"This church was built during the Spanish period, and was later taken over by American pastors."

Regarding the history of these ancient buildings in Manila, Kageyama Nosuke is obviously much clearer than Meng Shaoyuan: "American pastors preached here and developed a large number of believers."

"In terms of thinking, we must first control it." Meng Shaoyuan pointed to his head: "Most colonists will first send troops to occupy, and then let their so-called teachings come to the colonies.

They instilled their ideas into the colonies, allowing the colonists to believe that they and the colonists were actually the same. Gradually, their former beliefs were lost.

Decades and hundreds of years later, these colonized people gradually forgot that they were once the masters of this place, and they increasingly identified with their current identity. As a result, this country and this nation were truly destroyed.

Even though his country name is still there, the country now is no longer the country it was in the past."

Even to Kageyama Nosuke's ears, these statements seemed very novel.

"When I first heard it, it seemed a little ridiculous, but when I thought about it carefully, it made sense." Kageyama Nosuke said thoughtfully: "The Western powers also used iron cannons to open the country to preach in Japan. Oda Nobunaga also promoted these foreign sects.

.

But starting from Hashiba Hideyoshi, they vigorously banned foreign sects, and the Tokugawa family even pushed the ban on expelling foreign sects to a peak. Finally, Japan's "Priestless Era" began.

In this sense, Japan has protected its local beliefs and allowed national cohesion to reach a very strong level."

Meng Shaoyuan nodded silently.

Although I don't want to admit it, this is indeed true.

"What about you? What is your belief?" Kageyama Nosuke suddenly asked: "Besides your own country and nation, do you have any other beliefs?"

"Having this belief is enough to follow me for a lifetime." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "I have always said that many years later, when there is peace, if there are still people who remember me, they will definitely not remember my past achievements.

They will say that I am a greedy, lustful, despicable villain. As for the things I have done that I am proud of? They have long been swept into the trash can.

But I know that no matter how shameless or nasty I am, I still have faith, and this faith has never changed from the beginning to the end!"

As he said that, he looked at the church again: "This place must have been very lively before, and everyone believed that their piety could bring happiness and peace to their families.

But it’s useless, a bayonet is enough to shatter all these dreams. Even the so-called Lord can’t stop this place from turning into a battlefield!”

Yes, that's right, this church will be transformed into a military fortress.

More than thirty soldiers from the security forces will be deployed here.

When American soldiers enter, the sound of gunfire will pierce the sound of preaching, and the blood will dye the holy water here red.

Death will be the only theme here.

"Someone has been following us since we left the headquarters." Kageyama Nosuke said calmly: "He followed us all the way here."

"I have noticed it a long time ago." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "The people following us have almost no experience and don't even know how to cover up their whereabouts. They are all novices.

The entire secret service in Manila is controlled by me, and it cannot be my people. Therefore, the person who is targeting us is Fujikura Seijiro! He may have established a new agency."

"Really?" Kageyama Nosuke looked a little careless: "It is very simple to set up a new organization. It is enough to get an office space and recruit some people. But to make it operate normally is not a simple matter."

This is especially true for intelligence agencies.

It is extremely simple to set up a new agency, but to run it smoothly requires a lot of manpower and material support.

"It seems that this new organization was set up specifically for me."

A smile flashed across the corner of Meng Shaoyuan's mouth: "Fujikura Seijiro, he is determined to find me out. In this sense, he is a very good intelligence worker."

"Oh, really?" Kageyama Nosuke was a little surprised: "You still think highly of him?"

"why not?"

Meng Shaoyuan asked: "Why can't we admit that our opponent is excellent? Fujikura Seijiro discovered my doubts. There are only two ways to prove whether I have any problems.

One is that I admit it, which is obviously impossible, because I haven't lived enough after all. The other is that he proves it, and there are only two results.

One is that I am finally proven innocent, and the other is that he finally caught me and exposed my identity. No matter which outcome is, it will be of great benefit to the defense of Manila.

of.

Therefore, in this sense, Fujikura Seijiro is dedicated to his responsibilities and is willing to take on these tasks that are not his for the sake of his friends."

Jingshan Nosuke listened very carefully: "Have you already thought of a way to deal with it?"

He knew very well that "Shibu Taniguchi" must not be exposed.

Once he has a problem, it will not only involve him, but also the teacher.

Almost everyone in Manila knows how close the relationship between "Shibu Taniguchi" and Takuma Shintani is.

"I haven't thought about it yet, really."

Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "But what I am sure of is that Fujikura Seijiro did inappropriate things at an inappropriate time.

If Japan now fully controls the Philippines and does not have to worry about facing the threat of war, his approach will have a great effect. I am even really ready to evacuate.

Under relatively peaceful circumstances, the local authorities concentrated their efforts to assist him in detection and completely eliminate hidden dangers. But now? The situation is completely different.

Manila has fallen into a state of complete anarchy. Iwabuchi's only mission three times is how to completely defend Manila.

He has no manpower or funds to mobilize Fujikura Seijiro, and he is indifferent to this kind of intelligence work. If there is information about the progress of the US military, that is what he cares about most.

And that’s not all, Iwabuchi may not be so close to and trust Fujikura Seijiro three times.”

"Really?" Kageyama Nosuke frowned: "I heard that they have been good friends since childhood."

"If we are friends since childhood, as time goes by, the relationship will gradually deteriorate."

Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "After the initial intimacy slowly fades away, the personality conflicts between the two parties will gradually manifest, eventually leading to conflicts.
