Chapter Sixty-Seven: Call Me Zhang Quandan
"Resort?"
Thinking about how he felt when he first entered prison, Geng Chaozhong couldn't wait to smoke his two big ear scrapers.
This is obviously a combination of Futukang and 731!
Thinking of the days ahead, the irritable Geng Chaozhong couldn't help but clench his fists, and subconsciously looked at the northwest corner of the prison, huh? Where did that kid from Beichuan go?
From the southeast corner came Beichuan's timid voice:
"Geng Sang, I'm here."
Geng Chaozhong squinted at it, this guy actually learned to use the blind corner of his vision, and hid in a place where he couldn't see.
Geng Chaozhong was angry and funny, laughing and scolding:
"Don't call me Geng Sang in the future, call me Zhang Quandan!"
"Okay, Zhang Sang." Beichuan nodded respectfully, he really couldn't figure out the temper of this boss, when he first came, he called Geng Sang, and later when he introduced him to others, he called him Li Sang, and now he lets him be called Zhang Sang, whatever, no matter what Sang, as long as he doesn't beat people, it's a good Sang.
However, it seems that Geng Sang has no desire to beat people today, indeed, after being tormented by the noise all afternoon, anyone wants to be quiet for a while.
It was late at night, and it was pitch black outside the iron window. The whole prison was silent, and the occasional sound of Suo Suo could be heard on the wooden floorβit was a rat from outside the prison coming in to play in the autumn wind. But after a few moments, even the rats stopped moving.
In the dim cell, only the dim light in the corridor flickered. The two sat on their knees and fell silent for a while. After a while, Geng Chaozhong finally spoke:
"Beichuan! Where are you from Japan? β
"Kyushu."
"You say, you Japanese stay on the island so well, why do you always want to go to the mainland? In 1895 you occupied Taiwan, in 1910 you annexed Korea, two years later you took Qingdao, and last year you killed Zhang Dashuai in Northeast China. In the past 30 years, you have been so busy! β
Kitagawa was silent.
"Tanaka said in February this year that if you want to conquer China first, you must first conquer Manchu and Mongolia. Then if you want to conquer Shandong, you must first conquer Qingdao. I'm right! β
Kitagawa still didn't speak.
Because he knew that he would be beaten badly if he spoke.
"Okay, let me ask you a lighter question, has your Japanese consul in Qingdao ever come to see you?"
"Yes, but I'm a felony murderer, and it's good that I wasn't shot immediately."
"Oh? Who did you kill? Geng Chaozhong's body suddenly moved.
"Geng Sang, no, Zhang Sang, I didn't kill the Chinese, I killed a North Korean." Kitagawa Kurusuke explained in a hurry.
Geng Chaozhong stopped moving.
"Talk about it, talk about it."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After a while, Geng Chaozhong listened to Kitagawa Kurasuke's confession, and roughly figured out the reason why Kitagawa was imprisoned.
The real reason for Bukcheon's imprisonment was the assassination of Park Shin Chol, the special commissioner of the North Korean government-in-exile office in Qingdao!
After Ahn Shigeun's assassination of Ito Hirobumi in 1909, the "Isshinkai" under the Korean government-in-exile became famous and aroused extreme hatred from the Japanese.
Under the pressure of the Japanese, the Ilshinkai could no longer gain a foothold in the northeast and had to avoid Russia and establish a foothold in Vladivostok.
But on the other hand, Yixinhui also sent dead soldiers to China to operate in an attempt to expand its influence and create international influence.
Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with Geng Chaozhong, and it was the big patrol in July that caused Kitagawa Kurasuke to be arrested accidentally.
"Yes, I've been following that North Korean for more than two weeks, and the moon is dark and the wind is high, so it's a good time to kill someone, so! I infiltrated Park Shin Chol's residence! I didn't expect to just finish that guy! The patrol officers outside rushed up and caught me here! Later, I found out that it was the day before the establishment of Qingdao Special City, and all the police stations in the city patrolled 24 hours a day, and my luck was really bad! β
So said Kitagawa Kurasuke in broken Chinese.
"Who made you stop watching the news!" Geng Chaozhong slapped Beichuan with his hand, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with his position, so he immediately straightened his face:
"How dare you kill the anti-journalists! Watch and hit! β
Beichuan could only hold his head helplessly, just fight, why are you looking for so many reasons?
γγγγγγγγγγγγ
"Lok Shan Tang? Black Dragon Society? Or is it full of iron? β
Keishiro Koizumi, the Japanese consul in Qingdao, was constantly circling around in the study.
Koizumi has already declared a misunderstanding to the Chinese authorities, claiming that Geng Chaozhong, who lives in a Japanese overseas Chinese area, has mistakenly been a Japanese national. But he was always uneasy in his heart, because he really couldn't tell if it was really an accident or a mission on his side.
But he couldn't call and ask, because these systems were not subordinate to each other, and there were even quite a few contradictions. Such a public display would be tantamount to putting Date no Suke in danger.
As the Japanese consul in Qingdao, Koizumi Keiji also had a certain task of collecting intelligence, but most of them were through public activities and public information collection, and rarely participated in secret activities.
In fact, since the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Japanese have been planning to carry out large-scale espionage activities in China. The earliest one was Lok Sin Tang.
In 1879, Lok Sin Tang was established in Wuhan, a strategic city in China. They wore braids, spoke Hubei Mandarin, and began to gather intelligence under the guise of selling fine eye drops, books, and groceries. Due to the fact that it was in the First Sino-Japanese period at that time, the naval power increased greatly, and Rakuzentang was dominated by the Japanese navy for a long time.
The Black Dragon Society, on the other hand, was founded in 1901 and collaborated with Sun Yat-sen and other members of the League to plot to overthrow the Qing government, with the Japanese Army Headquarters in the background.
As for the Manchurian Railway, which was established in 1906, its full name is South Manchuria Railway Co., Ltd., and half of its shares come from the Japanese Imperial Family, which is a commercial company and secret service agency controlled by the emperor himself.
And Qingdao, a city that had both a port leading to Manchuria in the northeast, a natural harbor for the navy, and a necessary route for the Japanese army to pass through Shandong, became the center of the activities of the three parties, and the local Japanese consul, that is, Keiji Koizumi, became a rat in the splint, and was angry at both endsβno, it was angry at three ends.
So in this matter, Koizumi Keiji's performance was a little out of shape, but in the end he still strictly implemented the rules set by his predecessors: don't ask what you shouldn't ask.
Koizumi Keiji does have a reason to have a headache - although these seniors are doing a good job, but the faction is very complicated, so once something happens, it is often necessary for the local consul to come forward to coordinate, after all, between the Black Dragon Society led by the Army Headquarters, the Navy-led Leshantang, and the Imperial Family-led Manchurian Railway, the consul, the public intelligence official arranged by the government, should be the most suitable mediator!
Since no one is calling to look for it, it shouldn't be a big deal! As for Date Nosuke, it's up to him!
Good luck, Date-kun!
Koizumi Jingsi silently blessed Geng Chaozhong in his heart.
It's a pity that Geng Chaozhong and Koizumi Keiji don't have telepathy and can't receive the love waves sent by Koizumi Keiji, otherwise he would have fainted happily knowing that there was a Japanese person in the world who cared about him.
