"Excuse me, do you know Takeshita Jun?" the 'beggar' asked cautiously.
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said, "Who are you?"
"I am Takeshita Jun's junior sister in Beichen Itto Ryu, Kobayashi Keiko." The 'beggar' said excitedly, flipping his hair to both sides.
"Xiao Lin Huizi? Beichen Yida Ryu?" Zhou Weiguo frowned. Speaking of which, he had seen Xiao Lin Huizi at that time. He was going to be executed by the National Government for killing someone from Beichen Yida Ryu. In the end, his father Zhou Jixian spent a lot of money to do it.
A prisoner on death row was found to replace him. Sure enough, Zhou Weiguo slowly remembered the face of Keiko Kobayashi, "How did you become like this?"
"It's a long story." Keiko Kobayashi said bitterly, "Can I trust you?"
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said, "Since you are Takeshita Jun's junior sister, you are my friend."
Kobayashi Keiko did not recognize Zhou Weiguo. Firstly, in her impression, Zhou Wen was already dead, so she would not remember a dead Chinese. Secondly, Zhou Weiguo spoke Japanese with a very authentic Kyoto accent.
After a while, Xiao Ya also came over because she saw Zhou Weiguo stopped there and said in Japanese, "Awen, what's wrong?"
"This is Takeshita Jun's junior sister, Miss Kobayashi Keiko." Zhou Weiguo explained to Xiao Ya, and then he called a waiter and asked the waiter to run errands to buy some clothes for Kobayashi Keiko.
"Thank you very much." Keiko Kobayashi bowed again and again, her tone full of gratitude.
"Miss Keiko, you don't have to be so polite." Xiao Ya said with a smile, "You are Takeshita Jun's junior sister, so naturally you are our friend."
"That's right." Zhou Weiguo said. He was not surprised by Keiko Kobayashi's situation. Ever since she and Takeshita Jun's master, Chiba Masao, opposed Japanese militarism, they had become a thorn in the side of some people in the Japanese military.
The nail in the coffin is that Takeshita Jun's identity is too sensitive. It is not just as simple as the four major families in Kyoto, but Takeshita Jun's master is a pacifist. For the Japanese Empire,
It's really not good news. In order to allow Takeshita Shun to be a staunch imperialist soldier with peace of mind, and to give a warning to domestic anti-war opponents, Chiba Mao died. Chiba Mao's identity can be regarded as a prestigious one in Japan.
of a certain status.
"Arigado." Keiko Kobayashi thanked her again and again.
When the waiter bought the clothes, Xiao Ya took Xiaolin Keiko to the bathroom to freshen up and change clothes.
In this life, he persuaded Takeshita Jun to return to Japan. He already knew that Takeshita Jun was sent back to the country. In this way, he could still save this friend, and Takeshita Jun would not be too miserable in the future.
About half an hour later, Xiao Ya came with Xiaolin Huizi, and Zhou Weiguo pulled out the chairs for the two of them. He had already ordered food.
"Aligado." Xiaolin Keiko bowed to Zhou Weiguo and Zhou Weiguo again.
"You're welcome, Miss Keiko. Please sit down and have something to eat." Xiao Ya said to her. No matter what happened to Keiko Xiaolin, she was still a girl. Moreover, it seemed that something very unfortunate had happened to her, which made Xiao Ya
Even more sympathetic.
…
When Xiaolin Keiko put down her knife and fork, drank some more milk, and then bowed to Zhou Weiguo and thanked him again.
"Miss Huizi, I told you not to be so polite." Zhou Weiguo said, "Now, I don't know if it's convenient for Miss Huizi to tell me why she ended up like this."
"It all started with the death of my master." Keiko Kobayashi smiled bitterly, "It all started with April this year. The empire lost 100,000 warriors on the battlefield in China, which led to anti-war sentiment in the country.
Soaring. And my master, the former leader of Beichen Itto Ryu, Chiba Masao, is one of them. Because of my master's status, people from the military sent people to assassinate my master."
"How did Miss Keiko know that your master was assassinated?"
"Although my master is a little older, he is usually in good health. Moreover, he told us the day before that we would have to take exams for schoolwork the next day. But the next day, my master died on his own
There were no external injuries in the room." Keiko paused and said, "I have a senior brother who serves in the Japanese military. That day, he said that his master died of a heart attack."
"There are more back there." Xiao Ya nodded. For Xiao Ya, all this was something she didn't know, so she was interested. But Zhou Weiguo had known all this for a long time and did not ask questions. Moreover, the woman
With women, it's best to let them communicate.
"I and others were very suspicious. Finally, when Master was about to be cremated, part of his stomach contents were obtained, and the results confirmed that Master died of poisoning." Keiko Kobayashi said, "So, everything is very clear."
"Please have my condolences." Zhou Weiguo said calmly, with a hint of sympathy in his tone.
"I know that the master's death is partly due to the elder brother." Keiko Kobayashi said, "In addition to the fact that master and I were opposed to the war, the master once told the elder brother that those who take the initiative to provoke a war will definitely not have good results.
This is what happened to the empire today. At that time, the senior brother agreed very much. But even so, as a soldier, the senior brother could not disobey orders. Therefore, after returning from Germany, the senior brother appeared on Chinese soil.
The master was still there at that time and once advised the senior brother not to act like this."
Zhou Weiguo sighed. Of course he knew that Takeshita appeared on the Chinese battlefield. The two fought many times and each suffered injuries.
"But Eldest Brother is not only the young master of the Takeshita family, but also the cousin of His Majesty the current Emperor (a fictional one)." Keiko Kobayashi said, "Once an imperial relative like Eldest Brother openly opposes the war, the impact will be huge.
"
"So the military sent people to assassinate your master so that your senior brother can fight in China with peace of mind." Xiao Ya continued.
Kobayashi Keiko nodded, "But after I found out the truth, I was hunted down. I fled all the way from Japan to North Korea, and then to China, and then I met you two. I don't know if you two know that I am older.
Where is senior brother now?"
"Toshi Takeshita should be in Japan now." Zhou Weiguo said, "He was transferred back to China a few months ago."
"Nani?" Keiko Kobayashi stood up. Unexpectedly, her trip was in vain, "I want to go back to China!"
"No, you can't go back. Once you go back, you will be hunted down." Zhou Weiguo said, "Just stay in China for the time being. After all, in China, the hands of the Japanese military cannot be stretched that far."
"Then, how do I tell Senior Brother the truth?"
"Don't worry, I have a way to contact him." He said around him. In fact, after he dealt with Konoe Fumi, he received a call from Takeshita Jun who passed to him. Takeshita Jun asked him to tell him if he met Keiko Kobayashi.
, we must protect her. Of course, Zhou Weiguo also established contact with Takeshita Jun because of this telegram.
