Chapter Ninety-Six: Code Name Shaman (Part I)
Harbin, Special Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army.
Maeda Masaji looked at the three newspapers that Jun Cao had just sent in surprise, and each newspaper without exception had a headline on the front page with the news of "Langang's strange incident", and nothing else was written on the news, but it was written that a large number of people with unknown identities had appeared at the Langang Station in Mudanjiang and were still unconscious.
After reading the newspaper, Maeda asked Juncao, "Do you publish it in other newspapers?" ”
Jun Cao said: "I'm asking someone to collect." ”
Maeda Masaji said, "Wait and send all the other newspapers you have collected to General Miyake's office!" ”
With that, Maeda Masaji hurried out of the office with the three newspapers.
When Masaji Masaki knocked on the door of Kyoji Miyake's office, he found Kyoji Miyake standing at the window looking out, and several newspapers already on his desk.
"General!" Masaji Maeda stepped forward with a newspaper and said, "Did you see the news?" ”
Kyoji Miyake nodded slightly: "Of course." ”
Maeda Masaji said: "We have been calculated, if we don't hurry up and get Tang Qianlin and them back from General Ishihara, I don't know what else will happen." ”
Kyoji Miyake shook his head: "Now I go to ask for someone, just in the middle of it, Kenji Ishihara is waiting for me to come to ask for someone." ”
Masaji Maeda wondered, "What do you mean?" ”
Kyoji Miyake said: "He used the Hongtutun incident to contain us, and when the special train of the secret search division went to Langang Station, he mobilized the local police and the Manchukuo Defense Force, and the news has spread. Later, because we had to carry out the Prajna project, we also went to Langang Station. At this time, he quietly went to Hongtutun, did what he wanted to do, and then destroyed all the evidence, left with Tang Qianlin and others, and at the same time threw those unconscious people at Langang Station, even if nothing was clearly written in the newspaper, the police of the Langang Police Station, and the Manchukuo Defense Forces involved in the operation would also spread the news, and now, everyone knows that this matter has something to do with us, and has nothing to do with him Ishihara Kenji. ”
Maeda Masaji said: "However, so many people were transported to Langang Station by Kenji Ishihara, and the police and Manchukuo soldiers at Langang Station are also obvious to all!" ”
Kyoji Miyake shook his head and said, "We are all Kwantung Army, for those policemen and Manchukuo soldiers, are they clearly distinguished?" They will subconsciously think that the people who brought them out of Hongtutun are the people of our special intelligence department and the secret search department, and now both the civilian and military departments will focus on me and put pressure on me. ”
Maeda Masaji said: "It seems that General Ishihara's purpose in the first place was to let us be noticed? ”
Kyoji Miyake sat back at his desk: "That's right, that's what he did." It is normal for the military department to pay attention to us, but if the government and the people of Manchukuo are paying attention to us, then it will be very difficult for us to do what we have to do next, and he is using this method to contain us. The military headquarters would ask me what was going on, and if I told the truth, that Ishihara guy would confront me and ask me how his soldiers died......"
Maeda Masaji was puzzled: "In this way, we are trapped by General Ishihara and are in a dilemma. ”
Kyoji Miyake said: "You go down, now our focus is still on the Prajna plan, you are responsible for giving Kubo Tiandao all the necessary support, as long as the Pranya plan is successful, the rest is not a problem." ”
When Maeda Masaji was about to say something, Kyoji Miyake raised his hand and waved, signaling him to leave.
Maeda Masaji bowed and left, and after closing the office door, Kyoji Miyake looked at the phone next to him and grabbed it: "Switchboard, please give me the security number 9." ”
The phone was quickly connected, and the voice of the man codenamed Chonghu came: "General." ”
Kyoji Miyake took a deep breath and asked, "You also saw the newspaper, right?" ”
Chonghu said: "Yes, I saw it, the overwhelming news, as far as I know, the Mudanjiang Local Security Bureau has begun to investigate this matter." ”
Miyake Kyoji said: "That's on the boundary of the Mudanjiang River, if I intervene directly, it will be very troublesome, I want to hear what you mean." ”
Chonghu said: "General, this matter is far from being as simple as it seems, I believe that the person who Kenji Ishihara took away from the secret search class is only part of the plan, and the person he wants to use the secret search class is another part of the plan, to put it bluntly, I think that there is also a person behind General Ishihara who is helping him." ”
Kyoji Miyake was nervous when he heard this, and he squeezed the phone receiver and said, "You mean, the people who help Ishihara are the same as you?" ”
Chonghu's voice was calm: "If there is really such a person helping him, then this person's purpose must also be for the Shaman Spirit Palace." Therefore, I have reason to suspect that Kenji Ishihara's great fanfare about the Gongei Village was just to cover up a certain purpose. ”
Kyoji Miyake pondered for a moment: "This purpose, is it referring to the Shaman Spirit Palace?" ”
Chonghu said: "General Miyake, you know, there are some things, it is inconvenient for me to come forward now, so, you can find a way to check, the land where Ishihara Kenji is engaged in Gongei Village now, in the past, belonged to which family of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, perhaps, in this way, that person can be dug out." ”
Kyoji Miyake asked, "Can't you just go and check?" This kind of thing, it's easier for you to investigate secretly than me, right? ”
Chonghu said: "Now is a critical moment, I must not show up, I even want to temporarily cut off the connection between you and me, so, your request, I can't agree, that's all." ”
After Shigehu finished speaking, he hung up the phone, and Kyoji Miyake looked at the microphone, slowly put the phone down, and thought carefully.
