Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Gendarmerie.

Kishida was truly shocked.

He dared to guarantee that Ito's killer move had definitely not been approved by a higher level - Suzhou ranked high among the cities in China occupied by the Japanese army. After Japan cut off trade with the international community, the taxes paid by Suzhou were extremely important to Japan!

You have to know that during the Battle of Wuhan, Japan's domestic economy was already in a mess. The wealth accumulated after the Meiji Restoration had been completely consumed after the Battle of Wuhan.

There is no time to update either the quality of the troops or the equipment.

However, the front line at that time did not feel the change, and most of the Japanese officers on the front line still believed that the Japanese army would be invincible.

But it has been four and a half years since the Battle of Wuhan. During these four and a half years, the Japanese officers have felt the obvious changes in logistics and reserve troops.

At this time, the Japanese officers on the front line also began to pay attention to the importance of providing various resources to Japan - in this case, the huge city of Suzhou is extremely precious!
There was no fool in the headquarters who would agree to Ito's plan and risk an epidemic.

Therefore, Ito's plan must have been unapproved - and Ito has been hiding in Suzhou...

"He wants to use me as a scapegoat!"

Although Kishida has always had this worry, at this moment, Kishida thinks this is a foregone conclusion.

Before, there were some subtle extravagant hopes, for example, Ito could defeat Zhang Shihao, or Ito might be kind enough to let him go for the sake of the match between teacher and student.

But now, not anymore!
Ito used the germs from Ishii's troops to plot against Zhang Shihao. Once a large-scale infection and spread occurred, he would definitely use himself as a scapegoat - what kind of scapegoat would not defend himself?
dead!

Only a dead scapegoat won't defend himself!

Kishida gritted his teeth and thought:
Teacher, I have always felt guilty towards you, because I feel that I have calculated against you based on my guesses of possible results, and I am sorry for you.
But...you are unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust!

After justifying his behavior in his mind, Kishida's guilt disappeared without a trace, and he began to think about how to solve the problem.

When his eyes fell on Zhang Anping, his expression gradually became playful.

"Director Shi, you...are…very…wrong!"

Kishida is not stupid. If he were, he would not be an outstanding graduate of the Intelligence Department of the NCO Academy.
If he was stupid, he would not have taken over the Suzhou Gendarmerie and become the number one person in Suzhou's special intelligence system.

So after thinking about it, he instantly realized a possibility:
Shi Hao actually told him this on purpose!

After all, he is an agent, and he faces intrigues and complicated intelligence operations all day long. It would be a joke if Kishida didn't have a bit of cunning.

Zhang Anping was not surprised, nor did he show any embarrassment after being called out. He just said calmly:

"Captain Kishida, I am Chinese after all."

Kishida laughed. He thought Shi Hao’s current remarks were very funny - since you think you are Chinese, then why are you a traitor?

Are you deceiving yourself into thinking that if you work under Mr. Wang or the Nanjing government, you are not a traitor?!

However, he also understood Shi Hao's mentality. Spies and secret agents were indeed very dirty in their methods, but they were not devils after all. After all, lunatics like Ito were only a minority. Shi Hao could serve the Nanjing government without any burden and could recognize the Japanese as his father without any scruples, but he was a Chinese after all. Faced with Ito's crazy calculations, it was not surprising that he had some ulterior motives.

After all, even Shota Kishida would develop "resentment" after discovering Ito's crazy ideas.

"Shi Hao-kun," Kishida changed his address, "what do you think about this?"

Zhang Anping paused and said, "I don't know if it will work, but... in Suzhou, there is a high possibility that something will go wrong."

"Yes, there is a high possibility that something went wrong in Suzhou—"

Kishida sighed: "Although I am not Chinese, I have been staying here since the Empire occupied Suzhou. Suzhou... is like my second hometown."

"I don't want to see my second hometown suffer. I guess Shi Haojun has the same idea as me, right?"

Zhang Anping shook his head: "Captain Kishida, I have actually thought about it for a long time. I thought I could come up with another way that would benefit both sides, but I racked my brains and couldn't come up with a solution."

"So, Captain Kishida, if you have a solution, please let me know."

"I am willing to do my best."

Upon hearing this, Kishida looked at Zhang Anping deeply:

"Since Shi Haojun is so frank, I won't be a mean person. May I ask Shi Haojun, what do you think of Mr. Ito's layout?"

This was the second time Kishida asked this question. Previously he asked:
What do you think about this?

