Speaking of which, I don't blame Wang Manchun for being so respectful. Eiichi Iwai's status is indeed high. The deputy consul general of the Shanghai Consulate already has a lot of power. At the same time, he is also the chief of the Iwai Mansion of the spy agency. He controls the funds for the activities of the Japanese army and the puppet government spy organizations, and has the power to manipulate and interfere with the Japanese and puppet spy organizations. Although the consulate belongs to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the super high school belongs to the Ministry of Interior, there is no direct affiliation. But in terms of level, it is higher than the special higher education courses.
To a certain extent, Wang Manchun is now considered a spy of the puppet government. She has just been transferred to the special high school. In fact, she is also under the control of Eiichi Iwai.
However, when you are carrying someone on your back, you are still so respectful. That is true recognition in your heart, which is still too much.
Wang Yan shook his head and smiled, and said: "Didn't I tell you? I have some business dealings with him, and it was introduced by Omura Akihiro. We have been working together for a month, but I haven't met him yet, maybe he is too You want to know who is making money for him. As for what you said about absorbing me into the Special Investigation Agency, that's impossible. The worst thing is to tell him the information I told you again. Don't worry, don't be so nervous. If I wanted to join the Japanese, I would have joined them long ago, and it has nothing to do with their status."
He really didn't lie. He had previously proposed to Omura Akira to take them into business and asked for a detailed list of participants, including Eiichi Iwai. The business has just started, and the Japanese are indeed more cooperative. The products have all been replaced with Western packaging. As for whether the profits then will go into the pockets of these small Japanese, or whether they will use their own pockets to supplement military expenditures for their emperor, it is unknown.
Wang Manchun sighed: "You are too precious about your life, otherwise your achievements will not stop here and you will definitely achieve greater things."
"As I said again, what's the use of having great achievements but living to enjoy them? Now I'm going to go out with a big man on the streets every day. If I really defect to the Japanese, I'll go out with a company of men. I'm even afraid of being killed. I'm scared and cautious, just to achieve something? Why bother. You do this all the time, it tastes pretty good."
Looking at what Wang Yan put on the plate, Wang Manchun shook his head speechlessly: "Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat..."
The two of them just hid in the corner, talking to each other without saying a word. Apart from dealing with some ignorant people who came over to get close to them, Wang Yan was busy eating and enjoying himself.
Although it is a cold meal, the barbecued meats and pastries were all freshly prepared not long ago, and the master chefs are of very high standard. Hosted by the Japanese Consulate, the reception was attended by high-level officials from both the Japanese military and political parties, as well as government officials and Chinese celebrities from Shanghai. How could the food and drink of these people be so bad? Wang Yan was talking about this crap, but it actually felt good when he ate it.
After a while, someone stood on the stage where the performance was taking place. The music stopped and everyone looked there subconsciously, and then the person started speaking into the microphone.
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend this reception. I am the consulate..."
This is a high-level consulate official, but today there are many military and political officials, so this person cannot be ranked, so he comes out to do the job of host.
He didn't say anything special, just some normal words. He briefly introduced why the reception was held and introduced the important people present. Then, amidst the warm applause of a group of Japanese and Chinese women, the consul general of the consulate came to the stage to speak, and then it was an army lieutenant general who had just returned from the Xuzhou battlefield to speak. There is nothing serious to say, it is nothing more than to show the strength of the Japanese, to make those traitors firm their determination, and to let those with ambiguous attitudes like Wang Yan make an early choice. The rest is daily deception, describing their great career and so on.
The main thing is to scare people, and then win over them to show their welcoming attitude. The rhetoric of this kind of speech is useless, and it mainly relies on various one-on-one conversations afterwards.
Wang Yan can't do the toasting or the table-turning, especially when the enemy is strong and I am weak. Regardless of whether anyone sees it or not, face-saving skills must be achieved. So he reluctantly stopped talking, stood at the outermost edge, and clapped his hands with a smile.
He wanted to hide among the crowd
There is no action, but it is a pity that little Japan is too short, rarely more than 1.8 meters. The height of the Chinese people in the field is not bad, but most of them are more than 1.7 meters. In particular, there are very few young Chinese people present. They are basically in their forties or fifties and have begun to shrink. He is under thirty years old, and his father has been modifying his body. His skin is not bad, and he still looks young even though he is still young. If not for his extraordinary bearing, he would be no different from the young students shouting slogans on the university campus.
