Chapter 70 It's Finally Over
"Brother, what did you say to those four foreign devils? Why are they so happy from ear to ear, as if they took advantage of it." Gui Youguang was a little confused after dinner.

Just now Zuo Zhong and the four consuls were sitting far away, the others didn't know what they were talking about, they only saw that the dinner was over, and the four consuls took the initiative to hug Zuo Zhong.

Zuo Zhong didn't answer, and lamented in his heart that these consuls are really fucking geniuses, they actually did such a big thing, this is worthy of the old imperialism's excellent shit stirrer.

As for what they said about cooperating with each other, Zuo Zhong certainly has no objection, and he doesn't take it too seriously. The cooperation is based on the premise of the same interests, but he would be a fool if he believed them 100%.

So they had to submit a nomination certificate. As long as everyone got on the same boat, they wouldn't be afraid to cross the river and tear down the bridge. Zuo Zhong thought of the conversation just now, and showed a mysterious smile.

"Four consuls, it's no problem to cooperate, but we also have conditions."

"Oh? Please, Mr. Masked Man, be blunt, as long as we can."

"Please detonate some dangerous items in the embassy area, preferably on Japanese territory."

"this."

"This is also to realize our plan as soon as possible, what do you think?"

The consuls of the four countries finally agreed. Anyway, it was the Japanese who were bombed, and they did not have any psychological barriers. The more severe the bombing, the greater the pressure on the Japanese.

Zuo Zhong took out his mobile phone from his pocket and clicked on a recording, which clearly recorded their conversation. Multiple amulets are also good.

That night, several explosions occurred in the embassy area, one at the entrance of the Japanese bookstore and one of the Japanese trading houses. The city of Peiping was suddenly in turmoil, and no one dared to go to the entrance of the Liuguo Hotel to watch the excitement.

There was also a lot of noise in Japan at this time. At the imperial meeting of the Japanese emperor, several departments began to blame the responsibility for the Liuguo Hotel incident.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs felt that the Kwantung Army had made its own claims and caused such serious consequences, and the military should be responsible for this matter.

The Ministry of Army stated that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not work well, which made the situation out of control. The Kwantung Army rescued the hostages normally, not only did nothing wrong but made meritorious service.

Showa was dizzy when he heard it, and there was nothing wrong with what the two parties said, but out of vigilance against the overexpansion of the military's power, Showa decided to beat the Army Ministry.

"Issues related to the current situation always come from the military, especially the Ministry of the Army. If the subordinates are allowed to lead by the nose, wouldn't they have to deal with the situation?" Zhaohe said very unhappy.

Now the Ministry of Army did not dare to speak again, so they could only kneel down and plead guilty. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs seemed to have won a big victory and was very proud.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs should properly discuss the compensation proposed by the consuls of Britain, France, Germany and the United States and the shares of the Six Nations Hotel, so that no further incidents will arise."

Showa looked at the Ministry of Army again: "The Kwantung Army sent people to the Liuguo Hotel to apologize and promise, but it must not lose the state. Now the relationship between the empire and the big powers is very important."

Showa didn't care about the massacre of the Kwantung Army in the Northeast, but it would not do if it affected Japan's international image. After all, Japan also needs economic help and support from various countries at this time.

Showa is well aware of the reason for such a big reaction from European and American societies. It can not only make Japan withdraw from the trade with the red giant bear, but also increase capital investment in Japan.

"Bao Huo is a man who endures humiliation. The empire must fully prepare for the war against China. Please be patient. When the empire occupies China and recuperates, it will be the last battle against European and American ghosts and animals."

"Hi Yi."

Soon the decision of the imperial meeting began to be implemented. After discussing with the Ministry of the Army and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, they decided to jointly resolve the crisis, but the emperor said that he had to apologize again, and he could not lose his country. What should we do?

In the end, it was the people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who had a flexible mind and made a suggestion. After listening to it, the Ministry of the Army praised it very much. These non-citizens are really cunning.

After receiving the telegram from Tokyo, Japanese Consul Toyama Nakaji heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was not sent out as a scapegoat, but Kosuke Takamura was pitiful.

He handed the message to Kosuke Komura: "Mr. Gaomura, I hope you will not disappoint His Majesty's expectations, please."

Kosuke Komura looked pale after watching this, and nodded dully. He knew that he could only accept such a result, and he had to obey for the sake of his family in Japan.

Toyama Nakaji patted him on the shoulder, and connected to Bai Longdu's phone: "Consul Bai Longdu, we will compensate the loss of Liuguo Hotel in this incident, and at the same time withdraw from the board of directors of Liuguo Hotel."

Speaking of this, he paused, or these European and American ghosts would give up demanding an apology from Japan. After all, their goal has been achieved, and there is no need for extra complications.

Bai Longdu really wanted to agree just like that, but the explosion last night had already put him on board a pirate ship. He immediately reminded: "You still have to apologize for the tragedy that happened in the Northeast, and at the same time promise not to torture and kill civilians and prisoners."

"Sigh." Toyama Nakaji disappointed: "Yes, we will meet the conditions of the robbers. Please come to the entrance of the Liuguo Hotel before ten o'clock in the morning as a witness for this time."

"Of course there is no problem. As long as this matter is over, Britain, France and Germany will support you as always." Bai Longdu spoke immediately, very sincerely.

