Spy Shadow

Chapter 618: Open-minded

What Ishida took out was a commendation order. Because Ohta Hiroshi had made many meritorious services, the Chinese specially commended him and awarded him a medal. However, Ishida only had a commendation order and no medal.

"Where did you come from?"

Seeing that Ishida had produced such important evidence, Mitsui was shocked. This was not an ordinary thing. No matter how stupid Ohta Hiroshi was, there was no way he would keep this thing around him.

Once discovered, he will be beyond redemption.

"Bought."

"purchase?"

Mitsui's eyes widened. Ishida actually bought such important information?

"Section Chief, do you still remember Chen Shengfeng's case?"

Ishida asked proactively, and Mitsui nodded: "Remember, the mole who was an intelligence dealer in the Concession Bank was the one you captured."

"Yes, after I caught him, I paid attention to the intelligence market. I didn't expect that there were so many businessmen engaged in intelligence work. They had a lot of important information in their hands. I kept trying to find ways to contact them, and then I contacted someone A Frenchman named Philippe.”

"This time you asked me to investigate Chinese agents. The intelligence team found no useful clues, so I approached Philip and asked him to customize intelligence about Chinese agents."

"After he gave it to me, I immediately went to investigate. Daejeon was indeed very suspicious."

Ishida explained that Mitsui was a little surprised but also very happy.

Do intelligence dealers still have such important information?

Japan also purchased a lot of intelligence from intelligence merchants, but it was not the Shanghai Special High School, but the headquarters. Only a small part of the intelligence purchased by the headquarters would be given to them.

What Tuyuan purchased was mainly important information, such as the army's strategic layout, military plans, etc.

In addition to the special higher education courses, there are also the Department of the Army, the Department of the Navy, etc., which are all important customers of intelligence merchants.

"Did they tell you how the information came from?" Mitsui asked.

"No, section chief, don't worry. These intelligence dealers have a good reputation and will not commit fraud. Once it is reported that someone has committed fraud, no one will buy information from him in the future."

Ishida explained that he indeed bought this information for a small price of two thousand dollars.

But it was the Chinese who told him to find someone to buy it from.

Qian Te's high school course will be reimbursed and he doesn't have to pay for it himself. It doesn't matter how much it is. If it's not too high, Mitsui will definitely agree to spend the money.

For Mitsui, nothing matters more than credit.

"Very good, are you being watched?"

"Keep an eye on him, section chief. He is not an agent of the Military Command or the Central Command. There is only one person on the line, Jian Shihao. Jian Shihao is not in Shanghai. We don't need to keep an eye on him for too long. We can arrest him directly."

Ishida reminded that this person has a single line of contact and is neither the military commander nor the central commander. He has no companions and does not need to put a long line to catch big fish.

"Yes, prepare to arrest people."

After thinking about it, Mitsui nodded. There were no people on or off the line, so it was useless to keep an eye on him. He should be caught as soon as possible. Although he was not a military commander, he was a real Chinese agent.

And his identity as Japanese is even more important.

The credit for catching such a traitor is no less than catching other Chinese agents.

In the Army Investigation Department, Ohta Hiroshi is off work normally. His job is not heavy. The Investigation Department has little power. Without orders from above, they will not meddle in the affairs of the military department at will.

Ohta Hiroshi studied at the University of Tokyo, not the Army University. He is a civilian employee, but he also has a military rank and is currently a major.

People like him have no chance to lead troops and can only do auxiliary work forever.

Riding a bicycle, Hiroshi Ohta walked home.

As soon as he reached an intersection, a rickshaw suddenly ran out from beside him. He braked hard and almost didn't overturn the car.

The moment he stopped, someone jumped out from both sides, held him down, quickly searched him, took away everything on him, and tore off his clothes.

Da Tian was a little confused. Even if it was a robbery, he wouldn't tear his clothes, right?

There are people who have taken away the clothes. What's the use of them if they are torn? Do they have to be taken back to be mended and worn again?

"Team leader, we caught him."

When his subordinates came to report, Mitsui did not follow him. Ishida personally brought people from the intelligence team to arrest someone, just one person, without the help of the action team.

"Okay, take it back."

Being forcibly taken away, Ohta Hiroshi sensed something was wrong, but unfortunately his mouth was blocked and he could not speak.

Seeing the sign for the Special Higher Education Course, Ohta Hiroshi stopped struggling and showed panic in his eyes.

"Hiroshi Ohta, look at this."

