197 Mansion
"We study our peers' newspapers every day, and that's the editor-in-chief's rule."
Lin calmly replied, Chu Aiyun opposite him suddenly found that the accent of the team leader's words was perfect, it seems that in the past week, on the submarine, he has recorded and repeatedly listened to the broadcasts of various radio stations in Tokyo, and the spoken language has had a very significant effect, of course, he must not say too much.
"Well, very cerebral rules."
The gendarme put away the stinky face, and when he returned the document to Lin Xiuxuan, he smiled in return.
"So, you're a photographer?"
The gendarmes turned to Chu Aiyun, probably seeing the camera around his neck, relying on the mental hints triggered by costumes and props, which are always very useful, and now the gendarmes have begun to use subjective conjectures to make up the social identity of the subject.
"Yes, I'm a Life Edition videographer."
Chu Aiyun was slightly nervous, but did not arouse suspicion.
"When the people are preparing for the war hard, you are interviewing actresses everywhere, which is really enviable."
The gendarmes turned to leave, and the first test was over, which was an important step in building self-confidence for Chu Aiyun, who had already impersonated the Japanese army in his bathhouse in Shanghai, but after all, there was still a chance to escape on the Chinese ground.
The train slowly passes the wide Edogawa Railway Bridge and stops at Matsukawa Station. At least 20 guys dressed in cadet uniforms and with the rank of warrant officer noisily got into the car, most of them did not find a seat, and just stood there talking about the situation. The topic basically revolves around the U.S. sanctions against Japan.
Lin listened carefully to understand what these guys who would die in battle in the next few years had to say. After a while, I heard that this group of people had just passed the graduation examination of the non-commissioned officer school, and today they were going to pay homage at the Yasukuni Shrine under the Kudan, and in a week they would be assigned to various divisions and regiments to serve as trainee officers. Almost all of them are impatiently waiting for the war to expand, waiting for them to make meritorious contributions, and when they talk about the war against the United States or the Soviet Union, they are all relaxed, and China is already dying, and it is even more insignificant, the only problem is that Japanese politicians may not be reliable, and they may not dare to start a war against the United States.
It is not without disagreement, some people think that Britain is old, and the Americans have no spirit of sacrifice for their country, so they should immediately start from the south. There are also those who believe that Japan should take advantage of the opportunity of the German army in the Soviet Union to immediately attack the Soviet Union in the north.
"If our army doesn't do it now, it will be looked down upon by Hitler, right? We have been fighting for 4 years, and we still have not occupied Chongqing, and the German army has annexed most of Europe. I really want to have the automobile industry and mobile power like Germany. ”
One guy yelled loudly.
"If the Germans were to come to China, their automobile troops would also be stuck in the muddy fields of the Chinese countryside, unable to move, knowing that China's territory is not smaller than that of Europe, and there are no decent railways and roads." The other warrant officer said thoughtfully.
"I think that the Soviet Union is now the most important thing to do."
"If we had been at war with the USSR, we should have done it in early summer, but now it is too late, and soon the Soviet winter will come, and there is simply no winter equipment for 50,000 people in army warehouses."
"War cannot go without oil. Those who are still talking about going north are fools. ”
Outside the window, a western Sichuan water reconnaissance plane returning from the sea happened to be flying parallel to the railway, and immediately the train full of Japanese all waved to the plane, and the pilot waved his wings to show that he had seen it, causing the Japanese on the train to cheer again. Chu's fanatical environment made Chu Aiyun uncomfortable, feeling completely suffocated, I really don't know when this torment will be a head, Lin Xiuxuan is enjoying it, and waving out the window with a cigarette in his mouth.
The train crosses Koto City and enters Tokyo. When we arrived at Chiyoda Station, the army midshipmen got off the train together, and they could see that they had unfurled a military flag on the platform and lined up neatly. This is to walk to the Yasukuni Shrine.
The train started again and slowly drove past the Nippon Budokan, where the stadium was filled with propaganda flags for the sumo tournament, and then you could see the Yasukuni Shrine, where many people gathered at the entrance and loudspeakers played militarist songs, and the scene was smaller than the anniversary of the defeat in the future. The train slowly drove past the Japanese Imperial Palace into Shinjuku, and Lin Xiuxuan and Chu Aiyun's final destination was seen.
At 9:30 a.m., the train arrived at the station, and the two got off the train with their suitcases. The policemen who were walking around on the platform, seeing that they were well-dressed and not approaching, got out of the station smoothly.
There are too many people near the station for the drone to find them, so they can't ask for directions or hire a rickshaw, so they can only wait for the drone to find them and show them the way. The side of the palace behind the eastern moat can be seen in the distance.
In front of the statue of the Japanese military general Kusunoki Masanari in the Kamakura period, about a small squad of the Guards Division is changing shifts, looking serious and serious, but the queue is not neat.
