Araki Zhe's attitude made Zhan Yuanliang clearly know that he must not stay here anymore, he can only give up the main goal, and if he continues to entangle, he will soon be exposed, and he must get out as soon as possible, he quickly withdrew the wine bottle in his hand, bowed, turned around and retreated.

When Tetsu Araki saw Zhan Yuanliang leaving, he returned to Junpei Uehara, who was talking to Hidetoshi Shimizu in a low voice at this time, and did not notice the episode.

But Ning Zhiheng beside him saw the whole process clearly, Ning Zhiheng turned around and made a gesture to Araki Zhe, Araki Zhe hurriedly stepped forward and bowed in front of Ning Zhiheng.

"What's wrong?" Ning Zhiheng asked in a low voice.

"It was the consulate staff who came to deliver the wine, a Chinese, I thought it was a little strange, but the consul general said that there was no problem with this person, so I sent him away."

Ning Zhiheng nodded when he heard this, he was also a little suspicious of Zhan Yuanliang's appearance, but seeing that Araki Zhe handled it properly, he no longer paid attention to the matter.

At this time, Zhan Yuanliang turned around and walked back, he still followed the east aisle, came to the nearest long table from Keisuke Ueno's meal, secretly observed, and felt that no one paid attention to him, so he stepped forward in a few steps, put the two bottles of sake on the outermost position of the long table, turned around and walked away quickly, his movements were very natural, if no one deliberately paid attention, he would not be able to find the abnormality.

The next thing is to evacuate quickly, and when someone comes to get the drink to drink, the symptoms of poisoning will soon appear, and there is not much time left for him.

Zhan Yuanliang walked towards the entrance where he came just now, walked out of the banquet hall, and walked through the corridor, all the way to the back door of the consulate.

The guard at the back door watched Zhan Yuanliang come out, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, today's situation is special, in addition to the guards of the original consulate at the back door, there are also a few more special high school personnel guarding, watching Zhan Yuanliang come out, the consulate guard couldn't help asking: "Zhan Jun, where are you going?" ”

Several other special high school personnel also looked at it, and Zhan Yuanliang hurriedly explained: "Kamimura-kun, I feel a terrible stomachache and want to go to the hospital to take a look, I have already asked Consul Uchida for leave, please let me go quickly." ”

When Shangcun heard this, he saw Zhan Yuanliang holding his stomach with his hands on his face, with a painful expression on his face, and he did not doubt him, so he hurriedly explained to several other special high school personnel, but these special high school personnel were still a little uneasy, and asked Zhan Yuanliang to show his documents, and waited until Zhan Yuanliang took out the work documents of the consulate, and then waved his hand and let him go.

Zhan Yuanliang walked out of the back door quickly, hurriedly called a rickshaw, sat on it and told the coachman to go quickly, the rickshaw driver agreed, started quickly, and soon there was no trace.

And at this time, in the banquet hall, Ning Zhiheng saw that the time was not early, so he got up and came to the side of Gong Yichun, and whispered a few words in his ear, and Gong Yichun nodded quickly.

So Junpei Uehara and Hidetoshi Shimizu also got up one after another, and with Kochijun Hori, they came out of the banquet hall and came to the private room that had been prepared, and continued their conversation, there were many things that had to be contacted privately, and Ning Zhiheng and Araki Tetsuya followed closely and came to wait nearby.

But after a while, an exclamation came from the hall, and someone was heard shouting, "It's not good, it's poisonous in the wine!" ”

Immediately there was a sound of broken disks, cups and bowls, and the sound of crying and shouting sounded, Ning Zhiheng and Araki Tetsu were both shocked, they quickly glanced at each other, ran quickly to the private room, and pushed open the door, only to see Junpei Uehara and Hidetoshi Shimizu sitting in the room decently, safe and sound, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, he heard a sharp and shrill siren sounding again, and Junpei Uehara suddenly asked sharply, "What happened?" ”

"I don't know!" Ning Zhiheng shook his head, he was also at a loss, he really didn't know what was going on.

At this time, Tetsu Araki also summoned several guards around him to guard the door, and said, "In the banquet hall, it seems that someone has been poisoned. ”

Shimizu Hidetoshi's face also changed, and he hurriedly said: "Quick, go and see Hashimoto-kun and Ohara-kun, don't have an accident!" ”

Akisuke Hashimoto and Hayabusa Ohara are members of the House of Nobles, and they are also representatives of the two families, except that their official positions are not as good as Hidetoshi Shimizu, but they are not weak in terms of influence at all, and if something goes wrong, it will definitely be a political disaster!

"Hey, please rest assured, Your Excellency the Deputy Secretary, the hall is heavily guarded, they are all our people, and there will be no problems." Tetsu Araki comforted Hidetoshi Shimizu, and then ordered the guards to escort him here, and ran towards the banquet hall himself.

