Chapter 1545 Kawada Case
"Arrange a doctor to treat his injuries." Dong Zuo Tuanci glanced at the distraught Qi Huanyuan and said lightly.
"Hay."
After taking the confession he had just obtained, Dong Zuo Danci left the interrogation room, went back to the office to change into casual clothes, and then rode his bicycle out of the gendarmerie.
About half an hour later, Toza Danji appeared at Asai Kanbei's house.
"Mr. Asai, this is Qi Huanyuan's confession." Toza Danji handed the confession to Asai Kanbei and said.
"Yoshi." Asai Kanbei carefully read the confession, "Their target is indeed not Hangzhou, but Shanghai."
"According to the intelligence we have, the only ones known to the Shanghai Military Control Commission are Xiao Mian's Shanghai Special Intelligence Group and Chen Gongshu's Shanghai District." Dong Zuo Tuanci pondered and said, "Logically speaking, the operational capabilities of the Shanghai Military Control Commission are sufficient to launch a general-scale operation. Why did they need to transfer personnel from Zhejiang this time?"
"This can only mean one thing," said Asai Kanbei, "The scale of the KMT's operation in Shanghai this time is very large. They are going to do something big."
"The ticket is for the 'Xilin' ship. Unfortunately, Qi Huanyuan confessed too late. The ship has already arrived in Shanghai. Otherwise, we would have caught him in the trap." Dong Zuo Tuanci said.
"In Shanghai, there is Xiao Mian's Shanghai Special Intelligence Group, and Chen Gongshu's Shanghai Division. Sheng Shuyu, who led the team to Shanghai this time from Zhejiang, is also a capable general of the Military Control Commission." Asai Kanbei pondered and said, "These three people together are extremely dangerous."
"I will call Shanghai right now and report this matter immediately." Asai Kanbei glanced at Toza Danji and said, "You can also report the situation to Colonel Ishikura in two hours and send a warning to Shanghai through Colonel Ishikura. Of course, it would be best if you could strive to be assigned to Shanghai to assist Shanghai in handling this matter."
"Okay." Dong Zuo Danci nodded.
Asai Kanbei was not a member of the Special High Police. Strictly speaking, Asai Kanbei was a pawn placed by Commander Toshihiko Okada in his early years. After Commander Okada's death, Asai Kanbei's relationships were not transferred to the Special High Police in Hangzhou, but were secretly taken over by Shanghai.
It was also because of Asai Kanbei's relationship that he was taken over by Shanghai. As a spy left in the Special High Section in Hangzhou by Commander Araki, he received a secret mission and secretly contacted Asai Kanbei, becoming a secret partner.
Following Araki Harima's secret order, the two men cooperated well, and relying on the intelligence provided by Asai Kanbei, Toza Danji also made many military achievements in the Hangzhou Special High Section and won the trust of the section chief, Colonel Ishikura.
……
"There is one more thing. The Military Control Commission Hangzhou Station Special Operations Team has selected two people to join this operation. Their names are Du Ziyin and Liu Yangji." Asai Kanbei opened the drawer and handed a piece of paper to Toza Danci. "Here are the information of these two people."
Dong Zuo Danci took the paper and looked down:
Du Ziyin was five feet one inch tall, thin, with a scar on the base of his right hand, and was good at using flying knives.
Liu Yangji is five feet two inches tall, has a sturdy build, and has good fighting skills.
"That's great." Dong Zuo Danci said happily, "We have information about these two people, although it can only be said to be general, but the characteristics of Du Ziyin's scar are a clue."
"There is one more thing. Qi Huanyuan confessed to several military personnel in Hangzhou Station." Dong Zuo Tuanci said, "Among them, Liu Haichao is a pseudonym. This person is Ding Wenzheng, the deputy station chief of Hangzhou Station. This person is hiding in Shaoji Sauce Store near Nanxing Bridge. Should we start to arrest him?"
"Shaoji Sauce Garden Store is just a transportation station at Hangzhou Station. Ding Wenzheng is not hiding here, but he sometimes goes to the Sauce Garden Store." Asai Kanbei said, "I already know this location."
He thought about it and said, "As for the other people mentioned in the confession, arrest them immediately. Don't touch the Shao Ji Sauce Shop for now."
"I understand." Toza Danci nodded, stood up and said, "Without further delay, I will go back to see Colonel Kurata and start the arrest operation."
……
After Toza Danji left, Asai Kanbei also changed his clothes, put on a mask, and quietly left home.
He went to a telegraph office three blocks away from his house.
"Call." Asai Kanbei handed a banknote through the window.
The telegraph office clerk reached out to take the banknote without even looking up, "Draw your own number."
"Please move aside." Asai Kanbei handed over another banknote.
