"The patient's condition is very unstable. We have done our best. Now it depends on the patient's own will to survive."
Kenji Doihara listened carefully to the doctor's words.
Tian Qi cannot die, absolutely cannot die.
He was urgently brought from the public concession to the Japanese-controlled area, and then Kenji Doihara used all top medical resources to rescue him.
He must live!
"Your Excellency General."
Yanagawa Yasunjun, Hahara Koichi, and Miyomichi Hiroshi appeared together in front of Doihara Kenji.
He found that Hahara Koichi's face was not very good-looking: "Is it okay if you don't have any rest?"
"Yeah, I've been doing an experiment."
Hahara Koichi immediately replied: "How did Miao Chengfang break away from the rope and fight back when he was tied up. There are only two possibilities for this situation to happen. The first one is that Tian Qi deliberately did not tie him tightly, creating Opportunity to counterattack. To increase our trust in Tian Qi."
"Did you do it on purpose?" Doihara Kenji said coldly: "Now let me tell you the doctor's diagnosis. Miao Chengfang's knife stabbed very deep and very hard. It was definitely aimed at killing people. So Tian Qi is not out of danger yet."
"I know, but I have to verify it." Koichi Hahara said: "Then, there is the second possibility. Miao Chengfang broke free by his own ability, so I had people tie me up and keep trying. I simulated the scene, including the speed of the dialogue. In the first fifty times, I only succeeded twice."
Doihara Kenji was a little surprised: "I tried it fifty times?"
"More than that." Koichi Hahara replied calmly: "Later, I gradually learned some tricks. When the other party is tying you, open your hands slightly. Then, a slack will be formed between the ropes, and then the body will be tied. On the pillar, with your hands behind the pillar and your movements concealed, you can break free of the rope. I tried fifty more times, and this time, I succeeded more than twenty times."
"Until the time I went to find Lieutenant Colonel Hahara, he was conducting the third fifty tests." Yanagawa Yasumi helped him and said: "These fifty tests were conducted under my supervision, and four of them were successful. Fifteen times!”
"For a detail that almost everyone ignored, you actually conducted one hundred and fifty experiments." Kenji Doihara seemed to be moved: "Lieutenant Colonel Hahara, the empire needs talents like you."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Excellency General." Koichi Hahara said without any pride: "Your Excellency, General, ordered the three of us to set up an investigation team to investigate this incident. Therefore, there must be no sloppiness."
"So, what were the results of the investigation?"
This time, Yanagawa Yasunjun, the leader of the investigation team, answered: "The results of the investigation, there is no doubt that Tian Qi lurked inside us with Miao Chengfang with a special mission. However, in this process, During the war, his mentality changed, and he turned to betray the military commander, massacred their so-called comrades, and was eager to make meritorious deeds.
He has the leverage in Miao Chengfang's hands, so he doesn't dare to reveal Miao Chengfang's identity, fearing that if he does, he will lose our trust. So when he found out that Miao Chengfang was about to be exposed, his first reaction was to kill Miao Chengfang before us, kill people and silence him, and cover up the secret forever. But he didn't expect that he would be counterattacked by Miao Chengfang. "
He then took a document from Hanbara Koichi: "We have repeatedly studied all the cases handled by Tian Qi. Tian Qi is too obsessed with making meritorious deeds. He is worried that once his true identity is exposed, he can rely on his outstanding achievements. Save yourself. Especially since there was absolutely no possibility of him committing any fraud from arrest, interrogation, to killing Miao Chengfang."
"So what's your conclusion?"
"Regardless of Tian Qi's previous identity, he is trustworthy."
"Look, what an interesting thing." Doihara Kenji smiled: "A latent spy of the military commander suddenly became one of ours, and he was capable and loyal. He completely placed himself on the opposite side of the military commander. In addition to relying on We, he no longer has any escape route, especially after he killed Miao Chengfang, what other choice does he have?
Everyone has their own secret, and Tian Qi also has his secret. Now, the secret is known to us. what should we do? Tell him that you are a latent spy for the military commander? No, that's not the right choice. I think we can pretend that we don’t know anything, and that Tian Qi’s true identity has never been exposed. "
Yanagawa Yasumi nodded slightly.
"Your Excellency, General, is brilliant." Hahara Koichi said sincerely: "If you want to completely conquer a person, it is essential to allow him to have a secret, and even help him keep this secret. Now, Miao Chengfang is dead, Tian Qi thinks The only one who knows his true identity is Meng Shaoyuan. But he can definitely say that Meng Shaoyuan is framing him. Anyway, Meng Shaoyuan has no way to come to us and testify against Tian Qi in person!"
"Yes, then let him keep this secret that he thinks is very safe."
