In the process of Ishihara Hiroshi's attack on the special high school, the time came to 44 years.
The special higher education courses in several cities suffered heavy losses, and Ishihara Hiroshi's counterattack finally came. However, Shanghai's higher education courses, because they took refuge in time, were not liquidated, and everyone was still busy with their own monitoring.
"Professor, you are still smart."
Shuijin came to Jiang Tengkong's office and said fearfully.
Tianjin, Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Wuhan special higher education courses were successively liquidated by Hiroshi Ishihara, and many people died. Basically, all the section leaders and team leaders were either killed or arrested. Only a few were relatively honest and did not care about things.
The team leader survived.
If Jiang Tengkong hadn't taken refuge with Ishihara Hiroshi early on, they would have had no chance of escaping in Shanghai.
As the number one and two figures in Shanghai's special higher education program, he and his section chief were bound to be unlucky.
"He who knows the current affairs is a hero. Just work with peace of mind. Nothing will happen to us in a short time."
Jiang Tengkong smiled. He had surrendered once, and there was no psychological burden on him to surrender to Ishihara Hiroshi again. He had reported this matter to the Chinese, and the Chinese agreed, so he had nothing to worry about.
Save your life to have a future.
The Japanese New Year has just passed, and Jiang Tengkong finally found time to meet Chu Chu.
If it weren't for a series of things, he would have met the person he longed for long ago.
Through the photos, Chu Chu is now a little fatter, but her overall spirit has become better than before.
Chu Chu no longer resented herself and understood that he had no choice but to do so.
During his absence, Mizujin reported to Alchemist Yi on his behalf. They were not to take the initiative to do anything, and all obeyed Ishihara Hiroshi's orders.
Even if Chinese agents are discovered, they must be reported to Ishihara Hiroshi before making a decision.
Jiang Tengkong understood that Ishihara Hiroshi was not very interested in Chinese agents, at least he could delay it for a while.
In early 1944, the Guo army launched a counterattack against the Japanese army in Burma to ensure that Burma, the lifeline, could continue to transport all necessary supplies to them.
Smuggling alone is not enough. After all, the quantity smuggled is limited and cannot meet the huge domestic demand. Sea transportation is blocked, so the road from India to Myanmar is particularly important.
Tuyuan finally realized something was wrong.
Several places suffered heavy losses in succession, but nothing happened in Shanghai, which aroused Tuyuan's suspicion. After investigation, he found that many senior officials in Shanghai had moved their families to China before.
This is a very abnormal signal.
Tuyuan summoned his confidants, a small number of twenty people, and ordered them to sneak into Shanghai and secretly investigate the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course.
If possible, check up on Hiroshi Ishihara's current situation.
Twenty people were not many, so it was just right.
Sending people to Shanghai was useless. The more people there were, the more likely they would be exposed. They were discovered and dealt with by Hiroshi Ishihara.
Shanghai was said to be the territory of the empire, but in fact, his people had a harder time in Shanghai than in the general Guotong District. At this time, Tuyuan regretted it very much. Becoming a grudge against Hiroshi Ishihara was the biggest mistake he had ever made in his life.
Even if the two parties cannot become their own people because of their different ideals, they can still maintain a good relationship as before.
At least Ishihara Hiroshi won't get in the way of whatever he does.
If it is really beneficial to the empire, Ishihara Hiroshi might even help him.
It's good now. Fire and water are incompatible. If he dares to send people over, Ishihara Hiroshi will clean it up for him.
Mitsui Amu has been in trouble.
Mitsui Aki was originally one of his people. He had been fighting among himself in Shanghai and his achievements were not outstanding. This angered Toru Ishihara, who promoted Nagumo to his position and withdrew Mitsui.
If he was not from the Mitsui family, he would have no chance of leaving the Special High School.
The Mitsui family asked him to investigate Ishihara Toru, and they indeed chose the right person. Mitsui Amu has certain abilities, but unfortunately he is too far behind Ishihara Toru and is no match for Ishihara Toru.
The stupid Mitsui family actually let him contact people who were close to Mitsui Hiroshi.
Do you really regard Hiroshi Ishihara as a kind-hearted person and won’t he settle the scores later?
Isn’t there still a small number of people he has to deal with afterwards?