Lin Xiuxuan was interested, he raised his camera again and again and pressed a few photos, he found a few rolls of film in the warehouse of the Mahler shipyard, which came in handy, and some Japanese people passing by quietly showed envy, Song Jiang's Lycra 135 camera is very in line with his current life version of the gossip reporter's identity. Next to him, Chu Aiyun was not as calm as Lin, and kept tugging on Lin's clothes, signaling if he could quickly find a place with fewer people?
The commissar on duty on 419 was nervously looking for the two of them, and the communication machine was packed in a suitcase, and the general area could be found by sideways, and then it was found through the IR identification strip on the clothing, but it would take some time.
He controlled his vision and swept over the Japanese Imperial Palace, and saw the scene of the Type 95 tank at the entrance of the Imperial Palace, and a large number of citizens stopped to watch across the river.
He narrowed down the scope and finally found the slightly glittering IR identification seal, which was enlarged and showed that he was the deputy captain, and Lin Xiuxuan was taking pictures next to him.
"Weasel, hear the reply."
Lin Xiuxuan coughed, signaling that he had heard, but it was not suitable to speak.
"I found you, crossed the street, and walked straight to Waseda University. Hurry up, we don't have much time. ”
The two walked forward according to the drone's instructions, Lin carried his clothes on his hands, looked around from time to time, and looked very relaxed, Chu Aiyun followed behind a little restrained. There are military recruitment advertisements in the open space in front of them, and cherry blossoms of the same period are constantly playing on the loudspeakers, and students often stop to watch as they pass by. It was 1941, and the anti-war forces in Japan had long since been wiped out, and militarism was at its peak.
After a street, they walked south along the secluded wall, inside which was the Army Medical School, which looked very high, but could be climbed by the large trees outside. But there is no rush to get in now, you have to find a place where you can hide temporarily and reconnoiter inside.
At the west gate of the Army Medical University, there were only two gunmen standing guard, which seemed to be poorly guarded, but it was obviously strange. When Lin passed by the door, he peeked at Cao Chang, who was still sitting in the gatehouse on one side, and speculated from his rank that there should be no less than a squad of guards near this gate alone. But why do UAVs see only a small number of troops? Maybe it's in the downtown area, and I'm afraid that there will be too many guards to spoil the scenery, so there is still a hidden sentry?
A black sedan drove up to the door, and the guards went up to check the documents before letting them go. No one in the car was visible, but Lin noticed that there was an iron anchor painted on the license plate on the back of the car, and the word military order next to it, followed by the number 136. This is the car of the Naval Command Department, and it seems that the information that the meeting is going on here should not be wrong.
This mysterious school has left many mysteries in its history. After 1945, the occupying forces, for ulterior purposes, simply demolished the school and did not reveal what they had discovered. Until July 1989, a construction company dug up hundreds of human bones stacked on top of each other while working on the site. Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, after launching an investigation, described it in very cryptic language as an unidentified victim who may have been involved in the war. Then the matter ended hastily, and there was no further talk.
There are only a few ideal observation positions near this area, Meiji Jingu is less crowded, but the terrain is low, there is no commanding height, Tokyo Academy of Fine Arts has a Western-style tower, but there are too many students, only the southeast of the Military Medical University, the tall villa across the street is very ideal, the drone monitored all day, at the door of this almost museum-sized building, I saw a janitor and two dogs, so I had to give priority to stepping on the point. If suitable, try to get in and pick a higher position to keep an eye on the military medical school across the street.
Walking to the quiet house across the street, there were no high walls around the house, but a carved fence, and behind the tall trees, there was a Spanish-style bungalow, but the big house looked deserted, and there were no cars parked at the door. Lin walked to the door, only to see the copper plate embedded in the gate that read "Ogasawara Earl Residence".
The door of the house was closed, only the side kitchen door was open, and Lin saw a middle-aged woman who looked like an old mother through the fence, carrying a basket and going out. Lin motioned to follow, and the two followed her into the fruit shop two blocks away from each other, watching her pick and choose a few apples, and it was estimated that there were really few people inside.
When Lin Xiuxuan walked by the side, he heard the old mother and the fruit shop owner talking there.
"Auntie, your master's family hasn't come back yet?"
"They have rich people who go to the countryside to escape the summer, where can they come back so quickly. There are only three of us left in the house, and there are four gardeners, and we are too busy cleaning every day. Madame came back and found that something was dirty, and she wanted to scold us again. Madame is notoriously mean. ”
"Aren't all aristocrats the same?"
Lin Xiuxuan grasped the general situation inside from a few words, and had an idea in his heart, and when the servant walked back, they followed from a distance, and when they saw her enter the courtyard from the side door, Lin slipped to the side of the door, and saw that there was no one left and right, so he came to the door and unlocked it in a few clicks, Chu Aiyun, who was watching the wind next to him, was startled, he thought that he would have to sneak in at night with the help of night vision devices, so he could only follow up hard, and carefully push the door to prevent it from making a sound. In front, Lin Xiuxuan put his hands in his pockets, as if shopping, and walked towards the building, almost without whistling. At this time, if someone passes by outside and sees Lin walking around so leisurely, I am afraid that they will think that he is from this family.
