Lost and Spy

Chapter 831 Talent Competition
Missing hostage rescued!

The big and small newspapers in Shanghai published the news at the same time!

Colonel Dotney of the Italian military battalion in the public concession ordered his subordinate, Major Duyeri, to successfully raid the warehouse after obtaining sufficient information.

After 10 minutes of fierce fighting between the two sides, Italian soldiers killed 15 kidnappers and captured three of them alive. They also successfully rescued the missing hostages, former Italian Aditi Death Squad Commander Roli Gani and his wife Jobrina.

Someone once questioned that according to the memories of passers-by who witnessed the whole incident at that time, there were only three kidnappers in total, and only a few shots were fired at the scene.

To this, Colonel Dotney sternly refuted, solemnly declaring that the kidnappers are an organized criminal gang with a large number of people and powerful firepower. If it were not for the brave and fearless Italian soldiers, it would be difficult to win.

Whatever the truth, the Raleigh-Ganis are finally saved.

A farce can be regarded as the end.

As for the Englishman "Madgan", according to the Raleigh Garney couple afterwards, he found an opportunity to escape the day after the kidnapping.

How the Raoligani couple was kidnapped, and how the Raoligani couple who have been rushed to the Italian consulate responded, is unknown.

Anyway, the Italian side has not released any documents from the beginning to the end.

On the Japanese side, a hanging heart was finally let go.

Everyone knew that this was done by Meng Shaoyuan and the military commanders, not those so-called gang members.

However, the Japanese will not end up like this.

They also have no way to pursue it.

After all, as long as the person concerned does not speak up or admit it, this matter will always be an unsolved case.

But no matter for the Japanese Shanghai Navy, consulates, and secret service agencies, this is a relatively perfect ending.

No one has to bear the pressure from the country all day long, and can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Playing dumb is often a necessary survival rule in the workplace.

The biggest contributors are undoubtedly two:
Yanagawa Yasujun and Tian Qi!
The man was discovered by Yanagawa Yasujun and cleverly rescued by the Italians.

Minister Tani and Kenji Doihara are especially grateful for this.

Otherwise, the Raleigh Garney couple who were rescued would become a big trouble.

Tian Qi, as Yanagawa Kojun's deputy, also made great contributions.

In Yanagawa Yasushi's report, Tian Qi was evaluated as follows:
"...He has fully demonstrated his understanding of Shanghai...His tenacity, wisdom, and loyalty all show that he is the kind of talent that the empire urgently needs..."

For a Chinese, this is already a very high evaluation.

Yanagawa Kojun's doubts about Tian Qi were completely resolved.

He even thanked Tian Qi for helping him, for helping the Great Japanese Empire so much.

Many Japanese people know well that Tian Qi is the protagonist who successfully rescued the Raleigh Gani couple.

But Tian Qi firmly denied this.

When he was asked by Kenji Doihara, he answered like this:
"It was all done by Mr. Yanagawa, I just helped him a bit... Do I have any credit? Yes, but compared to Mr. Yanagawa, it is nothing at all..."

He gave most of the credit to Yanagawa Kojun.

This is also the way to survive in the workplace.

Those who have meritorious service all belong to the superiors.If you have, you have to dare to bear it.

In this way, the superior will favor you more.

"Mr. Tian, ​​I hope you can continue to serve the empire in the future."

Kenji Doihara is obviously very satisfied with Tian Qi's attitude: "I can tell you frankly that in this incident, we suffered considerable losses, a large number of contact points were destroyed, and our agents were killed. The little balance of power that was so hard-won is gone, so rebuilding is a priority."

reconstruction?

Tian Qi's heart moved.

Kenji Doihara continued: "I have discussed with Yanagawa-kun for a long time, and we have reached a consensus. Do the Chinese want to guard against it? Yes...Mr. Tian, ​​I am not targeting you, you are trustworthy...Do the Chinese want to use it? Yes! And it needs to be reused, especially for a talent like you... Liu Chuan-kun really wants you to help him, what does Mr. Tian mean?"

In the flash, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Tian Qi's mind.

If this plan can be successful, then his status will be greatly improved.

Tian Qi sighed softly: "I am very grateful for your kindness, Your Excellency, Director of the Agency. My attitude has already been explained to Mr. Yanagawa before. I hope to cooperate with Zhongzuo Yuyuan more. It makes me feel relaxed and happy."

Relaxed and happy?From the mouth of an agent, a traitor?
Of course, Kenji Doihara also knew that Yanagawa Kosumi made Tian Qi sad because of the previous distrust. After all, even being a traitor has dignity.

"Mr. Tian, ​​I respect your choice." Kenji Doihara decided to try his best to persuade him: "Hawara Koichi is also serving the empire, but in fact, they should not be divided between each other. However, Yanagawa-kun is a meritorious service to the empire after all. You have done a lot of things with humiliation, so I think you can still reconsider."

