Spy Wars: I am the Captain of the Military Police

Chapter 415 You have a bad conscience

Hasegawa Kiyoshi also introduced several naval officers to Zhou Zhengqing, including the captain of the Izumo, Colonel Iwagoe Fujiki.

Hasegawa Kiyoshi is about to take the Izumo to Shanghai, and will use the Izumo as the flagship of the Navy's Third Fleet, so Zhou Zhengqing also chatted a little more with Colonel Iwagoe Kanki.

Jue Nei Gancheng, the manager of the Japanese Concession in Tianjin, also brought with him many people whom Zhou Zhengqing knew, most of whom were Japanese businessmen and a few well-known Chinese people in Tianjin.

Needless to say, those Japanese businessmen all came to please Zhou Zhengqing and hoped to have a chance to establish a relationship with the Yingqi family. Zhou Zhengqing could barely joke with these people. At the same time, he introduced Xu Zhongyi, who came with him to the cocktail party, to these businessmen, and told Xu Zhongyi to learn business skills from these predecessors.

After being specially introduced by Zhou Zhengqing, the Japanese businessmen did not dare to neglect him and started chatting with Xu Zhongyi enthusiastically. Xu Zhongyi himself could speak Japanese, so communication was very convenient. In addition, he was good at scheming, so he soon became one with the businessmen.

As for the few Chinese people who followed Juenei Gancheng, they didn't even have the chance to greet Zhou Zhengqing. They could only nod and bow when Juenei Gancheng introduced them, just to make themselves familiar with him.

After dealing with those who were qualified to come and say hello, Tashiro Kan'ichirō and Hasegawa Kiyoshi apologized and took their people to dance and drink.

However, Juenei Gancheng did not leave, but stayed with Zhou Zhengqing.

Scanning the entire room, Zhou Zhengqing found the familiar figure he had seen before, chatting with Shigekawa Hidekazu sitting on the sofa in the rest area next to the hall.

After thinking for a while, he turned to Itai Yudai and the others and said with a smile: "You guys can go and have fun by yourselves. I see there are many beautiful girls over there. As nobles of the empire, it's time for you to show your noble temperament and see if you can invite a girl to dance."

"Hi, thank you, General!" When Itai Yudai and others heard Zhou Zhengqing say that they could go out and play, they became excited. They had wanted to go drink and dance for a long time, but they did not dare to leave without Zhou Zhengqing's orders. Now, after hearing Zhou Zhengqing's orders, they became impatient.

"Your Excellency the Consul General, let's go over there and sit for a while." Seeing Itai Yudai and others leave, Zhou Zhengqing said to Hori Kanjo with a smile.

"What? Master Yingzaki isn't going to dance?" Hori Kanjo asked curiously when he heard Zhou Zhengqing's proposal.

Hearing this, Zhou Zhengqing nodded at Huizi, who was concentrating on playing with the conch in his arms, and said, "I can't help it. I still have to take care of my sister."

Horiuchi Kanjo turned around and looked at Reiko, who was walking beside him in a black dress, and said, "This must be your maid Miss Yingzi, right? Can you ask her to help take care of Miss Huizi? There are many young ladies from the Empire's merchants attending the cocktail party today. I believe they will be very happy to be invited to dance by Master Yingqi."

When Zhou Zhengqing heard this, he was slightly moved, but he quickly dismissed the idea.

Because behind Ju Nei Gancheng, two people suddenly appeared out of nowhere...

"Kouchi Kanjou, I can tell from the first glance that you, an old fellow, have no good intentions. Do you want to lead Takazaki-kun astray by calling in so many pretty girls? I tell you, we are still here!"

"That's right, Your Excellency really doesn't take our royal family seriously. He actually encouraged Takazaki-kun to dance with another girl! This is too much!"

Jue Nei Gancheng turned his head stiffly and was immediately met with two pairs of unfriendly eyes, whose owners were none other than Prince Jingren and Prince Boyi.

"Haha, Your Highnesses, you misunderstood. I definitely didn't mean that. I was just dancing, it's harmless!" Jue Nei Gancheng said awkwardly.

Jingren slapped Horiuchi Kanjo on the left shoulder and leaned in and said, "Although Yuko is only engaged to Takazaki-kun, as her uncle, I have the responsibility and obligation to help her keep an eye on Takazaki-kun, so, old Horiuchi, don't have any bad ideas!"

"That's right, you have a very bad conscience! This is very bad, very bad!" Prince Boyi also slapped Jue Nei Gancheng on the right shoulder and said coldly.

"Your Highnesses, I... am wronged!" Hori Kanjo said with a bitter face.

Zhou Zhengqing looked at this scene, shook his head helplessly, turned around and walked towards the rest area with Huizi in his arms. Lingzi and Qi followed closely behind him, leaving Jingren, Prince Boyi and Jue Nei Gancheng alone there and ignored them.

On this side, Shigekawa Hidekazu, who was talking to someone, saw Zhou Zhengqing coming over here, and quickly stood up and stood aside respectfully.

He didn't think Zhou Zhengqing came to see him, and he probably just came here to rest on the sofa, but he didn't dare to continue sitting there.

Zhou Zhengqing held Huizi and pretended to pass by Maochuan Xiuhe. When Maochuan Xiuhe bowed, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and said curiously: "I remember your name is Maochuan..." Zhou Zhengqing paused deliberately.

"Oh, hello General Takazaki, my name is Shigekawa Hidekazu, and I'm the head of Shigekawa Mansion." Shigekawa Hidekazu didn't expect Zhou Zhengqing to stop and talk, but he reacted quickly and introduced himself quickly.

Zhou Zhengqing turned around and faced Shigekawa Hidekazu, and said seriously, "I heard that Shigekawa Mansion is Aoki Mansion?"

"It's like this. I took over Shigekawa Mansion from Lord Osako Michimasa. It was indeed called Aoki Mansion before." Zhou Zhengqing's tone was serious, which made Shigekawa Hidekazu a little nervous.

"Is that Chinese man named Zhang Jinhui yours?" Zhou Zhengqing continued to ask.

"Zhang Jinhui?" Maochuan Xiuhe was stunned, not knowing why Zhou Zhengqing suddenly asked about a Chinese, but he quickly replied: "Yes, he is the captain of our Maochuan Mansion Action Team.

I know he was also present at the French Concession incident today. Did he offend General Yingqi? This damn guy, I will punish him severely when I return."

Zhou Zhengqing waved his hand and said, "No, he didn't offend me, but I don't like the way this Chinese does things. Knowing that the enemy is a Chinese agent, he didn't leave a single person alive.

This makes me very confused, and I even wonder if he is killing people to silence them. Major Shigekawa should investigate this matter when he returns."

"There is such a thing! But when he came back to report to me, he said that the people were beaten to death by the garrison military police! Damn it! He lied to me!" As Shigekawa Hidekazu spoke, his face darkened.

"You didn't even know. It seems that there are big problems with the management of Maochuan Mansion." Zhou Zhengqing said lightly.

"Ah, please forgive me, General Yingqi. Actually, I am not Zhang Jinhui's direct superior. Our Maochuan Mansion is divided into two parts. One part is all agents of the Empire, and they are all under my direct leadership.

The other part are mostly Chinese who have come to us. In order to facilitate management, I have set up several departments composed entirely of Chinese people and appointed a director. It is this director who reports to me on a daily basis.

By the way, for example, this person is the head of the Intelligence Department of Maochuan Mansion. He is one of those departments. "