In the torture room, Mitsui personally interrogated and sent the commendation order to Ohta Hiroshi. Seeing this commendation order, the fear in his eyes became even greater.

Noticing his expression, Mitsui felt relieved.

"Tell me, when did you start working for the Chinese, and what useful information did you provide them?"

Mitsui asked, and Ota trembled violently and shouted hurriedly: "Can you let me make a phone call?"

Call up?

His request almost made Mitsui laugh. Did he think this was somewhere, a hotel?

He was taken to the torture room and he actually wanted to make a phone call?

"Torture."

Mitsui stopped talking nonsense, dipped his whip in salt water, and almost killed Ota with one whip.

Da Tian couldn't hold on for the third whip and shouted hurriedly: "I said, don't hit him."

They are Japanese and speak all Japanese.

"I joined China's intelligence service two years ago to provide them with intelligence."

Two years is not a short time, and it is a big fish.

"However, most of the information I provide is unimportant information, and occasionally I provide them with false information to mislead them."

"Fake information?"

Mitsui was a little surprised. Could it be that like Hu Donggui, he was another person who pretended to take refuge?

"Yes, some information cannot be given to them, but you can mislead them. Generally, among the nine unimportant information provided, I will include one or two false information, so that they will not be suspicious."

"Why do you do this?"

Mitsui asked immediately, and Ohta raised his head: "Can you let me make a call? Really, I just want to make a call."

"Torture."

He still wanted to make a phone call, but Mitsui didn't tolerate him. After a few whips, Ohta Hiroshi finally became honest.

He told everything.

After listening to his confession, Mitsui was in a daze. This humble man turned out to be a triple agent. The person he really served was the Naval Intelligence Department. He was an undercover agent sent by the Naval Intelligence Department to the Army Investigation Department.

The Japanese Navy sent undercover agents to the Army. Considering their relationship, this is not surprising.

While in the Army Investigation Department, he was targeted by the Chinese again. The Naval Intelligence Department also asked him to infiltrate the Chinese intelligence department. Firstly, he could collect intelligence about China. Secondly, he could provide false information to mislead the Chinese and make meritorious deeds for himself. .

Because he provided a lot of information over the past two years, the Chinese commended him and gave him a lot of bonuses.

He did not carry this award with him, but placed it in Chongqing.

He has a house in Chongqing, which was awarded to him by the Chinese.

He didn't know how this thing, which was well hidden in Chongqing, appeared in the hands of people from the Extra High School.

Ota was not considered a professional agent. Because he graduated from the University of Tokyo and had not attended Army University, he was targeted by the Naval Intelligence Department. He was given simple special training and allowed to stay in the Army Department to provide intelligence for the Naval Intelligence Department.

After the Chinese found him, the Naval Intelligence Department took advantage of the situation and asked him to break into the Chinese intelligence department.

Just such a person became a triple spy, which was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

"Ishida, you have made great contributions. I will report this matter to the chief section chief immediately and help you write a promotion report."

After figuring out the reason, Mitsui said excitedly that Ohta Hiroshi was not a real Chinese agent, but his true identity was from the Naval Intelligence Department.

This achievement is greater than catching Chinese agents.

The conflict between the Japanese Army and Navy has been accumulating for a long time. Keiji Tsuchhara is considered a member of the Army. Now they have caught an agent of the Naval Intelligence Department. If this lawsuit goes to the top, it will be enough for the people of the Navy.

Such a contribution is indeed not small.

Capturing one's own people is more rewarding than capturing the enemy. This kind of thing is not uncommon among the Japanese.

Tuyuan received Mitsui's report and took the matter seriously.

He personally came to the Special High School and interrogated Ohta Hiroshi to make sure that he was not lying and that he was really from the Naval Intelligence Department.

He quickly took the person away, and Shanghai University of Science and Technology did not need to interfere with what happened next.

When the chief section chief took the person away, Mitsui was not only not angry at all, but also very excited.

Taking people away personally shows that the chief section chief attaches great importance to this matter. They will definitely make great contributions this time. Now that Nagumo has been demoted, he has made great contributions one after another. During this period of time, he can sit back and relax without any worries. .

In the war situation team, Ni Yao came to report with a telegram.

"Thank you from Catfish. He has made great contributions this time. Mitsui decided to help him file a promotion report. If nothing else happens, he will be promoted to lieutenant colonel this time."

