Chapter 201 Three Kingdoms and Water Margin
Chapter 201 Three Kingdoms and Water Margin
Niu Saner drove slowly on the not-so-wide road.
Lin Ze looked at the scenery outside and kept thinking in his mind.
It is highly likely that Shimizu Takuno is not taking the opportunity to establish his authority, because this method is not a good way to establish authority. If he wants to establish his own prestige, he should first lead the military police to raid the home of any wealthy businessman. If they are on good terms with him, he will give them benefits. If they are not, he will find fault with them and punish them according to military discipline.
As for consultants like myself, we should win them over first and then use the opportunity of future cooperation to pressure them.
If it's not about establishing authority, then it's about internal audit?
But the problem is, Nimatsu Daisuke had investigated him once before and even reported it to Kitahara Ransuke. Judging from subsequent developments, Kitahara Ransuke had no problem with his trust in him, so why would he agree to another internal audit?
Is there someone higher up pushing this?
As I was thinking, the car arrived at the gendarmerie headquarters.
The military police on patrol at the gate recognized the car and moved the barricades away directly, but Lin Ze still got off the car to register according to the rules, and inevitably gave each of the military police a pack of cigarettes.
Everyone greeted Lin Sang warmly.
"Mr. Lin, I've been very busy lately and haven't seen you much."
"I see you don't want to see me, you want to find a girl!"
"I want to see Lin Sang, and I want to go see the girl with Lin Sang. We haven't tried those tricks you mentioned last time!"
Everyone burst into laughter. Lin Ze waved to them and walked towards the office building.
After entering the office building, Lin Ze went straight to Shimizu Takuno's office.
"Dong dong dong."
"Please come in!"
As soon as he entered the door, Shimizu Takuye was sitting behind the desk holding a book. When he saw Lin Ze come in, he raised his head and stared into his eyes.
"Shimizu-kun, Kitahara-kun called me and said you have something to ask."
Lin Ze's eyes were relaxed yet firm. He kept looking into Shimizu Takuya's eyes. He had no interest in what was on the table or what book he was holding.
Shimizu Takuno breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little disappointed.
He has been working in the Special High School Headquarters since he started working. Unlike those who changed their careers halfway through, like Nimatsu Daisei, Shimizu Takuya is not only very good at investigating all kinds of cases, but is also extremely good at judging whether some people have problems from small details.
If a spy came in and saw him reading something, he would most likely look at him first, then glance at the book he was reading and the things on the table, and then his eyes would return to him.
However, Lin Ze did not look around randomly, maybe he did it on purpose. If he had received professional training, this would be easy to do.
"Ah, it's Lin Sang, thank you for coming. Regarding Schaeffer's case, the headquarters has found some suspicious points and asked us to rewrite a report and submit it. When Schaeffer was arrested, I had not yet arrived at the Counterintelligence Department, so I can only trouble you colleagues who participated in the arrest to help me."
Lin Ze was still looking at him when he said the first few sentences, but later he looked around.
After Qingshui Takuye finished speaking, Lin Ze nodded, "No problem, it's all part of my job... Qingshui-kun also likes Water Margin? I'm a Water Margin fan."
The book that Shimizu Takuno was holding just now was Water Margin, a version published by Shanghai New Culture Publishing House. It has four volumes and is very easy to identify.
Because both the front and back covers feature a picture of Wu Song fighting a tiger.
After hearing this, Shimizu Takuno finally concluded that this Lin-san was indeed as Kitahara-kun said, and there was probably no problem with him.
If he comes in and looks at the documents and books on the table, then there is definitely a problem. If he doesn't look at them at all, then there is also a problem. This is not in line with the normal behavior of a normal person, especially when someone is speaking a long paragraph, it is normal to occasionally look somewhere else.
"Mr. Lin, please take a seat." Shimizu Takuye personally poured a cup of tea and placed it next to Lin Ze, then sat down on the sofa on the other side. "I just started reading it too. This novel is very good and contains a lot of wisdom. Of course, my favorite is still Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which is really wonderful!"
At this point, Shimizu Takuno suddenly changed the subject, "Mr. Lin, have you ever practiced your shooting skills? That day, with so many people chasing and blocking him, Schaeffer almost got away. But you shot him in the leg and managed to catch him without killing him."
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Lin Ze was stunned for a moment. "Qingshui-kun's thinking is really jumping! To be honest, I fired several shots that day. And, I didn't shoot at the leg. As you know, Schaeffer was running at the time. I couldn't aim at all. I could only keep shooting according to his escape trajectory. One of the shots happened to hit Schaeffer's leg. Haha, but don't worry, Qingshui-kun. Later, I tried to find opportunities to practice shooting to avoid delaying things at critical moments."
Shimizu Takuno opened a pack of Aurora brand cigarettes, which were produced by the Manchuria Tobacco Company. The raw materials were Kanto tobacco leaves, which were very easy to smoke. However, there were not many of them on the market. They were the rations issued by the Japanese to officers.
"Lin-san, please smoke."
Lin Ze took it and pulled out a copper-shell gold-plated lighter that he had found from somewhere.
"Qi Shui-kun, would you like one?"
Shimizu Takuye shook his head. "I don't smoke tobacco, and of course, I don't drink alcohol, because it would hurt my brain. Mr. Lin looks like he has a lot of money. This lighter is very beautiful. Is it made of solid stuff?"
Lin Ze shook his head. "I don't know. Maybe he took someone else's while eating."
Shimizu Takuno smiled, "I read some records about the arrest of Schaefer, and I heard that the mailing book with Schaefer's name was found by Gao Sang."
"That's right. Lu Anbang from the Foreign Affairs Office is a friend of Director Gao. We looked up a lot of information at first, but couldn't find this Schaeffer. Later, by chance, Director Gao discovered that we forgot to check the consignment book, and finally found that this Schaeffer was in the German office."
Afterwards, Shimizu Takuye asked some other random questions, and then sent Lin Ze out with a friendly face.
After leaving his office, Lin Ze's expression became serious.
This Shimizu Takuno is not simple!
But what was his purpose in asking so much nonsense?
Can we tell who has a problem just by asking casually and testing the waters?
Just as I was about to leave, I thought, since I was already here, I might as well go visit Kitahara Ransuke.
I knocked on the door and went in, "Kitahara-kun, Shimizu-kun and I are done talking."
I don't know why, but Kitahara Ransuke suddenly felt guilty.
Pretending to be casual, he put the document he was reading aside, looked up and smiled gently: "Ah, it's Lin-san, you came here so soon. It's just a normal conversation, there's no need to be so anxious."
"Everything Kitahara-kun asks me to do is handled on an expedited basis."
Kitahara Ransuke opened his mouth. Damn it! This guilt is even stronger!
