Chapter 15: The protagonist of the drinking party
Chapter 15: The protagonist of the reception
The sky gradually darkened, and the Navy Club was holding a unique cocktail party at this time, in which countless guests pushed glasses and changed lamps, and the entire Navy Club was filled with a festive atmosphere.
Ono opened the car door and greeted Tanaka.
Tanakaji didn't have much smile on his face, especially when he entered the Navy Club and saw these happy people, his face couldn't help but be a little more gloomy, and his gloomy expression seemed out of place with the entire Navy Club at this time.
Ono couldn't help but feel a little more worried when he looked at Tanakaji's appearance, although he didn't have the right to ask what Tanakaji did, but especially after his remarks came out in the afternoon, Ono couldn't let go of the worry in his heart at all.
Of course, Tanakaji will not directly spread any inappropriate remarks on any occasion, and if he says those remarks in such a public place, the consequences may be irreparable.
It's just that he naturally couldn't be interested in such a party that he had to attend but scoffed at, so he had to pick up the wine glass and drink the wine in the glass to relieve the displeasure in his heart.
"Why is Mr. Tanaka drinking here alone?"
Just as Tanaka was drinking alone, a not-so-friendly voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Tanakaji turned his head to look and saw a navy junior walking towards him with a wine glass, with a smile on his face.
Originally, Tanakaji couldn't remember who it was for a while, but when he turned his head and saw the navy uniform he was looking at, Tanakaji probably recalled the identity of the comer, Ito Masayuki of the Marine Corps, and he had some unpleasantness before, and it was obvious that because of that unpleasantness, the other party remembered his identity.
Seeing Ito Masayuki walking towards him, Tanakaji put down his wine glass and smiled, "Who did I think it was?" It turned out to be Ito Shaosa...... It seems that there will be no conflict with the army today because of drinking, right? ”
Hearing Tanakaji mention this matter, Ito Masaki's face was obviously not very good, after all, he was completely disgraced by Tanakaji last time, which caused him a lot of trouble.
However, on this occasion, Ito Masayuki had to restrain his dissatisfaction and smiled: "Of course not, this is the Navy Club, as long as I am a naval officer, I can't finish drinking here as long as I am in the rest time." ”
After saying that, Ito Masayuki couldn't help but raise his head a little. It seems to be telling him that he is the master of this place.
For such childish behavior of Masayuki Ito, Tanakaji couldn't help but chuckle, "Really? You are just a young man, are you qualified to say such things to me on behalf of the Navy? ”
Although it is on the territory of the navy, Tanakaji still hasn't given Ito Masayuki face, which makes Ito Masayuki's face even more ugly if he wants to save some face.
Tanakaji still doesn't put him in his eyes even now, and the things he cherishes are always devalued in Tanakaji's eyes, just a few words make him feel a tightness in his chest, but he has nothing to do about all this.
In such a happy atmosphere where everyone is in a happy atmosphere, he can't fight back if he is ridiculed, otherwise he is afraid that he will be kicked out, for which he has to secretly swallow this bitter fruit, he has a lot of prestige among the soldiers, but these can not become the capital for him to hold his head high in front of Tanakaji, he took the initiative to find Tanakaji this time It is really boring to talk about himself.
However, Tanakaji didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked away, as if he didn't want to disturb his drinking interest because of Ito Masayuki. Although Ito Masayuki can be regarded as a nobleman, he was not taken seriously by Tanakaji from the beginning.
Tanaka gathered to participate in this party mainly because Kagesa had already been invited, and it didn't matter much to argue with Kagesa in the Mei Agency, but he couldn't afford to lose face in front of outsiders, and more importantly, he was really interested in some recent things in the navy.
Of course, Ito Masayaki was not in his sphere of interest......
Looking at Tanakaji's back as he walked away, Masayuki Ito couldn't help but pour himself a glass of wine, suppressing the anger burning in his heart by taking a big sip of air, and looking at Tanakaji's back, his eyes were also full of anger at this time.
And just when Ito Masaki was angry, a relaxed voice sounded in his ears, "What? Is this little thing so angry? ”
Ito Masayuki was in a bad mood right now, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of the voice that had just appeared, but when he saw the person, he restrained his angry expression and replaced it with confusion.
The person who came was not from the navy, but wearing the uniform of the gendarmerie, obviously this person and the embarrassed Tanakaji were the same way, but at this time the other party was talking to him, what does it mean?
"Are you ......?"
"In the lower gendarmerie captain Yamamoto Fujio." Looking at his gaze, Fujio Yamamoto immediately reported to himself.
Although he won't collide with Tanakaji head-on now, he still doesn't like Tanakaji.
He had just seen that this Ito Masayuki and Tanakaji were unhappy, so he naturally stepped over here and came over to start this excitement.
"It's Captain Yamamoto! What's the matter? Ito Masayuki and Yamamoto Fujio did not intersect, but they also greeted politely.
After all, the personal grudge between him and Tanakaji has not risen between institutions, not to mention that this Captain Yamamoto obviously has no malice when he comes over, on the contrary, the meaning in his tone seems to be that he still has some troubles with Tanakaji, but now he sees it.
"As a person who came over, I will talk to you, there are skills in chatting with our Mei Agency, the deputy chief of Tanaka, and there are many things to pay attention to......" Yamamoto Fujio took a sip of wine and smiled.
However, Ito Masayuki didn't care about this and said: "Thank you for your kindness, but I think I should not provoke him in the future, and it is the right way to focus on this war, and now as soon as the second battlefield opens, the stage of the navy will come!" We can also get more military merits and get faster promotions, but I've waited too long for the opportunity we finally have, and to be honest, I've stopped for too long in this Shaozo's rank! ”
Although Yamamoto Fujio has a higher military rank, Ito Masayuki does not pay too much attention to him.
However, Yamamoto Fujio was not too discouraged, as if he wanted to say something more, but at this moment, there was a commotion at the drinking party, and everyone suddenly understood that tonight's protagonist is here!
