bastard

Two days later, the house on Baoshan Road returned to its original owner.That night, Zhu Nanjiang received a call from Tian Dongbao, saying that the matter was unintentional, and he did not know who the owner of the house was beforehand.

Zhu Nanjiang naturally regarded him as farting and accepted the apology with his mouth, but he mocked the other party in the open and in the dark.In the end, Tian Dongbao proposed to make an apology in person, and he hung up the phone saying "no time".

However, a few days later, Consul Yoshimura sent someone to send an invitation card, inviting him to attend a banquet held by the consulate early next month.Zhu Nanjiang knew that people from the military department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were staring at him, so this matter should not be delayed any longer, so he nodded in agreement.

The banquet was held at the Garden Hotel in the Japanese Concession.Most of the participants were Japanese military and political figures and "China-Japan friendly people" working for the new government. To put it bluntly, they were traitors.

Zhu Nanjiang knew that since he was present, it would be difficult to stay out of it, he would not be able to distinguish the relationship anyway, and it would be meaningless to put on airs, so as soon as he entered the restaurant, he looked around for familiar faces.

Vice Consul Iwaizumi squeezed his way through the crowd, bowed and greeted him.Just as Zhu Nanjiang answered a few words, Zhongzuo Suzuki came out of nowhere and interrupted the topic abruptly.

"Mr. Zhu! You are finally here!"

"What, am I late?"

"No, no...it's a rare opportunity, we should talk more."

Vice-Consul Iwaizumi stood aside with a slight smile until Lieutenant Suzuki introduced Zhu Nanjiang into the ballroom but was unable to interrupt.

Zhu Nanjiang could tell that the banquet was said to be organized by the consulate, but the real protagonists were members of the military.Song Chenggeng was right, only those with military ranks in the occupied areas have the right to speak.

The colorful lights in the ballroom are dazzling.In the corner, there are musicians in Western costumes playing, and it is hard to tell what country the music is.

Lieutenant Suzuki led Zhu Nanjiang to the sofa by the dance floor: "What did Mr. Zhu think about what you said a while ago?

The latter grinned: "You just rested, and you are going to talk to me about business?"

"Haha! That's not what I mean...Mr. Zhu, please feel free. There is still an hour before dinner. What do you want to drink first?"

He said yes, please feel free, but the other party obviously didn't intend to let him act freely.Zhu Nanjiang also said the polite words and drank the wine, seeing that he couldn't get away for a while and had to continue looking for something to say.

The two talked about the house on Baoshan Road.

Mr. Suzuki said that the military depot was indeed being expanded in that area for the use of the Armed Forces Department of the Iwaizumi Mansion.The Iwaizumi Mansion, the public name of the intelligence agency headed by the consulate, sounds like a place of pure entertainment.

The Yanquan Mansion had just been established and was short of staff. The newly appointed Director of the Intelligence Department, Tian Dongbao, was ordered to be in charge of preparing for the construction of the military depot. Who would have thought that Zhu Nanjiang would be affected by an inattentiveness.

"Yanquan-kun is like this. He doesn't follow the rules when doing things. But Director Tian didn't intend to make things difficult for you. We are all on our own, so it's okay to clear up a little misunderstanding."

Oh, what a small misunderstanding... Zhu Nanjiang sneered in his heart, if I suffer from this dumbness in silence, he might destroy my shop and warehouse in two days!

"By the way, is Director Tian here today?"

"Come on, come early, I'll ask him to come over and apologize to you personally."

"Don't, don't, there's no need, I'm not a grudge."

"Accompaniment is the right thing to do!"

Suzuki Osamu looked around looking for Tian Dongbao, but he didn't see him for a long time.At this time, an adjutant dressed as a young man stepped forward and whispered something to him, and the latter slapped his knee: "Mayor Yao is here, let's go and say something together."

Yao Chengqi, a businessman, was originally a comprador of a British trading company, and later served as the general manager of Shanghai Bank of Communications. He was the first to openly surrender to the enemy after the fall of Shanghai.