Ishida has been presiding over the work of the intelligence team with the military rank of Major. The military rank is indeed a bit low. He has not made any meritorious service before, so it is difficult to be promoted. This time, Mitsui took advantage of the opportunity to help him upgrade.

After upgrading, he is on the same level as Jiang Tengkong, and Mitsui can better control the balance.

"Let him do his job well and don't worry about his wife and children. We will give him the photos later."

After reading the telegram, Chu Lingyun said with a smile that Catfish had a request at the end of the telegram and wanted to see photos of his wife and children.

Ishida's wife Gongmei gave birth to a fat boy. They are currently in Chongqing and have not returned to the special higher education class for the time being.

Ishida was worried about the safety of his wife and children and did not dare to leave them in Japan. Otherwise, if his affairs were exposed, his wife and children would have no chance of surviving.

Handing it over to the Chinese would also be dangerous, but he is now doing things for the Chinese. As long as he does well, the Chinese will treat their mother and son well.

As for sending them abroad to live in seclusion alone, Ishida had not considered it, but finally gave up.

Orphans and widowers cannot live in peace no matter where they are.

She is so beautiful that she is easily targeted by gangsters.

When she goes abroad, Gongmei must remain anonymous and cannot have contact with outsiders. If her true identity is discovered, their whole family will be ruined.

Ishida didn't have an absolute confidant to trust, otherwise it would be feasible. After careful consideration, he still let his wife and children live in Chinese territory, which would at least ensure their current safety.

As for the future, we’ll talk about it later.

He is now working for the Chinese and has made a lot of achievements. Every time he will be rewarded a lot, all the money will be sent to Gongmei.

The most important thing right now is to let the children grow up healthily.

"Okay, I'll send the report."

Loach left. This time, Ohta Hiroshi's information was the early investigation results of their war situation team.

Ohta Hiroshi did provide a lot of information, but a lot of the information was either expired or of little use, and some even had problems, causing losses to the Guo army.

Over time, they aroused suspicion.

The intelligence department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent people to Shanghai to conduct a secret investigation two months ago. The intelligence agent they sent fell into the hands of Feng Yong because he caused trouble while drunk in the French Concession.

Feng Yong didn't feel anything unusual at first. The intelligence agent was very worried after he was caught. He kept looking for people to stuff money into him and wanted to get out as soon as possible.

The crime he committed was not big, but he spent so much money.

After releasing the man, Feng Yong thought twice. As a result, he went to the public concession and did not dare to stay in the French Concession.

Feng Yong reported it to Chu Lingyun, while Ran Wu continued to investigate him.

Later, it was discovered that he did have a problem and often went out secretly. Ran Wu was not a professional agent and did not dare to follow him too closely. After the situation was reported, Chu Lingyun asked Ran Wu to give up the investigation.

Then Loach was sent to find out the identity of this person.

When the loach comes out, the opponent can't hide at all.

It didn't take long for him to find out about the other party. When he learned that he was an intelligence officer from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Chu Lingyun gave up the investigation. Since he was one of his own, there was no need to continue the investigation.

Fortunately for this guy, he caused trouble again in the public concession. Ran Wu kept an eye on him and immediately arrested him across districts. He also fought a long-term lawsuit over this.

He cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of others. Based on his previous performance, once he is tortured, he will most likely confess.

If the party has many intelligence departments, it has to be said that the military commander is indeed the best among them. Most of the other intelligence departments are like a piece of loose sand.

He had a special identity. After Chu Lingyun learned that he had caused trouble again, he decided to find out the situation.

He was in Ran Wu's hands, and Ran Wu had a way to get him to speak, but in the end, he did everything he could without using any torture.

Fortunately, he fell into the hands of Chu Lingyun twice, otherwise the police would definitely ask him about his true identity and situation.

It is basically impossible to send people like him to investigate hidden agents and find out the truth.

Chu Lingyun simply checked it himself, and this investigation really revealed the problem.

Ohta Hiroshi was indeed a fake defector and was not really working for the Chinese, but he was also not from the Army Investigation Department. His contact line was found out by Chu Lingyun, and through tracking, it was discovered that he was an intelligence officer from the Navy Department.

After figuring out the facts, Chu Lingyun couldn't laugh or cry.

Such three-faced spies are relatively rare.

The intelligence officer from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Chu Lingyun, ordered Ran Wu to knock out a sum of money from him and release it, while reporting it to the headquarters.

