Chapter 1450: Red Party Special Branch
January 27th.
The nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
It is auspicious for getting married, meeting relatives and friends, moving, breaking ground, praying, installing beds, taking in livestock, offering sacrifices, repairing, consecrating, raising beams, erecting pillars, and fasting and offering sacrifices.
Avoid traveling.
On the deck of the Japanese cruise ship "Aka no Maru", Wang Tianhai, dressed in a suit and tie, and a brand new bow tie, waved his hat and said goodbye to the "citizens" who were seeing him off.
The farewell people on the shore waved flags, held high banners such as "Peaceful Nation Building", "Follow Mr. Wang's Peaceful Line", and "Sino-Japanese Friendship", and shouted slogans to see Wang Tianhai and others off.
"Sir, this is what the people want." Chu Mingyu said happily as he stood beside Wang Tianhai.
"Yes." Wang Tianhai nodded slightly. "The hope of China lies with us. Although there will be some progress, the road ahead is long. We must always be vigilant and live up to the earnest wishes of hundreds of millions of people."
"Brother Wang is right." Chu Mingyu nodded, "There is still a long way to go."
……
"Louder."
"Didn't you eat?"
Gu Zhou, a clerk from the Civil Affairs Department of Qingdao Municipal Hall, shouted loudly amid the farewell crowd.
"I didn't eat."
"When will the three catties of flour and two catties of rice be delivered?"
"Shout louder, the flour and rice will be ready soon," Gu Zhou shouted.
"Long live Mr. Wang!" someone shouted excitedly.
"Who shouted?"
"Shut up, don't shout like that." Gu Zhou shouted hurriedly.
"Yes, old drunkard, even if you shout 'Your Highness', I won't give you an extra two ounces of rice."
There was a burst of laughter among the crowd who were seeing them off.
"The Emperor is in Xinjing." someone shouted.
"Egg! That's a puppet of the Japanese!"
"It's as if Wang Tianhai doesn't listen to the Japanese."
"Who said that?"
"Shut up!" Gu Zhou cursed angrily, sweating profusely.
A bunch of troublemakers!
At this moment, a Japanese military police snatched the flag from the hand of a person who was seeing them off and kicked him to the ground.
This immediately caused a panic.
"Madam, Madam, what's wrong?" Gu Zhou hurried forward to negotiate.
"What is this?" the gendarmerie officer asked Gu Zhou, pointing at the flag in his hand.
This is a flag of the National Government with a blue sky, a white sun and a red earth.
"Mr. Wang's new regime is the same, the same..." Gu Zhou hurriedly explained, and then his voice became weaker and weaker.
Wang Tianhai's new regime had decided to continue using the National Government's flag of the Blue Sky, White Sun and Red Earth. However, the Japanese were still fighting in Chongqing, and such flags were also erected on the battlefields there. It was no wonder that the Japanese soldiers reacted so strongly.
"Put them away, put away all the flags of the Blue Sky and White Sun." Gu Zhou shouted hurriedly.
……
"What's wrong?" Wang Tianhai on the deck noticed the commotion on the shore.
"Maybe there are people from Chongqing mixed in the crowd." Chen Chunpu said on the side.
"Chongqing is despicable." Wang Tianhai said angrily, then sighed, "I hope innocent people will not be implicated."
The sea breeze is cold even in the coldest months of winter. Today the wind is particularly strong. Seeing the cruise ship moving away from the dock, Wang Tianhai and others quickly scattered back to the cabin like birds and beasts.
Wang Tianhai immediately saw Cheng Qianfan turning the wheels of his wheelchair with his hands and spinning around.
"How could this kid be so unlucky?" Wang Tianhai couldn't help laughing. "He was shot in Nanjing, and now he was bombed again."
"Qian Fan was fine originally, but he risked his life to protect Kawada Atsuto." Chu Mingyu said, "It's fortunate that Qian Fan was brave, otherwise, if the person from the Kawada family had also been in trouble, things would have been even more troublesome."
