Chapter 224: Receiving the Mission, the Soul Scattered

The county seat of Lin'an County. Fang's compound, the headquarters of the Japanese army. Front yard living room.

"Someone!" Eichi Nakagawa shouted and walked back to the couch and sat down.

"Captain, please admonish." Takagi Hirochi asked after walking into the living room and bowing.

"Takagi-kun, have you been notified of the representatives from all walks of life who will participate in the Japan-China Goodwill Talks and the Japan-Chinese Exchange Meeting to be held tomorrow morning at the National Model High School in Lin'an County?"

"Report to the co-captain, the meeting invitation has been sent to the delegates attending the meeting. In addition, they all signed the receipts for attending the meeting. ”

"Well, good. Go down. ”

Soon after Takagi Hiroshi left, Qian Wanlin, the captain of the detective team, hurriedly walked to the door of the living room, took off his straw top hat, straightened his legs together, and shouted loudly: "Report!" ”

"Captain Qian, please come in." Sakae Nakagawa responded gently and politely.

"Yes!" Qian Wanlin pushed the door and walked into the living room, walked in front of Nakagawa Rongyi, nodded and said, "Taijun, what are your instructions for calling the lowly to come over?" As long as you say it, I can do it, and I will never hesitate to be loyal to the Imperial Army and to you, the Captain of the Wing. ”

"Okay, enough friends. Captain Qian, you're going to be promoted and make a fortune again. ”

"Oh? That's great. Then please tell Taijun to show me the humble position. ”

"Captain Qian, I've read all the information you sent me, and I've studied it in depth, it's good. These materials have given me a full and detailed understanding of all the situations in the western Hebei region, especially in the border areas of Hebei, and have been of great help to me and the imperial army. Captain Qian, I am very satisfied with your work, which is enough to prove your loyalty to the Imperial Army. Now, there is a simple and easy, small thing for you to do, which is the plan of action, and you can look at it carefully. With that, Eiichi Nakagawa picked up a piece of paper from the coffee table and held it up.

Qian Wanlin walked over with a smile on his face, and took the action plan with both hands with a smile on his face. However, when Qian Wanlin finished reading it, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning, his head was dizzy, and he was even more frightened and scattered, and then he was sweating and trembling slightly. He tugged at his cuffs and wiped the sweat on his head, face, and neck to force himself to calm down, not allowing Nakagawa Eiichi to see the clues. At the same time, Qian Wanlin's thirty-six hearts and eyes and seventy-two reels immediately started to turn quickly and think of ideas. He muttered to himself: Is this a simple and easy, small thing? Sensei said that I was going to be promoted and make a fortune again, and it is hard to say whether I can save my life? Didn't I let myself go and find my own death? You are a vicious way of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle, digging up roots and destroying seeds, you can do it so ruthlessly and absolutely, I can't, I don't dare. No, that's something you can't do. However, if you don't do it, you will be disobeying the orders of the imperial army, and you will be removed from your post for investigation or executed on the spot. If I do it, what money and benefits will I get? Can I save face? Alas! What a dilemma to go or not! How can we deal with the past now? How can I escape this catastrophe unharmed? In this way, I'll deal with it first and try to test the ghost grandson of Nakagawa Eiichi, and see what bad ideas are still holding back? Qian Wanlin blinked his eyelids, rolled his eyes, raised his head and said:

"Taijun is clever, really clever, this plan of action is too good, it should have been done a long time ago. The detective team has an unshirkable responsibility to take the lead. However, Taijun, you know and know best, the detective team is now weak and understaffed, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to do it. Taijun, such an important operation should be carried out by a strong military police. ”

Nakagawa Eiichi knew the true intentions of Qian Wanlin's statement and knew it well, he looked at Qian Wanlin and smiled disdainfully, and still said gently and politely:

"Oh? Is it weak and understaffed? No, the real situation I learned is that the detective team has been recruiting and expanding its personnel, and the imperial army has allocated funds, materials, vehicles, weapons and ammunition to the detective team. Now how can you still say that the strength is weak and the manpower is insufficient? Captain Qian, are you too scared to accept the mission? Didn't you just say that? I must be loyal to the imperial army and me, and I have the responsibility to take the lead. How? Do you dare to say empty words and big things to me? ”

"No, no, absolutely not. Taijun, that's what happened. The members of the detective team are all local children of their hometown, and they know and even know many families in the county. Therefore, I am afraid that the members of the team will be merciful and merciful in the execution of this mission, which will delay the great plan of the imperial army. Besides, the main task of the detective team is to detect and arrest the secret agents of the Communist Eighth Route Army and the military command. And the gendarmerie is the most appropriate. You say yes. ”

"Hmm. Captain Qian, what you say makes sense. However, the gendarmerie had another important task and could not send troops. This operation will be carried out by your detective team independently, and it must be successfully completed. Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while. Otherwise, what is the use of the imperial army paying money and guns to feed so many of you? ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Taijun, it's not that I shirk my responsibility, and it's not that I don't dare. This task should be carried out by the police department, they are much more familiar with the things on the street than our detective team, and they know where to go. And the main energy and task of our detective team should still be on the search and arrest* and military command, which cannot be slackened and relaxed......"

