Although the Asia Hotel banquet hall is not decorated with red and green lights, it still has a festive atmosphere. Today is the wedding day of Jiang Xinyu and Hattori Mina.
Xiao Taohong walked upstairs with Ray Ban on her arm and whispered: "Don't drink today, you will talk nonsense after drinking too much..."
Ray-Ban said impatiently: "From the time I left home to now, there is no end!"
"Aren't I worried about you getting into trouble?"
"Today I'm here to drink Xin Yu's wedding wine. What's wrong if I don't even drink?"
Xiao Taohong wanted to say something else, but Jiang Xinyu came over quickly and said, "Hey, thank you both for coming, please come in."
Xiao Taohong immediately put on a smile and said: "Xinyu, congratulations to you, I wish you a long life together and a son soon!"
Jiang Xinyu said politely: "Thank you."
Lei Ban looked at Jiang Xinyu in a suit and leather shoes, and said with a smile: "Okay, he really looks like a groom!"
Jiang Xinyu said: "Lei Ban, drink less today, don't cause trouble for me!"
Xiao Taohong rolled her eyes at Lei Ban and said, "If you don't listen to me, you should listen to Xin Yu's words, right?"
Lei Ban patted his chest and said: "Xinyu, put your heart in your stomach, I can only drink one glass of wine today!"
Jiang Xinyu nodded and said, "That's good."
Entering the banquet hall, looking at the emptiness, Lei Ban said in surprise: "Xinyu, the auspicious time is coming, why are there so few guests?"
"We didn't invite that many people." Jiang Xinyu simply replied, then turned around to greet other guests.
Lei Pen said to Xiao Taohong: "What do you think Xinyu thinks? A wedding day should be lively and lively. When I married you, I even hosted more than a dozen tables of flower wine..."
Xiao Taohong raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "What did you say?"
Ray-Ban reached out and slapped himself lightly and said, "You're so talkative!"
Xiao Taohong was still angry and said: "I think you meant it!"
"Really not... Look, look, the bride is out!" Lei Ban quickly changed the subject. He didn't want to argue with Xiao Taohong here.
"Miss Mina is really beautiful..." Xiao Taohong's eyes were immediately attracted.
A small stage was set up in the banquet hall, with a microphone standing in the middle. Mina Hattori took her brother's arm and walked to the stage.
Hattori Mina wore a white wedding dress, a garland of flowers on her head, and a smile on her pure and lovely face. Under the spotlight, she looked like an angel descending to the world!
Hattori Hikoo walked to the microphone, looked around at the guests present, and said: "Today is Mina's wedding day. It is a great honor to invite you all. I am here to thank you all!"
Amidst sparse applause, Hattori Hikoo continued: "As an imperial soldier, when the war is urgent, you naturally know what is important and what is important. Therefore, I only invited some close relatives and friends today, and many people were not notified.
...Jiang Xinyu, please come up!"
Jiang Xinyu had been waiting aside for a long time. When he heard Hattori Hikoo calling him, he hurriedly walked to the stage.
Hattori Hikoo took his sister's hand and said to Jiang Xinyu: "I have taken care of Mina for twenty years, and now I hand this baton to you. I hope you can treat her well and wholeheartedly!"
Jiang Xinyu said respectfully: "Don't worry, I will do it."
Miyamoto hurriedly walked in with a nervous expression, and almost bumped into President Sato. Hattori Hikoo saw this and knew that something serious must have happened, otherwise Miyamoto, who had always been steady, would not have behaved in such a panic.
"Is something wrong?" Hattori Hikoo walked off the stage and came to Miyamoto.
Miyamoto whispered: "Commander Uchida wants you to see him immediately!"
"What happened?"
"The plainclothes team was ambushed in the east of Yushu Ridge..."
Hattori Hikoo was surprised and said: "How is the situation?"
Miyamoto lowered his head and said in a harsh voice: "All fifty people were broken into pieces!"
"How is this possible? How could the enemy know the whereabouts of the plainclothes team?"
"Major, Commander Uchida is still waiting for you..."
Hattori Hikoo was so anxious that he didn't bother to explain to everyone, and strode out in a hurry.
The guests looked at each other in shock. My sister was getting married, and my only relative suddenly left midway. It was really confusing.
Poseidon Temple Garrison Headquarters.
Uchida Ginnosuke looked at Hattori Hikoo, who was standing with his hands down, and said: "Hattori-kun, I heard that today is the day that your sister will leave the cabinet. I am very happy to congratulate you. Congratulations!"
He said congratulations, but there was no smile on his face.
Hattori Hikoo bowed and said: "Thank you very much, Commander..."
Uchida suddenly said in a stern voice: "Today is a happy day for your Hattori family, but for me, it's like a knife piercing my chest!"
Hattori Hikoo stood upright and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, the plainclothes team was ambushed by the enemy. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly to see how the news was leaked!"
Uchida walked out from behind the desk, walked in front of Hattori Hikoo twice, then stopped and said coldly: "The entire team is the best of the best selected from various departments in Ijin. In just one month, they
If I am buried in your hands, do you still have the nerve to ask me for a thorough investigation?"
Hattori Hikoo didn't know much about Uchida's temperament, and he didn't understand why the new commander was so furious because of the loss of a small force of fifty men.
"I sent people to check the scene. There are no traces of gas bombs being fired. Hattori-kun, can you tell me what's going on?"
"This... still needs to be investigated slowly."
"The poison gas bombs fell into the hands of the enemy and they were very passive towards us. The League of Nations has been accusing the Imperial Army of using poison gas bombs, but they have no evidence. Now... alas!"
Hattori Hikoo understood that the reason why Uchida was so angry was that the annihilation of the plainclothes team was only a secondary reason. The capture of the gas bomb was the key to the problem!
"Your Excellency, Commander, the so-called League of Nations is controlled by the Americans. Japan and the United States are now hostile countries. What will happen even if they get evidence?" Hattori Hikoo said cautiously.
Uchida stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the bright sun shining outside, and said: "Hattori-kun, please tell me honestly, what do you think the empire's chances of winning are in this war?"
"Although the empire has suffered a temporary setback, we still have millions of brave and capable warriors..."
"Okay, okay, stop talking!"
After a moment of silence, Uchida said slowly: "The battle at Zhijiang shocked the government and the public. Since the war began, the empire has never suffered such a disastrous defeat in the Far East. If we continue to be arrogant, such a defeat will happen again!"
Turning around, Uchida looked at Hattori Hikoo for a long time and said: "I am now officially informing you that you will be relieved of your position as captain of the military police force and will temporarily stay in the military police force to see the consequences!"
