Chapter 426
BETRAYAL OF THE COUNTRY** It was said like a joke, but it had to be carried out with great care.
Two people did not sleep all night, has been discussing how to get Yamamoto Kazuo.
Zhu Yuyan: “First of all, make sure that he won’t turn around and sell the matter of you betraying the state** to Japan.”
Su Chunjun: “Second, is to make him believe that I will really betray the Gu**.”
None of this was very easy.
The first problem, because they couldn’t accurately predict Yamamoto Kazuo’s thoughts and movements.
Although he was no longer in a specific position in the Japanese military now, he must still be very influential in the Japanese military. According to the information that Zhao Shuli had retrieved earlier, Kazuo Yamamoto had a “Yamamoto Gang” or a group called “Yamamoto’s faction” in the Japanese military. The people in this group were all serving officers of Yamamoto’s lineage, and they all had intertwined relationships with Yamamoto.
After Yamamoto’s retirement, not all of the other officers in the Yamamoto gang retired or were reassigned, but most of them remained in their original positions, and a few of them were promoted to higher positions.
Su Chunjun: “This should be a quid pro quo offered by Yamamoto before he retired, he did not leave without preparation, before he left, he must have prepared the Yamamoto gang officers for the next leader.”
There is no information as yet as to who this person is.
If Yamamoto Kazuo wanted to put Su Chunjun, an important person, to good use, even if he was about to die of illness, he could have left Su Chunjun to his successor.
Zhu Yuyan: “It would be too smooth if that happened.”
Su Chunjun: “He may not be able to believe that I will betray the state**.”
The two looked at each other and both sighed.
Who could be blamed for this? Blame the two of them for being too intent on fighting against Japan all this time.
Zhu Yuyan: “It’s normal for an organization like Guo ** to betray, right? You’ve been suppressed and abandoned here all this time, with no money, no soldiers and no manpower, I don’t think there’s any problem at all for you to betray, it’s normal.”
Su Chunjun: “Even if I would betray the country**, but to make him believe that I would betray the country,that’s not so easy.”
The two looked at each other again and sighed in unison.
Love is like a cough, it can’t be hidden.
How much the two of them loved this country, Kazuo Yamamoto must know it all.
Betraying the country** wasn’t hard to believe, but to believe that the two of them were willing to betray China was a bit ridiculous.
Zhu Yuyan thought for a moment and said, ”Otherwise, let’s think in another direction. What if we catch Yamamoto Kazuo in the act.”
Su Chunjun: “How do we threaten him if we seize the handle? Threaten him to let us join Japan?”
The two men paused at the same time.
…… seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
Zhu Yuyan followed closely and thought downward, “What are we going to do in Japan? Assassinate the Japanese Emperor?”
Su Chunjun: “What about seeking peace? If we intend to go to Japan and find a way to search for Japanese anti-war elements, is that plausible?”
At this point, Zhu Yuyan remembered a Japanese internet joke – Japanese Communism.
Zhu Yuyan said hesitantly, “It seems like there are communists in Japan.”
Su Chunjun did not respond, “What?”
Zhu Yuyan: “You heard it right, the Japanese commie** seems to be quite powerful, and the movement is quite famous.”
This is Su Chunjun’s knowledge blind spot.
He knew that there was the Comintern, and he knew that there were Comintern activities in various countries, but he was completely ignorant when it came to a specific country.
Su Chunjun made a note of this matter and decided to find a way to investigate it afterward. He had never doubted any of the words that came out of Yan Yan’s mouth, and although he was still in the dark as to where she had gotten the information from, he believed that the two were on the same path, and that they knew each other by heart.
Su Chunjun: “If that’s the case, then it would make sense for both of us to want to go to Japan.” Getting Yamamoto Kazuo’s confidence would also be possible.
The two were not clueless as to how to get hold of Yamamoto Kazuo.
Zhao Shuli was assassinated, and they hypothesized that it was because he was investigating the Japanese military.
