"Stupid, Inoue is Takemoto's confidant, and he is also Ishihara Hiroshi's man. How many brains do you have? If Ishihara Hiroshi finds out, you will die violently in the next moment."
Jiang Tengkong cursed, Shuijin is an idiot, how did he fall in love with him in the first place?
It was so obvious that it was Ishihara Hiroshi, but he still wanted to make meritorious deeds.
In the future, I will find an opportunity to deal with him as soon as possible to save myself trouble. He is not afraid of ordinary people in Shanghai, but Ishihara Hiroshi is definitely not among them.
Last time he arrested them for any reason. If he was targeted, one more person would probably be killed suddenly.
Neither the Chinese nor Tuyuan could save him.
He knew very well how terrifying Ishihara Hiroshi was.
"I see."
Shuijin was shocked. He finally understood why the section chief didn't let him continue the investigation. Ishihara Hiroshi was involved in this matter?
In Shanghai, whoever dares to offend Ishihara Hiroshi cannot do so even if he has lived enough. It would be easier to settle the matter himself. If he offends Ishihara Hiroshi, his death will be extremely painful.
The person who checked Ishihara Hiroshi last time was also one of theirs, Yamauchi.
Nagumo was forced to hand her over to Toru Ishihara for disposal. It was said that she was tortured into a human form at the Military Police Headquarters and died after more than a month.
Yamauchi is a woman, and she endured more pain than men in the military police prison.
Who knows what she went through.
"Keep your mouth shut."
If he wasn't worried that he would hurt himself by talking nonsense, Jiang Tengkong wouldn't bother to care about him.
This matter must be reported as soon as possible, but before reporting it, he must first tell the Chinese people.
Loach received the message from Rose. Jiang Tengkong did a good job and really found out the truth.
"Team leader, Jiang Tengkong wants to report the truth to Tuyuan, do you want to stop him?"
Loach came to Chu Lingyun's office. Tu Yuan knew about Ishihara Hiroshi, which was equivalent to having an additional handle on the team leader.
It's not good for the team leader.
"Need not."
Chu Lingyun shook his head, Abe was finished, it didn't matter whether Tu Yuan knew or not.
So what if he knew?
Moreover, Abe's fake gold fell into the hands of Saijo. Sooner or later, they will find out, and then they will guess that it was their own hands the first time.
There is no need to hide it. Since Jiang Tengkong found out by himself, let him take the credit.
"yes."
Niyi felt relieved and called Jiang Tengkong back. Not long after, Tuyuan received an urgent call from Shanghai Special Higher Education School.
Jiang Tengkong found out the truth about Abe's gold case, and the person who took action was someone he didn't expect, Ishihara Hiroshi.
"As expected of the teacher's chosen successor, he is so ruthless."
After reading the telegram, Tsuchihara sighed to himself, Abe was greedy for money and money was his lifeblood, but Toru Ishihara stole all his gold and took Abe's life.
Abe's death is inseparable from Hiroshi Ishihara.
Tuyuan was very happy. Chu Lingyun's guess was correct. He thought he had got the handle on Ishihara Hiroshi.
"This matter is strictly confidential."
Tuyuan sent a call back to Jiang Tengkong. Jiang Tengkong did a good job. Ishihara Heng did it so secretly that they still found out.
Tokyo and Saijo also received the Tuhara message.
The person who stole Abe's gold turned out to be Ishihara Hiroshi, and Abe was the senior brother with whom he had the best relationship. If Touman hadn't robbed him of his apprentice, Ishihara Hiroshi would have been Abe's disciple.
Hiroshi Ishihara is indeed cruel enough to be so cruel to his own people.
"Someone, go check Abe's batch of gold immediately."
Nishida called his men. Since Ishihara Hiroshi was responsible for the matter, there might be something wrong with the gold that Abe brought home.
Abe had previously stored gold in Ishihara Hanna.
I wonder if Abe will want to kill Ishihara Hiroshi after knowing the truth?
Saijo was looking forward to it in his heart.
He first needs to confirm whether there is anything wrong with the gold. If there is, he can even release Abe.
With Abe's temperament, he would not let go of Ishihara Hiroshi.
It would be better if Hiroshi Ishihara was forced to kill him. Abe is not an ordinary person, and Hiroshi Ishihara will also leave behind a record of murdering his fellow sect members.
"Sir, we just melted a few gold bricks and found that only the surface layer is real gold, and the inside is all fake."
His subordinates quickly came to report. Saijo narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, Ishihara Hiroshi had done something. The three hundred gold bricks that Abe finally earned at the risk of his life also fell into Ishihara Hiroshi's hands.
"Go and bring Abe out and let him see it with his own eyes."
Saijo ordered that Abe might not be killed, but letting him go would be more effective.
Abe is in the cell, his hair is messy.
After being caught, he thought Ishihara Hiroshi and his teacher Tomitsu would save him, but until now, no one has come to see him.
His cousin came once and told him the truth.
He has gone too far, killed so many people, offended too many people, and now no one wants him to live.
His cousin couldn't save him, but told him that his family had been picked up by Touman and they were now safe.
Abe is completely desperate, his cousin said so, he will definitely be finished this time.
"Abe."
The cell door was suddenly opened, and Abe opened his eyes and looked at the person at the door.
"Sakai."
He recognized the person, the cronies around Saijo. What was he doing here? Was he going to execute him?
Abe trembled and hurriedly hid inside.
Normally he is aloof, but after being caught, he is just like ordinary people, he just wants to survive.
He regretted it now. He shouldn't have taken money so seriously. If he hadn't been too impatient, he wouldn't have angered so many people and made them join forces to kill him.
"Bring him out."
Sakai ordered, and several people immediately went in and dragged Abe out like a dead dog.
Abe's face was dull and his whole body was trembling.
Sakai glanced at him contemptuously: "I want you to see something, come with me."
Abe's gold was stolen by Toru Ishihara and passed on to him. I believe it was a huge blow to Abe.
I wonder what his expression will be like when he knows the truth.
Anyway, it must be very exciting.
It was not an execution. Abe felt relieved a little. He had reached this point and there was no need for Sakai to lie to him.
Soon, the car drove to the vault, and Abe's gold was already placed there.
Seeing his gold, Abe's heart ached again.
This is what he paid for with his life, but it is a pity that it will be difficult to see him again in the future.
"Go and check to see if it's yours."
Sakai said to Abe. Abe was brought to the gold bricks. He gently touched the gold and examined it carefully, including the hidden symbols. He could see every one of them clearly.
There are dozens of them here.
Just let Abe verify it, there is no need to put so much.
"Yes, it's mine?"
Abe raised his head and didn't understand what Sakai meant. Is it humiliating him to show him what gold does?
"Smash it open."
