Lost and Spy

Chapter 598 The mastermind behind the scenes
"Three focal points were attacked at the same time and suffered heavy losses."

Kawamoto Kojiro reported: "Yuyuan Road, Nogawa Trading Company, and Yoshisho Trading Company were attacked at the same time, and none of the 16 people survived. And in every place, the same three characters, 'Liao Yuting' appeared!"

"Liao Yuting!" Acting chief of the Japanese Shanghai Secret Service Hitotsu Matsumoto's face was a bit ugly: "This person was a very important person to us before, but now there is something wrong with him."

"The war has begun." Kawamoto Kojiro said quickly: "Liao Yuting assassinated and kidnapped a large number of military command agents. I think it is precisely because of this willingness that the military command was finally completely enraged and launched a full range of revenge actions."

"Major Hahara, what do you think?" Matsumoto Renji's eyes fell on Hahara Koichi: "You proposed the assassination plan against Meng Shaoyuan. The reward of 500 million yen has indeed stimulated many people, but until now So far, Meng Shaoyuan is still alive and well, but we have suffered too many sacrifices."

Hahara Koichi still seemed very calm: "However, this plan did have a very good effect. Meng Shaoyuan was harassed a lot, and he had to allocate a lot of energy to deal with this assassination. Many of his people died , So his current act of revenge proves that he is in a hurry. We have killed many people, and the other party has also died a lot, Your Excellency, what we have to do now is to see who has the more tenacious endurance."

On the side, Miao Chengfang has been listening quietly.

Habara Koichi.

He even admired this person a little bit.

It was he who suggested the establishment of an institution specializing in the study of Meng Shaoyuan.

It was also under his strong suggestion that a reward of 500 million yen was set up.

That's right, Meng Shaoyuan was in trouble.

Especially that Liao Yuting, he was really annoying.

He was like a fly, "buzzing" around Meng Shaoyuan all day long.

Meng Shaoyuan's revenge came very violently and forcefully. It was simply killing people, which is not what a senior intelligence officer should do.

Military control of Shanghai's Big Three:
Zhou Weilong, Cheng Yiming, Meng Shaoyuan.

Japan specifically selected Meng Shaoyuan to attack, and this was a posture of defeating everyone.

"Report." A Japanese agent hurried in: "Zhengjin Bank was robbed."

"what?"

Hitotsu Matsumoto was startled: "Loss?"

"150 million yen, all robbed."

Matsumoto Rentsugu's complexion became extremely ugly.

All he cares about is the money.

Although Shanghai is controlled by Japan, the public concession is still independent.To survive and expand in this place, funding is essential.

The 150 million yen is too important for the Japanese special agency.

The salaries to be paid to those agents and the next period of funds for various departments are all in this 150 million.

It can even be said that no matter how many people die, Hitotsu Matsumoto can bear it, but losing such a large sum of money for the old man may bring the operation of the Japanese special agency to a standstill, which has broken through his bottom line of tolerance .

"There were more than a dozen robbers, all of whom were wearing masks, which were the same as those used in the first Zhengjin Bank robbery. Moreover, according to the bank staff at the scene, all of these robbers were women."

"All women?"

Everyone felt it was incredible.

When did so many female robbers appear on the beach?

"Those robbers also left a sentence at the scene, 'Hand over Liao Yuting, or there will be another time!'"

"Liao Yuting, it's Liao Yuting again!" Matsumoto Rentsui's face twisted: "Ba Ga, not only killing people, but also stealing money, is Meng Shaoyuan crazy?"

Miao Chengfang smiled.

Hitoshi Matsumoto was in a hurry, this time he was really in a hurry.

He was worried that Meng Shaoyuan was too aggressive and desperate, but now it seems that his worries are completely unnecessary. Meng Shaoyuan accurately hit the Japanese seven inches:

money!
In Shanghai Beach, you are nothing without money!
"If Meng Shaoyuan was responsible for the robbery this time, then that means he was also responsible for the robbery of Zhengjin Bank last time?" Kawamoto Kojiro frowned.

"It doesn't look like it." Matsumoto Rentsui frowned: "I have checked the information carefully. The first Zhengjin Bank robbery, Meng Shaoyuan was still in Nanjing, and the forces did not enter Shanghai at all, and the first Zhengjin Bank robbery The case is related to a woman."

"Now it's not about finding out who did the robbery." Yu Yuanguang said, "Even if Meng Shaoyuan was responsible for the two robberies, what can we do? He can deny it completely. The greatness of this robbery The reason is that we clearly know that it has something to do with Meng Shaoyuan, but we don’t have any evidence against him, and the Ministry of Industry will not care. He actually used a group of women to rob? Interesting, really interesting.”

"Major Habara, you actually find it interesting?" Matsumoto Hitosuke became visibly displeased: "The agents of the empire are being slaughtered, and our funds are being robbed. Don't you think these things are all interesting?"

