Chapter 104 Catch the adulterer
Moreover, when Keiko Aizawa and Jiro Tanaka met, they were just fellow villagers and knew each other very well.

To replenish military supplies for the Osaka League, Keiko Aizawa thought it was outrageous. Even without using the scanning mode and dialysis mode, Zhao Xuan could tell what Keiko Aizawa felt at the time by just looking at her expression.

"Since Director Tanaka said there is none, then there is definitely none. There is no need for him to lie to you."

Aizawa Keiko frowned and asked in confusion:
"What do you mean by that, Zhao Sang?"

After turning an intersection, Zhao Xuan said calmly:

"From your accents, you two should be from the same place, right? Since you are from the same hometown, and he didn't seem distant when he saw you, and he addressed you in a friendly way. Plus, after you asked him, Tanaka Jiro thought about it seriously for a long time, and that showed that he was thinking over and over again."

"So if he answered no, then it's highly likely that there really is no one."

Aizawa Keiko swallowed and smiled with a gleam in her eyes:
“It may be my honor to work with Zhao Sang.”

"You are right. Tanaka-kun and I are from the same hometown, and our families have a very good relationship. There is no reason for him to lie to me."

"But Zhao Sang, where are we going? If I remember correctly, we strayed off the road back to No. 76 when we turned at that intersection just now."

As soon as Keiko Aizawa finished speaking, Zhao Xuan parked the car on Shanyin Road in Hongkou.

Seeing the Yamaguchi-gumi martial arts venue not far away, Keiko Aizawa felt a little nervous.

But what Zhao Xuan said next made Lan Ze Keiko want to beat him up.

"Ms. Keiko, I heard that you Japanese merchants really like to stop by the Xinchunju in front of you."

"As you know, I'm a family man, and it's not appropriate for me to go to that kind of place, so could you trouble Miss Keiko to find out if any of the Japanese businessmen who came recently have any large quantities of goods unloaded at the dock?"

Seeing that Aizawa Keiko's face had turned gloomy, Zhao Xuan remained calm and looked at Aizawa Keiko innocently:

"Ms. Huizi, how come you can't go in and ask questions in your Japanese territory with your status?"

Aizawa Keiko was so angry that her face turned red, and she glared and cursed with her nose venting:

“Red Deer!!!”

After saying that, Keiko Aizawa opened the door and got out of the car, walking towards the street like the wind, with no intention of going towards Xinchunju at all.

Zhao Xuan shrugged and smiled, started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and drove to the open space outside Xinchunju and stopped.

Since Keiko Aizawa is unwilling to go, Zhao Xuan can only sacrifice himself and go himself.

Xinchunju, Zhao Xuan was greeted by the scent of rouge after entering. It took him a few seconds to adapt before he continued walking forward.

Soon, a mama-san wearing heavy makeup, a kimono and wooden clogs came up to us with a big smile on her face:

"【Japanese】Sir, do you have an appointment or are you just here on short notice?"

If it weren't for Edith, Zhao Xuan really wouldn't understand what it meant.

However, Zhao Xuan did not intend to reply in Japanese, and said directly:
"I just decided on a whim. Why don't you want to receive me?"

It is obvious that this mama-san can understand Chinese.

She looked at Zhao Xuan in surprise, then her face turned into joy, and she replied in fluent Chinese:
"Excuse me sir, I thought you were from our country."

"But sir seems to understand what I just said."

Seeing that Zhao Xuan didn't answer, Mama-san smiled and said:

"A visitor is a guest, how can we not welcome him? Sir, is this your first time here? Do you need me to help you arrange it?"

Anyone who can open a store like this must be a very versatile person. Zhao Xuan sighed in his heart and walked forward, with Mama Sang following him in small steps.

"It's up to you to make the arrangements. Are there any private rooms?"

The mama-san's mouth twitched slightly, it seemed that it was her first time here.

"Yes, sir, please follow me."

Mama-san quickened her pace and took Zhao Xuan to the box.

After the scanning mode and dialysis mode were turned on, Edith recorded everything Zhao Xuan saw and the situations in the boxes on both sides.

Zhao Xuan took a quick look and immediately looked away, asking Edith to only show him the information he needed.

Seeing that Mama-san was about to take him into the middle box, Zhao Xuan shook his head and said:

"I don't like noise. Are there any private rooms inside?"

