My years of espionage

Chapter 1133 Abundant Talents
After the door of the lounge in Araki Harima's office was closed tightly, there was still a tiny gap.

It's a gap that rarely gets noticed.

Cheng Qianfan has noticed this gap for a long time, he is used to discovering and remembering some details of the surrounding environment, these details may be useful or not at all, but as a lurker, the ability to pay attention to these very hidden details The habit has been engraved in his bones.

Right after taking his seat, Cheng Qianfan exchanged greetings with Araki Harima, and instead of clinking glasses, he secretly looked at the door of the inner lounge:
The lounge should be lit.

A trace of light leaked from that invisible gap.

Then, that glimmer of light turned to darkness.

What does this mean?
It means that someone was standing behind the door, which just covered the small gap and blocked the light from leaking out.

From this, Cheng Qianfan concluded that there was someone in the inner lounge.

He initially judged that the person in the inner lounge should be the guest that Araki Harima had just entertained.

This person was too late to leave, and it was inconvenient to show others, so he hid in the room for the time being.

When did he find out, or tend to suspect that Sanben Jiro was also in the lounge?
It was Araki Harima who received the call from the section chief's office, ordering Koike to go to the section chief's office.

Harima Araki picked up the phone and told Koike that the section chief invited him over.

Hearing this, Xiaochi hurriedly got up to say goodbye and leave.

However, Cheng Qianfan noticed Xiaochi's expression of surprise at that time.

This surprised expression was only fleeting, but was successfully captured by Cheng Qianfan.

It is quite normal for Sanben Jiro to ask Koike to go over, why is Koike surprised?
The most likely answer is that Xiaochi knew that it was impossible for the section chief to call him over at this time.

Why is it impossible?

There are many possible situations:
The head of the class is not in the special high class; or for some reason, Xiaochi knows that the head of the class will not look for him at this time.

Cheng Qianfan was not sure which one it was.

However, one thing is certain, that is, this call is to pay off Xiaochi.

Why should Xiaochi be dismissed.

Naturally, it was to create a private conversation environment between him and Araki Harima, a pair of good friends.

Who would do this?
In other words, who has the right to issue this order to Xiaochi.

In the special high class, only Sanben Jiro has this right.

Cheng Qianfan has three guesses:

First, the call was made by Jiro Sanben himself. Then, Jiro Sanben may be in the office, or he may have just returned to the special high school. This is what surprised Koike, because he thought that Jiro Sanben would not I will go back to extra high school.

Second, the call is from Sanben Jiro, but Sanben Jiro is not in the office of the head of the special high school.

Third, the call was not made by Sanben Jiro, but someone else called in the name of Sanben Jiro.

Cheng Qianfan paid special attention to the third situation. Why did someone else call in the name of Sanben Jiro?

The reason may be very simple and clear - Jiro Sanben himself is not convenient to make a call at this time, this call was ordered by Jiro Sanben in advance and arranged in advance.

Why is it inconvenient to make a phone call?
Cheng Qianfan then had a guess that Jiro Sanben himself was also in the inner lounge, which meant that there were probably two people in the inner lounge.

Of course, all this is just his analysis and judgment.

No matter what, since it was confirmed that there was someone hiding and eavesdropping in the inner lounge, Cheng Qianfan pulled himself together and immediately formulated a countermeasure. He decided to use his tactics:
He wants to show his anger towards Hiroo Kikube in front of Araki Harima, and he can even construct a situation when he can subtly show his hatred for Kikube, and under this hatred, he doesn't mind using the " Shady 'trick.

This method of confessing one's privacy psychology to friends in a private environment is the most trustworthy way to win the trust of eavesdroppers.

In addition, Cheng Qianfan's consideration is that since he has decided to attack Jubu, then showing his hatred for Jubu will not cause fire, but will have a magical effect.

As for when Cheng Qianfan confirmed that Jiro Sanben was in the inner lounge?
When he said goodbye and left, he deliberately mentioned that he should have visited Sanben Jiro's office. At this time, he noticed a ray of anxiety in Araki Harima's eyes.

Then he took advantage of the situation and said that the section chief summoned Xiaochi, maybe there is some task, so he should not take the initiative to send it to the door.

Araki Harima laughed, as if secretly relieved.

In this way, Cheng Qianfan was sure that Sanben Jiro was in the inner lounge.

Well, now comes the question.

To be precise, there are three problems.

One: Who is this mysterious person that Araki Harima hosted a private banquet in his office?
Second, because it was really too late to leave, and I was worried about being bumped into, so I simply avoided it in the inner lounge for the time being?
In other words, it was indeed because of this reason that he temporarily entered the inner lounge for a while, but then Koike was dismissed and eavesdropped behind the door. This was due to the secret agent's habit of eavesdropping. I have doubts about him, so I set up this opportunity to eavesdrop?

Third, Sanben Jiro and the guests had time to leave early, but they chose to enter the inner lounge for the clear purpose of eavesdropping?

