Chapter 402 Urgent Mission (please recommend and vote monthly)
Two days later, Takagi came to the Navy Club to relax and have fun after get off work as usual, but as soon as he walked through the door of the club, he was pulled aside by a familiar waiter.
"I asked you, what are you doing? Is there something you can't tell directly? Do you have to be so secretive?"
These words scared the waiter half to death, "Takagi-kun, it's a matter of your reputation, how can you say it directly?"
As soon as these words came out, Takagi glanced at the waiter thoughtfully, and said calmly: "What are you talking about?"
"Don't dare to talk nonsense. Just yesterday, Chief Ito...oh, it was the original Mr. Acheng who brought people over and asked a lot about you, Takagi-kun, especially the situation before the accident of the 'Tom'. He asked the most
Carefully, do you think he is doubting you?"
Hearing this, Takagi's face suddenly sank, "What are you doubting? What happened to the 'Tom'? As the person in charge, Acheng is naturally to blame. Chief Fujita gave him one week to find out the truth of the incident.
, such a clueless case naturally needs to be investigated from within, so his coming here is just a routine matter, don’t scare yourself! "
"I see, it seems that the younger one is thinking too much. If you have nothing else to do, the younger one will go and get busy first."
"Go! Besides, the conversation we just had..."
"Don't worry, I always have a strict mouth and will never talk nonsense."
After hearing this, Takagi nodded with satisfaction and let the waiter leave.
However, just after the waiter left, Takagi, who had lost all interest, did not continue to stay in the club, and simply turned around and left, quickly disappearing into the vast night.
Half an hour later, in a cafe near the government office.
"...That's all I know. Do you think that Acheng might have been targeting me?" Takagihara asked worriedly after retelling what he had just experienced.
However, before he finished speaking, Secretary Liu, who was sitting opposite him, said with great certainty: "It's not possible, I've definitely been targeting you. Although I had expected such a result before, I didn't expect it.
That Ah Cheng has already fixed his sights on you so quickly."
"Then...what should I do now?"
"Does that need to be said? Of course I took the initiative to go to Fujita Yoshimasa to confess my mistake, and then pulled out the scapegoat to take the blame!" Secretary Liu said without thinking.
"This..." Takagi couldn't help but hesitate after hearing this, "But if this happens, wouldn't everything we did before be in vain?"
"How could it be in vain? For us, the worst result is nothing more than the crime of confidentiality, but for that Cheng, the crime is even greater. Even if he can clear himself of suspicion,
You won’t be reused by Fujita Yoshimasa anymore, right?”
"Yes, yes, you are absolutely right!" After hearing what Secretary Liu said, Takagi finally felt relieved, but soon asked worriedly, "By the way, where is the waiter? Do you want..."
"No, that will only make it darker and darker."
"Okay, I understand. I'm going to find Chief Fujita!" After saying that, Takagi stood up and left the cafe.
After a night of preparation, Takagi arrived at the military police headquarters early the next morning and knocked on the door of Fujita Yoshimasa's office.
Not long after, Fujita Yoshimasa's voice rang from inside, "Come in!"
However, before he finished speaking, he saw Takagi walking in with a dejected look on his face. Without saying a word, he bowed at a ninety-degree angle and said almost in a tearful tone: "Chief Fujita, please shoot me!"
As soon as these words came out, Fujita Yoshimasa couldn't help being stunned, and asked inexplicably: "Takagi-kun, why did you say this?"
"Returning to Chief Fujita, since the incident on the Tom, I have been thinking about every detail before the incident. But just yesterday, I suddenly thought of a possibility, so I ran to him.
You apologize."
After hearing this, Fujita Yoshimasa waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't rush to apologize, but tell me, what did you think of?"
"Chief Fujita, didn't you ask me to secretly investigate Acheng's use of the 'Tom' for smuggling?"
"Yes, but haven't you already reported it to me and found nothing unusual?"
"Yes, this is indeed what my subordinate reported to you, but..." Having said this, Takagi swallowed hard, and then confessed as if he mustered up the courage, "But my subordinate lied.