After disconnecting the phone, Bai Longdu immediately called his cronies: "Go and tell the masked man that Japan has agreed to the conditions and will apologize at ten o'clock in the morning, so that they can keep their promise."

"The Japanese will kneel down and apologize!"

The city of Beiping was shocked by this news. Since the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese have always been victors. How many bad things they have done in China, this time they have to apologize to the Chinese!

The citizens endured their fear and flocked into the embassy area again with their families and children. This kind of scene is really rare, and it would be a pity to miss it.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the consuls of Britain, France, America, Germany and Japan and many reporters arrived at the entrance of Liuguo Hotel. Zuo Zhong, who got the news, had been waiting here for a long time.

"Mr. Masked Man, the Japanese side will definitely meet your demands. Will you release the hostages as promised?" Bai Longdu didn't mention it before he was arrested, he didn't want to keep his personal ID.

Zuo Zhong had no reason to backtrack: "Of course, we keep our word. As long as the Japanese fulfill our demands, we will release all the hostages within 24 hours."

Bai Longdu nodded to Zhongzhi Yuanshan: "Consul Yuanshan, this matter will be notarized by our four countries, and you two can start."

Toyama Nakaji nodded with a dark face, Kosuke Takamura came out wearing a military uniform under the eyes of everyone, and walked towards Zuo Zhong.

Zuo Zhong raised his eyebrows, wondering what kind of tricks the Japanese were playing, shouldn't the Japanese consul come forward to apologize, why did a low-level officer come.

Kosuke Takamura knelt down on his knees happily: "On behalf of the Kwantung Army, I apologize to you and promise to treat civilians and prisoners in Northeast China humanely."

Zuo Zhong watched with a blank expression on his face. He knew that this apology and promise was useless, but at least he could get an explanation for those innocent victims. If he wanted to defeat the Japanese, he still had to rely on his performance on the battlefield.

After Kosuke Komura finished speaking, he took off his shoes, knelt down on the ground again, opened his shirt, and pulled out his wakizawa, as if he was going to commit seppuku.

"Random sign-in to get system space +1."

Zuo Zhong ignored the sudden appearance of the system. He watched Komura Kosuke slowly stabbing the knife into his abdomen with cold eyes. The Japanese were playing tricks by finding a random soldier to apologize and then commit suicide.

He grabbed the land with his head for the dead ghost Kosuke Komura, and two staff members of the Japanese consulate came to carry him away. Zuo Zhong didn't stop him, and it was useless for him to ask for a dead ghost.

The people around watched the masked man beat a Japanese to death, and gave deafening applause. The reporters kept silent from the beginning to the end, nervously filming everything on the scene.

"Mr. Masked Man, let's take our leave first, and please release the hostages as soon as possible." Bai Longdu ran away with his three younger brothers, and now they were going to negotiate compensation and shares with the Japanese capital.

The 24-hour release of the hostages was also negotiated by the consuls and Zuo Zhong. Only when the compensation and shares were negotiated, the incident would be truly over.

Zuo Zhong returned to the hotel and announced to the excited subordinates: "We succeeded!"

"Long live!" The secret agents hugged each other. They didn't expect the section chief to do it. It was really relieved.

He Yijun walked up to Zuo Zhong and hugged him gently. Those innocent victims in Northeast China also included her parents. She really admired this man.

Zuo Zhong stroked her hair without saying a word, and then walked up to the hostages. The hostages had mixed feelings at this time, both happy about escaping danger and sad about parting.

After all, for such a long time, the robbers have respected them very much. Apart from their freedom, they have not lost anything. Instead, they experienced a thrilling drama for themselves.

"Everyone, don't be so unhappy. Don't forget that I am a robber and you are hostages, hahaha." Zuo Zhong felt that the atmosphere was a bit dignified and made a joke.

The hostages laughed. They were probably the luckiest hostages in the world. After all, no robber would hold a birthday dinner for the hostages.

The little girl Yima looked at Zuo Zhong with tears in her eyes: "Mr. Robber, thank you for your birthday present, I will take good care of it."

Zuo Zhong nodded with a smile, hoping everything goes well for this cute little girl, after all, Europe will be a mess in a few years, but he won't remind anything.

"Let's have the last carnival, take out all the good wine in the wine cellar, and treat it as compensation from the hotel." Zuo Zhong raised his hands high.

The hostages also raised their hands in excitement. This adventure ended with a carnival. It was a great idea. Everyone prepared happily.

Zuo Zhong quietly walked upstairs to a room where Hase Ryosuke hid after the Japanese attacked.

Zuo Zhong said to him, "Do you know how to say it?"

Hase Ryosuke patted his chest and assured: "Of course I know. When the Kwantung Army sent people to rescue me, I took advantage of the chaos and hid. I didn't come out until you left." Then he wondered: "But how did you leave?"

Zuo Zhong smiled: "It's nothing, I've memorized the radio frequency band, communication time and password book for you, and you don't want me to go to the special high school to contact you."

Hase Ryosuke said speechlessly: "I am also a professional intelligence officer, don't worry."

Zuo Zhong pretended not to hear, and continued: "Your code name is Daxiong, and my code name is Fat Tiger."

Hase Ryosuke: I always feel a little strange.
