Agents of the Republic of China

Lin Xiaotang put the jug by the side of the hot spring pool, took off his kimono and jumped in directly. Under the sky full of stars, waves of mist rose from the water surface of the hot spring, as if it was a layer of natural protective color, covering the two people who were immersed in the water. His face was covered.

"Mr. Lin is a native of Shanghai?" After a difficult silence, Takeda Yoshio spoke first.

"No, I'm from Nanjing."

Takeda Yoshio nodded expressionlessly, and took a sip from the jug. "The ancient Jinling, the ancient capital of six dynasties and the city of ten dynasties, is it a good place?"

Lin Xiaotang looked at him, in the night, coupled with the transpiration of the fog, Takeda Yoshio's face was somewhat blurred. "Is it a good place? Nanjing does have its unique geographical location and extraordinary feng shui, but this is also the reason why it has suffered from swords and soldiers many times. In history, the Central Plains has been invaded by foreigners many times. Every time, our Han nationality I will choose Nanjing to recuperate. Needless to say, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Xiao Liang, and Liu Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty and the Republic of China all started the Northern Expedition from Nanjing, and then unified the world. But now, Nanjing has been lost for many years... ".

"A weak country is naturally the fat in the eyes of the great powers. In troubled times, it is not easy to avoid the disaster of swords and soldiers. What's more, China has been weak for a hundred years, and it has always been at a loss when facing the division of the great powers. There is a Chinese saying: strike iron You have to be strong yourself! If you don’t work hard, you will never escape the fate of being enslaved!"

Lin Xiaotang laughed suddenly, "Your Excellency Takeda's words are very to the point, I'll offer you a toast!"

Lin Xiaotang stood up, and lightly clinked glasses with Takeda Yoshio.For this Japanese, Lin Xiaotang has always been suspicious, especially when he dismissed the monitor just now, and mentioned the word "shadow" intentionally or unintentionally, which made Lin Xiaotang a little uncertain. Could it be that he is the contact person mentioned by Chief Tachibana? --"shadow"?

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaotang decided to play around and test this Takeda Yoshio. "Mr. Takeda, on the first day I arrived at the General Staff Headquarters, the person I met who claimed to be Nakanishi Kung Fu was the same Nakanishi Kung Fu who had previously worked in the Manchurian Railway?"

Takeda Yoshio was drinking sake, and when he heard this, he put down the jug and nodded, "That's right, it's him!"

"Why, Mr. Lin knows him?" Takeda Yoshio turned the question back to Lin Xiaotang.

"I've heard that Mr. Nakanishi is a senior manager of Manchurian Railway Co., Ltd. To be honest, I also have some business in the Northeast. You know, if you want to do business in the Northeast, you can't get around Manchurian Railway. Therefore, I have also heard the name of Mr. Nakanishi Ko."

Faced with Lin Xiaotang's impeccable answer, Takeda Yoshio suddenly laughed, "Mr. Lin, you don't have to be so cautious. This is not an interrogation. The order to release Mr. Lin has already been issued. It is better for Mr. Lin to be as casual as possible. No third person can hear our conversation." of."

"Is this some kind of hint?" Lin Xiaotang asked.

Takeda Yoshio looked at Lin Xiaotang curiously, "What does Mr. Lin think my words are implying?"

The two were relatively speechless, and suddenly laughed at the same time.

"Yes, I am the shadow!" Takeda Yoshio stopped laughing and said suddenly.

"Oh, Mr. Takeda no longer denies it?" Lin Xiaotang looked at him calmly.

"There is no need to waste any more time!" Takeda Yoshio's application became serious instantly, "Kenji Doihara's suspicion of you has not disappeared, otherwise he would not have sent me to monitor you. , don’t go back to China. You don’t know Doihara. He would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. The reason why he didn’t kill you is because there are too many reasons involved. But not It means that he will let you go. Fortunately, you are lucky, Kenji Doihara will be transferred to Nanyang soon, you should be glad that you don’t have to face his threat anymore.”

Lin Xiaotang opened a pack of cigarettes, and made a gesture to throw one to Takeda Yoshio. Takeda Yoshio shook his head, but Lin Xiaotang didn't persuade him any more, "You mean I should thank you?"

"No need!" Takeda Yoshio waved his hand, "The superior has informed me of your plan, and I feel that there is basically no possibility of success."

"so what?"

"After Doihara leaves the mainland, I will find a chance to let you escape, and you can go wherever you want!"

"So you want to drive me away?"

Takeda Yoshio nodded, "You are from the Chongqing Military Command, and you asked me to cooperate, but I don't think it's necessary. And your plan is too unimaginable. To be honest, I don't think so, so I decided to give up working with you. cooperate!"

"What if I don't agree?"

