"Thank you, Mr. Inoue!" Ive Kotata bowed to Hiaki Inoue very respectfully.

For him, Hiaki Inoue has been in China for many years, especially in Shanghai for many years, and his understanding of Shanghai locality exceeded that of him. When he came to Shanghai, he met many heavyweight tasks of the Navy, including Mitsuki Mitsuki. They all recommended that he come to Shanghai. If he encounters any problems, he can go to Hiaki Inoue who has a close relationship with the Black Dragon.

"You and I are all working for the Great Japanese Empire, so there is no need to say these things. A smile appeared on Inoue Hiaki's pale face.

He has heard of the person in front of him. He is more arrogant than the sky and is considered a rising star in the domestic politics.

Making friends like this and making a good relationship will never harm you. Moreover, Eryu’s problem is also the problem he is facing now.

But he wasn't that urgent.

"Mr. Inoue, do you have time tonight? Oshita is the host..." Oshita Yu-Yve smiled enthusiastically.

"No need, I rarely eat outside. If Eryujun doesn't dislike it, he can go to me and sit there. I believe we will have a lot of common language."

"Thank you, Mr. Inoue." Yuki Kotatsu accepted the invitation happily.

That night, in addition to Yui Yove, Okada, the director of the Special High School, and Kosalo Okada from the Ume Agency, all came to attend the small party of Hiaki Inoue.

Although there are always conflicts between the Japanese mainland and the navy, and even times when they undermine each other, their interests are consistent in plundering China.

"Chief Director Okada, I heard that your Special High School Class has a close relationship with No. 76?"

"Haha, our Special High School and No. 76 are originally in a cooperative relationship. It is difficult to deal with the Chongqing rebels in Shanghai alone with the strength of our family." Okada smiled slightly, "General Kurihara has a more say in this regard.

"Yes, No. 76 has been hitting Chongqing elements active in the concession recently, which has helped stabilize Shanghai's political and economics." Kurihara nodded, "So, the base camp will provide greater support for No. 76."

"Is No. 76 doing tungsten ore business with the Germans?" Yu Yu asked suddenly.

This is a sensitive topic.

The Japanese Navy also needs tungsten ore. Whether it is shipbuilding or gunmaking, tungsten alloys are indispensable materials. In addition to tungsten, there are also resources such as manganese and nickel. This is the purpose of Yeyu Yuyi's visit to Shanghai to establish Yeyu Foreign Company.

Collect these materials for the Japanese Navy.

"Germany is our ally. Selling some tungsten ore to meet its own needs is also a kind of support for allies. It is more convenient to hand it over to the 76th operation." Kurihara Kosabura explained, "We have received acquiescence from the base camp."

"Then the source of this tungsten ore?"

"I don't know this. It's all coordinated by Miss Sakurako and the dispatching army." Kurihara Kosabura directly pushed the problem to Sakurako Ikeuchi.

Anyway, she didn't come.

"Is it the Sakurako, who had the Imperial Flowers who saved hundreds of merchant ships and warships in the Empire?" Yove Oshita's eyes shone brightly when he heard this.

"yes."

"Captain Kurihara, can you introduce it on your behalf?"

"Haha, Okada Kan is Miss Sakurako's direct boss. Mr. Okada wants to see Miss Sakurako, and he can solve it in one word." Kurihara Kosabura said with a smile.

"Secretary Okada?"

"Okata-kun, although Miss Sakurako is my subordinate, her time is controlled by her. If you want to ask for a meeting, it depends on her own wishes. However, I can mention your request to her. As for whether she sees you or not, I can't guarantee it." Okada was not proud of it at all. Sakurako Ikeuchi is a special existence in the Special High School Class. He, as the head of the Special High School, cannot interfere with the case handled by Special High School.

"Thank you."

...

Time flies, and finally on May 17th, a bad news came from the battlefield of the Zaoyi Battle. Chen Miao got up in the morning and had breakfast with Liang Xueqin.

Xiaoqi hurriedly came in from outside.

Now Xiaoqi masters the radio stations that are controlled by Xiaoqi implement a combination of mobile and fixed reports, so that no matter Japanese detection stations and radio direction finding vehicles, it is difficult to track the exact location. Xiaoqi goes out to exercise early every morning. In addition to wind and rain, the time for contacting Chongqing Bureau Headquarters and Queen has been changed to the morning.

"Third brother, something big happened, General Zhang Jinchen has died." Xiaoqi whispered in Chen Miao's ear.

"When did it happen?" Chen Miao's hand trembled when he heard this, and half of the fried dough sticks held on the chopsticks fell on the table. The news came too suddenly.

"It was four o'clock yesterday afternoon." Xiao Qi said.

Chen Miao couldn't help but feel sad. He and General Zhang had never known each other, but on the battlefield of Sino-Japanese war, no lieutenant general had died directly.

General Zhang is the first person.

It can be seen how tragic and tragic this battle was!

