Chapter 471.
Two days later, a ship that sailed straight from Tokyo to Shanghai arrived at the dock at Wusongkou that the Japanese navy had invaded, in order to welcome the domestic delegation over.
The Japanese this time really did elaborate preparations.
To come are Japan’s domestic elite big names, any one of them out of order, the officials in Shanghai will not be able to eat.
Especially responsible for the security of the Japanese military police headquarters in Shanghai.
Therefore, except for those who were specially allowed, only Japanese were allowed to enter the pier, and from the pier to the Reicha Hotel, the gendarmes were mobilized to ensure the safety of the delegation.
Of course, the newspapers, mainly those under the control of the WANG, had already begun their campaign before the arrival of the delegation.
Such a high-profile delegation came from Japan and went to Jinling to participate in the ceremony of the return of the capital. Although it was not an official recognition by the Japanese government, this kind of recognition was also considered a disguised recognition of Wang’s government.
If there was not even this much hilarity, then Wang’s government would really be a joke.
There is also the delegation of the pseudo-manchu, however, they arrived in Shanghai a step earlier, and are already waiting, when a train to Jinling.
Cheng Mo’s special access card was obtained with Chiyoko’s help, and he was allowed to enter the Wusongkou wharf to meet the delegation.
The person he wanted to meet was only Morita Hideo alone, and he didn’t bother to recognize the others.
Although he was a member of the delegation’s family, he was still placed among the general welcoming crowd; this was not a private visit, so naturally official business was the main focus.
As the welcome tune was played.
The delegation headed by a count of the House of Peers slowly walked down through the gangway, and while walking, waved to the welcoming crowd on the shore.
Japanese people are generally not tall, especially when this person gets older, his bones and muscles shrink slightly, and he will be much shorter in his old age than in his young age.
This colorful short individuals down from the high gangway, it really looks like a group of monkeys walking down.
This kind of observation could only be kept in the heart, saying it out loud would surely get one’s ass kicked, especially under the circumstance of being surrounded by Japanese.
Cheng Mo and Chiyo didn’t want to stand out, and deliberately stood back a bit, otherwise, with his size, if he stood in the front of the welcome team, it would definitely be the existence of a flock of chickens.
Of course, even if he stood at the back, as long as he was familiar with it, he could recognize him at a glance, therefore, there was no fear that Morita Hideo in the delegation would not be able to recognize him.
Morita Hideo should be more than fifty years old, less than sixty, he has been in a good family since childhood, his head belongs to the tallest among the Japanese, reaching about one meter six five, in the era when the common Japanese men are only one meter five or so, he is also considered tall.
So, Chiyoko’s one meter six head, also inherited his height gene.
Bowler hat, tuxedo, civilized staff, and the trademark one upturned eight-pointed beard, attire with the mark of the times.
Dr. Morita carried a large suitcase at the end of the delegation, slowly walked over, eyes on the shore to search in the welcoming crowd, two years have not seen his daughter, as a father, he naturally misses this self-motivated, somewhat rebellious girl.
Seeing her father, Chiyoko instantly burst into tears, waving her arms vigorously, expecting her father to see her at the first opportunity.
Dr. Morita’s eyes had long since aged, but with the sense between father and daughter, he saw his daughter in the crowd at the first moment, as well as the tall and straight Cheng Mo standing at her side.
Hideo Morita revealed a childlike smile and also waved his arm high in the air at them to show that he saw them.
“Daddy sees us, daddy sees us ……,” Chiyoko excitedly turned her head and shouted at Cheng Mo.
“See, teacher saw us.” Cheng Mo showed a smile on his face, indicating that he had seen it.
“Cheng Mo-kun, we’ll go see dad in a little while, okay?” Chiyoko looked at Cheng Mo with a hopeful gaze and said. “I came over today, originally to meet my teacher.”
Receiving Cheng Mo’s affirmative answer, a hint of blush appeared on Chiyoko’s cheeks.
The visiting group had a specialized car to transport them without the need for outsiders to worry about it, and this was also a unified action to avoid accidents.
It must be guaranteed that nothing will go wrong after the delegation has participated in the ceremony of the change of the capital of the WANGZHOU.
After that, the members of the delegation should be able to move freely, after all, things are done, the big shots also need a little freedom, not easy to come to a trip, not many opportunities.
Seeing that the representatives of the delegation boarded the car specially arranged by the consulate, the welcoming crowd slowly dispersed, Cheng Mo also pulled Chiyoko, “Let’s go, let’s go to the hotel.”
While others might not be able to meet the members of the delegation, Chiyoko, as a daughter and a consulate staff member herself, was close to the water.
Even Cheng Mo was licensed to enter the Reicha Hotel.
If not for this relationship, even if he was a student of Morita Hideo, he would not be qualified to enter the heavily guarded Reicha Hotel.
The two of them drove to the Reicha Hotel, the delegates of the delegation had already checked in, and with many people staying at once, the hotel was very lively.
The two men brought along the small gifts they had already prepared and were ready to pay a visit.
They were stopped by the Japanese marines standing guard at the entrance, Chiyoko showed her special pass and checked her belongings before letting them in.
The hotel had already gotten the list of the visiting group and arranged the rooms, and once the people arrived, they were directly arranged to be given the keys and checked in.
The list and the room number, Chiyoko as a daughter is very clear, there is no need to check through the front desk, directly led Cheng Mo to room 206.
Morita Hideo was arranged to stay in this suite, he is a person, do not need to arrange how big the room, but he likes to see the river view, so, Chiyoko slightly moved, the father was arranged in this room facing the Huangpu River.
After two days of sitting on the boat, Morita Hideo was indeed a bit tired, and just after arriving at the hotel, he wanted to take a rest, after all, there was still a welcome reception specially arranged for them people in the evening.
Most of the delegation were old guys like him who were over fifty years old, and it would be too much for them not to rest.
He hadn’t been to China for many years, and this was a revisit of sorts, but he didn’t notice much change.
It is just sitting in the car just now, see the window in the distance of those broken walls and buildings, which makes him feel a lot of emotions.
Why did a good country have to go to war? In this way, how many people’s families were broken, how many people’s wives were separated.
The Huangpu River is still the same Huangpu River, the scene of thousands of sails on the river did not see, but to see the warships flaunting, flying the Japanese naval flag and national flag.
Standing silently in front of the window, a doorbell suddenly came from behind.
Someone was visiting.
Morita Hideo hurriedly turned around and walked over to open the door.
“Morita-sensei.”