Cheng Qianfan now tends to be the latter, the reason is very straightforward——

Koike was dismissed by the phone, and if Jiro Sanben himself was in the inner lounge, the only explanation is that there was a long-standing arrangement for dismissing Koike.

Then, here comes the most serious and crucial question.

Still the problem-

Why did Sanben Jiro eavesdrop?

……

At this moment, Sanben Jiro had returned to the section chief's office, and he made a cup of sober tea for Toshihiko Okada himself.

"Try Okada-kun." Jiro Mimoto said with a smile, "The top-grade Mingqian Biluochun."

"Thank you." Okada Toshihiko rubbed the lid of the teacup lightly. He frowned slightly and asked, "Sanben-kun, are you suspicious of Miyazaki Kentaro?"

Just now, an agent came to Araki Harima to report that Miyazaki Kentaro was visiting, and Sanben Jiro had enough time to take him out of Araki's office.

However, Sanben Jiro asked casually, and learned that Koike was leading Miyazaki upstairs.

Sanben directly ordered a trusted agent to call Araki's office fifteen minutes later, ordering Koike to come over in the name of the section chief.

Then Sanben Jiro led him to temporarily hide in the inner lounge.

Toshihiko Okada immediately judged that Jiro Sanben wanted to eavesdrop.

Why eavesdrop?
Are you suspicious of this Miyazaki Kentaro?Or Araki Harima?
Toshihiko Okada first ruled out the latter, after all, he has a secret mission in Shanghai this time, since Sanben Jiro allowed Araki Harima to pick him up secretly at the train station, it shows that Sanben Jiro trusts Araki Harima.

"Personally, there is nothing suspicious about Miyazaki." Sanben Jiro shook his head, "It's just—"

He took a sip of tea, frowned and said, "Kikube insists that there is something wrong with Miyazaki Kentaro."

"Kikube is Sanben-kun's trusted subordinate, and Miyazaki Kentaro is the same." Okada Toshihiko nodded slightly, "However, from what I have heard and seen just now, the conflict between the two is very deep, so, Sanben-kun, you are also in a hurry." Hard to tell."

As he spoke, Toshihiko Okada showed admiration in his eyes, "Mr. Sanben is smart and flexible, I admire you."

Regarding the words of the two vengeful subordinates, the credibility should obviously be questioned.

Obviously, because he didn't know which of the two subordinates was right or wrong, Sanben Jiro chose the simplest way:

Objective screening and verification!
What he admired was that Jiro Sanben came up with ideas quickly and was very good at seizing opportunities. No, he learned that Kentaro Miyazaki came to visit Araki Harima, and that Harima Araki was a friend of Kentaro Miyazaki who talked about everything. An eavesdropping plan was temporarily set up to screen and inspect Miyazaki Kentaro.

As for the investigation results?
It's not that nothing was gained, Miyazaki Kentaro actually tried to frame Hiroo Kikube, which shows that the relationship between these two people is already in dire straits.

It can be said that this is a scandal within the Shanghai Super High School, but it was heard by Toshihiko Okada. For Jiro Sanben, this is really a bit embarrassing.

However, the two have been close friends for many years, so it doesn't matter.

……

"Mr. Sanben, your subordinates can be said to be full of talents." Okada Toshihiko said.

Seeing Jiro Sanben's face change slightly, he smiled and said, this is definitely a compliment, not a sarcasm.

"Araki Harima may seem vulgar, but in fact there are subtleties in the roughness." Toshihiko Okada said.

Sanben Jiro nodded, "Araki performed very well today. With the shrewdness of Miyazaki Kentaro, Araki is very calm and has no flaws."

"No, no, I'm not just talking about Araki's acting performance." Okada Toshihiko shook his head, "Araki's thinking is very open, he judged that there are doctors in the Shanghai Special Affairs Unit, or there are private clinics, which is very good Insightful."

Xiao Mian's department is not only the confidant of the Shanghai Super High School, but even in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, Xiao Mian is also a registered criminal in the Chongqing military command.

Sanben Jiro introduced to him that Xiao Mian personally led the team to rescue Sheng Shuyu. This is the first real face-to-face confrontation with Xiao Mian on the side of the empire so far. Therefore, Toshihiko Okada is also very concerned. case.

Therefore, for Araki Harima's analysis and judgment, Okada Toshihiko quite praised him. He is a very quick-witted guy, and the most rare thing is that Araki Harima looks vulgar and stupid.

"It's also selfish." Jiro Sanben snorted coldly.

He naturally knew why Araki Harima deliberately insisted that Xiao Mian himself was a doctor.

"It is impossible for a person to be selfless." Toshihiko Okada chuckled, how could a person be without selfishness?As an officer, the most important thing is to maximize the ability of his subordinates to do things. At the same time, on the premise of ensuring the loyalty of his subordinates, he should turn a blind eye to some selfishness. This is very good.

"Okada-kun, you seem to appreciate Miyazaki Kentaro more?" Sanben Jiro asked suddenly.

