Chapter 309: Toiihara Kenji was not willing to accept defeat

Wusongkou, the Japanese-occupied dock.

After the end of the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese occupied part of the dock.

When the peace agreement was signed, the Japanese navy's battleships were eyeing the Wusongkou dock. Therefore, the Japanese-occupied dock was very large.

The dock where Zhang Yong and the others arrived earlier could only be considered an inner dock. It was located at the entrance to the Huangpu River.

The inner dock could only berth ships of less than 5,000 tons.

The real Wusongkou Dock was located north of the estuary of the Huangpu River. It could berth giant ships of 10,000 tons.

It had an excellent deepwater port. It could berth multiple warships of 10,000 tons.

At this moment, the Japanese navy already has a large number of sea monsters. The largest battleship has a displacement of over 30,000 tons. It can be said to be the premier maritime power in East Asia.

A Japanese heavy cruiser flying the flag of truce slowly docks.

Subsequently, a large number of Japanese people come off the ship. There are a thousand of them. Although they are all dressed in civilian clothes, they are orderly. Obviously, they have received some training. They have a certain foundation of military training.

They had all been transferred from the rear. The purpose was to supplement the needs of the various Japanese spy agencies.

They were greeted by Takeo Imai.

There was also the head of the Oran Agency, Teiga Kagezawa.

There was also the head of the Dan Agency, Takatsugu Wakamiya.

There was also the head of the Kusu Agency, Muta Moriguchi.

The new head of the Kirin Agency, Takeo Kishida.

Originally, the head of the Enju Agency's secret service, Kintaro Notani, was also supposed to be present. However, he never showed up.

Out of professional sensitivity, they all realised that something might have happened to Kintaro Notani. However, they sent people everywhere to ask around, but they couldn't find any accurate information. They didn't know whether Kintaro Notani was dead or alive.

Obviously, this was not a good thing.

'Hagah! Most likely, it was that Zhang Yong again!' Moriguchi Muta cursed angrily.

The others didn't say anything.

They were all extremely deep people and would not easily express their opinions.

If Kintaro Noya had been arrested, the backbone of the Aoi Agency would have been broken. This Aoi Agency relied heavily on the Noya family.

Now, one of the five brothers in the Noya family had already been arrested in Jinling. And now another had been arrested. And they were all the most central figures. It was like it had fallen apart.

It was a bit sad.

It hurt like something being hurt.

I couldn't help but think of the previous head of the Kirin Agency, Mataji Iwasaku.

Iwazaki was a very capable man. Under his leadership, the Tongren Agency was very strong in terms of both size and strength.

Before, the Tongren Agency's performance was also very outstanding. It was the leader of all the agencies.

Unfortunately, it was Zhang Yong who came.

This guy seems to have a grudge against the Japanese. He specializes in arresting Japanese people.

The Tongren Agency encountered him, and he was caught in pieces, and is now almost in a state of disintegration. Takeo Kishida was unable to recover at all.

It's only been a few months!

The Kirishima Agency has fallen to such a state.

In the end, Iwasaku Mataji was also killed by Zhang Yong.

He was a major general!

He's dead.

And he was killed on his own turf.

It's so humiliating.

It's so frustrating.

Isogai Rensuke berated them.

Their superior, Doihara Kenji, was also very annoyed.

This time, Doihara Kenji came to Shanghai specifically to reorganise all the secret agencies.

He wants to reinvigorate all the secret service agencies.

He wants to make the Fuxing Society his subordinate.

With his help, people are being transferred directly from the mainland. From Fengtian (Shenyang). From Xinjing (Changchun). The intention is to greatly strengthen the power of the various secret service agencies.

The military is not willing to accept defeat.

Kenji Toihara is not willing to accept defeat.

However...

The people have arrived.

Can they really change the situation?

They were all a little dejected, despite their previous high spirits. They didn't know how to break the deadlock.

Assassinate Zhang Yong?

Of course. It had already been arranged.

But there was no opportunity!

That guy almost never acted alone. He was always surrounded by a large group of people. It was very difficult to assassinate him.

Moreover, that guy's whereabouts were also unpredictable.

There was no pattern. There was no trace to follow.

Normal analysis and induction are completely useless for him. It feels like Zhang Yong's thinking is not normal, and he does almost everything in a chaotic manner.

He feels like a psychopath, doing things in a haphazard manner.

The Japanese spies in charge of analysing Zhang Yong's movements have all become mentally unbalanced themselves.

'Are the negotiations still ongoing?'

'Of course.'

'Unfortunately, the list of people involved has grown again.'

'Yes!'

Then there was a long silence.

No one wanted to speak again.

The main reason was that they just didn't have the energy. They didn't know where to start.

Especially the new head of the Kirigane Secret Service, Takeo Kishida, just wanted to strike when faced with the mess.

There was no one to call in.

There was no money.

Especially the second point was very fatal.

Previously, the operation of the Kirigane Agency was based on many funding pools.

Having money made things easier.

As long as there was money, everything could be done in China.

The problem was that there was no money now.

So it's impossible to move. Nothing can be done.

Not to mention turning people over. Even maintaining the most basic day-to-day relationships is impossible.

The targets they want to win over or turn are all very realistic. Without money, they immediately distance themselves from you. They won't even meet with you.

Damn it...

Takeo Kishida really wanted to swear.

If swearing could eliminate Zhang Yong, he would swear 80,000 times a day.

