The call was from Okamura, who was in Nanjing at this time. He was able to make a direct call to Nantong, which required not only authority but also luck.
In the areas controlled by Wang Puppet, the postal routes were basically kept open, and telegraphs were no problem, but it really took luck to make a phone call from Nanjing to Nantong.
Okamura said: "Xie Sang, I am Okamura, and Kato Hajime is mine. Please don't embarrass him."
His voice was a little cold, with a commanding tone.
Xie Xuan asked in a deep voice: "Is Kato Hajime your man? I wonder what mission Okamura-kun sent him to Nantong to perform?"
When Ueno Naomi heard the words "Okamura-kun", he immediately walked to Xie Xuan and listened to the voice from the microphone.
Xie Xuan is now the director of Qingxiang in Northern Jiangsu, and also the commander of the security in Northern Jiangsu. Not to mention the king of Northern Jiangsu, at least in Nantong, he is the real boss.
Now Xie Xuan is the leader of the party, government and military in Nantong. Putting aside the Japanese factor, who can do anything to him?
Okamura said somewhat unhappily: "Confidential mission."
When will Japan’s actions be told to the Chinese?
Xie Xuan said calmly: "Do I need to be informed in advance about the secret mission in Nantong, or the secret mission around me?"
Okamura said coldly: "Xie Sang, this is Japan's confidential mission and cannot be told to the Chinese side."
Xie Xuan insisted: "If it's against other people, you don't have to tell me, but you have already attacked the people around me. Are you going to attack me next?"
"Xie Sangbi is so excited. Kato Hajime's action is not against you, it is just a normal surveillance operation for the Secret Service."
Okamura felt that Xie Xuan's attitude was very firm, and Xie Xuan was far away in Nantong. As the saying goes, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. If Xie Xuan did not obey orders, he had no choice but to soften his tone first.
Xie Xuan asked again: "Normal surveillance operation? Why not monitor me, but monitor Ma Tian?"
Okamura explained: "Xie Sang, is there any difference between monitoring you and monitoring Ma Tian? Besides, there are so many beautiful women around you, how can you monitor you? I once asked Naomi Ueno to spy on you, but she didn't agree, so I had to choose It’s crazy.”
Xie Xuan asked: "In that case, can you tell me all your plans now?"
Okamura said: "This matter can only be decided after consulting General Shibayama."
Xie Xuan wanted to speak, but Ueno Naomi pulled his arm and signaled him to stop talking.
Xie Xuan said: "Okay, I will let Hajime Kato leave. In addition, I will arrange a job for Liu Jing at the Qingxiang Office in Northern Jiangsu."
He is also telling Okamura that Hajime Kato can leave, but Liu Jing cannot.
At the same time, Okamura was also tested to see if Liu Jing was a Japanese spy.
Okamura hesitated for a moment and said, "Well... you have to ask Liu Jing for her opinion. As long as she agrees, it's no problem."
Xie Xuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, she will agree."
Liu Jing had just married Ma Tian, and the two were in their honeymoon period. How could she object if Liu Jing was allowed to enter the Qingxiang Office in Northern Jiangsu and become colleagues with Ma Tian?
Ueno Naomi said angrily: "You are getting louder and louder now."
Xie Xuan smiled slightly: "There is no way, the strength lies here."
His identity is different, and the tone of his speech is naturally different.
Xie Xuan has been engaged in spy work in the past, but now he is responsible for clearing the countryside. He has much greater authority and has tens of thousands of troops. If he is still as timid as before, wouldn't it be inconsistent with his character?
Xie Xuan has several identities. Every time he speaks, he will weigh whether it is consistent with his current identity.
Ueno Naomi said: "Be careful in the future, people will monitor you. Don't meet with Hajime Kato later, I will send him away."
She was thinking about Xie Xuan, so that Xie Xuan would not be embarrassed when meeting Kato Hajime. After all, with Okamura supporting Kato Hajime, Xie Xuan could only give in.
Xie Xuan smiled and said: "How can that be done? I captured Kato Hajime, so of course I have to release him. But it's not convenient for you to come forward."
Ueno Naomi blinked and immediately guessed Xie Xuan's thoughts: "Are you planning to do something else?"
"What action can I take? Let him go completely according to Okamura's wishes. Okay, you can go back first."
Naomi Ueno knew that Xie Xuan was not telling the truth, but she still obeyed his wishes and left first.
Now that Hajime Kato knows her identity, she can't help Xie Xuan.
On the contrary, Xie Xuan might be able to get some useful clues from Hajime Kato.
After all, Kato Hajime is Japanese. He is not locked in a cell and has no one to guard him. It is equivalent to house arrest. As long as he does not leave, he can even move freely in the yard.
"Kato-kun, Okamura has already called me to tell me about your situation. The flood has really washed away the Dragon King Temple, and one family has disowned the other. Come and set up a banquet. I want to treat Mr. Kato to a drink."
Hajime Kato said coldly: "There's no need to drink. Since it's a misunderstanding, can I leave?"
"Mr. Kato, don't be anxious. You can leave when Miss Liu comes."
Hajime Kato frowned and said, "Miss Liu? What does my matter have to do with her?"
Xie Xuan said softly: "You are Miss Liu's subordinate. If she doesn't show up, how can you leave?"
This was the reason why he wanted to invite Kato Hajime for a drink. Xie Xuan concluded from Okamura's words that Liu Jing's identity was extraordinary. She was not a spy developed by Kato Hajime, but a spy with a more special identity.
Xie Xuan's voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderbolt in Kato Hao's ears. His eyes widened with an incredible look on his face, and he said in shock: "You...you..."
Xie Xuan smiled and said: "How do I know? Didn't I tell you that Okamura called me? Otherwise, I would come over in person to explain and apologize to Kato-kun?"
When Xie Xuan told Oka Cun that he wanted to arrange for Liu Jing to work at the Qingxiang Office in Northern Jiangsu, Oka Cun hesitated in his reply and said that he would let Liu Jing make her own decision. This made Xie Xuan keenly aware of Liu Jing's identity. Very simple.
He specifically asked Naomi Ueno to leave, but he actually came to see Hajime Kato. Due to the lack of information, Kato Hajime really showed his flaws.
Hajime Kato sighed and said, "Okamura won't tell you either."
Xie Xuan said: "Okamura has agreed to let Liu Jing stay in Nantong, at the office of Qingxiang, Northern Jiangsu. Mr. Kato, do you want to stay too?"
Kato Hajime shook his head: "I am her liaison officer, how can I stay?"
Xie Xuan stood up, bowed to Hajime Kato, and said sincerely: "Well, in that case, I won't keep Kato-kun. Thank you Kato-kun for telling me everything."
This time, Kato Hajime was confused, and a strange look suddenly appeared on his face.
