The 28th year of the Republic of China, September. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression had entered a white-hot stage, Wang Jingwei surrendered to the enemy and treason, established a puppet government, and established No. 76 Gisfield Road. At the same time, the central government of Yan'an received a telegram from the local guerrillas that the Japanese were carrying a large number of innocent civilians and international journalists on the Sakura cruise ship bound for Shanghai, and that the Japanese were trying to transport these people as war victims to Shanghai to set up a comfort station. As soon as this news came out, the central leadership paid attention to it, and immediately ordered the activation of the ace spy ghost team to find out the truth......

Shanghai, Lan Agency.

"Handsome man! Something happened! Hideko got on the Sakura ship by mistake! Katsuhei Yamaguchi hurried to the office of Toshio Yoshida, the head of the Lan Agency in Shanghai, a graduate of the Army University, and the second son of Eisuke Yoshida, commander of the Shanghai Dispatch Army.

Toshio Yoshida sat behind his desk, looked at his flustered expression, and laughed: "Katsuhei, I know you miss my sister day and night, aren't you on the wrong boat?" What does it matter if you arrive a few days late? ”

Katsuhei Yamaguchi shook his head and said anxiously, "Handsome, do you know the origin of the Sakura?" ”

Toshio Yoshida shook his head blankly.

"That's the ship of the comfort regiment! Whoever gets on the ship will be killed by men, and women will be forced to become comfort women! ”

"What!" Toshio Yoshida looked stunned, then stood up and asked urgently, "Does my father know about this?" ”

At the mention of this, Katsuhei Yamaguchi frowned, and said indignantly: "The commander has decided to let Hideko sacrifice herself for the empire for the sake of the holy war. ”

"How could he do that!" Toshio Yoshida slammed his fist on the table, and the warm tea in his cup splashed.

He immediately dialed the office of the head of the gendarmerie, and a deep man's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, I'm Ichiro Yoshida." ”

"Brother! I'm a handsome man, please come to me, I have something important to discuss with you! ”

"What can't you say on the phone?"

"It's good that you come over quickly, it's very important!"

"Got it, I'll go over right away."

The phone was put down, and Toshio Yoshida's heart had not yet calmed down, but there was a report from Adjutant Kazuya Suzuki outside.

"The head of the reporting organ has just captured two communists, and according to insider information, one of them is an instructor of the communist party."

At this time, Toshio Yoshida was in no mood to pay attention to other things, he was anxious, and his mind echoed his mother's earnest entrustment when he was dying: You must protect your sister well.

He looked gloomy and waved his hand impatiently: "Got it, you go down first!" ”

Suzuki Kazuya looked at a loss, since the establishment of the Lan agency in Shanghai, this is the first time that such a big fish has been caught, but why doesn't the director of the agency have any joy, is it ...... What's wrong? He looked at Katsuhei Yamaguchi, who was standing aside, helplessly, "Hayi!" With a bang, he turned and left......

Toshio Yoshida fidgeted around the room, not daring to think about the terrible outcome, not daring to think about what would happen to his sister in the future.

The two men in the room were silent, and the clock on the wall ticked...... Tick...... Suddenly, his grandfather's resolute figure appeared in his mind!

His grandfather, Mitsuhiro Fukuyama, the current acting prime minister of Japan, is in charge of the cabinet, and he will definitely rescue his sister!

Thinking of this, his messy thoughts were able to be placed, but his heart still couldn't be calmed, and he couldn't sleep and eat without seeing his sister for a day.

"Handsome, what the hell happened?"

A low, magnetic voice came from the door, and a man in his early thirties walked in, Yoshida Ichiro, the captain of the Japanese gendarmerie in Shanghai, the eldest son of Yoshida Eisuke, his face was elegant and delicate, but it didn't match the cold military uniform on his body.

"Big brother, you're finally here!" Toshio Yoshida pulled him to sit on the sofa and said anxiously, "Hideko has an accident!" ”

"What's wrong with Hideko?" "She mistakenly boarded the Sakura, the ship that transported comfort women, and my father agreed to sacrifice his sister for the sake of this damn war!"

