Masako Nanyun did not comment, but she was thinking in her heart that Yuan Shikai invited her to Kawateri Izakaya for a drink, and after they finished drinking and left, Ichiro Ozawa had an accident on the way.

Is there anything wrong with Yuan Shikai? Did he play a role in this?

There are only two possibilities. One is that the Military Control Commission had long been eyeing Ichiro Ozawa and had been looking for an opportunity to attack him. They happened to see him out drinking, so they took the opportunity to kidnap him on the road.

If this is the case, Yuan Shikai was just accidentally involved in this incident, which was purely a coincidence.

There is another possibility that this was a long-planned action. The Military Control Commission's Shanghai Station created an opportunity through Yuan Shikai to lure out Ichiro Ozawa, and Yuan Shikai was a participant in this action.

Masako Nanyun felt that both possibilities existed and she could not be sure that there was definitely something wrong with Yuan Shikai.

Ever since he witnessed Yuan Shikai shooting anti-Japanese elements in the interrogation room, his previous doubts about Yuan Shikai had long since disappeared, and he felt that this person could be trusted.

Now that something like this happened suddenly, out of professional sensitivity, she couldn't help but doubt whether her judgment of him was wrong?

She felt that she was increasingly unable to understand Yuan Shikai. What kind of person was he?

If there was something wrong with him, why would Iwai Yuichi trust him so much? Even General Kagezoe summoned him personally.

If he had no problems, why would these doubts arise?

After coming out of the interrogation room and returning to the office, Masako Nagumo told Yoshio Takemiya about her suspicions.

Takemiya Yoshio pondered for a moment and said:

"Your suspicion is not without reason, but I heard you say that he once mercilessly shot and killed anti-Japanese elements in the interrogation room of No. 76. Isn't he worthy of trust?

Moreover, he is the person that Miss Mitsuko loves, Iwai Yuichi also trusts him, and General Kagesawa has just summoned him, so you should be cautious in your suspicion of him."

Nanyun Masako nodded and said:

"Of course I know that I should treat it with caution. In fact, I just thought about it. He did shoot and kill an anti-Japanese element, but this anti-Japanese element was a member of the Red Party. If Yuan Shikai was a member of the Military Control Commission, it would be understandable to kill a member of the Red Party. After all, they had a grudge before, and maybe he cannot be proven to be trustworthy."

"Then what do you want to do?"

Takemiya Kazuo seemed to be persuaded by him.

Nanyun Masako rolled her eyes and said:

"I want to test him again, but I haven't thought about it yet."

She actually had a preliminary idea in her mind, but she had not yet formed a specific plan. She still needed time to think it over and perfect it.

If Yuan Shikai can pass this test, he should be trustworthy.

"Okay, you can test him, but I want to warn you that you must not leave any traces. He is from the Iwai Mansion. Don't let Iwai Yuichi think that we are deliberately targeting him. Our funds still need to be allocated through him. If the relationship is strained, it will not be good for us."

This is what Yoshio Takemiya was worried about. After all, Yuan Shikai was a member of the Iwai Mansion, and being too explicit might cause a bad influence. He admired Masako Nanyun's sense of responsibility, but he also had to be cautious about the Iwai Mansion, so he had to remind Masako Nanyun to be careful and cautious.

"Okay, Section Chief, I understand."

Then the two discussed capturing the tailor tomorrow night. This matter was also very important. Nanyun Masako knew that if the tailor could be caught, perhaps she could confirm from him whether Yuan Shikai was a member of the Military Control Commission, and there would be no need for her to test Yuan Shikai.

……

After the farewell dinner at Iwai Mansion was over, Yuan Ye knew that Tokugawa Mitsuko was worried and didn't want to stay here any longer, so he sat for a while and then took Tokugawa Mitsuko away and left.

Iwai Yuichi saw that Tokugawa Mitsuko looked absent-minded and it was not easy to keep her, so he and Su Xiwu and Iwata Kaoru sent them to the gate and watched them get in the car and leave before going back.

In the car, Tokugawa Mitsuko suggested going to Yuan Ye's house, and the two soon returned home.

Tokugawa Mitsuko was depressed and drank a little wine in the evening. Yuan Ye made her a cup of tea, then sat down next to her on the sofa and held her in his arms. He could feel Tokugawa Mitsuko's heart beating very fast and smiled:

"Now you can tell me, what happened that makes you feel bad?"

Tokugawa Mitsuko knew that Yuan Ye was going to ask, and although she felt a little nervous, she still mustered up the courage to say:

"Shi Kai, do you know what I saw in the archives this morning?"

"What did you see?"

Yuan Ye pretended to be curious.

When he held Tokugawa Mitsuko in his arms, he had already activated the ability to eavesdrop on her thoughts.

"When I was sorting through the archives, I saw some horrific photos showing Japanese soldiers brutally killing Chinese civilians in Nanjing. The scenes were so cruel that they were outrageous. I could never have imagined that something like this would happen."

When Tokugawa Mitsuko said this, Yuan Ye could feel her trembling in his arms.

In his previous life, he had visited the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall and saw the exhibits. Although he had expected it, the brutal atrocities committed by the Japanese pirates still exceeded his imagination. He was indescribably indignant at the time, and his whole mood was very bad. It took him several days to recover.

"This is simply inhumane and worse than animal behavior. I understand how you feel!"

Yuan Ye said angrily.

"Shi Kai, do you think so too?"

Tokugawa Mitsuko was excited and said with her face raised.

She thought Yuan Ye would not believe it and would even make excuses for the Japanese. After all, he was now serving the Japanese.

But he did not do that at all, instead he was filled with righteous indignation and condemned without thinking.

She could see that he was sincere, which showed that their hearts were connected. Although he was serving the Japanese, he was a kind and conscientious person in his heart.

This gave her hope that Shi Kai might agree to leave here with him.

"Of course I think so. Any normal person would think so, unless the person is a beast!"

Yuan Ye thought, maybe calling some people beasts is an exaggeration, and in fact some people are worse than beasts.

Tokugawa Mitsuko sat up straight, looked at Yuan Ye, and said a little excitedly:

"Shi Kai, I don't want you to serve our country, that would be aiding and abetting evil.

Let's get out of here, away from this disgusting war.

As long as you agree, I will follow you wherever you go, and we will be together forever, whether we go to Japan or other countries, you have the final say."

After saying that, she held Yuan Ye's hand tightly, her eyes full of anticipation.