The Mitsui family's affairs have nothing to do with Tuhara, but Toru Ishihara's attacks on special higher education courses in various places made him very passive and seriously affected their work efficiency.
Especially Wuhan Super High School, they shoulder the important task of dispatching spies to Chongqing, Changsha and other places.
All this work has now stopped.
They were caught by the gendarmerie, and some of the arrangements they had made may have been leaked.
If the Chinese get it, not only will future work not be carried out, but all the previous efforts will be wasted, which will be a huge loss to the empire.
Toru Ishihara did not consider the interests of the empire at all and attacked important intelligence agencies on the front line, which really made Tuhara angry.
Tuhara protested to Saijo, but unfortunately Saijo didn't have the time to care about these matters at the moment. He suppressed the matter to the base camp and stopped interfering immediately.
Continuous wars were unfavorable, Saijo suffered internal and external troubles, and troubles continued.
His troubles were far from over. On January 5th, a staff officer named Ruobin from the Nanjing Expedition Army Staff suddenly spoke publicly to many officers. He did not encourage these officers to fight for the empire, but told them that they needed to reflect.
He believed that it was impossible to win the war against China, and that continuing the war would lead the empire into an unknown abyss.
He used himself as an example, saying that as a Japanese, he should make a deep introspection about China's affairs and wrote a book specifically.
This book was obtained by Chinese and American journalists, reported extensively, and was even published in Japan.
The book is full of remarks about the injustice of Japan's war, Japan's inevitable defeat, and "treasonous" remarks such as making peace with China as soon as possible and withdrawing from China in order to save Japan.
How dare someone dare to openly oppose the empire and be a soldier? How can it be so?
Saijo was about to order the execution of the soldier, but fortunately Sakai stopped him in time.
Saijo's orders are useless, and no one will carry out the orders he gives.
The reason is very simple. Ruobin is Chongren's pseudonym. He is a member of the royal family, not an ordinary person.
Saijo was dumbfounded. With so many things going on, he had really forgotten who Ruobin was. But why would an imperial royal family object so openly?
Doesn't he know the consequences of doing this?
This was completely against his grandfather, father and brother. It was not only treasonous, but also simply forgetful of his ancestors.
It was a pity that he couldn't deal with it, so Saijo reported it to Ikuto.
Yu Ren also has a headache for this younger brother.
How could he do such a thing? What on earth did he go through in China?
He must not kill him, so Yu Ren immediately ordered Zhong Ren to return to his country and confiscate all his banned books on the market.
Newspapers were not allowed to report it, and broadcasters were not allowed to mention it.
In Japan, this incident was quickly suppressed. It did not happen on their territory, and it did not have a particularly big impact on them.
Shigeto's purpose of making more Chinese people sober through books was ruined by his brother's actions.
But he has no regrets.
Last year he came across this book by chance. It was a book by a great man. It talked about China's combat strategy against Japan. It listed many of Japan's shortcomings in detail. If it fights for a long time, China will win.
He read it relatively late, five years after the book was published.
The development in the past five years was almost exactly as described in the book. Although the Japanese achieved temporary victory, they had no chance of completely defeating China.
He also knew that many senior Japanese generals had also read this book and made targeted arrangements, but all ended in failure.
He admired this great man very much. Even five years later, he still could not think of so much, and he could not do anything about the policies and strategies in the book.
In the end, he made a bold move and wrote a book himself to influence more Japanese soldiers, hoping that they could see through the essence and stop sacrificing in vain and making the future situation more and more uncontrollable.
Now it is a matter of reconciliation, a peaceful solution, and what is being given up is just territory.
Once Japan declines, it will be completely defeated, and it is unknown whether the mainland can be saved.
Besides, he really couldn't stand the cruel behavior of the Japanese army.
In particular, he had seen with his own eyes that in order to practice bayonet and courage, some people used living Chinese people as targets. The scene was so cruel that he couldn't bear to look at it.
The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny.
This book caused him to be recalled to the country, and it was temporarily impossible for him to return to China.
Shanghai train station.
Kumigu stepped off the train, feeling dissatisfied. The second-class carriage was not comfortable. He wanted to sit in the first-class carriage, but unfortunately the section chief did not allow him.
This time he led a team to Shanghai, mainly to investigate the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course, and secondarily to investigate Ishihara Hiroshi.