"How could he do this!" Yoshida Ichiro stood up and was about to go to his father to theorize, but was stopped by Katsuhei Yamaguchi, who was standing aside.

"Ichiro, it's in vain for you to go to him like this, it's better for us to think of a way to get both."

"Brother, I have thought of a solution." Toshio Yoshida pulled him back on the couch again and said quietly.

Yoshida Ichiro looked at him with an angry face: "What way?" ”

"We can call Tokyo, tell my grandfather, and ask for his help."

"That's right! I didn't think of that! ”

"But ......," Katsuhei Yamaguchi said wistfully, "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple, and there must be nothing the acting prime minister can do at this time." ”

"Oh? Why? Yoshida Ichiro asked anxiously and suspiciously.

Katsuhei Yamaguchi sighed: "There are not only our local women, but also international journalists on the Sakura, and I don't know who has leaked this matter, I received a top-secret telegram in the confidential room, which was sent by the commander's internal pigeon, which said that the Communist Party top brass had learned about it and sent an ace spy ghost to try to rescue it." ”

"Ghosts? It seems that things are not so simple, is Hideko really going to be more auspicious and less lucky? ”

"Not necessarily ......" Toshio Yoshida suddenly thought of what Suzuki had just reported in his mind, and a thought flashed through his mind like lightning: "We have just captured two communists, one of whom is still their instructor, and they have come to Shanghai at this time to risk their danger, and I am afraid that they have come to Shanghai for this matter." ”

"Could it be that you want to rescue Hideko with the help of the Communist Party?" Yoshida Ichiro reminded worriedly: "If it is known, then you will definitely go to court-martial!" ”

"Brother! In order to save my sister, what if I am asked to die? Brother, don't forget, we all promised our mother that we would protect my sister."

Yoshida Ichiro thought of his poor sister and his mother, and nodded helplessly: "Okay, for the sake of my sister, we can only take this risky move." ”

After getting his brother's approval, Toshio Yoshida turned his head to look at Katsuhei Yamaguchi with a calm face: "Katsuhei, are you willing to help us?" ”

"Of course! Hideko is my fiancée! Katsuhei Yamaguchi nodded heavily.

"Well, you are good at Chinese, just go with us!"

"Okay."

The old chandelier creaks...... Squeaked back and forth, the dim light flickered on and off with the swaying of the dropped line, like a struggle of consciousness, a hovering between right and wrong. The charcoal fire is burning slowly, and on the wall, the four words "washing the heart and leather" are so conspicuous, as if they are reflecting the cold and ruthless torture instruments displayed in the house.

"Bring the communist instructors here." As soon as Toshio Yoshida and the others walked into the interrogation room, they couldn't wait for the adjutant Suzuki Kazuya to bring the prisoner up.

Soon, with the screeching sound of shackles hitting the ground, a middle-aged man in a gray robe was brought in.

"Suzuki, you and the others go down!"

"Hayi!" Kazuya Suzuki frowned strangely, but still obeyed the order and retreated.

"You...... Is it the instructor of the Communist Party? Katsuhei Yamaguchi walked up to the man tied to the torture rack and asked in a deep voice.

The instructor glanced at him coldly, but did not speak.

Yamaguchi Katsuping smiled faintly: "The accomplice who was arrested with you just now has already confessed, your name is Jiang Chen, you are an instructor of the military region, and this mission is to rescue journalists from various countries, do you still need me to continue?" I advise you to confess yourself! There may be a silver lining. ”

Jiang Chen was silent for a long time, and a sneer appeared on his scarred face: "Since you all already know, why do you want to ask me?" I'm very curious, you Japanese are not human at all, you have never spared even your own women, and you are treated like animals, what is the difference between you and animals? ”

Syllable!

Jiang Chen's eyes were full of stars, half of his face was red and swollen, and his mouth was full of a strong smell of blood.

