Chapter 907: This is like a trap
"What did you say, minutes of the imperial meeting?"
This is the third time Lu Xiyan has heard someone mention this. The first time was reposted by Lao Ma, and it was the news that the "farmer" passed on to the woodpecker.
The second time was Tang Jin. He knew that the Military Control Commission also had his own spies within the Wang Puppet, and it seemed that it was not uncommon to know that the "Minutes of the Imperial Front Meeting" existed.
The third time it was Luo Yaozu.
Luo Yaozu also knew the existence of this "Minutes of the Imperial Conference". Although he didn't know the content of this "Minute", is such a secret still a secret now?
First of all, this "mind" must be strictly kept confidential. Even if it is brought to China by Zhengyi, then there must be very few people who know it.
As for the content, I am afraid that even Masaichi Desaka himself may not be clear, because this is the next national policy program that the Japanese emperor and cabinet ministers discussed, and it has not been announced to the public. This shows that the content involves confidentiality and has not been sent directly to the Chinese Expeditionary Force Command in Nanjing by secret telegram.
This shows that the way of secret power transmission may not be the best way, and may even be intercepted and deciphered.
Of course, this is extremely unlikely.
Now everyone knows such a confidential decisive document, the Military Control Commission, the Central Commission, and the intelligence brokers of various countries in Shanghai know.
Although each has its own channels, the news was known to all parties almost at the same time, which is a bit unusual.
"Masaichi Inui is an old pervert. Although he is nearly 70 years old, he has an unusual interest in women, especially those who like young people. Chen Zhibo knew that he had this preference and specially asked someone to spend a lot of money to buy four sixteen-year-old girls from Suzhou..." Luo Yaozu continued to tell Lu Xiyan what he knew.
"Shameless!"
"It's shameless, but this is also an opportunity to contact Masaichi of the Doji Temple."
"Does Uncle Yaozu think an old pervert would take this important document to find flowers and willows?" Lu Xiyan asked back.
"We must give it a try. If we can get this minutes of the imperial meeting and know Japan's next policy towards China in advance, it is worth the price." Luo Yaozu said.
"This time, the visiting delegation of the Seichi Maichi and the Noble Court in Shanghai and Nanjing were both responsible for the Special High School Division of the Gendarmerie. The specific responsibility was Chiyoko Hattori. You wouldn't misunderstand her. You won't forget how Lao Jin died, right?" Lu Xiyan reminded.
"I know, this woman is very powerful, much better than her incompetent brother, but we can't just do nothing, right?" Luo Yaozu said.
"If you want to get close to Shiichi Saiti, the best way is to transfer Hattori Chiyoko away, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed." Lu Xiyan said.
"So, I need you to help me, to be precise, the military advisor needs to take action. Hattori Chiyoko has been tracking the whereabouts of the military advisor. Now only the military advisor may be able to make her interested." Luo Yaozu said seriously,
"What are your plans?"
"Assassinate Chen Zhibo."
"This is not a good idea. You also know that Chen Zhibo has many bodyguards around him, and traveling with Japanese military police protection is something that cannot be accomplished at all." Lu Xiyan shook his head and said.
"There is no need to be a real assassination, just send Chen Zhibo a 'death notice'." Luo Yaozu said.
"Does Uncle Yaozu hope to use this method to distract Chiyoko Hattori?" Lu Xiyan frowned. He understood Luo Yaozu's plan and was looking for it in the temple. While having fun, he briefly transferred Chiyoko Hattori away and then took action.
"Do you know the itinerary of Seiichi Desou?"
"The visiting group of Masaichiko Temple will stay in Shanghai for two days, conduct some visits and discussions, and take the train to Nanjing in two days to meet Wang." Luo Yaozu said.
"Do you have your inside line by Chen Zhibo?"
Luo Yaozu did not answer, but if he didn't answer, he would be a default.
"I can't make the decision on this, but I can help you convey your meaning." Lu Xiyan needs time to think about it. Even if he agrees to do so, he cannot answer immediately.
"Okay, I'll wait for your news. If you want to take action, there's only one chance tomorrow night." Luo Yaozu said, "Once people arrive in Nanjing, they will be out of our control."
"knew."
...
The third floor of Bainaohui Building.
"Chite Chiyoko, as you expected, after the news of the 'Minutes of the Imperial Conference' was released, the underground intelligence community in Shanghai became lively. Now I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at the Lord of the Temple." Sakai stood respectfully behind Hattori Chiyoko and reported.
"What's the movement of the radio stations we are focusing on?"
"The density of communication has increased significantly. According to the passwords we have already mastered, basically all mention the Lord of the Temple and the 'Minutes of the Imperial Conference'."
"Very good. I'll release the news of the Secretariat's private banquet from Shanghai Mayor Mr. Chen Zhibo. Has the guest list come out?"
"Here comes out, Director Chiyoko."
"Add a few people I have designated in." Hattori Chiyoko ordered.
"Do you want to tell Secretary Mo?" Sakai was stunned for a moment and asked.
"No need." Hattori Chiyoko said arrogantly.
"Hayi!"
...
