"Li Ningyu, you are indeed a genius! Not only do you understand deciphering, but you also understand politics!" Mitsui Juichi said solemnly.
"If the plan succeeds, Japan will fall into a two-sided war with Chiang Kai-shek and Stalin. This is unwinnable. The war will be a disastrous defeat, and the Intelligence Department will inevitably be held accountable..."
"Shut up! I told you to shut up!"
Facing Mitsui Shouichi, who was about to be driven crazy by him, Li Ningyu remained unusually calm, "Major, I can see that you are a sensible and prudent person, and you will definitely not approve of such a crazy plan. As long as the people in the restaurant are allowed to
If everyone wants to survive, if he is worried about leaking secrets, Admiral Doihara will definitely not do anything he knows he cannot do. Major, you are saving the lives of countless Imperial soldiers, as well as the Intelligence Department!"
"That's enough! Stop talking!" Mitsui Juichi slammed his fist on the railing of the deck. "I admit that your analysis makes sense, but I am a soldier of the empire, so I must carry out the instructions of Colonel Morita during his lifetime.
Order, I’m sorry!”
However, before he finished speaking, Li Qiang's voice rang out again, "Then... what if I tell you that what Li Ningyu just said also meant what the General Staff Headquarters meant?"
As soon as these words came out, Mitsui Shouichi suddenly turned his head to look at Li Qiang, who had appeared behind the two of them at some point. Although a hint of joy flashed subconsciously in his eyes, he still cautiously confirmed: "Chief Ming, if I
If I remember correctly, you should be the representative of Admiral Doihara, and he secretly instructed you to board the ship at Qianjiang Customs, right?"
"Yes, but not entirely." Li Qiang spread his hands and said, "To be honest, what I really followed was the order of Major General Ying Zuo, and this was also the intention of the General Staff Headquarters. Fighting northward against the Soviet Union is the best way to go.
It doesn’t work! So I used some tricks, and with the cooperation of Major General Shadow, I successfully gained the trust of General Doihara through Nanzo Yunzi of Shanghai Special High School, and then I was able to board the ship on the Qianjiang River as his secret representative.
."
"This...this is all your words. How can I believe you?"
Li Qiang seemed to have expected Mitsui Juichi to ask this question. When he handed over a note he had prepared long ago from his pocket, "Major, if you don't believe it, you can go to the electrical and mechanical room now."
Confirm the confidential frequency band on this with Major General Ying Zuo. Of course, if this is not enough for you, you can also wait for the ship to dock and go to Major General Ying Zuo's office to confirm it in person."
Having said this, Li Qiang took two steps forward, deliberately lowered his voice, and said seductively: "Major General Ying Zuo believes that even if the Intelligence Department is not within his jurisdiction, the Major General should be so rational.
Prudent men should govern, what do you think, Major?"
After hearing this, Mitsui Shouichi did not make an immediate decision. Instead, he thought to himself for a while, then waved his hand and ordered his guards: "Stop releasing poisonous gas! Open the door!"
After saying that, he snatched the piece of paper from Li Qiang's hand and hurried towards the electrical and mechanical room...
Ten minutes later, Shanghai Ming Mansion.
"Brother, look! The message I just received!" Wang Manchun, who was already pregnant with Liujia, ran to the study room in Minglou and said excitedly.
"I mean, Manchun, you are a pregnant woman after all. Aren't you afraid of getting pregnant when you run up and down like this?" Minglou, who was still processing official documents, couldn't help but yelled when he saw Wang Manchun come in, and then said
He immediately stood up and helped her sit down on the sofa, and then took the newly translated telegram from her hand.
"Hey, don't worry, I'm in good health! I'm not that delicate and can't hurt your precious son!" Although Wang Manchun said that, there was always a happy smile on his face.
"How do you know it must be a son? I really want a daughter!"
"Then my daughter!"
"You're changing your tune now?"
"I said, as long as it is what you want, I will give it to you!" Wang Manchun said seriously.
Minglou couldn't help being slightly stunned after hearing this, and then said to her with a gentle face: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. In fact, to me, it doesn't matter whether it is a son or a daughter, as long as you are safe and sound.
"
After saying that, Minglou turned his attention to the telegram.
"This Ah Qiang is really capable! He actually did it!"
"Yeah, originally I was worried that he wouldn't be able to convince that old stubborn Morita, but I didn't expect that old guy was killed! Do you think it was A Qiang who did it?"
