Chapter 1670 A Painting

"It's very difficult to arrange an interview with Dean Chen." Cheng Qianfan said in surprise, "Your Literary Research magazine is amazing."

The Director Chen mentioned by Xiu Yuman is Wang Tianhai's "housekeeper" Chen Chunpu.

President Chen is the President of the Legislative Yuan, Chen Nanhai, who is also a member of the Wang Puppet Central Committee and the Minister of the Political Training Department of the Puppet Military Commission.

At the end of last month, the Wang Puppet Government "returned to" Nanjing, and Chen Nanhai, as the pseudo-legislative speaker, made a radio speech saying:

"The new regime led by Mr. Wang and me will save the torn country and the people who are suffering."

"Not only can we build a new and prosperous Republic of China, but China and Japan can also have permanent peace."

It can be said that the entire broadcast was an utmost effort to whitewash and distort the situation in order to glorify the traitorous Wang regime.

Afterwards, Wang Tianhai and Chen Nanhai, the big traitors of the Wang family, were subjected to overwhelming criticism from the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians across the country.

Some newspapers denounced Chen Nanhai as the second greatest traitor in the history of the Chinese nation, second only to Wang.

Because Chen Nanhai was criticized so harshly, he has recently been very reluctant to be interviewed by newspapers and once said, "Reporters are all malicious."

……

"President Zhang made an appointment with President Chen through the relationship with Mr. Iwai," said Xiu Yuman.

"That's it." Cheng Qianfan nodded.

The president of "Literary Research", the traitorous writer Zhang Xuefeng, had close relations with the Japanese side. He actively participated in the "Rise of Asia Nation Movement Headquarters" of Iwai Mansion. Zhang Xuefeng was even one of its earliest backbones and served as the chairman of the Japanese Rise of Asia Movement Cultural Committee.

He began to wonder, Iwai Eiichi helped arrange for the "Literary Research" magazine to interview Chen Nanhai, does this mean that the Iwai Mansion had secret contact and communication with Chen Nanhai, or is Chen Nanhai involved in the Japanese "Rise of Asia and Founding of a Nation" movement?

……

"Brother Fan, there are military police blocking the road ahead. Let's wait here." Haozi tilted his head slightly and said to Cheng Qianfan.

"Then let's wait." Cheng Qianfan said.

The place where the car was stopped was about a hundred meters away from the Asia Hotel. From a distance, you could see military police on curfew in front of the entrance of the Asia Hotel.

Cheng Qianfan's heart moved.

He saw from afar that Sakamoto Ryouno bent down and bowed to see the group off, then turned around and went back to the hotel.

The group got into several cars and left under the escort of three-wheeled trucks led by the Japanese military police.

The vehicle was then released.

Haozi parked the car steadily in front of the entrance of Asia Hotel.

"Brother Fan, we're here."

"Qian Fan, thank you so much for this time." Xiu Yuman thanked him and said, "I'll treat you when we get back to Shanghai."

"No need to treat me, I'll just ask my master's wife to make me some wontons." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, then he took out his wallet, took out a stack of money and handed it to Xiu Yuman.

"I'm lending it to you." Xiu Yuman took it without hesitation.

Then she opened the door and got out of the car, only to see Cheng Qianfan also got out.

"The small cakes at the Asia Hotel are pretty good. I'll treat you." Xiu Yuman said with a smile, waving the banknotes in her hand.

"No thanks, spend less. I'm a poor man." Cheng Qianfan said jokingly, pointing to the main entrance of the hotel, "My friend lives here too. Now that I'm here, I can't just leave."

'friend?'

The identity of the person who can be called a friend of Cheng Qianfan can be imagined.

After hearing what Cheng Qianfan said, Xiu Yuman kept it in mind.

……

Watching Xiu Yuman enter the room, Cheng Qianfan returned to the north staircase and went up to the third floor.

