Chapter 1852 Liu Xia: Cheng Qianfan is a dangerous person!
Jinan, Japanese Military Police Headquarters.
There was a newspaper on the desk of Jinan gendarmerie commander Hirohiro Fukada.
The front page of the newspaper was filled with reports that Nanjing and Xinjing would send troops to participate in the Kwantung Army's special large-scale exercise. "This trilateral exercise will be unprecedented in scale and will test the three countries' determination to jointly fight against all forces with ill intentions and safeguard national sovereignty and stability."
"Commander." Kono Akira came in and saluted Hirohiro Fukada.
"Have you read today's newspaper?" asked Hirohiro Fukada.
"I saw it." Kono Akira nodded.
Yesterday, the three parties officially signed the agreement at Zhang Mansion in Jinan, and this major news was reported in the newspapers today.
And just today, on the imperial side, Counselor Imamura Heitaro led a team back to Shanghai; on the Wang Tianhai regime side, Chu Mingyu led a team back to Nanjing; on the Manchukuo side, Rong Tieling led a team back to Xinjing.
It is worth noting that, except for the healthy people in Chu Liuyan's team in Nanjing who followed Chu Mingyu back to Nanjing, the injured people including Chu Liuyan are still staying in Jinan for treatment.
The only exception was that Chu Mingyu's secretary Cheng Qianfan left Jinan. He did not follow Chu Mingyu's team back to Nanjing, but left on the plane carrying Imperial Counselor Imura back to Shanghai.
This also made Kono Akira even more impressed with this Chinese man who knew Young Master Atsuto Kawada. This man was Chu Mingyu's secretary and was said to be quite admired by Wang Tianhai. Unexpectedly, he also had a good relationship with the young diplomat of the Imperial Foreign Ministry, Counselor Heitaro Imamura. He could definitely be said to be very good at networking.
……
"Is there any movement at the Soviet Consulate?" asked Hirohiro Fukada.
"Ever since the news came out that Counselor Imamura had arrived in Jinan and would meet with important representatives from Nanjing and Xinjing, I have arranged for people to secretly keep an eye on the Soviet Consulate," said Kono Akira.
"Sure enough, there have been some unusual movements on the Soviet side. Not only have some suspicious targets that have come into our sight moved, but we have also discovered some new situations. We infer that they are Soviet spies who are hidden very deeply." said Kono Akira.
"Dig deeper and try to seize this opportunity to wipe out the Soviet spy network in Jinan and Shandong." Fukada Hirohiro said, "At the very least, we must cut off the Soviet tentacles in Shandong."
"I understand." Kono Akira said quickly.
"How's the investigation into the bombing of the Nanjing diplomatic train going?" asked Hirohiro Fukada.
"It has been confirmed that the enemy placed the bomb on the special train and used an alarm clock as a timer to detonate the bomb," said Kono Akira. "In addition, the investigation in Hirahara County has made some progress. The Hirahara Military Police arrested several suspicious individuals at the train station and are currently interrogating them. I believe we will be able to obtain relevant confessions soon."
"We need to hurry up on this matter," said Fukada Hirohiro. "The diplomatic train was attacked in Shandong. This is a provocation to the Empire's control and public security in Shandong. We must solve the case as soon as possible and give Wang Tianhai an explanation."
"I understand, sir." Kono Akira was cheered up and said quickly.
He understood what the commander meant. What the empire needed was to obtain a result that satisfied all parties as soon as possible. As for how the result came about and whether it was true, it was no longer important, at least not at the moment.
At worst, we can just announce the official investigation results first, and then slowly investigate the truth.
"The report on the attack on Chu Liuyan's diplomatic train will be placed on your desk, Commander, tomorrow morning," said Kono Akira.
"Very good." Hirohiro Fukada glanced at Akira Kono and nodded.
Kono Akira is quite capable, but Zheng Zhi is not sensitive enough and not tactful enough. He actually needs him to remind him of such things.
……
Just at this moment, a loud bang was heard.
Hirohiro Fukada was so frightened that he staggered and quickly hid under the table.
Kono Akira also subconsciously looked for a protective shelter.
"Where did the explosion happen?" Hirohiro Fukada asked, standing up from under the table.
"It's in the direction of the Army Hospital." Kono Akira thought for a moment, his face changed, and he said.
"Take people to check the situation immediately." Hirohiro Fukada's face darkened and he gave an order to Kono Akira.
"Hai."
……
Nanjing.
Chu Mingyu and his party have just returned to Nanjing from Jinan.
Sitting in the car that came to pick him up at the airport, Chu Mingyu looked a little tired and closed his eyes to rest.
