Meng Shaoyuan rarely went to Fujikura Seijiro's office.
Even after Fujikura Seijiro became chief of staff, Meng Shaoyuan only paid a courtesy visit.
Therefore, when "Shibu Taniguchi" appeared in front of him, Fujikura Seijiro was a little surprised.
He hesitated for a moment and then said:
"It's Mr. Taniguchi, why are you here in such a free time?"
Both men have the same military rank, center left.
But it is obvious that "Shibu Taniguchi" has higher qualifications, power and status than him in Manila.
"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, I am here to report to you."
Meng Shaoyuan carried a briefcase with him: "You are the chief of staff and are responsible for Manila's defense. I have been waiting for you to come to inspect the work and hand over the relevant documents to you for review, but I never waited."
Fujikura Seijiro was a little embarrassed.
Yes, these are the responsibilities of the Chief of Staff.
However, Fujikura Seijiro really did not fulfill his responsibilities.
All his attention was on the person in front of him.
"I, I just took office and there are too many things to do."
Fujikura Seijiro concealed it and said, "Originally, I was going to go to your place tomorrow."
"I know the chief of staff is busy at work." Meng Shaoyuan said empathetically, "So I brought all the information."
He placed the briefcase in front of Seijiro Fujikura: "This is the entire defense map of our security forces and secret services in Manila, as well as all the firepower placement points. Please take a look at it, Chief of Staff."
Fujikura Seijiro opened his briefcase, took out the documents inside, and read them page by page.
Even if he was biased against the other party, Fujikura Seijiro had to admit that Shibu Taniguchi's ability at work was impeccable.
All defense points and firepower distribution are as perfect as possible.
Even if the U.S. military enters Manila, it will inevitably face fierce street fighting.
"Very good, Mr. Taniguchi." Fujikura Seijiro said with satisfaction: "I will go to the scene for further verification based on the information you provided."
"I will also cooperate fully." Meng Shaoyuan had no intention of leaving: "Chief of Staff, what do you think of me?"
"What do you mean?" Fujikura Seijiro's eyes narrowed.
Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Recently, I always find that someone is following me. Ah, I am the director of the secret service in Manila, and I am quite sensitive in this regard.
Before, I thought those people were members of the resistance, but I found out I was wrong. They all came from the wounded soldiers who had been stranded in Manila, as well as some from the Marine Corps. "
Having said this, he glanced at Seijiro Fujikura and said meaningfully: "If the Chief of Staff has anything you need to know or is curious about me, you can ask me in person. There is no need to do so.
I have worked for the Mountain Lily Society and the secret service, so I have some experience in this area. Chief of Staff, I hope we can be honest and honest with each other. "
"Okay, since Mr. Taniguchi said so." At this point, Fujikura Seijiro no longer avoided anything: "Since arriving in Manila, there are really many things that are difficult for me to understand.
The former head of the Secret Service in Manila, Naoto Matsujo, and the former commander of the military police, Urayo Ishigami, rebelled one after another. This is the most difficult thing for me to understand. Before Mr. Taniguchi came, they had never been discovered.
But since Mr. Taniguchi appeared in Manila, he first uncovered their plan to steal gold, and then discovered that they were actually American spies. It is really not easy for Mr. Taniguchi to do this in a short period of time. "
He had been observing Shibu Taniguchi.
He found that when he said these words, the other party felt a little unnatural.
Meng Shaoyuan coughed a few times and said, "Actually, to be precise, I first discovered that they were stealing gold, and then I discovered other problems with them."
Is this to cover up some kind of embarrassment?
Fujikura Seijiro continued to ask: "I admit that what Mr. Taniguchi said is reasonable, but just yesterday, I also received a few gold bars, ten to be precise.
I have inquired, and this is what Mr. Taniguchi gave to the Commander. I am also very curious, where did Mr. Taniguchi get this gold?
This reminds me of Mr. Taniguchi’s former identity as an inspector of the Yamayuri Association. Although I don’t know what the specific things the Yamayuri Association is hiding, is there a possibility that there is gold among these things? "
He noticed that Shibuya Taniguchi's face became ugly: "There is nothing to hide. In fact, I can also guess that there is a large amount of gold in the supplies that Yamayuri Association is responsible for. Otherwise, Naoto Matsujo and Urayo Ishigami would not take the risk." Gold was stolen.
After all, most people's determination is limited in front of gold, including Mr. Taniguchi of course.
I am not responsible for the gold, so how much there is has nothing to do with me. It just occurred to me that since you can start with the theft of gold and investigate Naoto Matsujo and Urayo Ishigami, can I also launch some special investigations? "
Meng Shaoyuan's face showed anger: "Chief of Staff, what do you mean?"
"Please calm down, Mr. Taniguchi." Fujikura Seijiro said calmly: "I just said to investigate, not to investigate a certain person. Can we continue talking?"
"I'm happy to listen." Meng Shaoyuan said reluctantly.
Fujikura Seijiro then continued: "Some things, in my opinion, are very coincidental. For example, not long after the incident with the secret service and the gendarmerie, the security force also had an incident.
I don’t want to hide anything, Taniguchi-dono. I also raised my doubts about this to the Commander-in-Chief. The same thing happens continuously, and the profiteer is the same person, that is you, Shibu Taniguchi! "
"Chief of Staff, you have gone too far!" Meng Shaoyuan stood up with a bang: "In order to prove my innocence, I am willing to provide you with the funds to investigate me. In the eyes of others, I look stupid, but I think it's all worth it.
But I didn't expect that in your eyes, I am such a person. Since arriving in Manila, I have done my best and even gave up the chance to leave the city! "
"Ah, this is also what interests me." Fujikura Seijiro said calmly: "If a person has a special mission, how can he leave before the mission is completed?"
"idiot!"
Meng Shaoyuan cursed angrily: "No one can frame me like this. Fujikura, I can solemnly tell you that I retain my anger against your actions and the right to fight back!"
You can continue to investigate me, but I can also investigate you, and I swear I will expose you to the sun! "
