Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Zhang Anping received two messages.

News 1: According to the information sent by Jiang Sian, thanks to his "efforts", Matsumuro Yoshitaka, Tsukamoto Seiji and the other two divided the 3 million yen bail. He kept 400,000 yen as a reserve, and the remaining 600,000 was given to him to handle.

Message 2: Cen An-yen passed on information from Jiang Sian that the Japanese army had obtained more than 7 million yen after the large-scale arrest, of which more than 2 million would be supplied to the expeditionary army, 3 million would be divided among the three of them, and the remaining 2 million would be given to him as bribes.

Of the 3 million yen he could use, 600,000 would be handed over to the Military Control Commission, 500,000 would be used as bribes, and the remaining 1.9 million would all be handed over to the organization except for 100,000.

"This brat!"

Zhang Anping smiled and cursed, then began to prepare the files.

In the files he recorded: Jiang Sian handed over 150,000 yen as funding.

Well, this is a story about a golden pot that turned into an ordinary teapot...

As the mastermind behind the transformation of the golden pot into a teapot, Zhang Anping now has 3.03 million yen in his hands.

Among them, only 150,000 and 630,000 yen need to be transferred, and the remaining yen are all "black accounts".

"If Matsumuro Yoshitaka and Tsukamoto Seiji knew that they worked so hard for more than 20 days, and in the end I took the lion's share, would they be so mad that they die?"

Zhang Anping shrugged. It didn't matter whether he was angry or not. What was important was that the money must be used wisely, so that it would be worthy of the efforts of those arrested.

Yu Xiuning's footsteps were heard, and Zhang Anping knocked on the door just as he put away the deposit slips:
"Teacher, there's news from No. 76 that the Japanese have discovered that Li Lixing is missing."

"Did you find it?"

Zhang Anping showed a hint of mockery, but it was too late!

……

It’s really late!

On that day, the Japanese discovered that not only Li Lixing was missing, but even his family members who went to "worship Buddha" had disappeared early. Now they understood that this was not a disappearance, but an escape!

It was not until this time that Matsumuro Yoshitaka realized that he had made a mistake. He underestimated Li Lixing's sense of smell and his courage. He always thought that he was just cooking a running dog and why should he care about the running dog's feelings. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, he was taught a lesson by the running dog.

找！
We must dig three feet deep to find Li Lixing!
Matsumuro Yoshitaka deployed a large number of spies to the concession, and together with the Huang Dao Society, they searched for Li Lixing's whereabouts - the reason for doing so was that someone claimed to have seen Li Lixing in the International Settlement in the afternoon.

This was naturally a sleight of hand that Zhang Anping prepared for the Japanese. It was not to hide Li Lixing's whereabouts, but to delay the Japanese's actions, so that the Japanese would not give up looking for Li Lixing at this time and turn to the [suspect list] or [suspicious list].

The Japanese were fooled and spent half an afternoon and a whole night searching for Li Lixing in the extravagant concession. However, the final result was only a suitcase confirmed to belong to Li Lixing. In the suitcase, they found some documents that made Matsumuro Yoshitaka's eyelids twitch - all of which were information about the Japanese's secret execution of innocent people, including detailed burial sites.

"We can't let this news get out!" Matsumuro Yoshitaka's face turned pale. Shanghai must be stable and panic cannot be caused. These bodies that were secretly shot in the name of sending laborers must never be known to the public.

The information found in Li Lixing's suitcase undoubtedly proves that Li Lixing was very likely to disclose this information in retaliation through newspapers in the concession.

So he ordered:

"Find a way to dig out these bodies and transport them away! We can't let anyone find them!"

The top moves his mouth, the bottom runs and breaks his legs.

Following Matsumuro Yoshitaka's order, agents from Unit 76 were assigned in the middle of the night to transfer the bodies of those secretly executed over the past year.

"Li Lixing, this is a nuisance! We must find him out! We can't let him talk nonsense outside!"

