Chapter 1461 Araki Falls into the Trap
Hearing what Kentaro Miyazaki said and seeing his friend frowning and worried about him, Araki Harima's heart sank.
Yes, Miyazaki-kun is right.
This is also the reason why he hates Hirai Shinji and even feels somewhat dissatisfied with the section chief.
The information was provided by Jie Chi. Logically speaking, it should have been his job to investigate the matter and arrest the new secretary of the Military Control Commission's Shanghai District.
The section chief arranged for Shinji Hirai to investigate the matter. Although he tried his best to stop Shinji Hirai from making excessive demands to snatch the 'ruler', but...
"The 'ruler' is in your hands. Although you have kept the 'ruler' now, the initiative of this case is in the hands of Hirai Shinji. He needs information, so you can go and order the 'ruler'..." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Impossible." Araki Harima shook his head. "'Ruler' is an ace agent who has successfully infiltrated the Military Intelligence Bureau for many years. His safety is more important than anything else. I will not agree, let alone order 'Ruler' to take the risk of gathering information."
'for many years'!
Cheng Qianfan captured the most crucial word in Araki Harima's words.
His face remained calm, still with an attitude of defending his friend, and he continued, "Okay, Araki-kun can withstand the pressure and put the safety of the 'ruler' first, but——"
Cheng Qianfan shook his head and said, "What if the 'Ruler' took the initiative to send a telegram to report the progress of this matter?"
He said to Araki Harima, "That is to say, by chance, the 'ruler' has new information, so it sent you a telegram. So, Araki-kun, what will you do after receiving the telegram?"
"Of course I report to the section chief," said Araki Harima.
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan sneered, "So, do you think the section chief will arrange for you to continue to follow up, or give the information to Hirai Shinji, who will conduct subsequent investigations, arrests, and make meritorious contributions..."
Investigate, arrest, and make achievements!
Araki Harima's expression became increasingly gloomy. Every word that Miyazaki Kentaro spoke was like a knife cutting into Araki Harima's heart. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
Why?
"Araki-kun, you are confused." Cheng Qianfan was very angry and heartbroken, "You thought you successfully stopped Hirai Shinji from snatching the 'ruler', but in fact, although the 'ruler' seems to be still in your hands, it is serving Hirai Shinji."
Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "Mr. Araki, you are assisting Hirai Shinji in investigating this case."
"No!" He shook his head and snorted, "To be frank, you are working under Hirai Shinji this time. If things go wrong, this guy might boss you around."
"Stop talking!" Araki Harima's face turned pale, and he punched the back of the passenger seat, "I finally understand."
"What do you understand?" Cheng Qianfan frowned and said.
"That guy Hirai Shinji called me by my name today. I was very angry. Although I am not his direct superior, but..." Araki Harima was furious.
"What? How dare that villain be so rude?" Cheng Qianfan was extremely angry. "If I had known that this guy would dare to humiliate you like this, I would have beaten him to death with my cane today."
Araki Harima's face was extremely gloomy, and his chest was heaving with anger. He was angry and surprised that Hirai Shinji dared to call him by his name, which was so arrogant and rude to the extreme. Now after listening to his friend's analysis, he finally understood that Hirai Shinji treated him as a subordinate!
"The section chief is unfair!" Araki Harima said gloomily.
The reason why Hirai Shinji dared to be so arrogant and rude was that the section chief gave Hirai Shinji the power and trust. Therefore, the more Araki Harima thought about it, the more dissatisfied he became with Mitsujiro.
"Mr. Araki, please be careful with your words." Cheng Qianfan advised.
"Isn't it?" Araki Harima became more and more angry as he thought about it. "The section chief has been doing things more and more unfairly recently. Apart from other things, the section chief indulged Chihohara Tsukasa so much. Now one of Chihohara Tsukasa's subordinates dares to be rude to you, and even wants to blame you for the death of His Majesty Fushimi-no-miya. Aren't you angry?"
"Of course I'm angry." Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly, "I'm very angry. I will deal with a villain like Hirai Shinji sooner or later."