In fact, my subordinates have discovered some clues."
"Since you have made a discovery, why don't you report it?"
"My subordinate... my subordinate originally planned to create an illusion that everything was calm, so he concealed it and at the same time sent people to the Hong Kong bank to secretly investigate the suspicious cash transport truck, intending to come during his next smuggling operation.
A person has gained all the stolen goods, leaving him unable to defend himself, but who would have thought that something would happen to the 'Tom' not long after... But now that it has happened, it is useless to say anything, and I still ask Chief Fujita to punish him!"
As soon as these words came out, the office fell into silence. Although Takagi's face was covered with sweat, he still maintained the extremely difficult bowing posture and did not dare to move.
I don't know how long it took, but when Takagi was almost unable to hold on any longer, Fujita Yoshimasa finally sighed and said, "Okay, get up!"
It was only then that Takagi held his already sore waist with his hands and slowly stood up straight.
"If this matter is really what you said, then your people leaked the news while investigating the cash transport truck, and it eventually reached Cheng's ears. In order to cover up his crime, he directed and acted on his own
The 'Tom' incident?"
"Yes, even if that kid not only openly broke with the Ming family and even changed his surname to a Japanese surname in order to join your army, in the end he is still Chinese!"
Speaking of this, Takagi very wisely did not continue talking, because he knew in his heart that the less he said about this situation, the more effective it would be, otherwise it would be counterproductive.
As expected, after hearing Takagi's words, a seed of doubt had successfully taken root and sprouted in Fujita Yoshimasa's heart.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and then Acheng's voice rang out, "Report!"
Fujita Yoshimasa naturally heard Acheng's voice, so he tried to say as calmly as possible: "Come in!"
Before he finished speaking, Acheng opened the door and walked in. When he noticed that Takagi was also there, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he bowed to Fujita Yoshimasa and reported: "Report to Chief Fujita, your subordinates
I just received the news that just now, a waiter at the Navy Club was found dead in his dormitory."
Seeing Acheng mention "waiter" as soon as he opened his mouth, Takagi's heart suddenly "thumped". Although he tried very hard to stay calm, he didn't know that his entire psychological change had already been affected by the cunning Fujita Yoshimasa.
Captured keenly.
But even so, Fujita Yoshimasa did not immediately attack him, but pretended to be puzzled and asked: "It's just a 'waiter' who died. Do you need to come here to report to me?"
As soon as these words came out, Takagi immediately echoed: "Yes, Acheng-kun, isn't it just that a waiter died? Is there any need to make such a fuss? If you really have that energy, you might as well focus on investigating the 'Tom'"
Regarding the incident, don’t forget that you only have three days left.”
"Thank you, Mr. Takagi, for reminding me, but how do you know that this murder has nothing to do with the Tom incident?"
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is very simple. Please answer me truthfully, Mr. Takagi. Where were you around seven o'clock last night?"
"What a joke!? I am a soldier of the Japanese Empire, what qualifications do you have to judge me?"
"you!"
"That's enough! You two, stop arguing!" Seeing that the two of them were arguing more and more fiercely, Fujita Yoshimasa finally couldn't stand it anymore, "I just want to investigate the case, why are you so anxious? Takagi-kun, Acheng-kun are so
The purpose of this is to investigate this case as quickly as possible, so just answer his questions truthfully."
Naturally, Takagi did not dare not listen to what Fujita Yoshimasa said, so he suppressed his dissatisfaction and said angrily to Cheng: "Yes, I did go to the Navy Club last night, but I only stayed for a while and then left.
.”
"That's it." After saying that, Acheng turned to Fujita Yoshimasa and said, "Sir Fujita Mingjian, my subordinate just went to the Navy Club to investigate the day before yesterday, and the club's waiter was brutally killed. What a coincidence,
Takagi-kun was at the scene of the incident on the night of the incident, so it’s hard not to make people suspicious!”
