Chapter 442 Chessboard
Master Niu was now extremely anxious, having no idea when Zhao Xuan would be able to switch back with him.

Most importantly, Lin Jieru couldn't go with them, so Master Niu was panicked and uncertain.

In addition, Master Niu doesn't speak Japanese. Fortunately, Zhao Xuan doesn't usually speak Japanese when chatting with these people, otherwise Master Niu would probably explode on the spot.

Moreover, Master Niu is currently cursing Zhao Xuan in his heart.

For no other reason than that Zhao Xuan is such a bastard, he's provoked so many Japanese women.

With Michiko Sakai sitting opposite him, Master Niu didn't dare to look at her even once.

Seeing Michiko Sakai's burning gaze, Master Niu secretly groaned inwardly.

After a two-day, one-night journey, Master Niu didn't know how he could keep going.

Fortunately, Yua Murakami received an assignment just before boarding the train to repair the direction finder for the Special Higher Police, so she couldn't leave. Otherwise, Master Niu wouldn't know how to deal with these two Japanese women.

On the other hand, Mizuki Uchiyama didn't say a word from beginning to end; this is the kind of teammate Master Niu longed for.

Someone like Michiko Sakai is simply too much to handle.

Yamayuu Kazuo glanced at Sakai Michiko, then looked at Zhao Xuan, who was turning his head to look out the car window, and said to Michiko with displeasure:
"Hey!"

"Miss Michiko, why are you staring at Zhao Sang like that?"

Michiko rolled her eyes at Yamayu Kazuo, wondering what this brute knew.

"Yamao-kun, you must know that Zhao Sang saved my life before, right? If it weren't for Zhao Sang, I would have died long ago, and I would have died from that hateful Sheshan virus. That kind of death would be an insult to me!"

Yamayu Kazuo snorted coldly:
“Michiko, I don’t care what you’re thinking, but you should know that Zhao Sang has a wife.”

Michiko chuckled and ignored Yamayukazu.

Master Niu, on the other hand, turned around and gave Yamao Kazuo a look that said, "Well done."

Yamayu Kazuo arrogantly raised his chin, indicating to Zhao Xuan not to worry, that he would take care of everything and would not give Sakai Michiko any chance along the way.

After the train attendant brought dinner, everyone ate a bite, but Master Niu really couldn't stay there any longer, so he got up and walked towards his sleeper compartment.

Michiko immediately stood up, and Yamayu Kazuo also stood up at the same time, stepping forward to block Michiko's path.

Michiko glared fiercely at Yamayuu Kazuo, knowing that with this guy around, she would never be able to be alone with Zhao Xuan.

Seeing Michiko obediently sit back down, Yamayu Kazuo, like a stubborn rooster, smugly curled the corners of his mouth at Michiko, a smile that was extremely irritating.

Mizuki Uchiyama shook her head, completely baffled as to what had possessed Michiko, who was relentlessly pursuing Zhao Xuan every day.

Just as Mizuki Uchiyama was about to go back, a gunshot suddenly rang out.

Yamayu Kazuo's pupils contracted, he drew his gun, stood up, and ran quickly in the direction Zhao Xuan had gone.

Michiko Sakai hurriedly followed, while Mizuki Uchiyama frowned and immediately drew her gun.

Half a minute later, the three finally arrived.

At this moment, Master Niu was confronting the enemy when Yamayu Kazuo cursed "Baka!" and joined the battle with his gun.

"Zhao Sang, who is this person?"

It turned out that when Master Niu was returning to the sleeper car, he was intercepted by the enemy.

Fortunately, Master Niu has a keen sense of danger; otherwise, he would probably have been taken down by the enemy in the first round.

"I don't know, the other side suddenly opened fire on me."

"There were about four people blocking the way."

Michiko Sakai and Mizuki Uchiyama arrived just in time to hear what Zhao Xuan had said.

Mizuki Uchiyama said with a furrowed brow:
"It seems they're here for the team leader."

Michiko Sakai snorted coldly; in her eyes, the four people opposite her were already corpses.

"Isn't it obvious, Zhao Sang? You're not hurt, are you?"

Master Niu shook his head, gripped his gun, and said in a low voice:
"This can't go on; we must deal with them as soon as possible."

Judging from the weapons the other side was equipped with, Master Niu had roughly determined that the four were members of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

However, Master Niu couldn't understand why those guys from the Military Intelligence Bureau would think of assassinating Zhao Xuan.
According to the instructions from the mountain city, any assassination of the top ten on the list of traitors must be approved by headquarters.

Master Niu knew very well that headquarters could not approve the group from the Shanghai station to assassinate Zhao Xuan unless Zhao Xuan himself requested it.

