Chapter 1468 Araki: How come I don’t know?
Shuichi Yamazaki hurriedly spoke out to stop Asuka Iijima from opening the door, but it was too late.
Asuka Iijima had just opened the bolt when Kanae Kawai broke in.
She was also knocked back and almost fell to the ground.
"Mrs. Yamazaki, are you okay?" Li Tongyun bent down and reached out to support Asuka Iijima, but suddenly a dagger stretched out from her palm, and the sharp dagger gently scratched Asuka Iijima's white neck.
Asuka Iijima widened her eyes and looked at Kawai Kanae with disbelief and incomprehension.
"Madam, it doesn't hurt. It will be over soon." Li Tongyun gently placed Asuka Iijima on the floor.
Blood gushed out from Asuka Iijima's neck and soon dyed the floor red.
Li Tongyun turned and looked at Yamazaki Shuichi.
"Did Cheng Qianfan send you to kill me?" Yamazaki Shuichi tried to remain calm. "Did he not consider the consequences of doing so?"
"Mr. Cheng said that he won't be at peace unless you die." Li Tongyun said expressionlessly.
As she spoke, her brows furrowed slightly, "How did you find out?"
"Gunshots." Yamazaki Shuichi said, "Gunshots were heard just now. Normally, you shouldn't come looking for Asuka at this time."
"Or, even if you heard gunshots and still came here, you should be more worried about Asuka and would anxiously ask us if we were okay, instead of saying you wanted to pick up something you left behind at this time." Shuichi Yamazaki said.
"I see." Li Tongyun nodded thoughtfully, then she took out a Browning pistol from her arms and pulled the trigger at Yamazaki Shuichi without hesitation.
Bang bang bang.
Three shots, one hit the forehead and two hit the chest.
Then Li Tongyun walked closer and took out a very small and sharp blade from Yamazaki Shuichi's hand.
After doing all this, Li Tongyun entered the inner room, opened the drawer of the bedroom dressing table, took out the 'bait' letter used as a visit, put it directly on her body, and then turned and left.
Just at this moment, bang.
Suddenly a gunshot was heard outside the door.
Then there was a burst of gunfire, but it soon stopped.
……
When Yoshio Kakinuma heard the first gunshot coming from Shuichi Yamazaki's house, he was also shocked.
Did Kentaro Miyazaki really dare to shoot Shuichi Yamazaki?
He was still hesitating for a while whether to rush over and discover Yamazaki Shuichi's body as soon as possible, or leave quietly.
However, the door of No. 22 Xizilaihuoxing Street was soon seen opened, and Cheng Qianfan left surrounded by a group of guards, while a woman came out in a panic to close the door.
I could vaguely hear voices talking in the house.
Shuichi Yamazaki is still alive.
Kakinuma Yoshio breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, even if he was ordered by Araki Harima to kill Yamazaki Shuichi, if Miyazaki Kentaro dared to kill Yamazaki Shuichi in private, it would be a serious matter and he would report it to the captain immediately.
Fortunately, this situation did not occur.
Kakinuma Yoshio smiled bitterly. If that was the case, he would have to go and see Yamazaki Shuu off in person.
Yoshio Kakinuma lit a cigarette and counted silently. He planned to wait for five minutes before going into the house to do anything.
When a person escapes from danger, he will still remain vigilant. However, in the case of Shuichi Yamazaki, this vigilance is at its peak within five minutes. After five minutes, he will subconsciously relax, thinking that the most dangerous moment has passed.
This is the experience that Yoshio Kakinuma figured out and summarized on his own.
Just at this time, he saw a woman in kimono walking out of the night and hurriedly coming to the door of Yamazaki Shuichi's house. Kakinuma Yoshio couldn't help but frown.
Who is this woman?
What is the relationship with Shuichi Yamazaki or Asuka Iijima?
Why does it appear here?
When will you leave?
Yoshio Kakinuma realized that the appearance of this female compatriot would cause trouble to him, because after seeing the situation in the room, this woman would definitely not leave and would help Asuka Iijima deal with the situation.
suddenly.
Bang, bang, bang. Three gunshots were heard.
Kakinuma Yoshio was stunned, and then he realized what was happening.
Is this someone sent by Cheng Qianfan to kill Yamazaki Shuichi?
Or was it some other force, or even anti-Japanese armed forces, that came to kill Shuichi Yamazaki?