During the report, Chu Lingyun did not give details, but said that he accidentally discovered that there was a problem in Daejeon. After investigation, it was found that he was actually from the Japanese Naval Intelligence Department, and at the same time he had infiltrated the Army Investigation Department and the intelligence department of their Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Boss Dai did not pay special attention to matters that had nothing to do with military reunification and reported them to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

After figuring out the situation, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Intelligence recalled the intelligence agent. He was arrested by patrols twice in a row. He really did not dare to stay in Shanghai and was summoned to quickly return to Chongqing.

It was the expense this time that made him feel distressed. He didn't have much fun, and most of the money he brought in was given to the damn patrol.

Knowing that they had been cheated, Chongqing was really angry.

Unfortunately, before he had time to dispose of it, Chu Lingyun used it as waste and gave it to Catfish to perform meritorious deeds.

There is no point in killing this kind of undercover agent secretly. Let him die in the right place and in a useful way.

As for the intelligence merchants, they were just white gloves found by Loach.

Ni Loach has studied the intelligence market more deeply. Under Chu Lingyun's order, he now has a complete understanding of the situation in the Shanghai intelligence market, and has penetrated into it to support his representatives.

His representative is Philip. This time Catfish was ordered to buy information from Philip, but it was actually given to him by Loach.

After knowing Da Tian's identity, it is too easy to get his evidence. This commendation order is indeed genuine. Da Tian is smart enough not to keep it around.

After the results of Ran Wu's interrogation came out, Chu Lingyun asked He Nian to help, and he found the thing easily.

There are also medals, but there is no need to give them together, a commendation order is enough.

Catfish doesn't know the details, but it is enough for him to make meritorious service. He has completed the tasks assigned by Mitsui and has the opportunity to be promoted to military rank. His status will be more stable.

Mitsui is still a puppet, and is doing it happily.

The two right-hand men around him did not disappoint him, and they both made meritorious deeds. Unfortunately, they did not catch the real person in the battle group.

Mitsui firmly believes that as long as they keep working hard, it will be a matter of time before the Chinese agents are wiped out.

Nanjing, dock.

Suzuki was leading people to search two cargo ships, while the captain next to him was nodding and bending, trying to hand over something.

"Captain, I found out that half of them are contraband."

His subordinate Akabane came to report that after Suzuki took office, he did not replace many of his subordinates. He had no confidants before, and the people appointed by his predecessor, Captain Hidden, had been eliminated by Takemoto.

The rest are all from the former captain.

He was transferred to another department by Kurosawa, but his previous performance was good. He took money to do things and never felt sorry for the goods of Ishihara Trading Company. Naturally, his people could be used.

During this period, Suzuki selected and tested several people and recruited them as his confidants. The one who came to report at this time was his confidant Akabane.

Akabane's rank is not high, he is just a squad leader.

Suzuki is not stupid. He didn't have much power before, but having no power doesn't mean he can't do things. The people he chose are not high-level. He can help these people rise to a higher position and make them more grateful to him. To win people's hearts.

"You are so courageous. You actually brought so many contrabands with you. Catch them all."

Suzuki snorted coldly, and the captain was stunned. Their goods had never passed through Nanjing before, and even if they were inspected, it was just a formality.

He once sent money to Suzuki, but Suzuki refused to accept it.

Later, the superiors did not let him send it again and returned it to the service without charging any money. This was a great thing and it happened to save a lot of money.

"Mr. Suzuki, this is Mr. Eguchi's product."

The captain became anxious and immediately shouted that Suzuki knew who Eguchi he was talking about was currently working in the Shanghai Liaison Department as a minor official.

What's wrong with Eguchi? His official position was bought through Abe. When he bought an official position, he didn't know how high the sky was and thought he was a big shot.

Putting aside the fact that he did not belong to the military, Toru Ishihara wanted to crush him to death as easily as crushing an ant to death.

"All cargo has been unloaded and the ship has been impounded, awaiting disposal."

Suzuki ignored him, everyone on the ship was put into cells, and the goods were moved into the warehouse.

This is just the first batch. In the next few days, Nanjing Terminal will continue to check all kinds of contraband. As long as it passes through Nanjing, all contraband will be checked, including Yangzhou.

A total of more than a dozen trading houses were investigated, and a lot of goods were seized. With such a large amount of goods, Suzuki immediately reported it, and Chu Lingyun quickly received his telegram.

"There are so many."

