In the mayor's office, Koutarou Ueda was sitting there in a daze. Now he knew that the entire intelligence was done by the Central Commander, but he didn't know who the Central Commander was. How to find out.
At the end of the day, he seemed to have aged more than ten years. His original vitality seemed to have disappeared and he had become decrepit.
"Mayor, please go and take a rest, otherwise your body may not be able to bear it. I really can't blame you for this. After all, Chinese spies are too cunning."
"Yeah, it's so cunning, I don't even know how the secret was leaked. Alas!"
"Mayor, don't worry about it. I remember that there were some leaks of secrets at the Kwantung Army Headquarters last year. What's the point of leaking secrets again this time? It's just that we were unlucky. We were betrayed by Chinese agents.
Targeted."
"Xiangzi, I have received a notice from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I will return to China at the end of this month to report on my work. I may never be able to come to China again. What do you think? Do you want to stay or go somewhere else?"
"Are you going to be fired?" Kono Koko was also stunned, her eyes widened. After all, she would never believe this was true.
"Yes, when I was in charge of work in Xinjing, Xinjing made two special mistakes. One was the bombing last year, which caused many people in the Kwantung Army commander to be extremely dissatisfied with me. If Commander Ueda hadn't suppressed me,
Once I get off, I may be taken back to support and report on my duties."
He let out a long sigh with a bitter look on his face: "What happened yesterday, even Commander Ueda will not intercede for me anymore. After all, the loss of top-secret files is a big deal. Otherwise,
Well, I am still the mayor and recommend you to work at the Shanghai Embassy. What do you think?"
"Sir, is this okay? I don't want to leave, sir, really!"
"No, I know that you are a responsible person who is diligent and willing to work. I am quite relieved about you, otherwise I would not recommend you to work at the Shanghai Embassy."
"Thank you mayor, I still want to go home with you, really!"
"I'm going home to retire and enjoy my old age. You're still young. Why come back with me? You have to at least double your achievements before returning to China, you know?" Ueda still persuaded in a serious tone.
"I am optimistic about you. Tomorrow I will send a message to the Shanghai Embassy, asking my classmates to help take care of you. Your talents cannot be wasted. After you go to the Shanghai Embassy, you must remember to do more and talk less."
"Hi!"
Kono Kouko also understood that her fate had basically been decided, and she knew Ueda's good intentions, but her voice was still a little sad. After all, her boss Ueda was about to leave Xinjing and return to China to be dismissed.
"Now you can help me work for a few more days. You will go to Dalian on the 22nd, then take a boat to Shanghai, and just report directly to the consulate."
"Thank you, sir!"
"You're welcome, work hard, and don't be directly harmed by others like me. Damn it, I suspect that this time someone is politically attacking their opponents and deliberately selling intelligence to Chinese agents. I won't bear the blame even if I don't.
Memorize it." Koutarou Ueda was also a little disheartened.
"Political rival?"
"Yes, this is politics. I suspect someone did this deliberately. As for the senior Chinese agents in the headquarters, I believe that, but the only ones who really know the content of the meeting are eight people. I, Colonel Honjo, and
Your Excellency, Commander, there are already three missing, and the remaining five are the Chief of Staff, Deputy Chief of Staff, and several other senior generals!"
"There are people here who opposed the commander's decision last time. It stands to reason that such important information cannot be lost, unless the Chinese agents are really high-level personnel. Why did the information come out so late? It would have been released long ago.
Come out." Ueda is the mayor after all, and he is quite sensitive politically.
"Ah, mayor, no, how could it be like this? If this is the case, wouldn't you be quite unjust?"
"No, that's how it is in politics. Either you die or I live. There's no mercy at all. You'd better not get involved in politics in the future. I thought about it for a whole day before I figured out the truth and reasons.
"
"ah--"
Kono Kouko was also shocked and covered her mouth directly, looking at Ueda in disbelief. After all, this caught her off guard and she didn't know what to say.
"Okay! You go back first, I'm going back to rest too!"
"yes!"
…
Zhang Tianhao returned home and started cutting beef and adding some vegetables for dinner as usual. He sat in the courtyard and ate while getting himself a bottle of wine.
Because he also found that when he returned home, there were two or three strangers around his house, and they seemed to be staring at his house.
It reminded him of the last time his family was targeted by the Secret Service. After all, this feeling was very strange.
Last time, there was an explosion in his house, and he used a small trick. The Japanese didn't believe him, and now they came to monitor him again.
It's also because of his relationship with Kono Koko: "Forget it, just do what you want, just monitor it!"
Zhang Tianhao sighed. The most he could do now was to move around. As long as he was as stable as Mount Tai, he didn't believe the Japanese could find any flaws in him.
Drink wine and eat meat, and then go back to the room to sleep as usual.
But before going to bed, he still checked in the room. After all, he was being monitored now, and he was still worried about being directly installed with listening equipment.
In the living room, he turned on the light and checked each place. Just as he thought, he really saw a small bug directly behind a painting of mountains and flowing water in the middle of the living room.
There are even some wires leading outside, and if you don't pay attention, you might be eavesdropped.
Seeing this situation, he immediately took out the detector and then conducted all inspections in the entire home.
When he saw that the phone on the desk in the room was also equipped with a small monitor, he sighed for a while.
Three, two rooms and one in the lobby. There is no electricity in other places, not at all.
"What the hell, which department is this damn secret agent from? He directly installed three bugs in my house? He's so generous and rich!"
Thinking of this, he felt a burst of grief. After all, with three bugs, whatever he did in his house would be heard by those watching outside.
"It seems someone is targeting me!"
He stood up and walked back and forth in the courtyard for a few times. Then he returned to the courtyard outside and began to sit there and continue drinking tea.
He looked around, and then he realized that the person monitoring him was not far away, either next door to him, opposite to him, or behind him. No matter how far away he was, there would be no way to monitor him.
After figuring out how to deal with it, he returned to the room as usual, put a film directly on the gramophone, and then started playing it.
The loud music that suddenly sounded filled the room.
The two agents who were monitoring Zhang Tianhao's movements next door immediately covered their ears. They were so depressed that Zhang Tianhao actually played such loud music, which they never expected.
It almost deafened their ears.
"Damn it, is this so crazy? You are still playing music now."
