"That's how it all went."

Standing in front of Akagi Kinyuki, Kenji Takagi was still indignant: "Those dirty patrols have all been bought, and they don't want to do anything for us at all." ”

"Calm down, Takagi-kun."

Akagi seems to have been mentally prepared for all these situations: "We have just arrived in Shanghai to take over this position, and we are not very familiar with everything. And Meng Shaoyuan and the military commander have been operating here for a long time, and their advantages are of course more obvious than ours. Don't rush, take your time. ”

In his design, the most urgent thing at present is to stand firm, and then slowly observe, and replace all the detectives who have been bought by the military commander, or sympathize with the military commander.

In fact, he was in such a hurry to act and arrest him, which was actually a kind of temptation.

That Inspector Li and the patrol of the Chengdu Road Arrest House are undoubtedly supporters of the military command.

The first ones to be replaced are them.

The phone rings on the desk.

Kenji Takagi picked up the phone:

“…… What the? You repeat? I got it, and I reported it to the Commissioner immediately. ”

"What's the matter, so panicked?" Akagi asked.

Kenji Takagi looked incredulous: "Meng ...... Meng Shao turned out. ”

Akagi Qinyuki's face also changed.

Meng Shao turned out?

This great enemy of the Japanese intelligence agency actually came here?

"Your Excellency, what should I do?" Kenji Takagi whispered, "Why don't you take advantage of him to come here and take him down?" ”

"Take him? Where is this? Police Department of the Ministry of Public Concession. Akagi has not forgotten this: "A person has come here, on what basis should we arrest him?" He must have been fully prepared when he came here. We used to always lose to him, just because it was too reckless, let him in and see what his purpose was! ”

Therefore, Akagi Qinzhi saw the "legendary" Meng Shaoyuan.

The Meng Shaoyuan who called for wind and rain in the public concession!

"Hello, Mr. Meng." In front of anyone, Akagi is always polite: "I am Akagi Kinyuki, I always hear your name, and today I finally got to see you, fortunately, fortunately." ”

"Director Akagi speaks Chinese very well." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "I heard that Director Chimu has been promoted, and I have always maintained a good relationship with the Police Department of the Ministry of Industry, so I came here today to congratulate me." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Meng, thank you very much." Akagi said politely: "I have heard for a long time that Mr. Meng is a legend in the Shanghai Public Concession, whether it is the previous Director Daniel or the later Director Sinclair, they are full of praise for you. I've just taken up my post and need your help in every way. ”

Meng Shaoyuan nodded: "Of course, as long as there is a place for me, just ask." Ah, according to the habit of us Chinese, the first visit to the door cannot be empty-handed. I brought a small gift to Director Akagi, hoping to smile. ”

This small gift was a check for $5,000.

This is also Meng Shaoyuan's usual method, he needs to know whether this person can be bought.

"Five thousand dollars? You're really generous. Akagi glanced at the check: "In the past, when Sinclair took office, did you do the same?" ”

After only a glance, the man didn't have much interest in money.

Meng Shaoyuan probably had a bottom in his heart: "Yes, it's the same." But Mr. Director, you can rest assured, I don't want to buy you, I just want to be friends with you. ”

"The way Chinese make friends is really special."

"It's really special, but it's also the most practical."

"Mr. Meng, I appreciate your honesty, so I think I should be honest too." Akagi said slowly: "Before, with the full support of the police department, you did whatever you wanted in the Shanghai Public Concession, and your agents could run rampant, and it was always Japanese agents who suffered.

However, it was always a public concession, and there was always a concession with its own laws. As the new Commissioner of Police, I will not allow this to happen again, and I will carry out a comprehensive and thorough rectification to restore order in the concession and completely erase all those messy things from here. ”

"Really?"

Meng Shaoyuan took out a cigarette, took one, flicked it, put it to his mouth, lit it, took a puff, and puffed out the smoke: "I remember that when Director Sinclair first took office, he said the same thing. Director Akagi, I have to remind you that this is Shanghai, not your Japan. There are a lot of things that I think we have to discuss. ”

"There's no need." Akagi didn't think about it, and flatly refused: "In your words, this is Shanghai, it's a public concession, right or wrong, I have the final say, it's not you!" Your good days are over from now on. Your country's army has failed on the battlefield, and you will continue to suffer defeat in the concession! ”

Meng Shaoyuan smiled.

Everyone who has just sat in this position is always so heroic and ambitious to make a career.

It's still Daniel before, at least he only has money in his eyes.

