CHAPTER XXXVI
Jack? Blake is a new deputy commissioner.
He graduated from Harvard University, and his appearance and demeanor were impeccable, but he was too eager to climb the ladder, and even a father who was very influential in Congress was not enough for him, so he had to make 'waves' everywhere. The C.I.A. is said to be nothing more than a springboard for Jack, and it looks like the Republican is politically ambitious. Robert remembered how they shook hands when they met, and Jack's hands were soft and as cold as 'chicken' and 'meat' in the refrigerator.
Strangely enough, he still remembers the uncomfortable feeling.
"At least he can get you support from the director. At the end of the day, these politicians are a moral 'sex', and you have to learn to live with them, and maybe worse, you have to force yourself to eat them, even though they don't taste much better than poop. ”
Bob curled up in his neck and grinned.
"I can't ask anyone for help when I can't hold the oracle in the palm of my hand, especially these laymen. They're going to give you a lot of dizzying data, and as powerful as it may seem, you and I know it's a bunch of ***, and if I need it, I'll get a mathematician to help, but I can't let these people torture me with data, and I can't let them use that cold data to evaluate me. ”
Robert looked out the window at the parking lot and flatly rejected Bob's offer.
"But we can ask for help from our peers. I believe that friends from the East understand the thoughts of opponents better than you and me, let's analyze them better. I have asked the Japanese and they have agreed to send some people to help us, and Kurt has already set off for Tokyo. The Japanese are very methodical in China, and they are very obedient. ”
Walking on the streets of Tokyo, Kurt felt that there was not much difference between this place and New York, the same bustling, hurried crowds, the same towering but no 'color' buildings, and the most unbearable thing for Kurt was that the streets were full of yellow skin. Everyone who passes by him looks at Kurt with their dark eyes, reminding him of zombies from horror movies.
The two atomic bombs made them submit to power, but they could not change the fact that they were short and strange. Their small and narrow eyes are greedy and suspicious, men are obscene, and 'women' are ***. Just like his friends in the Japanese garrison said, in Japan, *** 'women' are idiot soldiers, as long as you show your white 'color', they will obediently crawl over.
Kurt had never been to Japan, so he would be skeptical of his friends. He had long since disbelieved in the legendary 'sexual' experiences of the GIs, many of which were descriptions of oil and vinegar, but now he found that perhaps the legends about Japan were not unreal, and many young 'women' dressed like ruffians from Brooklyn and Queens threw him ambiguous looks.
They look whiter than Vietnamese 'women'.
In Haiphong, Vietnam, the 'women' are not only beautiful, but also good at singing and dancing, and Kurt has always considered it the best place he has ever been, and this place has yet to be experienced by him.
At a restaurant called "Tsuruya", Kurt met with Kenzo Kikui, the head of the international division of the Cabinet Intelligence and Investigation Office, and Yoshio Suzuki, the head of the China class under the International Ministry. Kenzo Kikui was a friend of Bob's friends when he was in Japan, and although the cooperation with Japan was coordinated by the CIA, the relationship between Bob and Kikui was also a factor that played a big role. Cotter did not go straight to the internal transfer headquarters, and his intention was to strengthen the "communication" of "private" people first.
During China's Taiwan Strait exercise in 1996, there were also some minor frictions between Japan and the United States, and Japan did not receive any intelligence sharing and care as the Americans had promised on many important decisions; for example, Japan only received information from the United States on the early stage of the Taiwan Strait crisis after repeated requests, and at that time, Japan even had to 'spend' money to buy US satellite reconnaissance intelligence; and Japan was not notified of the dispatch of the "Nimitz" aircraft carrier; In fact, taking advantage of the crisis in the Taiwan Strait, the Americans even demanded that the return of the "Futenma" base in Okinawa be postponed, so Japan has always taken a cautious attitude toward cooperating with the Americans since then, and has gradually expanded the scale of its intelligence department, intending to keep up with the "Mossad" in Israel.
Kenzo Kikui, who was dressed in a kimono, was a small man, his bald head was cleanly shaved, and he was very dignified when he knelt there. Yoshio Suzuki, on the other hand, has a boxy face that is common among Japanese people, and his face is always full of humble smiles.
"I greeted the Chief Cabinet Secretary beforehand, and His Excellency the Chief Cabinet Secretary was cautious about this. The United States, as our ally, can fully share the results of our work in China, so we have instructed His Excellency the Chief of the Internal Investigation Office to arrange for cooperation, but the Chief Cabinet Secretary has made it clear that it is not appropriate for the Japanese side to send a candidate to infiltrate China. ”
After Kikui finished speaking, he bowed deeply in apology, and then waved his hand towards the red 'colored' square table.
"This is a special seafood in Japan, so please use it slowly."
"Why can't you send someone to infiltrate China?" Kurt was surprised that everyone knew about the delicate relationship between China and Japan, and in the eyes of the Americans, that reason was enough to make them hate China to the core. "It's not the same as we agreed before, Mr. Bob told me that I can count on your help."
"Although we have always insisted on putting pressure on the Chinese, this pressure should be relaxed and measured, neither making the Chinese government feel too tight nor making them feel too loose." Relations between China and Japan are at their worst in history, and any action that could polarize the relationship is undesirable. ”
Kurt looked at Kikui in bewilderment. Kikui saw that he didn't understand from his eyes, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Bob can speak and read and write Oriental scripts, but that doesn't mean he already understands Oriental culture, and it's telling that he sent a GI over, even though he had a staff officer. The Americans simply do not understand how Japan's good intentions are in dealing with China, and they have to talk a lot about everything, and if they were willing to listen to the advice of the Japanese, the current situation would not be like this. Now that the Americans themselves are beyond their strength, they are going to count on the Japanese to fight at the front?