Zhang Anping gave an answer, but he asked again, and went a step further, asking how to view "Teacher Ito's layout."

There was a sense of openness in the conversation, but a sense of tension filled Zhang Anping's whole body.

He was playing with fire - revealing Okawa Hatoshita's identity to Kishida was a matter of playing with fire, and now, the fire exploded with a bang.

Burn yourself?
Or...control this fiercely burning flame in your hand, it all depends on the next answer!

"The person the chief wants to plot against is Zhang Shihao."

"I can spot Captain Okawa and then see the layout of the chief of staff. I think Zhang Shihao can also see it - Captain Kishida, what do you think?"

In response to Zhang Anping's question, Kishida Shota nodded slightly to show his agreement.

In fact, when the Suzhou Military United Front began to secretly investigate Okawa Koshita, he got wind of it and reported it to Ito.

And Ito also said with certainty that Zhang Shihao appeared - although Ito had said the same thing several times before, because of the Military Control Commission's secret investigation of Okawa Yushita, Kishida agreed with Ito's judgment 100% for the first time.

At that time, he thought that Okawa Hatoshita was an agent brought by Ito from Shanghai, and did not think much about it.

"I never underestimated Zhang Shihao. In fact, I studied him a lot because I always thought that one day, I would play against him."

After Zhang Anping laid the groundwork with a sentence, he changed the subject:
“So, when I thought I had a clear idea of ​​the director’s plan, I couldn’t help but wonder one thing:

Is this a deception?
Was it a flaw that the head of the agency revealed on purpose?
The ultimate goal is to make Zhang Shihao think that his killer move is like this."

Zhang Anping stopped talking here.

He did not reveal the "Hell Virus" because it was a secret of the Kwantung Army, and with Shi Hao's identity, he should not know it anyway.

But these words gave Kishida more room for imagination.

He knew that Okawa Hatoshita was an early warning device deliberately prepared by Ito, and he also confirmed the appearance of Zhang Shihao through a secret investigation of Okawa Hatoshita and Ito by the Military Control Commission.

But because of Okawa Hatoshita's identity, he thought of the terrifying "weapons" of Ishii's troops.

But Zhang Anping's words made him see another possibility:
Ito has an even bigger killer move!
A killing move more terrifying than the germs he knew?
Kishida fell into deep thought again.

But he couldn't figure it out. After thinking for a long time, he asked, "Shi Haojun, what exactly do you want to say?"

Zhang Anping shook his head:
"I don't know either - I'm just worried that Chief Ito will come up with a more terrifying killing move."

"After all, he used Captain Okawa as bait, so his killer move must be more powerful than his!"

It is obvious that Kishida does not know the existence of the "Hell Virus".

Otherwise, Zhang Anping's almost naked reminder would definitely make him think of it - but this was also within Zhang Anping's calculations. As long as he planted the seeds in Kishida's mind, as long as Kishida was determined to investigate, with his status as a lieutenant colonel, he might not be able to find out the truth. And the more this happened, the more afraid he would be!
Kishida agreed with Zhang Anping's words, and he simply said:

"Shi Haojun, to tell you the truth, I have never been optimistic about the game between teacher and Zhang Shihao."

Zhang Anping was stunned: "Why?"

Kishida said quietly, "Teacher, I've never won."

Faced with this answer, "Shi Hao" fell silent.

“I’ve always worried about one thing: What happens if the teacher loses again?”

Without waiting for Zhang Anping to answer, Kishida said to himself:

"With Zhang Shihao's layout style, he will not set up a small game. Once he makes a move, it will be a storm!"

"If the teacher loses, Suzhou...will suffer heavy losses."

"You and me, what will happen then?"

Kishida stared at Zhang Anping, and cold sweat oozed from Zhang Anping's forehead. After a long while, he let out a long breath and smiled bitterly:

"I, I've thought about it, but I've never faced it seriously. Perhaps, people are good at deceiving themselves."

Zhang Anping felt very uncomfortable holding back this breath, after all, he was about to break into a cold sweat.

Kishida chose to stop and patted Zhang Anping on the shoulder:

"Shi Haojun, let me visit you tonight."

"Then I will respectfully welcome Captain Kishida."

……

Kishida's honesty with himself kept Zhang Anping on the alert.

The so-called weasel pays a New Year's visit to the chicken - Kishida is a weasel. The more frank he is, the more it means that the other party is not holding back.

