Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

After hearing this, Kagesa Makiaki was quite satisfied. He felt that this was a good way of handling the matter. It not only punished the perpetrator, but also maintained the reputation of the Tokugawa family, and it was also relatively low-key.

He agreed with Shirakawa Io's suggestion of how to deal with the matter, but stressed that it must not be made public and must be carried out in secret and as quickly as possible.

He also asked Shirakawa Io to personally apologize to Tokugawa Mitsuko, tell her the results of the treatment, and seek her forgiveness.

When Shirakawa Io heard that General Kagezawa agreed with his opinion, he felt relieved and naturally did not dare to neglect his request.

As soon as he hung up the phone, he asked someone to call Captain Maeda, announced the decision to punish Seya, and ordered Maeda to deal with the matter immediately and send someone to escort Seya to the front-line troops.

After giving the order, he left the gendarmerie and went to the Special Higher Police, ready to apologize to Miss Mitsuko in person.

At this time in the solitary confinement room, Seya was leaning against the head of the bed, unaware of the seriousness of the matter. He just drank a little too much last night and acted a little bit inappropriately, which was not a big deal. What's more, the man was Chinese. Even if he was beaten to death, so what? Aren't there many Chinese people who died in his hands?

Seya didn't take it seriously. He thought that Colonel Shirakawa was making a big deal out of nothing. He even put himself in solitary confinement. He didn't know how long he would be in solitary confinement, probably just one or two days.

When he was feeling bored in the solitary confinement room, he heard the sound of a lock being unlocked outside the solitary confinement room.

He was delighted, as he didn't expect that Colonel Shirakawa would release him after only one night.

Although the conditions in the solitary confinement cell were good, there was no freedom after all. Who would want to stay in there any longer? People would suffocate to death. He immediately walked to the door, ready to welcome freedom.

The door was pushed open, and he saw Captain Maeda standing outside with a piece of paper in his hand, and behind him stood a second lieutenant and two soldiers.

He felt a little strange and asked:

"Maeda-kun, am I done with my confinement?"

At this time, he already had a bad feeling in his heart. If Captain Maeda really came to announce the end of confinement, why would he have to bring so many people with him? Isn't this a waste of time?

Looking at the posture, it seems like they are escorting an important prisoner. It's just a trivial matter. Is it necessary to mobilize such a large force?

He looked at Maeda, who had no expression on his face, with a bit of trepidation, and saw Maeda slowly speaking:

"Saya-kun, because you have seriously violated military discipline, you have been stripped of your rank and demoted to private first class.

Colonel Shirakawa ordered me to send you to the front-line combat unit.

I will take you to pack your things now, and then we will set off to the front-line troops."

Maeda's words stunned Seya, as if he had been hit hard, and he stood there in a daze.

Maeda looked at Seya's stunned expression and handed the paper in his hand to Seya.

"This is the penalty letter, take a look at it."

Seya's mind went blank. He took the punishment letter and took a look at it. Seeing the words written in black and white, he couldn't believe his eyes!

He came to his senses a little, but couldn't understand why he was punished so severely for just a small crime. He was stripped of his military rank and sent to the front. He knew what that meant: he was sent to the front to die.

This kind of thing happened in the gendarmerie before. A man committed a crime and was sent to the front line to engage the enemy, and was killed in a charge.

But that person committed a very serious crime. It was because of a conflict that he had an argument and fight with a colleague and accidentally killed his colleague.

But how can my own thing compare with this?

Seya couldn't figure it out, so he shouted at Maeda:

"Maeda-kun, how is this possible!

Please take me to see Colonel Shirakawa, I want to ask why?"

Maeda shook his head seriously and said:

"I'm sorry, Seya-kun, Colonel Shirakawa is out for something, you should come with me."

In fact, Maeda felt a little sympathetic towards Seya. He was there last night and saw what Seya did, but he didn't think it was a big deal.

When he heard Colonel Shirakawa tell him about the decision to punish Seya, he was a little surprised and felt that Colonel Shirakawa was making a fuss about nothing. It was just harassing a Chinese woman, and he was stopped before he opened fire. She was not killed. It was not a serious violation of military discipline at all. He would just be put in solitary confinement for two days at most.

He knew that Seya actually had a good relationship with Colonel Shirakawa. There must be a reason why Colonel Shirakawa was so ruthless and severely punished Seya, even sending him to the front line to die.

But Shirakawa didn't tell him why, and he didn't dare to ask. Out of friendship with his colleagues, he still spoke up for Seya and asked Colonel Shirakawa to reconsider whether the punishment was too harsh.

He didn't expect to be scolded by him. Seeing that Colonel Shirakawa seemed to be very annoyed, he was so scared that he dared not say a word.

When Seya heard Maeda say that Colonel Shirakawa had gone out, he knew that Colonel Shirakawa must have deliberately not wanted to see him, and there must be a reason for this.

Although he was unwilling, there was nothing he could do. He could only sigh, walk out of the confinement room dejectedly, and go to his dormitory with Maeda.

Maeda watched Seya pack up his things and asked others to guard outside the door. Seya saw that there was no one around, so he asked in a low voice:

"Maeda-kun, for the sake of our friendship, can you please tell me the truth and tell me what is going on?"

Maeda shook his head with a wry smile and said:

“Seya-kun, I really don’t know why, the colonel didn’t tell me.

Think about it carefully, have you offended Colonel Shirakawa?

Or is there some other reason?"

Captain Maeda actually also wanted to know the answer.

Seya was a little disappointed and thought, how could he possibly offend Colonel Shirakawa? On the contrary, he had a very good relationship with him.

He arrested many Chinese people in the name of anti-Japanese elements. He knew very well that many of them were innocent, so he extorted a lot of money from them. Only a few people could afford the large ransom. Of course, most people who could not afford it had to die in the gendarmerie.

He gave most of the money he extorted to Colonel Shirakawa, and for this Colonel Shirakawa appreciated him very much. He was Colonel Shirakawa's cash cow, so why did the colonel treat him like this?

The images of the Chinese woman and the Chinese man suddenly flashed through his mind. Could it be because of them?

These two people came with Chai Ruhai, the head of the secretariat of the municipal government, and they are also from the secretariat.

They are just two small characters, could there be any deeper background?

Otherwise, why would Colonel Shirakawa treat him like this? It must be these two Chinese who harmed him. He really couldn't think of a better reason.

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel hatred. He would never let these two Chinese people go, especially that Chinese woman, who actually humiliated him, a dignified imperial soldier, at the party.

So he secretly made up his mind.
