Cheng Qianfan took out a legal currency from his wallet and placed it on the coffee table, picked up his briefcase, and left the cafe.
This briefcase is exactly the same as Hyoutaro Imamura's briefcase.
He has several briefcases, one is the same as Peter's briefcase, one was given to him by Bai Ruolan after his marriage, one is the same as Kage Saeiichi's briefcase, one is the same as Sanbonjiro's briefcase, and the other is This one.
He would rotate several briefcases, just to impress everyone.
And, if necessary, his briefcase collection will grow further.
He showed up at Hyōtaro Imamura's home with this briefcase. Even if he was later investigated, there was no loophole.
Cheng Qianfan has always believed in the principle that anything exposed is due to the negligence of subtleties. Therefore, he pays special attention to details and pays attention to taking precautions when doing things.
After leaving the cafe, Cheng Qianfan played with the key that Sakamoto Yoshino gave him and couldn't help but frown.
He couldn't wait in Sakamoto Yoshino's room.
The Richa Hotel is not far from the Consulate General of Japan in Shanghai. The people at the Richa Hotel obviously know the identity of Sakamoto Yoshino.
He could chat with Sakamoto Yoshino in a coffee shop. After all, Inspector Xiaocheng had a wide circle of friends and could talk to people from all walks of life and all over the world. It was not surprising that he knew the Japanese in the Consulate General.
However, if he took the key given by Sakamoto Yoshino and entered Sakamoto Yoshino's room at the Richa Hotel, the nature would be different.
If it falls in the eyes of interested people, it will inevitably arouse concern and suspicion.
Cheng Qianfan shook his head. Even when faced with many cunning people, he could handle it with ease. On the contrary, facing such a natural-tempered Sakamoto Yoshino, he sometimes felt caught off guard.
…
Cheng Qianfan went directly to the Richa Hotel and asked someone to book a room across from Sakamoto Yoshino's room.
Then, he used the phone in the room to make a call.
"It's me." Cheng Qianfan's call was to Hao Zai, who was on duty in the patrol room. "Go find Datou Lu and ask him to get me an antique tea set. I need it urgently and gave it away."
"After you get it, send it to Room 213 of the Rich Hotel."
On the other end of the phone, Hao Zai nodded, "Yes, Inspector."
After hanging up the phone, Hao Zai took out a cigarette and thought.
The call was made according to the original plan, and the team leader arranged for him to get a gift. This was also a code indicating that the plan was going well, and the team leader was allowed to enter Hyōtaro Imamura's birthday party.
However, according to the original plan, the team leader would wait for him at a teahouse on Hankou Road to deliver gifts.
Now the sudden change of location to Hotel Le Cha was an unexpected change.
However, the team leader did not give a signal to terminate the plan, indicating that everything should still be under control.
Hao Zai found Da Toulu and told the inspector's request.
Da Toulu immediately patted his chest and promised to get an antique tea set that would satisfy the inspector.
…
Lying on the bed, Cheng Qianfan closed his eyes and rested.
In fact, he had the urge to enter Ryōno Sakamoto's room. Ryōno Imamura was an assistant and there might be valuable information in his lounge.
However, he cannot afford to lose the big for the small.
The direct target of this trip is Hyōtaro Imamura.
…
The Consulate General of Japan in Shanghai.
Second floor.
Hyōtaro Imamura's office.
"You said you just met Kentaro Miyazaki?" Hyōtaro Imamura asked in surprise.
"Yes, sir, I met Miyazaki-kun by chance at the entrance of the Richa Hotel." Hyōtaro Imamura said.
Back at the Consulate General, Sakamoto Yoshino thought about it carefully and realized that his behavior was somewhat inappropriate.
After all, this was Hyoutarou Imamura's birthday party, and he had just acted as his substitute, sending invitations to the guests on behalf of the host.
Therefore, after thinking about it, he felt that he should report to Hyoutaro Imamura first.
"I didn't expect Miyazaki-kun to come to Shanghai." Hyōtaro Imamura said with a smile, "You are like-minded friends. We haven't seen each other for more than a year. It's no wonder that Yoshino is in a good mood today."
