20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 341 His heart is available

It's May in the blink of an eye, the weather is getting warmer and the wind is gentle.

West of Fengtian City, Nantie Local Office.

Translator Tan looked anxious and was pacing back and forth in the corridor, stopping from time to time and putting his ear against the door.

In the office of the Investigation Department, Ryuji Miyata was sitting in a chair talking on the phone, as if he had been humiliated in some way, his face solemn and gloomy.

His voice was low, and he was speaking eagerly to the other end of the phone in his native language, such as "a shame for the empire," "a major diplomatic failure," and "Okuma Shigenobu is a fool."

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded unhurried and even a little smug, saying that this was their opportunity.

Translator Tan didn't hear very clearly.

But one thing is certain. After talking for more than ten minutes, Miyata Ryuuji's mood finally calmed down, and he confirmed in a very low voice: "Do you want Nakayama-kun to come back again?"

Then, there were "Hi, Hi" sounds one after another.

"Click!"

He had already heard about what Jiang Lianheng had done in the provincial capital recently, and he was afraid that one day there would be a bullet under his pillow, or someone would knock on the door in the middle of the night.

After hanging up the phone, Miyata Ryuji rushed to the door and shouted: "Come in!"

He knew very well that the twenty-one principles were already difficult to achieve. Protests in various places had also begun and could not be contained at all. However, he had just received the news from Shangfeng and quickly changed his mind.

He looked a little depressed, because no matter how he looked at it, Clause No. 5 could not be reached.

The most critical thing is that within three or two months, this move condensed the will of the Chinese people to an unprecedented height, stalling their plans that they had been trying to plunge China into chaos for many years.

Translator Tan said: "Mr. Miyata, there is no need to be discouraged. From my experience, the people here are just a piece of loose sand and cannot resist for long!"

Miyata Ryuuji nodded and said: "Leave this matter to him, you don't show up at any time."

In his opinion, Okuma Shigenobu bypassed the imperial meeting and secretly submitted the Twenty-One Points to Fang Datou. He naively thought that he could swallow up China, but in the end, Japan fell into a diplomatic crisis.

……

Miyata Ryuji said angrily: "Those white-skinned pigs will only hinder the empire's cause, and the British cannot be trusted at all!"

Miyata Ryuji was very satisfied with this.

"When will Suo Cheng arrive in Fengtian?" Miyata Ryuji asked.

His selfishness stems from fear.

"I understand, I understand!" Translator Tan quickly expressed his loyalty, "I have identified Mr. Miyata, and the others have nothing to do with me."

Translator Tan hurriedly opened the door, walked into the office, and said flatteringly: "Mr. Miyata, the patrol station has already taken care of it. Although we can't do anything, there is absolutely no problem in visiting the prison."

Incompetent bungler!

Miyata Ryuuji is in the intelligence department, so the information he gets is naturally more extensive.

If you can't stop it, take advantage of it.

"Tonight." Translator Tan replied.

Immediately afterwards, Translator Tan poured another glass of water for the Japanese and asked tentatively: "Sir, is the treaty about to be signed? When we are unrestricted in Fengtian, we must get rid of that kid Jiang Lianheng, who dares to attack the imperial army You can’t get used to people like this who act arrogantly in front of you!”

Miyata Ryuji said bitterly: "This place was originally a mess, but that old guy Shigenobu Okuma is a fool!"

"Very good." Miyata Ryuuji nodded and reiterated, "Don't tell anyone else about this matter except me. No one, not even other people in the investigation department, can tell it. Do you understand?"

……

Fengtian Patrol Headquarters, detention room.

There was a sound of iron chains, and a low voice of conversation came from outside the door.

"Can't stay any longer, just fifteen minutes!"

"Thank you, Mr. Cha. Can I go in?"

"Eh? Wait a minute! You don't have anything with you, do you?" "How is that possible? I'm so brave, but I don't dare to cause trouble in the police station! If you don't believe me, you can come and search my body. , search whatever you want!”

