Several Japanese police officers are all in suits and leather shoes, looking similar to the white-collar workers working in large companies, but their expressions are more serious, and their temperament looks colder, and they all have a small badge with gold on a red background on their collars, Xu Yan doesn't understand what it means, it may be their logo.

Seeing Xu Yan coming over, the flat-headed, thin middle-aged police officer among them also greeted him, and said a chirping call, and Huang Xi immediately translated next to him: "This is the head of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Second Division and the First Department of the Search Division Nakamura Yaya Police Department, he would like to extend his greetings and greetings to Lieutenant Colonel Xu, welcome you to visit Japan, and say that you have worked hard all the way, and I hope that the police of the two countries can exchange more experience in dealing with these abnormal affairs...... He said please advise, and he bowed to you. ”

"Huang Xi, I don't need to translate this, I can see it. ”

"Ah, excuse me, Lieutenant Colonel. ”

Seeing that Nakamura Ya was also bowing deeply to himself, Xu Yan couldn't help but spit out, and then bowed back - naturally, the degree of correctness of his return salute was naturally incomparable to that of Nakamura, that is, it was just a general expression. Next, the head of the Nakamura department muttered again, several men and women behind him came forward one after another, bowed to Xu Yan, they signed up their own characters and identities, they are all police officers from the second section and one department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, there are too many of them, and the names of the Japanese are strange, Xu Yan can't remember their names and identities for a while, but when they probably introduced themselves, they seemed to be "director" or "police department", "police department supplement", "patrol minister" and the like- The level of the Japanese police system is no less complex than that in China, and Xu Yan can't figure out who is bigger and who is small. However, according to the usual practice, high-ranking officials are generally introduced first, and Xu Yan estimates that the Nakamura Yaya Police Department should be the highest-ranking leader of this gang.

Looking at a free time, Xu Yan asked Huang Xi in a low voice: "Huang Xi, this Zhongcun Police Department...... According to our domestic police, what level of official is he equivalent to?"

Huang Xi replied, "Lieutenant colonel." The police department is probably equivalent to the section level to the deputy department level in our country, and Nakamura Ya is also the head of the Metropolitan Police Department, so he can be a sub-director in the local police station...... Well, it's about the same as our police station chief. ”

Xu Yan let out an "oh". I also have a bottom in my heart: It seems that the Japanese are worthy of being a country that has been deeply influenced by Chinese culture for a long time, and they also have a deep understanding of officialdom etiquette, and when they know that they are officers at the deputy regimental level, they send a police officer at the deputy department level to greet them -- it can be seen that the Chinese civilization has a long and profound history, and it is not far off to carry it forward in the world.

Nakamura Yaya also chirped. Xu Yan couldn't understand half a word, but Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Qi, who was standing next to him, obviously understood, he looked at Xu Yan and stopped talking.

Xu Yan asked Huang Xi: "Huang Xi, what did the Nakamura Police Department just say?"

"Lieutenant Colonel, Nakamura Police Department said that he has booked a room for us at the Hilton Hotel in Tokyo, and hopes that we can enjoy the stay-" Huang Xi hesitated and said in a deep voice, "However, according to the previous schedule." Our first day's itinerary should be handled by the embassy. Assistant Zhang, is that so?"

Zhang Qi nodded: "That's right, according to our arrangement, tonight, Lieutenant Colonel Xu should rest in our embassy, and tomorrow we will be accompanied by our embassy to the Metropolitan Police Department to meet with the chiefs and then have a discussion with the experts of the Metropolitan Police Department - of course, the accommodation of our embassy is definitely not as comfortable as the Hilton Hotel." However, after all, it is a place for your own family. Let's live with peace of mind.

Of course, this is just an arrangement on the part of our embassy, and as for what to do, we are at the mercy of our guests. It's up to Lieutenant Colonel Xu to decide. ”

Zhang Qi said so, but in fact, he felt that Xu Yan would definitely choose his own embassy instead of the Hilton Hotel. The reason is actually very simple, because Xu Yan is not an ordinary official, he is also an officer from the intelligence system. A person like him stayed in a room that the Japanese had prepared for him in advance. It was not only a political mistake, but also an obvious low-level mistake -- God knows how many overt and covert bugging devices the Japanese had prepared for him in that room? How could a career intelligence officer make such a low-level mistake?