Koichi Habara has no interface.

But he really found it very interesting.

How many resources does Meng Shaoyuan have at his disposal?This is also where the research office needs to focus on research in the next step.He even used women?
Well, this is worth learning by yourself.

Every inch of resources around you is useful.

Meng Shaoyuan taught himself a good lesson.

"Mr. Miao." Matsumoto Rentsui turned to Miao Chengfang: "The situation is very urgent now. What do you think is the most appropriate way for us to deal with it?"

"It's very simple." Miao Chengfang said lightly: "One is to launch the strongest counterattack and never back down, but this will put the two sides into a full-scale exchange of fire. In the end, whoever can't bear the casualties, that is loser."

Hitosuke Matsumoto shook his head slowly.

Although he is known as the "Three Tigers of the Empire" and acts as the head of the Shanghai agency, he is very clear about the meaning of the word "agent".

Soon there will be a powerful person to replace him. As an excessive person, the most important thing is to maintain stability and not make major mistakes during his agency.

You can be reactive, but you can't have past.

This is also where the official tricks lie.

Whether you are a spy or not, you are actually working in the same workplace, and to do well in this workplace is not much different from what you do in a company.

He wants to hand over a complete Shanghai secret service to his successor.

"Then, it's the second way." Miao Chengfang said slowly: "Don't cancel the 500 million reward order, otherwise, it will damage the majesty of the empire. Keep hanging there, when those killers get over the initial passion, If you find that the task is not so easy to complete, your enthusiasm will slowly disappear, and the majesty of the empire will also be preserved.

The biggest trouble now comes from Liao Yuting. We still don’t know why he is so fanatical, and we can’t even control him directly. I would like to ask, how many of you here have seen Liao Yuting?I suggest that if we give up Liao Yuting, we can even secretly inform Meng Shaoyuan of this decision. Meng Shaoyuan is a smart man and he knows what to do. "

"No, absolutely not!" Hahara Koichi objected without hesitation: "Mr. Miao, Your Excellency the Chief of the Agency, so far, Liao Yuting is the most beneficial pawn we use against Meng Shaoyuan. His existence can make Meng Shaoyuan divide Heart, can make Meng Shaoyuan exhausted. Giving up on him is tantamount to helping Meng Shaoyuan."

"So, what situation are we facing now?" Miao Chengfang asked rhetorically.

"Difficulties are temporary." Habara Koichi said coldly, "It's like two boxers fighting to see who can persevere to the end. Meng Shaoyuan can give us a blow, and we can also give him a heavy blow. He faces The difficulty of Shanghai is actually much greater than ours, after all, Shanghai is still ours!"

Miao Chengfang smiled: "Master Yu Yuan, I'm curious, why do you support Liao Yuting so much? Did you reach any agreement with him?"

Yu Yuanguang glanced at him: "Yes, there is an agreement."

Everyone was startled.

Habara Koichi said calmly, "But it's not the agreement I reached with him, but the agreement I reached with His Excellency Doihara."

"What? Your Excellency Doihara?"

This time, even Hitosuke Matsumoto was a little surprised.

"Yes, at this point, I think if I don't explain the situation, it may have a more adverse impact on Liao Yuting's situation." Habara Koichi took a deep breath:

"Do you really think that Liao Yuting hunted and killed Meng Shaoyuan at all costs for the 500 million yen? You can imagine how much manpower and material resources he used in the whole process of hunting and killing Meng Shaoyuan. Military agents, do they still have so much energy today?

Ladies and gentlemen, he was sent by His Excellency Doihara. Your Excellency commanded the No.14 Division to fight on the battlefield in China, but he is still very concerned about intelligence work. I reported to you the situation of Meng Shaoyuan in Shanghai. Your Excellency believes that the best way to deal with Meng Shaoyuan is The best way is to use the Chinese to deal with the Chinese.And Liao Yuting is a sharp knife in your hand. "

Hitotsu Matsumoto was a little dissatisfied.

This damned Shao Zuo skipped himself and reported the situation in Shanghai directly to General Doihara.Of course he knew that Koichi Habara was Kenji Doihara's subordinate in the past, but he couldn't tolerate this kind of leapfrog behavior.

It's just that Matsumoto Nitsutsu ignored one point. In the Japanese army, too many leapfrogs happened.

"As for me, I was ordered to give Liao Yuting full assistance." Hahara Koichi didn't care about other people's reactions at all: "Please believe that although Liao Yuting missed twice, he has already caused great trouble to Meng Shaoyuan. He will definitely succeed. The difficulties we face are also temporary, and the victory will surely belong to the Great Japanese Empire."

"Major Habara's determination really moved me." Hitotsu Matsumoto said something in his words: "Who can disobey His Excellency Doihara's order?"
