"I'm sorry, Date-kun!" Tanaka lowered his head in shame, but his straight bowing of his head seemed even more out of place in this cafe.
Geng Chaozhong shook his head helplessly, looked at Tanaka with a look of pity and said:
"I have to say, it's a miracle that you can survive until now. It can be seen that you have not undergone any training in expression, movement or even appearance. What I am curious about is, are the empire's selection of special agents so casual now?"
The look of shame on Tanaka's face became even stronger. He lowered his head and said, "Tell me, Date-kun, that I am not a spy."
"You're not a spy, why did you come to the city?" Geng Chaozhong was really surprised this time.
"I am from the Yamada Regiment outside the city. Because I understand a little Chinese and the Military Police are in urgent need of manpower, I was temporarily transferred to Peiping to assist them in their work." Tanaka replied.
"Oh," Geng Chaozhong suddenly realized, "it turned out to be a temporary transfer from the Military Police. So, what was your original rank?"
The Gendarmerie is known as the police within the army and the army within the police. They may be proficient in Chinese or have outstanding firearms. In short, they must have certain skills before they can join the Gendarmerie. Only those who perform well in the Gendarmerie can join the special higher education course.
"Senior, I am a sergeant in the army." Tanaka gradually adapted to the atmosphere of the cafe and gradually became more relaxed when speaking.
"In other words, you were actually an ordinary army soldier before?" Geng Chaozhong took a sip of coffee.
"Yes, I'm sorry," Tanaka blushed, "the military police force is short of manpower. Colonel Yamada received an order from his superiors to recruit people from the regiment to join the military police force. If I perform well this time, I will be promoted to the sixth position.
Division Gendarmerie."
"Search and beat to death."
Geng Chaozhong nodded solemnly. He now understood that not only were Chinese spies short of manpower, but Japanese spies were even less available.
Japan's military police only have a few thousand people. After occupying Rehe in Northeast China, hundreds of people were left behind to control local security wherever they went. As more and more territory was occupied, Japan's military police were completely insufficient.
, and this Tanaka, to put it bluntly, is actually a scout and agent in the army. He is not qualified to join the Military Police, the cradle of special agents.
Thinking of this, Geng Chaozhong smiled even sweeter, as if the big bad wolf saw the little white rabbit. He looked at Tanaka with a smile and said:
"Tanaka-kun, so you really hope to join the military police or even the special high school class?"
The treatment and status of the gendarmerie are much higher than those of ordinary army soldiers. As long as they are not stupid, who doesn’t want to join the gendarmerie?
"Yes!" Sure enough, Tanaka's tone became excited, "Our Yamada Regiment sent six samurai to Peking, and I am one of them. I am still very hopeful!"
"I don't think so," Geng Chaozhong shook his head, "but you were lucky enough to meet me."
"Yes, senior, please tell me what your status is in the special high school class. Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask this." Before he finished speaking, Tanaka lowered his head again.
"Your reaction was very fast. When we entered, you killed the caged bird immediately. But reaction is only a necessary quality of a spy, and it is far from enough." Geng Chaozhong said coldly.
Look at Tanaka.
"Also, your dress, figure, habitual movements, hairstyle, everything reveals your identity. In other words, you are just playing the role of a follower, otherwise you would have died long ago."
"In addition, if you are not sure, you should report the situation of meeting me to your superiors as soon as possible instead of meeting me rashly. If I just use you as a bait, you and your superiors may
They are all dead now. Oh, your superiors should not be as stupid as you."
Geng Chaozhong's words pierced Tian Zhong's heart like a sharp sword. Every time Geng Chaozhong said a word, a drop of cold sweat flowed from Tian Zhong's forehead. By the time Geng Chaozhong finished speaking, Tan Zhong was already dripping with sweat.
"Forget it, I've told you so much, you won't be able to learn it in a while, so let's do this," Geng Chaozhong picked up the briefcase in his hand and spread it on the table, "There is a calligraphy and painting in it, which I have learned from
It was stolen from the Forbidden City. If you hand this painting to your superior, you have completed your mission. As for my situation, you don’t need to tell anyone."
"this……"
"Now you should know that our goals are the same. As for where the rest of the cultural relics are, I will track them personally. You don't need to know," Geng Chaozhong stood up as he spoke, and reached out to pat Tanaka on the shoulder, "
Do your best, township party. I hope that when I see you next time, you will have become an elite member of the gendarmerie and even the special high school."
"senior!"
Tanaka was a little excited. Although the other party's words were harsh and even sarcastic, Tanaka knew that every word this senior said was for his own good.
Since joining the army, he has never met a comrade who cares so much about him!
Looking at the senior's back gradually receding, the corners of Tanaka's eyes were moist. In his eyes, the senior's back was getting taller and taller. Perhaps, he was already tall.
"By the way, you should know how to explain it to your superiors!" Geng Chaozhong suddenly turned around.
"Can't I tell the truth?" Tanaka replied.
"Okay, but don't forget, after you were captured by us, you quickly confessed the problem. Do you really plan to tell your superiors these words?" Geng Chaozhong flattened his mouth.
"This..." Tanaka hesitated.
If he tells the truth, his cowardice and betrayal will inevitably be known to his superiors. By then... I'm afraid not only will he have no merit, but he will also be stained forever in the military police!
"Let's do this, you say you saw a man taking this painting to Bona Zhai for identification. You exchanged fire and you killed the enemy. Shopkeeper Qiu was also shot to death. You are afraid that the nearby Chinese army will find out and take the painting after being injured.
He fled the scene with this painting." Geng Chaozhong said calmly.
"Isn't this appropriate?" Tanaka was still a little hesitant.
"Don't be stupid. Shopkeeper Qiu is dead. If you don't tell me or I don't tell, who will know? If you tell me, I'm afraid there will be big trouble! Are you really willing to be arrested and interrogated by the gendarmerie? Until then, don't
When it comes to upgrading, you may not even be able to save your life!" Geng Chaozhong curled his lips disdainfully.
"I understand, I understand." Tanaka nodded repeatedly. The senior had already thought so thoroughly for him, and he had given himself such a big credit. Why didn't he believe in him?
"Okay, but you have to be careful. Don't say you saw these two people, let alone that you were captured. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you!" Geng Chaozhong nodded, and this time he really left.
When Tianzhong saw Geng Chaozhong leaving, he quickly stood up and left the cafe quickly.
But he didn't realize that there was another person behind him...
