"Well," Geng Chaozhong also frowned, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he gave Baimu a meaningful look, and whispered: "I wonder if Section Chief Kawasaki is from the Controlling Faction or the Imperial Way Faction?"
"this......."
As soon as Geng Chaozhong said this, Bai Mu's expression suddenly changed and became surprisingly solemn. He looked at Geng Chaozhong with a cautious look and whispered:
"Mr. Zhou knows our situation in Japan very well, right?"
"This is not news." Geng Chaozhong's eyes also had a different meaning. "I heard that in Japan, there have been several incidents of young soldiers from the Imperial Sect assassinating the Tongren faction. I think this case
matter......"
As soon as Geng Chaozhong said this, Bai Mu suddenly fell silent. He lowered his head, picked up the rice balls in the bowl, stuffed them into his mouth and started chewing, while he was thinking silently in his heart.
The Imperial Way faction is composed mainly of young middle- and lower-class Japanese officers. Their goal is for the Emperor to rule personally, and their interests are very simple - military glory. Only when the Emperor rules personally can we get rid of the suppression of lower-level officers by the military bosses and create more military achievements.
Promotion opportunities.
The ruling faction, on the other hand, hopes to maintain the status quo, because most people in the ruling faction are vested interests, and there are also a few nobles. They hope to maintain the current structure, and even have the military dominate everything.
The series of "subjugating superiors" incidents currently occurring in Japan are actually struggles initiated by lower-level officers of the Imperial Order faction against the ruling faction. Things like this have long been commonplace in the country.
And Section Chief Kawasaki is the Imperial Way Sect!
Could it be that this is the ruling party's revenge on the Imperial Road faction?
Baime chewed the rice ball in his mouth, his expression became more and more solemn. He had always felt that something was wrong, and Takeuchi's behavior was also very strange, but it was not until now that he realized that there might be a deeper inside story.
"I heard that Mr. Takeuchi is a noble, right?" Geng Chaozhong next to him spoke again.
"Yes, Mr. Takeuchi was born in Changzhou and came from a family of officials." Bai Mu raised his head and said, his thoughts unknowingly attracted by Geng Chaozhong.
"I don't know about his relationship with the ruling faction..." Geng Chaozhong said half of the sentence.
Yes, Takeuchi-kun is from a family of officials and has inextricable ties with the ruling faction, which is dominated by the upper class. Is it really the ruling faction's revenge on the Imperial Faction?
What's more, the murderer was Takeuchi, a dissolute former diplomat. I'm afraid others would never have dreamed that Section Chief Kawasaki died of murder!
But, do we really need to continue to investigate this matter?
You know, I am also an Imperial Sect!
But why didn't Takeuchi kill himself?
"Takeuchi-kun has a good relationship with you. Besides, your position is not too high, and the timing is not very suitable, so Takeuchi-kun let you go and chose Kawasaki-kun, who is more senior and powerful. Besides, if both of them are
If he dies, I'm afraid the Kanto Agency will have to send someone to deal with the aftermath. By then, the conspiracy of the whole thing will probably be discovered. It's better to leave the matter to Baime-kun, who has a good relationship with me. He can also handle it from
exert influence and guide the direction of things." Geng Chaozhong next to him continued.
Bai Mu couldn't help but nodded secretly.
Yes, he was right. In the conversation in the morgue, Takeuchi clearly wanted to make the whole thing disappear, which was very consistent with his criminal psychology.
"Mr. Zhou, you are scary. You seem to be able to guess what others are thinking." After a long time, Bai Mu finally raised his head and looked at Geng Chaozhong and said.
"It's not me who's scary, it's Takeuchi-kun who's scary." Geng Chaozhong looked at Bai Mu helplessly, "When you went to the salon to find me last night, you asked me whether Section Chief Kawasaki and his driver had been drinking. I haven't answered yet. Behind you
Takeuchi-kun was already nodding to me, and I didn’t know the truth. At that time, I chose to follow Takeuchi-kun’s hint. Later I found that something was wrong, but I had already boarded the pirate ship and could not get off!”
"Search and beat him to death..." Bai Mu suddenly realized.
No wonder Takeuchi and Mr. Zhou cooperated tacitly last night and tried hard to persuade themselves to minimize the big issue. It turned out that everything was already under Takeuchi's control!
"Takeuchi-kun is really scary. He knew that I didn't want to participate in this matter, so he deliberately made it a big deal and turned it into a trivial matter. He wanted to induce you to give up the investigation. I couldn't help it, and it was also in my interests, so I just
I can cooperate, Mr. Bai Mu, I'm sorry!" Geng Chaozhong suddenly stood up and bowed to Bai Mu.
"never mind."
Bai Mu waved his hand. He was a little hesitant now and didn't know whether to continue the investigation. Geng Chaozhong, on the other hand, was still standing there upright, as if waiting for his reply.
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, it was a pleasure meeting you today," Bai Mu swallowed the last bite of the rice ball down his throat, "That's it for today. I will visit you if necessary."
"Okay, then I'll say goodbye."
Geng Chaozhong bowed again, turned around and walked out the door.
Looking at the breakfast that Geng Chaozhong left untouched on the table, Bai Mu suddenly smiled, and then his face turned ugly again.
In the end, should we expose Takeuchi?
...........
When Geng Chaozhong returned to his residence, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning. He had not returned all night. Er Sheng had been waiting anxiously. When he saw Geng Chaozhong coming back smelling of alcohol and with red and swollen eyes, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Don't worry, I'm going to prepare a gift for you." Although Geng Chaozhong didn't look very good, he seemed to be in high spirits.
"You talk about gifts and gifts all the time. You have been talking about them for almost two months. What kind of gift is it?" Er Sheng saw that Geng Chaozhong spoke easily and knew that he was nothing serious. As for what Geng Chaozhong did, she had no idea.
ask.
This is an extremely smart woman who knows what to ask and what not to ask.
Geng Chaozhong smiled, leaned into Er Sheng's ear, and whispered a few words.
"What?!"
Er Sheng's face suddenly turned pale. She looked at Geng Chaozhong in surprise. After a while, she muttered:
"Kawasaki is dead, should we leave Peiping?"
"No need," Geng Chaozhong waved his hand, "I have taken care of the follow-up matters. No one will know about this matter. You can rest assured that I will handle the matter."
"Thank you," Er Sheng's eyes showed a mixture of gratitude and fear, "Actually, you don't have to do this. The devils have been in China for so long and killed tens of thousands of people. We really don't need to record our hatred in China.
On someone alone."
"That's different," Geng Chaozhong shook his head. "National hatred is national hatred, private hatred is private hatred, and they cannot be confused. I have always believed that if a person cannot resolve his personal hatred, what kind of national hatred can he avenge? In this matter, no matter what,
, I must do it.”
"Thank you," Er Sheng said thank you for the second time. She looked seriously into Geng Chaozhong's eyes, "but from now on, you have to promise me one thing."
"I will not agree." Geng Chaozhong knew what Er Sheng was going to say. "I have said that personal hatred is personal hatred. As long as there is hatred, I will definitely avenge it. As for the danger, you don't have to worry. I will not be stupid enough to show off my courage.
, you can rest assured on this."
"Okay," Er Sheng could only nod helplessly, "I know I can't convince you or change you, but I still want to say that before doing anything in the future, you must think about yourself first."
"Well, don't worry," Geng Chaozhong looked out the window, "this matter will have a very happy ending soon."