If there is really a problem with the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course, his high profile will put him in great danger.
Kumeko's rank is not high, he has the rank of lieutenant colonel. Kumeko is his surname, not his given name. There are not many three-character surnames in Japan. The previous one was Hasegawa.
The reason why Tuyuan sent him to lead the team was mainly because he had never been to Shanghai, and at the same time, no one in the Shanghai Special Higher Education School had ever seen him.
This is basically the case for everyone who comes to Shanghai this time.
Kumegu took four people with him, and the twenty people sneaked into Shanghai into four groups. The last group carried two radio stations, one inside the city and one outside the city, to ensure that they could contact the headquarters in time.
"Let's go, find a hotel first."
They came to Shanghai in the name of Japanese scholars. They wanted to rent several safe houses in Shanghai as soon as possible, and now they can only stay in hotels.
It can't be a particularly good hotel. The Youth Gang in Shanghai is also under the control of Ishihara Hiroshi.
Thinking of this, Kumigu scolded him. It was clearly the territory of the empire, but the soldiers of their empire came here secretly. Hiroshi Ishihara was the biggest cancer in the empire. His Majesty was deceived by him, so he should be eliminated as soon as possible.
It's a pity that he can't make the decision, and now he still has to guard against Ishihara Hiroshi.
This time he wants to find out all the evidence of Hiroshi Ishihara's crimes and ask the chief section chief to tell His Majesty not to be deceived by Hiroshi Ishihara again and to execute this scum as soon as possible.
Tuhara didn't choose the right person this time.
There was nothing he could do. There were a lot of people in the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course. If they sent people they had met, they would be easily detected. Let alone investigating, the people might disappear for no reason.
After the five people settled in, Kumigu immediately arranged for people to follow and investigate near the Special High School to see what they were doing and whether they were really hiding inside and afraid to go out.
"Team leader, four strangers appeared outside. They seem to be watching us coming in and out."
One day later, the Special High School agents hurriedly walked into Shuijin's office. Shuijin frowned. They were walking on a tightrope. They paid great attention to their own safety. They were tight on the outside and tight on the inside. Secret sentries were placed in all places around them where their situation could be found.
Including far away intersections.
"Have they been identified?"
Shuijin asked, while his men shook their heads: "They went back last night, and came here again this morning. They stayed in a hotel, and there were five people registered together. They were said to be Japanese literati who came to Shanghai to travel. They were from Peiping, but their accents were different.
It's from the northeast."
northeast?
Shui Jin probably guessed who they were. Special higher education courses all over the country had suffered heavy losses recently. It seemed that the chief section chief had suspected them and specially sent someone to investigate.
"Keep an eye on them, take all their photos, find out their exact number, inform the people in the field not to come back, and the people in the class not to go out, and wait until the section chief comes back before making any decisions."
Shuijin ordered that Jiang Tengkong had not been here recently, and even if they were really people from the headquarters, as long as they did not come directly to the door, Shuijin could not do much for the time being.
However, he will report this matter to Fang Shiyi first. This is what the section chief told him before leaving. Everything must be reported to Fang Shiyi.
Tu Yuan never expected that the people he sent would be so reckless and go directly to keep a close eye on them as soon as they arrived in Shanghai.
After their photos were taken, the Shanghai Special Higher Education School had a way to verify their identities.
"yes."
His subordinates immediately received orders that Shuijin could not go out directly. There were people of unknown origin outside who were watching them. He could easily be spotted if he went out rashly.
Although he can get rid of the person who is following him, once he does so, the other party will confirm that he has a guilty conscience.
If they are not here tonight, let the people outside speak to Secretary Fang first, and he will go over to report in the evening.
"You said that the headquarters may send people to check you. So far you have found five?"
In the evening, Fang Shiyi had been waiting for Shuijin. He knew that Jiang Tengkong went out and reported to them before leaving.
The reason Jiang Tengkong used was that he had a hidden disease. He found out that there was a famous doctor in Jiangxi who could treat his disease. This disease was difficult for him to talk about, so he told them.
It's even worse to ask doctors to come to Shanghai. With such a big fanfare, everyone will know about it soon.
He offered to let people from Ishihara Trading Company follow him, and he would never run away.