Therefore, he is still a relatively outstanding player here, and it is impossible not to applaud or laugh.
Fortunately, Little Japan didn't talk too much. After talking for less than twenty minutes, everyone drank a glass of victory wine for the co-prosperity of the Japanese Empire in East Asia, which officially started the reception. People began to disperse, some were dancing in the field, some were looking for people to build relationships with, and some Japanese police officers were led by their subordinates to chat with the Chinese one by one.
It was under such circumstances that Omura Akihiro introduced a short and stocky man with a square head and square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a short beard, shiny short hair on his square head combed back, wearing a suit and leather shoes. The man came over.
Without Omura Akihiro saying anything, Wang Yan went up to the man and stretched out his hand: "I guess you must be Mr. Iwai, whom I have admired for a long time."
Eiichi Iwai nodded with a smile, stretched out his hand and shook Wang Yan's hand firmly: "Wang Sang, I have heard about you for a long time. When I saw you today, you are really extraordinary. The things we have here are quite to your liking. ?」
While speaking, he glanced at Wang Manchun, who was smiling politely, and the latter left wisely.
Wang Yan smiled and nodded: "Everything prepared by the consulate is delicious. I'm not picky about food. I like to eat as long as it's delicious. There's nothing that doesn't suit my taste."
Iwai Eiichi laughed, took a plate, picked up something and ate with Wang Yan: "Everyone was socializing in the field, but Wang Sang was enjoying the food. This aloof mentality is really enviable. .”
"You are joking. It's not that Wang is aloof, but that what they want is different from what they want. You should know that what they want is to have greater power and earn more wealth, while what Wang wants is comfort. You must live in submission. Wang is indispensable for the spirit of taking risks, but Wang will definitely not do anything that would lead to death."
"Wang Sang is a man of great wisdom. I understand it completely, and I have no intention of forcing you to join us. Today I am here to meet you. After all, we are partners and we must know each other, don't you think? "
"Of course. Speaking of cooperation, I would also like to thank Mr. Iwai and other Japanese friends for their trust in entrusting me with such a large batch of goods. Don't worry, Mr. Iwai, nothing will go wrong. In one month, I can divide the accounts. In addition, I heard Mr. Omura say before that you prefer Chinese antiquities. I happen to have two blue and white vases from the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty. I will give them to Mr. Omura and he will pass them on to you. "
Apart from the resources on the ground, antiques are the most popular items that China can plunder. Many arty little Japanese who claim to be experts in China like to collect.
"That's great. Thank you Wang Sang for the gift." Hide Iwai nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "Wang Sang likes beauties. I also know the woman just now. She was arranged by Minamida Yoko from the Special High School Course. I also have beauties here. , she is still a pure Japanese girl, I can introduce you to her, and if it’s suitable, you can date each other, how about it?”
Wang Yan shook his head and said: "Thank you Mr. Iwai for your kindness, but let's forget it. I was also blinded by beauty, and I was negligent for a while, so it's hard to get rid of her. We don't need this between us. Don't we just do business once?" With hundreds of thousands of dollars, why not have a closer relationship with a woman? Wang is greedy for money first, and then he is lustful. If there is no money to establish a career, how can a beauty enjoy it? Wang can still handle these things, so don’t bother Iwai Thank you for your trouble, sir."
Eiichi Iwai didn't care about Wang Yan's rejection. He shook his head and smiled, then asked, "I wonder what Wang Sang thinks of the current war between China and Japan?"
Wang Yan thought for a moment and did not answer the question. Instead, he asked: "I wonder what Mr. Iwai thinks of the protracted war talk that came out from the Red Party last month?"
"Hahaha..." Yan
Jing Yingyi raised his head and laughed, very confident: "What you said makes sense, and it is right in many places. Judging from the current war situation, it is not easy to destroy your National Government in a short time. Yes, the war is indeed developing in a protracted direction, but I say that the final victory must belong to the Japanese Empire. We have millions of warriors going out and winning one victory after another on the battlefield, from Northeast to Shanghai, to Xuzhou, and now In Wuhan, no one can stop the conquest of the samurai of the Japanese Empire.