Tsukamoto's face was equally ashen. He never expected that Li Lixing, the always docile lapdog, would actually stab them just when they were about to have a decisive battle with Doihara.

Fortunately, both he and Matsumuro Yoshitaka thought that there was still time - even if Li Lixing delivered this information that could not be seen by anyone to the newspaper now, it would not be published until the day after tomorrow, so they still had at least one day and one night.

If all else fails, we'll have to keep a close eye on all newspapers in the concession starting tomorrow night to prevent them from publishing articles.

But... they were wrong!
Two hours later, with the revival of the city and the clear shouts of newsboys, thunder... suddenly appeared!
"Selling newspapers! Latest news, revealing the truth about the brutal Japanese rule in Shanghai!"

"The secret service's shameful activities are exposed!"

"Decoding the brutal struggle between Japanese spies! Doihara wanted to be the emperor of Shanghai!"

"14 mass graves! Detailed description of the mass graves around Shanghai!"

"Revealing the secrets of the Luojing massacre two years ago! Three thousand people were massacred in March!"

"The October 3rd tragedy is exposed! The Japanese are cruel and brutal!"

"【Suspicious List】Exposed! A top-secret list of people the Japanese are about to arrest!"

Amid the crisp shouts of newsboys, news reports about Japan's spy agency were exposed and displayed before the eyes of the people of Shanghai. Although these newspapers could only be circulated within the concession, it did not affect the rapid spread of the news in Shanghai.

What surprised Shanghai residents the most was the "Suspicious List". The Japanese had just ended a brutal mass arrest, and more than 10,000 arrested people had been squeezed out of huge amounts of money. Unexpectedly, just after they had squeezed all the money out, these beasts were thinking of once again attacking the arrested people who had just been freed.

A large number of released prisoners decisively chose to flee after hearing the news - the Longhua and Zhonghe camps were like hell to them, and no one wanted to go through it again. Moreover, the Japanese were cruel and ruthless and had drained their financial resources. If they were locked up again, how could they have the money to give to the Japanese!

Shanghai, which had regained some vitality after the large-scale arrests, fell into panic again after hearing this news.

But the most panicked were Matsumuro Yoshitaka and Tsukamoto.

They originally thought that Li Lixing had not had time to tell the newspaper about all the shameful things he had done, but they didn't expect that Li Lixing had already done it!

Looking at the newspapers in front of him and the eye-catching contents on them, Tsukamoto's heart was filled with despair.

It's bad luck!
Matsumuro Yoshitaka's Qi cultivation skills were obviously better than Tsukamoto's. He quickly flipped through the reports one after another. When he saw the news about the burial pit, he suddenly reacted:
"be cheated!"

Tsukamoto was already disheartened and ignored him completely.

Matsumuro Yoshitaka glanced at Tsukamoto angrily, and then called out to his secretary:

"Hurry up and tell Wang Qinghan to have the people at Unit 76 evacuate immediately! Stop moving the bodies!"

But he was slow to react, and the secretary came in right after he left:
"Director, Wang Qinghan reported that No. 76 was photographed by a large number of reporters during the excavation process."

"Baga! They're all good-for-nothings!"

Matsumuro Ryotaka cursed loudly.

At this moment, he finally realized that the luggage of Li Lixing found yesterday was actually a trap - the other party deliberately led them and made him make a misjudgment!
The relocation of the burial pit was thus confirmed!
Is that all?

When his eyes fell on the words "suspect list", the chaos in his head exploded at that moment.

"Contact Mizuno immediately and have him arrest the people on the [Suspect List]!"

The secretary said, "Chief, Mizuno-kun is seriously short-handed."

The agents from No. 76 were sent to dig a hole. All the agents that the Matsumuro Agency could mobilize were searching for Li Lixing in the concession, and Mizuno was even there!

"Use as many people as possible to arrest him immediately!"

"Hi Yi!"

