Chapter 724 The dust has settled (seeking a monthly ticket)
Ning Zhiheng stayed in the French Concession for two days, and then hurried back to the city. Because Yi Huaan sent back major news, Keiji Tohara returned to Shanghai from North China.
It has been more than a month since Takashiro Takahara left Shanghai, and now he has finally come back. I wonder if his arrival will add variables to the current situation in Shanghai, Ning Zhiheng still needs to deal with it carefully.
Because of Kitaoka Ryoko's incident, Ning Zhiheng couldn't figure out the true attitude of Kitaohara Keiji. He knew that because of the hasty incident, there were many flaws left in the action of eliminating Kitaoka Ryoko. Fortunately, he cleared all the living mouths and eliminated hidden dangers.
However, according to his estimate, Tsuhara Keiji should not turn against Kitaoka Ryoko. First of all, there is no definite evidence, and secondly, it is not in line with Tsuhara Keiji's current interests. A smart spy leader like him should know how to make a choice.
In Keiji Toohara's official residence, Ryuso Eguchi was sitting in the lower seat of Keiji Toohara, and the two were talking in a low voice.
"This trip to North China was really not going smoothly. I don't know where Wu Peide got the news. Before I arrived in North China, he claimed that he was sick at home. I visited several times. No matter how I coerced and tempted him, he refused my invitation on the grounds that he was seriously ill. I originally planned to do some work, but Liangzi's death made me unwilling to bother him. In the end, I had to clear him and hurried back."
It turned out that Keiji Tohara's trip to North China did not meet expectations at all. After receiving a notice from the Military Affairs Bureau, Wu Peide immediately pretended to be sick and delayed, and sternly refused Keiji Tohara's invitation, swearing not to be a traitor and never do anything for the Japanese. He tried many times to persuade him but failed. In the end, Keiji Tohara was so angry that he killed Wu Peide.
Eguchi Ryuto knew that the teacher was in a bad situation now, the failure of the rebellion task in North China, and the death of Kitaoka Ryoko made the teacher feel a little abnormal, showing unprecedented fatigue and decadence.
He had no choice but to comfort him: "None of us expected Liangzi's death, so I would like to ask the teacher to express my grief."
Kohara Keiji looked at Eguchi Ryuto and asked, "I have interrogated Hirabe Renakawa. According to him, Ryoko actually hid Jiro Hirayama. Do you know this situation?"
Eguchi Ryuso nodded and reported on all the situations after Takahara Keiji left, especially the killing of Kitaoka Ryoko. He explained in detail the on-site investigation.
"Teacher, based on my on-site investigation and the private investigations these days, I think Fujiwara's company has the greatest rift. Fujiwara Tomohito should be the mastermind behind it. He didn't know what channel he learned that Ryoko had hidden Jiro Hirayama, and suspected Ryoko had other intentions, so he simply sent someone to eliminate everyone. This person's ruthless methods and decisive actions are. No wonder he has the situation today."
Keiji Tuhara's eyes were full of sadness. He was different from others in his student Ryoko Kitaoka, and his teacher and student had a deep relationship. He didn't expect that after leaving for more than a month, he had already changed things and people came back. The white-haired person gave the black-haired person.
He rubbed his cheeks gently, couldn't help but sigh, and said, "Actually, before I left Shanghai, I did arrange for Ryoko to conduct some investigations on Tomohito Fujiwara, with the purpose of further contact with him and seeking his support to restore the unfavorable situation. But I didn't expect that Ryoko actually hid Jiro Hirayama. It was so confused! She just wanted to seize the handle of Fujiwara's killing of the garrison officers as a bargaining chip, but how big a storm can a small deserter cause? Alas! Ryoko is still too immature in politics, and it will end up hurting people!"
When Eguchi Ryusuke heard this, he opened his eyes wide. It turned out that Kitaoka Ryoko was indeed investigating Fujiwara Club in private, so his judgment would not be wrong. Fujiwara Tomotori must have killed Kitaoka Ryoko.
He quickly persuaded: "Teacher, our situation is worrying now. Don't let the strong enemy be under the leadership. Fujiwara Tomohito is still neutral. The forces behind him and the groups around him have not participated in this battle. If we keep track of it, it will push him towards Kagesa Yuki. Besides, we have no conclusive evidence. Everything is speculation, it is completely unworthy of the loss!"
After all, Ryucho Eguchi is much older than Kitaoka Ryoko and is also accurate in looking at problems.
Keiji Tuhara smiled bitterly. Standing at his level, he had to think more about it than Ryuso Eguchi. Of course, he would not make such a low-level mistake because of small losses.
He said slowly: "Don't worry, I know how to choose. Actually, it's meaningless to say this now. When I was in North China, I received a notice from the headquarters that the base camp had confirmed this failure. We officially withdrew from the work of forming a new government. This time we returned to Shanghai, we would hand over the work with Hiroki Kagesa and bring our personnel back to North China."
"Has it been confirmed?" Eguchi Ryuto asked in surprise. Although he was mentally prepared, his success was still a pity.