"Yes, a very brave young man." Wang Tianhai nodded slightly and waved to Cheng Qianfan.
Cheng Qianfan showed a look of joy on his face and quickly moved the wheelchair with both hands, but it was not fast enough after all. There was a threshold in front of him, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
Wang Tianhai couldn't help laughing and waved his hands. A guard came forward and pushed the wheelchair over.
"I heard from the Secretary-General that you bravely protected Atsuto Kawada. Aren't you afraid?" Wang Tianhai asked.
"Scared." Cheng Qianfan said, "Now that I think about it, I'm still extremely scared."
Seeing Wang Tianhai's inquiring eyes, he showed an embarrassed expression and explained, "Qianfan is stupid. He only thinks that being on good terms with Kawada Atsuto is a personal matter. The Secretary-General criticized me. He pointed out that my being on good terms with Kawada Atsuto is also to enhance friendship with friendly countries and to contribute to Mr.'s peace and national salvation."
Cheng Qianfan said with a serious expression, "Qianfan was thinking at the time that if something happened to Kawada Atsuto, it would be terrible and would cause trouble for Mr.
As he spoke, he scratched his head and said shyly, "I was so excited at the time that I didn't care about so many things. Now I think about it, I am really scared."
"What a pure heart, what a pure heart." Wang Tianhai was very happy. He pointed at Cheng Qianfan and said to Chu Mingyu and Chen Chunpu, "Mr. Gu has a good grandson."
Cheng Qianfan was very happy and said quickly, "When my grandfather was alive, he often said that Mr. Wang was the one who carried on the legacy of the master. If he knew about this and saw that the country was in decline, he would be smiling in his grave."
"Mr. Gu has made great contributions to the country." Wang Tianhai said gently, "You are not bad either, not bad."
……
"He is happy." Ma Tianxun watched this scene from a distance, and said with hatred, "If it weren't for Cheng Qianfan's matter, would we have ended up like this?"
Ma Tianxun had a bruised face and nose. Although he did not suffer too much torture from the Japanese, he was severely beaten.
"Director, will that matter..." Wan Haiyang also said.
"It shouldn't be." Li Cuiqun shook his head. "According to the information obtained by Director Chen, Kunihiro Kurata, who is in charge of the safety of Fushimi Palace Shunsuke and others in the Military Police, doesn't know his true identity either."
Wan Haiyang nodded. Since the Japanese didn't know the identity of Junichiro Horie, it was naturally impossible for Cheng Qianfan to know.
"Come to think of it, Cheng Qianfan also reminded me before." Li Cuiqun sighed, "He said he suspected that Horie Junichiro's identity was more important than Kawada Atsuto, but I didn't think too deeply about it."
"The main thing is that this book was meant to give credit to the Japanese. Who could have thought of that?" Wan Haiyang said.
"Is there any progress on the matter?" Li Cuiqun asked immediately after hearing Wan Haiyang say this.
"I don't have any clues for now." Wan Haiyang frowned and said, "I questioned Ke Zhijiang, and he was also very surprised. Ke Zhijiang was also confused and puzzled about how Shen Xi and his group could make such a big fuss. He said it was too weird."
"Yeah, it's too weird." Li Cuiqun shook his head. "Let's not talk about whether Shen Xi and the others have the ability to attack like this. How did they know that the Japanese were going to capture them and then successfully set an ambush?"
"Director, do you still suspect that someone tipped off Shen Xi and the others?" Ma Tianxun asked thoughtfully.
"We cannot rule out this possibility, otherwise it won't make sense," said Li Cuiqun.
He suffered such a big setback in Qingdao this time, and developed a great hatred for the Japanese, especially the Japanese in Qingdao. In addition, he suffered heavy casualties, including the loss of a general like Lu Changxin. How could he not be filled with hatred in his heart?