Tell this American GI about this, does he understand? These cowboys, as stupid as their president, Kikui sighed in his heart. Although he didn't understand the good intentions of the Japanese, the Japanese still had to help him in their own way, which was especially sad for Kikui.
"What Kikui is saying is that the Japanese government will not send its own employees to China to spy on the relationship, and it seems that Japan can only afford to do the damage, especially economically." Suzuki made a round in time, smiling so hard that his eyes narrowed into a slit. "So the Internal Investigation Office will not be involved in your country's plans."
Kurt took turns looking at the two men. "When the governor sent me to Japan, he said something else entirely. I don't think I was wrong about him. I need your connections in China, and I need your spies in China. If there are any political concerns, that's not something I'm going to consider. ”
The Americans never had to think about it, they just wanted to plunder from others, Kikui thought not without indignation.
He owes a debt and gets up from his seat. "I can't help drinking, so I have to go back and rest, and Section Chief Suzuki is a famous drunkard in the internal adjustment room, and he can accompany you to drink to your heart's content."
Who the would go all the way to this place to drink this water-like drink, or with you yellow people.
Kurt took a deep breath and sent Kenzo Kikui away, watching the two of them bow goodbye to each other in the room, and then Suzuki chased him down the hallway and bowed. In any case, the humble and hierarchical attitude towards each other was fresh for Kurt.
After Kikui left, Suzuki's expression relaxed a lot.
"Chief Kikui is a serious person, and in front of him, his subordinates will inevitably be a little restrained, and there is no way to do it. This man is one of the few characters in the room who lacks a sense of humor. ”
He laughed to himself.
The person in charge of the "internal transfer" was originally called the head of the office, but after 2001, he was renamed the cabinet intelligence officer, and Suzuki was the "head of the office" when he opened and closed his mouth, indicating that he had been following Kikui for a long time.
Cotter was ignorant of the situation in the internal transfer room. Bob only told him that if the Internal Intelligence Office was to become an agency capable of unified analysis and processing of intelligence, and to expand and unify the existing intelligence system into a truly effective new intelligence agency like the Mossad, MI6, and even the CIA, it would have to have the support of the United States.
"Mr. Kikui may not have imagined that maintaining cooperation with the United States would be beneficial to Japan. I need the spies you've trained, and as the leader of the Chinese class, you must know something we don't know. "Kurt doesn't want to mess with these people, it's just going to give him a headache." No matter how much you want to maintain relations with China, China is your enemy, and the sooner it is destroyed, the sooner we will be at ease. ”
"Destroy China?" Suzuki repeated Kurt's words with a strange expression on his face.
The Americans are the world's only and undisputed superpower, conquering everyone he has been, including the Japanese. Someone will mention Vietnam, but that's another story. The Americans did not fight in China, except, of course, their "Flying Tigers", so they did not know how powerful the Chinese were. As the head of the Chinese class, Suzuki spent a lot of "fine" effort in studying China, especially during World War II. China did not give in to outsiders when it was at its weakest, could it be that now with the atomic bomb, it will be easily "destroyed"?
Kurt's words made Suzuki hilarious. Of course, he won't really show it. He also knew why Kikui left, and thought that the person sent by the Americans would be reasonable and at least a person who could communicate, but sending such a hard man only showed that the Americans lacked respect for the Japanese.
"It seems that the small thing that destroys China still has to ask Your Excellency to work hard!"
Suzuki actually bowed deeply to Kurt as well.
Then he sat up straight and looked at Kurt with a very serious demeanor.
"The Internal Investigation Room is a small organization, and the total number of people will not exceed two hundred, so we need the help of our allies, so we will not be able to help you accordingly, even without taking into account the advice of His Excellency the Chief Cabinet Secretary. Japan is a defeated country and cannot afford a scandal like espionage, so I can only say sorry to you. ”
Kurt stared intently at Suzuki, hoping to see something hidden on his face, but it was difficult to discern any emotion on the flattened faces of the Orientals, and their eyes were too small to tell what was going on when they spoke.
Suzuki suddenly realized that although the American did not seem to be so smart, his eyes contained terrifying power, and he was very calm, and any 'flower' words did not have the desired effect on him. This is the cleverness of the Americans, who know that since the Japanese will have to give in sooner or later, they will not 'waste' more 'energy' on those false and wrongful snakes.
The Cabinet Intelligence Investigation Office often relies on private intelligence, scientific research institutions, news broadcasting organizations, and general trading companies to gather information, which is called "commissioned investigation." There are more than 100 institutions in Japan that are regularly engaged in intelligence gathering and research, and among them, the World Political and Economic Survey Society, the International Situation Research Association, the Southeast Asian Political and Economic Research Association, the National Publishers Association, the Internal and Foreign Situation Research Association, the Doctrine Research Society, and Kyodo News are among the most powerful institutions. The most famous is the "World Political and Economic Survey Committee". The purpose of the association is to "improve the comprehensive research and related knowledge of politics, economics, and society in Japan and abroad," and its main tasks are to collect and investigate relevant materials, undertake commissioned investigations, hold seminars and seminars, and publish research results.
Since intelligence work is carried out, it is necessary to have spy personnel. Therefore, "internal investigation" also requires spies to carry out intelligence gathering activities. However, with the manpower and budget of "internal transfer", it is difficult to dispatch a large number of spy personnel, let alone the deployment and dispatch of spy personnel for a long time. As a result, most of the "internal transfer" spies are dispatched to external organizations, which is probably unique to Japan. In fact, almost all of the leaders and core cadres of these organizations are retirees of the intelligence system, and although they are only in the name of the people, the forces that can be mobilized are absolutely not to be underestimated.
