Years of the Republic of China 1913

Chapter 3 Potential Enemies

Because it was the New Year, Lu*shun Wharf looked much busier than usual, and the ship they took had fewer passengers, so they left the port area soon after the ship docked.

Both Chen Shaobai and Xu Tongxiong are familiar with this place. They have been here many years ago, so they didn't notify the other party to pick up the guests before they came. After getting off the ship, they went directly to the hotel where they stayed.

After a short break, Chen Shaobai called his old friend Suzuki Sadaichi, and said that he and Suzuki Sadaichi had known each other for several years, and the two knew each other long before Suzuki Sadaichi took up the intelligence work in China, and this was still in Japan. .

"Suzuki-kun, I'm Chen Shaobai!"

"Chen Jun! Have you already arrived in Kanto Prefecture?" Suzuki Sadaichi asked in surprise on the other end of the phone.

"Yeah, I just got off the boat and I'm in the hotel now, so I called you before I could take a break." Chen Shaobai laughed and said to his old friend.

Suzuki Sadaichi couldn't help scolding on the other end of the phone: "Chen Jun, you should have sent me a telegram before you came. I would have picked you up if I knew it earlier. By the way, what hotel are you staying in? I'll help you Arrange to live in another place? It will be more comfortable."

"No need, I think it's not bad here, anyway, it doesn't matter where you live." Chen Shaobai said with a smile: "Mr. Suzuki, are you free tomorrow? I want to meet everyone, and you sent someone to send it to you." I have read that book and benefited a lot from it, thank you so much."

"We are all friends, thank you for nothing." Suzuki Zhenyi said on the other end of the phone: "Chen Jun came to Guandong Prefecture, even if I don't have time, I have to find time to entertain you. Tomorrow is of course no problem, but I have a better one." I don’t know if Chen Jun is convenient for you now?”

"what do you mean……?"

"It's only afternoon, and in the evening, I'll meet Jun Chen at the restaurant in Asakusa. There's another friend I can introduce to Jun Chen."

Chen Shaobai asked curiously: "I came here by boat, but I'm not tired. It's okay to meet at night, but the friend Suzuki-kun mentioned is...?"

"Hehe, friends from the northwest, I think Chen Jun will be interested." Suzuki Sadaichi said deliberately.

"Northwest?" Chen Shaobai suddenly couldn't think of any friends from the northwest who would be here.Moreover, he was still with Suzuki Sadaichi, and suddenly he was taken aback for a moment, with surprise on his face: "Is the northwest side you mentioned just the book that was sent by someone...?"

"Haha, Mr. Chen is Mr. Chen. You guessed it right. How about it? Are you interested?" Suzuki Sadaichi laughed.

Chen Shaobai was surprised and delighted at once, and nodded immediately: "Of course, of course! That's the deal. Tonight, Asakusa restaurant!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Shaobai walked around the room excitedly, then ran to Xu Tongxiong's room next door, knocked on the door and told Xu Tongxiong about the matter, Xu Tongxiong of course raised his hands and agreed.Afterwards, the two went back to their rooms to wash and change, and when the weather was about the same, they happily went to the appointment together.

Asakusa Restaurant is a well-known restaurant in Kanto Prefecture.Although it was the first time for Chen Shaobai and the others to go, they found the place after a little searching.

to the place.As soon as a waitress in kimono came up to her, Chen Shaobai told her Suzuki Teiichi's name in fluent Japanese.The other party nodded again and again, half-bowed to invite the guests in, walked through the corridor to the end, opened a door, and saw that Suzuki Sadaichi had arrived.Kneeling and sitting on the tata rice, he was talking and laughing happily with a young and handsome foreigner.

"Suzuki-kun!"

"Ah! It's Mr. Chen, you're here!" Suzuki Sadagi looked back at Chen Shaobai and quickly stood up, greeted him with a pleasant smile, then saw Xu Tongxiong behind Chen Shaobai, thought for a while and asked with a smile: "This is Xu Jun? We met once in Japan before."

"Suzuki-kun has a really good memory. I remember it was three years ago." Xu Tongxiong nodded with a smile.

"Hehe, it's really Xu Jun. Come on, let me introduce a friend to you. This is Mr. Wojczynski, or you can call him Wei Qin directly..." Suzuki Zhenyi warmly greeted both parties After making the introduction, Wojczynski stood up early and greeted the two new friends with a smile on his face.

After a brief introduction, everyone sat down. First, Chen Shaobai and Suzuki Teiichi recounted the past and chatted a few words about the past.After waiting for the food to be served, the two sides chatted very casually, but they mostly talked about the European war that just ended and some other things, and they didn't talk about anything else.

