Chapter 611 We Are Here to Watch the Fun
Is it everyone present or someone else?
"How can he be so shameless." Sakatan Seishirō recalled the Prime Minister's words and slammed the table in anger.
This is a multiple-choice question. No matter how you choose, you seem to be stuck in a quagmire.
If they investigate the patrol and nothing happens, they are treating the Empire as fools. If they don't investigate and something happens, it means the Empire is arrogant and doesn't take them seriously.
What's even more terrifying is that if they went on patrol to investigate and it still exploded, that would be even more terrifying. It would be the incompetence of everyone present.
"Yeah, how could he be so shameless."
"I've never seen anyone like this before. They're deliberately trying to fool us."
……
The Prime Minister didn't want to hear any of this. He knocked on his desk and looked at the army men. "Everyone, we're running out of time. We still don't know where he's been, how many bombs he's deployed, how many poison gas bombs he's used, so I want to remind you of one thing. If this matter isn't resolved quickly, we won't be able to explain ourselves to His Majesty, and we won't be able to explain ourselves to the people either."
Having said that, he stood up and looked at the crowd whispering among themselves before saying, "If your opponent does something at this moment, I don't think that's what you want to see."
navy.
Everyone's mood instantly dropped to the lowest point.
Yes, the Navy might do something about this. They have never given up and want to get back the money allocated to the Army.
"If you really want to drop a poison gas bomb on Mingzi's house, once it falls, the Nanzao family will collapse in an instant. There is a high probability that all the money and land will be divided up by those who are eyeing it covetously."
Although the Nanzō family was not a prominent family in Tokyo, anyone who could form a family in Tokyo had some wealth.
Xiao Ya could refuse it, but she wanted to leave something for the third brother.
Zhou Weiguo, who was standing at the door, turned around and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not that stupid to really wipe out the Nanzao family. Mingzi's father still has to go back to take charge of the situation."
"Then you..." Xiao Ya was confused. He had left a note for the other party yesterday, saying...
"I did leave a note, but I didn't say I was going to use poison gas." Zhou Weiguo pointed to the bomb on the edge of the table by the window. "Later, you and Mingzi go and set off the bomb."
"It's not easy to put it in." Minamizō Akiko, wearing a light white kimono, walked to Zhou Weiguo and Xiao Ya.
Xiao Ya put the basket down from her hand and asked, "Have they increased patrols?"
"There are quite a few plainclothes officers. In addition, my uncle has mobilized a number of people. They disguise themselves as vendors and passersby, and keep a close watch on the surroundings. We can evade their inspection, but removing the bomb will easily expose us."
"Drink some water." Xiao Ya handed her the tea bowl and dragged a stool over for Mingzi to sit on. Then she turned around and said to Zhou Weiguo, "Awen, it seems that this time, we are afraid that we will have a hard time."
"Is it a bit troublesome?" Zhou Weiguo nodded and squatted beside him, thinking for a while before saying, "Oh, I remember..."
It's already eleven o'clock. According to the content on the note, if there is a bomb here, there is only one hour left before the explosion.
Yamaguchi Ichiro rubbed his sore eyes and glanced at a major beside him. "Does each group have any report?"
"Colonel, everything is normal. Our people even disguised themselves as garbage collectors and searched all the trash cans around us, but they didn't find anything unusual."
"Well," Yamaguchi Ichiro said, standing up and walking to the window, he looked at the nearby Nanzo family for a moment and said, "Do you think that person would really place a bomb here?"
"Colonel, no enemy would ever truly tell the other side their plans. From what I'm familiar with, this is just a feint. Perhaps their real plan is to move in another direction."
"Yeah, we all think so. But I don't know what perspective the higher-ups are thinking from. Don't they know that the moment they decided to investigate this place, they were already labeled fools?"
Ichiro Yamaguchi couldn't figure it out, and neither could the people present.
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. Let me do the hard work and check it again. Don't let me off the sewer either."
After another round of interrogation, there was still no result. Yamaguchi Ichiro turned his head and looked at the adjutant beside him. "Let's eat. How could the enemy be so stupid as to actually plant a bomb here? Only a bunch of idiots like us have let them fool us."
The adjutant nodded, then went downstairs to order a table of food. After thinking for a moment, he said to the adjutant beside him, "Let the brothers eat too."
A tense atmosphere permeated the Prime Minister's office.
Everyone looked at the wall clock from time to time.
But among this group of people, there was an outlier. He did not seem nervous at all, but leisurely picked up the teacup and sipped the tea. From time to time, he looked at Seishirō Sakatan who was sitting opposite him.
"Sakata-kun, I think you should just follow his wishes and kill him. Using one person's death in exchange for the safety of the people of Tokyo and yourself, isn't that a good deal?"
Sakatan, who had just glanced at the clock, immediately looked at Yamamoto Isoroku, the Vice Minister of the Navy, who was sitting across from him, with malicious intent. "What do you mean?"
"Shouldn't he have killed them? Or rather, it was you who ordered the massacre of the people in the occupied area."
Yamamoto Isoroku said this, his eyes falling on Prince Asaka who was sitting across from him. "Oh, I forgot, Your Highness, you issued the same order back then, didn't you?"
Ha ha……
Prince Asaka had nothing to say. He had indeed issued many orders at the beginning, but this was not something he did alone.
"I remember your navy was rampaging through Xiaguan at the time, killing quite a few people."
"That's different. We're trying to intercept them, but you're killing the civilians in the occupied territories. If they think we're guilty, then they can judge and retaliate against us. We'll take responsibility for our actions."
"Okay." The Prime Minister knew that the navy people coming here today would not be able to do anything.
Just watch the joke, and you even come to mock him. His army is embarrassed, so does it really have no impact on your navy?
It's also something that doesn't require much attention.
Yamamoto Isoroku stopped talking and could only pick up the teacup again, look forward and click his tongue.
It's time to go, why hasn't it exploded yet? Is that guy getting scared? No, if he doesn't take action, how can we take action?
dong dong dong...
Twelve o'clock arrived. Everyone looked towards the closed door. Faint footsteps could still be heard.
