Chapter 135 Anthony Goes Home

"How many days will Mr. Shibuya give me?"

"Counting the ten days of your injury and rest, it's a total of half a month." Anna said, "Chief Shibuya has been very tolerant of you. He told Su Wenqing that you are his student, otherwise, you thought Su Wenqing would be obedient. Do you come to make amends?"

Zhou Sen frowned. When did he become a student of Saburo Shibuya? If word got out, he would jump into the Songhua River and he wouldn't be able to clean it up.

"Half a month is too little time. Excluding the time for me to recuperate, it's only five days. It's too urgent..."

"While you were recuperating, you were not idle. You said, if Tang Peiyuan knew that you teamed up with Su Wenqing and Qin Lang to seize his new stage, what do you think he would do?" Anna chuckled.

"My business is all business. I don't steal or rob. If you do this, you will be unethical. You are still an employee of my 'Sen'. If you leak company secrets, it is against professional ethics." Zhou Sen hurriedly said.

"But I am an agent of the Great Japanese Empire, and this is my true identity." Anna said, "What professional ethics, what does that have to do with me?"

"you……"

"Zhou Sen, you are a smart person. I believe you know what to do to keep everything in place. Don't learn from Bai Yulan's predecessor." Anna chuckled.

"It seems that you know the cause of the old horse's death?"

"I don't know. I wasn't in Bingcheng when the old horse died. How did I know?" Anna hurriedly tried to make amends.

"What about Front, I gave him clues for the investigation, but he didn't make any progress?" Zhou Sen asked.

"I'm afraid the clues you provided are not very useful, and such a large-scale search will easily attract the attention of Soviet Russian spies in the city. Chief Shibuya has ordered him to stop." Anna shook her head and said.

"Okay, when can my adoptive father's ashes and his relics be exchanged for me?" Zhou Sen asked.

"Fengtian needs to do things more realistically, so it's a little bit late, but there should be news soon, so you can rest assured."

"I see." Zhou Sen nodded and left with a heavy heart.

……

When Bai Yulan asked about it at night, Zhou Sen used "Irina" as an excuse to get out of the hospital, and he knew he couldn't hide it from her.

It's fine if she doesn't ask any more questions, as long as she understands it in her heart.

The phone cannot be made. Even if the Japanese remove the monitoring, they may not remove the monitoring, as long as they are not caught.

Anyway, it's not that the Japanese have never done such shameless things.

The so-called exposure and protest are just to make the other party restrain and scruple, and they will tear their skins apart unless the two countries have declared war.

The Japanese only dare to engage in friction and sneak attacks secretly, while Soviet Russia is now focusing on domestic affairs and does not want war.

That's why the Puppet Manchukuo was recognized and diplomats were stationed there.

In Ice City, Soviet Russia will not really tear themselves apart with the Japanese, and both sides maintain a state of restraint, tacit understanding.

How can I get in touch with Arman again? Zhou Sen is restless, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Zhou Sen was in a hurry, but Arman was also in a hurry. After all, the first appointment had messed up the Bingcheng Gendarmerie Special Higher Class.

But now there is no direct contact channel at all, and neither side dares to make any big moves, and the Japanese secret service is watching.

……

"Comrade Poporov, if there are any foreign affairs activities recently, send Comrade Sisonov there as much as possible!" In the Soviet Russian Consulate General, Arman, the deputy consul general, called Poporov into the office and gave instructions.

"You mean, he is likely to continue to use Sisonov to contact us?"

"You also said it was very possible, but I can't guarantee it. After all, she will no longer use the method of making appointments directly by phone. It is too dangerous and can only be done through indirect methods." Alman said.

"Okay, I'll adjust Comrade Sisonov's recent work arrangements a little bit. He's already focused on dealing with business matters and more business activities, so there won't be any problem." Poporov said, "The courier is Can't we let her try a little more?"

"Yes, but the identity of the messenger must not be revealed." Arman thought for a moment.

Poporov nodded: "I'll arrange to talk to her."

……

The days passed quickly, and soon the first month came to an end, and the temperature gradually increased, although it was still below zero.

But compared with the severe cold of minus [-] to [-] degrees, the temperature is much better now, and the sunshine hours have also increased.

Zhou Sen's chest pain was no longer so painful, and there was no problem with his normal daily life. Bai Yulan changed his medicine again.

Still worried, Zhou Sen went to the hospital to take an "X" ray. The doctor said that the wound healed well, and basically the original crack could not be seen.

He also asked Zhou Sen what kind of medicine he took internally and externally. The effect was so miraculous, of course it was impossible for Zhou Sen to tell the other party.

It was perfunctory with a sentence of "good health, young, fast recovery".

Zhou Sen went home to live, and Wu En also went back to live with him, and he felt a little uncomfortable when he returned to his own home.

After Irina was discharged from the hospital, she felt a little depressed. Anthony's departure hit her even harder than Zhou Sen, her adopted son.

It's not that Zhou Sen doesn't feel it, but that his emotions are not so strong. After all, he is not his own, and has another soul.

But the feelings in Yuanshen's memory still affected him a lot.

