Living in the Republic of China era, from undercover agent to immortality

........

Two hours later, at Kitada Naoko's house...

"Nagamine-kun, please!"

"Colonel Takeda, you're too kind..."

Li Changfeng and the military police captain, Takeda Ichiro, sat facing each other.

Kitada Naoko brought out the prepared food.

Li Changfeng took out two bottles of liquor and placed them on the table.

"Takeda-kun, we won't drink sake today."

"I asked someone to bring me two bottles of Fenjiu from Shanxi. They taste excellent."

"Please, Mr. Takeda, have a taste."

As Li Changfeng spoke, he opened the bottle directly.

Then they changed to two large tea mugs and poured more than half a cup for each of them.

When the military police captain, Ichiro Takeda, saw this scene, he immediately frowned.

However, thinking about what they were going to talk about later, he gritted his teeth and bowed slightly.

"Changfeng, I've heard that Chinese baijiu is very strong."

"You like to drink wine from large bowls and eat meat in large chunks."

"Seeing it today, it's indeed as I've said..."

From Takeda Ichiro's eyes, Li Changfeng could tell that the Japanese soldier had chickened out.

Compared to low-alcohol sake, baijiu can be considered the king of alcoholic beverages.

"Haha, Mr. Takeda, you flatter me!"

"In that case, I'll do it. Takeda-kun, do as you please."

With that, Li Changfeng picked up the large tea mug and drank it all in one go.

Compared to his drinking capacity, he was a true time traveler.

Having frequented drinking establishments in his past life, two ounces of wine were nothing to him; it only caused his face to flush slightly.

Seeing Li Changfeng's decisiveness, Takeda Ichiro on the other side suddenly looked a little embarrassed.

However, for the sake of saving face, he gritted his teeth, picked up the cup, and started gulping it down.

After a few sips of the drink, a spicy taste immediately shot into my throat.

Ichiro Takeda's nose and eyes were running, and he coughed twice.

This feeling is absolutely intoxicating.

"Cough cough cough-"

"Changfeng-kun, your baijiu is indeed very strong, but I like it."

"After drinking this wine, my heart felt like it was on fire, and it warmed me up a lot."

"No wonder the Empire listed baijiu as a strategic resource..."

As he spoke, Ichiro Takeda wiped his mouth with a towel.

These words truly reflected his feelings.

"Takeda-kun, as expected of an Imperial soldier, you have a good capacity for alcohol!"

"But judging from your appearance, it seems to be your first time drinking baijiu."

"It would be better to have Miss Nai prepare some hangover soup, so she doesn't get drunk later."

"It wouldn't be good if something happened to the military police..."

Li Changfeng smiled slightly and looked at Takeda Ichiro, offering his reminder.

This was a plan he had prepared long ago; the hallucinogen was best placed in the hangover soup.

If he put it directly into the wine, Li Changfeng was afraid he would kill the guy instantly.

As he spoke, he winked at Kitada Naoko, who was standing to the side.

Bai Tiannai immediately understood and bowed slightly.

"Takeda-kun, Nagamine-kun is right!"

"Your health is important, but the military police work cannot be neglected."

"It would be bad if General Matsumoto were to blame us."

A gentle voice came through, carrying a hint of concern.

Upon hearing this, Takeda Ichiro nodded slightly.

"Then I'll have to trouble Naiko..."

After all, matters concerning the military police cannot be delayed.

Takeda Ichiro stood up unsteadily, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

Only then did I manage to suppress the burning sensation in my throat.

"Changfeng-kun, let's talk while we eat."

Pointing to the sashimi and sushi on the table, Takeda Ichiro reached out his hand to Li Changfeng.

The two picked up their knives and forks and immediately began to eat.

Takeda Ichiro's expression relaxed, and he looked at Li Changfeng and slowly spoke:

"Changfeng-kun, I called you here today for two reasons, one is to celebrate your appointment as the head of the 76th Intelligence Division."

"Congratulations!"

