The secret war is silent

dad.

Liangzi...

The moment they got off the car, Takahashi Toshio and Takahashi Ryoko hugged each other, while Luo Yao, Gong Hui and others stood quietly beside them.

Watching the father and daughter.

After a long time, Takahashi Toshio gently pushed his daughter away, but Takahashi Ryoko visibly struggled, obviously very attached to his father's arms.

She had not seen her father for eight years, and the young face in her memory had turned into the face full of ravines and vicissitudes of life now.

My father was only in his early forties, but now he looked like he had white hair on his temples.

Ryouko, you shouldn't have come to China. Takahashi Toshio stretched out his hand to smooth the hair on his daughter's forehead and sighed.

I want to come. Although I know you are alive, neither my mother nor I know where you are. My classmates also think that I am a child without a father...

Ryoko, daddy, I'm sorry for you. Takahashi Toshio's eyes were red. He was absent from the most important part of his daughter's growth.

Although he has a higher reason, as an Imperial intelligence agent, everything he does is for the Empire.

But now it seems to have become a joke. He was caught and betrayed the empire. He is a sinner.

Dad, they didn't torture you, did they?

Fortunately, it's all over.

Takahashi Ryoko turned to Luo Yao and said, Sir Luo, can I be alone with my father for a while?

Okay, but don't chat too long, don't delay lunch. Luo Yao nodded and warned.

There is no eavesdropping equipment installed in the room. Luo Yao is here. If he wants to listen, there is no need. As long as the room is not a vacuum, it will not be difficult for him at such a close distance.

Takahashi Ryoko's room.

Ryoko, do you live here? Takahashi Toshio and Takahashi Ryoko walked into her room in the guest house.

She has lived here for almost a month, and the furnishings in the room have basically been changed to reflect her own living habits and preferences.

Su Li did not interfere.

As long as she doesn't walk out of the guest house, she can go out. Someone must accompany her, and the area is limited to Shapingba neighborhood.

It can be regarded as restricting a certain amount of freedom.

Yes, Dad, I have lived here since I arrived in the mountain city. Except for the food I am not used to, everything else is fine.

They didn't make things difficult for you? Takahashi Toshio asked.

No, they have been quite polite to me from the beginning to the end. Even if it is shown that I am also a trained agent, it has not changed.

What, Ryoko, you... Takahashi Toshio was shocked. He actually embarked on this path by accident. However, he never thought about letting his daughter follow his own path. Moreover, if a woman becomes an agent, If she has an ordinary appearance, it may not matter, but a beautiful female agent will definitely sacrifice her talent for beauty.

I volunteered. If I didn't have this status, I wouldn't be able to come to China. Even if I could come, I wouldn't be able to reach the mountain city. Takahashi Ryoko said.

Do they know your identity?

I know, Dad, before I came here, I thought my performance could deceive these Chinese people, but later I found out that they are a terrible group of people. Takahashi Ryoko said, They even found someone who looks similar to you. , come to test me, I almost thought that person was you.

Really? Hearing this, Takahashi Toshio was indescribably shocked. He didn't know there were so many stories.

Dad, did they release you, or was this just a meeting arranged? Takahashi Ryoko asked with hopeful eyes.

Dad agreed to cooperate with them, and they restored Dad's freedom.

Dad, you agreed to cooperate with them, why? Takahashi Ryoko asked in shock.

Takahashi Toshio said helplessly: Actually, I have cooperated with them a long time ago. Although it was not my intention, it is true. Dad is not afraid of death, but dad still wants to see you and your mother.

Dad... Takahashi Ryoko burst into tears instantly.

Liangzi, you shouldn't have come to China. It's too dangerous here. You, a girl, can't handle it.

Dad, I have also received strict training. Takahashi Ryoko said unconvinced.

Liangzi, what you see on the training field cannot represent everything. China is a vast country, and its resilience and anti-attack capabilities are beyond what you and I can imagine. Their culture and wisdom have taught us for thousands of years. This is not just the West. It can be defeated in a few decades. Takahashi Toshio said.

Dad, this doesn't sound like what you said. Takahashi Ryoko was surprised. In the impression, his father had never said such a thing.

My identity in Shancheng is the principal of a middle school. In the past eight years, in addition to collecting intelligence, I have done my essential job well. I have read a lot of books, especially the works of ancient Chinese, and I have discovered that, We in Japan have been studying it for thousands of years, but in fact we have only learned a very superficial knowledge. Takahashi Toshio said.

Dad, you don't have to belittle the empire and elevate others like this, right?

In terms of science and technology, education and military, we have indeed surpassed China now, but in terms of cultural heritage, we have lost. Once this country is given a stable and unified regime, our dream of an empire to rule Asia will probably be difficult to realize. ”

is it possible?