"It's hard to say. There were not only people from the East China Suppression General on that boat, but also various forces such as the Manchukuo Security Bureau, the North China Public Security Commission, and the Central China Intelligence Service. Until there is enough evidence, we really can't be sure who did it.
"Minglou shook his head and said, "However, the top priority right now..."
"Don't worry, I have already sent the report to Ying Zuo's office as promised. I probably won't even think about killing Mitsui, but he will become our intelligence agent in such a muddle."
At the same time, on the "flat boat" on the West Lake, Haitang was also wearing headphones, rapidly recording and translating the messages received through the so-called "confidential frequency band".
In fact, Li Qiang had no intention of naming the ship at first, but he couldn't resist Haitang's insistence, so he chose a name with a slightly contrasting sense of joy.
"How's it going?" After a long time, when he saw Haitang finally taking off the headphones on her head, Cheng, who had been standing by, immediately stepped forward and asked urgently.
"No problem, it seems that the team leader has successfully completed the task!"
Hearing this, Acheng let out a long sigh of relief, "Huh! That's good! That's good..."
Time returns to the present.
"Wow! Section Chief Ming, uh, no, Brother Ming, no, Brother Aqiang! Your connections are too strong, right? You can actually make the Japanese trust you so much. How did you do it?" After listening to Li Qiang's words
After the narration, Gu Xiaomeng immediately transformed into a little fan girl chasing stars for future generations, and asked with gleaming eyes.
Li Qiang waved his hand very humbly and said: "It's nothing, it's just that because the previous task of cleaning up the Black Dragon Society members who infiltrated the Shanghai Special High School was carried out secretly, Nakajima Nariko couldn't make the reward public, so he introduced me
It was given to Major General Ying Zuo, that’s all.”
"That's awesome. I've heard about that Ying Zuo. He has a weird temperament and is very difficult to get along with. Even my father can't talk to him. Brother Aqiang, I really admire you more and more.
."
However, before he finished speaking, Li Qiang snorted, "Save it! No matter how much you flatter me, the content of my report will not be changed! You should just wait obediently for the punishment at the top!"
After saying that, he left without looking back. Gu Xiaomeng curled his lips, said "tsk", and then left the computer room, quickly chasing after him...
…
Jin Shenghuo was currently smoking a cigar and listening to the Italian songs playing on the gramophone, seeming to be enjoying this rare respite from the disaster.
However, in fact, he kept recalling in his mind the scene the night before when he saw Gu Xiaomeng reminding Li Ningyu not to believe him in the big restaurant, which made him feel that Gu Xiaomeng was too smart and too unsmart.
Thinking of this, Jin Shenghuo couldn't help but sigh, "Woman..."
However, before he finished speaking, Li Qiang's voice rang out, "Why is Director Jin sighing like this? You don't seem to be someone who is burdened by women! Oh, Secretary Bai is here too?"
At this moment, Gu Xiaomeng from behind also chased after him, "Chief Ming, why are you walking so fast?"
However, Jin Shenghuo was not disturbed at all by the two people who suddenly broke into the room. It was not until the end of the song that he smiled and said to Li Qiang: "These words came from your mouth, Chief Ming, but they were a bit insincere! There is something wrong.
Hearing this, Li Qiang suddenly recalled that Director Cao of the Secretariat had asked him to help find Jin Shenghuo's daughter, so he quickly bowed to Jin Shenghuo apologetically.
Jin Shenghuo was also very generous. He turned the page directly, changed the topic again and said: "Since everyone is here, I have nothing to say. The rest of my life after this disaster depends on
Kim is grateful for your full cooperation and should also express his gratitude to you."
Before he finished speaking, Bai Xiaonian immediately said with a smile: "Director Jin, what you said is too polite. We are only doing this to save our own lives. We absolutely cannot be your director Jin's"
Thank you."
However, as soon as Bai Xiaonian's words were spoken, Jin Shenghuo suddenly changed the subject, "But Secretary Bai, there is one thing that Jin can't figure out for the life of me. I wonder if Secretary Bai can help me clear up my confusion?"
"Director Jin, please tell me."
"What does 'Qiuzhuang' in the message mean? Why did Commander Zhang send your Secretary Bai on board the ship immediately when he saw the word 'Qiuzhuang' alone this time?"
