Chapter 675: Meeting Ding Li for the first time (seeking a monthly ticket)(1/2)
After knowing the specific situation, everyone was relieved. Fujiwara Company was not only the leader of the smuggling kingdom, but also the normal trade was unparalleled in the business world. It is a veritable giant.
As for the president Tomohito Fujiwara, he has a terrifying background. It seems that this time, the secret service department and other people touched Fujiwara Tomohito's interests and then took action.
Under the strong threat of Takeshi Ishikawa, Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun could no longer shirk their power, so they had to order Qin Lechi to be released, and Wu Shicai dragged Qin Lechi out of the interrogation room.
At this time, Qin Lechi had been beaten to the point of being so bleak that he was covered in blood and was shocking, leaving only one breath.
Qin Lechi's miserable appearance made these merchants tremble. They were locked up by Wu Shicai just to seek wealth, so they were just detained without torture. However, unexpectedly, Qin Lechi was beaten like this. These people were so cruel!
Takeshi Ishikawa was also shocked when he saw it. Fujiwara Tomohito and Katsuda Takashi asked him to come to the Secret Service mainly to save Qin Lechi. The others were just a big shot. Now that they were beaten like this, how could he go back and explain?
Takeshi Ishikawa shook his hand and gave Wu Shicai a big mouth, which made Wu Shicai stagger and almost fell to the ground.
"Damn it! Manager Qin is a business partner of Fujiwara Company. You dare to treat him like this." Takeshi Ishikawa was very angry. He suddenly remembered Katsuda Takashi's confession. He was still late, afraid that the other party had received a confession that was not conducive to Su Yue. "Take the interrogation record, hurry up!"
Wu Shicai was touched for nothing, but he did not dare to have an attack. As for the interrogation records that Ishikawa Takeshi wanted, there was no such thing as Qin Lechi bit him to death and he didn't ask anything at all.
"No, no interrogation record!"
Takeshi Ishikawa was not willing to believe it. He grabbed Wu Shicai and slapped it, causing bleeding from the corner of his mouth. If Katsuda Takashi hadn't repeatedly told him not to make things worse and anger Lieutenant General Tuhara, he would have slashed Wu Shicai with one knife.
He waved his hand and sent the military police to the interrogation room to search, and then arrested several spies to inquire carefully, confirming that there was indeed no interrogation record. Only then did Takeshi Ishikawa release Wu Shicai.
He pointed to Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun and said, "Now please come with me!"
Li Zhiqun whispered to Secretary Zhuang behind him: "Call Director Tohara quickly..."
Before he could finish his words, he was pushed out by the Japanese military police. Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun had to get on the military police car under the coercion of the military police.
Takeshi Ishikawa was staring at the departure of more than a dozen merchants, and arranged for someone to send Qin Lechi to the hospital for bandage. Then he ordered the team to be terminated, and the convoy quickly drove to Fujiwara Club.
Along the way, Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun looked at the Japanese military policemen who were fully armed and had bad eyes, and were uneasy and dared not say a word.
They didn't know why President Fujiwara brought them over to meet, nor did they know how this powerful man would treat him, for fear that he would never return, but they did not dare to resist at all, so they could only follow him with a slightest slightest.
Although they have not been in Shanghai for a long time, they are in intelligence after all, and the distribution of forces in Shanghai is a homework that these people must do.
The name Fujiwara Tomohito is well-known. This son of a top Japanese nobleman can be said to be an important and powerful figure in Shanghai. The background behind him is extremely profound. Although he is in the business world, his influence in the military is unparalleled. Whether it is in the Shanghai garrison or the military police headquarters, he has enough supporters.
Moreover, all smuggling businesses in Shanghai are under his control, and they are the backstage and controller of the Shanghai smuggling Kingdom.
Such Japanese senior officials are naturally superior to Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun, and they need to look up to them.