After half a round of drinking, Chen Shaobai tentatively asked Wojchenski about his real identity. When he learned that Wojchenski was indeed from the new government in Northwest China, and he was also a special envoy of Bupai International There was an expression of joy immediately.

"Mr. Wojczynski, Mr. Suzuki brought me this book before, and I have been reading it these days, and I have benefited a lot from it. But..." Chen Shaobai deliberately took out the book from the bag on the side The book was placed in front of him, and he patted it lightly with his palm: "Chen has little talent and learning, and there are some parts in it that he can't understand. Can Wojczynski explain it to me?"

"Of course, Mr. Chen, can you show me this book first?" Wojczynski readily agreed and made a request.

Chen Shaobai handed the book to the other party, and Wojczynski looked through it roughly, nodded slightly and returned the book to the other party: "Mr. Chen, although this book is easy to understand, because it is an excerpt, there are some parts It is true that the writing is not very clear. In fact, it is easy to understand, that is, to read the official works of the revolutionary teacher, there will be systematic explanations. But it is difficult to find these books for a while now, but no problem, you have those who are not If you understand, you can ask me directly, and I will try my best to explain it to you."

"So that's the case, no wonder... Hehe, thank you so much!"

"It doesn't matter, we are all explorers on the road of revolution, learn from each other and make progress together." Wojczynski replied very naturally.

Then, Chen Shaobai was not polite, and directly asked some key questions about the system, organization, structure, superstructure, class antagonism, and so on.Wojczynski also patiently explained one by one, and cited some extensive examples to confirm the explanation. With the other party's explanation, some troubled problems were easily solved. The more Chen Shaobai listened, the brighter his eyes became. Even Xu Tongxiong, who was kneeling beside him, gradually became fascinated by it from his disapproval at first.

The two sides chatted with each other, but Suzuki Teiichi, who was treating guests, seemed to be an outsider.However, there was no displeasure on his face. On the contrary, he poured wine, served tea, etc. for them. After half an hour, the two sides were still talking very intensely. Suzuki Sada saw that their conversations seemed to be unable to stop for a while, and The wine also happened to be gone.In order not to disturb their sex conversation, Suzuki Sadaichi did not directly invite the maid, but got up and went out to arrange it himself.

Gently pulling the door shut, Suzuki Sadaichi stood outside with a strange smile on his lips.Afterwards, he walked along the corridor to the opposite room, knocked lightly on the door, and when there was a "please come in" from inside, he pulled the door respectfully and entered.

It was the same as the room where they met, only the layout was reversed.There was no maid serving in this room, only a man in a kimono knelt at the table drinking alone, and this man was the supreme leader of the Special High School in Kanto Prefecture - Neiji Okamura.

"How is it over there?" Seeing that Suzuki Teiichi came, Okamura Neiji pointed to the place in front of him, and asked after he sat down.

"The Bolsheviks' methods of demagoguery are really good. Chen Shaobai and Xu Tongxiong who came with him almost took what Wojchenski said as the truth. It seems that everything is within our expectations. Your plan, senior It's perfect!" Suzuki Sadaichi roughly talked about the situation over there, and then flattered Neiji Okamura.

"Hehe, that's good..." Ningji Okamura smiled slightly, took a sip of the sake in front of him, and said: "The Bolsheviks are best at these, not to mention that Wojchensky is a member of Bupai International. The special envoy is even a master among them. If he can't even persuade a self-proclaimed revolutionary like Chen Shaobai, then there is no point in cooperating with them."

"Yes, let's not talk about what their doctrines and beliefs are. Wojchenski alone is not simple. To be honest, if it weren't for the unswerving concept of loyalty and patriotism in our Japanese hearts, maybe we would Bewitched by this trick! Terrible, it is too terrifying, how can there be such a monster in this world?" Suzuki Sadaichi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"That's true." Okamura Ningji straightened his face and said: "Otherwise, we would not cooperate with them. Because of this effect, the possibility of final success is greater. But Suzuki-kun, as you just said For them, we are not only partners, but also potential opponents, and we must take precautions when we cooperate to avoid getting burned.”

"Hey! Suzuki understands! Suzuki will never let such a thing happen in our Great Japanese Empire!" Suzuki Sadaichi patted his chest and assured.

"Okay, it's inconvenient for you to leave for too long at this time, so go back early. Treat our friends well these days, but I have something to remind you, you have to arrange another place for them next month at the latest. It is no longer appropriate to keep them in Kanto State for a long time."

"Hi! I will arrange it!" Suzuki Sadaichi nodded repeatedly. He understood what Neiji Okamura meant by inappropriateness. One was what he said before, and the other was the middle of next month. Kanto State will welcome an extremely distinguished guest from China. By then, people like Chen Shaobai and Wojczynski in the entire Kanto State must leave the country to avoid unnecessary trouble.