"He is probably trying to use me to reveal Ito Masashi's plan."

This was the guess Zhang Anping made to Sister Qian after meeting her.

Sister Qian has already learned about Ito's plan based on Zhang Anping's narration. She is now extremely disappointed - the invaders really have no bottom line!

"Anping, the situation in Suzhou is probably out of control. You should retreat!"

Sister Qian said seriously: "Ito is too vicious. If he uses the 'Hell Virus' to plot against you, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"Sister Qian, I can't retreat." Zhang Anping said in a serious tone: "Once I evacuate, it will involve too much! And the 'Hell Virus' in Ito's hand may be the last virus in the world. No matter what, we have to destroy it. Otherwise, when the Japanese invaders are at their wits' end, they may use this to destroy themselves and the enemy!"

These words made Sister Qian shudder. Zhang Anping's narration and Jiang Sian's information gave her a deep understanding of this virus. Once it was released, it would be a situation even more brutal than the massacre that year!

"Do you have a solution?"

Sister Qian looked at Zhang Anping expectantly.

Ever since Zhang Anping met her, he has been giving her all kinds of surprises. Many impossible things have become possible after Zhang Anping's arrangements.

She hopes Zhang Anping can create another miracle.

Zhang Anping said in a serious tone:

"I think Ito has no intention of destroying himself and the enemy at the moment, so he will not carry the virus with him. He must have hidden it in a place he thinks is the safest."

"This is a serious matter. Given Ito's personality, he won't resort to other people's hands, so the only way is..."

"Keep an eye on Ito, and once you determine the location of the virus, destroy it!"

Sister Qian frowned: "Isn't this difficult to do?"

Ito is not a rookie. It is extremely difficult to follow him, let alone how to force Ito to get checked for the virus?
"Yes, Ito is very cautious. If we rashly force him to check the virus, it will make him alert. We must create the illusion that the breakthrough is not near him."

"We need to prepare for both situations..."

Zhang Anping thought:
"I'm going to start with Okawa Hato;"

"The secret move will start with Kishida!"

"One bright and one dark, to portray our true purpose!"

Sister Qian was a little confused: "What exactly do you want to do?"

"Kishida must be trying to trick me. I guess his method is most likely to frame me for betraying the information about Ito's plan, so as to expose Ito's tactics directly."

Zhang Anping became more and more confident as he spoke:
"So, I plan to strike first and trap Kishida first! I will label Kishida as the mastermind behind the scheme against Ito. Once Kishida is arrested, both he and I will be investigated by Ito. I can use this opportunity to get Okawa Hatoshita!"

Zhang Anping couldn't help but smile when he said this - in later generations, demons and monsters made use of editing to perfection, and a paragraph of positive energy could be edited by them to produce a negative energy effect.

This era has not yet been hit hard by editing technology, and he plans to trick Kishida by using recording editing.

By then, there will be the recording as evidence, and Kishida will probably not be able to clear himself even if he jumps into the Yellow River.

He continued:

"As long as Okawa is in our hands, we can openly leak the information about the 'Hell Virus'. After we catch Okawa, we can also use it as an excuse to create the illusion that the virus has leaked and turn the entire Security Bureau prison into a 'plague center'."

"Ito must be unsure whether Okawa has a backup, or if the plague appears, Ito must be guilty and check the virus in his hands."

Zhang Anping smiled and said: "When the time comes, this disaster can be completely solved, and Ito can be solved at the same time!"

When Sister Qian saw Zhang Anping smile, the tension in her heart relaxed involuntarily.

People who have not been with Zhang Anping would find it difficult to understand the sense of security that Zhang Anping's smile gives to his companions, but Sister Qian knows Zhang Anping best.

After thinking it over again and again, she asked, "Are you in danger?"

Zhang Anping said confidently: "I will distort Kishida's words by editing the recording. With such ironclad evidence as the recording, Ito will not doubt me."

Only then did Sister Qian feel relieved.

"Sister Qian, I have to go back and make preparations. I don't think we will be able to meet in the next few days. Once the Military Control Commission exposes the 'Hell Virus', our comrades must evacuate. Only in this way can Ito believe that Zhang Shihao has evacuated."

"I understand that. Don't worry, I won't let you down when the time comes."

Although the withdrawal of the Suzhou Enemy Work Committee will cause the collapse of the existing intelligence system, this is the price to pay.

And this is the price that Sister Qian is willing to pay! (End of this chapter)