Sakai ordered, and the man next to him immediately picked up a sledgehammer and smashed the gold bricks open. The outer gold cracked, revealing the contents inside.
The content inside is not gold at all, but something synthesized from other heavy metals, the most common of which is tungsten.
The price of tungsten is not cheap, but compared to gold, the price is much lower. Their weights are most similar. Using tungsten can allow gold bricks to maintain their original weight.
"How is this going?"
Abe was stunned, stepped forward to grab the smashed gold, and asked tremblingly.
"What's going on? Can't you understand? Your things have been repackaged, and the ones you brought back from China are all fakes."
Sakai sarcastically said that Abe was very pitiful. He had worked hard in China for several years, all just to make money for Toru Ishihara.
In the end, his own life was involved.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. I have a secret message and no one knows about it."
Abe couldn't believe it and kept shaking his head. Sakai sighed slightly: "You know best whether it's true or not. Your so-called secret message can be hidden from Ishihara Hiroshi. If you don't believe it, smash it all. If you don't believe it, the rest are all
I’ll bring it to you and let you smash it yourself.”
Abe really didn't believe it. He didn't believe that Toru Ishihara would swap his gold.
He stepped forward, took the hammer, and smashed a piece open himself.
Same as before, fake gold bricks.
I smashed several pieces in a row and it was still the same.
Abe collapsed on the ground. He was not a fool. He understood everything at this moment.
Why did Jiuquan take him to see these fake gold bricks? Why could someone steal his gold in Shanghai and kill so many people?
His previous gold was stolen by Hiroshi Ishihara, and he has this ability.
There is nothing Ishihara Hiroshi cannot do in Shanghai.
Similarly, if it weren't for Ishihara Hiroshi, the money would have been recovered long ago. If Ishihara Hiroshi was willing, his explosive energy would be huge, and it would be impossible for a few petty thieves to hide it from him.
It's funny that he didn't know it and actually put the gold in the hands of the thief afterwards.
The result was like this. The gold bricks he paid for with his life fell into the hands of Ishihara Hiroshi again.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Abe suddenly laughed loudly. He was wrong. He should not believe that Ishihara Hiroshi, the person the teacher liked and the successor he personally selected, could be a kind-hearted person?
Ishihara Hiroshi didn't touch him before because he didn't have much money.
As soon as he has more money, take action immediately.
It's a pity that he knew it too late. Ishihara Hiroshi was such a wolf-hearted guy, and Abe now wanted to eat all his flesh, drink his blood, and smash all his bones into pieces.
His hatred for Ishihara Hiroshi reached its peak at this moment.
"Take him back."
Sakai waved his hand, and you could tell by the look on Abe's face that he already believed the truth. He couldn't decide how to deal with Abe. It depends on the arrangements of the Prime Minister.
"He believed it?"
Saijo smiled, and Sakai nodded immediately: "I believe it. We didn't make the gold bricks. He brought them back from China in person. He smashed several pieces and laughed in the end. Don't you think he's crazy?"
"Don't worry, Abe is not someone who goes crazy easily. He must hate Toru Ishihara now."
Saijo's smile became even brighter. The enemy of his enemy was his friend. In a few days, he could release Abe and let him go to trouble Ishihara Hiroshi.
Abe was not his, and he and Hiroshi Ishihara were brothers. The more they quarreled, the better. He happened to be watching a show.
As a junior fellow student, I stole his senior brother's wealth and swapped his future gold. If this matter spreads out, let's see how Ishihara Hiroshi ends up.
Two days later, Abe walked out of the cell.
The family members were watching him. His family members were notified and came specially to pick him up.
No one expected that Saijo would suddenly release him.
Tohoku, Tuhara was stunned when he received the telegram. He knew Saijo's temperament and knew that he was so happy with success that he ignored everything, but he never expected that he would let Abe go so directly.
"idiot."
Tuhara slapped the table angrily, and he thought of Okamura. No wonder Okamura told him that it was not the best for Saijo to be prime minister, and he might do more wrong things.
This time he was wrong.
Tuhara regretted why he told Nishita the truth. He really didn't expect that Nishida would let Abe go without any discussion or even a greeting.
He understood that Saijo wanted to use Abe to deal with Ishihara Hiroshi, but he was too wishful thinking.
Is Hiroshi Ishihara such an easy person to deal with?
Ten Abes are no match for Hiroshi Ishihara.
What's more, now that Abe has nothing, what can he use to fight Ishihara Hiroshi?
It is true that Abe was arrested this time, it was Saijo's hand, but the ones who really want to arrest Abe are the big guys in the country, from the Duke to the generals, they all want Abe dead.
Saijo didn't say anything and just let people go. What would these people think?
Even if he wanted to be released, he had to explain the reasons for releasing him in advance. Saijo didn't do anything and just released him, which was completely beyond Tuhara's expectations.
He didn't even tell him, and it was even less likely that Saijo would tell anyone else.
Gangcun also knew about this, and he silently put away the message.
He was not surprised that Saijo did such a thing. What Saijo is good at is to confuse people. He is good at talking, but unfortunately he is not good at doing things.
Ishihara Nimaru's evaluation of him was right, he was just a top-class soldier and was incompetent for other duties.
Unfortunately, they were all deceived by Saijo.
Now I still have to hold my nose and wipe his butt.
He might be killed in the future.
In Shanghai, Chu Lingyun knew it was not too late at all. He knew about it before Abe was released.
It seems that Jiang Tengkong has reported it to Tuhara, and Tuhara told Saijo.
Stupid Saijo actually chose to let him go directly.
This alone offended many people. If these people could join forces to kill Abe, couldn't they join forces to deal with him?
Chu Lingyun smiled even brighter.
With his head filling the mansion, Abe looked up at the door.
This used to be his favorite place, but now it bores him and frightens him even more.
It's a pity that his family is here, so he can't come.
The original home has been raided.
He had offended so many people, and they had not done anything to his family. He should be grateful and grateful, but unfortunately, there was no kindness in his heart, but instead hatred.
If Tomitsu hadn't trained Ishihara Hiroshi, would he be where he is today?
Now he has become like a bereaved dog, all because of Ishihara Hiroshi.
"Master Abe is here. He is waiting for you to take care of you."
The housekeeper greeted him at the door and said with a smile. Abe recovered his mind and immediately lowered his head: "Thank you, teacher, for your blessing."
He wants to take revenge, so he needs to remain useful and must not offend Tou Man.
Tou Man was sitting on his knees in front of the table. He had not sat like this for a long time.
His body does not allow him to sit for too long.
"Teacher, I'm back."
Seeing Tomitsu, Abe immediately bowed his head and saluted. Tomitsu nodded slightly. Saijo was stupid and gave him a problem.
He would not allow Abe to deal with Ishihara Hiroshi.
"Why did Saijo let you out?"
