Chapter 454: 403 Command (End of month, seeking monthly votes!)_2

"Did you let Qiu Zhaobin and that Sagan Nobuo talk on the phone?"

Meng Meiling asked.

Jiang Chen nodded.

"He knew that he couldn’t cover up the truth, so he wanted to flee, looking for a place to start a new life with a new identity, cutting off all contacts with everyone. But since his phone was turned off, Sagan Nobuo would definitely become suspicious, so Ye Shao made him call to settle Sagan Nobuo down."

"Yes, we absolutely can’t let these bastards get away, these little Japanese, they never change, always stirring up trouble! Back then, America should have dropped a few more atomic bombs and wiped them all out!"

Meng Jiye clenched his teeth.

It was clear that he truly hated Dongying, and on this point, he was much stronger than many others.

Qiu Zhaobin, or rather, Qing Ye, being Dongyingese and serving his country, was understandable. But now some people have completely forgotten the price their forebears paid for today’s peace. They think they’re on a moral high ground, pointing fingers at compatriots who remember the national shame, trying to showcase their own broad-mindedness and nobility.

Utterly ridiculous.

Ugly and laughable.

Hatred may not need to continue, but history must never be forgotten.

"Mom, what are you doing?"

Shi Qianxi looked puzzled at her mother who suddenly stood up.

Meng Meiling did not explain. She found her bag, took out her phone, and quickly made a call.

"Director Yan, this is Meng Meiling. Go immediately to the Peninsula Izakaya with your men and take control of all the staff there."

Shi Qianxi knew that this Director Yan was a deputy director of the East Sea city bureau.

Meng Meiling didn’t say much, chatted for a few sentences, and then hung up the phone.

"Sis..."

"Mom, if you send the police directly, won’t that startle the snake?"

Shi Qianxi rushed to say, "The manager of this izakaya surely isn’t the top level; there’s bound to be someone behind him. If you catch him, won’t the person behind the scenes be tipped off?"

"It’s still unknown whether we can catch him or not."

"Sis, didn’t Jiang just say..."

"You shouldn’t have let Qiu Zhaobin make that call."

Meng Meiling looked at Jiang Chen, "If they really are spies, with a spy’s sensitivity, Qiu Zhaobin’s phone being off would’ve likely made them sense something was wrong. Making a call now to deliberately reassure them would only have the opposite effect. It’s likely that Sagan Nobuo already knows something has happened to Qiu Zhaobin."

Jiang Chen frowned. After being reminded like this, he felt it made a lot of sense.

Considering the content of the conversation, Sagan Nobuo had just asked one question, and upon receiving the explanation that Qiu Zhaobin’s phone was broken, quickly changed the subject.

Would a spy so easily believe such a simple explanation?

The calmness of the call was the biggest abnormality.

"Aunt Meng, I’m sorry..."

"It’s not your fault. You’re still young, after all."

Jiang Chen was silent.

Indeed.

Compared to someone like Meng Meiling, he still had so much to learn.

"Mom, if they really do run away, what should we do?"

Meng Meiling shook her head.

"Thinking too much now is useless, let’s wait for the police results."

East Sea.

Hongxing Road.

"Beep beep beep..."

Under the astonished gaze of the bystanders, a large number of police cars sped through the night, with vehicles on the street promptly making way.

"Bang bang bang..."

The police cars stopped in front of the normally operating Peninsula Izakaya. Deputy Director Yan, leading the operation, got out of the car and waved his hand.

The solemn-faced officers quickly initiated the operation: some were responsible for cordoning off the area, some rushed into the izakaya, taking control of everyone inside.

Once the situation was under control, Director Yan stepped into the izakaya.

"Director Yan, their manager is not here, and there’s also a server missing."

The customers in the shop, having never experienced such a spectacle, though bewildered, cooperated honestly with the police’s demands and stayed in the designated spots.

"Where’s your manager?"

Director Yan asked a server.

"The manager just went out."

"Where to?"

The server was very nervous.

"I-I don’t know."

"When did he leave?"

