Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 45

The two spies who bet on Qian Xiaobao's entry and Saito Tsunechi were stunned.

They have lived for so many years and have never seen Qian Xiaobao like this.

Could it be that this kid is really a man of great background?
Saito Tsunechi thought about it in his mind.He felt that senior Kono Harue had never personally arranged such specific affairs for a person, especially a Manchurian.

It seems that this kid is indeed someone Senior Kono favors.

But when Saito Hengqi looked Qian Xiaobao up and down, he frowned.

He looked at Qian Xiaobao's expensive outfit from head to toe and couldn't help shaking his head.

Those who do intelligence work should not make such a publicity, this is basic common sense.But the person in front of him didn't seem to understand this truth.

"Go and call Qin Yulu here." Saito said to a spy.

After a while, Qin Yulu walked in like a gust of wind.

"This is the man I told you about. Send him to the French consulate today." Saito Koshichi said.

Qin Yulu nodded hastily.He heard a trace of solemnity in Saito's words.It seemed that he had to take this kid in front of him who looked like a rich man seriously.

After the founding of Manchukuo, there were also many people with deep backgrounds who put their children into various lucrative yamen.

But I have never heard of people being sent to intelligence agencies.

Qin Yulu took Qian Xiaobao out of Saito Koshichi's office and asked with a smile, "Where are you from, little brother? I don't think I've seen you in Harbin before."

He wanted to find out the details of Qian Xiaobao as soon as possible.

"I'm just a poor boy from other places, how do you know me?" Qian Xiaobao replied.People who tell the truth and lie are like Qian Xiaobao.

Qin Yulu naturally wouldn't believe what Qian Xiaobao said.

"These leather shoes, this suit, and this tie clip look like they are all foreign products. It shouldn't be a waste of money, right?" Qin Yulu asked with a smile.

"All these were bought and given to me before Young Master Guan invited me to dinner last night." Qian Xiaobao replied.

There are many people with the surname Guan in Harbin Special City, but there is only one Mr. Guan, the son of Director Guan of the Taxation Bureau.

If you can know Guan Xiaoye, you will be no ordinary person.However, Qin Yulu still wanted to quietly use his subordinates to investigate secretly.

Qin Yulu changed into casual clothes and took Qian Xiaobao out of the Security Bureau to meet Lao Qian.

The Security Bureau has rented many houses outside for secret work.Even interrogations and mail checks are outside.

Things like this kind of meeting can't recruit Lao Qian to the Security Bureau.

When Qin Yulu took Qian Xiaobao to meet Lao Qian, Mr. Genet, the consul at the French Consulate on Longjiang Street, had just woken up.

He walked out of the bedroom in his pajamas and walked into the large living room.

By this time the maid had already cleaned the entire room.All places are spotless.

There is only one place they never clean.That is a high table on the wall facing the door of the living room.On top of the high table stands a bust of Napoleon half the height of a man.

M. Genet forbade his servants to touch the statue.The statue is cleaned by himself every day.

Today is also the same as before.Mr. Genet took out a handkerchief from his pocket and carefully wiped the dust off the statue, regardless of whether the dust really existed.

This small French consulate was established in [-].At that time, a number of countries including the United Kingdom, the United States, and France established consulates in Harbin.At that time, there were dozens of expatriates from their country in Harbin, and only a few people.The main reason for these countries to establish consulates here is not for the expatriates but for the important location of Northeast China, especially Harbin.

In addition to Mr. Genet, there is a first secretary and a second secretary in the entire French consulate.All that was left were a few Chinese employees including translators.

Madame Genet was in charge of the servants and the trivial matters of life.Of course, she only pays attention to whether the servants do their jobs well, and whether the food they buy is fresh or not.

Madame Genet was not too concerned about money matters.Because it is detrimental to the dignity of the nobility to care about money.

Madame Genet is concentrating on writing the menu.She will hold a large reception in the French Consulate three days later and invite consuls and other important figures from various consulates in Harbin to attend.

The required dishes can be prepared and delivered by major western restaurants in Harbin at that time.Various types of wine and flowers need to be purchased in advance.

Mrs. Genet handed over a dozen already written invitations to Zhang Lixing, the interpreter, for him to deliver to each consulate.

In addition to large consulates such as Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union and Germany, small consulates such as Denmark, Lithuania, Latvia, Czech Republic, Hungary and Portugal should also be sent.

When Mrs. Genet handed over the repeatedly revised menu to the old money responsible for the purchase, she couldn't find anyone anyway.

Lao Qian was meeting Qin Yulu and Qian Xiaobao at this time.

Old Qian looked at fifteen or sixteen-year-old Qian Xiaobao suspiciously.This is the person sent from the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army?
Lao Qian turned his head to look at Qin Yulu, wanting to meet his eyes.Did you use the method discussed yesterday to trick the kid in front of you once and tell him to get out of here?

But Qin Yulu lowered his head and didn't look at the old money.

"I will follow Old Uncle Qian from now on, and please take care of Old Uncle Qian." Qian Xiaobao said with a smile.

He has been in the world since he was a child, and he is much more naughty than his age.

"I still want to take you to see Mrs. Genet. The French are very picky, and I can only keep you if they nod." Old Qian said.

"Okay, you take him to get acquainted with him for a while first." Qin Yulu said.Laoqian represents money, and Qian Xiaobao represents background.Qin Yulu finally chose money.

Even if Major Saito blamed him in the end, he could still put the blame on Lao Qian.

Old Qian reluctantly took Qian Xiaobao along the street towards the direction of the French consulate.

A disgusting smell of sweat wafted from the corner.

The two turned their heads at the same time and saw a beggar lying in a corner basking in the sun.There was a broken bowl beside him, and there should be unfinished food in the bowl.But now nothing could be seen because of the thick layer of flies buzzing on it.

"Die!" Old Qian cursed in disgust.

"This manpower is big enough." Qian Xiaobao said puzzled.He seemed to have encountered some unsolvable problem.

Madame Genet suppressed her dissatisfaction with the old money and still smiled.This is the demeanor that a gentleman should have.

She handed the menu to the translator Zhang Lixing and asked him to hand it over to Lao Qian.

"Everything on this must be ready before the day after tomorrow." Madame Genet said to Lao Qian.

Zhang Lixing translated French into Chinese for Lao Qian.

Old Qian hurriedly smiled and nodded, then pointed to Qian Xiaobao and said, "Sometimes I am really overwhelmed and want to find a helper. What do you think of him, madam? If not, I will get another one."

Zhang Lixing translated Lao Qian's words to Madame Genet.

Madame Genet turned her head to look at Qian Xiaobao, who had oily hair and a suit and leather shoes.

Qian Xiaobao hurriedly took two steps forward, put one hand on his chest and slightly bent over, saying, "Hello, Darling!"
