Half an hour later, No. 3, wearing the uniform of the Tiger Guards and holding the rank of colonel, walked into the Matsuda Corporation branch with a saber.

After not seeing him for half a year, No. 3 seemed to be more stable than before, but the unchanged look in his eyes made Lao Sun recognize No. 3 in new clothes at a glance.

"Sir, your makeup still looks very familiar to me!" Number Three smiled and looked at Old Sun, who had changed his 'face'.

"Comrade liaison officer, you haven't changed either!" Old Sun stared at No. 3's outfit in a daze.

"Sir, I heard you were looking for someone. I will take you directly to the office of the Military Reform Commission to find the files. That should be faster!" Number Three looked at the stunned Old Sun and said with a smile, making a gesture of invitation.

"Then I'll trouble you, comrade liaison officer. But is this what Comrade Guohezu said about your work within the 'Japanese puppet regime'? I thought you were the scoundrels from the police station at first!"

Old Sun came back to his senses and looked No. 3 up and down carefully. After seeing the rank of colonel, he said with some amusement.

Although he had always had various speculations about the identities of Zhou Ke, No. 3 and others, what he thought about most was that Zhou Ke had an identity and status in Japan that was far higher than other traitors.

They are partners who help Japan make money, and their status is even higher than that of ordinary Japanese. But now the uniform with the rank of colonel on No. 3 makes Old Sun feel that his previous judgment was a bit too conservative.

Now, No. 3 is already a colonel, so what rank will the head of the family mentioned by No. 3, Comrade Guohezu, be?

"Your judgment is not entirely wrong. We and the owner of the house did work in the police station before. But that doesn't matter anymore!" No. 3 explained with a smile.

"So all along, you have been able to obtain intelligence so quickly simply because you already have the intelligence in your hands, right?" Old Sun asked.

"That's right, including this yard and the two neighboring houses next to it are actually our property!" No. 3 replied.

"Could it be that Comrade Guohezu is the head of the Matsuda family? The Tiger Guard Division Army Branch and the current Matsuda Military Police Regiment are exactly your sphere of influence!"

"Well, it all makes sense!... But that's not right. You are a colonel, and as far as I know, the commander of the Matsuda Military Police Regiment is also a colonel..." Lao Sun felt that his point of view was somewhat inconsistent.

"Sir, you will understand everything when you meet our patriarch later, so I won't tell you in advance!"

As soon as No. 3 saw Lao Sun's expression, he knew that the other party must have been confused by the specific identity and background of his own head who was online under multiple aliases at the same time.

"No wonder Commander Li has been praising you for your high military accomplishments. It turns out that you are actually a leader among professional soldiers!"

"I've thought before that you were related to the Tiger Guards and the Matsuda Military Police, but I never thought that you were one of them!"

Old Sun followed No. 3 out of the yard, but along the way he couldn't help but keep turning his head to look at No. 3 beside him.

Now, as No. 3's identity has surfaced, the fog surrounding Comrade Guohezu has gradually been dispelled. However, No. 3's rank of colonel still makes Lao Sun feel a sense of unreality for no reason.

"Loyalty!" As the two men walked out of the yard of Matsuda Corporation, the accompanying soldiers waiting in line outside the door shouted in loud voices.

"Sir, let me show you our latest armored personnel carrier." No. 3 took Lao Sun to a system-improved version of the Type 1 full-track armored personnel carrier.

"With so many soldiers accompanying you, your vehicle looks very high-end! Comrade liaison officer, now don't even mention that you are a colonel. I would believe it even if you say you are the commander of the Tiger Army!" Old Sun, who rode in an armored vehicle for the first time, couldn't help but sigh.

"Not really. It would be a bit too much to say that I'm the commander. Bringing so many people out is a habit we've developed since we were in the Matsuda Military Police Regiment!"

"You don't know, because of the special nature of our identities, we have always been afraid of being assassinated by our own comrades..." No. 3 and Lao Sun talked about the past in the car.

.........

Forty minutes later, as the Type 1 fully tracked armored personnel carrier stopped, No. 3 and Lao Sun arrived at the former Plum Blossom Hall, now the downstairs of the Military Reform Commission.

"Sir, are we going to go in like this?"

Everyone who does intelligence work in Shanghai is familiar with the Meihuatang. Old Sun couldn't help feeling a little nervous when he saw the high-ranking officials with red armbands and general ranks coming in and out. He even subconsciously changed the way he addressed No. 3.

"Sir, just follow me. Do you see those people with red armbands with the word tiger written on them? They are our people!" Number Three came up to Lao Sun and explained.

"Your status is not ordinary!" Looking at the red armband that saluted No. 3 from time to time, Old Sun, after preparing himself mentally, followed No. 3 into the building of the Military Reform Commission.

As soon as he reached the third floor, Lao Sun saw a group of generals walking towards him, and among this group of generals, there were actually two familiar faces.

"You're back. The commander is waiting for you in the room!" Ozawa Jirokuro, who was walking in front, greeted No. 3 in a familiar manner.

"You guys are busy. I'll be there now." Number Three said as he took Old Sun and continued walking towards Zhou Ke's office.

When passing by Isamu Yokoyama and Hiromoto Mori, the two of them showed their big customer Lao Sun a very bright and sincere smile from the bottom of their hearts. It felt as if they had seen the God of Wealth!

"Those two are actually generals now. I remember they were just lieutenants when I met them before!" Old Sun said with some sigh.

From the perspective of ordinary people, it is outrageous that two officers from the gendarmerie who were more or less guilty of treason were promoted so quickly!

"Hey, sir, if you were not in the same camp as us, I guarantee that you would at least be a colonel by now, and even a general is not impossible!"

Number Three said this and brought Old Sun to an office with a label that read 'Chairman of the Military Reform Commission' and knocked on the door.

"Come in!" A familiar voice sounded from the office.

Old Sun felt as if he was in another world as he followed No. 3 into the office. What caught his eye was a strange face that looked somewhat familiar.

"Comrade Fisherman, we meet again!" The young general in the uniform of the Tiger Guards stood up with a smile and looked at Old Sun who was a little excited.

In an instant, the two seemed to have returned to the riverside near Hujiang University where they first met many years ago!
