Fukuyama Trading Co., Ltd. specializes in Japanese textiles and daily goods, and its wholesale sales channels can cover several provinces in southern China.

Of course, this is only on the surface. The Fukuyama Trading Company was an important stronghold of the Black Dragon Society in Shanghai, responsible for a series of secret activities such as collecting intelligence, winning over traitors, and cracking down on anti-Japanese activists.

Takeo Fukuyama, the general manager of Fukuyama Trading Company, is as his name suggests, with a stout body, a small hair, and stubble that stands upright like steel needles, and his eyes are wide before he speaks, looking very arrogant.

Despite this image, Fukuyama is a China expert, and he especially likes to collect Chinese art. At this time, he was in the study, perusing a painting and calligraphy that he had just bought.

"Sakai, come and see this painting."

One of Fukuyama's hobbies is to show his profound knowledge to his subordinates, especially cultural relics and calligraphy and paintings, and when those ancient allusions make his hands stunned, it is also his most complacent moment.

Sakai leaned over, looked down at the payment, it was actually a landscape painting by Dong Qichang, and hurriedly praised: "Dong Qichang, a very famous Chinese painter, is, from the Ming Dynasty, right?" ”

"Not bad." Fukuyama proudly explained: "The Essentials of Painting History" once commented that 'Dong Qichang's landscapes, trees, and stones, smoke and clouds, and full of spirit, and out of the elegant brush, the romance is the first in this dynasty'. But I think that his pen is soft, more than charming, not enough courage, and lacks momentum! ”

"His Excellency Fukuyama is really unique and admirable." Sakai hurriedly praised Fukuyama, and then said: "I observed that the person surnamed Zhou really doesn't look like a simple person. ”

Fukuyama did not answer immediately, but carefully put away the painting and put it in the safe, before slowly saying, "It's a pity that in the concession, we have a lot of scruples in our actions. If you report to the top, and you are afraid of delaying the time, let this person be aware and wait for the opportunity to run. ”

"yes!" Sakai nodded in agreement: "I heard that he took a few rare artifacts and let him go, it's a pity." ”

Fukuyama's eyes shot greedy, but he still reprimanded him seriously: "Cultural relics are secondary, and the cause of the empire is supreme." If he succeeds in raising money and supplies, the stubborn Shina forces will be like a fish in water, causing great losses to the Empire. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency is taught." Sakai nodded respectfully yes.

Fukuyama walked back and forth in his study, clogs falling to the ground with a rhythmic sound. After a while, Fukuyama stood with his hands folded in a posture unique to Japanese people, and said in a low voice, "Sakai-kun, relying on the strength of you and Ono, can you subdue this person and bring him here secretly." ”

Sakai hesitated, and after a while, he looked up and said, "I'm not sure if it's a hard touch, but we can think of an ingenious way." For example, sneak attacks, drugging...... Contemptible people have the confidence to do a good job. ”

Fukuyama pursed the corners of his mouth, nodded slightly, and said, "Then you can do it, you must be careful and not expose ......."

There was a knock on the door, and one of his men ran in in a panic.

"What's the panic?" Fukuyama glared and reprimanded.

The subordinates hurriedly stood up, trying to report to Fukuyama with a respectful demeanor: "Your Excellency, something is wrong. The people we sent to monitor were attacked, and there were heavy casualties......"

The more Fukuyama listened, the more shocked he became, his eyes wide open, and he couldn't believe it.

Seven dead, and they don't even know who the murderer is, how is this possible?

Sakai asked in a deep voice, "The one surnamed Zhou also ran away?" ”

The spy nodded and replied, "All four people who monitored the back door were killed, and the one surnamed Zhou was nowhere to be found. If you can go in and search for it, you might be able to get more clues. ”

"We can't just send someone to search." Fukuyama frowned tightly and waved his hand vigorously, "Through the patrol room, let the Japanese patrol do this." ”

The agent took the order and turned to go out.

Sakai thought for a moment, looked at Fukuyama and guessed and said, "It seems that this surname Zhou is a big fish, and in order to get him out, the opponent used a lot of strength." ”

Fukuyama lowered his eyelids, bowed his head slightly, and said, "We were careless, thinking that the manpower sent was enough." Moreover, if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to follow the vine, catch more anti-Japanese elements, and directly kidnap Zhou Qiao, he might have pried open his mouth and cracked the organization of Zhong*G by now. ”

Sakai pondered for a moment and said, "Zhou Qiao may still be in Shanghai, we have a photo of him, spread his eyeliner, and may not be able to find him again." ”

Fushan raised his head and said, "Use the forces of all parties to find and capture Zhou Qiao." Wharves and stations must be closely monitored to prevent him from escaping Shanghai. ”

"Hello!" Sakai bowed deeply and turned to leave.