And Wang Sang, look at your compatriots in the field. They are all the elites among you Chinese people. They control the wealth and the right to speak. This is what you see, and what you can't see, our empire's agents are contacting people who aspire to the glory of the Japanese Empire. They are wise men and warriors, Wang Sang. They are more courageous than you. As you said, they pursue higher authority and more wealth. Maybe many people are not as high as you, but there are always those who are stronger. your.
These people do not lack power or money, but they are still striving for higher goals. Aren't they afraid of death? I tell you why. Because there is an old saying in China that tells people to leave their names when they pass by, and to leave their voices when geese pass by. They have a higher pursuit, even if they pay for it with their lives. At this point, Wang Sang, I want to criticize you, you are a coward. "
Judging from the war situation, Eiichi Iwai's self-confidence is completely correct. Because the strategic purpose of the Japanese troops entering Wuhan was to capture Hankou and Guangzhou, control key locations, and force China to surrender. It was precisely with the intention of completing their efforts in one battle. For this reason, they mobilized most of their forces to fight this battle, and they did it in the spirit of independence. Of course, the outcome is doomed. Even if the Battle of Wuhan fails, China will not give up its determination to fight Japan to the end just because of the gains and losses of one city and one place.
However, Wang Yan's focus was not on this aspect, but on the news revealed in Eiichi Iwai's words.
Iwai Eiichi said that it is normal for agents to contact people from the Communist Party of China and elites in Kuomintang-controlled areas. However, he said that among these people, the status was higher than that of Wang Yan, which was very important. There may be many people with a higher status than Wang Yan, but if someone of Eiichi Iwai's level can give great confidence, and they all look down on Wang Yan, then their status is not even a little higher than Wang Yan. .
Without bragging, although Wang Yan is a gangster leader, as far as the situation in Shanghai is concerned, his position makes his status three points higher. Let's not talk about it from afar, just talk about the men and women in the field. None of them can do it better than him, although they are all capable. Some are even figures from the Tongmenghui era, but as of now, no one can do it. Moreover, he himself does business with the two parties and has compiled a network of relationships, which will further increase his status.
So when Iwai Hide is brought up, people of Wang Yan's level who look down on him are not to mention only a handful among the police, but they can also be investigated. Combining this with the history that only Wang Yan knows, then this person with a very high status is ready to be revealed.
Who else could it be besides Wang Zhaoming?
Of course, the reverse also makes sense. Even if Wang Yan had an innate knowledge that Wang Zhaoming would rebel, there would be no problem if he overreacted and overinterpreted Iwai Eiichi's words. Moreover, Eiichi Iwai was indeed involved in helping Wang Zhaoming defect.
But no matter what, the matter of Wang Zhaoming was brought up.
In his early years, Wang Zhaoming did not advocate war with Japan. At that time, the Japanese paid attention to him, and they should have been trying to win over Wang Zhaoming for a long time. And Wang Zhaoming's rebellion did pour cold water on China's anti-Japanese war.
Because Wang Zhaoming is not an ordinary person. He once competed with the bald man for supremacy. Although he lost and ran away, he later established the Guangzhou government to fight against the bald man. Later, due to various reasons, they merged into one family, but his status as second brother was still there. It's just because of his poor political skills that he couldn't handle being bald, so he was gradually raised up.
As the number two figure in the Communist Party, that is, the number two figure in China today, Wang Zhaoming rebelled and defected to the Japanese. The impact was undoubtedly huge. He made a very bad start and also caused those below to fight. The person breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Zhaoming and his pseudo-Nanjing Nationalist Government played an active role in cooperating with Japan's aggressive activities in China. In military terms, instigating rebellion
Millions of Communists, especially miscellaneous troops, organized puppet troops and carried out many rural clearings. Economically, the puppet government assisted the Japanese army in plundering the occupied areas. In terms of ideological education, the concept of peace with Japan was promoted in schools, beautifying Japanese aggression, and ideologically weakening the anti-Japanese sentiments of the people. In addition, recognizing Japanese puppet governments such as Manchukuo and King De's Mongolian-Xinjiang United Autonomous Government is an act of outright separatism.
It was these incidents one after another that made Wang Zhaoming undoubtedly the biggest man-woman in China's five thousand years. If he really left his name, Qin Hui would have to make room for him.
