"The Special Higher Section, the Mei Agency, and the Military Police Headquarters are privileged institutions specially established by the Empire. They can investigate anyone they want, whether internally or on each other. They can investigate at any time as long as they have suspicions."

Having said this, Jiang Yifan paused for a moment and continued:

"Just like Section Chief Tanaka and Colonel Hihara Ryosuke, they have always been suspicious of me and secretly investigating me. They can investigate anyone at any time."

“If one department is underpowered, it can always join forces with other departments, which is very convenient.”

At this point, Jiang Yifan stopped again, looked at Sato Ichiro, and seeing that Sato Ichiro was listening carefully, he continued:

"Therefore, there is no need for a joint investigation. On the contrary, setting up a joint investigation team will hinder the flexibility of the investigation. For example, the investigation cannot be carried out until everyone participates."

"For example, I told Director Li today that I will investigate No. 76, especially the Cleanup Committee. This is my duty and my right."

"But there is one point I have clearly expressed my opposition to, which is that No. 76 has no right to launch any investigation into the Special Higher Section, the Mei Agency, or the Military Police Headquarters. Because the people in No. 76 are very complicated, we must not allow them to interfere in any way with our privileged departments. Otherwise, our secrets may be leaked. This must not be allowed to happen."

After Jiang Yifan spoke with reason and evidence, Sato Ichiro looked at Kumagawa Daiki with his one eye and asked:

"What does Chief Kumagawa think?"

Li Qun also followed Sato Ichiro's gaze and looked at Kumagawa Daiki.

Kumagawa Daiki answered without even thinking:

"I also think what Shimahashi said makes sense. Besides, when Section Chief Tanaka and Colonel Hihara were here, they never asked Unit 76 to participate in investigations of other departments. I think there is no need to set up a joint investigation team."

This made Li Qun very disappointed!

Even Ichiro Sato did not expect that Daiki Kumagawa would stand with Jiang Yifan again.

He was also surprised! When Keiko Tanaka and Colonel Hihara were around, the Ume Agency and the Special Higher Police were a united front.

Now it's Daiki Kumagawa and Shinichi Shimabashi's turn, and they're together again.

The only difference is that Colonel Hihara always protected No. 76, while Colonel Kumagawa Daiki ignored No. 76.

With Jiang Yifan's objection and Xiongchuan Daihui's agreement, Sato Ichiro couldn't say anything more, so he just said:

"Yoshi! It's good that you have just discussed it. I hope you can deal heavy blows to Chinese agents in your work, like today. Especially this lighter. The sooner it is found, the better."

"Hayi!"

After hearing what Sato Ichiro said, the three of them immediately bowed and replied, then chatted for a while and left the hospital.

Jiang Yifan drove past the delicatessen, bought some roast chicken and beef, agreed to meet at the safe house in the evening, and then left in a hurry.

In the safe house, Jiang Yifan recounted the entire incident, and Xiao Yunlong listened with great interest, cheering repeatedly!

"It's a pity that Li Qun escaped again this time. I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to get close to Li Qun in the future."

Xiao Yunlong said with some regret.

"Li Qun wanted to encourage Sato Ichiro and Kumagawa Daiki to form a joint investigation team and participate in the investigation of me. I would not give him this opportunity. I raised objections in front of Commander Sato and obtained Kumagawa Daiki's consent to cancel the plan."

Jiang Yifan said with a lingering fear.

"It seems that now that Keiko Tanaka and Colonel Hihara are dead, Sato Ichiro and Li Qun are now suspecting you. You should be more careful in the future!"

Xiao Yunlong looked at Jiang Yifan and warned him with concern.

"This time it's too dangerous. If Li Qun hadn't had the opportunity to answer the phone, I really can't imagine how things would have gone."

Jiang Yifan felt scared when he thought about it.

"Okay! Now that everything is over, take a good rest these few days. After I report, if there is no urgent task, you can relax."

After Xiao Yunlong finished speaking, the two of them left the safe house.

When Xiao Yunlong returned to the safe house, he received a telegram from Ma Zhonghong, in which he cursed Shimahashi Shinichi for being an idiot and having a pig brain for letting him escape.

Damn it! Only you, Ma Zhonghong, can do that! If it wasn't for Shimahashi Shinichi saving you, how could you still be here?

Afterwards, Xiao Yunlong reported what Jiang Yifan had said to the headquarters again.

"Report! Xiao Yunlong called!"

Zhang Xiansheng walked into Dai Sheng's office and reported to him while looking at Dai Sheng standing at attention.

Dai Sheng took Xiao Yunlong's call and read it, then said:

"Although Li Qun was not killed, it was still a big blow to the Cleanup Committee, and it also protected the Poker Killer. It's a great achievement, and I will reward you 10,000 yuan!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Xiansheng answered standing at attention, but his face was full of worry. The boss asked for ten thousand yuan, but he had to beg everywhere and didn't know if he could get that much.

But the lighter was inside the enemy and it was more difficult for him than it was for himself, so he gritted his teeth and did not tell his boss about his difficulties.

"What? No money again?"

Dai Sheng looked at Zhang Xiansheng's unnatural expression and asked immediately.

"Boss! Funding is indeed difficult, but I will find a way to solve it."

Zhang Xiansheng quickly stood at attention and answered.

Upon hearing this, Dai Sheng immediately opened the drawer, took out ten large yellow croakers, pushed them in front of Zhang Xiansheng and said:

"Take it! Lighters have been instrumental in many battles. No matter how hard our lives are, we can't let them down!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Xiansheng stood at attention again and answered. Seeing that Dai Sheng had no other orders, he turned and left.

The next day, Jiang Yifan arrived at the expeditionary force headquarters and saw that the headquarters' meeting room was filled with colorful flags and looked brand new.

"General Kimura, Chief of Staff Sakata! What are you doing?"

Jiang Yifan saw that there was no one in the office. Seeing that it was very lively here, he walked over. When he saw that everyone was there, he asked curiously.

"Shimahashi! You've come just in time! We're going to hold a celebration party for you, commend you, Chief Xiongchuan, and Secretary General Li Qun, and give you awards!"

General Kimura looked at Jiang Yifan and answered with great satisfaction.

Jiang Yifan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Isn't this necessary? This is what we should do!"

"This time, we have cracked the Chinese spy case and reported it to the military. General Sun Hong Ishigaki is very happy and has ordered us to commend you and give you great praise to encourage you to create more glories!"

Chief of Staff Sakata also spoke loudly.