Touman asked softly, and Abe's heart tightened. What did Touman mean? This was the first question he said when he saw him.
Doesn't he want to come out on his own?
"I am not sure."
Abe decided to hide it. He wanted revenge and sought revenge from Ishihara Hiroshi. Touman was too good to Ishihara Hiroshi and he could not tell the truth.
"Sit down."
Tomitsu didn't ask any more questions. He knew very well that Saijo was not so kind and that it was a huge mistake for Saijo to let Abe out.
Chu Lingyun did not report to Touman. Saijo knew that he stole Abe's gold. This was discovered by the Special High School. If he reported it, Touman would doubt his source of information.
For Tou Man, no one could tell him what was going on.
There is only one possibility for Saijo to offend so many people and release Abe. He knows the truth and wants to use Abe to deal with Ishihara Hiroshi.
Saijo is stupid, doing this will harm others and himself, and it will hurt him even more.
"Eat something first and then take a shower."
Touman said lightly, Abe did not dare to refuse. He was indeed hungry. The food in the cell was not even as good as pig food. The fragrant food in front of him made him appetite.
Soon he had eaten them all.
Tou Man did not accompany him and left when he was eating.
The butler stood beside Tou Man. After a while, Tou Man opened his eyes: "Have you eaten everything?"
"I've finished eating," the butler replied honestly.
"Take his house back and let him take his family home tomorrow."
After saying that, he closed his eyes. The housekeeper did not dare to speak and immediately arranged for someone to buy Abe's house back.
His house was seized by the government, and if he wanted to get it back, he had to pay.
Abe's home is not small and the price is not cheap, but to Touman, this amount of money is nothing.
Only the housekeeper knew that the food Touman fed Abe was spiked with ingredients.
Chronic poison.
The attacks lasted forty-eight hours, so he had to go home and not die here.
The next day, Abe bowed deeply to Toumatoshi. He knew that the teacher had redeemed his house for him. It seemed that the teacher still loved him and bought his house back immediately after he came out, so that he would not be homeless.
He didn't know that it would be better if he didn't come out, but if he came out, his family would be completely affected.
Originally, they were protected by Tou Mitsuru, and Ishihara Hiroshi promised to take care of them, but then Abe came out. Since Tou Mitsuru executed Abe with his own hands, it was impossible to keep his family.
Are you keeping it to create disaster for your descendants?
Abe had already lost his way out, but he didn't realize it, and eventually killed his whole family.
"master."
Abe's wife followed him, and the family stood at the door of their home, feeling very emotional.
This period of time was unforgettable for them. They saw the warmth and warmth of human nature, and understood the unpredictable nature of people's hearts.
Fortunately, with Amaterasu's blessing, Abe returned safely.
As long as Abe is alive, everything can start again.
"Let's go home."
Abe held his wife's hand. He still had money. People like him would not keep all their money in one place. Apart from what was confiscated this time, he still had at least millions of yen in reserves.
With this money, he and his family can live without worries for the rest of their lives.
It's a pity that he didn't want to live a peaceful life.
He wants revenge.
Moreover, he knew very well that Saijo let him out just to deal with Ishihara Hiroshi. If he did nothing, Saijo would attack him again.
Even to survive, he must take revenge.
The news of Abe's appearance was soon known to many high-level Japanese officials. Some of them were members of the House of Lords, other members of the House of Commons, government ministers, military generals, and senior generals in the base camp.
Everyone has the same attitude, dissatisfied.
What does Saijo mean and why was Abe released?
Although Abe did not inherit the title, the Abe family is not small. It would be easy to let him go, but it would be difficult to deal with him in the future.
Especially those whose family members died at the hands of Abe, they want to kill Abe right now.
Some people actually took action.
The day after returning home, Abe's house was rushed into by a group of masked men. They carried guns and grenades and killed everyone they saw.
As soon as Abe came out of the bedroom, he was hit by more than a dozen bullets and fell to the ground dead.
In fact, there were only four hours left before he was poisoned. If these people didn't come, Abe would have died. These people only allowed Abe to die four hours earlier.
But in this way, no one will know about the poisoning in Touman.
"Sir, Abe is dead."
"Did the poison develop in advance?" Touman asked with his eyes closed.
He knew the timing of this poison, and he had used this poison to kill many people before.
"No, someone rushed to his house and killed him and most of the family. The police have already gone. It is said that there are only three people alive, and they are all servants."
His head was startled, but he didn't open his eyes.
After a while, he suddenly smiled. No matter who did it, it was equivalent to helping him, and he would be grateful.
Also helped Ishihara Hiroshi.
The cabinet and Saijo also received news of Abe's murder.
"Who did it?"
Saijo angrily shouted that Abe was an important chess piece in his fight against Ishihara Hiroshi. Because of this chess piece, Tuhara specially sent a telegram to blame him, blaming him for letting Abe go without consultation.
Saijo didn't care about Tuhara's blame and had already let him go. Who could do anything to him?
But he didn't expect that the chess piece he released after offending someone would become useless so quickly.
"We are investigating, but it is not clear yet."
Sakai was the one who came to report. He did not dare to talk nonsense. In fact, his first suspicion was Tou Mitsuru. After all, Tou Mitsuru had such power.
Tou Mitsuru valued Ishihara Hiroshi more. After Abe came out, he went to Tou Mitsuru's house. If he told the truth, Tou Mitsuru would probably attack him for Ishihara Hiroshi.
"Check, check it out immediately."
Saijo roared that this case was not difficult to investigate. The murderer was indeed masked, but they left many traces at the scene.
Footprints, bullet casings, and someone heard their name being called.
The police station is not all idiots. Abe himself is a big shot and was released by Saijo. Soon they found out the truth.
The murderer was found, but the police didn't dare to ask.
It was reported step by step and finally reached Saijo's hands.
"Kido's retainer?"
Saijo frowned. Kido was not an ordinary person. He was a close minister of the emperor, and he was able to become the prime minister. Kido helped a lot.
It sounds like they are on the same front.
How could the people from Kido assassinate Abe and kill his entire family?
Saijo immediately remembered that Kido had a nephew in the Liaison Department who was previously a minister. Because he did not send money to Abe, Abe found evidence that he was embezzling and perverting the law and arrested him.
Later, there was an accident in the prison, and Kido's nephew died along with many repeat offenders.
The prisoners in the prison rioted and snatched the guards' weapons. Many of them were beaten to death. Some people said that the riot was deliberately instigated by Abe, who wanted these people to die to prevent them from causing trouble for him when they returned home.
After being arrested, Abe admitted that he had indeed sent someone to do it.
Those who had relatives who died at the hands of Abe were all looking forward to his death. This time someone took action, and many people clapped their hands and cheered.
"Sir, do you want to arrest someone?"
Sakai asked cautiously, and Saijo glared at him: "What are you trying to catch?"
