Chapter 546 The Wisdom of Three Books
Cheng Qianfan held the telegram in his hand and fell into deep thought.
Dai Chunfeng used the word "camera" in the message, which gave the Shanghai Special Situation Group great autonomy and meant that it could act according to the situation and be flexible.
At the same time, there was an order to "get rid of Ruan Zhiyuan at all costs."
‘Camera’ and ‘at all costs’ are not contradictory. The former is delegation of authority, while the latter is a command.
Cheng Qianfan could feel Dai Virgo's anger.
Obviously, Ruan Zhiyuan, who had just "made a great contribution", betrayed the country and surrendered to the enemy, and sold the Shanghai Station completely, which directly led to the arrest of Shanghai Station Director Zheng Weilong and others. This incident greatly angered Dai Chunfeng.
Cheng Qianfan could roughly guess the clues: Shanghai Station successfully sanctioned Yang Fuyuan, everyone was overjoyed, and he might even personally ask for credit for Ruan Zhiyuan and Shanghai Station in front of the committee.
After the great joy, everything turned upside down in the blink of an eye.
Dai Chunfeng might lose points in front of the 'principal' and be reprimanded for this. Under such circumstances, it is not surprising to say that Dai Chunfeng hates Ruan Zhiyuan deeply.
…
Ruan Zhiyuan is a poisonous snake.
In both public and private matters, Cheng Qianfan would not let go of this scoundrel who betrayed his country and sought glory.
To get rid of Ruan Zhiyuan, we must first inquire about this person's whereabouts and confirm where he is now.
This is not easy.
Ruan Zhiyuan is well aware of the harsh punishment and discipline of the Secret Service for traitors. This person is greedy for life and afraid of death, so he will definitely not dare to show his face easily.
Cheng Qianfan tapped the table with his left index finger. To locate Ruan Zhiyuan's whereabouts, he had to focus on the inside of the Special Higher Education Course.
Or, to be more precise, we need to find a solution from Araki Harima.
…
With this word in his mind, Cheng Qianfan thought to himself, ‘I hope Mr. Araki can be smarter and take the initiative’.
He informed Araki Harima about Lu Xingo. In addition to taking precautions and protecting himself, he also had another consideration, which was to use this incident to make a fuss.
Araki Harima may seem reckless, but he is actually shrewd.
Maybe he didn’t think about it that deeply at the first time, but after Araki Harima inquired and confirmed Lu Xingo’s identity from Ruan Zhiyuan, he calmed down and probably thought about it:
Why did Lu Xingge come to find Cheng Qianfan?
The answer is not difficult to guess - Lu Xingge took a fancy to Cheng Qianfan's identity and wanted to find out information about Zheng Weilong from him.
In this way, with Araki Harima's ability, it is possible to arrange for him to meet Zheng Weilong, win Zheng Weilong's trust, obtain information, and even take the opportunity to lure other senior officials of Shanghai Station to successfully fish.
…
When meeting Araki Harima, Cheng Qianfan did not mention this idea or suggestion at all.
reason?
Safety first!
Given Kentaro Miyazaki’s character, his greatest interest is making money. He will not take the initiative to do anything, let alone such risky plans and actions.
Miyazaki has a very clear code of conduct. In short, he doesn’t do anything early without benefit.
He is willing to help Araki Harima to find out information about Shanghai Station personnel. On the one hand, it is less dangerous to inquire about information secretly. In addition, his purpose is to help Araki Harima, a friend, and win Araki's friendship, rather than to make meritorious deeds.
As for contacting Zheng Weilong, or even the fishing station in Shanghai, Kentaro Miyazaki would avoid such dangerous professional agent behavior.
However, now that Dai Chunfeng has ordered Ruan Zhiyuan to be eliminated at all costs, Cheng Qianfan has to make new considerations.
If Araki Harima didn't take this into consideration, he would have to find a way to remind Araki Harima without leaving any trace.
As tasks and goals change, the plan needs to be adjusted:
Getting close to Zheng Weilong and deceiving Zheng Weilong's trust is naturally not an easy task. He can logically ask Ruan Zhiyuan to participate and cooperate.
Ruan Zhiyuan is Zheng Weilong's assistant and knows him very well. He proposed that Ruan Zhiyuan's cooperation is very reasonable.
Cheng Qianfan exhaled a puff of smoke. Of course, it would be best if Araki Harima was smart enough to think of a clever trick to 'take advantage of the situation'.