With this thought in his mind, Wang Yan accepted the criticism humbly and nodded in agreement, saying, "I can't help it. I've been careful since I was a child, and I'm lucky to say that I haven't encountered anything big in my life." There are not as many ups and downs as Mr. Iwai has experienced. The more this happens, the more careful I should be. Mr. Iwai, Mr. Omura should have told you my attitude. I mean nothing will change about this. But This does not affect our cooperation, and from now on, I will tell you what I told Section Chief Minamida. What do you think, Mr. Iwai?"
Eiichi Iwai nodded with a smile: "Wang Sang, you don't have to be nervous. I said I won't force you. Although you are afraid of death, how many people in this world are not afraid of death? I understand very well and appreciate your straightforwardness." Go straight and do what you say. The Japanese Empire will never treat friendly friends badly, and we are now cooperative partners. For me personally, you are also my friend. We should communicate more in the future to enhance friendship. Yes, Wang Sang."
"Yes, Mr. Iwai, you are right, we should communicate more."
"Then it's settled. If there is any gathering in the future, I will let someone notify you in advance. Don't shirk it. In the words of you Chinese, I will be very embarrassed."
"Mr. Iwai is joking. It's Wang's honor that a person like you is willing to condescend to a small role like me. How can I shirk it?"
"Okay, Wang Sang, that's it. We'll talk about it later. There are still many people who want me to meet them. I'm sorry."
"Please!"
Watching Eiichi Iwai leave, Wang Yan continued to eat and drink. The purpose of Eiichi Iwai is actually the same as that of Yoko Minamida. They are to get in touch first and see real people. They all think that they have a unique set of people-viewing skills and a pair of piercing eyes that no one can escape. This is the mysterious self-confidence of the superiors. In other words, I am used to being praised. Of course, it does not rule out that they do have real abilities and exquisite minds, otherwise they would not be able to rise to high positions.
At present, it seems that his situation is not a problem. The Japanese are relatively patient with him. Of course, that is also his position. The foreigners behind him have provided some help, which he has earned himself, so he is considered safe. However, the situation is changing rapidly, and it is difficult to say what will happen in the future. It is better to take it one step at a time.
At this time, Wang Manchun also came over and introduced his uncle Wang Furui with his arms around him.
Of course Wang Yan responded with a smile and talked about future cooperation. Wang Yan didn't like to talk to Wang Furui very much. This guy is going to die sooner or later, and he's still a man, why bother with him? However, for Wang Manchun's sake, there was indeed some small cooperation. Qinglian Bank will lend them a sum of money, and in the future, part of the Wang family's capital turnover business will be placed in Qinglian, which is equivalent to a simple contact first.
Are you pretending? Wang Yan is very good at it.
Seeing Wang Furui leave with satisfaction, Wang Yan said with a smile: "How about it, is it enough to give you face?"
"Don't you dare deny it." Wang Manchun snorted, "My uncle loves me the most, you can't cheat him."
"Your Wang family has a big business, so there is no need to get involved with me. But who told you to speak? I don't have many advantages. The most outstanding thing is that I am good to women. Don't worry, you are cheating. No one can cheat you."
"That's pretty much it. What did Mr. Iwai tell you?"
"It's similar to your Section Chief Nantian.
It was just a test to see if I was really determined not to surrender, and I promised him two antiques from the Ming Dynasty to try to flirt with him. Do you know what Yoko Minami likes? Give him something as well, otherwise I'll feel bad. "
Wang Manchun shook his head in a funny way, but still thought about it seriously: "I really haven't found out what Section Chief Nantian likes. She is very competitive and never wants to be criticized for her identity as a woman. Maybe you can seek refuge with her. She will be happy."
"Then it's better to give money. Giving money is the most practical thing. I paid two hundred thousand dollars for the previous incident. Do you know how much Minami Yoko got?"
"I don't know. How could you tell me such a thing?"
Wang Yan nodded and thought for a moment: "When I get back, I will write a check for fifty thousand US dollars. You can hand it over to her for me tomorrow. It's my wish."
Wang Manchun frowned and said, "Isn't that too much? You've been making a lot of moves lately, and you've been spending money like water, so you should save some. I think you might as well get some gold bars. It's not only nice, but you can also save a lot."
"Why, are you starting to be my housekeeper?"
