Zhang Yong shrugged.
He ignored Zhao Yulun's reaction.
I don't know!
I didn't lie to you!
I'm not from the Huaiji government either.
Waved his hand.
Summoned the shop assistant over.
'Sir...'
'Bring me some decent food.'
'Sir...'
'Mind your own business!'
'Okay!'
The waiter reached out and took the two silver dollars. He went off with a smile on his face.
At a place like the Sichuan Western Hall, two silver dollars could buy a small table of food and drinks. The main thing was to be generous.
'Baka!'
Zhao Yulun was even more angry.
He wanted money, but the Huaiji authorities wouldn't give it to him. But the Huaiji authorities were not stingy when it came to their own spending.
It's always two large ocean. Why don't you go to hell!
'Gulul...'
'Gulul...'
Suddenly, his stomach grumbled.
He felt embarrassed. Fortunately, Li Wei didn't seem to notice. That made him feel a little better.
He kept swallowing his saliva.
He was afraid that his stomach would grumble again. That would be embarrassing.
Soon, the food came on a conveyor belt.
'Please!'
Zhang Yong said politely.
Zhao Yulun buried his head and ate.
He was angry.
He was hungry.
He wanted to get his money's worth.
After all, it was the Kuaijiguan who was paying, so he might as well eat!
Zhang Yong: ...
What's going on?
Where did this Japanese spy come from?
Why does he look like he ran away from Somalia?
Is he really that hungry?
So he took out another big silver coin. Add an extra dish.
'Baka!'
Zhao Yulun was even more angry.
These sons of bitches from the Kuaijiguan!
They really are rich!
Two silver coins isn't enough! Give me another one!
Feeling sorry for himself, Zhao Yulun had clearly been promised 18,000 taels of silver. But in the end, he only got 5,000!
Damn it!
The other 13,000 must have been embezzled by the corrupt government officials.
Otherwise, how would this bastard in front of him have so much silver?
I'll eat, eat, eat, eat!
I'll eat you all out of business!
Zhao Yulun ate like a whirlwind, not giving Zhang Yong any face.
Zhang Yong: ?
No way?
You don't have to be so ruthless.
OK, I'll add another one. Let's talk about this after we've eaten.
And the result...
'Baka!'
Zhao Yulun was even more angry.
The other person had actually taken out another one. Aaah. He was so angry.
The other person wanted to add more food!
That was too much. So much money! He had spent four taels of silver on a meal!
Baka!
Asshole!
That was all my money! It was all my money! My money!
Aaah, so angry...
But he really couldn't eat any more. If he ate any more, he would die.
'Baka!'
'You, stop!'
'You, don't support the monkey's work!'
'Baka!'
Zhao Yulun said angrily.
Zhang Yong looked at the other person blankly. What monkey's work? I don't know!
I didn't expect any new information to come up.
Fortunately, he was still very experienced at sabotage.
His lips moved. He wanted to say something, but stopped.
Zhao Yulun noticed immediately and said angrily, 'What did you want to say?'
'Let's talk somewhere else. It's not safe here.'
'What did you want to say?'
'Let's talk outside!'
Zhang Yong looked around.
There were a lot of people here. He couldn't do anything.
If necessary, he was prepared to take the other party directly back for a chat.
'You're wasting it!'
Zhao Yulun didn't want to waste so much food and drink.
That was four big ones!
Four whole dollars!
Damn it!
Everyone in the Department of Public Security deserves to die! How can they fulfil the important task entrusted to them by the Empire when they are so extravagant?
Zhang Yong: ?
Is this guy really poor?
Isn't he a spy? Is he really that poor?
'I'll tell the waiter, and we'll come back later to finish eating. We won't waste any food.'
'Hmph!'
Zhao Yulun agreed only then.
Zhang Yong led him out of the Sichuan Western Restaurant. They went to a quiet place nearby.
Looking around. Not bad. We can get started.
Zhao Yulun was still fuming, and pressed, 'What exactly are you trying to say?'
'The higher-ups aren't very happy with the monkey work,' Zhang Yong said casually.
He didn't know the specifics of the monkey work. But he couldn't go wrong with a random lie.
After all, the initiative was now in his hands.
If things went wrong, he would immediately shoot the other party. First wound them, then arrest them. Then slowly interrogate them using Liu Heizi's identity.
'Baka! What do you know?' Zhao Yulun became even more irritated.
'Their goal for the monkey operation...' Zhang Yong hesitated. He was actually choosing his words carefully.
Previously, a Japanese spy had mentioned the magpie operation, which was to turn that lady.
So, was the monkey operation also to turn someone?
Zhang Yong didn't dare to be sure. But he could try to guess.
It didn't matter if he guessed wrong anyway.

'Baka! All of this was decided long ago. What are you talking about now?'
'No...'
'What do you mean no? At the beginning, you also agreed to choose the 66th Division of the Sichuan Army as the target of the counter-revolution. You also provided the information on Wang Kuayuan. Now you want to deny it?'
'No...'
Zhang Yong wanted to say something, but stopped himself.
He secretly remembered: So the content of the monkey operation was to subvert the 66th Division of the Sichuan Army!
That's outrageous. The Japanese spies have even reached Sichuan?
