Zhen Lizi drank a mouthful of wine and said: "The main culprit who caught me was my enemy, the Shorty. He is a priest of the Church of the British Mosque. He followed me from Beijing. He has been wandering all over Shanghai and he has a group of people under his command. You will not be able to find him easily. In the future, I will personally settle our grudge with him. Just smash that French Patrol House for me and kill all those barbarian patrolmen. That's enough. "
The two of them said, "Yes! Miss. We will obey. Doing such a thing is a piece of cake for us. " Another person added: "They actually dared to insult our Great Japan Empire's most respected Miss Zhen Lizi. They will definitely not be forgiven! Miss, think more carefully. Who else should have killed him? As long as Miss says so, we must not let him live. " Both of them were good at flattery.
Zhen Lizi didn't like it anymore so he scolded: "Stop saying such big words. I've always been a man of my word. Those things you can do are enough. " Drinking a mouthful of wine, he continued: "I never thought that your Black Dragon Society would be this enormous, that there would be so many ears and eyes, that no one would be afraid of you in Shanghai. "Don't be conceited from now on." The two were left speechless and embarrassed.
The more Zhen Lizi thought about being caught, humiliated, and humiliated, the angrier he got. She could not eat any more. She suddenly pushed the tableware away, spilled the wine, and smashed the tableware on the floor.
Zhen Lizi got up and said, "I'm injured. Go to the doctor and treat me. " When the two people heard this, they didn't know how serious his injuries were and said in panic, "So young miss was injured in your body, we didn't see anything at all. We didn't take good care of you. "Please forgive me!"
The two hastily cleaned up the tableware and took it away. Not long after that, a Japanese doctor was called in. The doctor bowed to Zhen Lizi, and then exchanged a few words with him to check on his injuries. He smeared Red Potion on Zhen Lizi's butt, and also left some medicine for him to eat, then took his leave.
Just as Zhen Lizi was thinking about how to take revenge on Shorty, the two people knocked on the door and said: "Miss, Mr. Tou Shanman is here. He's asking you to go. " Zhen Lizi said: "You guys go out first. I'll be right there. " Zhen Lizi looked in the mirror and modified his face. Then, with his brows furrowed tightly, he sat there and pondered about how to deal with Tou Shanman. After a long while, her face was gentle, she stood up casually and took her hood, then went out to meet Tou Shanman.
By this time, Yijie already understood what was going on. He felt a surge of uneasiness in his heart. All of them had heard what they had said just now. Yijie opened his eyes and looked around the room, thinking: "I nearly lost my life in Patrol House today, and missed the great matter of the general. This female secret service agent had some powerful methods. Today, if I wasn't captured by the Shorty, I wouldn't be able to escape her hands. I have to find a way to get out of here. " As soon as he moved, he felt the world spin around him.
Jiexi said in his heart, "Crap, I can't leave. I don't know if it was that thing that made me or if I was in a hurry to get sick from the fire. My head is spinning and I can't stand up. " Helpless, he thought again, "Fortunately, this time's deception is different from the other time's. That time, spies from Black Dragon Society had planned to capture me. This was the personal matter of the female devil. Either she was interested in my looks or she wanted to use me. She doesn't know what I do. It's a good thing that I know of a spies from Black Dragon Society point after falling here. I will go out and have Gao Jian and his men take it away! " He then calculated how he should deal with Zhen Lizi and leave as soon as possible.
Zhen Lizi came to the back of the house and saw a fat old man with a short stature sitting on a chair, looking like he was meditating and chanting. He wore a kimono, and his face was filled with a murderous aura. His eyes were tightly shut and he remained silent.
Zhen Lizi thought: "So this is the famous Tou Shanman. He was the boss of the Black Ocean Society and controlled the entire Black Dragon Society. In order to develop his career in China, he moved to China to help Japan monopolize China. I heard that he was extremely powerful. Why didn't he move at all when I came in? Probably angry with me. Du Bian massacred the mosque was my order, causing his losses to be great. He invited me to come because he wanted to blame me. This fellow has always been ruthless in his actions. I have to be careful. " Zhen Lizi was afraid and stood at the side silently.
After some time, Tou Shanman then said: "Young miss, please take a seat." Seeing that he had opened his eyes, Zhen Lizi walked up and said: "Good evening, Mr. Boss! Shan Kouzhenlizi was invited to come here and listen to your advice. " Tou Shanman slightly nodded, "Mn, please take a seat!" Zhen Lizi sat on the side. Tou Shanman said: "About Du Bian, don't blame yourself. "With an owner, I don't blame you." He had seen through Zhen Lizi's thoughts.
Zhen Lizi said: "About Du Bian, I am deeply uneasy. Thank you for not taking responsibility. " Tou Shanman said: "I have already heard Yama Takashi's report, and it was all due to Du Bian's mistake, I have already settled this matter."
Zhen Lizi thought: "Other than you, I'm not afraid of you. You are looking for me because you have a request. " Zhen Lizi had a plan in his heart, and he sat down safely. Tou Shanman continued: "When Du Bian created this event, he suffered quite a bit of loss in Black Dragon Society and was exposed quite a bit. The consequences were extremely serious. This caused discontent in various countries. In order to alleviate the unfavorable situation, I have secretly removed some of my men. They've been retrained. In this storm, none of you were implicated or exposed. I admire Miss's leadership skills. You are truly worthy of being a bright pearl of our Great Japan Empire.
