Spy Wars: I am the Captain of the Military Police

The first half of the telegram introduced the combat situation of the Kwantung Army, while the second half contained some words that looked like greetings, saying that Zhou Zhengqing was injured this time and that Goro Nakamura was unable to visit him due to trivial matters, and he apologized for this.

But Zhou Zhengqing was not concerned about this. His eyes stopped on the last sentence.

"What Master Yingqi is asking about is complicated. Please wait for me to go there in person and discuss it in detail."

Zhou Zhengqing frowned and read the last sentence over and over again.

He asked Goro Nakamura one question, which was why the Mantetsu Railway was chasing Minami Kumiko!

After a detailed investigation by Reiko's people, they discovered that there were two groups of people who really wanted to kill Minami Kumiko. One group was sent by Hideki Tojo, but they stopped after failing once.

The people who took action the last few times were actually people from the Manchuria Railway Investigation Headquarters, who came from Xinjing, and the fake Kamikawatani Jiro also died at the hands of the Manchuria Railway people.

This made Zhou Zhengqing a little confused. One was the Special High Section and the other was the Manchurian Railway Investigation Headquarters. Both were Japanese intelligence agencies. Was there a conflict? Was it time to kill someone?

So Zhou Zhengqing thought of Goro Nakamura, the director of the Manchuria Railway's Xinjing Investigation Headquarters. He must know the situation.

Sure enough, from what Goro Nakamura said, it can be seen that Goro Nakamura is absolutely clear about it, and when Zhou Zhengqing just asked this question, Goro Nakamura expressed his willingness to come to Harbin in person.

You know, when Zhou Zhengqing was injured, the president of Mantetsu came to visit him, but Goro Nakamura, who had some friendship with him, didn't come. It can be seen that Goro Nakamura really couldn't leave.

But now, I just asked about Minamida Kumiko's matter, and he said he would come over the first time. This means that Minamida Kumiko's matter is not that simple.

As for why Hideki Tojo sent people to kill Kumiko Minami, Zhou Zhengqing had already asked about it. They just wanted to help the Takazaki family get rid of a woman they disliked, and they had no other purpose.

Moreover, after the Emperor announced his engagement to Yuko, he stopped.

Seeing Zhou Zhengqing holding the telegram for a long time without moving, Nakamura Shunsuke hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "Captain?"

"Oh, I'm thinking about something else. There's nothing for you to do here. You should go and do other things first. Remember the ideological class for new recruits. You must keep a close eye on them for me. If you find anyone who is "unsociable", just make a record and send it to me." Zhou Zhengqing was called back to his senses by Shunsuke Nakamura. He explained and then told Shunsuke Nakamura to do his job.

But Nakamura Shunsuke didn't rush to leave, but said: "Captain, I have something to report here."

"what's up?"

"It's like this. The Port Arthur Gendarmerie Headquarters sent an official letter saying that Itai Yudai provided important intelligence to the empire and they plan to promote his military rank. They would like to seek your opinion." Nakamura Shunsuke said as he took out another telegram from his briefcase.

"This is a good thing. Just reply to them directly that I agree. I won't read the telegram. Just show it to Itai Yudai." The information sent by Itai Yudai this time helped him a lot. Zhou Zhengqing was happy to see that he could be promoted in military rank.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Zhou Zhengqing noticed that Nakamura Shunsuke seemed to be hesitant to talk, so he asked.

"Ah, that's right, Captain. I heard from Itai Yudai that the intelligence was given to him by Xu Sang. In this official letter, the Military Police Headquarters also mentioned Xu Sang, saying that they would give Xu Sang 10,000 yen as a reward for collecting intelligence. They also said that they would apply to the Manchukuo government for a medal for Xu Sang as a commendation. Look at this..." Nakamura Shunsuke said, looking a little hesitant, and looked up at Zhou Zhengqing carefully.

"Mr. Nakamura, just tell me whatever you want to say. You are my vice-captain. We are partners at work and friends in private. You don't have to be shy about anything." Zhou Zhengqing said with a smile.

Friend! The captain told someone that he was his friend! Nakamura Shunsuke was ecstatic. What was the captain's identity? What was his own identity!

Although I don’t know if the captain was just saying it casually, it’s very exciting to hear it in my ears!

"Captain, I don't deserve to be called a friend. It's my great honor to be under your command and obey your orders." Nakamura Shunsuke was happy and said nice words to please Zhou Zhengqing.

"Okay, if I say you are a friend, then you are a friend. Just say whatever you think. Don't always think about flattering me. Getting things done is more useful than anything else." Zhou Zhengqing frowned and spoke in a tone that anyone could see was fake sternness.

"Hey, the captain is telling you a lesson." Nakamura Shunsuke stood at attention as if he was being reprimanded, and then continued, "I think the money is secondary. The main thing is that I cannot apply for this medal."

"Oh, why?" Zhou Zhengqing was actually not very willing for Xu Zhongyi to receive any medal, and was just thinking about how to help Xu Zhongyi refuse it, but at this time Nakamura Shunsuke actually seemed to object, so Zhou Zhengqing wanted to listen.

"Captain, Xu Sang runs a trading company, and a lot of his business is in the interior of China. If the Military Police Headquarters really applies for a Manchukuo medal for Xu Sang, then Manchukuo might even take photos of him and publicize it in newspapers. Wouldn't that harm Xu Sang?

Even if they didn't tell anyone that Xu Sang received the medal for collecting intelligence, the fact that he received the medal of Manchukuo would probably be unacceptable to the Nanjing government of China.

How will Xu Sang be able to do business inside the Great Wall then?

If Xu Sang can't go inside the country, then our gendarmerie will lose all its dividends!

So I think it's better not to apply for medals, what do you think? " Nakamura Shunsuke said all his thoughts.

Zhou Zhengqing showed a strange smile, looked at Nakamura Shunsuke, and thought to himself: "I don't know if it was the gift Xu Zhongyi gave to this guy that worked, or if it was the fact that Xu Zhongyi could bring dividends to the gendarmerie that influenced Nakamura Shunsuke. Anyway, what Nakamura Shunsuke said now is really all for Xu Zhongyi's consideration."

"Well, I think what you said makes sense. How about this, the 10,000 yuan reward..." Zhou Zhengqing paused and continued, "Send the money to Xu Sang, and help him reject the medal. If the headquarters asks, just say it was my idea."

"Hi!" Nakamura Shunsuke agreed, but he was wondering why the captain really wanted to give the bonus to Xu Zhongyi.

What he didn't know was that Zhou Zhengqing had this idea originally, but he felt that ten thousand yuan was too little and there was no need to take it all, so he simply gave it to Xu Zhongyi. After all, the other party had contributed hundreds of thousands of US dollars to him in total.

After waiting for a while, Zhou Zhengqing was about to continue thinking about Kumiko Minamida and Mantetsu, but he found that Shunsuke Nakamura was still standing there.

"Nakamura-kun, how many things do you have to say? Can you finish them in one go?"