The person must not be arrested. Maybe Kido is the mastermind, and Kido is his nobleman. What does it matter if he arrests Kido?
Saijo regretted it again.
He should listen to Tuhara's advice and explain clearly to these people why he let Abe go.
It's a pity that he thinks he is noble. He is the prime minister and the first person under the emperor, so he does not need any explanation.
Besides, there were more than one person to explain. He couldn't call them all together and explain the situation to them, otherwise others would think he was afraid of these people.
Now that Abe is dead, it can be seen that it was indeed a bad move for him to let Abe go rashly.
The matter has come to this, there is no point in regretting.
"Immediately spread the word to the outside world that Abe's gold was stolen by Ishihara Hiroshi, and that Ishihara Hiroshi stole all of Abe's gold."
Saijo will not stop here. Abe is dead, but what Ishihara Hiroshi has done cannot be denied.
Sakai bowed his head and retreated.
The next day, senior officials in Tokyo began to spread a rumor that the person who stole Abe's gold was none other than his junior brother Ishihara Hiroshi.
Not only did Hiroshi Ishihara steal more than 500 gold bricks that Abe earned in China, but the money that Abe later amassed like crazy was also stolen by Hiroshi Ishihara. What Abe brought back from China were fake gold bricks.
Rumors have noses and eyes, and gossip is common around the world, especially high-level gossip.
The rumor spread quickly, and Touman received the news before noon.
"Find someone to tell you that Abe was killed by Ishihara Hiroshi."
Touman ordered the butler. The butler was slightly startled and didn't understand why the master said that Ishihara Hiroshi killed Abe.
This matter has been clearly investigated and Kido's actions have nothing to do with Ishihara Hiroshi.
"Go ahead."
Touman did not explain, but the housekeeper did as he said. Soon, there were several versions of the rumor.
In addition to Ishihara Hiroshi being the murderer, there are also rumors that Touma sent someone to kill Abe.
It was even rumored that he was the one killed by Saijo.
There are various versions, and ordinary melon-eaters have no idea which one is true and which one is false.
In Shanghai, Chu Lingyun received a message from Japan.
Saijo trapped himself in a cocoon and wanted to cause trouble for himself, so he deliberately released Abe, but was killed by Kido's men.
The truth of the matter cannot be hidden from him, he knows it very well.
Similarly, anyone who is truly powerful also understands that he is not the one who kills people.
As for the fact that he stole Abe's gold, not everyone believed it. After all, there were too many rumors and no evidence.
You can listen to it, but few people believe it completely.
This was Tou Man's real purpose. The housekeeper didn't understand, but Chu Lingyun knew very well that Tou Man had spread some rumors to deliberately confuse the public.
Putting these true and false things together will make everyone instinctively disbelief.
Chu Lingyun didn't care, so what if he believed it?
It was Abe who killed their relatives, not him.
These people are not stupid and come to make enemies of themselves rashly.
Moreover, even if there is no grudge, if Ishihara Hiroshi is in trouble, these people will come up to bite him as long as they find an opportunity. The truth that Huaibi is guilty is universally accepted.
His wealth is attractive enough to these people.
Chu Lingyun understood everything.
Time passed by slowly, and soon it was the end of February.
The Chinese Spring Festival has passed, and Chu Lingyun cannot be with his parents again. There are many things going on in Shanghai, and he cannot go back for the time being.
The former manager of the Tianjin branch was an ordinary person promoted by Chu Lingyun in order to encourage reporting. Unfortunately, his ability was limited. Suddenly he was promoted from an ordinary employee to a branch manager, and he was unable to control the situation.
What's more, he is Chinese.
Hiroshi Ishihara was not too satisfied with him, so he transferred him back to the headquarters and temporarily served in the Supervision Department. He was not demoted in rank and made him the deputy director of the Supervision Department.
After all, they are typical, so they should be kept well.
Gu Sen was appointed at the critical moment and was sent to Tianjin to serve as Tianjin's manager.
Guangzhou Bay, Hayakawa Ping was walking on the deserted street.
This place used to be very prosperous. The smuggled goods shipped to China by Hayakawa Taira Yagyu Trading Company were unloaded here and then shipped to the mainland through Guangxi.
Maritime transportation was completely blocked by the empire. Because Guangzhou Bay was occupied by France, France was occupied by Germany and became a puppet government, which in turn became their ally.
Because of the French relationship, this became the only trading port in the south of China.
At its busiest time, there are more than 160 shops on just one street.
These shops are all owned by well-known trading houses, and there are many ships coming and going every day, creating a group of wealthy merchants.
Unfortunately, after the 21st of this month, this prosperity will no longer exist.
Japan and France signed an agreement to jointly defend Guangzhou Bay. It was said to be public, but in fact it was completely occupied by Japan. After they occupied it, they naturally did not allow other merchant ships to continue trading with the Chinese.
Unable to trade, those trading houses closed their doors and waited for the future.
"Just these few. The location here is the best. Also, go get more warehouses."
Hayakawa Hei circled around and finally selected a few of the largest shops. Other merchants were driven away, but Japanese merchants were not, especially Yagyu Trading Company, who could move here unimpeded.
"yes."
Hayakawa Ping's men took the order, while Zhang Chenghuan stood quietly beside him.
Zhang Chenghuan is a member of the war situation team. He brought Hayakawa Hei to Shanghai and has been by Hayakawa Hei's side ever since. Tu Yuan once investigated Zhang Chenghuan but failed to find out the truth.
The fake resume that Chu Lingyun made for him was perfect.
Hayakawa Ping is an important chess piece of Chu Lingyun. It can be seen from his code name that Chu Lingyun sent people across the country to find a person who looked very similar to Zhang Chenghuan, and his past became Zhang Chenghuan's past.
It's strange that Tu Yuan can find out the truth.
On the surface, Zhang Chenghuan is Hayakawa Hei's savior, so Hayakawa Hei has great trust in him. However, he is Chinese and does not participate much in the business. He is mostly used as a guard.
He was not an important person to begin with, so Tu Yuan didn't notice anything unusual, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
After confirming the shop, Hayakawa Ping returned to his residence, Zhang Chenghuan was still with him.
When only the two of them were left, Hei Hayakawa said softly: "Tell you, Team Leader Chu, we can double the cargo volume, especially rubber, gasoline and other supplies."
Hayakawa Hei is equivalent to an imperial merchant in ancient China. Guangzhou Bay is not under the jurisdiction of the dispatched army, so you can do whatever you want.
"good."
Zhang Chenghuan nodded, having been with Hayakawa Hei for so long, he had long admired Hayakawa Hei.
No wonder the team leader was so wary of him, Hei Hayakawa was indeed an extremely smart person.
There are not many people Zhang Chenghuan admires, including the team leader, Team Leader Zhao, and the rest is Hei Hayakawa.