Chu Lingyun was a little surprised. He knew that there were a lot of smugglers in Shanghai, but he didn't expect there to be so many. The total amount of seized goods was equivalent to his smuggling amount.

This is just Nanjing, and there is no investigation on land. If we check, we can find out a lot.

Behind these trading houses, 80% are Japanese, and the remaining 20% ​​are people from other countries, but they also have connections with the Japanese.

The territory outside the concession is all Japanese territory. Without good relations, it is impossible to transport contraband out.

In Shanghai, many business owners are as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

Something happened in Nanjing. All their goods were seized and their people arrested.

They were not Ishihara Trading Company and did not have that much energy. They immediately reported to the masters behind them and asked them to find a way to get the goods back and release the detained people and ships.

"Qiugu-kun, is your goods also detained in Nanjing?"

In a Japanese teahouse, three people were sitting on their knees at the tea table. The speaker was Eguchi. After learning that the goods had been detained, he immediately asked friends in Nanjing to help clear the door, but he didn't even see Suzuki's face.

As for General Miyamoto, they were simply out of reach.

"That's right, two ships were seized and the losses were heavy."

Qiugu sighed. He was not working in the Liaison Department, but in the consulate. No matter where he was, the normal salary would definitely not be enough for their expenses.

People who have some power will think of ways to make money. The profit of normal goods is not high, far less than that of contraband.

Driven by profit, many people started smuggling business.

Ironically, the more bans imposed by the Japanese, the more popular these goods become, and the Japanese are basically involved in smuggling, either personally or by collecting huge benefits to protect other businessmen.

"Me too, I was detained three times."

Nitta on the side said with a wry smile. He is an officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel and works in the Army Department.

"Suzuki is so disrespectful. I gave him money before, but he didn't ask for it. Now he suddenly attacks. He was already prepared and just wanted to swallow up our goods."

Eguchi said angrily, "How many times have I sent money, but these goods are not as valuable as these."

Moreover, he has not been in this business for a long time. He used to do it on a small scale, but recently he has gradually become more courageous. This time, he basically staked more than half of his capital on the two shipments of goods.

If he loses everything, his net worth will be severely reduced.

"It's no use looking for Suzuki. This business will be difficult to do in the future."

Nitta sighed slightly. He was in the Army Ministry and an officer, so he knew more things.

He knew that Suzuki was a member of Youzhai Bunsha. He had some knowledge of Youzhai Bunshe. It was a very large and powerful organization. He wanted to join, but he had no chance.

The literary society implements a recommendation system. Without recommenders, you can't even get in.

Since Chu Lingyun issued the order not to recommend at will, the number of people recommended each time has been reduced. Recommendations must be made responsibly. People who recommend poorly may harm themselves.

"Nitta-kun, do you know something?"

Eguchi asked hurriedly, and Nitta shook his head slightly: "You guys talk, I'm going back first."

Nitta knew, but he didn't want to say it. The other two of the three were not in the military, so they knew less.

Ishihara Trading Company is not easy to mess with. To him, Ishihara Trading Company is like a behemoth. Not only does he have no ability to shake it, but if he is not careful, he can be swallowed up by this giant beast and no residue will be left.

"Arata-kun."

Eguchi hurriedly called out to Nitta but left without looking back.

He had the most goods detained. Today, the three of them are discussing how to deal with it. The three of them purchase goods from the same place, so they should be familiar with each other.

As a result, Nitta, who was the strongest and had the highest level, left first.

"Eguchi-kun, have you found out what happened?"

After Nitta left, Akiya asked immediately. He got into this business relatively late and joined after seeing Eguchi making money.

He and Eguchi had known each other before, and Eguchi was transferred to the Liaison Department from the consulate.

After arriving at the Liaison Department, Eguchi had greater power and richer opportunities.

"Qiugu-kun, don't worry, I will definitely find out."

Eguchi's face was gloomy. Nitta obviously knew what was going on, but he was unwilling to tell them, which really made him angry.

"I will also try my best to investigate and find the root cause. Even if it is difficult to do it in the future, I will at least get this batch of goods back."

Qiugu nodded and said, he had staked all his wealth this time. Once this batch of goods was lost, he would lose all his money and it would be even more miserable.

"Let's work together and get our goods back first. As for Xintian, let's leave him alone."

After Nitta left and returned home, he immediately went out with a box and went to Ishihara Trading Company.

"Sorry, our boss is not available."

Not long after, Nitta received a reply that Ishihara Hiroshi did not agree to meet him.