After a moment's hesitation, Kakinuma Yoshio rushed out with a pistol in his hand. He wanted to catch this woman. As for what kind of power this woman belonged to, he didn't care. For him, all he had to do was hand this woman over to Captain Araki.
Just at this moment, a gunshot was heard and Kakinuma Yoshio, who was running, was shot in the shoulder.
He endured the pain from the gunshot wound, rolled on the ground, hid in the corner, and fired back at the place where the gunman fired.
Then, soon, Kakinuma Yoshio was turned into a hornet's nest.
Li Tongyun came out and saw a man huddled in the corner. She subconsciously raised her gun.
"Dead!" a voice rang out, "Retreat!"
The two men climbed over the wall and entered the alley next door, then turned into another alley halfway. After quickly walking out of the alley, they got into the car that had been waiting for them and soon disappeared into the night.
And in the middle of the night behind, a hurried whistle sounded, and West Train Street was already in chaos.
……
Maybeach Road.
A Shikumen dwelling.
Li Tongyun reported the course of action to Qiao Chuntao in great detail.
Qiao Chuntao would also interrupt her and ask for more specific details.
"Very good." Qiao Chuntao nodded. "You were able to rush in immediately after realizing that your identity had been discovered. You were very decisive."
As she spoke, Qiao Chuntao showed a hint of approval on her face, "Do you know what I admire most about you?"
"Kill Asuka Iijima." Li Tongyun said calmly.
"Yes." Qiao Chuntao smiled, "You were able to kill Iijima Asuka with a dagger the first time you entered the room. You did a good job."
He shook his head. “Remember, for us, for our own safety, there is no such thing as innocent people.”
His voice was extremely cold. "Besides, all Japanese deserve to die."
"Yes." Li Tongyun said.
"But..." Qiao Chuntao's face darkened, "You talk too much. You shouldn't have said so much to Yamazaki Shuichi. After killing Iijima Asuka, you should have shot and killed Yamazaki Shuichi directly. Acting decisively and evacuating decisively is the most correct choice."
"I'm just curious and want to know how Yamazaki Shuichi saw through me." Li Tongyun defended.
"Remember this: curiosity is often a death warrant for us." Qiao Chuntao said coldly, "If you are curious about these things, just come back and ask me, and I will naturally give you the answers."
"I know I was wrong." Li Tongyun said.
"Who do you think the gunman who appeared later was from?" asked Qiao Chuntao.
"It's hard to say." Li Tongyun thought and shook his head, "Could it be Cheng Qianfan's people?"
As she said this, she looked at Qiao Chuntao, "After I entered the house, Yamazaki Shuichi mistakenly thought that I was sent by Cheng Qianfan to kill him, so I simply admitted it and let him misunderstand."
"Well done." Qiao Chuntao looked happy and nodded slightly.
Li Tongyun didn't notice that Qiao Chuntao's smile was a little weird.
……
Inoue Hiko was holding a walking stick in his hand, wearing a loose kimono and a fur coat. He looked at the bodies of Shuichi Yamazaki and Asuka Iijima with a gloomy face.
"Asuka Iijima had her throat cut with a sharp dagger and died from excessive blood loss." The coroner of the Inoue Mansion, Kaichiro Nishioka, told Inoue Hiko.
"Deputy Director Yamazaki was shot four times, one in the head, two in the chest, and one in the calf," said Nishioka Kaichiro. "Except for the one in the calf, the other three were fatal. Any one of them was enough to kill the deputy director."
"In addition--" Nishioka Kaichiro said, "the deputy director's face is swollen and traumatized, his nose is broken, and the corner of his mouth is also broken."
As he spoke, he unbuttoned Shuichi Yamazaki's clothes, took a closer look, and said, "The deputy director has severe bruises on his chest."
"I suspect that the deputy director was tortured by the enemy before he was killed," said Yoshiichiro Nishioka.
Inoue Hiko's face was gloomy. He bent down and carefully examined, even rubbing his hands to study the four bullet holes on Yamazaki Shuichi's body. "Your judgment is correct."
Inoue Hiko said, "Yamazaki-kun was shot in the calf first, and the next three shots killed him."
"Director, do you mean that the bullet wound to the calf was also part of the torture of the deputy director?" Nishioka Jiaichiro thought for a moment and said, "Then, the enemy must have gotten the answer they wanted, or they didn't get any intelligence. In short, they finally chose to kill the deputy director, and even inhumanely killed an innocent woman."
Inoue Hiko nodded slightly.
Just at this time, the men who were checking the body of another deceased person outside the door came back.
