The dark dungeon was filled with a chilling atmosphere. A shirtless Japanese man held a whip in his hand, and the walls around him were filled with torture instruments. The person tied to the wall was a young man less than 30 years old. His name was Mu Hefeng, one of the few survivors of the underground organization in Pingan County.
In addition to the interrogators and Mu Hefeng, who was beaten to the brink of death, there were two other people in the torture chamber. One of them was Shentou Watanabe, and the other was Qin Hong, the liaison who had betrayed him. Watanabe looked at Mu Hefeng, who was beaten half to death. This man was really stubborn. He had tried all kinds of methods, but he could not pry open his mouth.
"Qin Sang, do you have any other clues? My patience has a limit. If you can't provide any more valuable information, it will be very difficult for you to receive the treatment you have now. The Great Japan Empire would not raise a useless person.”Watanabe looked down on people like this the most, but as enemies, they were not bad. Otherwise, if everyone was like Mu Hefeng, would the Japanese Empire still have the chance to conquer China?
"Matriarch Watanabe, I will definitely find a way to pry open his mouth. Give me two more days, no, one more day.”Qin Hong had already betrayed the party and the country. If he was abandoned by the Japanese, he would probably die. Moreover, the treatment the Japanese gave him was not bad. He was now dead set on becoming a traitor.
"Do as you see fit. I want to know the results tomorrow.”Watanabe didn't have much hope. He had been under a lot of pressure recently, and he still didn't know what was coming.
After everyone left, Qin Hong looked at Mu Hefeng and said," Brother, why do you have to be so stubborn? As long as you say it, even if you don't have wealth and splendor, at least you'll be much better than before. Look at how comfortable I've been living in a small bungalow and even got a little girl to warm my bed.〃
Mu Hefeng smiled unkindly,"Traitor dog, when you have no value, it will be your death."”
"He Feng, I don't want to push things too far.”Qin Hong walked to Mu Hefeng's side and said in his ear again,"Don't forget, you still have a family."〃
"It's all my fault for misjudging you. I didn't expect you to be such a person.”Mu Hefeng spat out a mouthful of blood. This guy had betrayed the moment he was caught. He did not have any honor or achievements as an underground member at all.
"Why did we work so hard to hide? What can I get? I'm already tired of living like this, sneaking around like a mouse.”Qin Hong grabbed Mu Hefeng's hair roughly, and his face became ferocious as he said," If you want to be a martyr, I won't stop you, but if you dare to block my way of making money, don't blame me for being very angry."”
"Your son is almost five years old, right? Do you still remember the last time he called me uncle and sister-in-law? He's also very beautiful. I've always thought about him.”Different from Qin Hong, who was still single in his thirties, Mu Hefeng was a married person. He had even brought Qin Hong, who worked with him, to his house as a passerby.
"You are so despicable. Are you still human, you animal?”Mu Hefeng, who was beaten half to death, was most afraid of this. His wife and son were his lifeblood.
Qin Hong pinched Mu Hefeng and said," That's all because you forced me to. Why did you have to bear it? This place is good. I'll invite my sister-in-law here as a guest later." I'll find a few more grandpas to perform for you. Hu Zi asked me where his father went a few days ago. I'll bring him over later and let him take a good look at you!”
Bullets, threats, bribes, and torture did not break this man's will. However, humans always had weaknesses, and his weakness was his family. It had to be said that this was indeed a very cruel thing.
"You, don't make things difficult for them, I…”Mu Hefeng's attitude softened, and his steel-like will was also gradually corroded.
Qin Hong's slightly squarish expression became better and he replied," That's right. You're a smart person. Let's talk somewhere else later."”
Qin Hong left the cell and went to chase after Watanabe, who had just left.
"Qin Sang, why did you come out so quickly? Is there a result?" Watanabe asked.
"Yes, I believe we will be able to get the answer that Taijun wants to know later.”Qin Hong bent over and said.
Watanabe didn't ask how Qin Hong managed to find out. These Chinese people would always hold back if they didn't teach them a lesson.
In a private room on the third floor of Xianghe Teahouse, a few plainclothes teams with box cannons were standing outside the door. It was the three people mentioned above.
"Is Mu Sang's health alright? Let's go to the hospital in our headquarters later.”Watanabe said with a smile, as if Mu Hefeng's injuries had nothing to do with him.
These words made Mu Hefeng feel a little awkward. It was just that he could not straighten his back anymore.
"It's alright. I won't die." Mu Hefeng said.
"That's good. Qin Sang said that you're willing to cooperate. It really makes me happy. I still admire your courage.”Watanabe's smile looked quite sincere, or at least that was what he thought.
Mu Hefeng looked at Qin Hong, who was sitting opposite him, and lowered his head. After a few seconds, he raised his head and said," I don't know what the thing is either, but it should have been transported to another place. According to the instructions of the higher-ups, it should be in Xue Town. I don't know the exact people on the streets, but I heard Captain Qiu say that the street location should be a pawn shop!"”
"Seems like it? Can't you be sure?" Watanabe frowned. In their line of work, it was like this word. If they got it wrong, wouldn't they waste a lot of time?
"I think the shopkeeper's surname is Qi. That's all I know.”Mu Hefeng said.
"Qin Sang, take care of Mu Sang. I'm going to Xue Town.”Watanabe couldn't sit still anymore. His teacher had always had high hopes for him, but he hadn't achieved anything.
Watanabe didn't stop the entire way and went straight into the headquarters of the Japanese. The Ono Regiment was stationed in Pingan County. It was a field division, and there were almost four thousand people in total.
"Your Excellency, Watanabe-kun is here.”the aide said.
"Invite him in. You can leave first!”Ono said.
Watanabe walked in and bowed to Ohno before kneeling on the tatami.
"Watanabe-kun, I heard that you've been very active recently.”Ono wiped his sword. This was a gift from the Emperor. It was a supreme honor.
In the Japanese Military Academy, the top three students all had swords bestowed by the Emperor, which couldn't be compared to mass-produced goods.
"Yes, Your Excellency." Watanabe nodded.
"Your teacher has already sent me a letter, asking me to help you. At the same time, he also left you a message.”Ono replied as he sheathed his saber.
"Thank you, sir. I will definitely remember it.”
"You're welcome. You're a talent of the empire. Your teacher said that there's a saying in China that more haste, less speed.”
"Yes, I understand. This junior has a request." Watanabe didn't want to waste any more time and went straight to the point.
Ono waved his hand and said," Please go ahead."
"I have received intelligence that the 8th Route Army of Huaxia has transported a batch of supplies. It is very likely that they are at Xue Town now. I would like to ask the colonel to lend me a squadron of Empire soldiers.”Watanabe immediately knelt down, his head touching the tatami.
"Is that so? It just so happens that the regiment commander wants us to be the vanguard to clean up the base of the 8th Route Army in a few days. The soldiers are also ready, so I'll let Goto-kun's brigade set off with you.”The Japanese commander planned to let the Goto Battalion scout first and act as the vanguard.
