Chapter 111 [Discussion] (Part 1)

The Japanese side wanted to transport opium and arms into the inland China through the Tianjin Port, so controlling the Tianjin Port Terminal became their top priority. In the past, when Fang Shiming was alive, most of the Tianjin Port Terminals were controlled by him. The old man was strong and patriotic, loving the country and the people, and flatly refused to cooperate with the Japanese, and publicly declared that in his lifetime, no activities that harmed the people would be allowed within the scope of Fangjia property. It is precisely because of this that Fang Shiming also became a thorn in the Japanese's side. It can be said that his death is a great thing worth celebrating for the Japanese side.

Ryoko Matsuyuki was very alert. She asked the driver to walk around the streets of Tianjin for several times, and was sure that no one was following him and had just entered the Japanese concession. It was not a strange thing to enter the Japanese concession as a Japanese citizen. Ryoko Matsuyuki went to Ueno Bookstore, where the owner of the here Toshiyuki Fujino was her nominal uncle.

The bookstore had not opened in the early morning, Ryoko Matsuxue got off the car at the back door, and then asked the driver to leave, knocking on the door gently. Soon, I saw a gray-haired Japanese old woman coming out to open the door. She first opened a gap in the door, and then respectfully invited Ryoko Matsuxue to enter, then looked carefully at both sides of the road outside, and then closed the back door.

There is a typical Japanese-style building in the backyard of the bookstore. Ryoko Matsuyuki walked up the platform, opened the sliding door, took off her shoes, walked slowly into it, walked up the stairs along the passage, and came to the second floor. Through the door, you can see two figures, who were playing chess indoors.

Ryoko Matsuyuki said respectfully: "Mr. Fungoe, can I come in?"

A generous and kind voice came from inside and said, "Come in!"

Ryoko Matsuyuki opened the sliding door, but saw two people sitting opposite each other on the tatami inside. They were playing chess. One of them was Toshiyuki Fujita, the owner of the bookstore. His public identity was Ryoko Matsuyuki's uncle. The other was thick eyebrows and big eyes, a stout figure, and a magnificent spirit. He was the instructor of the Qianyang Club and the Shingotsu Ryuichi, one of the four major kings of the Japanese Tyrannosaurus Club.

Ryoko Matsuxue did not dare to disturb them playing chess, and knelt respectfully beside her, with a rare look of respect and peace on her pretty face.

Fujita Toshiki's eyes were staring at the chessboard from beginning to end, holding a white piece in his hand, frowned, and had no choice but to make a move for a long time. Finally, he slowly shook his head and said, "I lost, Shingotsuki Jun's skills are better."

Ryuichi Fukiyo laughed and said, "It's not that I'm better at it, but that Fujita's temperament is indifferent and uncontested, so I'm going to get a bargain."

Toshiko Fujita smiled and said, "If you are not as good as others, you are not as good as others. Why should you be too humble?" At this time, he raised his eyes and looked at Ryoko Matsuyuki on the side. Ryoko Matsuyuki bowed to him and met this nominal uncle, Ryoko Matsuyuki only met after arriving in Tianjin. The two of them had never said a few words in total. Toshiko Fujita appeared to be humble and polite, but it made Ryoko Matsuyuki feel unpredictable and profound. She lacked understanding of this person, but from the good relationship between him and Ryoichi Shingoki, it can be guessed that this person has a good status in the organization.

Fujita Toshito didn't say anything, slowly stood up, walked out of the door, and brought the sliding door with his backhand until the sliding door was completely closed. Ryoko Matsuyuki dared to get up by herself.

Chuan Yuelong calmly put away the chess pieces one by one and said calmly: "You shouldn't have appeared here at this time?"

As Fang Kangwei's concubine, Ryoko Matsuyuki should have been guarding the Fang family at this time. Ryoko Matsuyuki said, "Mr. Chuanyue, because some urgent matters have happened, my subordinates have to come to see you."

Chuanyue Ryuichi smiled and said, "I came to Tianjin this time just to meet old friends, not for official business. Ryoko, with your ability, it should not be difficult to solve the Fang family's affairs."

Ryoko Matsuyuki bowed again to apologize: "I disappoint you!"

