Asano Ryoichi's mood was very complicated. Deep down in his heart, he wanted to keep the secret of the military commander as much as possible, but also wanted to reveal information that would interest Hattori Hikoo. Only in this way would his family be truly safe.
He regretted saying so much. He just explained how to contact his superiors. There was no need to involve more and more.
Hattori Hikoo asked: "Who gave you the secret letter?"
Asano said: "I didn't see anyone, so I went to the military quarters to get towels and socks. I casually put the things on the window sill. When I came out after signing, the secret letter was pressed under the towel."
Hattori Hikoo pondered for a moment and said: "That is to say, this person knows your true identity... Can it be understood this way?"
"……Can."
"Where's the letter?"
"Burned."
"The content of the letter!"
"Let me pay close attention to whether Li Jinshan has any signs of betrayal and surrender to the enemy. Once confirmed, I will fire a warning shot!"
Hattori Hikoo knew very well that it was quite risky for Asano to fire a warning shot at the gendarmerie. Although he could take advantage of the chaos and sneak through, the chance of being discovered was also quite high.
If Asano did not lie, it means that Li Jinshan is an important figure. If he is willing to confess, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction!
"Asano, are you making up a story for me?" Hattori Hikoo looked at Asano Ryoichi.
"Major, I guarantee that everything I said is true!"
"If you want me to believe you, there is a way...but you must cooperate with us!"
"What do you want me to do?"
"It's very simple. Just pretend that nothing happened. You are still the captain of the gendarmerie. You are still waiting for orders from your superiors according to the previous contact information!"
"I see……"
Hattori Hikoo turned around and said to Miyamoto: "The information about Asano's matter must be sealed and no one is allowed to know about it. How many people know about it?"
Miyamoto thought for a while and said: "Five."
"These five people are to be monitored secretly, and they are ordered to strictly keep secrets, and they are not allowed to leave the gendarmerie for even half a step!"
"yes!"
…………
Nine o'clock in the morning, Hattori Hikoo's house.
The servant brought the tea and said respectfully: "Mr. Jiang, please sit down for a moment. The lady will be out soon."
Jiang Xinyu said politely: "Okay, thank you."
He came today in the name of visiting Hattori Mina, and mainly came to meet Chang Hongling.
Having just received instructions from the headquarters last night, Chang Hongling replaced Qin Li and became the leader of the latent team. Jiang Xinyu was directly led by her.
But Chang Hongling is now under house arrest and can no longer contact the outside world. Jiang Xinyu can only find excuses to visit in person.
Chang Hongling came down from upstairs, Jiang Xinyu stood up and said, "Hello, Mrs. Hattori."
Chang Hongling smiled and said: "Captain Jiang is a rare visitor."
"I heard that Mina was frightened, so I came here to take a look."
"Don't worry, Mina is fine..." Chang Hongling turned to the servant and said: "Captain Jiang is a distinguished guest, so he must treat him well. Bring the box of British toffee. Oh, by the way, President Sato sent it.
Shanghai dim sum, bring some of everything.”
"Yes." The servant agreed and stepped back.
Jiang Xinyu whispered: "Hello, team leader, I received an order from the headquarters to come and join you."
Chang Hongling picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of hot tea, and said: "I can't move now and can't carry out my work. I must enter the hibernation period. The intelligence liaison of the latent team can only be done by you."
"I understand, how to do it specifically?"
"You go to the east wall of Laojiuyoufang..."
Ten minutes later, Hattori Mina freshened up and came out of the room. Jiang Xinyu didn't say hello to her before coming, just to create an opportunity to talk to Chang Hongling alone.
Chang Hongling smiled and said: "Are you willing to come out of your room?"
Hattori Mina muttered: "I'm thirsty, come out and drink a bowl of tea."
Looking at the haggard look on Hattori Mina's face, Jiang Xinyu asked with concern: "You didn't sleep well last night?"
Hattori Mina said gloomily: "Well, I woke up in the middle of the night with a fright and never fell back to sleep."
Jiang Xinyu: "Go to the hospital and prescribe some sedatives, and you'll be fine after a while."
Chang Hongling: "Captain Jiang, you came just in time to persuade Meina. The doctor prescribed sleeping pills, but she refused to take anything."
Hattori Mina pouted and said: "That kind of medicine is bad for the brain and nerves, so I won't take it. My brother always says that I am stupid. If my brain is damaged, I will be even more stupid."
Jiang Xinyu smiled and said: "As long as you control the dosage of the medicine and don't take it for a long time, it's not that serious."
Hattori Mina tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Then I'll take one tonight to avoid nightmares!"
Chang Hongling shook her head and said: "You don't believe what the doctor says, and you don't believe what my brother says, let alone me. It seems Captain Jiang's words are effective!"
Hattori Mina rolled her eyes at her and said, "How dare you say that? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have needed to take sleeping pills!"
Chang Hongling picked up a piece of snack and stuffed it into Hattori Mina's mouth, and said: "In front of Captain Jiang, I formally apologize to you! Alas, I was actually quite scared..."
Hattori Mina was eating snacks and said vaguely: "Ayako, I really admire you for daring to shoot and kill."
Chang Hongling said softly: "When my father was alive, he often carried a pistol with him. It was completely a conditioned reflex. Haven't you seen that I can't even eat recently?"
"I thought you were angry with your brother and didn't like to eat..." Hattori Mina peeled off a piece of toffee and handed it to Jiang Xinyu.
Mentioning this matter, Chang Hongling's eyes immediately turned gloomy, and she sighed softly: "Maybe a little bit..."
Jiang Xinyu sighed in his heart, no matter what the reason was, he shot and killed his former lover with his own hands, but he could still be so calm and composed. The coldness shown by this woman was really rare!
Hattori Mina glanced at the clock and said, "Xinyu, I've learned a few more Chinese dishes. Shall we eat them at home at noon?"
Jiang Xinyu still had something to discuss with Chang Hongling, so he said: "It is better to obey orders than to be respectful, otherwise there will be more interruptions."
Hattori Mina coquettishly said: "Why bother me, there are no outsiders at home."
As she spoke, she stood up and walked around and said: "Mother Liang, we have guests at noon, please prepare a few more dishes..."
Watching Hattori Mina walk into the kitchen, Chang Hongling said: "Mina is really nice to you. After I got married, I haven't seen her enter the kitchen a few times."
Jiang Xinyu changed the topic and said: "Is Asano Ryoichi you said reliable?"
"He is from Ryukyu and hates the Japanese even more than we do. He has carried out several missions before, so I don't think there is any problem."
"oh……"
Seeing that Jiang Xinyu was a little hesitant, Chang Hongling said: "Asano's favorite poem is Mr. Wen Yiduo's Song of the Seven Sons. He has a greater sense of identity with China!"
Jiang Xinyu learned from Chang Hongling that Asano Ryoichi was a soldier and had received more than ten days of special agent training intermittently. He had been hiding in the military police for a long time. Could it be that his lack of experience would expose him...
