above the point of the knife

Chapter 242 Family Dinner
Come out of Peace Cinema.

Zhou Sen took Bai Yulan and walked north along Datong Street. They lived near the train station, which was at the northernmost end of Datong Street.

The first time the two of them watched a movie was actually in Xinjing, and it was a movie that beautified Japanese aggression and promoted communism.

The film is called "Song of Prynne".

In fact, in the Northeast, you can only see such brainwashing and beautifying films. It is impossible for films that expose and reflect the brutality of the Japanese invaders to be shown in cinemas.

"Xiao Mori, is there really a girl like Bai Lan?" Bai Yulan asked, because she and the heroine of the movie both have the surname Bai, so she was very touched.

While watching the movie, Zhou Sen could clearly feel that her mood fluctuated greatly, especially that Bai Lan fell in love with the Japanese without hesitation, and all the Japanese portrayed in the movie were handsome, upright, kind, and even all-rounder in both civil and military affairs. , perfect.

But in reality, there is no such Japanese at all, and they are not even considered.

The most ridiculous thing is that the story is about the construction of the South Manchuria Railway, which was basically built by forced Chinese laborers, but it became the brainchild of the Japanese. The beautification of plundering has moved a Chinese girl deeply, and she fell in love with a Japanese with all her heart.

It's just ridiculous.

At the end of the movie, those Japanese wearing kimonos stood up and applauded, while Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan sat silently, their fingernails deeply embedded in the palms of their hands. I will never forget it in my life.

Maybe they bought the corner seats in the back and no one noticed them, otherwise they might have been in trouble just because they didn't get a standing ovation.

"Komori..."

"Yulan, if you don't want to go tonight and regret it now, I don't blame you." Zhou Sen could understand her mood at the moment.

"No, I'm going. I know you can't help yourself. If it wasn't for me, you might as well just leave, or even stay in Khabarovsk and never come back." Bai Yulan turned her head and said.

"it is good."

……

"Xiao Mori, you said I wore that dress to go there?"

"Don't make the color too bright. We are guests, so just don't overwhelm the host." Zhou Sen gave Bai Yulan a general opinion.

"Okay." Bai Yulan picked out a coat with a darker color, and a dark red scarf. Her hair was tied behind her head, leaving a section in front. This is a married woman's hair bun.

"Xiao Mori, we are not wearing wedding rings, will this be impolite?" Bai Yulan asked.

"It doesn't matter. We are away from home and act in a low-key manner. It doesn't matter if we don't wear a wedding ring." Zhou Sen said, "These are small details."

"Okay, can you bring my lipstick?"

"The two of us are going to the banquet. Let's order a dinner for Ah Xiang and Wu En, so as to save them going out to eat." Zhou Sen took the lipstick and handed it to Bai Yulan.

"Alright."

"Then I'll go down and make a phone call." Zhou Sen nodded.

……

Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan sat on the benches in the hotel lobby with presents and waited until six o'clock before they saw a black car stop at the door.

Ono, who was dressed in a black police uniform, got off the cab and ran in quickly. When he saw Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan, he bent over and apologized: "Mr. Zhou Sen, Mrs. Zhou, sorry for being late."

"It's okay, we're not in a hurry anyway." Zhou Sen handed over the small gift box containing the lighter from Bai Yulan's hand.

"Ono-kun, a little gift, happy new year!"

There was a hint of surprise on Ono's face, and he immediately reached out to take it, and said happily: "Zhou Senjun, Mrs. Zhou, please!"

"Thank you, Ono-kun." Zhou Sen nodded slightly.

Zhou Sen picked up the bought wine and silk, and walked towards the car.

Ono knew that this was a gift bought by Zhou Sen and his wife for Shibuya Saburo and his wife, so he hurriedly opened the trunk in advance and let Zhou Sen put it in.

Zhou Sen pulled the car, let Bai Yulan go in first, and then got in himself.

"Officer Shibuya was very happy when he heard that you were here. He canceled the reception tonight and specially hosted a banquet at home for you and Mrs. Zhou!"

"Shibuya-sensei, he's too polite."

The Japanese are like this, but when he needs you and uses you, he will really treat you with "love", but once you lose your value, he will abandon you like a shoe, and will not love the so-called old love at all.

If you are confused by this illusion and you are still grateful, then you will cry when the time comes.

The roads in Xinjing are all newly built, and the cars are fast and stable when driving on them, and the new city is not big. Saburo Shibuya's family lives in Yoshino Town, not far from the hotel where they live.

Ono obviously became more enthusiastic and exclusive. Along the way, he also introduced some situations in Xinjing to Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan, some of which were related to the reform of the Ministry of Public Security.

Although the two talked in Japanese.

She didn't shy away from the existence of Bai Yulan at all, because Bai Yulan couldn't understand Japanese.

Saburo Shibuya lived in a small Japanese-style building in Xinjing, mainly with a wooden structure. Ono drove the car directly into the yard at the entrance of the small building.

The lights were on inside the house, and the door was open.

Saburo Shibuya was wearing a kimono and stood on the steps of the door with his wife to welcome Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan.

It's pretty grand.

Zhou Sen quickly took the gift from the trunk, and together with Bai Yulan, they came to Shibuya Saburo and his wife and bowed: "Mr. Shibuya, madam, good evening, sorry to trouble you."

