"Eiye, you can't do this." Aoi shouted, and was immediately punched by Lu Yuan.
"Mr. Officer." Eguchi Hide also looked at Cheng Qianfan, "I ask you to stop torturing Mr. Xiaolin. In exchange, I will answer your questions."
Mr. Xiao Lin was the one who enjoyed the appetizer of 'Soldering Iron' on the Tiger Bench. At this time, he had passed out many times and was frequently awakened by cold water. Now he was tortured to the point of passing out again.
"Eguchi Hideya, you bastard!"
"Yingye, what are you doing?"
The other two, Rite Zhuangruo, who was tied to the wooden frame, shouted wildly.
Cheng Qianfan waved his right hand, and the two agents came up and whipped him hard with a whip. The whip dipped in water hit the person's body, causing an intimate physical and sensory reaction on the body, and a burst of screams.
For maintenance, the leather whip will be coated with grease and other antiseptics, which will reduce the friction. In other words, if it is too smooth, the force and pain caused by hitting the human body will be weakened.
If it is dipped in water, the small burrs on the fur surface of the whip will expand due to the adsorption of water, increasing friction.
With each whip stroke, the burrs on the surface of the seemingly smooth whip's fur are like saw teeth that are invisible to the naked eye.
Eguchi Hideya's ears seemed to be blocked by cotton. He chose to block these sounds. A voice in his heart roared:
Eguchi Hide is also a true warrior.
He did not betray the Empire.
He is great and selfless.
He's doing it for Keiko!
For these companions!
For pure love, for the lives of companions.
I would rather suffer the misunderstanding and make such a sacrifice.
This is great endurance.
Eguchi Hide also found a 'sacred' reason for himself.
He repeatedly said this to himself in his heart.
…
"First tell me which secret service agency you belong to!" Cheng Qianfan snorted, "Besides, you are not qualified to make demands of me. The answer to this question is a condition for you to save the lives of your companions."
"Okay, I say."
"Eguchi Hideya, bastard, ah - you - such a coward!" Kurai cursed.
"Kurai-kun, I can welcome death with my head held high, but I cannot accept watching you being shot because of me." Eguchi Hideya said with a painful expression, "Mr. Officer, we are affiliated with the Inoue Mansion Endo Group."
"asshole!"
"Damn it!"
Cheng Qianfan frowned, "It's too noisy."
Lu Da picked up the rag that was used to gag his mouth.
Cheng Qianfan walked to the brazier expressionlessly, picked up the red-hot soldering iron, and lit a cigarette.
"I can do this kind of rough work."
Lu Da came over in two steps, holding a soldering iron in one hand, walked directly to the wooden frame, one on each side, and pressed hard on the chests of 'Cang Jing' and 'Okuri'.
White smoke mixed with the smell of roasted meat filled the air, and both men screamed and passed out.
"Okay, now we can continue to communicate." Cheng Qianfan looked at Eguchi Hideya, "Your name, age, place of origin, and position."
"Eguchi Hideya, 26 years old, a native of Kagawa Prefecture on Shikoku Island, a member of the intelligence team of the Endo Group of the Inoue Mansion."
Inoue?
Cheng Qianfan's heart moved. He remembered the cherry blossom token he found with Lao Mo. The vague writing on the front of the token. At that time, he had guessed that it might be a field, or it might be the sky, or it might be a well.
Could it be related to the Inoue Mansion?
"Inoue Mansion." Cheng Qianfan asked coldly, "Aren't you working in Shanghai?"
"Mr. Officer, do you know about the Inoue Agency?" Eguchi Hide couldn't help but asked in surprise. The Inoue Mansion has been established for more than a year. Because it has no superficial contact with other official Japanese spy agencies, it has always been very hidden. It can be said that it has no reputation.
Unexpectedly, it has already attracted the attention of the Chinese secret service?
Cheng Qianfan sneered, "I'm asking you, just answer my questions. Now let's talk about the situation of Inoue Mansion in detail."
Eguchiying also consciously understood that this was a test of his answer, and he did not dare to hide anything.
Moreover, he had no intention of hiding it. Eguchi Hide was also very smart. He knew that if he decided to surrender, he would have to sell his side thoroughly so that he could have the greatest chance of survival.
A thoroughly 'well-behaved' Japanese agent who betrayed his own intelligence would surely be of interest to the Chinese secret service.
…
The Inoue Mansion was founded by Inoue Hiko, a ronin from the Japanese Black Dragon Society, and does not belong to the Japanese military or any other official spy agency.
Inoue Yan used the development of Japan-China trade as a cover, recruited a group of ronin from Japan as the backbone, and bribed some traitors as minions. His main tasks were to spy on intelligence, assassinate, kidnap, and sabotage.
Be ruthless, use any means, and have no bottom line.
This is the way the Inoue Mansion behaves.
In addition, because the Inoue Mansion attaches great importance to "recruiting" local traitors and is very familiar with the local situation, the Inoue Agency has repeatedly accomplished some tasks that other Japanese spy agencies have been unable to complete.
Therefore, although the Inoue Mansion is just a spy organization composed of Japanese ronin, it is not an official Japanese organization.
However, due to their outstanding achievements in espionage activities, they were recognized and actively supported by the Japanese Army General Staff Headquarters and the Japanese Consulate in Shanghai.
In terms of activity funds, Inoueyan can even receive unlimited funds from the Japanese Military Headquarters or Consulate in Shanghai at any time.
…
"Hiroshi Endo is the leader of this intelligence team?"
"Yes, the team leader is Hiroshi Endo, a fellow Osaka fellow of Director Inoue."
"The names and identities of several other people."
"The first person killed by Mr. Officer was Maeda Shoichi. He was a telegraph operator."
When Cheng Qianfan heard this, he showed an annoyed expression.
In fact, I was very happy in my heart. It was indeed good luck. The guy he randomly chose to be 'faked to death' turned out to be a telegraph operator. It would be a pity if the guy he actually shot to death was a telegraph operator.
Seeing the annoyed look of the national army officer, Eguchi Hide also sighed. In this group, he had a good relationship with Maeda Shoichi. Unexpectedly, Maeda was shot to death by the Chinese officer when he came up.
"The second person shot to death by Mr. Officer was Kinoshita Hyōsaburo. He was an action team member."
"Oguri Motomitsu, action team member."
"Kurai Shinnosuke, action team member."
"Jun Kobayashi, member of the intelligence team."
Seeing Eguchi Hideya's words being hesitant, Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly.
"Jun Kobayashi often sleeps with Hiroshi Endo." Eguchi Eiichi said quickly.
Cheng Qianfan frowned. This kind of thing is not uncommon among Japanese people. When he was at East Asia Tongwen College, he had heard about the special habits of some Japanese students.
"So, Jun Kobayashi will know some of Hiroshi Endo's secrets?"
"Maybe." Eguchi Hide said uncertainly. They didn't think highly of Kobayashi Jun, so their relationship with Kobayashi was very average.
"Why did you leave Shanghai and come to Hangzhou for activities?" Cheng Qianfan asked a question that he was very concerned about.
"The Endo team came to Hangzhou to spy on intelligence. It was an order issued by the Imperial Army General Staff Headquarters to the Inoue Mansion through Colonel Kage Sasayaki of the Imperial Consulate in Shanghai." Eguchi Hideya answered honestly.
