Chapter 448 Suicide Attack
Chapter 448 Suicide Attack
After hearing Iwai Sadatoshi's report, Li Xianshu's face changed instantly. Without even saying goodbye to Chen Yang, Li Xianshu and Iwai Sadatoshi hurried out of the ward.
Wu Sibao and Li Qun also hung their heads, like eggplants hit by frost.
Chen Yang looked at Wu Sibao and Li Qun and asked, "Director Li, what's going on?"
Li Qun glanced at Fujiwara Shizuka beside Chen Yang, and said, "There is something wrong with Liu Bingzhong."
"We were all deceived by him. He was just pretending to surrender."
Chen Yang frowned slightly and asked, "Is there something wrong with him? What's the problem? Didn't Nan Tian arrange for someone to keep a close eye on him? Could it be that he didn't find out?"
Li Qun sighed and pointed at the wound on his body and said, "Section Chief Nan Tian arranged for someone to follow Liu Bingzhong closely, but this Liu Bingzhong is really too sinister."
"The explosives provided by Wang Manyun, codenamed Yueya, were not placed at the venue at all. Instead, they were tied to Liu Bingzhong's body."
"Liu Bingzhong launched a suicide attack with himself."
Li Qun talked for a long time, and Chen Yang finally understood what happened.
After Nan Tian Yunzi took over Liu Bingzhong's case, Liu Bingzhong cooperated very well.
Not only did he name several of his subordinates, he also revealed all the details of the Ghost Operation.
In order to catch all the members involved in the Ghost Operation in one fell swoop, Yunko Minamida decided to play the long game and catch the big fish.
She first sent people to monitor the locations of several subordinates that Liu Bingzhong had revealed, and made careful deployment.
Then, he reported to the Secret Service and mobilized a squadron, with part of its personnel protecting Yoshimoto Sadaichi as he left Shanghai and headed for Changsha.
The other part assisted No. 76 in setting up control around the city hall.
At 9:30 in the morning, the city hall held a routine meeting.
Halfway through the meeting, Liu Bingzhong suddenly detonated the bomb tied to his body.
The explosion caused more than ten casualties, including the mayor's secretary Qian Yongren, director of the Cotton Industry Supervision Bureau Su Xiangren, Shanghai Highway Director Yang Jianyi, Shanghai Water Conservancy Bureau Director Fang Bo, Shanghai Industrial and Agricultural Experimental Office Deputy Director Cao Kangyun and other officials.
Looking at the dusty appearance of Li Qun and Wu Sibao, Chen Yang could fully imagine how chaotic the city hall was now.
"After such a big incident, you still have the mood to come to me."
Chen Yang pointed at the two of them with his right hand and covered his stomach with his left hand and said angrily: "Didn't I tell you to be careful and don't cause trouble for me."
"Director Li, did you listen? Now that such a big mistake has happened, Nantian will definitely try to shift the blame to No. 76."
"It's even possible that they will say that it was because of my poor interrogation that so many city hall officials suffered misfortune."
"you you..."
"Commander Chen, don't get excited and don't hurt yourself." Seeing Chen Yang trembling with anger, Wu Sibao hurriedly reminded him in a low voice.
Chen Yang waved his hand, took a breath and said, "Director Li, you must return to the scene immediately and take charge of the aftermath. Don't make any more mistakes."
Li Qun nodded quickly and said, "Sir, don't worry. I will never cause you any trouble. You take a rest. I will leave now."
Li Qun and Wu Sibao bowed and left the ward. Chen Yang covered his stomach and said to Fujiwara Shizuka, "Hanako, help me call a doctor."
"I need to do a major checkup. I'll take as many days as I can. It will take at least three to five days. I don't want to be discharged from the hospital."
Shanghai Expeditionary Force Headquarters.
Sporadic gunfire continued to ring out.
In the secret service department office, Nakanishi Gong's face turned extremely pale as he looked at Minamida Yunko in front of him.
"Section Chief Nantian, do you know how passive the situation your intelligence error has put us in?"
"A small military unit actually dared to attack the headquarters of the expeditionary forces."
"Where do they put the dignity of the imperial soldiers?"
Nan Tian Yunzi bowed and said, "I'm sorry, Director Nakanishi, I admit that my misjudgment of Liu Bingzhong is my responsibility."
"But I think it is still necessary for Chief of Staff Yoshimoto to provide protection."
"The purpose of this military intelligence team is to disrupt our sight. If you withdraw the team protecting Chief of Staff Yoshimoto at this time, I am worried that the military intelligence team will take advantage of the opportunity."
Zhong Xigong thought: "What Section Chief Nan Tian means is that they are playing a trick of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west."
"The suicide bombing and the attack on the expeditionary force headquarters were all intended to target Chief of Staff Yoshimoto?"
Nan Tian Yunzi nodded and said, "Director Nakanishi, I have fought with the Military Control Commission more than once or twice."
"This is a common trick of the Military Control Commission. They want to make us fall into their trap at a very low cost."
"If they really wanted to attack the Expeditionary Force Headquarters, why would they organize so few people?"
"Besides, don't you think the way these people attack is weird?"
"They filled the explosive packs with lime and nails in order to create chaos."
“So, I firmly believe that my judgment is correct.”
Zhong Xigong's expression eased slightly and he said, "I can't find any reason to refute you for now. Well, let's stay the same in the face of change."
As soon as Zhong Xigong finished speaking, a man rushed in from outside. He walked quickly to Nan Tian Yunzi and said a few words.
"What? Impossible..." Minamida Yunko's face turned pale in an instant.
"Section Chief Minamida, what happened?" Nakanishi Gong felt something was wrong when he saw the change in Minamida Yunko's expression.
Nan Tian Yunzi said: "Director Nakanishi, I have something to deal with, so I'll take my leave now."
After saying this, he bowed, and without waiting for Zhong Xigong to speak, he hurried out of the office with the visitor.
After leaving the door, Nantian Yunzi asked anxiously: "Akagi-kun, how did you know that the information was missing?"
Akagi Tsuyoshi said: "Section Chief, I don't know. The people who stayed behind in the Secret Service Office were Ikeda-kun and Shen Shuyi and his men."
"Ikeda-kun came to report that when the expeditionary army headquarters was attacked, several people rushed in and threw several bombs."
"Afterwards, the office was turned upside down. They seemed to be looking for something..."
"The secret agent's office only has those top-secret materials..."
Nan Tian Yunzi's heart skipped a beat. Looking for top-secret information? Could it be that their purpose of attacking the expeditionary army headquarters was to destroy the information?
Those materials were all her capital. If anything unexpected happened, she could only die to atone for her sin.
No, for safety reasons, these materials cannot be left in the office.
There were faint sounds of gunfire from inside the expeditionary force headquarters building.
Nantian Yunzi didn't care about that and ran all the way back to the special office.
The office door was open, and it was in chaos inside with signs of vandalism everywhere.
Nantian Yunzi said to Akagi Tsuyoshi, "You stand guard at the door."