Kenji Doihara is sure of victory.
"Your Majesty General, Tian Qi is awake."
"Yeah?"
Kenji Doihara perked up and said, "Let's go see this warrior of the empire."
Tian Qi woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw several Japanese people.
The old seedling is dead.
Lao Miao is dead!
Lao Miao, your last stab was so cruel, you almost killed me!
The first words Tian Qi opened his mouth were: "Miao Chengfang, spy."
"Ah, we know." Doihara Kenji said with concern on his face: "We spent a lot of effort to discover this. When we rushed to the scene, we found you in a life-and-death struggle with him."
"Is he still alive?" Tian Qi asked.
"he died."
Doihara Kenji noticed that Tian Qi showed an obviously relaxed expression.
Your secret can be hidden forever.
Really, Mr. Tian?
Don't worry, no one will tell this secret without my permission.
"Your Excellency, Director of the Agency, I make an opinion without asking for instructions..."
"No, Mr. Tian, the situation was urgent at that time. Anyone would have done the same thing as you." Kenji Doihara comforted him: "I will report the specific process after you recover from your injury."
After speaking, his expression became serious: "Mr. Tian Qi, I am now announcing a personnel appointment to you. In view of Miao Chengfang's identity as a spy and his death, I have decided to appoint you as the Acting Director of the Intelligence Headquarters!"
Acting Director of Intelligence Headquarters!
Director Tian!
Tian Qi knew that he had succeeded.
No, it was myself and Lao Miao who succeeded.
He regained the Japanese people's trust in him!
Rest in peace, old man.
Let me help you finish the unfinished business.
For victory!
"Your physical condition is very poor." Kenji Doihara checked the time: "Your main task now is to recover from your injuries. Of course, I hope you can return to the team as soon as possible. We all need you."
"Yes, Your Excellency, Agency Chief, I will try my best."
"Lieutenant Hahara, from now on you will be personally responsible for Mr. Tian's safety. You are not allowed to take a step away from him until he is discharged from the hospital."
"Yes, General."
"Mr. Tian, we are all waiting for your return."
"Your Excellency, Director of the agency, thank you for your concern."
Doihara Kenji left, and Hahara Koichi moved a stool and sat down next to the hospital bed: "Mr. Tian, can we chat? Ah, don't worry, I'll tell you, just listen."
Tian Qi nodded.
"Miao Chengfang's identity has indeed been exposed, but during the investigation, I still found some doubts." Koichi Hahara said slowly: "How did he gain the trust of General Fujiwara? That Nagasaka Hiromichi who recommended him before Are there any problems? In many cases, I found that Miao Chengfang cannot do it alone. He must have helpers."
Is Hahara Koichi still doubting himself?
No, no, if he really still doubted himself, he wouldn't have said these words in front of him.
Hanbara Koichi didn't know what Tian Qi was thinking at the moment: "Especially the assassination at the New Asia Hotel, who did it? Was Miao Chengfang involved in it? Mr. Tian, do you know why I don't doubt you? Because of you There is no power to assassinate a Japanese dignitary at the New Asia Hotel. There must be a spy hidden behind this assassination.
I roughly imagined this person. He has been lurking within us for a long time, and no one among us would suspect him. In fact, his status is relatively high, and I have come to the conclusion that this potential spy is definitely not assigned by Meng Shaoyuan. "
"Why?"
"From the time Meng Shaoyuan arrived in Shanghai, he had no chance to send such a spy to lurk among us." Koichi Hahara said with great certainty: "Since 1936, I have done some research on all the rebels, arrests, and missing persons in the Shanghai area of the military command. Careful research shows that none of them are this person, so this person began to lurk before 1936 or earlier."
"Have you studied all the people in the past two years?"
"Yes, it took me several months. After Liao Yuting's identity was exposed, I always felt that there was someone behind him. If we don't catch this moth, we won't be able to settle down."
"Hahara-kun, you are really amazing."
This sentence was said by Tian Qi sincerely. Although they are enemies, Koichi Hahara has all the necessary conditions to become a qualified intelligence officer.
"I'm nothing great." Han Yuanguang smiled: "I said, my talent is not as good as Meng Shaoyuan, so I have to be more diligent than him. It may take him a minute to figure out a problem, but it takes me a minute. Hours, a day, a month, but I don’t care, as long as I can solve the case, I am willing to pay this price.”
"You are my student." Tian Qi's wound hurt badly, but he still said seriously: "We have an old saying in China, God rewards hard work. You will definitely succeed."
God rewards hard work!
Now, Tian Qi knew why Meng Baifeng pushed himself so hard.
For the sake of Lao Miao and for all the people, I must live well!