But an hour and a half later, Yukihei Mizuno sent the following message:

The 47 suspicious persons found so far are all suspected to be missing!
"idiot!"

Now Matsumuro Yoshitaka's guess was confirmed, and he was so angry that he could no longer hold back and roared.

Being plotted!

"It is very likely that Li Lixing has already defected to the Military Control Commission or the underground party - it should be the Military Control Commission. This layout is very familiar. It must be Xu Baichuan and Zhang Xiao from the Military Control Commission!"

Matsumuro Yoshitaka gritted his teeth and said, "They didn't do nothing during this period of time hiding behind the scenes. They did a lot of things! Now is the time for them to make a move!"

But Tsukamoto didn't care whether he was being plotted against or not, instead he asked blankly: "Matsumuro-kun, are we finished?"

Is it over?

Only then did Matsumuro Yoshitaka think of his most desperate situation at the moment, and an uncontrollable anger arose in his body. The newspapers on the table became extremely dazzling. With anger burning in his head, he rushed over and overturned the table to the ground like a madman, as if this would prevent him from being affected by these terrible contents.

"idiot!"

He lost his composure and jumped onto the newspaper and stomped on it hard, venting his anger. After venting his anger, he sat down on the ground powerlessly.

Seiji Tsukamoto was right. This time, all Doihara needed was a gentle push from behind, and he, Tsukamoto, would collapse like a sand castle.

As luck would have it, when I thought of Doihara, a newspaper article caught my eye, and the title of the article was Doihara:
Deciphering the brutal struggle between Japanese spies! Doihara wanted to be the emperor of Shanghai!
"Ok?"

The content of the title aroused the interest of Matsumuro Yoshitaka. He suppressed his discomfort, pulled the newspaper over and read it quickly.

The news under this title presents the struggle of the Japanese secret service from the perspective of Li Lixing - but in these contents, Matsumuro Yoshitaka noticed that in this way of portrayal, Doihara was more like an out-and-out villain.

Because of Doihara, a large-scale arrest was launched in Shanghai, because Doihara wanted to arrest resistance elements at the cost of destroying the current stable situation in Shanghai...

After reading the above content, a brilliant plan to survive from a desperate situation appeared in Matsumuro Yoshitaka's mind.

[This... might be a plot by the resistance elements! ]

At this time, reason gave Matsumuro Yoshitaka a warning, but his reluctance to give up power and status made him ignore the warning of reason.

[Power is only power when it is in your own hands! ]

After making up his mind, Matsumuro Yoshitaka pushed the newspaper in front of Tsukamoto Seiji:

"Tsukamoto-kun, look at this!"

Tsukamoto took the newspaper blankly, and after reading it for a while, he threw it down in frustration.

This shows the gap between the two.

Matsumuro Yoshitaka suppressed his dissatisfaction with Tsukamoto: "Tsukamoto-kun, we still have a chance!"

Tsukamoto's eyes lit up, and he crawled to Matsumuro Yoshitaka:
"Matsumuro-kun, what chance?!"

"Print this content without limit, and find a way to let the people in Nanjing Headquarters see its contents!"

Matsumuro Yoshitaka said with a determined look: "If we succeed, we will turn defeat into victory! If we fail, Tsukamoto-kun, we will return to our homeland as losers."

"Then... let's bet!"

……

Zhang Anping has been following the news in the concession. He wants to see whether Matsumuro Yoshitaka can "receive" the signal he is giving him.

He doesn't want to change his opponent.

Matsumuro Yoshitaka and Tsukamoto are now Jiang Sian’s “good friends”, and these two stingy guys have just lost the support of the people in the secret service. If he changes his opponent, won’t all his efforts be in vain?
"If Matsumuro Yoshitaka can't receive my signal, then I will reluctantly spend some money and try to tip the balance of victory towards you two."

The manipulator behind the scenes seems to be a little stingy with money. In the future he lived in, people could buy trending searches. By the same token, in this era, you can also spend money to buy hot news.