Kenji Doihara was really in a dilemma.

Yanagawa Kojun told him very clearly that this time, he does not need any rewards. The only condition is to let Tian Qi become his assistant.

But now Tian Qi's attitude is so firm?

Kenji Doihara cannot openly show favoritism.

"Actually, they are all working for the Great Japanese Empire, so what is the difference between them?" Tian Qi said lightly: "You have established a special work department, and everyone works in this work department. Everyone is a family. It’s not that there are any new departments. And I also heard that you have sent His Excellency Qingqi Qingyin to Hong Kong to invite some important person to Shanghai. Ah, is there a new department to be formed? That will let us in Shanghai's strength has been greatly enhanced."

Doihara Kenji's heart skipped a beat.

He sent Qingqi Qingyin to Hong Kong to negotiate with Li Shiqun in secret, and to come to Shanghai to form a secret service organization composed mostly of Chinese and to cooperate with Japanese secret agencies.

During this period, Kenji Doihara also had a long period of reflection. In Greater Shanghai, it was impossible to achieve a substantial breakthrough by relying solely on Japan's own strength.

The Chinese are bound to play an increasingly important role in it.

Li Shiqun is a very important object of his.

However, Li Shiqun put forward a lot of demands, and he was unable to make a final decision. At this time, Qingqi Qingyin might be negotiating for a long time with Li Shiqun in Hong Kong?

Tian Qi!

Why can't Tian Qi be fully utilized?
On the one hand, this can accumulate experience for the future; on the other hand, it can also put pressure on Li Shiqun, telling him that the Great Japanese Empire may not necessarily use you, we have other options!

And the most important point is that it can create competition.

Only when there is competition will we continue to make progress!

"I have been looking for the Pearl, but I never thought that the Pearl is actually beside me." Kenji Doihara did not express his thoughts:
"Mr. Tian, ​​there are some things that I need to think about carefully. You are also tired, so go back and rest."

"Ok."

Tian Qi stood up.

He doesn't need Kenji Doihara to promise himself anything right now.

But he knew that a seed had already been planted in Kenji Doihara's heart.

What he has to do is how to use external forces to make this seed take root and germinate quickly.

At this time, Tian Qi was in high spirits.

Only he understands the feeling of regaining trust and gaining power.

"Mr. Tian."

Habara Koichi had been waiting for him outside for a long time: "Your Excellency, the chief of the agency must have given you a great evaluation. See, I came here to pick you up and celebrate your achievements. I ordered a small table of meals."

"It's not bad, let's talk in the car."

Tian Qiyi got into the car, and immediately said: "Your Excellency, the director of the agency, has a good evaluation of me, but he suggested that I be Mr. Liu Chuan's assistant."

Hikaru Habara frowned.

That wasn't what he wanted to hear.

Obtaining Tian Qi is equivalent to adding the most important arm.

He knew this from a long time ago.

Yanagawa Yasujun?

That Yanagawa Kojun who extremely distrusts Tian Qi?

After proving that Tian Qi is reliable, trustworthy, and discovering great value from him, is he ready to fight for Tian Qi again?
But Habara Koichi couldn't compete with Yanagawa Kozumi.

Yanagawa Kosumi has a higher official rank than him, and he is more trusted and valued by Kenji Doihara.

The most important thing is probably Tian Qi's attitude.

"Then what do you think, Mr. Tian?" Habara Koichi asked casually.

Tian Qi did not answer immediately.

He was silent for a while and then said: "I have clearly told Your Excellency the Director and Mr. Yanagawa that I prefer to work with you."

A smile appeared on Habara Koichi's face.

Tian Qi said very seriously: "I didn't mean to flatter you because you were by my side, but I said it very seriously. Everyone needs to be trusted, and traitors are no exception. Mr. Yanagawa let me from the beginning I feel very sad, it is difficult for me to cooperate with such a person. Trust, it is too difficult to achieve these two words.

However, Mr. Habara, the decision-making power for many things is not in our hands, we can only passively obey orders.But if I was really forced to become Mr. Yanagawa's subordinate, I would feel very awkward and unhappy.Habara-san, I personally beg you to explain this to the Director of the Agency. "

"This makes it difficult for me." Habara Koichi smiled bitterly: "You are my friend, I don't want to deceive my friend, I have no way to compete with His Excellency Yanagawa. But please rest assured, I will find a way, I will definitely find a way."

Tian Qi didn't go any further, he knew that it was almost the same at this point, and the rest was to let the Japanese take the initiative to make certain demands.All you have to do is wait patiently.

A Chinese, but can let the Japanese fight?

Thinking of this, Tian Qi still feels something to be proud of!
