"Section Chief Akiyama, I want to take a leave?"
"Excuse me for leave. What are you doing on leave?" Akiyama Nosuke raised his head and asked Zhou Sen in confusion.
"I want to go to No. 3 Yiyuan Road in the afternoon." Zhou Sen explained the reason for taking leave.
"No. 3 Yiyuan Road, where are you going and what are you doing..." Akiyama Nosuke suddenly realized, what kind of place is No. 3 Yiyuan Road? They used to call it "Hajime". (I couldn’t find the abbreviation or code name. Let’s use this name for now. If anyone knows about it, please let me know.)
"My subordinates have dual identities. As you know, Section Chief Akiyama, the 'external transfer review' of me by the Security Bureau has also ended. I have to go there to decide whether to abandon or stay. Give me a clear decision." It’s an argument, isn’t it?”
"Didn't Mr. Shibuya tell you this before he left?"
"As you know, I can't ask more questions unless Teacher Shibuya tells me." Zhou Sen smiled and explained.
"Okay, I approved this fake, but do you know who to look for when you get there?" Akiyama Nosuke asked.
"I don't know, I don't know anyone over there, but as long as I go there, there should be someone to welcome them, right?" Zhou Sen said.

"In this way, you will definitely not be able to see General Qin Yan, and he may not have time to see you, but Deputy Director Suzuki, who is responsible for specific affairs, can try to ask for a meeting. I will give you a note, which will save you the trouble. They make things difficult," Akiyama Nosuke said.
"Then thank you, Chief Akiyama."
"Thank you, you and I are in the same boat." Akiyama Nosuke said, "But Mr. Shibuya is at a low ebb right now, so we all need to keep a low profile and don't cause trouble for him."
"Understood." Zhou Sen could hear the meaning behind Akiyama Nosuke's words. Shibuya Saburo's status has not yet been determined, and the superiors' use and weighing of him are still in the game.
But as far as Zhou Sen knows, Shibuya Saburo will not be idle. He will be transferred to Xinjing to serve as the director of the Police Department. It is a horizontal transfer in name, but the authority is much greater. Of course, in this position, he will be retiring. Want more.
But Zhou Sen knew better that Shibuya Saburo was likely to become the leader of the entire Puppet Manchukuo military police force. Such a big "big tree" would bring him a lot of help. Of course, it would also give him a lot of help. People's misunderstanding about him is getting deeper and deeper.
There is a note from Akiyama Nosuke.
Zhou Sen simply did not eat in the police station cafeteria at noon. He called Anna out and treated her to a sumptuous Western meal in the south restaurant of the Madier Hotel.
You should not be stingy when it comes to expressing your thanks and expressions. Anna, this woman, will still be of value in the future.
"Anna, our ice city has no foundation. I only have one Wu En under my command. He has no other strengths except for his strength. You and I are not Japanese. If we want to get away with the Japanese, we have to work side by side." , keep watch and help each other." Zhou Sen wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth and put down his napkin.
"I know that Teacher Shibuya is not here, and Hunter and the others are not around. It is difficult for the two of us to fight against these people. Teacher Shibuya probably hopes that we will keep a low profile for the time being and not cause trouble for him." Anna said.
"We have to have our own team, otherwise, we will be marginalized or even sacrificed by them in the future."
"Team, you mean, we develop our own people?" Anna was surprised.
"Yes, there must be at least a few people who can be used. Otherwise, how can we keep what Shibuya-sensei left behind just the two of us?" Zhou Sen said.
"This is not an easy thing. The most difficult thing in our line of work is to trust people." Anna said.
"What we want is someone who can help us, not someone who can entrust us with secrets, understand." Zhou Sen said.
"Then this is easy to handle. As long as you have money, you can find as many people as you want to do things for you." Anna said.
"money is not a problem."
"That will be much easier to handle." Anna smiled. She didn't have that big ambition, but she still had to protect herself, right?
…
Instructing Wu En to park the car a little further away, Zhou Sen and Anna got off the car and walked towards the gate of No. 3 Yiyuan Road.
After showing the certificate.
The Japanese soldiers at the door saluted them with a military salute, opened the door and let them in.
Entering the gate, there is a two-story European-style building with formulas on the north and south. There are also Japanese soldiers patrolling with wolf dogs in the yard.
It was heavily guarded and filled with the smell of murder and iron-bloodedness.
No wonder the people of Bingcheng looked down upon this place and regarded it as a tiger's den and a wolf's den.
It was Zhou Sen's first time here and he was not very familiar with the layout inside. Fortunately, Anna had been here before and had already given him a general introduction to the situation inside.
Of course, you are not allowed to wander around here, otherwise you may be charged with "peeping at secrets" and imprisoned, and you will not be able to find a place to reason with you.
Zhou Sen had Akiyama Nosuke's note in his hand, so he naturally asked directly to see the deputy director of the agency, Suzuki Takeo.
Suzuki Takeo didn't just meet him in person. They were arranged to wait in a small conference room, and an orderly brought hot tea.
The wait was more than half an hour.
Zhou Sen was not impatient at all. He had already been mentally prepared. Even if he didn't see anyone today, he wouldn't be surprised.
But Anna couldn't sit still anymore, stood up, walked back and forth in front of Zhou Sen twice and then sat back down.
After waiting for almost ten minutes, a Japanese second lieutenant came in: "Deputy Director Suzuki asked Mr. Zhou Sen to go to his office."
Zhou Sen quickly bent down slightly and agreed.