After the police closed the streets that day, they didn’t catch any suspicious characters. But both the police captain and the security chief said that only Japanese people had left the neighborhoods they had blocked off. They had no authority to arrest the Japanese and had to let them go.
The rest of the ones they caught and brought back were some small hooligans, without any intelligence value.
Su Chunjun also interrogated again afterward the people from the Guo** censorship team who were held here, who were also intelligence officers, but they said they did not have the contact codes of the intelligence officers here.
The censors, in the torture room, said with pale faces, “The contact passwords are changed regularly, we only have the contact passwords for that one time at that time, and they are obsolete when used, and it is no longer possible to use the same set of passwords to call people out to ask for information, and what I said is true! Please believe me!”
After the assassination of Zhao Shuli, Su Chunjun firstly suspected the Japanese, and secondly suspected Guo**.
He got the inside information of the Gu** through his own means, and found that the Gu** also had two suspects for Zhao Shuli’s assassination.
The first was also the Japanese, and the second was him, Su Chunjun.
It seems that there was no order from within the Gu** to get rid of Zhao Shuli.
Zhao Shuli was already quite far away from the center of the Gu**, and the work he had done before his assassination all revolved around the city, and did not go deeper into the internal struggle of the Gu**.
To summarize, the possibility of an assassin being sent from within the Gu** to kill Zhao Shuli is lowered.
Su Chunjun: “If the Gu** side wants to kill someone, I think I should be in front of Zhao Shuli.”
Zhu Yuyan: “I think so. Then the one who assassinated Shuli should be Japanese, he must have touched some information that the Japanese didn’t want him to touch.”
Su Chunjun: “Before Shuli was assassinated, every time he went out to get information, he shared it with me, and there wasn’t anything classified in it.”
At that time, the state** side asked Zhao Shuli to continue to investigate the Japanese side leaked information itself is false, Zhu Yuyan and Su Chunjun two people made up together.
Since the intelligence itself was fake, Zhao Shuli simply couldn’t really investigate anything either.
Su Chunjun: “He also just went to eat and drink and pretended to be doing something.”
Zhu Yuyan: “This person, Shuli, does have some good enjoyment.”
The two men looked at each other and smiled bitterly as they remembered their old friend.
The two had long ago gone through all the intelligence that Zhao Shuli had gathered back then hundreds of times, and now that they thought about it, every page was clearly reflected in their minds.
Zhu Yuyan: “If we must say he was spying on something, it would be Suzuki Saburo.”
Suzuki Saburo was really spying a lot of information from the Japanese military, and sold it all as well. Compared to Zhu Yuyan’s blindly made up intelligence, Suzuki Saburo’s power as an assassin wasn’t small at all, she was a bit surprised, back then when she set Suzuki Yoshiko up she did think about pulling Suzuki Saburo, a Japanese man, down as well, but she didn’t expect the effect to be so good that she couldn’t help but rise up with the illusion that she was super powerful.
In the hands of Suzuki Saburo, just how many Japanese officers who had leaked information remained an unknown.
Because the Japanese military didn’t seem to be planning on investigating this matter at all, at least Zhao Shuli hadn’t detected any whispers of a major review that the Japanese military had been engaging in lately when he communicated and exchanged information with the Japanese officers.
It was impossible to keep this kind of thing from people.
Just like when the Gu** engaged in internal party censorship, everyone heard about it.
Zhu Yuyan said, ”Could it be a secret investigation? The Japanese military has been conducting a secret investigation after realizing that the information was leaked, in order to avoid spooking the enemy.”
Su Chunjun: “This is not unlikely.”
Zhu Yuyan: “But if they suspected Zhao Shuli of being the one spying on the intelligence, why didn’t they take him back for interrogation and kill him instead?”
Zhao Shuli himself was shot several times, and almost all of his colleagues were treated as targets, this look is to exterminate, and did not even think of leaving a survivor.