"I didn't expect that Counselor Imamura would be willing to take Secretary Cheng back to Shanghai with him," Liu Xia said. "It seems that when Counselor Imamura said that he and Secretary Cheng were close friends regardless of age, this was not just a polite remark."
"Given the disparity in status between Imamura and Chiho, there's no need for Imamura to be polite about such matters." Chu Mingyu opened his eyes and said with a smile.
"Brother Fan is indeed capable." Liu Xia said happily, "Counselor Imamura is a famous young military officer of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is not easy to catch his eye."
Then Liu Xia asked, "Secretary-General, now that Matsuoka has fallen, will this have any impact on Imamura Heitaro?"
"No." Chu Mingyu shook his head slightly. "The real backer and supporter of Imamura Heitaro is not actually Japan's Foreign Minister Matsuoka Yosuke."
"Heitaro Imamura is an outstanding diplomat who has grown rapidly under the training of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This is a qualification he is proud of. However, don't forget that Imamura has a background in the Kwantung Army, which is also very important," said Chu Mingyu.
"I understand." Liu Xia nodded thoughtfully. "Whether the Japanese will attack the Soviet Union or not, the Kwantung Army will continue to play a pivotal role in the Japanese Army for a long time. Therefore, with his Kwantung Army background, Imamura Heitaro's status in the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs will only continue to rise and he will receive more attention."
……
"The talents trained by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are quite capable and are also recognized by the military, which is rare." Chu Mingyu said solemnly, "In addition, as far as I know, not only the army, but also the Japanese navy is not averse to Imamura Heitaro."
Seeing Liu Xia's confusion, Chu Mingyu smiled slightly, "Imamura Heitaro has never made a public statement on Japan's 'Southward Advance' and 'Northward Advance' strategies. Considering his Kwantung Army background, this is enough to satisfy the Navy."
"I understand." Liu Xia nodded. "No wonder this trilateral meeting was facilitated by Imamura Heitaro. It seems that Japan values Counselor Imamura very much."
Chu Mingyu nodded slightly and said nothing more.
There was also a look of fatigue on Liu Xia's beautiful face. She looked at the familiar scenery of Nanjing city outside the car window and her eyelids began to droop.
In her heart, Liu Xia was secretly warning herself.
In other words, she is reflecting on herself.
……
Just now, she started by saying that Cheng Qianfan and Imamura Heitaro had a close relationship, but in fact she had bad intentions and wanted to drive a thorn in Chu Mingyu's heart.
However, I didn't expect that Chu Mingyu's first sentence in answer was that he didn't care or take precautions about it, but was quite happy about it.
Liu Xia immediately adjusted her attitude, or rather, she braked in time, swallowing back the words that she was about to continue to instigate, and instead spoke in line with Chu Mingyu's attitude.
It seems that Chu Mingyu's respect and trust for Cheng Qianfan is even deeper than she imagined. She will have to be more careful with her words in the future.
However, after all these things happened, Liu Xia became more wary and repulsive towards Cheng Qianfan.
This vigilance and rejection was not because Cheng Qianfan had any suspicion about her.
It was because she became more and more aware of Cheng Qianfan's abilities, and that he was actually a very smart guy.
Chu Mingyu also valued this person's ability more and more.
Having such a person around Chu Mingyu gave Liu Xia an increasing sense of crisis.
She even began to have a feeling that if her identity was exposed in the future, it must be related to this guy Cheng Qianfan.
It's nothing, this guy is just too smart.
……
Shanghai.
Imamura Heitaro looked at his student with concern, "Do you really not need to go to the hospital to recuperate for a while?"
Kentaro Miyazaki was unwilling to go to the hospital for recuperation, but insisted on returning to his home on Lafede Road to recuperate.
"Thank you for your concern, teacher." Cheng Qianfan said, "They are just superficial injuries. If you need to change the dressing or check up, just ask the doctor to come home."
"This time I can say that I have escaped death and survived a catastrophe." As he spoke, a smile appeared on his face, and he said a little embarrassedly, "After this incident, I want to spend more time with Xinhu even more now."
"Hahaha." Imamura Heitaro laughed, "It's human nature. I can understand it. I can understand it."
Heitaro Imamura was very happy about his students' attitude of valuing emotions and family affection. He was satisfied and relieved that Kentaro Miyazaki valued emotions.
It was at this time that Hojo Hidetoshi came to Imamura Heitaro.
"Counselor, urgent telegram from Jinan," said Hojo Hidetoshi.
Hojo Hidetoshi handed the telegram to Imamura Heitaro with both hands.
Heitaro Imamura took the telegram and read it carefully.