"Who cares about you?" Wang Manchun punched Wang Yan angrily, the blush on his cheeks showing the shyness of a young girl.
Even if this is really Wang Manchun's true performance, Wang Yan absolutely doesn't believe it. It's just a pink skull, and he doesn't care. Women cannot mess with his Taoist heart.
He said with a smile: "Money is easy to come by, but antiques are hard to find. Although Minami Yoko's status cannot be compared with Iwai Eiichi, he is still the section chief of the Shanghai Special High School. It is inappropriate to give him less. This is all about buying Life money can be too much, but never less."
Looking like he was afraid of death again, Wang Manchun was too lazy to talk to Wang Yan, turned around and started eating. She didn't have anyone she wanted to flatter. When she came today, it was only Wang Yan who came. She was ordered to see who Wang Yan had contacted and what he had said. Who would have thought that Wang Yan ignored those people and only cared about eating and drinking. Of course she wouldn't move. Besides, she would definitely have to go with Wang Yan in the evening. It would be very tiring. If she didn't eat more, it wouldn't be easy to deal with it...
What is Wang Yan's status? Even if he hides for a while, someone will always come to find him. For example, Zhang Xiaolin's original subordinates, businessmen with many concession industries or whose unions were controlled by the Youth Gang, all had to come and support Wang Yan.
It was not until after seven o'clock in the evening that Wang Yan left with Wang Manchun, and Qi Si was sent to the garden house to be happy...
At around twelve o'clock, the battle ended and the battlefield was cleaned. When Wang Manchun arrived, she was breathing evenly and fell into a deep sleep. Wang Yan tapped her acupuncture points to make her sleep even more deeply. He got up and went to the attic. superior.
After poking open the tile on the roof, Wang Yan took out the radio from the space and debugged it, and then began to transmit the radio waves towards Wuhan.
Even though it was already midnight, the handsome man who came to Wuhan to cooperate with the police in launching the Wuhan defense battle still turned on his lights and was dealing with work that seemed to have no end.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and after receiving permission, the telecommunications worker who was always with him walked in. His expression was a little panicked, and he held the translated message in his slightly trembling hands: "Report to the chief, Pei Min has called!"
The handsome man frowned, because this person had been tested, otherwise he would not have been able to come to him and be able to copy and translate the messages sent by Pei Min. Something big must have happened to make him so rude.
This was what he was thinking about in a split second. He had already received the message and read it intently.
"Today, the consulate withdrew to Shanghai to recuperate for the Xuzhou battlefield. The enemy... troops celebrated their victory and held a cocktail party. I was invited to go. During the meeting, Iwai Eiichi tested me... I noticed that Japan and Japan were wooing the top leaders of the ***. , he revealed that this person's status is much higher than mine and cannot be compared to him...After analysis, I think Wang Zhaoming may rebel, so be careful!"
The telegram was very long and basically explained the entire incident and the analysis process. Most people send short messages because the longer the time, the greater the risk of exposure, so it is as short as possible.
It is not necessary to have accurate information to engage in intelligence. After all, there are many people who can get such accurate information.
Several people? More importantly, it is necessary to summarize the chaotic information, extract useful information, and then use other information to support it. Finally, the authenticity can be determined through repeated confirmation from multiple aspects.
And this matter is too important, it can be false, but if it is true, the consequences cannot be borne. So he can't just talk about the results, he has to say it clearly so that people know the specific process. And Wang Yan is not afraid of being exposed. It only requires 1,800 words, very quickly.
He didn't always stay in the same position when sending reports. He would always shoot in different places and run in all directions. The last time he sent a report on Jingdong Road was when he moved. It's been almost three months and it's very safe.
After reading the telegram, the handsome man let out a long breath: "Send power to Chongqing and send someone to pay close attention to Wang Zhaoming's movements. Also copy this telegram to Yan'an, remove the signature, and send it in my name."
"yes!"
The handsome man read the telegram again, put it on the table, took a sip of water, sighed, and looked out the window at the dark night sky...
From time to time, the sound of rumbling gunfire could be heard outside. Far away in the dark night, when the fire snake loomed, there were countless fearless warriors with ferocious faces, who did not know the way forward, and fought to the death to protect their home and country.
The broadsword was struck at the heads of the devils...