"No, I can't. The duties and tasks of the police department are only responsible for maintaining public order inside and outside the county seat of Lin'an County, managing household registration, and detecting theft, robbery, fighting, and neighborhood disputes. The weapons and equipment of the police department are not up to this task. ”

"Yes, yes, Taijun, you are so right, I don't understand it if you don't say it, I understand it all when you say it. Otherwise, please send a few men from the gendarmerie and the police station to join forces with our detective team, and this will be a great force and deterrent to complete this mission successfully. ”

"Well, okay. I'll send you a few men from the gendarmerie and the police station. Nakagawa Rongyi stood up and walked in front of Qian Wanlin, his eyes were gloomy, and he said in a fierce tone: "Captain Qian, you have heard and remembered for me, the two outstanding imperial soldiers and imperial warriors who are responsible for monitoring the special high class of the Fang family compound have disappeared out of thin air, I have not held you accountable and punished, and you have not found any clues for me until now, I will give you a few more days." However, in this operation, you can no longer make mistakes, and if someone cares about their personal feelings, is merciful, and shows mercy to their subordinates, you must be shot on the spot immediately! No mercy! There is a great reward for completing the task, and there will be heavy punishments for failing to complete the task, and the old and new accounts will be counted together, and even shot! Captain Qian, let's start tomorrow afternoon! Go ahead! ”

"Yes! Accept the order and resolutely carry it out! Qian Wanlin bowed after putting down the action plan, turned around and put on a top hat, staggered out of the living room with weak legs, and muttered dissatisfiedly as he walked: I'll go to your uncle's, aren't you pushing me into the fire pit? My Qian Wanlin's reputation is about to be ruined by you, and even my life is difficult to protect.

Nakagawa Eiichi stood at the door of the living room, looked at Qian Wanlin's departing back with contempt, and scolded viciously in his heart: Hmph! Greedy for money and lustful, timid and afraid of death, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, the scum of the Chinese! It is a great sorrow and shame for my dignified officer of the Imperial Japanese Army to work with such a snobbish! Hum! He knew that he could not be trusted or used, but he still had to enslave these people. Alas! Is there any reason why this war is undefeated? Bullshit jihad! Bullshit conquers China's Greater East Asia, coexistence and co-prosperity!

Liu Guangxiong, the puppet county magistrate of Lin'an County, walked by Qian Wanlin in the courtyard with a black briefcase in his left hand, he glanced at Qian Wanlin, who had always been arrogant and rude to him, but at this time he was sad, depressed, and staggering, and walked quickly to Nakagawa Eiichi who was standing at the door of the living room, bent down and bowed, straightened up and asked:

"Captain, is there anything you summoned for the lowly position?" When Liu Guangxiong saw Qian Wanlin's expression and appearance in the courtyard just now, he already realized that it was not a good thing to come to the Japanese army headquarters today, and it was unpredictable. Moreover, Eiichi Nakagawa rarely informed himself that he had to come in person. Anything is usually done by phone or by paperwork. What's going on today? Is there anything important and big? Liu Guangxiong was uneasy, and the more he thought about it, the more terrible he felt.

"County Magistrate Liu, I've been waiting for you for a long time, please come in, please take a seat."

"Taijun doesn't have to be polite. Taijun, you first, you first, you first. ”

Eiichi Nakagawa and Liu Guangxiong walked back and forth to the sofa and sat down. Eiichi Nakagawa sat on the couch facing the main seat at the door, and Liu Guangxiong sat on the single sofa on the left side of Eiichi Nakagawa with courtesy and humor to show the level of his position and his dignity.

Nakagawa Eiichi's politeness to the Chinese, especially the Chinese working for the Japanese army, who was rarely polite at this time, could not help but make Liu Guangxiong tremble.

"County Magistrate Liu, how has your work been in the recent past? There's a lot of progress, right? Can you tell me about it? Eiichi Nakagawa asked with a smile and concern.

"Ouch, Taijun, you are too polite. Actually, I always wanted to come over and report to Taijun in person, but I was afraid of disturbing you, so I didn't dare to come rashly. Liu Guangxiong's brain and scheming turned sharply: Huh? Is he going around the bend or is he trying to seduce me? Or is it to pretend to be polite and polite first, and then to lure you into the urn? Alas! If you eat other people's food, you have to be managed by others, act when you see the opportunity, see the tricks, and if you can get through the tricks, that's the best, if you can't do it, you can pretend to be stupid and sloppy with him, and in the end, if you can't do it, you can only disobey the yang and the yin. Liu Guangxiong sat at the front of the sofa with half his buttocks, leaned forward, pressed his hands on his knees, and put on a humble and docile look, with a smile on his face that he felt awkward and unnatural. Liu Guangxiong looked at Nakagawa Eiichi who was leaning back on the sofa and continued respectfully: "Yes, yes. Since its establishment, the county government has made great progress in all aspects of its work under the cordial care and direct guidance of the wing commander, and it can be said that it has made remarkable achievements. Today, I have brought you a detailed report on my work for the Wing Commander to review and provide valuable guidance. After speaking, Liu Guangxiong took out a thick work report from his briefcase and respectfully placed it on the coffee table in front of Nakagawa Eiichi.

"Okay, okay. County Magistrate Liu, I must read it carefully. It seems that I didn't see the wrong person or use the wrong person. I have reason to believe that under the leadership of County Magistrate Liu, Lin'an County will certainly be built into a model public security county of goodwill, friendship, coexistence and common prosperity between Japan and China at an early date. ”

"Taijun has won too many awards, and he really doesn't dare to be a lowly officer. All achievements and honors belong to you and the warriors of the imperial army, and I am just an insignificant pawn. ”

"Well, let's not say any more about humility and politeness. County Magistrate Liu, I have asked you to come for an interview today for the purpose of this matter, and you should carefully read this action plan and implement it as soon as possible. Nakagawa Eiichi said, pointing to a piece of paper on the coffee table.

Liu Guangxiong leaned over and picked up the action plan to take a closer look. After a while, after reading it, Liu Guangxiong's face suddenly changed, his face was like dust, he stood up suddenly, trembling all over his body and exclaiming:

"Huh?! This? This ......"