…………

Whether it is non-governmental or official, Japan's intelligence agencies adhere to the government's principles and policies, and it is a long time ago for various Japanese intelligence agencies to carry out infiltration and reconnaissance against China.

Their tentacles reach to every corner of Chinese society, dignitaries, peddlers and pawns, as long as they have use value, they will deal with it.

Under the premise that the Japanese invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and due to various national reasons, during the Anti-Japanese War, it can be said that traitors were everywhere.

Under the lure of money, the temptation of personal interests, and the coercion of force, many people have become pawns in the hands of the Japanese, either for money, selfish desires, or resentment, and have betrayed the country to seek glory and willingly acted as tigers.

But this time, Fukuyama Trading Company set the target on Zhou Qiao, but it was not so simple. Whoever provides the information, who informs the secret, and what is not discovered is deadly.

Zhou Qiao probably didn't expect Shen Chen to be so hot-handed, killing seven members of the Black Dragon Society at once, making his identity suddenly important and attracting the attention of the Black Dragon Society.

But Zhou Qiao's rich experience tells him that his exposure is by no means accidental. He can't go out and contact others until he finds clues and clears the hidden dangers.

So, he just hid and notified others through the notice board that he was safe and didn't have to worry.

I don't know what the others are like, but He Xiaoyan is very anxious.

Although she saw the notice and knew that Lao Zhou was still safe. But she also wants to get in touch as soon as possible, and there are some students that she doesn't know how to deal with appropriately.

He Xiaoyan thought about it, so she had to work by herself first, and she couldn't find outsiders indiscriminately. Although she trusted Shen Chen, she couldn't tell Shen Chen the secrets of the organization.

Of course, the help to Shen Chen made her feel that she should express her gratitude.

It's just that when she called the patrol room and wanted to find Shen Chen, Shen Chen was not there.

At this time, Shen Chen was sitting in the private room of a Sichuan restaurant, waiting for the beauty leisurely!

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Chu Jiao and Dani walked in under the guidance of their buddies.

Shen Chen smiled and motioned for them to sit down, turned his head and instructed the guy, "Serve the food, hurry up." ”

"Mr. Shen is so free!" Chu Jiao asked knowingly, and asked with a smile: "It's work time, right?" ”

"I'm busy, I always have to eat lunch anyway." Shen Chen picked up the teapot and poured tea for the lady, and said, "I'm afraid that you won't be used to eating the food here after staying for a while." ”

Dani pursed the corners of her mouth, she looked very good-looking, and said with a smile: "Sichuan food, I still eat more." Just a little spicy. ”

"Then I'll have to tell the guy." Shen Chen shouted back to the guy and commanded again.

Chu Jiao's big eyes blinked, slowly drank the tea, and looked at Shen Chen with a smile.

"That, I heard Miss Chu say that Chu Tian and Miss Dani are ready to invest and develop in the United States." Shen Chen Zhengse said: "I have a friend who is also very interested in this. ”

Dani put down the tea bowl and looked at Shen Chen with an inquiring look, motioning for him to continue.

"I invite you to come today, just to say hello first, and when my friend goes to the United States, what business does he want to do, and I want to trouble you and Mr. Chu to help more." Shen Chen played with the tea bowl, "After all, they are not familiar with each other, and they don't know much about the United States." ”

"It's easy, Mr. Shen doesn't have to be polite." Dani looked indifferent, "As long as I can, I'll help." ”

The man walked in with a tray, followed by a tea-maker, carrying a large copper kettle with a slender kettle.

Shen Chen smiled faintly, knowing that it was a means used by this Sichuan restaurant to attract customers, and nodded.

The teaman placed the two tea bowls, lifted the big copper kettle in his hand high, and the hot tea filled the small gaiwan cup without a drop spilling out.

The faint aroma of tea wafted out, causing Dani to let out a low exclamation and stare curiously at the large copper kettle.

"Interesting, isn't it?" Dani pointed to the small gaiwan tea on the table, "It's taken a long time to practice this to do it, right?" ”

Chu Jiao was very unimpressed by Dani's fuss, stared at the dishes on the table and asked, "What is this, it's red, it looks very spicy." ”

Shen Chen smiled and said, "These two are slightly spicy, and the other two are slightly lighter, you can eat them together." ”

Despite Shen Chen's kind reminder, Dani's adaptability to deliciousness still surprised him.