Zhen Lizi said: "Thank you, Sir, for your praise. I haven't done enough. " Tou Shanman continued: "The reason I called you out here this time, is to properly contact the people in the Guan Dong Jun. I'll only borrow you for a moment, not for a long time. Then, you still go back to Beijing to do your thing. Do you understand? " Zhen Lizi nodded: "I am willing to accept Mister's orders. If you have anything to say, just say it. "
Tou Shanman continued: "I already knew that young miss was talented and specifically invited you to come. You're the only one who can do the best things I can. You have done a good job, and I will reward you. I will never go back on my word. "
Upon hearing him praise his wish, Zhen Lizi thought to himself: "What he wants me to do must be something dangerous, and definitely not a good job. Otherwise, this cunning and stingy fellow wouldn't be so generous. He definitely wouldn't use this opportunity to indirectly take revenge on me for what happened with Du Bian. If I see a flaw in it, I will firmly refute it. " Thus, Zhen Lizi listened attentively.
Tou Shanman narrowed his eyes and said: "In terms of Miss's looks, wisdom, words, and ability, you are very suitable to handle this matter. I sincerely hope that you will get things done. "
Zhen Lizi was an impatient person, and said: "Sir's praise is a bit too kind. I can't afford it. Please tell me what exactly it is you want to do. " She thought Tou Shanman was too long-winded. Actually, Tou Shanman had his own reasons for doing so. She repeatedly observed Zhen Lizi's words and actions, wanting to truly understand Zhen Lizi's mentality and ability to adapt to situations.
Tou Shanman was satisfied with her, and said: "Our Special Envoy, Mr. Inoue Shizuo, suddenly came to find me from Beijing. He brought a local document. He was supposed to handle matters related to the documents. Unfortunately, he was sick. I'm going to let you take his place, as the Japanese envoy, and handle the paperwork. We have secretly sold a batch of firearms to Cai Songpo in Yunnan. You will go there to handle the transaction with the Yunnan authorities. You must get on good terms with them when you get there. I think I don't have to say much about that. I'm sure Miss will do well. "
So it turned out that Inoue Shizuo was sly and cunning, he purposely claimed that he was sick. He knew that since he had arrived in China, there were many people who hated him from all sides, and he could be assassinated at any moment. He did not dare to go to Yunnan.
On the day that Inoue Shizuo received the official message, he was extremely worried, thinking to himself, "Ever since I came to China, I've known that I wanted to negotiate a contract with Yuan Shikai. There were spies from all over the country, unidentified people, and people who hated me in every way. If I go to Yunnan now, I will be in great danger. The chances of survival are very small. I should still protect my own health and address Tou Shanman as sick, and have him help out with this matter. "
Inoue Shizuo rushed over to Shanghai and told Tou Shanman what had happened. Tou Shanman was willing to participate in this matter. He immediately thought of the appropriate person, Shan Kouzhenlizi. He then told this thought to Inoue Shizuo. Inoue Shizuo approved of Shan Kouzhenlizi handling this matter. Tou Shanman knew that Zhen Lizi was someone from the Guan Dong Jun, hence he shouldn't be moved so easily. He then immediately applied for a loan from the Brigade Shun Guan Dong Jun Secret Service Headquarters. With the permission of the Guan Dong Jun Special Affairs Headquarters, he finally sent an invitation to Zhen Lizi to come to Shanghai. The envoy who didn't expect Tou Shanman to send the message ended up in the hands of the British, leading to the Shorty wanting to take revenge on Zhen Lizi.
Hearing that she was going to Yunnan, Zhen Lizi's face immediately changed, she was startled, and thought that Cai Songpo was a terrifying person. She calmed herself down and asked: "We have a tacit understanding with Yuan Shikai and Duan Qirui, why would we support Cai Songpo? Didn't he know that they were enemies? Who exactly are our friends? "
Tou Shanman thought that she was childish, he shook his head and smiled sinisterly as he explained, "Miss, you are wrong. You haven't grasped our long-term strategy for China at all. If we want to use China to develop our Japanese economy, we have to monopolize it. China is a vast country with a large population and abundant resources. If we want to possess it, let it bow to us. We can't just make one or two Chinese friends. We have to make all kinds of Chinese friends. Let them form factions, contradict each other, divide each other, and never unite. That is how we can achieve our goals. This is the long-term strategy set for us by the late Prime Minister, Mr. Ito Bowen, to conquer China. "
Zhen Lizi said: "How would I not know of this strategy? Right now, the most important thing for us to do is to help Yuan Shikai to establish the Empire of China as soon as possible so that he can keep his promise. To support Cai Songpo at this time, wouldn't that be against our current goal? "
Tou Shanman laughed again: "Miss, you are too childish. How could China build an empire this big? All three or two can be built. We will let Cai Songpo continue to develop. With his place, it will not affect the establishment of the Chinese Empire. We will sign a contract with Yuan Shikai and it will enter into force when the time comes. "
Zhen Lizi came to a realization and thought: "Then not only am I childish, I can also do things more simply than Black Dragon Society. The Sino-foreign Society's special services organization is even more skilled at monopolising China. " Zhen Lizi became serious.
Tou Shanman said again, "Don't be afraid of Cai Songpo. You will not be in any danger in Yunnan. I'll arrange everything for you. You are there on behalf of the Japanese government and a respected guest. You must be welcomed and warmly received. "
Zhen Lizi wanted to refuse, so he said: "Is it appropriate for me to pretend to be the Japanese envoy? Since the Sky Emperor knows about it, he won't be punished? "
Tou Shanman laughed and said: "What do you mean impersonate? This is just a type of change in dealing with Chinese people. Miss doesn't have to worry too much. Furthermore, Cai Songpo was not only using the Fiery Eyes of Truth, how could he tell the difference between the real and fake? He accepted the arms and didn't care about anything else. You can go without worry. "
