Chapter 566 Testing (Happy Lantern Festival everyone)
Wang Kangnian's men left in the torture room have been transferred in advance.
This is to protect the hidden identity of Miyazaki Kentaro. Sanbonjiro is thoughtful and will naturally consider these details in advance.
Araki Harima is already waiting in the torture chamber.
“Miyazaki-kun.”
“Araki-kun.”
The two looked at each other, smiled, and shook hands.
“Araki-kun, where is the person?” Cheng Qianfan asked Araki Harima.
He glanced around and saw no one being tortured.
“Miyazaki-kun, please come this way.” Araki Harima said.
On the left side of the torture room, there is a small door. When you open the small door, you will see two "private rooms" with a good environment.
Compared with the electric chair, wooden stakes, tiger bench, etc. in the torture room, these two cells with straw mats, mattresses, tattered quilts, small stools, and even a slightly lame desk can be called luxurious elegant rooms.
These two "private rooms" are temporary and preferential treatment cells prepared for "prisoners" who have confessed but have not yet had time to undergo further resettlement.
Of course, this place also has another function, which is to detain a captured criminal here before torturing him, so that he can listen to and observe the tragic scenes of the torture of others.
This kind of environment, where heaven and **** are separated by a single door, can have the most direct visual, auditory and psychological impact on those who are not determined.
Some people will have a psychological breakdown and confess without even being tortured.
…
The two cells are next to each other.
In a cell, a five or six-year-old girl fell asleep at this time.
The little girl was curled up on the straw mat and mattress next to the cell next door, with a small quilt wrapped tightly around her body, and there were still tears on her face.
In the cell next door, a man wearing glasses sat on the ground quietly, looking at his daughter.
The moment he opened the door, light and shadow fell on him. Cheng Qianfan had the illusion that this man was stooped. When he looked over, there was no light in his eyes. This made Cheng Qianfan think of a word: walking dead.
…
“Tong Xueyong, you are a traffic officer at the Nanshi Traffic Station of the Red Party. Why do you know the nursery lurking in the French Concession?” Cheng Qianfan walked to the cell, looked at Tong Xueyong condescendingly, and asked straight to the point.
“Who are you?” Tong Xueyong first glanced at Araki Harima, then stared at Cheng Qianfan and asked.
These few people who came in, the rest were all wearing Japanese military uniforms.
The short, fat man among them was obviously a Japanese army officer, and his rank was not low.
Logically speaking, among these people, the Japanese officer had the highest rank. However, it was this man without a military uniform who came forward to ask him questions.
This man was wearing a suit and a windbreaker, with sinister eyes.
“Answer my question.” Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly, as if he was dissatisfied with Tong Xueyong’s refusal to answer the question.
His heart was filled with fear. Just now, Tong Xueyong looked at Araki Harima, not at Sanbonjiro, who was obviously the leader.
This is Tong Xueyong's subconscious reaction.
Why this knee-jerk reaction?
…
Tong Xueyong’s eyes flickered and he said nothing.
Cheng Qianfan sneered and stretched out his right hand.
Araki Harima understood and handed over his Southern Type 14 gun.
Cheng Qianfan turned off the safety and pointed the gun directly at the sleeping little girl.
“Say.” He said coldly.
“Besides threatening me with my children, what else can you do?” Tong Xueyong asked angrily.
"Three!" Cheng Qianfan said coldly with a sinister expression, "Two..."
"Miaopu was seconded to work in Nanshi a few years ago." Tong Xueyong stared at Cheng Qianfan angrily, seeming to be caught in some kind of memory, "She didn't work in Nanshi for a long time, so most of the comrades in Nanshi Don’t know her.”
“Why do you know Miaopu?” Cheng Qianfan asked coldly.
“The national military police carried out a large-scale raid, and Miaopu withdrew from Nanshi to the French Concession overnight. The traffic route was arranged through the transportation station. To be precise, it was me who sent Miaopu back to the French Concession,” Tong Xueyong said.
“Some time ago, I came to the French Concession for business. I passed by the telegraph hall and recognized the nursery.”
Cheng Qianfan nodded, which could explain why Tong Xueyong, a traffic officer at the Nanshi Traffic Station, confessed to a nursery lurking in the French Concession.
…
Cheng Qianfan frowned and stared at Tong Xueyong, lost in thought.
He is now eager to know how Tong Xueyong was arrested.
Is it betrayed by other traitors?
Or is it because of some kind of accident?
In fact, being arrested due to unexpected circumstances accounts for a certain proportion of the arrests of comrades.
Some of these cases are even so ridiculous that they cannot be described in words.
In the 24th year of the Republic of China, Huo Xiaoqi, an underground member of our Party in Beitang District, was arrested because the female neighbor next door reported that she was a member of the Red Party.
