A Ford car with a Japanese plaster flag parked at the entrance of the Little Red Building of Laohuqiao Prison.
The driver's door opened. A Japanese soldier got out of the car and turned to the right side of the back seat. He respectfully opened the door.
A Japanese officer got out of the car, looked around arrogantly, then turned around and asked a lady out of the car.
"Fancy it?" Liu Xia touched Cheng Qianfan's arm and asked with a smile.
The two were talking in the corridor on the third floor, and they could see the situation at the entrance of the Little Red Building from a distance.
"Ford Model 48 4-door officer sedan." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "This car has no features."
Liu Xia gave Cheng Qianfan a charming look.
“This woman is not easy to mess with.” She warned Cheng Qianfan.
“Sister Xia, do you have any misunderstandings about me?” Cheng Qianfan said dissatisfiedly. He felt that his reputation was being harmed.
Liu Xia clicked her tongue, meaning you are pretending to be pure in front of me.
“A good friend in Dingmu Village.” She said, “Qiu Yuehua.”
“It turns out to be her.” Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly. He had long heard that Dingmutun had an extremely young and beautiful girlfriend, but this was the first time he saw her.
“This woman is not simple.” Liu Xia said.
“I know that Mr. Qiu is an old member of the Tongmenghui, and Mrs. Qiu is Japanese.” Cheng Qianfan said.
"That's not what I'm talking about." Liu Xia shook her head. For them, whoever's family didn't have one or two elders of the Tongmenghui would say Liu Xia. Her aunt was also a Tongmenghui elder. Besides, Cheng Qianfan's grandfather was When Mr. Wang sees him, he will also address him as Mr. Gu.
Cheng Qianfan looked like he was looking for answers.
"This woman relied on her mother's relationship, her good looks, and her good Japanese to travel around ten miles of foreign lands, and got to know many Japanese military officers and assistants," Liu Xia said.
Seeing Cheng Qianfan's narrow expression, Liu Xia cleared her throat, "Of course, Qiu Yuehua herself is indeed capable."
“Qiu Yuehua once worked in the Press Inspection Office of the Japanese Military Guidance Department, and also served as an announcer on the military radio station.” Liu Xia took out a box of Fairy brand cigarettes from her body, took out a thin cigarette and put it in her mouth.
Cheng Qianfan took out the lighter and lit it with a click. Looking at the red sky and the red lips biting the cigarette, he had to admit that Sister Xia did have an exciting charm.
“This woman also served as Colonel Onodera’s secretary.” Liu Xia said.
Cheng Qianfan showed a surprised expression. Onodera Enta was the head of the special agency of the Japanese military headquarters in Shanghai. He was a Japanese aristocrat and held a high position.
Liu Xia made an expression as if she had just arrived, and raised the corner of her mouth with a hint of ridicule, "This woman is always good at dancing. Onodera took her to get to know Tsuneomiya Aishui, and through Tsunemiya Aishui, she met Konoe Futaka. , and met Takeo Imai through Fumitaka Konoe.”
Cheng Qianfan was amazed.
Tsunemiya Oamizu is a close confidant of Japanese Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro. He heard about this person from Hyōtaro Imamura. This person had secretly met with Wang Takumi as Konoe Fumimaro's special envoy to discuss "peace talks".
And Konoe Fumintaka was the son of Konoe Fumimaro.
As for Imai Takeo, this person participated in the planning of the "peace talks" between Japan and Wang. His current identity is the head of the China Section of the General Staff Headquarters. In addition, this person was also one of the planners of the Marco Polo Bridge Incident.
After Liu Xia's introduction, Cheng Qianfan was really amazed. This Qiu Yuehua was really extraordinary. She was treated like a high-ranking official, and she talked and laughed like a "noble".
Watching Qiu Yuehua talking and laughing happily with the Japanese officer from a distance, Cheng Qianfan was thoughtful.
"I've said all this to remind you that roses have thorns..." Liu Xia snorted coldly, "Don't be blinded by your lust."
“Sister Youxia, I don’t even have the guts to provoke a rose with thorns that stands out like you.” Cheng Qianfan said seriously, shaking his head, “Actually, I’m timid.”
"Are you timid? Giggle." Liu Xia laughed so hard that she gave Cheng Qianfan a light slap.
Speaking, he twisted his waist and left.
Suddenly turned back midway and saw Cheng Qianfan staring at her waist.
Cheng Qianfan’s face turned red after he was caught, feeling a little embarrassed.
Liu Xia then left with an even happier smile. She didn’t twist her waist this time and was very serious.
…
Qiu Yuehua was greeted respectfully by Agent No. 76 and entered the Little Red Building.
Cheng Qianfan retracted his gaze.
He knew that Liu Xia would turn around and catch him peeking.
He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and frowned slightly.
Liu Xia said so much and pointed out Qiu Yuehua's background, intending to warn him not to touch this owned rose.
