My Spy Years

  Chapter 731 Heartfelt Words

  Cheng Qianfan looked at Hiroyuki Taniguchi lying on the 'mortuary bed', the expression on his face was sad, and at the same time there was a bit of mourning.

   Hiroyuki Taniguchi was shot in the neck and chest, and the appearance after the close-range shooting was terrifying.

   "I'm looking for a highly skilled makeup artist." Cheng Qianfan said in a low voice, "Teacher always attaches great importance to appearance."

  Araki Harima nodded, but did not speak.

  He is tired.

   After Miyazaki Kentaro saluted the body of the deceased, Araki Harima also respectfully stepped forward to salute and bid farewell.

   "Araki-kun, thank you." Cheng Qianfan thanked Araki Harima as a relative of the deceased.

   The two of them left the morgue, probably out of fear. There were no other people near the morgue, so the two of them naturally had no taboos, talking while walking.

   "I respect and respect the teacher, he is a very knowledgeable and charismatic elder." Cheng Qianfan said.

   "However, he has always been very strict with students." Cheng Qianfan gave Araki Harima a cigarette, and he lit a cigarette himself, taking a light puff.

   "To be honest, beatings, scolding and reprimands have become a part of my life when I am around the teacher."

   "No matter how good I do, I am very satisfied, but from the teacher, I rarely get compliments, he will still reprimand, and belittle the achievements I think are proud."

   "Perhaps because of this reason, I am actually not that close to the teacher."

   As he spoke, he glanced at Harima Araki and smiled wryly, "I also know in my heart that the teacher's strictness is good for me, but it is inevitable that I still have resentment in my heart after being beaten and scolded all day long."

"At the beginning, Kagezuo-kun invited me to stay in Shanghai to join the special high school. Although I refused at first, I still accepted the invitation later. Maybe I also subconsciously had a feeling that I didn't want to go back to Tianjin and wanted to go back to Tianjin. Stay away from the idea of ​​a teacher."

  Araki Harima glanced at his friend, and secretly smiled in his heart. He thought, my friend, I still understand you:

   Isn't it because of Ying Zuoying's salary and the good life that can be brought by pretending to be Cheng Qianfan?

  Of course, what Miyazaki-kun said should also be "heartfelt words" with emotion.

  …

"I learned the news of the teacher's death from the head of the class. I was shocked, and then I couldn't believe it." Cheng Qianfan flicked the cigarette ash, "Even when I haven't fully accepted the shock brought by the news , I actually felt a sense of relief that 'the teacher is gone, no one will beat and scold me so fiercely'."

   As he spoke, he showed a complicated expression on his face, "Then, when I confirmed the news of the death of the teacher from the head of the class, I really realized what happened."

   As he spoke, he took a drag on his cigarette and looked up at the street lights.

  Under the light, the eyes of the young and handsome 'Miyazaki Kentaro' shone with complex lights, with sadness, regret, and a sense of relief and bewilderment.

"I saw the teacher's body just now, this is the most intuitive visual impact." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "I really realized that no one will beat me, scold me, check my studies, and ask me about my recent situation like him. gone."

  He looked at Araki Harima, "After my mother passed away, the teacher is my closest person."

   As he spoke, he threw the cigarette **** on the ground without stepping on it with the tip of his shoe. His eyes were red, he was choked up, and he was speechless.

  Araki Harima noticed this detail, he knew that his friend was really very sad.

   Only when you lose, can you understand what it means to cherish.

   Listening to Miyazaki-kun's heartfelt words under grief.

  Understanding the complex teacher-student relationship that is normal in Japan between Mr. Miyazaki and Professor Hiroyuki Taniguchi.

  He can understand and can truly feel Miyazaki-kun's contradictory and sad psychology about the death of Hiroyuki Taniguchi.

  At this time, he thought of Naito Kotsuba's suspicion of Miyazaki Kentaro again, and he felt a little more disgusted with the Counselor of the Consulate General in his heart.

  …

   "Miyazaki-kun, do you know Assistant Naito from the Consulate General?" Araki Harima asked after a little hesitation.

   "Is it Mr. Imamura's assistant Naito-kun?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

   "Exactly." Araki Harima nodded.

   "Of course we know each other." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "I have known Naito-kun for more than a year, and we are good friends."

  Hearing Miyazaki Kentaro say that he and Naito Kotsuba are friends with a 'good relationship', Araki Harima shook his head and sighed inwardly.

  Although Miyazaki-kun is greedy for money, he really treats his friends with a heart-warming sincerity.

   "Miyazaki-kun." Harima Araki said, "Assistant Naito found me today, and he suspected someone."

   "What clue did Naito-kun find?" Cheng Qianfan asked eagerly with surprise in his eyes.

   Then he saw Araki Harima pointing at him.

