My years of espionage

"I'm staring at Hou Kuiyuan." Fatty said.

"What do you mean?" Li Hao asked.

"It's just that I saw Hou Kuiyuan always looking towards the door today..." Fat Tou said, scratching his head and trying to formulate appropriate expressions.

"Do you suspect that the person Hou Kuiyuan is looking for will come to the teahouse today?" Li Hao asked with a thought in his heart.

"Yes, yes, yes." Fatty nodded fiercely, "As expected of Brother Hao, I think so too."

"Is Hou Kuiyuan the one with the triangle eyes?" Li Hao asked, he had some impression of this person.

"Yes." Fatty nodded.

"Go." Li Hao said, "Remember, don't mention this matter to anyone again."

"Brother Hao, do you need me to keep staring at Hou Kuiyuan?" Fatty asked suddenly.

Li Hao glanced at Fat Tou, thought for a while, and nodded slightly.

Then he took out his wallet from his pocket and took out two banknotes.

The fat man showed a flattering and expectant smile, his eyes fixed on the banknotes.

"Take it." Li Hao laughed.

"Brother Xie Hao." The fat man quickly took the banknotes, carefully put them away, and left happily.

……

Li Hao grabbed a handful of melon seeds in his hand and walked down the wooden stairs. At the bottom of the staircase, Li Hao waved to a bearded man, "Boss Cui."

"Brother Hao." Cui Ahuan ran over and hugged Li Hao, "If you have anything to do, just ask."

"Okay, this outfit." Li Hao looked at Cui Ahuan up and down, "Now he looks like a dog."

"Brother Hao gave me the face and food to eat." Cui Ahuan had a flattering smile on his face and offered a cigarette.

Li Hao and Cui Ahuan had a lively chat, and from time to time he was laughed at by Cui Ahuan's flattery.

His peripheral vision swept across the tea room on the first floor, and soon he saw Hou Kuiyuan.

Hou Kuiyuan stood near the entrance, wiping the tabletop.

A smile appeared at the corner of Li Hao's mouth. He noticed that the rag in Hou Kuiyuan's hand had been wiping that area, and his eyes were always looking towards the door subconsciously.

Fat Tou was right, Hou Kuiyuan was looking for someone.

what.

Li Hao let out a light sigh in his heart, and he made a detailed discovery:

Hou Kuiyuan looked at the door from time to time, and then after a while, the guy's eyes would turn to the northwest table. He would shake his head, and then the tea guest sitting at that table would nod slightly, then pick up the tea cup and drink tea slowly.

There is something wrong with this person.

……

"Uncle Sakamoto's article in the Asahi Shimbun aroused heated discussion." Cheng Qianfan clinked glasses with Sakamoto Yoshino and said, "As far as he knows, especially the military department, they greatly praised the professor's proposal. "

"What article?" Sakamoto Yoshino was a little confused.

During this time, he had been collecting information and materials, planning to write a novella about the imperial expatriates living in Shanghai, without paying attention to his father's works.

Cheng Qianfan pointed at Sakamoto Yoshino and said with a smile, "Next time I see Uncle Sakamoto, I will definitely tell the truth about this matter."

As he spoke, he introduced Sakamoto Yoshino to Sakamoto Nagayuki's article published in Japan's "Asahi Shimbun".

Previously, Nagayuki Sakamoto, as a celebrity representative of the Japanese cultural circle, entered the barracks of the Japanese invaders to express condolences and visit, and communicated with some Japanese soldiers and their families.

Subsequently, Sakamoto Nagayuki issued an article calling for the compilation of "Collection of Posthumous Essays of Heroes in China". This famous Japanese writer loudly called for the publication of "posthumous essays" for those Japanese soldiers who died in the war of aggression against China, in order to promote the so-called " Bravery" and "Imperial Spirit".

Sakamoto Nagayuki exclaimed in the article that he believed that these "Japanese soldiers' writings" were the real "crystallization of the Japanese spirit".

Sakamoto Nagayuki's appeal aroused considerable response in Japan, especially the military, which greatly appreciated it and expressed that it would seriously consider Professor Sakamoto's insights.

Cheng Qianfan saw the Asahi Shimbun report from the empire from Kawada Atsuhito. At that time, he praised Sakamoto Nagayuki's advice as "as precious as gold", but he snorted and secretly resented it in his heart.

……

In fact, few Japanese cultural intellectuals had clean hands when it came to the invasion of China.

