Chapter 172: Sanye Mansion
Then, Li Fengzhu talked in detail about what he overheard Tang Shubai and Fang Xiaorou arguing about. From their voices, it can already be concluded that the Oriental spies are secretly making trouble and sowing discord in order to sabotage the legitimate patriotic movement of the people. Besides, they still make a big fuss about the pen, disparaging the patriotic behavior of the Chinese to worthless. What's more, the izakaya on Asahi Street, whose owner Toyama is not a simple businessman. And the location of this intelligence station was located just opposite the Ta Kung Pao Museum, which is probably not accidental.
If Ta Kung Pao takes the news seriously, it will not publish news like this, which is only heard and has no evidence. Therefore, the report on today's Italian Garden begins with Chen Yanping's point of view the degree of secrecy in the organization of this speech event. The focus of the next large article is what Li Fengzhu saw with his own eyes, accompanied by on-site photos, to establish the authenticity of this report. On the other floor, Xu Xinqi disguised himself and passed the assessment of Dongxing Building, and then entered a private mansion in Hongjili. The owner of the house is surnamed Sanye, and his Chinese language is very good, and whenever he comes back, he can always mingle with the gangsters who have been recruited regardless of culture or class.
Xu Xinqi also inquired about this person in the military circles when he was free, and everyone said that there seemed to be more than one Oriental with the surname Sanye in Jinmen, but the one who could speak Chinese well should be Mino Yukichi. He was a top student at the Oriental Army University, and worked as a military adviser to a big warlord in Shanxi, but later Yan Xishan lost power, and this person was silent for a while. In the past two or three years, I have gradually begun to participate in communication, but I only come forward in my personal capacity, and no one has inquired about the truth on the first level of official rank. It is only known that he has always been unhappy with the old officers in Beiyang in private or in public, criticizing the current powerful Guomin Party officers for not being popular with the people, and advocating the orthodoxy of the Republic of China in Beiyang.
"Although Beiyang has not been subjected to the national government, but just one Anfu system has judged the country very much, and it is contrary to the will of the people, where does the face come from to talk about orthodoxy. Moreover, putting these aside, judging from the experience of several in-depth investigations, it is impossible for the Orientals and the group of Chinese who advocate pro-Japanese to stand up for the common people for no reason. I'm afraid this is another trick of the people, so let's not talk about it for the time being. When Xu Xinqi said, he jumped away from a joke that Sanye agreed with the old people of Beiyang, and began to describe the daily life in the mansion.
Over there, the three meals a day are all big dishes. In addition, there are cigarettes, alcohol, and beauties, which point to the three weaknesses of men in the world. Imagine an unemployed homeless person who is unwilling to work hard because of his lack of knowledge, and suddenly arrives in a place where he does not have to worry about food and housing, does not need to spend money to enjoy cigarettes, alcohol and beauty, and can still get three or four yuan of silver for nothing every day.
Of course, we can't underestimate everyone. Xu Xinqi also met one or two people, and when he first arrived at Sanye Mansion, he hesitated. They believe that the money of the Oriental people is all Chinese who are looted, especially the people who are suffering from hardship, and that kind of looting is different from mountain thieves and bandits, not only asking for people's money, but also trampling on human dignity, and even encroaching on land, trampling and disposing of people like animals. Therefore, these two people are not happy to stay in Sanye for a long time. For this situation, the mansion actually has a very open attitude and comes and goes absolutely freely. It took less than half a day for them to come back automatically.
Xu Xinqi wanted to ask at that time, why did he change his mind so quickly. However, where is the need to ask, as soon as the repentant person arrives at the mansion, he rushes straight to the couch. Only then did he remember that when he first stepped into the gate of the mansion, a group of warblers and swallows pounced, holding wine glasses in one hand and cigarette sticks in the other, followed by left and right sipes, and they themselves drank and smoked first to show that it was definitely not a trap. Three sentences and two sentences frightened a group of lonely poor men who were stunned every night, and they used residual wine as saliva and tobacco as an elixir. Since the first puff of smoke, the end of the marionette has been doomed, and the Sanye Mansion is naturally happy to be a fake good person.
After sighing, Xu Xinqi added: "Once everyone drank until late at night, there was a nickname 'Brother Dao', who had been there in Sanye for more than three years, and he said everything on the wine. He said triumphantly that he had made meritorious contributions in the suppression of the Communist Party, and that a Communist Party had quietly infiltrated him, but he was killed in half a day. ”
Li and Chen were puzzled when they heard this, and asked in unison how they found out.
Xu Xinqi sneered first, but his smiling eyes quickly overflowed with bitterness: "You must not be able to laugh bitterly when you say it." Brother Dao said that the Communist Party was mixed in the newcomers, which looked inconspicuous at first glance, but as soon as he entered the mansion, he was exposed. Because he drinks with a sip, probably because he doesn't want to make himself confused. In addition, he is not eager for beauty, and he is even more resistant to big smoke. This kind of person does not need to be tried, and there is no doubt that the Communist Party is the Communist Party. ”
With that, all three laughed.
