Spy Wars: Return of the Red Luan

Chapter 8 First Contact with Ningji Okamura

All the people who arrived on the evening train on the 14th were important figures, and the first person to get off the train in the second group was General Okamura Yasuji!

Okamura Yasuji: Chinese intelligence officer of the Army General Staff, Army Lieutenant Colonel, and disciple of Aoki Nobuzumi.

This is the authentic last disciple of Aoki Nobuzumi! Although he is only a lieutenant colonel now, Chen Jiehua knows this name, and Chinese people who have not studied history should also know it!

The next person to get off the bus was the head of the Army Academy's Academic Affairs Office, Shinzaburo Mazaki, whom Chen Jiehua had called uncle!

"Be careful to control your emotions in front of General Okamura and Shinzaburo Mazaki!" The system reminds in time!
The system is afraid that this rookie host will lose control of his emotions and ask me to clean up the mess again. This time, I really can't clean up the mess! I can't wipe out this whole group!
After listening to the system's reminder and stabilizing himself for 0.5 seconds, Aoki Qingxuan took the initiative to step forward and greet Mazaki Jinzaburo, "Uncle!"

He controlled his emotions, yet managed to act aggrieved, painful, and helpless! His acting has improved significantly.

Shinzaburo Mazaki observed very carefully and felt Chen Jiehua's emotions and his intention to express his grievances to him. Mazaki liked this kind of closeness very much!
Masaki patted Chen Jiehua's head without saying anything. He looked past Chen Jiehua and greeted Saburo Aoki who came up from behind.

Okamura Yasuji, who got off the car first, was just a small lieutenant colonel. No one introduced him. The Aoki family thought he was an follower of Mazaki Shinzaburo. Seeing him following Mazaki Shinzaburo respectfully, no one paid any attention to him!
Behind them, a group of people surrounded a man in general's uniform and came out of the first carriage!
Kojiro Uchiyama: Japanese Army General, Commander of the Tokyo Bay Fortress.

Shiro Aoki quickly trotted over to meet him.

"Host, you can't get close to the general over there. This Okamura Neiji will be an important figure in the future. You can go up and say hello and invest in him!"

"I know this guy, but taking the initiative to go up to him doesn't fit with my character, right?"

"Just seize the opportunity yourself."

Chen Jiehua watched as Aoki Aoki's uncle Aoki Shiro stepped forward to greet the general, while Mazaki Shinzaburo and Aoki Aoki's father were chatting behind him. Okamura Neiji stood in the cold wind like a passerby, with no one paying attention to him. But now he was the Aoki family member closest to him, so it seemed like now was the best opportunity to speak up?
"What is your name?" (Japanese)

"I am Neiji Okamura, the last disciple of Master Aoki."

"It's Uncle Okamura! Please come in!" Anyway, the title of uncle is always effective in Japan!
At this moment, Chen Jiehua's word "Uncle" sounded like the sound of nature to Okamura Yasuji, who was disheveled in the cold wind!
Successfully connected with General Okamura Yasuji!

The two men rode their horses and followed the group in front of them towards home. After this bus arrived, the next bus would not arrive until after noon tomorrow, so there was no need to leave anyone at the station.

It was already early morning of the next day when everyone returned home. After settling the guests to rest, Chen Jiehua took Okamura Neiji back to his room!

Yes, that's right! Take it back to your room and sleep with me!
There were so many people coming to the house! It was beyond the Aoki family's expectations!
First of all, the Shimazu family, the maiden family of Aoki Aoki’s mother, is a big family in Kyushu. They were very respectful and the head of the family personally led a large group of dozens of people!
Unexpectedly, representatives from the old noble Fujiwara family came. These were unexpected people!
With so many military personnel picked up from the station, there are not enough guest rooms at home!
Along the way, Chen Jiehua and Okamura Ningji had a very pleasant chat, so Chen Jiehua simply took Okamura back to his room and they huddled together for a quick rest.

From the perspective of General Okamura Yasuji at this time, although he had only followed Aoki Nobuzumi for more than three years, he had indeed learned a lot from his master. The title of "closed disciple" was also given by his master himself, and his fellow disciples also recognized it. That was to say, he had entered the Aoki family and was considered one of their own, and he should not be so particular.

