Chapter 123 No Gold Bars, and Slapped Again

Li Qun hurriedly came out of the office, picked up the box of gold bars given by Yuan Cheng's wife Pang Juan, and prepared to run to the interrogation room, but he ran into Ryosuke Hihara, Ichiro Sato, and Keiko Tanaka who came in a hurry.

"What are you doing?" asked Ryosuke Hihara, looking at Li Qun, who still had a bright red slap mark on his face.

Ichiro Sato's eyes were fixed on the box in Li Qun's hand. He knew that there must be gold bars inside.

Even Keiko Tanaka looked at the box with shining eyes, estimating the number of gold bars inside.

There must be at least twenty or thirty of them!

Before Li Qun could explain, Hato Eiji came over angrily, snatched the box from Li Qun's hand, and opened it in public with a "pop". Sure enough, there were golden bars inside.

This blinded everyone present. Apart from the gold bars, nothing else could be seen.

Especially Ichiro Sato, his eyes almost popped out, and he just wanted to take the golden bars for himself.

Hato Eiji counted the gold bars and found exactly thirty large yellow croakers. Then he closed the box with a "snap" and picked it up in his hand.

Everyone then withdrew their gazes and looked at Hatō Eiji.

Ichiro Sato rubbed his eyes, feeling a pain as if his eyeballs had been pinched by a box.

"What is going on?" asked Ryosuke Hihara, looking at Eiji Hatō.

Hearing this, Hatten Eiji glared at Li Qun again and cursed, "You bastard, you are always causing trouble, open the door, and let's talk inside."

In fact, when Hatō Eiji saw the big yellow croaker, the anger in his heart had been half extinguished, and he no longer got angry at Hihara Ryosuke, Sato Ichiro, and Tanaka Keiko.

Although the Ume Agency, the Special High Police, and the Military Police are all independent of each other, as far as the secret agencies are concerned, the Consulate in Shanghai is also a leader. If they start to get angry, not to mention the Special High Police, even Ryosuke Hihara and Ichiro Sato will have to listen obediently.

Li Qun bowed to Hatano Eiji and replied, "Ha Yi!"

Then he opened the office door and walked in.

Soon after, Hatō Eiji, Hihara Ryosuke, Sato Ichiro, and Tanaka Keiko also walked into Li Qun's office.

Kumagawa Daiki, Kunitake Xiang and Jiang Yifan also wanted to follow in, but were stopped by two guards of Hatano Eiji: "Don't follow in."

After saying that, a guard closed the office door.

Isn't he just a consular guard? What's so great about that?

Kumagawa Daiki cursed in his heart and turned to the side.

Seeing this, Bang Wuxiang, Jiang Yifan, Zang Daoyang and Wang Dongkui also tactfully left Li Qun's door.

"Hatō-kun! Tell us quickly, what is going on?" Hihara Ryosuke personally poured a cup of tea, placed it in front of Hatō Eiji, and asked again.

Hatano Eiji was not polite. He took a sip of the teacup and calmed down his anger before speaking:

"Yuan Cheng is an agent I have trained for many years. He received three years of training in Japan alone and is fluent in Japanese, Chinese, and English. He also has a big boss status in the Shanghai Green Gang and is a rare talent. This time when the Shanghai station was rebuilt, Boss Dai from the Military Control Commission wanted an agent who was fluent in Japanese. He happened to be introduced by Green Gang boss Du Yunqing and joined the Chinese Military Control Commission Shanghai Station and became the captain of the first action team. Since he had just joined the Military Control Commission Shanghai Station, I asked him to stay silent for a while and work hard to gain the trust of Boss Dai."

At this point, Hatten Eiji looked at Li Qun and wanted to get angry, but he still forced himself to pick up the teacup, drank a sip of tea, suppressed his anger, and then spoke again:

"But what I didn't expect was that the Imperial Japanese Navy increased its ammunition reserves and has been solving the safety issues of the docks and ammunition depots during this period. I didn't expect that the Chinese Military Intelligence Bureau was so eager to launch an assassination operation against No. 76 when the Shanghai station was not yet fully established."

"I didn't even know Yuan Cheng's superiors and contact information, but you arrested him. You know, he was an agent personally developed by Boss Dai, and he would definitely be able to obtain important intelligence in the future, but you ruined him just like that. It really makes me feel heartbroken!"

Having said that, Hatano Eiji pounded the table hard with his fists to express his anger.

"So that's how it is! The flood really washed away the Dragon King Temple, and family members no longer recognize each other!" Hihara Ryosuke said with deep regret.

"But, Hatano-kun, why did Yuan Cheng come to assassinate Li Qun when the station chief and deputy station chief of Shanghai Station had already been arrested? Didn't you pass the information to Yuan Cheng?"

Keiko Tanaka looked at Hatō Eiji and asked the question in her mind.

"You still have the nerve to ask me, after destroying the Shanghai station, did anyone of yours inform the consulate? Besides, if he knew, would he fall into the trap? Was there anything wrong with him following the orders of the station chief of the Shanghai station without knowing the situation?" Hatō Eiji asked angrily, staring at Tanaka Keiko.

Keiko Tanaka was speechless.

"Then he couldn't have assassinated Li Qun even though he knew that he was from the Empire of Japan?" Sato Ichiro also looked at Hatto Eiji and questioned.

"Which eye did you see Yuan Cheng assassinating Li Qun? Did he pull out a gun? Did he shoot? Was Li Qun injured?" When Hato Eiji heard what Sato Ichiro said, he retorted with anger in his eyes.

Ichiro Sato was also speechless.

"So how does Consul Hatano plan to arrange Yuan Cheng's next work?" asked Ryosuke Hihara, looking at Hatano Eiji.

"This is the consulate's business. Your Mei Agency has no right to interfere. You should discipline this greedy Director Li. Please don't let him become the second Ma Sibao! Goodbye!"

After saying this, Hatano Eiji opened the door and left, carrying the box full of gold bars.

This made the people in the room look at each other in confusion.

When Sato Ichiro saw Hato Eiji leave, he closed the door and looked at Li Qun and asked directly: "Mr. Li! What's going on with these thirty large yellow croakers?"

Hearing this, even the head of the Ume Agency, Ryosuke Hihara, looked straight at Li Qun.

Li Qun felt so bitter. Not only did he not get a single special gold bar, but he was also slapped four times by Hatano Eiji. Now he was going to be the target of public criticism.

If I were suspected by these guys, I wouldn't be able to explain myself even if I had a hundred mouths!

However, Li Qun still told the truth.

"Have you discussed such an important matter with Daiki Kumagawa?" asked Ryosuke Hihara with a bad look on his face.

Upon hearing this, Ichiro Sato and Keiko Tanaka both focused their eyes on Li Qun.