"But, those people at Qingdao Station are under control. I have already checked them. It is impossible for them to contact the outside world." Wan Haiyang said, "The most important thing is that Ke Zhijiang said that even if he was not caught by us, he would not be able to successfully accomplish such a big thing even if he brought Shen Xi and others with him."
"Ke Zhijiang said that even he didn't know that we had handed over the task of hunting down the remnants of Qingdao Station to the Japanese, so there was no information leak." Wan Haiyang continued, "He thought Shen Xi and his men were like dogs that had lost their homes. Logically, they would have been too busy hiding at that time to have the energy to plan such a big event. Moreover, it was impossible for Shen Xi and his men to know such accurate information."
"Yes, it's very foggy." Li Cuiqun snorted coldly and said.
……
"It's very foggy." Saijo Umezumi said with a frown.
He said to Qian Beiyuan Si, "The Empire sent people to question Li Cuiqun, and he firmly denied the possibility of intelligence leaking from the agent headquarters."
"Could it be that Li Cuiqun lied?" Chihohara Tsukasa asked, "It is impossible for Li Cuiqun to admit it. If he admits it, it means that he must admit a greater responsibility for the death of His Majesty Fushimi-no-miya."
"The people inside the Empire's secret service headquarters also indirectly corroborated Li Cuiqun's statement." Sajo Umezumi said, "Li Cuiqun was still quite wary of the Qingdao station personnel who had just surrendered. They had no chance to go out and contact Shen Xi and others."
"Could it be that there are Chongqing elements among the original team of the Special Agent Headquarters?" asked Qian Beiyuan Si.
"It's unlikely." Saejo Umezumi shook his head. "If the people Li Cuiqun brought to Qingdao had a traitor from Chongqing, and this traitor could contact Qingdao Station, then Ke Zhijiang's Qingdao Station would not have been destroyed."
Chihohara Tsukasa was silent. He had to admit that what Umezumi Sakami said was logically tenable.
After a long silence, Chihohara Tsukasa suddenly said, "Sakami-kun, I think someone is suspicious."
"You still insist on doubting Miyazaki Kentaro?" Saegi Umezu gave Chihohara a sidelong glance, "Do you have any evidence?"
Qian Beiyuanji shook his head. If he really had any evidence, he would have ordered the arrest and interrogation long ago.
"I know that some of the things left by Hiroo Kikube and Kotsubasa Naito are in your hands. You must have been influenced by them, so you have always been prejudiced against Kentaro Miyazaki." said Umezumi Saegi.
Hearing the word 'prejudice', Chihohara frowned, realizing that Umezu Sakami did not support his opinion.
"Qianbei-kun." Saejo Umezumi said seriously, "You have to understand that Cheng Qianfan can be suspicious, but that is Miyazaki Kentaro, we are Japanese, an imperial agent."
Seeing that Chihohara was about to speak, Umezu Sae waved his hand and said, "This time, Miyazaki Kentaro risked his life to save Kawada Atsuto. Just for this reason, you can't continue to pester Miyazaki Kentaro. In addition, the most important thing is-"
He looked at Chihohara Tsukasa and said with a serious expression, "According to the information I got from the Qingdao Military Police, Miyazaki Kentaro's real identity should be a retainer of the Kawada family."
"It is absolutely not allowed to doubt the ministers of the aristocratic family with a long history in the empire." Saeki Umezumi said in a deep voice.
"How can he be considered a retainer of the Kawada family? He is just a slave at most." Chikitara Tsukasa snorted coldly.
"You can't mess with the servants of the Kawada family!" said Umezumi Saeki coldly.
He felt that Chihohara Tsukasa was possessed, just like Naito Kotsubasa and Kikube Hiroo.
……
"Well, the Empire has its own relevant departments to investigate this matter." Saejo Umezumi said, "You interrogated Liao Hua, did you gain anything?"
Qian Beiyuan Si shook his head. "Even though we used all kinds of torture instruments on this man, Liao Hua said nothing and refused to answer any questions."
