Cheng Qianfan, who appears as Xiao Mian, is completely different from himself.
His face was cold and cold, his deep eyes were a bit ruthless, and there was also a bit of unruliness and cruelty that looked down on life and death.
He looked at Chang Shenyi coldly and said, no, this person should be called Japanese agent Oku Hideo now.
"Very good, Mr. Dajiu, you are very candid. This is the beginning of a good cooperation." Cheng Qianfan squeezed out a smile on his cold face.
"Sir, I think you have misunderstood. I just don't want to be misunderstood as a Chinese. I won't say anything. Just kill me." Oku Hideo spat out a mouthful of blood and said.
Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "You are not willing to die."
"Every imperial warrior is ready to sacrifice his life for His Majesty the Emperor at any time!" Hideo Oku shouted impassionedly.
…
Cheng Qianfan shook his head and stared at this person with a faint smile.
He had listened carefully to Jiang Mulezi's report on Chang Shenyi's arrest.
This is a guy who appears to be strong and unyielding, but is actually very afraid of death. This is the conclusion he has come to.
He studied the unburned scraps of paper brought back by Jiang Mule.
What surprised him was that judging from the remaining scraps of paper, these documents were not supposed to be confidential documents. They were mostly survey data about the French Concession's port throughput and the trading firms' import and export goods.
It would be wrong to say that such a document is not important.
After the fall of Shanghai, the Japanese army controlled the river, and the national government was unable to directly transport strategic materials through Shanghai, the busiest port in the Far East.
Chinese ships were restricted, expelled, and even bombed. However, the Japanese army had no way to deal with European and American cargo ships such as Britain, France, and the United States for the time being. The national government secretly transported supplies through cargo ships from Britain, France, the United States, and other Western countries.
Therefore, these investigative reports by Hideo Oku still have important reference value for the Japanese army.
However, such information is of little value to the government concerned.
Moreover, the national government has always known that the Japanese were secretly investigating the freight situation.
Therefore, these documents indeed need to be burned and destroyed, but Cheng Qianfan believes that the most valuable information should be in Hideo Oku's mind.
Therefore, at the critical moment, if Oku Hideo was really determined to "dedicate his life to the emperor," he should have completed the suicide process before Jiang Mulezi broke in with someone.
According to Jiang Mulezi, before breaking into the room where Chang Shenyi was, a woman tried to sneak attack Jiang Laosi, and Jiang Mulezi was forced to shoot.
The gunshot must have alerted 'Chang Shenyi', which gave him enough time to 'commit suicide'.
However, when Jiang Luozi and others rushed into the room, the man was still busy burning these documents. When he saw Jiang Luozi and others coming in, he took a dagger and prepared to commit suicide.
This is not in line with the professional qualities of a professional Japanese agent.
After searching, Jiang Mulezi found a loaded Nanfang pistol in the drawer next to Chang Shenyi.
If you want to commit suicide, wouldn't it be faster and more convenient to use a pistol?
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan concluded that this guy was afraid of death!
On the one hand, he may have really wanted to burn these confidential information at the time, but there is another possibility:
He panicked and wanted to commit suicide, but was afraid of death. He was subconsciously looking for reasons for why he didn't have time to commit suicide.
This is a smart man.
He knew that the other party probably wanted to capture him alive, so he chose to commit suicide with a dagger instead of a pistol, which gave Jiang Mulezi the opportunity to capture him alive.
Or, to put it more bluntly, this person’s will to commit suicide is not firm. He pins his hope of survival on the enemy, which is also an excuse for himself to survive:
It’s not that I don’t want to break it, it’s that it’s too late!
…
Of course, all this is just Cheng Qianfan's guess based on the situation reported by Jiang Mulezi.
However, now he has basically confirmed his suspicion.
'Chang Shenyi' categorically denied that he was a 'traitor' and spoke his Japanese name 'proudly', which seemed to be a sign of perseverance.