He knew very well that if the team leader hadn't gotten too many handles on Hayakawa Hei and controlled him to death, Hayakawa Hei wouldn't be so honest.
People like Hei Hayakawa are really too shrewd.
Chongqing, Military Command Headquarters.
Seeing the message forwarded by Chu Lingyun, Boss Dai happily slapped the table.
"Great. The chess piece Fatty is becoming more and more important. Ling Yun has a good vision."
Hayakawa Taira said that after occupying Guangzhou Bay, he would be able to double the amount of cargo. No matter how much these urgently needed strategic materials were, they would need them all.
And the price is very high. This time Boss Dai can make a lot of money from it.
Secretary Qi smiled and said nothing.
Boss Dai has made a lot of money through smuggling over the years. No one knows how much money he has, but Secretary Qi does know a little bit.
After all, a lot of goods are shipped out through Secretary Qi’s hands.
Among the Fruit Party, Boss Dai is definitely one of the richest men.
In addition to making money, this is also a great achievement.
There happened to be a great achievement to be reported, so Boss Dai asked for a car to go to the old man's mansion.
"Fishermen, is there any good news?"
Seeing Dai Yunong, the old man smiled. He could guess from Dai Yunong's expression that the military commander had something good to report.
"Your appointment is wise. As expected, nothing can be hidden from your eyes. There is indeed good news. Fatty has expanded the market and will be able to double the strategic materials given to us in the future."
Boss Dai replied with a smile, don't underestimate the goods provided by Hayakawa Hei.
Nowadays, many factories in Guojun are waiting for him to produce raw materials. If the Nanyang transportation line is cut off, many factories will stop work and production.
The front line will also not receive adequate logistical support.
"It is indeed good news." The old man was very happy.
"Another thing is that the Loyalty and Salvation Army in Hubei ambushed a Japanese transport team the day before yesterday, killing a Japanese captain and three other officers. They killed and wounded more than 300 Japanese soldiers and seized a lot of weapons and food.
.”
Boss Dai took the opportunity to report his merits, but even he himself may not know how much of this credit is.
When the people below reported this, he came to report to the old man.
"good very good."
The old man was even more happy and said two good words in a row. During the years of the All-out Resistance War, the military commander had made a lot of contributions. There were not many frontal battlefields, but the Loyalty and National Salvation Army often attacked Japanese outposts and transport convoys.
The Loyalty and National Salvation Army is not a frontline force, it is used as a guerrilla force.
The old man didn't have high expectations for them. It was not easy to achieve such results.
"Commissioner, they have made great achievements this time. How many officers need to be promoted, do you think?"
"No problem, verify their credit and approve it immediately."
The old man was very happy, and he immediately agreed because he was just a school official.
Not to mention school officers, he has also given a lot to general officers over the years. War is different from peacetime. If you do not reward them for their military exploits, it will chill the hearts of these soldiers.
"Thank you for your seat."
Boss Dai bowed his head and thanked the old man. The old man suddenly asked: "How many people are there in the Loyalty and National Salvation Army now?"
Boss Dai raised his head, a little surprised, but he did not dare to conceal the old man's question: "Returning to the committee, there are currently more than 50,000 people in the Loyalty and National Salvation Army."
"Is that much?"
The committee members were slightly surprised. When the Rangers were first established, there were only more than 10,000 people. Dai Yunong did not expect that the number of people would increase several times in recent years.
He didn't know that Boss Dai didn't tell the full number of people.
In addition to the Loyalty and Salvation Army, there are also some unregistered members. In the past two years, he has become very close to the American intelligence agency, and Americans admire him very much.
He asked American agents to help train them, and a large number of them had not yet been integrated into the army.
If all of them are recruited, the number will exceed 60,000.
In addition, he continues to recruit new soldiers, striving to build the Loyalty and Salvation Army into an elite force that can not only fight tough battles, but also be proficient in assassination, intelligence, demolition and other special operations.
"Committee, the Loyalty and National Salvation Army is behind enemy lines. It's difficult for them, but there are also many people who support us. Some people took the initiative to join in the fight against Japan, and the number increased."
Boss Dai explained softly, and the old man nodded: "Yes, let them work hard and make more military exploits."
"Yes, delegate, don't worry, I will convey your words to the letter and urge them to work hard and achieve more military exploits."
Boss Dai stood up straight. The old man smiled and asked Dai Yunong to leave after finishing his report.
Boss Dai didn't notice that the old man's last smile was a little forced.
After he left, the old man stood up, walked to the window and looked outside.
There are more than 50,000 people in the Loyalty and National Salvation Army, and there are now more than 30,000 people in the military system, which adds up to almost 90,000.
Is the power in Dai Yunong's hands a little too strong?
This does not include the peripheral people who serve them. Counting those people, the number is even greater.
The old man thought of Minister Chen's small report some time ago. Dai Yunong was rich and had so much power, so he could be restricted appropriately.
Minister Chen is Old Ghost Xu's cousin. When he said these things, the old man didn't pay attention.
Dean Kong once mentioned that Dai Yunong has a lot of gold in his hands. If they can send this gold to the national treasury, they can do more things.
Dean Kong doesn't want to wear the boss's gold for nothing, he will buy it with money.
The money taken is naturally legal tender.
The old man also didn't care at the time. He knew the situation of French currency better than anyone else. Too many were printed and their value kept depreciating. Using this kind of money to exchange for the gold of his subordinates was no different from robbery.
It is a pity that the national treasury is weak. In order to maintain the operation of the Fruit Party and maintain its power, it must keep printing these banknotes.
When it's printed, it's money, and they can use it directly.
After thinking for a while, the old man shook his head. Dai Yunong was very obedient. This was a critical period of the War of Resistance. The role of military commanders was irreplaceable, so he could not be chilled for the time being.
However, the old man kept the power of the military commander in mind.
Boss Dai happily returned to the army. The fat man had made great contributions, but it was a pity that he could not be rewarded.
In terms of money, Fatty is not short of money, and he does not have any military rank. He is a peripheral Japanese and is not considered a real military commander. The person who controls him is Chu Lingyun.
As for Chu Lingyun, there is no way to reward him.
Remember these achievements for them first, and compensate them later when there is an opportunity.
In Shanghai, Mitsui Boss finally sorted out the affairs of the Liaison Department.
What Abe left behind was a mess. He dismissed six of the twelve ministers and sent them all back to the country. They were asked to buy whatever positions they wanted back home and spend their own money.
Anyway, we don't want them here anymore.
The six ministers who were dismissed breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the crimes they committed, it would not be an exaggeration to shoot them.
Fortunately, Mitsui is not Abe and he is easier to talk to. He only dismissed them and did not investigate them.
If the investigation is really strict, everyone will go to jail.