If President Fujiwara really wants to harm them, I am afraid that they, the traitors, will not escape death. After all, the pseudo-government has not been established at this time. After all, they are just peripheral personnel of the Japanese intelligence department. In the minds of the Japanese, their status is really not high. Will they question people like Fujiwara Tomohito because of their death?
The vehicle was driving all the way, and the two of them held the tension in their hearts and barely looked calm. When the vehicle arrived at Fujiwara Club, Takeshi Ishikawa signaled them to get off.
"Be honest, be careful when talking to President Fujiwara, be careful about your attitude and wording, and don't talk nonsense!"
Takeshi Ishikawa explained clearly, so he brought the two people into Fujiwara Club. Soon Yi Huaan greeted them and took them to a living room.
"Please wait, two, I'll report to the president!" Yi Huaan nodded slightly.
After saying that, Takeshi Ishikawa and Yi Huaan went out to report to Ning Zhiheng.
Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun were calm at this time. Judging from Yi Huaan's kind attitude, President Fujiwara didn't seem to be calculating with them, otherwise he wouldn't be so polite.
But a long time passed, no one came to pay attention to them. The two of them were suspicious. They looked at the Japanese bodyguards guarding the door staring at them coldly, but did not dare to ask more questions, so they had to wait patiently.
Finally, the sound of footsteps outside sounded, and a tall young man walked slowly into the living room.
The two of them looked up and saw that it was Fujiwara Tomohito, the president of Fujiwara Society. When they were on duty to protect the consulate, they had seen Fujiwara Tomohito beside Hiroki Fujiwara.
"Mr. Fujiwara!" The two of them quickly stood up and bowed.
Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly, waved his hand to let them sit down, and came to the main seat and sat down.
"Two, today you take the liberty to let you come here to visit. Please don't mind if you are rude!"
Ning Zhiheng's attitude was very gentle and there was no sign of any adverse meaning to the two people. He deliberately spoken Chinese in a bad way, but there was no problem with ordinary communication.
Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun finally put down the stone in their hearts. President Fujiwara and Takeshi Nakasa Ishikawa had completely different attitudes. They were so friendly, gentle and polite, and they didn't think they would make things difficult for themselves.
Ding Mo quickly leaned forward, sat on half of the sofa on his butt, and said respectfully: "Mr. Fujiwara, you are polite. We have been reverent for Mr. Daimyo for a long time and have wanted to visit him, but no one recommended him. It was too abrupt. Today we have the fate to visit him. We are honored!"
Ning Zhiheng smiled and said, "Both are talents that General Tuhara is interested in and is a new high in the new government. I also hope to get to know you, so I specially invited you to talk about it."
Ning Zhiheng knew that these two people occupied a very important position in the future Wang Puppet Government, especially Li Zhiqun, who came from behind and defected to Wang Baihai, and soon received high appreciation. Not only did he become a senior official in Jiangsu Province, he also took over the secret service of the Wang Puppet Government and intervened everywhere. He soon developed the secret service headquarters into an extremely huge secret service system, competing with the Military Affairs Bureau, and gaining the upper hand repeatedly. In the end, not only did he open the branch to various parts of the Japanese occupied area, but he even had branches in Wuhan. He was strong and became a hot figure in the Wang Puppet Government.
Of course this is a later story. Even now, these two people cannot be easily dealt with. They are the capable hawks of Takahara Keiji. Ning Zhiheng has always been quite afraid of Takahara Keiji and is unwilling to fight him directly. He is unwilling to take this risk. It is really not worth the loss!
Ning Zhiheng's main goal is not to eliminate traitors, but to maintain smuggling channels. As for how to deal with the No. 76 Agent Headquarters, it is the matter of the bureau.
Li Zhiqun also nodded repeatedly and said, "Mr. Fujiwara summoned us, so he naturally had some advice. As long as we could do it, we would definitely go through fire and water and never refuse!"
Ning Zhiheng slapped the handguards of the seat, coughed gently, and said lightly: "Okay, then I'll go straight to the point. You know, our Fujiwara Club has some influence in the business world in Shanghai, and has a little reputation, so many businessmen have business dealings with our company, but you suddenly arrested them before, which made it difficult for our Fujiwara Club to operate. For this reason, I need an explanation!"