Damn it.

He couldn't keep up with the other party's rhythm at all.

And he can't figure out Zhang Yong's pattern of movement at all. He can't predict his next move.

All the escape measures after exposure seem to be useless.

The safe house is not safe at all.

No matter how well you hide, it seems that the other party can always find you.

He doesn't even know how his own people were exposed. There is no trace at all.

What a terrifying opponent.

The most terrifying thing is that he doesn't understand the other party at all.

Headache...

What kind of opponent is this?

'Die!'

'Die!'

He could only curse inwardly.

If only cursing would work.

...

'Achoo!'

'Achoo!'

Zhang Yong sneezed continuously.

His legs felt weak as he walked down the stairs.

Alas, really...

Beauty really doesn't work. It will sap the body.

Even though he knew she was a Japanese spy, he couldn't help but go all out. As a result, he felt weak in the hands and feet. He broke out in a cold sweat.

But he was afraid to fall asleep next to her. He was afraid she would kill him.

So after they were done, he left immediately.

He didn't want to give her the chance to kill him.

This is what they call being careful is better than being safe...

Back at the hospital.

Up to the third floor.

The injured girl is in room 305.

In this era, the slightly more luxurious hospital rooms are all single rooms.

Since he is the one who injured himself, naturally he has to let someone else stay in a single room. The same thing happened with the man last time.

But Zhang Yong is a double-dealing hypocrite. Men who are injured are not allowed to visit. Only pretty girls have this privilege. Who in the Fuxing Society doesn't know that he is greedy and lustful?

There is no one outside the door.

After the person was sent here, the operation was completed.

Because no vital organs were injured, the operation went smoothly. The bullet was removed.

However, the injured person's body is still relatively weak.

Never mind, go in.

Get ready to stage a story of the grievances and hatred of the talented men and beautiful women of the Republic of China.

The result...

The girl saw him in a daze and her face immediately turned even more pale. She also started to tremble.

Zhang Yong: ...

Hey. Beautiful girl. There's no need for that.

Are you still scared? I really didn't mean to kill you. I just wanted to wound you.

However, the other party was still in a state of extreme fear.

Helpless, Zhang Yong had to back out. Shaking his head. Sigh. I guess her internal demons are a bit difficult to deal with.

Okay, find someone to look after her.

Call Pei Lan.

But the person who answered the phone was Pei Xue again.

'Where's your sister?'

'She's gone out.'

'What for?'

'I don't know. She didn't say.'

'Come over to Guangci Hospital for a bit.'

'Okay.'

Pei Xue was very obedient.

Zhang Yong put down the phone. He tilted his head. An absurd thought occurred to him.

Could it be that Pei Lan had gone to keep a gigolo?

Then he pinched his own ear.

What was he thinking?

How dare she?

She is a member of the Fuxing Society. She is a ruthless murderer.

If she really wasn't afraid of death, she wouldn't have actively courted him in the first place. So, unless she wants to die, how could she possibly go to another man?

However, if it is true, he doesn't care.

It was a fleeting relationship anyway. She also has the freedom to pursue happiness. She only needs to tell him.

Then she will be completely empty-handed...

Relying on her own abilities to make money to support her young man, no one can say anything, right?

'Report!'

Zhongyang came over.

He was accompanied by a somewhat dishevelled guy.

It wasn't an outsider. It was Zhou Wancan. His face was bruised. His whole cheek was swollen like a pig's head.

'What happened?' Zhang Yong was puzzled.

'They all disobeyed me,' Zhou Wancan wanted to cry, 'they all beat me.'

'What do you mean?'

'I said I wanted to be the head of the Tien-Di Gang, and everyone else banded together to beat me...'

'You didn't fight back?'

'There were too many of them. They were so fierce. I couldn't beat them.'

'Hm...'

Zhang Yong was speechless.

Okay. He had been thinking too simply.

It seems that the struggle for supremacy within the Tien-Di Gang is also very fierce!

Zhou Wanchan was on his own, with no one backing him up, and it was indeed difficult for him to rise to power. Unless he could eliminate all his competitors...

'They're still after me...'

'Behind us?'

'I've finally managed to lose them...'

'Calm down. Follow me. I'll make sure you're fine.'

'Me, me, me...'

'Why don't you just come work for me! Are you interested in joining the Fuxing Society?'

'I...'

'Stop stalling. Are you in or out?'

'In...'

Zhou Wanchan had no choice but to agree.

He really had no other way out. He was blocked by everyone else.

Joining the Fuxing Society might still give him a chance.

'Good, follow me from now on!' Zhang Yong assured him, "I'll get you started when you get back.'

'Sigh..." Zhou Wanchan still looked apprehensive. He felt aggrieved.

It was all Zhang Yong's fault. He killed people at the drop of a hat.

I'll take you to see the head of the Fuxing Society. And you ended up killing the head of the Fuxing Society. And I had to take his place.

Do you think this is child's play? Is it that easy?

Now it's fine. You've made yourself all alone with nothing. Only by joining the Fuxing Society can you survive.

'Take it!'

Zhang Yong handed the other person a revolver.

Zhou Wancan hesitated for a moment before finally taking it. From now on, he will change his identity.

From now on, he will no longer be a member of the Tien-Di Gang.

He will be a member of the Fuxing Society.

'By the way, there's something...' Zhou Wancan suddenly said.