At least this old White Russian gave him a decent life and a good education, which he would not have had if he lived on the streets.

"Irina, you can stay here for as long as you want, and you will be paid for food and drink every month, including your living expenses and medical treatment." Zhou Sen is still very fond of Irina. Love, this White Russian woman has served him and Anthony's father and son meticulously for more than ten years, hardworking, this emotion has already surpassed the master and servant, and is the same as a family member.

"Thank you, Master Vasim." Irina thanked her. She has lived here for more than ten years, and she has no relatives in Bingcheng, and she has no other place to go.

If Zhou Sen really didn't need her, she would have to move out, but now Zhou Sen not only let her stay, but could continue to live forever. This would solve her big problem for the rest of her life.

"I'm engaged. After I get married, there may be very few chances of coming back to live. I'll leave the house to you." Zhou Sen said, "Papa Anthony's room, don't move it for now. We'll talk about it after the ashes come back and the burial." .”

"Ok."

"My room, you just clean it every day."

"Yes."

……

Gu Laoliu and Ye San'er were very happy when they returned to "Sen" to work. They only knew that Zhou Sen was recuperating in the Ningxiang Hall, but they didn't know much about the rest.

Now that Zhou Sen recovered from his illness and came to work, he was naturally very happy.

"Boss, during the time you were away, we didn't know what to do, and what we ate didn't taste good. Now that you're back, it's different."

"Lao Liu, you are the inspector now, and I'm not your boss. Don't call me 'Boss' from now on, otherwise people will misunderstand if they hear it." Zhou Sen said.

"It's okay, let's call secretly, so that no one else can hear it.

"No, there are no rules, and there is no such thing as a circle. You can't call this name indiscriminately." Zhou Sen said seriously.

"Then what do we call you, Brother Sen?"

"Liu Liu, you are older than me, how can you call me brother, A Sen or Xiao Sen." Zhou Sen said hastily, "As for the third son, it doesn't matter if you call him Brother Sen."

"Okay, Brother Sen." Ye San'er agreed quickly.

"My name is Master Sen." Gu Laoliu said, although Zhou Sen is no longer his direct supervisor, but his police rank and position are higher than him, if he is called by age, what will others think of him?

"It's up to you." Zhou Sen didn't force it, after all, he also has his own reasons, so he couldn't force him to call it that way.

"In a while, I have to go back to the police station to sell my vacation. Let's go to Lao Sheng's house for dinner at noon." Zhou Sen ordered, "Call the Qing family brothers."

"Do you want to call Miss Anna?"

"You don't care about her." Zhou Sen shook his head, Anna and Fronte had better not associate with people like Gu Laoliu.

He is also doing this for the good of these people.

……

"Mr. Akiyama, the low-level illness has been going on for so many days, and it has caused trouble for you and the police station." The first thing Zhou Sen did when he arrived at the Nangang Police Station was to ask for Akiyama's help.

"What did Zhou Senjun say, people eat whole grains, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal, and this is not something you can choose." Akiyamanosuke chuckled, "How is it? Are you getting better?"

"It's almost okay, but sometimes my chest still feels uncomfortable." Zhou Sen stroked his left chest and said.

"You're not particularly nervous about this job. Besides, you should report to the police academy, right?" Akiyama asked.

"Yes, I was supposed to go, but I was delayed due to illness, so I might not be able to catch up with the training schedule," Zhou Sen said.

"It's okay, just take the final exam later. There is a precedent for this in the police academy. Your situation is special!" Akiyama nosuke laughed. Zhou Sen's situation is very special. Not at police academy.

It's just that he wouldn't tell Zhou Sen about these arrangements. When he got there, he would understand what was going on.

"Thank you, Mr. Akiyama."

"Hand over your work to Secretary Jin, and prepare for special training." Akiyamanosuke ordered.

"Yes, I will resign from my humble position."

……

Zhou Sen knew that there was a high probability that he would never return to the Nangang Police Station. Apart from Gu Lao Liu and the others, there was nothing worthy of his nostalgia.

As for these former colleagues, in fact, most of them have no friendship. Some people only made friends with him because they wanted to get rich from him, but now, he doesn't have much interaction with these people.

Come to think of it, it actually felt a little bit like that.

In less than two months, his life experience has undergone a shocking change. Since then, there have been no years of peace, and the days to come will definitely be full of dangers and turmoil.

No matter what, he had to go down this road, and he had no other choice.

"Zhou Sen, let me tell you about Shibuya that Mr. Anthony's ashes will arrive at Bingcheng Railway Station the day after tomorrow, and an obituary will be issued at that time, and how to arrange the funeral is up to you!" Zhou Sen replied, "Sen "Remember, Anna brought him a message.

"Papa Anthony is a member of the Orthodox Church. His funeral should be held according to the etiquette of the Orthodox Church." Zhou Sen said.

"Which church is it arranged for?"

"I bought a cemetery next to the Dormition Church on Xinshi Street. Let's put the sacrifice and memorial ceremony there. Keep everything simple." Zhou Sen said.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements."
