Chapter 1957 Insulting the National System
The night was dark.
Mao Xuanyi touched the spot where he had been shot; it was slightly damp, indicating that it was bleeding a little.
He specifically chose a spot under a streetlamp, backlit, with his top hat pulled low to better protect himself from having his face clearly seen.
About seven or eight minutes later, a postman came over pushing a rickshaw, cursing as he went.
When he walked to Mao Xuanyi's side, he glanced at Mao Xuanyi.
Mao Xuanyi took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his mouth, but did not light it.
"It's me." The postman noticed the movement and immediately said, "Sha Wujing from the Water Curtain Cave of Jiuhua Mountain."
"Isn't he Pigsy from the Water Curtain Cave of Flower and Fruit Mountain?" Mao Xuanyi asked.
The code matched.
The postman stopped talking and set up his rickshaw, pretending to repair it.
"Why are you in such a hurry to see me? What happened?" Mao Xuanyi asked.
"Qin Wenming's address has been found," the postman said.
"Where is it?" Mao Xuanyi's expression changed.
Qin Wenming was the head of Nanjing District. He was arrested and defected to the enemy some time ago, handing over the entire Nanjing District.
Furthermore, Qin Wenming subsequently identified Chen Gongshu, who had been arrested, and Chen Gongshu then implicated the Shanghai district.
This directly led to the near annihilation of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Nanjing and Shanghai districts.
"No. 38, Rue de la Cité, Pétain District, French Concession," the postman said.
"Is he still in Shanghai?" Mao Xuanyi seemed somewhat skeptical of this information.
"The intelligence came from the 'Qiqiao Flower' department," the postman said.
Mao Xuanyi fell silent. He received a secret telegram from Chongqing at the beginning of last year and subsequently made contact with this mysterious "Qiqiao Flower".
According to Director Qi, this "Qiqiao Flower" can be absolutely trusted.
As it turns out, the intelligence delivered by the 'Qiqiao Flower' was indeed very accurate, with some intelligence even surpassing that of the highest-ranking officials.
However, to date, he has never even seen a 'Qiqiao Flower', let alone knows whether it is male or female.
……
"Okay, I understand." Mao Xuanyi nodded.
The postman finally finished installing the bicycle chain, and then suddenly asked, "Are you injured?"
Mao Xuanyi glanced at the postman, said nothing, and walked away.
The postman got on his bike and rode away, then shook his head with a wry smile. He had no other intention than to show concern for his comrade, but he hadn't expected his brother to be so wary.
Cage Alley.
Lu Liu came to Qiao Chuntao's side, covered his hands, and whispered a few words to the stationmaster.
"I understand," Qiao Chuntao said calmly, nodding slightly.
……
Nanjing Special Higher Education Class.
torture room.
Shusuke Minamimura arrived in front of a tortured man who was bound to a rack and whose body was covered in blood and gore.
"Did he speak?" he asked the men who were torturing him.
“No,” Suzuki Tomoyuki said. “He’s a die-hard who won’t say anything.”
“Even during the torture, this man didn’t scream,” he told Shusuke Minamimura.
"I see." Nanmura Shusuke frowned. He picked up the leather whip and lashed it five or six times in succession. The other man only groaned twice at most, but ultimately did not scream.
“Interesting,” said Shusuke Minamimura.
"Chief, should we continue with the torture?" Suzuki Tomoyuki asked.
Shusuke Minamimura looked at the person next to him.
The man stepped forward, carefully examined the victim's condition, shook his head, and said, "This man was already injured, and now the severe torture has further damaged his body. If the torture continues, I'm afraid he won't live more than three days."
"Take him to the hospital," Minamimura Shusuke decided immediately. "To treat his injuries."
"Hai."
……
“Send a team to keep a 24-hour watch,” said Shusuke Minamimura. “This person absolutely cannot be allowed to be lost.”
Although the raid on the anti-Japanese stronghold of Shimonoseki was a great success, what Nanmura Shusuke found unacceptable was that he still couldn't determine which faction the site they had taken down belonged to.
When the Special Higher Police broke into their home and surrounded them, the other side resisted with great determination.
They could even be described as fearless and undaunted.
Of the two people captured, one is seriously injured and still in critical condition, while the other has remained silent despite being severely tortured.
This only piqued Minamimura Shusuke's interest further. His intuition told him that the anti-Japanese stronghold he had inadvertently destroyed might be quite extraordinary.
Red Party?
Military rule?
Central Bureau of Investigation?
"Also, release the word that the two people we captured alive are dead," said Minamimura Shusuke.
"Hai," Suzuki Tomoyuki said, bowing.
……
Primrose Izakaya.
Cheng Qianfan, Kawada Atsuto, and Sakamoto Ryono each had two geishas in their arms and were having a great time.
After Onodera Shogo went on his "campaign," Cheng Qianfan often came to Kawada Atsuto for drinks and entertainment.
Kawada Atsuto clapped his hands, and the six geishas obediently withdrew.
“Onodera has sent a telegram,” Kawada Atsuto said. “He is performing well at the front and has also detected a Chinese army’s attempt to launch a surprise attack, which has been praised by General Sakai.”
Shogo Onodera was assigned to lead the 15th Division on this "military expedition," and the division commander, General Naotsugu Sakai, and Commander Ikeuchi were alumni of the same school.
"Come on, let's drink to Onodera-kun and wish him continued success in his military campaigns," Cheng Qianfan said happily.
Kawada Atsuto smiled and nodded, and the three clinked glasses.
Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open.
The one who came in was Nishino Tai, a guard sent by the Kawada family to serve Kawada Atsuto.
"Young Master, Onodera-kun is calling." Nishino Tai handed a carefully folded telegram to Kawada Atsuto with both hands.
Kawada Atsuto frowned.
Shogo Onodera called me just two days ago. He's on the front lines, so he doesn't usually send calls to 'report on his work'. The fact that he called so suddenly means there must be something important.
Cheng Qianfan also showed concern, "Atsuto, has something happened to Onodera-kun?"
Kawada Atsuto waved his hand, signaling Nishino Tai to leave.
He then unfolded the telegram and looked down at it.
……
Cheng Qianfan pretended to be concerned about Onodera Shogo, but in reality, he was staring into Kawada Atsuto's eyes, trying to capture the change in Kawada Atsuto's expression the moment he read the telegram.
As expected, Kawada Atsuto's expression changed immediately after reading the telegram.
Then, Cheng Qianfan even heard Kawada Atsuto mutter something under his breath.
"Young Master Atsuto, has something happened?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately. "Is Onodera alright?"
Atsuto Kawada was pleased to see Kentaro Miyazaki's concern for Shogo Onodera.
He shook his head. "Onodera is fine. He's safe."
"It's good that you're alright." Hearing Kawada Atsuto say that, Cheng Qianfan breathed a sigh of relief before continuing, "Is the fighting at the front going poorly?"
"For a dignified lieutenant general to suffer such an absurd calamity is a disgrace to the nation," said Atsuto Kawada.
Hearing Kawada Atsuto's words, Cheng Qianfan was overjoyed, but his expression was a mixture of doubt, curiosity, and worry. "What happened?"