In fact, it was a small calculation in this person's mind. He knew that the Chinese people hated the traitors even more than the Japanese invaders.
In addition, the value and importance of a Japanese agent are by no means comparable to that of ordinary traitors.
Important means that they will not be executed easily.
Looking at Hideo Oku, he thought of a person: Hideya Eguchi.
Eguchi Hideya was also an extremely egoist. Cheng Qianfan keenly captured Eguchi Hideya's psychological changes when he was in Hangzhou at that time, and gave this man a reason to confess and betray Japan:
He was forced to speak for the lives of other colleagues when Cheng Qianfan pointed his gun at other Japanese special forces.
However, Oku Hideo is far worse than Eguchi Hide.
He was not decisive enough and looked forward and backward.
…
Being stared at by Cheng Qianfan's sinister smile and eyes, Oku Hideo felt his scalp numb.
The Chinese spy chief opposite gave him a very terrifying feeling. At this moment, he felt that he was the poor prey, and the other person was like a cat playing with a mouse, trying to figure out how to exploit him.
"Actually, I don't care whether you are afraid of death or not." Cheng Qianfan chuckled, "My men have dozens of ways to make you talk."
"Come on, the warriors of the empire are fearless." Hideo Oku narrowed his eyes and shouted while forcing himself to be calm.
"Have you considered it?" Cheng Qianfan stood up from the chair and walked towards Hideo Oku. He took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and stuffed it into Hideo Oku's mouth.
Then he waved, Hao Zai understood, picked up the red-hot soldering iron and handed it over.
Cheng Qianfan smiled and heated the cigarette with a red-hot iron.
Hideo Oku looked horrified and subconsciously wanted to twist his body.
Cheng Qianfan's expression changed, and he laughed ferociously, "Don't move, be careful of burning yourself."
He grabbed Oku Hideo's hair with his left hand and said with a fierce look, "I will light the cigarette for you personally. If you don't smoke, you won't give me face."
Oku Hideo was so frightened that he smoked a cigarette heavily, the flames of the cigarette flickering.
"Very good, very good, that's what's right." Cheng Qianfan's face twitched and he squeezed out a smile, "I'm good to you, you give me face, that's good."
As he said that, he grabbed Oku Hideo's left hand and pulled hard. Oku Hideo felt pain and had to open his mouth.
"You dropped the cigarette because you didn't give me face." Cheng Qianfan said with a hoarse voice and a cold face.
Hideo Oku looked horrified and quickly bit the cigarette with his teeth.
"Very good, very good." Cheng Qianfan threw away the soldering iron.
He touched his palms and a smile appeared on his face again, "That's good."
Then, he turned around and walked towards his seat, talking as he walked.
His voice was hoarse and gloomy, "If you finish smoking this cigarette, you still haven't opened your mouth to confess."
He looked at Qiao Chuntao who was silent and said, "It's time for you to show off your interrogation skills."
A trace of excitement flashed across Qiao Chuntao's handsome face. He looked at Oku Hideo with hot eyes, "If this subordinate takes action, it may be cruel. This person will think that death is such a wonderful thing."
"It's up to you." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "I just want a confession."
…
Cheng Qianfan sat back on his seat, tilted his head to one side, raised a cruel arc at the corner of his mouth, and stared at Hideo Oku.
Oku Hideo swallowed, he subconsciously took a drag on the cigarette and the ashes fell.
His expression suddenly changed, and he held the cigarette carefully, fearing that the cigarette would fall and burn too fast.
"By the way, that's it." Cheng Qianfan stroked his hands, "Jun Dajiu, enjoy this cigarette slowly."
As he said that, he glanced at Hao Zai, "What are you doing standing there in a daze?"
Hao Zai glared at Yang Changnian and said quickly, "Go, hurry up and get a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks for the team leader. The team leader is in a good mood and will appreciate it carefully later."
Cheng Qianfan nodded with satisfaction.