The shrill sound of sirens alarmed all the guards, and they all rushed to the banquet hall in a swarm, and at the same time, there were quick response special high school operatives, who had already surrounded the banquet hall, and some of the guests ran out, but they were all forcibly driven back.

But soon another group of people rushed out of the banquet hall, it was Hashimoto Akiyoke and a group of other Japanese high-level officials, who were immediately surrounded and protected by the guards around them after the incident, and then escorted them out of the banquet hall as soon as possible.

Tetsu Araki was relieved to see that these high-level officials were safe and sound, but he still had to understand the situation as soon as possible so that he could report to Junpei Uehara, so he continued to move forward and rushed into the banquet hall.

When he entered the banquet hall, he found that it was already a mess, in the middle of the hall, several tables and chairs were tilted, broken wine bottles and dishes were scattered all over the ground, many people were lying on the ground and vomiting, some staggered a few steps, and then fell to the ground, and some people fell directly to the ground, foaming at the mouth, letting out bursts of painful wails, the scene was extremely miserable.

The other guests were all driven aside, staring at the scene in front of them dumbfounded, and even many family members and female guests let out frightened cries, and then they were covered by the people around them with their hands, not daring to make a sound again.

Imai Yushi, the head of the special high school section who was originally in the banquet hall, was taking his subordinates and some Japanese officers who were not poisoned to maintain order, in the end, they were well-trained soldiers, and after the accident, they issued an alarm in time, and controlled the scene in the shortest possible time, isolating the personnel.

"Immediately notify the nearest hospital and let them send all the ambulances, there are many poisoned people, be quick!" Imai Yushi instructed his subordinates.

"Hey," one of his subordinates agreed, and quickly ran out.

At this time, Imai Yushi's heart is full of regret, today's welcome banquet, he is responsible for the security work inside the consulate, for today's welcome banquet, he has been as carefully arranged as possible, but this kind of thing still happened, looking at the poisoned people lying on the ground, wailing, there are many Japanese officers and dignitaries, as well as many high-ranking officials of the Nanjing government, he doesn't know how to explain to the top.

At this moment, there was also a panic outside the Consulate General, and the military police and a large number of Japanese puppet military police quickly arrived at the scene, surrounding the consulate.

Since such an incident happened in the consulate, all the Japanese high-ranking officials were arranged to leave first and escorted back to their residences.

When the ambulance arrived and all the poisoned people were taken to the hospital for first aid, Imai Yushi began to survey the scene and count the damage.

Junpei Uehara, as the head of the intelligence work, stayed behind to deal with the whole thing and urge the special high school to complete the investigation as soon as possible.

Ning Zhiheng has been accompanying Junpei Uehara throughout the whole process, watching Imai Yushi and other special high school personnel, busy running around.

Half an hour later, Yushi Imai, who finally figured out some of the situation, hurriedly ran to report to Junpei Uehara.

"General, the current losses have been counted, there are a lot of poisoned people, a total of thirty-four, eleven officers on active duty on our side, ten officials from government departments, and thirteen government officials of the Nanjing government, all of whom have now been sent to the nearest Tongrenhui hospital for treatment, and I have sent competent personnel to accompany and supervise them."

"Have you found out the cause of the poisoning?" Junpei Uehara's face was gloomy, as if he could drip water, and looking at Imai Yushi's gaze, Imai Yushi couldn't help but shiver.

He hurriedly replied: "It has been ascertained, the poison is in the wine, it can be basically determined, there is poison in both sake and rice wine, and the preliminary judgment is potassium cyanide poisoning." ”

"Potassium cyanide? If it was potassium cyanide, they should all be dead by now! "Junpei Uehara is well aware that potassium cyanide is highly toxic, and after poisoning, it will soon be fatal, and this should not be the case now.

Imai Yushi explained: "It is indeed potassium cyanide, which has been confirmed by the military doctor, but for some reason, the person who poisoned the potassium cyanide adjusted the concentration of potassium cyanide very low, resulting in a much lighter degree of poisoning. ”

When Junpei Uehara heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it was finally a great luck in misfortune, he didn't know why the poisoner lowered the concentration of potassium cyanide, but it was finally good news.

"What about the poisoners?"

"We haven't caught it yet, but we checked the personnel at the scene, and there is one person missing from the staff of the consulate?"

"Who is it?" Junpei Uehara immediately raised his eyebrows.

"A Chinese clerk, named Zhan Yuanliang, was cooking in the kitchen when the banquet was going on, and later appeared in the banquet hall, before the incident, he lied that he had a stomachache and was going to the hospital to see a doctor, and left through the back door of the consulate!"

"Chinese? Bastard! ”

Junpei Uehara couldn't suppress the anger in his heart anymore, and slapped Yushi Imai in the face hard.