Ishihara Hiroshi was very generous. Not only did he not send anyone, he also gave him travel expenses, asking him to go there as soon as possible and come back as soon as possible.
Ishihara Hiroshi knows better than anyone what Jiang Tengkong is going to do.
What's the hidden illness? He's going to see his sweetheart.
In order to see Chu Chu, it would be difficult for him to fabricate such a disease.
"Yes, I suspect there are more than five of them. Now we are targeting them. No matter how many people there are, we will definitely be able to get them out this time. But if we attack them, our identity will be exposed."
Shui Jin said softly that all the people from the headquarters who came to investigate them were dead, and Tu Yuan was not a fool to know that they had rebelled.
"You go back first. I will report this matter to the boss tomorrow and see what the boss says. Don't make any changes until Jiang Tengkong comes back."
Fang Shiyi thought for a moment, and then ordered that they are all people who do things, and it depends on the boss in the end how to arrange it.
If the boss doesn't care that Tu Yuan knows this, he can get rid of these people at any time.
The special agents of the Special High School deserve to die no matter how many times they die.
During this period, Ishihara Hiroshi frequently attacked the special high school class, but he was extremely happy. It was really satisfying for the Japanese to deal with their minions on their own without the help of their own people.
"yes."
Shuijin took the order and left. As soon as Chu Lingyun arrived at Shiyuan Trading Company the next day, Fang Shiyi came to report the situation provided by Shuijin yesterday.
"They must be people from Tuyuan. These people are finally here."
Chu Lingyun smiled and said that last time he came back from Japan and conveyed Yu Ren's instructions. A group of Japanese experts in the laboratory were very motivated and had made good progress recently.
There is a possibility of a breakthrough right before our eyes.
After all, they have a reference. Although they cannot restore the real mass-produced formula, it can give them inspiration.
Now that Tuyuan's people have arrived, let's take care of them together so that Tuyuan can't confirm the situation of Shanghai's special higher education courses and suffer the loss of being dumb at the same time.
Chu Lingyun could not give an order to the Super High School to investigate the laboratory to attract people from Tuyuan, otherwise once the laboratory was bombed, it would arouse the suspicion of many people, especially Jiang Tengkong.
This little problem can't trouble Chu Lingyun.
Loach received the order and prepared to bomb the laboratory of Ishihara Trading Company.
Loach had already known the laboratory of Shiyuan Trading Company clearly. He knew all about the terrain map and the guard situation. Moreover, when it was originally built, Chu Lingyun deliberately left a secret passage.
After this secret tunnel is destroyed by bombing, it can be turned into a tunnel dug by the military commander.
It's not difficult to blow up a laboratory, the important thing is timing.
We must follow the team leader's orders and wait for the secret agents from the Special High School Class to arrive in Shanghai before bombing. As long as their corpses still look good, they will become the best scapegoats.
Take a bite of Tuyuan first and then talk.
Even if no one believes it, it can still be the reason for the team leader to continue to attack Tuyuan. It is an indisputable fact that his people have appeared in the pharmaceutical factory.
Kumigu's second group of men arrived, and he immediately stepped up his investigation of the Super High School.
On the one hand, it is surveillance, and on the other hand, it is sending people to actively inquire about the recent situation of the special high school.
For example, have they taken any actions or heard any rumors?
It's not that ordinary people don't know everything, they will also know if there is any trouble, especially the police, they know the most things.
If you give them some money, those policemen will sell all their ancestors for eighteen generations.
These policemen work for the empire, and are considered traitors in the eyes of other Chinese people. They no longer care about face, all they want is money.
You can find out anything if you give me money.
"Team leader, they have five more people here, and they are asking about our situation. Some people went to the teahouse, some bribed the police, and some were trying to get close to the garbage collector."
As soon as Kumigu's people arrived, they were discovered by the people from the Special High School. They were all agents, and they were from the same school. Even if they had never met before, they were familiar with each other's methods.
"The garbage collector?"
Shui Jin was a little surprised. What were they doing with the garbage collector? Soon, Shui Jin realized that they were looking for the garbage collector because they wanted to ask what was in the garbage in the extra-high school.
A lot can be inferred from garbage.
But these are all trails, and now their every move is under their noses, and these people can't afford to make any trouble.
"Yes, our people haven't asked yet. I don't know what they asked."