General Zhang used his death to avenge his previous shame and completely washed away the reputation of "not resisting".

"What's wrong? Third brother, you look wrong. Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Liang Xueqin saw that Chen Miao was in a different state and asked with concern.

"It's okay, this egg is very nutritious, you can eat another one."

"No, I've eaten a lot, and if I eat it, I can't bear it." Liang Xueqin's appetite was particularly good after the morning sickness period. Now she is 20 kilograms heavier than before pregnancy. This has not been given birth. It is estimated that it will be fine to gain 30 kilograms before delivery.

"I'm full and go to work." Chen Miao quickly finished drinking the porridge in the bowl, then put down his chopsticks and said.

"There is half a fried dough stick..."

Chen Miao had already walked to the door, took his coat and was about to go out. Xiao Qi followed closely and followed him out, and the car stopped at the door.

"Set out and go to No. 76." Chen Miao ordered. If such a thing happens, he must go to No. 76.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered the gate of No. 76, I felt that the atmosphere inside was a bit solemn. Obviously, the news had reached Shanghai.

A lieutenant general commander died on the battlefield, which would definitely be a huge blow to Chongqing, and it would easily cause revenge from the other party in the future.

Not only on the frontal battlefield, but also on the battlefield behind enemy lines may also trigger a chain reaction.

The atmosphere at No. 76 is so solemn, which shows that this matter is extraordinary.

Sure enough, not long after No. 76 Chen Miaogang Road, Lin Shiqun sent someone to notify the directors of various departments and the heads of department-level institutions to the conference room for a meeting.

The meeting lasted for a whole morning. The key topic of the meeting was to be vigilant and strictly prevent the two regimes from carrying out retaliation actions within the concession.

Although the chance of this situation occurring is not high, it is true that who knows whether it will trigger such a chain reaction and take measures in advance.

"Director, I have too many part-time jobs now, especially now I am serving as the deputy director of the General Political Police Department. It is really difficult to take into account some jobs. I want to resign from the position of Director of General Affairs and ask the Director to choose another wise man." After the meeting, Chen Miao followed Lin Shiqun into the office.

"Well, what's the right person?"

"this……"

"If you want to resign, you must recommend a suitable candidate to me, right?" Lin Shiqun said.

"Du Qingyan, Assistant Director of Ability, is fully qualified for this job, but his qualifications are slightly worse, and if he is raised at once, it will be too fast..." Chen Miao said.

"Deputy Director Nati is temporarily in charge of the work of the General Affairs Office. After waiting for a while, he will look at his work performance. If it is appropriate, he will be corrected. What do you think?" Lin Shiqun thought for a moment.

"The director's method is good, which not only ensures the smooth transition of the General Affairs Office, but also allows capable people to see the hope of rise." Chen Miao flattered.

"I believe you have a good view of people, but Du Qingyan is more square and not smooth. The General Affairs Office is the main housekeeper of No. 76. This position requires not only ability, but also knowledgeable and good at dancing. I am worried that he may not be able to adapt to it by then." Lin Shiqun said.

"If you are not in your position, you don't plan your politics. Du Qingyan used to be the head of the Personnel Department. This position was very important. If you can't keep a close eye on it, it would be very easy to have problems. Now that he has risen to the overall situation, it will inevitably be different. The General Affairs Office is to serve the entire No. 76, and to have someone who can do practical things steadily. If you only know how to dance well, then I am worried that the General Affairs Office will become his position to seek personal gain. Didn't Sun Shilin fall into corruption like this?" Chen Miao said.

"Well, what you said makes sense, let's do it. Let the office draft an appointment and issue it immediately." Lin Shiqun nodded. He now has full control of No. 76, and personnel appointments are just a matter of his words, and no one objected.

"By the way, you are still responsible for the safety of Professor Lan, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing, Professor Lan's family will go to Shanghai tomorrow. You can send someone to Wusongkou Wharf to pick it up, and then send it to Professor Lan's residence on Yuyuan Road." Lin Shiqun ordered.

"Family, isn't Professor Lan's family in the United States?" Chen Miao said in surprise.

"Oh, this is his family in Japan." Lin Shiqun explained, "You will know what's going on when you see them."

"Yes, did they come by boat?"

"Yes, it's just a troop transport ship. Professor Lan's family has two, Mrs. Haruko and Mrs. Lan Dong." Lin Shiqun said.

“Are there any photos?”

"No, but there is only this mother and son on the troop transport ship, which is easy to recognize." Lin Shiqun said.

"I know, I will send someone to pick him up tomorrow and send him directly to Professor Lan's residence." Chen Miao nodded and agreed. Lan Yuhai actually had a Japanese wife and son. No wonder why he had to go to Japan when he returned to Shanghai.

But why did he come to Shanghai?

There must be some unknown secrets here. Chen Miao has no intention of exploring other people's privacy, but Lan Yuhai is an expert in coin making, which makes Chen Miao have to figure out what's going on here.
