Lost and Spy

Chapter 530 My Teacher
In 1938, the first day of the new year.

Meng Shaoyuan wanted to kill someone!
The news quickly spread throughout the Japanese special agencies in the Shanghai International Settlement, and within two hours, all the principals in charge of the Japanese special agencies knew about it.

The shock this brought to them was enormous.

Meng Shaoyuan wanted to kill someone!
This man has gradually become a legend in Shanghai, especially in the International Settlement, although the Japanese are obviously reluctant to admit this.

However, as long as it is what Meng Shaoyuan wants to do, it seems that there is nothing impossible.

The feeling of being on the verge of an enemy began to spread among Japanese special agencies.

Although I don't know exactly who Meng Shaoyuan wants to kill, how many people he wants to kill, and when, but the Ministry of the Army, the Ministry of the Navy, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and even the leaders of the Japanese private spy organizations all issued the same order to their subordinates:
Before the matter is fully clarified, everyone should not go out without authorization to ensure the safety of life.

It is rare for one person to have such a great influence in the history of the competition between the Chinese and Japanese secret agencies...

……

"How can one person's influence be so great?" In the Shanghai Secret Service of the Japanese Army Department, Habara Koichi seemed to think that this matter was extremely interesting.

"Hahara-kun, you just came to Shanghai, so you don't know much about some situations." The head of the agency, Yoshio Wantian, said with a gloomy face: "In the previous contests with Meng Shaoyuan, we have all been at a disadvantage. It is shameful to say it, but it is Fact. There is no one he dare not kill. Although there is no evidence to prove that Akagi's death was related to him, he is the biggest suspect.

Remember, he even knew who one of our outside agents, a little guy, was, and declared war, ah, maybe not an open declaration of war, but at least a terrible threat had been made.Whichever point of contact is removed, it will be our loss, and more seriously, it will create a cascade of influence that cannot be contained. "

Habara listened very carefully.

He found that Kojiro Kawamoto didn't speak from the beginning to the end: "Mr. Kawamoto, I heard that you studied psychology in the United States. Why do you think Meng Shaoyuan did this?"

"What do you mean?" Kawamoto Kojiro asked back.

"As far as the Shanghai International Concession is concerned, there are three giants in the unified army." Habara Koichi said slowly: "Zhou Weilong, Cheng Yiming, and Meng Shaoyuan. As a commander, what is his task? To lead the overall situation and coordinate operations. Why did he Will you be interested in our low-level spies? And you chose to run to a small spy’s hideout on the day of Chinese New Year’s Eve?”

Kawamoto Kojiro frowned: "You mean, he actually has other plans?"

Habara Hikaru smiled, but did not answer.

Kawamoto Kojiro seemed to be talking to himself there: "From a psychological point of view, and some criminal psychological data I studied in the United States, if a criminal plans a big event there, he will definitely do all kinds of things. Small tricks to confuse the police's sight, and even make the police exhausted, and finally achieve their own goals."

"That's right." Habara Koichi interjected: "Let's think through the entire timeline from beginning to end. Why did Meng Shaoyuan take the risk to go to Nanjing? What is his cemetery in Nanjing? What information did he bring back in Nanjing? New Year is coming soon. At that time, Nanjing's security will definitely be slightly relaxed. He can definitely come back at that time, but why does he take the risk of returning before the New Year? What is he planning for the New Year?
He came back to Shanghai, suddenly visited one of our little secret agents on New Year's Eve, and then made a threat of intimidation.Kawamoto-kun, you are right, he wants to mobilize us. "

Having said that, he suddenly fell silent.

After a while, he blurted out "New Year's reception!"

"What?" Yoshio Manda and Kojiro Kawamoto asked at the same time.

"New Year's Reception!" Habara Koichi said with certainty: "Today, we will hold New Year's Receptions in Shanghai and Nanjing at the same time. Meng Shaoyuan definitely wants to use this opportunity to make something big happen!"

Yoshio Wantian's expression changed suddenly.

If Habara Koichi's judgment is correct, then once the military command succeeds, things will become very serious.

No one can afford this responsibility.

"I'm going to the consulate now." Yoshio Wantian said in a hurry: "Those patrols are not trustworthy, and the special forces we deploy inside and outside the consulate must be strengthened!"

He dared not delay for a moment.

Seeing Yoshio Wantian go out, Kawamoto Kojiro suddenly said: "It is impossible for Meng Shaoyuan to cause trouble in the consulate. He cannot afford the international influence it will cause."

"That's right, he might make trouble at the Nanjing embassy, ​​such as setting a bomb or something, but Shanghai? Our consulate? If he really makes a big fuss, all countries will think that their consulates have been seriously threatened and will unite to report to the embassy. If the national government puts pressure on him, then even if Dai Li wants to protect him, he will probably be unable to do so.”