"What about me?" Anna asked.
"Miss Anna, please wait a moment." The second lieutenant said politely.
Zhou Sen gave Anna a "be patient" look and followed the Japanese second lieutenant to Suzuki Takeo's office.
After knocking on the door and getting permission from the person inside, the Japanese second lieutenant opened the door and invited Zhou Sen in, but he himself stood at the door without moving.
Zhou Sen adjusted his clothes a little, then walked in with his head held high, and behind him, the office door was gently closed.
The Japanese military has always had low-ranking deputies. That is to say, if the chief officer is a major general, then his deputy may only be a junior left, which is several levels different.
The deputy is really an auxiliary job, equivalent to a staff officer or doing odd jobs.
But when Zhou Sen came in, he saw a Japanese Army Zuo who looked to be about forty years old. Above him was a Major General.
Suzuki Takeo, the deputy of the agency, should have some real power, and Qin Yanzaburo also serves as the chief of the second section of the Kwantung Army Staff Department. His job is much more than the chief of the Ice City secret service.
Suzuki Takeo should be the actual person in charge of the Ice City secret service. Of course, the person in charge is Qin Yanzaburo.
The Chinese character face has no beard under the chin, and the facial features look softer, without the discrete and uncoordinated feeling of the Japanese.
Just looking at his appearance, Zhou Sen had the illusion that he was one of his own compatriots.
"Zhou Sen-kun, I have heard your name a long time ago. Please sit down." Suzuki Takeo stood up first and walked over, greeting Zhou Sen.
"Hello, Deputy Director Suzuki!" Zhou Sen quickly put his legs together and bowed.
"Please sit down." Suzuki Yixiong asked Zhou Sen to sit down on the sofa in the reception area and made tea himself.
"Jun Zhou Sen, try the tea I brewed!"
With a "flattered" expression on his face, Zhou Sen quickly reached out to take the tea cup from Suzuki Takeo's hand, took a sip of the tea soup, then put it down and said, "It leaves a fragrance in your mouth, it's a good tea."
"Haha..." Suzuki Takeo laughed, "When Mr. Zhou Sen is free, please come to my place for tea more often in the future."
"Thank you, Mr. Suzuki..." Zhou Sen quickly stood up and expressed his thanks again, but he was also confused. Suzuki Takeo's friendly attitude towards him made him feel incredible, as if he was falling into "clouds".
"Zhou Sen-kun, why did you come to see me today?" Suzuki Takeo finally adjusted the channel to the topic.
"Your Excellency, Deputy Chief Suzuki, I am also a staff member of the Ice City Secret Service. I am affiliated with the intelligence squad. I was originally under the direct leadership of Chief Shibuya of the Ice City Police Department. After Chief Shibuya was transferred to Xinjing, I didn't know that I was still a member of the intelligence team. I am no longer a subordinate of the Bingcheng secret service. If so, which department do I belong to and who should I be responsible to? If not, please give me an accurate written answer so that I can put myself in the right position. Know who you are.”
"We have also discussed your identity, but the 'external transfer review' for you was not over at that time, so we put it on hold for now, but now that your 'review' has passed, your identity should be restored. Give you more important power." Suzuki Takeo said.
"Thank you, Mr. Suzuki!"
"Zhou Sen-kun, do you like smoking?" Suzuki Takeo suddenly asked.
Zhou Sen frowned, what was wrong with Suzuki Takeo? His attitude towards him was different from the beginning, and now he asked an inexplicable question.
"Occasionally."
"Oh, I have Harden Gate and Three Fortresses here. Which one do you like?" Suzuki Takeo continued to ask.
"These two kinds of smoke are hard to buy in Bingcheng. I usually smoke Shuangfu and Aurora." Zhou Sen replied cautiously.
"Haha, try my cigarette." Suzuki Takeo chuckled, got up to get a pack of cigarettes, walked over, tore open the tin seal, took out a cigarette, and handed it to Zhou Sen.
Zhou Sen quickly stretched out his hands to take it, and then glanced at the matches on the coffee table. He quickly reached for them, took out one, lit it, and lit it for Suzuki Yixiong first, and then for himself.
"How is it? How does it taste?" Takeo Suzuki asked with a smile.
"The taste is much softer than Shuangfu, and the texture is also good." Zhou Sen said that if his past life is included, he is also an old smoker, and he can naturally identify the taste of different brands of cigarettes.
"I knew you liked Zhou Sen-kun right away. I just have two here. You can take them back and smoke them." Suzuki Takeo took out two Hardman cigarettes from the cabinet in the office and handed them to Zhou Sen.
Zhou Sen was stunned. Subordinates always gave gifts to superiors. How could a superior give gifts to subordinates? This person was still Japanese.
"Take it, but don't let outsiders know, otherwise I won't be able to keep these cartons of cigarettes that I managed to get." Suzuki Yixiong gave Zhou Sen a blow.
"Sir Suzuki, this is my first time meeting you. Why do you want to give me something?" Zhou Sen asked directly.
"My father and I are friends." Suzuki Takeo smiled slightly.
"Ah..." Zhou Sen was stunned. "Your father" is his father, but his biological father himself doesn't know, so he only has his adoptive father Anthony.
The deputy director of the Ice City Secret Service is friends with Anthony's father. This sounds a bit unreal no matter how much it sounds.
"So, according to seniority, you should call me Uncle Suzuki." Takeshi Suzuki couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhou Sen's stunned expression.
