Chapter 409: The Purpose of the Bamboo Agency in Shanghai
Chapter 409: The Purpose of the Bamboo Agency in Shanghai
"Don't move." Kenichi Kurata, a small leader of the Special Agent Department, took out a Nambu pistol and pointed it at the group of men in black in front of him.
"Who are you? Don't you know that this place is under martial law?"
"Martial law. Which unit are you from? The order we received is not to let go of any suspicious person." The leader, Eiji Tsukahara, took out a pistol and pointed it at the other man's head without fear.
"We are from the Special Branch, and we have been ordered to track down the gunman here." Kurata Kenichi said coldly, "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
"The First Division of Secret Service is nothing. We are from the Mei Agency in Shanghai."
When Eiji Tsukahara heard the other party introduce himself, he had no intention of giving him face.
"I'm warning you, if you hinder the Mei Agency from performing its duties, you'll be in big trouble."
Kurata Kenichi's face darkened and he shouted angrily, "You want to scare me? Do you think we have no one?"
An agent from the First Division of the Secret Service issued an order outside, and a group of armed military police suddenly appeared at the end of the street.
"Tsk, you think you have more people? Do you think you are the only ones with people?" Tsukahara Eiji sneered and fired a shot into the air.
In an instant, four or five heavy trucks drove over from both sides, with heavy machine guns mounted on the vehicles. In the truck beds, countless soldiers were equipped with various sophisticated weapons.
The captain of the gendarmerie, Haruhiko Ishigaki, took a look at the logo on the other car and his face suddenly turned ugly.
"Since when did you people at the material distribution warehouse start to take care of public security matters?" The logo of the distribution center is clearly printed on all the heavy trucks.
Ishigaki Haruhiko certainly knew where they came from.
"Don't worry about it. We have received orders that there are gunmen here who intend to shoot important imperial officials. We have been ordered to come to reinforce."
"I don't care which department you are from. We will leave after we finish the inspection. You can handle the rest by yourselves."
"Tsukahara-kun, go up and see if there is anyone there?" Koichi Nitta's rank is major, and the highest commander on the opposite side, Haruhiko Ishigaki, is also a major.
Koichi Nitta had no intention of giving them face at all.
Eiji Tsukahara gave the other party a demonstrative look and ordered his men to patrol upstairs to see if there were any traces of the gunman.
"Stop, stop it now." At this moment, the director's secretary Shinichi Sato hurried to the scene.
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, put the gun away." Sato Shinichi had already received a call from St. Mary's Hospital and knew that the gunman had ambushed Shibayama Kaneshiro and Kawashima Yoshiko in front of the Grand Theater on Lulin North Road.
He had privately contacted people from the Military Control Commission, and in the current situation he was obviously being tricked by them.
The other party did not abide by the agreement and help them get rid of Minamida Yunko, but chose to kill Shibayama Kaneshiro and Kawashima Yoshiko.
"Nitta-kun, things here are a bit complicated. Let's not delay here any longer and go hunt down the gunman."
"You lead the team and follow me."
"Okay." Hirokazu Nitta waved his hand, signaling everyone to put down their guns.
Sato Shinichi leaned close to his ear and told him a few addresses. Nitta Hiroshi nodded and told his men to turn the car around and drive to the other side.
The other party came quickly and left quickly. In the blink of an eye, they all disappeared, leaving behind a bunch of agents from the Secret Service Division and the military police staring at each other...
Shanghai, St. Mary's Hospital.
This hospital is just above Lulin North Road.
After being sent to the hospital, Kenshiro Shibayama entered the operating room quickly.
All the people in No. 76 were on alert and surrounded the hospital.
The lesson from Tang Yongfu last time was still vivid in their minds, so when Shibayama Kenshiro was sent to the operating room this time, all the medical staff were checked from top to bottom by No. 76.
Even the caregivers and cleaning staff were not let off easily.
The sign in the operating room was on, and Wu Sibao and Li Zuping were pacing at the door.
How could this happen? How could the gunmen of the Military Control Commission know the route of No. 76 and set up an ambush in front of the Grand Theater in advance?
Judging from the way the other party attacked, it was obvious that he had done his homework.
"Captain, Team Leader Li." Several agents from No. 76 hurried to the door of the operating room.
"How is it? Did they catch the person?" This is what Wu Sibao is most concerned about now.
"The other party had already prepared an escape route." The visitor said depressedly, "We checked layer by layer, and when we found the ambush site, no one was there."
"We can only confirm that there were three assassins, and they were armed with German weapons."
"What's the use of knowing this? I'm asking you now where the person is?" Wu Sibao grabbed the other person's collar and asked viciously: "Tell me, where is the person?"
"I'm sorry, Captain." The man said innocently, "We really tried our best."
"I'm telling you, you better pray that Commander Shibayama is okay. If anything happens to him, I'll take you with me even if I die."
.......
Shanghai Stock Exchange, Special High Section.
Nantian Yunzi rushed into Touhouyuan's office.
She responded immediately after receiving the news that Shibayama Kaneshiro and Kawashima Yoshiko were ambushed by gunmen and took the lead in imposing martial law on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
But as soon as the order was issued, Doiyuan urgently stopped it. Moreover, on the way to St. Mary's Hospital, she was stopped by a car of the Special Higher Police and taken back to the Special Higher Police.
Nan Tian Yunzi shouted angrily: "Teacher, why did you stop me from searching the whole city? Do you know that these killers have crossed the bottom line? They dared to attack the important officials of the empire."
Doi-Yuan sighed and said, "The reason I called a halt was because I didn't want others to know that Shibayama-kun was in trouble."
"Do you think his real purpose in coming to Shanghai is to help you catch a few gunmen?"
"You take those people too seriously. Are the chief of the Bamboo Agency going to Shanghai in person just for a few gunmen?"
"Teacher? What do you mean?" Doi-Yuan's words confused Minamida Yunko. Wasn't Shibayama Kaneshiro called by Doi-Yuan himself to help her?
"He came here because he had a secret mission that required the assistance of the Bamboo Agency."
Tu Feiyuan frowned and said leisurely after a while: "The Army Department wants to force the Soviet Union to make concessions, and some people have come up with a whimsical plan to hunt bears."
"The goal is to assassinate the Soviet leader."
"In the whole plan, the Bamboo Agency played a very important role as an intelligence provider."
"If the Navy Department knew that Shibayama-kun had been assassinated, they would probably stop the plan urgently for fear of the news leaking out."
"Army General Terauchi Juichi will soon take over General Nishio's position as the highest commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Force."
"He called me half an hour ago and told me to conceal the truth of the matter at all costs and to find someone to take over the job of the bamboo agency immediately."
"Yunzi, now is your chance. If the Army Department can complete the Bear Hunting Plan, you will be the first and only female colonel with real power in the history of the Empire."
"What?" Nan Tian Yunzi's eyes instantly became extremely hot...