  Cheng Qianfan showed an expression of disbelief, he pointed to himself, "Me?"

  Seeing Araki Harima nodding, Cheng Qianfan was shocked, "Naito-kun suspects me?"

  Araki Harima had a serious expression on his face, and he briefly explained to Miyazaki Kentaro why Naito Tsubasa suspected him.

   "Is Naito-kun crazy?" Cheng Qianfan showed a very angry and incomprehensible expression.

   "What? Miyazaki-kun, won't you respond to Assistant Naito's suspicion? This is the information that Assistant Naito fed back to me." Araki Harima smiled.

"Stupid Naito!" Cheng Qianfan showed a mixed expression of anger and sadness, and then gritted his teeth and scolded, "I'm explaining ass! If Araki-kun, you believe such stupid words and don't believe me, I'm blind. friend."

  Araki Harima laughed, and he handed Miyazaki Kentaro a cigarette, "Miyazaki-kun, you are always sincere to your friends, but some people really don't deserve your friendship."

   As he spoke, he patted Miyazaki Kentaro on the shoulder, "It's not worth being angry about this kind of person."

  …

   At midnight, Araki Harima returned to the super high school resident.

  He was just about to go back to the dormitory to rest, when he received a call from the section chief's office. It was Jiro Sanben calling himself, asking him to report to work.

   "Section Leader, why haven't you rested so late?" Araki Harima asked with concern.

   "The Commander of the Third Army, General Otozo Yamada, called to inquire about the investigation of Professor Taniguchi's assassination." Jiro Sanben frowned, pointing to a telegram on his desk.

   "General Yamada called personally?" Araki Harima was shocked when he heard this.

  He looked at Sanben Jiro cautiously, "Chairman, are Professor Taniguchi and General Yamada old?"

  Sanbonjiro didn't answer. In fact, he didn't figure out what kind of friendship between Yamada Otozo and Taniguchi Hiroyuki.

  He has been thinking about the resume of the commander of the Third Army of the Imperial Army just now.

  General Yamada is a native of Nagano Prefecture, and graduated from the Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy and Army University.

  General Yamada participated in the Russo-Japanese War, and the great victory over Tsarist Russia made Yamada Otozo have a very strong interest in expanding the territory for the empire.

  After the "Wickow Lake Incident", Yamada Otozo personally led the Fourth Cavalry Brigade to conquer Manchuria and made great achievements in battle.

   In the 10th year of the Showa era, in October, Otozo Yamada was transferred from the General Staff Headquarters to the Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy as the principal.

  However, after the full-scale war broke out last year, Yamada Otozo was transferred to China again, and successively served as the commander of the 12th Division of the Kwantung Army and the commander of the Third Army.

  Jiro Sanben frowned. General Yamada Otosan's resume is basically in the Manchurian Kwantung Army.

   Hiroyuki Taniguchi had some involvement with the Kwantung Army.

  In addition, Otozo Yamada was the principal of the Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy. According to what Jiro Sanben learned, many universities in the empire, including Kobe University, have long-term cooperation with the Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy and the Imperial Army University.

  Jiro Sanben let out a muffled snort.

   It is because the Consulate General did not protect Hiroyuki Taniguchi, and the Super High School was only responsible for investigating the case. If there is a need for accountability, the Consulate General should be most responsible for Hiroyuki Taniguchi's death.

   Originally, Sanben Jiro didn't have much pressure on this case, but this telegram from Yamada Otozo changed everything.

  …

   "Professor Taniguchi is a famous scholar in the empire. Regarding his unfortunate assassination, we must find out the truth." Sanben Jiro did not answer Araki Harima's question, but said with a serious expression.

   "Hai."

   "Tell me about the progress of the investigation." Sanben Jiro said in a deep voice.

   "The subordinates first interrogated Professor Taniguchi's entourage and Sakamoto Yoshino, a staff member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who was in charge of receiving Professor Taniguchi and his party..." Araki Harima described his interrogation process in detail.

  Jiro Sanben would occasionally interrupt Araki Harima's report and ask questions about a certain detail.

   "Later Miyazaki-kun came to the guest house, and he also participated in the investigation and interrogation." Araki Harima said.

  He briefly described the relevant situation, and then, Araki Harima glanced at Jiro Sanben, and said, "Miyazaki-kun requests to interrogate Shoji Hachime alone for the sake of protecting Professor Taniguchi's face."

   "You agree?"

"Yes." Araki Harima said, and then he took out the statement he obtained by arranging his subordinates to interrogate Hachime Shoji and handed it to Sanben Jiro, "The section chief, according to Hachime Shoji's account, and Miyazaki-kun later told me The situation is basically the same.”

   "So, you suspect that Hiroyuki Taniguchi was killed because of emotional entanglements?" Sanben Jiro asked while reading the confession.