"This actually shows that there is a problem." Saegi Umezumi said, "Liao Hua must have known Xu Qili, no, it was Xu Baihe, and he mistook Xu Qili for Xu Baihe."
"I have already made a request to Qingdao to bring Liao Hua back to Shanghai for further interrogation," said Qian Beiyuan Si.
"Do you have any new ideas?" asked Umezumi Saeki.
"Kwantung Province has always suspected that Xu Baihe has been active in Shanghai, so it is not ruled out that Liao Hua also has experience in Shanghai." Qian Beiyuan Si said, "Of course, based on the information we have now, Liao Hua has no connection with Shanghai."
"But..." Qian Beiyuan Si shook his head, "I have a hunch that Shanghai is very important to break through the fog."
"Commander Ikeuchi sent a secret telegram," said Saeki Umezumi. "Counselor Imamura Heitaro of the Imperial Consulate in Shanghai once served in Kwantung State. He has always been upset about the spy and secret leak incidents in Kwantung State. He once arranged for Miyazaki Kentaro to use Cheng Qianfan's identity and power in the police station to secretly investigate Xu Baihe's activities in Shanghai."
"Oh?" Chihohara Si became interested, "Did you gain anything?"
"It's nothing." Saejo Umezumi shook his head. "Miyazaki Kentaro conducted a secret investigation, but found no trace of Xu Baihe's activities in Shanghai."
"This is not surprising. If there is something wrong with Miyazaki Kentaro himself..." Chihohara Tsukasa sneered.
"Enough!" Saejo Umezu was furious. He scolded Chihoharaji, "Chiho-kun, please put away your stubborn and unreasonable prejudice!"
"Let's not talk about the fact that Miyazaki Kentaro is an imperial agent and a member of the Kawada family. There is no way he could have any problems and he is not allowed to be suspected." He said angrily, "Just to say one thing, Xu Baihe highly suspects that he is a member of the Red Party's Manchuria Special Branch. And judging from Miyazaki Kentaro's resume, it is impossible for him to have any intersection with Xu Baihe."
"If I remember correctly, before joining the Shanghai Special High Section, Kentaro Miyazaki had been active in China as a wandering poet, collecting intelligence for the Empire." Chihohara Tsukasa said without flinching, "His activities covered a wide range. In addition, Kentaro Miyazaki's teacher, Professor Hiroyuki Taniguchi, had been active in Peking and Tianjin for a long time, and Kentaro Miyazaki also often went to Peking and Tianjin."
Chihohara Tsukasa said coldly, "It cannot be ruled out that Miyazaki Kentaro has been to Qingdao, Kanto Province and Manchuria."
"Even if Kentaro Miyazaki has been to those places, what does that prove?" said Umezu Saeki, frowning.
Qian Beiyuan Si was silent. Yes, what could this prove?
"After bringing Liao Hua to Shanghai, I intend to arrange a meeting between Liao Hua and Miyazaki Kentaro." Chikitara Tsukasa suddenly said.
"And there's Bu Daquan." Qian Beiyuan Si said, "Bring this guy back to Shanghai as well."
Saeki Umezumi shook his head and frowned, but ultimately did not raise any objections.
Chihohara Tsukasa thought for a moment, then his expression changed slightly. He said to Sakami Umezumi, "Miyazaki Kentaro once worked with Setouchi Kawa. Setouchi Kawa was from the Red Party's Shanghai Special Branch, and Xu Baihe was from the Manchuria Special Branch. They were both from the Red Party's Special Branch. It is possible that there is some connection between them. So, between Setouchi Kawa and Xu Baihe, no, between Liu Bo and Xu Baihe, is there any secret that we don't know about?"
Sakami Umezumi was stunned. He didn't expect that Chihohara Tsukasa's thinking was so unconventional that he actually linked Setouchi Kawa, the traitor who was regarded as a great shame by the Shanghai Special High Section, with Xu Baihe.
He had to admit that there was some truth to Qian Beiyuan Si's analysis.