His subordinates reported, and Mizujin shook his head: "Don't worry, they can't find out anything. Let them investigate first, how to deal with them, and wait for Master Ishihara's order."
This is Shanghai, and they are working for Hiroshi Ishihara.
In their eyes, these people from the headquarters are like ants, they can crush them to death with just a finger.
"yes."
His subordinates took the order, while Shui Jin calmly waited for the news.
Two days later, Kumigu's third group of men arrived in Shanghai. After they arrived, Kumigu immediately assigned them to the dock, literary club, Ishihara Trading Company and other places.
He was so courageous that he even dared to send people to literary societies and business houses.
Shuijin immediately sent someone to report the latest situation to Fang Shiyi, while Chu Lingyun sneered. These people were so evil that every time they checked on him, they checked the dock first.
Since everything at the dock is on display, are you afraid they will investigate?
Those were indeed contraband, but he had all the legal procedures, the headquarters endorsed him, and the garrisons everywhere helped him transport them.
After walking around like this, these are not contraband, at least on the surface there is no problem.
Just check it, let them check it as they please.
The next step is to bring them to the laboratory.
Now that they had monitored the business, it was much easier. Chu Lingyun went to the laboratory more often, at least once every three days.
He has a suitable reason to go now. A breakthrough in the laboratory is imminent. It is normal for him to care more.
Usually, if Chu Lingyun doesn't go, he will ask Fang Shiyi to go to the laboratory on his behalf.
The fourth group of Kumigu people finally arrived in Shanghai with the radio, and at the same time they also noticed something unusual about Toru Ishihara.
"You said that Ishihara Hiroshi and his secretary go to the laboratory almost every day?"
Kumegu asked his subordinates, who immediately nodded: "Yes, I go there almost every day. They seem to attach great importance to the laboratory."
"Can you not pay attention to it? It is a bridge for them to communicate with His Majesty."
Kumeko snorted coldly. Before coming, the chief section chief once told him about Ishihara Hiroshi's situation.
He is extremely smart and good at wining over and buying people's hearts. He has more than 200 officers under his command, all of whom are led by him. There are also a few henchmen who work hard for Ishihara Hiroshi.
They didn't listen to anyone's orders, only Ishihara Hiroshi's.
These are just the surface. Behind the scenes, Hiroshi Ishihara was ruthless and countless people died at his hands. Whether in Shanghai or other places, the bodies were piled high, totaling nearly 10,000 people.
In addition to the commercial business, grain and smuggling business, Ishihara Hiroshi's most important thing is the laboratory.
It was precisely because of this laboratory that he pleased His Majesty, who made him look upon him differently and gave him the status of a noble.
Ishihara Hiroshi visits the laboratory so frequently, so he probably needs to inquire about what is going on there.
There is no doubt about the importance of the laboratory to Ishihara Hiroshi. If something goes wrong in the laboratory, Ishihara Hiroshi will not be able to explain it to His Majesty.
It might make him lose His Majesty's trust.
In this way, he will make great achievements.
Kumegu is very courageous and can do whatever he wants.
If you are not very courageous, how could you conduct a comprehensive investigation as soon as you arrive in Shanghai? You dare to stare at and investigate everywhere.
Kumegu's people quickly arrived at the outskirts of the laboratory.
When his people arrived, they found that the laboratory was heavily protected and no one was allowed to enter without a pass.
The security headquarters is guarding the place outside, with two squadrons of people here.
The security headquarters has blocked all intersections and set up multiple checkpoints, making it impossible for strangers to enter.
There are also guards from Ishihara Trading Company inside. I don’t know the exact number of them, but the number is definitely not too small. Even the food they eat is delivered by a specific person. Unless they are acquaintances, they can’t get in.
"I'll go check it out myself tomorrow."
Kumigu quickly decided that he wanted to see the conditions in the laboratory in person. The more Ishihara Toru attached more importance to it, the higher the value of proving it would be.
"Professor, you are back."
In the special high school class, Shui Jin came to Jiang Tengkong's office, and Jiang Tengkong returned to Shanghai.
"Did anything happen while I was away?"
Jiang Tengkong asked casually, and Shuijin immediately told him about the discovery of someone coming from the headquarters. Jiang Tengkong did not expect that something big would happen during the short period of time he left.