"About half an hour ago."

Still one step too late.

Director Yan said with a heavy voice, "Seal this place, take everyone away!"

"He’s gone."

Upon leaving the izakaya, Director Yan immediately returned Meng Meiling’s call.

"According to the staff, he left over half an hour ago, along with a waitress named Meiko. Given such a short time frame, they would not have had the chance to leave East Sea yet. I’ve already called the transportation and aviation departments; if he attempts to leave East Sea, he will definitely be discovered."

"I appreciate it."

"Of course, how is Director Shi faring right now?"

"She’s still unconscious."

"Ah."

With a sigh, Director Yan said, "You must also take care of yourself. I believe that Director Shi will be fine."

After exchanging pleasantries, Meng Meiling hung up the phone.

"Sagan Nobuo has escaped."

"Damn it! These bastards are like rats, truly cunning!"

Meng Jiye cursed.

"Aside from him and a waitress named Meiko, the rest have been detained by the police. They must still be in East Sea given the short time; the police have already launched an all-out blockade, making it difficult for them to escape."

Meiko.

The image of a pale, delicate face flickered in Jiang Chen’s mind; because she wore heavy makeup, he had barely seen her true appearance to this point.

"Sister, I should go back to East Sea. I have to catch these people myself!"

Meng Jiye volunteered eagerly, evidently wanting to redeem himself.

"You and Qian Qian will go back together."

Meng Meiling said.

Shi Qianxi was taken aback, then immediately protested, "Mom, I’m not leaving!"

Although she wanted to catch those responsible, she couldn’t leave her father lying on the hospital bed.

"Staying here in Huainan is pointless now. You are the acting chairperson of Jinhai; the company needs you to take charge. I’ll take care of your father."

Meng Meiling was firm, "You both will leave tomorrow."

Meanwhile.

Red Star Avenue.

In a convenience store diagonally opposite the izakaya, a man and a woman sat beside the glass window, watching as Peninsula Izakaya was sealed off and everyone was taken away in police cars, with steaming oden in front of them.

"Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep"

The police cars drove off one after another.

"I’ve said it before, that guy Omura Qing Ye has betrayed our belief; he should have been eliminated long ago."

The man wearing a duckbill cap said coldly.

"What does he have to do with it? If you hadn’t insisted on this plan, none of this would’ve happened."

The woman beside him retorted sarcastically, "You’re the one who got him into this mess. You better think about how you’ll explain this to the lady."

"His actions have destroyed our long-established operations, and you still defend him? What was wrong with my plan? If he hadn’t been so cowardly, this would never have come to light in China. Don’t forget our first rule of instruction: in situations beyond all hope of salvation, suicide is the most valorous means of showing loyalty."

The woman sneered silently.

"Meiko, don’t forget, if it wasn’t for me rescuing you, you would’ve been arrested by now."

The man turned his head to remind her.

Indeed.

These two were Sagan Nobuo and Meiko.

Surprisingly, they did not frantically flee immediately; they were leisurely sitting in a convenience store just a street away, eating oden.

The police would likely never imagine.

"You’re worried that if I get caught, you won’t be able to escape either, right?"

"No."

Sagan Nobuo shook his head and adjusted the brim of his cap, "I know you’re not like that guy Omura Qing Ye. You’re the most loyal warrior. So now, there’s something else I need you to do."

Meiko frowned.

"Why don’t you do it yourself?"

"No one has seen your true face; you can move more freely than I can."

The words were too righteous.

Obviously.

The police would surely put out an APB for them, and showing one’s face at such times would be exceedingly risky.

"You, too, are a coward!"

Meiko sneered.

Sagan Nobuo was noncommittal, pulling a photo from his coat pocket, "Take her out. Three days from now at midnight, I’ll wait for you at Green Decker] Pier. I’ve made the arrangements; we’ll return to our country together then."

Meiko looked down at the photo, her pupils contracting slightly.

"You don’t need to ask why."

But before she could even speak, a touch of jealousy and coldness crossed Sagan Nobuo’s face.

"This is an order."