He didn't have any surprises. People like Hiroshi Ishihara were not something he could see if he wanted to. He was just here to try his luck and express his attitude.

"Please tell Mr. Ishihara that it was my fault this time. I specifically apologized to him today. This is my little thought. Please pass it on to me."

Nitta handed over a box, bowed deeply, and left immediately.

Fang Shiyi took the box, which was quite heavy. He quickly returned to the office and delivered the box to Ishihara Hiroshi.

"He is a sensible person."

Chu Lingyun smiled and said that there were thirty gold bars in the box. This amount of money was nothing to him, but to Xintian outside, it was no longer a small amount.

His goods have been detained, and if he sends so much money, this time will be in vain.

What Chu Lingyun valued was not money, but his attitude.

"Send a report to Nanjing. Let Xintian's goods and people be released."

Chu Lingyun ordered, Alchemist Yi was slightly startled, and immediately ran out to send the report. Not long after, Suzuki released all the people of Xintian Trading Company, as well as the ships and goods.

These people were put into cells and feared for several days. Everyone was dirty and in very poor spirits.

"You can call."

Suzuki told the leader of the fleet that the phone here could make long distance calls. He thanked him and immediately called Arata.

"Thank you Captain Suzuki. This is a small kindness, please accept it."

The leader took out all the cash, almost two thousand yen, from the items returned to them, wrapped it in a piece of paper, and respectfully presented it in front of Suzuki.

This time Suzuki did not refuse, and the superiors agreed to release him, which proved that he did the right thing and that this was what he deserved.

"Go back and be careful next time."

Suzuki smiled and nodded. In Shanghai, Nitta was sitting in the office with a microphone in his hand.

His people were let go?

This result surprised him. The last time he gave money, he wanted to protect himself from being liquidated by Ishihara Hiroshi afterwards. He had no ability to resist against Ishihara Hiroshi.

Kurosawa is great, but what is the final result?

He saw clearly that giving money was to save his life. If the money was gone, he would make money later. If his life was gone, there would be nothing.

But he didn't expect that after sending the money, his goods and people would be released?

What does Ishihara Hiroshi mean? Isn't it like he guessed, monopolizing the smuggling business and not letting others get involved?

Definitely not. If it were, the best result would be not letting go of his goods and not settling the matter with him.

After a while, Nitta's eyes suddenly lit up.

Since Toru Ishihara did not object to their smuggling, since it was not prohibited, Toru Ishihara's sudden action this time must be for other reasons.

No matter what the reason is, this is good news for him. He can continue to sell goods in the future and continue to make money. It doesn't matter if he makes less, as long as he makes some.

He could even take advantage of this opportunity to get in touch with Hiroshi Ishihara.

It would be even better if I could join Youzhai Literary Society.

Nitta thought happily that he was right, Chu Lingyun did not prohibit them from smuggling.

No matter who does this business, the goods will eventually flow into the hands of the Chinese, easing their shortage of supplies.

With more supplies, prices will naturally come down.

Give all the goods to Boss Dai. With his temperament, I'm afraid he will increase the price of the goods and make more money.

When the price of goods increases, the sales price will inevitably be higher. In the end, it is the common people who suffer.

Besides, the goods smuggled by others also have a chance of reaching the Red Party.

These people don't care who the buyer is, as long as they pay for it

Chu Lingyun would not strangle him to death on this road.

But it's not good to have too much or too much chaos. It's not in his interest. He takes this opportunity to consolidate it and keep some obedient people behind. Those who are daring, desperate, or deliberately disrupting prices will be cleared out.

"Nitta, you are not interesting enough."

Eguchi came to the Army Department, found Nitta, and said resentfully that he had just received news that Nitta's goods and people had been released. Obviously, he had a way to get the things back.

The last time they discussed it together, Nitta knew the reason but didn't say it. It turned out that he was going to do it by himself without the two of them.

"Eguchi, do you believe me when I say I didn't know beforehand?"

Nitta smiled and shook his head. He really didn't expect Ishihara Hiroshi to release all his goods and people. He didn't think about this at all when he gave the money.

This result made him admire Ishihara Hiroshi very much.

Ishihara Hiroshi is an open-minded person. He does not want to eat meat alone and not give them soup as he thought. No matter what Ishihara Hiroshi's purpose is, he will cooperate.

As for his open-mindedness, if the dead Kurosawa knew about it, he would probably curse him.

The first update is guaranteed to be 8,000 words.
