In this way, Takasago Makoto, Amara, and Bim's mother and son recognized each other.

He respects his father very much, and he will definitely try his best to complete the things his father entrusts.

Therefore, he treats Amala like his biological mother and Bim like his biological brother.

He took Bhim with him.

However, he cannot publicize this relationship.

The Japanese drove away the Americans and became the new masters of the Philippines.

The Alatro family was hit hard because of their full support for the Americans.

If Takasago Makoto announces his relationship with the Alatro family, it will have a great impact on his future.

At the very least, he will no longer be able to stay in Sumalaga and will be forced to return home.

So, what should Amara mother and son do?

There is no one to protect them anymore.

Takasago Makoto has always kept this secret.

Until today.

"So, on the day the gold was stolen, you were found to have come back from outside in the early morning. In fact, you were not going to steal the gold, but to visit your mother."

Meng Shaoyuan asked.

"Yes." Takasago Cheng nodded: "That day was my mother's birthday, but I had something to do all day long, so I could only go there in the early morning and stay with my mother for three hours.

"

Amara also confirmed his statement.

"I stole the gold." Bim raised his voice: "It has nothing to do with my brother. All responsibilities will be borne by me."

"What a loving mother and filial son, and respectful brothers and sisters." Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "Although you have all violated the laws of the empire, why do I suddenly feel some sympathy for you?"

"I am willing to bear all the responsibilities brought about by this." Takasago Makoto was relatively tough: "I also know that Bim's crime is unforgivable, but please look at the merits I have made for the empire, so I can slightly alleviate my feelings towards him.

punishment."

After a pause, he added: "Although I think it is unlikely, I still want to say, please let me complete all the work in Tunnel 6 before reporting back to the country.

Everyone, I am not worried about taking responsibility, but the tunnel is really important to the empire. If I can complete it in time, it will not only help me atone for my sins, but it will also be beneficial to you."

This is true.

The various tunnels under construction are currently the top priority of the Japanese work in the Philippines.

If it can be completed successfully with quality and quantity guaranteed, everyone involved in this project will definitely have credit.

Bhim is Takasago Makoto's older brother, and he is also a gold thief.

But Beam took full responsibility.

Moreover, the gold was also recovered.

Takasago Makoto just failed to truthfully report his relationship with the Alatro family.

Even if his superiors find out, the most they can do is give him a severe punishment and lose his future.

Moreover, it is hard to say whether it will be more difficult to deal with than Takasago Makoto if another person is sent here, not to mention delaying the construction period.

Another point is that Takasago Makoto is unsophisticated, has bad relations with his colleagues, and is very arrogant.

After this experience, he already had a handle in the hands of people like Mizushima Yukihei, so it was naturally much easier to control him.

Even if Mizushima Yukihei's alliance of thieves was discovered by him in the future, he would not dare to make it public.

"Amara will be detained temporarily. After interrogating him and making it clear that he has nothing to do with the gold theft, we will consider how to deal with it." Mizushima Yukihei thought about it and said:

"Bim's theft of empire assets is a serious crime. Even though he is your brother, Lord Takasago, we cannot forgive him easily. Please understand."

"Yes I know."

Takasago Makoto glanced at his brother again: "Bim, I'm sorry, there is nothing I can do to save you."

"It's okay, brother." Bim was not afraid at all: "At least, I can admit that I am your brother now, and I have no regrets."

"Why did you steal the gold? Why!" Perhaps Takasago Makoto knew too well that Bim would die this time. His emotions suddenly lost control and he cried out.

"Brother, you don't understand." Bim said very calmly: "Sooner or later you will return to Japan. You are an engineer. You can live a life without worries about food and clothing. What about me?

I don't know anything except my strength, what can I rely on? When I knew that there was gold in the warehouse, I was tempted. I thought, with so much gold, even if I steal a box and make it more beautiful, you guys

I won't delve into it either.

In the future, this box of gold can help me find a wife. I'm over forty and I still don't have a wife. I'm not willing to do it. I really don't want to live like this for the rest of my life. You won't understand, and you will never understand."

Takasago Makoto could no longer say a word.

"Your Excellency Takasago, please calm down." Mizushima Yukihei said: "Please go back and continue to complete your work. We will continue to consider your problem.

As for Bim, we will temporarily take him into custody. Before executing him, if you want to see him, you can come and see him anytime, anywhere."

"I know, I know."

Takasago Makoto was devastated.

He took one last look at Amala and Bim, and then left with some staggering steps.

Amala and Bhim were also taken away.

After a while, Mizushima Yukihei said: "Thanks to you, Mr. Taniguchi, this complicated mystery can be solved."

Meng Shaoyuan just smiled.

"What should I do with this box of gold?" Yutaro Doi suddenly asked.

Meng Shaoyuan asked inexplicably: "What gold?"

Mizushima Yukihei and others were startled.

Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "This is not gold, this is stolen goods, and evidence of a crime. Ah, no, it is evidence of a crime that we have not found."

Mizushima Yukihei also smiled: "What should I do with Takasago Makoto?"

"He is guilty of concealing his history and not reporting it." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "But we can hide it for him. Do you think he will take the initiative to talk about this evidence?"

Yutaro Doi and Teru Negishi’s eyes lit up.

Meng Shaoyuan laughed in his heart.

This box of gold is the first step to completely pull you into trouble, and there will be a second and third step after that!

…

"I didn't expect it to be such a story."

Li Zhifeng also sighed: "Takasago Makoto also fought hard for his brother."

"Yes, it's very touching." Meng Shaoyuan said absently.

"wrong!"

"What's wrong?"

"There is something else you haven't said." Li Zhifeng said suspiciously, "Don't hide it from me. Every time you talk like this, there must be some secret you haven't told us."

"Really? Am I this kind of person?" Meng Shaoyuan scratched his head.

Li Zhifeng nodded solemnly:

"yes!"

That's who you are.

You know far more than you let on.

"You have wronged me so much, hey."

Meng Shaoyuan was a little helpless:
Chapter completed!