The staff member looked up at Asai Kanbei, said nothing, took the money, grabbed a handful of melon seeds on the table, and turned to leave.
The call is about to go through.
"Who?" Wang Hengyi was awakened by the phone call and asked in a low voice.
"It's me," said Asai Kanbei. "I got some local specialties from my hometown. I asked someone to send them to you."
"Okay." Wang Hengyi said.
Asai Kanbei hung up the phone, looked around, lowered the brim of his hat, and quickly disappeared into the night.
……
It’s late at night, at the Fishing Bridge Pier.
Inside a private house.
Several people were toasting each other, it was quite lively.
At this moment, the door was violently kicked open, and a team of military police rushed in with rifles and Japanese wolfhounds.
One of them was still conscious and was about to draw a gun from his waist, but was shot dead.
The rest were pinned to the ground by the ferocious Japanese soldiers.
"Diao Hu, Fu Manyun, Zhao Zhiyi, Hao Jun." A Japanese sergeant read out a piece of paper in his hand.
The faces of the three people who were pinned to the ground by the Japanese soldiers changed drastically. The enemy actually came with a list to arrest people. Something happened!
At daybreak, Wang Hengyi rode his bicycle to Nanxingqiao Shaoji Sauce Shop, sweating profusely, and knocked hard on the door.
Soon, there was a noise from inside, and then footsteps came to the door. "Who is it?"
"It's me, Hu Laosan, here to see Boss Ding." Wang Hengyi said in a low voice.
The door opened.
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was Wang Hengyi. "Captain Wang, what happened?"
"Let's talk inside." Wang Hengyi walked in.
The waiter closed the door immediately.
"Is Boss Ding here?" Wang Hengyi asked.
"The deputy stationmaster isn't here," said the waiter. "He doesn't live here, he only comes here when he has something to do."
"What happened?" Shao Miming, the owner of the soy sauce shop, came over with a flashlight, shone it around and asked.
"Something happened." Wang Hengyi said anxiously, "General Manager Qi was captured by the Japanese."
"What?" Shao Miming was shocked, and then he looked at Wang Hengyi suspiciously, "How did Captain Wang know that General Manager Qi was in trouble?"
“Oh my!” Wang Hengyi stamped his feet anxiously when he saw that the other party didn’t believe him. “I went to ask General Manager Qi for funds yesterday, but he said he didn’t have any money. I tried to persuade him, and he said he would help me raise some money and send it to me in the evening.”
After taking a breath, Wang Hengyi continued, "I waited and waited, but Qi Huanyuan didn't come over. I thought something was wrong, so I rushed to Lingji Road in the dark, and saw that Japanese soldiers had surrounded the place."
"It's bad." Shao Miming was shocked. "General Manager Qi has the names and addresses of the brothers. We must report to Boss Ding immediately."
"Hurry up!" Wang Hengyi said anxiously, "I saw Japanese soldiers there. We don't know when General Qi will be caught. If we are slow, something bad will happen."
"Captain Wang, you go back immediately and arrange for your men to move. I'll go find Boss Ding." Shao Miming said.
"Okay." Wang Hengyi nodded, "There's no time to lose! Be careful."
Having said that, Wang Hengyi turned around without any hesitation, opened the shop door, looked around vigilantly, and disappeared into the night on his rickshaw.
"Xiao Hu, hang up a sign saying the business is closed today, pack up your things and move away. I'll go see Boss Ding right away." Shao Miming ordered.
"Yes!"
……
"It seems that our opponents are very cautious." said Asai Kanbei.
"Shao Miming is very cautious." Wang Hengyi nodded and said, "I thought he would take me to see Ding Wenzheng."
After leaving Shao Ji Soy Sauce Shop, he first went to a safe point to inform his men to retreat, and then quietly came to meet Asai Kanbei.
"What a pity." Wang Hengyi said regretfully, "If we knew where Ding Wenzheng was hiding, even if we didn't take action now, it would be even better to be able to track his whereabouts at any time."
"We need to meet less often these days," said Asai Kanbei. "Something happened at Hangzhou Station, and the lucky survivors must be in a state of panic."
"I understand." Wang Hengyi nodded.
"How's the investigation going on?" asked Asai Kanbei.
"I only saw the man's back and couldn't be sure that he was Wan Delong." Wang Hengyi said, "I haven't seen him since then."
When he was reporting to Ding Wenzhen last time, he happened to catch a glimpse of a figure leaving. This person looked very similar to Wan Delong, the former instructor of the special training class in Xiongzhen Building of the Secret Service Department. He reported the matter to Asai Kanbei, and Asai Kanbei seemed to take this situation very seriously.
