Shortly after Li Qingshan left, there was a knock on the door. Zhao Kezhen put the envelope away in his arms and shouted "come in".
"Director, Gendarmerie Major Nobuyoshi Muto is here to visit." The assistant walked in and said.
"Please, please come quickly!" Zhao Kezhen seemed to have changed, with an excited look on his face.
"Director Zhao, why are you so willing to see me today?"
A slightly stiff voice came from outside the door, and accompanied by the sound of leather boots hitting the floor, Muto walked into the office with a smile on his face.
"General Wu Teng, you are finally here!" Zhao Kezhen wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a few steps forward eagerly, "General, please take a seat quickly!"
Seeing Zhao Kezhen's arrogant expression, Wu Teng couldn't help but smile. He walked to a chair and sat down, smiling:
"Zhao Sang, I just received news that you had a car accident outside Dongzhimen. Are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay," Zhao Kezhen wiped the sweat from his head again and said timidly: "To be honest, it was not a car accident, but someone wanted to kill me."
"Oh? Is this happening?" Muto pretended to be surprised.
"Yes, it's absolutely true!" Zhao Kezhen nodded vigorously, "I'm not stupid, they are just here for me!"
"Who are these people you are talking about?" Muto's face was full of curiosity.
Zhao Kezhen smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "To be honest, I just wrote a statement to do something for Mr. Yang Xingfo, and organized the education circles in Peking to jointly petition the Nanjing government to investigate the real culprit. Unexpectedly, just yesterday
I handed over the manuscript and this is what happened today."
After saying that, Zhao Kezhen took out a manuscript from the drawer and handed it over, saying, "Look, this is the manuscript."
Wu Teng took the manuscript, read it carefully, and then suddenly raised his head and said: "It turns out that Zhao Sang wanted to do it for Mr. Yang Xingfo, and that's why he was killed. I just don't know who is the person who wants to kill you?"
"Who else," Zhao Kezhen pointed to the road, "They dare to kill Yang Xingfo, so who am I? Maybe they have long been dissatisfied with my contact with your country, and now that something like this happened again, they decided to treat me
Kill the killer!"
"Mr. Zhao's words make sense," Muto nodded, "Now you should understand the painstaking efforts of our Empire of Japan, right? Nanjing's cruelty and wanton behavior are far from representing the voice of the entire Chinese people. Now you can see them clearly
Are you still planning to stand on their side?”
"This..." Zhao Kezhen said with a tangled face and a bitter look on his face:
"I plan to resign and go into seclusion and ignore political affairs. They probably won't kill me all!"
"Zhao Sang, you are a smart man. Since Nanjing has decided to get rid of you, it will never stop there. What's more, you already know the true identity of the murderer. How can they let you tell this situation? I think
, you'd better recognize the reality and make plans early!" Muto said in a coaxing way.
Zhao Kezhen shook his head with a grimace and said: "I have already thought about it and will publish this matter in the newspaper this afternoon. As long as I die, people all over the country will know who did it. They just didn't bring it upon themselves.
This way I can keep myself safe."
"Zhao Sang, don't be stupid. When Mr. Yang was assassinated, people all over the country didn't know who was responsible. Would they care about this? I think if you put this matter in the newspaper, you might die faster!"
Muto looked disapproving.
As soon as these words came out, it seemed that the last illusion in Zhao Kezhen's heart was shattered. He slumped down, leaned softly on the chair, and whispered: "You are right, they will not be afraid of this...
..”
A smile appeared on Wu Teng's face, he leaned forward, stared at Zhao Kezhen and said sincerely:
"Okay Mr. Zhao, your willingness to see me today means that you know the answer in your heart. I guarantee here that as long as you are willing, the door of the Japanese Empire will always be open to you, as long as Mr. Zhao can cooperate with us.
, I promise that Fuxing Society will never touch a hair on your head!"
"Cooperation?" Zhao Kezhen's cloudy eyes seemed to have a little more hope.
........
"Congratulations, Muto-san, for finally taking down this stubborn guy!"
Outside the Education Office, Kazuo Eshu saw Mutoshi walking out with great satisfaction and quickly complimented him.
"Haha, these Chinese people just refuse to eat and drink fine wine. Consul Koizumi always talks about being gentle. In my opinion, bayonets and bullets are always the best tools!" Muto said with a smile on his face.
"What Muto-san said is that this time Zhao Kezhen was captured without any effort on our part. Nanjing really helped us a lot!" Kazuo Jiangzhou said with a smile.
"By the way, have the people who were chasing the Fuxing Society agents come back?" Muto's expression suddenly changed.
"Not yet, it should be soon!" Kazuo Jiangzhou also looked into the distance.
"Um......."
Muto nodded, and just as he was about to walk out, a two-seater motorcycle drove over quickly at the corner of the street. A Japanese military policeman quickly jumped out of the car, ran to Muto and reported with a panic face:
"Report to Colonel, our people were ambushed in Backwater Alley, and the whole army was wiped out!"
"What? How is that possible?!"
Mu Teng opened his mouth wide at once, like a basin of cold water poured on his head, and the good mood he had just subdued Zhao Kezhen suddenly disappeared.
"Yes, we have checked and all the imperial warriors have been loyal to the emperor!" the military policeman said as if he were mourning for his heir.
"idiot!"
Muto was furious. Unexpectedly, after waiting for the rabbit for a while, not only did the rabbit run away, but he was also blinded!
Next to him, Ezhou Kazuo also looked stiff. He glanced at Muto and said, "Colonel, how about we go to the scene and have a look?"
"No need!" Muto waved his hand suddenly, "Immediately issue an order and use all kinds of forces to search the whole city. I don't believe that two cars can disappear without a trace in Beiping!"
........
On the outskirts of Peking, a black car was speeding.
"Brother Six, where are we going?" Wang Jianqiu couldn't help but ask as he watched the car drive further and further away.
"You guys find a place to hide in the countryside for a few days, and don't come back for a few days." Geng Chaozhong manipulated the steering wheel skillfully.
"Why? We have already killed all the enemies!" Xie Yan also interjected.
"Kill them all, but it's broad daylight and there are a lot of patrols along the way. Besides, can you guarantee that Zhao Lijun's men will not be caught? Once they fail and are captured, we will all be finished!" Geng Chaozhong bit out.
Ya said.
"Sixth Brother said that." Both of them nodded.
"You didn't tell Zhao Lijun and the others about my identity, right?" Geng Chaozhong asked.
"No, as you ordered, I will only meet with them outside." Wang Jianqiu replied.
"That's good," Geng Chaozhong nodded and found a place to park the car. "You spread out and find a place to stay nearby. I'll go back and check the situation. You can come back when there's no problem."
