Chapter 209 Headquarters

The clerk hurried towards the brigade headquarters alone. He needed to deliver the appraisal report from Shigenobu Sasaki to the brigade commander in the shortest possible time.He knew very well that the death investigation reports of these people were not important, what was important was the conclusion that Shigenobu Sasaki said at the end.

This is one or a group of assassins who are good at assassination. Their appearance in Nanjing City is bound to pose a considerable threat to commanders at all levels and government units.As he who had experienced the disastrous defeat after Matsui Iwane was assassinated, he really didn't want to experience the original situation again.

"Hey... Your Excellency, Secretary, please wait for us!" The secretary, who was on his way, suddenly heard a call from not far behind and the sound of Japanese leather shoes. According to the normal reaction, he should have gone back to confirm the situation.However, with a cautious attitude, he dodged and hid behind a corner, took out the southern fourteen-type pistol that was more decorative than practical, and prayed to all the gods and Buddhas he knew After doing it once, he simply pulled the bolt of the weapon.

"Fortunately, the magazine didn't fall off." Looking at the pistol as a whole, the clerk was very grateful.Then, holding his breath, he pointed his gun at the direction of the sound, and he would not go out until their identities were confirmed.And if you find that you are not one of your own, the loaded pistol can also guarantee that you will shoot the attack at the first time.Although, in his heart, he also felt that he was too careful, but he just walked out of the scene of the assassination, no matter how careful he was, he couldn't be too careful.

"Your Excellency, Secretary, we are here to escort you to the brigade headquarters under the order of Instructor Sasaki." The person who came did not make any movements that would cause misunderstanding. He even held his gun behind his back and did not come down. About ten meters away from the clerk, he told him about his mission.

"Escort me back to the headquarters? Then why did Instructor Sasaki send a few of you over after I left???" The clerk was very cautious and asked this question directly.Indeed, at such a time, a few people suddenly came on the way and told you, I am here to take you home. Although he is wearing the same clothes as yourself, it does not mean that he is his own.As a clerk, in his official documents, he often saw reports of his own people pretending to be the Kuomintang army to cause conflicts and create troubles.

"Sorry, we don't know the reason. We just followed orders." The leading soldier replied after a little hesitation.

"Okay, I understand. Since it was sent by Instructor Sasaki, then go to the headquarters with me. After returning, please thank the instructor for his care." After hearing this answer, the clerk was very nervous The mood instantly relaxed.Because, only this answer can prove that this soldier has really accepted the task of escorting him back, not someone else pretending to be it.

If the soldier gave a lot of reasons to prove the authenticity of his mission, it would only prove that what he said was all lies.Because, according to the unspoken rules of the Japanese army, when superiors assign tasks to subordinates, they will not explain the reasons to him at all.In the same way, when Sasaki Shigenobu arranged this task, he would not explain the reason at all, so how could this soldier explain clearly.

The four soldiers who escorted them believed in themselves when they saw the clerk, and when they came out of their hiding place, they also showed surprise smiles on their faces.

･････････････
"Strange, why do you always feel that something has been neglected???" Although he had already made the final conclusion on the deaths of these soldiers and made his own judgment on the murderer, in Sasaki Shigenobu's heart, he always felt that I overlooked a very important thing.

"At the scene, it's normal. The murderer is very sophisticated and basically left no valuable clues. His tactics are fierce, and all his attacks are aimed at the vital parts of the human body. He has a strong ability to hide himself, so he can quietly Silently, approaching them without their attention and attacking."

"And the whole process is very short. There will be a patrol passing by here every 5 minutes, and entering here within 5 minutes and completing the entire process of killing and retreating is an amazing time. He Or how did they do it???" Thinking of this, Sasaki Shigenobu stood up and looked at the surrounding environment.

"This is an intersection, and the distance from the nearest building is about ten meters. Under normal footsteps, it takes ten seconds at most, and running, it takes two seconds at the fastest. But if you want to do it in two seconds If you run to the front, you will definitely make a loud noise. If you don’t make a sound, you can only walk or trot. But in this way, the murderer will definitely be found, so how did he do it?” Looking at the patrol team passing by on the street, this doubt turned in Sasaki's heart again and again.

···································
"The brigade headquarters is ahead. Your mission is over. Thank you very much for your escort. Please go back. By the way, please thank Instructor Sasaki for his arrangement." The clerk pointed to a two-story building not far away. , said to the soldiers who escorted him back.

"Hey, we will definitely bring your thanks to Instructor Sasaki, please rest assured." The leading soldier immediately said to the clerk, expressing that he must be sure to bring his thanks.

"Very well, I'll trouble you then. I'm going in to report. Goodbye." The clerk said goodbye to him, and then he was ready to walk towards the headquarters.

"Um, clerk, please wait a moment. I forgot to tell you something. Instructor Sasaki asked me to bring it to you." The soldier said.

"Ah, what are you talking about? Please tell me, I'm all ears." After hearing what the soldier said, the clerk immediately showed an impatient expression, and then he became serious when he heard Sasaki's explanation. I don't want this soldier to go back and say something bad to Sasaki Shigenobu.

"Instructor Sasaki asked me to tell you that you can die now."

"Nani???" Hearing what the soldier said, the clerk asked what he meant even though he hadn't reacted.only···

"Bah..."
