Chapter 1030 ‘Tacit understanding’ between teachers and students
Hyoutaro Imamura had a sullen face, leaning back on his chair, his eyes flickering.
Imamura Kogoro poured out the ashes from the gilt incense burner and put in new mosquito-repellent incense.
As the weather gets hotter and hotter, there are more mosquitoes.
“Kentaro has always been smart and sensible.” Imamura Kogoro said, shaking his head, “However, this time Kentaro did something wrong.”
Hyoutaro Imamura lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then placed the cigarette on the ashtray, watching the cigarette slowly and quietly being consumed.
He glanced at Imamura Kogoro.
"Kentaro shouldn't say those words, it will make things difficult for you, counselor." Imamura Kogoro said.
Hyoutaro Imamura understood what Kogoro meant:
Some things don’t need to be said, and some things can be done but not said.
Kentaro already had a hatred for Naito. Now after this incident, Kentaro may have become determined to get rid of Naito.
With the cover identity of Kentaro Miyazaki and the power and skills of "Mr. Cheng Xiao", it is not too difficult to get rid of Tsubasa Naito in secret.
However, the problem is that Tsubasa Naito is a diplomat of the empire, and he is also a close subordinate of Hyōtaro Imamura at the Consulate General.
Yu Gong, Naito is his subordinate and an imperial diplomat, and he does not allow harm to happen.
Personally, from an emotional point of view, Kentaro is closer to him, but Naito's behavior of "refractory" offended Imamura Hyoutaro.
Kentaro expressed his murderous intention towards Naito Kotsubo so directly, which really made it a little difficult for Imamura Hyoutarou.
That’s why Imamura Kogoro said this.
What Imamura Kogoro means is: With Miyazaki Kentaro’s intelligence and astuteness, the best way to deal with it at this time is that even if he has decided to take revenge against Naito Kogoro, it is best not to say anything at this time. In this way, Imamura Hyoutaro can also pretend to know nothing and don't need to be embarrassed.
Now, Hyōtaro Imamura severely criticized Kentaro Miyazaki and scolded him not to be impulsive. He will definitely give Kentaro Miyazaki an explanation for this matter.
As the counselor of the Imperial Consulate General in Shanghai, Hyotarō Imamura could only deal with it this way.
However, Hyōtaro Imamura’s treatment obviously did not satisfy Kentaro Miyazaki. Kentaro Miyazaki, who had been forcibly suppressed by his teacher in retaliating against Naito, believed that the teacher’s treatment was to protect Kotsubo Naito.
In the end, Kentaro Miyazaki remained silent, expressing his dissatisfaction and protest in this silent way.
Hyoutaro Imamura could only pat Miyazaki Kentaro on the shoulder and scold him for not being young and energetic.
Miyazaki Kentaro used the excuse that it was getting late to say goodbye to his teacher.
Hyoutaro Imamura took a deep look at his student. He asked Ryano Sakamoto to send Kentaro away and advised him as a friend.
Imamura Kogoro shook his head. Miyazaki Kentaro was so angry that he chose to directly 'force' the counselor to express his position. This made the counselor only express his position. In this way, there was a gap between Kentaro and the counselor for the first time.
"Kentaro is young and energetic, and he can't figure it out for the moment." Imamura Hyōtaro shook his head slowly, as if he wasn't too worried about anything, "He is a smart young man and will understand my painstaking efforts."
…
"Miyazaki-kun, I understand your mood very well." Sakamoto Yoshino said to Kentaro Miyazaki, "Naito Tsubasa really went too far."
Sakamoto Yoshino, who has no habit of smoking, handed a cigarette to Miyazaki Kentaro, "I'm on your side."
“Sakamoto-kun, thank you very much.” Cheng Qianfan thanked him gratefully.
“Uncle Imamura is in a difficult position. First of all, he is the counselor of the Imperial Consulate in Shanghai. He cannot tolerate the imperial diplomats being harmed..."
"I don't blame the teacher." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "I know the teacher's difficulties."
He lit the cigarette and took a puff, "I'm just depressed."
Cheng Qianfan chewed on the cigarette. The cigarette was about to break. He rolled down the window, took the cigarette out of his mouth and threw it out. He took a puff and said, "Until Naito is removed, my heart will not be clear."
"Miyazaki-kun?" Sakamoto Yoshino looked at his friend in surprise. He didn't expect that Miyazaki Kentaro would actually disobey Imamura Hyoutarou's order.
"Naito Tsubasa is a lunatic now." Cheng Qianfan said with cold eyes, his voice was very low, as if he was speaking to Sakamoto Yoshino, but also seemed to be mumbling to himself.
Sakamoto Yoshino glanced at his friend, swallowed the words he wanted to persuade again, and finally fell silent.
…
After sending Kentaro Miyazaki back to the "Mr. Xiao Cheng" residence on Lafayette Road in the French Concession, Sakamoto Yoshino did not go directly to his home, but drove back to the Imamura residence.