On the other side of the city, Li Qingxiang, who was out, returned to the door of his house with wine and food, and when he unlocked the lock, he deliberately observed the surrounding situation, and as before, there was no spy monitoring.
He was puzzled and wondered why? Knowing their identity, they neither monitor nor arrest, what do the Japanese want to do?
When Li Qingxiang walked back to the house and just put down the wine and food, he realized that there was someone behind him, and he turned around sharply and looked at Yefeng who was standing there.
Li Qingxiang said: "You don't want to be so elusive every time, okay?" ”
Yefeng threw the newspaper on the table: "Have you read today's newspaper?" ”
Li Qingxiang said: "Look, Langang Station is a strange story." ”
Yefeng sat down: "Although it is not clearly written on the news, I have learned from the mouths of those policemen and soldiers at Langang Station that this matter is related to Kyoji Miyake's secret search class, that is, it has something to do with our son, and most importantly, according to my intelligence, all the members of the secret search department who went to Langang Station this time are missing, and Hongtutun was also destroyed by the Japanese army." ”
Li Qingxiang nodded: "I also heard about it, but I don't know the reason." ”
Yefeng said again: "Not long after the secret search department went to Langang Station, Kyoji Miyake also went, and took his special train, but after he arrived, the Japanese army drove away all the policemen and soldiers who were originally stationed at Langang Station and let them station on the periphery. ”
Li Qingxiang finally sat down: "What does this mean?" What do you want to tell me? ”
Yefeng said: "I'm not a native of Harbin, I don't have a strong intelligence network as you in the local area, and you need to investigate this." ”
Li Qingxiang said: "Chongqing no longer trusts me, so I sent you to take over me, I am just a retired old man with nothing to do, if I use my previous relationship now, maybe the Japanese are waiting for the rabbit, so all I can do now is wait." ”
Yefeng asked, "You don't care about Yunfan's safety?" ”
Li Qingxiang shook his head: "If the Japanese want to deal with him, they will do it a long time ago, and they will not wait until now, so I think he is safe, maybe he is on some other confidential mission of the Japanese, come, accompany me to have two drinks." ”
Yefeng raised his hand to block Li Qingxiang's hand pouring wine: "Chongqing has issued a new order. ”
Li Qingxiang asked, "What order?" Assassinate? Destruction? ”
Yefeng shook her head: "Neither, just let's investigate a place." ”
Li Qingxiang asked, "What place?" ”
Yefeng said: "Have you heard of Gongrong Village? ”
Li Qingxiang said: "I have heard that the Manchurian Daily once published that it was the paradise of Manchuria, which also aroused the interest of many people. ”
Yefeng said: "The League of Nations did not recognize Manchukuo, and the Japanese decided to improve their image in the world, so they invited the League of Nations to visit Manchukuo, and the focus of the inspection was Gongrong Village, a pilot town they established. ”
Li Qingxiang was puzzled: "Will the League of Nations send an inspection team?" ”
Yefeng shook his head: "It's not an inspection group, it's a press group." ”
Li Qingxiang said: "Why did the Japanese build such a place? ”
Yefeng said: "As far as I know, the person who asked for the establishment of Gongei Village was a Japanese general named Kenji Ishihara, who wanted to give up armed aggression and switch to the method of cultural integration. As you know, the Japanese have always flaunted themselves as liberators in the international community and whitewashed their aggression as helping the Chinese people, but Chongqing believes that things are not so simple and that the Japanese should have other purposes, so I hope that we can investigate this Gongrong Village, which can be regarded as a front stop for the League of Nations press corps. ”
Li Qingxiang said: "Is it for us to blend into Gongrong Village?" ”
"It's impossible, you can't get in at all, it's a blockade zone, except for the people who are selected, everyone else wants to enter, and you can only use the documents issued on the day." Yefeng took out a map and said, "This is a simple map we drew based on the reconnaissance of the surrounding bandits, and the strange thing is that this Gongrong Village is not far from Jingpo Lake, and it is only two hours away from Hongtutun where the accident just happened." ”
Li Qingxiang looked at the map carefully: "Since it is a blockade zone, you can't get in, so what about sneaking in?" ”
Yefeng pointed to the map and drew a circle: "There are two blockade lines on the periphery of Gongrong Village, the first is the fortress line of the Japanese army, which is connected to each other by trenches, and the second blockade line is a birch forest, and there are many mines buried in the birch forest. ”
Li Qingxiang put down the map and took a sip of wine himself: "Then you can directly report to the Chongqing side that this task cannot be carried out." ”
Yefeng said: "If it doesn't work to infiltrate and infiltrate, I can only use the reporters sent by Chongqing as a cover to sneak in." ”