The chief section chief became suspicious and sent someone to investigate.
This was inevitable, but it just happened sooner or later. Jiang Tengkong had already been mentally prepared.
They had disobeyed orders from the headquarters for a long time, and it was strange that Tuyuan had no doubts about his temperament.
No matter what happens to these people, it is estimated that the chief section chief will recruit him back to the headquarters. It is impossible for him to go back, and if he goes back, he will not be able to come back.
Jiang Tengkong also knew Tuyuan's temperament.
Jiang Tengkong asked: "Master Ishihara, you want us to ignore it for the time being and just monitor?"
Shuijin immediately replied: "Yes, Ishihara-sama's intention should be to confirm their number before taking action."
Now nineteen people have been found, and they don't know if there will be more people coming. All they have to do is wait. If there is no one for a long time, it turns out that there are only these nineteen people.
"Then follow Ishihara-sama's instructions."
Jiang Tengkong didn't make any arrangements, and Shuijin left the office.
This time out, Jiang Tengkong finally got his wish and met Chu Chu.
Chu Chu is more attractive than before. He is living a good life in Chongqing. The military commanders do not treat him badly. Apart from not being able to go out freely, there is no other impact.
He can go out once a week to buy some daily necessities.
There are usually people who take care of him, cook for him, and take care of the housework. He usually doesn't have to do anything, just listen to the radio and read books, and his life is very comfortable.
Jiang Tengkong gave him a lot of rewards, and Chu Chu never lacked money.
He liked to listen to plays, and the military commanders would take him there and sit in the best boxes. His safety was strictly protected. Many people thought he was the young master of some family and had no idea of his true identity.
Seeing Chu Chu fulfilled Jiang Tengkong's wish, and he came back even more passionate this time.
The next day, Kumigu came outside the laboratory in person.
Just as my subordinates said, all intersections are blocked, there are no residents here, and some have had their houses expropriated and moved to other places.
It's impossible to get in, even if you put on wings, there are guard towers everywhere.
"Walk."
Kumigu didn't stop outside for a long time. Wouldn't it be difficult for him to get in?
He couldn't get in, but someone inside would always come out, tie someone up, and threaten his family to prevent him from talking nonsense.
You can also ask him what he wants to know.
Every move of Kumigu was clearly seen by the Shanghai Special High School.
"Went to the lab?"
Chu Lingyun quickly received the report that Jiang Tengkong was back. He went out secretly and came back secretly.
Kumigu didn't know that he was not in Shanghai.
The people sent by Kumegu to the Shanghai Special Higher Education Course could only stay on the periphery and at most keep an eye on the vehicles, unable to determine who was inside the vehicle.
There were not enough of them to go to where Jiang Tengkong lived.
It's useless to go there. All the people living there are high-ranking Japanese military officers. They have no way to get close unless they take the initiative to reveal their identities.
"Boss, do they want to attack the laboratory?"
Fang Shiyi asked in a low voice. He was the only person who knew Ishihara Hiroshi's thoughts. The laboratory's output was no longer small. Ishihara Hiroshi would not allow the output to increase and was prepared to destroy the laboratory.
Once it is destroyed, all research and development will have to be done again.
It was definitely a big blow to Japan.
If the people at the Super High School Headquarters have such an idea, it will be a great help to them.
"There shouldn't be any for now, but it doesn't matter. We can let them have it. Let's go to the laboratory."
Chu Lingyun quickly arrived at the laboratory and encouraged them again. Not only did he increase the bonus, but he also specifically told them that after the matter was completed this time, his title would be raised again.
When the time comes, he will recruit a group of meritorious officials as retainers.
Don't think that these scientists have too much backbone. There are more than a few benefits to becoming Ishihara Hiroshi's retainer.
Not only will there be greater security in the future, but treatment and status will also be improved accordingly.
Moreover, after Ishihara Hiroshi became a noble, he never recruited any family members.
This time Ishihara Hiroshi specifically said that the first ten people who were accepted as retainers could be hereditary for three generations.
In other words, their grandson, regardless of his ability or not, can serve as a retainer of the Ishihara family, live a worry-free life in the future, and have a high status.
Such benefits make them more motivated.
After all, not everyone can become a noble. It is a very good choice to stay with the nobles, serve them, and become the most reliable retainers.