   "This is just a direction of suspicion." Harima Araki said, "My opinion is similar to that of Miyazaki-kun. This possibility cannot be ruled out. At least there are some doubts about Shoji Hachime and Goichi Nakatani."

   "Miyazaki knows Hiroyuki Taniguchi." Sanmoto Jiro nodded, "According to what he said, Professor Taniguchi's strange habit is not the first time, and it may indeed bring some hidden dangers."

As he said, he looked at Harima Araki, "Araki, based on your trust in Miyazaki, you may have asked Miyazaki to interrogate Shoji Hachime alone out of disciplinary requirements, and then took some time to ask Shoji Hachime later, and It’s not like this, immediately secretly and carefully interrogated Hachime Shoji, and also made a special confession record.”

  Jiro Sanben had a serious expression, "What happened? Or did you become suspicious of Kentaro Miyazaki?"

  …

   "What do you think about Kotsu Naito's suspicion of Miyazaki?" Sanben Jiro asked after listening to Araki Harima's report on Kotsu Naito's secret finding of him for feedback.

   "Naito Kotsuba is Mr. Changtomo's nephew." Araki Harima said, "Mr. Changtomo was with Miyazaki-kun when he was assassinated. Mr. Changtomo was killed, but Miyazaki-kun survived."

  He looked at Sanben Jiro, and concluded, "The subordinates think that Kotsu Naito should have vented his anger on Miyazaki-kun because of the death of Mr. Nagatomo Satsuo."

   "What I need is not your subjective assumption." Jiro Sanben shook his head, "Talk about your specific analysis, and maintain an objective attitude."

   "Hay." Araki Harima said.

  He didn't speak immediately, but thought for a while, and continued after considering the words, "When Mr. Changyou was assassinated, Miyazaki-kun was also shot."

   "Lu Fei was the commander of this assassination operation, and after joining the empire, Lu Fei also explained this operation."

   "According to what Lu Fei said, their goal is Mr. Changyou Cunnan. For 'Cheng Qianfan', they regard him as the second goal, just because from Chongqing's point of view, Cheng Qianfan is close to the empire."

   "It was Lu Fei's temporary decision to shoot Cheng Qianfan." Said Sanben Jiro, who had carefully read the relevant files.

   "Yes, Section Chief." Araki Harima nodded, "But, at least this shows the attitude of Shanghai Railway Station towards Cheng Qianfan. They want to kill him."

   After a pause, Araki Harima continued, "Of course, it is of little significance to discuss the motivation of Cheng Qianfan in Shanghai Station, because they don't know that Cheng Qianfan is actually Miyazaki-kun pretending to be."

  He said with a serious expression, "Section Chief, the reason why I think that Naito Kotsuba's suspicion of Miyazaki-kun has no evidence, it's more like venting anger, is based on a fact."

   "Continue." Sanben Jiro nodded.

   "Before Miyazaki-kun was suddenly accepted by me from Yandeli to take a special high-level class that day, he didn't even know that Mr. Changyou came to Shanghai. That was the first time the two met."

   "Then, after their master and apprentice reunited after a long absence, Mr. Miyazaki sent Mr. Nagatomo back to the police hospital. They were shot at the entrance of the hospital."

   "According to our investigation at the time, Miyazaki-kun and Mr. Changtomo left in the car together. The two have been together. Even if Miyazaki-kun wanted to murder Mr. Changtomo, he had no time and opportunity to instigate the assassination."

   "Objectively speaking, Miyazaki-kun was shot in the attack at that time, so it should be regarded as being implicated by Mr. Nagatomo." Araki Harima said with a frown.

  …

   Cheng Qianfan did not go home, he arrived at the mansion of Imamura Heutaro late at night.

  Heitaro Imamura first asked Kentaro Miyazaki about his physical condition with concern, expressing concern about the attack on his beloved disciple.

   Subsequently, Imamura Heitaro expressed his condolences and condolences to Miyazaki Kentaro for the assassination and death of Hiroyuki Taniguchi.

  Afterwards, Imamura Heutaro asked in detail about the investigation progress of Hiroyuki Taniguchi's assassination.

  Watching Kentaro Miyazaki describe the chaotic emotional entanglement between Hiroyuki Taniguchi, the female student Haruko and her fiancé with a sad and slightly embarrassing expression, Heitaro Imamura shook his head.

   Right at this moment, the phone on the desk in Imamura Heutaro's study rang.

   "I am Heutaro Imamura."

   "Your Excellency the Consul General." Heutaro Imamura stood up and said respectfully.

   "Hai."

   "Hai."

  Hung up the phone, Imamura Hyoutaro frowned, and then looked at Miyazaki Kentaro with a complicated expression.
