"Two ladies, how come we meet again!" A man wearing a black coat, wiping the sweat from his head with a handkerchief in his hand, grinned.

It was Chen Ming. At this moment, his face was filled with a warm smile, as if he had met an old friend after a long separation.

Itai Yudai nodded to Yu Xiuning next to him, then his eyes fell on Chen Ming and he asked with some confusion, "Boss Chen, why are you in Tianjin? Is the restaurant in Harbin closed?"

"Haha, it's on, and still on." Chen Ming grinned, revealing a row of big white teeth, and his eyes narrowed into slits due to laughing.

As he spoke, he touched his round belly with his hand, and continued with a silly smile: "Business in Harbin is really great! It's packed every day, just like a big market!

I've got some extra cash! I'm thinking of opening another restaurant.

When you were in Harbin before, the military police came to support us every now and then, making my restaurant so popular!

My wife and I decided to head to Tianjin as well!

Bring Harbin's authentic Northeastern cuisine to Tianjin! Laobian dumplings, sweet and sour pork, and stir-fried pork slices—I'm sure they'll be cooked perfectly for the Tianjin guys!

Before he could finish his words, Yu Xiuning pinched the soft flesh on Chen Ming's waist and said, "Didn't I tell you before we came here to change your words? This is Tianjin, not Harbin."

Chen Ming bared his teeth and gently slapped Yu Xiuning's hand away: "Okay, my dear, you were worried before we came here, but now you see, we ran into acquaintances as soon as we arrived in Tianjin!

Let me tell you, if our business in Tianjin were to fail, and they couldn't chew our big iron pot-braised goose, well, we still have a way out, right?

No matter whether Tianjin people like salty or sweet and sour food, the Taijuns are here.

The military police love our restaurant. When they were in Harbin, the ladies ate like wolf cubs who hadn't had any meat for three days, but they actually praised our restaurant!

Now that the Taijuns have moved to Tianjin, I guess, when the time comes, as long as the Taijuns give us some support, or at worst, we can add some salt to this Northeastern stew, we can still make a living! "

Across from them, Itai Yudai and Nakagawa Ken stared at Chen Ming with strange expressions.

Chen Ming was trying to playfully learn Tianjin dialect, which made Yu Xiuning beside him very embarrassed. She quickly smiled at Ban Jing Yuda and the other man, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Chen Ming's ear!

"It hurts... it hurts... let go..." Chen Ming grimaced in pain and wailed continuously, his body twisting instinctively, trying to break free from Yu Xiuning's "clutches".

"I can't cure you. What's wrong with you? Can you please speak properly?" Yu Xiuning's eyes were wide open, and she grabbed Chen Ming's ears tightly with both hands, her tone full of blame and helplessness.

"Yes! It must be possible! It definitely is possible, wife, let go, it's going to fall!" Chen Ming shouted exaggeratedly, waving his hands in the air, praying that Yu Xiuning would let go quickly.

"Are you coming to Tianjin to open a restaurant?" Ban Jingxiong laughed as he watched the couple playing around. When he saw Chen Ming's ears were twisted into a knot, he felt a little uncomfortable in his ears as well, so he asked quickly.

"Wife, let go quickly, the lady is asking you questions!" Chen Ming took advantage of the moment when Yu Xiuning relaxed slightly, found an opportunity, and finally rescued his ear from Yu Xiuning's hand.

While rubbing his red ears, he looked at Itai Yudai and Nakagawa Ken with a smile on his face, with a hint of flattery in his eyes.

While Chen Ming was rubbing his ears, Yu Xiuning bowed slightly, smiled apologetically at Itai Yudai and Nakagawa Ken, then cleared her throat and began to speak.

"Please remember us two. Business in Harbin is pretty good. It was a coincidence that we came to Tianjin this time. I heard from people who ate at our restaurant that Tianjin was occupied by the Empire of Japan. There is a lot of work to be done and there are opportunities everywhere."

My husband and I discussed it and decided to come here and if there is an opportunity, we would really like to open a Northeastern Chinese restaurant here.

Tianjin has a large population and diverse tastes, and we two wanted to see if we could make a name for ourselves.”

At this time, Yuhito Amada came over and asked Yudai Itai if he could pack up and go back.

Just hearing Yu Xiuning's words, she immediately smiled and said, "Boss, this is a very good decision. To be honest, I've also eaten at your restaurant and it tasted very good.

The unique sauce, the tender meat, and the steaming dumplings still linger in my memory. And our general also likes Northeastern cuisine. If you open a restaurant in Tianjin, maybe our general will patronize it too.”

"No problem, if Team Takazaki... Oh, now I should call you General, General Takazaki! If the General can come to our restaurant, all consumption will be free!" Chen Ming became energetic immediately after hearing this, and said excitedly, clenching his fists and waving them in the air, as if he had already seen the scene of booming business.

Yu Xiuning nodded as well, but a hint of worry still flickered in her eyes. She asked hesitantly, "I just wonder if the market in Tianjin is stable right now? People often say that after a war, there will be chaos. I'm still a little worried. After all, we just arrived and are unfamiliar with the place. If we encounter any trouble, it will be difficult to deal with it."

