The next day, in Zhou Ke’s office at the Third Branch.

"Zhang Xu, the anti-Japanese elements have been very arrogant recently, especially there are quite a few enemy undercover agents among us! Do you have any ideas on how to crack down on the enemy spies?" Zhou Ke asked casually, holding a cup of chrysanthemum tea.

"Senior, I have been targeting people from the Manchurian Railway Investigation Division recently, causing many of their operations against anti-Japanese elements to fail. But senior, you must believe me, this is purely a personal grudge, and I am definitely not an undercover!" Seeing Zhou Ke say this, Zhang Xu thought he was being suspected, and hurriedly explained.

Since a series of events that happened after his sister was abducted, Zhang Xu completely hated the Manchuria Railway. The reason why he frequently attacked the Manchuria Railway Investigation Department was entirely to vent his anger for himself and his sister who had lost contact for a long time.

"What are you talking about? How can I doubt you? You've been doing great lately, keep it up!"

Zhou Ke interrupted Zhang Xu's self-critical speech. If anyone targeted Mantetsu, Zhou Ke would not help them, but how could he possibly strike down the enthusiasm of those who were at the forefront?

"Then senior, you..." Zhang Xu felt a little confused at this time.

"Don't you think the people from Mantetsu are suspicious?" Zhou Ke said something that made Zhang Xu even more confused.

"Suspicious?" Zhang Xu thought about it and finally figured out what was suspicious about the Mantetsu.

"I suspect their leader is delivering supplies to the anti-Japanese elements!" Zhou Ke said, touching his chin.

"Uh, Senior, this is unlikely, right? Although Kumaji Kumagawa is a businessman, he is still very loyal to the empire!"

Even though Zhang Xu had always disliked the people of the Manchuria Railway, he did not think that the person in charge of the Manchuria Railway in Shanghai could be an undercover sent by the rebels.

"Sometimes, loyalty to the empire is just a clever cover-up for undercover agents! Just look at how much the empire has lost because of the Manchurian Railway!" Zhou Ke said patiently.

"Senior, don't tell me, it seems to be true! My sister and the others might be scapegoats!"

As if he thought of something, Zhang Xu's eyes turned red in an instant. If Kumaji Bone River was really an undercover agent, then his sister who was most likely wrongly accused would be in great danger.

"How can a grown man not be strong at all! There are several waves of resistance forces. The person who saved your sister is obviously not from the same family as him. Otherwise, couldn't he be killed by his nephew?" Looking at Zhang Xu who was about to cry in front of him, Zhou Ke knew that he must be thinking wrongly.

"Senior, if that's the case, then my sister and the others must be scapegoats! It must be that Kumaji Bone River took advantage of the opportunity he created to eliminate dissidents! But he failed in the end!" Zhang Xu calmed down his emotions, thought for a moment, and then spoke with certainty.

"I think so too, so you better keep a close eye on him during this period of time!" Zhou Ke instructed.

"Senior, don't worry. I will find out if he reveals even the slightest flaw!" Zhang Xu said in a firm tone.

"Good, very spirited! But let me add one more thing, no matter there are flaws or not, he must be an undercover agent sent by the rebels to infiltrate our place!" Zhou Ke warned meaningfully.

Although the gambler's ability is excellent, Zhou Ke feels it is safer to make preparations for both scenarios.

After all, people like Kumaji Kumagawa who work hard for the empire and really deal with anti-Japanese elements. If you can't kill them with one stick, there will definitely be trouble for the three branches in the future!

"Understood! Even if there is no flaw, I will create one for him!" Zhang Xu promised solemnly.

.......

A few days later, outside the Yokohama Restaurant near the Manchuria Railway Office in the jurisdiction of the Shanghai Third Branch.

"Wang Tiezhu! You still said that you didn't go to my house yesterday when I was not at home! My neighbor Ahua told me everything!" A black-faced man dressed as a rickshaw driver was holding a man with glasses and wearing a mandarin jacket and refused to let go.

"What if I go? You get up early and go to bed late every day and can't stay at home! I'm going to talk to my sister-in-law and help her relieve her mood!" The man with glasses said as he struggled to break free from the driver's pull.

"You bastard, I treated you as my brother!" After hearing what the man with glasses said, the black-faced man actually burst into tears in public.

"Do you think of me as a brother? You are clearly greedy for my body! My sister-in-law told me that you climb over the wall to visit Ah Hua every night! Don't think I don't know that Ah Hua is actually a man even though he usually wears women's clothes!"

While struggling to take off his glasses, he started to curse at the crying driver. The two of them were talking about each other's faults, and soon the street was filled with people watching.

"Murakami, open the window quickly so I can listen too! The crowd downstairs is too noisy and I can hardly hear anything!" Kumaji Gukawa was ordering his men while eating on the second floor of the restaurant.

Soon, the window opened, and the voices of the two people downstairs became clearer. Amid the discussions of the onlookers, the two seemed to be arguing more and more vigorously.

Soon, the two sides entered into an intense phase of exposing each other's explosive secrets. The gossips they talked about were bigger and bigger, and in the end they even went back to their great-grandfather's generation.

But the more this happened, the more people liked to listen to it, including Kumaji Kumagawa, who was considered half an expert on China. He and his followers were just going to have a simple meal, but they didn't expect to have some melons to eat.

"Dong dong!"

Just as Kumaji Bone River was listening with great interest, someone knocked on the door of the private room.

"Sir, our boss asked me to give you a plate of our new specialty pastries!" The speaker was a waiter who was recently hired by the restaurant.

The follower, who was not very alert to begin with, walked over and opened the door after hearing this somewhat familiar voice.

"Give me the food and you can leave!" The attendant took the tray of pastries and prepared to send the waiter away.

"Sir, our pastries this time are different from usual!" the waiter said mysteriously.

"Oh? How is it different?" Kumaji Bone River, who was eating melon, asked the waiter.

"Gentlemen, today's pastries are filled with auspicious lots that my boss got from Jing'an Temple! However, due to limited quantity, we can only give one to each table. Please try them, and no matter what lot you get, it is a token of our restaurant's love!" After the waiter said this, he said goodbye and left.

"That's interesting! I'm not going to eat it anyway, so bring it here and let me have a look. I'm not in a hurry to leave."

Kumaji Guchuan also became interested. While looking for the lucky lottery ticket in the pastries, he listened with great interest to the endless gossip downstairs.

....

In a newly opened photo studio on the second floor of a shop opposite Yokohama Restaurant.

"Have you taken all the pictures?" the gambler asked the man who was operating the camera beside him.

"Boss, don't worry about me. I've taken all the photos!" Old Chen, who was operating the camera, said confidently.

"That's good! Ah Wei, you have the most wanted posters on you among us. After they leave, go there to have a meal and set up the dead mailbox with the waiter. After that, cooperate with Lao Chen to take two photos." The gambler looked at another subordinate wearing sunglasses and instructed.
