The sudden return of "Shibu Taniguchi" was something Fuzhong Jingze did not expect.
But again, this is what excites him.
Fukuzaka Keizawa has spent a lot on Shibuya Taniguchi, and even contributed his wife.
Any investment needs a return.
The same is true for Fuzhong Jingze.
He didn't want his embezzlement of gold to be exposed.
He also hopes that he can sit in this position for a longer time.
And these are absolutely inseparable from Shibu Taniguchi.
So, he carefully prepared a dinner.
He asked his wife Mikoko to stay with Shibuya Taniguchi, constantly saying flattering words and toasting.
Of course, I also tried to get some information from Shibuya Taniguchi's mouth.
How could he hide these thoughts from Meng Shaoyuan?
After drinking for three rounds, Meng Shaoyuan suddenly put down his wine cup and sighed deeply.
"What's wrong, Taniguchi-kun?" Fuzhong Jingze asked hurriedly and with concern: "Did you encounter something troublesome?"
"Not to me, but to the entire empire." Meng Shaoyuan looked worried: "I am very dissatisfied with the results of this verification. There are more or less corruption incidents happening everywhere."
Fuzhong Jingze felt a thump in his heart.
This was the thing he was most afraid of hearing.
Fuzhong Jingze immediately put on a concerned look: "Taniguchi-san, people are always greedy. We know the business we do best in our hearts, and no one can remain unmoved when facing this."
After saying that, he quietly looked at Shibuya Taniguchi and said cautiously: "Taniguchi-kun, how are you going to deal with these situations?"
"This is extremely bad. This is a betrayal of the organization and the empire." Meng Shaoyuan looked serious: "According to regulations, I must report to the organization immediately and be severely punished!"
"I admire Mr. Taniguchi for being loyal to his duties." Fukuzaka Keizawa was thinking quickly in his mind: "However, I don't want to speak for my colleagues. Here, they have paid too much."
As he said that, he glanced at his wife: "Mixiko, Taniguchi-kun and I have some official business to discuss, so you should stay out of the way first."
"Hai."
Mixiko knows when she should be there and when she should leave.
After Mikoko left, Fukuzaka Keizawa continued: "I will be tempted when faced with temptation. Mr. Taniguchi, they may indeed have committed corruption, but for such huge wealth, their personal Behavior is nothing more than a drop in the bucket.
We people are really hard-working. In addition to doing heavy work every day, we also have to face the threat of death. The pressure on us is really great.
Reporting to the country is just a very simple thing for you, but for them, their life may be ruined. Mr. Taniguchi, I dare you to think again. "
He was not speaking for his colleagues, but for himself.
Moreover, he could see that Shibu Taniguchi was definitely not the kind of person who would be unkind.
Otherwise, he would not accept his wife.
Meng Shaoyuan was silent for a while and then said: "Mr. Fuzhong, I have considered what you said, but if I do this, I will also take a very big risk. My future and life will also be destroyed.
Of course, I'm not an unreasonable person, so I will carefully consider how to deal with it. Now, please answer me truthfully, Mr. Fuzhong, what about you, have you done this? "
Fuzhong Jingze did not answer immediately.
He drank all the wine in the wine cup and poured himself another cup.
Meng Shaoyuan did not rush him.
After a short period of time, Fuzhong Jingze finally nodded:
"Yes, Taniguchi-kun, I did the same."
He didn't want to hide it.
He knew that there was no point in concealing it, and it would only increase Shibuya Taniguchi's distaste for him.
Since Taniguchi Shibu asked this, then he must have grasped something.
"I do it for myself." Fuzhong Jingze looked very frank: "From the moment I accepted the order, I took my wife to this damn land and worked day and night.
Like every colleague who works here, I am afraid every day. No one knows when the damn American bomb will fall on our heads.
I also took some gold privately, very little, really very little. You can see it as my greed, or you can see it as some reward for myself.
】
If I had to do it again, I would still do it. We have received orders to be ready to blow up the tunnels and bury these treasures at any time. Since these treasures cannot see the light of day, why can't they be used to some extent?
Taniguchi-kun, I have nothing to hide from you. I have told you everything. How to deal with a villain like me is in your hands! "
He's gambling.
What he was betting on was that Shibuya Taniguchi and himself were actually the same kind of people.
The words he just said were all testing himself.
Because Shibuya Taniguchi didn't say anything to death.
He even left some leeway.
"Mr. Fuzhong, I don't want to kill you."
Sure enough, as soon as Meng Shaoyuan opened his mouth, Fuzhong Jingze felt that he might have made the right bet.
Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "Everyone has selfish motives. The current situation is not good for the empire. I believe you also know it. I can actually understand it if you steal a little gold.
Mr. Fuzhong, you are my friend. For the sake of my friends, I think there are some things I will not do. "
Fuzhong Jingze was overjoyed.
My previous efforts and contributions were not in vain.
He raised the wine cup again:
"Taniguchi-kun, I respect you and thank you for your understanding!"
Meng Shaoyuan had a drink with him, and then asked a question he had asked Takasha Cheng before: "Fuzhong-kun, you have worked hard to think about the future, but how are you going to leave?"
"What?" Fuzhong Jingze was startled, and then said: "What's worth considering? When our mission here is completed, I will take my wife and leave."
Immediately, he seemed to have thought of something: "Taniguchi-kun, please rest assured that even if you return to Japan, you will always be the most distinguished guest of the Fukuzaka family."
He really could have misunderstood.
He thought Shibuya Taniguchi was reluctant to leave his wife.
In this case, why can't I be more generous?
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Fuzhong." Meng Shaoyuan looked lonely: "Maybe you don't know yet, but all routes out of the Philippines have been cut off."
"What?"
Fuzhong Jingze was shocked: "What are you talking about?"
Like Takasago Makoto, he only knew a rough idea of the war situation, and they couldn't figure out the truth at all.
"The route out of the Philippines has been completely cut off." Meng Shaoyuan repeated his words again:
"In other words, we can't leave here no matter by sea or plane!"