"Actually, when Kagesa Yuki took over my work, I knew it would be difficult to stay in Shanghai again, otherwise the base camp would not have arranged this way. Ryoko must have wanted to make a big fuss and fight hard to force Tomohito Fujiwara to support me. With the influence of the Fujiwara family, he turned the defeat around, but..."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh again, "What a pity Liangzi, she is still so young. I shouldn't have sent her to Shanghai, otherwise I wouldn't have gone this far!"
After saying that, both of them were speechless for a long time.
At the same time, in the room of Mulan Club, Ning Zhiheng and Hiroki Kagesaki were also sitting cross-legged on the tea collapse. Ning Zhiheng personally gave tea for Hiroki Kagesaki. After a few simple greetings, the two of them got to the point.
Kagesa Yuki took a sip of tea and couldn't help but gloat and said: "Fujiwara, Keiji Tohara had already returned to the Tuhara agency yesterday afternoon. This time his rebellion mission failed. Wu Peide said he couldn't afford to be sick and refused to see guests. He kept giving up Tuhara to Taiwan many times, but in the end he died of illness. Tuhara had to return to Shanghai in shame."
"Wu Peide is dead?" Ning Zhiheng asked softly.
"It was probably Tuhara's move. This man turned against him and was cruel. The Northeast King refused to cooperate with him at the beginning. In the end, he was bombed to death in Huanggutun, Fujiwara Jun, you should be careful."
Speaking of this, Hiroki Kagesaki looked at Ning Zhiheng meaningfully and found that his face had not changed at all, his eyes were as calm as water, and he couldn't help but nod. This young man had a calmness that was very inconsistent with his age.
Ning Zhiheng knew as soon as he heard this, Kagesa Yuki knew from the beginning that Kitaoka Ryoko was killed by him, but he still concluded that Jiro Hirayama killed someone and fled, which could be considered as selling favors to him.
Ning Zhiheng had long been mentally prepared for this. When he started to eliminate Kitaoka Ryoko, he made the worst plan.
Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly and said disrespectfully: "General Yingzuo, you have been worried too much. General Tuhara and I have always had a harmonious relationship. How can I be careful!"
Hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, Kyosa Yuki laughed and said, "I'm the one who made a mistake!"
Ning Zhiheng knew that Kagesa Yuki had cleaned up the Tuhara mechanism before, and all the former subordinates of Tsuhara Keiji have been driven to the side and sat on the bench. Kagesa Yuki has now controlled the Tuhara mechanism.
To this end, Takahara Keiji will definitely react, and there will inevitably be conflict between the two.
Sure enough, Hiroki Kagesa continued: "Now the base camp has basically agreed to our plan. Tuhara is about to leave Shanghai, but this person doesn't know how to advance and retreat. Our conversation lasted badly yesterday."
Ning Zhiheng knew it was this result and nodded and said, "Why bother General Ying Zuo? This is the general situation. Can General Tuhara still disobey?"
Kagesa Yuki also stretched his eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's true. The base camp had agreed to our request before, otherwise I wouldn't have transferred me to Shanghai to take over Keiji Tuhara. Now I can finally feel at ease."
"By the way," Kagesa Yuki put the teacup on the table, leaned forward slightly, and whispered, "As soon as Tuhara came back yesterday, he interrogated the only witness of Kitaoka Ryoko's shooting, Hitoshi Yabe, carefully inquired about the case's progress and transferred the investigation report of the case. I don't think he would let it go."
Ning Zhiheng's face darkened and he spoke, "Keika Ryoko's death has been concluded. To be honest, she hid Hirayama Jiro privately, and her motive is unknown. If it weren't for the fact that the person was dead, I wouldn't have let this matter go easily. As for General Tohara, it depends on his attitude. Of course, if he is sure to pursue it, it would be a different matter!"
Ning Zhiheng's meaning is very clear, that is, it depends on the meaning of Takahara Keiji. If he pursues the matter, Ning Zhiheng will not be afraid of him, and everyone will break up.
"Haha, that's right. This is Shanghai. But Kitaoka Ryoko is his favorite student. This person has been an agent for decades and likes to go astray. Fujiwara Jun should be careful!"
Faced with the repeated reminder from Hiroki Kyosa, Ning Zhiheng nodded and agreed, be careful, no big mistakes, and he really needs to be more careful.
The two of them chatted a few more times. Ning Zhiheng took an exquisite wooden box from the side. After opening it, there was a promissory note from the Masaki Bank. He gently pushed it to Yukiki Kagesa and said with a smile: "This is my little intention. Please accept it with a smile. In the future, the Tuhara agency should be called the Kagesa agency now. In the future, the Kagesa agency will control the new national government and have great power. Please take care of the Kagesa agency and provide some convenience for Fujiwara Club!"
Hearing Ning Zhiheng's name, Yuki Kagesa couldn't help laughing and said proudly: "Kun Fujiwara, you are so polite. You and I are both a family. Please take care of you in the future."