"What did you talk about?" Hyōtaro Imamura asked with great interest, "How is Miyazaki-kun now?"
Sakamoto Ryo was overjoyed in his ambition. It seems that Lord Imamura has always cared about Miyazaki-kun.
He then told the story of how the two met.
Sakamoto Yoshino, who was in a happy mood, even let slip that in order to avoid Miyazaki Kentaro's embarrassment, he threw the key to Miyazaki Kentaro and left quickly.
Sakamoto Yoshino did not notice that when he talked about this matter, the vigilance in Hyoutarou Imamura's eyes faded and his eyes became gentle.
"Sir, without your consent, I invited Miyazaki-kun to your birthday party. I hope you won't be offended." Sakamoto Yoshino said.
"It doesn't matter, I didn't know that Miyazaki-kun was actually in Shanghai before. Otherwise, I would have met him a long time ago." Imamura Hyōtaro smiled and nodded, "Miyazaki-kun, like you, is also a young talent that I admire very much. We can meet him again this time." He, I’m happy.”
"Great, I knew your husband would be happy to see Miyazaki-kun." Sakamoto Yoshino said happily.
…
After Sakamoto Yoshino left, Hyōtaro Imamura lit a cigarette and took a puff.
The Super High School is nominally led by the Imperial Consulate General in Shanghai. Iwai Eiichi has been trying to deepen his influence and control over the Super High School. Hyotarō Imamura was arranged by Iwai Eiichi to go deep into the Shanghai Super High School. antenna.
Therefore, he knew some of the secrets of the Special Higher Education Course.
Among them is the incident of Miyazaki Kentaro pretending to be Chinese Cheng Qianfan and breaking into the patrol house in the French Concession.
When Sakamoto Ryano met Kentaro Miyazaki, his first reaction was that Kentaro Miyazaki was not secretive.
However, after listening to Sakamoto Yoshino's introduction, it was confirmed that this was an 'accidental encounter' incident.
Afterwards, Imamura became suspicious again when he heard that Sakamoto Yoshino invited Miyazaki Kentaro to his birthday party.
He didn't doubt that Kentaro Miyazaki was disloyal to the empire.
Instead, he suspected that Miyazaki wanted to get closer to him through Sakamoto Yoshino and get closer to him.
Objectively speaking, Hyotarō Imamura admires Kentaro Miyazaki quite a lot, but he doesn't want the person he wants to act too utilitarian.
Especially since this is an Imperial sleeper agent.
Kentaro Miyazaki's identity should not be exposed too much. Although his birthday party was held by Japanese insiders, there is no need to worry about leaks. However, this is a matter of principle that latent agents should abide by as much as possible.
Yes, Hyoutaro Imamura admires Kentaro Miyazaki and intends to recruit him, but he hopes that after his recruitment intention is conveyed, the other party will come closer instead of violating the principles of agents and acting on his own.
He doesn't like people who are too arrogant.
However, I heard that Sakamoto Yoshino took the initiative to invite him, and even without waiting for Kentaro Miyazaki to refuse, he put down the key and left directly.
Hyōtaro Imamura put down his doubts, but at the same time he couldn't laugh or cry. That is to say, only a simple person like Sakamoto Yoshino could do such a thing.
…
Hyōtaro Imamura thought for a moment and pressed the bell.
Someone came in immediately.
"There is something, go and investigate it." Imamura Hyōtaro ordered.
He believed what Sakamoto Yoshino said, but he still wanted to investigate the whole story.
For example, why did 'Cheng Qianfan' appear near the Licha Hotel.
For example, what did 'Cheng Qianfan' do after Sakamoto Yoshino left.
Regardless of doubts, since he was going to meet Kentaro Miyazaki this time, he had the opportunity to get closer to this young man. Depending on the situation, if possible, he would take advantage of the opportunity to express his intention to recruit.
This is mainly because His Excellency Eiichi Iwai has always wanted to build a secret service agency that is exclusive to him. Hyōtaro Imamura is in charge of this matter, and now is the time to recruit troops.
Arranging people to investigate, he just wanted to know more about the young man he admired out of habit.
Observe his words and deeds and recognize his abilities and character.