Take Enki Ito, a representative of Japan's Kyoto School whom Cheng Qianfan is familiar with.

This Professor Ito once came to Shanghai East Asia Tongwen College to give lectures. Cheng Qianfan listened to this lecture at that time. In the lecture, Enyi Ito gave a special speech on Japan-China friendship, expressing his admiration for Chinese culture and his willingness to devote his life to peace between Japan and China. strength.

In China's cultural circles, everyone still respects Professor Ito and thinks he is a highly respected old man who "loves China" and "dedicates himself to Chinese culture."

Some scholars even regard Engi Ito as the conscience of the Japanese cultural community, believing that the Sino-Japanese armistice and the hope for Sino-Japanese peace lie in the hands of people like Engi Ito.

As everyone knows, it was Enki Ito who was the first to advocate the "war against China" in the Japanese cultural circle.

This person even visited China nearly ten times in person in the name of visiting China, and was warmly welcomed by the national education department and major universities.

In fact, just as Kentaro Miyazaki conducted espionage in the name of a troubadour, Enki Ito's main mission during his visit to China was to inspect the situation in Northeast China on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and to explore the reality in preparation for occupation. An out-and-out think tank on the "national policy of invading China".

"It would be very meaningful if the legacy of soldiers who died in a foreign country could be recorded." Sakamoto Yoshino nodded and said.

He just thought about the locust soldiers who died in China. Their bodies were left in China, rotting, turning into nutrients to nourish this ancient land, and those relics were the most meaningful memorials in the souls of these people. , Sakamoto Yoshino felt that his father's proposal was indeed a good one.

"Sakamoto-kun, you can also enter the military camp of the Locust Army, talk to these warriors who are fighting in foreign lands, understand their thoughts, or help them write letters home." Cheng Qianfan smiled and said to Sakamoto Yoshino, "That's it. , which is also a show of solidarity and support for Uncle Sakamoto.”

"Good idea." Sakamoto Yoshino thought for a moment and nodded.

He was quite interested in studying the remains of the Locust Army soldiers. Besides, this might be a good opportunity to accumulate materials.

……

"Miyazaki-kun, do you want to participate together?" Sakamoto Yoshino thought for a while and asked.

He also remembered that Miyazaki Kentaro used to travel around China in the name of a troubadour.

Moreover, since this idea was proposed by Miyazaki Kentaro, Sakamoto Ryano felt that his good friend should also be interested in this matter.

"I'm quite interested." Cheng Qianfan said thoughtfully, "It's just my identity..."

He shook his head.

"It doesn't matter." When Sakamoto Ryano heard what Miyazaki Kentaro said, he also became more interested and enthusiastic, "I will arrange this matter, and I will definitely be able to think of a way to get the best of both worlds." "Then I'll wait and see. Yes." Cheng Qianfan said happily.

For people like him, entering the Japanese military camp is like a mouse entering a rice vat? Just thinking about it makes me excited and excited.

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

"Brother Fan." Li Hao stood at the door and winked secretly at Cheng Qianfan.

"Sakamoto-kun, please excuse me for a moment." Cheng Qianfan said.

"Miyazaki-kun, please help yourself." Sakamoto Yoshino put down the crab apple cake he just picked up and said.

……

"Can you confirm the identity of that person?" Cheng Qianfan couldn't help but ask after listening to Li Hao's report.

"It's impossible to be sure," Li Hao said, "but it's basically certain that that person should be the one who asked Hou Kuiyuan to find someone."

He had just secretly observed for a while and confirmed that Hou Kuiyuan had made eye contact with that person twice more. Basically, he could confirm that that person was the "instructor" who found Hou Kuiyuan and identified him.

"There should be more than just that one person." Cheng Qianfan rubbed his chin and said after thinking for a moment.

He felt that he could basically rule out the possibility that the other party was an ordinary person looking for relatives and friends.

Even the possibility of seeking revenge is not great.

Intuition, or a familiar feeling told him that this was more like a secret service operation to arrest people.

And if this is indeed possible, then the other party should definitely not only be one person, but also have other accomplices, ready to launch arrest operations at any time.

"Brother Fan, what should we do now?" Li Hao asked.

"What to do? Don't do anything!" Cheng Qianfan glanced at Haozi, "The possibility that the other party is coming for us is not high, and we don't know how many of them are lurking in secret. Once we have Any movement is tantamount to setting fire to oneself and may bring serious consequences."

