Chapter 137: The Amber Piano Girl
Early the next morning, Jiang Shuihan went out of Xunyuan, came to the inn where Hua Qinglang was temporarily staying, found Hua Qinglang, and told her the situation in Xunyuan, according to the Xunyuan provided by Cai Laoliu in the layout of the hall and the fact that ordinary guests have been prohibited from staying, as well as the situation of driving out ordinary guests, it can be determined that the high-ranking officials of the Japanese army must be staying in Xunyuan, and he also asked Hua Qinglang to immediately pretend to be a virtuoso who plays the guzheng qin and sneak into Xunyuan to cater to the love of those Japanese high-ranking officials, so as to quickly find out the owner of the southward strategic plan, and help himself when the time comes. Play it by ear. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After listening to Hua Qinglang, he didn't say a word, and after a long time, he spoke; "Okay, according to your arrangement, senior brother, I will pretend to be an artist, but I haven't played the guzheng for a long time, I don't know if the craftsmanship is unfamiliar?"
Jiang Shuihan comforted her; "Senior sister, you are talented and intelligent, and your master used to praise you often, how could you be unfamiliar with the kung fu in your hands? Don't worry, your piano sound will definitely make those high-ranking officials of the devil fascinated, a generation of talented women in Jiangnan, this is also the time for you to show your talent. ”
The enlightened disciples of Yanzimen not only practice their own kung fu diligently, but also practice chess and piano, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing music and other skills, in order to improve their own quality and cultivation, among many disciples, if you talk about painting, Hanmo Danqing, when the head of the disciple Gu Tao and Biyun Tea House Yan Hanzhu, all kinds of musical instruments, long-sleeved singing and dancing on the river cold and flower light waves, Yan Pianpian, Go chess calculation on Nie Xiaoxi.
When Hua Qinglang heard her senior brother say this, she couldn't help but have pink cheeks, and she was secretly happy, she stood up, walked to the bedside table, opened the drawer and took out a small velvet zipper bag for Jiang Shui Handao; "This is a miniature camera that the captain got from the military commander of the national army, and the captain once again told him that the strategic plan for going south must not be discovered by the senior officers of the Japanese army, otherwise they will rearrange it, and this plan will be nullified."
Jiang Shuihan took the velvet zipper bag, opened the zipper, took out the miniature camera, looked at it, and said; "The American loan, it's okay, it's smaller than my German miniature camera, it's a pity that my big and small cameras, last time Wei Chentu of the Ghost Gate and Yin Kun's Flying Eagle Hall attacked our division, and then they left in a hurry, and they didn't take it away, don't worry, I will be careful, I will definitely not let the high-ranking officials of the devil see that the strategic plan he carries has been tampered with."
Jiang Shuihan put the miniature camera into his arms, and then said lightly to the flowers; "The artist you are going to dress up now is a woman of mixed Japanese and Chinese descent, your Japanese is not bad, you should be able to fool it, I will tell you the specific situation now, and then you will immediately go to a Japanese clothing store to buy a Japanese kimono, and then I will take you to Xunyuan." After speaking, she told Hua Qinglang in detail about the role she was going to pretend to be.
Hua Qinglang is so clever and well-behaved, and she is very smart, before her brother's words are finished, she has already understood it, and she said to her brother; "Alright! My sister already understands what you mean, so you can wait for me in this room for a while, and I'll go buy a Japanese kimono. With that, he ran out of the room like a smoke.
It didn't take long for Hua Qinglang to return to the inn room with a suitcase, sit in front of the dresser mirror, dress up, and then change into Japanese women's kimonos and clogs, and live out a beautiful Japanese young girl standing in front of her.
Jiang Shuihan walked in from a room outside, raised his eyes, and suddenly opened his mouth in surprise and couldn't speak, the junior sister in front of him not only looked like a Japanese girl, but also behaved dignified and demure, and her demeanor was graceful, and the gentle beauty of oriental women was completely presented on her, but she was afraid that she would charm many Japanese.
Jiang Shuihan came to the back gate of Xunyuan with Hua Qinglang, Cai Lao Liu had been waiting for them in a long way, and when he saw Jiang Shuihan with Hua Qinglang, a beautiful and flawless Japanese woman, he was also stunned and stunned, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Jiang Shuihan hurriedly patted him and introduced him to Hua Qinglangdao; "Brother Cai, this is what I told you about my distant cousin, her name is Amber, fortunately, she was about to leave here, and was blocked by me, isn't this just here, you try her piano skills first."
Cai Lao Liu came back to his senses from his surprise and laughed; "Looking at the girl's handsome appearance, you know that her piano skills must be very high, did I say it, you are the noble lucky star of my life."
Jiang Shuihan also pointed to Cai Laoliu and introduced Hua Qinglang; "This is Sixth Brother Cai, who is in charge of daily affairs in Xunyuan."
The flower light wave bows deeply, the standard Japanese etiquette, the cherry lips are slightly opened, and the warbler sounds around the ear; "Sixth Brother Cai, please take care of me!"
