Chapter Thirteen Harvesting Intelligence(1/2)
Hu Wenzhi is a person who knows current affairs.
A sophisticated and intelligent man.
Perhaps he had an innocent and innocent side when he was young, but after being tricked by Di Bujue and Di Bujue's sister-in-law, he changed.
For the past twenty years, Hu Wenzhi has been alone in a foreign land where wars are constantly raging. Only he understands the danger and bitterness involved.
The fact that he survived in the end and got to where he is today is enough to prove that his quotient has been thoroughly honed.
Therefore, after simply weighing the pros and cons, he quickly reached a "reconciliation" with Shuangxie and Keijiro.
And when I say "reconciliation," you can also pronounce these two words as "surrender."
This account is not difficult to calculate: my companion Murakami has been captured by his opponent, and he is one against two. One of them is a member of the Huangmen who is famous for his "light skills, poison, and hidden weapons", and the other is a spear user.
He doesn't look like an ordinary character. If he chooses to be tough, the probability of escaping with his whole body is almost zero. It's pretty good if we can both die together.
Originally, he was just working for the Miyoshi family, and he was not his son, so why did he play with his life?
To make a long story short, after Hu Wenzhi chose to surrender, Sun Huang and Keijiro escorted Hu Wenzhi and Murakami back to the room next door and began the "interrogation."
Some people may feel a little strange when they see this. They were fighting and making trouble in the middle of the night, leaving two corpses on the ground, and then they went back to the next door so calmly? They were not afraid of disturbing other villagers.
?
Damn, do you think other villagers are good people? We all belong to the same village. A traveler staying overnight in a certain family in the village mysteriously disappeared at night. Can the neighbors not know what happened?
To put it bluntly, the six or seven guys before were just "those responsible for doing things." This village occasionally attacked passers-by, killed people, and robbed money. In fact, the whole village was involved, and you didn't care whether you wanted to or not.
This is how this village survives in this era of war and chaos. They themselves have been oppressed and robbed by bandits, ruffians, or those tyrannical people, and then they turn around and rob people who are weaker than themselves. No one thinks that this is the case.
If something is wrong, or even if you know it is wrong, you will gradually be forced by reality and have to act in this way.
"Tell me, what do you do at Chuanpengzhuang?" Sun Yixie asked Hu Wenzhi directly as soon as he sat down.
We have to make a digression here, that is, there was a small problem in the last book, that is, when Huang Donglai first spoke to Hu Wenzhi, he spoke Chinese, but what the other party heard was translated Japanese, that is to say
At that time, the "defamation" was in effect, and when Sun Yixie rushed to the scene later, he said "Hey? What's going on? Brother Huang, I seem to hear someone speaking in our Central Plains dialect?" fell into Hu Wenzhi's ears.
Chinese is directly in Chinese. What's going on?
The key here is that when Huang Donglai first communicated with Murakami and Hu Wenzhi, he did not know that Hu Wenzhi was from the Central Plains. Until Hu Wenzhi said the words admitting that he was from the Central Plains, Huang Donglai was only suspicious at most, so Huang Donglai's subjective consciousness at that time
He was still talking to Japanese people, and as long as he had this awareness, what Hu Wenzhi heard would be in Japanese, whether he was Huang Donglai's direct counterpart or a third party.
And what Sun Yixie shouted when he ran over was to Huang Donglai. On this occasion, if there are Japanese people around who don't understand Chinese, those Japanese people will still hear Japanese, but because Hu Wenzhi is from the Central Plains
At this time, as a third party, when he hears what Brother Sun said in his subjective consciousness, "Central Plains people speak to Central Plains people", he will hear Chinese.
So, let me ask you a question here. What would happen if there was a "Japanese who understands Chinese" present?
The answer is——
When Shuangxi didn't know that the Japanese knew Chinese, they spoke directly to the Japanese, and what he heard was Japanese. When they spoke to another Japanese near the Japanese, what the Japanese heard was still Japanese.
Japanese, but when they speak to someone near the Japanese who they clearly know is a Central Plains person or someone who can speak Chinese, the Japanese who understands Chinese will hear Chinese.