The 66th Division of the Sichuan Army was one of the main forces of the Sichuan Army. However, the Japanese spies' strategy was so long-term that it was also too exaggerated.
Restricting the Sino-Japanese War from breaking out, your hands have already reached Sichuan?
A flash of inspiration came to mind, and an excuse came to mind.
'Tell me. If you don't give us a reasonable reason, I won't agree.'
'Fine. In that case, I'll be blunt. We feel that the 66th Division of the Sichuan Army is too far away and has no impact on us at all. There is no need for us to spend a single penny on them.'
'Baka! This is the opinion of Kintaro Nogaya, isn't it?'
'...'
Zhang Yong remained silent.
I didn't say anything. Think for yourself.
Deliberately slinging mud at Kintaro Nogaya. Creating trouble for him at every turn.
Aren't you hiding? Fine, I'll just go out there and do everything in your name, swindle people, and make enemies for you. If you don't come out, the consequences will be uncontrollable!
"Baka!'
'Baka!'
Zhao Yulun was indeed furious.
He believed that this was what Kintaro Nogaya meant.
Otherwise, why would the current Li Wei say it? He was completely just a mouthpiece.
This is a change of heart!
This is betrayal!
It was a good plan, but halfway through its execution, something changed!
But he doesn't tell you. He secretly withholds your funding. What kind of behaviour is this? He really wants to smash Kintaro Nogaya's head.
Baka!
Damn it!
'We feel that the 21st Division is more suitable...' Zhang Yong unintentionally popped up again.
The 21st Division is stationed near Qingpu.
The deputy commander of the 21st Division is Li Xianzhou.
If the Japanese spy works on Li Xianzhou, he can just arrest him nearby.
Otherwise, he would have to travel all the way to Sichuan to the 66th Division's base. That would be a waste of time and energy. It's not cost-effective.
'Baka!'
'I disagree!'
Zhao Yulun flatly refused.
His work of turning people against the Japanese was already half done, so how could he give up now?
'You must make the payment according to the original agreement!'
'The remaining 13,000 taels of silver must be in place!'
Zhao Yulun was adamant.
Zhang Yong simply turned his face away.
What the hell, I don't care. Let him go against the heavens and the earth and the air.
There was silence.
The atmosphere was very unfriendly.
'Where are you from?' Suddenly, Zhao Yulun changed his tone.
'I already said, I'm not Japanese. I'm Chinese,' Zhang Yong answered lazily.
'Kintaro Nogata trusts you very much?'
'No!'
'Then how come you got the call?'
'Er...'
Zhang Yong gasped slightly.
Zhao Yulun then sneered. You're still lying? You're definitely Kintaro Nogaya's right-hand man.
He also concluded that this Li Wei was definitely Japanese. Belonging to the kind that lurked very early on. A Japanese spy who had completely Chineseised himself. They might not even speak Japanese. But they speak Chinese like a native.
These are the so-called new generation of spies. They have more skills than their predecessors.
Look at this Li Wei in front of you. His professional skills are amazing.
He recognised himself at once in the crowd on the second floor. Zhao Yulun had to admit that.
Many of these new-generation spies were trained on Chinese soil. From the time they could remember. There was hardly any Japanese influence.
'The 66th Division of the Sichuan Army will be turned in no time.'
'How much more do you need?'
'Fifty thousand taels of silver!'
'That much?'
'That's a whole division! 8,000 men!'
'No way. You're lying. A division of the Sichuan army has a maximum of 4,000 to 5,000 soldiers.'
'This division is Liu Xiang's main force. It has four infantry regiments and an artillery battalion. The actual number of soldiers is a full 8,000.'
'Really?'
Zhang Yong was doubtful.
Zhao Yulun immediately felt hopeful.
If he could persuade the little guy in front of him, perhaps he could get rid of Kintaro Nogata?
Or even...
His eyes lit up.
Perhaps he could support Li Wei and get rid of Kintaro Nogata?
If Li Wei became the head of the Kuaiji Organ, wouldn't it be much easier to talk to him?
'Li Wei-kun...'
'Hm?'
Zhang Yong was very confused.
What was this title?
'How long have you been in the Kuaiji Organ?'
'More than a year.'
'Not bad. You have a very bright future.'
'Hm?'
'Li Wei-kun, my name is Ikkō Ninen. I'm from Sapporo, Hokkaido.'
'I told you, I'm not Japanese.'
'I understand.'
Ikkō Ninen nodded.
Zhang Yong: ???
What do you understand?
What is there for you to understand?
How can I not understand?
"I've been in China for five years. I often miss my hometown.'
'Hm?'
'If there's a chance, I really hope that I can take you to my hometown to see it. There are the best ski slopes in the world there, and the best Ishikari hotpot in all of Japan. I'll personally cook you the best ramen, with the best hairy crabs, and the tastiest sweet corn.'
'Hm?'
Zhang Yong is confused.
What the hell is this guy talking about?
"That...'
'You don't need to say anything. I know. You have received special training. You must not show any signs of being Japanese. You have a very important mission. You will only be able to go back to Japan after the Holy War is over.'
'Huh?'
'But I have a way for you to go back soon.'
'Huh?'
The more Zhang Yong listened, the more he felt that something was not right.
What the hell is this guy trying to set up for himself?