What's more, this nephew has a good temper and is easy to talk to. Let's sleep in the same bed! Japan is also a society based on personal relationships. Various forces stick together. The Aoki family was able to rise from a small fishing family on the seashore to the power circle in Japan because of the efforts of Aoki Nobuzumi!
Didn’t you see that even the Fujiwara family sent an official representative? For an old noble family to send a representative is already enough of a show of respect!
With the entire Shimazu family out for the expedition, young Lieutenant Colonel Okamura Yasuji naturally wouldn't complain about not being able to stay in a separate guest room. What's more, he was the grandson of his master and the junior of Lu Shi, so he felt very comfortable calling him uncle all the time!

In fact, the representative from the Fujiwara family was Fumimaro Konoe, who had just joined the House of Peers as a standing member in June 1924!

At that time, under normal circumstances, Konoe Fumimaro's noble status would have allowed him to ignore the funeral of a spy.

Coincidentally, when the news of Aoki Nobuzumi's death came back, Konoe Fumimaro happened to have returned to his hometown to sort out old things and was preparing to return to Tokyo.

Because I still had some spare time while waiting for the train, and considering that Nobujun Aoki had taken care of me during my downfall, I planned to go to Aoki's house to say hello. In fact, it was just a matter of repaying a cause and effect.

When I got there, I found out that Aoki Nobuzumi was dead! So I'll be a good person. Karma will eventually pay off. I won't leave yet!
Next is the Shimazu family. Normally, when a concubine's daughter's father-in-law dies, it would be enough for the direct line of the family to send out a representative. Why would the Shimazu family send out all their forces?

This was mainly due to the status of the Shimazu family at that time! The Shimazu family had already sensed both opportunities and crises.

Although the Shimazu family was a long-established clan of Satsuma, one of the four feudal clans that fell to the shogunate, the last two generations haven't produced any notable figures, especially in the military. Currently, the highest-ranking officer is a lieutenant commander, and that's a technical specialist! Not on the front lines!
Therefore, the Shimazu family was in an awkward position and urgently needed to find a new way out. Upon receiving the news of Aoki Nobuzumi's death, the family immediately agreed and thought about whether they could take advantage of the funeral to build relations with the military. After all, given the status of their relative Aoki Nobuzumi, there would definitely be military leaders attending the funeral.

These are all off-topic. At this time, Aoki Aohara had no time to care about Konoe Fumimaro and his uncle Shimazu family. His uncle, the young lieutenant colonel Okamura, needed to be arranged!

With the help of the system's reminders, Aoki Qingxuan controlled his character while chatting with Okamura Ningji all night long. If they hadn't known that there was a generation difference between them, the two of them would have almost become sworn brothers!

Later, I returned to China through the relationship of General Okamura Yasuji. With this cover identity, I could say that if I told Do-hye that I was a Communist in front of him, he wouldn't believe me! Even if I slapped him twice, he wouldn't believe me!

On the 15th, Aoki Aoki's uncle, Rensuke Isogai, who had just been promoted to lieutenant colonel, arrived.

Rensuke Isogai: A classmate of Neiji Okamura, commander of the 13th Regiment of the Japanese Army, lieutenant colonel.

The days that followed for Qingmu Qingxuan were filled with the repetition of kneeling, returning gifts, and welcoming and seeing off guests.

Okamura Neiji was very low-key accompanying Aoki Seigen. Indeed, his military rank was too low. Apart from Isogai Rensuke who occasionally came to see this classmate and chat for a few minutes, no one else paid attention to him.

On December 12, the General Staff called the Aoki family, notifying Okamura Yasuji to return to the General Staff as soon as possible. He didn't say anything else on the phone, so you can figure it out for yourself!
It was only then that the Aoki family realized that this little-known lieutenant colonel might be an important person!
It's so rude of the family to ignore him for so many days!

Fortunately, that loner seemed to get along well with him, and the two of them were together every day, inseparable, so there was still a chance to make amends!