…
“Call back to Wuhan.” Cheng Qianfan put out his cigarette **** and said slowly.
“Wuhan is a great place for everyone.”
“As I am informed of the call, we must root out the treasonous scum and deal with matters within the department. We must overcome all difficulties to eradicate this scum and wash away the shame of our Secret Service!”
“In addition, I learned about the latest situation of Station Commander Zheng and Wei Long. Station Commander Zheng has been tortured, but he is still unyielding and sternly denounced the Japanese invaders. This example of perseverance and perseverance is inspiring to sing and cry, and the staff is filled with deep admiration.”
Zhou Ru put down her pencil and showed the draft of the telegram to Cheng Qianfan.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at it and nodded, "Send the report."
"yes!"
…
"Is that Miyazaki-kun's car?" Sanbonjiro asked as he stood at the window on the second floor, watching a car drive into the large courtyard of the central patrol house.
“Exactly.” Araki Harima nodded and said.
Sanbonjiro watched Cheng Qianfan get out of the car and stretched.
The patrol officers around him saluted and said hello to him.
Inspector Xiao Cheng nodded slightly, responded with a smile, and then strode into the arresting hall through the snow.
“Araki, your suggestion is good and very practical.” Sanbonjiro said in a deep voice, “But it’s still a bit superficial.”
“Please correct me, section chief.” Araki Harima bowed slightly and said.
Mihonjiro looked at the somewhat unconvinced Araki Harima and shook his head slightly.
If this was Miyazaki, he would definitely look ashamed, say some flattering words, such as, "The subordinates are stupid, the section chief is far-sighted, the subordinates are frightened, and the section chief is disappointed," and then look forward to it. Waiting to hear the teachings.
“Zheng Weilong’s will to resist is firm. Although we don’t know why other high-level officials of Shanghai Station have evacuated, this person was arrested in a ridiculous way.” Sanbonjiro looked at Araki Harima and said in a deep voice.
"However, don't forget that this person is the head of the Shanghai Station, and he is by no means an ordinary person." Sanbonjiro continued, "For such a veteran agent, when he is arrested, let him trust a stranger, and It is unlikely that he is a stranger who has always been close to the empire."
…
Hearing this, Araki Harima thought for a moment and admitted that the section chief's words made sense.
However, he still insisted on his idea and defended, "What the section chief said is absolutely true. However, arranging for Mr. Miyazaki to test and contact Zheng Weilong is an attempt. It is best if it succeeds. If he sees through it, it will not hurt. .”
“Stupid!” Sanbonjiro scolded with a sullen face.
“Hai!” Araki Harima put his legs together, bowed, and lowered his head.
"Araki-kun, you are too impatient and your thinking is too superficial." Sanbonjiro said coldly, "Even if you are trying to do something, you must strive to do the best."
“Araki doesn’t understand.”
“It would be best for Mr. Miyazaki to gain Zheng Weilong’s trust. Even if he fails, Zheng Weilong cannot be made to suspect that Miyazaki has other motives. It is best to gain a certain favor from Zheng Weilong.”
Araki Harima lowered his head and pondered what Sanbonjiro said.
Trust and goodwill have two different meanings.
Trust means that Zheng Weilong believes that Cheng Qianfan, whom Miyazaki pretends to be, is indeed entrusted by Lu Xingge to contact him, and Zheng Weilong will naturally cooperate secretly.
…
“What does the section chief mean?” Araki Harima seemed to understand.
“Don’t you think this is a good opportunity for Miyazaki-kun to break into the Lixingshe Secret Service as Cheng Qianfan?” Sanbonjiro said slowly with a proud smile on his lips.
“Sou Ga is dead!” Araki Harima suddenly realized, showing a look of surprise, “I understand what the section chief means.”
"'Cheng Qianfan' secretly contacted Zheng Weilong and showed him goodwill, or could secretly help him with food and living conditions, which made Zheng Weilong very grateful. This was also a sign of goodwill. When the Shanghai Station learned about this, they must have thought that' Cheng Qianfan' can still be fought for."
“Even if we can’t wipe out all the Shanghai Station this time, if we can take the opportunity to arrange for Miyazaki-kun to break into the Shanghai Station and bury this nail, there will still be a chance to launch a thunderous attack on the Shanghai Station in the future.”
Mimotojiro showed a proud smile, obviously quite proud of his idea.
Of course, it would be more comfortable if Araki, an ignorant guy, said something like, "The section chief has great opinions, but the subordinates are ashamed of themselves."