Chuan Yuelong said: "The assassination of Bai Yunfei is a big deal, and he will not swallow this easily."

Ryoko Matsuyuki sighed and said, "The assassination yesterday has nothing to do with me!"

Fukiyo Ryuki's thick eyebrows were twisted together. He believed that Ryoko Matsuyuki would not deceive him, but if the assassination in front of Fang Mansion had nothing to do with the Japanese side, then who was directing the incident behind the scenes?

Ryoko Songxue said: "Bai Yunfei has always coveted the wharf of the Fang family. He wants to control most of the ports in Tianjin and enjoy the huge profits of smuggling opium and arms. I suspect that yesterday's assassination was a play directed and acted by him. He deliberately used this method to point the finger at us. At the same time, he also found an excuse to deal with the Fang family."

Chuan Yuelongyi shook his head: "Even if it is a trick, there is no need to take risks with his life. It is not just us and Bai Yunfei who are looking at the port of China, the Germans, the French, and the British. Don't forget that there is also the Beiyang government. There is a saying among the Chinese people: The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind, and the truly terrible enemies often lurk in the dark."

Ryoko Matsuyuki showed great respect in front of Ryuichi Shinjo, and even became extremely careful in breathing.

Fukitsu Ryuichi picked up a newspaper from the side and gently placed it in front of Ryoko Matsuyuki: "Did you come for this?"

Ryoko Songxue glanced at the newspaper quickly and nodded, "This morning newspaper published the news of Fang Kewen's return."

Chuan Yuelong said: "It's not just the morning newspaper, but more than ten influential newspapers in Tianjin published this news on the front page. It seems that they are prepared." Chuan Yuelong believes that these newspapers publish such news at the same time is not a coincidence, but intentionally, and it can affect so many newspapers. Bai Yunfei has such ability. It is not ruled out that he was assassinated in front of Fang Mansion, so he gave the Fang family a warning in this way. Chuan Yuelong realized at first that things were more complicated than he expected.

Ryoko Matsuxue said: "Why does Mr. Chuanyue know that Fang Kewen is still alive?" She learned that Fang Kewen was alive from Chuanyue Ryuichi. Chuanyue Ryuichi had not given her any special explanation before.

Chuan Yuelongyi whispered: "Fang Kewen was rescued by a priest named Luo Lie, and this news has been confirmed."

Songxue Ryoko said: "Luo Lie has arrived in Tianjin."

Fukiyo Ryuichi turned to Matsuyuki Ryoko and said, "Have you seen him?"

Songxue Ryoko nodded and said, "He and I should have dealt with in Lingtian Castle. He disguised himself as an alias Ye Wucheng and had his first-class flying knife skills."

Chuan Yuelong said, "In this way, you are a reunion of old friends. Did he recognize you?"

Ryoko Songxue thought about it and said, "I must have recognized me. This Luo Lie is not simple."

Chuan Yuelong said: "He should be the key figure in finding Fang Kewen."

Ryoko Songxue thought of all the previous fights with Luo Lie in Lingtian Castle, and her heart became heavy. Luo Lie was difficult to deal with. Moreover, he came to pay his respects with Bai Yunfei yesterday, and the two of them actually got together. If the two reached a consensus and joined forces to deal with him, things might become bad.

Chuanyue Ryuichi noticed her mood at this moment from the solemn expression of Ryoko Matsuyuki, and said indifferently: "Knowing yourself and your enemy, you will never be defeated. How do you read the newspaper?"

Ryoko Matsuxue said: "No matter who the planner is behind the scenes, his purpose is to disrupt our plan and intend to destroy the fact that Fang Kangwei inherited all the industries of the Fang family."

Chuan Yuelong said: "Fang Kewen is the key to the success or failure of this matter."

Ryoko Matsuyuki said, "His women and children are under our control, so I wish he would not dare to act rashly."

Chuanyue Ryuichi said, "If he really cared, why haven't he shown up until now?"

"Maybe it's been controlled."

Shinji Ryuichi put the last piece in his hand, put the Go back to its original place, and whispered: "Who do you think it is?"

Ryoko Matsuyuki shook her head, and she didn't dare to speak casually in front of the veteran figure in the society.

Chuanyue Ryuichi said: "Tell me what you think."
