Meng Shaoyuan's head was the size of eight.

At least he couldn't think of a perfect solution.

And at this moment, inside the Shanghai Japanese special organ, it has become a pot of porridge.

The Japanese army had already won a suppressive victory in the Shanghai battlefield, and although their cowhide of "destroying China in three months" was completely blown away, at least, the victory in the Battle of Shanghai was no longer a problem.

However, on the agent front, their performance can only be described as "clumsy".

Defeated again and again, he was played by the military commanders in applause.

Just one Meng Shaoyuan turned the public concession upside down, and people turned it upside down.

It seems that in front of this person, all the agents' previous cognitions have become useless.

Vance Bai's rescue was equivalent to another slap in the face of Rite.

If such things happen again and again, the blow to the morale of the military will be too great.

"We can't let our incompetence drag down the progress of the Imperial Holy War!"

This is an order given by the Japanese leadership.

Under such circumstances, Akagi was ordered to temporarily take over the Shanghai Japanese special organs.

Akagi kinyuki, whose real name is Akagi kinzo, is a low-key person, and when he was transferred to China, he changed his name to "kinyuki", which means "hoping that foreigners will think of himself as an easily approachable person".

Not only is he fluent in English, but he also speaks great Chinese.

When he arrived in Shanghai, he temporarily stayed at the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai, where he was in fact the Japanese side's choice for the post of chief of police of the Shanghai Public Concession Bureau.

The Ministry of Industry and Bureau also made a final decision in the position of police commissioner, and before that, Akagi received an order to make every effort to rectify the Shanghai secret service and reverse the passive situation of the Japanese special service in Shanghai.

Actually, it's easy to say, but it's hard to realize.

Akagi's advantage is that he is low-key and seems to have no political enemies, but his disadvantage is also low-key, which makes his prestige completely insufficient.

In Shanghai, the Japanese Army, Navy, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, right-wing politicians, zaibatsu groups, and civil organizations ...... There are all kinds of secret services.

Unless there is a truly prestigious strongman, how easy is it to put them together?

Akagi is more regarded as a representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' secret services.

He himself knew this, so when he received this order, he quickly invited the heads of the various secret services to an emergency meeting.

But obviously, his face is still not big enough.

Only a few people attended the meeting, including Yoshio Manda, the new head of the Japanese Army's secret service, Kei Tanaka, chairman of the "Blood Alliance," and Kojiro Kawamoto.

The navy, for its part, bluntly told Akagi that the war to conquer China had reached a critical moment, and that their intelligence officers were working hard and did not have time to attend the meeting.

The annoyance in Akagi's heart cannot be described in words.

But in front of others, he had to act as if nothing was happening.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have worked hard in China." As soon as Akagi opened his mouth, he showed a particularly humble attitude: "Before, I couldn't fight side by side with you, which is my biggest regret, and I hope this time, I can get everyone's attention." ”

"Alright, Akagi-kun." When Yoshio Manta was in Japan before, he knew Akagi Qinyuki, so he gave him some face:

"The intelligence work in Shanghai did not go very well, and we were ordered to find an opportunity to deal with Vance Bai, but he still escaped, which was our negligence."

Of course, Akagi couldn't show any dissatisfaction: "In intelligence work, there will always be mistakes, but what I want to understand is how we let Vance run away under such close surveillance?" ”

Yoshio Manta looked at Kojiro Kawamoto.

Kojiro Kawamoto then told him what had happened: "That's probably how it happened...... However, we found Ji Yunqing, who flatly denied that he had anything to do with this matter, and we also called the agent in charge of surveillance at the time there, identified the so-called 'Qin Gongzi' on the spot, and found that it was not a person who saw them. ”

"Oh? So why are they pretending to be Ji Yunqing's people? Akagi asked with interest.

"Ji Yunqing is friendly with Japan." Kojiro Kawamoto immediately replied, "He is also the one we are trying to fight for." Therefore, the military commander should have deliberately tried to destroy the relationship between us and him. Of course, this technique is easy to identify, so there is another possibility...... The other party is just joking around. ”

"What did you say?" Akagi kinyuki suspected that he had misheard: "Kawamoto-kun, you said the other party was joking?" With such a well-thought-out rescue plan, you say the other party's agents are playing around there? ”

Kojiro Kawamoto didn't know how to explain it.

Well planned?

In hindsight, many of them are flawed, and it can even be said that they were improvised ideas.

The military commander knew that if he fraudulently used the name of "Qin Gongzi", it would not be long before it would be discovered, but the other party still used it.

Why?

