Chapter 582: Japanese Gangsters

John looked nervous, for fear that Fang Lang would do something uncontrollable. Today's Japan has long been regarded by MacArthur as his own territory, and no one is allowed to make trouble here. Although Fang Lang has a close relationship with the U.S. military, he is still a Brazilian admiral in the final analysis.

MacArthur, as the Emperor of Japan, would have taken action if he had known that a Brazilian naval officer had made a small move in Japan.

As for the powerful forces behind Fang Lang, MacArthur didn't care. In the past few years in Japan, because of the praise of the Japanese, MacArthur, who was already arrogant, has long become unpopular, and he has a feeling of ignoring the US government, let alone a Brazilian major general.

When Fang Lang saw John's appearance, he also understood what the other party was worried about, nodded with a smile and said:

"Don't worry! I'm measured, if you're not at ease, all my actions are going on right under your nose, and if you feel that something is wrong, stop at any time, it's always okay! ”

In Fang Lang's opinion, since this piece of land of Jingguo Shenfang was targeted by him, no matter what the Japanese wanted to do in the future, he would know it as soon as possible.

If the Japanese really insisted on going their own way as he expected and wanted to continue to rebuild the Jingguo Divine Toilet, Fang Lang wouldn't mind burning this place again, and if he burned it again, it wouldn't just burn here, the royal complex not far away next to him wouldn't be as lucky as last time.

Seeing Fang Lang's serious expression, John continued to ask with some uncertainty:

"Are you serious?"

"Of course!"

"Alright, I'll watch you!"

As the two of them spoke, the convoy had slowly left the vicinity of the Jingguo Divine Toilet Ruins. After seeing the Imperial Palace and the Shrine Toilet, the convoy returned to the vicinity of Ginza, Tokyo, and watched the current situation in Japan all the way.

After a period of careful observation, Fang Lang found that although most Japanese people have solved the basic problem of food and clothing, there are still many idle people on the streets, and it is obvious that the employment rate in Japan is still not high.

Moreover, a large part of these idle people seemed to have begun to form a scale, which reminded him of the Japanese Black Dragon Society again, although this organization was the Japanese Extreme Organization, that is, the gangsters.

But he is a part-time intelligence organization, and he has committed a lot of crimes in his hometown. After the war, this organization was also exterminated and banned by the Allies, but now these people on the streets obviously have the nature of some Yakuza Society.

This reminded Fang Lang of those well-known gangster organizations in Japan in later generations, and now that his family has decided to invest in Japan and control the Japanese economy, these gang organizations must also be infiltrated and controlled!

"John, are those guys gangsters?"

Of course, people in gangster capitalist countries are no strangers, and there are all kinds of gangs in the United States itself, the most famous of which is, of course, the Italian mafia.

Including Brazil, there are also various gangs, large and small, and even the Hongyi Society controlled by Fang Lang's own family is actually one of the gangs. Therefore, it is not surprising that there are gangs in Japan.

After hearing Fang Lang's question, John just turned his head and glanced at it, and said uncertainly:

"I guess so! I don't know these guys, but there are yakuza in Japan, and many of the members are Japanese soldiers who have nothing to do after they have been withdrawn to Japan, because they have military experience, they are cruel and ruthless, and once made Japanese society very chaotic. ”

Fang Lang glanced at John a little strangely, he was just asking casually, but he didn't expect that the other party seemed to know something about these guys.

"What do you mean, you seem to be very familiar with these guys?"

When John heard this, he smiled absently and said:

"I'm in charge of U.S. Navy logistics, and I need to have contact with local Japanese people a lot of times, and naturally I can't help but come into contact with these gang members, so I know more or less about them."

For Fang Lang, this is obviously very surprising news for him, but it feels very normal to think about it carefully, think about the industry that gangsters are generally engaged in, and look at the comfort stations outside the US military base. Fang Lang estimated that these comfort stations may be more or less controlled by some gangs.

After all, if the Japanese government still wants to be faced, it will definitely not be easy for them to directly manage these places. And with the help of gangsters to manage, it is obviously a very good means.