Mama-san's eyes were full of smiles. You came here early in the morning, but you are still embarrassed.

"Yes, sir, please follow me and continue forward."

As he walked along, Zhao Xuan had a clear understanding of the situations of the boxes on both sides of the corridor.

Many businessmen from Japan not only came here to comfort the injured girls of the Empire, but also talked about their respective businesses.

But without exception, even their psychological activities did not mention anything related to the transaction with Shancheng.

It was a wasted trip!
Zhao Xuan was speechless. Now he could only follow Mama-san to the private room to sit for a while and have a meal. It was almost noon anyway.

At the Yamaguchi-gumi martial arts venue, Keiko Aizawa was kneeling on a futon with a frosty face, and next to her was Kazuo Yamao who was wiping a samurai sword.

"Keiko, you don't look well. What happened? Were you isolated in No. 76?"

Keiko Aizawa took a deep breath, looked at Yamao Kazuo and clenched her fists:

"Mr. Shanxiong, send someone to Xinchunju immediately to see what Zhao Xuan is doing in there?"

Yamao Kazuo was so stunned by Keiko Aizawa's words that he even stopped wiping his samurai sword.

"What did you say? Who went to Xinchunju?"

"Zhao Xuan! The person my mother asked me to contact."

Yamao Kazuo's mouth twitched, and after putting down his samurai sword, he hurriedly asked:
"What's the situation? Considering Zhao Sang's personality, would he go to Xinchunju?"

Keiko Aizawa snorted coldly and told what happened after her visit to Jiro Tanaka today.

After listening to this, Yamao Kazuo smiled:

"It is indeed inappropriate for you to go to Xinchunju."

"But Zhao Sang is still trustworthy."

Keiko Aizawa looked at Yamao Kazuo speechlessly:
"Mr. Shanxiong, you and Zhao Xuan have never worked together, so how do you know what kind of person he is?"

"Although I have never worked with him, I have dealt with him behind the scenes a lot. However, I don't think he can find out anything by going to Xinchunju. No one will discuss the things you want to investigate in a place like that."

Keiko Aizawa opened her mouth, as if that was the case, why didn't she react when she was in the car?
Watching Keiko Aizawa quickly get up and walk outside without saying a word, Yamao Kazuo smiled and shook his head, then continued to pick up the samurai sword and wipe it.

At Xinchunju, the mama-san standing at the front desk saw Aizawa Keiko coming in. She was stunned for a moment and then hurried over to greet her:

"You are, Miss Keiko!"

Keiko Aizawa's face didn't look good, and Mama-san felt a little nervous.

With Keiko Aizawa's identity, she shouldn't come to such a place, but she came anyway.

This means that there are either enemy spies hiding in Xinchun House, or they are here to catch someone committing adultery?!

"Where is the Dragon countryman who came half an hour ago? Has he left?"

Mama-san quickly shook her head, he was indeed here to catch someone cheating!
But she also hadn't heard that Keiko Aizawa remarried a Dragon man?

"Mr. Zhao hasn't left yet. I just arranged for him to come out of his box."

"what?!"

"What did you arrange for him? In which box?"

The mama-san was frightened by Keiko Aizawa's excited and angry expression. She hurriedly caught up with Keiko Aizawa and pointed to the box at the end of the corridor.

Keiko Aizawa took a deep breath and walked quickly to the end of the corridor.

Judging from her mother's appreciation for Zhao Xuan and the hints she gave her, if nothing unexpected happens, Zhao Xuan will be the second man in her life.

She would never allow the man who might become her future husband to have fun in such a place. Her Lan Ze family couldn't afford to lose him! As for Zhao Xuan getting married, what did that have to do with her? When the war was won, the Japanese would have their say. How could the small Ding family dare to complain?

But when she walked to the box where Zhao Xuan was and opened the door with a threatening look, she saw Zhao Xuan alone inside, sitting at a low table, drinking sake and eating delicious food, and there was no one else in the box. Keiko Aizawa quickly retracted the foot that had stepped into the box.

When Keiko Aizawa entered Xinchunju, Edith had already reminded Zhao Xuan.

Once someone marked by the scanning mode enters the range that the scanning mode can carry, Edith will give a prompt.