“Did you send Kentaro home safely?”
“I made a phone call in the living room before departure, and Miyazaki-kun’s bodyguard came to pick him up. I personally drove Miyazaki-kun to Cheng’s residence before returning.”
“Kentaro is still blaming me?” Imamura Hyoutarou asked.
"No." Sakamoto Yoshino shook his head, "Uncle Imamura, Miyazaki-kun is a sensible person. He knows that you are in trouble, and he also knows that uncle Qi treats him well. He is just very dissatisfied with Naito-kun."
“Naito is really wrong.” Imamura Hyōtaro shook his head. He sighed and looked at Sakamoto Yoshino, “I’m worried that Kentaro will be impulsive.”
"No." Sakamoto Yoshino was startled, thinking that Uncle Imamura was really good at judging people and actually understood Miyazaki-kun so well. He quickly spoke to his friend, "Miyazaki-kun has always respected Uncle Imamura very much. I won’t disobey your orders.”
“That’s the best.” Hyoutaro Imamura nodded.
…
Cheng Mansion.
Cheng Qianfan was playing with Xiao Zhizhi in the living room.
Xiao Zhizhi has just woken up and is full of energy.
He held Xiaozhizhi in his arms and pointed at the old cat lying on the carpet in the living room, "Cat, roll around."
The cat glanced at its male owner and yawned.
Cheng Qianfan looked furious, went up and gently 'kicked' the cat with the toe of his shoe, and the cat glared at him.
It’s a real stare.
You can even see a hint of helplessness in the old cat's eyes. Then, the cat turned over on the carpet, even though it was just perfunctory.
"Mr. Xiao Cheng" showed a triumphant expression, pointed at the cat and said to his son, "Xiao Zhizhi, do you see that in this family, including you, everyone must obey me, even the cat is no exception."
Xiao Zhizhi stared at her father, as if thinking, and then suddenly stretched out her little hand and slapped Mr. Xiao Cheng on the face.
"Hahaha." Xiaobao, who was going downstairs, stood on the wooden stairs and bent over with a smile.
“Sir, do you want to rebel?” Mr. Xiao Cheng screamed angrily.
Xiao Zhizhi was frightened and cried loudly.
Xiaobao was anxious, glared at his brother, came over and carried his little nephew upstairs.
Cheng Qianfan laughed loudly, sitting on the sofa and slowly sipping tea.
About three or four minutes later, he raised his wrist to check the time on his watch, walked to the phone and picked up the receiver, "I'm Cheng Qianfan, I want the Imamura Mansion on Huangpu Road."
Two minutes later, Cheng Qianfan hung up the phone.
The corner of his mouth raised into a smile.
This phone number:
Hyoutaro Imamura accepted his student's apology with a smile, and comforted him by saying that it is normal for young people to be impulsive and there is no need to feel too guilty.
Looking like an ordinary conversation, Kentaro Miyazaki and Hyōtaro Imamura, students and teachers, have reaffirmed the tacit understanding that has been formed before.
Previously at Imamura's mansion, Imamura Houtaro scolded him not to be young and energetic, nor to be impulsive.
Cheng Qianfan was silent and then said goodbye.
Hyoutaro Imamura seemed to be a little disappointed and shook his head. He said nothing more and just ordered Sakamoto Yoshino to send him away.
Cheng Qianfan understood the words "young and energetic" and "impulsive".
In other words, he knows Hyotaro Imamura very well.
In a popular saying, Hyotaro Imamura is both a fat boy and a memorial arch.
For the public, Hyotarō Imamura must stop his revenge against Naito.
However, privately, if I had to choose between Naito and him, Imamura Hyoutarou would choose him, the student with whom he has a closer relationship.
Severe criticism is a performance.
Hinting to acquiesce to Kentaro Miyazaki's youthful impulsiveness is true.
This is what Cheng Qianfan figured out himself.
This is a judgment based on his understanding of Hyoutarou Imamura.
This understanding is heavy, just like his heavy heart for Akagi for Imamura Hyoutarou.
Perhaps, this understanding at this moment can also be understood as the tacit understanding between Kentaro Miyazaki and Mr. Imamura.
On the phone call just now, Miyazaki Kentaro apologized to the teacher for his rude attitude just now and for his youthful arrogance.
Hyoutaro Imamura accepted the student’s apology.
Hyoutaro Imamura knew that his students understood the tacit understanding, and Kentaro Miyazaki once again confirmed this tacit understanding that only two people could understand.
This is a tacit agreement with no binding force or guarantee.
Hyoutaro Imamura will not admit the existence of this tacit understanding.
If Hyōtaro Imamura turns against him one day, the so-called tacit understanding will not bring any protective effect to Cheng Qianfan.
However, this tacit understanding is very important.
Hyoutaro Imamura has both face and dignity, and is impeccable both in public and private matters.
