Chapter 529: Chinese New Year's Eve Street
"Your Excellency, it's my honor to meet you."
Koichi Hahara was very polite: "I'm really sorry, it's too rude to disturb you while you're eating." β
"It's okay, Hahara-kun." Matsumoto Renji said lightly: "In Nanjing, you helped my daughter, I haven't had a chance to thank you yet, since you're here, let's eat together." β
"What's so embarrassing about that?"
"I said yes."
"Well, you're welcome."
What did he come to do?
Matsuko's face was calm, but her heart suddenly became nervous.
Shao Yuanjun and himself took advantage of him and successfully sent himself back to Shanghai.
Did he find out something about himself and expose himself to his father?
"Miss Mako, did you have a good ride back from Nanjing to Shanghai?" Hikaru Hawara asked as soon as he sat down.
Matsuko replied politely: "It's too bothering you, the people you sent are very attentive, if it weren't for you and them, I really don't know how to go back to Shanghai." β
"Miss Matsuko is safe, so I'll be relieved." Koichi Hahara then said: "In Nanjing, many enemy forces are still active, and it is very unpeaceful there. In particular, the enemy's agents are always trying to sabotage our management of Nanjing, and they always want to bring out some illegal information through various means. β
He got it...... He got it......
Makoko kept saying this in her heart...... But why didn't he say it straightforwardly, but went around in such a circle?
Maybe it's because he doesn't have enough evidence in his hands?
Matsumoto Renji frowned: "Habara-kun, it seems that there is something in your words?" β
"No, no, Your Excellency." Habara Koichi hurriedly said: "I don't dare to say anything vaguely, it is already a great honor for me to be able to meet His Excellency Osa today." It's just that Miss Makiko ran to Nanjing alone, yes, alone...... It's too dangerous, and it might even be used by enemy agents, and if such a terrible thing really happens, it may be a kind of damage to the reputation of His Excellency Osa. β
Matsumoto Hitotsugu squinted at him.
"I was able to come to Shanghai today to meet His Excellency Dazuo because there will be a reception to be held in Shanghai and Nanjing at the same time tomorrow, and I will be in charge of the contact with Shanghai on behalf of Nanjing." Habara Koichi said respectfully, "If it weren't for this opportunity, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to meet His Excellency Osa." Alright, I won't delay the dinner between His Excellency Osa and Miss Masako, and I will take my leave. β
Matsumoto nodded and did not speak.
"Miss Mako, take care." Hikaru Habara bowed deeply to Hitotsugu Matsumoto and Makiko together.
After he left, Matsumoto Hitotsugu remained silent and didn't say a word.
"Father, what's wrong with you?" Makiko asked cautiously.
"This person is not simple."
Matsumoto Renji finally spoke: "Mako, you didn't go to Nanjing alone, someone took you there, right?" I know that my daughter is actually a very stubborn person, and once she decides something, she will never change it. What my daughter doesn't want to say, no matter how hard I try, she won't say it.
Makoko, Koichi Habara came today to tell me that you did something you shouldn't have done in Nanjing. He knew, but he didn't tell anyone, he was keeping it a secret. But why should he keep it a secret? For I am your father. He is smart and knows that not revealing the truth is not only a protection for you, but also for himself. β
"Father, he's talking nonsense." Matsuko raised her voice.
"No, he's telling the truth." A smile appeared on Matsumoto Renji's face: "Look at my real coffin, when I lie, I still tug on my clothes tightly as when I was a child." Do you think that even if you do do something, your father will be willing to blame you? Even if it's a big thing, I'll cover it up for you. β
At this moment, Masako almost burst into tears, and she almost told her father the whole truth.
I can't say it, I can't say it, because it's too big.
"Daddy doesn't want to know the truth of the matter." Matsumoto Rentsugu continued: "But, Mako, you must not do anything like this in the future, you must know that Dad is just a big Zuo, and there are many officials who can govern me, if some bad things are passed on, even Dad will not be able to protect you." β
"I see, father."
What a naΓ―ve child, in a word, it is equivalent to admitting that all the facts are true.
Matsumoto Hitotsugu didn't want to ask anything, he only knew that as long as he was alive, he would protect his dear daughter no matter what......
β¦β¦
The sound of firecrackers outside was already "crackling".
Everyone's faces flushed.
Alcohol and the heat in the house.
At 10 o'clock, Cai Xuefei had already said goodbye.
For her, it was already late before she had slept at this time.
Meng Shaoyuan suddenly stood up: "Which of you wants to see what Shanghai's Chinese New Year's Eve is like?" β
"Yes, yes." Yamashita was the first to call out by Riai.