He folded the telegram paper and handed it to Hojo Hidetoshi, then looked at Miyazaki Kentaro with an extremely solemn expression.
Cheng Qianfan's heart skipped a beat, and his first reaction, almost subconsciously, was that he had made a mistake and was exposed?
However, his expression remained normal, and he asked subconsciously, "Teacher, what happened?"
"You just said that you survived a disaster this time..." said Heitaro Imamura.
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan nodded, somewhat confused.
"You're right," Imamura Heitaro said. "There's a call from Jinan saying that the KMT members in Chongqing attacked the Army Hospital and killed several members of the Nanjing delegation who were hospitalized there."
"What?" Cheng Qianfan was shocked.
This was not pretended, he was truly shocked by the news.
……
"The Military Intelligence Bureau members took advantage of the opportunity of hiring workers to sneak into the Army Hospital. Their target was the wounded members of the Nanjing Ministry of Foreign Affairs delegation who had been attacked in Pingyuan before and were now hospitalized and recuperating in the hospital." Hojo Hidetoshi said on the side.
"The military intelligence members sneaked into the ward area and were discovered by an imperial wounded soldier because of their suspicious behavior. The military intelligence members killed the wounded soldier and threw grenades into the ward." Hojo Hidetoshi said, "Many lightly wounded soldiers from the Nanjing delegation were playing cards in a ward, which directly led to heavy casualties, three deaths and two serious injuries."
"Playing cards?" Cheng Qianfan opened his mouth, a trace of fear in his eyes, "Is Feng Mincai among the dead and wounded?"
"There is indeed such a person." Hojo Hidetoshi nodded.
"Teacher is right, I really survived a disaster." Cheng Qianfan's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat and said, "Feng Mincai is on good terms with me in the visiting delegation. He likes to play cards. If I were still recuperating in Jinan Army Hospital, they would probably invite me to participate in the card game this time..."
As he spoke, the fear in his eyes grew stronger, and he shuddered with lingering fear.
"Kentaro, this just proves that you are lucky." Imamura Heitaro said, "Don't think too much, go back and have a good rest."
"Ha Yi." Cheng Qianfan said, and then couldn't help asking, "Have the military intelligence members who attacked the wounded members of the visiting group been caught?"
"Two Military Intelligence Bureau members, one was beaten to death on the spot, and the other attempted suicide but failed and was successfully captured," said Hojo Hidetoshi.
"He deserves to die!" Cheng Qianfan said with a gloomy face.
His expression was ferocious and his eyes were murderous. Heitaro Imamura had no doubt that if the Military Intelligence Bureau member was in front of Kentaro, Kentaro would personally use his sword to chop off the member's head.
"Go back and rest early." Heitaro Imamura patted his student on the shoulder.
Every time this student of mine goes on a trip, he encounters such terrifying life-and-death situations. If you say that Kentaro has bad luck, that is indeed the case. However, it can also be said that Kentaro has good luck as he has been able to turn danger into safety and survive many times.
However, it was obvious that this incident really scared Kentaro.
……
Lafayette Road.
I saw that my husband came back injured on this business trip.
This time he entered the house in a wheelchair, and Bai Ruolan's eyes quickly turned red.
"I said I've been feeling very anxious these past few days, and I knew..." Bai Ruolan took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes.
"I'm fine now. I'm back safe and sound." Cheng Qianfan said.
"You call this okay?" Bai Ruolan cried, and then she slapped herself lightly on the mouth, "Yes, yes, it's okay, it's okay."
"Little Zhima, call me daddy." Cheng Qianfan, sitting in a wheelchair, took his son in and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then, he laughed happily when he saw his son kiss him on his own initiative.
"Xiaobao, brother came back in a hurry this time and didn't have time to buy you a gift." After teasing Xiaozhima for a while, Cheng Qianfan handed Xiaozhima to Bai Ruolan and said to Xiaobao.
"Xiaobao doesn't want any gifts. I just want you, Brother Fan, to be fine." Xiaobao looked at Cheng Qianfan sitting in a wheelchair and couldn't hold back any longer, so he burst into tears.
"It's okay, it's okay." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
……
With the help of Bai Ruolan and the maid, Cheng Qianfan came to the study on the second floor.
"You have to come to the study instead of going to the bedroom to have a good rest." Bai Ruolan complained.
"I came back suddenly, and some things that were arranged before have to be changed now. Let me ask about the situation." Cheng Qianfan said.
"If I don't find out today, tomorrow will only make me busier." He lay on the Simmons sofa bed in the study and said, "Call Haozi and ask him to come see me."
"Okay, I'll call right away." Bai Ruolan had no choice but to say this when she saw that she couldn't persuade her husband.