Xu Yan smiled and said: "In this case, since the Metropolitan Police Department already has a hotel, then I will go and stay well, and I will not trouble the comrades in the embassy." Assistant Zhang, please thank Military Attache Wang for your kindness on my behalf. ”

When Xu Yan said this, everyone present was quite surprised, and even the Japanese were taken aback: although they invited Xu Yan at the exit, they didn't have much hope. They also know that Chinese officials have always been very political, especially in the current situation of deteriorating relations between China and Japan, and it is difficult to imagine that a Chinese intelligence official would turn down an invitation from his embassy and move into the accommodation prepared for him by the Japanese.

Assistant Zhang Qi frowned slightly, and he couldn't help but remind Xu Yan: "Lieutenant Colonel Xu, do you want to think about this matter again?"

Xu Yan waved his hand aggressively: "No, I've already thought about it, so let's decide-of course, the Hilton Hotel is more comfortable than the embassy room, do you still need to think about it?"

Hearing Xu Yan's words, Assistant Zhang's face almost turned green on the spot, he turned his head, no longer looked at Xu Yan, and his heart was full of remorse - this little guy didn't know which family he was, and he became a lieutenant colonel in the Intelligence Department at a young age. I was worried about him and reminded him before, but now it seems completely redundant.

This little cub looks decent on the outside, and he can make do with the answers, but as soon as he encounters something, he immediately reveals the appearance of the essence of the straw bag - in such a major issue, the little cub actually thinks about which hotel is more comfortable to go to!

Thinking of this, Zhang Qi couldn't wait to scold his mother on the spot -- in fact, he should have discovered that this guy had two beautiful girls with him when he went abroad on a business trip, and this clearly showed which young master Kuo had come to Japan to play, and who was the person who had come to do serious things? These gentlemen in China really became more and more disagreeable! I was really blind, and I used to regard him as a really serious intelligence officer who came out on errands!

If he puts such a straw bag out to communicate with the Japanese, he will be embarrassed by himself, but he is afraid that he will lose his national dignity by then, and when the time comes, who will bear the responsibility?

He was furious in his heart, but out of the cultivation and cultivation of a diplomat, Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Qi still restrained himself, just narrowed his eyes slightly, and he said coldly: "Okay then." Since Lieutenant Colonel Xu insists on it, and our embassy is not reluctant, let it be arranged by your will -- we respect Lieutenant Colonel Xu's opinion, but this matter. We have to report back to China. ”

Hearing Assistant Zhang say this, Huang Xi's face changed slightly-she knew the weight of Assistant Zhang's words. She approached Xu Yan and whispered to Xu Yan: "Lieutenant Colonel, shouldn't we listen to the embassy's opinion on this matter? The advice of the local embassy should be followed. ”

What Huang Xi didn't expect was that Xu Yan, who was usually very easy-going, was stubborn this time, he shook his head and said, "I'm sorry - I thank the embassy and Assistant Zhang for their kindness, but this time, we have a reason." ”

Despite his self-cultivation, Zhang Qi was still extremely angry and snorted - this bastard has a fart reason, isn't he thinking about staying in a high-end hotel to eat, drink and have fun?

But what about Xu Yan, he is a member of the Ministry of Intelligence after all. He came to Japan on business, and as an embassy, he could only provide assistance and advice, but he could not interfere with his actions.

Assistant Zhang said very businesslikely: "Since Lieutenant Colonel Xu has decided so, then we respect your opinion - since Lieutenant Colonel Xu will not go back to the embassy with us, we will not hinder your work, and we will go back to resume our lives, and we will have a date later." ”

Looking at the back of Assistant Zhang's hurried departure, Huang Xi's eyes were faintly worried-Huang Xi really couldn't understand why Xu Yan chose to stay in the hotel provided by the Japanese Metropolitan Police Department instead of staying at the embassy. This not only offended the embassy. It also left a hidden danger for his future future.