Half of the ministers were withdrawn, and more of the division chiefs and team leaders below were withdrawn. Mitsui came to make a big change. His family had a big business, he had enough people on hand, and with the support of Saijo, he was not afraid of shortage of manpower.
They won't be willing to let these people join the army and fight, but they can be allowed to serve as officials in the Liaison Department, and they will be very enthusiastic and proactive.
Mitsui can be used by people.
With such a drastic move, Mitsui Hiroshi replaced almost half of the officials, and finally took control of the Liaison Department.
"Has the news gotten out?"
In the office, Mitsui asked his secretary Horibe Kazuo.
"Everything has spread, and now it is spreading all over Shanghai."
"Very good. Pay close attention to the direction of public opinion. If there are other rumors, clarify them immediately."
Mitsui nodded slightly. After Abe's death, the rumors created by Saijo in Japan were casually destroyed by Touman.
As for the rumors of Toman murdering people, they were the speculations of some people who thought they were smart because of the rumors about Hiroshi Ishihara.
After all, Hiroshi Ishihara was not in the country, and he was Touma's most valued disciple. This is why Touma didn't save Abe this time.
I don’t know who the fool is when he talks about Saijo. There are not many rumors about this.
"yes."
Horibe responded, Mitsui had learned lessons from the country, and this time no matter what, he had to make it clear to everyone that Toru Ishihara did not respect benevolence and righteousness, and attacked his senior brother, which eventually killed him.
Abe's gold was lost in Shanghai, and the news spread faster in Shanghai.
When the city was closed for three days, many people knew that something had happened to Abe and that his gold had been stolen. Hiroshi Ishihara helped search for it, but failed to find it.
Now it has been revealed that Hiroshi Ishihara did it himself, and with the guidance of thoughtful people, the whole of Shanghai is talking about this matter.
"Have you heard that Abe's gold was actually stolen by his junior brother Ishihara Hiroshi? No wonder it has never been found out."
In an open-air teahouse, several tea patrons were discussing in low voices.
"Dog bites dog, who cares who stole it?" one person said angrily.
"Are you crazy? Do you dare to say that and risk your life?"
The companion next to him hurriedly covered his mouth and said that it was okay. Saying dog bites dog was equivalent to scolding Ishihara Hiroshi.
Who in Shanghai doesn't know that Hiroshi Ishihara is the master of everything, and anyone who dares to scold him is simply seeking death.
"Did I say something wrong?"
After breaking away from his companion's hand, the person who just spoke still insisted that the people had great opinions on the Japanese, but they just didn't dare to speak out.
Dare to say, many of them were caught by No. 76 and eventually killed.
"It's true, I can't say that."
His companion scolded him, saying there were many people here, and if anyone reported him, he would definitely be in trouble.
The high-pressure rule of the Japanese frightens many people.
"Actually, Hiroshi Ishihara is pretty good. At least the coarse grains he sells are cheap."
One person said that they are ordinary people who are better off than the people in the slums. They have the time and ability to drink cheap big bowls of tea, but it is impossible to eat good food.
Coarse grains have always remained affordable and are their most important daily rations.
"It's not bad. He is afraid of riots. If he really wants to starve people to death, many people will definitely rebel by then."
The people who spoke still spoke with disdain. They liked to hear such rumors. The Japanese themselves were having internal strife. For them, the more Japanese people died, the better.
It would be better if they were all dead.
"Boss, there are rumors everywhere that you stole Abe's gold."
Fang Shiyi came to Chu Lingyun's office. He also heard the rumblings outside. Almost everyone was discussing this matter, and he couldn't even think about it.
"Mitsui is only good at this, so don't pay attention to them."
Chu Lingyun smiled and shook his head. Mitsui Bosi took action and still used Abe's incident to attack him. It's a pity that this is China.
His rumors are useless. As a Chinese, he understands the thoughts of the people very well.
Many people were just watching the show, and the rich people had been scolding him for a long time, but he didn't care at all.
As for the Japanese, Shanghai is basically under the control of the members of the literary society. These members are eager for him to have more money so that they can help them operate and rise to the top.
"But it's detrimental to your reputation, why don't we do something?"
Fang Shiyi frowned. After all, Abe is Ishihara Hiroshi's senior brother. The two of them usually have such a good relationship on the surface, so Ishihara Hiroshi's attack on Abe cannot be justified in any way.
"There is no need to do anything. Mitsui Hiroshi is a bit like his eldest nephew Mitsui Amu. Let him be happy for a few days first."
Chu Lingyun shook his head. Mitsui Bosi was a bit like his eldest nephew Mitsui Amu. He liked to engage in conspiracies and could not get on the stage.
"yes."
Fang Shiyi stopped trying to persuade him. Ishihara Heng was very smart. Since he said so, he must have his own way.
Chu Lingyun does have his own ideas.
The 3,800 people in the Liaison Department are always a trouble. If Chu Lingyun wants to attack Mitsui Bosi, he will not target him personally, but this guard force.
Mitsui Boss is not important.
These guards are usually in the liaison department, and they can be incorporated into the army at any time when needed.
Many of them are veterans who have participated in actual combat and have Chinese blood on their hands.
If we can kill them, it will be equivalent to avenging those sacrificed soldiers.
Without enough reasons, Chu Lingyun couldn't attack them. Now Chu Lingyun was just waiting and looking for opportunities to kill them all in one fell swoop.
Without the claws and claws, Mitsui Hiroshi will be the meat on the chopping board, and he can cut it however he wants.
The rumors spread more and more fiercely, and everyone in the literary club heard about it. Except for Yamashita, Miyamoto and others, they did not dare to ask Ishihara Hiroshi directly, and asked several generals who were close to Ishihara Hiroshi.
Chu Lingyun didn't move, deliberately waited for three days, and suddenly called the members to a meeting in the literary club.
"Ishihara-kun."
Seeing Chu Lingyun come in, the members who had already gathered here stood up one after another. Now the Shanghai Literary Society is basically led by Yamashita, Miyamoto, and Takemoto.
Their status is the highest.
"Everyone, please sit down."
Chu Lingyun came to his seat and waved to them. Everyone knelt down in front of the table. Miyamoto first said: "Ishihara-kun, Mitsui Hiroshi is so abominable. He keeps creating rumors about you. If you don't respond at all, the people will probably take it for granted."
real."
Mitsui Bosi's little tricks can't be hidden from them.
"That is, let me tell you, we need to teach Mitsui Hiroshi a lesson and let him understand that this is Shanghai, not Tokyo."
Yamashita followed up and said that since he followed Ishihara Hiroshi, he has made rapid progress. Now that he is the division commander, he has become much more courageous.
Mitsui was the Prime Minister's man, so he didn't even notice it.
"Ishihara-kun, do you already have a plan?"