Zhu Yuyan: “Could it be that the Japanese officer who leaked the information at that time was silencing him?”
Su Chunjun: “That could be the answer.”
Suzuki Saburo disappeared, and Suzuki Yoshiko and the rest of the family were all killed by fire.
Now Zhao Shuli could also be silenced for investigating Suzuki Saburo’s involvement with Japanese officers.
Obviously, the person behind the scenes doesn’t want this to be brought up again and wants to kill everyone who knows about it.
All of this points to one person.
Kazuo Yamamoto.
She said, “There is no doubt about Kazuo Yamamoto’s loyalty to Japan. But he shouldn’t be completely heartless to his family and dependents, and the family and the officers of the Yamamoto Gang should be the ones he wants to preserve.”
Su Chunjun: “Right. Not only did he want to preserve them, he should have also hoped that after he sacrificed his life for Japan, the family would receive a higher reward, for his sake.”
Zhu Yuyan: “Then, if a piece of information were to circulate at this very moment that Kazuo Yamamoto had betrayed Japan, leaked a large amount of Japanese information, and sold that information to the United States, it should be a major blow to him.”
Su Chunjun: “Then this intelligence should be released as a killer weapon after we have gained the confidence of Yamamoto Ichio, to further weaken his prestige and influence in the Japanese military.”
Zhu Yuyan picked up, “In that case, he will leave me and you for his successors to use.”
Su Chunjun: “Right. If the two of us need to use Kazuo Yamamoto’s influence to ascend to Japan and reach out to the Japanese Communist Party**, this is a huge handle that will allow Kazuo Yamamoto’s people to use us in turn.”
Zhu Yuyan made a joke, “Using each other is the beginning of a good friendship.”
Su Chunjun cupped a smile and nodded, “That’s right. We expressed our intention to utilize Kazuo Yamamoto’s family’s influence in Japan, and Yamamoto can utilize the influence we will have in the future within the Japanese Communist Party**. This way we have upgraded from a disposable item that can be sacrificed and sold out at any time to a long term stock to hold.”
Zhu Yuyan: “Right. In that case, even if I made any mistakes after going to meet Yamamoto, and there were some loopholes in what I said and did, then this would all be understandable, and even the matter of you having to change your surname to Yamamoto could be explained – do you still need to change your surname now?”
Su Chunjun thought for a moment and said, “Change it or not. We don’t know anything about the Japanese Commun**y, and we don’t know if they only accept Japanese people – since we have to lie we need to be more truthful. Assuming that the Japanese Communists** really need to change their last name in order to join, then I’ll change one, and it doesn’t necessarily need to be Yamamoto, it’s fine to have an individual last name, I guess, Japanese last names have always been quite messy.”
Zhu Yuyan: “Then this is something I’ll see what happens when the time comes. Anyway, our plan is that after you betrayed the country** you need to change the country to continue to save the country, you have your eye on the Japanese Communist** and intend to join, I as your wife naturally want to go with you, both of us are going to go to Japan, we will need the help of Kazuo Yamamoto. This is our purpose. Then in exchange for this, we can trade terms with Yamamoto Kazuo and see what he needs from us.”
Su Chunjun: “That should be all. You have to be more careful in addition to improvising. Talk to him as if this is all true like that, Yamamoto Kazuo may not believe you right away.”
Zhu Yuyan: “Then, you find a way outside to spread the word about Yamamoto Kazuo selling Japanese intelligence to the ears of the Japanese military-you have channels, right?”
In the past, they were channeling false information to the Japanese military through Zhao Shuli, the intelligence agency of the Gu**.
Now ……
Su Chunjun nodded affirmatively, “I have a way, don’t worry.”
Zhu Yuyan understood and nodded assuredly, “Good. Then, it’s all set.”
At this time, the sun had already risen outside the window, and the faintly bright daylight spilled in through the closed curtains.
