Chapter 1306 Covering your hands with rain
Sorge recalled the contents of the warning letter and said, "The owner of the warning letter was the operative I sent to track Okamoto Shigenobu."
"In addition to the warning, my subordinate also told me in the letter that Okamoto Shigenobu's subordinate is an officer in the General Staff Headquarters.
"He took a photo of Okamoto Shigenobu meeting with the other party a few days ago in a park near the General Staff Headquarters."
"As long as you promise to guarantee my safety, I am willing to hand over the secret mailbox address containing the photos, Mr. Okamoto."
"As for my men, they have already evacuated according to the emergency plan after the warning letter was sent. They may be under investigation in Moscow now, so I'm sorry I can't do anything."
Okamoto Kiyohsu was furious. Okamoto Shigenobu's people had infiltrated the General Staff and even the Intelligence Department. What on earth were these traitors trying to do? How many conspiracies were hidden behind this matter?
On the other side of the wall, Suzuki Kantaro thought of the scene he saw when he left the General Staff Headquarters last time: the park, the intelligence agent who was following Lin Fuichiro, and that familiar profile.
After the ominous incident, he saw a portrait of Okamoto Shigenobu drawn based on the oral accounts of the participants. The profile and the portrait slowly overlapped in his mind until they were completely overlapped.
Suzuki Kantaro suddenly raised his head, strode out of the audience room and knocked on the door of the interrogation room. Lin Fuichiro smiled and hurriedly chased after him.

Tetsuji Sudo was sitting in his office with the "Notes on Life" in front of him. He was reading it so seriously that he didn't even notice a group of colleagues coming up to him.
Kiyofuko Okamoto was standing beside his desk, blocking the sunlight from the window shining into the room. Sudo Tetsuji, who was about to stand up and say hello, was pressed hard on the table and his hands were handcuffed behind his back.
"What are you doing? Are you crazy!?"
Tetsuji Sudo struggled desperately, but the agents not only did not stop, but instead used even more force and pressed him under them.
When controlling a professional intelligence officer, one cannot be careless at all, especially when the other party is a suspect in an ominous incident. No matter how cautious they are, it cannot be too much.
Soon, Tetsuji Sudo was pulled aside, and several agents placed his gun, keys, and wallet on the ground one by one.
The evidence officer carefully opened the drawer, shone the flashlight and checked the inside of the drawer inch by inch. All items were photographed and kept as samples waiting for further inspection. Everything seemed so orderly.
Kiyohuke Okamoto looked at it for a while, his eyes fell on the book on the table. He put on gloves, took the book in his hands, and started reading from the cover.
"Notes on Life"
He read the title of the book quietly and casually turned to the second page. He caught a glimpse of a few lines of small words on the back of the cover and looked down.
"What a night it is, the dusk is like smoke. The faith and ideals in my heart, like fireflies, streak across the sky in a cold night and burn into ashes."
"We walk on the edge of a knife. When we wave goodbye, even though there are countless silent tears of blood, we cannot escape the punishment of fate."
"If it is not God's will, let this place be overgrown with weeds. Know that we are sincere in our aspirations. Even though our names may not be passed down to future generations, we have not changed our original intentions."
"The light is dim, a faint moon reflects the shadows of the past, and our souls are gone with the wind, leaving no trace in the world."
It was a seemingly ordinary text, but when combined with the four characters "重信留笔" at the end of the text, it was not so ordinary. Okamoto Kiyohsu's head was buzzing.
Anti-poem! This is a standard anti-poem!
The bastard Tetsuji Sudo was actually in collusion with Okamoto Shigenobu. The minister's body shook, and he felt that his future was bleak, and a surge of anger arose in his heart.
The more he thought about it, the angrier Okamoto Kiyohsu slapped Sudo Tetsuji hard, and several bloody teeth flew out of his mouth. This showed how powerful the force was and how angry Okamoto was.
Until now, Tetsuji Sudo didn't know what he had done wrong. Confused, he wanted to shout loudly, but his mouth was immediately gagged tightly.
Okamoto Kiyohuke placed the text in front of Sudo Tetsuji and said coldly: "Sudo, is this how you serve His Majesty the Heavenly Locust? Tell me where Okamoto Shigenobu is, and I may be able to spare your life."
Sudo Tetsuji looked confused. He knew Okamoto Shigenobu, but what did this have to do with him? Was it just because the word Shigenobu was written in the book?
Seeing that he "refused to repent", Kiyohuke Okamoto read the words and said sarcastically: "What a sad word! You and your companions must be very disappointed with the failure of the ominous event."
After hearing this, Sudo Tetsuji became even more confused, but he immediately realized that he seemed to be involved in a conspiracy.
He shook his head left and right to indicate that he had something to say. Okamoto Kiyofuko nodded to his men, the gag was removed, and Sudo Tetsuji quickly opened his mouth to explain.
"Mr. Minister, I met a stranger in a park near the office more than ten days ago. He talked to me for a few words and sold me a book. I really don't know this person."
Kiyohsu Okamoto scoffed at this explanation. What a stubborn guy! The confessions of the Red Russians and the book were already solid evidence, yet he was still quibbling.
Outside the house, Suzuki Kantaro also shook his head slightly. His witnessing was an accident, and Sudo Tetsuji's appearance in the park was also an accident. Neither could be arranged in advance.