She didn't know that Qiu Yuehua, a woman who walked around the side of a senior Japanese military officer and the son of the Prime Minister, to an agent like him, was like a pastry covered in honey to an ant, which he could not refuse at all.
only-
Cheng Qianfan held a cigarette in his mouth and pressed his temples with his thumb.
He had an inexplicable feeling that this Qiu Yuehua was very familiar, much like a person he was familiar with, but he couldn't remember it all at once.
Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the car driving away.
The Japanese officer just now had his back turned to him, and he could not see his face.
Just now, a car passed by with the rear window open, and a face flashed past.
Because the distance was quite far and the person passed by in a flash, Cheng Qianfan was not sure that he could see clearly. However, it was just an impression at that moment that this person's face looked very much like Eguchi Hideya's.
Eguchi Hide was also transferred to Nanjing?
If this person is really Eguchi Hideya, Cheng Qianfan's admiration for Qiu Yuehua will be even higher. This woman is very decent, and none of her friends are ordinary people.
…
Erchun stared at the bruise on the bridge of his nose and left Dingmutun's office.
Director Ding finally took a large book and threw it at Erchun, hitting him right on the bridge of the nose.
It’s no wonder that Dingmutun lost his composure, Erchun was so mean-mouthed.
When he left, he muttered, "Women also like to be young and beautiful." ’
Then he heard Dingmutun calling him. As soon as he turned around, a book was thrown at him...
"Miss Qiu." Erchun was surprised when he saw Qiu Yuehua being led over by his subordinates. "You have come to Nanjing?"
He diligently took Qiu Yuehua's suitcase from his subordinates, led the way, stepped forward and knocked on the door of Dingmutun's office, "Director."
"Get out!" Ding Mutun cursed in the room. If this Erchun hadn't been a junior member of the township party and was loyal to him, based on what this kid just said, he would have sent Erchun to the Yangtze River.
"The director is looking at me, not you, Miss Qiu." Erchun smiled awkwardly at Qiu Yuehua and explained.
Qiu Yuehua smiled reservedly. She felt that this subordinate in Dingmutun was a little bit stupider than the last time she saw him.
"Director, the director is in a bad mood." Erchun said. As he spoke, he went up and knocked on the door again. "Director, it's Miss Qiu who's here."
Before he finished speaking, the door opened with a creak, revealing the surprised and excited face of Dingmutun, "Yuehua, why are you here?"
"I heard on the radio that the heavy rain in Nanjing has cooled down the temperature." Qiu Yuehua smiled, "I just finished knitting the sweater, so I thought I would come and see you."
"What more can I ask for when I get such a beautiful woman." Ding Mutun said happily and held Qiu Yuehua's little hand.
Qiu Yuehua glanced at Erchun a little shyly, and then looked at Dingmutun, with courage and contented joy in her eyes.
Dingmutun’s eyes were gloomy and he glared at Erchun. Erchun blinked his clear eyes, is this? Want me to leave?
Before Dingmutun’s eyes could kill someone, Erchun put down the suitcase in his hand and left as if running away.
…
“Brother Erchun.” Cheng Qianfan saw Erchun holding two large cakes in his hands and said hello.
"Mr. Cheng, are you feeling better?" Erchun asked with concern and handed over a piece of cake. When he saw Cheng Qianfan waving his hand, he took the cake back faster.
“It’s a flesh wound, just take care of it.” Cheng Qianfan said. He looked at the bruise on the bridge of Erchun’s nose and asked, “What’s wrong?”
"It's not you who caused the trouble." Erchun said. Then seeing Cheng Qianfan's puzzled expression, he quickly said, "I said the wrong thing. The director smashed it with a book."
"Then I want to congratulate Brother Erchun." Cheng Qianfan said seriously. Seeing Erchun frown, he smiled and winked, "Think about it, why doesn't Director Ding hit other people with books? That would be a disservice to you and everyone else." It’s different.”
"That's true." Erchun thought for a while and said, "Others have been shot long ago."
"That's right." Cheng Qianfan laughed loudly, took out half a box of cigarettes from his pocket, put it directly into Er Chun's hands, and then Shi Shiran left.
Haozi, who had been following Cheng Qianfan without saying a word, turned to look and saw Erchun glance at the Marlboro in his hand, grinning at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of joy.
"Why is No. 76 so stupid?" Hao Zai took two quick steps to follow Cheng Qianfan and asked in a low voice.
“Do you think he is stupid?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
Hao Zai nodded blankly.
“The most trusted driver in Dingmutun.” Cheng Qianfan said, “Think about it carefully.”
Hao Zai frowned and thought.
“Remember, smart people don’t live long.” Cheng Qianfan said quietly.
Hao Zai nodded thoughtfully.
…
Erchun bit into the big pancake and rolled the meat, and greeted his colleagues along the way with a smile. Soon, he strolled to the dormitory of Laohuqiao Prison, which was temporarily provided for their accommodation.