The Political Department sent people to search and arrest Huo Xiaoqi. They found several leaflets of our party and two confidential documents on the spot, which confirmed Huo Xiaoqi's identity as a Red Party member.
The subsequent investigation revealed that Huo Xiaoqi's female neighbor reported Huo Xiaoqi as a red party member, which was purely an act of revenge. This person had no idea that Huo Xiaoqi was a red party member before. In the words of the patrol room file, this was purely a "blind cat encountering death" Mouse':
The female neighbor is addicted to cigarettes.
I knocked on the door in the middle of the night and asked Huo Xiaoqi to borrow cigarettes. Huo Xiaoqi didn’t smoke, so of course I didn’t.
The female neighbor didn’t believe it and thought Huo Xiaoqi was stingy.
It seems that because of his addiction to cigarettes, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He even went to the patrol room before dawn to report that Huo Xiaoqi was a red party member.
After Huo Xiaoqi was arrested, she endured severe torture for half a month and remained unyielding.
Later he was extradited to the national government by the police station, and finally died a heroic death in Longhua.
Cheng Qianfan was eager to find out why Tong Xueyong was arrested, but he couldn't ask openly.
In addition, there was always a doubt in his mind and some uneasiness.
He looked into the cell, his eyes narrowed, and then returned to normal.
…
“Chief, something is wrong.” Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly and looked at Sanbonjiro, who spoke in Japanese.
“Say.” Sanbonjiro said.
“Tong Xueyong is the traffic officer at Nanshi Traffic Station of the Red Party. The information this person knows best must be about the Red Party in Nanshi, especially the Red Party Traffic Station in Nanshi.”
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Tong Xueyong and continued to speak in Japanese, "However, the file shows that this person only confessed to the female Red Party nursery in the French Concession, and there is no record of confession about information related to the Red Party in Nanshi."
Mihonjiro walked up, patted Kentaro Miyazaki on the shoulder, laughed and said, "Miyazaki-kun, that's good. I'm very pleased that you can see the problem."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand, and Araki Harima immediately handed a thicker file to Sanbonjiro.
Jiro Sanbon handed the dossier to Kentaro Miyazaki and said with a smile, "Miyazaki-kun, take a look. The answers to your questions and doubts just now are all in it."
Cheng Qianfan took the file and did not read it immediately. Instead, he glanced at Sanbonjiro.
“Let’s see.” Sanbonjiro said with a smile.
At this time, Sanbonjiro was very satisfied with Kentaro Miyazaki.
The reason why he took the initiative to arrange for Kentaro Miyazaki to interrogate Tong Xueyong.
On the one hand, we need to examine Kentaro Miyazaki’s ability.
The other thing is, eliminate doubts.
Although Sanbonjiro also agreed with what Araki Harima said, Miyazaki Kentaro's arrest of Wang Kangnian directly caused the female Red Party Nursery to take the opportunity to escape, which was a misunderstanding and accident.
Miyazaki Kentaro is an imperial agent, and the possibility of sympathizing with or even secretly having anything to do with the Red Party is extremely low.
To be precise, Sanbonjiro does not think there is any connection between the greedy, lustful and evil-doing Kentaro Miyazaki and the Red Party.
However, the lessons learned from Seto Uchigawa's betrayal of the Japanese Empire made Sanbonjiro very vigilant.
Seto Uchigawa is older than Kentaro Miyazaki in the Special High School, and he is a professional agent that the empire has carefully trained for a long time.
Therefore, Seto Uchigawa's treasonous behavior had a very bad impact within the Shanghai Special High School, and even within the entire secret service agency in China.
So, Sanbonjiro, who was cautious by nature, decided to test Kentaro Miyazaki secretly.
The result did not disappoint Sanbonjiro.
Miyazaki Kentaro got straight to the point and pointed his gun at the little Chinese girl without hesitation.
Mihonjiro saw clearly, Miyazaki Kentaro's eyes were cruel, and he didn't care. The lives of Chinese people were like ants in the eyes of Miyazaki.
Mimotojiro had no doubt that if Tong Xueyong did not speak, Miyazaki Kentaro would directly shoot and kill Tong Xueyong's daughter.
In addition, Kentaro Miyazaki keenly discovered the problems in Tong Xueyong's confession and believed that Tong Xueyong had concealed something and did not confess information about the Nanshi Red Party.
This not only illustrates the improvement of Miyazaki Kentaro's professional ability, but also illustrates Miyazaki's attitude towards eradicating the Red Party, which further rules out the possibility that Miyazaki Kentaro is related to the Red Party.
Sanbonjiro was extremely satisfied in his heart.
As expected of a young man he has always valued and admired, he did not disappoint.
My own judgment of people is quite accurate.