Ding Mo and the other two had already prepared their words on the way. When they heard Ning Zhiheng's inquiries, Ding Mo quickly explained: "This time it was indeed our dereliction of duty. We were not careful and our subordinates were blind and offended Mr. Fujiwara. I will definitely tell them after I go back. I will never do anything bad to Fujiwara Club in the future. Please forgive me!"
Li Zhiqun also hurriedly replied: "Mr. Fujiwara, we two have just arrived in Shanghai, and the secret service department has just been established. We don't understand many situations, so this misunderstanding arises. This kind of thing will never happen again. Please give us a chance."
Seeing that the two of them were respectful, Ning Zhiheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "You are so serious. Even if you make mistakes, you will inevitably make some mistakes.
However, the original intention of the two, the secret service department was to deal with the increasingly rampant Chinese agents. I understand that I have been assassinated by Chinese agents one after another, and I hate this, but most Chinese people still obey us and we cannot arrest them wantonly.
Shanghai is the largest city in the Far East and the base camp of Central China. The empire needs a stable and prosperous rear, and some things cannot be done too much.
Take the people you arrested this time for example. You know whether they are anti-Japanese elements. You are just trying to withdraw some money. But everything is appropriate. I heard that you, a businessman, have a ransom of 5,000 US dollars, and your appetite is too big. Even if I dare not do this!"
Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun looked at each other, and Ding Mo answered first: "Mr. Fujiwara, we don't know many of these things. We didn't expect that our subordinates would do so recklessly. We would definitely punish them severely after we go back."
In fact, these things were instructed by Ding and Li. Both of them are greedy and insatiable characters. If you have the chance to make a big fortune, how could you let it go?
Although it is for some activity funds, most of the money will be added to their own pockets in the end.
Of course, Ning Zhiheng knew these things, but he just didn't point them out. He was too lazy to preach, and said directly: "Okay, I'm not your commander after all, I don't care about your affairs, but the premise is that it cannot affect the interests of Fujiwara Club. What do you think?"
This is very straightforward and clear, Ding Mo quickly explained: "Don't worry, from now on, we will never disturb your business partners, nor will it affect any interests of Fujiwara Club."
"Okay, then we'll make up for it!" Ning Zhiheng nodded with a smile.
"However, Mr. Fujiwara, Qin Lechi was arrested today, and his situation was a little different!" Ding Mo's expression was a little embarrassed, and hesitated for a moment and continued, "He is the person who was specially assigned to the arrest by the head of the Tuhara agency, the purpose..."
"I know the whole story of this matter!" Ning Zhiheng waved his hand and interrupted him.
When Ning Zhiheng heard them moving out of Tu Yuan Jinger, his tone was a little unhappy. Seeing the sudden sharp and impatient gaze of the two people suddenly made Ding and Li feel a chill in their hearts.
"I will explain to Director Tuhara in person. Mayor Su and I are friends. I will coordinate the matter with Director Tuhara and I will not make you embarrassed."
Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun looked at each other and had to nod and said yes. Ning Zhiheng continued: "I heard that you also took away a batch of Mayor Su's goods."
"We'll send it back right away!" Ding Mo quickly replied respectfully.
Seeing that the two of them were still aware of each other, Ning Zhiheng's face calmed down and he smiled and said, "Very good. There is a saying in China that people who know the times are heroes. Both of them are talents, so I don't need to say much."
Seeing Ning Zhiheng's gentle attitude and chatting and laughing calmly, Ding and Li did not dare to feel negligent. They knew very well that some of the Japanese styles were gentle and polite, but their actual methods were ruthless and had no credit at all.
At this time, Yi Huaan knocked in and entered.
"President, General Tohara's phone number!"
When Ning Zhiheng heard that it was the main owner who was hired, he stood up and said to Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun politely: "Let's just come here today, thank you for your hard work."