I don't know, but at least the current war situation has entered a new stage. Unless their National Government surrenders voluntarily, it is difficult to say what the future situation will be like. As a strategic intelligence agent, Takahashi Toshio is quite keen. Insightful.

Dad, I don't understand this. Anyway, I know that finding you and being with you is enough. Takahashi Ryoko said.

What about your mother? How will she live if she is left alone in Japan? Takahashi Toshio asked.

My mother has saved all the money my father has sent home over the years. Together with some of my savings, it should be able to keep my mother going for a long time. Maybe the war will be over soon? Takahashi Ryoko hopes. said.

Hey, Ryoko, I'm afraid this is not as optimistic as you think. Takahashi Toshio smiled bitterly. Although he is in prison, he still has some understanding of the situation outside, especially these days, the prison does not restrict him from reading newspapers. .

He read all the newspapers available in the prison and had a general understanding of the world situation in the past six months.

In particular, Germany and the Soviet Union signed a non-aggression pact, and then the conflict between Japan and Russia ended. It is estimated that they may also follow Germany's example and sign a non-aggression pact between Japan and the Soviet Union. Then the German army will blitz Poland, and the Soviet army will follow closely behind. Divide Poland.

The world situation was changing so fast that it almost made him feel like he was in another world.

The Eleventh Army launched the Hunan-Kiangxi battle plan and fought for more than a month, resulting in more than 20,000 casualties, although the national army paid a higher price.

But the myth of the Japanese army's continuous victory on the Chinese battlefield was ended, and, according to Takahashi Toshio's understanding.

Even if a non-aggression treaty is signed with Soviet Russia, heavy troops will be stationed in Northern Manchuria. Japan will never give up the land of Manchuria easily.

Naturally, there will not be many Japanese troops used for fighting within the pass, but how many troops are needed to garrison such a large territory?

No wonder the country wants to support a puppet regime in China to fight against the National Government, which is content in a corner.

Next, the national army launched the Winter Offensive and achieved a series of victories. The anti-Japanese sentiment in the country was rising...

Dad, they have prepared lunch. Otherwise, let's go eat first? Takahashi Ryoko suddenly said.

good.

…

Why are you separating me from my father? Haven't you already released him and given him freedom? She strongly objected when she heard that Toshio Takahashi was going to be arranged to live elsewhere and Ryoko Takahashi was excluded.

This is also for the sake of Mr. Takahashi's safety. Luo Yao explained, Miss Liangzi can visit Mr. Takahashi at any time. There is no problem in this.

Why can't we live together? Ryoko Takahashi asked.

I can understand Miss Liangzi's mood, but we will have a series of arrangements for Mr. Takahashi next, so it is really inconvenient for you to live with Mr. Takahashi. Luo Yao continued to explain.

What do you want to do to my dad?

There is no need for Miss Ryoko to know.

... Takahashi Ryoko still wanted to speak, but Takahashi Toshio reached out to stop him, Ryoko, stop talking. In fact, this is very good. You can come and see me at any time, and you can also have your own independent space. Moreover, It’s also good for your safety.”

dad.

Stop talking, I have decided to follow Chief Qin's arrangements. Takahashi Toshio said, This is good for everyone.

People have to bow their heads under the eaves. What's more, he is free now, is he safe?

Once the Japanese intelligence agency knows that he is not dead and is cooperating with the Chinese spy agency Juntong, they will probably kill him at all costs.

If Takahashi Ryoko lived with him, he might also be in danger.

Mr. Gaoqiao's residence still needs to be tidied up, so there is no rush to move there today. Luo Yao said.

Takahashi Toshio said gratefully: Thank you.

You, father and daughter, should not show your identity as Japanese in the mountain city. You should each choose a Chinese name.

Okay, obviously the Chinese name I originally used can no longer be used. There is a word 'Qiao' in my surname, and there is a surname 'Qiao' in the surname. Then my surname will be Qiao. What is my name? Well, my codename is 'Viper', why not call me Qiao Kui?

Qiao Kui, okay.

My father's surname is Qiao, so my surname is Qiao...

Ryoko, you'd better change to another one. We'd better not let people think that they are related. Takahashi Toshio said.

Then my surname is Gao?

It's best if it has nothing to do with the surname 'Takahashi'.

Then what is my last name, Sir Luo? Otherwise, how about I have the same last name as you, 'Luo'? Takahashi Ryoko asked.

This... Luo Yao was stunned, why did it involve me, but Luo was just a surname, and Takahashi Ryoko was just a pseudonym.

Luo Liangzi, how are you?

Everyone shook their heads. Japanese women like to have 子 after their names, but Chinese women don't like it and are not used to it.

Luo Xue.

Kevin, it's a little late, sorry.