Habara Koichi said lightly: "I don't know what he wants to do. I can only guess that he will use the consulate and the New Year's reception to do a good job. If I were him, what would I do? Is he in Nanjing? What did you bring back? This mystery cannot be solved, Kawamoto-kun, we will never guess his true purpose."

Kawamoto Kojiro sighed: "When that time really comes, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"No, it's not too late." Habara Koichi said firmly: "He is a very powerful opponent for us. It is not terrible to lose to him. The terrible thing is that we cannot learn from him. We have to learn from him humbly. In the failure, if we find a little lesson that is beneficial to us, then we will continue to grow and narrow the gap with him.

He is also an individual, an ordinary person, no matter how powerful an ordinary person is, he will definitely have shortcomings.For example, the wife of Akagi Nobuyuki almost killed him, which shows that this person is definitely not invulnerable.Maybe he has many shortcomings, but we haven't discovered it.But before that, he was my teacher! "

He is my teacher!

A Japanese agent actually said such a thing.

"This word, if it spreads to other people's ears, it may cause doubts about your loyalty." Kawamoto Kojiro said with a bit of appreciation: "But I can understand you, he is also my teacher, and he is worth learning from him." There are really too many places. Habara-kun, I am so glad that you can come to Shanghai."

"I hope we can work hard together." Habara Koichi said with a smile: "One day the students will surpass the teacher."

……

At 10 am, Meng Shaoyuan woke up.

Breakfast is ready.

Meng Shaoyuan sent everyone, including Alao, a New Year's red envelope.

The Meng family was beaming with joy.

"Happy New Year."

Yuri Yamashita was already there waiting for him.

"Happy New Year!"

Meng Shaoyuan also gave her a red envelope.

"Ah, thank you so much." Yuri Yamashita looked very happy: "This reflects the cultural differences between China and Japan. In China, this is called a 'red envelope', and in Japan, it is called a 'good luck bag'. China The red envelopes must be wrapped in red paper, but in Japan, our congratulatory bags use white envelopes, if in China, it must be considered very unlucky, right?"

"Yes, in China, the ones wrapped in white paper are for the dead." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile.

"I also have a small New Year's gift for Shaoyuan-kun." Yamashita Yuriai took out a paper bag: "I hope Shaoyuan-kun will not dislike you."

Inside the paper bag was a white scarf.

"Thank you, I like it very much." Meng Shaoyuan really liked this scarf: "I will wear it when I go out later."

"Shao Yuan-jun can like it, that's great."

Meng Shaoyuan finished his breakfast, wiped his mouth, and stood up:

"Arau."

Arau immediately directed the servant to take the clothes.

Suits, woolen coats, and well-polished leather shoes.

Meng Shaoyuan deliberately put this white scarf around his neck.

Yamashita Yuri Ai smiled happily: "Shaoyuan-kun, you are so proud."

air?

Isn't it because you say I'm handsome and handsome?
"Master, your weapon."

Alao gave Meng Shaoyuan Browning, which was also wiped so that the body of the gun could almost reflect the shadow of a person.

No one was surprised.

Here, Aarau prepared a large number of weapons.

He knew what his master did, and he was ready for Japanese spies to come to his door at any time.

Whoever dares to break in without authorization, Alao will greet them with bullets without hesitation.

Meng Shaoyuan checked the weapon and put it away: "Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year in China, and everyone is on holiday."

Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers.

Meng Shaoyuan left his residence with a smile.

……

Xu Zhu was already waiting for him outside.

As soon as he saw Meng Shaoyuan coming, he immediately opened the car door.

As soon as Meng Shaoyuan got into the car, he was taken aback.

Dude, in the back seat is a light machine gun, loads of bullets.

In the co-pilot's position, there were two submachine guns plus a shell gun.

"What's that down there?"

"Grenade."

Xu Zhu sat in the cab and replied blankly.

"What are you doing?" Meng Shaoyuan couldn't laugh or cry: "War?"

"Assistant Wu called me early in the morning to order." Xu Zhu started the car and stepped on the accelerator: "She asked me to personally protect your safety, and said that if you lose a hair, she will whip me muscle!"

Meng Shaoyuan was stunned for a while, and then suddenly pulled out one of his hairs: "I lost a hair."

Xu Zhu was dumbfounded, is there such a thing for fun?

"It's not that dangerous." Meng Shaoyuan stopped joking: "If an agent's career is full of blood and blood, then this person is definitely not a qualified agent. Weapons are used for self-defense. If I want to assassinate a person , even if he brought a trainload of weapons, he would still be unable to survive, weapons are not all."

"I know." Xu Zhu only concentrated on driving: "But ensuring your safety is everything to me."
