However, this method of contact also has its disadvantages. That is, if one party encounters something unexpectedly, it may be delayed.
Early the next morning, Hua Zhang got up and went out with Fan Keqin one after another. Still using the old method, go to the restaurant run by the little devil for a meal before going out, and then deliberately buy some things at the shops on both sides of the street. And all the things I bought had Japanese language printed on them. In this way, carrying it while walking can give many people a psychological hint.
The secret code arrangement went very smoothly. Fan Keqin was always helping Hua Zhang look at the surrounding situation from behind. Hua Zhang, according to the code Fan Keqin told him, picked up a small stone and drew it on a specific place.
Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang had nothing to do next. They stayed in the hotel and went out almost once a day to get a normal life track. In fact, they went to specific places to see if there was any reply.
No! This shows that Toshizo Shinoda will go to appointments on time. Unless something suddenly happened to him just before the appointment.
Soon another day passed, and Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang were still in the same routine, going out to eat and buy things for the little devil. Then he carried the things with Japanese language outside and arrived at the appointment place in advance.
This is a small izakaya run by a woman, and it's on Hanmin Road, which is not too far away. The landlady is not pretty, but very charming. Wearing a kimono, it’s a bit tempting to take a peek.
The normal business of this izakaya is pretty good, mainly relying on the charm of the proprietress to keep the place going. Therefore, every night, especially after five-thirty, the idle kids nearby or the guys who got together after get off work would come over to have a drink and have fun.
But now there is no one in this izakaya. Because it’s just three o’clock in the afternoon. It's not time to pick up customers yet. Fan Keqin observed outside for a long time. After seeing a familiar figure entering the izakaya, he observed again for a long time and found no problems. Then he turned around and said, "Please keep an eye on me outside. There is a situation." As long as I create a little chaos, I can take the opportunity to escape."
"Understood." Hua Zhang said, "Brother, be careful."
"Don't worry. It's okay." After Fan Keqin said this, he turned around and left the single room of the Japanese Tea House, and went downstairs to the izakaya diagonally opposite.
After entering, Shinoda Toisho was alone. He ordered a bottle of sake on the table and was pouring it for himself, drinking it slowly. But there were no dishes on the table.
Seeing this, Fan Keqin spoke in Japanese to the proprietress who came up to him, pointed at Shinoda Toshizo, and said, "I'm looking for him." After saying that, he walked over directly.
Toshiro Shinoda is a spy himself, and his acting skills are also very good. When he saw Fan Keqin coming over, he spoke to him in Japanese language with great enthusiasm.
Fan Keqin could understand a few words here and there, which were nothing more than words like long time no see, drinking, old classmates. When these words are connected, Fan Keqin can also understand the general meaning of what he said. Therefore, I thought about it and said in some Japanese I knew: "Drink, you are no match for me." Then he and Toshizo Shinoda burst into laughter. He seemed to be very familiar with him.
Shinoda Toisho turned around and started to order the landlady, asking for a private room and some sashimi, sushi and the like. Under the guidance of the landlady, Fan Keqin and I entered the single room on the back.
(Ask for leave: I have something to do again today, that’s all, I’ll resume tomorrow. Mmmah)