"The other one has a favor to ask."

As he spoke, Ichiro Takeda picked up the teacup on the table.

Li Changfeng poured himself a glass of Fenjiu liquor and clinked glasses with Takeda Ichiro.

"Colonel Takeda, please feel free to speak. After all, we are not strangers."

Li Changfeng downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, then nodded very respectfully.

“Nagamine-kun, it’s like this.”

"In order to open a second front, the empire has gathered a batch of strategic materials in Nanjing."

"The original plan was to have No. 76 secretly transport it to Shanghai."

"It's just that too many things have happened recently, even the Bai Mansion has a mole."

"So General Matsumoto asked me to find a reliable person to do this."

"In my eyes, Nagamine-kun is the most suitable candidate."

Takeda Ichiro took a sip of tea and looked at Li Changfeng very seriously.

Secretly transporting supplies may seem simple, but the risks along the way are obvious to everyone.

Their efforts to gather supplies in Nanjing could not be kept secret from the Kuomintang's intelligence agencies and the Communist Party's spies.

The supplies may encounter danger before they even reach Shanghai.

"Takeda-kun, since these are important supplies for the Imperial Army, why didn't General Matsumoto send the military police himself?"

"I've just arrived at the intelligence department, and I don't have many people I can trust."

"If we make a mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Li Changfeng bowed slightly and said with a troubled expression.

If you agree to something like that right away, then you're out of your mind.

This Takeda Ichiro doesn't offer any benefits, yet he wants me to risk my life for him.

The first two times I went to the military police station for interrogation, it was to make myself cannon fodder.

I'm afraid their purpose this time is similar.

Why would the Japanese entrust truly important supplies to No. 76?

It was probably to deceive others and deliberately send himself to attract the attention of the anti-Japanese elements.

The personnel transporting the supplies have been arranged separately.

“Nagamine-kun, I personally recommended you to General Matsumoto, and the General has agreed.”

"Besides, you're from the Military Police Investigation Section, so you're not an outsider."

Please consider this matter carefully.

"Gaining General Matsumoto's trust is a risk worth taking."

Hearing that Li Changfeng did not immediately agree, Takeda Ichiro frowned slightly, then said confidently.

In Ichiro Takeda's memory, this guy had never refused him.

Then Matsumoto Naoki, who was stationed at the Shanghai headquarters, was brought out.

Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng curled his lip.

General's trust is worthless!

He was at number 76, and his life was already extremely difficult.

Are they afraid of not dying soon enough that they're still helping the Japanese transport supplies?

Just as Li Changfeng was considering whether to agree first and then make plans, Kitada Naoko walked in carrying a bowl of hangover soup.

"Takeda-kun, have some soup first."

"Such a big matter, Mr. Nagamine should also consider it."

"After all, this was General Matsumoto's order."

Kitada Naoko put down the soup, then handed Takeda Ichiro a spoon, and said very seriously.

Li Changfeng had no idea that the woman had overheard their conversation.

Moreover, Ichiro Takeda remained silent, showing no sign of blaming Naoko Kitada for being talkative.

After all, in many situations, Japanese women do not have a high social status and cannot speak freely.

"Alright, Mr. Nagamine, you can think about it carefully."

Give me an answer by tomorrow afternoon at the latest.

Takeda Ichiro looked at Li Changfeng, then picked up the hangover soup, tilted his head back, and gulped it down.

This scene stunned Li Changfeng for a moment.

This guy really trusts Kitada Naoko.

"Thank you, Takeda-kun."

Li Changfeng smiled slightly and bowed to Takeda Ichiro.

Then the two of them started chatting idly, exchanging a few words here and there.

Not long after, Takeda Ichiro suddenly went limp and began to hallucinate.

"Odosan (father), my Odosan (my father), what are you doing here?"

"Unfilial son, Takeda, it's been so long since we drank together..."

Seeing Takeda Ichiro lying on the ground, calling out "Dad," Li Changfeng knew the hallucinogen had taken effect.