Because he just wants to block you and Ji Yunqing.

In psychology, this is called "child behavior".

Adults ask children to do something, and loudly reprimand that it must be done, but the child is rebellious, knowing that if he does not do what adults say, he will be scolded, but he just does it.

In adults, "childlike behavior" is also common.

But what if it happens to an agent?

There is something humiliating about it.

I came under the banner of Ji Yunqing, you know in your hearts that it is impossible, but in order to make sure that it is just in case, you have to investigate.

I searched and searched, but I didn't find anything.

And I can take advantage of this time to do something else, and you can't do anything with me.

Facing Akagi Kinyuki's questioning, Kojiro Kawamoto sorted out his thoughts: "Let's put it this way, the other party has no fear, he is ready to lead us by the nose and even lead us to his trap." In this way, even if we now know that Ji Yunqing has nothing to do with this incident, however, do we still have some doubts about him in our hearts? ”

A few people thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was really the case.

A person who has been ruined by others, even if he has sufficient evidence to prove his innocence, still cannot stop the gossip.

"Kawamoto-kun, I know you studied psychology in the United States, this is probably the so-called psychology, right?" Akagi Qinyuki groaned and asked, "Is there such a powerful figure in the military command?" ”

"Yes, there are too many, and their commander, Dai Li, is an extremely dangerous figure." Kojiro Kawamoto smiled bitterly and said:

"In addition, there is another person who is just as powerful...... If I'm not mistaken, the whole plan to rescue Vance White was planned by this man. ”

"Who?"

"Meng Shaoyuan!"

"Meng Shaoyuan?"

"Yes, an extremely dangerous figure." Speaking of this name, Kawamoto Kojiro's tone became solemn: "Many of our failures are related to this person, he is the number one fierce general under Dai Li, and he can even be regarded as a public enemy of Japanese agents!" ”

Public enemy of Japanese agents, Meng Shaoyuan!

This is the first time someone has come up with this name.

"Public Enemy of Japanese Secret Service?" Akagi Jinyuki smiled: "It's a bit alarmist, no matter how great a person's power is, his role is limited. Well, putting this person aside for the time being, let's imagine whether Vance Bai will continue to stay in Shanghai or secretly transfer after being rescued? ”

"Transfer!" This time, it was Yoshio Wantian who answered: "We have also gone through an urgent analysis, and if Wan Sibai wants to leave Shanghai, there are only two roads, water and land......"

The analysis of the Japanese secret service is exactly the same as that of Meng Shaoyuan's previous analysis.

And the measures they are going to take are basically not much different.

"Gentlemen, your analysis is very good." Akagi raised his voice slightly: "Although Vance Bai was rescued, it doesn't mean that this matter ends here, he must not be allowed to leave Shanghai, he has too much information, once he writes a book, it will be a scandal for the empire." Kawamoto-kun, you are personally responsible for this! ”

"Yes."

Although Kojiro Kawamoto promised, he didn't have any bottom in his heart.

After all, in his opinion, the person responsible for rescuing Wan Sibai was basically determined to be Meng Shaoyuan, and in the face of such an opponent, he was not sure of success at all.

What kind of method would Meng Shaoyuan use to send Vance Bai out?

Is it the same as you think, by water or by land?

"Tanaka-kun."

"In!"

Tanaka Kei, the president of the "Blood Alliance", hurriedly stood up.

After so many years in Shanghai, the existence of the Blood Alliance is a little embarrassing.

This organization is very old, and it has been in Shanghai for a long time, but its contribution to Japan is nothing more than some commercially insignificant information.

No one has ever paid attention to them.

So this time one of the Akagi relatives called, Tanaka Kei was the first to respond.

"Tanaka-kun, the Blood Alliance will cooperate with Kawamoto-kun." Akagi quickly gave an order: "Mobilize all your people and closely monitor the several contact points of the military commander, two adults, and two children, it is very difficult for them to hide without a trace." ”

"Yes, Lord Akagi." Tanaka's answer was very resounding: "I will personally direct them." ”

Akagi nodded with satisfaction, and then he turned his gaze to Kawamoto Kojiro: "Kawamoto-kun, you mentioned that Meng Shaoyuan just now, do you think there is a way to arrange for me to meet with him once?" To be honest, I'm a little curious about this guy. ”

"Yes, and I think Meng Shaoyuan will definitely come." Kojiro Kawamoto agreed almost without thinking: "However, I personally suggest, Your Excellency Akagi, that you don't take a lot of agents and try to capture him. ”

"Why?"

"Because you'll find that it's definitely not a good choice!"
