At seven o'clock in the evening, Chen Mingxiang's car, protected by two cars, passed through the public concession from the French Concession, and then arrived at the entrance of a Japanese restaurant in Hongkou District.
When passing the Marine Corps Guard checkpoint at the border intersection, the Marine Ensign on duty nodded slightly to him, which proved that the Marine Corps Command had made arrangements.
At this time, several cars were gathering near the checkpoint at the junction of Hongkou District and the public concession. These were of course Chen Mingxiang's bodyguards.
Chen Mingxiang knew that Kitazawaira's behavior definitely did not get the consent of his superior, Lieutenant General Yazaki Kanju, and it was impossible to get the consent of the dispatched army headquarters. Under such circumstances, he was kidnapping, and his own words were
Untenable.
As the Chief of Police, Chen Mingxiang, some arrangements were normal at critical times, and he did not carry out any operations in Hongkou District. I believe no one would say anything. Didn't he make enough fools of himself?
"Hirano-kun, I'm really sorry for asking you to take the initiative to invite me. I'll give you a chance to pay the bill later!"
President Hirano of the Dahu Gas Club was waiting at the door with a friendly smile on his face, but Chen Mingxiang looked at the grimace with the beard and wanted to slap him.
"Yes, Director Chen, please come with me!"
The two entered the restaurant, and when they opened the sliding door of the room, Kitazawa appeared inside, along with four Japanese agents wearing Mao suits and holding pistols. As soon as Chen Mingxiang entered, someone put a gun to his head.
"Hey, Director Kitazawa, what are you trying to do?" Chen Mingxiang said calmly.
"Chen Jun, yesterday I captured an underground party member, Zheng Tonghui, the owner of Yunhua Restaurant in the French Concession. I believe you are familiar with it, right? He confessed that you are a latent agent of the Shancheng Government's Military Command Bureau, codenamed Chunfeng, and you have been collecting intelligence for the Military Command Bureau.
, and passed relevant information to the underground party many times."
"Zheng Tonghui also said that yesterday you took the opportunity of delivering food to reveal to him the contents of the military operations of the underground party troops at the junction of Henan, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces, which were prepared by the divisions of the North China Front."
"This matter is very serious, Mr. Chen, I believe you are innocent, but out of the responsibilities of the imperial intelligence agency, I specially ask you to go to a special place in the Mei Agency to confront Zheng Tonghui. Special measures must be taken in special times.
I hope you can understand the means." Kitazawaping said.
This guy had undisguised murderous intentions towards him, and Chen Mingxiang could definitely see it. Fortunately, he had taken precautions in advance, otherwise something big would have happened!
"Director Kitazawa, I am under the jurisdiction of the Military Police Headquarters. If you want to arrest me, I need to report to the Military Police first." Chen Mingxiang said calmly.
"I will naturally notify the gendarmerie. I don't have to worry about Chen Jun calling me personally. I also ask for your cooperation and tell your bodyguard to go home and wait for you. Don't say anything that shouldn't be said. I believe you won't embarrass me." Bei.
Zeping said.
"Director Kitazawa, although you are the director of the intelligence team of Mei Agency, you are a small army lieutenant and you do not have the power to restrict my actions. If you insist on being so forceful, I can't stop you. But I advise you, don't
Playing with fire and burning yourself!" Chen Mingxiang said.
"Don't take yourself so seriously. You are just a Chinese. My time is precious. I need to verify the situation as soon as possible and deal with this matter as soon as possible. You can also go home early. Let's go now!" Kitazawa said.
Heed Chen Mingxiang’s warning.
After Chen Mingxiang went out, he ordered his bodyguard to go back to Mala Villa and wait in front of Bei Zeping, saying that he had other things to do tonight.
Naturally, the bodyguards who had been given the order long ago did not ask any questions, drove out of the restaurant in advance, and waited outside the border intersection.
Five vehicles and more than thirty people were already waiting here, forming the first interception net. In addition to preparing German-made sniper rifles, they also prepared a heavy machine gun and two light machine guns.
People from the operations section directly under the station were waiting outside the secret detention point of Mei's intelligence team. They were all equipped with automatic firearms, including one heavy machine gun and two light machine guns.
If the first interception net fails and they discover that Chen Mingxiang is not accompanied by a Marine Corps officer when he comes to this place, they will use force to raid the secret detention point.
"Why, you still need to put handcuffs on me?" Chen Mingxiang said coldly, sitting in the back seat of the car.
As soon as he got in the car, two Japanese agents took out a pair of handcuffs and cuffed him. This was the first time he was treated like this, but in fact he was not angry about it. Kitazawa went too far.
, the greater the stimulus to the gendarmerie will be.
"Chen Jun, please forgive me. This is also a necessary procedure. When the truth comes to light, I will serve you a drink to make amends!" Bei Zeping said with a smile while sitting in the passenger seat.
As soon as the car arrived at the checkpoint at the junction of the Laogong Concession and Hongkou District, the Marine Corps second lieutenant on duty raised his hand to indicate that the car should stop for inspection. This was also a necessary procedure.
At this moment, Bei Zeping saw a car coming from the intersection of the public concession. Looking at the license plate, he knew it was a car belonging to the Marine Corps Command.
After the car stopped, Lieutenant Commander Shimada, the captain of the Marine Corps Headquarters' garrison, got out of the car. He seemed to be inspecting his work, and he walked slowly while lighting a cigarette.
Seeing his car, Lieutenant Colonel Shimada walked over. After all, everyone was familiar with him. This may be a purely polite behavior.
Kitazawa should not be neglected. The Mei Agency was not entirely a secret service agency of the Army. There were also people from the Navy in it, so he had no choice but to get out of the car and prepare to deal with it.
When Chen Mingxiang saw Lieutenant Colonel Shimada, he knew that the development of this matter was proceeding exactly as he had imagined, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Kitazawa-kun, you are driving out so late at night. Your Mei agency is really busy with work." Lieutenant Commander Shimada said with a smile.
"Seeing as Shimada-kun has just come back from outside, your Marine Corps affairs are not much worse than those of our Mei Agency." Kitazawa said with a smile.
"New Year's Day is coming soon. There is a local freighter tonight delivering holiday supplies to our Marine Corps. I'll go to the dock to have a look."
"Who is this in the car? Ah, why is it Chen Jun? Are you also involved in the work of the Mei Agency's intelligence team?" Lieutenant Colonel Shimada said seemingly surprised.
It was broken. When Kitazawa Ping saw Shimada Nakasa peeking his head into the car, his heart suddenly sank. Something might go wrong tonight!
He knew very clearly the relationship between Chen Mingxiang and the Marine Corps. It was almost a replica of the Military Police, especially Colonel Ono, Colonel Nakajima and Lieutenant Colonel Shimada. They were frequent visitors to Villa Mara, and they would get together to drink and chat every other day.
!
This Lieutenant Commander Shimada is really nosy. It’s none of your business who is in my car. If you have to take such a curious look, it’s a foul act. Do you understand?
