In this way, Takasago Makoto, Amala, and Bim's mother and son recognized each other.
He respects his father very much, and he will definitely try his best to complete the things his father entrusts.
Therefore, he treats Amara like his biological mother and Bim like his biological brother.
He took Bhim with him.
However, he cannot announce this relationship.
The Japanese drove away the Americans and became the new masters of the Philippines.
The Alatro family was hit hard because of their full support for the Americans.
If Makoto Takasago announces his relationship with the Alatro family, it will have a great impact on his future.
At the very least, he will no longer be able to stay in Sumalaga and will be forced to return home.
So, what should Amara mother and son do?
There is no one to protect them anymore.
Takasago Makoto has always kept this secret.
Until today.
"So, on the day the gold was stolen, you were found to have come back from outside in the early morning. In fact, you were not going to steal the gold, but to visit your mother."
Meng Shaoyuan asked.
"Yes." Takasago Cheng nodded: "That day was my mother's birthday, but I had something to do all day long, so I could only go there in the early morning and stay with my mother for three hours. "
Amala also confirmed his statement.
"I stole the gold." Bim raised his voice: "It has nothing to do with my brother. All responsibilities will be borne by me."
"What a loving mother and filial son, respectful brothers and sisters." Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "Although you have all violated the laws of the empire, why do I suddenly feel some sympathy for you?"
"I am willing to bear all the responsibilities brought about by this." Takasago Makoto is still relatively tough: "I also know that Bim's crime is unpardonable, but please look at the merits I have made for the empire, and I can slightly alleviate my feelings towards him. punishment.”
After a pause, he added: "Although I think it is unlikely, I still want to say, please let me complete all the work in Tunnel 6 before reporting back to the country.
Everyone, I am not worried about taking responsibility, but the authenticity is really important to the empire. If I can complete it in time, it will not only help me atone for my sins, but it will also be beneficial to you all. "
This is true.
The various tunnels under construction are currently the top priority of the Japanese work in the Philippines.
If it can be completed successfully with quality and quantity guaranteed, everyone involved in this project will definitely have credit.
Bhim is Takasago Makoto's older brother, and he is also a gold thief.
But Beam took full responsibility.
Moreover, the gold was recovered.
Takasago Makoto just didn't truthfully report the relationship between him and the Alatro family.
Even if his superiors find out, the most they can do is give him a severe punishment and lose his future.
Moreover, if another person is sent here, it is hard to say whether it will be more difficult to deal with than Takasago Makoto, not to mention delaying the construction schedule.
Another point is that Takasago Makoto is unsophisticated, has bad relations with his colleagues, and is very arrogant.
After this time, he already had a handle in the hands of people like Mizushima Yukihei, so it was naturally much easier to control him.
Even if Mizushima Yukihei's alliance of thieves was discovered by him in the future, he would not dare to make it public.
"Amara will be detained temporarily. After interrogation and it is clear that he has nothing to do with the gold theft, we will consider how to deal with it." Mizushima Yukihei thought about it and said:
"Bim's theft of empire assets is a serious crime. Even though he is your brother, Lord Takasago, we cannot forgive him easily. Please understand."
"Yes I know."
Takasago Makoto glanced at his brother again: "Bim, I'm sorry, there is nothing I can do to save you."
"It's okay, brother." Bim was not afraid at all: "At least, I can admit that I am your brother now, and I have no regrets."
"Why did you steal the gold? Why!" Perhaps Takasago Makoto knew too well that Bim would die this time. His emotions suddenly lost control and he cried out.
"Brother, you don't understand." Bim said very calmly: "Sooner or later you will return to Japan. You are an engineer. You can live a life without worries about food and clothing. What about me?
I don’t know anything except my strength, so what do I rely on? When I knew there was gold in the warehouse, I was tempted. I thought, with so much gold, even if I stole a box and made it more beautiful, you wouldn't look into it.
In the future, this box of gold can help me find a wife. I am over forty and I still don’t have a wife. I am not willing to do it. I really am not willing to live like this for the rest of my life. You don't understand, you will never understand. "
Takasago Makoto was speechless.
"Your Excellency Takasago, please calm down." Mizushima Yukihei said: "Please go back and continue to complete your work. We will continue to consider your problem.
As for Bhim, we will temporarily keep him in custody until he is executed. If you want to visit him, you can come to see him anytime, anywhere. "
"I know, I know."
Takasago Makoto was devastated.
He took one last look at Amara and Bim, and then left with some staggering steps.
Amala and Bheem were also taken away.
After a while, Mizushima Yukihei said: "Thanks to you, Mr. Taniguchi, this complicated mystery can be solved."
】
Meng Shaoyuan just smiled.
"What should I do with this box of gold?" Yutaro Doi suddenly asked.
Meng Shaoyuan asked inexplicably: "What gold?"
Mizushima Yukihei and others were startled.
Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "This is not gold, this is stolen goods, and evidence of a crime. Ah, no, it is evidence of a crime that we did not find."
Mizushima Yukihei also smiled: "What should I do with Takasago Makoto?"
"He is guilty of concealing his history and not reporting it." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "But we can hide it for him. Do you think he will take the initiative to talk about this evidence?"
Yutaro Doi and Teruaki Negishi’s eyes lit up.
Meng Shaoyuan smiled inwardly.
This box of gold is the first step to completely drag you down, and there will be a second and third step after that!
…
"I didn't expect it to be such a story."
Li Zhifeng also sighed a little: "Takasago Makoto also fought hard for his brother."
"Yes, it's very touching." Meng Shaoyuan said absently.
"wrong!"
"What's wrong?"
"There is something else you haven't said." Li Zhifeng said suspiciously, "Don't hide it from me. Every time you talk like this, there must be some secret you haven't told us."
"Really? Am I this kind of person?" Meng Shaoyuan scratched his head.
Li Zhifeng nodded solemnly:
"yes!"
That's who you are.
You know more than you let on.
"You have wronged me so much, hey."
Meng Shaoyuan was a little helpless:
"Li Zhifeng, look at me carefully up and down, left and right, do you think I am really a fool?"
