“Why were no enemy aircraft spotted?

Why didn't the planes on our aircraft carrier take off to intercept?

All of this is caused by the navy's self-willed behavior. Why should we, the people who can't even get close to the naval base, be blamed?

However, Major General Tanino did not address the fundamental problem but kept trying to shift the blame to others. Does he deserve the title of Shanghai Special Envoy?

Is he worthy of the mission entrusted to him by the Empire of Japan? "

Jiang Yifan was like a nagging woman, venting her dissatisfaction incessantly.

These words suddenly brightened everyone's eyes, as if they had been enlightened. It turned out that the crux of the problem lies with the Marine Corps, with Major General Milin!

Major General Tanino, in particular, felt that Shinichi Shimahashi was swinging his big hands, slapping him left and right again and again.

After hearing this, Keiko Tanaka, Ryosuke Hihara, and Li Qun all looked extremely angry and ashamed. How come Shinichi Shimahashi didn't see through such an obvious problem?

They wished they could find a hole to crawl into to avoid being embarrassed in front of these three senior officials.

They also reached a consensus that they must fight to the death with Tanino and that Tanino must bear the consequences of the Shanghai incident.

Upon hearing this, Ichiro Sato couldn't help but give Jiang Yifan a big thumbs up in his heart.

What a way of thinking and what a judgement! What a talent!

After hearing this, Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato said with a peaceful expression:

"Alright! Inoue Matsushita-kun! Let's stop here! The situation is clear now, and I suggest we proceed to the next step."

Inoue Matsushita heard this and said with satisfaction:

"Well! This kid is incredible! His wit is quick and every sentence is on point. He finally uncovered a fundamental problem that has been plaguing our Great Japanese Empire. That is, the discord between the army and the navy is the most fundamental cause of the Shanghai Incident.

What lighter? That's all bullshit. It's just an excuse to pass the buck."

"That makes sense! You know what, Shimahashi Shinichi is really smart. With just a few words, he made the confusing things clear to the world. If you don't cherish such a good talent, why don't you transfer him to our Ministry of Foreign Affairs?"

Deputy Minister Karasawa looked at Deputy Minister Hosaki Yamato and spoke seriously.

"Are you trying to poach people right in front of them like this?" Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato replied with a smile on his face.

As if this was the highest reward for him.

"Someone, come! Send Shimahashi Shinichi to the best hospital for recuperation and treatment immediately! Take good care of him, and make no mistakes."

Deputy Commander Hosaki Yamato shouted an order.

"Hayi!"

After Waiike Mitsuki, Nakatake Tetsuya, and Wang Ziliang responded, they carefully took Jiang Yifan down from the rack and walked out of the interrogation room cautiously as if they were supporting a priceless treasure.

Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato, General Inoue, and Vice Minister Karasawa briefly touched their heads. Then, Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato turned to look at Major General Tanino, Ichiro Sato, Keiko Tanaka, Ryosuke Hihara, and Li Qun, and asked loudly:

"Now, do you still think that Shimahashi Shinichi is the lighter?"

Hearing Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato's questioning, the five of them lowered their heads silently.

Seeing that the five people were silent, Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato once again asked sternly:

"General Inoue Matsushita's potion injection experiment has fully proved that Shimahashi Shinichi is not a lighter at all. Moreover, under the effect of the potion injection, he analyzed the root cause of the Shanghai incident and avoided the possibility of similar incidents happening again for the Empire of Japan. He has invisibly made a great contribution to the empire!"

"And what about you? Not only did you fail to find the root cause of the Shanghai Incident, but you also tried to shirk responsibility and disregard the facts. You tried to force a confession through torture and put a lighter hat on Shinichi Shimabashi to take the blame for you. Where is your loyalty to the Empire of Japan? Where is your loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor?"

After Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato finished speaking, the interrogation room fell into silence!

"Are you all mute? Speak?" Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato looked at the five people and shouted angrily.

Major General Taneno knew that he would not be able to pass the test if he did not speak. He thought for a moment, organized his words, and then answered with a stiff upper lip:

"Report to the Vice Minister! Seizing the lighter was an order from the Army Headquarters, Lieutenant General Takeyama, and I had to follow the order."

"Baka! Lieutenant General Takeyama asked you to catch the lighter, but did he tell you to catch Shinichi Shimabashi?" Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato looked at Tanino and cursed loudly in anger.

Major General Tanino was speechless again and had no words to say.

"And you! Chief Tanaka! Why didn't you report the arrest and interrogation of Shinichi Shimahashi to the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately? Isn't Shinichi Shimahashi the deputy chief of the Special High Technology Section? Isn't he one of your subordinates?"

Deputy Minister Hosaki Yamato turned around and directed his anger toward Tanaka Keiko again.

"Report to the Vice Minister! This is the order from Major General Tanino. Plus, I have always suspected that Shimahashi Shinichi is the lighter, so I also want to confirm through interrogation whether he is the lighter or not. So I didn't report it!"

Keiko Tanaka answered truthfully to Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato.

"Baka! Even if it's an interrogation, it's our internal interrogation. What right do you have to let the military interrogate the staff of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

Deputy Minister Hosaki Yamato pointed at Tanaka Keiko's nose again and cursed angrily.

"Ha Yi! Keiko knows her mistake, please ask Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato to punish her!" Tanaka Keiko stood at attention and bowed to Hosaki Yamato again and replied.

"Look at what has happened to Shanghai under your leadership? Military plans were stolen, naval ammunition depots were bombed, planes were stolen, and the Shanghai Fleet was destroyed. With this series of events happening, shouldn't you reflect on yourselves?"

Every word uttered by Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato was like a loud slap in the face of the five people.

"Especially you, Major General Taneno. As the special envoy of Shanghai, you shoulder the important task of maintaining stability in Shanghai. When something happened, instead of trying your best to find out the truth to prevent similar incidents from happening again, you led them to shirk responsibility. You said, "Sending you to the military court, do you think it's unfair to you?"

Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato turned around and pointed the finger at Major General Tanino again, questioning him harshly.

Upon hearing this, Major General Tanino couldn't help but shudder all over!

He knew he was finished!

But no matter what, even if I die, I must not be brought to a military court!

He didn't want to be sentenced by a military court or even executed by firing squad, and die with the guilt forever borne by his shoulders.

Thinking of this, Major General Tanino made up his mind, looked at Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato, Inoue Matsushita, and Vice Minister Karasawa, stood at attention and bowed, and said:

"Three officers! Gu Ye knows I was wrong. First, I didn't find the root cause of the Shanghai incident...