Ishihara Hiroshi is so powerful that once he enters the House of Lords in the future, his starting point will be very high.
His title is not high now, who can guarantee the future?
After mass production in the laboratory, Hiroshi Ishihara will become a viscount. Based on his relationship with Ikuto, the next step is to become an earl, and there is a high possibility that the next step will be a marquis.
Maybe even become a Duke in the end.
If that happens, the Ishihara family will become the new rich of the empire, the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister. As members of the Ishihara family, they will have everything they need, including power, status and money.
The pie that Chu Lingyun drew was huge, and everyone believed it.
I thought that after a few decades, daydreaming would be pretty good.
They can't even wait for the moment when their dreams will be shattered one year and eight months later, and they will soon disappear together with the laboratory.
Loach has already buried explosives and can detonate the laboratory at any time.
Kumigu took action quickly. He was unable to investigate the situation of the members in the laboratory. He was in the dark in Shanghai. Without the cooperation of local people, it was not easy to investigate what he wanted.
The laboratory is extremely confidential, and not many people know who is inside.
He used the stupidest method, watching from a distance, following the people when they came out, and then randomly selected an unlucky person.
This unlucky guy must have family in Shanghai.
After three days of staring, Kumigu discovered something was wrong again.
Not many people come out of the laboratory.
Most of them live there. Research and development are so busy now that everyone consciously stays and works overtime. When they are tired, they go to sleep in the lounge in the laboratory.
Even if there were people who went out, many of them would be picked up in small cars and accompanied by bodyguards, so it would be difficult for him to take action.
Chu Lingyun will create opportunities for him, but he will not make this opportunity so easy. If it is too easy, it will arouse Tuyuan's suspicion.
Chu Lingyun had never looked down upon Tu Yuan, an old fox.
Next, we have to see how capable the person he sent is. He is such an idiot. Chu Lingyun considers himself unlucky.
Kumeko is arrogant, but not an idiot.
He stared at it for five days and finally found a suitable target. This person came out once every two days. He didn't have a car to pick him up. He rode his bicycle every time. Kumigu found out his identity.
He is an expert's assistant.
General assistants are not allowed to leave the laboratory. They are equivalent to apprentices and have certain restrictions on their movements. This assistant's teacher is very kind to him and allows him to go home once every two days.
He has a home in Shanghai, his wife is here, and he just had a child.
It is very hard for my wife to take care of the children at home alone. He goes back once every two days to help her and let her rest.
This is a good man, absolutely rare among Japanese in this era.
He has a child, who is very young, and he loves the child very much. This is Kumigu's opportunity.
After controlling his wife and children, he did not dare to make any resistance. However, for safety reasons, Kumigu would send his wife and children out of the city. As long as their radio station in the city did not regularly communicate with outside the city, they would be killed immediately.
He himself will remain in the city.
Kumigu is not afraid of death. The chief section chief has shown kindness to him and he is willing to sacrifice everything for him.
Okuda returned home soon and brought his wife's favorite pastries.
"Dear little Okuda, daddy is back."
After entering the door, Okuda immediately shouted happily. He didn't notice that his wife, who always liked to wait for him at the door, did not show up today.
Okuda is not an agent and does not have such vigilance.
Entering the room, Okuda's eyes suddenly tightened and the cake in his hand fell to the ground.
There were three people in the room. One of them was pointing a gun at his wife. The child was held by his wife, and her face was full of fear.
"You, who are you? I can give you whatever you want, but don't hurt my family."
Just now he was speaking in Japanese, but now he was stammering in non-standard Chinese.
He regarded the three Kumigu as Chinese robbers.
"Don't be afraid. I'm here to ask you something. I don't want your things. If you satisfy me, I can give you money, a lot of money."
Kumigu smiled, he spoke in Japanese.
Japanese?
Okuda was even more shocked. Who kidnapped his wife and children? What did they want to ask him?
Okuda soon understood that the other party was here for the laboratory, and his value was only this and nothing else.
"What do you want to know?"
Okuda asked tremblingly, how big is the person in front of him? He is so courageous that he dares to take advantage of the laboratory.
Don’t they know that that is the place that Ishihara Toru values most, and that is also the place that His Majesty values the most?