"Hmph! I knew you would put this shit on my head! Okay, since you suspect it's me, then please come up with evidence. As long as you can come up with conclusive evidence, the person who proves it is me.
I killed him, so there is no need for you to take action, I will commit seppuku in front of Chief Fujita!"
Before he finished speaking, Fujita Yoshimasa's voice also rang out, "Acheng-kun, I appreciate your ability, but Takagi-kun's words are not unreasonable. Since you suspect that this murder case is related to Takagi-kun, you have to
Produce enough evidence, after all, this is related to the face of our Imperial Japanese Army, and there is no room for sloppiness."
"Don't worry, Chief Fujita, I will seize the time to investigate and will never unjustly accuse a 'good' person, and of course I will not let any 'bad' person go!"
"Well, that's pretty much it!"
And just when the special high school class headed by Fujita Yoshimasa and No. 76 headed by Li Shiqun were all very busy due to recent emergencies, large and small, that evening, Li Qiang was arrested as soon as he returned to the Ming Mansion.
Minglou was called into the study.
"What? I have a mission?" Before Minglou could say anything, Li Qiang took the lead and asked as if he had the ability to predict the future.
"How did you know there was a mission?"
Li Qiang smiled and joked: "That's not simple. Isn't it written on your face?"
Hearing this, Minglou couldn't help but snorted, and then took out a translated telegram from the drawer and handed it to Li Qiang, "Here, Zhang Nixiaolin has just received the urgent telegram to the peak.
Two days ago, we secretly went to Nanjing under the protection of bodyguards, met with Zhou Fohai, Chen Gongbo and the military chiefs, and accepted the letter of appointment as the provincial governor of Wang Puppet Government. He will take office soon. Regardless of the orders from the top, we
No matter what we do, we must impose the severest sanctions on him before he takes office!"
However, before he finished speaking, Li Qiang frowned and asked, "When will Zhang Ni take office?"
"Not sure."
"Then where is he now?" Li Qiang asked again.
"have no idea."
"Is there any other valuable information?"
"there is none left."
At this time, Li Qiang was completely speechless. He spread his hands and said helplessly: "Brother, you don't know anything about this question. How do you want me to perform the task?"
"Because this task is too difficult to execute, Shangfeng handed it over to us. Although the information we currently have is very limited, based on my understanding of the guy, the reason why he didn't take office immediately is eight out of ten.
Ninth, you are just putting on airs and waiting for those local officials to give you a confession!"
Hearing this, Li Qiang nodded, "If that's the case, it's a good breakthrough, and it can be considered a direction. Then let's do this for now and wait for my news."
Without further ado, after a brief discussion with Minglou, Li Qiang left the house again and went straight to the underground black market of Paramount. He found Xie Ruolin, who was very active during this period, with almost no effort.
"Chief Ming... Section Chief Ming?! Is there anything... that needs to be taken care of this time?"
"Nothing, I just want you to help me investigate the current situation of officials in various counties and districts in this province."
"No... no problem, this... is a small matter, one... a week is enough."
I didn't want Li Qiang to shake his head repeatedly after hearing this, "No, it's too long! I can only stay with you for two days at most!"
"Two... days? This is too..."
"What, is there any problem? If you have any problem, just ask. If it doesn't work, I can find someone else."
As soon as these words came out, Xie Ruolin immediately became anxious, "No, no, no, no... no! Two days... just two days! I'll do it!"
Hearing this, Li Qiang nodded with satisfaction, "That's pretty much it!"
After saying that, he took out a small yellow croaker from his arms and stuffed it into his hand.
As the saying goes: Money can make the world go round.
This sentence couldn't be more appropriate when applied to Xie Ruolin. Driven by the motivation of the little yellow croaker, that guy used all his strength to get the information that Li Qiang urgently needed in less than two days.
I felt it clearly and even bound it into a booklet.
After bringing the booklet back to the Ming Mansion, Li Qiang and Minglou carefully analyzed every record on it. Finally, Huangtian paid off and the two of them discovered something from it.