The benefits lie with Imamura, and the dangers are borne by Miyazaki Kentaro himself.
In the eyes of Imamura Hyoutaro, Kentaro like this is a good student.
In addition, Cheng Qianfan also deliberately revealed his determination to kill Naito to Sakamoto Yoshino on the way back.
He intentionally conveyed this murderous intention to Imamura Hyoutarou through Sakamoto Yoshino.
In the phone call just now, Hyōtaro Imamura didn't mention this matter at all, let alone any reprimand. This was Hyōtaro Imamura's feedback.
Of course, Cheng Qianfan was not sure whether Sakamoto Yoshino would confess his murderous intentions towards Naito Tsubasa to Imamura Hyoutarou, because there was another possibility, that is, Sakamoto was indeed a very good friend, and Sakamoto Yoshino would help He covers.
So, sending the message through Sakamoto Yoshino was just a side plan.
What really matters is the phone call he made, the verbal hints themselves.
…
The next day.
Haozi specially went to the old house in Yandeli and bought Xiaobao’s favorite wontons from Liu A’s Family and brought them to Xiaobao to eat.
“Just spoil her.” Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
Li Hao chuckled and scratched his head.
He is an orphan, and he is content with his elder brother and sister-in-law, Brother Fan and Sister Ruolan, and his younger sister, Xiaobao.
Brother Fan and his sister-in-law took good care of him, but he couldn't help him with anything else, so he put his love for his sister Xiaobao and his nephew Xiaozhizhi.
“Brother Fan, it’s confirmed.” Li Hao took a sip of preserved egg and lean meat porridge and said, “Naito Tsubasa went to TEDA Apartment yesterday.”
“How long have you been staying?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
He did not tell Haozi that he had confirmed from Imamura Hyoutarou that Naito Tsubasa was the mastermind behind the scenes. It was not that he did not trust Haozi, but it was unnecessary. It was also for Haozi's own good. People who work in this industry can know or not, and the more you know, the better. Less is better.
“About ten minutes.” Li Hao said.
“Find out the movement pattern of Naito Tsubasa.” Cheng Qianfan gently stirred the spoon, blew on it, and said calmly.
"Naito's activities are very regular. Apart from his residence and the Consulate General, he usually has no other hobbies." Li Hao said. He paused as he spoke, "Also, sometimes he likes to go to Chunhe Izakaya to drink a few glasses of wine. .”
Cheng Qianfan pays special attention to ‘preparing for a rainy day’!
He will try to avoid fighting an unprepared battle.
After learning from Sakamoto Yoshino and Kawada Atsuhito that he was suspected and tested by the Military Police Headquarters, it turned out that Naito Tsubasa was behind the scenes, so Cheng Qianfan put Naito Tsubasa on the elimination list.
But later Imamura Hyoutarou strictly ordered him not to retaliate against Naito Tsubasa. Cheng Qianfan knew the temperament of Imamura Hyoutarou. This person seemed to be elegant and enthusiastic, but in fact he was quite self-centered. He especially hated the people around him who were unfaithful to him. Cheng Qianfan wanted to avoid " Because a small loss would destroy his relationship with Imamura Hyotarō, he chose to endure it temporarily.
However, he had already made up his mind that Naito must be eliminated. All he had to do was wait for the opportunity.
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan had already ordered Li Hao to arrange for someone to investigate Tsubasa Naito's whereabouts. Although he did not dare to follow Tsubasa Naito too closely to avoid being noticed by the enemy, he still had knowledge of Tsubasa Naito's daily whereabouts. mastered.
Now, this previous work of ‘preparing for a rainy day’ has been put to use this time.
“Chunhe Izakaya.” Cheng Qianfan muttered to himself.
He knows this izakaya. The owner of the izakaya is a wealthy Osaka businessman who has quite a business mind. The izakaya has high-end furnishings and specializes in serving high-level Japanese talents in Shanghai.
Sakamoto Yoshino mentioned this izakaya to him, and many diplomats from the Consulate General liked to visit this place.
“Brother Fan, do you want to take action on Naito’s way to the izakaya?” Li Hao thought for a while and asked, “The back alley of the izakaya is relatively remote, and guests of the izakaya often urinate there.”
As he spoke, he used chopsticks and the peanuts on the plate to play with on the dining table, "Here, we have arranged an ambush in advance. When Naito comes, just..."
Li Hao made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Cheng Qianfan looked serious as he was thinking about the feasibility of the action plan proposed by Li Hao.
"No." After thinking for a moment, Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "It's too dangerous to do it in Hongkou District."
As he spoke, he nodded at the dining table, "It's in the French Concession, in Xuhui District. It's safe to do it on our own territory."
Looking at Li Hao thinking, Cheng Qianfan smiled lightly and said, "Let's do it in TEDA Apartment!"
A cold look flashed in his eyes.
He wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
