“…Excuse me…One hundred kilograms of gold was used to redeem an illegitimate daughter, and it’s revealed again…don’t miss the latest news…”
Some small newspapers actually directly added additional issues, and came over for an after-lunch newspaper, eager to print and sell the news released by Li Weixi.
Not to mention, the response was good, but there was not enough to sell, and a lot more were printed. Many small and medium-sized newspapers saw this and followed up. The afternoon issue was too late, but the evening issue was definitely fine!
But Suzuki's mood was not very beautiful. Looking at the content in the newspaper, his eyes were bloodshot and full of anger, but there was a wave of weakness in his heart.
Because the other party has not contacted Li Weixi, to be precise, no one has contacted Li Weixi since they made the move this morning. He can be sure of this.
In other words, the other party had predicted their actions in advance, or at least had a plan, but no matter what the situation was, he felt deeply powerless.
Of course, it is possible that the people in North Korea did it themselves. If so, it would not be a good thing for them. Having a difficult enemy would already make them uncomfortable. Adding another one, he simply did not dare to think too much about it.
After a while, Suzuki Ichiro calmed down his bad mood and reported the situation to his superiors.
"With these North Koreans here, every punch we throw is like hitting cotton, light and fluffy..."
Takeuchi sighed helplessly. With such a scapegoat, it would be too difficult to attack the opponent through means such as pressure from public opinion.
"Have they been dealt with?" Suzuki asked, but his tone was not so firm.
Takeuchi raised his hand and said: "Forget it, having them as a buffer is not a bad thing for us, and they are not only a buffer between us and the Intelligence Department, but also a buffer between Japan, Europe and the United States in Shanghai. Without them, the conflict will only become more serious.
many."
He is also quite conflicted about his attitude towards this group of Koreans. They are like toads crawling around their feet, and they want to get rid of them quickly. But sometimes, they can start to have an effect.
Now, their plan was ruined, but they also revealed things they couldn't say clearly, such as internal fighting, which they definitely couldn't say clearly.
The other party's interference not only ruined their plan, but those who secretly poked at them had no choice but to put their little thoughts aside, and actually relieved them of their difficulties.
Besides, if the operation fails and the other party comes forward to claim it, this does ruin the possibility of them provoking disputes, wars, and diplomatic conflicts through casualties, but for themselves, this is not necessarily a bad thing.
After all, when you stir up disputes and wars, you have to sacrifice people to the flag. Once this kind of thing that you suffer a loss is used to stir up emotions in the country and publicize it, those of them who are responsible should not commit seppuku?
Everyone knows that these people are imposters, but since they cannot point the finger at the government, they will naturally not let the domestic media lead the report with endless articles. Is it possible that they are not embarrassed enough?
Because they have lost this targeted purpose, public opinion generally only ferments in China, or even only in Shanghai. This saves them a lot of trouble, at least they don't have to be thrown out to the public's anger.
The same is true in other aspects. This is a buffer that maintains a state of struggle for all parties without breaking through, so that they will not be unable to hold back and completely break up.
"Chief Takeuchi, how should we respond now?"
Suzuki also knew this and was not surprised. He just asked for his opinion on how to handle the matter.
"Although there is a ladder to get off the stage, you can't just come down and instruct some people to continue singing the opposite show."
Suzuki nodded, just pretending! Don't let others grab your pigtails.
"Have you found anything about the situation at Lan Weimai's place?"
Takeuchi changed his words and did not continue to talk about those things. After all, it was not so glorious.
"There are some unconfirmed situations. One is Lan Weimai's place. Only one supervisor showed up today, and the other supervisors have never been seen.
We also found out that it was suspected to be a transit warehouse where Lan Weimai secretly transferred silver. After a secret investigation, there seemed to be nothing unusual.
At the same time, we followed the ruts and found traces of Lan Weimai's cars that changed lanes and went to other places. However, the vehicles took a main road and were temporarily lost.
What is certain is that something did happen to Lan Weimai last night, but the problem now is that she is not sure whether it was her own fault or whether it was related to those people, because that person has not shown anything unusual so far.
"
After hearing this, Takeuchi was undecided for a moment. Although he was inclined to think that something might have happened, there was no evidence to support this guess.
"Continue the investigation! Be secretive and careful, and try not to be discovered."
After thinking about it, Takeuchi warned him that in this situation, he did not dare to investigate regardless of the consequences. After all, there was no proof or evidence, and if he was really discovered, he would not be able to find any excuses.
…
"...Oh, hey... I've never seen such a devastated look before! What kind of stimulation is this?"
Xu Yanxue opened the door and looked at his messy hair and bloodshot eyes. He was completely distracted. His eldest brother Xu Yanbo could not suppress the curvature of his mouth.
