Komatsubara also received a telegram from the expeditionary army headquarters and came to General Ishigaki's office.

General Ishigaki was on the phone, and after Ishigaki Sunhong finished his call, Komatsubara handed Kurokawa Masanori's telegram to Ishigaki Sunhong.

"What is Kurokawa Masanori afraid of?"

Ishigaki Sun Hong asked after reading the telegram.

"I guess he's afraid that Shimahashi Shinichi will reject him!"

Komatsubara also answered truthfully.

"Strange! Everyone else is trying to climb up, how could Shimabashi Shinichi refuse?"

"The apparent reason should be that he does not belong to the military headquarters, but the real reason is that he knows very well that the situation in Shanghai is difficult to control.

This is different from his agreement to concurrently serve as the Chief of the Special Affairs Section of the Expeditionary Forces Headquarters. After all, there is General Kurokawa above the Chief of the Special Affairs Section. The Commander of the Military Police Headquarters is the first person in charge. "

Komatsubara also answered truthfully.

"That's why Kurokawa Masanori asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to jointly issue an order to block all of Shimabashi Shinichi's escape routes in advance."

"Why do I feel like this is a big gamble? Are we sure we can win?"

Ishigaki Sunhong looked at Komatsubara with sharp eyes and asked.

"Since it's a gamble, how can you be 100% sure?"

Komatsubara also replied.

"You mean our chance of winning is only fifty percent?"

Ishigaki Sun Hong asked again with a look of surprise.

In fact, he already knew the answer, but he still looked at Vice Minister Komatsu, trying to get a different answer from him. He would not care even if it was a lie.

However, Komatsubara's answer was still the answer he knew:

"This is a real gamble! Knowing clearly that he might be a gaslighter, they still handed over the highest official in Shanghai to him without any doubt about him, just to see what he could do with Shanghai.

If I can prove him through this method, I think all the losses are worth it.

And our bet is that Shanghai will get better.”

"In that case, even if we fail, as long as we can prove that Shimahashi Shinichi is the lighter, we are still the winners, but the price is a bit high, or the loss is heavy."

Ishigaki Sunhong's tone finally became firm.

"This is exactly what I intended. No matter from which angle you look at it, we are the final winners."

Deputy Minister Komatsu seemed to be understood and felt relieved.

"Yoshi! Call Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato and come over!"

Chief Ishigaki finally gave the order.

"Hayi!"

Komatsubara also responded and called Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato.

"Hahaha! Chief Ishigaki, Vice Chief Komatsu, you two are really calculating. Our Ministry of Internal Affairs hasn't even been abolished yet, and you've already started poaching my people."

Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato came to Chief Ishigaki's office and sat down. After hearing Vice Minister Komatsu's plan, he laughed happily and said.

After laughing, Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato spoke again:

"But don't you know that Shimahashi Shinichi is a very controversial person? In other words, aren't you afraid that he's a gaslighter?"

"But you clearly knew there were many suspicious points about him, so why did you appoint him as the head of the Special High Section?"

Komatsubara took the opportunity to look at Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato and asked back.

"Hahahaha! Good question! If I tell you I'm making a big bet, would you believe me?"

After hearing Komatsubara's question, Hosaki Yamato laughed again and answered bluntly.

"Are you... telling the truth?"

Both Vice Minister Komatsu and Chief Ishigaki showed surprise on their faces.

"But I'm not going to bet everything on it. After all, I've done two injection screenings on Shimahashi Shinichi, and everyone has seen what he did before. I also left a stalker next to him, so I'm going to bet three-tenths and control and monitor seven-tenths."

Deputy Minister Hosaki Yamato looked at Chief Minister Ishigaki and Deputy Minister Komatsu and spoke without hiding anything.

This made the two of them look surprised again.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Don't you believe it?"

Hosaki Yamato asked as he looked at the two people's strange looks.

"Then why have we never heard of you interrogating or suspecting Shinichi Shimahashi?"

Chief Ishigaki asked in disbelief.

"I remember that Ichiro Sato once said something very useful, which is to trust people when you employ them, and not to employ people you doubt. So before, under the leadership of Ichiro Sato, Shanghai was basically relatively stable and people were able to trust each other.

But later, after Sato Ichiro lost an eye, he actually forgot this wise saying and walked into a dead end of doubt, which led to Shanghai becoming more and more chaotic, and even to the point where each of them acted on their own and became disunited.

After Henri Yuise left, he had two obvious flaws. The first was that he was not down-to-earth and had no understanding of the situation in Shanghai. The second was that there was a crisis of mutual trust, which is why there were so many accidents in Shanghai. "

Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato spoke the truth.

"You...know so much information, why don't you take the initiative to communicate with us?"

Hosaki Yamato suddenly stood up, looked at Chief Ishigaki and asked:

"Can you believe me when I tell you this? Even if you tell me the truth now, do you really believe Shimahashi Shinichi?

Aren't you the same as Keiko Tanaka at the beginning, Ichiro Sato later, Yui Henri who just passed away, and Masanori Kurokawa now, who all want to use someone but don't dare to trust him 100%?"

Chief Ishigaki and Komatsubara fell silent.

It's really a contradiction.

"Then Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato, can you tell me if Shimabashi Shinichi is appointed as the commander of the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters this time, can the situation in Shanghai be brought under control?"

Ishigaki Sunhong looked at Hosaki Yamato and asked.

"Do you think Shimahashi Shinichi is a god? Why can't Bian Liwei control Shanghai, but Jiang Yifan can?"

Deputy Minister Hosaki Yamato suddenly turned around, looked at Ishigaki Sunhong and asked again.

"This……"

Chief Ishigaki was speechless.

"If you still have doubts about him, I advise you to give up your decision. Not only will it not have any good results, it will also be unfair to Shimahashi Shinichi.

After all, Shinichi Shimabashi is not a savior, he can only do his best and leave the rest to fate. I always believe that as long as he is loyal to his duties and spares no effort, he will be blameless regardless of whether the actual situation in Shanghai changes.

Mr. Ishigaki, you are now the chief of the military headquarters. Tell me the truth. We have been at war with China for such a long time. Are you 100% sure that we can defeat China? "

Deputy Minister Hosaki Yamato looked at Chief Ishigaki again and asked sharply.

"Yoshi! I understand your way of employing people! Then how about we jointly issue the appointment letter?"

Chief Ishigaki looked at Vice Minister Hosaki Yamato and asked sincerely.
