As soon as Jiang Yifan left, Osawa Takao and Fujii Muye came out of the house and said in confusion:

"Does this Shimahashi Shinichi have a deeper relationship with Boss Xiao?"

Ida Jōji answered casually: "Maybe Shimahashi Shinichi and Boss Xiao don't have any special relationship at all, maybe we are too suspicious. Otherwise, why would he come to me to ask about Boss Xiao's news?"

"Is this kid acting?" asked Osawa Takao with a frown.

"Hey! He doesn't look serious, does he?" Fujii Muye thought for a moment and answered.

Jiang Yifan drove directly to the Military Police Headquarters, Sato Ichiro's office. Kumagawa Daiki happened to be there, so he took the initiative to greet Kumagawa Daiki:

"Kumakawa-kun! Long time no see! I haven't been to No. 76 during this period. Is there anything going on with the Cleanup Committee?"

Xiongchuan Dahui also looked at Jiang Yifan happily and answered truthfully:

"It's alright! Now all the work has been put on track. We are just collecting grain and collecting payments step by step. As for the underground party guerrillas, the fighting is so intense now that no one knows where they are hiding. There is no news about them!"

"I'm glad you're alright!"

Jiang Yifan replied, then turned to look at Sato Ichiro and asked:

"Report to Commander Sato! I just came from Laoliu Delicatessen, and there is still no news from Boss Xiao. What's going on? Is there something wrong with this Boss Xiao?"

Hearing Jiang Yifan's words, Xiongchuan Dahui immediately asked: "What happened to the delicatessen owner?"

So Jiang Yifan recounted the entire incident in detail.

From the expression of Xiongchuan Dahui, Jiang Yifan could tell that Xiongchuan Dahui was not aware of this matter.

I didn't expect that Ichiro Sato would actually follow and investigate me alone. It seems that he won't give up until he gets evidence that I am the lighter.

After listening to this, Kumagawa Daiki said casually: "Isn't this normal? What else is there to investigate?"

"I don't know either. This is Commander Sato's order. I'm here to report."

Jiang Yifan looked at Daiki Kumagawa and kicked the balloon to Ichiro Sato.

He thought that if Sato Ichiro continued to press on like this, something would happen sooner or later, so he had to find a way to make Sato Ichiro disappear from this world.

"It was a normal thing, but due to the sudden disappearance of Boss Xiao, it became abnormal. I feel that Boss Xiao must still be in Shanghai, so we must find a way to find him."

Sato Ichiro looked at Kumagawa Daiki and answered in a tough tone.

"Why do we have to find him?" Jiang Yifan asked knowingly.

At this time, Daiki Kumagawa had already deeply understood what Ichiro Sato meant, so he stopped asking questions.

"Because I think that as long as we can find Boss Xiao, we might be able to find the lighter we have been looking for for a long time."

Sato Ichiro answered without any disguise, even as if he was going to reveal his cards.

This made Daiki Kumagawa immediately feel a strong smell of gunpowder, and it seemed that the situation had reached a point of tension.

"Since you have this premonition, Commander Sato, why didn't you order the arrest of the person in advance? It's been so many days since the incident, why didn't you order martial law throughout the city and search for Boss Xiao? Isn't this a waste of time?"

Jiang Yifan pressed again.

"I was afraid that the lighter would be scared away, so I ordered a secret investigation."

Sato Ichiro answered without flinching.

"Haha! Commander Sato! As the highest commander in Shanghai, you actually sent out the Special High Section to conduct such a serious matter as the search and investigation of the lighter suspect. I am deeply puzzled.

Moreover, if the arrest fails, our Special High Section will not bear any responsibility! I wish Commander Sato to catch the lighter and his accomplices as soon as possible. I will take my leave! I reserve the right to report the matter to the Ministry of Internal Affairs truthfully! Farewell! "

Jiang Yifan finished speaking and turned to leave, but was stopped by Xiong Chuan:

"Shimahashi-kun! Let's talk it over! There must be some misunderstanding here! Don't get carried away, calm down! Calm down!"

Even Ichiro Sato never expected that Jiang Yifan would give him a warning!

He even dared to say that he would file a complaint with the Ministry of Internal Affairs!

Isn't this going to be a big deal? In the past, Keiko Tanaka and Ryosuke Hihara investigated him so wildly, and I never saw him resist so much. How come he is in front of me, Sato Ichiro, now? Isn't it okay to investigate him?

It’s simply unreasonable!

"Calm down? Kumakawa-kun! I've been calm enough about this matter. At the beginning, he not only ordered Li Qun to secretly investigate me, but now he has sent Captain Osawa Takao and Guard Fujii Muye to investigate me. Did I say that?"

Jiang Yifan looked at Sato Ichiro, then looked at Kumagawa Daiki and continued:

"Just last night, our Special High Section Action Team had some food on the street. I asked the team to go back and rest while I went to Huitong Department Store to buy some daily necessities for the Expeditionary Force Headquarters.

I didn't expect that the commander would actually send Osawa Takao and Fujii Muye with a dozen people to search the entire building and set up a large net around my car. Even after I returned to the expeditionary force headquarters, Commander Sato was still worried and called General Kurokawa's office to ask if I was there.

I can tolerate all this because it is the commander's right!"

At this point, Jiang Yifan paused again, and then continued with full rage, full of complaints:

"But what I can't stand is that I don't care who the commander suspects is the lighter. After discovering someone who is related to the lighter, he actually lets people escape? Isn't this a serious dereliction of duty?

Since you knew that Boss Xiao was related to the lighter, why didn't you arrest him and interrogate him? Are you afraid that after the interrogation, you will find out that the lighter is not mine, but someone else's?

Commander, do you really want me to be the lighter?"

Listening to Jiang Yifan's machine-gun-like outburst, Daiki Kumagawa was both surprised and dumbfounded. This was the beginning of a falling out with Ichiro Sato!

"Shut up! You are disrespectful to your elders! You are committing treason!" After hearing Jiang Yifan's outburst, Sato Ichiro almost lost his mind. He slammed the table and shouted angrily.

"Disrespect for elders? Did I feed all my 108 big yellow croakers to the dogs? Insubordination? Although I am the chief of the Special High Section now, please don't forget that I am also the chief of the Special Service Section of the Expeditionary Force Headquarters. This is appointed by the military headquarters. In terms of rank, we are equal. How can this be insubordination?"