"Zhou Senjun, Mrs. Zhou, please!" Shibuya Saburo smiled slightly, glanced at Bai Yulan, and then quickly looked away.

He expected Zhou Sen to come, but he couldn't guarantee whether Bai Yulan would come together, but as the deputy director of the Bingcheng Police Department, he knew something about it.

Therefore, he was even more concerned about whether Bai Yulan would come or not, otherwise, he would not have a family banquet at home.

Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan took off their shoes at the door, handed them to the servants to put them away, and then walked into the living room, where he presented the presents to Saburo Shibuya, Mrs. Shibuya and the young master.

Seeing that what Zhou Sen brought was Kiku Masamune's sake, and it was the most expensive sake, Saburo Shibuya showed a hint of surprise.

Although he and Zhou Sen are good teachers and students, but his personal relationship with Zhou Sen is not deep, and his preferences have never been told to him.

How did Zhou Sen know, and bought his favorite Chrysanthemum Masamune Sake.

He glanced at Ono who came in with Zhou Sen, and Ono Lianman lowered his head slightly to avoid his eyes.

"Teacher, don't blame Ono-kun. I called Ono-kun to ask for advice. He couldn't stop my soft-heartedness, so he said it." Zhou Sen observed his words and quickly explained for Ono.

Those who are in positions of power are most taboo about being betrayed by people around them, especially private matters such as their own preferences.

"It's also because of your face. I guess other people don't dare to talk nonsense." Saburo Shibuya nodded slightly. He really cared about this matter, but Zhou Sen was also careful, otherwise he would I will not go to Ono anymore.

"Wow, such beautiful silk..." Mrs. Shibuya took out the silk from the gift box and said excitedly and joyfully.

"As long as Madam likes it." Bai Yulan nodded with a busy smile.

"I like it, I like it, I want to use him to make a new dress, I want to make a kimono, no, a cheongsam!" Mrs. Shibuya's eyes were full of joy.

Saburo Shibuya blushed slightly, a little embarrassed, how could his wife look like an ignorant country woman.

"Zhou Senjun, Mrs. Zhou, let's have dinner at the restaurant first!" Shibuya Saburo invited.

"Yes."

In the restaurant, kneel behind the table.

Mrs. Shibuya personally served the dishes, salmon sashimi, tempura, deep-fried shrimp, octopus balls, miso soup and sushi!

This is already very rich for Japanese family banquets, but for Chinese people, this little food is not enough to fit between the teeth.

Considering that the Japanese are short, not strong, and don't eat much, it's not difficult to understand.

Even the wine he drank was as light as water.

In the middle of the meal, Bai Yulan voluntarily left the table to discuss with Mrs. Shibuya how to use the piece of silk she gave her to make a beautiful cheongsam.

Now, the three men in the restaurant can talk freely.

Zhou Sen roughly talked about the big and small things that happened in the Bingcheng Police Department after Shibuya Saburo left.

Although he also reported on the phone, the phone call was not as detailed as what he said face-to-face.

Saburo Shibuya also knew about Toshi Yamamoto's little tricks, but he just arrived in Xinjing, and everything was complicated, so the Bingcheng side was naturally out of reach and powerless.

The "Troy" project was one of his painstaking efforts in Ice City. How could it be made into a wedding dress? Moreover, although the last Haraha incident did not play much role, Zhou Sen and Anna made the royal family members Ando Shenghou came back after being rescued.

This is also the collateral benefit brought by this plan. If it weren't for the need to rescue Ando Morihou, how could he have exposed Zhou Sen and Ando?
"Toshi Yamamoto, you don't need to worry about him. I'm about to take over the post of Deputy Minister of Public Security. The 'Troy' plan is going on as usual. We must ensure that the intelligence from the Russian Far East continues to flow in." Saburo Shibuya drank a lot of wine, His cheeks were flushed, and he gave a disdainful expression to Toshi Yamamoto, and couldn't help revealing a secret to Zhou Sen.

"Congratulations, Mr. Shibuya." Zhou Sen was surprised, but quickly raised his glass to congratulate.The deputy director of the Ministry of Public Security is actually the actual person in charge of the Puppet Manchukuo Army and Police Xiante. According to the control of Manchukuo, the ministers of each department are Manchurians, but that is a symbol. The real power is in the hands of the deputy, and the deputy All are Japanese.

From the center of the Puppet Manchukuo to the localities, it is the same.

Therefore, the puppet Manchukuo is basically a puppet regime of the Japanese.

"We still have to keep it secret, and we can only say it after the final announcement." Saburo Shibuya waved his hand proudly and said.

"Yes, let's make a toast to Shibuya-sensei's promotion to Deputy Chief of the Public Security Department!" Zhou Sen raised his glass and said excitedly.

"cheers!"

"Zhou Senjun, I will ask Ono to give you a frequency and call sign later. Don't you have a radio station in your hand now? You can get in touch with me at any time. If it is inconvenient to talk on the phone, you can contact me directly through the radio station." Gu Saburo ordered.

"Yes, Shibuya-sensei." Zhou Sen responded quickly, which gave him the privilege of directly suing.