"Mayor Chen set up a private dinner in the mansion tomorrow night to invite the temple's Lord to visit China. Director Lu, you are the Director Hua of the French Concession, and the young leader of Shanghai Industrial and Commercial Recruitment. Shanghai Municipal Senator, so our mayor would like to invite you to attend tomorrow night's dinner together."
Lu Xiyan took the invitation from the other party in surprise. He and Chen Zhibo could only meet in public and say a few words. Because of Zhou Fuhai's relationship, they had no selfish relationship.
Chen Zhibo invited the banquet at Masaichi Nai of Temple, which explained that it was a personal nature. How could he send him an invitation? This is too unreasonable.
This matter is strange.
Could it be that Shi Nakachi wanted to meet him through Chen Zhibo?
This is completely unnecessary. Masaichi Nakachi really wants to see him, so why does it take so much trouble to borrow Chen Zhibo's private banquet?
This was strange. He was puzzled and decided to call Zhou Fuhai. Since he was closer to Zhou Fuhai, some things were just towards him on the surface. He knew that Zhou and Chen Ming had a secret fight. In politics, it was unrealistic to please Zhou and others. If he didn't do it well, he would offend both sides.
Zhou Fuhai is a villain, good at speculation, and ruthless in the Wang Group. Although Chen has a higher position than him, Zhou's methods are much better than Chen.
"Brother Fuhai, how busy?"
"Brother Xiyan, you never call me, which makes Brother Yu a little flattered." Zhou Fuhai's laughter came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Xiyan's way of getting along with each other, which makes Zhou Fuhai feel very comfortable. It's too close and too far, and it doesn't feel good.
"Brother Fuhai is busy with official business, how dare I harass him on a phone every day?" Lu Xiyan also smiled.
"What, Brother Xiyan, hesitant, is there anything wrong?"
"There is one thing that I don't understand. Today, Mayor Chen suddenly sent someone to send me an invitation, saying that it would be a banquet for the visiting delegation of the Japanese Noble House in Chen's mansion tomorrow night, and asked me to come with me. Do you think I'm going or not?" Lu Xiyan asked.
"Is it the temple's Lord requested?" Zhou Fuhai asked.
"I don't know this anymore. I have no interaction with the temple's lord." Lu Xiyan said hurriedly.
"Wait for me, and in half an hour, I'll call you." Zhou Fuhai said after pausing for seven or eight seconds.
"Okay, I'll wait for your call."
...
Half an hour later, Zhou Fuhai called.
"Brother Xiyan, I asked, your name was not on the list of guests invited, but was added later." Zhou Fuhai said.
"Who added it?" Lu Xiyan asked in surprise. Those who have the right to add names to Chen Zhibo's list of guests invited to the banquet could count them even if they pinched their fingers.
"It's not Mayor Chen or Secretary Mo. It should be that Japan is interested in you or the request of the Lord of the Temple?"
"Brother Fuhai, do you think I'm going or not?"
"Go, we don't need to offend the Japanese now." Zhou Fuhai said.
"Okay, then I'll listen to Brother Fuhai." Lu Xiyan nodded.
Lu Xiyan didn't know that because his name was added to the list of invited guests, Secretary Mo and Chen Zhibo had a quarrel.
Secretary Mo is actually Chen Zhibo's love wife. As we all know, she is responsible for Chen Zhibo's daily work and itinerary. This woman is also the **** of the Wang Puppet Government. She likes to call her "Committee Mo". Even Chen's original wife wants to give her three points. She also has a younger brother who works in the Blockade Management Office and is in charge of drug control and food work. They are both key departments.
The greed and tyranny of the Mo siblings are also well-known.
However, Lu Xiyan also figured it out to call Zhou Fuhai. Inviting herself should have nothing to do with Chen Zhibo.
Perhaps it was the Japanese who were wielding behind their backs. Chen Zhibo was the second-rate figure of Wang Puppet. Apart from himself and that member Mo, there were only Japanese.
Why do the Japanese want him to appear at a private dinner tomorrow night?
This is also what puzzled him.
No matter what it is for, you won’t know after you go. Lu Xiyan simply put down the burden in his heart and decided to go to the banquet tomorrow night.
"Xiyan, you are going to Chen Mansion to attend a banquet tomorrow night. Do you need me to accompany you?" Meng Fanxing returned home in the evening and knew that Lu Xiyan was going to attend Chen Zhibo's banquet.
"No, Zhengyi in the temple is a hungry ghost. Besides, the invitation is about me, and there is no requirement to ask for a female companion." Lu Xiyan said.
"Then you bring Xiaole with her, she can protect you." Meng Fanxing nodded.
"No, let Xiaowu and Lao Ma go with me." Lu Xiyan said.
“Okay.”
The next morning, Lu Xiyan called Yan Lei over and asked him to find Luo Yaozu. He felt that it was too risky to leave the "death notice" matter.
After all, I don’t know anything in this “Minutes of the Imperial Conference”, and it is really unnecessary to take such a big risk.
Moreover, the news spread too quickly this time. With his understanding of the confidentiality methods of Japanese intelligence agencies, he should not make such a low-level mistake.