Zhao Xuan would never do that, so the other party probably had other motives for assassinating him.

In just a few seconds, Master Niu analyzed that something was wrong.

After calming down and reviewing the situation, Master Niu realized that even though he was aware of the danger, he couldn't have dodged all the enemy's bullets without taking any damage.

This can only mean one thing: the other party didn't really want to kill Zhao Xuan!

Having figured this out, Master Niu decided not to kill them all, while the other side seemed to be planning to stall for time as well.

Judging by the time, the next stop is fast approaching. Once the train arrives, the four members of the Military Intelligence Bureau will probably have to retreat.

However, to Master Niu's surprise, as the train began to slow down in preparation for entering the station, the four Kuomintang agents threw grenades directly in their direction.

Seeing the smoking grenade fall, Master Niu's lips twitched violently. He wondered if he had made a mistake, but he acted quickly and grabbed Yamao Kazuo, who was trying to rush forward, and made him lie on the ground.

Seeing this, Mizuki Uchiyama quickly reached out and pulled Michiko Sakai back.

Boom——

The grenade exploded, and the four Kuomintang agents immediately jumped out of the car.

Once the dust had settled, Master Niu shook his head and slowly got up.

After getting up, Yamayu Kazuo glared angrily ahead:

"idiot!"

"Call the train attendant. I need to contact the station's military police. I won't let any of these people go!"

A few minutes later, the train pulled into the station.

Master Niu and his three companions arrived at the military police station at the train station.

Shortly after the call was made, Yamayu Kazuo handed the phone to Zhao Xuan, instructing Zhao Xuan to personally report to Aizawa Keiko.

In Shanghai, in the Special Higher Police Department's office, Osamu Kishimoto was reporting on everything from the moment he first received a call from Kazuo Yamao yesterday until now.

Kishimoto Osamu has now submitted and no longer complains about working under Zhao Xuan. After all, Zhao Xuan's rank is undeniable, and Kishimoto Osamu knows that no matter how hard he tries, he will never catch up with Zhao Xuan in this lifetime.

Of course, it was also because Kishimoto Osamu had seen through things. Although he was working under Zhao Xuan, he was still a deputy section chief. Only if Zhao Xuan was doing well could he be doing well.

Moreover, Kishimoto Osamu discovered that following Zhao Xuan seemed to offer a bright future, since Zhao Xuan had the support of the two families behind Watanabe Kyoko and Aizawa Keiko.

As Zhao Xuan's old subordinate, Kishimoto felt that he had a great future ahead of him.

Therefore, Kishimoto Osamu was very angry at this moment:
"Section Chief, we've confirmed it's the Military Intelligence Bureau. They've gone mad. They've been relentlessly pursuing Section Chief Zhao since Shanghai, trying to assassinate him. So far, he's survived six assassination attempts!"

"Section Chief, this can't go on!" Seeing the change in Kishimoto Osamu's attitude, Aizawa Keiko was also somewhat pleased.

However, after hearing what Kishimoto Osamu said and reading the report, Aizawa Keiko was furious.

Do these Military Intelligence Bureau people really think they're easy to bully?
"How is Ah Xuan doing right now?"

Osamu Kishimoto took a deep breath and said:

“After leaving Nanjing, a team of military police was stationed in the carriage where the section chief was located to protect his safety.”

"However, the Military Intelligence Bureau has not given up. So far, we have found traces of Military Intelligence Bureau agents' activities at various subsequent train stations. They are still relentlessly pursuing the section chief."

"Section Chief, how did Section Chief Zhao offend the Military Intelligence Bureau to warrant such a huge investment in his assassination?"

Lan Zehui shook her head. Logically speaking, the Military Intelligence Bureau shouldn't have acted so irrationally, but the deed was done, and now Lan Zehui only cared about Zhao Xuan's safety.

"Tell the military police at each station to ensure Ah Xuan's safety. Also, those Military Intelligence Bureau agents in Shanghai should pay the price for their actions!"

"Contact Smith in the French Concession and tell him that this time, no matter what, my Special Higher Police will enter the French Concession to conduct a search and arrest operation, whether he agrees or not!"

"Furthermore, Koji Ida has taken so many benefits, so we must show him the sincerity he deserves before he leaves. Otherwise, tell him that he should give back as much as he has taken. I'm going to see my mother right now. Smith and Koji Ida are in your hands."

"Hi!"

Kishimoto Osamu immediately turned and left to contact Smith and Ida Koji.

Having just returned from her mother's place yesterday, Aizawa Keiko never expected to have to seek help again so soon.

However, this time Lan Zehui was really angry. Those people from the Military Intelligence Bureau were simply courting death.

No. 18 Shanyin Road, Hongkou District.

