Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

Chapter 184 The Ice City Disappearance Case

The Bingcheng Police Station, as an institution established by the Russians to maintain law and order, has often received telegrams from Japan recently.This made the police chief Petrov very helpless. As for what happened to the Japanese at Mitsui Corporation, the senior management of Bingcheng had a book in their hearts. It's not far to get out of the ice city.

But I know who did it, but I can't say it yet. The reason is that Brigadier General Andrei, the commander of the garrison area, has greeted him. Zhu Chuanwen, as a businessman from the Qing Dynasty that Russia will support, has already reported it to the Far East Commander in Vladivostok. Department, the decision will be made by the high-level over there.

If passed, Zhu Chuanwen will be supported by the Russians in business in the future, and will be used as a backup.

Office of the Chief of Police
Petrov was sitting behind the desk. Opposite him was a Japanese man in a gentleman's hat, black half-round glasses, slightly upturned beard, and a sharp-edged suit.

Compared to the tall Russians, the Japanese looked a lot smaller, but the two of them sat face to face with equal momentum, probably because the country behind them gave them confidence.

"Mr. Teraoka, we have accepted the disappearance case of Mitsui Trading Co., Ltd. in Bingcheng, but you also know that the Russians in Bingcheng are not enough manpower, and all this will take time." Petrov said sincerely. This matter still needs to be investigated, which is very troublesome and requires a lot of manpower.

"Director Petrov, I know, I look forward to your good news." Akihisa Teraoka is a concession official in Kanto Prefecture (Dalian). Mitsui Trading Company in Bingcheng had no news for a whole month, and the anxious Dalian Trading Company found it immediately. I met a familiar politician, and after the firm communicated with the Bingcheng Police Station to no avail, I troubled the officials to contact and follow up.

The meeting between the two seems to be smooth sailing, but in fact, each has a bottom line in their hearts.

Teraoka Akihisa can confirm that the Russians know something, or that the Russians did this, but it seems unwise to let the Japanese disappear on the boundary of Bingbing City so blatantly.

Petrov also knew that the Japanese kept making small moves in North Manchuria, and there was always a way to know the truth of the matter, but he just couldn't tell it.

Teraoka Akihisa got up and left the police station. As soon as he left the gate, his originally gentle face suddenly became gloomy.

Mitsui Kanbei, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, came up immediately: "Teraoka-kun, do you have any news?"

The matter of Mitsui Trading Co., Ltd. in the ice city has become a haze in Mitsui's mind, and it also made the Japanese businessmen in the entire ice city start to feel in danger. This made the officials in Kanto Prefecture also realize the seriousness of the matter. Akihisa Teraoka was sent to set up an investigation team with the people from Mitsui Trading Co., Ltd. to investigate the matter in Bingcheng.

At first, Mitsui Trading Co., Ltd. in Dalian thought that the Bingcheng Branch hadn't had time to report because of work, but after a week, they realized something was wrong and began to send people to contact them in person. This contact shocked the entire Mitsui Trading Co., Ltd.

people, missing.

It wasn't that one person disappeared, but the entire Mitsui Corporation's people disappeared. It would be more appropriate to say that they disappeared out of thin air.

But the Russian police station in Bingcheng did not receive a report.

Missing?conspiracy?
Two thoughts emerged in Mitsui Kanbingwei's mind.

At the same time, I also became anxious. The main reason is that Yoshio Mitsui’s identity is too sensitive. The direct descendants of the Mitsui family, even if the head of Mitsui is not a member of the Mitsui family, but the Mitsui trading company named after their family, most of the final profits are still will be handed over to the family.

The person in charge is a wage earner, and the Mitsui family is the real boss.

"Mitsui-san, I have already reported the case. The Russians said it will take time to deal with it, but I think we have to investigate this matter ourselves. Can Mitsui's telegraph still be used?" Teraoka Akihisa asked Mitsui Kanbei.

"It works!" Mitsui Kanbing showed a happy expression on his face.He knew that this was a plan to contact and use the dark men in North Manchuria. These days, the business houses of various countries also act as the tentacles of various countries. There are always a few people who seem to work hard at ordinary times, secretly holding a Salaries of intelligence officers.All the firms were more transparent in their hearts, but they also pretended not to know.

Bingcheng Mitsui & Co.
It is now April, and based on time calculations, Yoshio Mitsui and others have been missing for more than a month. After the investigation team came, they moved in here again, and did not go outside to find a place to stay.

This is also a part that is strange to everyone. Even though there are not many goods in the entire business, they are still well placed and no one has touched them. Not even a piece of glass in the entire business has been touched, and they are all intact.

Night falls
"Dong dong dong!" There was a knock on the back door of Mitsui Trading Company.

"who is it?"

"I'm here to see Teraoka-kun." Hearing the familiar Japanese, the members of the investigation team dared to open the door cautiously. What happened in Bingcheng was beyond their expectations for ordinary employees. The Japanese in the Qing Dynasty have encountered dangers in recent years. Although individual disappearances happened from time to time, this was the first time that the entire firm was in danger.

Opening the door, I saw that the person at the door was well disguised, his entire face was covered by a scarf, leaving only one eye.

"you are?"