Takemoto asked softly. He knew Ishihara Hiroshi best, and Ishihara Hiroshi was the shrewdest person he had ever met.
He is also the person who is most unwilling to suffer losses. Mitsui Hiroshi is so targeted. It is impossible for Ishihara Hiroshi to just let it go. Ishihara Hiroshi is not very ambitious.
Among those who have offended him in the past, which one has a good ending?
"No, I asked everyone to come here today just to tell everyone not to pay attention to them."
Chu Lingyun shook his head. Now is not the time to take action. There is no point in arguing with each other. He should treat it as if it were lost and paralyze Mitsui Bosi first.
At the critical moment, as long as Chu Lingyun takes action, he will definitely be killed with one blow.
"Do nothing?"
Takemoto asked anxiously, and Chu Lingyun nodded: "No need to do anything, just carry on as usual."
"yes."
Takemoto reluctantly accepted the order. He didn't understand. Mitsui Hiroshi had bullied him to the point of being bullied. Why didn't he fight back?
If they don't do anything, they are likely to be looked down upon by Mitsui Boss.
Shanghai is Ishihara Hiroshi's territory, not Saijo's.
He didn't know that Chu Lingyun was not very interested in Mitsui Bosi. He was just a politician who would use a little conspiracy. His real target was the 3,800 guards.
Get rid of them all.
You can't say this now. The literary society is full of military officers. They have great opinions on Mitsui Hiroshi and have no prejudice against those 3,800 people.
Those people were, in fact, soldiers just like them.
Some people may even wonder if, by getting rid of Mitsui Bosi, there is no chance of bringing this group of people under his command.
After all, they are all elites.
If you can absorb it, it is equivalent to increasing your own strength.
Chu Lingyun's guess was correct. Both Yamashita and Miyamoto had this idea. Yamashita had a Class A division in his hands. If he swallowed these people, he could immediately add a very strong alliance.
Not to mention Miyamoto. The power in his hands is already weaker. If he can swallow up this regiment, even if his division is not Class A, it is not too different.
What they want is to increase their strength, while Chu Lingyun wants these people's lives. Their purpose is different and it is not appropriate to say it now.
In the special high school class, Jiang Tengkong was praised by Tuyuan.
Saijo made a bad move, but Jiang Tengkong made a great contribution by finding out the truth.
Shuijin was lucky this time, because of his merit, he was reinstated.
"The Chinese came and ordered us to cooperate. They want to rescue Thomas."
Ishida came to Jiang Tengkong's office. After Thomas was captured by Jiang Tengkong, he had been secretly detained. At first, he was worried that he would be taken away by Nayun.
After Nanyun's death, Thomas has been locked up in a prison outside.
He is not in the special higher education class.
Chu Lingyun had given orders before not to kill Thomas.
Thomas is still useful to Chu Lingyun. He has many connections in the United States and specifically asked the Japanese to detain him for a while.
The longer he is imprisoned, the more grateful he will be when he is rescued.
Chu Lingyun didn't expect to use the gift of saving his life to make Thomas sincerely serve him.
This possibility is very small.
Thomas is a politician, and it is not uncommon for people like him to stab their saviors in the back.
You must have both grace and a handle.
Jiang Tengkong had already obtained the handle. Thomas was a coward. He confessed everything when he entered the special high school. Afterwards, Jiang Tengkong interrogated him several times and he leaked many internal secrets of the United States.
It is not enough to be kind and have the right to handle.
Chu Lingyun wants to be his financial backer, rescue him and send him back to China to help him develop. He is different from Smith. He is an executive in the concession, and it will be easy for him to get up after returning.
As for his being captured, it was nothing.
He did not surrender voluntarily, but was caught. People in the United States think differently from the Chinese. If a person like him could go back, he would not be looked down upon. Instead, everyone would respect him as a hero.
"No problem, how can we cooperate?"
Jiang Tengkong agreed immediately, but Thomas didn't care.
"They will create opportunities. We can just send people to the prison to pick Thomas up."
Ishida replied that Thomas was being held in the police station jail.
There are many prisons in the police station. This one is inconspicuous and the guards are not that strict, but it is a prison after all and cannot be easily attacked. Chu Lingyun will not sacrifice his men to save Thomas.
The best way is to get Thomas out of prison and they do it on the road.
"good."
Jiang Tengkong nodded, as long as the Chinese gave him a reason, otherwise he would suddenly ask for Thomas out of nowhere, and if something happened to Thomas, not a fool would know there was something wrong.
The opportunity created by Chu Lingyun for them was very simple, let Ran Wu appear in Shanghai.
Ran Wu is a member of the army.
In fact, Thomas didn't know that Ran Wu did not belong to the military command. He only knew that he had a close relationship with Chu Lingyun, so he was naturally regarded as an agent of the military command.
Ran Wu appeared, and Jiang Tengkong had enough reasons to interrogate Thomas again.
Two days later, Shuijin came to Jiang Tengkong's office excitedly.
"Section Chief, there is a report from the previous patrol. They saw Ran Wu."
Shui Jin participated in the operation to capture Thomas and knew his confession. Ran Wu was a member of the military command and he showed up. If he were caught this time, he might be able to catch more military commander agents.
"Ran Wu?" Jiang Tengkong asked pretending to be confused.
"You forgot, when we arrested Thomas, he confessed that Ran Wu was the person assigned by Chu Lingyun to the patrol room, and Thomas specially promoted him to deputy chief inspector."
Shuijin said happily, the section chief is a noble person, and noble people often forget things. The section chief is so busy and has to deal with so many official duties every day, it is normal for him to forget someone.
"It's him, is he keeping an eye on anyone?" Jiang Tengkong asked immediately.
"No, the patrol just saw him, but I have sent people to keep an eye on the place where Ran Wu appeared. As long as he comes out again, we will definitely be able to keep an eye on him."
"Very good. You go to the scene and keep an eye on it yourself. Be sure to find Ran Wu. Send two other people to bring Thomas over. You almost forgot about this American."
Jiang Tengkong nodded. He understood that this was the opportunity the Chinese had given him. This opportunity was indeed very good. Chu Lingyun did things flawlessly. If he was given such a reason, no one would notice anything unusual.
Thomas used to have a high status, but now he is not a very important figure. Jiang Tengkong does not need to send many people, he can just take Thomas over at will.
"yes."
Shuijin took the order, but he didn't know that Ishida had been watching him to see how many people he sent to pick up the people.
There are only a few routes to pick someone up, and no matter which route he takes, the military commanders will attack him along the way.
Shuijin obeyed Jiang Tengkong's order. Jiang Tengkong asked him to send two people, so he really sent only two people and drove out in a car.
Noticing that there were only two of them, Ishida smiled.
It's okay for two people to detain one person. Thomas has been imprisoned for so long and is very weak, and his movements will be restricted.