Er Chun, as the driver and confidant bodyguard of Dingmutun, is qualified to choose the room first.
He chose a room in the corner. Although it was remote, it was an independent house because of its remoteness. There was a locked utility room next to it.
"Bah, bah, bah." Erchun spat out the cake in his mouth, but his teeth seemed to have been bitten by the stones in the cake, and he cursed in his mouth.
The cursing Erchun didn't give up. He threw the big cake on the ground and stepped on it again. Then he went back to his room cursing, closed the door and went to sleep.
About a quarter of an hour later, the window of the locked utility room opened, and a man deftly dug it out, quickly picked up the dirty big pancake and rolled the meat, stuffed it into his arms, and then took a running start. With the help of a crooked tree by the window of the utility room, I climbed up the window edge and searched in all at once.
There were several meows at the same time.
Then the window closed silently again.
In the room, Erchun, who was lying on the bed, turned over and mumbled, and soon he heard snoring.
When searching Gao Yao before, they found the utility room and took a look at the rusty door lock. Some of his subordinates wanted to break the lock and search, but Er Chun was stunned. He scolded him for being stupid, and all his subordinates naturally followed. He agreed, saying that the lock on the door had not been unlocked for several days, and there would be no one inside. Brother Erchun is really smart.
…
“Eguchi-kun, have you been to Nanjing before?” My grandson Shinta asked, glancing at Eguchi Hideya who was looking thoughtfully at the scenery outside the car window as if he was lost in memories.
"No." Eguchi Hide also shook his head. He took the cigarette from my grandson Shinta, but held it in his hand without lighting it, and said, "Nanjing is the capital of the country, and interrogation is very strict. It has always been our common enemy. Where the fighting was most intense, many colleagues fell into the hands of Dai Chunfeng’s Lixingshe.”
As he said that, he smiled slightly and said, "At that time, I tried to find a way to go to Hangzhou."
My grandson Shinta glanced at Eguchi Hideya in surprise. In an empire where the idea of loyalty to the emperor with bravery is rampant, it is extremely rare for someone like Eguchi Hideya to admit so frankly that he once acted in fear of death, not to mention rare.
"I have also heard about the cruelty of the struggle back then." My grandson Shen Tai nodded and pointed in the direction of Laohuqiao Prison where he just went. "As far as I know, the Lixingshe Secret Service was in Laohuqiao Prison back then. Contained captured Imperial agents."
Eguchi Hideya had a serious expression on his face, "Is this happening?"
As he spoke, he nodded, "It's a pity that I have something to do today, otherwise I would have gone in and visited the place where my seniors fought."
My grandson Shinta laughed loudly. He liked what Eguchi Hideya said about "the place where our predecessors fought."
The vehicle was speeding all the way towards Xiaguan.
…
Shimonoseki Police Station.
It’s so lively with lanterns and colorful decorations.
Police Chief Shen Kun and his subordinates have been waiting for a long time.
Seeing the vehicle stop, Shen Kun diligently stepped forward and opened the door.
My grandson Shinta and Eguchi Hide also got off the bus.
Eguchi Hide also looked at everyone, and finally his eyes rested on the welcoming banner and the beating gongs and drums.
“It’s really lively,” he said.
“Eguchi-kun is here to investigate the case, not to fulfill his duties.” My grandson Shinta also looked gloomy and said, “How unbecoming you are.”
"Yes, yes, yes." Shen Kun wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly dispersed the crowd, "It's gone, it's gone, you guys stay, the others get out."
“The people in the archives stayed, and the others dispersed.” Eguchi Hideya suddenly said.
"Yes, yes." Shen Kun said quickly, "Lao Lei from the archives room stayed, and the others dispersed."
Then he saw Taijun Eguchi looking at him with a half-smile.
Shen Kun said quickly, "Taijun, Shen still has official business to deal with. If you have something to do here, just send someone to call me."
“Director Shen, thank you for your hard work.” Eguchi Hide also nodded slightly.
“It’s not hard work to serve the Japanese Empire.” Shen Kun said quickly.
…
Police Records Office.
Eguchi Hide also took the briefcase from his subordinates and took out a photo. He stared at the photo for a long time.
Then he raised his head and looked at Lao Lei with a smile, "Lao Lei?"
“Yeah, yeah.”
“What’s the thunder?”
“Lei Zhongliang.”
"Lei, Zhongliang, good." Eguchi Hide also nodded with satisfaction, "What a good name."
He handed the photo in his hand to Lei Zhongliang, "Do you have any impression of this photo?"
Lei Zhongliang cautiously took the photo from Eguchi Hideya's hand. When he looked down, he saw a long line of words on the top of the photo:
The infantry science cadets of the Army Military Academy took a group photo at the Xiaguan Police Station's basketball game.
Following this is the date of the photo taken.
