Chapter 157: New Year's Reception

In the evening, the Japanese Consulate General located in Lujiang Province was brightly lit, bustling with traffic and people, and celebrities, traitors, and military representatives from Xiamen Island came to attend the grand reception held by Uchida.

The reception was held in the lobby on the first floor of the Consulate General.

Directly in front of the hall hangs a large calendar that reads "December 31, 1939. ”

At the bottom of the calendar, diplomatic envoys, newspaper reporters, dignitaries of Wang's puppet government, high-ranking Japanese military officers, and celebrities from all walks of life in Xiamen have already arrived.

Wang Ping and Liu Zifeng also came to the reception with the flow of people.

At this time, Wang Ping pretended to be a broad wife, she was wearing a beige evening dress, her long black hair was draped over her shoulders like a waterfall, and a white shawl was draped over her shoulders, which showed her grace and nobility, elegant and elegant, and Chu Chu moving.

Liu Zifeng posed as a scholar, wearing a crisp silver-gray suit with a light yellow tie, a top hat, gold-rimmed glasses, and a mustache under his nose. He looked personable and extraordinary.

As soon as the two entered the reception hall, they immediately attracted the attention of the scene. Liu Zifeng took Wang Ping's arm and nodded hello to the people. They still had a little smug on their faces.

Several Japanese immediately set their eyes on Wang Ping.

Liu Zifeng lowered his voice and said: Look, your beauty has attracted them all, and those Japanese eyes are straight.

"Seeing that you are proud, you are not afraid that the Japanese will snatch me away." Wang Ping whispered.

Liu Zifeng echoed her: "Don't look at how many of them have more guns, but they don't have the ability yet!" ”

Wang Ping smiled and said: "Little Japan is not a vegetarian, that's different." ”

"With me here, you can rest assured." Liu Zifeng said and continued to walk forward with Wang Ping.

Wang Ping naturally held his arm.

The two walked to the center of the hall, Wang Ping glanced at it with her peripheral vision, and said in a low voice: "Do you see Uchida, he is in front of us on the right, wearing a myopic glasses and looking at us." ”

Liu Zifeng glanced at it and nodded slightly.

Wang Ping whispered: "After a while, when the dance begins, I will entangle him, you will go to the second floor and take the opportunity to ......"

She looked around and said, "Remember, evacuate in twenty minutes." ”

Liu Zifeng whispered: "I know, but you have to stay by Uchida's side all this time, take out all your charm, hold him firmly, and can't let him leave here for half a step." As he spoke, his face showed a severity that was rarely seen in his usual days.

"Don't worry!" Wang Ping paused, and said solemnly: No matter whether you can get it or not, you must leave immediately. You go out of the gate and go 200 meters to the right, and after turning the corner, there is a car with a license plate ending in 361, which was sent by Professor Zhang to pick us up, and we will meet there.

Liu Zifeng nodded again.

The reception was held on time.

The crowd took their seats. Wang Ping and Liu Zifeng sat down in the back position, and the oily-haired and powder-faced man nodded to Wang Ping from time to time in a daze, with a flattering and flattering smile on his face.

Wang Ping bowed her head frequently and smiled politely.

Uchida stood up, walked quickly to the standing microphone, and said with a smile: "Since the Great Japanese Empire issued the Declaration of the Establishment of a New Order in Greater East Asia in November 1938, it has been more and more recognized by the countries of East Asia and Southeast Asia. Germany, a loyal ally of the Japanese Empire, attacked Poland on September 1 and was in full swing on the European theater. In line with the establishment of the new order in Greater East Asia, the Imperial Japanese Army accelerated the pace of jihad, and successively conquered and recovered Wuhan, Chongqing, Taiyuan and other major cities in China. ”

At this time, there was a sparse applause below.

Some of the people below were convinced of Uchida's speech, but many more had contempt and helplessness on their faces.

Uchida stretched out his hand to signal the silence below, and he continued: The establishment of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" by the Great Japanese Empire was intended to liberate Asia from the domination of the European and American powers, and to regard Sino-Japanese goodwill and East Asian co-prosperity as its basic national policy. In the more than a year since the imperial army recovered Xiadao, Xiadao has been restored peacefully and all industries have prospered. In the new year, the Imperial Japanese Army will take more and better measures to rejuvenate Xiamen and benefit the people.

After Uchida finished speaking, a waiter came over with a tray in his hand.

Uchida picked up a glass of red wine from the tray and said with a smile: Cheers to welcome the new year and a better tomorrow!

Uchida finished drinking it all.

The Japanese puppet traitors and people from all walks of life sitting in front of the table also raised their wine glasses and drank.

Next, it's time to dance.

The lavish band that was waiting on the side began to play the first dance music, and the reception hall was filled with a light melody.

"There's no time, let's go find him!" Wang Ping said softly to Liu Zifeng.

Liu Zifeng understood, and he took Wang Ping's arm and walked towards Consul General Uchida.

As Liu said, after Consul General Uchida saw Wang Ping, his eyes were immediately attracted by Wang Ping, as if they were glued to her body, and he always followed Wang Ping.

Wang Ping deliberately approached him and attracted his attention.

Uchida took the initiative to greet him, and Wang Ping took the opportunity to compliment and said: "Mr. Consul General, what you just said is so good, and I feel extremely encouraging when I listen to it, and I am suddenly full of longing and expectations for the new year.

Uchida suddenly smiled and said: Miss, you have won the prize. You are also beautiful, like a shining star at the reception.

Wang Ping said modestly: It is my honor to meet you. My surname is Jiang and my name is Jiang Zishan.

Uchida said happily, "Oh, it's Miss Jiang, can I have the honor of inviting you to dance the first dance song?" ”

Wang Ping: "Of course, of course, Mr. Consul General. ”

Uchida couldn't wait to hold Wang Ping. They hit the dance floor to a beautiful waltz.

The dance floor is smooth and spacious, with faint and colorful lights, the air is filled with the enchanting smell of perfume, and the hazy shadows of the dance slowly squirm with the dance music played by the band.

At this time, Wang Ping looked around, and Liu Zifeng had already left.

Uchida took Wang Ping and spun quickly on the dance floor.