Lin Fuyilang remained calm. Some things could not be arranged, but some things could be. Sudo and Okamoto Shigenobu's "encounter" was a plan, but their witnessing was a coincidence. Sudo Tetsuji was still defending himself when several spies came in from outside. The leader handed an envelope to Okamoto Kiyohsu and bowed to report.
"Minister, this is something taken out of the secret mailbox provided by Sorge."
Okamoto Kiyohsu raised his eyes slightly, his gaze lingered on Sudo Tetsuji's face for a moment, then he opened the envelope, reached in, and took out a stack of photos.
In the center of the first photo is Okamoto Shigenobu, who is talking to Sudo Tetsuji with his face turned sideways. The two are very close to each other and both have faint smiles on their faces.
This scene made Okamoto Kiyohisa very angry. He threw the photo at Sudo Tetsuji and said with a fierce smile: "Baka, is this what you call strangers? It seems you need to recover your memory."
After saying this, Okamoto waved his hand, and the agents gagged Sudo Tetsuji again and dragged him towards the interrogation room. Tonight would be another sleepless night.
After finishing his business, Suzuki Kantaro was no longer interested in watching the bloody torture, so he said goodbye to Okamoto Kiyohsu, and Hayashi Fuichiro naturally left with him.
Two hours later, Lin Fuyilang drove back home. The ramen shop across the street had replaced its original noren curtains, which meant the environment was safe.
"Hu~~"
Lin Fuyilang let out a long breath and drove into the yard. The servant who came to greet him opened the car door for him, and his wife Yuanzi also came up with a smile.
On the other side of the city, in a dark room, Ozaki issued a dormant order to all members of the Northwest Underground Party of the Ramza Group and cut off contact with Mosk.

Trust takes a long time to build, but it can collapse in an instant. Having experienced betrayal once, Ozaki and others would rather fight alone in the heart of the enemy than become a necessary sacrifice in the eyes of some people.
1941 October.
Tokyo, which had been under martial law for many days due to the Red Russian spy incident, gradually returned to peace, but the leak of an explosive news once again shocked all Japanese citizens.
《Tojo, the Minister of the Army and President of the Mite Control Bureau, is about to become the Minister of the Cabinet and Minister of the Internal Affairs Bureau》
Konoe Fumiya ultimately failed to withstand the pressure from the pro-war factions, and the involvement of his confidant Sorge in espionage dealt the prime minister the final blow, causing him to publicly announce that he would lead the entire cabinet to resign.
Many Japanese newspapers reported the incident extensively. The Asahi Shimbun stated that Konoe's announcement of his resignation after the Japan-US negotiations reached a deadlock marked the beginning of a breakdown in Japan-US relations.
The Mainichi Shimbun also published a commentary, pointing out that Konoe's resignation meant that the cabinet had made many mistakes in handling relations with the United States, and the new cabinet might have to face possible war decisions.
In the art shop near Lin Fuyilang's residence, He Yijun filled the teacup on the table. Zuo Zhong next to him turned the radio knob, and the Japanese broadcast from the speaker became clear. This was the media supporting Konoe Fumiya.
"The signing of the Tripartite Pact between Japan, Iran and Iran and the establishment of the Imperial Government's Yokusankai prove that Prime Minister Konoe has successfully expanded the Empire's international influence through the alliance with Germany and Italy."
Zuo Chong yawned. The Japanese newspapers and radio have been discussing this matter recently, and his ears are almost callused from it.
However, Tojo is not in a good situation now. There are members of the Locust Sect in the Intelligence Department of the General Staff. The other party is related to the notorious, no, the famous Okamoto Shigenobu. This matter has caused a lot of sensation.
The Tojo Cabinet, which had not yet been fully formed, underwent changes as a result. The Japanese high-ranking officials were in chaos, some took advantage of the situation, some pretended to be stupid, and even the combat plans of the Japanese troops in the interior were affected.
Zuo Zhong, who directed this great show, continued to turn the knob and switched to another frequency. A cheerful voice came from the radio.
"Combined Fleet officers and men are enjoying their holiday in Tokyo. Students from a girls' school are welcoming these imperial warriors with handmade paper flowers. Navy, half a year!"
The Japanese navy came here for vacation? The media even made a big fuss about it? Zuo Zhong had only one thought after hearing this: There is something fishy going on here.
As expected, Wu Chunyang, who went out to gather information, brought back a piece of information that the identities of the officers and soldiers of the Combined Fleet who appeared in the city, shrines, and scenic spots in Tokyo were questionable, because several of them were colonels under the age of 30.
The Japanese Navy places more emphasis on seniority and background than the Army. If you want to be promoted, you must first marry the daughter of a general, and then you can get in line.
Starting from graduation from the Naval University, it usually takes ten years, or around the age of thirty-five, for a young man to be promoted to lieutenant colonel. Only a small number of them can become colonel before the age of forty.
There are colonels in their thirties, such as the marshal's son-in-law, but they are rare. After all, the marshal has only so many daughters, and even a second marriage is still a hot commodity.
Zuo Zhong drank up the water in the teacup, thought for a moment, and said to Wu Chunyang and He Yijun, "Prepare to evacuate. Get to Washington as quickly as possible to join up with Lao Gu and the others. The combined fleet is about to make a big move."
Wu and He understood what he meant. Since the members of the Combined Fleet in Tokyo were fakes, then what were the real officers and soldiers of the Combined Fleet doing? Of course, they were preparing for combat.
The shadow of war loomed over the Pacific Ocean. Old Dai from Shancheng held the report with a worried look on his face. For the first time, he was troubled by the strong working ability of his subordinates.
