Not only did Qingshui not care, on the contrary, he was very grateful.
After Duan Shixiang died, Qingshui called Yaguchi over again: "You go to Shenpu again, this time you can meet Gao Yongjian head-on."
Yaguchi asked in surprise: "Why are you still contacting Gao Yongjian?"
Qingshui said: "One last test. Duan Shixiang is a military spy. He and Gao Yongjian are fellow villagers. Your contact with Gao Yongjian will not arouse anyone's suspicion."
"good."
Yaguchi knew that Qing Shui still had the last vestige of fantasy.
Although Duan Shixiang is a military commander, the information he provides may be true.
After Yaguchi arrived at Shenpu, he went directly to the Shenpu branch of the Political Security Bureau and called Gao Yongjian over for questioning.
Gao Yongjian knowingly asked: "Mr. Yaguchi, what happened?"
The actions of the Japanese were basically within Xie Xuan's expectations.
Qing Shui is known as Japan's most powerful agent, but in Ma Tian's view, he is not even worthy of carrying Xie Xuan's shoes.
"You and Duan Shixiang are fellow villagers, right?"
"right."
"When was the last time you saw each other?"
Gao Yongjian thought for a while and said, "It should have been half a month ago. He came to Shenpu and invited me to drink."
Yaguchi asked: "What did you say at that time?"
Gao Yongjian said: "It was just chatting. At that time, he seemed to have asked me, had I been a bandit? He also asked me if I had robbed a woman. How could I, a macho man, rob a woman? Besides, I am a spy now, how could I do it? Something about bandits?”
He had already memorized the circumstances of his "meeting" with Duan Shixiang by heart, and no matter who asked, his answer would not be too far off.
Ma Tian reminded him that he must forget about stopping Liu Jing, and he must think carefully about other people's questions, and his answers must not be exactly the same every time.
Otherwise, it will also arouse suspicion among the Japanese.
Regardless of whether Duan Shixiang is a real military spy, Gao Yongjian is lucky enough to get through this time, and he must cherish this opportunity.
Yaguchi asked: "Have we met before this?"
"I've met before. We met by chance on the street and drank together. Because there were several things happening in Nantong, he asked out of curiosity and also mentioned Liu Jing's death. Liu Jing is the wife of Director Ma. She is also the sister-in-law in our hearts. Duan Shixiang actually said that Director Ma had nothing to do with Liu Jing's death. I said at the time that they had a very good relationship and Director Ma would not be tempted even if he met a more beautiful woman outside. "
"Can you write me a report on these two meetings?"
"This...can we wait until Director Ma comes back?"
Yaguchi said with a cold face: "I am now representing the second class of the China Dispatch Army Headquarters. Even if Ma Tian comes back, you have to carry out the task."
He was from the second class and a close confidant of Qing Shui. Not to mention Ma Tian, even Xie Xuan was respectful in front of him.
"Well, since we were both drunk during these two meetings, if I can't recall some details, please forgive me, Mr. Yaguchi."
After getting Gao Yongjian's report, Yaguchi discovered that it was completely contrary to Duan Shixiang's statement at the time.
For example, Duan Shixiang told Qing Shui that Gao Yongjian had said that he had robbed a beautiful woman, but Gao Yongjian said that Ma Tian would not be tempted even if he saw a beautiful woman.
Ma Tian's love for Liu Jing comes from the bottom of his heart. It turns out that the spies everywhere and in the Jiangsu Experimental Zone know this.
For Liu Jing, Ma Tian could give up everything at any time, including his life, so how could he harm Liu Jing?
Usually when Liu Jing gets hurt, Ma Tian feels very distressed.
Yaguchi took this report and quickly handed it to Shimizu after returning to Nanjing.
Qing Shui sighed and said: "If I could have contacted Gao Yongjian earlier, Duan Shixiang's plan might not have succeeded. Duan Shixiang was sure that I would attack Gao Yongjian, and he was also sure of the time to return to the mountain city. The funny thing is, I thought I was doing something right. I was very cautious, but I still fell into Duan Shixiang's trick. He had figured out my character and temper, and if I wasn't careful, he would lead me away."
Yaguchi reminded: "The death of Jinzi cannot have anything to do with Xie Xuan and Ma Tian. Ma Tian has already wiped out the bandits and avenged Miss Jinzi. Please also ask Section Chief Qingshui not to worry about this matter anymore, otherwise it will only affect you." Mood."
Qingshui said: "During this period, I was indeed blinded by hatred. I always wanted to avenge Kaneko. She is dead and has been loyal to the emperor. Isn't this the best destination? From now on, I will cheer up. Rise up and make due contributions to ending the Sino-Japanese War as soon as possible."
Yaguchi smiled and said, "It's great that Section Chief Shimizu thinks so."
Shimizu said: "Japan's Supreme War Guidance Council passed the "Implementation of Political Work Plan for Chongqing" and decided to quickly cease the war with Yamashiro. The cabinet hopes to negotiate directly with Yamashiro to end this war as soon as possible. As special agents, we must play our due role . Kato Hajime, if we can directly negotiate with Yamashiro, our country's losses can be greatly reduced. The current situation is not good for Japan, and the timing is good. If we can reach a peace agreement with Yamashiro, so that the Japanese army can pull out of the quagmire in China, it will definitely It’s a unique feat.”
Yaguchi asked: "Should we contact Yamashiro directly?"
Qingshui said: "That won't work. This matter must not be known to the outside world. We can only let the Nanjing government come forward."
Japan still has a huge advantage, but it is not an absolute advantage. If Yamashiro does not bow his head or cannot sit at the negotiating table, the situation will only get worse.
"How can we get the news to Yamashiro?"
Qingshui said: "This is a matter for Wang Mingzhao's government. We only need to assign tasks."
Yaguchi suggested: "How about giving Xie Xuan a try? These officials in Nanjing seemed to have a high status in the mountain city before, but the mountain city no longer takes them seriously."
Qingshui said: "Okay, we can't let go of any possibility. Yaguchi, if we can force the army in Yamashiro to cease fighting, it will be a great achievement. In the future, no one can make greater contributions than us."
Qingshui intended to let Xie Xuan contact Shancheng. He specially called Xie Xuan to Nanjing and conveyed to him the opinions of Japan's top war director and the key points of the peace talks:
First, make peace purely on the basis of equality; second, if the United States withdraws its air force in Chongqing, Japan will withdraw all its troops; third, Shancheng and Britain and the United States respect Shancheng's opinions and decisions; fourth, regarding the guarantee issue, we can discuss it with Shancheng Decide. As for the Wang-Chiang issue and the Ning-Chongqing issue, these are China's internal affairs and must be decided after consultation between the two sides.
Xie Xuan said softly: "Qingshui-kun, I want to go to the mountain city in person and contact the senior officials of the mountain city, hoping to persuade them to start a new Sino-Japanese peace talks."