"Kanda, tell me your judgment first." Nishioka Kaichiro looked at his assistant with encouraging eyes.
"Hai!" Kanda Kijiro nodded and said, "The deceased was shot multiple times and died miserably."
He looked at Inoue Hiko and reported, "The deceased must have been in a gunfight with someone, but he was quickly shot to death by the other party."
"In your opinion, is this person in the same group as the one who killed Yamazaki-kun?" Inoue Hiko asked.
"It shouldn't be." Kanda Kijiro said, "The location where the deceased died, the muzzle of his gun was not pointed towards the inside of the house, but more like he was resisting an attack from the outside."
"Director, what Kanda said is correct." Nishioka Kaichiro supported his assistant's judgment and said, "The deputy director and Asuka Iijima were the only two people in the house. They died inside the house. There was no sign that they fired back. The deputy director's gun was still in the drawer and had not been fired. Therefore, it is impossible for someone inside the house to attack someone outside."
Kanda Kijiro said with a serious expression, "So, the deceased outside the house was indeed more likely to have been killed by a gunman. He was most likely here to protect Deputy Director Yamazaki."
"Is he one of ours?" Inoue Hiko said in a deep voice.
Inoue Mansion has grown rapidly in recent years. Therefore, even as the director of Inoue Mansion, he is unable to recognize all of his subordinates.
"I've already ordered an investigation." Kotaro Yano said quickly.
……
Just at this moment, there was a commotion and noise outside.
"Director, the military police and the Special Higher Police are here." An agent from the Inoue Mansion came in and reported.
"Let them in." Inoue Hiko pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.
……
"Captain Araki arrived so quickly?" Inoue Hiko glanced at Araki Harima.
"Director Inoue." Araki Harima said with a serious expression, "I heard that Deputy Director Yamazaki was in trouble. I didn't dare to delay and rushed here urgently."
As he said this, he took a look at the situation in the house, but his face darkened, "Bagu Yaluo! This is a man without any humanity."
"Captain Araki, let you check the house first. I'll go check out the body outside." said Shinichiro Kojima of the military police.
Araki Harima nodded slightly. He came to the body of Yamazaki Shuichi, squatted down to check, but his expression became more and more solemn.
"The murderer's shots were deadly, and his purpose was clear, which was to kill Deputy Director Yamazaki." Araki Harima said, "Director Inoue, how much do you know about Deputy Director Yamazaki's possible enemies?"
"Captain Araki means that this is a homicide?" Inoue Hiko frowned and asked.
"It's just a possibility. The other party seems to hate Deputy Director Yamazaki to the core." Araki Harima said, "Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that it was done by anti-Japanese elements. They also have extreme hatred towards the imperial personnel."
"Captain Araki, please come here." Shinichiro Kojima exclaimed outside.
Araki Harima immediately walked out quickly.
"What's wrong?" Araki Harima asked in a deep voice.
"Captain Araki, look..." Kojima Shinichiro pointed at the male corpse on the ground.
"What?" Araki Harima immediately recognized the person who was shot dead. It was his own subordinate Kakinuma Yoshio. He was extremely shocked. He took two steps forward, bent down and carefully examined the bullet holes on Kakinuma Yoshio's body, but his face became more and more gloomy.
"Captain Araki knows this person?" Inoue Hiko asked immediately.
"He's from our Special High Section." Araki Harima's face was grim, his voice filled with hatred and anger, "This man is my subordinate Kakinuma Yoshio!"
He suddenly looked at Inoue Hiko, "Director Inoue, how come my people are here, and they were shot multiple times and brutally killed?"
Inoue Hiko was almost suffocated. He hadn't even asked Araki Harima yet, but Araki Harima questioned him instead.
Fortunately, after investigating the scene, it was basically confirmed that Kakinuma Yoshio of the Special High Section died to protect Yamazaki Shuichi. Thinking of this, Inoue Hiko's attitude softened a lot, and he was not really angry because of Araki Harima's rudeness.
"Araki-kun." Nishioka Kaichiro, who was somewhat familiar with Araki Harima, said, "Based on the investigation at the scene, we can basically confirm that your people fired shots and fought with the enemy when Yamazaki Shuichi was killed, and unfortunately died in the end."
Hearing what Nishioka Kaichiro said, Araki Harima couldn't understand it anymore. He looked at the people in Inoue Mansion and said, "My people are protecting Yamazaki Shuichi? How come I didn't know?"