…
Cheng Qianfan opened the file and looked at it carefully.
The file details the entire process of Tong Xueyong from his arrest to his interrogation.
This is the most detailed and authentic dossier about the Red Party children’s xueyong.
Among them, the reason for Tong Xueyong’s arrest shocked Cheng Qianfan.
Tong Xueyong was arrested because he was recognized by Wang Kangnian’s subordinate Xiaosi.
Xiao Si is a person who is proficient in photography, and has strong analytical and observation skills and a strong memory.
Previously when Wang Kangnian led the Party Affairs Investigation Division to hunt down red party members, he would arrange for his mistress to secretly take photos, taking a large number of photos.
Some of these photos are evidence that directly identifies the Red Party at the scene. This is irrefutable evidence and can be used as an aid in interrogation and conviction.
Some are able to locate some fleeing Red Party members. These Red Party members who were secretly photographed and whose faces were exposed are easier to arrest even if they are hiding in Tibet. Many of them were subsequently arrested and brought to justice.
The rest are a large number of seemingly useless photos that did not capture the front, or because the subjects decisively evacuated Shanghai and could not be caught, etc.
However, even these seemingly useless photos can still contain clues.
Tong Xueyong was exposed because of similar photos and was eventually arrested.
…
Xiao Si likes to take casual photos of street scenes and people.
Sometimes, a photo taken at random is very beautiful and has a lot of charm.
On this day, his camera focused on a man holding his daughter’s little hand while stopping at a candy noodle stall.
The little girl's beautiful big eyes stared directly at the candy man, as if a father looked at his daughter with loving eyes.
At the beginning, Xiaosi was intoxicated by the moment of a father's love for his daughter. This was the moment that touched him.
However, the silhouette of the man under the camera lens gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Xiaosi secretly took several profile photos of the man, and at the same time ordered his men to follow the man secretly.
Subsequently, after Xiaosi went back, he quickly developed the photos.
He dug out another photo from his vast collection of old photos:
This is a side view of a red party member who escaped during an arrest operation by the Party Affairs Investigation Division.
After careful comparison, Xiao Si concluded that these two people are the same person.
Then Tong Xueyong was suddenly arrested on the street.
They even secretly arrested Tong Xueyong’s daughter to coerce Tong Xueyong into confessing. This was also based on Xiaosi’s suggestion:
That moment of father-daughter love that made him intoxicated made Xiao Si feel that there was a lot to do.
For a man who loves his daughter so much, this girl is the biggest weakness of the Red Party!
Cheng Qianfan felt secretly in his heart. After Wang Kangnian followed Lu Dazhang and Cheng Qianfan shot and killed Ding Naifei, he suddenly regretted it. He felt that he should have shot the thin young man next to Wang Kangnian.
Judging from Wang Kangnian's attitude towards this person, this person's weight in Wang Kangnian's heart is different from others.
At that time, he guessed that this person might be a relative or friend of Wang Kangnian, but he did not expect that this young man named Xiao Si could make Wang Kangnian look at him differently. I am afraid the reason is because he has such ability!
This mistress is too dangerous!
Cheng Qianfan secretly remembered this person in his heart.
…
He continued to read the file.
In fact, after Wang Kangnian led the team to arrest Miao Pu, he did not interrupt the cross-examination of Tong Xueyong.
This man was quite obedient. Before leaving, he specially sent someone to notify and invite Araki Harima, and asked Araki Harima to interrogate Tong Xueyong about the information about the Red Party in Nanshi.
“Flattery.” Cheng Qianfan snorted and said softly.
Wang Kangnian is showing his favor to Araki Harima.
Tong Xueyong, who has already spoken, can hardly resist the interrogation. It is not difficult to obtain information about the Nanshi Red Party. This is the credit of Araki Harima.
Cheng Qianfan once heard Koike talk about the scene when Araki Harima and Wang Kangnian rebelled.
At that time, Wang Kangnian was still a little reluctant to let go, and he was far worse than his immediate boss Wu Shanyue.
Unexpectedly, Wang Kangnian is now very familiar with how to be an excellent traitor.
Only the approval of the Japanese is the most important, and only the credit recognized by the Japanese is credit.
He himself went to catch the nursery of "possibly small shrimps".
Choose to leave the big fish to Araki Harima.
It may seem like he has done little merit, but in fact it is more practical to win Araki Harima's recognition and favor than to do a lot of merit.
Suddenly, Cheng Qianfan's eyes narrowed and his heart trembled:
He saw Tong Xueyong’s subsequent confession about the Nanshi Red Party!

I am still wearing cotton-padded clothes. I heard that the medical staff have to wear sweaters underneath in order to prevent the protective clothing from becoming too bulky. It is really hard, and I salute you.