"Miyazaki-kun?" Sakamoto Ryano opened the door and was surprised to see that it was Miyazaki Kentaro. "Why are you here today?"

He and Kentaro Miyazaki have an appointment to have dinner together the day after tomorrow.

"I have a friend living in Asia, I'm sending her back." Cheng Qianfan said. He picked up the orange on the table, peeled the orange slowly, broke off a segment and put it in his mouth, and asked casually, "Just now the military police imposed martial law, and my car was blocked outside. I saw you seeing someone off at the door from a distance. Who are you?"

Sakamoto Yosano bowed to see them off, and the Japanese military police blocked the road to escort them. The identity of that group of people aroused Cheng Qianfan's interest, which was why he suddenly decided to get off the car to find Sakamoto Yosano.

From the moment he got off the car to the few minutes when he knocked on the door to enter, Cheng Qianfan planned to eavesdrop and find out more about the group of people because he guessed that the identities of that group of people should be important or even sensitive. In order not to arouse suspicion, Cheng Qianfan originally planned to eavesdrop and find out more.

However, when he knocked on the door and came in, Cheng Qianfan changed his mind and decided to get straight to the point by casually chatting.

There is no other reason, it's just that given Sakamoto Ryouno's temperament, his kind of frank chat is the safest, while other pretentious chats are more likely to arouse suspicion afterwards.

……

"I'm seeing off Lord Oizumi." Sakamoto Ryano said, looking at Miyazaki Kentaro, "Lord Oizumi Takaya."

"Ah?" Cheng Qianfan looked surprised.

"Mr. Oizumi is Uncle Imamura's high school classmate and currently works for the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology in the Imperial Cabinet," said Sakamoto Ryouno. "He is here to pay a visit to Uncle Imamura."

"Just now I saw the Imperial Military Police blocking the road and imposing martial law. I thought someone from the military or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had come to Asia." Cheng Qianfan said in amazement, "I didn't expect it to be the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology..."

"You are looking down on the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology," Sakamoto Yoshinori joked.

"Not really." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and said, "I just didn't expect it to be someone from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. I heard that some people in the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology are very aloof and look down on the imperial soldiers."

"How could that be?" Sakamoto Ryouno shook his head. "I have met seniors from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology before. They always encouraged me. They are all admirable seniors."

"Mr. Sakamoto, your father is His Excellency Sakamoto Nagayuki." Cheng Qianfan's face lengthened and he said unhappily, "Even now, you can be considered a young diplomat."

"I think you can call me a young diplomat." Sakamoto Ryōno was not satisfied with his friend's address to him, and said, "Or at least a young diplomatic talent."

Cheng Qianfan just smiled and said nothing.

I'll give you an expression and you can experience it yourself.

……

"Am I really that bad?" Sakamoto Ryouno thought for a moment and asked. He knew that he was only average at work and could not be considered outstanding because he had never given up his literary dream and was forced by his father to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' embassies and consulates abroad.

"I'm jealous." Cheng Qianfan stopped teasing Sakamoto Ryouno and said with a smile, "I'm jealous that you can be taught by the Excellency of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology."

"Miyazaki, you bastard!" Sakamoto Ryono screamed.

The two of them played around for a while.

……

"What do you think of this painting?" Sakamoto Ryouno proudly took out a painting and asked Miyazaki Kentaro to appreciate it.

"Huh?" Cheng Qianfan exclaimed, took the painting with both hands, carefully placed it on the table, and observed it carefully. "Although I am not good at calligraphy and painting, this painting has exquisite brushwork, appropriate use of colors, and a strong sense of layering and three-dimensionality. It is fascinating at first sight."

As he said this, he looked at Sakamoto Ryouno, "Is this your painting, Sakamoto-kun?"

Cheng Qianfan was surprised and said, "I've never heard that you, Mr. Sakamoto, are good at calligraphy and painting?"

Then he quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, this painting is a masterpiece that can only be created by a master who has worked hard for decades. It can't be a painting by you."