"Tell me everything about the recent situation in the laboratory. You can't omit anything. If you miss something, I will cut off one of your son's fingers. If you don't want your son to be a disabled person in the future, just be honest.
Explain."
Kumegu took out the knife and made a gesture next to Okuda's son.
Okuda felt nervous, they really came for the laboratory.
"I can tell you, but I don't know the formula. I am just an assistant and have no access to the core secrets."
Okuda immediately replied that his son was important and he couldn't care about that much now.
If you tell me, it's a betrayal and you may be executed by your boss, but if you don't tell me, a family of three may die right now.
"No need for a formula, let's start talking now."
Kumigu shook his head, what did he want the formula for? He didn't know how to research it.
Okuda immediately told all the recent progress in the laboratory. They have found new ideas by studying drugs bought on the Chinese black market and are working hard on research and development. It is estimated that there will be a major breakthrough soon.
Ishihara Hiroshi also expressed all his encouragement to them.
Okuda actually wanted to become Ishihara Hiroshi's retainer, so that the whole family would be protected in the future. Unfortunately, after this time, his dream of becoming a retainer was completely gone.
The more Kumigu listened, the brighter his eyes became.
No wonder Hiroshi Ishihara is so diligent in running the laboratory, which is about to be mass-produced. Once the laboratory is mass-produced, Hiroshi Ishihara will be promoted to a knighthood immediately.
The chief section chief said that His Majesty attaches great importance to the laboratory and is waiting for mass production.
If they fail to do so, His Majesty will definitely be disappointed with Ishihara Hiroshi.
Destroying the laboratory was definitely a heavy blow to Ishihara Hiroshi.
He didn't think about whether more imperial soldiers would die without treatment if there were no new drugs. That had nothing to do with him.
He is the chief section chief, and whether His Majesty is happy or unhappy has nothing to do with him.
Hiroshi Ishihara is the chief enemy. As long as he can deal with Hiroshi Ishihara, he is willing to do anything.
"I will help you take care of your wife and children for a few days. If you be honest these days, nothing will happen to them. If you dare to be dishonest, you know what will happen to them."
Kumigu listened carefully to what he said and had an idea in mind, preparing to take away Okuda's wife and son by force.
Okuda's wife's face suddenly turned pale.
"No, please, don't take them away. I can do whatever you want me to do."
Okuda knelt on the ground with a thud. He didn't know that the more this happened, the less likely it was that Kumigu would leave the person behind.
"Don't worry, the better you do, the safer they will be."
Kumegu had already stood up, and his men were escorting Okuda's wife, preparing to take her away by force.
As for Okuda's son, Kumigu gave him sleeping pills, which will make him sleep very sweetly. The child is too young, and if he keeps crying, it will easily attract other people's attention.
"No, I don't allow you to take them away."
Okuda suddenly stood up and stretched out his hands to stop them, but as a researcher, how could he be the opponent of an agent?
"Boom."
Okuda was knocked to the ground, and Kumigu stepped on his head hard: "Are you being dishonest so soon? Do you want me to kill them now?"
Okuda was stepped on and shed tears as he watched his wife and children being forcibly taken away.
He didn't dare to shout, because if he did, someone would come, but these people would definitely kill his family before anyone else arrived.
They are not humans, they are animals.
"Remember what I said, don't do stupid things, otherwise no one can save them."
Kumigu dropped these words and walked away. People from the Shanghai Special High School noticed that they had escorted a woman and a child out, and immediately reported it.
It didn't take long for Chu Lingyun to know what they had done.
It seems that the people sent by Tuhara are not too stupid and have found a gap. Okuda is an assistant and is inconspicuous. There are many assistant laboratories like this.
The next step is to wait for them to enter the laboratory. Once they enter the laboratory, the bomb will be detonated by Loach.
Chu Lingyun can help them this time and create a chance for them to get in. Otherwise, if they keep waiting, they will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
Two days later, Ishihara Hiroshi suddenly invited an opera troupe to come to the laboratory to sing an opera here.
We invited a Japanese theater troupe. More than half of the laboratory is Japanese. They like the traditional drama of their country the most. This time we invited a theater troupe that performs kyogen.
Update of 10,000 words. I don’t have a fever today, but just feel weak all over. It should be due to potassium deficiency. I think it will be fully recovered in two days. Xiaoyu will try tomorrow to see if it can be updated.
