Martial Arts Song

Chapter 312 Achieved
"..."

Hisao Tengchuan's words caused a brief silence in the room.

In fact, both Keita Harada and Seiji Kamiizumi had anticipated this possibility, but neither of them said it out loud.

But now that Hisao Tengchuan has exposed it, they have to face this problem.

After a moment of silence, Harada Keita looked at Tengchuan Hisao, narrowed his eyes and asked: "How did you come to this conclusion?"

Tengchuan Hisao explained, "The nationalism of the Central Country people is quite strong. Once people know what Naoto-kun did in East City, unless the person who captured him is from the Central Country official, then there is a chance that he can be imprisoned and interrogated for intelligence. Otherwise, there is basically only one possibility, which is to execute him."

"As for the protest incident that took place in Dongcheng this time, although it can be seen that someone was behind all of this, the method used was not like that used by the Central State officials. Therefore, I personally think that the probability that Naoto-kun is still alive is not high."

His words silenced Harada Keita and Kamiizumi Shizuji again.

Especially Kamiizumi Shizue, his frown was almost wrinkled into a "川" character.

After another moment of silence, Harada Keita spoke again, nodding slightly in agreement, "What happened in Dongcheng is indeed not like the methods used by the Central Government. I sent people to investigate, and those newspapers got the news through an unsigned letter, and they tricked nearby children into delivering it with candy. Those children couldn't clearly describe the appearance of the person who asked them to deliver the letter, and even if they could, the descriptions were not consistent, some looked like a coachman, some looked like a newspaper seller, or some looked like a woman."

At this point, Harada Keita shook his head and said, "It is certain that this was done by a fairly large organization, but it should not be the Central Government's official. Because the letter also slandered the Central Government's police station, which is shaking the foundation of the Central Government's credibility. At this moment, the Central Government's official would not do such a thing."

"That……"

Tengchuan Hisao showed a hint of hesitation on his face and asked, "Are we still going to investigate this matter?"

In the current "huhai" Dongcheng, the migrant workers from other places are very excited, and their long-standing resentment against the local police station has also been ignited.

If Liuying's people continue to investigate in Dongcheng, the risks they will face will be very high.

Foolish people are sometimes easy to control, but they can be very scary when they get out of control.

Although Ryuo's spies can speak Central Chinese, there are still some Ryuo accents in their voices. The organization in Dongcheng has a strong person who can force Takasugi Naoto to confess the murders he has committed, and with his ability, he can hear these accents.

Therefore, Tengchuan Hisao couldn't help but feel worried.

They still don't know who is controlling all this on the other side. If they continue to investigate rashly, it will only increase the consumption of Ryuying's spies lurking there.

Now everyone in East City is calling for the destruction of the Liuying people, so he doesn't really want to go there now.

He was only here to assist in the investigation, not to die.

"If Naoto-kun is truly gone, then there's no need to continue investigating."

After listening to Tengchuan Hisao's question, Harada Keita said calmly: "It is not worth making unnecessary sacrifices for a dead person. The glory of our Great Ryuo Empire is the most important. However, the person behind this must be found out. Since he was able to capture Naoto and planned this chaos, his strength and organizational scale are worthy of our attention. After the storm of this matter is over, Tengchuan, you will investigate secretly. With such a large-scale personnel transfer, I believe that with your ability, you will definitely be able to follow the clues and find useful clues."

After hearing this, Tengchuan Hisao, having achieved his goal of not going to East City at this point, said nothing more and lowered his head and replied, "Yes!"

Seeing this, Harada Keita nodded and continued, "Okay, Tengchuan, you go out first. I have something to say to Kamiizumi."

"Yes!"

After hearing this, Tengchuan Hisao immediately responded again.

Then he stood up, turned around and left the room.

After Tengchuan Hisao left, Harada Keita looked at Kamiizumi Shizuji who had been frowning, and said calmly: "Kamiizumi, you also heard what Tengchuan said. Naoto is likely gone, so our plan... can only be carried out by you."

Ueizumi Shizue, who had been frowning and silent, was silent for a long time after hearing this, and finally nodded and said, "I understand."

After saying that, he stood up, turned around and walked out of the house.

"Wow."

When he walked to the sliding door and opened it halfway, he stood still and said, "I need to make some preparations. Since I want glory, I must be the brightest light that illuminates the Great Ryusakura Empire!"

Hearing his words, Keita Harada, who was kneeling, did not say anything, but stood up silently and saluted towards Shizuji Kamiizumi's back.