"Director Jin, don't forget, this is a message sent by Captain Wu. If you want to know the meaning, you shouldn't ask me, you should ask him!" Secretary Bai replied calmly.
Jin Shenghuo smiled and said, "If he could ask, why should I wait until now? But according to my guess, the word 'Qiu Zhuang' is a curse that Captain Wu recited to Commander Zhang. Secretary Bai
, am I right?"
However, as soon as these words came out, Bai Xiaonian immediately put away the smile on his face and said word by word: "Director Jin, what do you mean, Commander Zhang has something that Team Wu has in his hands?"
"At least...he doesn't dare to let the Japanese know."
Bai Xiaonian finally got angry. He stood up from the sofa and said sternly: "Director Jin, you are making an accusation! Accusing Commander Zhang of being disloyal to Chairman Wang and the Japanese!"
"Secretary Bai, don't just go on the offensive. The key point is not necessarily the word 'loyalty and traitor'. Although you and I are soldiers, we have entered the officialdom. This officialdom has been dangerous since ancient times. It is not just surrendering to the enemy and treason that can kill people."
Mainly this one."
"...What is that?" Secretary Bai calmed down a little and asked following Jin Shenghuo's words.
However, Jin Shenghuo smiled and didn't answer, and made Bai Xiaonian look unhappy.
But at this moment, Gu Xiaomeng smiled and said: "Director Jin, your words are really becoming more and more like Zen meditation."
"Both of you, please stop pretending to be confused. Don't forget that the previous commander, Commander Qian Huyi Qian, died in Qiuzhuang and was assassinated!"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Xiaomeng immediately recalled the previous scene when she danced with Morita.
"I heard from Director Jin that your father is the shipping king of Suzhou and Hangzhou, Mr. Gu Minzhang, the vice-chairman of the Economic Committee of the Nanjing National Government?" Morita said to Gu Xiaomeng while dancing to the melodious dance music of "The Sound of Spring".
However, Gu Xiaomeng replied somewhat unhappily: "Don't you think, Colonel, that mentioning my father and family background at this moment is not a compliment to me?"
"I'm sorry, I'm just curious. What kind of life can't be desired if Miss Gu has a good family background? Why do you have to join Wang Jingwei's secret service? At the cost of your own life?"
"Colonel, I can no longer understand what you are saying!"
"Then I might as well remind you of a few keywords, such as "military command", "Dai Li", "anti-rape plan", "assassination of Jin Shenghuo"! Didn't you, Director Dai, teach you that when the trump card is revealed?
The wisest thing to do is to stop pretending?"
Seeing Gu Xiaomeng's silence, Morita continued to smile patiently: "You still don't admit it? A month ago, the former commander of the Suppression General Qian Huyi was assassinated in Qiuzhuang!"
"What does this have to do with me? Colonel, I had not yet come to the Suppression Command at that time, and I was still studying in the Nanjing training class?"
"Okay! Then I will treat you as if I have nothing to do with you. What about Jin Shenghuo? He and Qian Huyi are both backbones of the military who defected to Wang. Aren't they also included in Dai Li's assassination list for the anti-traitor plan?
Ten years ago, Jin Shenghuo, who was Dai Li's ace spy at that time, successfully captured the Red Party agent Lu Xunzhang on Dai Li's orders. At the same time, he also killed a man named Qiu Zhengen, who was none other than Qiu Zhuang.
The owner of Qiu Village! No one knows why he wanted to kill Qiu Zhengen, but I am sure that he must have been ordered by Dai Li. Therefore, I thought of Dai Li from Qiu Village, and then thought of the anti-rape plan and the plan from Dai Li.
Jin Shenghuo and Qian Huyi were on the list. At this moment, I suddenly understood! Who is the spy on this ship? "
"Colonel, based on these, you conclude that the spy is me? Isn't that too arbitrary?"
"Of course it's more than that. In fact, as soon as you got on the ship, no, to be precise, before you even got on the ship, you had secretly posed a direct threat to Jin Shenghuo. Even when you first entered the conference room,
It may have been carefully calculated in advance! The purpose is to make me angry and hold Jin Shenghuo responsible for his lax guarding, so as to provide you with an opportunity for assassination! Isn't that right?"
Hearing this, Gu Xiaomeng fell into silence again.
Morita took the opportunity and continued in a tempting tone: "Miss Gu, I can promise you with the honor of an imperial soldier that as long as you can tell me who sent the Qiuzhuang message, I will ensure that you can
