed aiming at Soviet Russia and Red International."
...
As Soviet intelligence personnel and radio stations are constantly being discovered in the Dalian area, the UHC class is becoming increasingly aware that whether it is to think about the Soviet war in the future or to suppress anti-Japanese activities in Dalian, regular intelligence reconnaissance activities must be carried out around Soviet intelligence and strategic activities.
From the date of its establishment, the foreign affairs class of the Special High School Class has focused on the Soviet Union.
The extracurricular extracurricular class of Kanto Prefecture Independent Gendarmerie Brigade of Kanto Prefecture is a special institution. It is a "special team" that carries out targeted reconnaissance work centered on foreigners and Soviet consulates in Dalian.
Their reconnaissance focus was first on the Soviets and they tried to discover Soviet spies.
Secondly, it is to reconnaise the intelligence network of the Nationalist Party and Britain and the United States in "Kanto Prefecture".
The Special High School treats the Soviet consulate in Dalian as its base for commanding intelligence activities, receiving funds and espionage equipment.
So various secret anti-espionage activities were launched around the consulate.
Not only did they monitor the embassy and consulate personnel in the Soviet consulate, they bribed Chinese chefs and Chinese female teachers who worked in the consulate to collect information for them.
"From the Chinese chef's mouth, there was a piece of information confirmed." Imamura Hitaro said, "In the sixth year of Showa, there were indeed people from Red International who had secret contacts with the Soviet consulate."
"Can a chef know about such a hidden thing?" Cheng Qianfan was very surprised, as if he didn't expect that the Soviet consulate would be so relaxed in guarding against it.
"Cooks and doctors are professions that know the most," said Hitotaro Imamura.
"I understand." Cheng Qianfan thought for a moment, suddenly realized, and looked at Imamura Hitaro with admiration. "The empire has an extra great diplomat, but it also has lost a genius spy expert."
Imamura Hitaro was very comfortable by this flattery by his student and said with a smile, "Human energy is limited, and he is dedicated to the empire, and there is no regret."
"The students have been taught." Cheng Qianfan said respectfully.
...
"The ones who have contact with the Soviet Union, except for Kazunari Araki, are Yoshihira Saemon's anti-espionage squad." said Hitaro Imamura.
In addition to preventing the Soviet Union and Russia, the foreign affairs team also needs to prevent the National Party and preventing the great powers such as Britain, the United States and France. The anti-espionage team has always had only one main work goal:
Soviet Russia.
The focus is to prevent the Soviet Union from sending anti-Japanese troops in Manchuria through training and sneaking back to Dalian to cause rebellion.
It is obvious that the personnel of the Manchurian Special Branch of the Red Party may also have received secret training from the Soviet Union.
"There is another possibility." Cheng Qianfan frowned and thought, "The spy lurking in the empire may not be from the Red International, or it may be the Soviet Union who directly helped the Chinese Red Party train it."
Kentaro Miyazaki looked at his 'dear teacher', "These are already the affairs of Chen Zhima Lankoko in Kanto Prefecture."
He said, "It only shows two points when teachers pay so much attention."
"The person who is hiding inside the Kantong Prefecture Special High School may be coming to Shanghai, or even already in Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan frowned and thought, "or he found some clues and pointed to Shanghai."
As he said that, Cheng Qianfan showed an even more puzzled expression, "Teacher, you have never liked these, and you rarely pay attention to similar things directly."
Hitaro Imamura did not answer immediately, but lit another cigarette and took a few sips silently.
"Kentaro, you should know that I worked in Manchuria before coming to the Imperial Consulate General in Shanghai." said Hitotaro Imamura.
"Yes, teacher, you used to be in the Kanto Prefecture Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs..." Cheng Qianfan said, revealing a sudden realization, "Teacher--"
"In the seventh year of Showa, the Kanto Prefecture office lost a very confidential document." Imamura Hitotaro said slowly, "This document was lost very strangely. The Empire has never given up on pursuing this matter, but no clues have been found."
Cheng Qianfan thought to himself that the seventh year of Showa was the 21st year of the Republic of China. At that time, Imura Hitotaro was still working in the Kanto Prefecture Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Imura Hitotaro remembered this matter so deeply that there were obvious emotional fluctuations when talking about it. If this matter was not done well, it was related to Imura Hitotaro, and he even had certain responsibility for the matter at that time.
Therefore, although it has been seven years since then, Imamura Hitaro still holds a grudge against this matter.
Now, Cheng Qianfan is more concerned about what kind of involvement this matter has with Shanghai?
Is there any information pointing to Shanghai?
Or, or even a visitor from Dalian?