"What's my wife saying? Aren't the ladies here? How can there be any instability? Is there anyone who dares to cause trouble in front of the ladies? Only they must be tired of living!" Chen Ming tilted his head, turned his nose up, and said with disdain.

"Boss Chen is right. Our military police will take over the public security in Tianjin. You can do business with confidence. There will be no problem." Ban Jingxiong said with a big laugh.

"Thank you all for your care! From now on, any military police brothers who come to my place to eat will get half price!" Chen Ming said generously, clasping his fists and bowing in the air, with a smile on his face as bright as the sun.

"Look at you, you're talking nonsense before the restaurant even opens. If you can't find a shop to open, I'll see how you're going to explain to the ladies!" Yu Xiuning said dissatisfiedly.

He patted Chen Ming lightly, with a hint of anger in his eyes.

Itai Yudai and Nakagawa Ken exchanged a glance. After receiving the eye contact, Nakagawa Ken immediately straightened his chest and patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, you can follow our patrol team tomorrow. As long as there is a house you like, we can help you get it. This little thing is no problem for us."

"That's great. I know your general has issued an order not to eat or drink for free. From now on, whenever the military police brothers come to eat, I will give them two dishes for free as a way to repay the ladies for their help!" Chen Ming said excitedly.

"Then we would like to thank Boss Chen on behalf of our soldiers." Amada Yuhito nodded and smiled. Then he raised his voice, looked around and said loudly: "Did you hear that? These two are Boss Chen and his wife who came from Harbin. Why don't you thank them!"

The military police nearby had already heard Chen Ming's loud voice. They knew that in less than the time it took to smoke a cigarette, several superiors had found them a half-price meal benefit, and they were all very happy.

After hearing what Gan Tianyujin said, he immediately turned around and bowed to Chen Ming and his group, shouting: "Thank you, Boss Chen! Thank you, Mrs. Chen!"

Ban Jingxiong laughed and patted Chen Ming's shoulder. He said, "You just arrived in Tianjin. Have you booked a place to stay? Do you want to go with us to the Japanese Concession to find a hotel? We have many nice hotels in the Japanese Concession, and they are safe."

“No, no.” Chen Ming waved his hands quickly, rubbed his hands, and said a little embarrassedly: “We are old acquaintances of Boss Xu. He helped us find a place to stay. I won’t bother you ladies.

Boss Xu is a very nice person. He found us a quiet and convenient place." Chen Ming emphasized the word "quiet" when he mentioned it.

"Well, if you hadn't mentioned it, I almost forgot that you and Xu-san are friends." Ban Jingxiong laughed, then winked at Chen Ming and continued, "Come to think of it, I haven't seen Xu-san in a few days. I don't know what he's been busy with recently. I'll go see him when I finish what I'm doing."

"Okay, just give me a shout before you come, and my wife and I will cook a table of food ourselves to entertain you." Chen Ming said enthusiastically, patting his chest.

"Yoshi, excuse me for disturbing you then." Itai Xiong said with a big laugh, a hint of anticipation in his eyes. Whether he was looking forward to the food or something else, only he knew.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

After chatting with Chen Ming for a while, Itai Yudai led the team back slowly.

Just before leaving the train station, the military police escort team ran into Takeda Hirokazu who was leading a team to check the situation.

Faced with the military police leading the way with the Type 2 tank and showing no intention of stopping, the garrison soldiers quickly moved to the side of the road. Hundreds of garrison soldiers watched helplessly as their former companions were escorted away by the military police.

No one dared to stop it.

After getting off the car, Takeda Hiroshi walked quickly forward, wanting to talk to Itai Yudai and others.

However, when he was still some distance away from Itai Yudai, Itai Yudai, who was sitting there, just gave him a cold look, which made Takeda Hiroichi stop and dare not move forward as if he was under a spell.

The eyes flashed with a cold light, revealing a chilling coldness that made people shudder.

"Colonel Takeda, you are very good, really very good." Itai Yudai sat in the car, lowered his head slightly, glanced at Takeda Koichi who was standing on the side of the road with a confused look on his face. His tone was full of sarcasm and disdain, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

"You deal with this first. Later, our military police headquarters will send a formal document to your garrison headquarters. At the same time, we will report this matter in detail to the country. We expect you to give a reasonable explanation. Humph!" After saying this, he snorted contemptuously.

"Master Banjing, what exactly happened! Didn't I send someone to investigate the affairs of the teachers and students of Nankai University? How come the Military Police Headquarters is involved!" Takeda Hirokazu really didn't know what had happened. He had just received the notice and hurriedly brought people here.

At this time, he really didn't know anything, was completely confused, and his heart was full of doubts and anxiety.

"You'll know soon." Itai Yudai left this puzzling sentence and waved his hand, signaling the driver to drive.

The car engine made a low roar and started slowly, raising a cloud of dust.

The smell of gasoline exhaust rushed into Takeda Hirokazu's nostrils. The pungent smell made him cover his nose with white gloves, frowning and looking solemn.

At this moment, the soldier who had entered the station earlier to check the situation ran out with a panicked look on his face.

The man was panting, looking panicked, with beads of sweat on his forehead and his lips trembling slightly from excessive running.

He reported in a panic: "Report to the Colonel! It's bad, many people have died!"

"What!" Takeda Hiroichi was shocked when he heard this, and turned around and trotted into the station.