Seeing Aizawa Keiko kneeling in front of the low table, sulking, Watanabe Kyoko sighed with amusement.

"So, Ah Xuan has been under constant assassination attempts by the Military Intelligence Bureau ever since he boarded the train?"

“That’s right, Mother. Those guys from the Military Intelligence Bureau are too arrogant. This time, no matter what, I’m going to take them down and make them pay the price!”

Kyoko Watanabe nodded slightly. Zhao Xuan had already been included in the blueprint for the future development of the family, so Watanabe would not allow anything to happen to him.

"Let Yamaoyuki negotiate with Smith. As for Koji Ida, I'll issue a warning. If he doesn't budge, well!"

"Okay, Mother, I need to go back and prepare now."

Seeing that Aizawa Keiko was about to get up, Watanabe raised his hand to stop her:
"Don't be hasty in your work. This operation against the Military Intelligence Bureau cannot be completed by the Special Higher Police alone. Don't forget, Yamao Kazuo also went to Harbin with Ah Xuan."

“Since we’re going to deal with the Military Intelligence Bureau, let’s not be petty. You go to the original agency and the Mei agency in person. I’ll call and communicate with Yingzuo and Tobima later.”

"With their involvement, there won't be any problems with the Military Police Headquarters. Even if 76 doesn't want to, they have no choice but to get involved. This time, all intelligence agencies in Shanghai will be involved in the operation."

Aizawa Keiko looked at Watanabe in surprise:

"Mother, this..."

Kyoko Watanabe waved her hand:

"Alright, it's decided then. Go see Doi-Yuan and Kagesa to discuss the specifics of the operation."

Aizawa Keiko nodded, knowing that her mother was serious this time.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

After Aizawa Keiko left, Kagura Jinta, who had seen her off, went to Watanabe's room.

"Xingzi, isn't your decision this time too hasty? It's very unreasonable for the Military Intelligence Bureau to do this."

Kyoko Watanabe laughed:

"Kagura, you've noticed the inconsistency too?"

Jinta Kagura asked in surprise:
"Xingzi, do you know what the Military Intelligence Bureau is up to?"

Kyoko Watanabe said with a smile:

"Didn't you realize that if the Military Intelligence Bureau really wanted to kill Zhao Xuan, then their first attack, when the train was about to arrive at Kunshan Station, would have the highest success rate?"

Jinta Kagura nodded:

"Indeed."

Kyoko Watanabe continued with a smile:

"If that's the case, why didn't the Military Intelligence Bureau go all in and commit all its forces directly at the Kunshan station, instead of spreading them out completely like this, as if they were afraid of killing Zhao Xuan!"

Jinta Kagura looked at Watanabe with a somewhat bewildered expression:

"Xingzi, do you mean Zhao Xuan has a problem?"

Kyoko Watanabe's lips twitched slightly, and she gave Jinta Kagura a speechless look:

"Kagura, I don't know if Zhao Xuan has any problems, but even if he does, he's fine here. That's the most important thing, do you understand?"

Now that the family has already invested so many resources in Zhao Xuan, how could they possibly allow him to have problems?

Kagura Jinta understood immediately, nodded, and said:

"What's the point of the Military Intelligence Bureau doing this?"

Kyoko Watanabe's lips curled into a meaningful smile:
"It's simple, they want to get our attention."

Kagura Jinta opened his mouth, then asked, puzzled:

"Xingzi, since you've already seen this, why did you still make that decision? By doing this, aren't you playing right into the hands of the Military Intelligence Bureau?"

Anko Watanabe's eyes gleamed with intelligence as she gave a cold smile and said:
"What do you think could have happened in Shanghai recently that would make the Military Intelligence Bureau take such action?"

After thinking carefully for a while, Kagura Jinta said with shining eyes:
"You mean the peace conference?"

Kyoko Watanabe nodded slightly.

"It's almost the same."

"The Military Intelligence Bureau definitely wants to sabotage the peace conference. So, what will the Military Intelligence Bureau do to sabotage this peace conference?"

Without much thought, Kagura Jinta blurted out:

"Of course, we should blow it up on the day the meeting is held to solve everything, and at the same time, it will serve as a deterrent!"

Hearing this, Kyoko Watanabe smiled brightly:

"Yes, it was blown up. So, where did the Military Intelligence Bureau get the explosives to destroy the entire venue?"

“They can’t get it inside Shanghai, so they can only try to find a way outside Shanghai.”

"If I'm not mistaken, the Military Intelligence Bureau's assassination attempt on Zhao Xuan was actually intended to draw our attention and cause us to make mistakes in certain areas."

"Since they're getting explosives from outside, they'll definitely have to transport them into Shanghai!"