Thinking of this, Sanbonjiro cursed in his heart.
I am not a person who likes to listen to flattery, so why do I have such a "weird" idea now.
It’s all this guy Miyazaki!
“Contact Miyazaki about this matter and let you handle it.” Sanbonjiro said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
"It's best not to reveal from the beginning that the contact was at Lu Xingge's request, and that it was just a simple show of goodwill." Mimotojiro thought thoughtfully, "If the Shanghai Station learns of this situation and thinks that Cheng Qianfan can be fought for, it is best to They can contact Cheng Qianfan again, so it is logical and will not arouse suspicion."
"Understood."
…
Araki Harima excitedly went out to call Cheng Qianfan.
After a while, Araki Harima came back with an angry look on his face.
"What's wrong?"
“Miyazaki-kun is not in the patrol room.”
"Where did he go?"
“The man from the patrol room said that he went to the warehouse with Pete from the investigation team of the Political Division.”
“Bag duck down!” Sanbonjiro cursed, this guy Miyazaki only thinks about his business.
Then he remembered that he had just seen a car driving out of the patrol house yard. It should be Peter's car.
…
“The quantity of sulfa powder is getting less and less.” Cheng Qianfan frowned and looked at the warehouse.
“No way, Europe has also realized the value of this drug, and domestic demand has surged.” Peter shrugged.
"France is at war?" Cheng Qianfan snorted and said, "In my opinion, this is hoarding, deliberately reducing shipments and raising the price of sulfa."
“No, no, no,” Pete explained. “As far as I know, Italy placed a large number of orders with domestic pharmaceutical factories, which caused a sharp reduction in shipments from Asia.”
“Italy?” Cheng Qianfan was slightly surprised.
“Ethiopia,” said Pete.
Cheng Qianfan understood. He shook his head and said sarcastically, "It's really unexpected that Italy, a powerful European country, would be so embarrassed by a group of African natives."
"Europe's powerful country, Italy? Are they worthy?" Pete deliberately showed an exaggerated expression.
“The real number one power in Europe is the powerful French Republic. If it has a strong French army, a division of armed forces can easily quell the Ethiopian guerrilla forces.”
With that said, Pete raised his wrist and looked at the time, "Okay, my friend, I will urge the country to increase the quota of medicines."
He flashed his watch and said, "I still have something to do, so let's go first."
“Be careful I tell Linda that you secretly go on a date with Ruth.” Cheng Qianfan looked at Peter’s back and shouted.
"My friend, you are slandering." Peter waved his hand without turning back, "I have something to discuss at Mr. Esdala's house today."
“Peter, sooner or later you will die on a woman’s belly.” Cheng Qianfan scolded with a smile.
Esdala was a French businessman who died of a serious illness last month, leaving behind a widowed wife.
“There is a saying in China that it is honorable to die as a widow.”
“It’s cool to die under the peony flowers and be a ghost.” Cheng Qianfan corrected him.
“See, you ancient Chinese are also very romantic.” Pete laughed loudly, walked out of the warehouse, started the car, and stepped on the accelerator.
“Asshole, leave me the car.” Cheng Qianfan cursed angrily.
…
After Pete leaves.
Cheng Qianfan pretended to check the warehouse's purchase list and then made another inspection.
He told his men to keep an eye on the warehouse. Remembering that he was left here by Peter, he cursed Peter a few more times, then went out and called a rickshaw to leave.
Cheng Qianfan went on a shopping spree.
Near Mailan Pier.
A relatively secluded small hotel.
Cheng Qianfan put on his sunglasses, put up his windbreaker, lowered his hat, and observed the surroundings vigilantly. He glanced at the dozing store owner, carried a heavy net bag, and went straight to the second floor.
After entering the door.
Cheng Qianfan stood behind the door and listened to the movement in the corridor.
“Professor Peng!” After confirming that nothing was abnormal, he put down his net bag and shook hands with Peng Yuou.
“Inspector Xiao Cheng.”
The two of them held their hands tightly together and smiled at each other.
…
“When will you leave?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
“Flying ticket in two hours.”
Cheng Qianfan's expression was a little sad. Counting the time before Lao Liao's death, he and Peng Yuou had worked together for more than two years.
Peng Yuou is a very capable and charismatic leader.
This parting made him feel reluctant to leave.
Peng Yuou was moved and emotionally excited.
He felt the loss of young comrade Huo Miao, who was about to leave Shanghai, the land where he had fought for many years, and he was reluctant to leave his comrades.