And when Shuangxi knows that the Japanese understands Chinese, it does not matter whether the Japanese is their direct conversation partner or a third party (as a third party, if the person Shuangxie is talking to is a Japanese, Shuangxi still needs to know that he is present)
), you will hear Chinese.
Does the setting description I mentioned above sound a bit like "K language"?
Anyway, you will understand if you understand it, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it, because this matter is actually not very important. Here is a reminder for those readers who prefer to ponder the details, in order to prevent Hayato Kamo from appearing again in some situations later.
When a similar situation occurs, you will have a tangled feeling that you have not pooped cleanly.
Back to business...
"Since you knew it was us just by looking at the weapons, do you still need me to tell you what happened again?" Hu Wenzhi answered Sun Yixie's question in a manner that was neither condescending nor condescending.
"Tsk..." But everyone knows Sun Yixie. He has his usual routine after taking control of the situation. "We will tell you and explain it to yourself. Do you know there is a difference in nature?"
This is not the first time that Brother Sun has said this formula. Of course, this formula also has some meaning...
As the saying goes, "The more you talk, the more likely you are to make mistakes." If you let a person answer for himself, he will often "have to tell something no matter what."
Then you have to ask: "How can you say something is wrong when nothing is wrong?"
Then I could only answer: "It's just because it's okay now. If you say that... wouldn't something happen?"
Anyway, everyone is familiar with this term, right...
"Okay..." At this moment, Hu Wenzhi was so fooled by Sun Yixie, and he really started to explain while thinking about it.
In fact, Hu Wenzhi and Murakami's plan was very simple: on the day of the assassination of Zhutian, because Hu Wenzhi had the ability to use ear skills to detect the movements of Zhutian from a long distance, he and Murakami decided from the beginning not to step into Chuanpengzhuang;
The two of them had been cat-catting in the forest outside the hotel wall since the afternoon, patiently waiting for an opportunity to find themselves alone in the bamboo field. When the opportunity came, they only had to find a suitable wall, climb up, and then throw themselves off the wall.
Take out the iron weight and take Zhutian away, and then walk away.
The advantage of this plan is that the two of them don't have to show up in front of others from beginning to end. As long as during the killing, that is, in those short few seconds, no one nearby happens to witness the murder (with Hu Wenzhi's ear skills).
Exploration, this is also guaranteed to a certain extent), then they can retreat calmly after it is done, and even if Takeda's body is discovered immediately and causes a commotion in the hotel, it will not be a big problem... because after seeing that kind of "
After "blunt injury", the investigators' first reaction must be "Takeda was beaten to death from close range." On this basis, the first person they will suspect and investigate is undoubtedly the people in the hotel.
Even if the investigator guesses that "the murderer climbed over the wall and ran away after killing everyone," they will still think that the murderer is a hotel employee or a guest with a check-in record, because normally, only by entering the hotel in advance can they lock and track Takeda and find him.
The time to start.
Unless Kumagai can guess out of thin air that "someone can lock Takeda's location from outside the hotel wall and launch long-range attacks that are the same as melee bludgeoning injuries", he will not deduce that "the murderer has no clue from the beginning to the end."
People who have entered the hotel" such a conclusion.
So, that afternoon, Hu Wenzhi and Murakami began to act according to the plan.
What was slightly beyond Hu Wenzhi's expectation was that the VIP suite where Takeda and Kumagaya were located had separate toilets. That place was not connected to an external wall, so the supposedly ideal assassination opportunity of "Takeda went to the toilet" no longer existed.
Of course, we all know that even if the VIP room does not have a separate toilet, Hu Wenzhi and the others can't do it, because from the afternoon to the evening of that day, Huang Donglai basically "stationed" in the ordinary toilet of the hotel. If Zhutian really went to use the ordinary toilet,
There is always a witness nearby.
In this way, they waited until midnight. Just when Hu Wenzhi thought that there might be no chance that day, Zhutian came to the door himself.
This matter can only be said to be fate...
