ACT597: Common Enemy

On November 11, 1941, on this rainy day, in accordance with Yamamoto's long-cherished wish, his ashes and memorial tablets were not enshrined at the shrine, but were buried on a cliff overlooking the entire Yokosuka Naval Base. ∑ Top Novel, www.

On the day of the burial, nearly 100 warships of the Combined Fleet, large and small, assembled in a formation on the sea in front of the cliff. Almost all the high-ranking officials of the military and political circles were present, and even His Majesty the Emperor was present in person. But the faces of the few in the know were not very good-looking, not only because they knew that the real Hirohito was not present, but also because of an unpleasant incident not long ago.

Originally, the navy hoped to be able to posthumously award Yamamoto a marshal, and a group of army bosses led by Hideki Tojo did not object, but when it came to Hirohito, he just didn't agree. And the other party not only refused to posthumously seal Yamamoto Fifty-six, but also wanted to return the marriage contract with Masako.

This not only embarrassed the Navy, but even the Army was a little unbearable.

As a result, Hideki Tojo rarely sided with the Navy and tried to persuade Hirohito to change his mind. Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly asked Tojo, wasn't it his idea to withdraw from the marriage? This suddenly made Hideki Tojo sweat like rain, and it seemed that thousands of grass and mud horses were galloping through in his heart.

Indeed, as Hirohito said, Hideki Tojo had advised him more than once, hoping that the other party would re-elect a concubine. But at that time, Yamamoto Fifty-six was not dead after all, and now the divorce will inevitably give people the feeling of falling into a well. What's more, Hirohito actually said this in front of a group of people in the navy, doesn't it make it clear that he sold Hideki Tojo?

In the end, the result was naturally unhappy. Not only did Yamamoto Fifty-six's posthumous seal not come, but he also lost the marriage contract on Masako's body.

But the most innocent person is undoubtedly Hideki Tojo! The assassination had nothing to do with him, and it was not his idea to pick this juncture to withdraw from the marriage, but the navy believed that he was behind it.

In a solemn and solemn atmosphere, Yamamoto's brief burial ceremony soon ended, and the guests who came to the funeral expressed their condolences to Masako as a family member. This strong girl did not wash her face with tears, but her eyes without sorrow and joy made people feel distressed.

"It's going to be okay with a qiē. Take care of mom. ”

Yamamoto Isoroku's last words seem to be ringing in Masako's ears all the time.

At this time, a blonde and blue-eyed white young man came to Masako, and the other party first looked at her without a trace, and then gracefully stroked his chest and saluted.

"May your father rest in Heaven, and his departure is an incalculable loss to your navy. I hope you can survive your grief, Miss Yamamoto. ”

"Your Excellency?"

"Alas~! I didn't expect me to be so inconspicuous in your eyes, Miss Masako, don't you remember? We met on Iwo Jima not long ago. ”

"Oooh! I remember, you are...... You are ......"

Halfway through the words, Masako found out embarrassedly. Although he remembered where he had seen the white boy in front of him, he had no impression of the other party's name at all. The white young man was quite helpless about this, and introduced himself again with a wry smile.

"Burton, Walter. Burton, the leader of the Special Technical Advisory Group, I hope you will remember me this time. ”

"Uh...... Thank you for coming to my father's funeral. ”

Maybe it's the disgusting and handsome feeling that is too gorgeous, and as soon as Masako sees Walter, she has a desire to retreat and keep her distance. But now at his father's funeral, Masako can only show the will to fight and stick to his "position".

However, Walter did not leave immediately after expressing his condolences to Masako. Instead, he suddenly put his face up. This frivolous move suddenly made Weigong Jun Cao, who was standing behind Zhengzi, frown. But the content of the other party's whisper made him and Masako stunned.

"I have some exclusive information I would like to share with you, mainly about your father's enemies. I hope you will enjoy the light and have dinner with the contemptible the day after tomorrow. ”

"Why should I trust you?"

"Believe me, I am not your enemy. Just nod your head if you want to. ”

There was a slight hesitation. Masako still nodded slightly, which made Walter smile with satisfaction. But these small actions between the two of them all fell into the eyes of the "Emperor Xià" not far away. Let the other party secretly doubt in his heart.

Two days later, Masako and Emiya arrived at a luxury cruise ship called the Golden Truffle in the port of Tokyo, where Walter had agreed to meet her.

Masako informed the bodyguard in front of the ladder of the boat of their names, and soon a blonde maid came out and led them onto the boat. The two met Walter again in a richly decorated banquet hall, and as soon as the other saw Masako, he greeted him warmly, wanting to give a gentleman's kiss. But Masako instinctively dodged again, allowing the other party to catch a void.

Walter scratched his nose in embarrassment, still enthusiastically speaking.

"Welcome, Masako-sama. Your presence is a real blessing to the Humble House. Don't be restrained, please take a seat. ”

Under the guidance of Walter, Masako came to the table and sat down, while Emiya Juncao insisted on standing behind Masako, and the helpless Walter could only do as he pleased.

Once the two sides are seated, a group of beautiful blonde maids push the dining cart and bring fragrant delicacies to the table. But Masako has had little appetite these days since her father's death, and she is now more concerned about what Walter calls "exclusive information."

So Masako didn't take a few bites, so she couldn't wait to ask about the intelligence.

"Mr. Burton, I don't understand, since you are an ally of our Japan, why didn't you share this vital information with us earlier?"

"Don't get me wrong, Miss Masako, I just got this information."

"Is it about the enemy in the Shattered Star Zone?"

"That's right! And the leader of this gang has something to do with you, Miss Masako, so I want to give you a sneak peek. ”

"Something to do with me?"

Hearing the other party's words, Masako couldn't help but look puzzled, so Walter clapped his palms and asked his personal maid Irma to put a copy of the text in front of Masako. As soon as Masako opened the cover, she was stunned by the photo on the first page.

"How is that possible!? How could it be that he ......"

"Nothing is impossible in this world, this person has a power in his hands beyond your imagination, and he can be said to be the uncrowned king of the Shattered Star Region. Germany, Japan, and Italy all suffered great losses under him. Miss Masako, we have a common enemy! (To be continued......) R527
