Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 3035 Duanwu's Identity Exposed!

"Hahaha!"

Suddenly, a burst of laughter rang out, and yet another person appeared at the conference room door.

The man, dressed in a kimono and over sixty years old, walked in with unhurried steps.

He was slightly overweight, and his face was plastered with a fake smile.

Maruyama, who was closest to the door, looked in the direction of the sound and was immediately filled with surprise. He blurted out, "Uchida?"

Maruyama's voice carried an undisguised surprise.

At this moment, Kujo Miyamoto followed Maruyama's gaze, frowned slightly, and then recognized the other party. This person was none other than the infamous Black Dragon Society leader, Uchida.

Uchida didn't speak, but first chuckled. His laughter was so hearty that it sounded like he had met an old friend he hadn't seen for many years, and he seemed completely harmless.

However, those who know him are well aware that he is a complete hypocrite, a wolf in sheep's clothing. If you easily believe him, you might not even know how you died.

Of course, Kujo Miyamoto was not afraid of him. Even if the Black Dragon Society was powerful, it probably wouldn't dare to harm the Kujo family.

So Kujo Miyamoto asked curiously, "Uchida-kun, what brings you here?"

Onizuka Yumei also turned his gaze to Uchida.

Although he had little contact with Uchida, he had heard many rumors about the old Japanese devil and knew his character well. The old Japanese devil never came to the temple without a reason, so his sudden visit must have some ulterior motive.

Chairman Uchida chuckled as always, the smile seemingly ingrained on his face. He bowed slightly and said, "I've come to help Kujo-kun solve his problems."

As he spoke, he waved his hand gently, and two people dressed in kimonos behind him carried a man whose arms and legs had been broken, slowly walking him in.

The person's face was obscured, as they were completely concealed within a large black robe stained with blood, which appeared particularly glaring under the light.

Her hands and feet were too weak to support her weight, and she could only be dragged along like a lump of mud.

Even so, the woman never uttered a sound of pain.

Kujo Miyamoto looked at the woman being dragged in with surprise, his brows furrowing even more deeply. He asked, "Who is this person? What use is she to you?"

Chairman Uchida chuckled, a hint of smugness in his voice, and said, "This person is quite remarkable. I lost six of my Black Dragon Society's section chiefs in the process of capturing her."

Suddenly, Maruyama realized something, his eyes widened instantly, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Could she be Shadow? The top assassin kept by the Qing imperial family?"

Uchida chuckled, nodded, and said:
"That's right. She wanted to rescue their master, but I got wind of it beforehand. My men poisoned her tea, but she still managed to kill more than thirty of my men thanks to her superior martial arts skills and unwavering will."

"And if I hadn't threatened her master's life, she probably would have fought her way out even while poisoned. This woman is far from simple!"

Kujo Miyamoto was still puzzled after hearing this, and asked in return, "Then why didn't you just kill him? Why send him here?" His eyes revealed a hint of doubt and wariness, not understanding the true purpose of Uchida's smiling tiger.

Chairman Uchida maintained his cheerful demeanor, then whispered in Kujo Miyamoto's ear, "Our Black Dragon Society's intelligence indicates that Shadow has been following that Chinese madman ever since he betrayed the Great Japanese Empire. In other words, both Qi Dabing and Ye Xiuwen are the same person—Duanwu!"

"Humph!"

Kujo Miyamoto sneered and said that he was right, that Qi Dabing was Duanwu.

Kujo Miyamoto countered, "So what does your Black Dragon Society plan to do?"

Uchida laughed, "This shadow and that Danwu have a life-or-death bond. If we spread this news and get Danwu to come to the rescue, I think he'll definitely come back. And where is this? This is Matsubara Town. If he dares to come, with so many Imperial soldiers, even if that Danwu has three heads and six arms, he'll die here, won't he?"

A glint of excitement flashed in Kujo Miyamoto's eyes. His slightly furrowed brows relaxed, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

He patted Uchida on the shoulder and said, "Uchida-kun, you're a real lifesaver! This is a brilliant idea!"

Onizuka Yumei narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Chairman Uchida's plan is ingenious, but that Tango is no ordinary person. How can we easily fall into his trap?"

Maruyama chimed in, "Yes, Onizuka-kun is right. That Tango is not only cunning, but also very skilled in swordsmanship. What's more, he has many men with him. If they all come out, I don't think Matsubara's current defensive forces would be able to stop him!"

Kujou Miyamoto nodded in agreement. He found a chair that wasn't broken from the fall, sat down, and pondered for a moment before saying:
"Onizuka-kun and Maruyama-kun's concerns are not without merit. However, now that we know Dango's identity and have the Shadow as bait, we are not afraid that he will not take the bait."

We could write in the letter that we don't want Duanwu to bring anyone over. Otherwise, we'll just kill Shadow. Perhaps Duanwu will hesitate to act rashly. What do you say?

Chairman Uchida maintained his smiling demeanor and nodded, saying, "Kujo-kun is absolutely right. We'll just send the message to Tango like this, letting him come alone. If we find out he brought others, we'll immediately execute Kage. Moreover, we can lure him here with a martial arts contest. This will also lower his guard."

Onizuka Yumei nodded slightly, then added, "We can also arrange some snipers to wait for Duanwu in suitable positions. If we lose the duel, the snipers will open fire immediately!"

Kujo Miyamoto nodded in agreement.

At this point, Maruyama offered a new suggestion: "We can also use the townspeople as hostages. If Duanwu really comes, we can threaten him with the lives of the people to deter him from making any rash moves. This way, we can subdue him more easily."

Everyone chimed in, constantly refining the plan.

But they overlooked one person, and that person was Shadow.

Although Shadow was poisoned and his limbs were broken, he was still fully conscious.

She would not allow anyone to use her to harm Duanwu.

Without the slightest hesitation, she parted her pearly teeth slightly, then bit down hard, severing her own tongue!

At this moment, the two Japanese soldiers holding Shadow realized what was happening, but it was too late. A large amount of blood gushed from Shadow's mouth.

Uchida was shocked and yelled, "You two idiots! Why didn't you keep an eye on her? Get her to the hospital right now! She has to live!"