Katsuhei Yamaguchi glared at him angrily and said, "Yaga! You are not allowed to insult our Imperial Japan! ”

"Stop!" Yoshida Toshio scolded, and then looked at Jiang Chen with a gloomy face: "Can you really rescue the women on the ship?" ”

"What? Director Yoshida is also concerned about this matter? Jiang Chen hooked his lips sarcastically: "No, the captain also has relatives on the ship, right?" As far as I know, in addition to international reporters on board the Sakura, there seem to be many wives and daughters of high-ranking Japanese officials, and the morale of the people is disheartened, and Japan's defeat in the war is doomed. ”

"What! The wife and daughter of a high-ranking official? Yoshida Ichiro roared angrily: "Yamamoto, this guy is really crazy! ”

"It's not that he's crazy, it's this damn war that turns people into madmen." Toshio Yoshida looked sad and whispered. Of course, he wouldn't let Jiang Chen hear these words, no matter what, if these words reached other people's ears, it would not be good for him.

Yamaguchi Katsuhei looked at Jiang Chen meaninglessly and said, "Can you really rescue the people on the boat?" ”

"What do you think?" Jiang Chen smiled coldly, didn't say much, closed his eyes and recuperated.

Brother Yoshida looked at him with confidence and was silent for a long time. The country and family affection are struggling in the depths of the soul, if they choose the country, then now as long as the instructor in front of them is sent to the headquarters, then the two brothers will make meritorious contributions and be appreciated by their father and the country. But in this way, the younger sister will never come back, and they will be tantamount to breaking their promise to their mother.

On the contrary, if you choose family affection, then you need to find a way to steal the dragon and send this instructor out! And in this way, they also betrayed the country and betrayed the emperor.

After hesitating for a long time, in the end, they decided that for the sake of their sister, they could only choose to betray and let go of the little hope they had......

The next day, in the morning, the sun was beautiful and windy.

In the Han Bookstore on Renmin Road in Nancheng District, a man wearing a black top hat and a black stand-up collar windbreaker walked to the counter and asked in a low and hoarse voice: "Hello, is there a Dream of Red Mansions by Wu Chengen?" ”

"Sir, Wu Chengen wrote Journey to the West, and Dream of Red Mansions was written by Cao Xueqin."

"Is there a Water Margin in Luo Guanzhong?"

"Sir, you are wrong again, Luo Guanzhong wrote the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and the Water Margin was written by Shi Nai'an."

"Oh...... Then give me a set of Robben's Romance of the Three Kingdoms! ”

"Sir, I'm sorry, this version is long gone, and even the wool book has been out of stock, but our boss still has a set, it's a little old, if you don't mind, please come with me." ”

"Okay."

The second floor of the bookstore.

"Boss, there's a guest coming." Pushing open the door, a back figure stood at the window, and when he heard the voice, he quickly turned his head, and it was Jiang Chen in the prison!

"Welcome back, Ghost Two."

The man in the trench coat shook his hand excitedly and said, "Teacher, I finally waited for the organization to wake up." ”

The two sat on the stool, and the man in the trench coat said in a deep voice: "I heard that you were imprisoned in the Lan Agency, I was really anxious to save you at all costs, but in the end, considering my identity, I hesitated. Thankfully, you managed to escape the cave. "You're doing the right thing, you can't be an agent with emotion. That's right! This time, the central government sent me here mainly for two things. The first is to find out the movements of the Sakura and find a way to rescue the international journalists. The second is for the hidden list of agents of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. ”

"Why, the list of undercover personnel fell into the hands of the Japanese?"

"No, our inside line in Tokyo replied that the man was already in hiding and waiting to connect with someone from Tokyo. Moreover, I heard that the people who joined the joint have already set off for Shanghai. When the time comes, you must find out as much as possible about his whereabouts and take the opportunity to reclaim the list. ”

"Don't worry, teacher, I will definitely complete the task!"

Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction, and the sunlight outside the window gradually brightened as the clouds passed, exuding a dazzling and dazzling light, warming this isolated island......