"Am I acting obvious?" Okada Toshihiko asked with a smile.

"The mission of your trip..." Jiro Sanben shook his head, "How could you not notice when you see Miyazaki like this?"

He took the cigarette from Toshihiko Okada and said seriously, "I don't agree."

Okada Toshihiko looked at Sanben Jiro, "Sanben-kun, I need a reason to convince me."

"Miyazaki is very important in the French Concession." Sanben Jiro said with a serious expression, "Especially at this moment when Britain and France declared war on Germany, Miyazaki's connections within the French Concession, especially the relationship with the French, are of great importance to the empire. Gathering information is very important."

Okada Toshihiko frowned slightly, he noticed that Sanben Jiro was naturally very familiar with the abilities of his subordinates, and naturally knew Miyazaki Kentaro's temperament and characteristics, but Sanben Jiro did not recommend Miyazaki Kentaro to him before. This shows that Sanben Jiro really does not want to 'sell' Miyazaki Kentaro.

"The matter of Europa is too far away from the Chinese battlefield." Toshihiko Okada shook his head, "I think Sanben-kun understands the impact of my mission on the situation in China."

He has a serious expression, "I still hope that the three kings will part with each other."

Sanben Jiro looked solemn and remained silent.

With a glance, he could see the rows of red wine in the wine cabinet.

For some inexplicable reason, he really didn't want to second Miyazaki Kentaro to Toshihiko Okada. Okada was very good at wooing and bewitching his subordinates. It would be terrible if it was "Uncle Liu borrowing Jingzhou".

"It's just a secondment." Toshihiko Okada said, "It won't be long. After this incident, Miyazaki Kentaro will return to the special high school."

"Miyazaki Kentaro's current latent identity is hard-won, and he is not easy to leave." Sanben Jiro still shook his head and said.

This is not an excuse to shirk. The identity of the deputy chief inspector of the police station in the Central District of the French Concession is very important. Sanben Jiro will never allow Miyazaki Kentaro to lose this cover identity.

Toshihiko Okada shook his head. Under such circumstances, this young man was still able to successfully lead the topic. Although from an objective point of view, Miyazaki Kentaro is a dead duck, but Toshihiko Okada still captured the young man leading the topic. His ability, and this cleverness made him very happy.

In addition, when I met Kentaro Miyazaki for the first time in Hangzhou that year, the performance of this young man left a deep impression on him.

but--

"Okay." Okada Toshihiko shook his head regretfully, "Since there are so many inconveniences, it's fine."

It's not that Miyazaki Kentaro has to, it's just that Sanben Jiro is unwilling to give up his love, and he feels a little uncomfortable after all.

Some words were not speculative, so Okada Toshihiko excused that he was tired and got up to leave.

Sanben Jiro sent Okada Toshihiko downstairs, and after watching his friend get in the car and leave, he snorted coldly.

This Okada is so yellow and white, how does he know whether Okada is really thinking about the mission or has ulterior motives!
In addition, there are vague rumors that if Toshihiko Okada successfully completes this mission, he will complete the span from Lieutenant to Colonel. Not only that, Toshihiko Okada will also be favored and valued by the military with his outstanding performance, and his future prospects are limitless , It can even be said that on the road to becoming a star, Toshihiko Okada may even be one step ahead of Jiro Sanben.

The two are indeed close friends. When Toshihiko Okada was in trouble, Jiro Sanben specially asked Kawada-sama's relationship to help him clear up, but... after all, he couldn't be open-minded and just sit back and watch this friend come from behind.

Back at the office, Sanben Jiro called Araki Harima over.

"To check the relationship between Kikube and Mizutani Yuuji." Sanben Jiro said coldly.

Anyway, he has to check it out, otherwise he won't be at ease.

……

The night is dark.

The vehicle lights pierced through the night, and Toshihiko Okada watched the lamp post stretching forward, he was slightly absent-minded.

"Turn right at the intersection ahead." Okada Toshihiko said suddenly.

"Sir, are you not going back to the guest house?" The driver asked in surprise.

"Go to the Gendarmerie Command." Okada Toshihiko said in a deep voice.

Sanben Jiro was determined and unwilling to second Miyazaki Kentaro. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

He didn't think there was anything ulterior about his friend, but he just couldn't figure it out.

Miyazaki Kentaro is a subordinate of Sanben Jiro, and based on his relationship with Sanben Jiro, Sanben Jiro should not refuse to help.

Toshihiko Okada thought about it for a while, and he found that he had overlooked one point. He only paid attention to Miyazaki Kentaro's identity as a special agent of the Special High School. Although he also knew the identity of Cheng Qianfan pretended by Miyazaki Kentaro, Not too deep, especially Cheng Qianfan's current situation, which he doesn't know well.

Is it because Cheng Qianfan's identity is really important, and Mr. Sanben is so cautious that he doesn't want to be seconded?

His intuition told him that things would not be that simple.

He decided to ask his acquaintances at the Shanghai Gendarmerie Command.