"With the section chief condoning Chikitahara Tsukasa, you have dealt with Hirai Shinji, and there will still be Sato Shinji and Nakata Shinji." Araki Harima said with a sneer.
Cheng Qianfan stopped talking. His expression kept changing. He gritted his teeth and remained silent, which showed his greatest anger and frustration.
"What? Miyazaki-kun isn't talking anymore?" Araki Harima said.
"What should I say? What else can I say?" Cheng Qianfan suddenly got angry and roared at his friend. As he spoke, he punched the backrest of the cab. "I am loyal to the section chief and my sincerity is as good as gold. I... that's the section chief!"
Araki Harima looked at his friend who had lost his composure and wanted to say something else, but in the end he just sighed.
Yes, just as Miyazaki-kun said, that’s the section chief!
Silence, the silence of two people, the anger of two people, the frustration of two people.
"In short, we must not let Hirai Shinji continue to succeed!" Cheng Qianfan said gritting his teeth.
His eyes seemed to be spitting fire as he continued, "Didn't the section chief trust Hirai Shinji and arrange for him to check the case of the new secretary of the Military Control Commission's Shanghai District? We must not let this villain rely on this incident to gain merit and power."
Cheng Qianfan handed a cigarette to Araki Harima. He also bit the cigarette in his mouth, lit it up, took a deep puff, and continued, "Araki-kun, this case, this credit should be yours, and it must be yours!"
"You're right!" Araki Harima gritted his teeth, "The credit is mine."
His face was extremely gloomy. "Even if the credit is not mine in the end, it definitely cannot be Hirai Shinji's!"
Cheng Qianfan's heart moved. The effect of his kind words was immediate. Araki Harima, a Japanese soldier who always put "imperial interests above all else", hated Hirai Shinji so much and was very disappointed with Mitsujiro that he actually said such words.
"You are more professional than me in investigating the rebels." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "However, I will stand firmly by your side and do my best to help you."
He said to Araki Harima, "Araki-kun, just tell me how I can help you."
"Let's take Hirai Shinji first and try to catch the guy in the Military Control Commission's Shanghai branch as soon as possible." Araki Harima said, looking at his friend, "Miyazaki-kun, I think the new secretary is most likely hiding in the French Concession. The French Concession is your territory. I need you to help me find him."
"No problem, I will do my best to help you find him." Cheng Qianfan nodded, then frowned, "The problem now is that I know nothing about this guy's situation. I can't just look for a needle in a haystack like a headless fly."
"Miyazaki-kun, although you are not as professional as me, you have a quick mind," said Araki Harima. "The Chinese have an old saying, 'Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang.' I will tell you what I know, and you can help me analyze it."
"Okay." Cheng Qianfan nodded seriously.
He was so happy that his heart was filled with joy. All his words were worth it. Araki-kun finally fell into his trap.
……
"You mean, this secretary might be from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang branches of the Military Control Commission?" Cheng Qianfan asked with a frown.
"No." Araki Harima shook his head. "What I mean is that this person may have some connection with the Military Control Commission in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but he is probably not from Jiangsu or Zhejiang."
"Mr. Araki, I am confused by what you said." Cheng Qianfan said with a wry smile.
"The sources of information for 'Ruler' are basically mainly from Jiangsu and Zhejiang," said Araki Harima.
"I understand. What you mean is that 'Ruler' has information about the new secretary transferred to the Shanghai District. This information itself comes from the Military Control Commission's 'Jiangsu and Zhejiang' system." Cheng Qianfan pondered and said, "So you said that this person has a connection with 'Jiangsu and Zhejiang'."
"Yes." Araki Harima nodded, "At the same time, 'Ruler' only knows about this person, but has no further information about him, which means that this person is very likely not directly from Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
"That's it." Cheng Qianfan nodded.
He had a strong urge in his heart to use words to pinpoint the exact location where the "ruler" was lurking.
However, reason told Cheng Qianfan that he could not do that. Although Araki Harima was blinded by anger now and might be tricked into talking, there was a huge hidden danger. Once Araki Harima regained his sanity, this would instead arouse some suspicion from Araki Harima.