So Zhao Xuan was not surprised that Lan Ze Keiko came here. He just looked up at her and asked:
"Why, you're hungry too, how about eating together? I think the food I ordered is a bit too much."

After realizing that she had misunderstood Zhao Xuan, Aizawa Keiko turned her head to look at the mama-san who was chasing after her, glared at her fiercely, and then walked into the box:
"After I left, I thought you might run into trouble if you came here alone to investigate, so I turned back. I happened to be hungry too, so thank you Zhao Sang for your hospitality!"

After saying that, Aizawa Keiko knelt down naturally and sat opposite Zhao Xuan. Seeing that there was a new set of bowls and chopsticks on the table, Aizawa Keiko looked at Zhao Xuan in surprise:
"You knew I would come back?"

After Zhao Xuan poured a glass of wine for Keiko Aizawa, he didn't answer and continued eating.

Keiko Aizawa waited for a while, and seeing that Zhao Xuan ignored her, she curled her lips slightly, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.

(I didn’t expect the inspections to be so strict recently. Fortunately, the deal with Shancheng was changed temporarily this time, otherwise I would have been in trouble this time.)
(Whether Mrs. Watanabe can lead the Yamaguchi-gumi to surpass the status of the Special Higher Police depends on this time!)
Zhao Xuan, who was just picking up a piece of salmon and dipping it in sauce, paused and quickly switched to scanning mode to capture the source of the sound.

In the next private room, a new Japanese businessman was telling the mama-san about his needs. The mama-san was beaming with joy at hearing all those demands. She repeatedly promised to prepare them for him immediately.

"Hurry up, I just landed this morning. I've been floating in the sea for a few days and it's really hard to endure!"

"Hey! Murano-san, I'll arrange it for you right away. Are we still the same five people as last time, Ozawa, Hata, and Takizawa?"

"Hey, Mama-san, it's worth my frequent visit. Don't worry, I have negotiated a big deal this time. I have arranged everything and there will be a lot of money!"

(Murano Masaki, male, 42 years old, from Osaka, Japan, vice president of the Osaka Chamber of Commerce, responsible for the transportation and trade of materials between Japan and Longguo)

It’s another Osaka person, and today he has caused trouble in Osaka!

But that's true, only people like them can do such a thing.

Sure enough, places like Xinchunju are special areas where intelligence is concentrated.

Zhao Xuan had to admit that he was really lucky.

Zhao Xuan was originally planning to leave after just eating a few bites, but he didn't expect to receive an unexpected surprise.

Just now, Murano mentioned that there were temporary changes to the items traded with Yamashiro.

In addition, he mentioned that the investigation was strict, and later he said that the deal was done.

This proves that what Murano brought this time is not only valuable as a large amount of color-changing ink, but also that Yamashiro is willing to continue trading with him.

Then the answer seems clear.

Recipe for color changing ink!
Moreover, it is a formula that can be used with raw materials that are easily obtained in Shancheng.

From this, it can be seen that Osaka businessmen are very adaptable.

No matter how you check, we can complete the transaction with the other party in the way you least expect.

Also, how is this matter related to Kyoko Watanabe?

Zhao Xuan really couldn't understand.

(Edith, see that briefcase? Dialysis mode activated, scanning continues!)

(Understood, sir!)
(Scanning completed. Scanning results are being generated. The color-changing ink formula has been extracted!)
It turned out to be the recipe, Zhao Xuan was delighted.

But at this moment, Keiko Aizawa suddenly came over and took off Zhao Xuan's glasses.

It turned out that Zhao Xuan had just leaned over the oden and the lenses of his glasses were fogged up.

Zhao Xuan was shocked. If the green code was not still jumping in front of his eyes and the formula of the color-changing ink was not still reflected in his eyes, Zhao Xuan almost raised his hand and snatched the glasses.

Aizawa Keiko took out a handkerchief to help Zhao Xuan wipe his glasses, and said with a smile:

"Zhao Sang, these glasses are quite handsome. They must have been custom-made in Berlin when you were studying abroad, right?"

The corners of Zhao Xuan's mouth twitched slightly, and he could only nod in affirmation.

(Edith, what's going on?)