"If it wasn't us, it would be the Red Party, maybe the Central Unification..." Li Hao said, "It might also be for the Shanghai District."

"Just wait and see what happens. Don't act rashly without my order." Cheng Qianfan said directly, "You should pay close attention here and report to me if there is any movement."

He was thinking quickly in his mind, inferring who the one who took the person and the one who was targeted were from.

The party that takes the person must first rule out the possibility of patrol room.

This is the Central District of the French Concession. Even if Cardinal Zhao's plainclothes detectives want to arrest people in the French Concession, they cannot avoid him, the Deputy Chief Inspector of the Central District Patrol Room.

In other words, any actions of the patrol house in the French Concession could not be concealed from 'Mr. Xiao Cheng', and they did not dare to hide it, except of course, with his great enemy Zhao Zhao. However, if it was really Inspector Zhao's people who were there, If he does something, he won't have to worry anymore.

After ruling out the possibility of the patrol room, it is most likely that No. 76 is Japanese.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that this group of people is from Chongqing, or even the possibility that this group of people is from the Red Party.

If this is the case, the target they want to attack is most likely a traitor spy.

Vice versa, if the person who wants to take action is No. 76, the Japanese secret service, etc., then their goal is basically inseparable from the possibility of Chongqing and the Red Party.

Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette. It was really difficult for him to judge based on the meager information at hand. In extreme cases, the person who did it might be one of his own, and the person who was targeted might be a traitor or a Japanese.

Therefore, he could only order Li Hao to wait and see what happened, and not to act rashly without his order.

From a safety perspective, this is the safest approach.

……

"What happened?" Sakamoto Yoshino asked, "If something happens to Miyazaki-kun, you can go about your business."

"It's not a big deal." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, "My subordinates just can't take charge of some things."

"Miyazaki-kun, I really admire you." Sakamoto Yoshino said in a low voice.

"Huh?" Cheng Qianfan glanced at Sakamoto Yoshino, and his suspicious character made him think too much.

"You pretended to be Cheng Qianfan, and then you were able to do it so well." Sakamoto Yoshino said in a low voice, with praise in his tone.

"It's just about trying your best." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and said with a wry smile, "In our line of work, we are not afraid of hardship, hardship, or even sacrifice..."

He glanced at Sakamoto Yoshino, but suddenly smiled and said, "Of course, for me, I am not afraid to express my love for life."

Sakamoto Yoshino laughed.

"What I fear most is being misunderstood." Cheng Qianfan looked a little lonely, "In front of the teacher, there are some things I cannot say."

He shook his head, "Every time I think about Qianbeiharaji's investigation and testing of me, I feel sad and angry."

With that said, Cheng Qianfan came to the window sill. He opened the window and looked at the road downstairs.

When Sakamoto Yoshino heard Kentaro Miyazaki talking like this, he wanted to say something comforting, but he was really not good at doing this.

"If you are really bored..." Sakamoto Yoshino said, "Then find a way to deal with Chikitaharaji."

"How is this possible!" Cheng Qianfan almost blurted out, and then he saw Sakamoto Yoshino staring at him, and the teasing look in the corner of his eyes, Cheng Qianfan chuckled, "This Qianbei-kun is really Mysteriously, even if I want to find someone to deal with him, it is difficult to do so."

"I can try to help." Sakamoto Yoshino thought for a while and said.

He is indeed very interested in this kind of thing.

Thinking of Miyazaki Kentaro, an anonymous outstanding imperial agent, who was offended by unwarranted suspicions and temptations within his own party, and then launched a counterattack, targeting his fellow agents.

Just thinking about this picture and scene made Sakamoto Yoshino quite excited.

He even pretended to be the author of a novel he would write in the future. He felt that just like this, a lurker had caused repeated suspicions and investigations by the Imperial Secret Service because of his successful lurking, and even caused misunderstandings and friction within his own party. This is almost like something out of a novel——

My favorite plot.

"Miyazaki-kun, what are you looking at?" Sakamoto Yoshino asked. He noticed that Miyazaki Kentaro seemed to be staring at the busy road below.

"A beautiful lady." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, pointing to a blond foreign lady outside the main entrance of Chunfeng Deyi Building who was directing a friend to take photos.

His gaze looked beyond these people and onto Luo Yannian, who was walking towards Chunfeng Deyi Building.

His heart skipped a beat and sank suddenly:

He knew who the enemy was targeting.