Normally, such an escort is very safe. Unfortunately, this time it was a trap.
These two people can't come back.
"Wait, then."
After hearing Ishida's report, Jiang Tengkong showed a smile. He specifically gave Shuijin an order to go to the scene instead of asking him to pick up the person in person.
Otherwise, it is really possible for Shuijin to go by himself.
If he wants to go, he won't bring only two people with him, as this will cause trouble for the military commander's rescue.
Secondly, Mizujin has just performed a meritorious service and cannot die now, otherwise it will anger Tuyuan and increase his pressure.
There are many ways to kill Mizujin. If Toru Ishihara knows that it was Mizujin who found out the truth, he will definitely not survive.
On the way back to the special high school from prison, Shen Hanwen was leading people to observe.
The task of rescuing Thomas fell on him. It was not difficult. There was no need to let Loach come forward. Shen Hanwen had better action capabilities.
"Captain, they have arrived at Wuhua Street."
His subordinates came to report quickly. Shen Hanwen picked up the submachine gun in his hand and pulled the bolt with a click.
"Ready for action."
There were only two people in the extra-high school class, but he had twenty people prepared here. It was easy to save people, but the key was to evacuate.
He has already laid out more than one evacuation route. After leaving, they will hide in the safe house and wait for the team leader to come.
The car from the Special Higher Education Course arrived quickly.
Thomas in the back row looked gloomy. He had been imprisoned for more than a year. It was not that his family had not thought about rescuing him. The United States specifically asked the Japanese, but the Special High School denied that they had captured Thomas and did not admit that they knew Thomas' whereabouts.
The Japanese don't admit it, and the Americans can't do anything about it.
Thomas was imprisoned like this for more than a year and ate coarse grains for more than a year. He lost weight and aged a lot.
"This is."
The special agent who was driving suddenly stepped on the brakes, and a car drove out of another intersection, and they almost missed it.
"Baga, how do you drive?"
The driver stuck his head out and cursed loudly, but these words became his last words in life.
"boom."
The gunfire rang out, and he was shot in the head instantly. The agents from the combat situation group who had been prepared immediately stepped forward and killed the agent sitting in the back guarding Thomas with a few shots.
Shen Hanwen was a little depressed. He didn't even have a chance to shoot before the matter was over.
"withdraw."
Now was not the time to stop. They dragged Thomas out of the car and evacuated immediately.
Before leaving, I didn't forget to throw a few grenades into the car.
The rescue went very smoothly. They arrived at the safe house safely. As for the vehicle used in the rescue, it will be modified immediately. After that, it will not be able to see its original appearance, and it can continue to be used in the future.
Even the tires need to be replaced.
Jiang Tengkong also has a tire expert.
"Who are you and what are you doing?"
After being taken to the place, Thomas' fear was lessened. He had never seen anyone from Chu Lingyun's war team, but he had seen Liu Chengzhu and Ran Wu.
Shen Hanwen ignored him, asked someone to bring him some delicious food, and waited peacefully.
The food is really good, including roast chicken and ham.
When Thomas saw the delicious food, his eyes lit up. He immediately grabbed it with dirty hands and bit it. His mouth was filled with oil and his face turned red from choking.
For more than a year, all he ate was pig food. He had already eaten enough, and he dreamed of eating meat, and finally he got his wish.
The sound of gunfire and explosions attracted Japanese soldiers on patrol. The car was damaged by a grenade, causing a fire. They did not know the identity of the people in the car, so they called the police for an urgent investigation.
By the time the Special High School learned about it, the day lilies were already cold.
"Team leader."
When Shen Hanwen saw Chu Lingyun coming in, he immediately stood up.
"Where are the people?" Chu Lingyun nodded.
"inside."
Shen Hanwen pointed inside, and Chu Lingyun walked in. Thomas had already eaten the roast chicken and trotters, and lay there with a satisfied look on his face.
He didn't know who saved him, nor what his fate would be in the future. He couldn't control that much now. Even if he had to be executed, he would still be given a good meal.
You won't end up starving to death.
"Chu, it's you."
Thomas was shocked when he saw Chu Lingyun. He understood who saved him.
"Thomas, you are suffering."
Chu Lingyun walked over with a smile. If he had not known that he had not saved the wrong person, he would not have dared to recognize the Thomas in front of him.
The originally handsome and suave gentleman is now skinny, with a full beard and extremely messy hair. He looks even more miserable than a tramp.
"I didn't expect you to save me. You are my true friend."
Thomas started to cry. He said this from the bottom of his heart. He had no effect on Chu Lingyun. He really didn't expect that Chu Lingyun would remember him.
"I'm sorry, what happened in the concession was so sudden. I asked about it afterwards, but I didn't know where you were being held. Not long ago, I heard by chance that there was a foreigner in Erligou Prison, so I asked around. Sure enough, it was you. I'll make arrangements right away. Plan to rescue you."
Chu Lingyun comforted him. Chu Lingyun was very sinister now. He had known where Thomas was for a long time. It was his arrangement that Thomas was imprisoned until today.
This will make your face not blush and your heart not beat when you lie.
"It's okay, thank you. If it weren't for you, I might die in prison."
Thomas was still crying, crying because of the joy of rebirth. He was very confused before and had no idea how long he would be imprisoned, maybe until he died.
"Everything is over. I will find a way to send you back to China and reunite you with your family."
Chu Lingyun patted him on the back. It was not easy to send Thomas back. The United States and Japan were at war, and the sea and land were not smooth. He had to go around in a circle before he could go back.
"thanks, thanks."
Thomas was so excited that he was incoherent and kept expressing his gratitude in English.
"Chinese, boil some hot water, let Mr. Thomas take a good bath, cut his hair, trim his beard, and prepare some suitable clothes for him, including a suit, and buy some red wine."
Thomas was even more moved when Chu Lingyun gave instructions to Shen Hanwen outside.
Not only take care of him, give him new clothes, but also prepare red wine for him?
Before, he could drink every day if he wanted to. After being arrested, he had not smelled alcohol, let alone red wine, for more than a year.
It didn't take long for the hot water to be boiled and the clothes to be brought over. Someone from the war team would cut his hair and help Thomas rearrange his hair and shave his beard. When Thomas put on a well-fitting suit, a mentally unstable Yankee reappeared. .
"Very good. No one who has seen you would recognize you like this. I will arrange for you to board the ship in a few days."
Chu Lingyun did not leave and kept waiting. Thomas was still useful to him. Chu Lingyun never made bets in one place. Smith was his partner. He also won over other governors.
Thomas' future role will be in the U.S. military.
He knew a lot of people in the US military.
"Okay, Chu, I'll listen to you."
Thomas kept nodding. He couldn't help but listen. This was Shanghai, not the United States. He was an escapee. Without Chu Lingyun's help, he wouldn't be able to return home.