However, Chen Yanping's face suddenly turned red, pointing at Xu Xinqi, wanting to say but not daring to say it, and holding back his panic if he didn't say it, he said for a long time: "I see, Director Xu's teeth are very white......
Li Fengzhu was stunned for a moment, and then his body trembled with laughter. She understood the meaning of Chen Yanping's words, because when Sanye Mansion saw a decent person, she would judge this person as a communist. And Xu Xinqi is not suspicious, that is to say, he gives the impression of Sanye Mansion as indecent. But his teeth are white, which means that he has not contracted a big cigarette. He probably enjoyed a lot of the wine and beauty, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get out of it.
Xu Xinqi was dumbfounded, his face was as purple as an eggplant. He got up to reach the small teapot that had been moved to the corner of the table, poured three cups of herbal tea, and then found a suitable excuse: "I am also an old reporter, and experience has taught me that if you want to lurk safely in Sanye without stepping on the bottom line, the best way is to vividly play a drunkard." ”
This is the first time Li Fengzhu has heard Chen Yanping lose his words since he met him. However, the seriousness and complexity of the situation made her not want to keep joking. She wrote down two mysteries: What is Yuanshan's position, and who is Manager Jin of Dongxing Building?
Xu and Chen turned sideways to watch.
After pondering for a moment, Li Fengzhu's tightly knit brows loosened slightly, and he snapped his fingers and said, "I have a solution." After a while, I tried to call and ask Tang Shubai to go out to dinner. I have a lot of old and new accounts with him, and it is natural for me to want to negotiate with him. ”
Chen Yanping asked very tacitly: "Do you plan to make an appointment in Dongxing Building?"
"Yes. Li Fengzhu looked at him, then turned his head to look at Xu Xinqi, "I think if Manager Jin knew that Tang Shubai was coming, he would have personally come to toast him with a glass of wine." ”
Xu Xinqi didn't think so, he felt that the risk of this move might not be proportional to the gain, so he refused to agree vaguely: "Then you can see him, but it's just polite words on the scene, I'm afraid you won't be able to find out particularly useful information, but you have to take the risk......"
Li Fengzhu said: "It's okay to just see it, I won't do dangerous things, let alone ask dangerous questions." I want to write down the characteristics of this person, and in the future, we will slowly ask friends in Pingdu to inquire about which old family this surname Jin comes from. Besides, I had some calculations, and I expected the two of them to meet and talk right under my nose, and although it would not be classified, I could at least hear the depth of their friendship. This kind of side information is not big, but it can also play a big role at critical moments. All in all, I've decided to go, but there will be no move that worries you. ”
Xu Xinqi saw that she was thoughtful layer by layer, and her attitude was also very resolute, so naturally it was not easy to object, but she just told her to be careful in everything.
Although the reports on the patriotic parade are not thoroughly investigated, it seems that the mysteries left behind have reached the level of the Japanese side's top-secret strategy. It is good to be able to dig up the truth, but this kind of truth may not be able to be released unhindered. Therefore, Xu Xinqi decided that he didn't have to wait for the truth to come out, and only made the most detailed report on the appearance for the time being, and it was scheduled to be published on the front page headlines tomorrow.
After talking, the three of them each went to write about the part of their own experience. Later, I gathered around to see what kind of effect the washed out photos were.
From time to time, Li Fengzhu asked his colleagues where Jiang Yiyao had gone. Someone told her that the Haizhou General Pavilion had sent a representative to the north, and that he had arrived at the train station this morning. This is probably for social affairs here, and Jiang Yiyao is in charge of hospitality.
Li Fengzhu thought that the representative sent by the main hall this time should be burdened with a heavy responsibility, otherwise Wang Fuchun should be allowed to entertain him, I am afraid that it is precisely to reconcile the contradictions within the Tianjin Pavilion. If this is the case, then Jiang Yiyao will not be able to get out of her body before this representative leaves. This can't help but sigh heavily, as if there is a very heavy pimple in my heart.
In the evening, Li Fengzhu picked up the phone and only called the number once to talk to Tang Shubai. She was nervous and hesitant to say that she wanted to come out to meet, but unexpectedly, Tang Shubai, who was busy with nothing, agreed very happily.
###
At seven o'clock in the evening, Li Fengzhu waited at the gate of Dongxinglou Restaurant as promised. When passers-by saw her standing alone, they couldn't help but look sideways. She was not very comfortable to be looked at, so she simply stood on the top of the corner of the stone staircase.
It wasn't until Tang Shubai smiled and said "Haihan" twice that Li Fengzhu turned around.
When the four eyes were staggered, many pictures suddenly appeared in Li Fengzhu's mind, flying in front of him like a foreign film, and finally froze in the corner of Tang Shubai's eyes with tears. My heart couldn't help but jump wildly, and I didn't know what kind of expression to look at him for a while. just lowered his eyebrows, and said with a smile and a fake: "You are very busy." ”
