Chapter 79: Meeting Okada (please vote for favorites)
“Reporting to Major,” a Japanese officer said, “It is basically certain that people from the China Lixing Society’s Secret Service conducted a raid on Yang Wanwan’s house. Many imperial agents were broken into pieces, and it is suspected that one imperial agent was seriously injured and captured.”
“I want to know the news about Kawada-kun!” Okada Toshihiko waved his arms with a ferocious expression. “Did Kawada-kun serve his country loyally, or was he captured by the Chinese? I want to know the exact news.”
“Sorry, Major, there is no definite news yet. The incident happened suddenly, and the Chinese agents and police are on tight alert.”
“Then go and investigate!” Okada Toshihiko said coldly, “Wake up the ‘Jue Ruler’ and find out this matter as soon as possible!”
“Major Commander, the Chinese people must be extra vigilant at this time, and the ‘Jie Zhi’ will be awakened at this time…”
"This is an order!"
"yes!"
Okada Toshihiko was a little irritable. Of course, he knew that awakening the 'Zhi Ruler' at this moment would most likely expose this senior agent who had been lurking for many years.
Okada Toshihiko doesn't have many ace agents like "Jiechi", and the loss of any one will make him feel heartbroken.
But he had no choice.
Kawada Nagakichi’s identity is too important.
He is the assistant to General Kenji Doihara.
This identity is not the most critical.
The key is the countless confidential information that this identity has access to.
Kawada Nagakichi died, and he would feel sad for his good friend.
However, if Kawada Nagakichi is captured alive by the Lixingshe Secret Service, this is definitely something Okada Toshihiko would not want to see even more.
He was willing to believe in Kawada Nagakichi's loyalty to the empire.
However, he cannot rule out unexpected situations.
…
As soon as Sanbon came in, he saw pieces of porcelain on the ground and Toshihiko Okada pacing back and forth with an anxious face.
“Sanben-kun, how are you doing?”
“I reported to the police department’s internal network that this operation was independently completed by the Secret Service, and the police were only responsible for the peripheral investigation work.” Sanben shook his head with a serious expression, “So, the specific situation is not yet known.”
“The Chinese people acted so decisively this time, without any leakage beforehand.” Okada Toshihiko said.
“It’s not like our old adversaries are acting in such earnest,” he continued.
"It's not He Qichen." Sanben also shook his head, He Qichen didn't have this ability.
“That’s the Secret Service Headquarters!” Okada Toshihiko and Sanben looked at each other, and both nodded.
They have received information that the Lixingshe Secret Service has an agency directly affiliated with the headquarters in Hangzhou. However, because the other party has done a good job of keeping secrets, the Hangzhou Japanese Special Envoy has tried his best to find out no further information.
…
Jingle Bell.
The phone on the desk rang.
Okada Toshihiko picked up the phone and heard the report on the phone. He was surprised at first, and then said with surprise, "Bring him in."
“Okada-kun, what’s wrong?” Sanbon asked.
“An imperial citizen came to see me with Mr. Kawada’s business card and said he had something important to report.” Okada Toshihiko said.
"Take Kawada-kun's business card?" Sanben also showed excitement, "Could it be that Kawada-kun escaped?"
The news he most wanted to hear was that Kawada Nagakichi had escaped capture. However, due to the severity of the raid, he was unable to come to the Japanese Concession and could only ask an imperial citizen to deliver the message.
If so, this is the best result.
After a while, a middle-aged man in a kimono came in with an extremely handsome young man in a windbreaker.
"Who is your Excellency?" Okada Toshihiko took the business card from the butler's hand. It was indeed Kawada Nagakichi's business card in Manchuria.
This surprised Okada Toshihiko. Kawada-kun is an extremely cautious person and actually gave the other party his business card in Manchuria. This shows that this person has gained Kawada-kun's trust.
"Imperial Citizen Kentaro Miyazaki, I have been entrusted by others to find Major Okada Toshihiko. I have something important to report." Cheng Qianfan glanced at the two people in the room. One was a short man in a suit, and the other was a Japanese soldier. A middle-aged man in military uniform.
“Are you Kentaro Miyazaki?” Sanben, who had been looking at Cheng Qianfan coldly, suddenly asked.
…
At this moment.
Qingdao, Xiaogang Wharf.
Tao Weiran carried the wooden box and followed the bustling crowd ashore.
Stepping onto the land of Qingdao, he looked up and looked at the city that had been robbed many times by Germany and Japan, and finally returned to the territory of China fourteen years ago.
Even though it was late at night, floodlights were installed at the pier and there were street lights on both sides of the road.
The nearby buildings are still vaguely visible.
This is a city with a strong German style and a Japanese style.
The mark of being colonized twice cannot be eliminated in just fourteen years.
Of course, Tao Weiran is a rough man. He doesn’t understand architecture and has no time to appreciate the night view. He is waiting for someone to pick him up.
He took two steps and came under a streetlight so that the contact could easily identify him.
In a grocery store about dozens of meters away from him.
"is it him?"
A thin man took the telescope:
“Orange-red wooden box, wearing a peaked cap on his head, holding a black long-handled umbrella in his hand, and wearing a black and white scarf.”
"should be."
“Go ahead, you know how to say it.”
"Know."
Tao Weiran carried the wooden box and walked for more than ten steps when he saw a thin man wearing a black top hat and holding a newspaper in his hand walking towards him.
“Sir, do you want to stay in the hotel?”
“I’m not staying at the hotel, my friend will pick me up later.”
“What a coincidence, I was also asked by my friend to pick him up.”
“What’s your friend’s last name?” Tao Weiran asked.
“My surname is Xu, Xu Baihe.” The thin man said, “My surname is Ouyang, with the single character Lu.”
Tao Weiran's eyes changed slightly, and then he was overjoyed and shook hands with the other person, "Hello, I'm Lu Weiran."
"Brother Lu, please." Ouyang Lu said happily, "I have already made arrangements to hold a banquet to welcome Brother Lu."
…
Hearing that Sanbon actually knew Kentaro Miyazaki, Toshihiko Okada was surprised. At the same time, he also had a little more trust in this imperial citizen who suddenly visited.
“Miyazaki-kun is a fellow countryman of Kawada-kun.” Mimoto introduced Toshihiko Okada, “Kawada-kun mentioned Miyazaki-kun to me.”
"That's it." Okada Toshihiko nodded, "Miyazaki-kun, you just said that there is something important..."
"Yes." "Kentaro Miyazaki" said with a serious expression, "Something happened to Mr. Kawada. He was rounded up by the Chinese."
“Where is Kawada-kun now?” Toshihiko Okada immediately asked eagerly.
"I don't know." 'Miyazaki Kentaro''s face was full of worry, "Two hours ago, when I was hiding from the Chinese military police, I met Kawada Atsuhito, the nephew of the Kawada clan who was also avoiding the military police search. It was Atsushi who informed me that something happened to Kawada-kun."
"Is Kawada Atsuhito okay?" Sanbon suddenly asked with an excited expression.