"Oh! You know them very well, so I don't know if you can talk to me. ”

"Don't worry! Behind you are American capital, and these guys don't dare to reach out to your industry, so you don't have to worry at all.

For us, these people are just temporary tools to use, and we don't have to pay much attention to them at all. ”

John's face was casual, it seems that he has a lot of contact with these gangsters, and it can even be said that the entire US military has a lot of contact with these gangsters, and it is not possible that the US military still uses these gangsters to achieve some of its own goals, otherwise it would not be said that these people are tools that are temporarily used for use.

"Oh! I don't know, do you have any familiar gangsters, but soon our family's business in Japan will start to move. Sometimes we might need to do something with these guys that doesn't suit us. ”

After John heard Fang Lang's words, he didn't think much about it, maybe in his opinion, this was an inconsequential trivial matter.

"Of course, I have contacts with several big gangs in Tokyo, and if you need to do something, just tell me and I'll tell them to do it.

If you want to get to know them, I can introduce them to you, but I thought it would be better for me to introduce you to a guy who has a lot of influence over each of these gangs. ”

When Fang Lang heard this, his eyes lit up.

"Oh! And guys who have a huge influence on these gangs? Can you tell me more about that? ”

Glancing at Fang Lang, John shook his head a little helplessly, he thought that Fang Lang was just curious about these gangsters in Japan, and at the same time, in his opinion, there was nothing to hide about these problems, so he just thought about it for a while and said directly:

"If you really need these guys, I can introduce you to someone."

John's words made Fang Lang even more curious, he knew the situation in Japan, this country is the only country in the world that allows the underworld to exist legally, so the influence of the underworld is completely different from that of the underworld organizations in other countries that can only operate quietly.

They are able to organize openly during the day. Although John said that he wanted to introduce himself to a person who could have a huge influence on the Japanese underworld, he did not tell himself the specific situation of the other party, which made Fang Lang's heart as uncomfortable as a cat's paw and a dog's scratch, and he couldn't help but ask directly:

"Don't worry about the introduction, you still want to tell me, who is this guy? Does the mafia godfather exist? ”

"This guy is not a simple gangster, to be precise, he is a politician, his name is Kodama Yushio, a former Japanese naval officer, and a Class A war criminal tried by the Far East Military Tribunal."

As soon as he said this, Fang Lang's face changed instantly, he had never heard of this name, but the person who was tried as a Class A war criminal by the Far East Military Tribunal must be a murderous executioner. But such an executioner, apparently, was able to control the Japanese gangsters, which means that the other party is no longer serving his sentence in prison.

How could this not make Fang Lang's face change greatly, what did the US government want to do, a guy who was judged by a military court to be a Class A war criminal, actually came out to act again in the fourth year after the end of the war.

John didn't notice Fang Lang's face, and still introduced him unhurriedly.

"In 1948, he was released early because he agreed to cooperate with the CIA, and now he is active in Tokyo. Because he served as the head of the Japanese secret service during the war, he had a great influence on the local underworld organizations in Japan.

This person's work ability is very strong, and in just one year, most of the gangsters in Japan have been recovered by him, and it can be said that he is the leader of the Japanese underworld.

If there's anything you need to deal with with the Japanese underworld, you can just go to him. ”

As John's introduction became more and more detailed, Fang Lang's face became more and more ugly, he had already heard of the power of the CIA in the United States, and he knew that they were lawless and unscrupulous.

However, he did not expect that in order to accomplish their goal, they would directly release a Japanese Class-A war criminal and the head of the Japanese secret service who was burdened with a lot of blood debts, and let the other party come out to rein in Japan's underworld organizations.

This kind of behavior is simply to directly erase all the anti-fascist alliances and years of hard work, and Fang Lang really can't accept it in his heart.

But Japan is not yet a place where he can call the shots, so he decided to try to find out the situation as much as possible, and then let the investigation department under his command begin to enter the field of Japanese intelligence, find a way to further investigate the situation in Japan, and if necessary, he will send these war criminals who are at large to hell at his own expense.

