"Yoshi! That's a good question!"

When Sato Ichiro heard Kumagawa Daiki's question, he couldn't help but praise him and continued:

“Can you answer this question?”

Kumagawa Daiki looked at Ito Ichiro and answered without hesitation:

"Why can't I answer this? This means that the lighter is most likely hidden in the Military Police Headquarters or inside No. 76. And it is precisely because Shimahashi Shinichi cut off all contact with No. 76 and the Military Police Headquarters that the lighter did not get the relevant information and Chief of Staff Sakata was safe. Can't this matter be explained in this way?"

Hearing this, Sato Ichiro couldn't help but turn over and looked at Kumagawa Daiki again and said:

"Yoshi! That's why I agreed to Li Qun's request and set up a joint investigation team!"

Hearing this, Xiongchuan was immediately confused. Was there something wrong with Sato Ichiro's brain? He had explained it for a long time, but he seemed to not understand it at all. It was just a little puzzling.

Seeing that Kumagawa didn't understand what he meant, Sato Ichiro said again:

"You didn't understand what I meant. In fact, my meaning is very simple. In order to find out the traitor lighter as soon as possible, whether it is the Special High Section, the Ume Agency, or No. 76, as long as there is suspicion, they have the right to take all means to conduct mutual follow-up investigations.

But in order to prevent extreme behavior like Shinichi Shimahashi from happening again, we set up a joint investigation team.

When the person under investigation obstructs the investigation, we can show the sign of the joint investigation team and force the person under investigation to obey and cooperate with the investigation. This is what I really mean. "

This time, Kumagawa Daiki finally realized:

"So, you mean that the four departments, the Special High Section, the Mei Agency, No. 76, and the Yuancheng Headquarters, can not only conduct self-inspections, but also mutual inspections. No one may prevent the investigation for any reason or excuse. Okay! Now I understand, and I firmly support it!"

At this time, Sato Ichiro secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but secretly complained in his heart, how strenuous! If it was Shimahashi Shinichi, he would have understood what he meant long ago.

"Okay then! I'll get ready right away." Kumagawa Daiki said, and was about to get up and say goodbye. Sato Ichiro spoke again:

"Don't worry! When you have a chance, discuss it with Shimahashi Shinichi, and then hold a meeting to decide on the participants! It's best to wait until after the clean-up meeting."

After hearing this, Kumagawa Daiki immediately agreed and said, "Okay! Let's do as the commander wishes. You should take good care of your injuries. I'll take my leave."

After saying this, Daiki Kumagawa turned and left.

"Shimahashi-kun! What's going on with this Li Qun? Why hasn't he called us yet to let us know when we're going to attend the meeting?"

The next morning, after breakfast, Jiang Yifan drove to the office of the expeditionary force headquarters. Chief of Staff Sakata looked at Jiang Yifan and complained.

"Shanghai is a large area, and it will take some time for the participants to arrive at the Shanghai International Guesthouse. There is no rush. We can just wait for Notice No. 76."

Jiang Yifan explained patiently.

"Chief Sakata's safety is in my hands, Shimahashi-kun!"

General Kimura looked at Jiang Yifan and spoke in a serious tone.

"Please rest assured, General Kimura! As long as Shimahashi Shinichi is here, there will be Chief of Staff Sakata. Even if Shimahashi Shinichi is gone, I will ensure the safety of Chief of Staff Sakata!"

Jiang Yifan looked at General Kimura, and answered confidently.

"Wow! Shimahashi-kun, the pillar of the Great Japanese Empire!" Chief of Staff Sakata looked very happy when he heard this, and praised Jiang Yifan repeatedly.

Jiang Yifan thought, if you want to act well, you have to do it well. Knowing that the Japanese are not in danger, why not pretend?

Just then, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.

"Jingle Bell!"

Jiang Yifan took a step forward, picked up the phone and asked:

"Hey!"

"Shimahashi-kun? I'm Li Qun. I thought about it all night yesterday. For safety reasons, I decided to hold this meeting in Conference Room 76. General Kimura and Chief of Staff Sakata, please move to Room 76. I will welcome you all at the gate."

Li Qun spoke in a gentle voice on the phone.

Hearing this, Jiang Yifan couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Old fox! The meeting is about to start, and he suddenly changed the meeting address. This is unexpected."

Could it be that the image of Li Qun, Kumakawa Daiki, and Sato Ichiro together in my mind is the result of their discussion?

Are these three people going to form a united front to deal with me again?

"Okay! I got it! I will report to General Kimura immediately!" Jiang Yifan said this and hung up the phone.

"Who's calling?" Chief of Staff Sakata asked Jiang Yifan.

"It was Li Qun who called to inform us that for safety reasons, the meeting address has been changed from the International Guest House to Conference Room 76. He asked us to go there now and he will welcome us at the gate of Room 76. Excuse me, General Kimura, are you still going now?"

Jiang Yifan looked at General Kimura and asked for his opinion.

"The question is, how about safety?" Chief of Staff Sakata looked at Jiang Yifan and asked worriedly.

"Comparatively speaking, No. 76 is much safer than the International Guest House. However, since No. 76 has just been expanded, the personnel inside are very mixed. This is also a security risk. No one can guarantee that there are no problems among the newly recruited personnel. Therefore, for the sake of safety, I do not recommend that General Kimura attend this meeting."

Jiang Yifan looked at General Kimura and Chief of Staff Sakata and spoke with reason and evidence.

Hearing this, Chief of Staff Sakata looked at General Kimura and said:

"General Kimura, then we should adopt Shimahashi-kun's suggestion and stay at the headquarters. The headquarters has just been established and we cannot allow any mistakes to occur. What do you think?"

General Kimura nodded and said:

"Okay! Then I'll have to trouble the Chief of Staff and Section Chief Shimabashi today."

"For the sake of the Great Japanese Empire, everything should be done." Jiang Yifan looked at General Kimura and sold another dog-skin plaster to express his sincerity.

"Yoshi! I wish you two a safe journey! I'll be waiting for your safe return!"

General Kimura looked at the two of them and said.

Jiang Yifan and Chief of Staff Sakata drove to No. 76. Sure enough, the door of No. 76 was open. Li Qun was standing at the gate, watching Jiang Yifan's car approaching.