Negotiate with such a person, refreshingly and directly.

I miss Daniel so much.

"I don't think our conversation was particularly pleasant." Meng Shaoyuan flicked off the cigarette ash and bounced it directly to the floor: "I have already thought very clearly about the difficulties we will face after you take over as the Commissioner of Police. But I tried my best to reverse this passive situation.

To be sure, I'm going to have a hard time for some time to come, along with my men. But what about Japanese agents? Ah, there is no denying that there are only two of us here, and their lives will not be comfortable. It's going to fall into a vicious circle that you can't solve, Mr. Akagi. ”

"I'll try to figure it out." Akagi was still smiling: "For example, I will gradually remove those detectives and replace them with people I think can be trusted." Compress your living space little by little. ”

This is not an easy person to deal with.

He tells you what he wants to do.

The problem is that as long as the Japanese army still occupies Shanghai, and Akagi is still in the position of police commissioner, Meng Shaoyuan will not be able to find a good solution.

At least, Akagi kinyuki thinks that the other party has no way at all.

Meng Shaoyuan thought about it seriously and nodded seriously: "If this plan is implemented smoothly, you will succeed, about half a year, at most a year, we will have no room to survive in the concession." ”

"Therefore, Shanghai, not your Shanghai, is mine." There was finally a hint of arrogance in Akagi's voice: "Or more accurately, the Great Japanese Empire!" ”

Meng Shaoyuan threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and stepped on it: "I'm sorry, I'm a rude person, I always throw cigarette butts everywhere." ”

"It's okay, I won't take such a small thing to heart."

Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "It seems that we have no room for negotiation, I originally thought that we would become partners." Farewell, Mr. Akagi. ”

"Farewell, I'm too busy to send you off...... Ah, by the way, Mr. Meng, please take your check with you. ”

Meng Shaoyuan put away the check and was about to leave, when he suddenly asked, "Mr. Akagi, do you have thirty yen?" ”

Akagi was stunned: "Yes." ”

"Can you lend it to me?"

Well?

Borrow money?

Akagi was full of doubts, he took out thirty yen and put it on the table: "Of course you can, who would refuse this little request made by Mr. Meng?" But what makes me curious, what do you want for thirty yen? ”

"Look, I'm only carrying checks, not cash."

Meng Shaoyuan collected thirty yen seriously: "This money may be used for running away." Maybe it's buying bullets and assassinating you. ”

"Mr. Meng, you're really good at joking."

"Yes, goodbye, Mr. Commissioner."

"Goodbye, Mr. Meng."

Meng Shaoyuan left.

However, Akagi kinyuki fell into deep thought.

What exactly does Meng Shaoyuan want to do?

He came here, and when he couldn't buy himself, he actually asked himself if he borrowed thirty yen?

"Lord Akagi." Kenji Takagi pushed the door and walked in: "What was Meng Shao doing here?" ”

"He gave me five thousand dollars to try to buy me." Akagi said in a daze, "I refused, and when he left, he asked for thirty yen." ”

"What? Borrowed thirty yen? ”

"Yes, he said to use the money to buy bullets and assassinate me."

"Yaga!" Kenji Takagi roared, "This person is too rampant, find someone to find a way to kill him." Also, Lord Akagi, in case the dog jumps off the wall, I suggest you add a bodyguard. ”

"There is no need for this, what kind of uproar will it cause to kill the police commissioner of a public concession? The entire Ministry of Industry and Bureau will be shaken, and Meng Shaoyuan does not have such guts. ”

This confidence is still there in Akagi: "As for killing him? Takagi-kun, think about it carefully, if possible, our colleagues would have done this a long time ago. ”

Speaking of this, he was silent for a while: "Meng Shaoyuan is really very interesting, he is very bold, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, he dared to do this because he found out what you wanted, and we didn't dare to arrest him publicly in the police department." So he was able to come with a swagger and leave with a swagger, without worrying about anything at all.

I'm sure he also knows he can't really buy me, and he's just coming today to test me. Takagi-kun, if you change your identity, you are him, and there is no hope of buying me, and you know that your organization will fall into a passive and dangerous situation, what measures will you take? ”

Kenji Takagi thought for a long time and shook his head in confusion.

Akagi kinyuki also didn't know, although he got his wish to sit in the position of police commissioner, but he found that the headache that caused him had just begun.

Meng Shaoyuan will definitely not give up, he will have the next move.

It's just that no one will guess what this move is!