Xu Yanbo calmed down slightly. Looking at Xu Yanxue, who was gloating and arrogant, his face became even more ugly. His clenched fists were so tight that his nails were almost piercing into his flesh.
"Take this, print an issue in the evening, polish the contents, and publish it in the newspaper. Don't do anything stupid! You must have guessed who asked you to publish it. To be honest, I don't want you to publish it yet.
!”
Xu Yanxue did not continue to stimulate, directly stated the purpose of his visit, took out an envelope from his briefcase and handed it over.
"...Pah..." Xu Yanbo snatched the envelope, opened it and looked at it with joy on his face. He gave Xu Yanxue a provocative look, held it like a treasure, and read it with joy.
Seeing Xu Yanbo's appearance, Xu Yanxue was filled with anger, but in the end he had no choice but to sigh helplessly, his face darkened, and he walked away quite unhappy.
"...Bang..." As the door was closed with force, Xu Yanbo's face changed, and his expression changed inexplicably, ranging from ferocious to sinister, but in the end he sighed helplessly, took out his pen, and started writing.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "...Oh...what's the matter, so happy? Last time you went in and came back, you didn't look good."
Seeing Xu Yanxue, who was still cheerful as he got into the car, Murata asked curiously.
"When he feels uncomfortable, I feel happy...ha..."
Xu Yanxue responded and couldn't help but laugh out loud, which aroused Murata's curiosity and couldn't wait to ask him what happened.
"He returned to Shanghai overnight yesterday. He probably heard some rumors, but he was robbed on the way. He was robbed and only had a pair of underwear left. He lived in the busy city with a bruised face and did not dare to go back. He waited for the staff to come to the newspaper office after work.
My face was purple from the cold..."
Xu Yanxue talked about Xu Yanbo's ugliness indifferently. How did he know? Naturally, the staff revealed to him that those people didn't have a good impression of the two of them and were happy to watch their jokes.
"Really? Bo Sang's information seems to be very well-informed?"
Murata asked out of curiosity. Of course, it might be more than just curiosity. Who knows?
"...Sigh..." Hearing this, Xu Yanxue sighed and said: "He is cruel to his own people, but he is very considerate to outsiders, and he has liked to be generous and social since he was a child.
There are many friends of all kinds here.”
After listening to this, Murata comforted Xu Yanxue a few words. As if to satisfy his curiosity, he asked a lot about the brothers. He didn't stop until the car took the two of them back to their new unit.
However, the atmosphere in the new unit was a bit off. Xu Yanxue lowered his head and went to a large office in the side room honestly. Murata stopped talking nonsense and went back to report honestly.
"Did something happen again? The atmosphere here is not right?"
After Xu Yanxue had been in office for a while, he saw many people secretly whispering to each other from time to time, and he couldn't bear it anymore. He secretly ran to a fellow from the same place of origin and asked in a low voice.
"It is said that something happened in Nanjing. Several princes were arrested for some actions. Some people started making a fuss, hoping to get money to redeem them, but the superiors were not willing."
Xu Yanxue understood, lowered his voice and asked quietly: "Is it related to the incident in the newspaper?"
"Yes, it is said that one of the people who was arrested came off the boat. The princes who got off the boat felt that they were superior to others, so they asked for money to redeem him."
"Will it be redeemed?" Xu Yanxue asked with a bit of confusion on his face and a bit of curiosity.
"Many of the Taijuns who came off the ship have a lot of classmates, comrades in the same ship, and even people who have held positions on the ship before and after. They are indeed more arrogant than others, but it is hard to say."
"Why?" Xu Yanxue was like a curious baby, praising him actively and giving this senior emotional value.
"What else could it be? It's all about money! How much did it cost to redeem that person? One hundred kilograms of gold! No matter how arrogant you are, you won't pay so much money to redeem him. How can others look at you if you take less?
It is said that millions were taken away from the Yin family residence last night, and people still lacked the small amount of money they could afford. It is said that the other party went to collect the ransom last night, and they only sent a small boat with a few people. That was one hundred
Even kilograms of gold are not worth it."
"...darling...several million! How much does that cost? There are so many in one place, the princes are so rich!"
The middle-aged man curled his lips and said: "What does that mean? Compared with the Taijun of the Navy, they are poor people. Any small warship in the Navy is more than this price."
Xu Yanxue praised him again, which showed him that he was a good teacher, and he chatted for a long time. Seeing that it was almost time for the Japanese to inspect the post, he reluctantly went back.
Murata also carefully searched for people to understand the situation and learned more about the inside story, but it was not of much use to him.
After all, it is not their turn to be redeemed or not, and it is not his turn to be a semi-monk without professional training and to be an undercover agent.
For him, he is not even qualified to intervene in these disputes. It is better to take care of the things at hand first and do the things assigned to him by the superiors. That is the right solution.