After Shizuji Kamiizumi sensed it, he walked out.

Soon, Keita Harada was the only one left in the room.

He walked to a wall in the room, picked up a scabbarded sword from a weapon rack, returned to the table and knelt down, slowly pulled out the sword, reached into his shirt pocket and pulled out a silk scarf, and began to wipe it silently without saying a word.

……

September 7th, a little after 1 p.m.

Xicheng, Jiangwan District.

Sleep Inn, Room 210.

“Gently…gently!”

The bed in the room.

Chen Qing was lying there with his upper body naked.

At the end of the bed, Qi Yi sat sideways by the window, holding one of Chen Qing's feet, and pressing quickly and hard on the sole and heel of the foot, as well as the Yongquan, Taixi, and Rangu points on the inside of the foot.

Chen Qing was pressed so hard that his brows were furrowed, and he kept shouting, "Senior Sister, can we be gentler?"

However, after hearing this, Qi Yi ignored him completely and continued to press quickly and hard as usual.

Soon, when the time was almost 1:30, Qi Yi's pressing was over.

Qi Yi simply stood up, walked to the table in the room, opened an unopened jar of wine, picked it up with her right hand, poured it on her left hand, then switched hands, took the jar with her left hand, and poured it on her right hand.

She directly used the leftover wine from practicing to wash her hands!
Chen Qing, who was lying on the bed, saw this scene and sat up from the bed. While putting on his clothes, he said, "Senior Sister, the situation in East City was really not caused by me. How could I have such great ability to organize such a big scene!"

However, facing his explanation, Qi Yi just sneered and said, "It wasn't you. The day after I told you about it, so many newspapers published news about Takasugi Naoto killing people indiscriminately? Many of them were newspapers in East City! If it wasn't you, why did you maintain a state of visualization while explaining it?"

"Senior Sister, there are such things as coincidences in the world."

Chen Qing said helplessly, "As for the reason why I continued to visualize while explaining, it was because I was drunk and you are so beautiful. I am now at the age of full of vigor and vitality, and coincidentally, I am stronger in 'cultivating essence'. It is really difficult to control my thoughts about you, and I am afraid that some distracting thoughts will make you unhappy."

"Oh, you have so many excuses. I never knew you were so eloquent when we were at Jialong Mountain."

Qi Yi sneered again, "I'm too lazy to continue talking to you. Because of what you did, we can't continue our observation of Tengchuan Hisao. Ryuying also retreated back to the concession. The Military Control Commission is now investigating who leaked the secret, and is also investigating the mastermind behind the incident in Dongcheng. I have to sign in on time every day, and the time I can spare to help you practice will become less and less. You'd better pray for the best."

When she finished speaking, she also washed her hands with wine.

She shook off the wine stains on her hands, then went straight to the wall on the other side of the room, wiped her hands with the clothes that Chen Qing had taken off and left on a chair at the foot of the wall, then walked towards the door of the room, opened the door, and left the hotel without looking back.

Seeing this, Chen Qing could only follow him helplessly.

After seeing Qi Yi off, Chen Qing closed the door. The helpless look on his face slowly disappeared, and was replaced by a thoughtful look.

"Retreating back to the concession..."

It seems that his goal was finally achieved.

After seeing the huge protest by tens of thousands of migrant workers in Dongcheng, the Ryuying family temporarily gave up on coming to Dongcheng to investigate, and their family was temporarily safe.

"I just feel a little sorry for Senior Sister..."

Of course, he was the one who caused the big commotion in East City!
However, when facing Qi Yi, he naturally couldn't admit it.

Because of the big fuss he caused in Dongcheng, the Military Control Commission began an internal investigation into the leaker and set up a sign-in system for Qi Yi, who was originally free, requiring him to sign in at a specific location on time every day.

In addition, she had to accept an internal investigation. Of course, with Qi Yi's strength as a "magic transformation" master, it was easy for her to deal with the internal investigation.

However, the job that was originally easy and free suddenly became restrictive. Qi Yi felt very uncomfortable these days.

With Qi Yi's wisdom and ability, she naturally thought of Chen Qing very quickly.

The relevant matters were just explained the day before, and on the next day there was such a big commotion in Dongcheng. How could people not have related associations?

Not to mention, Qi Yi also has the ability of "observational deduction".

Although Chen Qing cleaned himself every day when he came over these few days, he did not have Qi Yi's "observational deduction" ability after all. He didn't know what the other party could see, so it was inevitable that there would be omissions.

