Chapter 181: A good excuse
Chapter 181: A good excuse
"Put them all down." Major General Sato frowned and said angrily to everyone, "The head of the Special High Section, the consul of the consulate, and the senior head of the Vertical Section."
"You are all high-ranking leaders with great power, yet you are confronting each other with guns like a bunch of children."
"If this gets out, you will bring shame to the imperial soldiers."
"Assistant Chen, put down your gun first. I will take care of everything for you."
Chen Yang shrugged and returned the Nambu pistol to the stunned Changjiu Yeli.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
"All of you come with me." Sato Fumio's expression relaxed a little, he said softly, turned around and walked towards the headquarters.
Commander's Office.
They had agreed to come together, but in the end, only Chen Yang and Yoshikawa followed Sato Fumio into the office.
The rest of the people asked a few questions at the door and then ran away.
Chen Yang was not surprised at all. He looked like he was trying to smooth things over...
"Special Assistant Chen, come and sit down." Sato Fumio invited Chen Yang to sit down.
Yoshikawa, who was standing by, understood what he meant, and trotted over, took out a set of tea sets, and boiled some water.
"Does Special Assistant Chen like to drink tea?" Sato Fumio asked with a smile.
Chen Yang didn't know what he was thinking for a moment, and nodded slightly: "It's not that I like it or not, but I drink it often."
Sato Fumio said with a smile while fiddling with the tea set in his hand: "The art of tea originated from China, but it flourished in Japan."
"During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, Japan sent envoys to China for exchanges and brought back a lot of Chinese culture."
"Among them are architecture, tea art and other crafts."
"I am an old man, and I don't like many things in my life, but I have a special liking for the tea ceremony."
"Come, please."
As he spoke, he picked up a teacup filled with tea and motioned for Chen Yang to take a sip.
Chen Yang took the teacup with both hands, took a sip, smiled and nodded, "Your Excellency the Commander's tea art is indeed extraordinary."
"Although this tea is not top-grade Longjing, your skill in heating it and making it perfect is truly incredible."
"Special Assistant Chen is indeed a fellow traveler." Sato Fumio was very pleased to hear Chen Yang's praise.
"Commander, you didn't invite me here just to have a simple cup of tea, did you?" Chen Yang put down the teacup and asked.
Sato Fumio sighed: "Tea is a good thing. It absorbs the essence of heaven and earth and contains all the yin and yang and five elements."
"But it was also exposed to the wind, rain and sun, and finally fried in an iron pan and boiled in boiling water."
“This is the only way to create a fragrance that is unique to you.”
"This is just like life. After suffering comes happiness. After suffering comes happiness."
"Assistant Chen, I already know the whole process of this matter."
"I understand that the Special Higher Police were somewhat inconsiderate in handling this matter, and you have suffered some injustice."
"I feel wronged. Why should I feel wronged?" Chen Yang shrugged his shoulders, took out a letter of resignation from his arms, handed it to Sato Fumio and said, "To be honest with you, I was actually mentally prepared before coming here."
"Since there are people in the empire who are not confident that I can take this position, I will just leave."
"There is a saying in China: If you can't stay here, there will be other places that will. I have hands and feet, so why should I be afraid of starving to death?"
"Besides, I'm not serving the Empire to gain much benefit. On the contrary, I can earn more by running my own business and selling my supplies."
"Please, General Sato, forward this letter of resignation to Mrs. Yamamoto and tell her that I am not talented enough to be of any use."
"Let her choose another capable person for the operation center."
"Nonsense." Sato Fumio's face changed slightly and he said, "Assistant Chen, do you want to know your own identity?"
"Director of the Tangtang Operation Center, Special Advisor of the Chinese Affairs Department, and Senior Section Chief of the Imperial Longitudinal Line Project Vertical Section."
"You can't just say you won't do this job."
"Where do you place the Empire's expectations of you?"
"Alas." Chen Yang sighed and said, "I want to do my best for the empire, but others are worried."
"Commander Sato, Colonel Yoshikawa, for the sake of our being colleagues, please help me explain this to my wife."
"I have certainly tried my best."
Sato Fumio and Yoshikawa Masao looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
"Chen Yang, we really can't help you with this."
"OK OK."
"You've already made a scene with the Special Higher Police, you've let out your anger, and you've let the matter go."
"The stability of the Empire's transportation lines still requires the careful management of Special Assistant Chen."
"It's just one or two accidents. It can't erase your achievements during this period."
Chen Yang shook his head and wanted to refuse.
Sato Fumio's face darkened, and he said calmly, "Why? Do you need the personal order from General Nishio, the commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, before you are willing to take it back?"
"Well, that's not necessary." Things have come to this point and the excuse has been set. If Chen Yang continues to argue, it would be considered as ungrateful.
Sato Fumio's expression eased slightly and he said, "Don't worry, after you've made such a fuss this time, the Special Higher Police won't have any thoughts about you anymore."
"I have sent a car from your men to take them back."
"I will report this matter to General Tobiyuan, and you won't be wronged in vain."
"Hehe, hehe..." Chen Yang laughed dryly twice, but he felt extremely proud in his heart.
The previous gloomy mood was completely swept away by this commotion.
Chen Yang was happy, but Otani Genichirō was in trouble.
Chen Yang had just left the Military Police Headquarters when Sato Fumio called him over and scolded him.
What's even worse is that just after he finished scolding and returned to the office, Otani Genichirō received a call from General Doizo in Jiamusi.
Dohyo used almost all the abusive words he could think of on Otani Genichirō.
The reason why Tu Feiyuan scolded him was not because he tried to identify Chen Yang.
Rather, the action to identify Chen Yang was clearly led by the consulate, and they were the ones who made the decision.
In the end, the blame fell on the Special High Police.
They are all intelligence agencies, but the Special Higher Police are willing to be used as guns by the people in the consulate.
I bought a watch last year...
If it is true that Chen Yang was successfully identified as having problems, then the credit should also go to Yusuke Kuroda.
Now, look what happened. When something went wrong, they had nothing to do with it and just walked away.
On the contrary, the Special High Police are not popular either inside or outside.
Otani Genichirō was so scolded by Doiyuan that he dared not say a word and could only apologize repeatedly.
After hanging up the phone, Koizumi Kenichi walked up timidly.
"Section Chief Otani, what should we do with Aixinjueluo Xiqia who is lying in the hospital?"
"What should we do?" Otani Genichirō's face darkened and he shouted angrily, "Buy him a train ticket and tell him to get back to Manchukuo."
"Also, give orders that all intelligence about the material transfer center, especially about Chen Yang, be forwarded to the consulate."
"If anyone dares to touch his case privately, I will tell him to go back to Hokkaido to fish."