Fang Lang's eyes looked at the street scene that was constantly passing by outside the window, and he didn't dare to let his eyes meet John's, so as to avoid letting the other party discover the killing intent in his eyes. Holding back the anger that was about to erupt in his heart, he slowly restrained the ugly expression on his face, and slowly spoke:

"Oh! It turned out to be the head of an intelligence agency, so the other party must be the person that the CIA is planning to use to develop an intelligence network in Japan! Let's go to each other for help, will it be inappropriate. ”

John didn't notice the abnormality of Fang Lang's tone, maybe in his heart, these Japanese people were not important and didn't deserve too much attention from him.

"To develop a fart intelligence network, I heard that the "Kodama Agency" set up by this guy named Kodama Yushio turned out to be entrusted by the Japanese Navy to collect war materials for the Japanese Navy in addition to collecting war intelligence for the Intelligence Department of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

They did everything they could to collect valuable items such as gold, jewelry, and jade from the occupied territories. Later, this agency almost became the treasury of the Japanese spy agency.

At the time of Japan's surrender, he was in charge of all the Japanese Navy's property and secret funds in Shanghai, and he later secretly transferred these funds with the consent of the Minister of the Navy.

My guess is that his early release may have something to do with the money he has in his hands. Either the C.I.A. took a fancy to his money, or MacArthur took a fancy to it. ”

Fang Lang really hasn't heard of the name Kodama Yu Shifu, but the name "Kodama Organ" mentioned by John, Fang Lang seems to have heard it often from later TV dramas.

It can be seen that this bastard called Kodama Yushio is definitely a complete war criminal, and now the Americans have released him early for the sake of the funds in the hands of the other party.

As a Chinese, he didn't have to think about it to know where the funds came from, so he was so angry that he trembled and couldn't help but slam his fist on the door panel.

"These damn bastards, this scum is a Class A war criminal, and they released him early for the money he had?

So what happened to our comrades-in-arms who fell on the battlefield in the past few years, and what is the meaning of their deaths? ”

John didn't expect Fang Lang's reaction to be like this, to be honest, he was also very angry when he heard that the CIA people had let these war criminals be released from prison early, but after more than a year of transition, and this Kodama Yushi did make his job a lot easier, so he had almost forgotten that the other party was once a war criminal.

If it weren't for Fang Lang's mention today that he wanted to contact the Japanese gangsters and ask about the specific situation of this person, he really couldn't remember. At this time, Fang Lang's reaction made him feel a little embarrassed.

You must know that the death toll of American GIs in the Pacific Theater is also quite huge, these people are all his comrades-in-arms, and now he himself has forgotten about them. Instead, he enjoyed the services of these former enemies with peace of mind, forgetting the sacrifices of his comrades.

Thinking of this, John didn't know what to say for a while, and the whole person behaved a little embarrassed.

After Fang Lang vented, he found out about John's abnormality next to him, and patted the other party's arm a little embarrassedly and said:

"John, I'm sorry! I'm not talking about you, I mean those CIA bastards. ”

It's okay if he doesn't explain, once he explains, John Clark's face is even more difficult to look at, but he also knows that Fang Lang is not aimed at him, and what Fang Lang said is not wrong, this matter is originally wrong, and the CIA represents the US government, so he, the US military colonel, is also wrong.

"It's okay, you're right, we're all assholes. When I first heard that this guy was a war criminal, I reacted exactly the same way as you, and I wanted to shoot him with one shot.

But I can't do that, and we need these bastards who deserve hell in order to protect America's interests in Japan. ”

In fact, Fang Lang knows the dirtiness of politics better than him, and the reason why he said those words just now was actually because he couldn't hold back for a while and blurted out.

Now after John's interruption, he has understood that since something has happened, it is certainly not something that the two of them can solve now. After all, this involves the CIA, and the current CIA power is very huge, and Fang Lang doesn't want to touch the other party's mold.

However, this does not mean that Fang Lang is willing to accept all this calmly, on the contrary, some hatred does not need to be shown on the surface, since the Americans cannot let these war criminals be punished as they deserve, then maybe they can personally make the other party pay a more painful price than staying in prison.