Looking at Huang Xi and stopping to speak, Xu Yan smiled bitterly - although he was not a person in the officialdom, Huang Xi could think of something. He also knew that choosing a Japanese hotel instead of an embassy would definitely leave some hidden dangers, but the problem was that he had no other way - to stay in the embassy. Of course, this is in line with the rules and safe, but the problem is that one's freedom is also restricted.

In and out of the embassy, they are all accompanied by the embassy personnel, it is inconvenient to go anywhere by themselves, there is no room for free movement at all, how can I find that vampire hatchling?

Instead, he settled in a place arranged by the Japanese, and after all, he was a visiting guest, and with this status, it was impossible for the Metropolitan Police Department to follow him too closely, and he could still get a little room for free movement.

Xu Yanzhi is cultivating the Tao, but he doesn't really care about his career, but he just feels that he has failed Assistant Zhang's kindness to him, and he feels a little too reluctant.

The Nakamura Yaya Police Department stepped forward and chirped very seriously at Xu Yan, and Huang Xi translated in a timely manner: "The Nakamura Police Department said that Mr. Xu can choose to stay in the hotel prepared by the Metropolitan Police Department, which is their great trust, and they feel very honored. He said that he and his colleagues would do their best to serve Mr. Xu and ensure that the exchange would be a complete success with the utmost sincerity. ”

Facing the serious face of Nakamura Yaya Police Department, Xu Yan really didn't know what expression to use to respond to him. He smiled awkwardly and said to Huang Xi: "Please tell the Nakamura Police Department, I also look forward to the successful completion of this exchange activity." ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Nakamura Yaya invited Xu Yan to get in the car. The group drove towards the hotel. Along the way, everyone didn't talk about anything serious, but Xu Yan was going abroad for the first time, and he was a little curious about the street scenes on both sides.

In Xu Yan's view, if you talk about the prosperity of the city, Tokyo is not much better than the big cities in China such as the capital that he has seen, that is, it seems to be cleaner here, the air feels better to breathe, and their sky is not as gray as the capital, and you can see blue sky and white clouds. In addition, there are a lot of cars in Tokyo, but the traffic flow is very orderly, and there is no traffic jam, which shows that the Japanese are still very experienced and efficient in urban traffic management -- and Xu Yan can't see anything special about the rest.

The Metropolitan Police Department's hotel for Xu Yan is the Hilton Hotel in Shinjuku District, for which Nakamura Yaya also specially apologized to Xu Yan, saying that they had also considered arranging the Hilton Hotel in Tokyo Bay before, because the night view there is more beautiful, but the Hilton Hotel in Shinjuku District is closer to the Metropolitan Police Department, and for the convenience of everyone's communication and work, it was finally arranged for the Hilton in Shinjuku District. He apologized to Xu Yan for advocating for his own initiative, and Xu Yan even said that it was okay, and he had long heard that Shinjuku was also a prosperous area in Japan, and he was very happy to have this opportunity to visit in person.

Along the way, the Nakamura Yaya Police Department always had a serious expression and spoke very little, and Xu Yan also experienced this kind of diplomatic occasion for the first time. I was worried that I would say something wrong that shouldn't be said, and I rarely took the initiative to speak, so everyone said some nonsense along the way, and didn't talk about business.

Several Metropolitan Police Department officials sent Xu Yan to the lobby of the hotel. At this time, Nakamura Yaya proposed to Xu Yan that in order to facilitate Mr. Xu's contact and communication with the Metropolitan Police Department in Japan, the Metropolitan Police Department wanted to arrange for two liaison officers to accompany Xu Yan to help Xu Yan communicate with the Metropolitan Police Department. You can also take care of Xu Yan in daily life.

Saying that, as if he was afraid that Xu Yan would misunderstand that they had other intentions, Nakamuraya also specifically pointed out that they just lived in the next room, and usually did not interfere with Mr. Xu's life, but if Mr. Xu wanted to find them, he only needed to knock on the door next door to find them, which was very convenient.

