Sakamoto Yoshino noticed the change in Cheng Qianfan's expression.
"Miyazaki-kun, what's wrong?" Sakamoto Yoshino asked.
"The man who came in from the outside is a Chinese who is relatively friendly to the empire." Cheng Qianfan said, "He knows me."
Glancing at Sakamoto Yoshino, he added, "This person only knows my Chinese identity."
Sakamoto Yoshino understood, "If outsiders know that you are a subject of the empire, will it bring danger to you?"
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "I'll find a corner to take shelter."
He looked around and saw that there was no hiding place in the living room on the first floor.
"I'll take you to the guest room upstairs. You can rest there first and avoid it for the time being." Sakamoto Yoshino said.
"That's not right." Cheng Qianfan said, looking towards the yard with a slightly anxious expression, seeing that the man outside was about to enter the living room.
"It's okay, I have used that guest room before, just for guests." Sakamoto Yoshino said.
As Cheng Qianfan followed Sakamoto Yoshino upstairs, he said, "It's best to ask Mr. Imamura for instructions. You have a close relationship with Mr. Imamura, so of course it's okay, but I..."
"I'll tell Uncle Imamura later, don't worry, it's okay." Sakamoto Yoshino said.
When he reached the second floor, he took out the key from his pocket and opened the door, "Miyazaki-kun, please rest for a while. I'm going down to help."
"I'm causing you trouble." Cheng Qianfan said politely.
"You and I are friends, and I took the liberty to invite you here, but I caused you trouble." Sakamoto Yoshino said.
He took Cheng Qianfan to a guest room on the second floor, settled in for a while, told him to rest for a while, and even took the initiative to close the curtains for him. Sakamoto Yoshino went downstairs and left.
He is the nephew of Hyōtaro Imamura. Hyōtaro Imamura's son is still in Japan. Therefore, as a nephew, Sakamoto Yoshino has the obligation to help welcome and send him off today, and he is also quite busy.
…
Things went smoother than Cheng Qianfan expected.
Liu Mingfei, who appeared in the yard just now, was actually lured by him by deliberately setting a trap.
This man is a hard-core traitor, dedicated to serving the Japanese.
Moreover, he is very good at sneaking into the camp, and he tries his best to fawn over the Japanese people he comes into contact with.
Let's put it this way, whenever important people in Japan have weddings, funerals, birthdays, or birthdays, Liu Mingfei will never be absent as long as he can get in touch with them, and he will definitely come with generous gifts.
Cheng Qianfan arranged for someone to accidentally let Liu Mingfei know that Hyoutaro Imamura's birthday was today.
Bunyusha, a pro-Japanese literary society, has the shadow of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai. To be precise, Imamura Hyoutaro has the authority to guide and govern Bunyusha.
It's his master's birthday, and since Liu Mingfei knows about it, he will definitely come.
Of course, Cheng Qianfan would not 'bet' all his hopes on Liu Mingfei.
Chen Yun and Liu Naiyu, two other pro-Japanese literati from the 'Literary Friendship Society', will also learn about this news. These two people are also hard-working people. If nothing unexpected happens, they will also come to congratulate the Japanese master on his birthday. .
Three people, three insurances. All Cheng Qianfan needs is for at least one of the three to be here.
He could use the reason that others knew him and needed "temporary refuge" to get the opportunity to hide in the guest room on the second floor:
There was nowhere to hide on the first floor, and this was part of his plan.
He had been worried about two things. First, none of the three people showed up, or they arrived late, and he did not have enough time to take action.
One is that Hyōtaro Imamura did not allow him to go to the second floor to rest, and even directly said, "In that case, Miyazaki-kun leaves first, and we will talk about it another day." That was helpless.
Now, Liu Mingfei has arrived as he wished.
As a 'half-owner', Sakamoto Yoshino directly passed Imamura Hyoutarou and introduced him to the guest room on the second floor.
The two most critical issues, and the ones he was most worried about, were easily solved.
This is the reason why Cheng Qianfan deliberately made friends with Sakamoto Yoshino when he first met him and became good friends.
Naturally, he didn't know that it would be useful today, but Cheng Qianfan always adhered to the principle of taking precautions and watering the fruit in advance before eating the fruit.
…
After Sakamoto Yoshino left, Cheng Qianfan went out and listened to the noise downstairs.
It was quite lively.
He immediately closed the guest room door, took his briefcase, and walked straight to a room on the left.
If Hyōtaro Imamura had not made any special modifications to the villa, that room would have been a study.
Cheng Qianfan took out a thin wire from his body and opened the door in only ten seconds.
He took out a small flashlight from his briefcase.
Cover the flashlight with the palm of your hand to ensure that the light is suppressed and does not attract outside attention.
His judgment was correct, this was Hyoutarou Imamura's study.
Shining the flashlight, he saw a briefcase on the chair behind the desk.
Cheng Qianfan was excited. He had no time to stay in the study and slowly search for the documents in the briefcase.
He first checked that Hyōtaro Imamura's briefcase was 'normal' and had no markings set.
Then he picked up the briefcase.
Then, he put his identical briefcase on the chair.
When he was about to leave the room, he stopped.
Then he walked back and placed the briefcase a little further inside. This is where the briefcase was placed just now.
There is only one purpose for doing this. If someone enters the study and does not come specifically to get the briefcase, but just glances at it casually, he will not pick up the briefcase and check it if no one has touched it.
This can buy him valuable time.
…
Afterwards, Cheng Qianfan took Hyoutaro Imamura's briefcase and exited the study, opened the guest room door with the key, and locked the door.
He did not open Hyōtaro Imamura's briefcase immediately, but carefully looked at the appearance to confirm whether there were any special marks.
There is nothing unusual about the appearance.
Cheng Qianfan carefully put a very small hook on the end of the wire, put the wire into the keyhole of the briefcase, and shook his wrist twice.
Then a click was heard.
The lock on the briefcase was unlocked.
He didn't open the briefcase impatiently, but carefully and slowly opened it.
I saw a short black line.
Cheng Qianfan looked at it and found where the thread was fixed, and very carefully untied the black thread tightly tied to the keyhole.
This black line is very thin and not long.
The lower part is tied to the keyhole, and the upper part is stuck with a small piece of tape.
The tape sticks tightly to the inside of the briefcase, but the effect of sticking the black line is average and not reliable.
If he hadn't noticed the black line just now and opened the briefcase directly, the thread on the black line would have peeled off the tape and fallen down the moment he opened it.
At that moment, people's eyes will subconsciously be on the pile of documents in the briefcase. Unless they are very careful and can pay attention to other details, they will notice the black line falling instantly.
Therefore, this is an early warning device. When the briefcase is placed out of sight, Hyōtaro Imamura can use this black line to determine whether his briefcase has been touched.