Zhu Nanjiang had heard about this person a long time ago, and thought he was just a shrewd opportunist, but he turned into the mayor.Even so, he has no desire to befriend her.

"I'm a little tired from rushing all the way, I'll rest for a while."

"Well, Mr. Zhu, if you have any requirements, just ask."

Lieutenant Suzuki followed the adjutant out of the ballroom.Zhu Nanjiang heaved a sigh of relief, just as he raised his legs and wanted to smoke a cigarette, suddenly a person sat down next to him in silence: "Mr. Zhu, it's really hard to see you!"

Zhu Nanjiang's hand holding the lighter stopped in the air, the flame flickered and then went out: "Why didn't you come out when I was looking for you just now?"

Tian Dongbao raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Why do you want me? Make amends to you?"

"It sounds like you're not very happy."

"Whether you are happy or not, you have to pay. Mr. Zhu, you know that I have always had nothing to do with you."

I haven't seen him for two or three years. The man doesn't seem to have changed much, and his speech is still eccentric, with a hidden knife in his smile.

Zhu Nanjiang remembered that when they met for the first time, the other party was in their thirties, so now they are in their forties.Compared to He Tingfan, who was swollen like a steamed bun, it was not easy for him to maintain it like this.

"Fart!" After hesitating for just three seconds, Zhu Nanjiang decided not to be unnecessary polite with the other party, "You can't do anything about me? Then Dadong Zhaizi accepts it as soon as it says it will. Does this mean that you can't do anything about me?"

"The house is not my fault. The Yanquan mansion is being expanded, and two office buildings and a military depot will be added on Baoshan Road. The house is just within the range, and you can't get around it if you want to." Tian Dongbao ordered a bottle of red wine, it doesn't matter Slowly poured two cups, "I was just doing business, and I didn't mean to be against you, but the military department insisted that I make amends to you... I am wronged!"

"I know you wish I could be on the blacklist of the Japanese, it's a pain to beat the dog in the water."

"You can't say that. When you enter the new government, we still have to get along and have a warm relationship."

"How do you know that I will definitely take this job?"

"I understand you, Mr. Zhu, you are not a person who is willing to be a coward." Tian Dongbao drank his glass of wine in one gulp, and pushed the other glass to Zhu Nanjiang, "If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have sworn I recommend you to the vice-consul."

Zhu Nanjiang immediately figured out everything when he heard this remark.

He was in the French Concession, and he didn't have close contacts with the Japanese. It stands to reason that no matter how famous he was, he wouldn't be so missed.However, since the fall of the Japanese people, one after another, Japanese people have "promoted" themselves, knowing what he has done in the past few years in words.

It turned out that Tian Dongbao, the son of a bitch, was behind everything.Zhu Nanjiang suspects that Fang Dong's house on Baoshan Road is not for revenge at all, but is forcing himself to come forward!

"It's all right for you to be a traitor yourself, and you still want to drag me into the water?"

"Hush... Keep your voice down, aren't you afraid of being heard?"

"Being a slave is quite entertaining?"

"Mr. Zhu, you don't need to pretend to be chaste with me. When the Japanese didn't call in, you were still working for the French. They were all slaves, regardless of high or low." Tian Dongbao raised his eyes and said, "We can't do it for foreigners. Sooner or later, East China will be Japan. In the world of people, you have always known how to judge the situation, and you should know what to do to be wise."

Zhu Nanjiang saw that his tone was determined, and his expression and attitude were very different from those two or three years ago.At that time, although the other party was full of bad things, he still tolerated the rules in front of him, but now his words are aggressive, and his smiling face can hardly contain his ambition.

"If you have anything to say, let's talk about it. You and I have a grudge. I know that you have been looking for opportunities to bring me down for so many years. What are you going to do after you pull me into the puppet government? See me ruin my reputation and be punished by the anti-rape gang killed someone?"

"Inspector Zhu, isn't your reputation very good?"

"you……"

Tian Dongbao choked on the other party with a word, and immediately became very excited.The ground of the two of them seemed to be a battlefield without gunpowder smoke. If you retreat a little, you can take a step forward. You have been cornered before, but now you can finally fight back!