"Okay, okay, let's go in!"

The door closed, and there was a faint sound of footsteps in the cell corridor.

Pei Zhongmin and a dozen other students immediately approached the cell, tilting their heads to look at the situation outside, hoping that their parents would come to visit the prison.

Although the students are a little thin and look tired, they look in good condition. At least they have never been tortured. Until now, they have not been transferred to a formal prison, but have been dragged in the holding room. Captain Zhao is under great pressure. Just imagine.

The visitor gradually came over. He looked to be in his thirties, with a shiny slicked back hair and a cigarette butt in his mouth.

Pei Zhongmin and others looked at each other with doubts in their eyes - whose relative is this?

"You are all students, right?" Cigarette butt stood at the door of the cell.

"Who are you looking for?" Pei Zhongmin took the lead and asked.

The cigarette butt said in a tone of voice: "I'm looking for you, every one of you."

The students were confused for a moment.

"I've heard that you are all students from various schools who took the lead in protesting the 21st Article, right?" Cigarette Butt continued, minding his own business, "I know you were framed. You didn't kill anyone at all. The reason why you are locked up in this prison is Here, it’s just that someone doesn’t want you to protest!”

Hearing this, the students were so excited that they almost cried. No matter who came, they just nodded desperately and said: "Yes, yes, yes, we didn't kill anyone at all! Are you the person in charge of investigating the case? When can we go out? ?”

"Don't make any noise!"

Pei Zhongmin interrupted everyone sharply, looked at the butt of the cigarette suspiciously, and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you who I am before I'm sure of your determination." The butt of the cigarette suddenly said solemnly, "You only need to know one thing. Like you, I devote my life to saving the nation!"

"Then we are one of our own!" the students said happily, "Then can you help us out? And more, have you signed the twenty-one items?"

The cigarette butt pretended to be sad and said: "I haven't signed it yet, but the situation is not optimistic. If this continues, I'm afraid I have to sign it."

I don't dare to worry about my country despite my humble position.

After hearing this, the students' enthusiasm suddenly turned into resentful expressions. Only Pei Zhongmin remained calm.

He asked doubtfully: "Why did you come to the patrol station and tell us this? We don't know you!"

As soon as these words came out, the students all felt a little strange.

But the butt of the cigarette said: "When we are facing a national crisis, what difference does it make if we know each other or not? Only by sharing the same hatred and uniting all walks of life can we save the nation and survive! To be honest -"

He looked around suspiciously, then lowered his voice and said: "In the year of Xinhai, I had an uprising in southern Liaoning... So, do you understand?"

The eyes of all the students immediately cast admiring glances.

"You are a revolutionary!"

"Shh!" The cigarette butt quickly made a silencing gesture, "Do you know why I don't want to reveal my name this time? I have to confirm your position."

"Of course our position is to oppose the 21 Articles and protest to the East!"

"No, no, no, protesting to Dongyang can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Think about it, why did Dongyang propose the 21st, and isn't it because Fang Datou wants to be the emperor? He is the culprit and the public enemy of the world! Without the 21st, There will be twenty-two and twenty-three! Only by destroying Fang Datou can we save the nation!"

"That's right! You shouldn't negotiate at all. Negotiation is weakness!" The students nodded. "This kind of treaty that is humiliating and humiliating the country. If we just sit down and negotiate, it is betrayal!"

The cigarette butt smiled and said: "Yes, it's because of this that I am running around, uniting all walks of life to denounce Fang Datou and make him step down. He must not be allowed to become the emperor!"

"Sir, you are righteous! Sir, you are righteous!"

The students were sincerely impressed.

The butt of the cigarette grinned, and continued: "I have also heard the names of several classmates. I came here this time just to see your attitude. If you are determined to change, I will find a way to rescue you!"

"Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world! Go through fire and water without hesitation!"
