Kuroki Asada? What did you ask him to do? "
When Meng Shaoyuan mentioned Kuroki Mata, He Guangtao was startled for a moment, and then said: "This person was just transferred here. The original director of the Concession Municipal Affairs Office was Ichikawa Yuma. Why did Kuangsha Literature Network let Kuroki replace him? ?There is another inside story here.
Since the Nationalist Government took back the British Concession and the German Concession in Hankou and established the First and Third Special Zones, the Hankou Concession actually evolved into a dispute between France and Germany.
That person has been quietly expanding the concession, which inevitably touches the interests of the French. Therefore, despite these great powers, they always talk so nice in their mouths, but once their own interests are violated, everyone will Don't want to let it go.
In December last year, I remember it was just after Christmas for foreigners. A French couple named Alfonso came to Hankou to play. After entering the concession, they disappeared. It just so happened that at that time, the French and I were entangled with each other because of the interests left behind in Hualou Street in the previous British Concession. They were fighting verbally and in writing, and no one would give in. The French took this opportunity to attack.
They said that Alfonso and his wife disappeared in the concession, so the concession must give an explanation and ensure the safety of Alfonso and his wife. As for me, I just promised that I would try my best to solve the case, but there has been no real progress.
In the end, the French couldn't wait any longer. They quietly sent their own detectives into the concession to conduct investigations. In the end, guess whose sex they found? Former concession municipal director Ichikawa Yuma.
Specifically, it was like this. Alfonso and his wife went to a restaurant owned by him for dinner, and they got into an argument because of the language barrier. This restaurant was opened by Ichikawa Yuma’s brother-in-law, and there was a backstage. Alfonso moved his hands.
Alfonso is a tall man, but Ichikawa's brother-in-law was beaten up. How could he be willing to accept it? I secretly found a few ronin and caught up with Alfonso. I originally wanted to beat him up to vent my anger, but I didn't expect that a ronin who didn't know the seriousness actually stabbed Alfonso to death.
This matter got so big that Ichikawa Yuma's brother-in-law didn't stop doing anything, so he even killed Alfonso's wife and buried the body..."
Meng Shaoyuan listened with great interest: "How did the detective know this?"
"This detective has some skills. His name is Nasri. He is very nationalistic. He followed the route taken by Alfonso and his wife before they disappeared and slowly found clues. Then he found a ronin. He probably paid a lot of money to let him. He told the truth." He Guangtao took a sip of wine and continued:
"Although we knew what happened, and even found the bodies of Alfonso and his wife under the guidance of the ronin, we, especially Yuma Ichikawa, refused to admit that the matter was related to them. The ronin who provided the report immediately He also disappeared, probably silenced?
You can't even imagine that there was something even more outrageous. Nasri had people send these reports back, and then when he was about to collect further reports, he also disappeared.
Now the French were really anxious and started a diplomatic lawsuit with us, demanding severe punishment of the murderer and ensuring the safety of their own detectives. I was the most defensive person, so I insisted on one point and came up with evidence.
Within a few days, the government found an excuse to transfer Ichikawa Yuma back to the country, and sent Kuroki Asada to take his place. As for the Alfonso case and the whereabouts of Nasri, it has always been unresolved. The French Concession, for this reason, has become an enemy. "
Meng Shaoyuan listened very carefully.
It seems like it could be used?
There are always conflicts between the great powers, and even if they collude together, it is just for the sake of interests.
"Nasri may not be dead." Meng Shaoyuan said to himself.
"No way? You've been missing for several months and you're still alive?" He Guangtao looked a little unconvinced.
"He is a detective after all. I want to kill him. Once exposed, the impact will be too great." Meng Shaoyuan pondered there: "Of course, this is just my guess. Guangtao, have we intervened in the matter of Lixingshe? ?”
"Why are we meddling?" He Guangtao disagreed: "None of these French people are good people. We hope they will fight immediately. However, Station Commander Zhou also asked us to do some investigations, and I have it in hand. Some of the lists of people involved in this matter are not to help the French solve the case, but just to see if there is anything in them that we can use."
Needless to say, none of these Lixingshe agents are simple.
We all know that "the snipe and the clam compete with each other and the fisherman gets the benefit."
"Guang Tao, I have to ask for something." Meng Shaoyuan almost had a plan in mind: "Can you give me the information and lists you have?"
"Of course there is no problem." He Guangtao had no time to think: "I will deliver it to you tomorrow."
"Not tomorrow." Meng Shaoyuan said hurriedly: "After finishing the wine in a while, I will follow you to get it."
He Guangtao agreed.
Looking at his look, he really couldn't help it: "Shao Yuan, we are classmates and good friends, so I have to ask some questions that I shouldn't ask. You came to Wuhan this time and didn't notify our webmaster. I was the one who supported me. I asked about Kuroki Mata again and asked for relevant information. Is your mission this time related to Kuroki Mata?"
"Guang Tao, I'm here on a personal basis this time." Meng Shaoyuan did not answer directly: "I will only meet you. As for you, don't tell anyone. There are some things that the fewer people know, the better."
He Guangtao was shocked.
Meng Shaoyuan was secretly reminding him not to talk too much.
Ever since he met Meng Shaoyuan, he had endured this doubt until now and never said anything. He had just been chatting with him and got interested, so he asked more questions. But this violates the taboo of Lixingshe.
After not seeing him for a while, Meng Shaoyuan had changed a bit, and he seemed to have a vague official authority.
Meng Shaoyuan was promoted to the deputy section chief of the headquarters. There was a big difference between himself and him. The less he knew about some of his things, the safer he would be for himself.
"Shao Yuan, thank you for your reminder." He Guangtao cheered up: "I just talk a lot, don't worry, you have never been to Wuhan, and I have never seen you. The signature on that document is mine I came to Nanjing to pester you to sign."
"Guang Tao, thank you very much." Meng Shaoyuan bowed his hand: "Do you think I look like an official? My tone of voice is also different from when I was in school? But I say this from the bottom of my heart, I We have never forgotten our brothers, but sometimes we have no choice but to do so due to missions. Brother Guangtao, please forgive me."
"Shao Yuan, you are out of touch when you say this." He Guangtao said: "When you were in school, although you were the youngest, you had the most ideas, and we were all willing to listen to you. After graduation, your development has been The fastest. When I met Rongyang that time, I told him that the luckiest thing for us is that we met you. The faster you are promoted, the better it will be for us. In the future, we will definitely need your support."
Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Don't worry about this. As long as I, Meng Shaoyuan, can help, I will never shirk the responsibility if you just say it. Guang Tao, after drinking this glass of wine, let's get the information together."