"You should trust your instincts. Since you suspect this person is Wan Delong, treat him as if Wan Delong is in Hangzhou," said Asai Kanbei. "Wand Long was once the shooting instructor of the Xiongzhenlou special training class of the Lixingshe Special Service Department. You should understand what this identity means."
"I understand." Wang Hengyi nodded. "If we can capture Wan Delong and force him to surrender, the elite agents trained by Dai Chunfeng in Xiongzhen Tower will no longer be a mystery."
"Very good." Asai Kanbei nodded, "This matter is very important, you must keep it in mind."
He handed a cigarette to Wang Hengyi and said, "If you can catch Wan Delong, I will personally recommend you for the credit."
"I understand." Wang Hengyi said with a grateful look.
……
Seeing Wang Hengyi's expression and reaction, Asai Kanbei nodded with satisfaction.
Over the years, he has been secretly investigating something.
When Kawada Nagayoshi came to Hangzhou from Manchuria, he was exposed shortly afterwards, and the entire Kawada group was wiped out by the Lixingshe Secret Service.
Although the Empire later conducted a secret investigation into the matter and believed that Wen Changjian, a Red Party member who surrendered to the Empire, was actually a member of the Kuomintang and had betrayed Kawada Nagayoshi's group.
However, Asai Kanbei has always been skeptical about this.
Kawada Nagayoshi was a close aide of General Doihara. The general was very sad about Kawada Nagayoshi's death and secretly ordered him to get to the bottom of the matter to comfort the heroic spirit.
Over the years, Asai Kanbei's investigation has never made any substantial progress. Although he has established a firm foothold in the Military Control Commission's Zhejiang Station, according to the information he has, the original action order for Kawada Nagayoshi's group was issued by Xiongzhenlou, and the person who commanded the operation was Yu Ping'an, a senior leader of the Lixingshe Secret Service.
Therefore, to investigate this matter, we must start from Xiongzhen Building.
And Wan Delong, the former shooting instructor of Xiongzhenlou who was discovered by Wang Hengyi and sneaked back to Hangzhou, was very likely an insider of the incident. This naturally attracted Asai Kanbei's attention.
……
Shanghai.
Nohara Kener yawned.
"Chief, urgent message." One of his men took off his headphones and handed a telegram to Kenji Nohara.
Ken'er Nohara took the telegram, took a look at it, and recognized that it was from the mysterious "Ruler".
He folded the telegram paper, put it in his inner pocket, returned to his office, translated the telegram, and soon arrived at the door of Araki Harima's office.
"Is Captain Araki in the office?" asked Kenji Nohara.
"The captain is here." An agent on duty replied.
Nohara Kener walked up and knocked on the door.
Araki Harima opened the door, looking tired.
He is a workaholic and often lives in the office instead of going home to rest.
"Captain Araki, urgent telegram." Ken'er Nohara handed the telegram to Araki Harima and said in a low voice, "It's 'ruler'."
"Thank you for your hard work." Araki Harima took the telegram and thanked him.
After Nohara Ken'er left, Araki Harima closed the door, went back into the house, and took out the telegram to read.
His expression quickly turned serious.
After folding the telegram, Araki Harima picked up the phone and said, "This is Araki Harima. Prepare the car. I have something important to discuss with the section chief."
……
After half an hour.
"What's the matter?" Mimotomoto came into the living room, wearing a kimono and yawning. He looked at Araki Harima and asked.
"Section Chief, 'Ruler' has an urgent message." Araki Harima handed the message to Sanjiro with both hands, "The Military Control Commission seems to be making a big move."
He said with a serious expression, "Xiao Mian, Chen Gongshu, and Sheng Shuyu, these three have joined forces."
"What?" Mitsumoto Benjiro exclaimed, "Xiao Mian, Chen Gongshu, and Sheng Shuyu, these three people have joined forces, what is the Military Control Commission going to do?"
As he spoke, he looked at the telegram carefully.
"I am also shocked." Araki Harima said, "According to the intelligence we have, Xiao Mian from the Shanghai Special Intelligence Group and Chen Gongshu from the Shanghai District are actually at odds. Now not only have these two joined forces, but the Military Control Commission has also transferred personnel from Zhejiang, and Sheng Shuyu is personally leading the team to Shanghai. The Military Control Commission is about to take major action."
Mimotojiro said nothing. He calmed down from his shock and stared at the telegram.
"No, in the telegram, 'Ruler' only reported that Zhejiang Station received an order from Dai Chunfeng to dispatch capable personnel led by Sheng Shuyu to Shanghai for support, and suspected that the Military Control Commission had a large-scale operation." Sanji Benlang frowned and said, "'Ruler' did not specifically say that Xiao Mian and Chen Gongshu had joined forces in Shanghai."
He glanced at Araki Harima and asked, "How did you come to the conclusion that Xiao Mian and Chen Gongshu had joined forces?"