Xu Yan and Huang Xi glanced at each other - the Metropolitan Police Department wanted to arrange people around them, and this matter had long been expected. Whether it's out of hospitality, courtesy, or for surveillance purposes. This was not surprising, but Nakamura Ya also said it frankly, which surprised Xu Yan - Xu Yan also thought that the Metropolitan Police Department's surveillance personnel should be sneakily hiding in a nearby phone booth and eavesdropping on his own conversation.

Knowing that this kind of thing couldn't be avoided, Xu Yan generously agreed: "Okay." In that case, it will be hard work for you - I wonder which two gentlemen are our liaison officers?"

Nakamura Yaya also turned around and yelled at his subordinates - I don't know if it was an illusion, Xu Yan always felt that the tone of this Nakamura head when he spoke to his subordinates seemed to be terrifying, and compared with when he was talking, the tone of his voice seemed to have suddenly increased by a level. The tone was very unkind - although Xu Yan couldn't understand Japanese, Nakamura's stern expression was probably not a warm word.

Amid Nakamura's roar, two young men, one woman and one woman, stepped forward. They bowed deeply to Xu Yan and said a few words, and Huang Xi translated to Xu Yan in time: "This man is Kirishima Ken Police Department, and this young lady is the head of Anqing Oriko's inspection department, they are all Mr. Nakamura's subordinates, and they are all searching for the criminal police officers of the second section and the first department-they are saying please take care of them." ”

Xu Yan also bowed and saluted back: "Two." It's been a lot of hard work. ”

He looked at the two people in front of him, the Miss An Qing looked very ordinary, wearing a dark professional skirt, with a delicate appearance, just like that kind of ordinary OL girl, and she couldn't see any characteristics when she stood in the crowd.

But the male police officer Kirishima Ken looks very special, he has a thin face, wearing a dark windbreaker, he is thin and tall, full of height above Xu Yan's head, his hair is very long and thick, unkempt, and the messy hair reminds Xu Yan of the beggar prince who was all the rage on the Internet before, his face has a beard and stubble, which looks very vicissitudes, but his eyes are very bright - his style reminds Xu Yan of a comic book he read when he was a child called "Chivalrous Detective Han Yuliang", the protagonist is probably like this, it looks very cool and vicissitudes.

Nakamuraya also had other things to do, and after making an appointment to go to the Metropolitan Police Department's countermeasures headquarters tomorrow for an exchange meeting, they said goodbye and left. Seeing that Nakamura Ya was also gone, Xu Yan breathed a long sigh of relief - after he finished this action, he found that almost everyone except himself was doing the movement of stretching his waist and stretching his long breath, especially the Kirishima police department, his action was even more exaggerated, and he yawned a long time while stretching his waist.

Seeing Xu Yan looking at him, Kirishima Ken retracted his arms a little embarrassed and smiled at Xu Yan.

For a moment, both of them smiled knowingly - the pressure on the Nakamura Yaya police department was too great. His stiff face rested here, and the air in the whole scene seemed to be a little thinner, and everyone didn't even dare to pant loudly. Looking at this Kirishima Ken's criminal performance, Xu Yan knew that the Nakamura Yaya Police Department was usually very strict with his subordinates, and his subordinates were very afraid of him.

Xu Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's uncomfortable to have such a boss, right?"

Listening to Xu Yankou's unobstructed mouth, Huang Xi coughed dryly: "Cough, lieutenant colonel, this, let's not talk nonsense about other people's affairs." ”

Xu Yan also regretted it a little, but he still said with a hard mouth: "It's okay, I see they don't understand Chinese, as long as you don't translate it, it's fine." ”

Before Xu Yan's voice fell, the Kirishima Ken Police Department made up grinning at him, showing his white teeth, and he said in clear Mandarin: "I'm sorry, Lieutenant Colonel Xu, I understand Chinese~~ You said it very well, His Excellency Nakajima Ya is indeed a headache, isn't it?"

Xu Yan looked at the other party in surprise and lost his voice: "Kirishima Police Department supplement, do you know Chinese?"

Kirishima nodded and explained to Xu Yan very seriously: "I went to China with my parents when I was a child, and I also studied in Shanghai, so I can understand some Chinese - I can't speak it well, which makes Xu Sangjian smile." (To be continued.) )
