Missing hostage rescued!
Shanghai's newspapers of all sizes published the news at the same time!
After obtaining sufficient intelligence, Colonel Dotny of the Italian military camp in the public concession ordered his subordinate Major Duyeri to successfully raid a warehouse.
After a 20-minute fierce battle between the two sides, Italian soldiers killed fifteen kidnappers, captured three alive, and successfully rescued the missing hostages, former Italian Aditi death squad commander Roligani and his wife Jobrina.
Some people once questioned the recollections of passers-by who witnessed the entire incident at that time. There were only three kidnappers in total, and only a few shots were fired at the scene.
In response, Colonel Dotny sternly rebutted, stating solemnly that the kidnappers were an organized criminal gang with a large number of personnel and powerful firepower. If it were not for the brave and fearless Italian soldiers, it would be difficult to win.
Whatever the truth, the Roliganis were finally saved.
The farce has finally come to an end.
As for the British man "Madigan", according to what the Roligani and his wife said afterwards, he found an opportunity to escape the day after the kidnapping.
It is not known how the Roligani couple were kidnapped and how the Roligani couple, who had been rushed to the Italian Consulate, responded.
Anyway, the Italian side has not released any documents from beginning to end.
As for Japan, the hanging heart was finally put down.
Everyone knows that this was done by Meng Shaoyuan and the military commanders, and definitely not the so-called gang members.
However, the Japanese will never die.
They have no way to pursue it.
After all, as long as the parties involved do not speak or admit it, this matter will always remain an unsolved case.
But this is a relatively perfect ending for Japan's Shanghai Navy, consulate, and secret service agencies.
No one has to bear the pressure from the country all day long, and they can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Pretending to be stupid is often a necessary survival rule in the workplace.
The biggest contributors are undoubtedly two:
Yanagawa Yasumi and Tianqi!
The man was discovered by Yanagawa Yasunjun and cleverly rescued by the Italians.
This is what Minister Tani and Kenji Doihara are particularly grateful for.
Otherwise, the rescued Roligani couple will become a huge trouble.
Tian Qi, as Yanagawa Yasunjun's deputy, also takes great credit.
Yanagawa Yasunjun’s report commented on Tianqi:
"...He fully demonstrated his understanding of Shanghai...His tenacity, wisdom, and loyalty all show that he is the kind of talent the empire desperately needs..."
For a Chinese, this is already a high praise.
Yanagawa Yasunjun’s doubts about Tian Qi were completely lifted.
He was even very grateful to Tian Qi for helping him and helping the Japanese Empire such a big favor.
Many Japanese people know very well that Tian Qi is the protagonist who successfully rescued the Roligani couple.
But Tian Qi firmly denied this.
When asked by Kenji Doihara, he responded like this:
"Mr. Yanagawa did everything. I just assisted him... Do I have any credit? Yes, but compared to Mr. Yanagawa, it is nothing."
He gave most of the credit to Yanagawa Yasumi.
This is also the way to survive in the workplace.
Those who have merit are all from their superiors. If you have had it, you must dare to take responsibility for it.
In this way, your superiors will favor you.
"Mr. Tian, I hope you can continue to serve the empire in the future."
Doihara Kenji was obviously very satisfied with Tian Qi's attitude: "I can tell you frankly that in this incident, we suffered considerable losses, a large number of contact points were destroyed, and our agents were killed tragically. The balance of power that was finally achieved is now gone, so reconstruction is a top priority."
reconstruction?
Tian Qi's heart moved.
Kenji Doihara continued: "I have discussed with Yanagawa-kun for a long time, and we have reached a consensus. Should the Chinese be on guard? Yes... Mr. Tian, I am not targeting you, you are trustworthy... Should the Chinese use it?" ? Yes! And it must be reused, especially for talents like you... Yanagawa-kun really hopes that you will go to him to help, what does Mr. Tian mean? "
In this flash of lightning, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Tian Qi's mind.
If this plan succeeds, then his status will be greatly improved.
Tian Qi sighed softly: "I am very grateful for your kindness, Mr. Agency Chief. I have explained my attitude to Mr. Yanagawa before. I hope to cooperate with Lieutenant Colonel Hahara even more. It makes me feel relaxed and happy there."
Relaxed and happy? From the mouth of an agent, a traitor?
Of course, Kenji Doihara also knew that Yanagawa Yasunumi made Tian Qi sad because of his previous distrust. After all, even as a traitor, he still has dignity.
"Mr. Tian, I respect your choice." Doihara Kenji decided to try his best to persuade: "Habara Koichi is also serving the empire, and in fact there should be no distinction between them. However, Yanagawa-kun is a meritorious service to the empire after all. I have done a lot of things with humiliation, so I think you should reconsider."