"Don't ask what you shouldn't! Where is Teraoka-kun?" After the door was closed, the person who came took off the scarf.

This reprimand made the ordinary employees of the investigation team shrink their necks. Before the Meiji, Japan was also a strictly hierarchical social system. Simply put, it can be said that the four classes of scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are in descending order. Different from the Chinese scholar-bureaucrat class, their Shi is the warrior class.

People in the upper class can scold the lower class at will. After the Meiji, although the class was smashed, it evolved into the absolute obedience of the lower class to the superior.The young man of the investigation team didn't dare to ask any more questions. He took the visitor to the small western-style building in the yard and watched the visitor enter. The employee then breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards his resting room.

Among Mitsui Mansions.

Teraoka Akihisa was also obviously waiting for someone, and when he saw someone coming in, he warmly greeted him: "Xiao Liu-kun, why did you come here in person?"

"Teraoka-kun, I've done a lot of research on Mitsui's matter recently, and I think it's best to come here and explain clearly in person."

The person who came was Masaki Koyanagi, the manager of Zhongchuan Trading Company in Bingcheng.

Of course, he has other identities. Emperor Meiji is an intelligence collector affiliated with the Chrysanthemum Organization.

"Where are the people from Mitsui?" Masaki Koyanagi looked around for a week, and saw Akihisa Teraoka in the living room, but no people from Mitsui.

"I arranged to rest, why should I tell them about this?"

"Well, it's all caused by them. We have to wipe our asses and investigate clearly. Don't we still expect the empire to avenge them?" Koyanagi Masaki squinted his eyes, and was surprised by Mitsui Yoshio's trouble in the ice city. It's really hard to describe what happened, and I was also dissatisfied with Yoshio Mitsui in my words.

Under Teraoka Akihisa's call, Mitsui Kanbei also hurried down from the bedroom.

"The thing is like this, Yoshio Mitsui fell in love with a ranch in Mongolia last year, called Xiaoqingshan Ranch, do you know about Mitsui-kun?"

"I know, Koyanagi-kun, the telegram from the Shanghai head office was sent by me personally, and I told Liangxiong not to act rashly." Mitsui Kanbei heard about the ranch, thought carefully and said, after all, he handled it himself Yes, I still have an impression.

"Well, Mitsui-kun, then you should know who the current owner of this small Qingshan ranch is."

"It should be Hanyao Trading Company. Their flour is selling well now."

"Han Yao is the murderer who killed the employees of Mitsui Trading Co., Ltd. in Bingcheng." Koyanagi Masaki said with certainty.

"Han Yao, sounds like a firm from the Qing Dynasty?" Teraoka Akihisa listened for a long time, and finally spoke.

"It's a business house owned by people from the Qing Dynasty."

"Baga, a firm from the Qing Dynasty dares to commit murder against the citizens of the Great Japanese Empire." Teraoka Akihisa slapped his hands on the sofa and stood up angrily.Before, he speculated whether it was the Russians who did it, but now that he heard it was from the Qing Dynasty, he immediately became angry.

"Mr. Teraoka, this Hanyao is unusual in Bingcheng." Xiao Liuzheng remembered ignoring Teraoka Akihisa's angry look.

"Xiaoyanagi-kun, are you sure Yoshio and the others have been killed?" Although Kanbei Mitsui had already prepared for the worst, it was still difficult to accept the news. It seemed that the Japanese man was really going to be angry this time. .

"Sure, this matter is your Mitsui's fault in the final analysis, Mitsui Yoshio is really stupid, you should use ninjas, and now Heju and our Zhongchuan business are in panic, employees have resigned, this situation has to be borne by you Mitsui "Xiao Liu Zhengji recently sorted things out. He also heard the gunshots that night in Bingcheng. Start working again, but Yoshio Mitsui, a stupid pig, abruptly ruined this great situation.

Now the local newspapers in Bingcheng are all promoting the disappearance of Mitsui & Co., and the fact that no one is alive or dead really makes these Japanese panic.

"Have you mobilized the Hattori family?" Teraoka Akihisa also asked with a surprised face at this time, using the Hattori family's ninjas for a ranch, as for it?
"Well, actually the ninjas are here to protect Yoshio Mitsui." Kanbei Mitsui could only quibble at this moment.

"However, this Hanyao Trading Company is really too arrogant. It dared to touch the citizens of the Great Japanese Empire. Koyanagi-kun, have you reported this matter?" Teraoka Akihisa asked, compared with Koyanagi Masaki, His channel is much narrower.

"Report, let us stand still." Xiao Liu Zhengji said.

"What!"*2
"The Russians are behind this Hanyao firm. Do you know the identity of the owner of this Hanyao firm in Ice City? The sole Qing advisor to the Bingcheng City Autonomy Committee, and the best friend of the Bingcheng garrison commander."

The three of them chatted like this until late at night, Xiao Liu Zhengji also told all the things he knew, and when the chat was close to the early morning, Xiao Liu Zhengji got up and said goodbye.

But he didn't notice that in the window of the opposite building, there was an eye that had been fixed on this house for a whole day, and when Xiao Liu Zhengji left, this person also hurried towards the porcelain house.