"Disagree?" Takeda Takeshi laughed back, "Why do you? Don't forget, this is Japan!"

"How about Japan? Don't forget, for the Japanese, you and I are both ghosts who sneak in. Hehe, it's just that you and I are a little different. I can see the light, but you can only be a shadow , must not see the light!"

"You...!" Takeda Yoshio turned pale at Lin Xiaotang's eloquent teeth.As a pure Bolshevik, he has a natural sense of repulsion towards the people of the national government. As early as after his superiors secretly reported the general content of Lin Xiaotang's plan to him, he had no hope for this plan. In the eyes of Takeda Yoshio Here, this plan is purely whimsical, and it is undoubtedly a dream to realize it in Japan.

"No matter what you think, in Japan, it is not your turn to issue orders. I have already said that you'd better make some preparations, and the Japanese female officers around you. I advise you to be careful and do intelligence. You still have the intention to hook up with women, your private life is so chaotic, what right do you have to tell me about earth-shattering big plans!"

Takeda Takeo waved his hand arrogantly, "That's the decision, once Doihara leaves, you will also leave Japan!"

Lin Xiaotang slowly sat back in the water, looked at Takeda Takeda's full of vigor, "Don't worry, now is not the time for you to be the master!"

Lin Xiaotang lazily raised his naked palm and snapped his fingers. Although the sound was not very loud in the silent mountain forest, it was exceptionally clear.

Takeda Yoshio was taken aback for a moment, but then, he heard the rustling sound from the surrounding woods, and he couldn't help being startled.

Several black shadows suddenly appeared in the surrounding bushes, some of them were lying in the grass not far from the hot spring pool, covered with thick leaves and vegetation camouflage, these black shadows stood up silently, even they The weapons in their hands were covered with a thick layer of cloth, and even under the moonlight, there was no reflection at all.But Takeda Yoshio clearly felt that all those guns were aimed at him without exception.

Standing in the hot spring, Takeda Yoshio suddenly felt a piercing chill. This is the mainland of Japan. When did a prisoner like Lin Xiaotang deploy so many people? He thought he could firmly control him, but unexpectedly he turned out to be Always in his game.

Lin Xiaotang waved his hand casually, and the shadows around him disappeared into the darkness again in an instant. "I have been laying out this plan for many years, including everything I have done in Shanghai to be able to implement this plan. Now that you are whimsical, you want me to give up. Do you think it is possible?"

"You don't want to participate, you can! But this plan will never stop. I heard that you have now joined the Russian organization. Then you will be responsible for your master. Once the plan is fully launched, you and the Russians If you want to share a piece of the pie, at that time, it will not be as simple as asking me. So, you'd better think clearly before answering me. "

Lin Xiaotang's words made Takeda Yoshio sit down dumbfounded.

"You are serving the Russians. Regardless of your ideals and purposes, at least I respect your courage. But I am fighting for my country and nation. In comparison, I am much simpler than you."

Lin Xiaotang stood up, walked up the steps, and slowly dried his body, "By the way, I forgot to tell you that I heard that the Japanese royal family has started contacting the Americans. I don't know what they talked about, but We all have imaginations, you can totally guess that."

"My plan, without you, I can still do it. The reason I found you is just to have more protection. The Russians are much smarter than you. They can clearly see that this plan can bring them Of course, I also have benefits, I do not deny this, you can suggest to your superiors to cancel this plan, but I can guarantee that they will definitely not agree!"

Lin Xiaotang put on the kimono, dried his hair, lit another cigarette, and waved the cigarette case in his hand to the stunned Takeda Yoshio, "Thank you for the cigarettes, I know you don't smoke, these cigarettes are purely for me Yes. So, I will give you one more day, the time for asking for instructions and thinking should be enough, right?"

Takeda Yoshio was always in a state of shock, and he didn't even notice that Lin Xiaotang had gone far away.After a long time, he suddenly picked up the wine jug beside him, drank it down, and then panted heavily. Everything that happened tonight shocked him too much.

A prisoner has such a strong strength in Japan.You know, this is near Tokyo, and an elite squad of more than ten people got mixed up under the nose of the command center.Takeda Yoshio can be sure that they are all Chinese, because foreigners cannot lurk in Japan because of their appearance.

The scary thing is, I don't know if they have more armed men lurking in every corner of Tokyo.

Also, the most important thing is Lin Xiaotang's reminder.The Japanese had secretly contacted the Americans, and Lin Xiaotang first got the news when the Russian intelligence system knew nothing about it. The most important thing was that he, a senior officer lurking in the Japanese military command center, The agents didn't even hear a word of it.

"Could it be that I really misunderstood this Lin Xiaotang?" Although he was reluctant, Takeda Yoshio had to think this way.