“ok，ok！” Dini was sweating from eating, and gasped, "It's very spicy and exciting." ”

Chu Jiao also seemed to like to eat it, but she soaked the spicy dishes in the tea bowl and then put them in her mouth, which made Shen Chen despise it very much.

"I like freshness and excitement." Dani wiped her sweat with a handkerchief and said to Shen Chen with a smile: "The dull days are too boring and boring. ”

Shen Chen smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's plain, now in this year, it's a blessing to be safe!" ”

Chu Jiao had the closest relationship with Shen Chen, but she had to pretend to be an ordinary friend at the table and did not agree with Shen Chen's words.

She pouted: "Different times will always give people different lifestyles, which has nothing to do with blandness, but to live a worthwhile life." ”

Shen Chen secretly glanced at Chu Jiao, this guy is specially raising the bar with himself, and he calls you "Sister Gang".

Chu Jiao didn't care, and she didn't know that Shen Chen had given her a nickname, so she continued: "How can it be called valuable? That is, we must understand the mission and responsibility entrusted to us by the times, put everything aside to do it, and strive for it. ”

"Drink some rice wine, it tastes really good." Shen Chen poured Chu Jiao a glass of wine, and then raised his glass, taking the opportunity to occupy Chu Jiao's mouth.

Dani blinked her blue eyes, she didn't understand very much, she took a sip of wine, opened her mouth to ask, and Shen Chen had already opened her mouth to divert the topic first.

"Now that the U.S. economy is doing well, which industries do you think have a future?"

Dani thought for a moment and said, "In the United States, I don't know much about anything else, but the future of the automotive industry should be good." If the family has the conditions, buying a car is the first choice for many people. ”

Shen Chen pointed at Chu Jiao and said with a smile: "Miss Chu is an expert in the automobile industry, and the car dealership is doing a good job. This is still in Shanghai, and if you go to the United States, it will be even more powerful. ”

Deni thought so and said, "yes, I think so too. So, Ah Tian and I are ready to hire Gillian. Saying that, she turned her head and asked Chu Jiao, "Are you going to the United States together?" Aren't you sure yet? ”

Chu Jiao hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly smiled: "Yes, yes, try to walk together, the journey is not lonely, you don't have to worry." Ha ha. ”

Shen Chen had already communicated with Lu Shuang, obtained her consent, and was ready to go to the United States.

Macau is too small, although the devils will not occupy it, but it is blocked on all sides, and it is inconvenient to enter and exit, and Shen Chen does not want to hide there for several years.

But Chu Jiao also has her own plans, she is ready to continue to fulfill the mission and responsibilities given to her by that era. In other words, she will evacuate Shanghai with the students and go to the wider battlefield to fight and fight.

Of course, Shen Chen also knew this, he did not oppose it, nor did he support it, and even admired it a little.

But he had his own path, that kind of guidance that he had to follow, though it wasn't very clear yet.

After eating, Chu Jiao was going to send Dani, but Dani said that she had made an appointment with someone else, and she was nearby, stretched out her hand to call a rickshaw, and left alone.

"Take my car, I have something to tell you." Shen Chen pointed to his car, and without waiting for Chu Jiao to agree, he walked over.

Chu Jiao rolled her eyes and asked Zhao Youcai to drive back to the car shop first, and she got into Shen Chen's car.

Shen Chen drove the car, drove to a relatively secluded road, and stopped.

"In a few days, it's the Double Ten Festival, is the school going to hold an activity?" Shen Chen asked.

Chu Jiao thought for a while and said, "It seems that the vice principal of the school called me, hoping that I could participate." ”

Double Tenth Festival, whether it is Chongqing or Wang's puppet government, they must hold celebrations to flaunt their "orthodoxy".

Of course, if you engage in activities on campus, do not go to the streets, and do not engage in radicalization, the public concession will also turn a blind eye.

"I want to participate, you can arrange it." A sly smile appeared on Shen Chen's face.

Chu Jiao glanced at Shen Chen strangely, and asked suspiciously, "What do you want to do?" This time you have to tell me. I don't know where you got the beggar boy, but you don't need me, do you? ”

Shen Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not that I don't need you, but you can basically become an apprentice." That kid is too tender, I'll have to take him with me. ”

Chu Jiao snorted, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, I want to find a way." ”