Cai Laoliu leaned forward and leaned back with a smile, and hurriedly reached out to take the suitcase in Hua Qinglang's hand; "Please come to the garden and talk, my dwarf son-in-law is also here at this time, the girl will please play a song or two casually, let them appreciate it, my dwarf son-in-law is also Japanese, he will not embarrass the girl."
Jiang Shuihan said to Cai Lao Liudao; "Brother Cai, I brought it to you, it's up to you whether it will be successful or not, if not, let my cousin out earlier, don't delay her journey back to Suzhou, it's not convenient for me to come forward, I'll leave." With that, he arched his fist goodbye, and then turned to leave.
Hua Qinglang looked at his cousin reluctantly, looking hesitant.
Cai Laoliu took care of Jiang Shuihan at this time, holding a suitcase in one hand, and hurriedly pulling Hua Qinglang with the other hand to urge; "Girl, let's go into the garden, your cousin is not leaving, he doesn't live in this Xun garden, he will go to see you when he is free."
Cai Lao Liu pulled Hua Qinglang into Xun Garden, and the Japanese guarding the gate knew that Cai Lao Liu was the father-in-law of the owner of the Chamber of Commerce.
Xun garden inside is really spacious and grand, there are lawns everywhere, trimmed neatly, green grass, rich trees, all kinds of flowers planted with buds blooming, gorgeous and colorful, all kinds of fake stone mountain shapes, fountains are spraying, there is a small stream river through the middle, carved arch bridge, there are water pavilions and corridors built on the bank of the river, for visitors to watch, full of Suzhou garden style, please the eye.
Two people across the carved arch bridge, from the back garden around to the front garden of the main building, the main building is also the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China style, the doors and windows are hollow carving, simple and elegant, arrived at the second floor of the hall, the hall has been furnished, there are a lot of sofas around the table, the brocade curtain hanging on the ground, there is a one-foot-high platform in the middle, there is a guzheng piano on it, soft leather round stool, the platform is full of flowers on both sides.
Hua Qinglang saw it in his eyes, and his mind was racing; It can be seen that all the decorations in the hall are arranged for the high-ranking officials who have come to love the guzheng qin, which shows that this high-ranking official has a prominent status and must be in an important position, maybe he is the presiding officer of the high-level military meeting of the Japanese army in Yuxi County this time, and the strategic plan for going south should be in the hands of this senior official, and she has to admire the vision and insight of her senior brother.
In the hall, several people in Japanese kimonos stood together, watching the servants busily decorate the hall, Cai Lao Liu put down the suitcase, walked over and talked to a few Japanese for a while, several Japanese turned their heads, and all their eyes were fixed on Hua Qinglang.
Cai Laoliu hurriedly beckoned to Hua Qinglang, signaling her to go over, Hua Qinglang stepped on the small broken steps unique to Japanese women, bowed his head, came to a few Japanese, and bowed deeply to a few Japanese.
Among the several Japanese, there was a Japanese man who was not tall and had a Rendan beard, and kept looking up and down at the Japanese kimono girl in front of him, and asked in a somewhat stiff Chinese; "Girl, you say you are Japanese, how can you live in the Chinese people?" It seems that he is the dwarf son-in-law of Cai Laoliu, and he is also the head of the Chamber of Commerce in charge of this Xunyuan.
Hua Qinglang raised his head, his eyes were full of anticipation, and he replied crisply; "My Chinese name is Amber, my Japanese name is Sakurako Chomoto, my father is Japanese, my mother is from Suzhou, China, I was born in Ishikawa Prefecture on the Okunoto Peninsula in southern Japan, I didn't follow my parents to China until I was eight years old, I lived in Suzhou City, until three years ago, our family of three moved to Nanjing City, but who would have thought that soon after arriving in Nanjing City, I encountered our Imperial Japanese Army attacking Nanjing City, my parents died under the bombing of the plane, and the home was also blown up, and all identity documents and overseas Chinese relocation procedures were goneWe had just arrived in Nanjing, where we had no acquaintances, no relatives, and I had also asked the Japanese authorities about my identity and experience, but the authorities kept saying that they were waiting for an investigation, so I had no choice but to return to Suzhou City. ”
Another Japanese lamented in Japanese; "This girl's background is so pitiful! Her father is my great Japanese, and her blood is in the blood of my Yamato nation, so she should be my great Japanese and should take care of her. ”
The dwarf Japanese with the beard of Rindan became kind to the haze, and said lightly to the flower in Japanese; "Miss Sakurako, you said that you can play the guzheng qin, here is the guzheng qin, you play a song for us to appreciate, if you are qualified, we will retain you and give you a good salary."
Hua Qinglang bowed again and replied in fluent Japanese; "Thank you, for your kind attention! The little woman is ugly. After speaking, he walked straight to the platform, sat down on the soft leather round bench behind the guzheng, put on his finger covers, gently expressed his ten fingers, and unhurriedly adjusted the strings a few times, and then played a Japanese song 'The Ballad of Sakura'.
The sound of the piano is loud and loud, the strings are undulating and staggered, and the sound of the piano is beautiful and exciting, and several Japanese can't help but dance with her hands and feet.
After playing the song, Hua Qinglang walked off the platform, a little shy, timidly looking at a few Japanese.
