Chapter 1811: Temporary Detention
The assassination of Iwai Asahi immediately caused a big problem in the entire deployment of the Japanese army.
Major General Itaro Tojima, who was clearing the country on the front line, immediately ordered Lieutenant Colonel Nishino Yoshiki to temporarily serve as the highest military commander in Suzhou to ensure the safety of Suzhou City.
At the same time, with the approval of Outojima Itaro, Meng Baifeng was allowed to be temporarily detained.
But, how to deal with this troublesome person?
He is not an ordinary person.
Even in Itaro Toijima's order, "arrest" was not used, but only "seizure" was used!
Meng Baifeng cannot be convicted just by relying on a note left by Iwai Chaoqing.
Especially after considering his special status.
Once this matter cannot be handled properly, it is likely to cause a major turmoil.
After all, the current Nanjing puppet government has great expectations placed on it by Japan.
Nishino Yoshiki was in charge of the military, and Hahara Koichi took the initiative to take on the problems here at Meng Baifeng.
storm?
That is absolutely impossible.
As soon as Haharaguang returned to the scene, he expressed to Meng Baifeng through Pan Fengquan the idea of letting him go in and talk to Meng Baifeng alone.
Pan Fengquan came back not long after he went in to report. He brought good news:
Meng Baifeng agreed to meet him!
Hanbara Koichi was ready to say something, but when he saw Meng Baifeng, before he could say a word, Meng Baifeng had already opened his mouth and said:
"In regard to the matter of detaining Nagashima Kuan, I think I may have gone too far."
Um?
Hikaru Hahara was stunned.
The script doesn’t seem to be like this.
"Mr. Hahara, you are still here for Nagashima Hiroshi this time, right?"
When Meng Baifeng asked this question, Hahara Koichi finally reacted: "Yes, Dean Meng, the detention of a Japanese officer is a very serious matter."
"However, Nagashima Kan went too far." Meng Baifeng said with a serious expression: "He actually openly went to the home of a senior government official to provoke!"
He went on and on about how arrogant and arrogant Nagadao Kuan was at his place, how he bullied himself as the dean, and so on.
Only now did Hahara Hikaru roughly understand what was going on.
"Dean Meng, I'm deeply sorry for Nagashima Hiroshi's reckless behavior." Koichi Hahara sighed: "We will conduct a detailed investigation of the entire incident, but from the perspective of Sino-Japanese friendship, I suggest that you release him first
As wide as Long Island.”
Meng Baifeng unexpectedly said: "Since it is Mr. Yuhara who has come forward, then I agree."
I agree!
Hahara Koichi completely understood.
Meng Baifeng had no intention of harming Chang Daokuan!
Because, through Nagashima Kan, he has sufficient evidence of alibi!
If you want to take action against an official of Meng Baifeng's level, the evidence must be sufficient!
Otherwise, not only will the Nanjing government be outraged, but the Japanese government will never agree.
Unless someone of higher rank on the Japanese side personally intervenes in this matter.
At this point, Koichi Hahara was no longer ready to beat around the bush: "Thank you, Dean Meng. But I have even more bad news to inform you. His Excellency, Commander Iwai Tokiyo, is dead."
"What, he's dead?"
Meng Baifeng had a look of "shock" on his face.
However, Iwai Asahi's death was finally confirmed.
Hikari Hahara nodded: "Currently, the death of your Excellency the Commander is still under investigation, but judging from the evidence discovered so far, it is quite unfavorable to you."
"What, is it bad for me?"
"Yes, because after the death of His Excellency the Commander, a note was found in his safe, which said 'My killer, Meng Baifeng'."
Meng Baifeng fell silent.
After a long while, he finally said: "So, are you here to arrest me now?"
"No." Hanbara Koichi said flatly: "I can't arrest you before getting a higher-level order. However, I must take you back to assist in the investigation."
"Can!"
Meng Baifeng agreed readily, and then he said, "I need to put forward a few conditions."
"You say."
"First, you are not allowed to arrest any of my guards."
"I promise."
"Second, my woman will stay here. At the same time, I will ask Mr. Chen Gongbo's secretary, Miss Mo Guokang, to live with them temporarily."
"I promise."
Hanbara Koichi agreed without hesitation.
All he wants is Meng Baifeng.
"good."
Meng Baifeng called Pan Fengquan in and explained to him, and then called Liya and Ruan Jingyun over: "No one is allowed to approach this building. If you find anyone with evil intentions, shoot!"
"yes!"
Pan Fengquan responded loudly.
He is not worried about Meng Baifeng.
He knew that no matter what happened, Dean Meng had a way to handle it.
Liya and Ruan Jingyun were not worried either.
In their minds, nothing in this world can trap their man!
…
Even after arriving at the Military Police, Koichi Hahara still didn't quite understand why Meng Baifeng agreed to be captured so easily.
Did he have some other conspiracy, or did he really have nothing to do with Iwai Asaaki's death?
"I don't know." Faced with the interrogation, Meng Baifeng said calmly: "You probably also know that when Colonel Iwai Asahi died, I was besieged in that building by more than 30 Japanese agents."
"Yes."
Hahara Koichi then took out a piece of paper: "So, how do you explain this?"
"The one who killed me, Meng Baifeng!"
Meng Baifeng only glanced at it and said, "Mr. Hahara, please give me a piece of paper and a pen."
Koichi Hahara didn't know what he wanted to do, but he still fulfilled his request.
Meng Baifeng wrote a few words on the paper and then handed it to Hahara Koichi.
What is written on it in Japanese is:
"The person who killed me is Koichi Hahara!"
The handwriting is actually almost the same as that written by Iwai Asahi.
"It's just imitating handwriting." Meng Baifeng said calmly: "I can roughly imitate the handwriting after just one glance. If you can give me a little time, I can imitate it exactly the same. Mr. Hahara, you are doing intelligence work, no
You probably don’t know this.”
Hahara Koichi remained silent.
At least up to now, apart from this note, they don't have any evidence related to Meng Baifeng.
But now even the evidence for this note is somewhat weak.
This is not even an interrogation room.
You cannot use an interrogation room to interrogate someone like Meng Baifeng.
No, not interrogating, but asking him something.
For more than two hours, no questions came out of Meng Baifeng's mouth.
Chapter completed!