Therefore, when Qi Yi helped him practice martial arts these days, the intensity was quite high!
Often, Chen Qing couldn't help but shout "Be gentler!"

The explanation Qi Yi gave was the same reason given just now, but in fact, it seemed a bit like venting one's anger.

However, Chen Qing was also in the wrong.

When he thought of this method, he knew he had to "sell" Qi Yi.

But there was no other way. For the safety of the Chen family, he could only bite the bullet and "sell out his teammates"!

Of course, he chose to do this because he knew that this incident would have little impact on Qi Yi.

If it was really a very important matter, he would naturally not really betray Qi Yi.

In fact, the trust between the two sides is constantly deepening with continuous contact.

In the past few days, Chen Qing has even been considering accepting what Qi Yi had said before, the unconventional auxiliary method of practicing martial arts.

Although he has solved the current problem, after this incident, he has indirectly attracted the attention of the central government and Ryuying.

Even though he prepared several springboards when he started this incident and it is impossible to trace him back in a short period of time, if the investigation continues, he will be traced back sooner or later.

Therefore, Chen Qing became relatively eager to improve his strength.

Moreover, if he agreed to use unconventional auxiliary methods to practice, he could also appease the angry Qi Yi, which was quite cost-effective.

"After I finish dealing with some tail issues in East City, I promised my senior sister that I would start practicing with those unconventional auxiliary methods."

After making this decision in his mind, Chen Qing did not delay any longer and began to put on the clothes he had taken off.

Soon, he got dressed and left the hotel room.

I walked along the corridor to the stairs to the second floor, and then went downstairs under the ambiguous gaze of the hotel owner.

Then, when he came to the roadside, Chen Qing waved to stop a rickshaw and asked the driver to take him to the "Hongjiang" ferry on the Bund. Finally, he took a random ferry and returned to the "Sanyang" ferry in Dongcheng.

……

Dongcheng, Sanlin District.

A little after three in the afternoon, Zhaole Road.

A rickshaw was driving on this road.

Suddenly, the passenger in the car said to the driver: "Okay, let's stop here."

The driver was startled at first, then replied, "Okay~"

As he spoke, the driver braked the rickshaw and stopped it not far from the entrance of an alley.

Then the driver turned to the passenger in the car and said with a smile: "Sir, thank you for fifteen dollars."

"Ah."

The passenger in the car responded, then simply took out his money to pay the fare, got out of the car and walked into the alley next to it.

After receiving the money, the rickshaw driver subconsciously glanced at the lane number sign next to him: Lane 276.

After that, he retracted his gaze, picked up the car and left here...

In the alley.

The guest who came in walked deeper and deeper and finally stopped in front of a house with the number 24.

"Dong dong dong."

Raise your hand and knock on the door.

After a moment, there was a "crash" sound from upstairs, the sliding window opened, and a delicate face poked out of the window.

When the owner of this delicate face saw the person downstairs, he was startled at first, then turned around and shouted to the downstairs: "Xiaoying, your master is here, open the door quickly."

"Oh!"

A clear answer came from behind the door.

This was followed by the sound of hurried footsteps.

Then there was a "click" sound and the door opened.

Jiang Ying, wearing a loose training suit and with sweat stains on his forehead and cheeks, appeared in front of him.

"Master!"

Jiang Ying looked at the person outside the door and shouted happily.

That's right.

The person outside the door was none other than Chen Qing who had returned from West City!
And this is Lin Manli’s home, No. 276, Lane 24, Zhaole Road.

"Ah."

Looking at Jiang Ying, who was very happy and had sweat all over his forehead and cheeks, Chen Qing smiled and nodded slightly, then said, "You can continue to practice."

"Good~"

Jiang Ying agreed, then returned to the yard inside the house and continued practicing the "Tiger Form Fist".

At the same time, the sound of "thump thump" of footsteps coming down the stairs was heard.

After a while, Lin Manli came downstairs. She was wearing a long skirt and had her hair hastily put up with a wooden hairpin. She had a lot of fine hair hanging down her cheeks.

"You're here."

Lin Manli looked at Chen Qing and asked with a smile, while raising her hand to smooth the hair hanging down from her temples.

"Ah."

After hearing this, Chen Qing nodded, then smiled and said, "If you have time, please thank Sister Lan for me."

"what?"

When Lin Manli heard this, she was stunned.