Doihara Kenji was really in a dilemma.
Yanagawa Yasunjun told him clearly that this time, he did not need any reward. The only condition was to let Tian Qi become his assistant.
But now Tian Qi’s attitude is so determined?
Kenji Doihara cannot show partiality openly.
"Actually, we are all working for the Empire of Japan, so how can we distinguish each other?" Tian Qi said lightly: "You have established a special work department, and everyone works in this work department. We are all one family, and It’s not that any new department has emerged. And I also heard that you have sent Mr. Qingqi Qingyin to Hong Kong and invited an important person to Shanghai. Ah, are you going to set up some new department? That will allow us to Shanghai’s strength has been greatly enhanced.”
Doihara Kenji's heart moved.
He sent Qingqi Qingyin to Hong Kong to secretly negotiate with Li Shiqun, and came to Shanghai to form a spy organization composed mostly of Chinese people to join forces with the Japanese spy agency.
During this period, Kenji Doihara also reflected for a long time. In Greater Shanghai, it was impossible to achieve substantial breakthroughs by relying solely on Japan's own strength.
The Chinese will inevitably play an increasingly important role in this.
Li Shiqun is a person he values very much.
However, Li Shiqun made many demands and was still unable to finally make up his mind. At this time, Qingqi Qingyin might be engaged in a long bargaining session with Li Shiqun in Hong Kong, right?
Tian Qi!
Why can't we make full use of Tianqi?
Firstly, this can accumulate experience for the future; secondly, it can also put pressure on Li Shiqun and tell him that the Empire of Japan may not necessarily use you, we have other options!
And the most important point is that it can create competition.
Only with competition can we continue to make progress!
"I have been looking for the pearl, but I didn't expect that the pearl is actually beside me." Kenji Doihara did not express his thoughts:
"Mr. Tian, there are some things that I need to think about carefully. You are also tired, so go back and rest."
"OK."
Tian Qi stood up.
He doesn't need Doihara Kenji to commit himself to anything right now.
But he knew that a seed had been planted in Doihara Kenji's heart.
What he has to do is how to use external forces to make this seed take root and sprout quickly.
At this time, Tian Qi was in high spirits.
The feeling of regaining trust and gaining power, if only he knew best.
"Mr. Tian."
Hahara Koichi has been waiting for him outside for a long time: "Your Excellency, the head of the agency must have given you a great evaluation. Look, I came specifically to pick you up and celebrate your success. I ordered a small table of meals."
"It's not bad. Let's talk about it after we get in the car."
Tian Qiyi got on the car and immediately said: "Your Excellency, the head of the agency, gave me a fair evaluation, but he suggested that I serve as Mr. Yanagawa's assistant."
Habara Hikaru frowned.
This was not what he wanted to hear.
Getting Tian Qi is equivalent to adding one of the most important arms.
He knew this from a long time ago.
Yanagawa Yasumi?
That Yanagawa Yasumi who extremely distrusts Tian Qi?
After proving that Tian Qi is reliable and trustworthy, and finding great value in him, is he ready to fight for Tian Qi again?
But Koichi Hahara couldn't compete with Yanagawa Yasumi.
Yanagawa Yasumi's official rank was higher than his, and he gained more trust and respect from Doihara Kenji.
The most critical thing is probably Tian Qi's attitude.
"So what do you think, Mr. Tian?" Koichi Hahara asked casually.
Tian Qi did not answer immediately.
He was silent for a while and then said: "I have clearly told the agency director and Mr. Yanagawa that I prefer to work with you."
A smile appeared on Hahara Koichi's face.
Tian Qi said very seriously: "I don't mean to flatter you just because you are by my side, but I mean it very seriously. Everyone needs to be trusted, and traitors are no exception. Mr. Yanagawa asked me to I feel very sad. It is difficult for me to cooperate with such a person. Trust, it is too difficult to achieve these two words.
However, Mr. Hahara, the decision-making power of many things is not in our hands. We can only passively follow orders. But if I were really forced to become Mr. Yanagawa’s subordinate, I would feel very awkward and unhappy. Mr. Hahara, I personally implore you to explain this to the agency director. "
"This makes it very difficult for me." Hanbara Koichi smiled bitterly: "You are my friend, and I don't want to deceive my friend. I have no way to compete with Mr. Yanagawa. But please don't worry, I will find a way. I will definitely find a way.”
Tian Qi did not go any further. He knew that it was almost done at this point. All that was left was for the Japanese to take the initiative to make certain requests. All he has to do is wait patiently.
A Chinese, but can the Japanese start a fight?
When Tian Qi thought about this, he still felt that there was something to be proud of!