It’s just a bit annoying to spend money to buy heat for your opponent.

But his opponent did not disappoint him. The next day, the newspapers in the concessions not only "beat up" the Japanese, but also published news such as "Uncovering the cruel struggle between Japanese spies! Doihara wanted to be the emperor of Shanghai!"

Yu Xiuning reported to Zhang Anping with a newspaper:

"Teacher, according to our investigation, a mysterious person paid major newspapers to publish this news."

"Well, it saves us money. Good, let's work hard in the back. Such gossip must be spread widely!"

"Yes!"

Although Yu Xiuning didn't know Zhang Anping's intention, she knew that her teacher would not do anything without a purpose.

So, she pushed hard.

……

Shanghai is very important to the Japanese.

Therefore, any disturbance in Shanghai would attract the attention of the expeditionary force headquarters in Nanjing.

This time, it naturally attracted the attention of the expeditionary force headquarters.

"What's going on? Matsumuro Yoshitaka promised to make Shanghai quiet within half a month! What happened? Now it's getting more and more chaotic!"

The Japanese general, who had just received two million yen plus gold bars worth 50,000 yen, started to make trouble at the meeting.

Well, it can also be understood as... acting!
"I don't think it's Matsumuro-kun's fault." Someone put a newspaper on the table. "You can take a look at it. The problems in Shanghai, after all, arose after Doihara came to Shanghai. Although Doihara-kun had good intentions, he didn't understand the situation in Shanghai after all."

"That's right. If it weren't for Matsumuro-kun and his men using other methods, the Empire's losses in Shanghai during this period would be difficult to make up for!"

They didn't say "other methods" explicitly, but the meaning was very clear, which was the 2 million yen - the people present were the real people standing behind the shareholders of Okamoto Company, and now they had received tributes from Shanghai, so they naturally favored Matsumuro Yoshitaka.

After all, the contrast is clear:

Before Doihara came to Shanghai, although there were resistance elements causing trouble, the city was generally "peaceful".

"I think the main problem is the special nature of Shanghai! Shanghai has concessions. The imperial army cannot enter the concessions. The resistance elements use the concessions as shelter, so they can't be killed! Matsumuro-kun's ability is obvious to all. After all, Wang was instigated by Matsumuro-kun and Tsukamoto Seiji alone."

"How do we deal with Doihara? He was sent by the headquarters after all."

"His mission is to contact Mr. Wang! Isn't Mr. Wang going to the mainland to find the Prime Minister? Doihara's mission is also completed!"

"Makes sense."

"Then there is one more thing. Where is the Doihara Mansion?"

"Let them coexist!" The person in charge who had been silent said, "Let Yingzuo Zhenzhao make the decision. I want to see whether the stubborn problem of resistance elements in Shanghai cannot be eradicated because of the failure of the Matsumuro Organization, which has been replaced by new leaders, or whether it is a stubborn problem that is difficult to eradicate!"

"Hi Yi!"

A meeting ended, and the notice on Shanghai’s handling of the situation followed.

【Kagesa Tadaaki takes over the Doihara Organization.】

[Strictly order the Shanghai Songshi Office to restore public order in Shanghai within three days! ]

As for Doihara, there was no arrangement in the notice, but after Doihara received the notice, he knew that he had been defeated inexplicably.

While in Nanjing, he looked towards Shanghai with a blank expression.

He couldn't see Shanghai, but he had an inexplicable feeling that there was an enormous beast lurking in Shanghai.

"Maybe I'm old."

Doihara murmured to himself. This was a rare failure in his career - although he had never focused his main energy on Shanghai, no one would even think that he had failed.

But for him, if his will cannot be implemented in Shanghai, it will be a failure!

At this moment, the secretary came in hurriedly:
"General, President Okamoto wants to see you."

"He's looking for me? Haha..." Doihara laughed, his face looking extremely strange. (End of this chapter)