After saying that, he said to Yi Huaan: "Use my car to take the two directors back."
"I dare not, I dare not!"
Seeing Ning Zhiheng go out, Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun both relaxed. It seemed that today's level had passed.
"Please come with me, two!"
Accompanied by Yi Huaan, they finally walked out of Fujiwara Club. The two of them turned around and looked at the office building of Fujiwara Club. They both breathed a sigh of relief. The cold sweat that had oozed out of tension had already soaked the collars. At this time, they felt particularly uncomfortable.
"Go away, don't come here again in the future!"
Ning Zhiheng returned to his office, picked up the phone, and said in a harmonious voice: "I am Zhiren, I have been waiting for the general for a long time!"
"Fujiwara, you are moving too fast. You even sent a military police force to the agent headquarters to rob the prisoners. This is not very suitable for your identity!"
A voice of unhappiness from Takahara Keiji came from the other end of the phone.
Although he knew that Fujiwara Tomohito's identity was different now, he was unhappy as a person who had been in power for a long time, directly mobilizing the military police force to seize the criminals he ordered to arrest.
If he hadn't been quite afraid of Lieutenant General Junhei Uehara and even more concerned about the Fujiwara family, especially the direct children of the Fujiwara family would have real power sooner or later. He would not want to get along with him, otherwise he would have never been so polite.
Ning Zhiheng laughed and said, "Please calm down, please calm down. Before I took action, I really didn't know that Qin Lechi was the person ordered by the general to arrest him. Otherwise, no matter how ignorant I was, I would not be so reckless. I just wanted to rescue several of my partners. To be honest, the Secret Service arrested people everywhere, which made it difficult for my Fujiwara Company to operate. I had no choice but to take action.
Later, when I heard the narrative between Ding Mo and the others, I realized that this was the order of your general. It was so rude!"
When Kojiro Takahara heard Ning Zhiheng's nonsense, he couldn't help but curse the little fox. In the report he received, Li Zhiqun had clearly stated that he had ordered the arrest of Qin Lechi, but the military police ignored it at all. If it weren't for Fujiwara Tomoto, how could the military police dare to take the initiative to steal people with it?
However, Ning Zhiheng said this and gave Keiji Torahara to the point where Keiji Torahara slowed down and said kindly: "Mr. Fujiwara, I think you are clear about my true intentions. The Shirahara agency is responsible for the establishment of a new government. I have agreed to hand over the position of Su Yue as the mayor of Shanghai to the important member of the new government, but he has always been attached to him, so he beat him up. Now that you have taken the person away, please solve this matter so that Su Yue will be more aware of it and everyone will be good-looking."
"Don't worry about this. Su Yue is also a smart person. He has promised to voluntarily resign as mayor of Shanghai. He obeys the general's arrangements in everything. I hope the general will not pursue it."
When Keiji Tuhara felt a little more uncomfortable when he heard this, he still wanted to give Fujiwara Tomohito the face. Could it be that he really broke up and didn't dare to do this? Besides, he was thinking about borrowing the Fujiwara brand.
"Okay, that's it. Fujiwara Jun, you just call me for some things. Is it easy for everyone to discuss? There is no need to send someone to the door directly. After all, the Secret Service is still my subordinate agency, and it doesn't look good on the face. In fact, as long as Fujiwara Jun is willing to surrender to the head of the agency, everything will be solved!"
Keiji Tuhara still didn't give up and was preparing to launch Ning Zhiheng. Especially Fujiwara Tomohito's identity is very different now. As the direct descendant of the Fujiwara family, the meaning is absolutely different.
When Ning Zhiheng heard this, he quickly called out and laughed: "General is joking. Let's not mention this matter anymore. Today's matter is that I am reckless. If you have the chance to apologize to the general in the future!"
Seeing that Ning Zhiheng was not slick, Keiji Tuhara was helpless, so he had to talk a few words without hesitation, and then put down the phone in disappointment.
To be continued...