Araki Harima is an experienced Japanese spy, and Cheng Qianfan will never let down his guard against this "good friend".
"It has some connection with the Military Control Commission in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but it is very likely not directly from Jiangsu and Zhejiang." Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly, "As expected, Mr. Araki, the most resourceful man in the Special High Section, has such a complicated and confusing logic. It is difficult for me to capture these details from a telegram."
"Your work is more about activities under the identity of Cheng Qianfan. It is understandable that you don't have much contact and understanding of these things." Araki Harima said with a relaxed expression.
Whenever he gets this kind of professional pride from his smart friend, he feels quite pleased and in a good mood.
"It's just that this is still just a very vague concept," Cheng Qianfan said, "It's still very difficult to find someone in the French Concession based on this alone."
As he spoke, he sighed, "It would be better if the information provided by 'Ruler' could have a clearer direction."
Araki Harima heard this and did not say anything, but fell into silence and thought.
Cheng Qianfan just sighed subconsciously, and he also fell into silence.
Finally, Araki Harima gritted his teeth and put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray. "I will call the 'ruler' and ask him to find a way to further verify the situation of that guy."
"Araki-kun!" Cheng Qianfan exclaimed, "Didn't you say that we should try to prevent the 'ruler' from moving more, so as not to bring safety risks to the 'ruler'?"
After saying that, Cheng Qianfan sighed again and scratched his hair. "This is the problem. We know almost nothing about the new secretary of the Shanghai District. It is indeed only the 'Ruler' who is most likely to obtain more intelligence."
Araki Harima agreed and nodded, "So, if we want to catch the clerk before that guy Hirai Shinji does, we can only rely on the information from the 'ruler'."
"This..." Cheng Qianfan nodded first, then shook his head, looking torn. He finally gritted his teeth and said, "Araki-kun, you must remind 'Ruler' to be careful."
He said with a serious expression, "Nothing can happen to the 'ruler'!"
"I know the importance of this." said Araki Harima.
His expression was sinister, "I will never allow that villain Hirai Shinji to be proud in front of me!"
"Okay, if you have further information, notify me immediately. I will arrange for people to be ready to search the French Concession at any time." Cheng Qianfan also gritted his teeth, "Hirai villain, we must not let him continue to be arrogant."
As he spoke, a cruel smile appeared on his face. "I want to see how shocked and frustrated that villain Hirai Shinji will be when Araki-kun successfully finds the new secretary of the Shanghai District and brings him before the section chief."
"It's not just Hirai Shinji." Araki Harima snorted coldly, "I want to show the section chief who is the one who is really capable of doing things and who is the lucky villain!"
Cheng Qianfan nodded heavily.
Obviously, Araki Harima's biggest grievance is actually his dissatisfaction with Mitsumoto Jiro.
……
Araki Harima left.
Li Hao returned to the driver's seat and started the car. The car, protected by bodyguard vehicles in front and behind, drove on the streets of Shanghai at night.
Haozi turned his head and saw Brother Fan was silent and serious. "Brother Fan, what happened?"
"A new clerk has been transferred to the Shanghai district." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Cheng Xuyuan has been transferred?" Li Hao said in surprise, and then his face changed, "Brother Fan, did you get this information from the Japanese?"
Cheng Qianfan nodded, "It seems that you also realize the seriousness of this matter."
Li Hao nodded. A new secretary was transferred to the Shanghai District of the Military Control Commission, and Xiao Mian, the director of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Department, was unaware of it. He actually got the information from Japan.
The information behind this is really horrifying!
"Do the Japanese have spies among us?" Li Hao asked.
"Yes, there is a spy, and he is very hidden." Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly and said, "Haozi, this is a big fish."
Then he shook his head again, "No, it's a poisonous snake hiding within us!"
Cheng Qianfan took a cigarette out of the cigarette box, but he didn't smoke it. Instead, he held it in his hand and played with it.
He was sorting out the information he had extracted from Araki Harima.
This high-level Japanese spy hidden within the Military Control Commission can be confirmed to have come from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Military Control Commission. This is the most critical information he now has.