"Yo Si! The flower girl is very beautiful, and the piano is also played beautifully, which is very good. "Several Japanese praised one after another, and the short Japanese stretched out their hands and raised their thumbs in praise;" The sound of the piano is so beautiful, it is worthy of being the daughter of my Yamato nation, and this is also the most beautiful sound of the piano that I heard for the first time when I came to China, compared to the sound of the piano played by those Chinese artists is more than a thousand times, we will retain you, and the salary will be doubled. After speaking, he turned his head to Cai Lao Liudao;" My father-in-law has only really done some practical things in the past two days, yo Xi! Immediately take Miss Sakura to rest, arrange the room where she lives, and then go to the tent to advance Miss Sakura's twenty oceans. ”
Another Japanese also diligently said to the flowers; "Miss Sakura lives here with peace of mind, she doesn't go there, if she needs anything, just ask Mr. Cai."
Cai Lao Liu happily lifted the suitcase and walked out of the hall with Hua Qinglang to lead the ocean and arrange Hua Qinglang's accommodation.
The shops in the county town of Yuxun County were notified by the Japanese military police headquarters to greet the Japanese Imperial Army troops from Suzhou at the east gate of the city in the morning.
A series of large military trucks pulled infantry field guns into the city gate, followed by the Japanese commanders riding tall horses, there were several black cars sandwiched in the middle, and then the soldiers carrying bayonets and spears walked into the city gate majestically.
The Japanese troops drove straight into the garrison barracks of the city garrison, but the black cars drove into the compound of the gendarmerie headquarters, where the commander of the gendarmerie, Nojima Daisa, the head of the Kitakuraoka section of the Special High Division, and all the Japanese commanders under his command were already waiting.
The car stopped one after another, and out of the car came out of the light gold collar badges, and the senior Japanese officers with ribbons on their shoulders, Nojima, Kitakuraoka and others hurriedly greeted them, saluted those senior officers, and expressed their greetings.
On the roof of a high-rise house far away from the military police headquarters, there was a person lying on the roof who was observing everything in the compound of the military police headquarters with a telescope in his hand, and this person was Jiang Shuihan.
Among the senior officers of the Japanese army was a slightly chubby, well-groomed officer, and everyone respected him, and it seemed that he had the highest rank among these senior officers, so everyone was submissive to him, and there was a junior officer beside him, young and mighty, carrying a dark brown briefcase with a pair of handcuffs attached to his wrist.
At the military police headquarters that greeted him, a young female general came out of the officers of the special high class, stepped forward to hold the hand of the slightly chubby general, bowed and saluted; "General, it's been hard all the way, Fangzi has been waiting for you for a long time!" This female general is Yoshiko Yokohama, the commander of the Major General Brigade of the Yokohama Brigade in the Tsukameng region.
The chubby general replied happily; "Alas, it's General Fangzi, I haven't seen you for a long time, General Fangzi is still so young and energetic." He is the deputy chief of staff of the base camp of the Japanese army's southward dispatch army, General Saiteng, who enjoys a high honor in the Japanese military circles, and he is also a subordinate of Yokohama Yoshiko's father-in-law, General Minami Tatoshi, the commander-in-chief of the southward dispatch army, Yokohama Yoshiko followed his father-in-law to conquer the Manchurian and Mongolian regions in China, and also fought against the Soviet army on the Sino-Soviet border, so Yokohama Yoshiko is naturally very familiar with General Saiteng.
Jiang Shuihan hurriedly silently wrote down the appearance of the chubby general and the junior officer with the briefcase he was carrying in the binoculars, if his guess was right, the dark brown briefcase should contain the southward strategic plan, this slightly chubby senior general of the Japanese army held a high-level military meeting in the county town of Yuxun, which was to convey the goal and purpose of the southward strategic plan, so the accompanying adjutant carried the bag of the plan and connected his wrist with handcuffs, that is, he would rather break his hand, and even sacrifice his life to protect the plan. But there are also some practices that do not have three hundred taels of silver here, which undoubtedly exposes the location of the plan.
There were also some senior officers of the Japanese army headquarters in Nanjing and senior officers of the Japanese military headquarters in Jiangsu and Xijiang, but most of them were some chiefs of staff, or staff officers, only the Japanese commanders in Suzhou and Hangzhou were division commanders and came with them in person, but their military ranks were only lieutenant generals, slightly higher than Yokohama Yoshiko, but they knew the relationship between Yokohama Yoshiko and their supreme commander, General Nan Tatoshi, and also knew Yokohama Yoshiko's remarkable achievements, and they had great respect for her, others such as Zhenjiang, The commanders of the Japanese army in Ningbo were all only wing commanders, and only General Zhai Teng had the highest rank of general, and these high-ranking Japanese officers all expressed their satisfaction with the warm reception of the regional officers.
Yokohama, Nojima, Kitakuraoka and all the Japanese officers from the prefecture of Yumu surrounded General Saiten and the senior officers who had come into the military police headquarters.
The conference hall of the headquarters was already full of sofas, piled with fresh fruits and large plates of cut watermelons, the top of the conference hall was covered with thin ropes and colorful strips, and the corners of the house were also full of flowers.