She's been drinking a lot of alcohol today, and she looks a little drunk.
Wu Jingyi also drank a lot of wine, but still remained calm and sober: "Director Meng, just a few of us, in case of any danger, let's call a few more people to ...... together."
"How can there be so much danger?" Meng Shaoyuan looked at it but didn't care at all: "This is Shanghai, China's Shanghai, I am a Chinese, I even have to look forward and backward when I go out, and it is a joke!" Go, go, everybody! By the way, take a few packets of food, and a few bottles of wine for me, and I'm going to see a few people. β
β¦β¦
Outside, fire trees and silver flowers.
Firecrackers kept going off, and the fireworks kept splendid.
The children ran around excitedly, clapping and screaming happily as they watched the fireworks.
There is no war.
There was no gunfire.
All this has been temporarily away from all Chinese.
Foreigners living nearby also walked to the balcony and the door of their homes in twos and threes to watch the happiest festival of the year in China.
"It's beautiful." "It's our Christmas different," Hawes exclaimed. At Christmas, when the whole family gets together, that's the greatest warmth. But here, it's even more lively and joyful. β
"Any idea why? Because of people. Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "People will always forget their sorrow and pain for a while in such a festival, there are many people in China, and in such a special festival, happiness will continue quickly." β
He led the group and walked slowly.
In front, there are several low-rise houses, which look out of place with the surrounding bungalows.
It is part of the Shanghai Commercial Electric Light Company, which is mainly responsible for the surrounding street lighting, and there is always an electric light inspector living here. It is directly under the management of the auditor.
The electric light inspector in this area, named Li Ajiu, is an outsider, and has been working here for almost a year. Alone, I don't have a wife or children or anything. Usually he is very honest, and if the people around him ask him to do a favor or something, he is also very willing to do it.
Meng Shaoyuan took his people to the front of the house and knocked on the door hard.
The lights inside were still on, and it was obvious that Li Ajiu hadn't slept yet, but after a while, a voice came out: "Who, it's so late." β
"It's me!"
This way of calling the door is strange, but it is also effective. It's me? Who are you? But in most cases, the owner will still open the door.
Sure enough, the door opened, and Li Ajiu looked at the group of people outside the door suspiciously: "Who are you?" β
"Come and see you." Meng Shaoyuan broke in by himself.
Li Ajiu really hadn't slept yet, and on a small table, there was half a fish, a green vegetable, and half a bowl of wine.
"It's too hard, isn't it?" Meng Shaoyuan took two packets of vegetables and a bottle of wine and put them on the table: "Come, I'll add food to you." β
"Sir, I don't know you." Li Ajiu was confused.
"You don't know me, but I know you." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "You are forty years old this year, right, Fukushima Hongyi?" β
A "Fukushima Hongyi" made "Li Ajiu" change his complexion greatly.
"Don't be afraid, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, I don't kill people." Meng Shaoyuan still smiled and said: "Besides, you are just an outside agent, who is responsible for monitoring this area, and it will be no good for me to kill you." I, Meng Shaoyuan, won't kill a nameless person like you! β
Meng Shaoyuan! This person turned out to be Meng Shaoyuan!
Hiroki Fukushima only felt that he was cold.
This person is actually a Japanese special? Even Wu Jingyi didn't grasp this situation.
"I've been working hard here for a year, and you said your boss wouldn't come to comfort you." Meng Shaoyuan actually patted him on the shoulder: "It's no wonder that you haven't made any contributions in the past year, and you haven't passed on any useful information." No wonder your boss won't want to see you. For the New Year, I have to add vegetables to you.
Tomorrow, report to your superiors the information I have sent to you, and I will know exactly how many points of contact you have in the Public Concession, and who is in charge of where. Also, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, which is a good day. I heard that your consulate will hold a reception, and I will remove your contact points one by one on this day! β
Hiroki Fukushima had never seen such an arrogant person who told the enemy his plan clearly.
Wu Jingyi suddenly understood why Meng Shaoyuan did this at this moment.
He will do a big thing tomorrow at the Great Light Cinema, and he must minimize all the dangers and make his plan go smoothly. And the best way to make the Japanese special organization a mess and be overwhelmed is:
Meng Shao was going to kill someone!
The Chinese and Japanese secret agencies have just ceased war, and during the negotiation process, Meng Shaoyuan has never shown up, which will definitely make the other side worried.
Now, he suddenly said openly that he was going to kill people.
It is completely conceivable that even if the Japanese cannot determine the authenticity or falsity, they will definitely be in a mess.
A person's name can cause such a big shock in an instant, probably only this Young Master Meng can do it, right?
