General Affairs Office.
Higashino Daiki held the samurai sword in both hands, with the blade pointing directly at Takada Shun opposite him.
Takada Shunsuke had an embarrassed look on his face, standing at a loss in the office. A samurai sword was thrown on the ground in front of him, and he didn't know whether to pick it up or not.
It was as embarrassing as it could be.
"Stop it, Higashino-kun, how can you be so rude to Colonel Takada." Chen Yang walked into the office and cursed in pretended anger.
"Hmph, Mr. Takada said that there was a problem with my work, but he couldn't explain why."
Higashino Daiki stared at Takada Shun with vicious eyes and said, "I think he insulted my dignity as an imperial warrior."
"So, I must have a warrior contest with him."
"Takada-kun, pick up the knife."
Zhong Xigong also had a headache when he saw this scene.
The imperial army is good in every way except its tough style. Well, it’s hard to describe in words.
To put it simply, when a subordinate walks into his boss's office because he is dissatisfied with his boss's actions, there is a 50% chance that he will argue with his boss, and the other 50% chance that he will duel with his boss.
This kind of thing is not uncommon, for example, the Prime Minister Inukai Tsuyoshi, who was known as the Demon Fox,
Yongcheng Tieshan, one of the Three Crows, was killed by his subordinates.
"Ahem, Higashino-kun, what happened? What did Takada-kun say that made you so angry?" Nakanishi Isao stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "If there was something wrong with Takada-kun's words, I will punish him."
Higashino Daiki said angrily: "Colonel Takada asked me right away if I was in charge of the supplies."
“Am I the only one who knows all the procedures?”
"He thought that the Red Party had hijacked the supplies and that I had betrayed the interests of the empire."
"I fought for the Empire and dedicated my youth to it, yet he insulted me like this. I can't think of any other way to clear my name except by dueling."
Gao Tianjun waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Misunderstanding, Dongye-kun, this is a misunderstanding."
"I was just asking as a rule. I didn't say you did it."
"Okay, Dongye-kun, put away the knife." Chen Yang patted Dongye Damu's shoulder and said, "I'll help you with this matter."
"Director Nakanishi, I was also surprised that the supplies were stolen."
"How about this, give me some time, and I'll investigate everything and write a report for you."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Director Chen. Mr. Takada, let's go." Without any hesitation, Nakanishi Gong took Takada Shun away from Meihua Building.
In the car, Takada Shun complained: "Director Nakanishi, the people in this material transfer center are too arrogant."
“I think there’s definitely something wrong with their reaction.”
Nakanishi Gong sighed and said, "Takada-kun, I transferred you from the Special Service Department."
"Before this, you should have heard of the name of the vertical character class."
"This place is really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There is a great god sitting behind almost every department."
"But, in my personal opinion, it is obviously impossible to say that they are colluding with the Red Party,"
"The materials and transportation controlled by the Zongzike are far beyond the reach of the Red Party."
"If there is a problem, it is very likely a leak. After all, I really can't think of any benefit from the Zongzike collusion with the Red Party."
Gao Tianjun thought for a while and said, "Director, what should we do? Should we continue to investigate?"
Zhong Xigong thought for a moment and said, "Let's take a look at the report they submitted first."
"This batch of supplies is not too much, but it is not too little either. However, in the eyes of these people, it seems unnecessary to sell out the empire for such a small amount of supplies."
"Of course, we can't just focus on the vertical character class. We should notify the bamboo agency in Hankou and ask them to investigate whether there is any problem in Tianjin this time."
Takada Shun nodded and said, "Hey, I understand."
Shanghai, Zhou Mansion.
"Mr. Xu, do you know that if you break into my territory so carelessly, you will destroy me if you are discovered."
Minister Zhou, no, now he is Mayor Zhou of Shanghai. He looked at Xu Yuanju in front of him and felt a headache for no reason.
The stationmaster of the Shanghai station was so bold that he just showed up at the door without even saying hello.
Xu Yuanju smiled and said, "Mayor Zhou, I did some reconnaissance before I came here. I made sure no one saw me before I dared to come in."
"Don't worry, you have made a very correct choice. Shancheng will not let you get into trouble so easily."
"Okay, I know better than you what kind of people they are." Mayor Zhou suddenly felt that he was in a dilemma and didn't know whether his previous choice to cooperate with Shancheng was the right one.
"You definitely didn't come here just to chat with me."
Mayor Zhou rubbed his brow and said, "Just say whatever you want to say."
Xu Yuanju approached cautiously and said, "We found a man in Jinling, Lin Yuanpu."
Mayor Zhou frowned for a while, then seemed to remember something and asked, "Are you talking about Mr. Wang's personal doctor? Why are you looking for him?"
Xu Yuanju smiled and said, "We have confirmed from Doctor Lin that Mr. Wang does not have more than two years to live."
"What did you say?" Mayor Zhou was stunned when he heard the news: "You mean Mr. Wang?"
"He won't live more than two years." Xu Yuanju said in a deep voice: "Because our people have obtained the most accurate information. Because of the shot a few years ago, Mr. Wang has been diagnosed with 'multiple spinal tumors'. To put it bluntly, it is 'bone cancer', a terminal illness!"
"That's impossible. Mr. Wang is in good spirits and healthy."
"The former prime minister was in good spirits before his death."
Mayor Zhou was immediately choked by Xu Yuanju's words.
After a while, Mayor Zhou said slowly: "Stationmaster Xu, what do you mean by telling me this now?"
Xu Yuanju smiled and said, "It's nothing special. I just want to say that if there is any problem with Mr. Wang, President Chen will become the next successor of the new government."
"Your position will then move forward."
"Director Dai means, can you try harder to take down the No. 1 and take that position yourself?"
"That's impossible," Mayor Zhou is no fool. He made many bets just because he doesn't want to be the one to stand out.
Because he knew very well that once the war of resistance was successful, the first one would surely die, and the second one would be no less likely.
His position was neither high nor low, and with the little goodwill he showed towards the Nationalist government, he might be able to save his life.
Once he really sits in that position, there is no way to escape death.
After all, his previous actions had already made that person very dissatisfied.
Moreover, he knew better that Shancheng did this because he wanted to take down the new government of Jinling without bloodshed.
"Stationmaster Xu, I have agreed to cooperate with you, but I also have my bottom line."
"You keep forcing me to do things I don't want to do. Aren't you afraid that I will send you to cell 76?"