(Sir, since the first time you put on the glasses and loaded them, all the functions of Edith have been stored in your brain. Sir, don't underestimate the human brain. If it is developed to the extreme, a hundred Ediths are not as good as it. The human brain is the best carrier of Edith.)
(Of course, this transfer storage function can only be used once, which is equivalent to Mr. being the only owner of Edith. Even without the glasses, Mr. can still use Edith's functions, but the nano mode cannot be turned on.)
Zhao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw that Keiko Aizawa was actually going to wear glasses, Zhao Xuan felt like his heart stopped beating for a moment.

(Edith, what would happen if she wore glasses?)

(Please rest assured, sir, Edith will not be displayed unless you authorize it.)
This time, Zhao Xuan was completely relieved.

"Zhao Sang, do you mind if I try on this pair of glasses? I really like this style."

Zhao Xuan chuckled and raised his hand to take back the glasses from Aizawa Keiko:
"Ms. Lan Ze, your behavior is very presumptuous."

Hearing that Zhao Xuan had changed his way of addressing her, Lan Ze Huizi panicked and quickly bowed her head to apologize:

"I'm sorry Zhao Sang, I won't do it again next time."

After putting on his glasses again, Zhao Xuan put down his chopsticks and picked up the napkin on the table to wipe his mouth:
"I'm done eating, Ms. Lan Ze, let's think of other ways and continue investigating the identity information of that businessman."

Aizawa Keiko reluctantly put down the bowl and chopsticks she had just picked up, and smiled awkwardly:
"Zhao Sang, I'm really sorry. I promise I won't do it again."

"So, please call me Huizi, Mr. Zhao. It sounds weird to call me Ms. Lan Ze, and I don't like it either."

(Alas, the task my mother assigned me is too difficult. This guy doesn’t fall for the honey trap at all. He even came to Xinchunju just to eat. I want to complete the task my mother assigned me. What should I do in the future when it is so far away?)

(Forget it, let’s start with the name. Ms. Lan Ze, what an irritating name, so ungentlemanly!)

Listening to Keiko Aizawa's complaints, Zhao Xuan had already stood up.

At the same time, the scanning mode passed through the box and happened to meet the mama-san who was walking in with the injured girls of the empire.

Zhao Xuan walked over, opened the door of the box and walked out, just in time to run into the mama-san and the girls following behind her.

Keiko Lanzawa also quickly stood up and followed Zhao Xuan.

But when they reached the door, Keiko Aizawa, like Zhao Xuan, was stunned.

When she met Zhao Xuan's gaze, Keiko Lanzawa almost got angry to death.

Zhao Xuan's look seemed to be asking, which girl did you order?
After taking a deep breath, Keiko Aizawa said coldly to the mama-san who was bowing to her:
“We didn’t ask for these things!”

Things, this is what Keiko Aizawa calls the injured girls in the empire.

Mama-san shook her head in embarrassment:

"No, Ms. Keiko, they were requested by Murano-san."

"Murano Masaki? He's here too? Oh, but it's not surprising, with a guy like him."

Before Aizawa Keiko finished speaking, the door of the private room next to her was opened, and standing at the door was Murano Masaki:
"What happened?"

"Huh? Aizawa Keiko, you actually come to a place like this?"

"Oh, so you're here to meet a pretty boy privately."

Aizawa Keiko's face darkened, she reached behind her waist and pulled out a Browning pistol, pointing it at Murano Masaki:
"Murano Masaki, you better keep your mouth shut!"

Murano Masaki's face trembled, and he subconsciously took a half step back and quickly smiled:

"It was just a joke, Miss Huizi, please forgive me, but this time I brought a large sum of money to the lady."

Keiko Aizawa's face became even colder. How could such a thing be said in a place like this?
Murano Masaki also realized that he had spoken out of turn, and hurriedly said:

"Sorry, I have something else to do, so I won't disturb Miss Huizi and this gentleman."

After saying that, Murano Masaki quickly gave a wink to the mama-san and quickly retreated back to the box.

When leaving, the mama-san didn't even dare to take the money. She just smiled and sent Zhao Xuan and Aizawa Keiko out the door.

In the Buick sedan, Zhao Xuan was driving thoughtfully, while Aizawa Keiko was sitting in the passenger seat without saying a word.

After a long silence, Keiko Aizawa suddenly said:
"Zhao Sang, if my guess is correct, the person who wants to trade with the Yamashiro side is Murano Masaki. But if it's him, we can't interfere with this matter. Do you understand, Zhao Sang?!"