That day, Takeda and Kumagai were in a good mood after talking about things, so they had a banquet together until late at night. Later, Kumagai went back to his room to rest, but Taketa was still very excited and didn't want to go to bed, so he invited a few girls to the room to keep him company.
After the clouds and rain, Zhutian was sweating all over and had woken up a little from the wine. He wanted to take a bath and sweat before going to sleep.
And because he had just finished errands at the moment, all his followers had been sent outside by him before, and he just wanted to wash up and go to sleep, so he didn't deliberately run outside to ask others to follow him, but he just
Go out from the corridor at the back door of the VIP room, pass through the wooden cabin where you change clothes, and go to the pool to take a dip.
He didn't expect that once he left, he wouldn't be able to come back.
Hu Wenzhi and Murakami were also very cautious and calm. After Takeda entered the hot spring alone, they did not take action immediately.
I've been waiting for this moment, no less than an hour and a half.
In order to avoid unexpected situations such as the opponent's "instinctive reaction when being attacked head-on" to dodge the attack, or the fact that he turned his head slightly and missed the kill, they waited for a few more minutes until Takeda came out of the pool and turned around to leave.
Only then did he take action.
Facts also proved that their caution was correct, because it was already late at night, and the sound transmission effect was better than during the day, so Murakami's "locking sickle" made a certain noise before it was shot and when it broke through the air... This noise was
The source of the surprised expression on Takeda's face, but because the attack came from behind, Takeda couldn't dodge even if he realized something.
"Hmm... It seems that you two are quite professional." After hearing Hu Wenzhi finish telling the details of the assassination, Sun Yixie pondered thoughtfully, and then said, "Isn't this the first time you've done this?"
"Oh, that's right." Hu Wenzhi smiled and did not deny it, "I am a martial arts practitioner who left my hometown and left my hometown in this war-torn place. If I don't do this kind of thing, what else can I do?" He said,
Then he glanced in the direction outside the house, "I can either do things for others in exchange for reward, or I can do the same thing as the villagers here and do things that cost money and kill people."
"Oh...doing things for someone, right?" Sun Yixie quickly captured the most critical words in this sentence, then paused and said in a serious tone, "For whom?"
Look, isn't this just saying something out of nothing?
"Mr. Araki!" At this moment, Murakami couldn't help it any longer. He quickly spoke out, "These people are either Maori or nuns. We can't betray them just to survive..."
"Hahahaha..." Unexpectedly, before Murakami finished speaking, Keijiro laughed and interrupted him, "Uncle, when you say this, doesn't it mean you are admitting that you are a member of the Miyoshi clan?"
Murakami was stunned again by the other party's little attention.
You may have felt it after reading this. Whether it was the previous misunderstanding with Huang Donglai or the repeated overreaction and exposure of Keijiro's words, it all shows the fact that Murakami's brain is not very good.
Judging from the background of the times at that time, Murakami was definitely not an ordinary fool for the Miyoshi clan to arrange for Hu Wenzhi, an "outsider" from the Central Plains, to be his boss; as long as he was a little normal, given his age and
Given his background, he should be the one to lead Hu Wenzhi.
"Alas..." Two seconds later, Hu Wenzhi sighed, "Mr. Murakami, what do you want me to say?"
At this point, it is useless to say anything. Everyone knows what the current situation of the three families, Maori, Nizi and Miyoshi, is. Hu Wenzhi and Murakami have killed a person who is very important to the Maori family. Murakami will make another unintentional elimination.
Fa, you can tell with your buttocks that they are here to disrupt the situation for the Miyoshi family.
"Ha!" Sun Yixie was also happy and blurted out at that time, "So there are ninjas as mentally retarded as you?"
As soon as these words came out, Hu Wenzhi was slightly shocked.
Information was underdeveloped at that time, and people in the Central Plains knew very little about overseas customs and customs. Much of the information would become distorted after being circulated. Even Hu Wenzhi did not know what a "ninja" was until long after he came to Japan.
But at this moment, Sun Yixie revealed Murakami's identity as a "ninja" as soon as he opened his mouth. This shows that he not only knows about "ninja", but also has a considerable understanding of it.
